Chapter 720: Many News (2/2)

Tiane slapped the back of his head in anger.

”Lost your head! Krune, you better give this guy a good lesson. Lakin had come here before after Luvile Universe joined the Dalin administration. However, this guy ran away and refused to take the position at all. Without any other choice, Lakin had to go back and continued to take care of it. It makes me feel quite sad since Lakin is refraining from starting a family of his own because of the workload.”

Krune narrowed his eyes.

”Is that so?”

Ruik didn't relent.

”So what? I'm still less than 200 years old. Once I go back and take the position, I will need to stay there for who knows how many years. Let me enjoy it for a while longer.”

Krune couldn't help but ask.

”Why do I feel like that your 'enjoy' has something to do with sleeping as much as you can?”

Tiane and Liriu immediately nodded vigorously. Sure enough, Krune still knew Ruik way too well.

”Shut up, you three! I'm comprehending Dream Laws, okay? Sleep is a good thing for me. Just leave me alone. Besides, it's not like we have a way of going out of Dalin anyway. After all, we can't ask Senior Wally to leave the time deceleration formation.”

Krune snorted, though.

”Oh! So that's the problem, uh? Very well. We don't need Senior Wally to come. I can do it myself. In fact, I can do it right now. What about it, should I send you to Luvile Universe?”

Ruik felt a chill on his back as soon as he heard that. For some reason, he totally believed that Krune had a way to send him through the Dalin Universe Protection Formation at this very moment.

”Cough.. cough... There is no need. I still have to prepare my heart.”

Krune sighed and shook his head.

”Fine. Lakin will indeed make you work until only your bones remain once you go there. I'll give you... a few days to prepare.”

”What? Only a few days?!”

Krune then looked at Tiane and Liriu.

”What do you think? Are a few days enough?”

Tiane nodded almost instantly.

”Definitely.”

Liriu even added.

”In fact, a day should be more than enough for wrapping everything for dad. I can even help if Uncle Krune wishes so.”

”You! You! How can you betray your husband and father that easily?”

Tiane shrugged her shoulder.

”You only know how to sleep. It's time for you to start doing something else.”

Even Liriu already got tired of seeing Ruik sleeping most of the time.

”That's for your own good, dad. Who knows, you might even find something else you like other than putting your head on a pillow.”

Tears fell from Ruik's eyes, and he headed to a corner. His family's betrayal had really taken a toll on him.

Krune and everyone else couldn't help but laugh out loud, though.

Right after, a man came forward and complimented Krune.

”Krune, it has really been a very long time.”

Krune looked at him and felt like he had seen the man before. A second later, Krune finally remembered who he was.

”Darten! Wait, how come you're here?”

Fie had told Krune she would bring him to meet Asla, Tuan, and Darten. Krune had never heard about any Asla and Tuan. Still, he did have a vague memory about a person called Darten.

Darten was the son of the first chef Krune had ever met in his life. During that time, Krune had just discovered the joy of eating and cooking when he entered to test the food in a restaurant. That same day, he asked the restaurant's chef to teach him to cook. In the end, that chef got moved by Krune's passion for food and decided to give him his recipe book.

That was the first recipe book Krune had touched in his life as well. In exchange, the chef asked Krune to help his son with his Foundation. That son just so happened to be Darten. Krune had then opened his Foundation for Darten to take a look and tried to answer all the doubts Darten had at that time. That had been the only interaction Krune had ever had with Darten in his life.

He would have never expected to see the chef's son in this place. Not only that, but he was already in the Divine View Realm too. It might not be much compared to Fie and the others, but it was already enough to give him unlimited lifespan in the Mortal Realm.

Fie smiled as she and Darten held each other's hand.

”Dad. Darten and I are married. Besides, you are now a grandfather. Tuan, Asla, come here.”

A girl and man, twins, then stepped forward as well. This was the first time they had seen the wisp that turned into a legend in the Wisp Main World.

”Nice to meet you, grandfather.”

Krune's head spun. Just how did it turn out like this?
