But there was no telling what a god was thinking…
Not to mention, Weiss’ smile made it clear that he was reading Lin Fan’s mind and knew what he was thinking. If he kept pushing this matter, then it would be rude towards Weiss.
So Lin Fan just accepted that Weiss was doing this for some reason, regardless of what that reason was.
In fact, it was a reason that he never would have been able to guess.
But of course, Weiss would never say this out loud.
Instead, Weiss just said, “For now, you don’t need to worry about it. I’ll take care of it, so you can just leave it to me.”
Both Lin Fan and Rokuko couldn’t help looking at each other with strange looks.
In the end, it was the dungeon core who said, “Grandpa, you’re the best!”
Weiss chuckled in response and said, “Yes, grandpa is the best.”
The way that he said this, it was almost as if he was enjoying the feeling of being called a grandfather like this. It was completely different from how they thought that he would hate being called this.
The two of them seemed to enjoy each other’s company before Weiss suddenly said, “Since this is our first time meeting, grandpa should give you some kind of present.”
After thinking about it, he said, “Alright, I know what I’ll give you.”
Weiss raised a hand and reached a finger out to tap on the dungeon core.
After he tapped his finger on the dungeon core, there was a light that suddenly appeared around it.
Both Lin Fan and Rokuko couldn’t help feeling a bit worried when they saw this, but they held themselves back since they didn’t think that Weiss would do anything to hurt the dungeon core.
If he really did after summoning them here with the dungeon core, then it wouldn’t make sense at all.
After all, as the creator of the dungeon core system, he should have other ways of doing this without them even finding out. There was no reason to harm the dungeon core in front of them.
The glow remained around the dungeon core for a bit before it suddenly disappeared.
When it did, there was this strange smoke that seemed to be coming from the dungeon core that started to hide it from their view. This smoke continued coming from the dungeon core until it was completely covering the dungeon core, hiding it from sight.
After a while, the smoke cleared and the dungeon core was revealed.
Or at least that was what should have happened.
But the dungeon core was no longer on the table, instead there was a young boy that was sitting there on the table in front of Weiss.
Weiss looked at this young boy and gave a satisfied nod before saying, “There, that should help you in the future. I hope that you like this present.”
Both Lin Fan and Rokuko just looked at the young boy for a bit before recognizing him.
It was the dungeon core.
This was the dungeon core transformed into the form of a young boy.
Lin Fan was able to recognize it since he had the Dungeon Master System and this dungeon core was one of the dungeon cores that was registered to the system, so he recognized it from that.
Rokuko recognized it since they were both dungeon cores, so she could feel the familiar aura that was coming from the dungeon core.
After a moment to gather their thoughts, they realized what Weiss had given to the dungeon core.
It was the Transformation ability that Rokuko had bought before.
That was what allowed the dungeon core to change forms like this.
Though it was very obvious that Weiss had also guided the dungeon core in its transformation just now.
When Rokuko had changed forms, there wasn’t any smoke that had appeared.
After the dungeon core had finished transforming, it looked down at its new body with wide sparkling eyes. Once it had finished sizing up its body, it stood up and started jumping up and down on the table as it said, “This is a human body! I’ve always wondered what it would be like to have one!”
Weiss just watched the dungeon core jumping up and down on his table with a smile on his face, even though there were quite a few precious items that were on the table. These were items that seemed precious and fragile, perfect for someone to break by accident…
Seeing that the dungeon core didn’t seem to plan on stopping, Lin Fan came forward to take the dungeon core in his hand and pulled him off the table before turning to apologize to Weiss.
But when he turned to Weiss, it almost seemed like there was a disappointed look in his eyes…
This was disappointment over the fact that Lin Fan had stopped the dungeon core from playing around.
Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling confused when he saw this expression, but there wasn’t anything that he could say.
The dungeon core looked up at Lin Fan and said, “Papa, hold me higher.”
It seemed that the dungeon core didn’t really think much more about any of this and just wanted to play with this new human body that it received.
Hearing this made Lin Fan reveal a bitter smile before he put the dungeon core down and took out some clothes from his Storage Ring.
He had made sure to keep all kinds of things in his Storage Ring since he had plenty of space to keep stuff in both his Minor World and his Pet Storage Space, so he had put quite a few daily necessities in there. That included clothes for all sizes since he never knew what he would need.
The dungeon core was a bit confused about these clothes, but he still put them on when Rokuko came over to help him.
The three of them acting like this really painted the scene of a beautiful family.
But there was someone who was standing on the side who seemed like he wasn’t a part of this scene which caused disappointment to appear on his face.
Lin Fan was slowly starting to understand what Weiss wanted.
He just wanted the feeling of being a grandfather.
He could feel like a father because of the dungeon cores that were created by the dungeon core system he made. They were like his children since they were all formed from the system he created.
At the same time, they even regarded him as their father since he was the one that created them.
But dungeon cores couldn’t really have children.
They could only summon mobs through the dungeon system which really couldn’t be counted as their children.
This was the one anomaly that happened that created something that was like a child to a dungeon core, so this might be the only chance that he had to be a grandfather.
After this thought passed through his mind, Lin Fan suddenly said, “Since you’ll be staying with us like this from now on, we should think of a name for you.”
Lin Fan turned to Weiss and said, “Father in law, would you like to think of the name?”
Weiss was surprised by how Lin Fan had addressed him before saying, “Father in law, good, very good. This is a new feeling as well.” Then with a chuckle he said, “Alright, I’ll think of a name for my grandchild.”
After a bit of thinking, Weiss suddenly said, “Xiao Bai, let’s name him Xiao Bai.”
The moment that Lin Fan heard this, his lip couldn’t help twitching a bit.
Xiao Bai…this seemed like a name that one would give a little white dog…
He never thought that Weiss’ naming ability would be at this level.
It was just that he had been caught off guard so much that he forgot that Weiss could read his mind.
As soon as he thought this, Weiss said, “Is it really that bad? I just thought that since he has pure white skin, I would call him Xiao Bai since it’s how the cultivation continent does it. Then perhaps I should think of something else.”
Lin Fan’s lips twitched even more when he heard this, but he wasn’t the one that comforted Weiss in the end.
“I like that name! Xiao Bai!”
The dungeon core who was now named Xiao Bai suddenly said this.
Weiss looked down at Xiao Bai and seeing the happy look on his face, Weiss also revealed a happy smile and gave a nod.
It seemed that as long as Xiao Bai was happy, it didn’t matter what kind of name it was.
Xiao Bai then turned to Lin Fan and said, “I’m papa’s child, Lin Xiao Bai.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help shaking his head with a smile.
It seemed that this kid really picked things up fast, as he already learned about surnames and added his surname onto his own name.
Still, there was nothing wrong with it.
Since Weiss had already accepted this and even encouraged it, it wasn’t as if it was a bad thing to keep Xiao Bai as their son since they were technically the reason why he had been born.
Judging by the look on Rokuko’s face, it seemed like she was thinking the same thing.
Though there was one thing that Lin Fan couldn’t help thinking about.
Before he even got a real son with one of the girls, he had obtained this dungeon core son with Rokuko.
One really could never imagine where life would lead.
