Her mother and little sister walked along hand in hand, humming cheerfully.

They were probably satisfied with Li’s gift.

Seeing that scene made Li grin as well.

However Li’s stress relief was not finished yet.

That was right.

Giving a present only to her mother while leaving her father out would be terribly unfair.

Fathers in her previous life had it rough.

Li remembered the complaints her coworkers often made.

“At our house we give presents for Mother’s Day but Father’s Day gets completely ignored.”

“My wife and the kids go out and have fun without me.”

“I’m the only one in the family whose birthday never gets celebrated.”

Li did not want her father to feel that kind of sadness.

She made up her mind.

And then she created it.

A massage chair.

Recently she had been leaving many things to her father, so he was probably tired.

She thought it would be perfect for easing that fatigue.

Suddenly a memory from her previous life crossed Li’s mind.

She had tried a massage chair at an electronics store once.

It felt so good that she had fallen fast asleep despite only sitting in it for a short time.

She could never forget the expression on the store clerk’s face when he woke her up.

He was smiling awkwardly, but there was also something like sympathy in it.

“Mufufufufu.”

Li accidentally let out a strange laugh.

“Li-chan, you’re making a villainous face.”

When they returned to the salon, her father and younger brother were chatting together.

“We have returned.”

Li spoke up.

“Veronica, Li. That magic earlier was…”

Her father had been about to voice a complaint.

After all, that display had been a bit too much.

However, something felt different.

No, he understood what it was.

His beloved Veronica was sparkling.

It was as if she had become younger.

“Slan, what’s wrong with you?”

Her mother spoke casually, but her expression clearly showed absolute confidence.

“Well…”

Her father hesitated.

Her mother leaned closer to tease him.

At that moment a soft fragrance drifted through the air.

The perfume oil Li had made.

“This is the scent of the Luzeria flower…”

Her mother lifted her glossy silver hair with her hand, letting it spread out beautifully like a halo.

“Li-chan made it for me.”

“Veronica…”

The two parents gazed at each other.

It was a lovely moment, but Li did not want her younger siblings to see things go any further.

She deliberately cleared her throat.

“Ahem. I have a gift for you as well, Father.”

“Eh? Huh? O-Okay. What is it?”

Her father looked a little confused, but Li pressed on.

“This!”

Li took the massage chair out of the Jewel Dimensional Vault.

Although calling it a chair might have been inaccurate.

It was something far removed from the concept of a normal chair.

To her father it looked like a giant, blobby slime.

That was right.

Li had done it.

It was something that could almost be described as a pseudo magical creature.

“For now, could you please sit down?”

At Li’s words, her father cautiously lowered himself onto it and gradually put his weight down.

“Li, is this really safe?”

“Of course it is.”

Li nodded.

As he placed more weight on it, his body slowly sank into the chair.

Then it stopped and fit him perfectly.

“Oh… this is extremely comfortable.”

Her father could not help letting out a breath.

However Li’s massage chair was only just getting started.

“Father, could you please send a little mana into it?”

“Hm? Like this?”

When her father sent mana into it, the massage chair-like thing began to move.

Starting from the back of his neck and working down to his shoulders, kneading them.

The motion continued along his spine down toward his lower back.

“Aaaahhhh.”

His shoulders must have been stiff.

His eyes melted instantly.

“Li-chan!”

Her mother called out to Li with sparkling eyes.

She grabbed Li firmly by the shoulders.

“To think you made something this interesting!”

Her mother’s eyes widened dramatically.

“To put it mildly, this is amazing!”

Ah.

Li suddenly realized.

This had struck directly at her mother’s interests.
