Chapter 163 (2/2)
Lily had been listening to the boring conversation with her head tilted for half an hour. At that point, her neck finally seemed to be feeling better. The husky girl straightened her head up slightly, looked at Blushedt and asked, “Uncle, what does ‘glorious ancient kingdom will reopen its door’ mean?”
It was not easy for her to remember the words so clearly.
“That’s what it said in the prophecy brought by the sirens. They didn’t explain further,” Blushedt replied. “And we guess that this means, the lost ruins of Olympus, Osiris and sun ships may reappear in the world.”
“Reappear?” Lily’s ears suddenly stood upright. “I know Olympus, it’s in Greece.”
“No, I mean the real Olympus and other ancient palaces.” Blushedt’s eyes sparkled. “These ruins were built by the strongest men back then, using supernatural powers. Just as demons were able to build their palaces in the crevices of space. At that time, they also built their temples in another space. They expressed their ‘invincible might’ this way and also to prevent human trespassing. But, the entrances to these ancient palaces collapsed with the death of their builders and there is only a small amount of debris left on Earth now. If The Day of Return can make these relics reappear, I believe that at least, the Thunder Giant’s descendants will rise again. And oh, there are also those Nordic hermits. They are quite dependent on certain treasures that are passed from generation to generation.”
Blushedt seemed to pay more attention to these ancient relics than Bluphlei. He kept talking about ancient sanctuaries that were lost in another space. However, when he talked about these things, another thought flashed across Hao Ren’s mind:
“Glorious ancient kingdom” most likely referred to another place!
He knew more than the two werewolf elders. He had heard of even more ancient mysteries regarding unusual creatures from the psychopathic female. It was a secret these creatures had long forgotten and only the earliest ones knew of: the true origins of the unusual creatures.
The most glorious ancient kingdom was not on Earth but, in The Plane of Dreams!
The idea suddenly crossed his mind. Plus, a couple of other experiences led Hao Ren to believe more and more that he had accidentally guessed part of the truth. However, he needed to confirm all this so, he tried to hide the weird expression on his face. Only Vivian noticed his eyes flashing and asked, “Landlord, what happened to you?”
“Err, nothing, just drifting away.”
“Oh,” Vivian said and looked up at the wall clock. Immediately, she stood up, wipe her hands on her apron and walked towards the kitchen like it was a conditioned reflex. “You guys talk first, I’ll go cook. Doggie, quickly go to the supermarket at the junction and buy some meat. We have guests today. Let me prepare some delicious dishes!”
Vivian had been living there for a couple of months. She had fully integrated into the roles of cook and nanny. The process of getting up to go into the kitchen and ordering Lily to buy food was smooth. This baffled the two Ebbens. Bluphlei opened his mouth in surprised, “Wait… I found it weird when I saw that apron just now. Is the countess responsible for cooking here?”
Hao Ren laughed inside and thought, “You’re so surprised to find that Vivian is the cook here, if you find out what Y’zaks does, you’re going to faint for sure: This godlike, great demon’s responsible for the liquefied gas tank here…”
