".... Daughter?"
Lod's brain stopped working.
He was a 10,000-year-old bachelor who didn't even have a girlfriend. Now that he suddenly had a daughter, who the hell could he find to reason with?
"Congratulations!"
Staring.
Lod was so angry in his heart. He suddenly tilted his head and stared fiercely at that bastard. Two rays of light shot out from his eyes, and his killing intent was like a sharp sword. He wanted to stab Constantine to death.
"Uh... I was just joking."
Constantine shuddered and the muscles on his face twitched. He immediately raised his hand to surrender and laughed dryly. "We are so close. It's just a joke. Don't take it seriously."
"Hmph."
Lod snorted and turned to look at the girl again. He frowned slightly and said, "You said that you are my Daughter, then what is the evidence?"
A girl who suddenly appeared and said that she was his daughter, no matter from which perspective, there was a big problem.
Moreover.
He didn't even have a wife, so how could he have a daughter? Could it be that he gave birth to her?
"Evidence?"
Nexia cutely tilted her head. Her eyes, which were as pure as gemstones, reflected his figure. She said, "As for the evidence, hasn't Father already received it?"
"I received it?"
Lod looked surprised and said, "When did I receive your so-called evidence?"
"It's that sleeve."
Nexia explained, "Father should be able to sense that my Spiritual Power is still on that sleeve."
"Wait a minute."
Lod waved his hand and interrupted the girl. He felt that his brain was suddenly in a mess and asked, "How can you prove that you are my daughter with just a piece of sleeve?"
That piece of sleeve was caught and swallowed, thrown into the space and time a hundred years ago - that was right.
But that was just an accident, and it was not him who was thrown into the past space and time, and what could a piece of sleeve do?
Therefore, with just this broken sleeve, it was impossible to prove that the girl in front of him was his daughter.
"It is impossible to prove your identity with just a piece of sleeve. It can only prove that you once picked up the fragments of my dead tyrant suit that I lost." Lod's eyes were like torches as he looked straight at the girl in front of him and said, "So, do you have any other evidence?"
"I am indeed not your biological daughter."
Nexia's eyes dimmed a little. She slowly lowered her head and bit her red lips. A bit of bitterness brewed in her heart. "But please believe me. I really did not lie to you. I am indeed your daughter. This is what you personally admitted."
"The more you say it, the more absurd it becomes."
Lod's eyebrows were knitted into a ball and his voice became a few degrees colder. "I haven't even seen you before. When have I ever personally admitted that you are my daughter?"
"Wait, Lod, don't be so hasty to make a conclusion." Constantine suddenly interrupted and rubbed his chin full of stubble. He said meaningfully, "Maybe what this girl said is true, but you haven't experienced all this?"
"I haven't experienced it yet."
Lod revealed a shocked expression. If it was according to Constantine's thoughts, wouldn't this girl in front of him come from the timeline of the future?
"Even the Angel that devours time has appeared. Is there anything else that is impossible?" Constantine laughed and spread his hands, saying, "Of course, all of this is based on the fact that she didn't lie to you."
"I won't lie to father!"
Nexia grabbed the corner of her clothes and looked at Lod timidly. A pleading look appeared in her eyes, and there was a hint of crying in her voice. "I... I won't lie to you. I am really your daughter. Please believe me."
Lod's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something. A moment later, he casually waved his hand and set up a barrier around him, isolating the sound and vision from the outside.
The reason why he did this was because the following conversation was related to his own secrets, so he could not be heard by others.
"You said that you are my daughter, and you are from the future. Then you should know some secrets about me, right?" Lod said indifferently.
This was the best way to prove it.
If Nexia was not talking random stuff and was really his future daughter, then she would definitely know some of the secrets he was hiding.
His secrets were not many, but at least the identity of a soul king was something that no one close to knew.
Just like the meaning of Nemu to him, for those close to him, Lod would never hide too much. Using the identity of a spirit king to distinguish between true and false could be said to be the most suitable.
"Go ahead."
Lod pinched the girl's chin, lifted her delicate face, and said indifferently, "If it really is my daughter, at least you know about that matter."
The man's voice was very calm, but Nexia knew in her heart that this was just a disguise on the surface. What was hidden under the calm was the raging turbulence.
Once her next answer could not match this man's expectations, then what awaited her would be a monstrous wave, mercilessly crushing her into powder!
"You are... Soul King!"
Nexia met the man's gaze, her pure eyes filled with determination, without any hesitation.
"What else?"
Lod's heart moved, and he was almost convinced. However, he remained expressionless and continued to ask, "If that's the only thing I can trust, it's still hard for me to believe in you."
In fact, it has basically been proved here that Nexia is indeed his future daughter, but just to be on the safe side, Lord still wants to try again.
"There is one more thing."
Nexia bit her lips, hesitation flashing across her beautiful face. Finally, she made up her mind and slowly walked over. "This is what father told me. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I must not leak it out."
Seeing the girl walk over step by step, Lod raised his eyebrows, but he did not respond. He allowed her to approach him, wanting to see what other secrets she could tell.
"Father."
Nexia stood on tiptoe and leaned close to Lod's ear. Two cold hands held his cheek and slowly uttered a name in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
The moment the name left his mouth, Lod's pupils trembled violently like an earthquake. He could not even control Spiritual Power in his body.
Bang -
The granite floor was shattered, and Spiritual Power, who was visible to the naked eye, instantly exploded. A suffocating pressure spread out.
In an instant, Kido's barrier was covered in cracks.
If not for the fact that Lod had intentionally restrained himself, he would have already forcefully shattered the barrier and razed the entire hotel lobby to the ground!
"Hu."
A moment later, Lod calmed down. He took a deep breath and looked at the girl in front of him again. He revealed a bitter smile and said, "You even know that name. It seems that you really is my daughter."
Even Nemu did not know that name.
And the only person who knew this name was undoubtedly the person he trusted the most.
