Chapter 5

"Oh, repairing is more interesting than destroying!" One by one, the holes in the building were fixed and restored to their original state. I felt like I still had the ability to be an architect.

Standing in the square in front of the building, none of the previous repairs were as beautiful as the ones I did.

"The moonlight in the Borderland is more beautiful than in The Divine Realm." Elena suddenly looked up at the sky next to me, her golden hair glowing softly in the pale yellow moonlight, not dazzling at all.

"The Divine Realm doesn't have clouds, so how can it have this hazy moonlight hidden behind the clouds? It's hard to come by." The Divine Realm uses clean energy, using clouds as raw materials. How could it have it? They have all been collected.

"Let me dance for you!"

"Hmm? Why suddenly want to dance for me?" Elena's enthusiasm from earlier disappeared, and she suddenly became so calm. She still wanted to dance for me, which seems... a bit strange. Did her eyes become empty?

"It's been a long time since I danced in front of you!" Elena bent down, performing a dance etiquette towards me, a vintage etiquette. She used to dance under the moonlight in The Divine Realm before the battle of gods and demons. The mood then and now are different. Now, there's a feeling of wanting to possess her, so the appreciation would be different.

"Then please!"

The graceful young lady moved her body with suppleness, her face appearing and disappearing amidst the golden strands of hair, like a hot spring found in the mountains, so warm and even hot.

"Oh dear, she is a Second-stage Contract. Don't think too much about it. Instead, think about how to correct the stubborn girl's thinking and prevent her from getting brainwashed."

"I'm brainwashed, is there a difference between me and you being damaged?"

"Well, upgrading your thoughts can make a turn! Speaking of which, I don't really understand Elena either. Even Yaleth, who is so stubborn, has accepted the fact. Why doesn't she understand?"

"Let me calculate for you. Before the battle of gods and demons, you and I were enemies. She disliked you because you often kept me away from her. She thought you were a bad person. Also, after being reincarnated as Elena, how many demon traitors and my mother did you kill in one night? That was a childhood trauma. Also, think about it, besides Elena, who among the girls around you has seen your bloodthirsty side?"

"Was I that scary back then?"

"Classic horror movie style... can't match your horror."

"I..."

While I was leisurely enjoying Elena's unique dance moves and chatting with the darkness, Elena suddenly turned around by my side. There was a charming fragrance emanating from her body, but suddenly, my eyes caught sight of something sharp in Elena's hand, a faint magical aura that was so subtle it could be ignored.

In the next moment, Elena covered her face with her sleeve and stabbed at my heart with a small dagger.

I was stunned for a moment, but I didn't stand still. My arm instinctively rose, leaning my body forward, and I controlled Elena's hand holding the dagger under my armpit. My palm brushed against the back of Elena's head, making her fall asleep. I opened her collar, and the contract was still there, but the text on it was trembling.

"How much magic did that fake holy dragon do to Elena?"

"Master!" Nofice appeared beside me in a hurry.

"Why did you let Elena leave your side?"

"She is the 'after,' and I have no right to stop her. Besides, your command was to 'protect,' not to 'imprison.'"

"Didn't you notice anything abnormal about her?"

"Until just now, no!"

"Bring Elena back to the room first, then think of a solution."

Elena's memory is messed up. She mistook me for Black, but when did it start to get messed up? When she just woke up, it was still normal. Could it be that I made a mistake when I just broke the prohibition? Or did that person use other magic on Elena? I believe more that he did something bad.

"This person does have the aura of an advanced magic master." The Duke carefully examined the person Gu Yaleu brought back and drew a conclusion.

Gu Yaleu sneered and said, "If this guy can escape from me, then I am a turtle."

"Why does little Lulu call him a turtle?" Lilith asked.

"First, don't call me little Lulu. Second, didn't you see how he just curled up like a turtle and used a diamond as a shell?"

"Elemental structure reconstruction, he is actually quite powerful."

"There are many people more powerful than him."

The Duke thought for a moment. "Sir, you are indeed powerful, but to be on the safe side, we also need a way to restrain him."

"I have a solution." I finally returned to the room where the Duke was. After the alarm was lifted, everyone gathered here.

My solution is to use a "Sealing Demon Knot" to bind his limbs and explain the effect to the Duke.

"Mr. Qin not only has great abilities himself, but also everyone around him is extraordinary."

"I'm young, so please don't call me Mr. Qin. Xiao Yang is fine." If someone has been called Mr. Qin by their own father, they would know how uncomfortable it is.

"Bang!" Suddenly, there was a sound from outside the door.

"Feng, I've come to see you!"

"She's breaking my door again!" The Duke covered his face and lightly complained about the two girls who broke into the room.

Lilith curiously asked, "Which one is your mother?"

"How do you know my mother is here?" With this scene, it looks very familiar, it happens every day in the classroom on the rooftop."

"Don't mention it, my stomach hurts."

"Which one is it?"

"Um, let me see. The girl on the left is my mother, and the one on the right... Guffy?"

"The... the principal? Why does she have silver hair?"

"She must have dyed it twenty years later!"

Guffy in front of me, full of the aura of a young girl, changing from a girl to a mature woman in twenty years, it also makes sense, just the issue of hair color is hard to understand.

"That's your principal, right?" Perra had seen Guffy at the interscholastic competition, but was equally surprised why her appearance hadn't changed in twenty years, but her hair color did.

"Who knows?"

Perra suddenly reacted and asked, "Where's Elena?"

When Elena was mentioned, I felt a headache coming on. "She seems to have some aftereffects, so let her sleep first!"

"Nia, Guffy, how many times have I told you, doors are meant to be opened, not broken!" My father immediately ran to the front of the door and propped up the fallen door.

"I made delicious food for you!" Nia is my mother's name. It doesn't sound like a name from our country, but I really haven't asked where my mother's family is from.

"I made some too!" Guffy pushed Nia aside and handed the tray in her hand to my father's face.

I stood by, marveling at how our principal had once been infatuated with my father. Wenxin's father commented, "If the Duke were to have a son in the future, he would definitely be in the same situation. It's genetic! Mr. Qin, what do you think?"

"Huh?" What a question...

I felt the gaze of the girls around me.

"What are you looking at? He's right!" Strictly speaking, it was the Demon Dragon's inheritance from my father, and then my inheritance from my father. That's how the logic goes.

"Genetic?"

"Lilith, what strange thing have you thought of now?"

"If Principal Guffy's original hair color was silver-white, then her descendants would have a chance to inherit her hair color, right?"

"Oh! What did the biology teacher say?"

"So, whose hairstyle and hair color does she resemble?"

"Like... like Tesha, but they have different last names?"

"Who says you have to have the same last name as your parents to be biologically related!"

That reminded me. Before time was reversed, the Emperor of the Empire had told me that it was highly likely that my father had a bastard child. And I even jokingly said it would be best if it were a sister. Could this be a dream come true?

While we were happily chatting, no one knew what was happening on the other side of Duman's border.

At the Duman Border Command Headquarters, the Chief of Staff and other high-ranking officers sat around with anxious expressions, discussing with each other.

Then, a burly figure walked into the command headquarters, adorned with numerous medals on his chest.

"Commander-in-Chief!" Everyone stood up and saluted.

The man held a document in his hand and slammed it onto the table. All the information transformed into three-dimensional projections, forming a framework of data.

"Who allowed a Divine Rank to participate in this covert assault! Step forward!" The Commander-in-Chief angrily sat at the head of the table.

Among the line of staff officers, a middle-aged man with balding hair and a sallow complexion trembled in fear.

"Is it you?"

"Y-Yes."

"You're relieved of duty. Take him away!" The Commander-in-Chief made a decisive and cold decision.

"I hope everyone remembers that a Divine Rank is not an ordinary soldier. Such mistakes must be eradicated. We will spare no expense to bring back this Divine Rank. I have already submitted a request to the Empire, and soon we will receive very significant news." The Commander-in-Chief did not reveal what this matter was.

"The vacancy in the Divine Rank position will be filled by him!"

As everyone's gaze turned, Tony walked in with the demonic sword in his hand!
