Their commission was suspicious.

“That’s possible… Let’s discuss the cost of the portrait rights then.” Chen Luo nodded.

"Hey?"

"World consciousness?"

"World Consciousness Sister, are you still listening?"

"No way, they disappeared the moment we talked about the origin of the world?"

Chen Luo scratched his head.

The world's consciousness is moving way too fast, isn't it? Are you really not going to discuss the issue of portrait rights fees?

Chen Luo's communication with the world's consciousness was not a lie. These Dark Grails were scattered throughout the entire Quantum Sea and could indeed help Chen Luo fight. However... Chen Luo could already mobilize all the dark power using the Key of Erosion.

But there are definitely some benefits.

Besides being able to take the mature Dark Grail away for other uses when needed, Chen Luo can also obtain a small but stable amount of faith power.

The etheric singularity is the core of a world, like the god of a world bubble, and there will always be people who believe in the god.

Chen Luo took this portion of the power of faith with him as payment.

However, these are just meager gains, better than nothing. Rather than relying on these pitifully small amounts of faith power, it's better to look at the adventurers in the distant Paradise, whose faith power is much purer.

I wonder if one day I'll ever see you, with your Corruption Power—one of the top talents in the Dark Arts—radiating holy light and merit.

Although I know talent is just talent, I really want to see the top demoness of the demon realm, feeling humiliated, sitting solemnly on a high platform in a pure white fairy dress!

"..."

Why is this supposedly user-friendly plugin filled with nothing but lewd nonsense?

The return of the last etheric singularity proceeded smoothly without any unexpected events, falling into its rightful place.

Transforming the etheric singularity into the color of the Dark Grail has another advantage: it ensures that the etheric singularity will not be used elsewhere or as a tool for ambitious individuals to achieve their goals, thus adding an extra layer of insurance.

"Is that all it takes to save the world?" Gretchen didn't quite grasp the reality of it.

“Strictly speaking, yes. But in reality, we took away the etheric singularity first, which is like we were about to destroy the world, but then we suddenly realized our mistake and saved the world. So don’t have too high expectations,” Chen Luo reminded him.

“However, boss, making this world bubble exist for a longer period of time is very beneficial to the world bubble itself,” Vita said from the side.

Appropriate praise is one of the essential ways to ensure a promotion and a raise.

"Thank you both for coming with me. What would you like to eat? It's on me." Chen Luo said, pointing to the sign above.

Before they knew it, Chen Luo and the others had arrived at the entrance of Houmu Happy Restaurant.

This restaurant can be considered one of the world's most important facilities. It's normal for it to appear frequently.

"But I just had breakfast..." Gretsch looked at the sign for Houmu Happy Restaurant and was somewhat tempted.

As an artist, cute dolls are also a source of inspiration.

This is called gathering materials.

"Here, a sugar bean to reset your hunger level."

"A restaurant? I'll go if I want, I haven't had breakfast yet." Vita skipped in first.

Chen Luo and Gretchen followed closely behind.

"Ah, it's a human..." Chen Luo heard a familiar voice as soon as he entered the Houmu Happy Restaurant.

Chen Luo paused for a moment without any surprise, and then greeted him skillfully.

"You two order first, I'll pay in a bit. I'm going to chat with my friend." After instructing Greta and Vita, Chen Luo walked over to the two sisters who sat down by the window.

"Karen and Yuexia, how was your day?" Chen Luo approached, but the two sisters were sitting opposite each other, and Chen Luo hesitated about who to sit next to.

In the end, Yuexia subtly moved inside and extended an invitation.

"I'm doing well. I was wondering when you'd come, but I didn't expect to see you here again." Karen smiled.

Karen's spirits are much better than yesterday, perhaps because she no longer needs to be afraid that her sister will hurt more innocent people or to constantly hesitate between her sister and justice.

However, a barely perceptible worry still lingered between Karen's brows.

“Speaking of which, Theresa has been restlessly glancing towards the door since earlier, as if she knew you were coming,” Karen suddenly said, looking at Yuexia who seemed unsure of what to say.

"That's true. Stand users are attracted to each other!"

"Hmm? A Stand user?" Kallen raised an eyebrow.

I've never heard of these words before.

“What I mean is that we are both connected to erosion, so we can vaguely sense each other,” Chen Luo explained.

However, the sensitivity varies in strength. Chen Luo was able to perceive the exact location under the moonlight, and even her body movements and detailed condition.

Under the moonlight, one could only vaguely sense whether Chen Luo was nearby.

This was even without Chen Luo concealing anything.

"The Key of Erosion..." As soon as Chen Luo started talking about this, the previously relaxed atmosphere became heavy again.

Karen looked up at the moon with some concern.

Although Theresa was able to control her blood-sucking urges with the help of Chen Luo's corrosive aura, what would happen without the corrosive aura?

If it weren't for Kallen herself, the Moonlit Night wouldn't have been born into such a dangerous existence due to this taboo—dangerous not only to others but also to Theresa herself.

"Lord Chen Luo, how can I obtain your corrosive aura?" Karen tried her best to ask the most important question in the calmest tone.

"You want to ask about a solution to Theresa's health problems, right?" Chen Luo asked.

“Yes, that’s right.” Karen nodded.

Now, Karen only has two choices: either solve Theresa's health problems or solve Theresa's problems.

Karen doesn't want to choose the second path, so she can only look at the first path to see if it's possible.

"Then why don't you ask Yuexia's opinion first?"

“Theresa…” Karen looked at Yuexia, who had been silent since Chen Luo arrived, gripping her knife and fork tightly and eating her steak in small bites.

Karen wasn't entirely sure why Chen Luo kept calling Theresa "Moonlight," it was probably some kind of nickname, and Theresa didn't seem to mind it.

What worries Karen more than this small matter is Yuexia's current silence, which makes Karen feel uneasy.

It's an intuition, and people in the Kaslana family often have very accurate intuitions.

Karen and Chen Luo patiently waited for Theresa to eat.

After finishing her meal, Theresa obediently put down her knife and fork, then looked up.

“The second wish has been fulfilled, right?” Theresa suddenly asked.

Theresa's second wish was that she wanted to spend a normal day with Karen, just like sisters.

Although Chen Luo arrived earlier today than he left yesterday, time passes faster inside the World Bubble than it does in the bar, so a day and a half has already passed.

“According to the standard of wishes, it has been fulfilled, but if you want one more day, that’s fine too. Whether this wish is fulfilled is up to you, not me,” Chen Luo said.

Or rather, if there were more of these kinds of easy commissions, Chen Luo would be very happy, so there's absolutely no need to be polite.

“One day is enough. Or rather… it’s already enough. Any more and I might not be able to bear it.” Yuexia shook her head.

"Theresa, what are you trying to do?" Karen asked nervously.

"Human, make my sister sit still, don't make a sound, and don't move."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Snap!" Chen Luo snapped his fingers.

Just as Karen was about to make a move, she was immediately bound by an invisible force, which pressed her back into her seat, rendering her unable to move or even speak.

[Tentacle play!]

Very well, user-friendly plugins are increasingly ruining the atmosphere.

Karen's only movable part now is her eyes, so her eyes are very busy, glancing at the moonlight one moment and then pleadingly at Chen Luo the next.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Let me go]: 300 Originium.

It's perfectly reasonable for Kallen to release this Vita, especially since the reward is even higher than Moonlight...

Although Chen Luo usually enjoys completing commissions, there are priorities. If he were to release Karen now, he would be at a loss for words under the moonlight.

"My two wishes have been fulfilled, and now there's only one left." Yuexia turned to the side and looked up into Chen Luo's eyes.

"So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, your wish is probably quite self-destructive, right?" Chen Luo asked.

Because it perfectly fits the character of Yuexia, there was absolutely no suspense.

“…Hmm.” Theresa didn’t think she could easily fool Chen Luo either.

The only one who was really worried about this was Karen, who was completely unable to move.

"But before I make a wish, I'd like to ask a question first," Yuexia said.

"Okay." Chen Luo nodded.

Chen Luo was able to understand Yuexia's state of mind.

The reason why Yuexia is willing to confide in him now is partly because both Chen Luo and Yuexia are related to the Key of Corruption, and partly because of Chen Luo's rescue.

Of course, it's quite natural for Luna, who is half a minor Herrscher of Corruption, to feel a sense of closeness to Chen Luo.

The reason why the third wish is self-destructive rather than about seeking salvation is because of the self-doubt under the moon.

Yuexia possesses a simple sense of good and evil. Although Chen Luo helped to deal with it, can the harm Yuexia has caused to the human world, who has fled to several cities, really be so easily erased?

Under the moonlight, he realized that he was an outcast.

"Human, can you affect me without affecting my sister?" Yuexia asked.

"can."

As Chen Luo nodded, Karen's anxiety became even more apparent.

"Then I'll ask one more question."

"Okay." Chen Luo simply nodded.

"Human...do you think I...am really that bad?" Yuexia asked nervously.

“You like your life now too, right?” Chen Luo suddenly placed his hand on Yuexia’s head.

"Hmm. But... but aren't bad people like me and vampires the ones who should be defeated? So isn't it reasonable for Luo Heng to get the ending he deserves?" Yuexia said, lowering his head.

"You're already better than many people at understanding right and wrong. Did you see that girl who came in with me just now, the one carrying a cup? Her name is Vita, a wicked woman who is utterly wicked and has committed countless evil deeds. Her infamy is so great that it can stop even the most innocent child from crying in the Sea of ​​Quanta..."

"???"

Vita, who had been curiously watching her boss flirt with a younger woman, was completely bewildered after being slandered.

No, boss, you're not hiding anything from people when you talk badly about them?

I live right next door to you.

Besides, I'm not as bad as you say.

Taking a step back only makes you angrier, and holding back only makes you feel like you've lost out.

Vita was furious and slammed her hand on the table as she stood up.

This startled both Karen and Moonlight.

According to Chen Luo, the other party could be described as a wicked and ruthless villain. Is he about to unleash his fury now?

"Waiter, could you go buy me a milk tea from next door? I'll pay extra," Vita said, raising her hand.

"Good guest."

Then Vita sat down again.

Greta, sitting opposite Vita, glanced at her in surprise.

Vita can tolerate this.

Or is it that Vita is wise enough to know that this is just a temporary measure by Chen Luo?

If Vita knew what Gretsch was thinking, she would definitely scoff.
