Bai Xi's greatest hobbies were shipping couples and reading fanfiction. She especially loved the popular ensemble manga "The Great Ensemble". Then... she transmigrated.
Good news:...
"I've heard that going out for a walk at night can improve one's mood. Shall we go out and have some fun?"
Roy looked at Maggie with distress. He probably sensed the lingering sadness on Maggie's body and suddenly came up with a suggestion.
"Now?"
Maggie was somewhat surprised.
"Hmm, even though it's nighttime, you can't fall asleep now, can you?"
Roy nodded vigorously, flashing a big smile.
Maggie thought about it and figured that as long as they were still on the temple grounds, they shouldn't encounter any danger. It was just a matter of taking a walk in the garden at night to relax.
Roy must have racked her brains to come up with such a way to comfort her; it would be too cruel of her to refuse.
"Hmm...okay."
Maggie smiled and pulled Roy in front of her, extending a finger to give Roy a high five; he was just too small.
The temple at night is serene and sacred, like a palace where the gods have fallen asleep. A huge statue of the god of light stands in the center of the temple, as if watching over the entire city of Santa Fe.
Before she knew it, Maggie left the garden and walked out to the square in front of the cathedral. The magic fountain was still working at night, and as long as the magic continued, the fountain would always be flowing.
She sat quietly on the platform beside the fountain, a gentle breeze blowing, and tiny droplets of water fell on her cheeks, carrying a slight coolness.
"This is the first time I've ever left my room late at night to see the temple at night."
Maggie couldn't help but sigh.
"It's really beautiful."
The temple itself was built to be magnificent and sacred, covering a vast area. Compared to the temple that was bustling with people during the day, the temple was now much quieter.
"Although the elemental spirits do not like the gods, they have to admit that after humans acquired the God of Light, the continent of Coral became a continent for humans."
Roy landed on Maggie's shoulder, her slightly childish voice quite endearing.
"Do the elemental spirits also feel that humans are encroaching on your living space?"
Maggie used a somewhat modern way of speaking, but Roy still understood what she meant. Her little face first wrinkled up, then she looked a little troubled.
"Actually... I don't know, because when I gained sentience, the Elemental King had already forbidden contact between humans and elemental spirits."
Roy's words piqued Maggie's curiosity, so she asked a question.
"Roy, how long have you been born?"
It's unclear how long it will take for the unclaimed elf to transform into the Roy we know today.
"Hehehe, actually I'm very young. According to your human age, I'm still a child under ten years old."
Roy spoke somewhat shyly, and the number he gave surprised Maggie. Although she had expected Roy to be a cub, it was still unexpected that he was younger than her.
After all, elemental spirits theoretically have an infinite lifespan.
"What about the little ghost?"
Maggie asked again.
"Hmm, I don't know, but he once told me that he existed since the Primitive Era and was once a very powerful high-ranking elf. He always says that he used to be very powerful, but I think he's just bragging."
Luo Yi pouted and said, then seemed to regret it and added another sentence.
"It's not impossible that he was really that good in the past; I'm just guessing."
Maggie chuckled and didn't press the matter further. She could tell that this was all Roy knew, and asking further wouldn't yield any more information.
The little ghost's mouth is quite tight.
A gentle breeze brushed against Maggie's temples as Roy quietly stayed by her side. Neither of them noticed the sphere with a pointed head, two small demon wings, and a heart-shaped tail flying towards them from behind.
Maggie didn't notice the sphere's presence until it flew straight up to her.
"!"
Maggie was startled and almost screamed.
Who could blame Maggie for not jumping up on the spot with her willpower when it was a little doll-like thing that looked like a demon, plus its signature succubus tail?
How can this thing appear in a temple?
Has the temple become a place where succubi can come and go as they please?!
Perhaps sensing Maggie's shock, the succubus ball revealed a smug expression and pointed its pointed tail at Maggie's forehead.
"You are the contractor for my child?"
Maggie was taken aback by the succubus's words and began to wonder if the succubus had mistaken her for someone else.
Before she could deny it, Loy on her shoulder suddenly flew to the succubus orb, looked it up and down, and then spoke with a face full of curiosity.
"I've seen you before."
The succubus ball gave Roy a look that said, "This kid is teachable," and patted him with its wings.
"Hmm, not bad, my stupid child."
Maggie, who was just watching from the sidelines, froze on the spot when she heard the succubus call Roy "child." Her eyes kept scanning the succubus and Roy, and her expression became extremely strange.
Even their physical form and race are different, how could a succubus give birth to an elemental spirit's child?!
This is absolutely mind-blowing!
Maggie felt her intelligence had been severely insulted and was about to interrupt when she heard Roy ask in a sincere tone.
Am I really your child?
Roy's words made Maggie's face turn completely black. She was about to call Roy back, afraid that it would be deceived by the succubus, when a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and the words got stuck in her throat.
In theory, demons are also invisible to elemental spirits, but this succubus orb can clearly communicate with Roy!
Moreover, this succubus was able to enter the temple without any obstacles.
Even the Demon King Safa dared not enter the temple.
This major discovery caused Maggie's brain to freeze for a moment, and she didn't even know whether she should stop them from talking.
Maybe they really do have some kind of relationship.
"Of course, of course, but you're not really my child. You only inherited a little bit of my power."
The succubus ball nodded seriously.
"Huh? So am I a demon?"
Roy, on the other hand, was quite composed. He wasn't angry or incredulous; instead, he asked with a look of surprise.
"You're not, you..."
The succubus ball flapped its wings, denying Roy's guess. Just as she was about to say something, her gaze suddenly fell on Maggie, her expression changing rapidly, and after a while, her brows furrowed slightly.
"How come you have a connection with my other son as well?"
The succubus ball's tone was full of confusion.
Maggie was full of questions. She hadn't even figured out what was going on, and now she was being dragged into this. Besides, how many sons did this succubus actually have?
Who is your other son?
Maggie was so flustered that she didn't know what expression to make, so she could only ask with a blank face.
She always felt like she was involved in something incredible.
The succubus ball didn't answer, but flapped its small wings and flew around Maggie twice, 'admiring' her while marveling at her.
"This is the first time I've ever met a human like you. No wonder Roy likes you."
