Finally, it was Alyse. Possessing rare skills, she risked her life to destroy Zagnat's shell that could reflect magic, and then she stuck to Zagnat tightly, making it unable to dodge Lud's magic, even though she would be affected.
But in the end, Liu's most powerful magic still failed. Zagnat, who was built in the dungeon and had no weaknesses, had a strong vitality that required the entire body to be destroyed before it would completely die. This allowed Zagnat to survive even after suffering such serious injuries, but it needed a certain amount of time to regenerate.
Liu was helpless. She could only take advantage of this time to escape. The lives that were saved by the sacrifices of all her companions could not be wasted in vain.
Astraea, all the members of the clan, Li Xuan and the future Liu followed the past Liu step by step towards the correct time node in the future. They watched her decadent, desperate and sad, and watched Liu fall into the rage of revenge, killing and killing, wanting to die, but survived. They watched her being picked up by Xier when she was seriously injured, and saw the relationship between Xier and Freya. Then time fast-forwarded step by step and soon came to the node where Li Xuan arrived.
Then they saw the conversation and transaction between Goddess Astraea, Liu, and Li Xuan.
Chapter 253 Leaving the Earthly World
Li Xuan had no intention of hiding this matter, so Kaguya Gojono, who had been trying to hint at it from Li Xuan, knew the truth directly.
This price can be said to be heavy, but it cannot be said to be a particularly great sacrifice. In Kaguya's opinion, Li Xuan is much better than many gods. No one in the entire maze city of Orario can match his appearance and strength. Compared with most perverted gods, his character is also very good. As for the matter of my illness, normal men are like this.
Basically, there is only a difference in ability, but no difference in ideas.
But she was probably the only one who thought so. For Alyse and the others, the sacrifice made by Goddess Astralia and Liu was still huge. Although Li Xuan was very good, Goddess Astralia and Liu lost the right to choose.
They were both moved and guilty, and they thought about just dying. However, they understood that Goddess Astraea, as the goddess of fairness and justice, was the most trustworthy. Since she had already promised Li Xuan, she would not go back on her word. By doing this, they were only trampling on the sacrifice of the goddess and Liu, and it would do nothing except move themselves.
In the end, Li Xuan and all the members of Astraea's family arrived at the 803 end of this time travel and returned to the starting point.
"Okay, we're here. This is Orario five years from now."
After Li Xuan embedded the existence of all the members of Astraea's family into the current time node, he turned around and introduced them to the women.
"This must be the shop of the Hesfitos Familia, right? I often come here to buy weapons, and it doesn't seem to have changed much in the past five years."
As the leader of the clan, Alisha often comes here to buy weapons and equipment, so she is very familiar with the shop of the Hephaestus clan.
"Alyshe, what you're saying is nonsense. With the gods around, five years isn't like a sea change. Of course, there won't be much change. If you go somewhere else, you'll see how much has changed."
Kaguya Gojouno has given up hope on Alisha's brain.
"Ryu, what's wrong with you?"
Leila, who had a particularly good relationship with Liu, noticed Jiu's abnormality. She covered her head and remained silent.
"I'm fine. It's just that two completely different memories are intertwined in my mind. It will be fine in a while."
"Don't worry about her. Liu, this useless elf, is now the most powerful among the clan. Does she still need our concern?"
"That's right. If you hadn't told me, Kaguya, I would have forgotten that Liu is the oldest among us now, about three or four years older than me. So, Liu, do you need me to call you sister?"
Facing the teasing of Kaguya and Leila, Liu covered his head and said unhappily.
"Okay, then go ahead. Sister Orario will protect you in the labyrinth city from now on."
"Let's forget about it. Let's just talk about our own affairs."
Kaguya Gojouno felt that Ryu was different from the one in her memory. If it was the old Ryu, she would definitely reject her angrily, but now she could even turn the tables on her. After all, Ryu had been away from them and grown up outside for five years. Five years was enough time for her to grow and mature.
"Since you've made arrangements, I'll be leaving first, Astraea. I was planning to go back, but if I don't leave now, I'm afraid Hestia won't be able to wait any longer."
"Where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going home. Hestia also asked me to take her to another world. If you're interested, you can contact me in the future. I'm afraid you don't have the time right now."
It is true that Astraea has her own new family in the outside world, and she is also planning to return to Orario. She has no plans to explore other worlds for the time being.
"But you've already rescued them, and I haven't..."
Li Xuan stopped the shy Astralia from continuing.
"Don't treat me like a sex-crazed devil. Since we're already in a relationship, we can just get along slowly. We still have a lot of time. Okay, I'm leaving now. If you need anything, please contact me through the contact information I gave you, or go directly to Loki's Familia Sword Princess Aisi. She can find me directly."
There is no need for Li Xuan to appear so impatient. He should play the long game to catch a big fish. With so many people in Astralia's family, he still needs to perform well.
Regardless of what the people from Astraea's family behind him thought, Li Xuan simply left and returned to the shop of Hephaestus' family.
"Hestia, are you ready? We're leaving."
"Alright, alright, I've said goodbye to all my friends. Let's go now, to another world. Hehe, I'm the first among all the gods to reach another world. I'm really curious about what a world full of delicious food would be like. I'm really looking forward to it."
"In that case, I will take Hestia with me. Hephaestus, if you need anything from Hestia, you can go to Ais. She can pass the message to Hestia."
"Okay, I know."
She was still a little worried about her friend's departure. Hephaestus was not too worried about her life safety. She was worried about Hestia's identity as a virgin goddess. No matter how you look at it, Li Xuan would not be the kind of person who would let go of the meat in his mouth.
However, Hestia is already hundreds of millions of years old, and there is no need for Hephaestus to interfere with Hestia's choice. The danger is just this much anyway, so let Hestia go.
"By the way, Hephaestus, I remember that Artemis is going back to Orario soon. I haven't seen her since I went to the lower world. Please tell her about my whereabouts. If possible, I will send you some local specialties."
"Okay, okay, I got it. I'll talk to Artemis for you. Now go."
Hephaestus felt that her worries were in vain. Hestia was about to leave, and she still wanted to push everything onto her. Did she really owe Hestia in her previous life?
"Hehe, sorry, thank you, Hephaestus."
"Okay, let's go."
Seeing that Hestia and the others had said goodbye, Li Xuan brought her to the world of Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma. Everyone in the Chikiri family was waiting for Li Xuan there. Li Xuan had already told them everything in advance. Knowing that Li Xuan was coming, the Chikiri family naturally did not dare to neglect him.
They left the nearly completed headquarters of the international culinary organization behind and came out to welcome Li Xuan.
Chapter 254: Lamia is about to wake up
Li Xuan did not choose to stay in the Food Wars! Soul World for too long. He still had things to deal with. After arranging Hestia's affairs and confirming that she was very satisfied, he returned to the small garden.
Hestia couldn't help but be dissatisfied. After all, the arrangements made by the Chikiri family were very thorough. After knowing her personality, they arranged various entertainment activities specifically for her. Every day, the Chikiri family would carefully prepare her favorite food for Hestia.
This is not because of how much face Li Xuan has, but because Hestia, as the goddess of the kitchen and the one in charge of the sacred fire of Olympus, the blessing she gives is very useful to the chef. It can greatly stimulate the chef's potential and speed of progress. It is also of great help to the cooking control, one of the most important basic skills of a chef. The Chikiri family naturally has to show respect. Even if it is strength, no matter how weak Hestia is, she has experienced a great battle against the gods in heaven. She is much stronger than Erina Chikiri, who can't exert much strength.
………………
"Master, are you telling the truth? Lamia is about to wake up."
The reason why Li Xuan was in a hurry to return to the box garden was that since he became a double-digit figure, he had been slowly taking on the curses of billions of gods and demons on Lamia. This was a delicate job, and he could not move too fast or too big, otherwise it would be bad if he hurt Lamia.
So today, almost two months later, Li Xuan finally solved Lamia's problem.
"Yes, that's why I called you and little Lamia over here. I think when your sister wakes up, she'll want to see you and little Lamia the most."
"Well, thank you~, Master."
Leticia was very grateful for Li Xuan's kindness, and it was worth it that she had been helping Li Xuan deal with the tedious work of the now huge Arcadia Community.
Especially recently, the Arcadia Community has been working with Thousand Eyes to promote gourmet food and various ingredients, so she has been so busy that she has no time to take care of little Lamia's affairs.
She had heard that Lamia and Rias were doing quite well, and had recently started winning various Gift Games. In the past month or two, while Izayoi Sakamaki, Asuka Kuon, and Kasukabe Yō had been settling down, they had established a reputation as the new generation of the Arcadia Community.
Having said that, they have gotten into a lot of trouble, especially little Lamia, who is particularly fond of causing trouble. If it weren't for Li Xuan's current reputation, it would not be so easy for them to escape many times.
"It's just that I've been busy lately and haven't had time to take care of you, so you keep getting into trouble for me. Just wait, when your mother wakes up, I'll let her teach you a lesson."
"Ah, no, Aunt, I didn't do anything particularly illegal. There's no need to tell Mother about this."
Lamia II knew that his mother Lamia listened to her sister Leticia the most. If Leticia really said that, her mother Lamia would most likely do it, and then her good days would be over.
"It's not particularly against the rules, but that means you still broke the rules. Isn't that right? I originally thought you'd come out of Ouroboros and be used to being suppressed, so I didn't pay much attention to you. But you just let yourself go."
Originally, Leticia hoped to give little Lamia a happy and free childhood to make up for the psychological trauma she suffered in Ouroboros. As a result, little Lamia is now too free. It seems that she is hiding from Leticia, otherwise she would have been caught and educated long ago.
"Aunt, mother just woke up. It's not nice to tell her this. I will try my best to correct it myself. So, aunt, please don't tell mother, okay?"
Lamia ran to Leticia and acted coquettishly, then turned around and signaled Li Xuan to help her.
"The child has been doing well lately and is much happier, so you don't have to be so harsh on him. He's just a kid, and this is normal. It's not a big deal anyway. Those poets died, so let them. Debts should be paid, that's only right. Little Lamia, this is all for you, for Lamia's revenge."
Compared to the reserved and mature Lamia when they first met, Li Xuan still prefers this naughty little Lamia, because this Lamia II is more real.
He also saw that the biggest trouble little Lamia had caused was nothing more than killing the poet who had cursed Leticia and the vampire clan. It was no big deal. How could the gods behind those poets dare to cause trouble for him because of this?
On the contrary, little Lamia was able to find and kill those poets so easily. It was obvious that the group of gods behind them had the intention of showing goodwill to Li Xuan.
Even the Christians were not willing to come into conflict with Li Xuan just for a few poets. Their cooperation with Taoism and Buddhism had just begun and they had not yet been able to get along well. After all, as the three most powerful groups of gods in the box garden, there were many conflicts between them and they all had their own ulterior motives towards each other.
The Christians also have to be wary of the situation where Taoism and Buddhism are willing to bow their heads and be humble. After all, unlike the Christians, after real hostility, Li Xuan and Taoism and Buddhism have the possibility and option of reconciliation. By then, the end of the Christians will not be much better.
This situation is not impossible. After all, in the universe outside the box garden, Christianity is the religion with the largest number of believers and the widest spread, without a doubt. Its influence is greater than the second and third ranked Buddhism and Taoism combined.
Taoism, Buddhism and Li Xuan joined forces to divide up the Christians. With such huge benefits, the Christians really did not trust Taoism and Buddhism. They had to take the lead and show their loyalty, otherwise the Christians would not take the initiative to provoke a fight with Li Xuan.
After all, Taoism and Buddhism will definitely be very happy by then, and they will never give up until the last drop of the Christian god's blood is shed.
"Forget it, now that you've said that, what else can I say? Just let her be."
Leticia endured it originally for the sake of Li Xuan and the Arcadia Community. She didn't want to have too many enemies. Otherwise, she would have taken action against this group of poets long ago, and there would be no turn for Lamia II to take action. Leticia could laugh off the malicious curses and slander of this group of poets, but as the culprit who caused her sister Lamia to fall into this state, she absolutely could not tolerate it.
The punishment for Lamia II was merely a temporary confinement to the palace, a gesture to the outside world. Since Li Xuan said there would be no punishment, then forget it.
Chapter 255: Lamia wakes up
"Okay, okay, now you're happy."
"Thank you, uncle."
Little Lamia was indeed very happy, as she had already grown wild at heart and did not want to be disciplined like this.
"But sometimes you should not go too far, otherwise next time Leticia gets angry, I won't be there to plead for you."
Li Xuan still had to warn that the environment of the sandbox was too relaxed and free, and it was easy to be plotted against.
"Okay, Lamia's almost awake, let's go in."
Pushing the door open, the three of them walked in. The most conspicuous figure in the room was the vampire princess, Lamia, who resembled Sleeping Beauty. She slept peacefully on the large bed, looking nothing like the monster she had before. She was dressed in a dress, looking no different from the younger sister Leticia had imagined.
Born as royal sisters, Leticia and Lamia share a stark contrasting perspectives. The eldest, Leticia, was trained as a warrior to inherit the throne, while the younger, Lamia, was nurtured as a tactful princess skilled in diplomacy. Leticia, in her knightly attire, and Lamia, in her lavish dress, reveal their contrasting circumstances through their attire.
"Royal sister? Am I dreaming? Or have I been sealed in myself for too long and am hallucinating?"
Lamia slowly opened her eyes, and the first person she saw was her sister Leticia and her daughter Lamia II.
But how could this be possible? She had clearly sealed herself off to prevent the out-of-control spirit from taking her away, so how could she still see her sister and daughter?
Is there something wrong with the seal? Why did she wake up?
"Mom, you weren't dreaming, nor were you hallucinating. It was your uncle who saved you. He resolved the curse and seal on you."
"Uncle!!??? Does my sister have a husband?"
When Lamia heard that her sister Leticia had a man, she no longer cared about her own problems and put them aside, but instead became concerned about Leticia's relationship status.
She had said at the beginning that if one wanted to marry the royal sister, he would have to pass the test of her and the head maid Kara. Ordinary heroes and brave men were definitely not worthy of her sister Leticia.
"Ah."
Leticia was inexplicably shy. Although she and Li Xuan were already an old married couple, Lamia was her sister who grew up with her, so it was impossible for her not to care about her thoughts.
"Who is the other party? How strong is he? Which community is he from?"
Seeing that Leticia admitted it herself, Lamia became even more anxious and asked a series of questions.
"Mom, you just woke up, and you've only been concerned about my aunt. As a daughter, I'm jealous. Although I knew from the inherited memories that you're obsessed with your sister, I didn't expect you to be so obsessed with her."
Little Lamia felt a little jealous when she saw her mother's anxious look, and couldn't help but tease her a few times.
"Mom, what you want to know is whether my uncle is worthy of my aunt. Actually, he is completely worthy of her. In fact, my aunt even wins."
"How is that possible? My sister is a great person, considered the most precious treasure of our vampire clan. There is no way a man like you could exist."
Lamia was anxious. Even though she was a daughter, she couldn't say such words to belittle her sister Leticia.
"But Uncle-sama is a double-digit universal truth. Even if Aunt-sama is outstanding, she still qualifies."
"Universal truth? Is it the same universal truth as the main god that vampires like me believe in? How is that possible? Little Lamia, even if you are just saying this to me out of anger, you should give me a better reason."
Although in Lamia's heart, her sister Leticia has always been the best, Lamia has never connected her with the truth of the universe.
The only cosmic truth that Lamia is familiar with is the creator of their vampire clan and Lord Dragon Kulima, the main god of the world.
Vampires are a race created by the world dragon Julimo to monitor and prevent chaos in the world's system tree.
Therefore, Leticia was able to reach the position of "Dragon Knight", the guardian of the system tree, and the shadow of the dragon gifted on her body came from the dragon Julimo, the creator world believed in by the vampire clan.
In reality, the Dragon Knight Leticia will serve as the king of the vampire clan, while her younger sister Lamia will be the Dragon Priestess responsible for presiding over the worship of the World Dragon Kurima...
The most important affairs of state are war and sacrifice. The eldest princess, Leticia, was trained as a knight to lead the war effort, while the second princess, Lamia, was charged with the responsibility of overseeing the sacrifices. This was the correct approach in the Little Garden. Without supporters behind them, the vampire clan would not have been able to gain a foothold in the Little Garden and grow stronger.
It's a pity that the vampire clan's worship and belief in the world dragon Kulima is only one-sided, and has never received a response from the creator world dragon Kulima. Otherwise, the gods would not dare to plot against the vampire clan so easily, and the rulers of all classes might really have hope.
