If this bastard is a cousin of brother Evan,then brother Evan.... is he a prince?
Seriously....if he didn't eat my branch,my value will be just my beauty. No one will risk their life for a beautiful ornament.
" And...the leaf of this tree can prolong life."
Damn it!!!
It's not a verb,it's an interjection..
"My father is dying.That's why, as a high level mage,I was send here to search for the jade tree.If he die,the battle for the throne will be very violent."
Won't you cover up anymore?
You want to come clean?
"I haven't told you my identity. I'm the second prince of the Bright Sun Empire. How is it? Brother is awesome,right?"
"Who is rare? I'm also a princess. Did I ask you to call me awesome? "
"Yes,you're my sister.So you're a princess."
I decided to hide only the details of my life,not my life frame. My beauty in both form is already dangerous, adding up the bloodline upgrade and longevity will get me kill sooner or later.
The king's life or death is nothing to do with me. I'm not a holy mother to bet sincerity with my life. This cheap brother is good to me now but this didn't mean he'll be good to me forever after getting his hand on my leaves.
What if he want the whole tree later?
"I'll come with you next time brother. You come and fetch me when you have free time later. I'll wait for you here."
He pauses and thinks for a while.
"Well,it's better this way. Although I want to take you with me,if I were to pull into the battle of throne,it's dangerous for you."
He gave me a pendant with a moon symbol before he left. He put it on my neck himself. His team is just like Daniel's pack. I heard about them from their mouths but haven't seen them in a flesh. At least, I've seen the greyhound pack from afar.
I don't understand how we become like this. I did nothing to win his favour. Getting along for a month is his initiative, not mine.
Ah,thinking about this make my not so bright head hurts.
I called out pegasus to patrol the territory. That unicorn is not much of a fighter but he's qualified as a guard. He can run back and alarm me if he can't beat the trespassers. I haven't take my roots out for a breather in a month. I even feel dehydrated. It's psychological.
This time transformation is very comfortable for me. The absorption of magic particles is also unusually smooth. My instinct told me I should sleep and I did it.
This sleep took a year for me to woke up.
When I wake up,I find myself with two fruits.
To make me autistic,they are ripened. My branches are shaking wildly because I'm so scared.
And then....they fell together from me...
Pegasus came running when he felt my awakening from the deep sleep. I don't have the heart to care about him. All I want to know is.... Am I matured? I transform into the human form.
Haha....still the peerless shortie..
I was like a three-no product. I don't know when to produce,when will it expires and there is no instruction manual to rely on. I cursed the group of knights again in my heart. If not for them,how will I fall into this deep pit.
Veronica came back from hunting at that moment.
"Yo...Wake up? Oh..these fruits fell down."
Veronica sniffed the fruits curiously.
"Master, she sniffed them more than a thousand times while you're in sleep."
"I'm worried about you. Who told you to sleep like a log? You didn't tell me about you can bear fruits. I nearly pull you out.If not for your horse guaranteed me that you'll be fine,I'll really do it."
The fuits crack like the eggs under our watchful eyes.
" When did they appear on me?"
" Oh..the flowers bloomed in two weeks. The fruits appeared in the fourth week. So your pregnancy time is about eleven months...heehee"
"Shut up you horse!!Don't speak if you can't."
Two heads pop out from the cracked fruits. The annoying thing is that, they are bigger than me, the mother tree. I see them clearly only after they got up and try to walk towards me.
They are both males!!!!!
"AHHHHH..."
What bad thoughts can a mother have? I screamed but my hands casted the life magic to cover up my stupid sons with clothes.
Veronica rolled her eyes..
"Why did you mother and sons love to show up in birthday suits infront of me? "
" They're just born,okay? It's not like we did it internationally. Come here sons..."
I want to know if they can walk steadily. In eleven months,they grow up in the fruits so fast. They're already in the middle stage teenage growth period. If I let them grow on the tree for another three or four months,my sons will be born in their twenties.
They stand up shakily, then put one foot infront of other for the first time. Fortunately, as an upright animals,their body's instinct told them:no matter which leg they took a step with,they know how to walk.
When thay arrived infront of me, they can walk naturally.
"Mother.."
First time becoming a mother....
It's great. Next,I should give them names. But who can tell me....
"Why did their hair colour... half silver and half grey? And why did their eyes...one blue and one gold?"
I'm doubting my eyes now. The two sons I got in my sleep without hard work look nothing like me. They look like...wait.... Veronica and Daniel.. half and half??? Daniel has grey and white fur... and golden eyes. Veronica has ocean blue eyes and silver white fur.
" What have you done when I'm sleeping?? Pegasus, tell me what strange things they did!!!"
"Actually, when you are in the flowering period,they're very curious. So they sniffed around the two flowers once in a while. They stopped this behavior after the flowers turned into fruits."
Their sniffing gave my children their features. What if the flowers are touched? Will my fruits turn into their clones?
I just remember the chinese novel I read in heaven.
Imagine yourself...
I'm in the flowering period,blooming in my room quietly ....
The rich, powerful and drunk man got into the wrong room,which is my room..
He saw the beautiful tree but didn't think much of it.
He thought it's a jade ornaments putting in by the flattering lackeys of his..
But the flowers are so beautiful and the floral scent is so good that even his drunken state is sobering up slowly...
He want to know if the flower is perfumed, so he touched and looked at the seven flowers thoroughly....
Then,he found nothing except the tree and flowers are very beautiful,suited his taste...
He thought he would buy this ornament tree after he woke up..
But...the tree is gone when he woke up..
Five years later...
He found a beauty with seven childs...
He didn't know this woman but the children were the exact mini version of him...
He trapped the beauty in his arms saying...
"Woman,you stole my seeds.."
[Boom**one birth, seven treasures]
Geez...
The picture is so beautiful that I got goosebumps all over my body..
And I got another version...
The tall,rich and powerful man didn't like his fiancèe...
He was a workaholic so his secretary also had to work in her flowering period..
Because time is not enough for her to go back and forth between the office and home, she stayed in the company,planted herself in a random flower pot to sleep...
When he got drunk from the social event and return to his office, he touched the flowers of the secretary who is acting as a money tree in a random flower pot...
The secretary resigned before the child is born...
Five years later..
That man married his fiancèe because she offered him the marriage in name only...
She thought she could soften the man's cold heart slowly, but she saw the ex-secretary of her husband with three children ...
The children looked exactly like her husband's childhood photos...
She accused her as third party and dealed her with cruelty...
The man also suspected that the ex-secretary is a wicked woman who stole his innocence...
The secretary was so annoyed after their repeated accusings that she slapped their face with paternity results...
They didn't expect that none of the childs are his...
That man ego was wounded...
He got divorced and pursued the secretary like crazy by occasionally saying the classic lines....such as
"Woman, you're playing with fire.."
"Woman,you successfully caught my attention. "
Exciting... right?
Why did my safe places become narrower and narrower? I sincerely feel that a world capable of creating the anomaly like me is already a anomaly itself.
Some things are better experienced in dreams,not in reality.
I felt the great malices from the world.
" I hope I won't fall asleep next times"
Except for hair and eyes, their faces look good,worthy of my childs.
Their ears are long and pointed just like mine. I touched my ears. Oh....this is the latest change on my body. Nothing changed but my human ears turned into classic elf ears...long and pointy.
I don't know if there were elves like us in this world. One thing I'm sure of is..... if I meet another humans later,they won't mistake me with human again.
My two sons didn't look the same.
The taller one has a cool face and the shorter one has the sunny face.
I named the taller one Liam Silverleaf and the sorter one Noah Silverleaf.
Starting from today, I'm Gloria Silverleaf and we're the Silverleaf family. I didn't think of this at first but we need a surname to clear the confusion between our lineage and other elves.
All the other elf mother tree look like a normal tree with brown trunk and green leaves. But I'm mutated because my divinity is from another world.
[Congratulations for starting a family..... Merit progress bar is turned on...]
[You got 200 merits for giving two lives for your family]
[Family ancestry is turned on. You can look at the status of your offsprings anytime..]
I frowned at the sudden voice in my consciousness.
"What are you?System? Come out.."
Nothing come out.
"System? System? "
Well,nothing...
I thought I got a system to take off like the protagonists.
I searched inside my consciousness inch by inch. This time I found a book in it.
I took out the book and turn over the cover. The first page have the familiar handwriting of Mama.
[ Darling...
When you read this letter,we won't be with you anymore. ]
Why did I feel this sentence is strange?
[Didn't we say we'll create a golden finger for you before you go?
This book is the golden finger we created. We copied it from the book of life and death and the book of merit accountant. It can help you keeping track of merits and your kingdom. It's not a system you've seen in the novels but it only lack a spirit to look like one.You can store none living things in the book.
We can't interfere in this world anymore. We hope you'll return safely.You know we love you, right? See you soon darling... ]
I love you too....I said it in my heart.
I turned over the next page. This page is the merit progress bar.
The 200 merits I just got is just a drop in the ocean. The progress bar can even go backwards if my descendants are not a good things.
The third page is my lineage or family tree.
