"Okay, little balloon, go back and rest. Don't hide food in your bed, I'll get you a little refrigerator to store it, okay?"
The little one, now a smart kid who knows cakes have a short shelf life, asked his older brother with some concern, "Okay, how long can it be kept? The cake will spoil."
The older brother wasn't sure either. Logically, human food in dungeons should remain in its original state, without rotting or spoiling. Since it's entirely part of the dungeon, appearing and disappearing out of thin air like a game instance, many people suspect that dungeon food might be contaminated. Therefore, except in special circumstances, they usually choose to eat the food they brought themselves.
But he didn't know how to explain this to the cub, so in the cub's eyes, even the reliable older brother was powerless.
He looked at the cake with some disappointment, wondering if he would ever see that person again.
Seeing the little boy's disappointed expression, the older brother suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked the younger boy, "Little one, do you still want to save the cake for someone else?"
The cub nodded, looking very serious: "I want to save this for my future wife."
The cub's memories were hazy, but he still remembered that he was destined to have a very handsome "wife" who would come looking for him when he grew up.
They will definitely come.
The cub's words shocked the three monsters present.
Even the bracelet on the cub's wrist was twisted into various shapes from surprise, as if it had been mercilessly struck by some unexpected event.
And this unexpected turn of events was caused by that blond-haired bastard who, without anyone knowing, took advantage of their vulnerability and seduced their innocent little boy!
A loud bang.
Homes break apart and rebuild at breakneck speed.
The older brother felt he was about to lose control of his berserk state, and asked the cub in an increasingly gentle tone, "Little one, where is that person you mentioned now?"
No matter where they are, they have ways to make him wish he were dead.
But the cub didn't know either. The cub could only hum, "Anyway, I'll have one in the future. Daddy and brother, don't you have wives?"
Dad and brother: ...
The father was so angry with the baby that he scooped him up, forcibly took him back to the room, pressed him back onto the bed, and told him to shut up and go to sleep.
The baby nestled in his father's arms. No matter how much he moved or called for his father, the father simply held him down with his arm and didn't say a word.
The cub moved close to its father's face, touching his eyelashes and nose, and whispered, "I know Daddy isn't asleep."
Is Dad upset?
"Dad, don't be angry. I love you too. Dad is the person I love the most."
Upon hearing this, Dad silently opened his eyes: "Where's your older brother?"
The little one uses the formula: "She's also the person I love most~"
Dad: "Then, where is that person?"
The little boy smiled and said, "When I grow up, I will love him very, very much too."
Okay, case solved, the cubs all love it.
Everyone is a child's wings.
Dad stared at the fickle little brat for a while, then grinned expressionlessly and took a bite out of the brat's soft cheek.
Even though the father's strength was very light, like being bitten by an ant, the sharpness of the monster's teeth still frightened the cub.
Qianyuan remembered the terrifying memory of her cheeks turning bright red from being sucked so much, and immediately burst into tears: "I want to put Daddy second! Waaaaah, Daddy is my second favorite!"
With that one bite from Dad, he went from first place, which was already popular, to second place. His ranking dropped even faster than the baby's face swelled up.
However, the cub kept crying as if it were truly heartbroken, and it wouldn't stop for quite a while.
Perhaps the cub's body was sensitive and detected some signs.
That's why the child vents his helplessness and fear to the people closest to him.
Finally, after crying for a while, the cub vomited a mouthful of blood.
"System notification: Emotion value collection did not meet expectations, now entering the penalty phase."
The monster truly didn't understand what emotions were, or what the little guy's professed love was, but when he saw the cub covered in blood, he felt his heart clench.
The monster had seen far more gruesome scenes than this, even mountains of corpses and seas of corpses, yet he had never felt fear.
But when the monster saw the cub coughing up blood, it experienced fear for the first time.
He feared the death of his cubs.
At the same time, I would be devastated and wonder how such a small body could vomit so much blood.
After a moment of silence, the cub was once again firmly enveloped in its father's hand, and this time he fed the cub his own blood without giving it a chance to refuse.
But apart from that, he didn't know what else he could do.
In fact, the cub had been in a state of extreme panic ever since it started vomiting blood.
What caused Qianyuan a lifetime of suffering was undoubtedly the disease he feared most: cancer.
From the moment it vomited blood and became completely weak, the cub was plunged into its past nightmare.
Therefore, he did not realize that this punishment was different from the previous ones, and the main system had reduced the pain level of his illness.
Unfortunately, what defeated Chiyuki was not simple pain, but years of torment in her sickbed.
Seeing Qianyuan's appearance, the main system sighed.
In fact, the punishment system is sometimes a double-edged sword. The host will experience the shadows of their past life, and can also use the exposure of their inner vulnerability to gain the target's pity, thereby more easily obtaining emotional value.
That was also his purpose, which is why he implemented the punishment system back then. However, he originally stipulated that the host had to volunteer and that he would compensate the host afterwards. But his subsystem modified it into what it is now.
It is enforced and cannot be refused.
He was still modifying the data when he remembered Qian Yuan's situation and rushed over. Just then, he found Qian Yuan being punished, so he quickly lowered his pain level.
Actually, Qian Yuan's own choice also played a part. He was too soft-hearted. Most people carry out missions with ulterior motives, feigning affection and completely withdrawing once they gain emotional points. Qian Yuan, on the other hand, is the first to sacrifice himself for the goal of saving others time and time again.
A soft-hearted child.
fool.
Perhaps it is because he is too soft that he has been trapped in the evil cage of his past life for so long, unable to escape.
It is because she is so gentle that Chiyuki receives so much love.
The main system remained silent, witnessing for the first time the tears of a dungeon monster.
The father held little Qianyuan in his arms, the once spotless statue now stained with blood, but he didn't care at all. He stood there stunned for a long time, and finally, helplessly touched Qianyuan's cheek, thinking that Qianyuan was angry because of this.
He said, "Baby doesn't have to love Daddy."
"Dad, I love you."
"I love the baby, I love the baby..."
The monster cried out repeatedly, its figure overlapping with the figures of countless parents.
Overlapping together, they uttered the heart-wrenching prayers that had been heard time and again, whether on the white walls of hospitals or on the statues of deities in temples:
"May our baby live a long and healthy life, free from illness and disaster..."
