MTL - Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy in the World of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 664 663. Double Identity, Double Happiness
Chapter 664 663. Double identities, double happiness
"My name is not Artoria, but Aya."
Artoria stared vigilantly at the white-bearded grandfather who suddenly appeared.
She lived with the hunter grandfather since she was a child, and rarely went down the mountain. After her grandfather passed away, she lived alone. Her personality was full of wildness, and she was very wary of strangers.
But the white-bearded old man in front of her somehow made her feel very kind, especially the smell emanating from him was reassuring.
This is also the reason why Artoria is willing to talk to him. If it were someone else, she would have already run away.
"I'm here to take care of you."
Fang Zhou smiled slightly, and looked at Arturia with the eyes of an old father.
Since she was a baby, Fang Zhou has been nourishing her body with true air, providing sufficient nutrition and energy, just like raising a daughter.
Artoria has the keen intuition of a predator, and can feel the kindness and love of Ark.
Her attitude softened a bit, but she still shook her head and said, "I don't need to take care of you."
Fang Zhou was not in a hurry, he just raised his hand, and suddenly a ball of flames appeared from his fingertips.
"Want to learn?"
he asked with a smile.
Artoria's eyes widened in surprise, like a ignorant little beast seeing something it doesn't understand.
"You, why did your hand catch fire?"
"Hey, it's not on fire, it's fun stuff."
Ark uses spells to make magic tricks, and uses water, fire and light to make beautiful light and shadow effects.
When Artoria was still a baby, the old hunter went hunting in the mountains, and Ark sneaked up to her to play like this to make her happy.
Now twelve years old, she is still fascinated by this novel trick.
Fang Zhou continued to ask: "Want to learn? If you want to learn, I can teach you."
Arturia's eyes moved up and down with a ball of fire, and she subconsciously said, "I want to."
After she said it, she quickly covered her mouth with her hands, but it was too late.
Fang Zhou laughed and waved directly, and the two of them flew up the mountain like clouds and fog.
Aya is also watching in the dark. She can show up at will when she can’t remember things when she was a baby, but not now.
If it is seen by the twelve-year-old self and left an impression, then there will be deviations in history.
Fang Zhou didn’t think too much, and excitedly pulled Artoria to start teaching.
If it were someone else, Fang Zhou would definitely not be so warm-hearted, but Arturia is different. This is a wife and a daughter. She has double identities and double happiness, and she feels very nurturing.
Although Artoria is very wary of strangers, she is still just a 12-year-old girl who has never seen the world, and she agreed in a daze after being fooled by Fang Zhou.
Ark has already formulated a full set of teaching courses for her, teaching martial arts and cultivation during the day, and teaching characters and various knowledge at night.
Artoria is very interested in martial arts and cultivation, but not very interested in writing and learning.
But Ark has a lot of ways to make her submit.
Of course, Ark did not neglect Aya, who was hiding in the dark, and would take time to accompany her every once in a while.
The three of them lived on the mountain like a family of three, but the "mother" and "daughter" had never met.
Time flies, and five years are fleeting.
"Merlin! Merlin!"
Accompanied by a cheerful voice, Artoria ran down from the mountain, holding a wild boar bigger than her in both hands.
Compared to five years ago, she has grown from a twelve-year-old girl to a beautiful seventeen-year-old girl.
A three-storey wooden house is built beside a mountain stream, surrounded by flowers, plants and fruit trees.
The door of the house opened, and Ark walked out slowly. Compared with Artoria, Ark has not changed at all in the past five years.
Artoria rushed to the front of the wooden house, threw the wild boar on the open space in front of the house, and said to the ark, "Merlin, let's have grilled pork chops tonight."
At first, she still called Grandpa Ark Merlin, but later she called Merlin directly, without being polite at all.
Fang Zhou didn't mind either, and nodded with a smile, walked to a big rock by the stream and sat down, silently began to practice.
In the past five years, apart from teaching Artoria, Ark himself has not been idle, and has been practicing whenever he finds time.
Now his realm has gone from the Yuanshen Stage of the Soul Realm to the Yinshen Stage, and he is only one step away from the final Yangshen Stage.
Artoria got into the wooden house by herself, took out the dagger and began to slice the wild boar.
As night fell, Fang Zhou accompanied Artoria to eat a meal of grilled wild boar steak, and then ran into the nearby mountain stream to take a bath, completely ignoring the "grandfather" Fang Zhou.
After taking a shower, reviewing her cultural lessons and martial arts, Arturia, who had vented her energy, went into the wooden house, returned to her room, and fell into a deep sleep.
After the little one fell asleep, the big one appeared.
Aya appeared from the night, slowly came to the campfire, and sat beside the ark.
She has lived like this for five years, hiding during the day and only appearing at night.
Fang Zhou looked at Aya's profile and asked, "Is it tomorrow?"
Aya nodded. Historically, tomorrow is the day when Ark drives Artoria down the mountain and lets her choose her own destiny.
Received the answer, Fang Zhou sighed with emotion: "Time flies so fast."
Five years are really fleeting, and Ark has never felt that time flies so fast.
Because raising a daughter is so much fun, watching Arturia grow up day by day, Fang Zhou is full of satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment.
I just didn't expect the day of parting to come so soon.
Fang Zhou felt touched, couldn't help but reached out and pulled Aya into his arms, and stroked her head with one hand: "I raised you, call Dad to listen."
Aya was funny and annoyed, she stretched out her hand and pinched him.
She didn't get up, she continued to lean in Fang Zhou's arms, and suddenly said, "I've been thinking about why you are the savior of this world."
Fang Zhou was slightly taken aback, why did he suddenly bring up this topic?
Since returning to the world of Dark Souls, Aya has never mentioned the fact that Ark is the savior, even he almost ignored it.
He asked: "What's wrong?"
Aya stared at the burning bonfire, and continued: "You will let her go down the mountain tomorrow, and she will make the same choice as me to make history go on the right track, but will it work?"
Aya straightened up suddenly, staring closely at Fang Zhou's eyes: "If the world continues on the right track according to history, the world will eventually be destroyed, so is everything we do meaningful?"
Fang Zhou felt that Aya still had a subtext that she didn’t say. If the world is still going to be destroyed, then wouldn’t she be useless as a savior?
He frowned: "You mean... change history?"
Aya shook her head, with confusion and pain in her eyes: "I don't know, I don't know what to do."
Chapter 3 will be updated if it can be finished before 12:00, and will be saved until tomorrow if it cannot be finished.
