Godslayer: A random filename extension?

"Let's talk about the gift. I heard from Qiye that you prepared a gift for me? What is it?"

At this point, we should change the subject, and a gift can't just be a hug.

Lin Linhou told Nyx to stand still and began to ask this question.

"Oh, right, the gift! Father, please wait a moment."

Nix turned and went back to the bedside table, rummaging through it, pulling out yarn, needles, dolls, medicine bottles, flowerpots, earthenware pots... even underwear?!

Pa~!

Lin Qiye: (?w?) Pfft~

Lin Linhou: ...

"The room is so tidy, so why is the closet so messy? Qiye, do you ever teach your mom how to organize and tidy up?"

Lin Linhou took down the underwear hanging above her head and placed it on the bed next to her. Then she looked around the bed and saw that there were all sorts of miscellaneous things around it in just a short time.

Finally, Nyx pulled out a translucent crystal ball, which was sparkling with light inside and looked very beautiful.

"Found it, found it. Here you go, this will definitely be of help."

Nix handed the crystal ball to Lin Linhou, and then began stuffing all the miscellaneous items back into the small bedside table.

But even though he could take them all out, it seemed like he couldn't fit them all back in. Nyx frowned and started to forcefully close the lid, making a creaking sound.

Lin Qiye: (||?_?).

"Um, Mother! Let me help you tidy up. Don't force the flower pots and jars back in."

Nyx turned his head to look at Lin Qiye.

"Danadus, so you're here too? What a good boy, then I'll leave it to you to help out."

Lin Qiye: T^T? ...

That's heartbreaking. So, all this time, you didn't even notice me?

Lin Qiye inexplicably felt a sense of being out of favor.

Lin Linhou was examining the crystal ball in his hand.

After all, he wouldn't consider this just a simple decoration.

Playing around is one thing, but the other party is, after all, one of the creator goddesses, so the gift they gave must be something like a divine artifact.

"Mengqing, have the scan results come back yet?"

[Almost done... the results are in.]

[The Origin of the Stars: One of the primordial gods in Greek mythology, half of Nyx, the goddess of night, who split off from her divine essence, and is one of the authorities governing the laws of the stars.]

[Effect: The possessor is essentially holding a fragment of Nyx's divine essence, allowing them to unleash Dark Night Divine Void-related skills without being affected by the alternation of day and night, and with greatly increased power.]

[After reaching the Klein realm, when breaking through from the demigod level to godhood, one can choose to use it as the carrier of the laws of godhood, or absorb it to supplement and strengthen one's own laws.]

Lin Linhou: ⊙_⊙

What the heck? If I'm not mistaken...

"You split off a part of your own godhood? How dangerous is that? Isn't that just ridiculous?"

Lin Linhou is not a complete novice in cultivation.

He could understand or guess the importance of divinity to a god in this world.

The opponent's divine status was already damaged, and now that half of it has split off, it's likely that not only will Nyx become weaker, but he will also become even weaker.

If things go wrong, most gods will perish.

The product is good, but a bit too good.

Lin Linhou frowned as she looked at Nix in front of her. Just a moment ago, she had looked like she was taking credit, but now she lowered her head timidly.

Nix didn't understand why her father was angry.

Chaos reappears, grows and gathers all laws, returns to chaos, and is the creation of a new world an inevitable process?

I don't want to die yet, but before the end of the world, I'm willing to give half of my power to my father. Shouldn't he be happy and praise me?

Why scold yourself?

I feel wronged and want to cry (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c).

And when she felt like crying, she actually started crying loudly, asking why as she cried.

Lin Linhou: (?i _ i?)……

"No! Um, I didn't mean to scold you... Qiye, stop putting up vases and come help."

Lin Qiye: (′- へ -,).

What does this have to do with me? You're the one who made me cry, so go and comfort me. I still need to tidy up the bedside table.

Besides, my mother already has a mental illness, and you're further provoking her. Whoever provoked her should take responsibility.

Although Nyx's treatment progress had begun to slow down, Lin Qiye had no intention of going forward to help.

The crying coming from here also attracted Li Yifei and Meilin, who were relaxing and playing chess in the courtyard.

"What happened? What did the two older brothers do to make Grandma so heartbroken?"

"If there's a conflict in your family values, don't change the subject. It's your turn to leave. If you can't win, just admit defeat quickly."

Merlin told Li Yifei to focus on his own game.

"Hey~? Why am I the one who has to concede again? I can't beat you in international chess, but I can't beat you in Chinese chess?! Checkmate! Rook capture!"

Merlin: Hehe~ ←_←.

Three minutes later...

"General, dead! The game is over."

Merlin even captured all of Li Yifei's chess pieces before finally checking the game.

Absolutely brutal killing!

"Oh dear! No way! Let's change the board! This time, let's play Go! You've definitely never played Go before, right?"

Li Yifei switched to a Go board, and then...

"Second Personality! Activate! Come on, you play against him."

If he can't get out of this situation, can't he at least call for reinforcements?

Jingnan Snake Demon: ……???……

Politeness? Damn it, I was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night.

Merlin: Hehe~

"It doesn't matter which personality you have. The absolute difference in strength is right here. Even if I hadn't played against you, you would still lose once I became familiar with the rules."

On the other hand, Lin Linhou spent a lot of effort, appealing to his emotions and reasoning with him, before finally calming Nyx down.

Lin Linhou: ( ??w?? ) So tired...

He finally understood why so many irresponsible parents would choose to beat or scold their children to save themselves trouble.

It's exhausting to try to comfort someone with words.

For example, in his past life, when he went to a classmate's house, the classmate's parent would always say to comfort the crying child: "If you cry again, I'll hit you again!" The more the child cried, the harder they hit him.

In the end, the child's fear and pain overwhelmed their sadness, so they naturally forced themselves not to cry, or they simply fainted from the pain.

And while the child may indeed become obedient and stop crying in the future, making this method seem very useful, one day the child's accumulated pain, fear, and sadness will surpass the instinctive fear of death.

Then, it's said that the classmate's younger brother, after being scolded for making a series of small mistakes, jumped off a building...

We've gone off on a tangent (_ _ヘ).

After confirming that the stripping of this part of the divine essence did not have such a serious impact on Nyx herself, Lin Linhou had no choice but to accept it in order to appease her emotions.

Furthermore, Nyx only has a mental problem, not an intellectual one.

How could she possibly act recklessly and risk accidentally killing herself?

"Mother, the cabinet has been tidied up. Flower pots and the like are on the windowsill, clothes are in the wardrobe next to it, and the dolls are under the wardrobe. Only the sewing supplies and other odds and ends are in the original cabinet..."

"Danadus, my good boy, you did a wonderful job. This makes it so much easier for me to find things."
