Chapter 7: Sending You Two to Heaven (2) (Bonus Update)
==============================
Ever since the Great King’s bedroom has been under the exclusive protection of the Stone Guardian, the maidservants shifted their main duties to cleaning and maintaining areas like the dining room, bathroom, little garden, and restroom.
Before the sun had even risen, the maidservants had already developed a habit of waking up early.
They needed to help out in the kitchen, preparing enough food to fill the Stone Guardian’s belly.
They had just rubbed their sleepy eyes when a piercing scream shattered the early morning tranquility from the direction of the Great King’s bedroom.
This time, they had all learned their lesson.
Just do their jobs—nobody dared to check what was going on.
The last incident was still fresh in their minds; clearly, the Great King just wanted to play some playful games with those charming young boys.
If they were to interrupt blindly, it would ruin the Great King’s entire setup—and that was a fate worse than d*ath!
Sure enough, not long after, sounds of “thud, thud, thud” and “smack, smack, smack” came from the bedroom.
Red-faced, the Butterfly Demons exchanged glances.
The Great King sure had a strong spirit—early in the morning, he was getting in some good exercise.
No wonder the Stone Guardian showed up shortly after, bringing his twin brother. It seemed like only the two of them taking turns could satisfy the Great King’s needs.
Rumor had it that women who liked wearing black had a bit of a thirst in that department.
“Hehehe…”
The maidservants, all aglow, began preparing breakfast for the day.
Since they had done some exercising, they definitely needed to replenish their energy—better to prepare some beef, lamb, and eggs just in case.
Meanwhile, in Lin Nan’s bedroom.
With the White Shadow Sword in hand, even barefoot, Lin Nan’s attack power was set to MAX.
Two shirtless young boys woke up with dazed expressions when Lin Nan kicked one of them in the head.
Of course, Stone Yuan remembered the promise he made to Lin Nan. As soon as he saw her blushing and grinning with fury, his heart sank.
“Big Sis, it’s really not me! I wasn’t on duty last night! I was clearly lying in my own bed when I fell asleep, and then when I opened my eyes, I was here! It’s not my fault!”
“Heh, smooth talker. Just stand over there for now.”
Lin Nan kicked the sincere-looking Stone Yuan away, his head smacking against the wall with a “thud.”
Then, she turned her gaze to the other young boy.
Evil Shiyuan sat cross-legged on the bed, looking completely unfazed, “Big Sis, I honestly don’t know how I ended up in your bed!”
“Hah! Is that so?” Lin Nan gave a cold smile, launching a kick that sent Evil Shiyuan’s head “thud” against the wall as well.
Ever since she found out he was the Evil Incarnation of the Monster King, she had been extra cautious.
This guy looked just like Stone Yuan, but the wickedness in his eyes was hard to shake off.
She could trust him about as far as she could throw him.
She was determined to find out who the mastermind behind this morning’s caper was—she wouldn’t let this slide without answers.
If she let these two hooligans run rampant, who knew how outrageous things would get!
“Speak up! Who’s the ringleader?”
Lin Nan said icily.
The duo of Stone Yuan exchanged glances, and suddenly both raised their fingers to point at each other, shouting in unison, “It’s him!”
Lin Nan stepped forward and slapped each of them.
“Smack… smack…”
The two immediately fell silent.
“One by one! You first, and if you don’t tell the truth, you can forget about breakfast.”
Lin Nan pointed at Stone Yuan.
This little rascal could take a beating, but he absolutely couldn’t miss a meal.
Sure enough, as soon as Stone Yuan heard, he panicked.
“Big Sis, I swear, last night I was in and out of sleep, and it felt like I was dreaming. I was being led by someone’s hand, wandering around, and I have no idea where I ended up.
Then I woke up and bam! It’s you!”
Seeing Stone Yuan’s pitiful expression, she was starting to think he might actually be telling the truth.
Lin Nan’s gaze shifted to Evil Shiyuan.
The boy scratched his head, glancing around nervously as if he didn’t want to make eye contact with Lin Nan.
Looks like he was the real culprit.
This guy was definitely up to no good. Not only was he planning something sinister, but he also dragged Stone Yuan down with him to share the blame.
Heh, let’s see how I deal with you in a bit.
“Spill it already! Why are you quiet now? What exactly happened?”
After a long silence, just as Lin Nan was about to make a move, Evil Shiyuan suddenly looked up at her with his shining, narrow eyes.
“Big Sis, I like you.”
The entire world froze at that moment.
Lin Nan’s raised right hand immediately stiffened.
For some reason, upon hearing those words, her heart started pounding like crazy, and her cheeks turned hot. At that instant, it was as if something had strummed a chord in her heart, sending ripples that faded away just as quickly.
Frost North Snow…
Those three words suddenly popped into her mind.
In Thousand Bird City, when Niu Gan Dang knelt and addressed her as Queen Mother, she realized that she—the Cold Moon Witch—had not just appeared out of thin air but had existed in this world before.
She had wanted to use “Inquire about the Past Five Thousand Years” to uncover the truth about Frost North Snow, but to her surprise, this greedy item had flat-out refused her.
The item explained that if its owner had to rely on it to recall their own past, it was high time to bury them six feet under.
Although the attempt to use the item had failed, one thing was certain: the body she currently inhabited belonged to Frost North Snow—Queen of the Monster King.
This also explained why the White Shadow Sword had an unusual effect on the Monster King while in her hands.
At first, Lin Nan had resisted accepting this identity.
After all, she had come from the real world into this game, hoping to play according to her own wishes, but the System wouldn’t let her. It had forcibly placed her soul into Frost North Snow’s body, causing her to live on in this world.
The once-a-month unpleasantness, becoming increasingly conscious of her skin care, and being mindful of manners in different settings—all of these had subtly transformed her into a true woman.
Months of adjustment had finally made her accustomed to being the Cold Moon Witch and to everything that came with being a woman, which was so different from her former identity in reality.
And now, out of the blue, the fact that she once had a husband came crashing back.
Just the thought of having shared a bed with a man made it hard for her to swallow.
Now, it was even more amusing that the Monster King’s two incarnations had followed her back to Cold Wind City, looking as if they couldn’t possibly leave her side, causing a headache for Lin Nan.
She feared they might entertain thoughts of rekindling old flames.
The only comfort was that they seemed not to inherit the Monster King’s full memories, their thoughts toward her only being vague notions of familiarity.
As long as she kept them at a safe distance and didn’t let them push their luck, maybe in time she could find them a few wives, and everything would smooth over.
But who would’ve thought these two would end up in her bed at the same time!
Heh, if I don’t show them who’s boss today, I’ll change my surname from Lin!
…
Little Theater:
In the dark of night, in a warm bed.
Stone Yuan: If you dare touch Big Sis, I’ll scream!
Evil Shiyuan: It’s alright, let’s just touch together. Isn’t that fair?
Stone Yuan: But the System says we need a ticket to touch her…
Evil Shiyuan: Hahaha, one ticket for a quick poke, and I can rub her bald!
