Qiu Bi quickly explained to avoid Angelin misunderstanding.
Then, as if he had just remembered something, he added, "Angelina, Kiana and Bianca are twins, you know."
"twin……"
Angeline murmured softly, then looked out the window at the swirling fog and whispered in a daze, "The 'me' in this world is happier than I am."
Whether in terms of childhood or family circumstances, Kiana was far superior to Angelin.
"Don't worry, Angeline. You'll fit in easily with this family; the children are very welcoming."
"Okay, Dad, I understand."
Chapter 155 "Dad, you're hard."
at dusk.
Angeline's room at Fogsea Manor.
Angeline suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze eerily calm.
Countless cries seemed to echo in her ears, the bed seemed to transform into countless corpses, and even the bedding seemed to melt into blood, clinging to Angelin like a malignant tumor.
"Another nightmare..."
Angeline's expression was very calm, and she seemed unaffected by the nightmare.
During her time living in the Fog Sea Manor, she did not wear the clothes of the "Herrscher of the End," but instead often wore Luna's everyday clothes.
In addition, Angeline's current clothing is pure white pajamas, which, although small, are sufficient for her normal use.
However, the tightness in her chest area made her a little uncomfortable.
From another perspective, it is precisely because the chest area is relatively tight that she makes ordinary pajamas look like "sexually suggestive" clothing.
Angeline stared calmly at the ceiling, then closed her eyes again, preparing to fall asleep once more.
however……
Whenever Angeline closes her eyes, she recalls those "nightmares".
The scene of personally killing Himeko Murata, Theresa, Seele, Bronya, and Raiden Mei is still vivid in Angeline's mind, like an inescapable nightmare that continues to haunt her.
After trying to fall asleep without success, Angeline opened her eyes again and suddenly let out a long sigh of relief.
As the "Herrscher of the End," Angeline doesn't actually need to sleep.
However, the act of "sleeping" allows Angeline to feel that she is still "human," rather than the strongest life form created by the "Honkai consciousness."
Angeline lay on the bed for three or four minutes, then sat up, left the room expressionlessly, and stood by the window in the corridor, staring blankly at the thick fog surging outside.
……
Meanwhile, in Qiu Bi's bedroom.
Lady Hilfalia seemed to sense something and suddenly opened her beautiful eyes.
Looking at the face so close to hers, Lady Hilfalia revealed a languid yet alluring smile.
Then, she gently bit Qiu Bi's lips while waking him up with her hand.
Having experienced numerous night raids, Qiu Bi is now very sensitive to this behavior and quickly wakes up from his sleep.
At first, he thought Seele was secretly "biting" him like Raiden Mei was doing, and he was immediately terrified.
After realizing that it was Lady Hilfalia who had woken him, Qiu Bi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir, what are you afraid of?" Lady Hilfalia lightly pecked Qiu Bi's lips, then continued, "Are you worried that I will get pregnant? Please rest assured, I am no longer human and cannot conceive."
"It's not because of this..."
Qiu Bi sighed, at the same time stopping Lady Hilfalia's practiced hand movements.
Then, he asked in confusion, "Madam, why did you suddenly wake me up? It's not morning yet."
"Angelina seems to have left the room. Do you want to go check on her?"
"Hmm? I'll go check on the situation. You go to sleep first."
Qiu Bi kissed Lady Hilfaria, then casually put on his nightgown.
Lady Hilfalia propped herself up, grabbing the slipping sheet to cover her alluring body.
"Sir, I'll wait for you to come back."
"Ah."
Qiu Bi didn't stop walking. He opened the bedroom door and came to the empty corridor.
Then he saw the white-haired girl standing by the window.
The girl maintained the same calm expression as always.
"Dad, why are you up?"
“I noticed you left the room, so I came out to check on you.”
Qiu Bi yawned, then asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"
"Yes, I dreamt about things from the past."
"..."
Qiu Bi suddenly fell silent.
Angeline's dreams about the past are certainly not comforting.
Rather, no matter how Qiu Bi comforts her, he cannot help Angeline escape the torment of her past memories.
After a few seconds of silence, Qiu Bi smiled and teased, "Then... do you need a hug from your father?"
"..."
Angeline stared at Qiu Bi, remaining silent, which made Qiu Bi feel a little awkward.
A second or two later, Angeline suddenly took a few steps forward and walked up to Qiu Bi.
Immediately, she pressed herself close to Qiu Bi's body, while simultaneously signaling to Qiu Bi to hug her.
Qiu Bi was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously hugged Angeline.
"A long-lost feeling..."
Angeline murmured softly, relaxing her body and nestling gently in Qiu Bi's arms.
Qiu Bi gently patted Angeline's back, offering the girl a small but firm comfort.
Angeline squinted her eyes, as if resting or closing them, with only the sound of her even breathing echoing softly.
A moment later, Angeline looked up at Qiu Bi.
"Dad, can you hug me more often in the future?"
"Of course, my arms are always open for you."
Qiu Bi hesitated for a moment, then reached out and pressed Angeline's hair, but instead of rubbing it, he gently pressed it.
Angeline made a slight nasal sound, as if responding, yet also as if she were feeling comfortable.
After enjoying the moment in peace, Angeline left Qiu Bi's embrace and slowly took a few steps back.
However, even though she was very satisfied inside, her expression didn't change at all.
The long years of killing have shaped Angelin into the person she is today, turning her from a lively girl into a girl with no personality, no feelings, and no sense of purpose.
"Dad, I'm going back to sleep now."
These were supposed to be lively and energetic words, but when they came out of Angeline's mouth, they carried a strange sense of loneliness.
Qiu Bi made a soft "hmm" sound, then watched Angeline return to her bedroom.
Just as she was about to enter the bedroom, Angeline seemed to remember something and said in a calm tone, "Dad, you're hard—it's not good for your health to hold it in for too long."
"..."
Qiu Bi's expression froze instantly, and before he could explain anything, Angeline closed the bedroom door.
He stood there for a long time, still unable to recover from Angeline's "astonishing words".
Squeak!
Lady Hilfalia gently opened the bedroom door. The thin sheet loosely wrapped around her delicate body, which only added to her alluring beauty.
“Sir, Angeline has gone back to sleep. We should continue to rest now.”
"No—Madam, it's not time to rest yet. There are still some things to do before going to sleep."
"Hmm~ Sir, why don't you hurry back to your room?"
Lady Hilfalia smiled sweetly, then turned and went into the bedroom, leaving Qiu Bi with her graceful figure.
Qiu Bi quickly returned to the bedroom and closed the bedroom door behind him.
……
Ever since that night when she asked for a hug, whenever Angeline had a nightmare, she would leave the bedroom and patiently wait for Qiu Bi by the window in the hallway.
Whenever this happens, Qiu Bi would leave the bedroom and give her a warm and comforting hug.
However, after living in the Fog Sea Manor for nearly a month, they still hadn't returned to their original world, which aroused suspicion among Qiu Bi, Raiden Mei, Yae Sakura, and Seele.
"Madam, why haven't we returned to our original world yet?"
"We'll be back soon."
Lady Hilfalia unfolded her folding fan, using the fan surface to cover half of her face. "Sir, please don't be impatient."
Qiu Bi looked at Lady Silvaria with suspicion, but after hesitating for a long time, he still chose to believe her.
Angeline sat by the window, holding a cup of tea, staring blankly at the thick fog surging outside.
Luna stood next to Angeline, mimicking her movements.
Qiu Bi glanced at him sideways, then silently looked away.
