Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 2979

Bygones were bygones, and Severin shook his head to dispel the elation of his recent breakthrough. He had not forgotten that he had incurred the wrath of a royal celestial! Though King Luther resided in the devil realm, who could ascertain whether they might possess peculiar abilities that enabled him to traverse the river of time once more.

At the mere thought of such an unpredictable and potentially fatal factor, Severin's newfound joy dissipated instantly. He snapped to attention and cautioned himself against becoming complacent.

He emerged from his room and treaded lightly on the bluestone path outside. The vegetation around him seemed to bend down to tease his senses. As soon as he walked out of the room, a fragrant breeze teased his nostrils.

"Daddy!" Before he could fully absorb the scene, a diminutive figure flung herself into his embrace. Selene clung to his arm like a sloth, drawing a smile from Severin. Since entering the cave world, he hardly had much time to spend with her, as either he or she would be engrossed in their own training.

With her hair tied up in adorable twin braids and her chubby little face adorned with a small bubble of snot, her smile was as warm and bright as the summer sunshine. Severin felt a surge of paternal warmth as he held his cute little daughter. Pinching her rosy cheeks, Severin chuckled and said, "It's been so long since I last saw you, Selene. Your mother mentioned that you made a breakthrough to Royal Paragon."

Selene smiled in response to the compliment, but a sudden thought seemed to occur to her as she scolded, "You've been naughty, Daddy! Mommy told me you disappeared for over half a year, and you weren't even around when I made the breakthrough to Royal Paragon!"

Caught off guard by Selene's precocious demeanor, Severin found himself torn between laughter and tears. He placate her, "I was wrong, but I've brought you a gift. How does that sound?"

At the mention of a gift, Selene's pout melted into a smile. Her eyes sparkled with anticipation as she said, "In that case, I forgive you."
