Chapter 1860 - 1366: Sword Maiden Returns_2

"You’re really impatient, can’t even wait for one night." Siflin said, half laughing, half crying.

They saw Diya and others gathered in a circle and joined in, sipping milk tea as they chatted, with topics that never seemed to end, filling the hall with laughter.

Though they were quite familiar with each other in every sense, due to their responsibilities to reside in the Void Realm and complete various urgent tasks to maintain its balance over the past three years, their rest times weren’t fixed, making it rare for so many to gather together.

Ash had five homes, located in Seven Heavens, Dazzling Star, Blood Moon, Gospel, and Senluo, residing in different homes based on the season. Summer was spent at the Dazzling Star house, not just for the climate and food, but also due to Jiale City offering the best view of summer nights.

As the star cluster rose to illuminate the earth, Jiale City lit up with thousands of lights, and Ash and the others brought out various dishes and invited everyone to take their seats.

However, even when everyone was seated, Ash stood in the hall, looking toward the door.

"Will Sword Maiden and Dazzling Star return tonight?" Weiser asked.

"Sword Maiden said she’d return before dinner," Ash replied, "Why don’t you start eating, I’ll wait for her a bit longer."

"No way," Diya immediately said, "Of course, we wait for her to eat together!"

"Sonia is always punctual," Felix expressed some concern, "Could something have happened?"

"Why don’t you check her status in the Mage’s Handbook?" Vishi suggested.

Ash nodded, and a hefty handbook appeared before him. Over the past three years, Ash had been exploring the uses of the Bonded Divine Being, with the Mage’s Handbook being his greatest achievement. Through it, Ash could monitor all mages, Technique Spirits, and creatures of the Void Realm, even issuing tasks, evaluations, and messages within.

As long as he held the Mage’s Handbook, Ash could easily oversee the operation of the All Virtual Realm even from home, making it a handbook for ruling, a harem handbook, a complete atlas handbook...

Ash casually flipped the pages, opening to the "Sonia Sevi" section. Just as he saw Sword Maiden’s exact location, the villa door burst open, and a red-haired figure swiftly entered the hall. Ash opened his arms to embrace her, but she lifted him up and spun him around.

"Darling," Sonia said after several spins, her eyes filled with sweetness, gazing at Ash with love, "I’m back."

"Welcome back," Ash laughed, "But shouldn’t I be the one spinning you around, not the other way?"

"Because I miss you much more than you miss me. You have many women besides me, but I only have you." Sonia glanced toward the others in the hall, unabashedly showing her jealousy as she passionately kissed Ash.

But she immediately said grumblingly, "Witch, Silver Lamp, Vishi, Freyja, Siflin, Hanna, Tamasi, Felix... how could you let them eat sneakily knowing I returned? And they don’t even wipe their mouths after!"

"Alright, let me wipe your mouth."

Ash raised his sleeve, helping Sonia wipe. Sonia grabbed his hand, fiercely saying, "I returned after conquering a world line for you, yet you don’t leave a pure kiss for me and let them tarnish it... I’m going to be angry!"

Sword Sound Supreme Sonia, she and Supreme Dazzling Star together responsible for conquering other world lines, representing the Supreme of the Void Realm, willing to bring all world lines’ mages under Ash’s dominion, advancing Ash’s mage concept from a single world’s "original concept" to encompass all world lines’ "final concept!"

It’s not Ash’s conquering desire, but every world line nurtures a devouring World Snake. They solved their world’s snake, but others would still appear in other lines. Eventually, the snakes from other lines would come and try to devour their world line.

To completely eliminate the threat of the final World Snake, they needed to conquer other world lines quickly to devour the mage concept and prevent the birth of the final snake; simultaneously strengthening themselves, ensuring they could fight even if snakes descended from numerous worlds.

Theoretically, this task should be personally completed by Ash, but he also needed to preside over the Void Realm to handle emergencies at any moment, so the conquest task was assigned to Dazzling Star and Sword Maiden.

Though Ash didn’t want Sonia to take risks, she longed for adventure after six months of quiet living, so he let Dazzling Star lead her through three missions, based on the evaluation, ultimately allowing Sonia to join the "Conquest Series."

By the way, Sonia bearing the name Sword Sound represents her major in swordsmanship and minor in Sound Technique, channeling her musical pursuit into conquering worlds.

Next, Vishi also planned to join the Conquest Series, coincidentally Sonia conquered a new world line; Ash was prepared to allocate 50% of the Supreme Holy Grail quota, aiding Vishi to achieve 100% Supreme of Magic.

It might seem like plenty, but since Dazzling Star and Sword Maiden have conquered multiple world lines, Dazzling Star’s supreme share is 850%, Sword Maiden is 600%, meaning any world line’s Supreme of Magic uniting can’t withstand them.

Otherwise, how would they conquer world lines?

Ash is the most wondrous Eight-winged of all time, without any Void Wings Magic Power, all Technique Spirit Wonders on him have been distributed, except for the "Bonded Divine", which remains with him for everyone to borrow, he’s nearly empty-handed.

Yet, Ash owns everything, because he can borrow any mage’s power at any time, even gathering the power of all mages to himself.

If normal Eight-winged embodies gathering within oneself, Ash’s Eight-winged is dispersing to the world, or rather, the entire world is his wings.

All is one, one is all, through his existence, he attests to the supreme truth of magic.

But when the ultimate Eight-winged and a Supreme of Magic gather, they invariably revert to being sweet yet noisy silly couples.

"So tonight, how about you tarnish me first?" Ash smiled, tilting his head, wrapping her neck, "Everyone else has to be after you, doesn’t that cheer you up?"

"Everyone else?"

Sonia raised her eyebrows, showing a dangerous smile, "Ash, how long have we been apart?"

Ash recalled, "Twenty days?"

Sonia suddenly commanded, "Stick out your tongue."

Ash just opened his mouth when the red-haired Sword Maiden eagerly invaded, fierce and passionate, deep and focused. Under Sonia’s strong assault, Ash unexpectedly surrendered; when Sonia finally released him, he gasped gently, his face soft pink like he might melt into a puddle, barely clinging to Sonia’s snowy shoulder, buried in her soft chest.

"You know, a French kiss is actually the prelude to desire," Sonia whispered near his ear, her warm breath blowing against his earlobe, "Tonight, I won’t let anyone else have a chance to sully you."

Clap, clap.

Beside the round dining table, Vishi clapped expressionlessly and asked, "Sword Maiden, are you going to eat, bathe, or eat him first?"

Sonia elegantly wiped her lips, sat down triumphantly. The female mages exchanged glances, and a subtle atmosphere arose at the dining table.

They did not return just to be spectators.
