The overlord of the gods is interrogating the alien female spy.

　"Yes. Although Kazdel is located just west of Letania, I've been traveling for so many days and still haven't seen it."

　Upon hearing her answer, Chen

　Lingxu didn't press the matter further. This young lich seemed naive and inexperienced, probably sent there for training, much like a bright, clueless, and foolish college student. It was unlikely they'd get any information about Kazdel from her.

　"What's there to eat?"

　"Oh? Are you hungry? I have a box of snacks here."

　Wow, now I can't even keep my own snacks.

　Seeing the little lich's distressed expression, Chen Lingxu was speechless yet wanted to laugh.

　So clear and foolish that it doesn't even make you angry.

　"Take it. Don't say I stole it from you again."

　Chen Lingxu casually grabbed at the air, and through the transformation of matter and the recombination of particles, a box of cosmic candies that were popular in multiple star sectors of the Imperial Federation landed on Emengard's lap.

　"Wow, that's amazing! Is it a spatial Originium Arts? Or alchemy?"

　I've wanted to say this before: the person in front of me has the same type of Originium Arts as her lich, and they're so powerful. No wonder they can toy with her life box so easily.

　Do you know what the fundamental particles that make up matter are?

　"……do not know."

　The candy is so sweet, but... knowledge seems to be more important.

　Who exactly is this person in front of me?

　Miss Lich was very curious.

　Chapter Twenty-Seven: If You Do Not Abandon Me, Amy Will Become Your Teacher

　"And what happens next? Please tell us more, Lord Chen Lingxu! Amy really wants to know!"

　As the knowledge flowed into his mind, Emengard felt as if he were in a novel from Yan Kingdom, listening intently to the teachings of the Sage Confucius, but the other party seemed to have grown tired of talking, or perhaps he was thirsty, and stopped at the most crucial point.

　"Will you understand if I explain it to you?"

　Chen Lingxu regretted showing off his skills. He wasn't cut out to lecture; he was just reciting from the textbook based on his limited understanding. Even so, the information, far exceeding the current scientific level of Terra, still made these studious liches scratch their heads, eager to know more.

　"Please! Lord Chen Lingxu! I'll make Amy do whatever you want! Just tell me what the next section is about..."

　With the worries about the life box resolved, knowledge became the Lich Lady's focus for the rest of her life. If she couldn't hear what was to come... she would be in endless torment for the rest of her life.

　"Knowledge is poison; it should not be passed on lightly."

　"I can become your apprentice! Teacher... please teach me!"

　Annoyed by the lich's noise, Chen Lingxu casually tore off a piece of thin cloth from her body, twisted it into a basic textbook on particle technology from the Imperial Federation translated into Lytanian, and tossed it to her.

　"Take it, take it. It's so noisy."

　"Thank you, teacher!"

　After receiving the textbook, Miss Lich couldn't wait to open it and study it carefully.

　"Uh... um... mmm..."

　Inside the tiny cube, the little lich was engrossed in reading, occasionally jumping up excitedly when she came to a point of enlightenment. Chen Lingxu was contentedly playing with two new toys.

　At the same time, attention was focused on the system that had finally shown signs of activity.

　[...Data loading]

　[Current Status: Astral Creature & Larva, Humanoid]

　[Search milestone: The true birth celebration... data retrieval... complete. Awards will be presented shortly...]

　[Searching for the next stage objective... Judging... Judging complete, new stage objective: ■■ Creation.]

　[Objective Introduction: Time, gravity, and space are the fundamental components of reality. If we can learn to manipulate them, we can unlock and control everything.]

　Well, it was one thing for minor issues to occur in the past, but this time the task itself has become completely unclear.

　After reviewing the target's description, Chen Lingxu checked his own abilities.

　I won't go into the twelve talismans.

　After being shattered by the furnace, the sun was reborn. Time was captured by gravity, and space became the bricks beneath his feet, granting him gravity, one of the four fundamental forces.

　The blast furnace shattered the blazing sun and, under the distortion of gravity, was elevated to become the second fundamental force acquired: electromagnetism, which can more easily transform matter and change particles.

　Of course, as always, we don't know when the reward for the fourth task will arrive.

　And... what does it mean to control everything?

　Isn't he already in control of everything?

　Chen Lingxu pondered for a moment.

　Even considering his current power, he is still two key gaps away from truly controlling everything.

　Perhaps the next reward will be related to this.

　Having sorted things out, Chen Lingxu focused his attention on the little lich in front of him who was again trying to lure him with chocolates while standing on tiptoe.

　He had a great time with Precys over the past decade, and God also had fond memories of it, but ultimately, a mechanical body is different from a human body in the most important way.

　Hormones... Now, under the influence of hormones, he finally tasted the feeling of being dominated by his second brother and his eldest brother again.

　Although it may cause a loss of some rationality, it is that sense of impact that gives people the feeling of 'I am truly alive'.

　"Huh? Teacher..."

　"When did I say I wanted to take you as a student? And don't you already have a teacher?"

　"Can we only have one teacher?"

　Emengard tilted his head.

　"Of course there are no restrictions, but I will not accept Ping as a student."

　"Huh?! You're going to use a knight too?!"

　"

　Like pulling a ball of yarn, Chen Lingxu swayed the little lich back and forth in front of him. His fingertips wrapped around a strand of her thread, and with a slight pull, the lich was forced to lean back.

　"I can't read anymore...Teacher Chen."

　"Then I'll look at it when I'm done with my work. Or... the sooner I finish my work, the sooner I can start studying, Amy."

　"Hmm... okay, alright..."

　Sigh... Oh well, it's still learning something. Whatever the knowledge, it's better to have more than you can chew, but having more skills is never a bad thing.

　But after only a short period of active study, Emengard found it difficult to concentrate as intently as when studying books.

　"Ugh... Why is it that when I bend over, I can learn more deeply?"

　"What's the secret behind this kind of regular movement?"

　"This, this feeling is... the singularity... knowledge... flowing into my brain!"

　Satisfied, Chen Lingxu released the little witch's silken threads. Seeing her completely absorbed in knowledge, he shook his head and then put her life box in his mouth, savoring it slowly like candy.

　"Gulp... Lord Chen Lingxu... could you please stop playing with my life box...?"

　The dual impact on her soul and body nearly drove the clear-headed, foolish lich lady to madness.

　"What, you don't like it?"

　"...Of course I don't like it."

　But the resistance was futile. After Chen Lingxu whistled twice while holding his own life box, Emengard twitched slightly and could no longer rise.

　"what……"

　When the lich girl woke up again, she found herself being held in the other person's arms like a child... To be honest, wasn't that a bit too intimate? Considering the timeline, they'd only known each other for less than a day...

　And what's more!

　"Oh no! Where did the little cube go?"

　Without her control, it wouldn't be good if the little cube ran around everywhere on this land.

　"What's all the noise about? I've already made it stop."

　Chen Lingxu had just enjoyed his first comfortable sleep in ten years when he was woken up by the little lich's antics. Naturally, he slapped him across the face, causing Emengard to tearfully clutch the drum and fiddle with the small cube.

　"Hmm... um... this direction should be right, right?"

　Having confirmed the direction, Emengard restarted the small cube and then sat on the man's lap as she had yesterday.

　The internal space of the small cube is still too small, but her skills are not yet proficient enough. If the space is too large, it will only be more difficult to control.

　Looking at the man who had already skillfully placed his hand on her leg and slowly explored it, Emengard thought that if she continued to learn from him, she might be able to become better in this area.

　But this guy doesn't like his body type... Sigh, does she really have to compromise her aesthetic sense for the sake of knowledge?

　How much longer until we reach Kazdel?

　"Ah... probably a day or two more."

　One or two days...

　Emengard looked at the spot the other person was pointing to and felt that he would probably be thoroughly corrupted by strange knowledge in the next two days.

　Chapter Twenty-Eight: The New Kazdel

　A brand new city sprang up on the barren land.

　Kazdel has even developed a small industrial system, transforming into a mobile city.

　Although Kazdel has fewer mobile plots and a smaller settled population compared to other countries, it truly deserves to be called a mobile city.

　With its massive and complex tracked mechanism, and a large platform constructed of steel, it roars as it moves, leaving only a trail of crushed earth on the ground.

　"Theresa, you still have a lot to take care of, you can't rest yet."

　A Sarkaz swordsman with short, pink and white hair entered the Demon King's palace and found the Demon King's sister lounging on the table like a dried-up salted fish, slacking off.

　"Oh, it's Therese... I want to rest for a bit... I'll get up soon."

　If it were someone else, she would have to stand up straight and maintain the majesty of a demon king, but since it was her sister who came, she could relax a little.

　After all, they are still sisters.

　"The lich's messenger has arrived."

　"what!"

　The Peach Demon King, who had been lazy just moments before, suddenly stood up. However, because she moved too quickly, she didn't have time to unfasten the small chair, which ended up getting stuck behind her waist and lifting her up along with it.

　"Have they arrived yet? Who did the Lich send? Has anyone gone to meet them?"

　"Calm down, Theresa."

　Therese pressed her sister's shoulder and waited until the chair hit the ground before answering her questions one by one.

　"The shapeshifters told me they had just entered the city. There were two of them, a man and a woman, wandering around Kazdel, seemingly wanting to see what had changed there."

　"Hmm...that's good too. Only when they see our Kazdel and the changes in our Sarkaz with their own eyes will they be more willing to pay for our ideals."

　Theresa took two deep breaths to calm herself down, and then began to think about whether she should go and pick up the other person.

　"I'll go. You are, after all, the Demon King..."

　“No, Therese. Just because I am the Demon King, it is I who should go. Our lich friends have gone through so much trouble to come all the way from Letania, how can I, the Demon King, not go to meet them in person?”

　"...Okay. Let's go together."

　Therese looked at her righteous-minded sister and didn't expose her idea of ​​slacking off and going out for some fresh air. Instead, she sat...

　She'd rather spend her days reviewing documents than do extra practice.

　"..."

　Walking through this city, the paving stones on the streets are still made of stone, and the buildings on both sides are mostly houses made of a mixture of metal and stone.

　Emengard held a small notebook in his hand, looking around as he walked, taking notes as he went.

　"Although it looks similar in style to some of the large mobile towns in Letania, the overall scene here is still thriving."

　After writing down the information, Emengard turned to look at the silent man beside him.
