Chapter 398 – Cathulhu Has a Bro!
Yuan Hua peeked around the corner, gazing at Xiaomao's group. She hesitated if she should call for him. Meanwhile, on her shoulder, Magdalene was in her fairy form, conserving her energy.
"I-I don't think this is a good idea, Maggy. I and Xiaomao were enemies. I don't think he will welcome me…"
Magdalene encouraged Yuan Hua, "It doesn't hurt to try. If we miss this opportunity, we will be stranded and isolated. If we can join his dantian universe, we can survive this ordeal. Maybe, we can find senior Emerald Hopea and ask her to resurrect Shepherd. Xiaomao is the only hope!"
"W-What if he might ask for our bodies as compensation? Haven't you heard that he ravished Alice, Undine, and Nymph before?"
Magdalene flinched. She sweated profusely as she also believed that Xiaomao was a pervert. She began to stutter, "M-M-Maybe we can exchange something else for his protection. R-Right? W-We know a compound element formula that we got from Shepherd. I-If we trade that, he might…"
"…"
Both girls sulked. They lost their courage to talk to Xiaomao.
While the two girls idled in front of his house, Jungwoo, Mao Xueyan, and Mao Dandan came to see Xiaomao as well. When they saw the two girls, they called their names.
"Junior, what are you doing here? I thought you two already teleported to the new worlds." Xueyan was puzzled.
Yuan Hua became stiff. She bowed 90 degrees toward the two wives of Mao Miaomiao, "G-Greetings, Senior Mao! W-We're just discussing the dantian universe."
Mao Xueyan grinned, "You must have seen the game messages, right? Are you here to join Xiaomao's dantian universe?"
Magdalene and Yuan Hua couldn't utter a word. They lowered their heads in embarrassment.
The tiger woman patted Yuan Hua. She didn't care if Yuan Hua was once her enemy in their previous life. She encouraged her, "You know, my husband has assigned me a task. He asks me to accompany Xiaomao to the new game world. I, Dandan, and Jungwoo are in the W-28's group, and Xiaomao will be sent there as well."
Yuan Hua suddenly had an idea. She asked Mao Xueyan, "C-Can I join your dantian universe and go there along with you? W-We would like to find a way to resurrect Shepherd."
Mao Xueyan giggled, "You're asking the wrong person. You're supposed to ask Xiaomao, not me."
"Eh?" Yuan Hua was confused, "Why him?"
"Mao Miaomiao has the soul of Shepherd. I think he has already passed the soul to Lilith, and she might have already entered Xiaomao's dantian universe. If you want to resurrect Shepherd or see him again, you need to ask Xiaomao."
"!!!"
Hearing that Shepherd's soul was with Xiaomao, Yuan Hua was delighted. She bowed several times, thanking her.
"Thank you for enlightening me, senior! I know what to do now!"
"Good. Now, call for him."
"Okay!"
Yuan Hua mustered the courage and approached the group.
.
Two mermaids in human form sat and hugged their knees, sulking. They regretted asking Xiaomao to name them.
Lilith held back her laughter and teased them.
"Don't be sad. Your names are perfectly fine."
Xiaomao nodded, "Yes, munya. Every name has a good meaning behind it!"
Undine had the urge to beat Xiaomao to a pulp. She felt like her new name was an insult. Nymph was also the same as she sensed something terribly wrong with the name.
Nymph complained, "Who do I feel useless whenever I hear my name, Aqua?"
Undine's face was dark, "Don't ask, Sakura. I want to cry, too."
Xiaomao scratched his head. He had no idea why they were sulking. Since he couldn't read their mind, he touched their karma strings and moved them to his dantian universe along with Lucky and others.
After everybody entered his dantian, Xiaomao turned around and prepared to enter his house.
Suddenly, Yuan Hua and Magdalene called for him, "WAIT! PLEASE!"
Xiaomao stopped his feet. Seeing the two girls, he slapped the back of his neck as he forgot about them, "Yes? What's wrong?"
Yuan Hua said first, "Please take us along to your dantian! We promise to be useful to you! W-We can do chores! We can dance! W-W-W-We can warm the bed!"
"…"
Something felt wrong. Xiaomao stared at Yuan Hua's redden face and the smoke that came out of her ears. He looked behind her and found Jungwoo and the two stepmothers.
Lilith gazed at Yuan Hua and smirked. She teased her by talking to Xiaomao out loud, "Xiaomao, your dantian universe needs maids. We can take them in."
"Maids, munya?" Xiaomao raised his eyebrows, not understanding Lilith's intention.
"Maids are houseservants. They can cook. They can clean houses. At night time, they can serve you."
Yuan Hua was on the verge of crying while Magdalene was flustered. Their eyes spun as if they were hypnotized.
Yuan Hua screamed, "I-I-I will do my best! I-I have some experience!"
"…"
Xiaomao facepalmed and shook his head. He grew numb to the temptation, "I don't need night service, munya. Also, I know why you're here. You're here because of Shepherd, right, munya?"
"Y-Yes."
"Okay. I'll resurrect him for sure. But for now, he's in his soul form, and he needs some time to recuperate. I can bring you to his side. Is that okay with you?"
"YES! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!"
Magdalene and Yuan Hua deeply bowed. They agreed to join his universe.
Xiaomao looked at Lilith, "Can you help them with the oath thingy? I need to hurry and finish our lecture. We have a lot to work on in my dantian universe."
Lilith giggled, "Sometimes, I wish Mao Miaomiao was as half as hardworking as you. If it were him, he would have accepted them and ravished them until they break."
"Tell him to screw himself, munya."
"He technically did. He was actually a clone, but he mated with his original body."
"…"
Xiaomao facepalmed again. He cursed his father for being an absolute degenerate.
Lilith read Xiaomao's expression and laughed, "Oh, he always called himself a CULTURED MAN."
"If enjoying selfcest is considered being cultural, then I'm a saint, munya! I jacked off three times a day, so I practically fucked my hands, aka myself!"
"…"
This time, Xiaomao blurt out something stupid. Lilith, Yuan Hua, Magdalene, Mao Xueyan, Mao Dandan, and Jungwoo blankly stared at him. Their expression turned into a pokerface meme.
Once one fucked up, one couldn't be unfucked. Realizing what he just said, Xiaomao double-facepalmed. He smacked his head to a wall nearby because of the embarrassment, "WTF, BRAIN?!"
Mao Xueyan, Mao Dandan, and Lilith couldn't suppress themselves. They covered their mouths and burst into laughter.
"AHAHAHAHA!! THAT'S HIS SON, ALRIGHT!"
"HE'S THE SAME AS MIAOMIAO! DAHAHAHA!!"
"IT'S IN THE GENES, HAHAHAHAHA!!"
.
After a minute of hysterical laughter, the moms regained their composure while Xiaomao's face was as red as tomatoes.
Lilith taught Yuan Hua and Magdalene about the oath and the severity of the connection. When the duo realized that their lives would be bound to Xiaomao's, they hesitated for a moment.
Magdalene showed her resolves first. She made an oath, and her karma string turned to gold. Noticing that her sister made a vow, Yuan Hua followed suit. Then, both women entered Xiaomao's dantian.
After everybody was gone, Xiaomao, Jungwoo, Lilith, Mao Xueyan, and Mao Dandan got to have thier private conversation.
Xiaomao faced his two tiger mothers, "So, how many wives does my father have exactly… mom?"
The stepmoms spoke in unison, "Countless."
"And is he still collecting more wives, munya?"
They shrugged in unison, "Obviously."
"And you all are fine with that, munya?"
They shrugged again, "We don't care."
"And why are you still loyal to him? If I were one of his wives, I would have dumped him on the spot!"
The moms looked at each other and snickered. Mao Xueyan bragged, "He's good on bed. He's good at dual cultivation. He's connected to Mu-Nyang, so he's rich in cultivation resources. He can make good pills. He's stupid and funny. He can use clone-jutsu to gangbang us, and he always completes his homework even when we didn't ask for it."
"In short, he's a sex fiend, munya?"
"Precisely!"
"…"
Xiaomao facepalmed once more. He gave up on investigating his father's background as he was afraid of finding out about his sickest perverted stories.
"Anyway," Xiaomao changed his subject and gazed at Jungwoo. "I guess you also have a protagonist class, right?"
Floating over Jungwoo's head was his name, primary title, and level. His level was still 2,000, but his title was the Hero of the Beast Forest, which explained many things.
Jungwoo didn't hide anything, "Yes. I have the protagonist class. So, Xiaomao, can you see the protagonist list, too?"
"Yeah, there are 10 protags remaining, including us, munya. By the way, do you know anything about this feature or purpose?"
Lilith inserted herself into the conversation, "The protagonist list shows the detail of your rivals. The ultimate purpose of a protagonist is to dominate the universe and become the final victor in the current generation's crisis, which is the current Solomon-Miaomiao War."
Mao Xueyan nodded and explained, "You two will become the pivot of this war. The ultimate antagonist is Solomon, who you two need to defeat in the future. Until then, we will protect you from harm's way and make sure that you grow up properly as protagonists."
Xiaomao raised his hand, "Wait, munya. You said something about the final victor. Do I have to fight Jungwoo eventually, munya?"
The women looked at each other. They shrugged in unison again.
"Eventually, yes."
"But why?!" This time, Xiaomao and Jungwoo said at the same time.
"Don't overthink about it. The roles might restrict us and force us to do certain tasks. But ultimately, we are the master of our free will. We make the decision if we wish to continue our path or abandon our fate. Think of the protagonist list as candidates for a true protagonist in this universe's story."
"…"
Jungwoo and Xiaomao looked at each other. They wryly smiled.
"You won't backstab me, right, munya?"
"We are BFFs, right?"
"…"
They awkwardly looked into each other's eyes for a minute. But suddenly, Jungwoo uttered.
"Boobs or butt."
Xiaomao's eyes glinted, "Boobs! A or E cup?"
Jungwoo's eyes gleamed, "Melons only!!"
"Brother!"
"BROTHER!"
They suddenly shook hands.
The women blankly stared at them. They looked at each other and pointed at the simpleton duos.
Their worries were pointless as Jungwoo and Xiaomao were simple creatures. They hugged each other's shoulders and laughed, throwing away the concerns about protagonists and the potential rivalry between them.
