Eros, who had originally wanted to let Undine go, smiled cruelly upon hearing this:

"You don't think I can't do anything to you just because you hide behind your mother?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Eros pounced forward.

Wendini's eyes widened, and a look of panic appeared on her face.

"Ugh...Wow...Mom, help me!"

She grabbed the quilt tightly and shouted for help from her mother.

Eros pressed on Undine, trying to put his cold hands on Undine's warm neck.

Undine struggled desperately, and while dancing, she accidentally hurt Estelle more than once.

Looking at the two children twisted in a ball on her bed, Estelle's face grew darker and darker. Finally, she could no longer endure it and scolded them:

"Have you had enough of the commotion?"

Seeing that his mother seemed really angry, Eros and Undine stopped moving. Eros got off Undine and lay there obediently.

Wendini shrank her neck and laughed dryly at her mother.

"You're not young anymore, do you still think of yourself as children? You're so foolish!"

Estelle's pretty face was frosty as she angrily scolded her two ignorant children.

Eros winked at Wendini, who responded with an understanding look. Then, she turned around and hugged her mother, burying her face in her arms and said coquettishly:

"Okay! Mom! The best mom in the world, I know I was wrong. I promise not to mess around with Eros like this again. Please don't be angry, okay~"

"Being angry will cause wrinkles, Mom, you don't want wrinkles on your face, do you?"

“…”

Listening to Wendini's spoiled voice, the originally frosty face gradually softened, and finally snorted:

"Since you know that anger will cause wrinkles, why do you still make me angry?"

Wendini rubbed against her mother like a kitten and continued in a sweet voice:

"I really know I was wrong, mom, please forgive me, okay~"

Now that things have come to this, Estelle can't get angry even if she wants to.

She glanced at Eros lying outside the quilt, and her tone softened a lot:

"Come and sleep over here!"

Eros obediently went to lie down on the other side of his mother.

Over the years, he and Wendini have summed up several rules for dealing with their mother.

One is that their mother is easily influenced. If they act coquettishly and admit their mistakes when they are angry, Estelle will basically forgive them.

Secondly, when your mother is angry, it is best to be obedient and do whatever she tells you to do.

These two tricks have always worked for Eros and Undine, and sure enough, this time was no exception.

After Eros lay down, Estelle was really no longer angry.

Estelle looked at the two children lying on her left and right, then glanced at the wall clock and asked with a deliberately stern face:

"It's only early morning now. Why are you still awake and making trouble?"

There were still frequent lightning and thunder outside the window, and the room was sometimes dark and sometimes white. The curtains next to the window to block the light were of no use under the dazzling lightning.

Estelle's voice, accompanied by the thunder outside the window, reached their ears. Undine pursed her lips and said:

"We were woken up by the sudden thunder just now."

Estelle was speechless because she was also awakened by the thunder.

She was silent for a while, and then she said in a soothing tone:

"Go to sleep! I heard from someone that maintaining a normal routine like an ordinary person will help stabilize your own humanity."

The person Estelle was referring to was naturally Nemesis.

Out of reverence for the gods, she still didn't dare to call Nemesis' name directly, but used words like "that" and "he" instead.

Eros also said that he should just let his mother treat Nemesis normally.

It’s a pity that Estelle couldn’t do it at all.

In Estelle's opinion, it would be fine if she didn't know that the other party was actually a god, but after knowing that the other party was actually a god, every time she thought of the other party, her mind would unconsciously associate Him with a god walking on the earth.

Eros did not blame his mother for this. This was how the warlocks in this world were. Their reverence for the gods was deeply ingrained in their bones.

He wasn't worried, Nemesis could see that they knew she was a god.

It is normal for this world to respect the strong, especially the knowledge shown by Nemesis, which is far beyond that of ordinary extraordinary people.

This way, it would be more normal for Estelle and the others to respect her.

Wendini, who was sleeping on the other side, had already understood human nature after so many days. She rested her forehead on the cushion in front of her mother and said in a muffled tone:

"I don't know when my Sequence 5 potion will be fully digested."

Eros casually replied, "If you work hard, with your talent, it should only take about half a year."

"Half a year!" Wendini muttered to himself.

The three of them chatted intermittently, and gradually, the voices coming from the room became quieter and quieter, until they were completely drowned out by the thunder outside the window.

It was eight o'clock in the morning. After Eros had breakfast, he called Isabella to him.

Isabella understood why Eros called her over. Even though she was prepared, she couldn't help but feel surprised and nervous when the moment came.

Eros looked at Isabella, whose face showed both surprise and nervousness, and chuckled:

"The frequent lightning in the Thundering Sea will help you complete the Ocean Path Sequence 4 promotion ceremony as quickly as possible."

"Later, I will give you the finished potion I prepared, and take the lightning rod I made for you. Then you can try to perform the ceremony."

As expected, Eros called her over to help her advance to Sequence 4.

After getting confirmation from Eros, Isabella suppressed her emotions and thanked Eros.

She was about to be promoted to Sequence 4. How could she not be surprised? However, she was still a little nervous because she was worried that she would fail in the promotion and become a monster out of control and distorted.

Since they were talking about these things directly in the living room, Vivian, Nemesis and others on the other side also heard it.

Nemesis glanced at the dark clouds covering the sky and the lightning flashing through them, and nodded in agreement.

"This is indeed a great place to hold the Ocean Pathway Sequence 4 Promotion Ceremony."

Eros was not at all surprised at how Nemesis knew the requirements for the Sequence 4 ritual of the Ocean Path.

As a former god, it is quite normal for him to know some mid-series potion formulas.

The ritual requirement for Sequence 4 of the Ocean Path is that the promoted person must be struck by natural lightning one hundred times. After completing this requirement, he or she must take the Sequence 4 potion amidst the sound of thunder.

This is also the reason why Eros asked Isabella to bring the lightning rod with her.
