Kyros walked out of the Chamber of Enlightenment and observed the progress within the Temple grounds.


    The entire mine had been used to deploy the Temple. But as the location was only temporary, the team did not construct more walls or alter theyout in the new ce where the Temple was deployed.


    But even then, the weapons and things that Hunter had acquired these past two days had transformed the emptyyout of the Temple Grounds as weapons and massive metal shields,rge ballistic weapons, and even a catapult were ced on the side.


    Surprisingly, all of these were added as part of the Temple Grounds and would be drawn in and drawn out. Because of this, Hunter and his team decided to attack more and further improve the fortification of the Temple.


    Hunter and his team had begun to attack the nearby fortresses and caravans in the area. They took advantage of the fact that no one had heard of them yet and swiftly attacked various caravans that traded weapons, and they amassed these captured siege weapons in the Temple Grounds.


    But Kyros paid no heed to all of this. There was just something strange happening within the realms of Fate.


    "Why did it disappear? And all of a sudden?" Kyros was confused.


    "Kyros. Did you feel it? I can''t sense Fate." Mechiel emerged from the Library of Nephilim, where she was studying through various cultivation materials.


    "Yes. Ugh... Fate is cruel. If she wants us to get stronger, she should give us more time and freedom to move about."


    "Lord Kyros!" Scarlet sent a message.


    "A powerful person is headed inside Middle. It''s an elite team from the High Lands! I think it''s someone connected to the king of nesworld!"


    "That powerful? Did Uncle fight them?"


    "No. I made them go to Middle to meet you. I revealed myself ording to Foresight''s direction."


    "To deal with the darkness in here, I believe. These past few days, I have felt unrest in the Undying Lands. Some powerful being somehow snuck in and made residence there. I''m guessing it''s someone from the Nethends. And now, someone from the Hignds.


    "Lord Kyros. I think It''s my fault that Foresight and Fate have be silent. But it seems it was..."


    "It was a cruel trick of Fate. She did this to create Neutral. That way, the very power she bestowed for us to grow can''t be used. I think Grandfather''s performance surpassed her expectations that she must temporarily halt Foresight to deceive us into a trap." Kyros deduced.


    "Shall we halt our advances?" Hunter messaged.


    "No. Continue. This team that is headed here will take a few hours at most. Finish whatever task you have and regroup here. I will have to go and meet this person. How strong is this person?"


    "She imed to be a Princess of some sort."


    "Hm? Is it Listrel Protos Endoxos? Princess of the nesworld?"


    "You know of her, my Lord?" Scarlet was amazed.


    "Who is she?" Martha asked curiously.


    Knowledge of the names of those who ruled the Hignds was not known to the people of the Londs. Thisnd was considered a deste wilderness and was not even considered to be part of the kingdoms of Light. Only those at the Minds would of these names.


    And so, not even Martha and the rest of the Steele family knew of this person.


    Kyros had heard of her name and had even seen her in the battles. Before thest battle in the Minds, Listrel died at the hands of a powerful Eldrich demon who devoured the previous Princess of the Nethends.


    Yet, this Listrel showed great valor and did her family proud by defeating such a powerful creature. That woman was so strong that not even Kyros could have beat her at his peak back then.


    "She is the Princess of the nesworld. Knowledge of her in the Minds ismon. I know of her through Cminus."


    "Was it wise for me to send her to you?" Scarlet asked.


    "Yes." Kyros answered. If he were to save the neworld and stop the massacre, he needs to meet Listrel.


    "Honestly, it''s good that I meet her as early as now. This will really shake up the future." Kyros secretly called out to Cminus.


    "But why did your sensing of Fate disappear?" Cminus asked.


    "It''s obviously a trap. But see how Fate arranged it? I cannot ignore this. Right now, we don''t have any hope of fighting a Crown or a Conqueror. I''ll need her help as early as now. If I get her favor, I''m confident that the Londs won''t fall unless the Eldrich appear." Kyros dered.


    "Everyone. This could be dangerous. Our sess has been so much that Fate must be nning something crazy. So be wary on your missions." Kyros gave his orders, and everyone passed the message to their respective teams.


    "Lord Kyros. I''ll go with you." Mechiel spoke.


    "This is too dangerous."


    "You''re meeting a woman. I already have Scarlet to deal with, and now this. Besides. I feel that Scarlet has something nned."


    "She won''t try to kill me."


    "Yes. But she ns to kill my future. I can sense the wariness of the Blood Cmity. Her hatred for Scarlet is based on fear. I think... Scarlet could seed in taking you from me even if you don''t want to. I''ll have to fight for you too..."


    Kyros was surprised at Mechiel''s words.


    "That makes sense. I think I understand Scarlet''s n. So I guess you should go. But, I should not be too confident. Scarlet has the power of a God. She can alter reality and the future itself. So you may need to fight for this. And me as well."


    Mechiel smiled.


    "Thank you, Lord Kyros."


    And so, the two left.


    Outside of Middle, Aron had already exined to Martha what Scarlet did. But surprisingly, Martha did not say rat Scarlet out!


    "You didn''t say anything." Aron was surprised at Martha''s reaction.


    "I have a feeling that the Blood Cmity will be an ally through this." Martha smiled.


    "Oh? Her pride and loyalty to Destiny is the only thing that stops her from loving Lord Kyros. And so, we hit her where it hurts the most—her pride. I understand what Scarlet wants. It''s a plot to keep Mechiel and Lord Kyros together. But the fact that Fate disappeared proved that whatever this is, it is Fate''s will. So we can know for certain that this test is for Lord Kyros''s benefit. But, it will create great trouble for Kyros, and Mechiel will surely be with him. Only through conflict and dangers like this can love truly blossom. For the Blood Cmity, her emotions will be spurred. With more beautiful and powerful women by Lord Kyros''s side, her pride won''t take it, and she will allow Mechiel to indulge in more expressions of love."


    "Expressions of love? You mean...?"


    "Yes. They will smash."


    "A rather vulgar expression, my dear wife!" Aron chuckled.


    "Husband. We already had our fun. But Lord Kyros, who is head-over-heels with Mechiel, yearns for this, and the submissive Mechiel would have weed it. But she hasn''t allowed Lord Kyros to touch her."


    "Are we seriously talking about my nephew''s sex life?" Aron was confused.


    "Since it involves a potential strong ally, we have to. Do you know why Mechiel hasn''t allowed Lord Kyros to touch her?"


    "Easy. The Blood Cmity''s heart will fall for Kyros if they do. It''s the Blood Cmity that''s stopping this."


    "Exactly. Scarlet used her Wish to create a hindrance. She knows that it''s only a matter of time before something happens. But this arrangement also will create tension. The Blood Cmity may force herself to do it."


    "So they''ll smash?"


    "They can''t. Not with Princess Listrel around."


    "What about some harem action?"


    "This is not that kind of novel."


    "Bummer."


    "You''re talking to your wife."


    "I-I was referring to my disappointment to the missed happiness of my nephew, your lord, and the hope of Steele and this world."


    "In any case, the main concern is that the Blood Cmity''s pride will be a challenge. This is actually necessary. And while nothing may happen for a time, if the Blood Cmity sees Kyros being taken, she might act."


    "So they will smash?"


    "That''s a possibility."


    "But I don''t understand. When Scarlet talked to Listrel, she said something about Wish. So why is it still a possibility."


    "It was granted. She wished there would be a hindrance to stop Mechiel and Kyros from getting closer. But Fate yed her. The real issue here isn''t Mechiel. It''s the Blood Cmity!"


    "What a clever trick!" Aron was amazed at Fate''s plots.


    "So Fate technically granted Scarlet her wish but also used it as a trap for various possible futures. This is the best route, actually."


    "Still, this sounds envious that Fate is manipting situations and is pushing Kyros to have someone to smash." Aron sighed and had a distant look as he considered thedies that would get entangled with Kyros. The Princess was very beautiful and was equal to Mechiel and Scarlet''s beauty.


    "You''re still talking to your wife. And what''s with that expression?" Martha red.
