Becoming Their Guiding Spirit

# Chapter 203: How Is It You, Again and Again?? ”Lucas~”

In the evening.

Lucas was hanging out at Jessica’s house as usual. The main reason was that Jessica’s home was lively with many people.

Jessica asked with a smile.

”It’s been almost a month. Are you getting used to Rhodes Island?”

Lucas nodded.

”It’s alright. There aren’t that many people at Rhodes Island, so I’m already familiar with about eighty percent of them.”

”Are there any girls?”

Franka, who was nearby, asked probingly, a sly expression flashing across her face.

”There are.”

Lucas was very direct.

”Oho~”

Franka narrowed her eyes, her charming face showing a foxy, bewitching look.

”So direct. Aren’t you afraid our little Jessica will get jealous?”

”Senior Franka!!”

Jessica’s pretty face flushed, and she puffed out her cheeks.

”However, I’m planning to go to Yan tomorrow afternoon. I’m going with Miss Closure to restock in Lungmen and Yan, and also to take a look around Yan.”

Jessica said, ”I’ve been to Yan once, with my father two years ago. In my opinion, Yan is truly the most unique country on Terra, bar none. In terms of both traditional culture and ancient history, few countries on Terra can compare.”

”We’re just going to restock, not for tourism.”

Just then.

Nian, who was nearby making final revisions to her award acceptance speech manuscript, suddenly looked up. In a flash, she rushed over.

”Lucas, you’re planning to go to Yan?”

”Yeah.”

Lucas nodded.

”Then I’ll go too. I was born and raised in Yan, so I’m very familiar with it. I’ll go too. I also want to see my sister Dusk. It’s not good for her to always be cooped up at home. She needs to get out and see the world. If she’s a shut-in all day, she won’t be able to get married in the future.”

”Huh?”

A thousand question marks appeared above Lucas’s head.

”By the way, you Divine Fragments... don’t you have infinite lifespans? And you don’t age. Do you need to get married?”

”Tsk...”

Nian patted Lucas’s spiritual shoulder.

”So blunt, Lucas. Be careful, or you’ll never find a wife with that attitude.”

Jessica subconsciously retorted, ”He will!!”

Then, after saying it, her face instantly turned red again, and she shyly stood up to check on Ceobe’s homework.

”Have you never heard of the Legend of the White Snake from Yan?”

”Legend has it that in Yan, there was a great demon who was a divine fragment of another ancient god, in the form of a snake. She had a younger sister who was born with her, a green snake. Their relationship was similar to mine and my sister Dusk’s. They cultivated for a thousand years and were quite powerful. Although not as strong as me, they were much stronger than mortals. Then, that white snake met a mortal and fell in love with him.”

”And then?”

Franka looked up. As an avid novel reader, she naturally loved to listen to stories.

”And then... of course they got married and had children.”

Franka couldn’t help but smack her lips.

”By the way, can a mortal and a snake have a baby? Isn’t there reproductive isolation? And what if, while in bed, Miss White Snake got too excited and couldn’t help but reveal her snake form? Wouldn’t that leave a lifelong trauma for that mortal man?”

”Uh....”

Franka’s sharp question left Nian silent for a long time.

”I don’t know the details; it’s just a myth. Besides... it’s almost impossible for a divine fragment to fall in love with a mortal.”

Nian shrugged. ”Putting other things aside, the lifespan issue is a problem in itself. The lifespan of a divine fragment is practically infinite. For example, me—can you tell I’m several thousand years old? Humans are lucky to live a few hundred years. Some powerful long-lived races might live for a thousand or two, but that’s still nothing compared to someone like me.”

”Oh well, anyway, I’ll go with you when you go to Yan.”

Nian patted Lucas’s shoulder and went back to revising her speech.

”I’ll go too... can I..”

Surtr, who had been sitting quietly for a long time, finally managed to utter a sentence.

”Sure.”

Lucas did not refuse Surtr’s request.

To Lucas, Yan was still relatively dangerous. There were too many extraordinary individuals there, and he couldn’t exert much of his combat power in the ’Doctor’s’ body. But if Surtr was there, Lucas would feel more at ease.

However.

Lucas felt that Nian was hiding something.

Her purpose for going to Yan probably wasn’t that simple.

After all.
