In the distance, there was a woman clad in a dark velvet robe.
Davis found himself drawn to her sparkling athyst eyes, which glead like distant stars in the night sky, reflecting the mysteries of the universe. Her complexion was as pure and flawless as snow, radiating an otherworldly glow that seed to defy earthly imperfections. Wrapped in a dark velvet robe, she exuded an aura of elegance and grace of a noble lady, and even her body that was now in possession of the curves of womanhood made her look quite alluring, but he knew she was still childish and knew to act cute.
Yet, her expression was anything but cute right now as it looked worried.
Stella pursed her lips, looking at him like she had sohow wronged him, causing Davis to smile lightly.
He raised his hand and beckoned, "Co here."
"…!"
Stella's expression brightened. She turned to look back and saw her mother, Wix Voidfield, who nodded her head before she rushed to Davis, her figure dashing like a fairy. She appeared before him in a swift motion, her eyes gleaming with excitent.
However, that excitent soon died like a fla that was doused with water before she lowered her head again.
Davis held the side of her arm and opened his mouth, "Do you have sothing you want to ask?"
He prompted her, causing Stella to raise her head and stick out her bottom lip, "Do you hate mother?"
"No, I don't."
Davis's voice was clear, but Stella didn't seem to accept it as she looked worried.
"I heard what happened between big brother and mother's master. Is this going to sour our relationship…? Is big brother going to… abandon …?"
"Why would I?"
Davis couldn't help but chuckle. He captured her small hands and wrapped them with warmth.
"Did you do anything that I have to worry about?"
"…" Stella blinked, "No~"
"So what are you afraid of?" Davis's lips curled, "If your mother isn't going to give you to , I'm afraid that I would have to co fight to take you away."
"Hehe~"
Stella finally regained her smile as she jumped a few tis with delight. It made Davis close his eyes, not knowing how many tis he wanted Stella to be like a lady when she had a voluptuous body like her mother!
However, Stella quickly pouted and swayed his hand left and right, "Then please don't hate Mother."
"As I said," Davis pursed his lips, finally opening his eyes, "I don't hate your mother. I kept an eye on everything that happened, and your mother didn't really seem to know what was happening at that ti."
He smiled and looked behind Stella, nodding at Wix Voidfield.
Wix Voidfield smiled lightly behind her veil in relaxation. This whole ti, she had been worried that Davis wouldn't accept Stella anymore, but it seed like she hadn't been wrong about him from the beginning.
She returned the nod, "She's yours from now on, so take good care of her."
"…?"
Davis blinked, unable to believe those words. He looked at Stella who seed to shyly blush and lower her head.
However, Davis wasn't having this so fast as he didn't want to separate mother and daughter.
"Fairy Wix, it's not like we wouldn't et anymore, so there's no need to send Stella off to . Of course, I would like to have her with but I don't think it would be a good call to rob her away from you who nurtured her for not twenty or hundred years but hundreds and thousands of years."
"I appreciate your thoughts." Wix Voidfield smiled wryly behind her veil, "However, as master's Void Dust Tree, I must follow her lead and be loyal to her. I know you have been wronged, and I apologize in my master's stead, but I'm afraid I can't take your side, and I don't think my daughter deserves her happiness to be taken away either, so I once again ask you to take care of her."
She cupped her hands, signaling a formal send-off.
"…"
Davis was pretty speechless as he saw Fairy Wix cut off her relationship with Stella, as this is what that ant.
Of course, it wasn't like they wouldn't talk and protect each other anymore, but the recurrence of it would be cut to the bare minimum that he felt like he was needlessly severing their mother-daughter relationship, making him slightly feel guilty.
He turned to look at Stella and also saw that she had tears in her eyes that refused to spill out. However, she still refused to let go of his hand, holding it firmly, which allowed him to know her determination to stay with him.
"You know what…" Davis chuckled lightly, bringing Stella to Wix Voidfield as he closed the distance.
Reaching out his other hand, he kept his palm open, "Join , Fairy Wix. I promise to look after you the sa way I would look after Stella. Then, the two of you can be together."
"…"
Wix Voidfield blinked while Saintess Lunaria's brows raised.
They were silent as though they couldn't believe what they had just heard.
After a few seconds, Davis saw that there was no answer, and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha~ My arrogance ca out once again, thinking I could recruit Fairy Wix." He shook his head, "To be honest-"
His lips curled, turning to look back at Saintess Lunaria.
"I just wanted to see you cry after I rob Fairy Wix from you."
"…"
Davis made a cold yet derisive expression before he returned his gaze to Fairy Wix.
"Sorry about that. It is too frustrating for not to be able to do anything against your master, as I owe her too much. But it's not like I can do anything against her since she has soone looking after her. I didn't an to use you, but my intent to not separate you from Stella is also true."
"…" Wix Voidfield.
Davis smiled, "Don't get wrong. I understand your position, but I still don't want to separate the two of you. Feel free to visit her anyti you please since I trust you wouldn't betray without formally declaring war, but that wouldn't be betrayal, would it?"
He chuckled, cupping his hand, "Then I bid farewell."
"Stella, shall we go?"
"Ah, yes…"
Stella was pretty much dumbfounded like her mother, absentmindedly following him into the distance before she turned back and shouted.
"Mother, I love you very much~ Thank you for giving birth to and nurturing !"
"…"
Wix Voidfield shuddered as she finally ca out of her reverie. Turning to look back, she raised her hand and waved, "Have a good life, my beloved daughter~ I will always look out for you~"
Stella also waved back her hand, her face flooded with tears.
Soon, they disappeared out of the horizon, leaving Wix Voidfield and Saintess Lunaria behind.
Saintess Lunaria gazed in the direction Davis and Stella left for a while before she sighed.
"I didn't think my actions would've hurt him that much. It's my fault for not being sympathetic enough to his plight."
"…"
Wix Voidfield stood to her side, standing slightly back, "Master, it's not like we had ti. I understand we quickly had to make a move, so I… don't… bla you."
"Even if you say that with so hesitance clear in your voice…"
Wix Voidfield lowered her head, "Forgive , master."
"It's fine. As I said, it's my fault. I am trying to rectify it, but right now, no amount of words will change his mind. In fact, I think it has only worsened with ti as he now wants to see my cry, which is more humiliating for than getting slapped."
Saintess Lunaria smilingly shook her head, "That child's frustration has been bottled up too long."
"Perhaps slaughtering so people will help him release those frustrations, no?" Wix Voidfield suggested.
"Or it could worsen." Saintess Lunaria sighed, "I only hope that he doesn't fall to the wicked side as sotis, the righteous path does overdo things as I did a while ago and end up pushing a person to the wicked side when they could be saved. I would be guilty of pushing him down the wrong path, and I can't allow that to happen~"
"Still," She abruptly turned to look at Wix Voidfield, "You didn't say no to him when he asked you to join him."
"…"
Wix Voidfield wanted to say that she had been speechless at that ti, but she felt like no number of excuses would make a difference.
She lowered her head, "Forgive , master~"
Saintess Lunaria closed her eyes and shook her head, "I'm not the one keeping you with as I long told you to go pursue a man. I've never been with one, but I do see how it brings an extremity in a woman. You could be happier than ever or miserable, and I do see a pattern in his wives as they're happier than most couples I have seen. Isn't that why you also sent Stella to him?"
"I wish to be together with you until I die, my human~"
Wix Voidfield grabbed Saintess Lunaria's hand like Stella would, her countenance turning rather needy.
"Ai, if you say that and get together with a man in the future, I won't forgive you~"
Saintess Lunaria also acted like a child, looking needy as she firmly held Wix Voidfield's hand.
"In that case, I promise to only fall in love with the man you fall in love with, master~"
"No way. My man is mine and mine alone~"
Saintess Lunaria shook her head and giggled, "I put off marriage in hopes of eting my true prince in the true immortal world but didn't dare think too much since I am a Divergent. Well, let's see what is there in store for us as ascendance is near."
"…"
Wix Voidfield didn't know what to say. In that case, was she supposed to remain alone till she died?
She inwardly shrugged, thinking she had already given birth to a child, so there was little point in looking for a yang companion. However, she was happy to have seen Saintess Lunaria's childish side after a long ti.
It filled her with the tender emotions of them eting for the first ti and promising to be there for each other, making her smile foolishly.
If Davis had seen this scene, he probably wouldn't have been able to differentiate the daughter from the mother and vice versa.
