Transmigrated As An Extra In The Novel I Love And Hate

As the banquet progressed , Adrian unknowingly fell asleep in his mother's arms due to exhaustion of the day.

(Adrian's POV)

I slowly stirred awake, feeling the soft embrace of the soft bed surrounding me. The dim morning light seeped into the room, casting a warm golden glow over everything. My crimson-gold eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the familiar surroundings—only to immediately freeze at what I saw.

Beside me, three baby princesses were curled up, sleeping peacefully.

Liliana, the Princess of the Demon Empire, lay to my left, her tiny hands resting against my arm. Her little crimson horns barely peeked through her fluffy black hair, her peaceful face looking like that of an angel—ironic, considering she was a demon princess.

Celeste, the Princess of the Human Empire, was to my right, her delicate golden hair fanning out around her. Her small lips were slightly parted as she breathed softly, her tiny fingers clutching a piece of my clothing like a lifeline.

And then, the most unexpected yet predictable sight—Evelyn, the Princess of the Elf Empire, had practically wrapped herself around me like a koala, clinging to me with her little arms. Her soft silver-blue hair tickled my cheek as she nuzzled closer, her face serene and content.

Looking at their peaceful, adorable sleeping faces, I felt an involuntary smile tug at my lips.

'...How the hell did this happen?'

I didn't move, careful not to wake them up. The warmth of their little bodies, the rhythmic sound of their soft breathing—it was oddly calming. A warmth spread through my chest, a kind of peace I had never felt before in my past life.

Suddenly, the voice of my System rang in my head.

[ Good morning, Host. You seem to be having a very eventful morning. ]

I mentally sighed. 'Good morning, System. Care to explain why I woke up surrounded by princesses?'

[ Oh? You tell me. I'm just the observer, you know.All I know is that after the banquet ended, the three princesses refused to leave your side and were eventually allowed to sleep here. Congratulations, Host—you've officially become a baby magnet. ]

I rolled my eyes. 'Thanks, I guess?'

[ You should be proud. Not every baby in the world gets to be cuddled by three princesses at the same time. You're setting records before you can even walk , that's something to be proud of right. ]

I exhaled lightly, shaking my head at the absurdity of my situation. I mean, it was cute, sure, but at the same time—how did things escalate this much?

Just then, movement.

I felt a tiny stir against my side. Slowly, Liliana's long eyelashes fluttered as she woke up. Her crimson eyes blinked open groggily, still adjusting to the light.

The moment she saw me, her eyes brightened instantly.

A beautiful smile stretched across her tiny lips, and before I could even react, she threw her tiny arms around me, hugging me like a teddy bear.

"Ah!" She babbled happily, nuzzling into me.

I froze for a second, caught off guard. But then, an unexpected warmth spread through me again. It was strange, this feeling—something I had never experienced in my past life.

It was… nice.

Before I could process it, I felt more movement.

Celeste stirred, her golden eyes blinking open. She yawned cutely before noticing me, and just like Liliana, her face lit up with happiness.

A second later, I was double-hugged.

And then—

Evelyn's silver-blue eyes snapped open. The moment they landed on me, she let out an excited giggle and tightened her grip around me, burying her face into my chest like I was the softest thing in the world.

At this point, I was completely trapped.

I mentally sighed, but my heart… felt full. There was something about this—this innocent pure affection, this warmth—that struck a chord within me.

I had been living a cold and lonely life for a long time before I got transmigrated. With No real attachments,and no real family that truly cared for me for a long time . But now?

Here, in this new life, I was… wanted.

And I liked it.

The System, however, was not done yet.

[ Ahem. Now that you're enjoying this adorable moment, I should inform you—two new Hidden Quests have been unlocked. ]

I raised an eyebrow. '...Hidden Quests?'

[ Hidden Quest #1: Make Liliana, the Princess of the Demon Empire, develop affection for you.

Hidden Quest #2: Make Celeste, the Princess of the Human Empire, develop affection for you. ]

I almost choked.

'...What?'

[ I mean, considering how things are going, it's already halfway there. You're basically already their crush. ]

I exhaled, my mind blank for a moment. What kind of nonsense was this?

'...I'm literally a baby.'

[ Exactly. A baby magnet, to be precise. ]

I groaned at the system's comment, but looking at the three princesses who were happily hugging me, a soft smile still remained on my lips.

Whatever this was, whatever fate had in store for me…

"For the first time in both lives ,I felt a strange warmness, it was not familial warmth but something different", I thought to myself

(Author's Note: I feel like many readers should have noticed by now but to inform those who have not understood, As Adrian has the mind of an adult it feels weird for him to see baby princesses clinging to him and that's the reason he is groaning and a bit helpless despite it being his plan to steal then from the protagnaist in this life.This thing will not happen once they are older as it would not be weird anymore.

Also big thanks to all of you for your love and support.
