81 Chapter 81 Little Dina Loved Daddy The Most

A subtle and almost imperceptible thread…

Connecting Moses and the ordinary people's auras together in this way.

Although there was no sense of threat, being surrounded by a group of unusual auras in this place still brought an uncomfortable feeling.

Moses finished ordering his food and quietly leaned back in his chair.

From the moment that inexplicable aura suddenly entered his sense to now, being surrounded by 11 auras all at once, Moses is sure of one thing.

That is, he can perceive the existence of these auras, but these auras seemed oblivious of him.

'What on earth are these auras...'

Moses had no clue about this.

During his one-month stay in Swardani City, he had only encountered two such auras.

Considering their near-zero threat level, although he had the idea of ​​​​ investigating it, there were more pressing matters at that time, so he didn't pursue it further.

But now, just by taking an airship, he encountered 11 of them at once...

This gives Moses a sense of 'increasing numbers'.

However, he had spent a month in the hotel room, and he had never been to most areas of Swardani City, so it was difficult to make a judgment.

There is one more thing worth noting.

When he encountered the man in the suit at the airport, Biscuit was also there.

But Biscuit did not sense this strange 'kindred spirit' aura from the man in the suit like him.

This is enough to show that it wasn't a matter of being a Nen Users to sense these auras, but was something specific to him.

'Anyway, let's pick a group to observe first.'

Moses contemplated in his mind and decided to focus on observing the family of three.

This was because, compared to the other 9 auras...

This family of three is composed of two unusual auras and one normal person.

Moses believes that the combination of 'unusual' and 'normal' is the most suitable target for observation.

After confirming the observation target, Moses subtly scanned the restaurant.

All the guests and waiters present were ordinary people, who allowed their life energy to naturally dissipate.

After a while, the waiter came to deliver his meal.

While eating, Moses secretly observed the family of three.

They seemed to have almost finished eating and showed signs of preparing to leave.

"Dad, dad, I want to see the stars."

After the little girl had finished eating, she took off her napkin and gently shook the man's arm.

The man raised his hand and touched the little girl's head, smiled and said softly: "Okay, daddy will take Little Dina to see the stars."

"Yeah!"

Little Dina released the man's arm, and waved her hands happily.

Beside them, the woman looked at her husband and daughter with a happy smile on her face.

The man then called the waiter to settle the bill, and then he and the woman led Little Dina toward the restaurant's exit.

Seeing this scene, Moses immediately activated his ability to create a shadow that quietly followed the family of three.

Now, he has the ability to let the split shadow move freely throughout the entire airship, so using it to follow the family of three was no issue at all.

The ability of shared hearing and vision also allows him to observe the process in real time.

This is equivalent to setting up a surveillance camera that followed the family of three everywhere, and he could monitor everything just by staying in his room.

Moses focused on his meal, devouring the dishes on the table quickly. However, he still didn't feel full after finished eating all of the dishes, so he called the waiter and ordered another round of dishes.

The waiter looked at the empty dishes on the table and was surprised, but did not show it on the surface. Instead, he suggested that Moses moved to a nearby table.

Moses accepted the waiter's suggestion and sat at another table, waiting for the new round of meals to be served.

While waiting, through the real-time feed transmitted by his shadow, he could see the family of three wandering in the corridor outside the airship.

Little Dina, held by her father, holding the window lightly with both hands, looking eagerly at the night sky through the glass, trying hard to find the stars.

But no matter where she looked, she couldn't see any stars.

"Dad, I can't find the little star."

Little Dina couldn't hide her disappointment, and she sounded on the verge of tears, as if she would cry in the next second.

The man quickly comforted her: "That's alright, we can just go to another place and find the little stars. We'll definitely find them."

"Um."

Little Dina, with teary eyes, nodded, suppressing her disappointment.

The man gave his wife a helpless smile, and immediately carried Little Dina to the corridor in the other direction. The woman covered her mouth and chuckled, walking side by side with her husband. From time to time, she raised her hand to help Little Dina tidy up her messy hair.

After a round in the outer corridor, they finally satisfied their daughter's wish to see the stars.

"Are you sleepy?"

The man hugged Little Dina with one hand and rubbed her forehead with the other hand.

When Little Dina, who was yawning, heard her father's words, she shook her head stubbornly: "I'm not sleepy. I still want to play more."

"It's very late, it's time to go to bed."

The woman looked at Little Dina, her tone slightly stern.

Little Dina shrank and quickly hugged the man's neck. Her little head rested on his shoulder, not daring to look at the woman.

The man hugged the little girl tightly and said softly: "Little Dina, you must listen to Mommy, okay? Let's go back."

"Um…"

Little Dina mumbled reluctantly.

Under Moses's 'gaze', the family of three returned to their room.

The thumbnail-sized shadow silently passed through the door crack, capturing the situation in the room.

The man went to take a shower, and the woman, sitting on the bed, started telling a story to the tired Little Dina.

After a while…

Little Dina, who was already sleepy, fell into a deep sleep.

The woman covered Little Dina with a blanket gently, then got up and walked towards the bathroom.

While passing by the table, she effortlessly picked up a heavy glass ashtray with her fair and slender fingers.

"Honey, let me help you wash your back."

The woman stood outside the bathroom door and whispered softly.

"Sure."

Amidst the sound of water, the man responded.

The woman opened the bathroom door with a smile and walked in carrying the glass ashtray.

"Dear?"

The man, who is washing his hair, turned his head to see his wife, who wore her usual gentle smile but was currently holding a heavy ashtray, and couldn't help but freeze.

The woman remained silent, maintaining her smiling expression, steadily advancing towards the man.

"Dear, what's…?"

The man's eyes slowly widened, his heart pounding.

Advancing quickly, the woman, holding the ashtray, violently struck it against the man's head.

Bang!

The man let out a miserable cry. Pushing his wife away, he rushed out of the bathroom towards the bed.

He had no idea why his wife suddenly attacked him, and his immediate reaction was to worry about his daughter's safety.

Running to the bedside as quickly as possible, the man couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw his daughter sleeping peacefully.

"Little Dina…"

He couldn't care less about the blood streaming from his head, and immediately picked up his sleeping daughter.

Just as he lifted his daughter, he saw his wife walking out of the bathroom, still holding the bloodstained ashtray.

'What's going on? Why is she doing this?!'

The man's heart raced rapidly.

"Dad, can you accompany Dina to watch the stars tomorrow?"

Suddenly, his daughter's voice sounded in his ears.

The man was shocked. At this moment, his only thought right now is to protect his daughter from harm.

However-

The little girl's hands hugged the man's neck as usual, but with an unnatural force.

"Little Dina?"

The man looked at his daughter in his arms in shock, and could clearly feel the inexplicable strength exerted on his neck.

Unable to understand what was happening, a feeling of suffocation rushed over him...

Little Dina loved daddy the most.

In his mind, his daughter's happy smiling face as she hugged her neck flashed across his mind.

Then, the cold darkness swallowed his consciousness.
