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...

Again from Scratch Saga: Izmittor Unchained
If someone precious to you needed your help, would you extend it? Would you still do it if it costs you your peace and perhaps even your life? For Tercius, a man mysteriously reborn nearly thirteen years ago, there was only one answer to both questions. Feeling compelled, he sets out to journey to the northern Sogea and its infamous Western Izmittor mountain range, a natural stronghold of sky tearing mountains and deep canyons. Legends about the place abounded, but he knew without a doubt that the hidden valleys, rushing rivers, thick forests, and desolate landscapes hid powerful predators, the likes of which stalk the harsh terrains for an easy source of meat and bones. The many natural dangers of Western Izmittor would be hard enough to navigate safely for a lone traveler, but to make matters worse Tercius had enemies in the heights of Western Izmittor, humans and spirits who would see him dead if they ever learned of his true connection to the Pyramid of Tergaron and the Society of the Magi. To make things even more difficult, he also had to ensure that the true extent of his own Innate Skills remained hidden, for if the prying eyes of the world fell on him and his many secrets came to light, then he would never again know a day of peace. Can one reborn man manage to keep his secrets and still succeed in doing what his conscience compels him to? Will he have to choose one over the other? And can he do any of it without reigniting the sparks of a planetary war the likes of which had not been seen in millennia? Follow Tercius’ story and find out! *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** This story is a continuation of Again from Scratch, a story of mine also posted on RR.

8 79Teaching Heroes of Might and Magic
Xianxia, the dream of many. To be reborn in such a world so that you may make yourself a god amongst gods, so that you may rule your own fate and destiny.Well, welcome to reality, because even if you end up in such a realm, who says you get power? Who says you are the one who gets to rule as a god amongst gods? Those stories you read at home on your phone or laptop? Sadly, it just isn't so. Just like Zev, the protagonist of this novel discovered when he was dropped into a world full of Immortals, Monsters, Gods and other monstrous beings. No other worldly power, no other worldly magic, no treasure trove of knowledge or skills was given to him. He was dropped as a mere human, a slightly stronger than average human, into a world where his goal was to simply teach others upon pain of death.-----Full Name of Story [Teaching Heroes of Might and Magic: Mentor of Main Characters]And for the synopsis, I'll first of all state that I am not good at writing them, and this may not have explained the story very well. So I'll just state what the story includes, and what it doesn't. It includes Immortals, demons, gods, etc, you get the idea. What it doesn't include is an actually powerful main character. The main character has a set of unique skills, which include lying, cheating, faking, and all around poker face to get him in and out of situations.Again, the Synopsis needs to be worked on, but for now, that is what it is.
