Lily rushed over to Aster with Astrid following behind her.
The two of them hurried over to find him sprawled lifelessly across the Queen's giant bed.
His face was shoved into a pillow and Lily could hear him groaning softly into it.
"Ugh…"
"Big brother, what happened to you?" She asked with a worried look on her face.
Aster lifted one finger feebly as he replied. "Ugh… Training… Ripper… MUSCLE… death…"
Lily and Astrid's brows creased in confusion as they wondered what he meant by those words. Meanwhile, Vivian giggled softly as she stepped into the room.
"Your big brother is exhausted dear. He simply needs to rest now."
"Ohh…" Lily nodded in understanding.
"Alright, dear. It's time for you to sleep as well." Vivian kissed Lily's cheeks as she pulled the little girl closer.
"B-but?"
"No buts. If you want to play with Astrid, you'll have to do that in the morning. Okay, dear?"
