Chapter 1888: Pretty Women Are Indeed All Liars
Looking at Irina"s pure smile at this moment, Mag felt the darkness in his heart dissipated, and a warmth slowly rose up.
Irina curled her lips slightly when she saw Mag looking at her in a daze, but she coyly said, "Someone said he is still waiting for others to make the first move, so don"t fall in love with me so easily."
"Yes. I can"t even control myself like this. I can only blame the lady for being too pretty," Mag said with a smile too.
"Ow…"
Ah Zi, which had just turned back, discovered Mag below, and let out a surprised howl before das.h.i.+ng down, and landed above the water, making ripples across the surface.
"Father!" Amy let out a breath of relief after seeing that Mag and Irina were alright. Then, she curiously asked, "Where"s the devil? Have you guys got rid of it?"
"There"s no devil in that cave, so we returned after making one round." Mag shook his head with a smile.
"Oh, I see." Amy nodded, feeling a little fortunate and yet a little disappointed.
"Let"s go take a look at the vicinity, and then it"s time for us to go home." Mag leaped onto the griffin, kept the canoe, and then got Ah Zi to take to the skies.
Ah Zi took them to a beautiful valley full of flowers. The two children wore their crowns of flowers, and went on their journey back home happily.
"It"s so interesting. I like excursions like this! Should we make more trips like this in the future?" Amy, carrying a bouquet and wearing a flower crown, looked at Mag expectantly.
"Of course, if you guys like it, we can come out to play as a family on every rest day." Mag nodded smilingly. His mood also became bright and happy after seeing the happy smiles on the little ones" faces.
"Father is great!" Amy jumped up to hug Mag, and pecked him on the cheeks.
"I suggested coming here to play today," Irina said lightly while looking into the distance, as if she was just making a casual comment.
Amy pecked Irina on the cheeks obediently too before smilingly saying, "Mother is great too!"
"Mm-hm." Irina made a casual acknowledgement, but she couldn"t hide the smile in her eyes.
Annie made two flower crowns deftly, and put them on Mag"s and Irina"s head respectively.
Irina took out a copper mirror, and looked at her reflection carefully before she smilingly turned to say to Annie, "It"s so pretty. I love it. Thank you, Annie."
Annie smiled too, and made a "heart" gesture.
ღ( ́・ᴗ・`)
"I like it too. Annie really has a pair of deft hands," Mag also said smilingly. Although it was a little awkward for a man like him to wear a flower crown, he didn"t care as long as his children were happy.
Ah Zi soon brought them back to the periphery of Chaos City, and they stopped at the top of a mountain 50 km away.
"Amy, you two will go back to the restaurant with your mother first. I need to run an errand. I have made a dinner arrangement tonight to celebrate you getting the champion," Mag said to Amy and Annie with a smile.
Amy nodded obediently before reminding him, "Oh. Then, you"ve got to come back early."
"Mm-hmm. I will be back home soon." Mag nodded.
Amy and Annie stepped into Irina"s teleportation portal, and disappeared from the mountain top.
Mag looked around to make sure he was alone before changing into his gear, putting on his mask, and riding Ah Zi to Chaos City.
Mag decelerated and lowered his alt.i.tude when he approached Chaos City.
According to the rules of Chaos City, 10th-tier powerhouses were not restricted by the flying restrictions. They could fly at will in the city as long as they made sure they didn"t hurt any civilians and damage any properties.
"Look! That griffin is actually purple!"
"Perhaps that is the legendary purple-striped griffin? Alex"s steed?!"
"It"s him! It"s him! It has to be him! Our hero, Alex!"
As Ah Zi was flying in at a lower alt.i.tude, and his attention-attraction purple lightning strips were so distinguishable, people soon recognized his ident.i.ty.
Exclamations and praises could be heard constantly from beyond the west of the city to the north of the city. Almost the entire city was in an uproar.
Looking at those maidens who were waving their silk scarves crazily, and screaming at the top of their lungs, Mag couldn"t help but lament, "Pretty women are indeed all liars. They just said that they wanted to give birth to my children at the booth yesterday, and today they are already chasing after a man who flies in the sky, and saying the same thing to him…"
To be frank, Mag didn"t expect that he would be so popular.
Although Alex—who had incomparable dragon-slaying accomplishments, and his Tian Du sword only slew famous people—was very famous as the top knight, his influence was mostly focused in the Roth Empire.
This was Chaos City, a cosmopolis that had all the races living together.
He didn"t expect to have so many admirers here.
He was even wondering mischievously how many among these fans would make the conversion if he removed his mask now, and said, "Come and learn to cook with me."
Meanwhile, after seeing Alex"s influence, Mag had a plan to divert the fans. He would try it out when there was a chance.
"Ah Zi, faster. Go to Aden Square and stop in front of the ice cream shop," Mag instructed, and Ah Zi immediately accelerated. It glided past all the rooftops, and finally landed in front of the ice cream shop.
Everyone"s attention was attracted by it.
The purple-striped griffin!
The dragon slayer, the strongest knight under the starry sky, the savior with the lightning—Alex!
That man had finally appeared!
The always crowded Aden Square went into an uproar immediately.
If Alex in the past was simply the hero in the Roth Empire"s people"s heart, the people of Chaos City already deemed Alex as the savior after they lived through the lockdown.
There were so many things to admire about him, so he became the national idol.
"It"s him!" Elizabeth, who was helping Yabemiya make ice cream, suddenly saw the man on the purple-striped griffin"s back through the gla.s.s door. The familiar mask and the casually slung Tian Du sword.
Alex!
The man she had deemed her number one enemy! The person whom she was looking for frantically!
However, she didn"t have much hatred for him now.
If it weren"t for him, she would have died at the hands of Fox and those killer rules during the duel that day. She also wouldn"t have come to settle at Chaos City.
He saved her life, and just based on that alone, she could no longer say that she wanted to kill him.
But what was he doing here today?
Yabemiya looked out, and her eyes instantly lit up. "Wow. What a beautiful griffin. Isn"t that Big Sister Irina"s man? Did he come here to eat ice cream?"
They had fought alongside with Alex at the goblins" border, so Yabemiya wasn"t afraid of him. She simply thought that he was a very cool man. Of course, he was also very compatible with Big Sister Irina.
Mag went in, and said to Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, I would like to talk to you alone."
