Chapter 2058 - Comfy (2) (1/2)

Watching Dyon carry Ri's delighted figure away, Kawa shook her head.

”What are you all looking at, back to work!” Kawa scolded the once meditating elves. ”You're all so slow, you've lost face for our Elvin Clan. Everyone fought but you all, aren't you ashamed to rely on your Queen to maintain your position?!”​​

Hearing these words, a fire burned in the belly of the elves. They had a legacy of running for so long… A once mighty race, the ruler of an Era, crushed under their own progress. It was time for them to rise up once more!

Seeing that they focused on their task at hand once more, Kawa nodded and left to her own training. Before her seal was undone, she had to train her body to the celestial realm. If she couldn't do this even with the talent of the Celestial Fox and the resources Dyon poured into her, she would be too ashamed to raise her head.

Kawa sighed. 'Husband… I hope you find your path…'

”Look at you.” Dyon's eyes greedily raked over Ri's body.

”Stop looking at me like that.” Ri's tails suddenly appeared to whip at Dyon's forehead.

”Ah…” Dyon rubbed his head. It seemed his wife had stepped up her forehead fl.i.c.k.i.n.g game. He actually felt it that time. Usually, he feigned it to make her feel better.

”Hmph. You interrupted me while I was at an important stage and made me lose face in front of them all. You can forget about whatever perverted thoughts you're holding in that thick skull.”

Ri pouted, her petite figure spinning to look away from her husband.

Dyon couldn't help but grin. Because of how Ri m.a.t.u.r.ed, he almost forgot that she was the very same girl who once dressed more like a man than a woman. Her demeanor was just as fiery as Clara's if you got on her bad side.

”Oh, come on, it was just a little prank. Plus, do you think I only come to see you when I have perverted thoughts? Your husband is a very wholesome man. I have no such thoughts.”

”Oh yea? Then why did you bring me to these bedchambers instead of the elders' gathering room?”

Dyon touched his nose awkwardly. ”Coincidence. Pure coincidence.”

Dyon couldn't help but laugh internally. She looked so happy just a moment ago, but now everything had changed.

Still, he understood why. Ri was of course worried about her father and her parents' relationship. Though he understood this, there really wasn't much he could do. Though Dyon didn't think himself to be a bad leader, it wasn't within his capabilities to help someone gain confidence in themselves. In fact, if he tried to help Edrym, it might have the opposite effect.

Dyon stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Ri's waist. Though she was facing away from him, he could still read her expression of worry.

”He'll be fine. Don't forget, he's one of the rare True Empaths to ever be born. No one is in a better position than he is to understand his own truth.”
