The conclusion was this: Zenith was Allen's true god.

Hearing the commotion outside, she stormed out of the kitchen and rescued Allen from his fiery predicament.

"I can guarantee on Allen's behalf that he will never intimidate Somar again. I am truly sorry." Paul bowed his head, apologizing profusely to Mrs. Somar, while Zenith stood beside him, her face cold and silent. The usually gentle and kind Zenith rarely had a pleasant expression for the vixen who was constantly after her husband.

Mrs. Somar, her face slightly flushed, looked at the ground. Then, under Allen's dumbfounded gaze, she put on an expression that said, 'Since you've apologized, I'll reluctantly accept,' and spoke to Paul in a soft, delicate voice.

Lady! What happened to your attitude from before? Are you trying to play the pure love card with me now?!

After watching Mrs. Somar leave, turning back every three steps, Paul finally turned to Allen, his hands on his hips and his face stern.

"Allen, what happened?"

He had adopted the tone of a man about to lecture a child.

After all, in Paul's eyes, Allen was the son of his good friend and cousin. No matter how much fun they had fencing, the moment he realized Allen might have done something wrong, he naturally assumed the role of an adult.

Just as Allen was about to explain, Zenith let out a cold snort, stomped her foot, and turned back towards the kitchen.

Paul looked in astonishment at Zenith, who had been so cheerful just last night, wondering what had happened.

Allen covered his face and immediately leaned in to whisper in Paul's ear.

"Unc— uh, Master, you might be a little dense, but it seems that Mrs. Somar is very interested in you."

Paul froze for a second, then his eyes lit up. He turned to look at Allen.

"Really?"

Allen: ...

Rudeus: ...

Rudeus watched Paul's reaction and covered his own face.

The anger on his stern face vanished in an instant. Lord Paul, you're as easy to read as ever...

Allen pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Yesterday, I saw Somar bullying Rolls's kid by the paddy field, throwing mud at her. So I reprimanded them a little. But I promise, I absolutely did not... uh... lay a hand on them."

Paul froze, his eyebrows shooting up.

"That happened? Mrs. Somar always says her kid is so well-behaved. She's always telling me about how her child is doing... eh, wait a minute, could it be..."

"...Yes, that's right. She's actually just finding excuses to talk to you, Master. The Mistress probably knew about Mrs. Somar's intentions long ago, which is why she's upset."

Paul swallowed hard, then glanced nervously at Lilia, who had been standing quietly by the side the whole time. He quickly ran towards the kitchen.

"Zenith! Let me explain... I really didn't know—"

Rudeus, however, looked at Allen, who was watching Lilia thoughtfully, and leaned in to whisper in his ear.

"Mrs. Somar hasn't gone far yet... you should hurry and chase after her. I'll just say you went to find Sylph—Ouch!"

Allen flicked Rudeus on the forehead and said irritably, "Go be cute in the kitchen and save your father. Don't you want breakfast? I can already smell something burning."

Rudeus froze for a second, then also ran towards the kitchen.

Allen turned to look at Lilia. She quickly glanced up at Allen, then pushed up her glasses.

"I'll go help, too..."

Allen watched Lilia practically flee towards the kitchen and stroked his chin thoughtfully.

So there was already foreshadowing for the affair. In the original story, Lilia only got together with Paul when Zenith was pregnant and he had nowhere to vent his energy. But now, at this point in time, the two of them already have... no, wait, last night's situation didn't seem like that. It's more likely that Paul harasses Lilia from time to time, but she doesn't resist...

When will this family ethics drama truly begin? If I were to warn her now, Aisha might not be born... but maybe not. After all, it was Paul who actively sneaked into her room. Warning this guy at this point would probably be meaningless.

Allen smiled.

Life in this house is getting more and more interesting. Aisha, Norn... how much longer until they're born...

---

Breakfast was delayed by an hour.

The reason was that Paul had spent the entire time in the kitchen appeasing his wife.

Fortunately, a scoundrel's glib tongue is always effective, and Zenith forgave him before long.

By the time they were eating, Paul was in a great mood. He even smiled and told Allen and Rudeus that if they wanted, they could invite Sylphie over as a guest. Possibly out of consideration for the two boys having made a new friend, he magnanimously declared that the day's swordsmanship lesson was cancelled, allowing them to go out and play.

Only when seeing them off, Paul kept clutching Zenith's hand, while she, under Lilia's watchful gaze from behind, tried several times to pull it away without success...

Perhaps having the children out of the house was more conducive to marital harmony.

"By the way, we didn't say goodbye to Sylph yesterday, nor did we ask where she lives. How are we going to find her?"

Allen pulled his gaze back from watching Paul and Zenith and shrugged.

"That hill from yesterday. I think Sylphie might go there."

"Really?"

"Just a guess. We don't have anything else to do anyway, so let's go check."

Allen had no time to bother with Rudeus, as he was currently arguing with the system.

*[Instant Quest: The Temptation of the Big Truck, has failed. Evaluation: A pity. 2 points is still points.]*

'A pity my ass! What is this nonsense? Do you even know what 'big truck' means? Why are you using it so randomly? I'm taller than her, so even if she's older than me, she can't be called a big truck, can she?'

*[I see, so it's a matter of height. My apologies. I'll be sure to get it right next time.]*

'Crap.'

---

Sure enough, when the two of them reached the hill, a small figure was standing under the tree. She wasn't playing, just constantly looking around. When she saw the two figures approaching from a distance, she jumped on the spot a few times, then seemed to struggle to control her limbs before finally managing a normal running posture and hurrying towards them.

Seeing this, Allen couldn't help but smile, his steps becoming much lighter. He called out a greeting from afar.

"Morning! Were you waiting for us here on purpose?"

Sylphie nearly tripped, visibly flustered.

"N-No! I wasn't! I..."

"See! I told you Sylph wouldn't be waiting for us on purpose, Allen. You were so sure she'd be here. It's obviously just a coincidence." Rudeus retorted irritably.

"Fine, fine, you're right."

Sylphie had now reached them. Hearing Allen's words, her expression changed. She grabbed Rudeus's head and, as he flailed his arms, tried her best to hide him behind her. The two of them were both so small that Sylphie's back couldn't possibly hide Rudeus.

"No! Allen! That's not it! I was... it's..."

Allen looked at the suffocating Rudeus, smiled, and casually ruffled Sylphie's head.

"Sorry, it was my carelessness that got you two poisoned yesterday. Are you still feeling unwell?"

Sylphie's ears twitched. Her reddish-brown eyes reflected a magnificent luster in the sun. She slowly lowered her hand from Rudeus's head.

"No, I'm fine..."

"Hah!" Rudeus finally broke free, gasping for air as if he had just surfaced from water. He glared at Sylphie and Allen.

"Hey, hey, I'm the one who's not feeling well!"

Allen stroked his chin, looking at the two of them.

Come to think of it, Sylphie also has the Laplace Factor. This is earlier than in the novel's plot. If she starts practicing increasing her mana capacity now, she'll have a better chance of landing safely if she falls from the sky after the Teleport Incident.

"Rudy, why don't you teach her magic?"
