As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 251
Advertisement
Andrea was not as generous as Vivian, her mother.
She knew that Aude was out there, not only with another woman, but also with a child.
Now, he went out every day just to look after the child.
Andrea's dissatisfaction with her father was at its peak.
Although she was only three months old, her inheritance was gradually unlocking.
By taking away her father's attention, the child was an enemy.
The dragon race would never give in to an enemy.
They would never be merciful.
Eliminating the enemy was the only option.
Therefore, Andrea followed her father to the basilisk race's home. She transformed into that little basilisk.
Then, while her father Aude was talking to that basilisk woman,
She ate that little basilisk who dared to snatch her father away from her.
Fortunately, although Aude went to the basilisk tribe, he also spent the night at that basilisk woman's house.
He didn't pay too much attention to the little basilisk.
Otherwise, Andrea might have exploded and eaten that basilisk woman.
Even so, Andrea wasn't in a good mood.
Especially when she saw her father Aude in the morning telling that basilisk woman that he would come at night,
Andrea's mood completely dropped to the freezing point.
Because of this, she didn't go home at all.
Instead, she waited for her father at a place that was still some distance away from home.
She believed that her father would definitely stop here when he passed by and saw a small basilisk here.
As expected, a daughter knows her father.
When Aude passed by, he saw Andrea dangling from a tree, so he stopped and came over.
"Oh, I won't do it again."
Andrea answered seriously.
Indeed, I won't, as long as you don't stay away from home for the sake of other cubs.
Otherwise, next time, I'll eat the baby and its mother together.
But perhaps it was just an illusion, but after eating the little basilisk, she was not hungry today, as if she was still a little full.

It was as if some power was awakening in her body.
"Who told you to become like this? You're a dragon!"
Aude had doubts in his heart.
He wanted to go back to the basilisk race to see his child,
But Aude knew that this daughter of his was different from his other children.
The power inherited by the other children was basically just combat,
But this child had the inheritance of a wise man.
He might not even be as smart as this child.
It was better for him not to give himself away in front of this child,
In case this child did something irreversible.
"Father, aren't you going to ask me?"
Aude wanted to gently put the matter behind him.
Aude regarded his daughter very highly, so he was naturally very strict.
Now that he heard his daughter say this, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"What do you want me ask?"
Aude felt guilty.
"Ask me why I knew you would pass by here."
"And why I can turn into something I've never seen before."
"More importantly, why there is a smell on me that you are familiar with."
"And where did I sleep last night?"
"And where did I come back from this morning?"
Every time Andrea asked a question, Aude felt more uneasy.
"Weren't you at home?"
Aude tried his best to remain as calm as usual.
"Yes, I was at home, but whose home is it?"
Andrea decided not to maintain the appearance of a small snake.
Instead, she transformed into her original dragon form.
She stretched her body majestically.
Pale golden antlers, pale green scales that were almost white, and four dragon legs that looked short but were exceptionally powerful. The originally cute and fleshy claws had now grown into sharp claws.
"You didn't have any claws yesterday. How did you grow so fast? Are you feeling unwell?"

Aude saw that his daughter's body had undergone such a change, and he was a little worried about her body.
"What did you eat?"
Aude's gaze fell on Andrea's stretching body, and a metallic claw that popped out from her claws.
"I ate a living thing yesterday."
Andrea's voice was lazy, showing that she did not care.
However, Aude could vaguely feel a faint murderous aura that was dissipating from his daughter's abnormal behavior.
What was going on?
His daughter was only three months old. He was usually very strict with her, and he had never let her participate in the killing.
"What's going on?"
One had to know that the growth cycle dragons was very long.
Dragons would only be considered mature when they were 300 years old.
His daughter was only three months old,
And she was still in the infant stage.
Yet she was so big already.
Could it be that something had happened at home after he left yesterday?
"I couldn't help it and ate a small basilisk."
Andrea's voice was filled with a vile show-off and warning.
At the same time, the killing intent on her body was faintly discernible.
Having said that, how could Aude not understand why Andrea was so abnormal?
It was 80% likely that this child had followed him to the basilisk tribe yesterday.
When he saw the mother and daughter of the basilisk tribe,
"You ate your sister?"
Aude looked at his daughter expressionlessly.
He really wasn't that angry.
In the world where the strong ruled,
There was a saying in the dragon clan, which meant that only one strongest person was left in a generation. The remaining brothers and sisters would all be eaten by that strongest person.
His daughter had only done what had happened in their clan a long time ago yesterday.
The little basilisk was eaten because it wasn't as strong as Andrea.
No one else could be blamed.
But what really surprised Aude was that this child had followed him secretly.
To the basilisk tribe.
And no one in the entire basilisk tribe had noticed.
This child had eaten the baby basilisk right under his nose.
Why was Aude so sure that Andrea had eaten the baby basilisk right in front of him?
That was because he knew his daughter too well.
Since his daughter had followed him to the basilisk's home,
She must have known that he had another daughter.
And this child thought that someone had taken away her father.
As a warning of revenge, she must have eaten the baby basilisk right in front of him.
That was also why when he had just returned,
It was easy to explain why he had seen Andrea turn into a baby basilisk.
This child must have also turned into a particularly vile appearance like the small basilisk that had been eaten.
She was in the same room as him.
"Is there anything wrong with your body right now?"
Aude was indeed angry.
However, what he was angry about was that Andrea's body might've changed.
Siblings who had eaten the from the same bloodline might very likely undergo a mutation.
Moreover, Andrea ate a younger sister who hadn't awakened her dragon bloodline.
"Your claws seem to be sharper than those of the dragon race."
Andrea narrowed her metal-like vertical pupils and stared at her father.
She wanted to see what her father was thinking at this moment.
Seeing that her father wasn't sad about her eating that little basilisk...

What Was Lost Outside Time
What happens to a mind, subjected to an infinite span of time? What remains, when it is taken out again? This is the story of an individual reborn after such time has passed that nothing remains of what it was; an individual who must learn once again what it is to be, beginning with awareness of the idea of awareness, and growing from there; from awareness of self, to awareness of others, to awareness of society, and on. This is the story of a mind; growing, learning, adapting, and becoming more. -- Currently the first three chapters are - well, kind of experimental. I both like and hate these; they were a pain to write, and I'm told by at least one person that they're painful to get through, but I think something like them is necessary to set one of the basic ideas about the way the story is written. It gets slightly more normal after that, the first arc of the story is rather "battle school", and I think I may need to go back and edit it - the characterization didn't end up working out as well as I had originally hoped, unfortunately, and ended up rather weak to my eye. I may go back and add a sub-plot or two, depending on how well I can handle the intended perspective shift of the second arc. -- Currently on hiatus, in case that wasn't obvious. I'm debating between rewriting large portions of what I've already written, and just finishing out the story, but either way, I don't actually have a clear idea of what I want to do right now. If I'm still feeling the same way in a few months I'll put a chapter up explaining where the story was going, maybe, so the people who have enjoyed it can know where the story was intended to go, and close this out.
