Knock, knock, knock…
“Lord Furina, it is time to get up.
I have prepared breakfast for you here.” Judging by the voice, it should be Clorinde.
Elysia stepped forward and opened the door to find Clorinde holding a breakfast tray with both hands.
Judging by the portion, it was meant for two people, so it seemed a portion had been prepared for Elysia as well.
“Hi!
Good morning ♪ Beautiful Damselette, have you missed me?
Let a new day begin with our wonderful encounter ♪” Elysia stepped forward, took the tray with one hand, and pulled Clorinde into the room with the other.
“Fufu, come over and have breakfast.
Clorinde brought this over personally, you know ♪” Clorinde looked at Elysia’s hand, contemplating whether to shake him off, but felt that would be a bit too much.
After thinking about it, since they were all girls anyway, he let Elysia pull him along.
However, Clorinde was surprised by what Elysia called Furina.
‘Last night he was still calling him Lord Furina, and this morning they are already this close?’ However, looking at Elysia, who seemed to possess astonishing charm by his side, Clorinde suddenly felt it was quite normal.
After all, Elysia and Furina had known each other 500 years ago.
After 500 years of separation, it was normal to feel a bit estranged when suddenly meeting again.
Elysia let go of Clorinde’s hand, took Furina’s hand instead, and led him to the dining table.
After the two sat down, Elysia placed the tray on the table and opened the lid.
The contents inside were very simple: two soft breads sliced into even thicknesses, a bottle of jam, two small cakes, and two cups of Milk.
After Elysia and Furina divided the food, the two began to enjoy the simple breakfast.
Furina snatched his small cake into his hands and began to taste it with a spoon with an expression of enjoyment.
Elysia watched Furina’s cute expression while eating bread dipped in jam.
As for that small cake, Elysia did not plan to enjoy it herself; this was the Bait for fishing later.
After a short while, Furina finished his small cake, lost interest in the remaining bread, and found it tasteless in his mouth.
Instead, his gaze turned to Elysia’s small cake.
“Elysia, it looks like you do not really like eating cake.
How about I eat it for you!” With that, he extended his devilish claws toward the small cake.
Just as he was about to grab it and the smile on Furina’s face was about to overflow, a fair little hand snatched the small cake away first, causing the smile on Furina’s face to instantly freeze.
“No need to trouble Fufu.
Actually, Elysia still likes eating it very much, but she is just used to saving her favorite for last ♪” Hearing Elysia’s words, Furina felt a bit depressed and sullenly chewed on the dry bread.
“However, if Fufu likes it, Elysia can give it to you ♪” Elysia extended the small cake in her hand toward Furina.
Hearing this, Furina was quite moved, and his previous negative emotions were swept away.
“As expected of the most devout subject of Lord Furina, I accept your feelings for your deity!” With that, Furina prepared to take it.
Just as he was about to touch it, Elysia withdrew her extended hand.
Amidst Furina’s puzzled gaze, Elysia calmly scooped a spoonful of the small cake and brought it to Furina’s lips.
“Ah~” Furina instantly understood Elysia’s meaning and shouted angrily, “Elysia!!!” Furina realized that he was still too naive.
He should not have thought Elysia had such a good heart; she was simply a bad woman through and through!
“Fufu, keep it down.
I understand your love for Elysia, but shouting so loudly will disturb the neighbors ♪” Furina very much wanted to turn around and leave immediately, but looking at the small cake by his lips and smelling the sweet aroma emanating from it, he could not bear to let go.
‘Damn it, I want to eat it so bad, I simply cannot refuse…’ At this moment, Furina had no choice but to cast an angry gaze at Clorinde, who had been observing the development of the situation from the side.
Seeing his own deity casting a gaze at him, the corners of Clorinde’s mouth lifted slightly, but in a split second, he returned to his former iceberg-beauty image.
Clorinde remained silent, tactfully and silently turning to face away from Furina and Elysia.
Seeing that Clorinde could no longer see this side, Furina turned his head back, continuing to glare angrily at Elysia while eating the small cake she fed him.
Elysia didn’t mind Furina’s gaze; at this moment, Elysia felt her heart melting.
Fufu like this was simply too cute, and the joy and satisfaction on Elysia’s face were almost overflowing.
However, even though Elysia intentionally slowed down the feeding speed, after all, the cake was too small and was finished by Furina in no time.
Elysia had no choice but to withdraw her hand, wearing an expression of regret.
Having finished the small cake, Furina also leaned back contentedly against the chair back.
You must know that due to dietary management in the past, he could only eat one each time.
Although he was teased by Elysia today, he got to eat it after all, and no one else saw it.
Hearing that the movement behind him had stopped, Clorinde knew that the two had finished their meal, so he turned around to clean up the leftovers on the table and said to the two: “Lord Furina, Ms.
Elysia, Lord Neuvillette asked me to inform the two of you to go see him after finishing your meal.
Lord Neuvillette said he has something to ask you both.” Last night, after leaving, Clorinde immediately went to find Neuvillette, who was handling some business outside late at night, and informed him of the news that Furina had brought back a dependent.
Upon learning this, Neuvillette’s first reaction was: “Where did that fellow Focalors trick another tool from?” Remembering how young he was back then, unaware of the sinister nature of people, he rushed all the way from Inazuma to Fontaine after receiving Furina’s letter.
As soon as he arrived, he was assigned the position of Chief Justice, followed by working like a horse and an ox for 500 years.
She herself became a hands-off boss and went off to be a spectator/troublemaker.
However, upon subsequently learning that Elysia had been the Hydro Archon’s dependent 500 years ago, Neuvillette frowned.
It wasn’t that he doubted Elysia’s identity, since it was confirmed with Furina’s personal nod.
He was merely puzzled as to why Furina had never told him about this over the past 500 years, and he had never heard any news about Elysia either.
It was as if this person had appeared out of thin air.
‘Could it be that she went to investigate that prophecy?’ When Neuvillette first learned about the prophecy, he went to ask Furina about it, but every time, Furina was vague and brushed him off.
After this happened a few times, Neuvillette stopped looking for Furina.
After all, as the Hydro Archon, Furina should know some things; he just did not know why she kept it from him all along.
‘Now that the dependent named Elysia has come back, has she obtained a solution to the prophecy?’ Neuvillette very much wanted to go ask right now, but seeing that it was already very late, he felt embarrassed to disturb them and could only entrust Clorinde to notify Furina and Elysia the next morning.
