At that time, Renji thought that the “Ends of the Earth” and “Edge of the World ” mentioned in Lena’s letter were just exaggerations.
No, perhaps at that point in time, Lena really was exaggerating. But when the demon princess, who was offered as a tribute and shouted “Don’t bully a poor girl,” became the greatest special ability user, Renji’s heart trembled.
Perhaps it was like all games, where the characters that appeared later in the game had incredible backgrounds and abilities.
And Miyuki and Lena were Renji’s last two contractors.
They clearly knew more than the three women in the room, and Renji vaguely felt that even he might not have as much information about “this world” as they did.
This might explain why Lena had been secretly helping him all along but still refused to meet him.
Why Miyuki wanted to form the Old Alliance, and why the elves used their own bodies to recreate the source of the disaster in the old era, the Mother of Miasma, the current Lilith.
So Renji didn’t even consider the possibility that Lena would betray him or that Miyuki would do something unfavorable to him.
He was the Ashen Emperor, not some undead king made of bones.
‘What was that saying?… Ah’
‘Everyone will betray you’
‘Except your fictional wives in the game’
“Alright, I trust Lena. No matter what she does, she has her reasons. Instead of discussing it here for half a day, it’s better to go directly to Sin City and ask Lena herself.”
This tense meeting finally ended with Renji’s words.
Even without this level of “betrayal,” Renji’s next stop was the Demon City.
Previously, Suthia, Nova, and the others couldn’t come to the Mechanical Alliance with him because of Zero’s hibernation and the uncontrolled Miasma-infected observation bodies all over the world. Any anomaly could set off a chain reaction like a lit barrel of gunpowder, destroying the world.
However, now that Zero had been re-contracted, all the mechanical servants had been integrated into the same ” World Tree” network, sharing the contracts between 86 and himself. These concerns no longer existed.
In other words, he could now travel freely around the world with his three “Calamity” level wives by his side.
No, that’s not right.
It’s not three wives, that makes it sound like he’s being indulgent.
It should be lover, girlfriend, and wife.
After all, each of them is “unique” to him!
After Renji spoke, everyone nodded. Going to find Lena and confront her directly was indeed the fastest and most efficient way.
And now, with the three of them by his side, Renji had the strength to back himself up.
Even if Lena and Miyuki teamed up, just Nova alone could probably take on both of them, not to mention the support from Suthia and the firepower support from Zero.
For the little nun, even though Renji said he trusted them, she still put Renji first and made all the “battle” preparations.
[Master, do you need me to arrange a flight to Sin City now?] Zero asked quickly.
Renji didn’t rush to answer, first smiling and saying, “From now on, you can just call me Renji.”
For the three women, the change from “Master/Lord Ashen” to “Renji” was a bit hard to adapt to, but not difficult.
If it were before, they would have found it hard to accept, because they only had memories with Emperor Ashen.
But now, they also had many experiences with “Renji.”
“And, we don’t need a flight, after all, with Lena’s calculations, she must have anticipated this step of ours. So, let’s continue with the plan Lena arranged for us and go to Sin City.”
“Sin City is Lena’s territory. We are guests, and Lena has kindly invited us, so we should accept graciously~”
The three women could only understand half of what Renji was saying. What exactly did Lena’s invitation mean? Did Lena arrange the way to the Sin City for them?
At this time, it was Eileen, who had been listening in the room and seemed to have a lower presence than the three women, who suddenly seemed to understand something.
The girl’s eyes first lit up, but she quickly spoke with uncertainty and doubt in her voice, “Doctor, you wouldn’t be referring to…”
“Yes, it’s him.”
…
When Renji returned to the floor rented by Quis Group, he found that in addition to Keyji, many scholars from Sin City had also gathered here.
At this moment, the young man was actually discussing something passionately with Professor Einstein, the leader of the scholar group.
When Keyji saw that Renji had returned, his eyes lit up, and he quickly brought Professor Einstein over to Renji.
“Brother Renji! A major discovery, another major discovery!”
Keyji was excited, and even the elderly scholar, Professor Einstein, showed some excitement on his face. 𝘳𝑎.𝒸ℴ
“Just now, Professor Einstein came to find my sister, and I happened to meet him. After seeing my research on the flickering of Dream City that night, he became very interested and discussed it with me. We didn’t expect that when we started discussing it, we would be surprised!”
Keyji’s whole body was trembling, as if he had discovered some major secret of “ancient learning.”
Because he was about to reveal a “major secret,” Keyji calmed down a bit from his excitement and noticed that in addition to the familiar Eileen and the previous assistant named “86” behind Renji, there were actually three more women…
This “major secret” was fine to tell to their own people, but if outsiders found out…
Seeing Keyji’s hesitation, Renji quickly explained to the young man and Professor Einstein next to him: “They are all my assistants, hired local people during my overseas travels. Now that they heard that I was in trouble in the Mechanical Alliance, they were all worried about me, so they all flew over.”
“Dr. Keyji, Professor Einstein, nice to meet you. I’m Artius, and I met Dr. Renji in the Holy Kingdom.” Suthia was more friendly and nodded to the two people in front of her.
In contrast, Zero’s attitude was slightly cold, but she still said politely, [Nice to meet you]
“…” Nova directly remained silent.
The three women following Renji had each disguised their appearance to a certain extent. This did not mean disguising their clothes, but using their abilities to conceal their aura, making them seem quite ordinary.
Of course, this “ordinary” was relative.
In their opinion, their already “ordinary” appearance and temperament, when placed in front of Keyji, was shocking, giving this young man who thought he had seen countless women a small shock.
….
Seeing Keyji open his mouth as if he wanted to say something, while his gaze wandering back and forth between Renji and the three women, and finally fixed on Renji’s height, he looked at him with an almost worshipful gaze, that kind of look, all men understood, it was just one words – awesome!
Compared to Keji, when Professor Einstein saw Renji’s three female assistants, he was quite calm. He was already old, and he had long passed the age of talking about love and envying other people’s lover.
Moreover, from the time when Renji consulted him about having children, Professor Einstein had more or less guessed it.
Because of this, when he saw the three women and found out that it was indeed the case, Professor Einstein didn’t say much. He just patted Renji’s shoulder meaningfully and gave him a “be moderate” look.
After introducing the three women, this little interlude ended, and Keji quickly came to his senses, excitedly continuing the “major secret” discovery he hadn’t finished telling Renji.
Seeing the young man like this, Renji suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and sure enough, the next moment, it came true.
“Brother Renji, can you believe it? We’ve discovered a commonality, a commonality of miracles!”
“Uh, commonality, what do you mean?”
Professor Einstein took over the conversation and explained excitedly: “A few months ago, my research team observed a ‘rain of light’ in the Holy Kingdom that hadn’t been seen in a hundred years! After sending out my assistants to investigate among the people, many believers in the Goddess regarded it as a miracle, the Goddess’s blessing.”
“Regarding this point, your assistant should also know, right? I see that her clothes look like they are from the Holy Kingdom?” Professor Einstein pushed up his thick glasses and looked toward Suthia.
The nun was calm and composed, smiling slightly, and very seriously answered this older professor: “Yes, Professor, I also think that this is the dew of the Goddess, but my opinion differs from yours. I don’t think it is the ‘Goddess’s blessing’, but rather it should be a symbol of the ‘Goddess’s repentance’.”
