You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

A small purple hole appeared out of nowhere, and Celine poked her head out from it, asking curiously, "Mommy Cecilia, what's wrong with calling Celine?" Celine was telling her sisters a story, so she didn't respond to Mommy Cecilia's call immediately.

Cecilia reached out and ruffled Sirin's hair, explaining gently, "It's nothing, just arranging Sirin's school."

"Mommy Cecilia, will Celine and her sisters be able to go to school soon?"

"Yes, after the wedding next week, little Sirin can go to school."

"Huh? A wedding?"

A deep sense of confusion crossed Cecilia's innocent face. "Mommy Cecilia, what is a 'wedding'?"

"Um……"

Cecilia pondered for a few seconds, then came up with an explanation that Celine would find easiest to understand: "'The wedding' is the process of Celine having a younger sister."

"Hey? Yay! Sirin's going to have a little sister!"

Xilin shouted excitedly, then shrank back into the purple void, seemingly preparing to share the news with her "friends".

Upon seeing this, Cecilia couldn't help but chuckle.

"Maria, isn't Celine adorable?"

"...Yes. She's Cecilia's approved child, so of course I can't hate her."

Even if she doesn't say it, Maria will cherish girls like Celine, just as she cherishes Angelia.

After all, in terms of seniority, Maria and Angelia could be considered the "aunts" of girls like Celine.

Since she is the "little aunt" of the five girls, she will naturally fulfill the responsibilities of a "little aunt" and take good care of the five girls.

True.

Maria and Angelia are not yet adults, but that does not stop them from caring for the five girls.

Chapter 58 Cecilia: "What does it feel like to give birth?"

Perhaps due to the long journey, or perhaps due to playing for too long, Sirin, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina all fell into a deep sleep, while only Bella and Angelia were still not sleepy.

At this moment, Bella displayed excellent maid etiquette, patiently caring for the sleeping Sirin, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina.

Then, with the help of Sofia, Alexandra, and Cecilia, Sirin, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina were moved to the bedroom to prevent the chatter from disturbing the four girls' rest.

It's worth mentioning that Angelia always wears a magical gown, and even when she can unleash her full power in her normal state, she is unwilling to take it off.

Girls' dreams are often simple and unpretentious, nothing more than dreamy fairy tales or beautiful clothes.

Today, "magical girl" undoubtedly fulfills all of Angelia's "dreams," whether it's a fantastical "fairytale" or beautiful "clothes," "magical girl" has it all.

Angelia grasped the black bow and arrow, sometimes examining it, sometimes stroking it, her pupils reflecting the bow and arrow's shape.

True.

This bow and arrow doesn't look like what a magical girl should have, but without a doubt, it is a genuine magical girl's weapon.

“Angelia, you don’t need to crave power so much. With Cecilia and me here, no one in the family would dare to harm you.”

“Sister Maria, of course I know about this, but... I want to share some of the burden with you.”

Angelia gently stroked the bow and arrow, her brows brimming with anticipation for the future.

After becoming a magical girl, her future is destined to be completely different from the past.

It might be a beautiful future filled with dreams, or it might be a future filled with darkness and despair...

Regardless of the final outcome, Angelia will never regret her choice.

“Sister Cecilia is an S-rank Valkyrie, while I am now an A-rank Valkyrie. Protecting you is more than enough for me, and I don’t need you to share any of our burdens.”

Even if I can't help you and Cecilia share the burden, I hope I can fight alongside you in crucial moments.

Hearing this, Maria knew she could no longer persuade Angelia, so she could only sigh and say nothing more.

At this moment, Cecilia was arm in arm with Sofia and Alexandra, carefully inquiring about various things that needed to be considered for the "wedding".

Sofia and Alexandra, having been married before, naturally knew more than Chubi and Cecilia, who were getting married for the first time.

Sofia and Alexandra answered Cecilia's questions without reservation.

The two women knew that the main focus of the wedding was Qiu Bi and Cecilia's wedding, and that they had no part in it, so they didn't throw a tantrum.

Sofia and Alexandra both have a daughter and are widowed, and they know that they are not suitable to marry Qiu Bi. Only Qiu Bi and Cecilia are the most suitable marriage candidates.

Sofia and Alexandra are already quite content as long as they can maintain their current relationship.

Alexandra stared blankly at Qiu Bi, seemingly lost in thought.

Of the three women—Sofia, Alexandra, and Cecilia—Sofia has already developed a close relationship with Qiu Bi, and Cecilia is about to marry him. Only Alexandra's relationship with Qiu Bi is merely verbal...

With Sofia in front and Cecilia behind, Alexandra was under immense pressure.

perhaps……

I should take some action...

Alexandra was so lost in thought that she didn't hear Cecilia calling out.

It wasn't until Cecilia gently shook her arm that she snapped out of her daze and back to reality.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Alexandra, what does it feel like to give birth?"

Cecilia asked curiously.

Alexandra paused for a moment, then explained with a lack of confidence, "Cecilia, you are an S-rank Valkyrie, so childbirth shouldn't be too painful for you. Besides, you're not married yet, so there's no need to think about things that far ahead."

“It shouldn’t be too long, right?” Cecilia pondered for a few seconds, then continued, “Qiu Bi and I are getting married next week, and we can start preparing for having a baby soon.”

"So fast?"

"Yes, with you and Sophia here, I shouldn't have anything to worry about."

"That's true..."

Alexandra nodded, seemingly agreeing with Cecilia's statement.

Although Bronya was already showing signs of being a "mischievous child," Alexandra was more than capable of taking care of the newborn.

As for Bronya's "bratty" temperament...

You can rest assured that this is in the hands of Sirin and Qiu Bi; they will definitely adjust Bronya's personality to be obedient and cute.

knock knock!

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Bella, who was sitting next to Qiu Bi and the others, immediately stood up and walked quickly to the door.

"Bella, are Chubi and Lady Cecilia home?"

"Yes, how can I help you?"

"Let's go shopping together! We have nothing at home, not even toothpaste or a toothbrush."

Shigure Kira flashed a bright smile and waved to Qiu Bi and Cecilia, who were peeking into the entrance hall.

"Going out shopping?"

Qiu Bi and Cecilia exchanged glances, then looked at Sofia and Alexandra, seemingly seeking their opinions.

Sofia hesitated for a few seconds, then said softly, "I won't go; the children are still sleeping."

"Actually, I can take care of Celine and the others."

Bella spoke softly, revealing her other identity—a qualified "maid".

Sofia shook her head and smiled gently, "No need. Alexandra and I will stay home to take care of the children. You two go shopping."

As they spoke, Sofia grasped Alexandra's hand and gestured to her with her eyes.

Upon meeting Sophia's gaze, Alexandra understood immediately and smiled gently in return: "Bella, why don't you go shopping with Qiu Bi and Cecilia? You're still a child, it's not a bad thing for you to act spoiled sometimes."

Sofia and Alexandra's idea was simple: since Chubi and Cecilia were about to get married, it was necessary to create opportunities for the two of them to be alone, so that their relationship could be rekindled.

Bella glanced at Qiu Bi without making a sound, then nodded hesitantly.

This is a rare opportunity to spend time together. Not only can he get close to Qiu Bi as a "child," but he also doesn't have to worry about Xilin being jealous.

"Sophia, Alexandra, are you really not going shopping?"

Cecilia looked at the two women, her eyebrows furrowing slightly. She vaguely sensed that the two women seemed to be plotting something, but she had no evidence.

Sofia and Alexandra smiled silently, gently nudging Cecilia and Qiu Bi, signaling them to go out shopping as soon as possible.

The two no longer refused and left the house hand in hand, followed by Maria, Angela, and Bella.

Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Diamond Ring

Since the main residents of Academy City are students, most of the facilities here are designed for students, and even shopping malls offer discounts to students.

However, given the assets of Shigure Kira, Maria, and Cecilia, they don't need to care about these small discounts.

Apart from Sofia and Alexandra, Patrick, Salome, and Shub also did not come shopping.

The former, entrusted by Cecilia, is preparing teaching materials for Celine, Bella, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina, while the latter two are either surfing the internet or exercising.

Seemingly influenced by Alexandra's words, Bella became unusually bold and asked in a barely audible voice to ride on Qiu Bi's back. Although it wasn't a coquettish request, her blushing cheeks created a shy feeling.

Qiu Bi naturally wouldn't refuse Bella's request. He immediately picked Bella up, let her sit astride his shoulders, and held Bella's waist with his left hand.

Perhaps it was because Qiu Bi's left hand was supporting her waist, or perhaps she was not used to such intimate gestures, but Bella's face became even redder, her eyes were unfocused, and her attention was entirely concentrated on the warm feeling coming from her waist.

Moreover, as the four of them walked, Bella could clearly feel her legs rubbing against Qiu Bi's neck and cheeks, and she couldn't help but squeeze her legs together.

"Bella, don't be too nervous, I won't let you fall."

Qiu Bi didn't think much of it, assuming it was just Bella experiencing this feeling for the first time and was overly nervous.

Upon hearing Qiu Bi's voice, Bella quickly made a soft "hmm" sound, then relaxed her leg muscles and lowered her head shyly, not daring to casually look around like Xilin.

Cecilia took Qiu Bi's arm and looked at Bella's shy appearance with a thoughtful expression.

"Lady Cecilia, there's a dessert shop over there!"

Shiyu Qiluo walked ahead of the two, giving them some space to be alone while still being able to call out to them at any time.
