Elevator Dimension Line

Just as Tantai Ye made his decision, the alien insect that had just crawled out of the black metal sprang up and pounced at him.

However, before it could even get close to Tantai Ye, it was frozen in mid-air.

The alien insect, without beginning or end, emitted an extremely strange and piercing cry from somewhere, almost like an overclocked sound.

"Interesting!" Tantai Ye's lips curled up as she looked at the little cutie in front of her.

"Move aside!" he said to Yuko, who then took a few steps away.

The next moment, Tantai Ye released the alien insect under her control.

As soon as the insect landed, it pounced on Tantai Ye's leg, then moved up his leg and down to his back with incredible speed.

At this moment, at the thick end of the alien insect, two tentacle-like front legs rose up and stabbed straight at the exposed nape of Tantaiye's neck.

But Tantai Ye has no defenses now. His skin is so tough that even a missile might not be able to break through it if he doesn't want to, let alone his slender feet.

The sharp, slender feet failed to pierce the other's skin, but they did not give up, continuing to burrow relentlessly, as if determined to achieve their goal.

"It seems a bit anxious. Why don't you give it some treats?" Yuko, who was watching from the side, said with amusement.

Tantai Ye shrugged, then released the defenses of the skin on the back of her neck, and the alien insect's forelegs instantly burrowed inside.

Just as it was about to break through the skin and burrow deeper, it seemed to encounter something terrifying and quickly retreated, even trying to escape the other's body.

Tantai Ye, however, wouldn't let it leave just like that; instead, she reached back and grabbed...

He grabbed the alien insect in his hand, and the insect struggled desperately.

"What's going on? Why is it suddenly afraid of you?" Yuko asked curiously.

"Heh, its life level is low. To me, it's just a lowly creature. The moment it touched my flesh, it knew I wasn't its prey. On the contrary, if it continued, it would be devoured and merged by me. Why wouldn't it run away!"

Tantai Ye looked at the struggling alien insect in his hand, and the next moment, a colorful, glass-like divine eye slowly appeared above its head.

The moment it opened its eyes, a velvety ray of light shot out and pierced into the alien insect's body, instantly silencing it.

A moment later, as the light filaments contracted rhythmically and then detached from the other's body, the Eye of God slowly closed and disappeared.

The alien insect remained motionless, like a dead snake whose tendons had been pulled out, limp and lifeless in Tantai Ye's hands.

Ding!

Tantai Ye heard the message that the mission was complete in his mind, and he also told Youzi who was next to him.

"That's it!" Yuko exclaimed with some emotion, glancing at the alien worm. "Is this thing still useful?"

Tantai Ye shook his head, loosened his grip, and the opponent exploded into a cloud of dust in front of his hand.

The meteorite was casually stored in the system space by Tantai Ye. There was an alien worm here, and the meteorite was its nest.

Once the alien insects in front of us are eliminated, there will be no more creatures in this world that can make humans gigantic.

After emerging from the underground cavern, Yuko briefly recounted what had happened below. The other girls were all amazed after hearing it, as Kisara hadn't expected that her mission would be completed so easily.

Then everyone set sail and returned home.

Several days later, inside the King's Castle.

As noon approached, a group of maids bustled about in the luxurious dining room, some setting out tableware, others arranging bowls, plates, and flowers.

These maids are no longer the sages from the Pure Land, but were recruited and selected from the common people. Judging from their skillful manner, they have obviously adapted to their current work.

This lunch today is of extraordinary significance, as it was specially arranged by the Holy Emperor, and the people who came are the most core figures in Eldia today.

As the time drew near, the first to arrive were military representative Pisis, followed by rising star Erwin, and then the president and two other political newcomers. These people were undoubtedly loyal followers of the Church of God.

The maids led everyone to their seats in the restaurant.

They had barely sat down when the Holy Emperor led Historia into the restaurant.

Although Historia held no official position, these people all knew that the Holy Emperor seemed to be intentionally grooming this young girl, and only Pisis had a vague guess as to what the purpose was.

After exchanging polite greetings with the others, the Holy Emperor gracefully took his seat next to the main seat, while Historia sat opposite him.

As for the vacant main seat, needless to say...

Amidst a burst of laughter, Tantai Ye walked in, followed by Yumiko and Pokona, who clung to him like a shadow.

Tantai Ye sat in the main seat, while Yumiko and Pokona stood behind her.

"Good afternoon, everyone. I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to meet you all. I've invited you here today for two reasons: first, to see you all, and second, to take this opportunity to let you all know something," Tantai Ye said.

"It shouldn't be a development problem!" President Darius said.

“That shouldn’t be military in nature either. The countries that border us now are nominally ours, but in reality, they’re already part of our territory,” Pisis laughed.

Tantai Ye smiled and shook her head, "Let our leader tell you! We can talk while we eat, so everyone doesn't need to be too reserved!"

After saying that, he snapped his fingers, and the maids began to serve the dishes quietly.

The Holy Emperor then coughed lightly and said, "The main reason I invited everyone to this meal today is to inform you that I plan to hold an investiture ceremony in the royal city in three days."

"A investiture ceremony?"

"what is that?"

Everyone looked puzzled, except for Pisis, who instinctively glanced at the quiet Historia.

Sure enough, the Holy Emperor continued, "At the ceremony, I will formally appoint Historia as the Empress of the Eldian Empire. She will be independent of the current government and will be the object of loyalty to the government and the entire country."

The Holy Emperor looked at the somewhat strange expressions on everyone's faces and continued, "I know you have some doubts, and you may even know that Historia is the illegitimate daughter of the original Reis family and is also considered an heir. Doing this is equivalent to the throne returning to the Reis family."

"But that's not the case. The current Historia Reiss has no relation to the old Reiss family anymore. She represents the Divine Court. She is Historia of our Divine Court. Do you understand?"

Everyone nodded; they weren't stupid, so how could they not understand the meaning behind the words?

"Then, if Historia becomes the Emperor, wouldn't that be considered succeeding you? And what about the positions of the High Priest and the Pope...?" Erwin then asked.

This time, the Holy Emperor didn't speak, but Tantai Ye smiled and took over the conversation, saying, "From now on, she will represent us. We will move from the forefront to behind the scenes... There are no outsiders here, so I'll be frank. In the future, our focus will no longer be on this world, so Historia will represent us and stay here."
