Liliya slowly opened her eyes and saw Guding smiling at her, "I knew you would be okay."
Then she saw an old man next to Guding, "Is he... our new member?"
Guding always enjoyed recruiting unusual people into their group. Even if it was this old man, Liliya wouldn't find it too surprising, which is why she raised the question the moment she saw him.
"My name is Caesar." Caesar smiled faintly. Liliya was the spitting image of Di Ni from back in the day.
"You are... Grandpa?!" Although Liliya had never met Caesar, she had often heard her mother mention this name. He was her father, as well as a powerful demigod.
"Di Ni told me about you. In fact, we've always kept in touch, just never met face to face. Less than a year after she got married, she sent me a message saying she had a daughter. She also sent me your photo..." Caesar spoke, projecting the image of a tiny infant, still in swaddling clothes. The baby had rosy skin and looked very cute.
