Chapter 972: Anomaly With Lith’s Birth
After getting out of the soul land, Lilith put out a few strange thoughts to Lith and Lucy.When she was pregnant with Lucy, she could slowly feel life forming as the foetus developed. However, in Lith's case, life was a constant."What does that mean?" Lith and Lucy both didn't understand and asked.They were sitting on the couches in the lounge area and discussing these matters.Lilith had a frown on her face and explained to Lith, "When you were developing, from the initial stages till birth, your soul was a constant. But in Lucy's case, her soul developed along with her body. I can guess that she's a brand new soul, but even if she wasn't, this would've been the normal process."The process of birth was a complicated one. How souls formed was a mystery and not in control of anybody.During the development stages, as the body would form, it would take in the soul from the surroundings. Bits and pieces of the wandering soul would come to it, and in this manner, it would slowly develop.These souls belonged to someone who had died previously and they would thus be reborn. However, they would have no memory of their previous life as they were developing along with the body and in the mix, there would be souls of many different kinds.If this wasn't the case, then the body would develop a soul on its own and grow together with it. This was the purest, untainted form of it. New souls simply came into existence like this and entered the cycle of reincarnation.There was no such thing as samsara in this world or enlightenment stage where a soul would transcend to a higher plane.A soul would continue to reincarnate as long as it hasn't perished and if the person eventually transcends to Godhood or the martial peak, they would become eternal. If not, once their soul perishes, they would have a true death.Every second, many souls perished, and many were born. A balance in the universe was thus maintained.However, of the two cases mentioned, Lith belonged to none, which was what Lilith found strange.As she stated, when Lith was developing, his soul was just there. Neither did it grow nor did it develop along with the body.If there wasn't life that Lilith could detect, she would've thought that the foetus was dead. However, it was there, and it was present from the very start, which was really abnormal.Initially, Lilith thought this might be normal, but after years of research and understanding the complexities of birth, life, and death, she could tell it was anything but normal.

Lith and Lucy found all of the mentioned things too complicated.Lucy might have a deeper understanding in future when she conceives, but Lith had no way of relating or even understanding it properly. He could only just nod and go along with the flow."Anyway, I have to talk with that old thing it seems," said Lilith and rubbed her chin. "Since your soul was from Earth, the only way it came here was due to that spirit's summoning techniques. However, had you come through a normal portal like every other soul and entered me, I would've found it. But, I didn't. There's much deeper mysteries related to it."At this point, Lith smiled wryly and asked, "Mom… is all of this really necessary? Does it matter how I was born? Aren't I standing, healthy and alive in front of you? Does that not matter?"Lilith shook her head. "No, my dear, you have to understand. This is important. It's not a mere coincidence and if there's something that your mama doesn't know of… then that thing is surely a very big and concerning matter."Lucy nodded. "Agreed. If mom doesn't know, then there's definitely something more to it than the eyes can see."Lith sighed and shook his head. "Even if you were to know of it, what would you achieve?"Lilith smiled. "There's a lot to achieve from it. As mama has said, she's very very interested in everything related to her babies. Anyway, haven't you wondered why you don't have a unique ability?""Ah, right!" Lucy clasped her hands. "As far as I know, don't all people from Earth have a unique ability when they reincarnate? Little brother, shouldn't you have one too?"Lith shook his head. "There's none.""See, that's another anomaly," Lilith pointed out. "You should be having a unique ability and the reason you don't have it could mean quite a few things.""Like…?"Lilith took a second to collect her words, then said, "Unique abilities are of many types. From one-time use to generational, and so on. What if you actually had a unique ability, but it was used up somehow? Finding out the use of that ability could answer your birth complications. Anyway, that's just my speculation, things could be much different too."Lucy, raising her eyebrows, said, "Still… to arrive at such a hypothesis when you have nothing to work with or any evidence, it's commendable, mom."Lilith shook her head. "It's quite annoying, if I were to tell you. How come all these years mama didn't find even a hint of a problem? I never knew Lith was reincarnated until now!"Lucy nodded. "Yes, it does seem a bit annoying. Anyway… this explains why little brother was such a pervert from a young age."Lith's face heated up and he coughed to hide his embarrassment. 'Shit, they found out.' Follow current on novel-online.com
Lilith giggled happily. "I'm actually glad to know my baby has fantasized about me since day one."Lucy laughed out loud hearing that. "That's so wrong!"Lith used his right to remain silent and didn't indulge himself in the convo.Lucy then turned to look at him and asked, "Hey, hey, now that we know this… What did you think when you saw me and mom together?""What?" Lith asked, confused.Chuckling, Lucy scooted closer to Lilith and brought her face close to hers."Look… don't we look quite similar? What did you think when you saw me and mom? Did you get confused on who your mother was?"'Ah, the classic twin parent confusion trope…' Lith thought to himself and wrinkled his nose.Lith scratched his face and looking away, said, "I didn't know the language of this world initially and so I couldn't make out what you two were conversing. Anyway, I thought of you as my aunt at first.""Pfft… hahahahaha!" Lucy rolled on Lilith's lap and began laughing hysterically.Lilith covered her mouth and chuckled heartily too, as if she had heard a very funny joke.Lith's embarrassment peaked. All these years of cultivating the dao of shamelessness had been futile! They were not working whatsoever!'My dao heart is not strong yet. It seems I must enter seclusion at once to strengthen it!'Thinking so, Lith's eyes shined like a hungry predator. He turned to look at his mother and sister, then said, "You two… Aren't you having quite the fun in my misery?"Lucy continued to laugh. "Haha, indeed! I have so many more questions to ask—eh?"Lucy felt a strong pull and in no time, found herself staring at the ground below.Lith had teleported close to the two and flipped her like a sack of potatoes on his shoulder.

Holding Lilith's hand and pulling her up, then spinning her in his embrace, Lith said, "You two seemed to have forgotten that I'm not a child anymore. I'm in the same realm as you, dear sister.""Oh my… look at my boy manhandling us poor damsels," Lilith said with a gasp, totally letting herself be at Lith's mercy."Ah, I forgot he ascended! But anyway, I'm more powerful—"Before Lucy could speak further, Lith disappeared from the lounge area and teleported right in the bedroom.He threw the two silverhead damsels on the bed, and the door of the bedroom got shut tight.Soon, a series of loud spanks and moans rang out from the bedroom.Even after a whole day, the sounds showed no signs of stopping.A few maids who passed by the bedroom blushed hard as they heard the voices. There was also a distinct lewd rosy smell permeating in the air, making them clamp her legs and run away from the scene.An announcement was made in the inner ring to not pass by the Prince's hallway until further notice due to this.Time passed.One day… Two day… Three day…A whole month had passed yet there seemed to be no end to the lewd sounds and scent present in the Prince's hallway.The Head Maid Luna herself had come for an inspection but found out her Master was busy doing his things. She quietly took her leave and told everyone to not pass by the hall.Just like that, another month passed…Then another.And then another.After a whole half a year, the bedroom door finally snapped open and Lith walked out, appearing prim and proper, in an elegant three piece suit.Behind him, Lilith and Lucy were sleeping peacefully.An air of authority spread around Lith as he walked in the hallway. 'Hmph, there's still a long way to go to steel my dao heart. It seems I need to pay a visit to another shameless person and get some pointers for further enlightenment.'
