When the cub opened the door and saw Osiris, he was so surprised that he froze on the spot.

Osiris's gaze fell on him. Although he didn't understand why his child had become a human, he was certain that this was Chiyuki.

The child he desperately wanted to keep is still alive and healthy, living happily in a corner of the world, not as he had imagined, suffering hardship and loneliness.

This was the greatest comfort to Osiris.

Osiris was barely able to contain himself; his fins were practically bursting with excitement, but he managed to restrain his emotions and reach out to the cub:

"Come to Daddy."

The next second, Osiris's two arms were severed.

The monster father's hand covered the cub's eyes, while his other pale arm attacked relentlessly, fully revealing the monster father's rage at that moment.

"Human traffickers."

"Monster Dad cursed."

The monster father can now use such profound human language with ease, which shows that he truly detests Osiris's act of stealing his cub.

Osiris wouldn't stand still. The mermaid's voice rang out, and healing magic rapidly healed Osiris's wounds. He wasn't about to be outdone:

"You're the one who trafficked mermaids! That's my child, my baby!"

The older brother then joined the fray: "Our child has always been our child, don't confuse right and wrong!"

Osiris had never fought such a bizarre monster before, and with them working together, he gradually found himself at a disadvantage. But he would not give up. He had finally found his child, how could he possibly give up!

As he uttered the calls of a mermaid to her cub, he stretched out his sharp claws and ripped his brother's silken threads.

Hearing Osiris's call, the cub peeked out from its monster father's arms and saw Osiris covered in blood.

"No……"

How could the cub want his family to fight? His desire to be with Osiris was too strong, so the cub felt a burning sensation in his chest and uncontrollably flew into the air. Under the gaze of everyone present, he transformed into a mermaid once again.

The little guy shook its chubby tail in a daze, about to fall to the ground in the next second. Although the monster dad and the others were surprised and suspicious, they did not hesitate at this moment and reached out to catch the cub.

However, Osiris, who was faster, beat him to it.

As Osiris embraced the cub, he swiftly pushed his limits and reshaped his arm.

Seeing Osiris's serious expression, the child thought he was a little angry, so he didn't dare to speak.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Osiris did after regenerating his arm was to lift the cub up, just like he lifted Simba in The Lion King, to show it to everyone:

"This is my child, I'm not a mermaid trafficker!"

Osiris is constantly being slandered, and it seems he has harbored resentment for a long time.

The child, lifted up and awkwardly facing his monster father: ...

Like a dried-out little salted fish forcibly lifted up, the child could only honestly say:

"No, it's Dad's fault..."

"It's been too long, the little one has been gone for a very, very long time, and there are several fathers..."

"Daddy," the cub called out to the monster.

Then he turned and called to Osiris, "He's also a father."

The older brother immediately thought of a possibility: "Little one, you don't just have one dad? Is this your dad in another version of the story?"

The cub nodded, meaning roughly the same thing.

The older brother glanced at Zhou Jinze again, realizing that what Zhou Jinze had revealed last night wasn't a lie. There really would be others trying to take the cubs from them.

The matter was clarified, but both sets of parents remained calm.

Osiris turned the cub in his hand over so that it was facing him:

"Sweetie, you're going home with Daddy, right?"

The cub made "hmm" sounds, which didn't sound like agreement, but rather like it was struggling with how best to play dead.

But Osiris doesn't care. After all, anyone who has been a parent of a cub knows that the flower language of a cub is "first come, first served."

He picked up the baby and said, "Let's go home."

The monster father was so anxious that he wanted to rush forward again, but he didn't want to fight in front of his cubs, so he stretched out his arm to block their way, his voice becoming urgent:

"Baby, love Daddy..."

"I love Dad, I won't leave..."

The cub had no choice but to look to its older brother for help. However, the older brother was a cunning fellow who didn't care about the life or death of others except for his own cub. He was happy to take advantage of any loopholes.

Fortunately, Zhou Jinze was there. He walked over and said:

"Why don't you share the cubs' time equally? The cubs can take turns staying in your territories for a week, and then rotate when it's time."

Such a tiny cub is not suitable to be fought over by monsters as a trophy. It is so fragile that it would tremble with fear at the slightest drop of blood. It can only be divided equally; there is no other way.

Despite thinking this, the monster father softened his heart.

But he remained uncompromising on time:

"Our little one is first and foremost family, then other instances... According to the rules, it's first come, first served..."

Osiris: "Well, you've already reunited with the baby, now it's my turn."

The monster father was extremely anxious, but he was always a little slow to speak, and could only say pitifully:

"Not long, just one day, not long at all."

When the cub saw its monster father like this, it immediately teared up and tried to comfort him, but Osiris used his own methods to show the cub the current merfolk.

“My dear, our people are leaderless and have been longing for the king’s return for a long time…”

Seeing the miserable state of his monster father and mermaid father, the cub felt anxious and wished he could turn into two of them, but he had no such ability. In his desperation, he could only pull at his hair and sob.

Well, once the baby started crying, the fathers were completely at a loss. They immediately reached a consensus and, following Zhou Jinze's suggestion, took turns comforting the baby from both sides.

After sobbing for a long time, the child finally said, "Baby loves Daddy."

"I love you so much."

Osiris: "Okay, okay, I understand."

How could Osiris not understand the cub's feelings? Besides, for the cub, having someone accompany and love him along the way is much better than being all alone, isn't it?

Osiris could only console himself with this thought, and then said to his monster father:

“I will take the cub back to the throne and cleanse the royal court. After it is done, I will send him back and we will take turns raising him.”

The monster father nodded, gently touched the cub's face, and then turned around to pack a large suitcase full of things for the cub.

The baby is such a crybaby; he's about to cry again when he sees the clothes, dolls, and snacks his dad packed for him.

Osiris had already given in, and fearing that his eyes would get swollen from crying, she quickly comforted him:

"It's only for a few days, you'll be back soon, and we'll see each other often in the future. Besides, you have two dads who love you, so you'll get more love in return, which is exactly what you deserve."
