Millennium Tension

"My service?" Aizen questioned again with a strange face.

"Yes. Your service... Eh? Ah! That's not what I meant! I'm sorry! What I mean is what I have to pay to get your help..." Evelyn immediately panicked because understanding the words she said could mean something else.

"Do you think I'm lacking something?"

"Right... Even so... I really need your help. I will give you everything, I mean absolutely everything, even my body and soul!" Evelyn felt a little down hearing the fact that she had known before, but she still said it with determination, she knew Aizen would not help her just because of treasure or throne, so she was willing to offer everything for this.

'Master Aizen, she wants to throw her body at you.'

'Maybe this isn't as it sounds, Lady Evelyn could have been in the corner of the problem. Since I've decided to help her a little, so wait until she says the problems that bother her so much that made her come to us, ok? '

'Un...'

'Well... Take it easy. We will soon leave this solar system and go to Zavier, especially since there is still much we need to do beforehand. So, consider this my little gift to her, and tomorrow I'll give the City Lord something else to make sure things don't go off in the future.'

Aizen now not only said that to Axel but to Ana as well. Before going to Zavier they also need to research a lot of things that Axel gathered to increase their strength level.

They will still return to Earth and Mars later to further investigate the cause of mutations for which he still has not got a definitive answer for that.

Evelyn who did not hear Aizen's answer even after waiting for a moment looked down feeling disappointed and sad. "Is that impossible?"

Feeling Ana and Axel calming down, Aizen returned to the topic of conversation. "Don't be so sad, young lady. I haven't even said anything. How about you tell me everything about your problems? I'll be a good listener."

Evelyn raised her head and saw the warm smile on Aizen's face. Seeing Aizen seem to want to help her then Evelyn narrates everything that has burdened her for the past four years, a life story that she has never even told others before, even her oath sisters, Eileen and Rachel.

Aizen truly became a good listener until Evelyn finished narrating her life story. Of all the problems Evelyn has, Aizen can conclude that in fact she only needs two solutions, the power to take revenge and the great power to be her pillar of support or it can be said as her backing even though it is only a name.

It turned out that the monster that attacked Azazel City four years ago was still alive and from the description given by Evelyn, it was the same monster that Aizen had detected before descending to Mars. A [Rank 6] lonely monster in the north, a monster that causes nightmares for Evelyn every night and she wants to avenge that monster that is still in a state of injury and is still weak.

Even though the [Rank 6] monster is still in a weak state, the creature is still at [Rank 6] level and has the same threat of destruction at Azazel City four years ago or perhaps yesterday's incident at Stanford City could have been repeated. Therefore Evelyn cannot take that risk and attack with a very high risk of death.

One other thing is that Evelyn needs Aizen's figure as her pillar of support to make the other nobles and branch families below her not have strange thoughts on herself and stop trying to take over her power over Azazel City.

One factor hampering Azazel City's recovery from the battle four years ago was only because of this stubborn nobleman who wanted to depose himself from the seat of power.

Although the Avery family and the Stanford family helped her a little, it was not enough to solve her problems.

Even though it was just a name, but because of his identity being revealed today, it was more than enough to make other nobles look docile to Evelyn.

Hearing Evelyn finish telling her heart story with slightly teary eyes, she is a strong woman but she is still a young girl who is still twenty-three years old to bear herself everything in silence and sorrow over the loss of all her family.

"I understand your problem. Lady Evelyn, you can use my name to become your pillar of support to strengthen your footing in Azazel City." Aizen said his agreement calmly, and this greatly pleased Evelyn because if Aizen could be his support then part of the problem would be resolved instantly.

"But to kill a [Rank 6] monster, I won't do it." As if flying high up to the sky only to be dropped to the ground again, Evelyn's mood was now bleak and sad again. She really wants to avenge and prevent such tragedies from happening again.

"But... But you're so strong... Aren't you a god? Why can't you do it."

"Don't make a decision too quickly. Why should I do it if you can kill the monster yourself and satisfy your desire for revenge."

Evelyn's mood now was like a roller coster played by Aizen. "You... What do you mean?"

"Take this. I have already checked the robot unit in your private squad. If you make modifications like this you will be able to produce a power output equivalent to [Rank 6], that is more than enough to kill the monster in its current state."

Aizen sends the modification data which he made for the robot unit in her private squad to Evelyn's [Axel Device]. She glanced over the modifications that could be done to kill the cursed monster that caused the nightmare.

"Thank you... Thank you, Mr. Aizen... After everything is done I will dedicate everything just for you." Evelyn bowed slightly with emotion.

"Well... Don't think too much about dedicating everything. You still have a way ahead and consider this a small gift from me for you." Evelyn couldn't be more grateful to hear the godlike figure in front of her speak sincerely.

"Oh right. If you make these modifications and have enough energy to carry out attacks equivalent to [Rank 6] then the robot unit will suffer severe damage. So make sure if that happens you are not alone."

Evelyn understood his advice meant her safety, and Aizen who cared enough for her, made her feel a little warm in her heart.

"We won't stay on Mars for long, maybe if you do the revenge operation soon, we will watch you and you can go alone."

"Un! I'll finish it as soon as possible."

Evelyn immediately sent an order to her personal squad in Azazel City who did not come to Stanford City with her to complete the modification order to her main robot unit immediately. She realized this was a golden opportunity for Aizen to help her if something inevitable happened. Therefore, Evelyn had to ensure that the modifications would be completed tomorrow.

"Do you know why monsters evolve so much faster than humans no matter if it's on Mars or on Earth?" Aizen asked indifferently. He had speculations about it, but he just wanted to enlighten Evelyn who seemed to be facing difficult obstacles in the future.

Evelyn thought as if the question had a deep meaning. "Um... Maybe it's because planetary mutations are only directed at animals and plants? And humans only evolved because of their reason?"

"Maybe that's true, but I have a different perspective. Want to hear it?" Evelyn nodded her head like a little girl who would be given her favorite item. Who does not want to hear the opinion of someone who she considers to be a god?

"Then I will tell you. Mutations that occur on Earth result in a thick beam of energy that causes the evolution of all living things that live in it, and Mars is only affected afterward, therefore the condition of the Earth is far worse than that of Mars today." Aizen paused for a moment before continuing while looking at Evelyn's eyes meaningfully.

"It is not the intellect that makes humans here stronger, rather it is their intellect that indirectly impedes them. Civil war, power struggles, using each other rather than united, and many 'what if' questions are holding them back. Even though the Earth shouldn't have that kind of energy emission but humans must be good at adapting to be able to fight for their safety. Do you understand what I mean? "

"Un. I understand and thank you for enlightening this little girl's insight." Evelyn once again bowed slightly.

"Um... Mr. Aizen, can I call you Master?" Evelyn asked with a face full of hope, maybe this is one thing that needs to be realized for Aizen as her backing.

"Sounds good, you can call me by that name. The night is so late, do you want to sleep here? We have three empty rooms in this 'Grand Suite'." Aizen asked casually, not knowing that Evelyn would gladly accept it.

"Then Evelyn thanked Master." Evelyn moved and kowtowed three times as a ceremony to acknowledge a Master in the legend.

"Hum, just use any room as you wish." Aizen feeling a little awkward and just leave it alone before moved and goes to the master bedroom leaving Evelyn who also immediately goes to one of the bedrooms closest to the master bedroom.

"Now it's finished. Want to sleep?" Aizen asked as he slowly dropped into the bed.

"Un. Let's sleep." Axel agreed and lay down next to Aizen.

"Um... Brother Aizen, I suddenly have something to do." Ana, who pretended to be asleep, woke up and moved from the bed.

"Is that so? You just want to talk to the young lady right?"

"Right, I need to tell her a few things." Ana nodded and did not hide her intentions.

"Well... just have mercy on her." Aizen said with a slightly sorry face.

"Hmph! Then don't read my mind until I come back!" Ana knows she can't hide many things from Aizen, so being frank is the right solution, moreover, they will also share memories as Axel did before.

Ana had talked with Axel before about the thoughts and feelings of those connected through a system. But with the memories they will share and the souls they will bind to using the rituals Axel has learned, they will be truly inseparable.

After Ana came out of the main bed, Axel now hugged her body and put her head on Aizen's neck. Her soft breath exhaled around his neck which gave him a slight chill.

"What... Ow!" Before he could ask anything, Aizen felt his side neck gently bitten by Axel.

"What are you doing Axel?" Axel who was now in his arms and was hugging him back is biting his neck gently.

"I'm marking you. So leave the mark until morning." Axel made sure Aizen did not remove the mark using his energy manipulation.

"..." Feeling he shouldn't fight back, Aizen just kept quiet and let her do whatever she wanted to do.
