Chapter 1581 When Your Wives Are Stronger
Varian's lips trembled and no sound came out of his throat.
Yeah, how could he ask if they're fine now?
A thousand years!
Even though a normal divine ranker wouldn't mind a thousand-year seclusion, they weren't normal. They just entered their 20s and never went into a even decade old closed doors practice.
Most of all—
"You bastard!"
Varian was pulled into a hug before he could respond. And two fists kept hitting his back incessantly.
"Idiot!"
"Scoundrel!"
"A thousand years!"
"I don't know!"
"I hate you!"
His shoulder dampened with warm tears. The fists hitting him loosened and hugged his waist tight, as if they would never let go. Updated chapters at novelhall.com
The snow mountains began to melt at a visible rate and it began to rain.
"Haaa~"
Varian sighed deeply, feeling both sorry and regretful.
'Huh?'
Something hit him from behind and then someone hugged him violently while biting the other shoulder.
"This is the last time."
Sia's voice was a bit too scary despite everything he'd lived through.
"If you try this once more," She brought her lips closer to his ear and said in a tone that showed no hesitation. "I'll lock you in the palace and raise you myself. Understood?"
"..."
Varian was about to nod because of the mood but quickly controlled himself.
What's this girl even planning?
Varian turned around and saw Sia.
Her face looked as beautiful as ever. She truly didn't seem to age a single day since he left.
That beautiful little face was looking at him with a smile and tears.
"Is this your millenium long plan?" Pulling her cheeks, Varian asked. "Locking me up?"
"What about my huggggg~"
A voice echoced through the melting snow and a body reached him before he could respond.
As Miss Calamity was about to hug him, Isadora held her by the back of her neck.
"B-Brother-in-law, hug! Hugs!"
Aurora waved her arms, trying to break free but Isadora's grip was too strong.
Varian didn't even know what to say.
"Lady, I'm busy with my wives. I'll meet guests later."
Aurora's face froze and her eyes widened before they started to water. "G-Guest! I am a guest? I'm your sister-in-law! I'm your guest? Guest? A gu—mfff!"
Sia closed her mouth and gave her a very peaceful smile. In a voice that Varian couldn't hear, she said in a half-threatening tone.
'Little bitch, we four reserved the four sides of the hug. There is no space left. Bug off!'
Such words might've caused antagonism between the two previously but with their grown familiarity, Miss Calamity didn't feel offended by Sia's posessiveness.
She even replied.
'If four sides are reserved, isn't the above empty? I can hug brother-in-law's head, ehehehe~'
Her words caused the other three to turn toward her and their gazes turned cold.
'E-Eh? Wha-What?'
Sarah rubbed her wrist, Enigma silently brandished a stick and Isadora took out a whip.
'Y-You! You crazy bitches!'
Miss Calamity ran away like lightning, her trace nowhere to be found.
The interaction happened at the speed of divine rankers and Varian couldn't even grasp what happened.
"Let's go home now, shall we?" Sia hugged his left arm and said in a cheerful voice, like a bird chirping.
"We have to make up for some lost time at least." Sarah grabbed his right arm and hummed.
"...There is a small list to be filled." Enigma unfolded a sheet of paper and it rolled out for at least a mile.
"..."
When Varian looked at her in disbelief, Enigma said in a calm tone. "Oh, that's Isadora's list. It's only half as long as Sarah's and Sia's. Mine is four times as long."
"It's always the silent ones." Varian lowered his head. He decided to spend a few days at home and convince them.
While the thousand year seperation was sad, he still couldn't forget the scene he witnessed beyond that door.
God Emperor...that man...
"W-Wait, my powers!"
Only when he tried to secretly practice a week later did Varian realize how naive his thoughts were.
