On the way back, Ziyu lost interest and lay motionless on Lis's head.
"By the way, Ziyu, where exactly do you live? In the sky?"
"Hmm~, how did you know?"
"Can people live in the sky?"
"You're so silly, of course it's those floating islands!" Zi Yu pointed to the clouds in the sky.
"Isn't that a cloud?"
"Yeah, the floating island is hidden inside the clouds! Ahh~, I want to go back!"
"Will there be something good to eat when we get back?"
"Uh, no. They all look down on me, nobody plays with me."
She really is a quirky angel; my Xue'er is still the best. She's obedient and well-behaved, but a little shy and controlling, always wanting to hold me.
Huo Yu, that girl, is too lively; she can't sit still. Xian Xian is more well-behaved, but she's too aloof; shouldn't water-type characters be gentle?
After briefly comparing himself to his four companions, Luo Fan sighed and realized that his body was so tightly hugged by Xue'er that it was deformed.
"Xue'er is still the best!"
"Mmm~!"
Luo Fan's true form returned to Lis's embrace, only to hear the little angel's disgusted expression.
"Master, throw it away quickly! That black thing is too dirty."
"Who are you calling dirty?" Luo Fan retorted, unconvinced; he was just dark-skinned.
"Ugh, it's you again, you bad guy." Hearing the familiar voice, the little guy started complaining again. "Awoo~, don't come any closer!"
Luo Fan stretched out his tentacles, intending to tease the little guy, but ended up scaring the little angel to tears.
Oh no, this guy is obsessed with looks, he'll be hard to deal with from now on.
Luo Fan decisively returned to Ellie's shoulder, temporarily abandoning his intention to tease the little one.
“Liz, your little fairy is so cute.” Daisy leaned closer, looking at the purple feather in her arms with stars in her eyes. “Can I touch it?”
After hesitating for a moment, Liz reached out her little hand.
Zi Yu didn't seem to mind being touched, especially when Daisy handed her a small, light yellow magic core.
"Wow, this is delicious!" He swallowed it in one gulp and licked his lips with lingering satisfaction.
“Daisy, isn’t that a light-type magic core?” Ellie noticed something.
"Yes, I asked my mom for it this morning. But light-type magic cores are very rare, and I only got one."
"So it will be difficult to raise Liz's pets in the future?" Ellie asked Luo Fan inwardly.
"Yeah, he's lazy and loves to eat. It feels like I've contracted with a Mr. Ge."
"What should we do then? We can't let her hold her sister back."
"We'll go back to Sacred Heart City and see if we can still buy a light-type magic core. We'll let her follow Liss around most of the time; a pet can't very well sleep in when its master is meditating, right?"
"That's all we can do." Ellie sighed. It's good to have your own pet, even though she, as its owner, has nothing to do with it and you still have to beg it.
A few days later, the Duke finally returned, looking extremely tired.
"Is everything alright in Sacred Heart City?" the Duchess asked, rubbing her husband's shoulder.
"Things are alright for now. We've dealt with a lot of people and finally wiped out all the spies left over there. It's just that the person in charge of that area has disappeared without a trace."
"Many families have been implicated. The one in the capital is furious. I heard that a duke was killed, and his relatives were also purged. Even the palace was cleansed."
"Is it that serious? Where is the woman?"
"She was taken to the capital. We extracted a lot of information from her, including information about the Mingguang Cult. I didn't expect she still had connections with this organization. She probably forgot how she got to Sacred Heart City."
The lady knew that the woman had been hunted down and it was only thanks to the Duke's intervention that her life was spared. She never imagined it was just a ruse by the other party.
"Madam is the best. After the investigation, we found out that she was actually the mistress of several men. No wonder she's so rich. By the way, have you put away all her things?"
"They're all with Xiaoxue; after all, it was she and that slime who found them."
"Well, that's fine too. I don't want that money."
The Duchess was speechless. She didn't want to give it to me. She didn't even have that much money herself; her current assets were less than those of a pet.
"By the way, I've temporarily closed the dungeon while you were away."
"Ah, why? Because it's a gold mine."
"Your daughter has completely drained me!" The Duchess then recounted in detail what had happened, including her son's advancement.
"So much? That's another windfall! His Majesty gave me quite a few rewards this time, including a manor in the capital. Once things are more stable, I'll take you there for a few days."
"Mmm~!" The Duchess immediately beamed with joy.
Carey and Daisy stayed nearby in the hall, listening intently.
"Father, I want to go to the capital too! I want to go play with my second brother!" Kerry shouted.
"We'll talk about it later! Does Daisy want to go?" Looking at his obedient daughter, the Duke asked another question.
"Yes, I'll go with Ellie and the others then."
“Alright, no problem!” The Duke nodded. Ellie was his family’s lucky star; ever since she arrived, all sorts of good things had happened to her.
"Ugh~, Father, you're unfair! I'm going back to sleep!" Kerry complained and ran away.
......
“Ellie, your pet has been a great help to us this time, and we would like to give you a reward. We wonder what you would like to hear about.” The Duke looked at Ellie sitting next to his daughter.
Ellie was confused and was still thinking of refusing when she heard Luo Fan's analysis.
“Ellie, accept it. That woman's case must involve a lot of things, and if you don't accept it, you'll offend her. Just take some light-type magic cores, they'll suit Lis well.”
"Uncle Duke, I want some light-element magic cores. Liss just formed a contract with a pet, but its level is still too low."
After several days of effort, Luo Fan finally gave up on this lazybones.
While Liss meditated, she slept. While Liss practiced magic, she dozed off. Even when Liss helped her condense light elements, she couldn't be bothered to do it.
She would only move and complain to Liz when Luo Fan scared her.
"Oh, that's nothing. I collected quite a few light-element crystal cores during my trip, so I'll give them all to you." He then handed over a magic bag.
"Thank you, Uncle!" Ellie immediately put the baby in her arms, but Luo Fan couldn't help but take a look.
Not bad, nearly a hundred, plus some basic magic cores, that should last for a while.
Back in his room, Luo Fan tilted his head and smiled at the little angel on Lis's head, making her shudder even in her dream.
Ziyu opened her small eyes, looked around, and found that apart from that dark creature, the surroundings were safe, so she closed her eyes again.
"Purple Feather, look what this is?" Luo Fan held up a light-element crystal core and waved it in front of the little angel.
Sensing the familiar presence, the little foodie promptly opened his eyes and flew over in a flash.
He snatched the crystal core from Luo Fan's hand and stuffed it into his mouth. It crunched perfectly – just the right taste. Just as he was about to turn back, he noticed Luo Fan had pulled out another one from somewhere.
However, she failed this time and angrily spun around in the air.
"Ouch~, you big bad guy, you bullied me!" Zi Yu cried out, looking for Lis to help. Little did she know, her master had long been tamed by Luo Fan and was even more obedient than she was.
"Ziyu, if you agree to one condition, you'll get to eat this kind of good stuff from now on!" At this moment, Luo Fan looked exactly like someone who was about to abduct an underage girl.
"Really? There will be more in the future?" Zi Yu hesitated. "Tell me your conditions first."
"From now on, you can meditate with your master whenever she meditates."
"Really, is this all?" When she meditates, all she needs to do is spread her wings, which is not much different from sleeping, except that it takes some effort to keep her upright.
This guy is so stupid, hehe~.
"Of course." Luo Fan then took out more than a dozen crystal cores and continued to tempt the little angel. "Look, I still have so many. As long as you are obedient, they will all be yours from now on."
"Mmm, Ziyu is very well-behaved." The little angel blinked her little eyes, and drool dripped from the corner of her mouth.
"You little brat, you think you can fight me with this level of skill?" Switching to another clone, Luo Fan finally relaxed.
The journey of educating little angels has finally begun!
