Chapter 1164 That’s My Daughter
Just as Lux was about to open the door of Queen Rhiannon's bed chambers, he heard the crying of a child from the other side, which almost melted his heart.
Aurora looked at him in confusion and wondered if he was going to enter the door or not. Perhaps feeling impatient, she reached out her hand and opened the door on her own before looking at the Half-Elf with a smile.
"Thank you," Lux said as he entered the room. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt that his entire body had become as heavy as lead. Each step took him so much effort, making him wonder if the adrenaline rush he had felt during his mad escape from the lower Layers of the Abyss had faded, leaving him feeling weak and lethargic.
"Who is it?" Queen Rhiannon, who had sensed the presence of someone entering the room, asked.
She still hadn't fully recovered from her long labor, and she was currently breastfeeding Dia because the child was hungry.
At that moment, she heard a familiar voice, which put her heart at ease.
"It's me," Lux said as Aurora parted the bed curtain. "I'm back, Rhiannon."
The Succubus Queen looked at the Half-Elf's exhausted face, making her feel a slight ache in her heart. However, when her eyes landed on the young lady in his arms, she felt her heart skip a beat.
"Aurora..." Queen Rhiannon muttered as she gazed at her first daughter, whom Lux had successfully rescued a few days ago from the 111th Layer of the Abyss.
Aurora didn't react to Queen Rhianon calling out to her because her gaze was focused on the baby girl, who was currently breastfeeding in her arms.
Aurora then shifted her gaze from the baby to Queen Rhiannon. "Can I hold her?" Aurora asked.
Queen Rhiannon nodded. "Of course. But, let her finish feeding first. Don't worry, it won't take long."
For the first time since she was born, something else stirred inside Aurora's heart aside from the affection she felt toward the Half-Elf who saved her.
The Half-Elf nodded in understanding and left the room with Aurora. Queen Rhiannon, on the other hand, shook her head because their family tree was a bit messed up at the moment.
Since it was complicated, the Succubus Queen decided that it would be best to ignore it for the time being since it was not that important.
Suddenly, the castle shook, making the Queen arch an eyebrow.
However, after realizing that the source of the shaking was coming from one of the guest rooms, a faint smile appeared on her face as she looked at the sleeping baby in her arms.
"It seems that Aurora is taking the lead," Queen Rhiannon muttered. "That's my daughter, alright."
The Succubus Queen didn't tell Lux that if he were to make love with a Transcendent Succubus who was still a maiden, her Yin Essence would flood his body, giving him incredible strength and power.
Truth be told, it was enough for the Half-Elf to break through to the Supreme Rank, especially since any kind of boost to his stats and power would be multiplied by three due to him being a Progenitor of the Heaven's Necromancer Job Class.
The castle shook for a second time, then a third.
It shook a few more times, making even the Succubi living in the castle wonder what the hell was happening.
Fortunately, Queen Rhiannon informed them that their guests were just having a very passionate round of lovemaking, making the Succubi blush.
They didn't mind being roughed up by someone as handsome as Lux, but they also knew that he was already their Queen's property, so they could no longer touch him.
Just as everyone was getting used to the shaking, something unexpected happened.
A burst of power reverberated through the entirety of the castle, making the Succubi think that they were under attack.
However, their Queen calmed them down and simply told them that Lux was undergoing a breakthrough.
In just a short span of time, the Half-Elf, who had just become a Saint not too long ago, had become a Supreme, granting him powers that even he was not prepared to have.
