"This is... Sirin?!"
As a Support character, Fu Hua naturally followed Luo Lin into this mission.
She looked at Sirin lying in Cecilia's arms, a fierce expression flashing in her eyes. Instinctively, she clenched her fist and swung it forward.
Unfortunately, Fu Hua's fist passed through Sirin's chest, and nothing happened—Fu Hua had reverted to her ghostly mode, unable to touch anything again.
Sensing the murderous intent, Sirin suddenly opened her eyes wide, furrowing her brows and looking around.
Luo Lin stared at Fu Hua with pleading eyes—No, Immortal, calm down, calm down!
It's hard to imagine someone conveying so much with just their eyes, but Fu Hua surprisingly understood Luo Lin's meaning. Though slightly unwilling, she calmed her emotions and slowly retracted her fist.
Sirin blinked suspiciously, seeing Cecilia gazing at her with gentle eyes, gently smoothing her furrowed brow. "What's wrong, Sirin? Did you have a nightmare?"
"...Yeah." Sirin pouted, responding softly.
What should I do next to comfort her? Someone, please help!
Luo Lin maintained a smile on her face, feeling like her face was going to freeze, but she dared not make any unnecessary movements to avoid arousing Sirin's suspicion. So she continued to stroke the purple-haired girl's hair.
Under Luo Lin's touch, Sirin relaxed slightly, staring at Luo Lin's face for a few seconds before puffing her cheeks and turning away to lie down, although her slightly hurried breathing and heartbeat indicated that she couldn't sleep.
Is there anyone to help...?!
White light emanated from the Stigmata on Luo Lin's back, and someone sighed helplessly, "Ah, you, how can you not even know comfort a child properly? Show some of your authority... But it's not your fault, after all, you're not married yet..."
—It's Mother-in-law Cecilia!
Luo Lin suddenly felt a mysterious touch in her heart, but the title that emerged in her mind made the other person choke, their tone raised slightly, "Why are you calling me mother-in-law again!"
"Hehe~"
"...Stop laughing foolishly." The stigmata transmitted some irritation, then continued, "And don't just touch people's heads with your hands, say something..."
Guided by Cecilia, Luo Lin gradually relaxed, gently holding Sirin's hand. The purple-haired girl's breath hitched.
What did she want to do, what she will trying to...
"I'm sorry, Sirin, Mom has been busy these days, leaving you lonely." Luo Lin tilted her head slightly, keeping her mouth from getting too close to Sirin's ear, at least not to heighten her alertness with her voice and breath.
"Mom is here, don't worry, it was just a nightmare." She squeezed Sirin's hand slightly, indicating that she was there with her.
Sirin's breathing gradually calmed, her heartbeat returned to normal, and the tension and hostility that had just arisen disappeared. Luo Lin took the opportunity to pull her back into her embrace, patting her fluffy hair. "Go to sleep, Mom won't leave you..."
The comforting power of the Stigmata filled her with relief, and a lullaby melody came to her mind, so Luo Lin awkwardly followed the tune, her gentle voice echoing in the bedroom.
Sirin yawned, closed her eyes again, and fell asleep.
Fu Hua, who had been watching the whole time, was amazed. She witnessed Luo Lin's transformation from being at a loss and flustered to seamlessly transitioning into a gentle and caring mother role, soothing Sirin, who was on the verge of exploding, and even getting her to sleep in her arms.
She really started to doubt the relationship between Luo Lin and Cecilia... Before Luo Lin could calm down, she noticed the stars and moon moving quickly outside the window, and the sun rising from the other side of the mountain, casting its light into the room.
[Special Mechanism: Non-essential choice nodes can be accelerated to skip.]
The girl's mouth twitched, it felt like only a few seconds had passed, right?!
The Stigmata transmitted a message, "What are you standing there for? It's morning, go make breakfast!"
"Oh oh oh oh, you're right." Luo Lin quietly left the bed and went into the kitchen, subconsciously preparing a super sumptuous breakfast according to Kiana's portion.
"Wow, my dear wife is in a really good mood today! You made so much food, and... it tastes great!"
"Mom!"
Luo Lin heard a voice and instinctively turned around, opening her arms, and a rugged white haired man somehow appeared along with a white haired girl who jumped into her embrace.
"Good girl, let's eat..." Luo Lin rubbed Kiana's head and looked at Siegfried Kaslana, who was walking towards her with a smile on his face, feeling a sense of impending doom.
"Darling?"
"Mm... help me toast these two loaves of bread." Luo Lin's mind raced, pointing to the nearby toaster and two bags of bread.
"Sure, thank you for your hard work." The white-haired man naturally stood by her side and affectionately squeezed her shoulder.
Just as her mind went blank, the Stigmata nudged Luo Lin to say, "Are you still planning to play DS5 with Kiana?"
"It's the weekend, of course, I'll accompany Kiana for some fun!" Siegfried laughed heartily.
"Hmph, I bet you're the one who wants to have fun yourself? You don't even care about the other daughter at home..."
"But we still have you, my wife."
Hmm, that's strange... Luo Lin glanced back at the direction of the bedroom and noticed the door was slightly ajar, with golden eyes peeking out, secretly observing the scene outside.
"Cecilia" smiled at the crack in the door, winked playfully, then swiftly made a sandwich and returned to the room with the plate. "Alright, yesterday Kiana was our little princess, today I'll make you the princess!"
Watching Sirin finish the sandwich, even licking the sauce off her fingers, Luo Lin wiped the corner of her mouth with a napkin and said with a smile, "So, Sirin, come with me shopping."
"Shopping?!" The purple-haired girl looked puzzled. What does shopping mean?
Luo Lin patted Sirin's head compassionately, helped her put on clothes, and then dragged Siegfried, who was already immersed in playing games, to his feet.
"My dear wife! Let me go!"
"Come here!" Luo Lin effortlessly grabbed his ear, "Accompany our little princess for some shopping!"
"Shopping?! I'm coming too!" Kiana raised her hand, smiling.
Siegfried's face immediately fell, "Not again..."
Soon, they were dressed and arrived at a large bustling shopping mall.
"Look, delicious food!" "I want!" "New game!" "I want!" "Sirin, this ice cream is a new flavor, try it." Luo Lin handed Sirin a cone.
After hesitating for a moment, Sirin took a bite.
Cold and sweet... As the sweetness spread on her tongue, her eyes narrowed with happiness.
"Wow, a kitty!" Kiana appeared out of nowhere, holding a gray cat. The cat didn't seem to be afraid of people at all, its chubby pink paws moved slightly, seemingly helpless.
"Sister Sirin! Pet it!" The purple-haired girl looked at the fluffy white ball with expectant eyes, then reached out to rub the cat's fur. Feeling the smooth fur and hearing the comfortable purring from the cat's throat, her lips couldn't help but curl up.
"What beautiful clothes! Sirin, Kiana, come over here!" Luo Lin called out to the children as they entered the children's clothing store, dressing them in nice clothes.
Dressed up, Sirin, with her unique temperament, looked truly like a descended angel, radiant and captivating.
"You're really beautiful..." Luo Lin couldn't help but exclaim. Honestly, Sirin was quite pretty.
"Mom, look at me!" Kiana ran around Luo Lin, making airplane noises, seemingly pretending to be an airplane.
Watching the lively scene in front of her, Sirin tugged at her collar and gradually fell behind the queue.
This is... home...
The girl's eyes shook violently, and golden feathers appeared in her hand.
Am I really going to get involved in this?
Sirin raised her head, pointing her finger at the happy family of three, but her eyes were extremely conflicted, and the desire not to act prevailed.
However, the standby Fu Hua couldn't see this wavering.
"Luo Lin! Sirin is moving!"
"What?"
Before she could explain, Fu Hua felt a connection between herself and the problematic Fenghuang Down in Sirin's hand, so she decisively and swiftly acted.
"Click!"
The entire world seemed to pause!
This is...?
In the next moment, amidst Luo Lin and Fu Hua's shocked gazes, the problematic Feather held by Fu Hua itself replaced the feather in Sirin's hand.
Massive quantum fluctuations surged, engulfing their field of vision.
[Current Objective: Make Sirin feel like she's having a perfect day (Fail ×)]
[Warning, system error!]
...
A subtle wave spread throughout the Nagazora in the real world, enveloping the entire city.
Kiana rubbed her eyes, and golden light shone brightly in her pupils.
Raiden Mei clutched her chest, her breath quickening.
And Fu Hua, who should have been sleeping like a log, felt her eyelids tremble slightly.
