Chapter 835: Shenglong's psychological shadow, now recognizes his distant cousin

the next day.

Aaron got up, signed in, washed up briefly, and left his room.

But as soon as he went down the stairs, he saw Hela lying lazily on the sofa, holding a shivering white pet in her arms.

"Abe." Aaron's eyes suddenly widened. Abe couldn't help but have tears in his eyes when he heard the familiar voice. He flapped his claws and was about to return to his master's arms.

But before it could move, a big hand pressed down on its head.

"You, Hela, stop it." Aaron rushed forward angrily, pulled Abe out, and helped it escape from Hela's clutches.

"Master, woooooooooo!!!"

Abei started crying in grievance, pointing a dragon claw at Hela, as if accusing something.

Last night was very sudden! First, he was caught in the room without warning, and then he was threatened with a sword by this strange woman, which left an indelible psychological trauma on this ten-year-old dragon.

“Be good, it’s okay, it’s okay.” Aaron carefully calmed Abei’s emotions, staring at Hela with unkind eyes, “Your Highness Hela, don’t you think you should give me an explanation?”

“Explanation? What explanation?” Hela pretended to be puzzled and asked, “Last night when I was sleeping, I suddenly heard a noise outside the door, and I felt a strong energy. I thought Asgard had sent someone to arrest me.

When I caught it, I was also a little surprised, because Asgard would never send such a creature to capture me.

I thought he was your enemy in Midgard, so I helped you deal with him. You're welcome."

"Thank you? I'm not thanking you for anything!" Aaron cursed angrily, "Abei is my pet that I've raised for ten years. You can't bully him."

"Master, she has bullied me." Abei said sobbingly, and anyone who heard it felt sad and anyone who saw it cried.

“Got it.” Hela waved her hand dismissively. “It’s just a misunderstanding.”

"Misunderstand?"

"What else? You didn't tell me who's in your family. How can I know if they're friends or enemies?"

Aaron:......

It makes sense, but something feels wrong.

"Wait, you mean I have to reveal my personal network to you?"

Hela smiled and nodded, without commenting.

"Haha!" Aaron laughed out of anger, "You wish."

"Okay! But I'm not sure if an accident like last night will happen again."

Aaron's face twitched, and he almost forgot that he was not alone in this world.

“It’s just a joke.” Hela smiled and spread her hands. “You can’t take the initiative to attack others. This is part of the contract.”

"You still know not to attack others, Abe..."

“It doesn’t look like a human!” Hela interrupted meaningfully, then looked at Abei with interest, “What species is your pet?

It’s not like I haven’t seen animals in the atrium before, but the one with wings is definitely not a cat!

Dragon? This is the first time I have seen a dragon like this.

There is a strong magical energy in its body, and it can speak human language. Such a dragon... is really rare."

If Abei heard such comments under normal circumstances, he might have puffed out his chest in pride, but this woman suppressed it with just two moves last night. The terrible oppressive feeling of being at the top of the food chain caused his magic power to stagnate for a short time, leaving him no room for resistance.

At this moment, Hela's praise sounded like naked ridicule to it, shocking its young and fragile heart.

"call!"

Aaron took a deep breath, suppressed his irritability and introduced: "Abei is indeed a dragon, but not a fire dragon, wind dragon, water dragon or the like. It is a holy dragon, and after transformation, it is dozens of meters tall.

It does know some magic, such as healing magic and weather magic, and this is not its upper limit, its magic power is still growing."

Hela raised her eyebrows in surprise. “I like this little guy very much. How about giving it to me?”

"Don't even think about it. I will never hand Abe over to you."

Hela was unmoved and looked at Abei with a smile. "It would be too unfair for you to follow him, but if you follow me, you will enjoy the supreme scenery."

Abe shrank his head. He was not interested in the so-called supreme scenery at all.

“Tsk!” Aaron curled his lips in disdain. “Your Highness Hela, my dragon is not something you can abduct with just a few words.”

“Really? There’s a long way to go.” Hela chuckled, stood up, and walked into the door on the right. “Don’t forget my breakfast.”

"Master, who is this woman?" Abei finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Why is she living in our house?"

"Oh! It's hard to explain in a few words!" Aaron stroked Abe, "I'll tell you slowly!"

Coming to the kitchen, Aaron recounted what happened yesterday in detail while cooking.

Abe pricked up his ears and listened, and he also learned the true identity of the woman sitting on the sofa watching TV outside: Hela, the goddess of death, Odin's eldest daughter, and the sister of Thor and Loki.

"So the master was forced to sign a contract with her?" Abe said indignantly.

“It’s just a stopgap measure.

But if nothing unexpected happens, she will stay in our house until Odin dies."

Abei was a little mad, "Master, can't you find a way to get rid of her?"

"I want to, too!" Aaron said with a wry smile, "But we can't do it unless we are ready to leave the Earth.

But don't worry too much. She and I signed an equal contract and there is no superior-subordinate relationship.

Unless she needs to protect herself, she cannot take the initiative to attack anyone."

"But I am a dragon!" Abe said aggrievedly.

"The misunderstanding has been cleared up. She won't do anything to you." Aaron comforted him patiently, "In short, just treat her as an ordinary tenant."

Hearing this, Abei felt bitter. The psychological trauma from last night was not something an ordinary tenant could leave behind.

Moreover, it is now a sequence eight mind reader of the audience channel. From Hela's expression and behavior, it can sense that the goddess of death seems to have some thoughts about its master.

But it's not like or hate, it's more like a kind of scrutiny and curiosity, as if judging whether he is qualified to do something.

"Master, I..."

boom!

Aaron took out a large piece of meat emitting a golden glow from the refrigerator. The refreshing aroma immediately made Abe swallow back what he wanted to say.

"Master, master, is this a new ingredient?" Abei stared at the beautiful ingredients on the chopping board, his saliva flowing uncontrollably.

There is no need to imagine how it tastes. The luxurious appearance alone is extremely tempting to dragons who love gold, silver and treasures.

“I bought almost a ton of gem meat!

Quite expensive, but tastes really good.

You've been worried all night, and a good meal can help calm your nerves."

Abe nodded excitedly, what the master said was so right.

Top-quality ingredients often require simple cooking methods. Gem meat has top-notch taste and texture from every part, but without any flaws.

The whole piece of meat was divided into three portions. The largest portion was chopped by Aaron into filling for buns, and the smaller portion was put into the pan to squeeze out the juice until it was golden and crispy, and then the oil was controlled and fished out. It was then seasoned with black pepper and cumin, and a beautiful and delicious gem meat popcorn was ready. The rest was used to make a pot of lean meat porridge.

Three simple dishes were served on the table. Hela looked at the high pile of buns in front of Aaron and the buns lower in front of Abe. Then she looked at the plate of seven buns in front of herself that looked normal enough. She blinked blankly. Isn’t the difference a little bit bigger?

“Is this...appropriate?” Hela said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"No problem!" Aaron said meaningfully, "Abei is a dragon, so he has a big appetite. As for me... my body is special. The more I eat, the stronger I become."

“Hehe!” Hela was half-believing and half-doubting. Now that most of her divine power was sealed, she needed to absorb the necessary energy from food. Otherwise, she would not eat such ordinary-looking food on such a simple dining table.

However, once you take a bite, every cell in your body is filled with the taste of joy.

The fatigue of the body and mind seemed to be eliminated in one breath.

"tasty."

“Delicious, right?” Aaron was considerate and shared some of the buns on his plate with Hila. “If it’s delicious, eat more. It’s just an extra pair of chopsticks. I can still afford it.”

Hela rolled her eyes at him but did not refuse. After all, she would be living here for a long time.

As for modesty, the goddess of death never needs that.

“Has your food always been like this?”

"That's it!"

"The taste is impeccable. After I take back the throne of Asgard, you may become my royal chef."

puff!

Aaron almost spit out his food, "Thank you for your appreciation, but I'm not interested.

Besides, I have nothing better to do than to cook for you? What would I gain from that? "

"Power, status, and even beauty."

"I'm sorry, except for beauty, nothing else can tempt me." Aaron was not embarrassed at all, "Besides, my vision is very picky, I don't like ordinary women."

Hela smiled without saying anything and ate silently with her head down.

......

After breakfast, Aaron started his daily routine.

Magic circles, alchemy, medicine making, playing the piano after work, trimming flowers and plants to cultivate sentiment, watching TV during rest time to catch up on news and current affairs.

Hela didn’t interrupt, but was a little surprised by his schedule.

"Don't you find it boring?"

"It's boring, but quite fulfilling." Aaron said helplessly, "Only by becoming the God of Magic, or the father-level strongman in your cognition, can I barely be able to deal with the pit left by my two ancestors.

Unlike Her Highness Hela, you can become a father just by standing on the land of Asgard, and the endless divine power will make you stronger and stronger until you reach the height of Odin. "

“I will surpass him.” Hela said confidently.

"It's good to be confident. I am confident that I can surpass Odin, but it will take a long time."

Boo!

The cry of a phoenix suddenly sounded, and Fox flew out of the flames and landed on Aaron's shoulder with a letter in his mouth.

Hela looked at the red-gold phoenix in surprise, "Is this also your pet?"

“Fox, Phoenix.

Its tears can heal wounds and remove toxins.

It’s also an excellent messenger.”

Aaron took the envelope from Fox's mouth and opened it in front of Hela to read it.

Half a minute later, Aaron pursed his lips thoughtfully.

"Master, what did Qin write?" Abei asked curiously.

"Professor X has to arrange a teacher exam, so the meeting time will be postponed for two weeks." Aaron said with some regret, "But it doesn't matter. If she came today, I would really have a hard time explaining it."

“Your Highness Hela.” Aaron showed a flattering expression, “Can we discuss something?”

"Tell me."

"My girlfriend will be here in half a month, so..."

“Oh!” Hela pretended to be surprised. “You want me to avoid it?”

“That’s not the case.

As the saying goes, you can avoid the first day, but you can’t avoid the fifteenth.

You can hide it this year, but you can't hide it next year. You have to live in my house for at least several years. I can't hide it even if I want to. "Aaron said with a wry smile, "I mean you might as well pretend to be my distant cousin..."

"Ok?"

"Cousin, distant cousin." Aaron immediately changed his words, "Given the relationship between Ancestor Horn and Asgard, it's barely reasonable for me to call you sister."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! How shameless!"

“My face is nothing compared to my girlfriend.

After all, you live in my house, so this small request is not too much to ask!"

“Not too much.” Hela smiled faintly, then changed the subject, “But why should I agree to it?”

"You..." Aaron glared at her fiercely, "There are some things I don't want her to know, but if you don't cooperate, then I have no choice but to let her know."

“Okay! Cousin is fine!” Hela showed a playful smile, “I’ll just go along with this identity.”

Gulu!

Looking at the expression on Hela's face, Aaron's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He felt that Hela would never be content.

The contract has been signed. Although it imposes many restrictions on Hela, she is not afraid of wearing shoes when facing other people, so she doesn't have so many concerns.

"What sin have I committed?" Aaron held his forehead and shook his head. With Hela's presence in the family, apart from daily arrangements, everything else seemed to be restricted.

"What evil have I done!"

At the same time, the thought entity far away in Asgard also expressed the same sentiment.

It seemed that his expectations of Lorelai were a little too high. This maid couldn't even serve tea and water, wash clothes and cook, and she even needed someone to wake her up.

The most outrageous thing is that she seems to have not yet recognized her identity, and occasionally gives him an order or two. She has no experience or awareness at all, which is simply unreasonable.

Lorelai is still far from being a qualified maid, but when she was recruited, no one thought of training her from scratch!

When you calculate it carefully, it includes food, accommodation, training and employment, which is a waste of time and energy, and is far from what he expected.
