After walking past the crowded hall, he went upstairs to his room.
Arriving at the room, he saw the door was already open.
It was certainly the two of them who had returned, as he had given each of them a room key earlier to avoid having them wait if he returned late.
He opened the door.
"Welcome back, Lord."*2
Before him stood Seraphiel and Abyzarai, who had removed their disguises and were standing respectfully on either side, bowing slightly to greet him.
"Welcome back, both of you."
He replied calmly, as after all, he had gradually grown accustomed to being served by his angels. He entered the room and closed the door.
Seraphiel stepped forward and carefully removed his outer black cloak, while Abyzarai gently took off the mask from his face, revealing his handsome and majestic countenance.
He then stored those two items in his storage space and went to the bed.
Before he could lie down, Seraphiel swiftly knelt on the bed, revealing her fair, slender thighs.
He immediately understood her intention and promptly lay down on her lap.
"Ahh~ truly comfortable."
He gently rubbed his head against her thigh.
Seraphiel's thigh looked firm and full, but surprisingly soft to the touch, more so than any of the inn's pillows.
Seraphiel, seeing his actions, smiled happily, pleased to bring comfort to her Lord.
At his feet, Abyzarai carefully removed his shoes, placed them on the ground, and then lifted his feet onto her lap.
Her hands gently massaged his feet.
Although she had never learned massage, her hands always applied just the right amount of pressure and pressed on the appropriate points.
Seeing Abyzarai massage his feet, Seraphiel also automatically began to massage his shoulders. Being served by his two angels, he felt as if he had wasted over twenty years of his life in vain.
Enough enjoyment; now, to business. Still lying on Seraphiel's lap and being served by the two angels, he asked:
"So, have you gathered those emotions yet?"
Without stopping her actions, Seraphiel replied.
"My Lord, I have gathered quite a few sources of positive energy, but it's not all of it. I believe it will take two more days to absorb all the energy in this village."
Abyzarai also said:
"I have also gathered quite a lot of negative energy, but there's still much left in the village. If you give me two more days, I will absorb it all for you."
"But today, when I went to a church..."
She recounted the strange things she had sensed from the church, as well as the past of the priest, Alias.
"Hmm..."
Ventair pondered. After listening to Abyzarai's account, he thought about the oddities there.
The two angels remained silent, allowing Ventair to think.
After a while, he made a decision.
"Alright, when it gets dark, we will go to that church and see what is hidden behind that statue." "Before that, you two, give me the faith energy you've converted today."
"Yes, my Lord." x2
After his words, the two transferred all the energy they had collected that day to him. Ventair felt two streams of faith power flow into him.
After they had finished transferring, he counted the amount he had obtained. He was surprised by the quantity he had.
If he calculated the basic faith he currently possessed, he now had a total of 100,000 basic faith energy.
With that much energy, he could synthesize it into 1 unit of primordial energy. Enough for him to use for many purposes.
With that joy, he sat up from Seraphiel's lap, then hugged her and kissed her on the cheek.
"Hahahaha, thank you very much, Seraphiel."
"And you too, Abyzarai."
He also hugged and kissed her on the cheek.
"You two have brought me a lot of faith energy."
But the two angels showed no reaction; they were too surprised by Ventair's kiss.
In their minds, they murmured.
'Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me... Lord kissed me...'
He noticed their reaction and realized what he had just done; he suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. He immediately cleared his throat to wake them up.
"Ahem, we should return to my soul space now."
His words roused the two, who were also quite embarrassed by their reactions but quickly regained their composure.
Afterward, all three returned to Ventair's soul space.
When he appeared, Mechaniel and Belloniel bowed to greet him.
"Welcome back, my Lord." x2
He nodded in return.
Then he began to synthesize the 100,000 basic faith energy he had acquired into 1 unit of pure energy.
He closed his eyes and began to guide the streams of faith energy to converge into a small orb, and in a blink of an eye, the 100,000 units were finally synthesized into one unit of primordial energy.
This could only be done within his soul space; if he were to synthesize it outside, the outside world would not be able to withstand its immense power and might cause an unknown event.
Now he had a total of 1.6 primordial energy.
This was enough for him to create 16 more angels.
He decided he would create more angels to increase the number of his current angels for upcoming activities.
He had also decided which angels he would create next: the Space Angel and the Time Angel.
An angel possessing the power of space and an angel possessing the power of time—just hearing about it excited him.
Without further thought, he began to visualize their forms in his mind. He then created two profiles as follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He gave her powerful abilities no less potent than those of the Space Angel.
Once finished, he extended both hands, and from them, two cocoons appeared.
One was black with images of stars and galaxies, looking incredibly splendid.
The other was a golden cocoon with images of working clocks.
The angels standing on either side of him also curiously observed the two cocoons that would birth their new sisters.
Ventair was also excitedly awaiting their appearance.
