Shortly after that, the divine war erupted.
The outcome was entirely predictable.
Almost everyone who fought alongside him in that divine war, except for the traitors, had perished.
And after that battle.
His descendants were essentially buried in the torrents of history.
The once-mighty Violet Family had nearly reached the point of extinction.
Lynn let out a breath.
He gazed complexly at the frightened girl before him.
Before his "death," he had left many contingency plans to ensure his descendants wouldn't face extinction during these thousand years.
The Sword Puppet was just one of them.
But times often don't change as one wishes.
Because the Violet Family was too illustrious.
When the continent underwent upheaval, his family naturally became everyone's thorn in the flesh immediately.
Not to mention those who had betrayed him.
They truly wished to exterminate his entire family.
During those most chaotic hundreds of years after his reincarnation, even self-preservation was an issue, making it impossible to protect his family.
It wasn't until the recent centuries that the continent gradually became peaceful...
"A thousand years..."
He then shook his head, his gaze falling oddly on Vivian before him.
So...
Is this little girl all that remains of his direct bloodline?
Indeed, when things had declined to such an extent, there was no need for others to pay attention anymore!
Lynn looked her up and down.
But no matter how he looked, this girl showed absolutely no trace of his magnificent and divine image!
Look at how mighty your ancestor is!
Lynn felt extremely peculiar.
Then under Vivian's wide-eyed, trembling gaze.
Lynn reached out, with an odd expression, touched her hair bun, pinched her cheeks, opened her little mouth, and checked her teeth.
Vivian stared with bewildered eyes.
What was this guy trying to do?!
Why was he examining her like a laboratory mouse?!!!
Could he be some kind of evil lolicon?!!!
No! This won't do!
I am the descendant of the great Great Lord of Violet, Vivian has dignity!
Lynn oddly examined his great-great-however-many-times granddaughter.
Rolling up her sleeves for a look, checking her bones, looking for cavities, checking if she was nearsighted, seeing if she had bow legs.
So...
Is she really this mediocre...
Vivian stared with wide eyes, scared and sweating, not daring to move, but inside she was both embarrassed and angry.
Until finally.
When Lynn put her down and pulled at her collar, about to curiously peek inside.
Vivian finally couldn't take it anymore.
"Stop right there!! You big pervert!!"
Vivian screamed in shame.
She raised her little hand.
With a loud slap, she gave Lynn a hefty smack across the face.
"..."
"..."
Instant silence fell.
The Sword Puppet, who had just finished rebooting and regained consciousness, witnessed this scene.
Sword Puppet (ΩДΩ): "!!!!"
This is terrible! This is terrible!
That's your ancient ancestor!!!
Is this how you, a descendant, treat your ancestor with a slap across the face?
This is truly asking for ancestral wrath!
Due to the extreme emotional fluctuation, black smoke started rising from the Sword Puppet's head.
Hiccup—
It crashed again.
Vivian stared with wide eyes, cold sweat dripping profusely.
It's over! It's all over!
She just slapped this terrifying being!!!
If she had angered this terrifying existence, surely both she and Grandpa Sword Puppet would be annihilated!!
Why did she have to be so impulsive!
With her size, there wouldn't be anything to see anyway!
But the outburst she had imagined didn't come.
"Not bad, at least in terms of strength, you've truly inherited the excellent genes of the Violet Family!"
Lynn smiled slightly, casually tossing a strawberry into his mouth and chewing heartily.
Vivian was stunned.
No way...
He... he wasn't angry?!
She had just given him a hard slap, if it were any other important figure, that slap would have been enough to kill her dozens of times over!
Could it be...
Is he actually into S&M?!!!
(꒪Д꒪)ノ...
Lynn paced around, smirking as he said: "For the sake of your ancestor the Great Lord of Violet, I'll let you off the hook for now, but remember, don't speak of me to outsiders, otherwise..."
"The consequences would be terrible."
Lynn glanced at her.
He had no intention of revealing his identity yet, as it served no purpose.
He still needed to lay low until the divine beings descended, then eliminate them one by one. Telling her now that he was her ancestor would only bring her various troubles.
It would be better for her to live peacefully instead.
However, Vivian was terrified by that glance.
She swallowed hard and stared, asking, "So... who exactly are you?"
Lynn stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at a forty-five-degree angle toward the sky, smiling faintly: "A nameless person, merely surviving through history, who happened to have some connection with your ancestor, nothing more."
Upon hearing this, Vivian was shocked and said, "With my ancestor? How is that possible! My ancestor has been dead for a thousand years!"
Lynn pulled out a strawberry from his pocket, tossed it into his mouth, and glanced at her with a smile while chewing:
"Indeed, but I never said it was now."
Vivian stared in shock and disbelief at this casual young man, feeling her mind buzzing.
Had dealings with her ancestor, the Great Lord of Violet...
That means this person has lived for at least a thousand years!
An undying fossil pretending to be young!!!
(ΩДΩ)!!!
It took Vivian a long time to digest what he had said.
Such a powerful being surely had no reason to lie to her.
She absolutely believed that he could live for a thousand years.
She stared with big eyes and asked, "Then... can you tell me about my ancestor? What kind of person was my ancestor really..."
Although she was a descendant of the Great Lord of Violet.
She could only learn about this once-great being through some ancient books indirectly.
Lynn paused, then stood with his hands behind his back, gazing thoughtfully at a forty-five-degree angle toward the sky, and smirked:
"The Great Lord of Violet... I can say that among all the people I've known in my life, he was the most handsome, most talented, and most remarkable great figure!"
Lynn paced around, thinking and earnestly saying:
"His character made me bow in admiration, his power left me in awe, the moment I first saw him, I knew this being would become the supreme ruler of this world! He possessed almost every virtue imaginable, his radiance outshone even the sun and moon..."
"But even with countless halos surrounding him, he still maintained a pure heart, that genuine and strong character emanated an irresistible charm wherever he went..."
Then under Vivian's dazed gaze.
Lynn, with his hands behind his back, seriously and earnestly praised the Great Lord of Violet for over ten minutes without stopping.
And none of it was repetitive!
He praised so much that even Nanako couldn't help but blush and lower her head.
So...
This young man before her was actually her ancestor's devoted fan!
Really! Really!
(* ̄︶ ̄)
Don't praise so directly! Even as the ancestor's descendant from hundreds of generations later, it's making me blush!
How embarrassing! How embarrassing!
I should be modest on behalf of my ancestor~~
Vivian waved her little hands like a small snake, (* ̄︶ ̄) saying:
"Stop praising, stop praising, praising so directly would make even my ancestor blush if he were alive, Vivian understands that you're ancestor's little fanboy~~"
