Sitting on the baby stool, Shiro looked at the dinner table with a complicated expression.

Yin was not as bratty as before. Her aura was mature and she seemed to be in a constant state of calmness and brought serenity to her surroundings which was quite a surprise for Shiro.

"Mn? Are you ok darling? You don't seem to be eating your food." The older Shiro asked with concern.

Quickly shaking her head, the younger Shiro started to eat while thinking about what was happening.

'Nimue, Iziuel, Attie, Estrella, are you there?' She called out into her mind only to get no response.

Realising that she's alone in this trial, Shiro couldn't help but furrow her brows.

Looking up, she saw the older Shiro turn on the TV only to furrow her brows.

Curious as to why she had that expression, the younger Shiro also looked towards the TV only to be surprised by the headline.

[EMERGENCY: Demon God Verron invades China, Martial Hero slain. China is now vulnerable.]

"Tch, that's going to be annoying." The older Shiro muttered with a frown before changing the channel.

"Mum! I'm home!" A masculine voice rang out.

"I'm home." Another voice followed up. This time, it was feminine.

"Attie, Lisa, welcome back. Yin's made some breakfast for you." The older Shiro called out with a smile.

Hearing Attie's name, Shiro was rather curious as to what her son looked like in the future. Glancing towards the door, her eyes widened in shock.

'Holy f*ck my son is handsome!' She thought in surprise as she watched the red haired youth step into the room with a charming smile.

"Ah, even Tia is here. Morning little sis." Atesh crouched down with a smile before patting Shiro's head.

'Ah so my third daughter's name is Tia.' Shiro thought to herself while looking towards Lisandra who was behind Atesh.

Compared to the Lisandra she knew in her own time, her daughter in the future seemed rather… quiet. There was a slight air of mystery behind her as she sat down on the table and flipped her hair.

"Lisa, I know you want to look cool in front of Tia but not at the dinner table ok?" The older Shiro sighed as Lisandra blushed in embarrassment before nodding her head.

Chuckling in her mind, Shiro couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at Lisandra's actions of trying to look cool in front of her.

'Thankfully, it seems like everyone's still alive and well.' Shiro nodded with a smile. However, that smile faltered a little when she thought about everyone else including Nimue and Iziuel. But for now, she needed to get a general grasp of the things that were happening around her.

"By the way mum, when I was out, I heard some news about Verron." Atesh said while grabbing a plate for himself.

"Mn, he seems to have invaded China and killed the Martial Hero. Without a hero, they can't get the buff from the domain so defending China is going to be quite hard." The older Shiro replied with a sigh.

"Do you want to go see grandpa so that we can help his sect evacuate?" Atesh asked.

". . . Perhaps. But I think Nan Tian should be able to handle it though." The older Shiro shook her head.

"Are you sure? I mean… I get that he's tier 6 but he's still trying to evacuate while a demon god is on the loose right?" Atesh furrowed his brows.

"Attie, just let mum think about it ok? We have just found out about this right now after all." Yin shook her head with a soft smile.

"Ah sorry." Attie scratched his head apologetically.

Furrowing her brows, Shiro found this situation odd. First of all, there was no way that she would just leave the sect alone since the old man had provided her quite a bit of support. Unless something was happening, she wouldn't let Nan Tian face off against Verron alone. Especially when his guardian was the one that had almost killed her.

"See, talking about depressing topics has made Tia unhappy. Say something nice ok?" Lisa frowned before inching closer to Shiro in order to try appease her.

"You kids finish your meals, I'm going to do some scouting ok?" The older Shiro sighed as she left the dinner table.

"Attie, how many times do I have to tell you not to mention anything or the sort to mum. You know how it is." Yin sighed as she started to feed the younger Shiro some food.

"Sorry, it just slipped my mind ok?" Atesh sighed.

"So have you found a way to establish a domain and anchor yet?" Yin asked as this sent alarm bells through Shiro's mind.

'Wait, I don't have domains or anchors???' She widened her eyes as she knew how important this was to the queens, demons and gods that are participating in the new age. Without this, she was technically not a participant.

"No we haven't. The enemy aren't so kind to just give us the information for free now are they?" Atesh leaned back on his chair.

"Unless we can find a way to help mum establish a domain, she can't fight them. Did you get any word back from aunty?"

"Unfortunately, that's a no as well. Aunty, grandpa and grandma are all trying to make sure that Japan is safe after all. Thankfully, there is not as much priority on Japan as the other places but it's still hard for them to defend. Especially since they don't have a domain." Lisandra shook her head.

"What about everyone else? Lyrica and all that." Yin furrowed her brows.

"They're busy as well. Our main priority is to set up a domain for mum. Unless we can do this, there's nothing else we can do other than run. You know this big sis." Atesh shook his head.

". . .I know. It's just annoying that's all." Yin looked down on the food as she had finished feeding Shiro.

While this was all happening, Shiro finally understood a little of what was going on.

'So in the 'future' I wasn't able to establish an anchor or domain which made it so that the only thing for us to do was run. The other queens aren't exactly cooperative so this is probably something I need to figure out by myself.' Shiro narrowed her eyes while looking around her.

The house was rather simple in terms of decoration. If anything, it almost looked like they had just recently moved in.

'I need to find out about everything that's happened so far and what I can do. Since I'm still just a kid, I can't access my magic yet. I'm about as weak as they come right now.'

Shaking her head, she wanted to try to get off her stool only to realise that she was buckled up.

". . ."

"Mn? Tia, you want to get out?" Yin asked with a soft smile as Shiro nodded.

Undoing the buckle, Yin set Shiro down next to the sofa's before taking all the plates and started to wash up.

"Tia, do you want to watch your show?" Lisandra asked as she crouched down next to Shiro.

Shaking her head, Shiro declined the offer. She had more important tasks than watching a kids show.

Suddenly, Atesh stood up with a frown.

"Atesh." Yin called out with seriousness in her voice.

"But big sis! Th-"

"Atesh. You know mum doesn't want you to fight them." Yin shook her head.

"B-"

"No buts." Yin shook her head adamantly.

Gritting his teeth, Atesh could only sit back down with anger.

Suddenly, mana surged around the house as Shiro could see a barrier being formed just outside of the window.

Blocking a barrage of tier 5 spells, the barrier shimmered slightly but stood strong.

'Seems like I'm not liked in the future.' Shiro thought to herself as she climbed over to the window.

"Ah don't mind them Tia. Let big sis take you back to your room first ok?" Lisandra smiled before looking out of the window with rage in her eyes.

Bringing Shiro up stairs back to her room, Lisandra left with a frown on her face.

Curious as to what was happening, Shiro tried to make her way to the toilet so that she could look out of the window to see what was happening outside.

Trying her best to walk over to the window, she was disgusted at how weak her limbs were as she couldn't walk for a long time without falling back.

Cursing in her mind, she started to climb up to the windowsill.

Peering out of the window, she saw Lisa and Attie with furious expressions on their face while Yin was shaking her head behind them.

Just outside of the barrier, Shiro could see a group of people who aimed tier 5 spells towards the house with hostile expressions.

Before she could keep watching, she felt a pair of arms wrap around her. Glancing behind her, she could see her own serious eyes.

"What did you do to my daughter? You're not her." The older Shiro said with mild killing intent.

'Ah sh*t….'
