His Devious Harbinger: How To Tame A Wicked God?

Chapter 233: Does your parents love you?

The girls tremble in fear. The demons are too frightening.

Both the man and the woman are tall. They stand out even if they are wearing plain robes. The man is extremely beautiful. His long, black, and straight hair is darker than the night, but his eyes are anything but calm. 

And the woman is even worse. She has furious storms in her eyes, although her large silver eyes are striking and powerful. 

The girls, who have already met a demon in the shape of a toddler around a few hours ago, pee their pants. They utter in unison, "Please don't kill us."

"Where is my son?" The woman hollers. "If he is harmed in any way --"

"We didn't do anything." The girls burst into tears. They can tell that the man and woman are parents of the demonic toddler. One of the girls begins, "We were trying new symbols"

"It was her fault. She didn't know what it meant."

"But you said that we should experiment."

"Now, we have a big problem because of you."

Abyss inhales sharply. "Tell me where my son is!"

"He was angry." The younger girl cries, "He wanted to kill us."

"Then, I had no choice. I called the postal service," The other girl says. "She took him along with her."

"The inter-dimensional postal service?" Abyss frowns. She knows them. They are quite good. Why did they not come to her? What do they plan to do with her son? How dare they keep her son away from her? She turns toward Adira. "I want my son back within thirty minutes. Otherwise, I will destroy that postal service, this world, and anyone who has harmed Dai."

Adira is relieved that she is giving thirty minutes to him. He doesn't want her to destroy worlds or kill two little girls. Even he knows that the little girls were only trying things that they shouldn't have. They have learned their lessons. There is a high chance that they will even stop practising magic.

It's not that he's not worried about Dai, but their son is the child of two primordial gods. Can anyone harm him?

He can't dare to say that to his wife. "I will find him."

"And you two." Abyss glares at the girls. "If you ever dabble with something you don't know without any adult's supervision, I will come back and punish you."

"W-W-We won't!" The girls promise. "We will never do this again." 

Satisfied by their answer, Abyss returns to Haven since she can't stay in this world for too long.

Suki snorts at the toddler. "What?"

The toddler, who is seated opposite her, is squinting his eyes on her. The bowl of milk is in front of him on the table. He hasn't taken a sip. 

He looks like a little angry kitten. If she hasn't seen what he did with the girls, she would have considered him harmless. "There's no way that I will feed you that. You have hands. I know that you aren't an idiotic toddler. Just drink it."

She resumes eating the meat, sensing the toddler's gaze on it. However, she doesn't budge. He is a kid. He will drink milk. She won't share her meat. Meat is way costlier than milk. 

After she is done, there are only bones left on her plate. Dai glares at her. 

"You know, I am poor." She tells him, "and you look like a toddler. As much as I know, all toddlers drink milk."

"..." Dai picks up the bowl and finishes the milk in one sip.

"Good boy." Suki cleans her hands with the napkins and tosses them on the plate. Then, she picks up her tablet and checks any news about a missing toddler. "Hmm"

There are more than trillions of missing children from different universes. 

"It's somewhat more difficult than I expected it to be," She mumbles to herself. 

Suki doesn't notice the chaos behind her. People begin to show agitation on their faces. Children run around like mad animals. 

"You can't even speak." She stares at the toddler. "If I knew your name, I could find your parents."

Dai puffs his cheeks. It's clear that he is angry because she didn't share the meat with him.

"I can take you to the lost and found department" She creases her forehead. "There's a high chance that you will end up like me."

Suki doesn't like that idea. If this kid becomes a postwoman like her, his childhood is over.

Although she is an angry and frustrated person, she doesn't want others to suffer like her. 

"Does your parents love you?" She asks the toddler. 

After a long minute, he nods his head.

"Then, I shouldn't take you there." She leans back in her seat and taps her fingers. The toddler is definitely a powerful entity. He must be the son of some bigshot. Maybe that bigshot can help her with her case. Then, she should keep him with her and look for his parents while doing her job. Since she travels from one world to another, she is sure that she will find out something. Suki stands up and packs her bags. She leaves some cash for the food. Then, she grabs the toddler and embarks on her next stop.

On the way, she rambles to the toddler whom she is carrying under her arm. "Stay with me. I will give you meat for dinner and milk for breakfast until we find your parents. For lunch, you can eat fruits or cereals. Milk rice isn't bad either."

Dai makes a gagging sound in horror.

"I don't have enough money to buy meat for both of us," She tells him. "I am feeding you meat at dinner time. What else do you need? You are still a freeloader."

Dai doesn't speak, but waves of anger radiate from him. Suki ignores him. If he causes a big scene, she will drop him at some orphanage.

They arrive in the next world. 

Oblivion.
