1167 You Deserve A Happy Ending [Part 1]
Lux slept for an entire week, not opening his eyes even when Aurora washed his body in the small private pool of their room.
His physical, emotional, and mental states weren't in their best condition after he returned to Elysium.
It was only now that Lux could truly rest properly, so his body completely shut down to prevent the Half-Elf from waking up even once until he was fully recovered.
When Lux opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a cute little baby looking at him.
Her beautiful golden eyes stared at him with curiosity, and a faint smile could be seen on her face.
Lux thought that he might be in a dream, so he reached out his finger to lightly poke the baby's cheek.
The smile on the baby's face widened, and her eyes looked as if they were smiling too.
The Half-Elf couldn't help but feel his entire body turn warm with happiness, melting from the expression of the baby, whom he believed was his daughter, Dia.
A moment later, the baby's small hand reached out and grabbed Lux's finger, holding onto it.
The Half-Elf slowly lowered his finger, but Dia still held onto it.
A few seconds later, she yawned and closed her eyes to sleep while still holding onto the finger in her hand.
Lux was only wearing a bathrobe without any underwear. It seems that Aurora thought that it wouldn't be a big deal to simply dress him in a bathrobe while he was sleeping.
Soon, the Half-Elf sensed the presence of two other people as they entered the room.
They were none other than Queen Rhiannon and Aurora, who had left Dia to look after her Papa while he slept.
"It seems that my sweetheart has become tired from watching over you, sleepyhead," Queen Rhiannon said in a teasing tone as she laid down beside her daughter, with her head resting on the palm of her hand.
"Such an adorable scene," Aurora said softly as she, too, lay beside Lux, while resting her chin on the back of her intertwined hands. "I'm sure my baby will just be as cute as Dia. Perhaps even cuter."
"Impossible," Queen Rhiannon was quick to shoot down Aurora's statement. "Nothing is cuter than my daughter."
"But I'm also your daughter."
"… You know, you're actually right."
The two beautiful women then giggled at the same time, but they immediately stopped when they saw Dia's face scrunched up in her sleep.
As soon as they stopped making noise, Dia's face once again eased up as she continued to sleep peacefully while holding onto her Papa's finger.
'Let's just talk through telepathy, so we don't wake up Dia,' Aurora said through telepathy. 'Lux, I have something to tell you. While you were sleeping, James said that he would be gone for a week or two because he needed to attend his granddaughter's birthday party in his home world.'
'Lord Antero also asked me to pass a message to you,' Queen Rhiannon stated. 'You should stay here for a week or two because he plans to give you something before you return to Elysium. He said that it is something that will help you when you fight against Nyarlathotep later on.'
Lux frowned after hearing the news that his return to Elysium would have to be delayed.
Although he still had some of the White Marbles that could instantly take him back to Elysium, he decided to not use them for now and wait until the Golem of Destruction had given him the thing that he could use to fight against the Outer God.
Also, he didn't know if the White Marble would still work since the connection between the Abyss and Elysium had been cut off.
There was a possibility that he might be sent to some other place in the Multiverse, and Lux didn't want to take the chance.
He would rather wait for James to return and play it safe than be stranded in an unknown place for eternity.
Now that he had become a Supreme, his Named Creatures, as well as the members of his Covenant, had stepped into the Demigod Rank.
Even Eiko, who was in Elysium, received this boon, allowing her to step into the Demigod Rank as well.
Lux felt restless because he didn't know what was happening in Elysium.
His Guild Chat wasn't working, so he couldn't contact Aina, Aurelia, and Ari to ask for any news on their side.
Perhaps, feeling his restlessness, Aurora untied the knot on Lux's bathrobe before taking it off his body.
"A-Aurora, there is a baby here," Lux looked in disbelief at his lover, who had undressed him in a span of a few seconds. "Don't do anything that might be a bad influence on her. She is still a baby."
Aurora blinked innocently at Lux before raising her hand to use telekinesis to make the vial of aromatic oil on top of the table fly toward her hand.
After catching the vial, Aurora lathered her hand with a generous serving of aromatic oil before pressing it on the Half-
Elf's leg.
She then started to massage his leg with expert movements, making Lux gasp due to how good it felt.
Aurora slowly worked her way downward to Lux's feet and lovingly kneaded his ankle, targeting the pressure points there.
Once she was done, she also massaged his other leg. After that, her hands gradually moved higher and higher, teasing the sides of his lower abdomen, close enough to, but not touching, Little Lux, who had started to twitch in anticipation.
The Half-Elf knew exactly what Aurora was doing, but he didn't do anything to stop her and simply enjoyed the softness and strength of her hands, which were relieving him of the hidden aches in his body.
A few minutes later, Queen Rhiannon gently pried Lux's index finger from Dia's grip so that he could turn to his stomach, allowing Aurora to massage his back.
Lux couldn't help but sigh in relief as Aurora's hands applied pressure to his back, giving him the most amazing massage of his life.
