He looked at her seriously—then said it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out, took her hand, and spoke with a hint of grievance in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big Sis... why didn’t you sleep with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory blinked in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory, something’s not right with him.\" Yuel’s voice came through, low and concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory nodded slightly. \"When I found him, he was covered in injuries, and his mental power was collapsing. I used your blossoms to save him... but then we were caught in the snow surge. He hit his head. His mental sea collapsed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be... brain damage?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mother, you’re awake!\" A cheerful voice suddenly rang out—from the top of Paros’s head. \"And Daddy’s awake too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The small, deep-blue fruit bounced twice where it sat, as if it had springs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory’s heart skipped. She instinctively flinched—afraid it might roll right off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paros reached up and gently touched the fruit. \"Be good, Terry. Daddy and big sister are both here with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait... Should \"Daddy\" be calling \"Mother\" his sister?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry had only just developed awareness, but something felt... off. And he couldn’t quite figure out what.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daddy, Terry’s hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Paros took out two Rank Two beast cores and placed them carefully near his horn, allowing Terry to absorb the energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory watched, completely dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She leaned closer to the projection. \"Yuel... is it okay for Terry to absorb beast core energy like that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuel fell silent for a moment, clearly unsure how to process what he was seeing. \"...For now, it doesn’t seem to be a problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He exhaled softly. \"Rory, Paros’s condition seems stable for the moment. Take care of yourself—I’ll be there soon. Vincent and the others are on their way to the Dragon Palace.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So this... was the Dragon Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After ending the call, Rory watched as Terry finished absorbing the two cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tiny fruit gave a satisfied little burp. \"Daddy, Mother, Terry is full!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It bounced happily again on Paros’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory’s heart jumped. \"Terry, don’t jump around!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was genuinely afraid he’d fall off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, Mother!\" Terry didn’t quite understand why, but he knew one thing: had had to listen to Mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big sis, aren’t you going back to sleep?\" Paros looked at Rory, his tail slipping around her waist. \"If you’re not sleepy, let’s take Terry out to play.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory glanced at him, then at the fruit on his head, then at the dragon tail wrapped around her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Alright. Let’s go out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, being alone with him like this felt a little dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, and Paros... don’t call me ’big sister’ anymore.\" She was much younger than him—it felt incredibly strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what should I call you?\" He looked genuinely puzzled. \"Like Terry does? Call you Mother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes. It was definitely brain damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t even had the chance to explain that Terry had mistaken his father, and she was not about to gain another \"son\" on top of that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just call me Rory. Like before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What before?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paros frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t remember.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed her hand again, pouting slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. I want to call you big sister. If you don’t like it... then I’ll call you Mother like Terry does.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory felt her entire world tilting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would’ve thought that the domineering Dragon Lord would turn into this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Just call me big sister then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anything but \"Mother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry’s curious little voice chimed in again. \"Mother, why does Daddy like calling you big sister?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something about it felt wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory drew a long breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This had to be cleared up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Terry... don’t call him Daddy. Paros isn’t your father. Yuel is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big sister, how can you say Terry isn’t my child?\" Paros looked at her, eyes reddening with grievance. \"When I woke up, he was already on my head, calling me Daddy. That means he’s mine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry nodded in agreement. \"Yes, Mother. When I became aware, I was already on Daddy’s head. I am Daddy’s child.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who was Yuel? He never heard of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Terry, listen. You’re a fruit. Paros is a dragon. He can’t be your father. And Paros—you’re a dragon. Dragons lay eggs. You don’t grow fruits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tried—very seriously—to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry tilted slightly, confused. \"What is laying eggs? What is a fruit?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paros shook his head stubbornly. \"I don’t want eggs. I want Terry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me too,\" Terry said happily. \"Terry has a Daddy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...What a touching father-son bond. Rory didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Let’s just go outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they were out, surely the dragon clan elders would explain everything for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Paros’s personal chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space glittered with precious gemstones, embedded everywhere—walls, ceilings, pillars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything shimmered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Rory reached the door, it slid open automatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, Ethan Gabriel and the Third Elder, Sandon, had been waiting for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment they saw Rory standing there, they froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan nearly jumped. \"Rory—how are you here?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And inside the Dragon Lord’s private chamber?! When had their lord abducted her?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory smiled politely. \"Well... I think your Dragon Lord brought me here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She assumed that after she fell asleep, Paros woke up and carried her back to the Dragon Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You think?!\" Ethan’s eyelid twitched violently. Something... very bad had definitely happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately looked inside and saw Paros walking out with a small fruit... hanging from his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan rushed forward, lowering his voice. \"Dragon Lord, why did you bring Rory here? Do Prince Vincent and the others know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he... lose his mind from longing and steal her while Vincent wasn’t around?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And... what is that on your head? This is damaging your dignity as ruler of the three domains! Take it off immediately!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he suggested removing Terry, Paros’s expression changed. He shot him a wary look and immediately stepped back to Rory’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you?\" His tone turned cold. \"Why are you standing so close to me? Do I know you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan arched his brows in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sandon froze at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What... was going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan stared at him in shock. \"Dragon Lord... I’m Ethan Gabriel. You don’t recognize me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paros shook his head. \"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And clearly didn’t want to. He even looked at him like something was wrong with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about him?\" Ethan pointed at Sandon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paros glanced over. Then shook his head again. \"Don’t know him either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan’s voice trembled. \"...When you were little, he used to change your diapers. You really don’t remember?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1107,"2026-06-05T18:17:47.496Z",1,"novelbin.me","0cc31552b05163dee0f2d64953e1a36e0e6d007382d6d47dd6b46ecec99f4e9e","interstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-chapter-218","interstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-chapter-216",315,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finterstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-cover.jpg"]
