I can copy the beautiful girl

But this is just like the fear of the Witch of Envy. In daily life, we will ignore it, but once her name appears in our minds, our bodies will subconsciously tremble.

Therefore, Crusch planned to increase his capital by conquering the White Whale... Of course, it's not that simple.

The danger of white whales was well known to all. For the Duke Crusch, taking such a risk to gain the reputation of a whale hunting hero was simply not worth it. After all, unlike Emilia, her reputation was at the bottom. Instead, she was at the top of the five candidates for the throne.

Yes, even though Crusch said that he would abolish the contract with the Dragon God after she became king, she still received the highest support. After all, the other four candidates were even less reliable than the last.

Therefore, Crusch wanted to defeat the White Whale out of the justice in her heart.

She wanted to kill the white whale, the monster that harmed the world, and to avenge those who suffered because of the white whale.

This is a just and noble act.

——Having said that, she still underestimated the white whale.

In the original novel, because the white whale appears first and his performance is not too strong, he does not seem to be too strong.

But in fact, the strength of the white whale is really top-notch in this world.

The white whale inherited some of Gluttony's powers and possessed a physique that could significantly weaken magical power. More importantly... it could fly.

Air supremacy is really cheating in a world where flying ability is not the norm. If air supremacy is combined with the strongest attack that can directly eliminate the existence of others, the fog of disappearance, it is even more of a cheat.

In this case, magic that can be used for long-range attacks is basically ineffective against the white whale... It really doesn't make sense that it can endanger the world for hundreds of years and still be alive and well.

"With your help, could such an outcome have been avoided?"

Crusch finally showed a determined expression, stood up, and then immediately bowed his head deeply.

"Please, Natsuki Subaru, please help me."

"Lord Kurushi!"

Phyllis looked at Crusch with dissatisfaction as he displayed such a humble attitude, and then she couldn't help but glare at me.

Seeing this, I smiled. "Crouch, there's no need to beg like this. I told you this is a deal. You form an alliance with Emilia, and I will help you defeat the White Whale. It's a very fair deal."

I stood up, put Beatrice down, and reached out to Crusch.

"Tomorrow I will have Emilia come to formally sign the covenant with you. I hope you can be gentle with Emilia then."

"Emilia truly has an excellent knight... though it's hard to say whether you're truly a knight." Crusch extended his hand and said with a smile, "Until now, I haven't felt you're suited for the position of knight. On the contrary, of all the people I've met, you're probably the most suitable to be called a king. If you were to become the king of the Kingdom of Lugnica, perhaps this country would move towards the future I envision."

"Are you planning to let me follow the Butterfly Dream route? I'd really like that, too."

"Butterfly Dream?" Crusch tilted his head in confusion.

"It's okay, don't worry about it."

It's just an if line. It's just something that Changyue Laozai wrote on the spur of the moment because he seemed to finally want to fulfill his father's responsibilities.

Although the other if lines do not write out the entire process, at least there is a process before there is a result, which is a reasonable development line. However, the Butterfly Dream is really just a dream.

There is no process at all, only results.

And it's an unreasonable result no matter how you look at it.

That’s why it’s called the butterfly dream.

——It’s purely the product of the old thief Changyue’s illness.

After he finished writing it, he felt ashamed and deleted it, but later he mustered up the courage to face his dark history and uploaded it again.

I can only say that he is worthy of being the author who can write a story like Re0 that tortures the protagonist in various aspects. He not only dares to expose the ugliness of a purely ordinary male protagonist like Natsuki Subaru, but also dares to face his own dark history.

As for this kind of dark history route - don't tell me, I actually really want to give it a try.

Men's greed is never satisfied!

...But now, compared to this kind of thing, I still have some doubts and I want to get the answer directly by asking Crusch.

But after thinking about it, I decided to let it go. It was just an insignificant matter.

Or rather, I have already made some guesses, so there is no need to care.

Leaving Crusch's mansion with Beatrice's hand, I turned to look at Rem who was following behind. "Rem, thank you for coming along to help me out."

"Rem doesn't think you need Rem."

"Just having Rem by my side motivates me to work harder."

"Rem thinks Subaru is amazing. He can handle anything on his own and doesn't need anyone's help."

"The hero who saved you is just that powerful."

"There's absolutely no sense that you saved Rem."

"After all, I'm used to nipping danger in the bud, so you didn't even feel the danger."

"Are you a little regretful that you didn't come to the rescue?"

"A little bit, actually. After all, I was going to completely conquer Rem during the mansion incident!"

"I don't understand what you're saying at all, and Rem doesn't want to understand either."

"I mean I love you."

"It's insincere, Rem refuses."

Ruthless rejection.

It's a joke that you said I was insincere.

My love for Rem is evident to all.

Having said that, I wasn't surprised to be rejected. After all, my progress in conquering Rem was pitifully low.

That’s right, it is such a difficult task to capture a beautiful girl.

So replicas are great!

So, in order to experience the benefits of the replica, I came to the hotel alone the next day and summoned Anastasia when Firut (the replica) and the others had not arrived yet.

The establishment of the Adventurer's Guild is finally officially on the agenda.

Firut (true form) plans to transform into a receptionist.

And Anastasia (the clone) should also prepare to make money.

"Well, Master, with such a huge advantage, making money would be incredibly easy. But the crux of the matter is, if I have to go through you every time I travel through the world, wouldn't you find it troublesome?"

"It's very troublesome, extremely troublesome. I copied yours because I didn't want to go through so much trouble."

"Even if it wasn't for this kind of thing, the master would still copy the Lun family, right?"

Anastasia rolled her eyes at me.

"Regardless of identity or appearance, I can't see the possibility that my master wouldn't copy me."

She actually dared to be so disrespectful to her master. Without saying a word, I jumped on the horse again and pressed Anna, who was originally lying on my chest and talking to me, under me again.

Anastasia bit her lip and spoke again after a moment, "Otherwise, I'll just make money in this world. I'm sure I can satisfy Master's needs. Although I'm curious about Master's world, fulfilling Master's wishes is the mission of the Lun family."

"Don't worry about it. I will grant you the authority to freely travel between the real world and this world from zero."

"Huh? Is this okay?" Anastasia widened her eyes.

"Sure. You can also bring along anything you want."

I gave Petra the authority to travel back and forth between the underground world, the real world, and the zero world. After all, I also need to know the information about the underground world at any time so that I can know whether there is a mansion to live in.

"If that's the case, then there's no problem."

Anna wrapped her slender legs around me, gritted her teeth, and spoke with a slight tremor.

But I felt that her trembling was still not enough. After all, she actually had the mind to speak, which was simply an insult to me.

So, let’s put aside the issue of making money. Before Firut, Petra, and Sakura came over, I gave Anna a good lesson in this hotel room.

"Teacher, what a jerk..."

Sakura said helplessly.

Felt had already thrown the cloak that covered his entire body onto the ground and went straight to the bed.

"Master, I came here wearing this formal attire on purpose."

Turning to look at Firut who was kneeling on the bed, yes, she really came in the formal attire she wore on the day of the royal meeting.

Heart pounding.

Without hesitation, I took Firut into my arms, and then had her lie on top of Anna in her formal attire.

Sometimes, women look better with clothes than without clothes!

At this moment, I deeply understand this truth.

Well, I've known this truth for a long time.

The one who made me realize this truth was our costume design master, well-known director, and number one Sakura chef, Ms. Tomoyo Daidoji.

The various clothes she designed for Sakura were simply amazing.

Tomoyo and I often communicate with each other, and we both share an interest in Sakura's dressing up.

Oh no, it’s a common interest among the three of them.

The same goes for the clone Chiyo.

For example, the clothes that the clone Sakura is wearing now are made by the clone Tomoyo.

Shoes too.

A pink and white short-sleeved dress with a puffy skirt that is short in front and long in the back, a pair of slender legs are displayed in front of the eyes, and the red shoes and red leg straps are a perfect match. The whole person is as beautiful and sexy as a freshly blooming flower.

...Is it a bit too much to say sexy?

It doesn’t matter.

Sakura is very sexy when she grows up.

After a while, I leaned against the headboard of the bed while holding Sakura gently in my arms and asked Petra, "Petra, how's the situation over there?"

"It went quite smoothly. Firut was so impressive! The swordmaster Reinhardt was completely subdued by Firut."

“What do you mean by submission?” Felt, her dress soaked with sweat, curled her lips. “That guy only supports me as a knight because he thinks I have royal blood. He doesn’t even have a single opinion of his own. He simply chooses to be loyal to me because the Astraea family has been loyal to the royal family for generations. Someone who allows himself to be manipulated by others and has no sense of self is worse than a master.”

“…Why do I feel like you’ve belittled me in passing, Felt?”

"No, that's the master's illusion. Look, I came to your house wearing those troublesome clothes that made your heart flutter just to please you."

"...If I continue to delve deeper, I feel like the evaluation will be even lower, maybe even lower than Reinhardt's, so I'll just treat it as an illusion."

“It was all an illusion.” Felt rolled over and climbed up, laying on my shoulder and smiling. “Don’t doubt our replicas’ feelings for our master. After all, that’s the meaning of our birth. But everyone is free to have their own opinions on the master’s lifestyle, right?”

"What's wrong with my lifestyle? Is there something wrong with it? I just want to eat well and sleep well. Is that wrong?"

I feel deeply wronged. If I don't make good use of this ability, I will be punished by God!

“No one thinks the Master is wrong. I think I’m quite remarkable.” Felt tilted her head slightly. “You have such power, yet you only want to satisfy such a small desire. And that desire is satisfied by us, the replicas created by the Master. I can’t compare to that kind of self-control. If I had such power, I would have completely transformed the entire world to my liking.”

“Everyone pursues different things.” I tried to comfort Felt, “For a man like me who thinks with his lower body most of the time, the pursuit you despise is what I want most!”

Wait, it suddenly occurred to me that something seemed wrong.

"If I had this kind of power, I would have completely transformed the world to my liking."

For a moment, I fell silent.

After a while, I whispered, "Feirut, are you seriously planning to compete with Emilia for the throne?"

Felt smiled seriously, "Is that okay, Master?"

"call……"

I let out a long breath and shook my head helplessly.

"It's up to you. I won't interfere with your freedom. But I'm here with Emilia. I'm seriously helping her, so don't think you can win her over. Of course, I promise I won't use orders to defeat you."

"I really love the Master the most!!"

“Ah! Felt, you’re going too far!”

Felt pounced on her and pushed Sakura aside. It was really too much. No wonder even someone as gentle as Sakura pouted in anger.

But I accepted her.

This girl has become more attractive.
