(Bing Xue’s POV)

After telling my family about this, they seemed to have found it to be quite a good idea. Not only because we would get to rest and relax in between all the chaos. But because it would also apparently give them a lot of time to train, cultivate, and get used to their abilities and skills.

And I couldn’t agree more with them; they indeed required quite some more time to get that done; a couple of months where they’ll train, rest, then continue tra...

The Essence of the Divine Beast Gods.

Although Bing Xue regrated being unable to revive them as she couldn’t repair their “story”, as she saw the marbles crystalize, she began to rapidly understand how these Gods truly existed.

They were an amalgamation of a Story that was Recoded within the Tower or even their World, and which was carried even after their “deaths” as their purest Essence, the fragments of their Story.

The very core used for the Mechani...

The first thing Paul did after seeing Chris adorable Incubus avatar was hugging him and kissing him. Chris didn’t resist, and the two started making out right there, without realizing Insecta had just arrived and was watching…

“Oh my! Is this the first thing you two do every day? Fufu!” Insecta giggled.

“Eh?!”

“Ah! Insecta?!”

Chris and Paul quickly moved away from each other as they tidied up their clothes. Vlad’s shirt had been unbuttoned...

I slowly opened my eyes again, finding myself resting my head over the Heavenly Empress thighs. It seems I was somewhat asleep, yet not, and the things I saw were sort of a dream, where I could feel I was there, but they were also her memories, how odd.

“You seem to be finally awake; how do you feel, Anna?” The empress looked at me with her golden eyes.

“Um, a bit sleepy now…” I sighed, slowly sitting down and stretching my arms. “But fine… Err, those dre...

Once classes for today were done, Paul and Chris decided to go eat something at the cafeteria. Chris wouldn’t stop yapping about nonsensical things, novels, anime, and the game. But Paul didn’t really mind Chris talking all he wanted; he liked listening to his voice.

“So have you seen any anime lately? This last season has been kind of bad, to be honest,” said Chris.

“Ah, no, not really,” said Paul. “Been too busy in the game for that… I’m surprised h...

I decided to call Peperina, who was luckily living in the pagoda for the moment, as one of my disciples too. I’ve been teaching her how to control her abilities, and we had a couple dates beforehand. I think she likes me too, and I like her as well; she’s adorable.

However, unlike my four other wives, she’s very discreet and wants to take things slowly, one step at a time sort of deal, and I’m fine with waiting as well until she feels ready… The same happens with Y...

Today, a lot happened—perhaps too many things at once. The night had finally fallen, and as I left my Doppelgangers to protect my city and the surrounding area, while I also monitored other areas of the world to see if everything was alright, I had a conversation with my family.

I had kind of already explained them various things already, including the origin of that young man whose power could match mine, if not surpass it. They already knew who h...

And I met them, the children; they looked at me with fear. They thought I was going to beat them like the other thugs…”
