Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
“Of course,” Xi Wei replied, feeling a warmth in his sleep. He twitched his lips, ultimately pretending not to know. Stealing was stealing, and it would happen sooner or later. However, if Connie was going to steal, couldn’t she do it faster? This little sip, little sip—what was the point? What was the meaning of savoring red dragon milk?
Finally, Xi Wei couldn’t take it anymore. After Connie finished the last large gulp of red dragon milk, he turned over and sat up in bed, looking at her with an unfriendly gaze.
“Wuwuwuwah!!!! Σ(っ°Д°;)っ”
Connie was startled by Xi Wei, who had suddenly come back to life. She couldn’t help but spray the milk she had just drunk all over Xi Wei.
Xi Wei: (O_o)??
Connie: Σ(ﾟдﾟlll)
It was over, it was really over! Stealing was just being discovered, and it wouldn’t lead to anything too serious. But now, even thinking as a little ferret, Connie knew that things were about to become unmanageable.
“That, Darling, I’m sorry! Wuwuwu…”
Connie knew she had made a mistake and immediately tried to remedy it. She crawled into Xi Wei’s arms, intending to lick the red dragon milk off his face.
“Prprprprprprpr……”
After licking for a while, things seemed to have gotten even worse. Xi Wei’s emotions had been relatively stable just now, but now veins were bulging on his forehead, and he was about to explode.
“Connie…” a deep, hoarse voice said.
Connie’s small shoulders trembled. She saw that Xi Wei was lowering his head, and she couldn’t see his eyes.
“Yes… Yes! Master! What are your orders!”
She shivered, stretching a polite yet awkward smile to the corners of her mouth. What a terrifying oppressive aura! It even gave her the feeling of facing the Mother Dragon in the dragon’s lair.
“Making a mistake and stealing milk requires punishment.”
Xi Wei looked up, his sapphire eyes seeming to emit a red glow. Connie knelt on the quilt, slowly retreating in panic.
“Master, I, I was wrong, I’ll never dare to drink it again, wuwuwu ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3”
“Too late, kekeke!”
Xi Wei raised his hand, grabbed Connie’s arm, and with a gentle pull, drew the petite Connie into his arms. Then, he flipped over and pinned her beneath him.
“Since you can shapeshift, it means you have reached adulthood. Adult giant dragons must accept adult dragon punishment!”
“Wuwuwu ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3”
Connie tucked her arms in, her small hands clasped tightly in front of her chest, seemingly in fear. But upon closer inspection, a suppressed expectation and excitement could be seen in the depths of her dragon eyes.
“Wuwuwu, Master, I was wrong…”
“Darling, wuwuwu, spare me…”
Connie cried, twisting and turning on the quilt. As she twisted, her dress gradually came off, and as she twisted further, everything was gone.
“Okay, Master can start punishing me now.” Finally, she hugged Xi Wei’s neck, revealing her true intentions.
Xi Wei: (O_O)……
…
Connie ultimately paid the price for her recklessness. Although she was a dragon, it was a regretful matter. Xi Wei, whom she faced, was a monster who had absorbed more than half of the God of Death’s divinity. Although Xi Wei had not completely become a god, nor had he even ignited his divine fire, his divinity was gradually evolving his body, slowly lifting it out of the mundane realm. How could a dragon possibly outplay a demigod? Don’t even think about it.
Xi Wei was also in a difficult situation because his affair with Connie had been discovered. After all, he couldn’t coldly move Connie out of the bedroom. When Lori and Ruo Yi came looking for him, they saw Connie sleeping in his room. Connie sleeping in his room was fine in itself, as she was fully clothed. The problem was that Ruo Yi, with her keen senses, had performed a time rewind.
And so, Xi Wei was now standing in front of Lori and Ruo Yi, the two empresses, reflecting on his actions.
“When did it start?” Ruo Yi rubbed her temples helplessly. In just a few days without her supervision, His Majesty the King had added another formidable general to his harem.
“Ahem, how should I put this?” Xi Wei awkwardly reached out and touched his nose, feeling that it was difficult to explain.
Lori cleared her throat and sat down in front of Xi Wei, facing him.
“Start from when the feelings developed.”
“Feelings…” Xi Wei recalled carefully, carefully choosing his words. “Strictly speaking, Connie regarded me as her fixed mate as soon as she hatched from her egg. That is to say, the feelings began to develop when Connie was still a dragon egg.”
“When she was a dragon egg…” Ruo Yi’s eyes widened in disbelief. Could dragon eggs fall in love these days?
“Yes, I know it’s unbelievable, but that’s how it is. When Connie was still a dragon egg, she often showed that she liked me to polish her eggshell, and only I could do it. She also liked to soak in the hot springs with me, and she wouldn’t go with anyone else but me.” Xi Wei lied with his eyes open.
What could he say? In fact, he was telling the truth. Polishing dragon eggshells and taking dragon eggs to soak in hot springs were all system missions. Perhaps it was from that time that Connie gradually developed feelings for him.
“Okay, so when did you guys do *that*?” Ruo Yi asked another crucial question.
“The night before yesterday,” Xi Wei answered without hesitation.
“Second question, why does Connie bring you milk every morning?”
Xi Wei fell silent. After a while, under the scorching gazes of the two empresses, he hesitantly and feebly said:
“Well, you see, dragons have a lactation period. For some inexplicable reason, Connie entered this period early. Ahem… This means…”
“You mean the milk we drink every morning is dragon milk?!” Lori and Ruo Yi exclaimed in unison.
“Uh, yes.” Xi Wei smiled awkwardly and nodded honestly.
“So, setting aside everything else, it tasted pretty good, right?”
Lori’s mouth twitched. She looked Xi Wei up and down, finally sighing, and said nothing. Ruo Yi helplessly held her forehead and glanced at Connie, who was curled up and sleeping soundly, and also said nothing. Since it had already been drunk, what else could be said?
If this world had the internet, Lori and Ruo Yi would undoubtedly be searching online: “His Majesty the King is becoming more perverted, how can we correct this? Waiting online, urgent!”
“Alright, Connie’s matter is settled,” Lori clapped her hands, reaching a conclusion. She and Ruo Yi didn’t mind having more sisters, they just hoped the process would be consensual. Fortunately, Xi Wei had always done a good job in this regard, and had never disappointed them.
“Then, my King,” Ruo Yi tilted Xi Wei’s chin, her eyes bewitching as she asked, “Now, besides Connie, who else have you left your affections with? Be honest~ You know, Lori and I are now demigods. If you don’t confess properly… Hmph~ You understand~”
