Lind was having a lot of company so close to the competition. He was still figuring out what he would be making when Elder Yi, Shoti, and 3 aether children arrived suddenly. Qing had come running for some reason but no one was talking about why they were all here in front of him.
Annabelle was sitting practically in his lap as when the aether children had arrived, the young man of water and darkness had almost tried to manhandle her away from Lind. The interesting light and darkness girl had hit him over the head and Annabelle had refused to leave Lind's side.
He comforted her until she stopped shivering when Qing finally arrived.
"May I ask why all you seniors are visiting me today?" Lind knew his status was practically an open secret to some demon powers but so far as he knew, there were no aether children after him. The older man that he thought was at the Gold Tier was a very rare mono-elemental aether child.
