Bab 16: Chapter 16: Someone is Waiting for You to Come Home (Edited)

Melissa paused, first glancing at the maid busy in the kitchen, then looking puzzled towards the door.

Then, Melissa ran to open the door, seeing Klein standing there. Her eyes lit up instantly but then she exclaimed in shock, "Klein, your chest! What happened? Are you hurt?"

"I'll get the medicine. No, we need to go to the hospital, right now." Usually mature and calm, Melissa was completely panicked because she saw that Klein's chest had a large tear as if cut by a knife. Although she couldn't see the deeper wound, she could see the coagulated blood on the surface of his clothes, which made her imagine many bad things.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, Melissa, this isn't my blood," Klein said, stunned for a moment, then remembered his chest injury.

It's not surprising that Klein forgot. After his chest wound was healed, he was immediately overwhelmed by a huge amount of information. Then he went to support the guarding of the Chanis Gate, followed by entertaining the strong individuals from the cathedral and answering their inquiries.

With this series of events, Klein had indeed been so busy that he forgot to take care of his clothes.

Fortunately, the wound had already healed. Klein thought for a moment and found a reason for his clothes, claiming that the blood belonged to a victim he saved, and his clothes were torn in the process of being a Good Samaritan.

In a way, this was true.

"By the way, the person I saved was very grateful and gave me some compensation, about 50 pounds." Having long wanted to find an opportunity to improve the family's conditions and give them some money, Klein took this chance to say, "I think we can use this money to buy some things, for example, Melissa, you could use a new dress. You have too few dresses..."

"No, Klein, I already have a new dress, I don't need more. You should save that money..." Melissa shook her head, showing a disapproving look. Then she bit her lip, looked at the torn clothes on Klein's chest again, hesitated, and said, "Klein, I'm not saying what you did was wrong. Helping others is good, and I'm proud to have a brother like you, but... but..."

"If something like this happens again, I hope you can protect yourself first." Melissa said seriously, looking into Klein's eyes.

Beside them, Benson also spoke up, "Klein, we are not trying to stop your good deeds. It's just that, no matter what, we want you to remember that we are waiting for you to come home."

Klein was stunned. He looked at Benson and Melissa in front of him, opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.

In the end, he just nodded heavily, showing a bright smile:

"I will."

...

While the Moretti family was enjoying a warm moment watching a play together, in the Second Epoch, when the Ancient Sun God returned to the base with the two little ones, the atmosphere was strange.

A tall, rugged-looking man with dark blue hair and a somewhat casual outfit leaned against a wine table. His gaze fell on the two little ones beside the Ancient Sun God, showing a clearly surprised expression.

In a slightly more distant spot from the blue-haired man sat another person, a man dressed in a highly ostentatious manner, shining with gold. If it weren't for the fact that they were indoors, one might suspect they would be blinded by the gold accessories on him.

Unlike the obvious surprise of the blue-haired man, the golden man was clearly better at hiding his emotions, only discreetly scrutinizing Lynn and Medici with an appraising look.

Behind them, clad in a simple linen robe with silver-white long hair, a beautiful face, and soft features, Ouroboros was holding a paintbrush, apparently painting something originally.

However, upon seeing the Ancient Sun God bring back two little ones, even the typically slow-reacting Ouroboros paused his painting.

He quietly stared at Lynn and Medici for a few seconds, finally revealing an expression of sudden realization, saying, "Master, is this the interesting thing you mentioned before?"

What?

Upon hearing this, Lynn raised an eyebrow and glanced at the Ancient Sun God.

Good heavens, they had noticed him a long time ago. No wonder they appeared so coincidentally.

Is this what it means to be a big shot?

Medici also looked at the Ancient Sun God thoughtfully.

Under everyone's gaze, the Ancient Sun God remained calm, showing a gentle smile. After nodding slightly to Ouroboros, he introduced, "This is Lynn and Medici. They are Sequence 2, a Sage and a Weather Warlock respectively, and will be living with us from now on."

He then looked at Lynn and Medici, introducing them in turn, "The blue-haired one is Leodero, a Calamity of the Tyrant Pathway. Although he looks fierce and is indeed often in a bad mood, his temperament isn't bad, just a bit quick-tempered."

At this point, the Ancient Sun God paused, glancing at Leodoro with some hesitation, but continued, "Leodero likes to sing, but his singing has a unique aesthetic. So, if he wants to practice singing, it's better to avoid him, as everyone's tastes might differ."

Hearing this, Leodero's expression instantly stiffened but did not refute anything, only turning his head slightly and muttering something.

Since everyone present wasn't ordinary, they could hear him muttering words like "You just don't appreciate it" and "Rugged beauty! Do you know what rugged beauty is?"

Everyone tacitly pretended not to hear.

After all, they genuinely couldn't appreciate Leodero's singing.

Low EQ: Singing is terrible.

High EQ: A unique aesthetic.

Lynn almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. Although he had guessed the blue-haired man was Leodero, he didn't expect the latter to have the same tone-deaf attribute as The Hanged Man.

No, it should be said that The Hanged Man Alger's tone-deaf attribute was inherited.

However, considering future good colleague relationships, Lynn held back and took the initiative to say, "Hello, Mr. Leodero. Please take care of us in the future."

Next to him, Medici seemed eager to challenge, clearly wanting to provoke a bit.

But before he could do something reckless, Lynn quickly stepped on Medici's foot, drawing attention to himself. He calmly accepted Medici's glare, still wearing a seemingly harmless and friendly smile.

"Smiling like that..." Leodero looked at Lynn's smile with a peculiar expression for a moment, but then he waved his hand and said, "Just call me Leodero. If you have any fighting business, you can find me."

"And, you can also find me for drinking." Leodero added.
