After my vision was washed with a bright flash of white light, I soon came into a dark and enclosed room. In the middle was a large round table, roughly five meters in diameter, with a large chandelier hanging above it, right at its center, showering a dim orange light all over. Around the table, there were already seven figures sitting down. All of their faces were familiar other than the two at the farthest end, a man and a woman, who were more than likely the remaining heads of the ancient families…-

Among the candidates that Zeshion brought up, only two names are familiar. Ying Yue was, of course, Lady Luo's daughter and a proper successor (former) to the Luo family, while Maximillian was the current leader of the Virgil family. "But wouldn't it lower my chances if you added acquaintances to the election?" Max was still good, but Ying Yue would end up splitting the votes from the Luo and Seimei between the two of us. So adding them to the list of candidates should be a bad thing. However,…

The one standing beyond the hidden door was Alpha, making me take a large step back reflexively before placing both hands to protect my jewels. After all, for some reason, she seemed to have a profound hostility toward it. "What? Want me to truly crush your balls or something?" Irritated by my sudden defensive pose, she crossed her arms before her nonexistent chest and frowned. "..." Oops, her frown deepened! I forgot the fact that she could read my thoughts! "Come on, Alpha. We have something to…

Dinner ended on a positive note, though I was still wondering if sipping viscous porridge counts as dinner or a snack. Anyway, right after we finished eating, the girls took me out for a walk. I was expecting them to carry me like when they brought me out, but Ember took out what looked like a wheelchair out of nowhere. Using that, the girls had an easier time pushing me around and taking me to places. "Right, Goddess Blanc passed this note to us. You wrote it yourself before passing out, right after…

334 Recovery First Soon enough, the door leading to the room burst open, revealing an army of beautiful girls with their expressions covered in a mix of worry and joy. "Master!" Although it was Ember who called my name first, the one who reached my side the fastest was none other than Fang. Her head was buried deep into my chest, hugging me tightly. "Leader, leader, leader..." She kept on repeatedly calling me, her tone slightly nasal, as if about to cry. I was slightly taken aback but…

333 Waking Up When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a blurred ceiling. Wait, it wasn't the ceiling that was blurred, but rather my vision. I tried to move my arm to rub my eyes but found it hard to do. "S-Sir Will...?!" A familiar voice echoed, making me turn to my side, finding a blurry figure of a brown girl. "... Mi...va..." I tried to call her name, but my mouth was extremely dry. It was as if I just got out of a desert; my throat parched and my tongue was stiff as hell.…

332 Sleeping Beauty The warriors who fought and bested Noir finally managed to recover. Vermeil and Ajax, after the first 24 hours, were already recovered and went to provide backup for the border defense. After all, even though Noir was dead, the demons were still attacking them incessantly. Zeshion was the same, in that as soon as he recovered enough to return to battle, he immediately headed for the parts that needed support and literally swept the battlefield. Zeta, who fainted after…

331 Brink of Death Once More Will's body doesn't look that battered. At first glance, you might even think he was simply tired and asleep. However, when Blanc saw his internal organs, she thought it was a miracle he was even alive. "All his energy vessels, nerves, and organs are damaged! For this, normal healing wouldn't be enough!" Alpha, who was right beside Blanc, also frowned. When she looked at Will's body, her eyes sparkled like stars, unfocused as if gazing at far-off scenery. But a…

Noir, hearing the one-sided declaration of his death, became fuming with anger. "RAAAAAGH!" He roared, his voice echoing loudly in the void of space. Blanc's barriers started to shake, cracking from the intensity of it alone. "What power!" She exclaimed as she added more layers of protection, just in case. After all, she was currently protecting everyone else, as nobody was able to erect barriers as strong as hers among the others. Zeshion, who was left alone in the air, quickly landed and approached…

Igni had only used this skill with no name once. She didn't have any idea about how she actually activated it, so she has been unable to reproduce the same skill ever since. So, I have no choice but to analyze her memory from the moment we were fighting the Demon Shark. While praying that Zeshion lasted a bit longer against Noir, I closed my eyes and delved into my own mind, analyzing the memory I copied from Igni from several angles, multiple times a second. The moment she activated it, her body became…
