Crossover Anime: A Dimensional Journey Starting with Frilian

"What do you want to do?"

Sera frowned, staring at him warily: "Also, you're not allowed to call me by my name."

"That's not important. What I want to know is, how old is Ilya now?"

"How could I possibly tell you!"

"Naris, can you tell me?" Shichen asked the seemingly easy-going Naris.

“Me?” Liz pointed to herself in surprise.

"Yes, please." Shi Chen clasped his hands together and pleaded.

"What should we do, Sera?"

"What do you think?" Sera looked at her expressionlessly.

"Okay...it doesn't seem likely, but this person is very friendly, and he has the same aura as Illya. Could he be the father that Illya keeps talking about?"

This is also why the two of them haven't attacked Shichen.

"How could that be! It just won't work!" Sera said sternly.

"Oh... I'm sorry, I can't answer you."

"Alright then." Shi Chen nodded.

"What exactly are you here for?" Sera asked again.

"Could you go and inform the owner of this place? We'll wait here," Shi Chen asked.

"No, who knows if you'll harm the family head? Leave immediately!"

"Sigh, it seems I have no choice but to say no..."

"Sera, Liss, what are you doing?"

Just as Shichen was about to force his way in, a childlike and lively voice came over.

Shi Chen quickly looked toward the source of the sound and saw a beautiful little girl running over. She was wearing a thick purple and white fleece jacket and a hat, and her long white hair was draped down her back, making her look like a snow fairy.

"Eh?"

The little girl's eyes met Shichen's, and she froze, then a look of joy appeared on her face.

"father!"

Chapter 288 The True Daughter

[Fragment of Godhood Found!]

The "she" in my mind spoke up, giving me a hint.

[Target: Ilya.]

[Task: Spend a year with him, allowing him to experience fatherly love, and you can collect a fragment of divine essence.]

[After completing the quest, you can travel to other worlds to continue searching for divine fragments.]

[Mission Privileges: Immune to magic damage, immune to Noble Phantasm damage, top-tier culinary skills (limited to one year)]

[Once you collect a Divine Shard, you will permanently gain special privileges.]

"Shichen, do you have a daughter?" Frilian asked Ilya calmly, her face expressionless.

"How could that be?" Shi Chen frowned, not speaking to her, but rather responding to "her" suggestion.

This time, "her" hint was a little different; it wasn't about discovering the target of the divine fragment's inhabitant, but rather about the divine fragment itself.

Is it related to Ilya calling him "Dad"?

What's with making Illya experience fatherly love? And why is there a year-long mission period?

He also sensed that something was wrong with Ilya; she was completely different from everyone he had met before. It was as if Ilya's entire body was enveloped in fragments of divine power.

Frilian and the others simply had a familiar aura within them.

"father!"

Ilya, however, ignored everything and ran towards Shichen with her small legs.

"Ilya, no!" Sera stopped her in time.

"Sera, what are you doing?" Ilya stopped and asked.

You must not go near that person.

"He's my dad! Get out of my way!"

"How could he possibly be your father...?"

"He really is my father, there's no mistake!" Ilya gazed at the time, her eyes filled with joy.

“Sera, you see, I told you he was Ilya’s father,” Liss interjected.

“Shut up!” Sera glared at her.

"Oh......"

“Ilya, he is not your father, he is just a stranger.”

"No! There's no mistake, he is my dad, this feeling... Dad!" Ilya shouted excitedly to Shichen.

That adorable, innocent face, brimming with undisguised joy, stirred a fatherly love within me.

"Ilya, come here quickly."

Shichen put Frilian down, squatted down, opened his arms to Ilya, and smiled broadly.

"..." Frillie stood there blankly.

"father!"

Ilya suddenly ducked out from under Sera's arm and charged toward the hour.

"Ilia!"

Sera couldn't stop her in time, and Ilya rushed into Shichen's arms and was held by him.

"It's Daddy's scent~ Daddy, I've finally seen you!" Ilya's little face lit up with a happy smile as she hugged Shichen tightly, snuggling against him.

"Hehe~"

"Ilya, it's a pleasure to meet you." Shi Chen gently put his arm around Ilya; she was so petite, he was afraid of hurting her.

"How touching." Liz stared at the scene, somewhat lost in thought.

"Is he really Ilya's father? So young... but why? It shouldn't be like this." Sera looked at the two of them with an uncertain expression.

She wanted to bring Ilya back because she wasn't sure who Shichen really was.

But this was the first time she had ever seen Ilya with such a happy smile, especially considering how lonely Ilya had always seemed.

“Shichen, didn’t you say you didn’t have a daughter?” Frilian couldn’t help but ask.

"Now we have it." Shichen, holding Ilya, stood up with a smile.

"Could it be because this little girl is so cute?"

"How could that be? But Illya is really cute~"

"Hehe~ Really, Daddy?" Ilya asked happily.

"Of course~" Shi Chen pressed his face against hers, rubbing against her cheek.

It's bouncy and smooth, but it's also icy cold.

"Hehe~" Ilya couldn't help but hug Shichen's neck tightly and laugh sweetly.

"Who...who exactly are you?" Sera walked over, staring at the time, her broom poised to strike.

"As you can see, I am Ilya's father." Shichen emphasized his self-introduction.

"How could that be! Ilya doesn't have a father!"

"Isn't it available now?"

"..."

“Isn’t this great? Ilya is very happy, and this person doesn’t seem like a bad person,” Liss interjected.

"you shut up!"

"Oh......"

"Put Ilya down first, I need to go ask the head of the family."

"No!" Ilya refused.

“Ilya…”

"I want to be with Daddy!" Ilya clung tightly to Shichen, her arms wrapped around him tightly.

"Alright, then I'll bring this man along..."

"What happened?"

A gentle voice came, and with it, a slender and graceful figure appeared.

She looks very much like Sera and Liss, and Ilya also looks like her, or rather, she's like a younger version of her.

She had a face so beautiful and perfectly crafted that it resembled a doll, with ruby-red pupils and long, shimmering silver hair that looked unreal.

"Who are you?" The woman immediately noticed Shi Chen holding Ilya and asked in confusion.

"Mom, it's Dad!" Ilya replied excitedly.

"Huh? Dad?" The woman was taken aback.

"Yes, it's Dad! Dad has finally come to find me!"

"How could this be..." The woman looked at the time with surprise and doubt.

"Hello, I am Shichen, Ilya's father." Shichen smiled slightly at the woman.

"...Come in with me first."
