"There's something odd about that..."
Shirou looked doubtful.
Alice and Aisha exchanged a smile, the two red-haired girls having clearly established a very friendly relationship without anyone noticing.
"Next time we meet, please tell me more about your brother, Alice."
As she was leaving, Aisha waved goodbye like this.
"Of course, I'll tell you something even more amazing!"
Alice spoke with great pride.
Before leaving, Lilya specifically sought out Shirou and asked, "Young Master Shirou, what do you think of Aisha?"
"what?"
"I didn't expect Lillia to suddenly come to me," Shirou said, puzzled.
Lilia, however, spoke with a serious expression: "I just wanted to ask Master Shirou, does Aisha meet your current preferences?"
"It doesn't matter what my preferences are, right?"
"No, it's best to take a look first, since there's a targeted training plan."
"???"
Completely baffled by Lillia's meaning, Shirou was puzzled for a long time before finally saying, "She's alright, Aisha is a cute child."
Although his personality is indeed a bit too lively and not quite like Miyu's, Shirou has long since shed the past state of seeing everyone as a substitute for Miyu.
Now he is willing to look at each of his sisters from a more objective perspective.
"Isn't it cute?"
Lilia seemed quite concerned about Shirou's opinion. After gathering information, she earnestly asked, "Young Master Shirou, do you prefer big breasts or small breasts? Aishima is my daughter, and I think her breasts will grow bigger as she grows up, but if she deliberately controls her diet, they can still be somewhat..."
"Lilia, what are you saying?"
Shirou completely lost his composure at this point.
Even if he was completely bewildered, he couldn't possibly miss the other person's implied meaning.
Is this an attempt to mold Aisha into a girl who fits one's own preferences?
But why?
I would never be interested in my own sister, no matter what.
While Shirou was still in a daze, Lillia decisively laid out her true intentions: "Because you and Aisha are not related by blood, right? No blood relation means there is no problem with marriage. Of course, I don't expect you to marry Aisha formally, but it would be enough if she could be my concubine."
"Lilia, stop talking!"
Shirou immediately interrupted.
He had fully realized Lilia's thoughts, but he still had many questions, so he immediately asked, "May I ask Lilia why you did this?"
"Because it was you, Master Shirou, who saved my life. If you hadn't used force to wake up Master Paul, my life and my life would most likely have ended that winter. To repay your kindness, I have always told my life that I must serve you in the future."
"Wait... I see."
Shirou finally realized why Aisha's attitude was so strange.
Compared to her usual younger sister, Aisha always seemed to be closer to her.
It turns out that the root of everything was Lilia's problem.
“I have taught my daughter everything I know. She is still very young now, but in about four years she will have a great figure that men like.”
Lilia spoke quietly.
Shirou quickly interjected, "No, Aisha is my sister..."
"If there's no blood relation, then there's no problem, right? Besides, in the royal palace of the Kingdom of Asura, even if there is a blood relation, it's usually not a big problem."
"..."
Shirou had heard that Lilia had worked in the royal palace of the Kingdom of Asura.
But he never expected the palace to be in such chaos.
Is it possible for close relatives to have sexual relations?
Looking back, Princess Ariel wasn't exactly normal.
While Shirou hesitated, Lilia spoke up on her own: "Young Master Shirou, Aisha is indeed not mature enough yet, but in a few years, I hope to arrange for her to serve you. We are willing to do anything for her; this is what my daughter and I both wish for."
"No, I wouldn't do that to my sister."
“If that is your wish, Master Shirou, then of course there is no problem.”
Lillia has made it clear that she is letting Shirou do whatever he wants, completely leaving him to his own devices.
Seeing this, Shirou knew that he didn't need to persuade anyone.
Just treat Aisha normally afterward.
I suppose that way, their relationship will gradually become normal over time... probably.
Shirou then continued to discuss the situation of the other members of the Grellat family with Lillia, and as expected, he did not get any clues from Lillia.
Lilia simply saw a flash of white light and was then transported here with Aisha.
But in any case, the only family members who are now separated are Rudeus and Senis.
We have taken a big step forward in finding all our family members.
It was only at this moment that Shirou recalled those outside his family, such as the villagers of Bouyena, Hilfi and the father and daughter Roltz...
But Paul has been missing for so many years, and I think it would be very difficult to find him.
Most importantly, Shirou couldn't find the whereabouts of those two people even with his clairvoyance, which undoubtedly suggests that Sylphie and Roltz have most likely been killed.
Thinking of this, Shirou couldn't help but feel a little down, but he still forced himself to plan the route to the Holy Kingdom of Milis for Lilia, and even went to the Adventurers' Guild to find a team of professional adventurers to escort her.
"Well then, it's time to say goodbye, Lilia."
"Yes."
"I've already given you the travel expenses. If it's not enough, go to the Adventurers' Guild and mention my name and Paul's name. You should be able to get some help."
"Ah."
"If you encounter danger on the road, don't panic. Try your best to contact me and Paul. If you encounter trouble in the Kingdom of Wanglong, you can go to a man named Randolph Marian. He should be in the Knights of the Kingdom of Wanglong."
Shirou probably knew that Randolph had joined the Royal Dragon Knights. When they parted, Randolph gave him a token, indicating that they could meet again at any time.
Shirou still doesn't know that Randolph is the Grim Reaper, but he can sense that Randolph is no ordinary person. After all, he is a ruthless person who can cook with dragon meat, so he should be quite reliable.
"Young Master Shirou."
Just as Shirou was thinking this and continuing to make arrangements for Lillia, Lillia suddenly got up and walked towards him.
Before Shirou could react, Lillia pulled him into her arms.
Shirou's body came into close contact with Lillia's voluptuous body, which nearly caused his brain to shut down in shock.
"Li... Lilia?"
"Young Master Shirou is becoming more and more reliable. If I had met you instead of Paul, I might have fallen for you right away."
Lilia said, stroking Shirou's head.
Shirou, on the other hand, lowered his head in embarrassment, unsure of how to respond.
"Aaaaaah!! Mom took my brother away from me! No way, I won't accept this!"
When Aisha saw this, she rushed over to separate the two and insisted that Shirou hug her.
Shirou reluctantly picked up Aisha and found that the little girl was very adept at clinging to him, looking like she didn't want to be separated from him at all.
Looking at Lilya's satisfied smile, Shirou fully realized just how serious Aisha's educational crisis really was.
Given how things are now, it's hard to imagine what kind of state Aisha would become if she were handed over to Lilia for further training.
That younger sister must be a real headache...
Chapter 250 Crossing the Crimson Dragon Mountains? The difference between upper-tier and lower-tier powers!
Inside the inn.
Goodbye, brother! We promised, we'll meet again someday!
Aisha waved from the carriage.
Lilia sat beside her, also casting a concerned glance at Shirou.
Shirou simply watched the mother and daughter leave quietly, then boarded another carriage with Alice and Rigel.
"What a lovely little sister."
Alice sat down next to Shirou and suddenly said in an annoyed tone, "Compared to someone with a terrible personality like me, a sister like that is definitely better."
"Uh……"
Shirou was completely bewildered when Alice suddenly showed jealousy at this moment.
"Pfft, haha, hahaha."
But then Alice laughed as if she had successfully played a prank, and said, "What is that expression? Don't worry, I won't be jealous just because you have a sister. To me, Aisha is practically my sister now too."
"Alice..."
Shirou looked at the other person's expression and shook his head with a wry smile.
He wasn't truly oblivious, so naturally he noticed that Alice was indeed shocked by the arrival of her younger sister, Aisha.
After all, compared to Noren before, Aisha was obviously more obedient and more clingy, and even looked more like a younger sister.
Alice must have suffered some setbacks.
If it were the other party from the Boreas family era, they would probably have had a real conflict like before, causing some headaches for me.
But through this journey, Alice has grown significantly. She has learned how to quickly adjust her mindset, how to control her emotions, and how to get along well with children like Aisha.
Shirou was undoubtedly very happy about the changes that had occurred in Alice, who was like a younger sister to him.
But he also knew that his happiness wouldn't last long.
After all, their journey was about to reach its end.
Once he returns Alice to the Boreas family, he will part ways with her and embark on a new journey to find his lost family.
At that time, it will probably be time to say goodbye.
Although Shirou felt a little reluctant, he controlled his emotions well and did not show it.
At the same time, as the coachman outside the window pulled the reins, their carriage began to move.
……
The carriage moved very quickly.
Shirou and the others left the Kingdom of Shiron not long after.
After traversing war-torn and conflict-ridden areas, they entered a vast plain.
After moving across the plains for several days, they arrived at the next pass, the Crimson Dragon Mountains that encircle the entire Kingdom of Asra.
Similar to the Wanglong Mountains, the Chilong Mountains are also massive and continuous mountain ranges.
It stretches from the southern plains of the Kingdom of Asura all the way to the northern part of the Kingdom of Asura, enclosing the entire territory of the kingdom.
The Red Dragon Mountains are not only geographically challenging, but also inhabited by red dragons.
There are only two places that can be safely passed through—the upper jaw of the Red Dragon in the north of the Kingdom of Asura, and the lower jaw of the Red Dragon in the south of the Kingdom of Asura.
Shirou and his companions were to enter the Kingdom of Asura from the south, and what they had to pass through was the lower jaw of the Red Dragon.
Once they pass through there, they will be able to officially enter the territory of the Kingdom of Asura.
However, to reach the lower jaw of the Crimson Dragon, one needs to travel a long way along the Crimson Dragon Mountains, which is estimated to add at least one or two months to the journey.
Ordinary people wouldn't risk their lives to cross the Chilong Mountains just to shorten their journey.
But Alice has never been a normal person, and she made the above suggestion immediately.
"Why take such a detour? With Shirou and Rigellud here, you should be able to get through a small place like the Red Dragon Mountains!"
