Boom—!
The formless bolt of lightning struck, leaving the pink-haired beauty thunderstruck.
She never imagined that her best, best, best friend Mobius, the cutest little snake in the Elysian Realm, would team up with an outsider to persecute her.
And right in front of her, no less.
Her blue-pink eyes filled with disbelief, and as she looked up, their wills met in an instant.
Fifty thousand years of rapport allowed them to decipher the deep meaning in each other's gazes.
'Mobius, why are you doing this to me?'
'Who asked you not only to not help me, but to stand there and watch the show!'
'I was powerless too! Look at my short stature, I can't even climb onto your bed!'
'Doing it or not is a matter of attitude; being able to or not is a matter of ability. You didn't make a move, which proves your attitude isn't right. You never even thought about saving me.'
'...'
Elysia was speechless. She had to admit that Mobius had a point.
In this situation, she really was only thinking of self-preservation, with no intention of giving Mobius a hand.
After all, given their current states, no matter who was in Mobius's position, the outcome would be the same.
She's going to get pregnant!
But!
Simply giving up like this and watching Mobius create trouble for her was not Elysia's style.
If Mobius didn't want her little dress, then she would just have to give her a special gift!
With this in mind, Elysia stopped pretending to be a poor, weak, and helpless little girl.
She picked up her little dress, stood up, walked over to the young Brian, and tugged on his pant leg. "Big Brother, do you want to be Xilian's daddy?"
Brian squatted down, automatically getting into character. "That's right. Is that okay with Xilian?"
The one-sided information advantage made him feel like he was toying with a monkey.
"Xilian... doesn't know."
Innocence and cuteness coexisted on the girl's face. "You have to ask Xilian's mommy about this. Xilian can't answer Big Brother."
"But..."
Her soft voice trailed off. Elysia glanced at Mobius, leaned close to Brian's ear, and conspired with him in a loud whisper.
"Xilian's mommy said that Auntie Mobius has a very good impression of you, and she wants you to seize this opportunity."
"..."
Mobius's expression changed drastically. She finally realized who the more dangerous woman was.
Elysia was only a potential danger for the future, but she herself was in very immediate danger right now.
Once this man brought out the Inner World Protagonist's traditional 'skills', she, the mistress of the Elysian Realm, would be flipped over and over again like a steak and ravaged countless times!
"You! You little thing, what nonsense are you spouting!"
She scolded loudly, her expression becoming incredibly colorful.
And just then...
"Doctor, three minutes are up. Have you considered how you're going to answer me?"
The black-haired youth, without waiting for a reply, sat down on the slightly damp bed.
One of his arms wrapped around the mature woman's curvaceous waist. To Mobius, the expression on his face was like that of a villain incarnate.
She wanted to struggle, but his hand seemed to possess a unique magic that made it impossible to resist, making her reluctant to part with it.
"You..."
Her already weak voice now carried a hint of charm.
That alluring appearance, even from the perspective of a third party like Elysia, was enough to make her, a fellow woman, a little smitten.
'Mobius right now... is so beautiful.'
The pure and innocent little girl's eyes widened. She felt that the current Mobius was full of tension, utterly irresistible.
If she were a boy, she probably wouldn't have been able to contain her vigorous energy and would have pounced on Mobius to get things started!
And judging by the actions of this Inner World Protagonist, he clearly wasn't using any strange abilities like before, just lightly touching Mobius's waist.
Such a reaction all but confirmed an iron-clad fact for Elysia...
'This big snake is as stubborn as ever ♪'
'She clearly likes this handsome boy a lot, but her strong pride won't let her admit it, even using the need for research as an excuse to get close to him.'
'As expected, this beautiful girl was never wrong, just like I wasn't wrong about the little couple, Kevin and Mei, back then.'
'Spring is here, and it's time for our little snake to lay some eggs.'
The pink-haired beauty remained silent, observing everything like a real child, absorbing the nutrients this world provided her.
Being teased by the man beside her, being watched by the detestable Elysia...
Mobius, her breathing growing more and more rapid, felt like she was caught in a Pincer attack by girls, unable to stop the thrill of being watched by a third party.
"If you're going to do it, just get it over with!"
Die with your tits up, or live forever!
Mobius had thrown caution to the wind, wanting only a swift end.
Her green eyes were filled with the aura of spring.
...
"My, my, it seems our two beautiful girls are quite satisfied with my arrangements."
Putting down her binoculars to avoid seeing anything potentially unsuitable for children, the great Herrscher of Corruption once again applauded her own cleverness.
"Without me, Mobius would never have realized her true feelings; without my help, Elysia would never have found such a good husband and father."
The relationships were a bit messy, but that wasn't a big problem.
As a frequent internet surfer and street loafer, Rin certainly knew that the titles of 'husband' and 'father' could be interchangeable under certain circumstances.
The current Elysia was disguised as a child, but as long as she stayed by the Inner World Protagonist's side, the possibility of getting her ass pounded would only increase.
Miss Rin was very confident in the Inner World Protagonist's Teddy-dog kidneys.
"Alright, I don't need to worry about these two anymore. I should get back to my own business."
Her voice gradually faded as the petite, sakura-pink-haired girl left the area, heading towards a certain domain.
Since she had come all the way to the Elysian Realm, she should at least let her friends know she was safe and still alive.
As for the matter of revenge...
"None of them can escape. Not a single one!"
"Jie jie jie~~"
The exceptionally pleased girl arrived in a domain filled with a barbaric atmosphere. The lava that occasionally erupted from the cracks in the ground was like the anger in its master's heart.
Anger! Rage! Fury!
This was Kalpas.
The flames of rage in his heart were enough to annihilate any outsider, even a Herrscher!
But Rin knew that the mentally unstable Brother Kalpas just wanted a place where he could belong.
The end of her journey was a barren mountain range of black and red. A gaunt man stood on the summit with his back to her. "Outsider, you've got guts!"
Beneath the demonic mask was an unnaturally wide smile, enough to make one's blood run cold.
But that didn't include Rin. "Yo, Brother Kalpas, long time no see."
Kalpas: "..."
"After more than fifty thousand years, is this the attitude you greet me with?"
Kalpas: "..."
The angry man's stunned reaction seemed as if he had mechanically shut down.
"What's wrong? You think it's impossible for me to be here?"
Casually pulling out two chairs, Rin sat down as if she owned the place, with no intention of being a stranger.
In the Previous Era, Kalpas was basically partnered with her older sister, and the two completed missions together.
Over time, Rin also became familiar with Kalpas and had tasted his cooking many times.
After the initial shock and stupor, the gaunt man's gaze from under the mask carefully sized up the girl who had appeared before him.
"It's really you?"
"Could it be a fake?"
No one in the Elysian Realm had the ability to disguise themselves, and neither Fu Hua, who possessed Fenghuang Down, nor the psychic MANTIS Su would do something so boring.
Coupled with the Herrscher of Corruption's unique form of existence, it was indeed possible for the two of them to meet again.
"Ha! To think that woman Vill-V actually did something good for once."
He didn't know the specifics of what happened, but it definitely had something to do with Vill-V, the designer of that Divine Key.
At least for this moment, Kalpas's opinion of Vill-V, that woman who loved to stir up trouble, had improved slightly, but not by much.
"Rin, have you seen your sister yet?"
"Yeah. Besides Mobius, whom I met outside, she was the first one I saw."
Rin pouted. "I thought it would be a heartwarming reunion, but I didn't expect that Sakura person to turn around and try to marry me off."
Kalpas: "Oh."
Rin: ???
"Brother Kalpas, don't you have any thoughts on this?"
"What, you want me to plead your case? Beating that guy to death for you, now that's a good idea."
What did the family matters of Sakura and Rin have to do with him?
He was just friends and partners with the two sisters; he had no right to meddle in their family affairs.
Never mind Sakura planning to marry Rin off; even if the two sisters became lesbians like Elysia, it wouldn't cause the slightest emotional ripple in him.
Him, helping... the thought made him want to laugh.
Rin: "..."
Forget it. You have no idea how much of a pervert that guy is. The Herrscher in his jeans would scare you to death!
Her hope for help dashed, Rin had no choice but to change the subject back to catching up.
"Brother Kalpas, I want to eat your cooking..."
"No time. Cook it yourself!"
After speaking, the hot-tempered man turned and walked away, showing no intention of lingering with Rin.
Being fussy was a woman's style. A decisive man like him preferred to get things done on the move.
He hadn't taken more than a few steps when Kalpas's figure paused. He glanced towards a large black rock, then continued on his way.
Knowing that Rin was still alive was enough for him.
He didn't need to meddle in other matters.
Out of respect for her, [Decimation] would refrain from testing this visitor.
He left, cleanly and decisively, leaving Rin alone in the desolate world to sigh.
"Sigh~~, so asking Brother Kalpas for help is no good either?"
Behind the giant black rock, a rapid heartbeat suddenly sounded.
"That... that was close! I felt like Brother Kalpas was about to kill me!"
"Meow~~"
The voices of a person and a cat attracted Rin's attention. "Oh, it's you, Sis Pardo."
"What's with your cat? How did you even bring it into the Elysian Realm?"
Perhaps having found a pillar of support to cling to, Pardofelis, with cat ears on her head and a tail behind her, scrambled up from the ground with her big orange cat and ran to sit beside Rin.
"I almost felt like I was going to be scared to death by Brother Kalpas just now. Good thing you were here, so he didn't attack me."
Pardofelis patted her flat chest, her face full of lingering fear.
"So what are you trying to say? You still haven't answered my question."
"Ah, about that..."
Petting her cat, Pardofelis couldn't give an answer either. "I don't know either. This cat just appeared with me when I underwent the surgery. Maybe it's because I'm like a cat myself."
Smiling foolishly, Pardofelis was carefree, a trait that made others very envious.
At least in this moment, Rin greatly envied Pardofelis's way of handling things.
If you can't beat them, run. If you can't run, lie down. As long as you can survive, everything is fine.
If this person were in her current situation, she would probably gladly accept Sakura's arrangement and obediently give birth to a litter of kittens.
"I really envy you."
"Huh? Envy me for what?"
Pardofelis was confused.
"Nothing. Why did you show up in Brother Kalpas's territory?"
Rin changed the subject.
Pardofelis: "I heard news that Sis Eli suddenly became a mom, so I wanted to find her and confirm it."
"But I looked in all the places she usually hangs out and couldn't find any trace of her."
"I was originally going to find Sis Snake to confirm the situation, but I somehow entered a secret passage and ended up here when I opened my eyes."
Rin: "..."
Your luck is just too good.
She knew this person was born with maxed-out luck; she'd get seriously ill before a suicide mission, and she'd find things customers needed just by walking down the street.
But she never expected this ability to work in the Elysian Realm as well, allowing her to avoid a direct encounter with the Inner World Protagonist.
Truly an enviable ability.
"Stop looking. Your Sis Eli is busy with a major life event and doesn't have time for you right now."
Pardofelis sucked in a sharp breath. "Could it be..."
"That's right, it's exactly what you're thinking!"
Rin's expression was full of meaning. "Your Sis Eli is at a critical juncture. If you go looking for her on your own, something unpleasant might happen."
Patting Pardofelis's shoulder, Rin gave her a hint.
Whether she could grasp it or not depended on this cat's own wisdom.
As they were both women and Pardofelis was tactful in her dealings, although they hadn't seen each other for fifty thousand years, their conversation flowed as smoothly as ever.
After catching up, they agreed to meet up again later.
Rin and Pardofelis parted ways, each going to accomplish their own goals.
Pardofelis had wanted to go with Rin. After all, with the Herrscher of Corruption by her side, moving around in the Realm would be much more convenient.
But...
"Can, why do I always feel like something bad will happen if I'm around her?"
"Meow~~"
Kitty doesn't know.
...
Step by step, the sakura-pink-haired girl ascended, delving deeper into the Elysian Realm, which was personally being visited by the Herrscher of Corruption.
All obstacles were violently crushed, and the path she took was reshaped into the form of the Herrscher of Corruption.
The surrounding world began to shift towards an abstract style, a feeling that the world was turning into an oil painting, making one realize where they were.
"Griseo?"
The only child in the Elysian Realm, and everyone's darling.
In the Previous Era, this little one was on the brink of death due to a disaster and had to undergo the MANTIS surgery.
To seal the power within her, the Fire Moth placed her in the deepest part, under the care of Aponia, to prevent a catastrophe if her power went out of control.
She had no grudge against this painter.
But as for her guardian...
"Aponia, I'm here. Are you ready?"
...
"..."
Twitching, trembling, dazed, ecstatic...
The voluptuous, mature woman lay limply on the bed, her muscles trembling uncontrollably as if they had lost all control. Her delicate toes curled up, and alluring lace peeked out from under her white lab coat.
The data representing the humidity in this area had risen, forcing the black-haired youth to get up and move away from the wet bed.
"Doctor, remember not to drink so much water next time. Otherwise, it's quite awkward for everyone."
Mobius couldn't answer. In the corner, the pink-haired beauty rolled her eyes on behalf of her friend.
If you hadn't been messing around with her, would her cute little snake have ended up in such a disgraceful state?
Inner World Protagonist, despicable!
Suddenly...
"Elysia, you're peeking, aren't you?"
"..."
Oh... oh no!
