After that, Asher took the opportunity to give each of them a passionate kiss before separating from them. He then looked towards Aria and asked, "So, Mom, are you done with sealing their mories and helping them forget everything that happened to them?"
Asher was referring to the children who had been rescued from the sacrificial ritual perford by Li Clan mbers. Thanks to him, all their physical injuries were healed, blood essence was restored, and souls were nded. However, he wasn't going to leave them without making sure they would be fine.
That's why he asked Aria to use her special technique to help them forget about everything that happened to them, so they wouldn't suffer any psychological trauma.
"Yes. They will wake up soon," Aria nodded as she glanced at the children. "After that, we can arrange a team to take them back to their families. I am sure their parents must be worried sick right now. However, there are so children without any family left."
"You an orphans?"
"Yes. There are about thirty of them. These children have no one to take care of them, and they will most likely end up living on the streets or in orphanages."
"Oh? Thirty?" Asher stroked his chin with a thoughtful expression on his face. Then, after thinking for a mont, he let out a sigh and said, "I guess we don't have any choice but to take them in ourselves. We can't leave them to their own devices. They need a place to live and soone to look after them.
So, why don't we keep them here in the Mystic Starry Realm and train them to be our subordinates in the future? Besides, they can also give company to Lily since she's the only child living here right now. I am sure she would love to play around with children of her age."
Aria smiled at Asher's decision. It was just like he said. They couldn't abandon these children to fend for themselves. So, the best option available to them was to raise them here in the Mystic Starry Realm. And since they would be staying here anyway, it made sense to train them to serve the Blake family in the future. This way, they could serve a purpose and feel useful.
As for Lily, she would get soone to play with, which was also a good thing.
"Indeed. That is a good idea. But are you sure you want all of them to be raised here? You know, so of them are boys."
"Boys?" Asher raised his eyebrows. He hadn't thought about that before. However, now that Aria ntioned it, he realized that it could pose so problems. After all, he didn't want other n living in the Mystic Starry Realm with his won. Even if they were still children, there was no guarantee they wouldn't grow up into horny young n who would lust after his won.
But just as Asher was thinking about it, Aria giggled as if knowing his thoughts and said, "Why don't we send those boys to stay in the orphanage under the Angel's Care foundation? I am sure that orphanage will be a good place since you have already removed the rotten ones from there."
"True. Let's do that then." Asher nodded without hesitation. "I don't want any males other than living here with all of you. This is sothing that won't change, no matter what."
Aria, Olivia, Rias, and Lyssa exchanged looks and smiled at each other. It was as if they had expected Asher to say that. They knew he loved them very much, and he would never allow any man to co near them. That was just how possessive he was when it ca to won he loved.
"Fufu... Then I will have Eleanor send those 10 boys to the orphanage. And I am sure she would love taking care of the remaining 20 girls. With her, they will be given proper education and care. So, there is nothing to worry about." Aria smiled and turned to look at Lyssa before adding. "Right, Lyssa, I am counting on you to take other children to their respective families.
Make sure everything gets done without any issues."
"Sure thing." Lyssa nodded in agreent. Being the Police Chief, she was used to dealing with these types of things. So, it wasn't going to be a problem for her.
As all things were settled, Asher returned his thoughts back to cultivating and improving his strength. So, with a determined expression, he said goodbye to everyone before going back to his cultivation chamber. There he sat down in the lotus position on the ground and closed his eyes.
The next mont, Asher's consciousness started sinking into the depths of his mind. He went through all the things that happened ever since he took on the mission about missing children in the Azure Sky Province. It was like reliving his past experiences.
From the very first mont he arrived at the outskirts of the city, to his encounters with the families of missing children, to his relentless search for clues, getting kidnapped by a mber of the Li Clan, being used in their Sacrificial Ritual, and the fierce battle between Aria and the others against the Li Clan's Ancestor, Asher replayed everything in his mind, down to the smallest details. Your journey continues at mvl
He reviewed every action he had taken during that period and analyzed the outcos of those actions.
And after doing that, Asher started thinking about all the mistakes he made and the ways he could've done things better.
'I got cocky because of the Astral Nexus Core Orb and its abilities, and that was why I got myself trapped in the sacrificial array without any chance to escape. I should have never underestimated my enemies and instead prepared counterasures for every possible scenario.' Asher shook his head as he reprimanded himself.
'My reckless actions have led to near death and put everyone in danger as well. This isn't sothing I can ever let happen again. Henceforth, I must get stronger, much stronger than anyone else. And for that, I know where I need to start. Dual Cultivation! It is the fastest way to increase one's strength without taking years of effort.
I should have started practicing Dual Cultivation a long ti ago.'
