Chapter 177 The Life We Dreamed Of
Seraphina's eyes widened as she took in the sight of the Outer God's corpse. Her fingers brushed over the cool glass, and though the sight was vile, her expression softened, an intense, satisfied glimmer in her gaze.
She looked up at him, her pink eyes sparkling with appreciation.
"You did what I couldn't," she whispered, her voice laced with gratitude and pride. "Thank you... my love."
A warm, radiant smile spread across her face, and in that moment, her joy manifested in the world around them.
The flowers on the nearby trees burst into full bloom, their petals vivid and lush, as if celebrating with her. The gentle fragrance of blossoms filled the air, swirling around them in waves of floral sweetness.
Linsley couldn't help but smile as he watched the transformation. Her happiness was infectious, and the beauty of the field mirrored the sense of peace he felt in his own heart.
He drew her close, his voice a soft murmur. "The death of the Outer God is just the beginning for us," he said. "With you by my side, Seraphina, every day will blossom as beautifully as this."
In response, Seraphina's arms tightened around him, her face lighting up with a radiant smile as the floral scent around them seemed to swell, almost as if nature itself were celebrating their reunion.
"I had a feeling you'd be back soon," she said, her voice warm and tender. "As soon as I heard your Voice of The World, I knew I had to prepare something special for us. So... I made breakfast."
She tucked the glass globe into her hand, gazing down at the Outer God's remains with a mix of satisfaction and almost playful curiosity, as if she held an unexpected treasure.
Hand in hand, they made their way inside, where the breakfast she had prepared awaited them.
Seraphina looked up, her bright pink eyes meeting his, a serene smile lighting up her face.
"I love you, Linsley," she murmured softly, her voice filled with warmth and certainty. "No battles, no enemies—just us and this life we've made together."
Linsley's gaze softened as he took her hand in his. "And I love you, Seraphina. You're my heart, my home. Every moment from here on is for us, and I wouldn't have it any other way."
Her fingers tightened around his, a soft blush blooming on her cheeks as she whispered, "With you, I feel complete. Everything we went through... it's all worth it because it brought us here."
They lingered for a few more moments, savoring each other's presence before finishing the last bites of their meal.
Rising from their seats, they moved in quiet harmony, gathering up dishes and tidying the table, each motion easy and familiar.
Linsley carried the plates to the sink, handing them to Seraphina, who turned on the water, her hands moving gracefully as she washed. He joined her, taking the washed dishes and drying them, their hands brushing now and then in a silent, tender exchange.
They worked side by side, the sounds of running water and clinking dishes filling the cozy kitchen. There was a simple joy in the shared routine, each task made lighter by the presence of the other. Stay tuned to empire
Every so often, Linsley would pause to glance at her, a quiet smile playing on his lips, while she would look up, catching his gaze with a sparkle in her eyes.
When the last dish was dried and the sink was cleared, Seraphina let out a soft, contented sigh. "I never thought washing dishes could be... enjoyable," she murmured, a playful smile tugging at her lips.
Linsley chuckled, setting the towel aside. "It's not the chore, it's the company," he replied, reaching out to tuck a loose strand of her pink hair behind her ear.
As the morning sunlight filled the room, they stood together in the heart of their home, the echoes of laughter and love settling around them like a promise.
