The royal chamber was quiet as Malorvin had already vanished from existence, leaving behind those who witness the spectacle.

"I... I must be dreaming," Crazy Blade said as he no longer resisted his weakness, falling onto his knees as he plunged his blade into the earth. His eyes now gazed at the devastation around them, looking as if a few bombs had been let loose.

Thunder's Daughter was still seated in a lotus posture, meditating to regain as much as her magic power as possible quickly. Her eyes flickered with lightning bolts as she sized up the room, looking at the area in which the strange man's attack had blown off the ceiling.

There, one wouldn't see a blood moon looming over a grim world anymore, but rather a brightly lit night sky by dazzling stars and mostly mysterious planets that seemed to spiral around the same orbit.

'It's good... I don't care about anything else, as long as this disaster has passed.' She said with a sigh, finally feeling a tinge of relief.

Crazy Blade, having caught his breath glanced around. He eyed the unconscious Nero and nodded before he stared at the entrance with a stern look.

"That darn Delkan! If I ever catch his cowardly ass, I'll shatter his spine!" Crazy Blade yelled while gripping the handle of his weapon.

"Humph! It seems that there are also humans more cowardly than a Rattan., it makes me wonder if it's good to have our alliances with all of their kind." Thunder's Daughter said with a tone of discontent, but after a short while of back and forth with Crazy Blade, she threw the matter of Delkan in the back of her mind.

"Ivy? How are you feeling?" Mikan said as he looked at his sister.

Ivy wiped the small bits of blood from her mouth as she answered, "I'll be fine."

"Good, I'll go check on that thief," Mikan said with eyes that had a bit of concern as he started to walk away.

Ivy gave him a look before she teased, "Oh, you want to check on sister Lily, then go; she's probably waiting for you."

"Hey, what's with that tone? You know it's not like that..." Mikan said in a slightly embarrassed manner.

"Sure, I believe you, brother," Ivy said with a non-believing smile.

Mikan didn't dare to stay long and hurried along, leaving behind Ivy, whose eyes turned elsewhere with a strange look. Soon, he arrived at a different part of the room; his eyes swept about the area as he searched for Lily.

"Lily, are you okay?" Mikan's voice sounded as he strugglingly pushed his tired and wounded body towards an area with crumbled rocks. He walked over and stared at the silent scene for a while, but as he heard no reply, his face turned solemn. Yet, his worse fear didn't last as a slightly weakened voice sounded.

"I... I'm okay," Lily said from a little distance to the right.

"Really? Then stay where you are; I'm coming over now." Mikan said as he ran in the direction.

"Huh? No... don't!" Lily said in a hurry as if trying to hide something, but as if by manly instinct, Mikan hurried over with a strange glow in his eyes.

He soon came to a halt as he saw her lying on the ground with her plump bum high in the air, shaking restlessly as her face rested against the concrete floor.

Mikan's eyes lit up as if he saw a wonderful sight; he gulped and tried his best to calm down his rising mood.

Lily felt the heated gaze behind her, her face turning a bit red as she tried to turn herself over, but sadly, the blow from the attack prior had weakened her drastically.

"Lily, you don't look so good; how about I help you up?"

Mikan said in a cool tone, masking his change.

Lily gritted her teeth as she tried to hide her embarrassment as she replied, "Fine."

While the embarrassing scene here played out, the others had also taken the time to recover themselves. Elly had finally found the energy to her feet; she tried her best to shrug off the exhaustion on her face as she scanned the scene of rubbles.

"Nero?" Elly said as she stared at Nero's collapsed figure that still rested in his previous location, she then prepared to hurry over to him, but the look on her face changed as if she saw a most hateful scene.

'Why that dirty fox? How dare she?' Elly cursed inwardly.

As if she suddenly got strength from somewhere, her body moved like an arrow from a bow as she dashed towards the extremely uncomforting scene.

Beside the unconscious Nero, Mia had approached with a charming smile on her face. She sat herself down by his side and held onto his exposed chest with her palm.

"Wild Silver... you fought a good fight, though you were the one to actually defeat that monster, it was even more, hehe... enticing..."

Mia said with a strange flicker in her eyes as she licked her lips, her mind right now, not even bothering to process the hell that had just transpired in this world. As a Charming Spirit Fox, far more than any other kind, except for the Spirit Rabbits, their women are more prone to their hormonal desires.

Mia stared at Nero's handsome face ignoring the mess caused by battle, her eyes zoning onto his lips that had bits of blood on them. She smirked while whispering, "Oh, such a mess, I must help you clean it."

In this instance, Mia lowered her head with her mouth, slowly puckering as if she was about to perform swallow his lips. But there was a change before anything could happen.

"Hey, you better get up right now!" Elly's angry voice sounded as it seemed she had now recovered her strength.

Mia lifted her head and stared at her in surprise before she snorted and answered, "Hmph! So it's you again, Miss Balkras; who are you to tell me what I can and can't do?"

Elly glared at Mia, who stared at her provocatively; when she saw how she held onto Nero's chest like it was her own, she felt a fire in her chest like none before as she spoke, "You... you better let him go, he's my property!"

She said, recalling that she had once bought him for a few Copper Coins. Mia looked at her surprisedly for a moment before she snickered, her palm which held onto Nero's chest then firmly grasped his arm as she spoke, "Then I'll see if he can still be yours if I mark him!"

With that said, she hurriedly tried to pull him closer to herself, but Elly seemed as if she was expecting her actions. She had arrived by Nero's other side with unknown speed, grasping his other arm, before she violently yanked it towards herself.

"Let go, you big bosom bimbo!" Elly yelled as she dragged him hard.

"No, you let go, you flat-chested brat!" Mia yelled back as she pulled even harder.

The scene soon turned strange as it transformed into a sight that would be envied by many, a sight of two beautiful young girls pulling and fighting a tug of war against one poor youth's body.

Ivy, who was approaching, silently halted as she saw this scene; she hesitated before clasping her palms tightly into a fist and retreating with a sour look in her eyes. Nevertheless, though there was bitterness, there was a newly festering glimmer of stubbornness and determination.

Red Rain looked at this curiously from a little distance away, but she shook her head, pondering more complex affairs; her eyes were now staring at the scene outside of the destroyed roof.

'That man had destroyed not only the World Artifacts but even casually a being that seemed no different from a Supremacy Class. Based on their conversation, it's clear that both that strange man and the Master of Horrors isn't a lifeform from our world. The question is, how did he even get here? These worlds under the jurisdiction of the Universe Ring's should be absolute, even more so with that seer observing all things, So just where, where could they have possibly come from?'

She thought with a very complex look in her eyes, but she couldn't find any answers no matter how long she pondered.

At this time, Adult Nero, who stood within Nero's consciousness, gazed at the scene outside with calm eyes. He had already tried his best to analyze the strange man from before, but as he couldn't comprehend him, he didn't bother to waste his time. He now peered at the Universe Ring, which was slowly regaining its brilliant golden luster as he contemplated.

'Hmm, the Universe Ring seems to be returning to its unusual state; I guess in a few minutes, it should be able to reregister itself. I wonder, how will it treat our off-handed victory?'

He thought as he had never experienced something like this in his lifetime, he felt a bit interested due to the unknown and unexpected variables.

"I better wake him; he still has to complete that quest of his before anything else happens." Adult Nero said as he stared at Nero, who floated in front of him in silence. He slowly reached his palm out, tapping his forehead with his finger as he smiled and spoke, "Wake up."

Nero had suddenly awoken to the outside scene with a resonant sound like that of a thunderclap. He was about confused by the current changes, but before he couldn't process anything with a logical state of mind, much to his shock, he found that he had to deal with a man's most complicated affair.
