Chapter 401 401: Laying The Cards On The Table – Part 2

"I can grant free will to it. However, at the moment it is partially under my control." Luan calmly said: "Because it was created by just a very little energy from one of my cells, it only has 1 day to live at most."

"Too bad…" Cristina sighed. She liked this tiny little creature.

Not only did she, but Catharina and Ingrid also find it adorable and wanted to hold it in the palm of their hand. Even Amanda and Maira wanted that.

"If you like it, I can create it to last a few years." Luan understood that girls liked things like that, especially when he was such a small and cute little dragon. So he offered, as it didn't cost much if he made the proper preparations necessary to expend just a little of a cell's energy.

"Is it okay to create something like this?" Maira was more concerned about her son's life.

"Yes, if I prepare beforehand, it's easy," Luan said calmly.

They then announced what they wanted. Even Amanda and Maira.

It was like having a pocket dragon.

"Okay, getting down to business." Luan spoke in a serious tone: "Now you can already imagine how powerful an Emperor can be, apart from that I am a little special compared to others, since I am Emperor of Body and Qi, not that, I did that while I arrived at the limit, creating the biggest foundation I could."

They knew that he was already more powerful than many Emperors even when he was still in the Fifth Order, so they weren't too surprised to hear that.

He went back to explaining about the clone he created, and the real reason he did it.

Before Luan can continue, Ingrid, who didn't want him to be misunderstood, starts talking about Nora.

"As you all know." Ingrid starts talking when interrupting Luan: "Nora is the mother of Lenore, the woman who lived almost a thousand years with Luan and had a child with him through blood because of her vampire race and her lineage."

"She loved him even when he disappeared, she spent years trying to find him, she did a lot to track him down, not believing when everyone said he died..." As she spoke, Amanda mostly had a bad feeling.

"Although I felt very sorry for her, I couldn't help being selfish and wanting Luan all to myself." Ingrid takes a deep breath and stops when her mother interrupts.

"It's not your fault, nor is it wrong to want to monopolize the man you love." Amanda said softly with a gentle smile, "Don't push yourself too hard, you didn't do anything wrong."

"I know, I understand that." Ingrid gave a small smile, then she explained about how she spent 50 years with Luan in the secret realm and how time passes differently.

At this point, she cried a little. She said that after spending 50 years with Luan in the secret realm, she could understand Nora a little better, and said that if it was her instead of Nora, even if she was just a lover, she would still prefer it if it was possible to stay with the man. that she loves most in the world.

Amanda hugs her and tells her she's silly, she doesn't need to feel that way, and that she was too kind and should be more selfish.

Ingrid doesn't deny it but says that no matter how jealous and envious she felt afterward, she wanted Luan to accept Nora as a woman.

That was what surprised everyone the most.

Amanda wept at the thought of her daughter's kindness and foolish actions: "Fool, you are so silly..."

Ingrid waited for them to calm down before continuing to speak.

Ingrid adds that she felt that even though Luan did nothing to doubt him when she saw him look at Nora, there was still love in his eyes. That's why she came up with a plan with Nora, talking to her and then sharing the vows she once made with Luan.

Everyone was shocked, of course, Amanda, Maira, and Catharina mostly felt that she was too kind for doing something like that, even a little too silly.

Luan basically swore an oath never to cheat on her, if she didn't share that oath with Nora, Nora would never be able to be together with Luan, but she gave it up so easily...

Amanda was already speechless.

Sebastian was silent from beginning to end.

However, he felt that this stepdaughter was great. Someone willing to do what she did... he couldn't believe there were that many people, especially since she spent 50 years with the man she loved most.

After spending so much time with him, Sebastian believed the love had deepened and the lust for possession had deepened as well.

But he did all this for Luan and Nora. She let go of a sacred oath so the man she loves could have another woman besides her...

Sebastian let out a long breath.

Ingrid explains that she actually felt jealous when she knew Luan was next to Nora at that moment and not her, but it was bearable. She then talks about what Luan was willing to do despite his flaws and even being able to be much more powerful, perhaps even the most powerful Emperor in the history of the Tower.

She explains what Luan explained to her.

At that point, Luan made a joke, saying that when he went through the celestial tribulation, his body was redesigned, and became a virgin again and told Amanda that her daughter devirginized him.

"Luan?!" Ingrid gets shy, she screams his name in embarrassment while punching him in the chest, and everyone laughs.

"Haha, but isn't it true?" Luan laughed as he let her hit him: "Knowing that I practically recreated my body, didn't you get more excited?"

The heavy mood from before was lightened.

Amanda says it all sounded too complicated, that she would think of the other him as an older brother or a twin.

"You are my son-in-law, I want to think of it that way, as for the other you, your clone, whatever it is, I prefer to think of it as your brother." She said.

Luan nodded, and said she could think like that, he also said that was his intention, to be married to Ingrid and stay with her for the rest of his life with that body, while he, who is a version of his previous life, would stay with Nora.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm happy, really." Ingrid said with a smile, "My jealousy, envy, everything is gone, I'm serious, I just want to be with him, have more time with the man I chose to spend the rest of my life with."

"I understand." Amanda sighed, and smiled helplessly.

It still didn't feel right, but Amanda saw that her daughter looked happy like that, so she was happy too.

Honestly, Maira likes Ingrid a lot and she hasn't personally met her other daughter-in-law yet, so she had neutral feelings about it, as she wanted her son to be happy.
