Future Beast World: Becoming A Pampered Beauty-Chapter 430 - 369: Divine Sister

...

After that, Minos began to keep a watchful eye even as he fell asleep each night.

He discovered that every time his body was in pain, this mysterious female attendant would secretly help him soothe the turbulent power within him in the middle of the night. Yet, she neither sought any reward nor exhibited any other unusual behavior, making it truly difficult to guess her motives... ’What is she after?’

Minos was also certain that she wasn’t a Fallen Angel, nor was she sent by some other faction to assassinate him.

’There’d be no need to go to all this trouble.’

Perhaps out of curiosity, he kept only her as his personal attendant, finding some random excuse to transfer the other two away.

Sang Luo didn’t know what Minos was thinking, but she was quite happy about it. This way, she no longer had to sneak around and find opportunities to switch shifts just to help him pacify his power. It was much more convenient.

Minos also gradually grew accustomed to Sang Luo’s presence.

Ever since she arrived, he hadn’t had a single nightmare and slept very well every night.

It might have become a habit, but whenever she drew near, the faint scent on her would instinctively make him feel at ease and comfortable.

One day, Sang Luo came over in the morning and saw a box of chocolates on the table. The packaging was exquisite and beautiful, tied with a large ribbon bow. "Hmm, who sent this to the Young Master?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The boy lifted half his head from under the covers and glanced at her awkwardly. "...I don’t know. It’s from those people outside, anyway. I don’t want to eat it."

"Oh? Perhaps they saw that the Young Master’s condition has been improving lately and sent a small gift to show their concern."

Sang Luo didn’t think much of it. Even a thousand years in the past, wearing the guise of a Servant, she was fundamentally used to being direct with Minos. She casually picked up a chocolate and tried it, her dark eyes sparkling. "Mmm! The flavor is so rich. It’s liqueur-filled. Delicious!"

’Made with good ingredients, and the Spiritual Power is quite abundant too.’

The boy blinked. "If you like it, then it’s yours."

"Then thank you, Young Master~"

"...You’re welcome."

Sang Luo was heading out with the box of chocolates when she happened to run into the Angel Leader coming her way.

The Angel Leader was surprised. "So the gift the Young Master asked me to buy was for you."

Sang Luo snapped back to her senses and laughed in surprise. "The Young Master said someone else gave it to him, and he gave it to me because he didn’t want it."

"Hehe, the Young Master was just shy. He probably said that because he was too embarrassed to give it to you himself."

’Sang Luo figured it out. Minos must have noticed her little actions these past few days. Ai, I don’t know if this is the right thing to do... Sometimes, even though I’ve resolved not to interfere with the past, I can’t help but want to help him.’

"You’re quite capable, you know, to have earned the Young Master’s favor. In the past, attendants would be replaced in less than three months. The Young Master has been frail since childhood and has a rather withdrawn personality; he rarely even speaks to others. Yet, he’s willing to keep you by his side alone. You must do a good job. The Holy Hall certainly won’t treat you poorly when the time comes."

Sang Luo nodded repeatedly. "Yes."

She continued to work diligently in the Holy Hall for another half a month. During this time, Minos would often give her small gifts. Of course, he always used the same excuse: he didn’t like them, so he was just passing them on to her. Sang Luo would smile and say thank you every time, which, in turn, made him a little shy.

One day, Minos also found an opportunity to ask the question that had been weighing on his mind.

"Why do you have the aura of the Time Rule on you?"

He had been observing Sang Luo all this time and had confirmed that the Time Rule on her was from the same source as his.

Sang Luo placed the medicinal soup in his hands. "Does the Young Master want to hear the truth or a lie?"

The boy seemed to anticipate something. His fingers tightened slightly as he said firmly, "The truth."

"Well, what if I were to say..." Sang Luo looked at him with a smile. "That I came here for the Young Master."

THUMP THUMP—

Minos’s heart pounded like a drum!

It took him a long moment to come back to his senses. He asked woodenly, "What’s your name?"

"My name is something the Young Master will have a chance to know in the future. For now, you can call me~ the Goddess!"

’Tsk, how cringey, tricking a little kid like this.’

Unexpectedly, the boy nodded seriously. "Okay, Divine Sister."

’His attitude is much more obedient than when we first met.’

A strange emotion welled up in Sang Luo’s heart. ’No wonder Fei Yuan repeatedly reminded me not to get involved with people in this timeline. It’s too easy to develop other emotional ties.’

’This emotional connection should not exist.’

She had already decided that before she left this timeline, she would erase Minos’s memories of her.

’Perhaps I won’t even have to do it myself. Time will correct itself.’

’I’ve already done enough. I can’t interfere any more than this.’

The expression on Sang Luo’s face grew distant.

The boy called out softly, "Divine Sister, are you not feeling well?"

Sang Luo shook her head with a smile. "I am fine. If there is nothing else, the Young Master should rest well. I will take my leave."

Minos didn’t say anything more and let Sang Luo leave to rest. He could faintly sense that she seemed to be intentionally distancing herself from him.

...

A few more days passed, and the Saint Heir Young Master’s condition suddenly worsened.

The witch doctors in the palace were exceptionally busy. Sang Luo knew the real reason: Minos’s Life Soul Bone had finished developing. The power within him would reach its peak, exceeding the limits his body could endure.

Only by surviving this ordeal could he grow into a true Divine Angel.

She couldn’t help him anymore.

She could only stay by his side every day, accompanying him, helping him alleviate the pain with her words and spiritual support.

The boy’s face became even paler and thinner, making him look even weaker than when she had first met him.

"Divine Sister, my illness... it’s never going to get better, is it...?"

"Of course it will."

"I heard the Servants talking behind my back. They all say I won’t live much longer..."

"Young Master, don’t listen to those people gossiping nonsense. Have you forgotten what I said? I came here for you. I can guarantee that the Young Master will live a long and healthy life! A thousand years! No, ten thousand years! Ten thousand upon ten thousand years!"

The boy seemed to have been amused by her. He coughed lightly twice, his spirits lifting a little. "Can you... carry me, and we can go for a walk outside...?"

He murmured softly, "I’ve grown up this much and I’ve never seen what the outside world looks like. I want to see what color the sunlight is, what color the sky is..."

A pang of sorrow welled up in Sang Luo’s heart. She had heard from the other attendants that Minos was born extremely frail and had been bedridden his entire life. Since birth, he had never once left this vast, empty palace.

She looked at the boy’s beautiful, pale-gold hair and his deep blue eyes, and said involuntarily,

"The sunlight is like your hair, and the sky is your eyes."

In that instant, Sang Luo was suddenly struck by a startling thought, and goosebumps erupted all over her skin.

Those words were inexplicably familiar.

She suddenly remembered a dream she’d had long ago. In the dream, she had said those exact words to someone.

’So it wasn’t a coincidence after all...’

’The Power of Time, having gradually merged with my body, had also prophesied this moment.’

’I was destined to come to this time, a thousand years ago.’

After that day, Minos’s mood improved greatly. Though his body was still in pain, his spirits were no longer so dejected and world-weary. This also greatly sped up the witch doctors’ treatment progress. Sang Luo promised that once he was feeling a little better, she would secretly take him out to play.
