Chapter 574: Nagging doubts about the system.
After comforting his wife for a while, he finally found out that she was not crying because of fright, she was crying because of the horns.
Worry among the family members turned into laughter and they went off to have fun together and celebrate Alix’s big win.
*********
The dreaded day Alix had been afraid of arrived, it was not really day but actually night, and director Ban’s movie was premiering.
After spending half of their holidays behind closed doors, everybody was out now that the sun was shining again. Everybody that could secure a ticket had done so urgently so it was going to be a full house.
Alix was one of those that were going to walk on the red carpet and she was anxious about the horns. She had been staring at herself in the mirror for over thirty minutes while sighing.
She was uncertain if her eyes were deceiving her but the horns looked like they had grown two more inches in the night. The blue smurf was unhelpful as it was still sleeping as if it had been drugged.
When the game mentioned the dragon becoming a part of her body in the real world, this was not what she imagined. Was she actually becoming a real dragon girl? What did that mean for her babies? Would she give birth the way dragons did?
Alix remembered the stupid the question about her babies coming from eggs and she scoffed. It was impossible, she was just overthinking. She started having considerations, like maybe to be safe, she should give birth from here in the hidden city. It was best to take caution in case one of the children came out with a tail or horns.
Caishen found her that way when he stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, dripping little drops of water on the floor of the hotel room where they were staying in the hidden city.
"Are you still moaning about the horns? I told you they are cute."
He stepped up behind her and put his hands around her waist.
"We are not doing it again." she bumped her butt backwards and pushed up against him.
He had spent a big part of the night showing her exactly how much he loved her new look. If he kept it up, the number of babies in her stomach would increase.
Caishen unwrapped his hands and laughed huskily.
"I was just giving you an innocent hug my wife. If you are so worried about the horns, change your outfit. We can go as a cosplaying couple and nobody will say a single thing. It will save you the trouble of having to hide the horns. Moreover, if they are permanent, you can just sell it as your unique thing. Celebrities have unique things like Bo and his sunglasses on the back of his head. You are already the cat lady, just add horns and a staff and you can be dragon-cat lady."
His eyes lit up and he tickled his chin slowly, giving her his I am thinking and i have a bright idea look.
"Wings, you can openly wear your wings out like Maleficent."
Alix frowned and laughed at him. That was not the kind of movie you would catch Caishen watching, even at gun point.
"Maleficent." she repeated after him,
He shrugged. "I have a dragon wife so you best believe i have been watching every movie about dragons, half dragons, elves and other winged creatures and the like i can get my hands on. I even discovered a system host on my own thanks to them."
That piqued her interest and she jumped onto the bed. "Who?" she rolled around once and sat upright.
"It’s...." he stopped himself and threw a look of caution her way. "Is it you asking or the blue smurf? I like this person’s movies and i don’t want you eating them."
She sneered lightly before smacking her lips two times and laughing.
"I am not a cannibal."
"Tell that to your gluttonous system." he responded.
"What if i promise not to eat that individual’s system?"
She held up two fingers, ready to swear an oath if need be.
"Never mind, don’t bother swearing in case that person is from the dark side. It’s director Elli Reeves from America, if you look at the details of the elves in his Lords of the mystique realm series, you will notice the similarities to your blue elf. If i didn’t know better, i would think that he had seen it before. So, i think he is a system host too, maybe he has a film making system. All his movies have been blockbuster hits."
Alix put a hand on her cheek and digested the information slowly. Her husband was good at joining dots, the odds of him being right were high.
"Maybe he is Genesis." she blurted out.
"Then i am glad you did not take any oath." he responded.
He understood the position of his wife all too well and the fight between her and Genesis. It was a fight that was inevitable as two tigers could not occupy the same mountain, one had to be killed. He would much rather his wife do the killing.
"Is your system still sleeping?"
Alix nodded.
"It has not even changed positions since yesterday." She shared.
Some of the doubts she had been having since the night before returned to her mind and she decided to share them with her husband.
"Hubby, something weird happened after my fight with weather boy, i fell asleep. Or should i say that i fell unconscious and i have no memory of being sleepy. The blue smurf claims that i was exhausted after the fight but i don’t think so. Do you ever get that feeling that something happened and you missed it. I have memories from when it questioned Lai Yanfang but none from weather boy, only what the blue smurf told me."
Caishen had long been waiting for the day when the scales would fall from Alix’s eyes and she could see the system for what it was.
"Finally, you are beginning to understand me. Your system is too powerful to be an ordinary gaming system. It can eat other systems to grow, rewrite their programing, and transfer them to new hosts. It can even pinpoint what kind of system another system host has, weaknesses and strengths.
Those are not qualities of a gaming system, i have been compiling a list of possibilities. Maybe it’s a devouring system, a world domination system, a camouflage system or..."
There was a knock on the door and Caishen momentarily posed his suggestions and started walking to the door, still in a towel.
"Come back." Alix stopped him. "Where are you going in that towel? I don’t want others admiring you, you are meant for Alix’s eyes only. I bumped into that female system host that has a harem of men last night. She called you cute, so let’s not tempt fate."
