What kind of creature is this?
Is there such an adorable creature in the world?
Lilian's almost frozen mind thought as she looked at the unconscious young man in her arms.
She had fair and tender skin, cute and nimble long eyelashes, cherry-colored lips and small ears. Her messy black hair paired with her gentle and beautiful appearance made it hard for people to tell whether she was a man or a woman. Her soft and supple body made people want to hug her.
Lilian looked at the young man and suddenly felt her mind hazy as if he was tempting her to kiss him. However, the young girl who had just lowered her head suddenly came back to her senses.
"No! How did Luo Ya turn into a child? This is … "
Lilian called out the young man's name as she recalled how abnormal the situation was. She panicked for a moment.
Although his appearance had changed greatly and his age did not match, Lilian was certain that the child in her arms was Luo Ya, Akkat. This was a fact told to her by her almost imperceptible bloodline. However, even so, Lilian was still unable to accept it.
Luo Ya became smaller? How was this possible?
Over the millennia, the extraordinary individuals of Xi Ya had developed thousands of curses. However, no matter if it was the curses themselves or the side effects, very few of them were related to time and space. Lilian had heard that the side effect was aging, but she had never heard of shrinking.
It had to be said that the [Crown Stone]'s situation far exceeded Lilian's imagination. The side effects were also extremely severe.
The black-haired young girl hugged the young man and roughly sensed Luo Ya's condition.
The current Luo Ya had almost no curses on his body. Although the power of his bloodline still existed, it was maintained at an unprecedentedly low activity level. If Lilian's guess was correct, the young man had most likely lost his supernatural powers and returned to his childhood state. It was unknown how long this situation would last.
“.....”
After inspecting the young man's body, Lilian fell silent for a moment. The current situation was undoubtedly severe, but for some reason, she felt that it was more than that.
When Lillian first saw Luo Ya's appearance, she was stunned and couldn't help but want to get close to her. At that time, she thought it was the effect of her bloodline. But when she discovered that Luo Ya's bloodline activity was extremely low, she felt that something was wrong.
It seemed that it wasn't just becoming smaller. In a way, becoming smaller was also becoming younger. Was this really a side effect? There seemed to be something, something even more deadly …
With that thought in mind, Lillian reached out her hand to caress the young man's cheek. But the moment her fingers touched the tender skin, a strange feeling appeared in her heart.
It was a strange temptation, a desire that seemed to originate from human instincts to get close to the young man. Just by touching him, Lillian felt a subtle change in her body, as if she had gained some inexplicable vitality.
The strange feeling caused the black-haired girl to frown and think deeply. After a moment, the princess who thought of something slowly widened her eyes.
"Wait, wait … Could it be that he's leaking time?"
Lillian finally discovered the truth of the matter. Her purple pupils suddenly shrank, and her face visibly paled within a few seconds. Her lips also began to tremble slightly.
Oh no.
A strong sense of danger flashed through Lillian's mind, and it rapidly expanded.
To put it simply, leaking time was actually sharing time with others. Even though Lillian didn't know if this effect was permanent or temporary, there was one thing that was without a doubt: the ability born from this side effect was a disaster.
If there were any abilities in this world that could consign the user to eternal damnation, then the ability to restore one's youth would definitely be at the top of the list.
Even in Xi Ya, where supernatural powers existed, most of the higher-ups and rulers of the races couldn't escape one thing: aging. No matter if it was a proud warrior, a saint who saved the world, a criminal who committed heinous crimes, or a traitor of the race, they were all equal in the face of time.
Millions of years had passed, and the dragons that soared in the sky had vanished. The giants that galloped across the land had also vanished without a trace. Even for these mythical creatures with lifespans of tens of thousands of years, time was an existence that they could only shake their heads and sigh. As for humans, as a species with a short lifespan, their desire for longevity was much stronger than those long-lived races.
And now, a secret treasure that was perfect and far surpassed any ritual or medicine had appeared.
Just by touching it, it could restore one's youth. It was a beautiful young man who had lost all resistance and possessed a strong charm.
When these words were put together, it was basically the greatest temptation in the world. The noblewomen of the Austin Empire would definitely go crazy over this.
In the face of such temptation, all friends could become enemies. The Akat family's bloodline was indeed powerful, but Luo Ya was far from reaching the end. At least for now, he was still unable to protect himself, especially in this young state. If he was caught by someone with ulterior motives and controlled by medicine or curses during the side effect period, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"… Absolutely not! Absolutely not let anyone know about this! "
Lillian's face was pale as she trembled and stroked the young man. She forced herself to calm down.
The first thing she could be sure of was that she couldn't stay in the academy any longer. There were too many people here who knew Luo Ya, and information could be leaked at any time. And if Lillian recalled correctly, Luo Ya had indeed told her that there were more than one evil cult members in the academy.
