Chapter 309 Cafney

"Speaking of which, if you use the 'Child in a Cup' ritual, but don't add your own genetic material to it..."

Annan suddenly thought of something, and asked, "In that case, the child should be exactly the same as me. After all, in the ceremony, this is the child of the girl holding the cup and me."

"No problem, Annan. I have optimized the ceremony."

Cafney replied softly: "It's not that I didn't do nothing. The child in the cup is indeed you and my child."

"That's it... that's good."

Annan said softly.

He didn't need to sleep, and now he felt a little sleepy.

They were both in pajamas—Caffney in bright yellow plush pajamas with tawny shades, Annan in pale blue silk pajamas as drab as a shirt.

Two people seem to be in different seasons and different latitudes.

Annan was hugging Cafney behind her, like a warm stuffed bear, or a big dog.

The temperature brought by the devil's blood made Kafni extremely warm...just to neutralize the coldness on Annan's body. If Annan was an ordinary person, even if Kafni tried her best to restrain herself, Annan would probably be roasted to the point of dry mouth.

And now, Annan has lost the Heart of Winter.

His blood was no longer so cold.

Not long ago, Annan's blood was like a real frost-scaled dragon. When it dripped on the ground, it could splash cold air and make the windows in the room frost instantly. It is no longer an ordinary human being.

Just touching Annan's exposed skin unpreparedly could cause instant frostbite.

But now...

After replacing the heart, Annan is now roughly in the position of the "heart", and what gushes out and pumps to the whole body is infinite light.

Although the skin is still a little cold, it is already at the level of an ordinary person with a cold body.

Annan was held by Kafni and hidden under her clothes, and the hands that Kafni pressed in front of her lower abdomen had already been warmed to the point of warmth by the temperature of Kafni's body.

And now Annan,

Just maintain this posture and hug Cafney from behind.

He breathed quietly and steadily the fragrance from Kafni's supple black hair, felt the rhythmic ups and downs of Kafni's chest, and felt a kind of tranquility and peace of mind that didn't require thinking about anything.

This made Annan, who had been thinking and working hard since he came to this world, finally be able to stop and enjoy a moment of tranquility.

Just like Cafney's wish in the past.

She knew that she couldn't help Annan in the fields that Annan was good at...but at least she could reduce the troubles Annan encountered in other directions and relieve some unnecessary pressure for Annan.

For example, the handling of government affairs, the maintenance of interpersonal relationships, and before Annan realized his fatigue, let him just think about nothing and hug himself to feel calm.

——When the one you love is a brave man who can save the world.

Even if you can't fight side by side with him, at least you can't let him be distracted by himself and not be able to exert his due strength. On this basis, she also needs to make herself strong enough to allow Annan to fight without worrying about being kidnapped, robbed, or assassinated in the rear.

After doing these things, Cafney realized that she still had more power.

She began to try to share Annan's other pressures.

For Annan, the identity of Grand Duke Winter is actually a kind of pressure—unless he is a fatuous, incompetent and irresponsible person, the higher the position, the greater the pressure and work intensity he will bear. And the people in the highest positions are also under the greatest pressure... because they have no one to rely on.

Not only have to solve all the problems by myself, but also help the people below to deal with all kinds of problems that cannot be completed and sent here.

For mortal rulers, this is a "career" that is enough to spend their entire lives. Beyond that, it's hard to care about anything else and get accomplished.

But those rulers are nothing more than fond of painting, writing poems, and doing some handicrafts.

Annan's "side job" is "salvation" that is more important than the duties of the Grand Duke!

—However, if the identity of Grand Duke is thrown on Dmitri, new problems will also arise.

Because Annan's elder brother simply doesn't have the ability to rule a principality.

"—He is an excellent general, minister, and advisor, but he is not a commander in chief or a monarch. This is why Ivan did not intend to let him inherit the position of Grand Duke from the very beginning. It is because he thinks too much and is afraid There are too many things and too many things to protect.”

This is what Annan talked to Cafney before:

"Dmitri lacks enough courage, but also has an overly strong sense of responsibility... This makes it difficult for him to launch a tentative charge before he has a good chance of winning, and it also makes him unwilling to give up anything he thinks is important.

"This kind of persistence can't be regarded as a bad thing. But the problem is that while he doesn't want to give up, he can't come up with a plan that can make everyone happy. Repairing and maintaining everything.”

Like someone cursed with talent.

Dmitry's problem is precisely because of "lack of talent".

If there was never Ivan, no Maria, no Annan.

Then he wouldn't be so entangled. Because he can be sure that there is no correct solution to the problem he is facing.

However, there are too many people with outstanding talents around him. As the eldest brother and eldest brother, being born in this family where everyone except himself is a genius puts too much pressure on him.

This makes Dmitry frown every day, and often drinks to relieve stress.

If the ten fingers were not using rituals to nourish Dmitri's body, he would have evolved to the point where his stomach hurts every day.

In order to reassure Annan, Kafni has been in contact with all aspects of Lin Dong's information since two months ago.

——The specific source of information was given by Maria.

Originally, she just wanted to make things difficult for Cafney, to give the young queen from a foreign country a bad start... Cafney realized that facing different groups of people and different environments, different measures must be taken. The plan to let her "get rid of Annan" is less taken for granted.

But she didn't expect that Cafney was really studying it seriously.

She flipped through a lot of books to study, kept sending letters to Maria to ask some questions, and wrote more than eight pages of reports every day to try to explain and solve some problems faced by the Duchy of Winter, and sent them to Maria—and this is based on her handling Noah's problems well.

Although she is not as talented as Annan, she is willing to temper herself with the cruelest means to squeeze out the last trace of "talent" essence while she has talent.

This is why Maria suddenly recognized Cafney.

She recognized the girl's hard work and seriousness.

Maria knew that that attachment came from "love".

"Did you know, Annan..."

Kafni turned around lightly, her light body made her slippery like a fish, and the pajamas with her open chest prevented her from turning over without Annan's hand.

She hugged Annan with her backhand and buried her face in Annan's chest.

Use your own face to rest on Annan's chest that is no longer breathing, no longer rising and falling, just flickering brightly and darkly.

"you know……"

She said softly, "What is the meaning of the name Cafney?"

"In Giant's language, it's the feeling of 'fingers through a lover's hair.' They describe that feeling as…."

Annan's "wisdom" element gave him the answer.

As he said in his mouth, the hands that were still hanging in Kafni's clothes went up all the way. In the end, it protruded from Kafni's neckline, brushed the back of her white neck, and her fingers, which were as white as jade, all sank into the jet-black hair.

Annan pinched Kafni's earlobe with his thumb and held Kafni's head in this way.

"—Caffney."

Annan replied.

The corners of Cafney's mouth rose slightly.

Her bright red eyes are as bright as stars.

In other words, it reflected the stars in front of him. The stars outside the window.
