Since awakening the Su Wife Ability, Su Qi had never directly fought against a beast.
But through many subtle aspects, he had gradually understood some of its wonders.
For example, wearing women’s clothing boosted his stats to ridiculous levels, or his natural affinity with gentle-natured spirit beasts.
It wasn’t until now, seeing this letter left by his mother, that he finally understood why the Su Wife Ability was so special.
It turned out he had been strengthened by the fruit of the World Tree.
The fruit of the World Tree?
Confronted with this exaggeratedly special term, Su Qi first searched his memory. Soon, he clearly recalled a clue.
When he was a child, still a boy, like most boys his age, he was obsessed with One Piece.
He loved the joy of exploring a vast world, the funny and interesting stories, and the amazing magical powers brought by the various Devil Fruits.
One day, when his elder sister was at cram school, his father brought him a magical fruit.
“Xiao Qi, this is a Devil Fruit. Eat it, and you’ll have a super powerful ability too.”
The fruit was entirely emerald green, looking juicy and magical just by sight.
Hearing his father’s temptation of “superpowers,” the easily fooled little boy Su Qi couldn’t resist.
He remembered clearly that the fruit was extremely sour.
But for the sake of superpowers and his father’s coaxing, he forced himself to eat all of it.
After eating it, since he didn’t awaken any superpower, he sulked at his father for a while.
It took a KKC feast to end their cold war.
Back then, Su Qi thought it was just a trivial episode.
But now, after reading this letter, he found that—Emmmm—in a sense, his father hadn’t lied.
His superpower was indeed super powerful. But what made Su Qi want to cry was that, judging by the current situation, the World Tree fruit, like Devil Fruits, had two sides.
However, unlike Devil Fruits that couldn’t touch water, his World Tree fruit apparently couldn’t be defeated.
If he was defeated, he would become a plush ball, truly “eaten” by the Demon King!
Realizing this, Su Qi, who had played many erotic games—perhaps because the Succubus Mark on his body was expanding, or because the Treasure Space had infected him with some of the Dragon Clan’s nature—couldn’t help but picture several defeat CGs in his mind.
There were sticky watermelon bellies, “Ah ba ah ba” mindless slack-jawed faces, and even hanging play as the Demon King’s “clothes.”
As these images formed, Su Qi first shivered involuntarily.
But soon, to avoid these plays happening, Su Qi, who still had a boy’s heart, forced himself to calm down and analyze the current situation.
There was still some time until the Demon King’s revival recorded by his father on the stone tablet. Although time was tight, nothing was set in stone yet.
His parents wouldn’t harm him.
So maybe everything pointed to one possibility: the Demon King’s revival could be solved.
And the solution was probably related to him. But what could he do? And what should he do?
“Xixi~”
Amidst Su Qi’s thoughts, a slightly tired voice sounded at his feet.
He looked down and saw Su Xixi, the fluffy little guy.
The fluffy Su Xixi was blinking her violet glass-like eyes, looking at his chest with hope, a cute rabbit mouth secreting touching droplets.
Actually, to be precise, Su Xixi wasn’t that hungry.
After the girls’ meeting last night, Su Lulu had fed her a lot of snacks from the refrigerator.
Although the food was much better than what Su Xixi had in the Saint Ruins, as the saying goes, it’s easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but hard to go the other way.
Compared to Su Qi’s handmade bento, or the more nutritious and delicious Su Qi bento, filling foods felt far inferior? Now, Su Xixi’s little mouth had unknowingly been spoiled by Su Qi.
Gently cradling the greedy little guy, looking at her snow-white fur and feeling how much weight she had gained over the past month, Su Qi suddenly realized some things.
Unknowingly, Su Xixi and the big guy Purple Spirit Snake had evolved several times because of his bento. Besides that, the girls who always cuddled with him had also improved.
Take Elder Sister Wen Yin, for example. Just now, cuddling with her, Su Qi noticed that her tail drawn by succubus aura had grown longer than before.
And Senior Sister Lin Xue, the Blood Princess, her Blood Princess wings had stretched larger than before.
Clarifying these two situations, Su Qi realized what he could do.
Although his Su Wife Ability wasn’t particularly strong, he could perhaps make others stronger through bento.
Thinking about the Golden Dragon’s dying words and his encounter with Little Red Pupil, which seemed to involve his parents’ intervention, if Su Xixi and the big guy could evolve, then Little Red Pupil, as a Dragon, should also be able to evolve.
Realizing this, a faint blush crossed Su Qi’s fair face.
‘From now on, to deal with the Demon King later, I need to feed Little Red Pupil well to increase her strength.’
And to make Little Red Pupil grow faster, compared to his handmade Su Wife bento, the ‘Su Qi bento’ was obviously better.
But as soon as this thought occurred, Su Qi realized another problem. ‘
Emmmm—unlike Su Xixi, this little bunny has a small appetite. Little Red Pupil eats a lot. If I feed Little Red Pupil Su Qi bento every day, wouldn’t I drain myself empty?’
So what should he do?
“Xiao Qi, did you think of something? Your face is a little red. Did you catch a cold last night?”
While Su Qi was pondering, Gu Wen Yin, sitting beside him, noticed his flushed cheeks.
Subconsciously, she took out a handkerchief with an orchid scent and gently wiped his face.
Feeling Elder Sister Wen Yin approach, her refreshing orchid fragrance and soft body, Su Qi was very comfortable.
While enjoying it, due to the height difference, he turned his head casually and saw a deep, pure white cleavage.
Seeing that whiteness, Su Qi’s peach-like eyes glittered.
Yesterday, when secretly cuddling with Senior Sister Lin Xue and the Black-hearted Loli, he had tasted the Su Wife bento of the two beauties after they consumed ‘his bento.’
Although Su Qi had never tried his own bento, in all fairness, the taste and nutrition of both girls’ bento exceeded his expectations.
What surprised him even more was that their bento had different flavors.
An Xiaoling’s was citrus, Senior Sister Lin’s was mellow coffee. Realizing this, a bold guess formed in Su Qi’s mind.
‘If Little Red Pupil eats me directly, it will make me too weak. It’s better to let the beauties eat me first—after all, eating my bento strengthens their attributes and abilities—and then let them feed Little Red Pupil. No matter how you think about it, Little Red Pupil is their daughter too. The girls shouldn’t refuse.’
After thinking of this method to strengthen Little Red Pupil, Su Qi sighed inwardly at his own cleverness. But soon, he realized a drawback.
‘Emmmm… isn’t this too lewd? Wuwu… would the girls really agree? And how should I even bring it up? No matter how I put it, after I make this suggestion, I’ll be labeled something weird. What if the girls misunderstand me as a pervert?’
And while Su Qi, holding Su Xixi, was frowning in distress, early in the morning, at a remote ‘Su Ji Stall’ near Lingwu University City in Lin City, a long queue had already formed.
“Sss~ Our president told us to come eat Su Ji bento. What kind of new order is this?”
“Is this bento that good? I just came to scout for tonight’s bento purchase. Why am I now inexplicably standing in line?”
“I heard the boss lady of Su Ji is super pretty. I came to catch a glimpse of her beauty.”
“Wait, am I the only one who finds this weird? It’s only 8 AM, and there are 30 people in line. If it’s nighttime, wouldn’t it be 1,000 people? How delicious can this bento be?!!!”
