Chapter 1370: Healed, Yet... (1/2)

Davis returned to the bedroom where Lia Alstreim remained sleeping over the head-frame, defenseless. A smile lit up his face before he saw a chair nearby and simply sat on it, waiting for some time to pass as he didn't want them to think that his treatment is almost instantaneous.

He could do nothing but stare at Lia Alstreim's face, finding it funny that such a beautiful woman was his grandmother. Except, both his grandmothers were dead, and this one was a step-grandmother.

Still, he understood that it was going to turn out like this for his children as well.

They're going to have so many mothers while their step grandmothers would number around half a dozen, just on his side, to be specific.

'Sigh... I wonder when I can fulfill Evelynn's wish...?'

'However, if I make Evelynn pregnant, the others would naturally expect me to have children with them as well. It goes without saying, even if they refuse out in the open...'

'But by making them wait, all I'm doing is preventing their natural right... Yet... they digest and follow along with my selfish actions backed by selfish reasons.'

”Sigh...”

Davis sighed again.

After half an hour of waiting as random thoughts of his contemporary life flooded his mind, Davis stood up as he walked towards her, lifted up his hands, and reached out towards her. However, he stopped by a few centimeters above her feet as his hands began to glow with a pure white glow.

The life-like energy from Fallen Heaven began to heal Lia Alstreim, whose eyelids slightly quivered from the comfort his power bestowed her.

His confidence turned into nervousness once he began to witness the blood crystals recede back into her body in a slow manner. The process appeared beautiful, just like shy flowers trying to hide. However, Davis knew that it could herald a heavenly tribulation that might affect Tia Alstreim.

'I hope it's just as Tia says... Otherwise, we are pretty much screwed...'

He hoped that it wasn't her fifth Whisper of Fate Phenomenon. Otherwise, Tia's life would be in jeopardy.

He reconsidered doing this later, but after weighing his options, he felt that he didn't have the time or would be available later to save them if a situation arose. Perhaps, that is why they die in less than a decade; because he was not present.

'Mhm... Does this mean I would be somewhere else when they face danger? But I already am convinced that my fate is ever-changing, interfering or manipulating it to my liking by a relative degree with Fallen Heaven's unique prowess...'

Davis could not comprehend the extent of Fallen Heaven's complete prowess. He felt like experimenting again, but he was aware that he might be screwed if he messed up and made himself known to the world. Even if he was not endangered, it was doubtful if the world would leave his family alive.

Nevertheless, Davis was aware that he was playing his life on Extreme Difficulty to be both with his family and make enemies. However, he liked this way. Otherwise, with Fallen Heaven, he would keep having his way and might've fallen into depravity long ago.

He felt that it was impossible to not be corrupted by this power without his loved ones by his side, who constantly made him aware of who he was while supporting his actions.

Honestly, he felt blessed, except not by the heavens but Fallen Heaven!

Davis kept healing Lia Alstreim as Fallen Heaven's life-like energy quickly finished the job. The blood crystals completely receded while Lia Alstreim possessed a light smile on her face, her pale cheeks having a healthy complexion at this moment.

At the same time, her middle dantian also mended back to its initial form, causing her body to revitalize itself.

Davis could see that Lia Alstreim's bones were beginning to strengthen themselves again. If he was not wrong, Lia Alstreim was an avid body cultivator who could endure the difficulties of Body Tempering Cultivation and almost did not fear pain, but that was perhaps why she overdid it and had her middle dantian ruptured.

”!!!”

However, his expression suddenly froze as he slowly raised his chin, looking up at the skies as his gaze penetrated the upper floors with soul sense.

”Mhmm~~~ HmMmm~”

Tia Alstreim sat on a sofa over the edge in the hall, dangling her legs as she hummed a tune. It seemed to be a lullaby, like the one a mother would sing to her child in affection.

She looked at her father, who seemed to be listening to her humming in relaxation, and closed her eyes as she felt at peace, believing that her big brother would heal her mother without fail as he said before.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard trickling along the hallway. It attracted both of their attention as their heads swiveled in that direction when they saw Davis and Lia Alstreim walking together side by side with a healthy complexion on their faces.

”Mother!”

Tia screamed in happiness as she hopped from the sofa and ran towards Lia Alstreim while Edgar Alstreim's eyes became moist as he saw his wife's smile. They instantly knew that Lia Alstreim had been healed to be walking on the floor.

Their expressions blossomed into a smile, but Edgar Alstreim seemed to not be able to suppress the suspense.

”Did you truly recover, Lia?”

”Yes!~”

Lia Alstreim happily echoed, her cheeks blushing before she suddenly jumped and grabbed Davis's arms as she stuck out her curvaceous assets towards him.

”...!”

Both Edgar Alstreim and Tia Alstreim came to a stop as their legs partly slowed down. Their expressions were a sight to behold as their smiles faded, replaced with a look of confusion.

Tia Alstreim blinked before she moved forward again, still wanting to embrace her mother.

”Stop there, Tia...”

Tia Alstreim's expression changed as she stopped.

”... Why?”

Lia Alstreim's rosy lips curved into a contentful smile as she tightly plastered herself to Davis, who seemed to have a sleazy smile on his face. ”Because I'm no longer your father's woman. I belong to this man now...”

”Lia!!! Have you lost your mind!?”
