A strange force passed over his head.

Behind him there was a continuous thumping sound of flesh hitting the ground.

Zheniya, who was holding her nose and her eyes full of tears, subconsciously turned her head and saw the marines who had been chasing them just fell to the ground and fainted.

This feeling is...

Overlord color?

Zenia looked up in surprise.

He met a handsome and elegant face with a smile.

This person just seemed to say...Long time no see...

The eyes that trembled unconsciously were filled with the figure of the man in front of her.

A torrent of brightly colored memories flashed through my mind like a dam bursting.

The shrapnel left by the old injury buzzed in her head, instantly giving Zheniya a splitting headache.

Riley immediately noticed something was wrong. He hugged the soft body in his arms tightly, and easily caught the children one by one with his other hand and placed them on the ground.

Baby-5 and Nami were put on the ground in confusion. When they turned around, they saw a strange man half-kneeling on the masonry ground with Zenia/mother in his arms.

The man had a nervous look on his face, and his eager voice was low and soft, as if he was holding something fragile in his arms, and his words and deeds were all cautious.

Naturally, Nami also saw her mother's brows furrowed in pain and the fine cold sweat on her smooth forehead.

Thinking that the marines who had just chased them had fired, they instantly became nervous.

Nami rushed forward: "Mom, are you injured? Injury, where is the injury..."

Little Nami, who had rarely seen any big scenes, pursed her lips as she spoke, biting her lower lip tightly, looking nervous and worried to the point of crying.

She frantically groped around Zenia's body with her little hands, and her little body was filled with uncontrollable tremors of panic.

Suddenly, her little hand was held tightly by a big hand.

That big hand is so warm, so warm that people can't help but feel the ripples of safety in their hearts.

Nami subconsciously raised her head and met a pair of complex eyes full of warm emotions.

The man with gray hair but not an old look on his face had a smile on his lips and comforted Nami with a gentle voice: "She's fine, don't worry!"

There's really nothing to worry about.

After experiencing the initial severe pain, Yaya leaned on the man's shoulder and quickly settled down.

At this moment, Nami was following the two adults step by step, and behind them was Baby-5 who looked distracted.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

A mellow, deep, soft and laughing voice came from above.

Zheniya raised her head slightly and looked into the softly curved eyes under the lenses.

The last bit of warm orange light in the sky completely disappeared under the horizon. As night fell, the cold full moon hung high in the sky, and the silvery moonlight fell, rendering the night white with silvery gray.

Yaya could clearly see the man's appearance.

He has silver-white semi-long curly hair, a slightly elegant and handsome face, a strange comb-shaped beard, and a domineering straight scar on his right eye.

He looked at her with focused and gentle eyes, the arms holding her were solid and steady, and his steps were unhurried and unhurried, full of the composure that belonged to this man.

A sense of security from the soul filled the whole body, and the body that was tense due to pain slowly relaxed.

Yaya's trembling eyelashes were slightly lowered, and instead of answering the man's question, she asked in confusion: "Have we met somewhere?"

Those fleeting memories passed too quickly and seemed like bubbles. They shattered just as she was about to reach out and touch them.

There was a voice in her heart telling her that she should know him.

——It’s still the kind of understanding that the relationship is so close that one can depend on it for one’s life.

Rayleigh looked slightly stunned, then chuckled: "Don't think too much, you need to have a good rest now."

His eyes flickered over his young wife's pale face. Reilly raised his head and moved forward steadily: "I will tell you what happened between us after you have rested."

He lowered his head and looked at her again. The man's eyebrows were curved and he smiled lightly, but his eyes flashed with complex emotions that Zheniya didn't understand: "Go to sleep for a while! I will protect you."

I will protect you...

A simple promise made Zheniya feel unspeakably distressed.

His fingers subconsciously grasped the hem of his chest, but his heart that should have been beating steadily felt a sharp pain.

Why...she felt like the man in front of her...was blaming himself?

Yaya looked at the man blankly, confused and blurted out subconsciously: "Why should you blame yourself?"

Reach out and gently trace the man's eyebrows.

Confusion flowed in her red eyes, and Yaya's voice was very soft, with almost ethereal doubts: "Did you do something wrong? Why do you blame yourself?"

Lei Li was stunned for a moment, and after realizing that even if he didn't remember anything, Yaya was still the Yaya who would notice his subtle changes in emotions, his gentle smile was tinged with helplessness.

He paused slightly, hugging the little woman in his arms with one arm, and his free hand wrapped around the little hand that gently scratched his cheek.

Hold the small hand with the big hand, put it to the lips and kiss gently.

Zheniya was stunned for a moment, and the confusion in her eyes gradually dissipated. Then she heard the man say with a low voice and a low smile, "I won't lose you again this time!"

There was a dark sharpness in his gentle eyes that even Zhenia had not seen, and he thought: No one can take you away from me again.

Even if I die, I will go to hell with you!

Zenia:? ? ?

what?

Seeing her doubts and thinking of the fact that she had lost her memory, Rayleigh chuckled, and under Yaya's increasingly confused expression, he placed another kiss on her palm.

He said: "Thank you for coming back!"

Thank you for coming back to my world, Zenia!

After finding a hotel with people at random and paying the rent under the slightly wary gaze of the boss, Reilly turned around and walked upstairs with the sleeping man in his arms.

Little Nami and Baby-5 followed him quietly.

After pushing open the door and walking into the room, he gently placed the person in his arms on the bed and covered him with a quilt. Then he turned to look at the two girls behind him.

The girl with a yellow bow on her head rubbed her belly, and could faintly hear the gurgling sound of her belly.

Baby-5 complained feebly: "So hungry~."

Obviously, the Don Quixote family's cadres have a free-spirited attitude towards their children, so as soon as they get hungry, Baby-5 directly proposes the idea of ​​ordering food downstairs.

Riley nodded and gave her some Baileys with a smile: "Then please bring some food up."

Baby-5's entire little face turned red as she was needed, and her emotions started to surge: "You, do you need me?"

Lei Li paused, then said with a kind smile: "Sorry to trouble you, little girl!"

Baby-5 nodded fiercely, turned around and ran away impatiently.

The door was closed with a bang, and you could clearly hear the thump of footsteps on the floor, and the girl couldn't wait to shout with an unpleasant temperament: "Hey boss, I want food, lots and lots of food, here." Let me hurry up!"

Reilly: ...I always feel that this little girl is a bit...

Nami, who was left behind by the little sister, hesitated for a while, but still didn't catch up.

While she was staring at the door in a daze, a big hand gently rubbed the top of her hair.

Nami was stunned, turned around, and heard the man looking at her with a smile and asking softly: "Your name is Nami...isn't it?"

Youjia glanced at Leiley, who had a cautious attitude. After thinking about it, she flapped her wings and flew to the bedside to stand still, silently guarding Yaya until she woke up.

Nami blinked her innocent eyes. Because she was not familiar with Rayleigh, her attitude was inevitably a little cautious: "Yeah!"

Rayleigh looked carefully at the little guy in front of him.

Orange hair, beautiful and delicate appearance.

Except for the hair color, the little guy's exquisiteness has a hint of Yaya.

Both Mondstadt and Yujia had revealed the little one's appearance to him in advance, and due to the nature of father and daughter, Rayleigh recognized her almost at a glance.

Is this...his daughter?

Although Mond had told him beforehand that he and this little guy were not related by blood, Yaya was very sure that this was her daughter...

Mond, who was responsible for delivering the message, was confused, but Reilly guessed what was going on.

There are too many magical things in this world, and Yaya's existence itself is beyond the comprehension of mortals.

Although their daughter was not successfully born, she returned to them in another form.

that's enough.

No matter who she is, as long as she is alive, that is enough.

A fatherly smile of love hung on his face, and feeling the softness of his hands, Rayleigh smiled: "First meeting, Nami!"

No matter what you have experienced, whether it is happiness or hardship, I will protect you with Yaya in the days to come.

Nami looked at Rayleigh with confusion, confusion flashing in her eyes.

She always felt that the uncle in front of her... knew her.

She nervously grasped the hem of her skirt and responded politely: "Chu, first time we meet, you..."

The little feet curled up unconsciously, and the little face was full of innocence and asked seriously: "Well, um, what should I call you?"

Lei Li had a smile on his face, moved his lips, and finally relaxed, smiling confidently: "I'm dad."

When the girl suddenly raised her head with an incredulous expression on her face, Rayleigh continued to smile and said, "Sorry, I'm a little late. So Nami, would you like to go home with me, an incompetent father?"
