Chapter 1154: Chapter 402: Like a God_2

ε=(′д`*)))

Life is tough, Wayne sighed, recounting the recent hardships.

"I’m not gonna lie to you, I’ve been targeted by the Dark Goddess. My recent days have been less than pleasant. This trip took me not only to the Naturalism Church Headquarters but also to the Dark Church Headquarters, and I fought with a being who’s very likely to become a Subsidiary God."

Wayne’s face showed bitterness: "If you delve into the reasons, it was all the Dark Goddess stirring up trouble. You might not know, but this goddess enjoys ’training’ her subordinates, taking pleasure in their pain. Take the Dark Knights, for example; the more pain they endure, the stronger they become..."

"Because I was too outstanding, the Dark Goddess coveted my body, wanting to turn me into her Subsidiary God. I refused, so she set a powerful enemy against me, forcing me to submit to her ’training’."

Mina was dumbstruck when she heard this, but once she came to her senses, realizing just how dangerous Wayne’s recent times were, having nearly lost his life on several occasions, she immediately put aside her sour grievances, pushed Wayne into a chair, and massaged his shoulders to alleviate his fatigue.

She had the demeanor of a good housewife and mother, but compared to Chris, she still lacked a bit of that matronly air.

Wayne silently made this assessment, hoping that Mina would learn more from her student, after all, the capable should teach, and there’s no shame in that.

"You’ve worked hard, I was in the wrong just now..."

Mina raised her hand to caress Wayne’s face and pulled him into an embrace, her voice tender with concern: "Look at you, you must have suffered a lot, you’ve even lost weight."

Wayne nodded repeatedly. Indeed, he had suffered a lot recently. Anastasia and Saina’s desire to win was too strong, demanding a clear victory in every doubles match, unwilling to lose to their old rivals. Time and again, they didn’t treat him like a person.

Wayne’s heart ached, but he couldn’t say it out loud. Pleaser personalities are like that, always flattering and accommodating others, with even the act of refusal feeling like a huge mistake.

An affliction developed from childhood, he guessed it was something he’d never be able to correct in his lifetime.

Seeing the sorrow on Wayne’s face, as if he had remembered something unhappy, Mina felt extreme pity for him and comforted him with warm questions and laughter.

"It’s okay, seeing you makes me very content, but the things you said just now really hurt me."

"I was wrong..."

Mina repeatedly apologized, promising several unfair treaties, which finally brought a smile back to Wayne’s face: "Hardship aside, danger always comes with opportunities. I’ve narrowly escaped death multiple times and have successfully advanced to becoming a Legendary Mage."

Seeing Wayne downplay the dangers, fearing that she would worry, only choosing the positive things to say, Mina felt even more heartache and held him tightly: "Becoming a Legendary Mage so quickly, it must have been very dangerous, wasn’t it?"

"Thinking of you, I managed to pull through."

Mina’s eyes reddened with a mix of sourness and sympathy and she leaned in to kiss his face.

Thunder ignited the wildfire, and it became uncontrollable.

The bathroom.

Wayne held the cool white-skinned Moonlight Elf in his arms in the bathtub, his fingertips brushed over her delicate porcelain skin, spreading hints of pink.

Mina squinted her eyes and shifted back to her human form, their temples rubbing against each other, full of tender affection.

"Right, has Dreyne come back yet?"

"..."

Mina gave Wayne a cold look: "What, you’re really setting your sights on Dreyne?"

"Who are you looking down on? I wouldn’t take that kind of dealer even if given to me for free. Here’s what happened..."

"There’s more to it!"

Mina’s eyes lit up, quite interested in the knights’ poker game, then expressed regret: "She’s gone back to the Icebound Continent to switch posts. She can’t return for a long while. Now it’s the Sun Knight Leo’s active time. I heard he came to Lundan some time ago and then disappeared."

Sun Knight Leo came to Lundan?

Wayne’s eyebrows raised in speculation that Leo had come to see his Knight Entourage, the Cushin couple, and... Viley.

In the Inverted World, William became the new Sun Knight. Correspondingly, in the Outer World, Viley was qualified to become the next Sun Knight. Wayne wondered if she had obtained the approval of the Dawn Admonition.

If she did, tsk tsk.

Viley had always been fixated on slaying the Evil Dragon, seeking victory in battle, and personally reclaiming the princess dominated by the Evil Dragon.

In the past, she didn’t have the ability and was constantly overthrown by the Evil Dragon’s swift attacks, surviving only by acting cute. Now with the ability, Wayne was likely going to be quite entertained.

"Boss, you remember the way back?"

At the Detective Agency, Mona sat behind the desk and saw Wayne walking in, she adjusted her glasses.

While doing so, she casually set up a Soundproof Barrier.

"Just arrived, came to see you straight after landing, missed you a lot."

"Hehe."

"Mona, you’ve gotten even more beautiful."

Wayne stepped forward to embrace the secretary, offering a loving gaze, and after a few deep kisses, he sat in the boss’s chair while the secretary snuggled in close.

As for Wayne’s sweet talk, Mona naturally didn’t believe it. She didn’t say much, just inquired if his trip went smoothly.

Wayne spoke differently to different listeners. Besides the opening phrase which he reused, the focus of the conversation varied.

For Mona, who disliked Devils, Wayne focused heavily on the Devil aspect.

"This trip to the Prussian capital, Berlin, I expelled the Demon Kings of Gluttony and Wrath... yada yada yada... destroyed the Devil’s Container within the Abyssal Projection Space, and cleared the hidden dangers of the Hell Gate... babble babble... they were really too strong."

Wayne shared the hardships of his journey, burying his head in his secretary’s embrace: "I’ve worked so hard, you have to give me a reward."

In theory, dealing with Hell Devils of Demon King level should involve logging in the account of Archangel Hexuno.

Indeed, upon learning of the arrival of two Demon Kings on Mortal World, Hexuno was nearly frantic, insisting that Mona step aside, as he had many details Wayne didn’t clarify and wanted to confirm in person.
