A decade passed.
Human Continent.
Standing atop a cliff and staring at the burning village below, a warrior clad in tattered clothes gazed at it.
His dark eyes shined with a dull hue and his unkempt hair swayed with the breeze.
Sighing deeply, the figure said, "I don't know what to do anymore."
Though he may appear to be looking at the burning village, the focus of his eyes was somewhere else.
[Ding!]
[The apocalypse is approaching!]
[Ding!]
[The apocalypse is approaching!]
[Ding!]
[The apocalypse is approaching!]
[Ding!]
[The apocalypse is approaching!]
[Ding!]
[The apocalypse is approaching!]
The line of texts in front of his eyes annoyed him to no end. He couldn't eat, sleep, or even make love peacefully.
The looming danger and the stress of the apocalypse had always kept him on the edge all these years.
"How many years has it been? Almost three and a half centuries?"
"I've not cin contact with that clan and never even bothered to change anything, yet why… why have things turned out to be like this?"
Sighing again, the man softly said, "Whatever. I'll just do what I can. It's not like I can control all the variables. Anyway, system, status."
Upon his command, a blue screen appeared in front of his eyes.

Lucas heaved a deep sigh once again.
"Miser Dungeoneer huh… well… it's not wrong. There has been nothing but setbacks after setbacks in the dungeons. Who would've thought they have turned out to be so dangerous. Anyway, the title is not nice, but at least it providessluck during times of absolute crisis where my life's on the line."
Shaking his head, he then muttered with a hint of regret, "This isn't the worst of things I've faced…"
"…To this day, I still regret not properly planning and killing that kid. Even though I gained Water, Space, Light, Life, and Death elements, and have a whopping ten elemental affinities, it's still nowhere close to those monsters."
"…I have done what I can, to the best of my abilities. Reaching Saint Rank in under 300 years is already astronomical. There's barely anyone that can reach such a stage. If I'm not wrong, in my past life, I reached Saint Rank at around 1500 years of age…"
"…Whatever. What matters now is the apocalypse. Tis the only constraint I have. I do not know what he's doing, but I have a feeling that I'm being left in the dust."
Lucas extended his hand out towards the skies, as if trying to grasp the sun in his palm.
"No matter what I do, I can't reach that monster's level. But it's okay. If the monster doesn't exist… then there won't be any apocalypse."
With determination flashing in his eyes, the dullness was replaced with anticipation.
Looking in a certain direction, Lucas's lips parted and said the words he had never once said before,
"…Vampire Prince… it's about twe have an encounter…"
…..
Royal Castle, Nightingale.
Lith was on the rooftop, sipping on tea and going through the general news.
The halo on his head had intensified in color during this time, becoming such a shade of dark that even its shadow wasn't formed.
The world was in turmoil again. This time, in a much more dire state.
While he was browsing through the news, something suddenly made him turn his gaze in a particular direction.
"What… what was that?"
He couldn't particularly catch on, but it felt as if someone had poked his head.
Blinking at this strange occurrence, Lith shrugged.
"Maybe it's people's karma hittingback or something."
While his thoughts were as such, in one of the courtyards of the castle, Lilith, who was walking in the hallway with Qingyue behind her, suddenly stopped.
Her pointy ears perked up and she turned her gaze in a certain direction.
Blinking in a similar manner like Lith, Lilith thought out loud, "Who was that?"
"I faintly remember that figure, but can't seem to recall much about him. Hm… if I forgot then it wasn't someone important."
With that, Lucas narrowly escaped from having a premature death and was on track to stop the apocalypse again.
A title wouldn't alert any of the higher beings. However, if it was being called out by someone or a greater cultivation, then the higher beings, depending on their sensitivity to their names, could feel a gentle tingle on their soul or an outright poking of a needle.
One should not carelessly take names of higher immortals. This was something taught to everybody, and was also one of the biggest reasons for many people's death every year.
The ones that died by this were ranked at a whopping number #25 in Dumb Ways To Die magazine.
Back on the rooftop, Lith sipped on tea and was back to looking at the news.
The corner of his lips were curved up as he stared a particular article.
—News Flash!
—News Flash!
—News Flash!
—The Werewolf King has been gravely injured!
—Pictures of the Royal Family are forbidden to be taken. So we can only show the state of the King's castle. Here it is…!
Lith chuckled. The Werewolf castle was in shambles. Half ruined and half burning.
"I have no idea how he did it, but to defeat a SuprRank while being an Emperor Rank, and also ascend at the very stime, then beat the SuprRank… it's nothing less than monstrosity."
Lith was in a happy mood. The more people ascended, the better it was for him overall.
He then swiped left on the tablet screen and changed the news, as if the Werewolf King almost being beaten to death wasn't significant.
The next news was of the holy war.
The situation had escalated to such a degree that one of the seven sins had made an appearance on the battlefield.
It was the Sin of Wrath, Astaroth, invading into the Angel Continent and causing mayhem.
The Heavenly Emperor was still busy fighting the Demon Queen, so this gave them an opening to go all out.
As it was on the outskirts of the continent, only one Angel King appeared to fight against Astaroth. It was the Angel of Patience, Mydaiel.
If one saw their battle, they would think that an angry bull was fighting against a calm and graceful swan.
Like a berserker, Astaroth continuously sent a flurry of attacks while Mydaiel simply blocked and played along to keep him busy.
The situation of the rest of the Angel Kings and Seven Sins was unknown.
"Well, they should be preparing for a major fight. Surely they aren't just waiting and watching their peers get killed."
Once again swiping left, Lith looked at smore news.
Getting bored by it after a while, he thought out loud, "…All of this aside, I wonder how my wives are doing."
There was nothing that Lith had on him that could help him look at his wives. But, he was sure a certain someone could help.
Putting away the tablet, Lith stretched and made his way downstairs.
Walking in the hallways of his gothic castle, Lith soon found that certain someone.
It was a sexy silverhead with a voluptuous motherly body, walking towards him. Behind her, there was a figure emitting a sweet aroma, almost making Lith drool.
'Tch. I need to do something to resist myself from eating Qingyue.'
Making his way towards his mother, who was already looking at him with a soft smile, Lith said, "I was looking for you."
Lilith covered her mouth and said with a slight gasp, "Oh my… my baby finally remembers his mother exists?"
Lith rolled his eyes. It had only been a decade since he last saw her. And he hadn't gone anywhere outside the castle. No, not even castle… he did not move an inch from the rooftop.
"I don't know about my mother, but I sure do know that I miss my wife and wives."
Lilith chucked playfully. "What is my dear husband seekingfor?"
Lith wrapped his arms around Lilith's waist as he reached her and staring into her eyes, said, "It's been a long tsince I gave any attention to my wives."
Lilith's lips curved up. "Sure has been."
As she said that, Lith moved closer and gobbled up her sweet, cherry red lips. While doing so, he moved and planted Lilith's back on the wall beside.
Qingyue tried to avert her gaze and not look at the scene in front. Although she should be used to this, it still was somewhat surprising to see her Madam and Prince do it out in the open.
Secretly taking her phone out, Qingyue typed a message in a group chat.
+
[Inner Circle]
Qingyue(admin): Refrain from walking in the hallway leading to the Queen's chambers and the Lilly courtyard.
+
As she texted that, suddenly, a notification popped up instantly on her phone.
Her phone was on silent so it did not disturb the Prince and the Queen.

Qingyue put the phone back in her pocket and shook her head. These guys were too lax and informal when texting. That's why she preferred not to talk there. But in case of emergencies like now, it had to be done.
Having her phone placed back in her ring, she turned her head. The moment she did, her face heated up.
"Mhm~… after so long…" Lilith let out a soft moan.
Holding Lilith's leg up and having parted her panties, Lith slowly let his erect cock get embraced by her juicy, warm cunt.
Qingyue was totally taken aback. 'How are they so quick…'
'Just a minute ago they were kissing and now…'
There were sthings nobody could understand.
How did life first appear? What happened in the beginning of the universe? Who were the first immortals and gods?
These were all one of the profound questions that no one had an answer to.
However, at this moment, Qingyue thought, 'Those still pale in comparison to the escalations suddenly happening here. How did this happen…?'
The human maiden could only just think and stare at her Masters from the sidelines.
Lith, who was well aware that Qingyue was beside him, couldn't care less. His dao of shamelessness had peaked after ssecluded cultivation. There was nothing that could shake him!
Right now, having his little brother be enveloped in the wonderland of fluff and warmth, Lith looked at Lilith and asked, "By the way, do you have something that can showwhat my wives are doing?"
Lilith chuckled. "Isn't it unfair to talk about other wives while you're deep inside your main wife's pussy?"
Squelch… Squelch…
Moving his hips and letting slippery wet sounds arise as he spread Lilith's insides, Lith said with a smile, "Yes, it is. But what can you do? I'm an unreasonable husband."
Lilith nodded and wrapped her arms around Lith's shoulders. "That, you are."
The two's conversation caused Qingyue's ears to turn hot red. She did not want to look, but exactly in front of her eyes, she could see the source of the squelching sounds.
The big rod that looked like it would not fit in such a small entrance was penetrating and stretching her madam's flower.
At this moment, Qingyue could not help but think, 'If you can have a conversation… at least look atand dismiss me, Madam, or Your Highness…'
