Tenebroum - Chapter 22: Extinguished

Somebody once told a joke.A man ran in place all his life. He worked a job he didn't love for people he couldn't stand. But at the end of the day, the number in his bank account went up.That man got a second chance at life. He woke up in another world, full of adventures and romances and monsters and gods. And floating above his head he saw the number “1”. So what did he say?“Gosh I better make the number go up.”Not today. Not for this old soul. Reborn as a beast of battle meant to live a short life and die screaming, Garek refuses. He puts the madness of skills and levels behind him and sets out to found a little farmstead. He grows crops. Maybe someday he'll get a pig, and have bacon.It's a shame the world won't let him be. It's a shame that the warmongers and level-grinders hate nothing more than a soul at peace.He put down his sword for a plowshare, but when trouble comes calling, he'll pick it up again.

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him. Although he had to face that life-threatening job every day, as long as he had the lovely Leopard Girl cooking delicious food for him daily, and as long as there was meat to eat and cats to stroke, life wasn't too unbearable. Working a bit harder and facing some difficulties on the job weren't really an issue for a man.Moreover, being able to live two lives meant one shouldn't have too high demands, right, Mr. Different-Kind?Having said that, and without waiting for an answer, the young man snapped his fingers, and the white flame on his fingertip lit the tobacco in his other hand, then he flicked it towards the non-human entity on the stake.Welcome to Abield, to witness the last splendor of the steampunk era.And the madness.

The Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom was looking forward to a princess, but he had twenty-eight sons in a row!

The tyrant opened the altar and prayed that as long as he gave birth to a daughter, he promised that he would not commit murder in the future and bring peace to the world! Unexpectedly, God really agreed!

Ten months later, Gu Nuo’er, the only little princess in Daqi, was born with a koi carp.

In the face of being surrounded by treacherous officials, the enemy country is staring at the tiger, and the disadvantaged start of man-made disasters and natural disasters——

The little princess waved her little hand, indicating that the baby is not afraid!

Relying on the luck of the koi carp, help the tyrant father to clean up the court situation, please the queens in the harem, and bring blessings to the people around him.

Gradually, she became everyone’s petite baby.

Tyrant Daddy: “The Dragon Chair is my Nuobao’s shaker, as long as she speaks, the world will give it to her!”

Brothers of the prince: “If you have looks and you have money, I just don’t get married, and I spend my whole life to spoil my sister!”

Ministers and uncles: “Who dares to bully the little princess, don’t blame us for besieging and killing them all!”

When Nuonuo grew up, everyone realized that the boy who grew up with the princess wanted to steal her for a long time——

Ye Siming: “Nuo Nuo, whoever makes you cry, I will make the whole family restless, and whoever hurts you, I will take his life. If you like it, my life is yours too.”
