Chapter 260

[14th Round] 2000 Years of Love

Its time to get started!

A feature of the USF race was the subjugation of heroes.

To escape from the Fantasy World, I just needed to absorb all the younger heroes who would dare confront the former MAX-Cla.s.s Hero.

Hey hubby, do you really think itll be that simple?

I didnt say it would be easy.

I didnt know how long it would take.

I had already managed to absorb most of the heroes from the First Heros house, but even that wasnt enough to make even the smallest hole in the system.

I couldnt even begin to imagine how many heroes it would take to defeat it.

I didnt have to think about it to know my situation wasnt ideal.

However, I would never let these obstacles stop me. I wouldnt be able to sleep well until I hit my father-in-law for leaving his business and his cowardly daughter with me.

Sharp outbursts of anger, loss of appet.i.te, insomnia, constipation, xerophthalmia

Because of him, I gained so many illnesses!

You claim to be sick, yet you still have the strength to torment your wife!

That requires a different strength.

I had heard that ones s.e.x drive increased when in a difficult position.

Dont misunderstand my words about absorbing heroes. Theres no point in causing senseless harm. The Fantasy Worlds system is now run by the First Angel, which means if you want to take away her power, youll need to win the heroes over to your side.

I had to win those idiots to my side?

Elaborate.

You and my aunt have an almost equal position. The Angel comes first, then the Demon Lord. Together, you two are supplying this world with Divinity and Dark Energy. Unlike my father, who was considered a criminal, youve become the largest investor of this school.

Hoho!

Largest investor! Interesting t.i.tle.

Before your rise, my aunt was the only investor and majority shareholder, but now I have part of her power over the system. You, as my husband, also became a shareholder when you invested in the inst.i.tution.

Interesting

Before I was kidnapped by the vile members of the teaching staff, I was just a student. An innocent soul who didnt know anything about society yet!

Therefore, I wasnt as well versed in all these promotions and distribution of rights.

Heeheehee! Drug Hero, are you a techie?

Shut up, Addicted Spirit. Go on, my cowardly wife.

Ahem. In such a situation, the companys shareholders can decide who will be the CEO. However, this is a school. Both its students and teachers are considered shareholders. The faculty members are followers of my aunt, making it difficult to convince them, which is why well target the students instead.

In other words, we need to win over the heroes?

Then it wasnt as hard as I thought it would be! Students knew better than the teachers what the soul of their schoolmates craved, after all.

And in the past, I was a hero. I understood them more than most ever would.

Dont expect everything to go that smoothly. As you already know, Divinity accompanies the heroes throughout their journey in different forms such as the Holy Sword, Divine, Blessing, Relic, Divine Dragon. It doesnt matter if theyre sleeping or fighting. My aunt sponsors their days. On the other hand, they have a clear awareness in their heads that the Demon Lord is villainous.

I see your point.

We still had a long way to go.

But these difficulties were nothing compared to my 1st round.

The local savages forced me, a pathetic schoolboy who couldnt even catch a c.o.c.kroach, to kill the malevolent Demon Lord.

No matter how I thought about it, it was an unreasonable demand.

But I was able to handle everything within a decade!

Of course, it wasnt a pleasant trip!

There were times when I had to run away because I was losing to some villager or when I had to drop my weapon and hide in the woods out of fear of goblins. I was beaten by a fragile female mercenary, after which I spent the whole day in bed, covered with a blanket.

But I didnt give up. I saw it through to the very end.

Whats with that look?

My heads just spinning from the mere thought that the teaching staff and this entire education system have turned an innocent boy into the successor of the Demon Lord and my insidious husband

None of that was my fault.

I know. Its the corrupted education systems.

I didnt like it, but Ssosia and I looked at each other and smiled.

Our thoughts coincided.

***

Obviously, there was no dimension of Fantasy that didnt have a Demon Lord.

Thanks to the eyes and ears of my clones, I was able to find out the location, plans, and condition of all the heroes that hadnt graduated yet.

My friend Sieg was one such example.

This simply cannot be! Sylvia is my woman! She should only look at me! Why is she flirting with male humans when she hated them as the leader of the elves?! How could this happen?!

Unfortunately, he was unable to adapt to the 5th curriculum.

Sir Hero, is there a problem?

There is! Listen to this, Lanuvel. Elf Princess Sylvia isnt in the slave market and doesnt even have a spirit! I dont like the way she played with them!

Ooh I would like you to come to your senses. Your strange behavior is delaying the trip.

No! Im okay!

Since I became the First Hero to kill the Demon Lord instead of my senior, changes took place in the Fantasy World.

Some aspects of it remained the same, though.

The Dumpling Kingdom was still located on the Central Continent, and Lanuvel, pretending to be cute, still summoned heroes.

But that was the end of it.

Each of the 12 floors of the palace had flush toilets that werent unis.e.x but divided for males and females.

There was fresh air in the royal garden, which once smelled of ammonia, and the maids, who had finished cleaning early, sat on the benches and chatted nonchalantly.

I decided to eavesdrop a little.

Sir Hero Sieg.

Just call me Sieg

Okay, Sieg!

Arent you adjusting a little too fast?! The Lanuvel I know isnt like this!

This isnt the time to be fantasizing about ransoming Princess Sylvia from the black market! The Demon Lord has risen! She replied hastily.

Dont worry. If I wanted to, I could kill him in six years. Sylvia is much more important right now. She hates humans, yet she now wanders their land. To add salt to my wound, she also decided to flirt with the prince! None of this makes sense!

There is nothing strange about that. Princess Sylvia ran away from home to marry a human, after all.

What?!

That was surprising for me too.

The ruler of the elves can only marry those of their own race to preserve their bloodline. Because of that law, there is now a psychological struggle between Prince Nasus and Princess Sylvia as they both attempt to avoid succeeding to the throne. However, when it became clear that Sylvia would still inherit the throne, she immediately ran away from home.

She allegedly now traveled through human kingdoms and seduced young princes.

The pitiful Third Elf King Elfheim had seemingly completely changed the culture of his people while he ruled the kingdom.

Now they were friends with humans!

Perhaps they might even be on greater terms than that

This simply cannot be

My friend Sieg looked as if the end of the world had come.

I dont want to upset you, but if you want to marry Princess Sylvia, you must at least become a prince first. Right now, youre just a boy who cant even control his s.e.x drive at the sight of elves.

Arent you too rude?!

Lanuvel finally said something good.

Heroes like him could never defeat me, the Demon Lord, due to the limitations that bound those stuck in the regression loop.

Race: Arch-Human

Level: 19

Job: Hero (Experience 500%)

Skills: Male Strength Z, Interpretation A, Sword Mastery E, Endurance F, Magic Power F

Status: Depression

Upon his regression, Sieg was left with only one transcendental skill, Male Strength Z, but the rest of his skills disappeared, which were then replaced by new ones.

Male Strength Z was only useful in bed, and it also required that he had a woman he liked with him.

It was still better than having no skills at all, though.

Isnt it better not to have them at all? He doesnt even have a woman he can use it with, and the more transcendental skills a hero has, the harder it becomes for them to upgrade other skills to Z-rank. Wouldnt it have been better for him if all of his skills changed and he started over from scratch?

Ssosias a.s.sessment of Sieg as she watched him with me was realistic and merciless.

As expected of a typical married lady with a cruel character.

Cowardly hubby, dont upgrade that stupid skill no matter what. Its already hard for me to deal with you as it is.

I wouldnt have done it even if you begged me.

That aside, I noticed Sword King Alex took the initial training of the Heroes into his own hands, was nowhere to be seen.

Where did he go?

Visit ReadNovelFull[.]com for extra chapters.

As if on cue, Lanuvel, amid scolding Sieg, suddenly opened up a new topic.

Follow me. I want to introduce you to a companion.

Is it Alex?

Oh? How did you know?

Because its always him.

I didnt know how much he had progressed, but he had an expression similar to a hardened B-rank Hero.

Completely arrogant!

I see Then guess the other person. She pouted.

Theres someone else? Thats new

Shes an incredible beauty!

Gorgeous? Oh! Sylvia!

No! Stop thinking about Princess Sylvia already. Someone like you shouldnt even dream of her. Youre correct in guessing that shes not of the human race, though.

They walked outside the royal palace as they talked to each other.

Lanuvel swung her hips in different directions as usual, and Sieg walked behind her, smiling broadly.

Where were they going?

Not long after, they arrived at the house of some wealthy people, a luxurious mansion with a s.p.a.cious garden and a pond.

I couldnt believe that Alex lived in a place like this. A cave was much more suitable for a savage like him.

Sir Alex! Its me, Lanuvel! Open the door, please!

HM? What brings you over, Miss Lanuvel? Please wait a bit. Let me just dry my hands The Sword King immediately replied from within his abode.

After the click of a lock was heard, the door opened and appeared

Oh! Oh my G.o.d!

I think Im going to go blind

Why? Is this the first time youve seen a man in an ap.r.o.n? All you do is fight, so I doubt youd be able to appreciate such a scenes true worth. Househusbands are quite popular now, you know.

Who did she take me for?

My father often used to cook in an ap.r.o.n instead of my mother, who had trouble cooking d.a.m.n!

Did you just say your mom cant cook?

I never said that

Hmm My cowardly wife looked at me intently.

Ignoring her, I returned my attention to Alex.

The way his white ap.r.o.n hugged his bulging muscles made him look pathetic.

I didnt know how women could like such a worthless look.

I then looked at his stats.

Race: Celestial Human

Level: 999+

Job: Sword G.o.d (Sword Mastery = Divinity )

Skills: Sword Mastery G, Eternal Youth ZZ, Love Z, Cooking MAX, Cleaning MAX

Status: Blessing, Happiness

His Sword Mastery had reached the rank of the divines. It certainly came across as a shock, but that wasnt what caught my attention the most.

Eternal Youth ZZ.

Thanks to this skill, he could now live a long time without ever growing older.

And the rest of his skills, except for Sword Mastery, were all household-related. Almost all of them were MAX-ranked, too.

It seems hes lived agelessly for two millenniums, Ssosia concluded, glancing at Alex.

Is that possible?

For as long as a skills rank is high enough, then nothing is impossible. In the past, the Heros companions my dad killed were resurrected without memory to help new heroes.

However, the reality of this era that treated me as the main character was different.

Although there were some companions who drowned in the sea due to an accident, there was no ma.s.s extermination, as in the original story.

Therefore, it wasnt that strange for some of them to learn how to oppose natural death and live for over two millenniums.

But that was just a theory.

Two thousand years was a long time.

There was a high probability that a time would come when everything they did would feel boring, at which point theyd most likely want to retire. How could they overcome that problem?

The answer was obvious.

Sieg, as you know, this is Alex. And the beauty hiding behind him is another companion. Her name is Chicken. I couldnt find that words meaning even among the ancient languages, but apparently, that was what her past owner called her.

Chicken

Knowing its true definition, Sieg began to look even more confused.

I reacted similarly.

What kind of person would give her such a stupid name?

Alex doesnt like her real name, so he calls her Snow Woman. For your own safety, Sieg, you better call her that too. Lady Snow Woman? You can come out behind him. Although Sieg looks despicable, he is the Hero chosen by G.o.d.

The same Snow Woman I knew peeked out from behind the Sword Kings back. And instead of hands, she waved her wings.

h.e.l.lo! As Lanuvel said, I am the Snow Woman! My full name is White Chicken. I like the name my previous owner gave me, but Alex doesnt like it, so please call me Snow Woman. Since I have no hands, he takes care of me.

The Snow Woman smiled sweetly, flapping her snow-white wings. Sieg, witnessing her beautiful face, looked fascinated.

But it didnt last long.

Kh?!

Alex grabbed him by the throat and shouted.

Dont stare at my wife, whom I have taken care of for the past two millenniums, Hero, unless you want me to rip out your shameless eyes.

The Sword King was a married man in the 5th curriculum.
