Aria sighed and gave him a tired smile.“Why are you still awake when the rest are asleep?”“I had work to finish up in the kitchen and some cleaning to do. But I'm done now.”“Why didn't you ask for help? They slept off two hours ago but you're still moving around.”“Oh, An. I'm only doing what I'm supposed to do.” She whispered, smiling tiredly.“I don't like how tired and exhausted you look, it breaks my heart. I have neglected you, and I didn't take proper care of you. Others looked refreshed after taking the fruit, but you still look haggard and weary.”“Oh dear, don't say that. You're so busy and you have lots of worries and burdens to shoulder. It's already bad enough that I can't do anything to help? How can you burden yourself with me?”Anthony's heart ached again and he smiled wryly, rubbing her arm. She placed her head on his shoulders, giving in to the exhaustion in her limbs.He stood up with her in his arms, and carried her to the bed, where he gently laid her down. He r

Mo Lan sighed and looked at her. “Big brother is not outside either. I have looked for him in the gardens and the mountains he chose for cultivation, but he's not there. He’s not with big brother Aryan either. This can only mean they're together in his room. Just allow them, alright? Let's cook breakfast ourselves.” Annabelle scowled at him. “It better not be. If she's in there and left Angel here to cry, I will be very.” “But Angel slept in your room. It's not her fault that Angel cried when she couldn't find her milk.” Mo Lan said again, trying to reason with her. Anthony heard her stalking towards his room and quickly covered their bodies with a blanket. He noticed Aria shaking in fear, making him wonder why. “Don't tell me you're afraid of being seen with me. Aria, you're my lover for crying out loud. You're my woman, my own. Are you afraid of her?” Anthony whispered, wondering what went on behind his back. The door opened at that moment, and he heard Annabelle walk past t

“What's wrong?” Aria asked, noticing the expression on Anthony's face.However, Anthony couldn't hear her above the din of the noise created by the system's sirens.“A village, iris falls has been struck by disaster. After a monster attacked, the village, the victims fell ill and began to die in their numbers. Some got demonized by the monster and began to change into monsters themselves, hurting more people. Others are those affectedly by malnutrition and injuries while escaping. They're currently huddled in various refugee camp, and some die everyday through hunger and starvation, even before the disease destroys them. You have to hurry up and do your best to save them. If you suceed in saving three thousand people and get their worship and adoration, the faith function will be unlocked, and you will have a ‘god attribute' which will elevated you either to the level of demi god threshold, or demi god level. If you manage to save up to ten thousand and get their worship and gratuite,

Sweat dripped down Aria's body as she followed Anthony up the third mountain. Anthony was literally running, making her feel breathless, trying to keep up with him on the treacherous, sloppy path.Anthony looked back at that moment and saw her gasping and wheezing.“What's wrong?”“Oh, it's nothing. I'm just…”Anthony shook his head and sat down on the rocky path, waiting for her to get closer.“You look a mess, are you sure you don't want to stay here while I go up the mountain alone?”“No, thanks.”“Why? I'm the one picking the herbs, and you're exhausted. Just stay here. We're still within the safety of the fortress, so you don't have to worry about wild animals or monstrous beasts.”“No, thank you. What about the one we heard growling some minutes ago? I will continue with you.”“The animals are in the forests, outside the fort. You can hear their sounds, but they can't come in here.” Anthony said, and continued up.Aria quickly followed him, till they got to the top of the mounta

“Is that my uncle?” Angel whispered, looking towards the direction of the sound. However, the sounds stopped coming after a while, making her attention return back to the apple tree. “Little girl, what are you doing here? It's dangerous outside, you should go inside.” The apple said in a sweet feminine voice, patting her hair with a leafy branch. “Aunty, but you are outside. I'm tired of watching cartoons. I have watched all the cartoons shown on the television when we first arrived. Do you want to come watch with me? Sophia the first is really interesting.” Angel asked, looking up at her. “I don't watch cartoons dear. Please, go inside.” “Okay. Can you give me an apple then?” “Why do you want the apple?” “Because it's beautiful; and beautiful fruits are tasty.” “But you already have a beautiful fruit in your hands, go ahead and eat that one.” “I will eat it, but I also want to eat the beautiful apples. An apple a day keeps the doctors away.” Angel whispered with a smile her
