I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

"Here we go again..."

He sighed softly, his voice filled with helplessness:

"Chris really likes to launch surprise attacks like this."

In the traditional culture of the Graria Empire, women braiding their hair into bracelets and giving them to men can almost be said to be a disguised proposal ceremony.

Once the man puts it on, it is equivalent to accepting the other party's request.

The woman also declares her ownership of the man to everyone in this way.

Lucius tried to pull the bracelet, but found that it was firmly attached to his wrist and could not be removed no matter how hard he tried.

Relying on the difference in strength, he forcibly bound me without asking for my opinion and became invincible.

Is there any king law?Are there any laws?

What’s the difference between this and the primitive people who knocked out anyone they liked and took them into the cave?

Plotina watched this scene quietly from the side, her teeth almost broken with anger.

A wild woman who came out of nowhere and did such a thing first, completely disregarding them.

Octavia also frowned, a look of displeasure appearing on her face.

Although she did not care as much as Plotina about the traditional etiquette of the empire, this obvious provocation was indeed very unpleasant.

On the other side, Lucius continued to try various methods to remove the bracelet.

He tried burning it with dragon flames, and tried physical and magical cutting, but the bracelet was incredibly tough, and no attack had any effect on it.

What’s even more puzzling is that this bracelet really seems to be just an ordinary decoration.

No matter how he used magic and the power of chaos to stimulate it, there was no reaction. It seemed as if it was just an ordinary handicraft woven with strong hair.

"never mind."

Finally, Lucius gave up trying and sighed deeply:

"Let this thing stay with me for now. It won't affect anything anyway."

Even if this is Chris's positioning tool, it doesn't matter. The real me is not as weak and powerless as in the simulation.

As long as she really dares to come to him, she will definitely be the one to be raped.

By then, I'll make sure Chris starts to groan whenever she thinks of Lucius~?

Thinking of this, Lucius showed a very dangerous smile on his face.

Then, realizing the urgency of the next task, Lucius had to break away from his current comfort zone.

He sat up and began to straighten his clothes.

"I must see His Majesty again."

Lucius buttoned his shirt again and said:

"I have something very important to report."

"Are you leaving so soon?"

A look of deep reluctance appeared on Plotina's face, and her eyes were full of grievance.

From her perspective, she had just enjoyed a few sweet moments before Lucius was about to leave.

It felt like I had finally gotten the lemon cheesecake I had been longing for, but I only had time to taste one bite before it was snatched away by Iveliya the next second.

That's desperate.

Looking at Plotina's aggrieved look, Lucius couldn't help but feel guilty.

He gently stroked her cheek, feeling the warmth of her skin with his fingertips:

"I'm sorry, Plotina."

"It's indeed an urgent matter, but don't worry, I will definitely make it up to you next time."

"really?"

There was a glimmer of hope in Plotina's eyes again, and her voice was filled with anticipation.

"of course it's true."

Lucius kissed Plotina's forehead lightly, his lips leaving a brief warmth on her skin:

"Have you forgotten the promise we made that year to never cheat on each other?"

After hearing Lucius's promise, Plotina managed to calm down a little.

She reached out and adjusted Lucius's collar, her movements gentle and delicate:

"Then you should be more careful and don't push yourself too hard."

"If you need help, please remember to tell me."

"what about me?"

Octavia blinked and gave a sly smile:

"Is it appropriate to only compensate the younger sister and not the older sister?"

She still remembered the unfinished business that was interrupted by Plotina.

Sister, you are young and strong-willed, you can hold on for a while longer.

But I am at the age of being as vigorous as a wolf and a tiger, and I cannot delay my tax payment at all.

"Okay, okay, I'll compensate you as well."

Lucius smiled and shook his head, then held Octavia's hand:

"Once I'm done with this, I'll show you the true darkness of the Clovis family."

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it~"

Octavia smiled slightly and gave him an ambiguous look.

Lucius then kissed each sister goodbye.

..................................

In the emperor's study.

Lucius and Corkeus stared at each other, and the room fell into a delicate silence.

The silence lasted for half a minute before it was finally broken by Kokwuss.

"so......"

Kokuus slowly put down the documents in his hand, took off his glasses, and gently rubbed his eyebrows:

"Why are you here again, little brat?"

There was a mixture of doubt and helplessness on his face.

If I remember correctly, this guy has been gone for less than an hour. How come he is back so soon?

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

Lucius said straight to the point:

"I just came from the inner court and obtained some key new intelligence."

Kokwus: ???

When he heard the word "inner court", Kokwus's expression instantly became wonderful.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a dangerous light flashing in them.

Damn it, I specifically reminded this brat not to go to the inner court, but he went there anyway!

You went, but you came to tell me what this means?

Show off your achievements?!

I finally see clearly that you are a rebellious person. Do you really think that I dare not deal with you?

Quack! I'm going to blow your teeth apart!

The temperature in the air seemed to drop by several degrees, and the entire study was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.

Lucius keenly noticed the change in Emperor Lao Deng's mood. Realizing that the situation was not good, he quickly explained:

"Lao Deng! Don't be so anxious!"

"I have a legitimate reason to go to the inner court!"

Lucius spoke quickly:

"I went to Octavia for help and advice!"

"Regarding the Chaos Cult, I need more professional opinions."

"With Octavia's help, I got some new and important clues, so I rushed to report to you!"

"Wouldn't it be better if I just ransom it after I'd done the bad thing? Why would I need to take the risk now?"

Kokwus: ...

Bi Yang, you have a valid point.

Kokwus's anger subsided a little, but his eyes were still full of suspicion.

"What new clues are worth your urgency?"

Kirkwulf put his glasses back on, leaned forward, and folded his hands on the table.

"Regarding the Chaos Cult's goal of turning back time."

Lucius spoke seriously:

"Based on the information Octavia provided, I have reason to believe that the Chaos Cult's target isn't the decline of Helios thirty years ago as we previously speculated."

Lucius then told the emperor in detail the information Octavia had told him.

After listening to Lucius's report, Coccus's expression became serious.

He fell into deep thought again, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the table, making a slight "dong dong" sound.

"Ten years ago..."

Kokuus muttered to himself, a complex light flashing in his eyes:

"That year..."

Ten years ago was the darkest year for Kokwueze.

That year, he lost his beloved wife.

That was the most painful time in his life, and every day was spent in torment.

Whenever I think of it, my heart still aches.

“So much happened that year…”

Kokwus's voice was a little hoarse:

"I couldn't figure out what it was that could have caught the attention of Fate."

He shook his head, as if unwilling to continue dwelling on this topic.

"Forget it, I'll study this problem slowly later."

Kokwus waved his hand and refocused his attention on the issue at hand:

"Now what's more important is, what exactly do you want to do by coming to me?"

He looked directly at Lucius with sharp eyes, his eyes full of wisdom:

"If you just wanted to report this piece of information, you wouldn't have rushed here in such a hurry."

"Tell me, what other plans do you have?"

"Your Majesty is wise. I do have other requests."

Lucius nodded, then directly stated his true goal:

"I hope His Majesty can give me another special authorization."
