Sorry for the late chapter. The next one will be out on Wednesday. Enjoy.

Last Night

After making sure that the children had fallen asleep, Selina and Zaenor went into the study room. There were 4 armchairs around a coffee table. Zaenor and Selina sat down, leaving 2 chairs empty. Both of them had serious faces on. As they were sitting there. Suddenly Syra was sitting there on the right side of Zaenor. Selina was situate on the left side of Zaenor. The two just nodded towards Syra. Syra acknowledged their nod and then laid back and closed his eyes. They all just sat their as if waiting for another person. Suddenly, Syra opened his eyes, "Elene is not coming. She is in a bit of trouble, so she can’t make it."

Selina snorted, "Hmm. Good riddance."

Zaenor asked, "Will she be okay?"

Syra nodded, "She should be, there isn’t anything that can threaten her right now."

Zaenor sighed, "Ha, if you say that, then we can be assured."

Selina just looked at the both of them, "Can we get back to the reason why we met up like this?"

Syra just said, "Sure."

Selina's face became serious, "Alright. Those girls, what are they?"

Syra just said, "Hmm. There is no easy way to describe them."

Zaenor asked, "Can you tell us what you know about them first?"

Syra nodded, "Alright. Those two are sisters, twins in fact."

Selina's jaw dropped, "Impossible. Sisters I can believe, but twins? The laws of this world should not allow such things to happen"

Syra hummed while he explained, "The laws don’t matter in their case. They both have different divine ancestries."

Selina and Zaenor suddenly turned towards Syra, their gaze sharpened. Selina asked, "How is that possible? Both parents are from divine bloodlines? Was it intentional? An experiment?"

Syra sighed, "Haah, no it wasn’t intentional and it wasn’t an experiment. Be thankful for that."

Zaenor pushed on, "Then out with it man, who are her parents?"

Syra looked at him in derision, "Use your brain dumbass. Look at their two different races. It should be easy to understand who their parents."

Selina speculated, "The older sister is a cat type demi-human and the younger is an elf. So one of the parents is elf and the other is a demi-human. Is the mother that ‘Frozen Witch’ ?"

Syra smiled, "Hahaha, good guess. But you forgot one thing."

Selina didn't know what she forgot, "Huh?"

Syra continued, "An offspring between a magical beast that can transform into human and a humanoid race also results in a demi-human child."

Selina froze. "!!!!!!"

Syra laughed, "Haha, based on that look on your face I think you’ve guessed it."

Selina shook, "It CAN’T be HIM, right?"

Syra confirmed her thoughts, "Indeed it is him."

Zaenor suddenly interjected, "Umm, who is 'him'?"

Selina remarked, "Idiot, this is why I say that you are a dumbass."

Syra laughed, "Haha, agreed."

Zaenor protested, "Hey stop bullying me and tell me."

Syra explained, "Haha, we are talking about the Tyrant of Niflheim."

Selina added on, "Glacier, Ruler of the Frozen Hell."

Zaenor suddenly stood up in shock, "Syra, are you telling me that THAT OLD GEEZER GOT MARRIED!!"

Syra confirmed it, "Yes."

Zaenor questioned, "To who?"

Selina voiced her train of thought, "His wife is an elf and she has a divine bloodline…… No way. She is from THAT FAMILY???"

Syra laughed at this chain of events, "HAHAHA, yes. Even I would never have guessed that this would have happened.".

Zaenor snickered while looking proud, "Fufufu."

Syra looked at him oddly, "Why are you looking so proud for?"

Zaenor said with pride, "This time even I know what you guys are talking about."

Syra said sarcastically, "Good job."

Selina ignored this and asked Syra a doubt, "How was she even allowed to meet him?"

Syra explained what had happened, "Turns out she is a great-granddaughter of the Vizier and her bloodline was not as strong as her siblings. Therefore she was allowed more freedom because they didn't view her as important. However, the family did not think that she would marry Glacier."

Zaenor stuttered, "No...Way"

Syra asked, "What?"

Zaenor shouted in frustration, "He got married to a young and beautiful wife. UNFAIR, WHY CAN THAT GEEZER ---"

A giant sound rang out. CRASH!!!!!!!!!!

Selina said normally, "Don't mind him."

Syra sighed, "HAHAHA, right."

Selina continued, "Anyway, didn’t they try and break them apart? Knowing the Vizier, he should have interfered. "

Syra nodded, "He did. But with his personality he didn’t interfere directly. He instigated that old monkey to start attacking Glacier’s territory."

Zaenor snickered, "Pbbbb. HAHAHAHA, It seems that old monkey is still a dumbass. HAHAHA"

Selina pointed out to him, "Someone like you shouldn’t be saying that."

Zaenor protested, "Hey!"

Syra interrupted before it would go any further, "Oh stop your little couples argument and listen to what happened next."

Zaenor reluctantly gave up, " …. Fine."

Selina stared at him angrily, "……..Hmph, I’ll get you for that comment later."

Syra didn't even care and continued, "Psssh, in your dreams. Anyway, the Vizier thought that Glacier would immediately leave his great-granddaughter and return to his home because of that old monkey. He didn’t expect that Glacier had already married Lina and took her with him. He also didn't expect that Lina would be pregnant by then."

Selina didn't know the name, "Lina?"

Syra exasperated, "For god’s sake. Lina is the Vizier’s great-granddaughter and those two girl’s mother."

Selina nodded, "Oh….."

Syra continued, "As I was saying, Glacier returned to his territory and stayed in his castle with Lina. It seems the Vizier personally went to Niflheim and attacked Glacier’s castle along with that old monkey. What they didn’t expect was that Lina was about to give birth. Remember getting news of that battle."

Selina nodded, "Yes, a bit less than 4 years ago that dumbass Yeti attacked Glacier and was killed."

Syra explained further, "That was the publicized part. What actually happened was that Glacier was enraged and killed that stupid yeti. Then he engaged in combat with the Vizier and injured him badly."

Selina interjected, "Wait weren’t both the Vizier and Glacier on the same level?"

Syra dressed her question, "Yes, however they were both at the 10th tier. However, that Glacier hid the fact that he broke through."

Selina and Zaenor sat up extremely straight. They were shocked by this fact. Selina sighed, "It seems that the Vizier was beaten quite badly this time."

Syra laughed, "Haha, yup he was beaten black and blue. In fact the only reason why he is still alive is because Lina asked Glacier not to kill him."

Zaenor interrupted, "So the Vizier was beaten. Why are the twins with us then? Shouldn’t they be with their parents right now?"

Syra sighed but answered his question anyway, "You could let me finish the whole story, Anyway I\indeed they should. However, it seems that both the Beast Emperor and the Elf King found out about their existence."

Zaenor grimaced, "Oh shit. This complicates things terribly."

Syra sighed softly, "Indeed. They set a time limit. Once the girls reach 18 years of age, they will be taken into custody by the either the Beast Emperor or the Elf King. I'm pretty sure that the Beast Emperor is going to take Yuki and the Elf King is going to take Sylphie."

Selina speculated, "So Lina enlisted the help of Elene to help send the twins far away. If they do not have the twins, then they can’t turn them over to the Emperor or the King."

Syra affirmed her speculation, "Exactly. Fortunately, they do not know the appearance of the twins. They only know that Glacier has two children, twins. They are not even sure of the gender of the kids. So they should be safe here. After all, most would not dare to make trouble here. This is our territory after all."

Selina nodded, "Indeed and with you here even the Beast Emperor would reconsider before taking any action."

Hearing this, Syra just smiled. Selina just continued, "Now our focus should be on how to protect those poor girls."

Syra lifted an eyebrow and said, "Isn’t it obvious? Just leave them to Ryu."

Selina shouted, "What are you talking about!!!"

Syra rolled his eyes, "Oh come on. You’ve seen how they act around him. I am willing to bet anything that those two will marry your son when they grow up."

Selina looked down and kept quiet. Zaenor sighed, "It’s alright Selina. They are nice children and don’t you like them?"

Selina looked up and said, "That’s not the problem now."

Zaenor asked, "Then what is the problem?"

Selina explained the problem, "If he already has two girls before he even turns 5 years old, think about how many girls he will have!!"

Zaenor mumbled, "The..heavens are truly not fair……"

Syra laughed, "HAHAHA, based on your thinking I am 100% sure that you are sad because your son is the one to complete the true man’s dream and not you."

Zaenor just sighed, "Haaaah."

Syra moved onto a new topic, "Enough of that. I suggest that you put aside these for now and focus on training Ryu. He might surpass all of us so be sure to train him well."

Selina stated, "Obviously. His training will start tomorrow."

Syra cautioned, "Remember not to put too much stress on his body otherwise it might be harmful."

Selina & Zaenor said in sync, "Who do you think we are, amateurs?"

Syra lifted an eyebrow, "You are in total sync when it comes to training huh? Anyway let’s leave this for now. Focus mostly on academic studies and not cultivation. At this point it is more helpful for him to swing the sword rather than cultivate."

Selina exasperated, "Yeah, Yeah, just leave."

Syra said, "Alright, see you."

Saying this he disappeared. Selina and Zaenor just stared into the ceiling thinking of various training methods for Ryu.

Have a nice week!
