My Yandere Wives are Transcendents-Chapter 225: I am sorry, Lilith
Eli looked at Zera and asked with a bewildered tone,
"What?"
"M-Mother is scary, Papa!" Zera exclaimed with a grim face. She squirmed as Adriana loosened her grip on her, and soon Zera ran behind Eli, hugging him like a frightened cat.
"M-Mother is scary, Papa! W-We should run away" Zera urged, pulling Eli behind her, indicating that they should escape.
Eli felt utterly lost, "S-She is your mother?" he asked with hesitation.
"Scary Mother" Zera affirmed with a solemn nod.
"And she?" Eli pointed to Adriana, who realized her mistake and facepalmed herself.
"Good mother?" Zera tilted her head as if she couldn't quite decide whether Adriana was good or not.
"..." Eli glanced back and forth between Adriana and Lilith.
"Two mothers?" Eli asked.
"Yes, it's weird how Zera has two mothers" Zera mused, folding her arms under her chest as if pondering the intricacies of her family dynamics...she looked adorable now.
Eli's hand trembled; he never thought he would ask this, but now...hearing those words, Eli didn't have any other choice, With trembling hands, Eli asked, "Did you two--"
""NO!!''" Before Eli could finish his words, both ladies answered simultaneously.
Adriana and Lilith's faces flustered.
'Crack, Crack'
Scylla, who had been maintaining her 'Timeless Barrier' around everyone in the house, felt a slight crack appear on her barrier before healing itself, 'Well, I guess it will take some time to withstand her pressure'.
"Papa, M-Mothers are angry!" Zera said with a frightened face.
For the first time, Eli found Zera cute.
Shaking his head, Eli was about to calm her down when,
"Who told you he is your father?" Lilith asked with an indifferent tone.
"!!!" Zera flinched and shirked behind Eli.
"Zera?" Lilith pressed as she stood before Eli, who was obviously blocking her.
"M-Mom 'hic' Mom told me, Pa-Papa is going be Papa 'hic' for me, Mother" Zera said, pointing to Adriana while crying.
Adriana shot a deadly glare at Zera before looking at Lilith, who simply regarded her with emotionless eyes.
However,
Adriana didn't back down; instead, she also stared at Lilith with emotionless eyes.....She had decided to confront her directly.
A tense and dangerous atmosphere hung between Lilith and Adriana as they stood facing each other...
'gulp'
Scylla gulped when she felt her barrier constantly breaking apart and repairing itself, seemingly foretelling everything that was about to happen.
"M-Mia, W-We should leave now" Scylla tried to call Mia.
But her words never reached Mia's ears as she observed the unfolding scene with nervous curiosity. The one thing she knew was, 'My big brother is really famous...ah,' as she felt a hint of pride as well as...anger and Jealousy. However, facing reality, she was just a bug in front of these monsters.
If she wanted to protect her big brother, she knew she had to work hard, as every other bitch seemed to fawn over him. Though, she wouldn't mind Lilith; her big sister said Lilith was the one who saved her and a powerful woman capable of protecting her big brother from any danger.....'She is useful' Mia thought and So, Mia controlled herself to accept that woman.
"P-Papa?" Zera called Eli with a frightened face as she rubbed her tired eyes. Eli gently patted her before moving towards Lilith and hugged her from behind.
"Huh?" Lilith snapped out, "Darling?"
"You don't have much time" Eli said, pointing to Lilith's bracelet, which had almost changed into a dark colour.
"Oh?" Lilith realized and suddenly disappeared along with Eli, leaving behind an echo of their presence....along with a cat who had a bewildered expression.
"W-Why am I here~Nya?" Kitty Anna muttered as she couldn't believe what just happened, 'I was definitely looking at the cocoon...'.
The tense atmosphere dissipated, leaving Mia, Scylla, Adriana, and Zera in the Living Area.
"P-Pa..pa? Whe...whr----sssnnnnnzzzz" Zera called out, but soon, 'Thud,' she fell down.....not on the floor, but into Adriana's embrace. Adriana swiftly arrived when Zera suddenly fainted.
"Is she fine?" Mia asked with a worried face, her eyes darting between Zera and Adriana.
"She just fell asleep... Must be tired" Adriana said, looking at her daughter, who had almost wreaked havoc in the house and was now sleeping peacefully, oblivious to the chaos she caused.
"sssnnnnoooorrrrrrr"
"Tired!! We are the ones who tried more than her" Scylla said with a tired tone; she didn't know how many times she had used her spell. Her mana was almost depleted now, a fact evident in the weariness of her gaze.
"...." Adriana didn't say anything to Scylla, feeling a little tired herself from handling a lively child.
While Adriana and the others decided to rest, Eli and Lilith stood in front of a red cocoon placed on Eli's bed.
The room exuded an eerie aura as if the cocoon would break at any time.
Eli was fascinated by the crimson cocoon, drawn to it as if an invisible force guided him.
"So, she awakened her succubus bloodline... ah" Eli muttered as he carefully touched the cocoon, 'That's unexpected. I only thought, with my blood composition, there was only a 10% chance of stimulating her dormant succubus bloodline.... Is my blood really having something else?' Eli pondered, his mind lost in a labyrinth of thoughts.
Lilith stood there, observing her husband....Numerous thoughts ran through her mind before she called him, "Darling".
"Huh?" Eli snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Lilith, who was pouting, a playful glint in her eyes.
"Where did you go?" Eli asked, if Lilith were to present then nothing would happen to Zera.
"...Well, I went to clean?" Lilith said with a confused expression while averting her eyes and looking at him.
Seeing this, Eli thought Lilith was angry for leaving her suddenly.
"I am sorry" With an apologetic smile, Eli hugged her, sensing an unspoken understanding between them, and kissed her lips before looking at her warmly.
"So, how was your date?" Lilith asked nonchalantly, but her eyes betrayed a hint of curiosity and....amusement?
"...." Seeing her pouting lips, Eli wanted to tease her, "Well, it was really good. I went on a date with two beautiful women and had a... threesome".
"...."
"Oh? I see...." Lilith raised her eyebrow, noticing her husband's playful lie. As a good wife, she showed visible anger.
"Hmm, Hmmm" Eli nodded in satisfaction.
"Well, if you asked me and Adriana, we could do that" Lilith casually remarked, injecting a subtle flirtatious tone into her words, however, there was no way she would allow another woman into their love-making nest.
"!!!" Eli showed a shocked expression before looking at Lilith weirdly, he just joked about the threesome however, hearing her agreeing with him and connecting the previous incident, Eli couldn't help but ask with hesitation, "S-So you guys are--"
Seeing his awkward face, Lilith realized what he was going to ask. Without letting him finish, Lilith said with a red face, "I-I was just joking, and as I said before, Adriana and I are not like that. There is no way I am letting another woman into our lovemaking....
Don't forget, there won't be any threesome for you" Lilith said solemnly, a mix of embarrassment and a touch of disgust appeared on her face.
"Oh? Why is that? I just did it before, though?" Eli rubbed his chin and asked with a questioning gaze asking about his fake 'Threesome'.
"'Snort' I knew my husband wouldn't leave me for any 'lame date' and some other women when your thoughts filled by me.
Most importantly, Those two Adriana and Scylla are just like me, and there is no way they are going to allow another woman into their nest.....so don't expect more than ne--"
"~chu~"
Eli suddenly kissed her lips, a spontaneous gesture of love and reassurance.
He said warmly, "I love you and.... Thank you for accepting them"
The room seemed to glow with a soft warmth, their connection strengthened by the unspoken understanding between them.
"Heheh...ahem, 'snort'
What can I do? My incorrigible husband seems to have mastered the art of seduction" Lilith said with fake anger, a playful glint in her eyes, 'There is no need to Thank me.....Because I know, even after Your first wife's death, you still hold 'her' in your heart' she thought as she really wanted to see Eli's first wife and wanted to show that woman, her beloved ring.
"Hahah... Well, I cannot object to that" Eli laughed and thought, 'That's what 'She' carved into me' Eli mused, casting a fleeting glance into the depths of his memories.
Lilith 'unconsciously' heard Eli's thoughts and frowned inwardly, ''She' Is he thinking about his first wife? If so, then why did she make him a playboy? For what reason?.....No, more importantly, why does he want to make many women fall in love with him?' Lilith wondered inwardly, recalling her investigation of her husband during his stay in Division 1.
She wanted to dig deeper, "I am sure someone must have trained you like this. They must be some kind of specialist, right?"
"Oh, that's a correct guess....." Eli smiled and simply asked back, "So, what about Zera?"
Seeing her husband changing the subject, Lilith sighed, thinking her husband was a really tricky one, and said, "Ask Adriana; she is the one responsible for everything".
"Hmm...Okay then" Eli nodded.
"Darling?" Lilith's demeanour shifted, a subtle tremor in her voice as her gaze lingered on the crimson cocoon.
"Yes, Dear?"
"...Awakening someone's bloodline is not easy, and just by drinking someone's blood, there is no way such a thing I have seen ever in my life...." Lilith touched Eli's cheek delicately, her fingers conveying both concern and curiosity.
"Darling, What happened to your blood?"
"...."
"Darling, What mixed in your blood?"
"..."
"Darling, regardless of how thoroughly Adriana and I probed into your clandestine history, all we uncovered were fragments:
Your mother, a soulless human.
Your father, a transcendent human, harbouring an unawakened Frost Phoenix bloodline.
Your village is renowned solely for its agricultures and blossoms.
Nothing.....The village held no secrets that could account for the peculiar composition of your blood.
You, seemingly not to awaken your Frost Phoenix bloodline.....Why does your blood affect others and influence their mind?
Why?
No matter how many tests we conducted, the results persisted.....a mere mortal human. I cannot understand the anomaly in your blood... except" Lilith's eyes turned inscrutable, and she leaned in closer,
"Another contracted mythical beast or....another spirit that lurking within your body...that I don't know?"
"~chu~" Eli simply kissed her lips; there was no way she was going to push him, even if in a serious situation. She liked it when her husband kissed her to calm down.
"I am sorry, Lilith... But I made a promise to my 'Ava'....not to divulge anything related to her" Eli's tone shifted to a serious.
'Ava?' Lilith processed the revelation, the name of Eli's first wife unveiled for the first time and with that information, she would get--
"And.Don't.you.dare.investigate.on.her" Eli's words sliced through the air with an icy finality, a rare display of an emotionless facade towards her.
Eli understood her more than she thought.
Lilith flinched when she saw his blank look at her and his 'Blank' emotion.
S-She didn't like it.
"I am sorry" Lilith whispered, wrapping her arms around him in an attempt to cool him down.
