Harry hugged Raina for a while and asked suddenly, a bit curious, "You didn't like to be in your adult body, right? What happened, all the times I snooped around you in the sky, you were in this form. Never again in the child form."

She looked up at him with blinking blue eyes. "Wow, so you were looking after me from hiding?"

Harry blinked. "No? I was just passing by and felt someone I knew was nearby. Not at all looking after you as far as I am concerned."

She chuckled and Harry chuckled in return. "You are such a bad guy. Having made me so sad that day! You now started believing I am not an illusion? What happened and what is this place?"

Harry looked around. "This place is something even I am yet to clearly understand, your Big Sis Evis is looking around. Let's ask her when she returns."

She nodded and looked at him hopefully. "So, the illusion?"

Harry looked at her weirdly. "What Illusion? That was just a bunch of stupid lies to make you want to train harder. Look at you now, you were so whiny about the Learning path and now you are this close to Rank 1." 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

"Tha...That was an act?!" She looked at him with a dumbstruck face.

He smiled and said, "Of course that was an act, what kind of a nutjob believes all things are an illusion?"

"I...I.." she looked at him with crying eyes.

Harry chuckled and ruffled her hair. "It's for your own betterment milady."

"Wait!" she suddenly held his clothes tight. "So, does that mean you now accept me as your wife? Your woman?"

Before the 10 months, she had only noticed Harry as a person. But in those days, she had seen how majestic he looked, how gently he taught her. How comfortable she felt when he was around.

How happy her mother was after every time Harry visited her at night.

How her brother had become a loyal knight of Harry and was in training. She had at first felt slightly hateful of him – even somewhat disgusted.

But as he and she started to interact more and she became a cultivator, she also started to feel affection for him. It was a small affection at first.

The same familial non romantic kind that she had with her own brother. But that soon changed, she started feeling more interested in him.

In a more than familial way. It was not at all the kind she felt towards anyone else.

There was no man in the world as good as Harry. He was the best at almost everything.

Nobody was worthy in comparison. Whoever she saw, she compared them with him. She always gagged at the difference.

The thought of other men touching her felt like eating dunk or vomit to her after Harry became a part of her life. But the more she came to know him, the more she wanted to be more to him.

She even envied her own mother. She wanted Harry to hug her, kiss her, and do a lot more but he never did.

Even when she was in her grown-up appearance. "So, tell me, will I be?"

Harry glared at her with obvious misgivings.

"Why are you looking at me like a product you want to buy or not?" she growled in irritation and tried to move away from him with a push. But Harry's hold over her waist was too strong.

He smiled and kissed her on the lips. Her breath hitched and she kissed back fiercely. Harry smiled and with a bit of effort, overwhelmed her tongue and completely took hold of her.

With a deep breath, she moved her face back. Looking at him with a surprised gaze.

"What, you didn't like it?" he asked.

"..." her ears blushed and her face blushed all around. She turned silent.

"You were always in your grown-up form because I like it more, right?"

"..." she hid her face on his chest.

Harry kissed her on the head and said with a chuckle. "You are one of the fiercest women ever to have fallen in love with me. At least in making me your lover no matter what. I think you would've beaten me up if you were stronger than me right?"

She was blushing too hard to speak.

"All talk and no action..." Harry said as he patted her buttocks. She blushed even more and clung to him much harder.

"Hey... Da. Ddy." called a not so happy voice from the side and Harry looked at Evis who was glaring at his hands.

He smiled wistfully. "What, milady Evis?"

"Nothing," She said, her voice filled with disdain.

"What?" Harry's eyes twitched.

"You have a whole new world to explore and you are once again playing with another daughter? Uh, no, a wife now? Concubine? Well, whatever."

"Why are you so pissed?" Harry smirked. Raina's heart finally calmed down and she stood at his side. Glaring at her big sister with a bombastic side-eye.

"I am not pissed?" Evis grunted. She was the only daughter interested in him for so long and now she had this bloody competition on that side too.

I can't be his only wife! I can't be his only daughter. And now I can't even be the only daughter to have fallen in love with him.

"She is just adopted in the end," she said smugly out of nowhere and then immediately turned silent.

Of shit!

Harry smiled. "So you were mad at her for stealing your daughter position. No wonder, no wonder."

Evis' eyes darkened and shadows devoured her. "Fuck you, Dad. And don't come later asking for the discoveries I had."

Harry looked at her dumbfoundedly. And immediately called out in irritation, "Evis! Come here! You can use your powers above the temple complex?!"

"Heh, I wonder if I can." came a snarky chuckle.

"Come now and It's my first order for you in today's Yes Day. If you don't come, there is no more 'Yes Days' in between us."

Evis came out with a frown as the shadows reappeared. Harry smiled and smacked her butt.

"Tell me what you learned," he said with intrigue. He really wanted to know what this world is.

Evis frowned but he pinched her butt. "Okay... But if I don't get a 'Yes Day' after this. I'll force you to do what I want for a full day. Non-stop."

Harry's hand froze. "That's not something my Evis would do... Right?"

"That was in the old world. This place is different, I can act differently."

What kind of logic is that?

"Tell me what is up with this world..." he sighed, defeated. "And no more feet this time, even I don't have a feet fetish. That's disgusting."

"Even if it was angelic legs of mine which had been cleaned to achieve a purity like none else? They are so clean, you know? I never let my legs touch the ground either. It always stays an inch away."

"Even so. No feet."

"...Okay, I guess," she said with a disappointed face.

"Anyway, this world is much smaller than the continent. You can go 100 kilometers west, east, south, or north and the world will end there. This is the center of the world."

"So it is a 100-kilometer in diameter, this world," Harry nodded.

"And the world has seven of these temple complexes scattered across the area. Each of them makes Gift stop working above them. Born Dragon Gifts should be the same too. But the Magic Powers that I learned on my own are not like that, I can still use it easily."

Harry nodded.

"But there is also an area which I hadn't checked yet, it's a pond. That place feels dangerous even for me, 90 kilometers west. So don't go there," Evis warned seriously.

Harry nodded.

"Okay, I will do a final checking around everywhere and come back for my Yes Day. Finally." She chuckled as shadows devoured her.

Harry sighed and looked at Raina beside him. "What are you so dazed about?"

Her eyes were so starry, mesmerized even.

"I was wondering Dad..." She looked at him with a flushed face. "You can't do anything against Big Sister Evis and only let her have fun with you. I also want to be as strong as her."

Harry swallowed and looked at her nervously. "For what? To order me around? Even Evis can't do that if I don't allow it."

Raina smiled graciously. "I can just grow strong enough and do what I want with you. Evis just respects you too much!"

"You don't respect me?" Harry asked with a frowning gaze.

"Not after you literally deceived me." she snorted. "I don't respect you now. I only want you for your handsome body."

"Are you sure about that?"

"I am, of course."

Harry kissed her. She reddened all over in the face and hid her head on his chest.

"I don't think a person looking for my body would blush like that."

"Well I do!" she mumbled in frustration.
