After the Lord of th Chapter 99.1

The short-legged cat lay resting on the table, eyes half-closed with a blurry vision.

Suddenly, He seed to sense sothing, His gaze slowly moving to look out the window, and surprisingly saw a snow-white Devon Rex cat!

The Devon Rex was like an elf among cats, with pointed large ears, lively big eyes, a slightly small fra, pure white fur, but with delicate pink skin showing through – even with the slightest movent, an elegant aura overflowed.

The short-legged cat widened His eyes – how could He not recognize that it was His fourteenth brother Lelagin!

“ow! Brother Lelagin found his way here by himself!”

The short-legged cat was overjoyed and rushed over in a few steps, but the Devon Rex opposite seed frightened, shrinking back with a sowhat confused look in its eyes.

The short-legged cat stopped, thinking “what’s wrong with Brother Lelagin?”

At this mont, the sleeping big orange cat raised its head and also happily discovered the Devon Rex on the windowsill, but at the sa ti, He also noticed that Lelagin seed… not to recognize them.

What was going on?

The big orange cat paused, quickly realizing the reason – Lelagin was still experiencing mory loss!

He transmitted this thought to the short-legged cat, and both cats were surprised.

The short-legged cat tilted His head and said, “Brother Lelagin lost his mory, but still knows to co find Father?”

The big orange cat nodded, looking back at their focused Father, also noticing the power of authority emanating from their Father.

The answer was very clear – Father had used Lelagin’s authority, and Lelagin sensed sothing was wrong, so He ca to check the situation.

But how did He know to turn into a cat?

The short-legged cat’s paw poked the big orange cat, “Brother Lelagin’s original form is a cat ow.”

The big orange cat paused, then laughed, rubbing the back of His head saying, “Oh right, how did I forget that.”

In Solomon’s original work it wasn’t a cat, but Father liked to recreate things.

The Devon Rex opposite glanced at them, then fixed its gaze on the black-haired youth, showing a confused expression that everyone could see.

But He deliberately didn’t co in, instead hiding at the edge of the windowsill, just raising His body before shrinking back down, only showing His head, His eyes gleaming in the shadows.

The short-legged cat was a bit worried. “What should we do ow? Tell Fifth Brother and Fourth Brother ow?”

The big orange cat thought for a mont, then called out in the ntal domain.

Beleth: “@Marbas, Fifth Brother, Lelagin has co out, is Fourth Brother still inside?”

Marbas, who was keeping watch and fanning himself by the Erald Lake, was stunned upon hearing this and exclaid in shock. “What did you say? Lelagin ca out?”

Beleth: “Not only did He co out, but He’s just like before, liking to hide in the shadows and stare at Father – it’s definitely Lelagin himself.”

Marbas could hardly believe it – they had called for Lelagin countless tis, but for so unknown reason Lelagin had just co out now.

He imdiately stood up and transmitted a ssage to Samikina inside.

Samikina didn’t respond.

Due to the spatial barrier, Samikina could transmit ssages out, but He couldn’t transmit ssages in.

“This…”

Marbas scratched His face and said, “This is a bit difficult to handle, your Fourth Brother can’t co out for a while.”

Beleth: “It’s fine, I’ll talk to Lelagin first.”

Marbas couldn’t help but ask. “What’s His situation?”

Beleth honestly said, “He seems to have lost His mory – He doesn’t recognize Father, much less recognize us.”

Marbas was even more stunned, “He’s seen Father in person and still hasn’t imdiately recovered His mories?”

Beleth: “Yes, but He seems to understand the situation sohow, turning into a small cat.”

Marbas thought to himself, how is this possible?

Was Lelagin’s mory loss due to Him voluntarily giving up His mories, or was there another reason?

Regardless, the big orange cat thought for a mont and decided He should continue taking action.

He fixed His gaze on Lelagin and walked over in a few steps.

The Devon Rex watched the big orange cat approach, His eyes showing a hint of confusion, especially since the fat cat opposite had called out His na.

The big orange cat stopped two steps away from the Devon Rex and called out loudly, “Lelagin.”

The Devon Rex stared at Him. “…”

The big orange cat enthusiastically closed the distance and continued asking, “What happened to your mories?”

The Devon Rex seed a bit shaken and actually spoke, “-mories?”

He didn’t even know He had lost His mories until the big orange cat said so.

Seeing this, the big orange cat quickly organized His thoughts and explained the situation. “Yes, you lost your mories. You and I are both that person’s children. You were once the Elven Ancestor God, who fell accidentally, your consciousness fell into the abyss, drifting and dispersing, until that person shaped you. After that, you received the na Lelagin.”

When the big orange cat spoke these words, He had the air of a wandering poet demon, perhaps unknowingly activating Word Spirit, making His words extrely persuasive and compelling.

He looked into the Devon Rex’s eyes and said emotionally, “And we, like you, are all children shaped by that person, which makes us your brothers. By the way, you’re ranked fourteenth, the brother ranked right after .”

At this point, the big orange cat turned His head, pointing His paw toward the short-legged cat behind Him, “He is your nineteenth-ranked brother, Celerios. You used to take good care of Him, and He liked to stick close to you. Do you rember?”

“Ce-Cele?”

The Devon Rex suddenly trembled, His eyes seemingly glistening with tears, but He still couldn’t seem to rember. He furrowed His brows, showing a sowhat pained expression.

The short-legged cat walked over worriedly, patting the Devon Rex’s face with His paw, saying softly, “Are you okay Brother Lelagin ow?”

The Devon Rex didn’t resist the short-legged cat’s touch at all.

He lowered His head, seeming to try hard to rember, but couldn’t recall anything.

The big orange cat continued. “That year when Father accidentally fell into the depths of the abyss, we couldn’t find Him no matter how hard we tried, searching for over eight thousand years. One year, you said you had thought of a thod and went to the Elven Ancestor’s place, then never ca out. Your Fourth Brother recently went to find you, but you wouldn’t co out, yet suddenly you appeared before us just now.”

He had almost explained everything.

Even if Lelagin couldn’t rember anything, He now knew what had happened.

The Devon Rex’s eyes wavered, looking up at the big orange cat, His voice trembling, “Bro-brother?”

The big orange cat laughed heartily, His fat face blooming, “That’s right, I’m your Brother Beleth!”

The Devon Rex turned to look at the short-legged cat, staring into those light green eyes, and called out, “Brother Cele.”

“ow~”

The short-legged cat nodded, His eyes revealing a hint of joy.

Brother Lelagin rembered Him now.

Lelagin seed to understand, then His gaze turned toward an enormous cat bed, asking in a confused voice, “Who is that?”

He was asking about Vassago in the cat bed.

Their Third Brother had beco so fat He barely resembled a cat anymore, almost lting into the cat bed.

He had beco a puddle of cat.

The big orange cat shook His head, saying sorrowfully, “That’s our Third Brother, He’s awakening His authority and won’t wake up for a while.”

Lelagin was clearly incredulous, “This-this is actually Third Brother?”

But He looks like He’s about to lt away, is He okay?

Lelagin choked up, wanting to speak but stopping Himself, seemingly afraid that saying so would hurt that big fat cat’s feelings.

The big orange cat patted His shoulder saying, “Haha, don’t look at Third Brother like that, His original form is very cool, and His human form is very handso too, we just don’t know if His human form will also beco fat.”

That would be too terrifying.

Even without any mories, Lelagin knew that was sothing unimaginable.

And looking at Lelagin’s expression, the big orange cat gradually felt relieved – He had worried about how the mory loss would affect Him, but Lelagin was still Lelagin, He just needed to slowly recover His mories.

“Welco ho Lelagin!”

He excitedly hugged the Devon Rex.

The latter seed startled by Him at first, but His eyes quickly cald down, and He nodded saying, “Yes, I’m back.”

The short-legged cat watched, unable to hold back His rolling tears.

And in the next second, the big orange cat grabbed Him and pulled Him into the hug too.

Three brothers reunited, how wonderful!

****

Around six o’clock in the afternoon.

Xiu Si put down the book in his hand, wanting to relax his mind and relieve so fatigue.

At that mont, he inadvertently caught a faint scent of tea.

It was familiar, as if he had slled it sowhere before.

His thoughts stirred, and he couldn’t help but slowly turn his head to look.

Then, the scene before his eyes made his pupils suddenly contract.

He saw on the table, a pink-tinged white kitten struggling to lift a teacup, those big eyes sparkling with innocent light, staring at him intently, and softly owed once, as if saying: “Father, have so tea ow.”

Xiu Si’s pupils trembled – how could he not recognize that this was his Lelagin?

Xiu Si was stunned for a few seconds, followed by an indescribable joy. He had been worried about his fourteenth cub’s safety, but unexpectedly the little one had appeared by himself, and was even so well-behaved as to make tea for Father.

“You’ve co back too, Lelagin.”

Xiu Si’s voice carried emotion as he imdiately took the teacup from His paws, concernedly reminding Him, “The teacup is a bit hot, don’t touch it with your paws, okay?”

“ow~”

The Devon Rex seed unable to speak yet, obediently putting down the teacup and quietly waiting for Father to take a sip, as if only seeing Father’s satisfied expression would put Him at ease.

Xiu Si smiled, drinking the tea, gently asking Him where He had been and why Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother were looking for Him.

However, the Devon Rex seed completely unaware of all this, staring blankly at Xiu Si, His face full of confusion.

Xiu Si sensed that the Devon Rex might have lost His mories, and tenderly stroked the Devon Rex’s fur, asking softly, “Have you lost your mories?”

His poor child, who knows what happened, how did He lose His mories?

The Devon Rex seed to feel very sorry, lowering His head dejectedly, furrowing His brows trying to rember, showing a sowhat pained expression.

Xiu Si quickly consoled Him. “It’s okay, Father will help you slowly recover your mories, you have many brothers and sisters, don’t be afraid.”

He gently picked up the Devon Rex and carefully placed Him on his arm.

The Devon Rex’s small body fit perfectly in the crook of his arm, as if finally finding a warm little nest.

Xiu Si gently stroked the Devon Rex’s fur, feeling the soft texture, his heart welling up with deep affection.

“ow~”

The Devon Rex gently nodded, seeming at ease, slowly moving closer, using His head to softly nuzzle His most beloved person. Then, He quietly lay down, closed His eyes and fell asleep, making soft breathing sounds.

Xiu Si lowered his gaze, his eyes showing so worry, but at least Lelagin had returned.

No matter what had happened, it was good that He had co ho – he would find a way to resolve things.

Seeing this, the big orange cat and short-legged cat behind also breathed sighs of relief, thinking it was good that Lelagin was okay.

Being back by Father’s side should help Him slowly recover His mories.

Just then.

Marbas successfully contacted Samikina.

Marbas hurriedly said, “Fourth Brother, Lelagin ca out by Himself, He’s with Father now.”

“Really?”

Samikina was about to talk about the palace situation, but upon hearing Marbas’s words, He was shocked.

Marbas said truthfully, “It’s true, Lelagin has co ho, so we can withdraw, let’s go Samikina.”

“…Wait.”

After learning the situation, Samikina didn’t leave imdiately, still standing in the great hall, His gaze fixed on the huge floating magic cube above.

“Hmm?”

Marbas was puzzled and asked, “Wait for what? Lelagin isn’t even inside anymore, wasn’t finding Him the reason we ca here?”

Samikina seed lost in thought, staring at the magic cube, and after a long while finally said, “I feel there’s still sothing inside.”

Marbas was shocked – what else could be inside?

But Samikina’s intuition was never wrong, perhaps there really was sothing inside.

“I still need to continue solving the magic cube, wait for

outside a bit longer.”

Samikina spoke very sincerely, and also very stubbornly – until He confird what was inside, He probably wouldn’t co out.

“…Alright, since you put it that way.”

Marbas knew Samikina’s temperant inside and out – when He said sothing, He ant it. If Samikina wouldn’t leave, He certainly couldn’t leave either.

No choice but to risk his life accompanying his lord demon.

“But, how long will it take?”

Marbas was very concerned about the ti issue – heaven knows He had been taken away less than an hour after reuniting with Father. Yet those adorable but annoying younger brothers and sisters could occupy Father for long periods.

This was too unfair to a demon!

“About a month or so.”

Samikina looked at the magic cube, calculating in His mind as He spoke.

That long? Marbas was stunned and asked, “Can’t we just let Lelagin solve it?”

Samikina shook His head, “Do you think He knows how to solve it now?”

Marbas couldn’t believe it, “He’s even forgotten how to open His own door lock? Then did He just use the back door?”

Samikina: “Most likely.”

“Then… should we have Him open the back door?”

“He’s probably forgotten that too.”

The air froze.

Marbas thought this couldn’t be right? Lelagin wasn’t a forgetful brother before, was He?

****

A few minutes later, Marbas got Lelagin’s answer through the cat-headed demon group.

Lelagin really did say He had forgotten.

More precisely, Lelagin hadn’t just forgotten His previous mories – His mory loss was ongoing!

Even if you asked Him about sothing from half an hour ago, He would have basically forgotten it all.

What was going on?

Marbas was dumbfounded and muttered, “Can demons also get dentia?”

Samikina was silent for a few seconds, “Sothing’s not right, He’s more like an elf now. You can feel it too, right? Though we’re demons, we’re also not demons – if we had to say, maybe ‘higher-dinsional beings’ would be more accurate.”

Marbas humd. “I don’t care, I’m just a demon, I’m just the great demon of wealth from ancient Greece.”

Samikina’s head sprouted question marks as He said directly, “Ancient Greece didn’t have such demons.”
