I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

He took a few steps back to distance himself from the Crow Demon, still holding the crystal tightly in his hand, ready to crush it at any time.

"call--"

The crow demon breathed a sigh of relief and flapped its wings twice. A gentle breeze blew by, and all the horrifying and distorted images disappeared, leaving only an empty and tidy ward.

"This is much more refreshing."

The crow demon used its beak to straighten its feathers and put its top hat back on its head. After ensuring its posture was flawless, it continued speaking:

"Please forgive my uninvited presence. I am Amatras, the messenger of the great Lord of Fate."

"The reason I came to your place was simply because I happened to sense a soul on this side of the passageway possessing the marks of two Supreme Beings. Out of curiosity, I took the liberty to visit you."

"I'm sorry, Miss Iveliya, I didn't recognize you just now."

When he said this, Amatras' three pairs of eyes were fixed on Iveliya the whole time, and he even called out Iveliya's name!

"Cuck!"

Lucius immediately let go of Iveliya's hand, eager to shirk responsibility and distance himself from the matter, much like Sam had done before:

"Great, it turns out that it was Little Ai'ai who lured the Great Demon of the Supreme Heaven here!"

"And you actually have the mark of another evil god? Oh my god, how much have you hidden from me?"

Lucius had an expression of being deceived by a scumbag woman, and he was so sad that he looked like he was about to drop pearls.

Iveliya: ???

Are you serious about letting go?

You'd rather believe a supreme demon you just met than me, someone you've been with day and night for... three whole days!?

"No, Brother Lu, why do you believe everything He says? Where is your usual IQ?"

"The Great Demon of the Supreme Heaven is full of lies. This guy must be trying to sow discord between us!"

Ivilia just felt that her life was extremely miserable. She hadn't even figured out the reason why fate had inexplicably targeted her, and now a great demon came and told her that there was more than one evil god targeting her.

Damn it, what’s so good about me that you guys pay so much attention to me?

Just tell me, can't I change it?

"The evidence is irrefutable! Iveliya, listen..."

At this time, the second evil god who had set his sights on Iveliya was accusing her.

"Ahem, could you two be quiet for a moment and let me finish what I'm saying?"

Amatras tapped the floor with his claws, and the power of the demigod rippled through him. Lucius and Ivilia immediately stopped quarreling and shrank their heads like quails.

"As I said, I'm a messenger."

"And I happen to have a message from the Supreme to Miss Iveliya. According to the Supreme's will, we were supposed to meet some time later, but today's unexpected change must be the Supreme's guidance."

"Here, I will tell you the Supreme Oracle—"

"The throat of the hourglass whispers unfallen sands, and every knock is a fork in the grains."

After saying this, Amatras' figure began to become blurred, and his physical features were gradually disappearing.

Come to think of it, it is a miracle that a low-end sacrifice can allow a great demon to maintain its physical presence in the world for such a long time.

Iveliya: No, can you please explain yourself clearly?

What does that damn evil god mean? Will I die if I don’t become the Riddler?

"Happy times are always short-lived. It seems it's time to say goodbye."

"Also, I will eliminate the impact of this visit, please rest assured."

Amatras took off his hat again and placed it on his chest, squeezed out a string of strange syllables from his throat, then leaned over to say goodbye to Lucius and Iveliya, but this time his posture was very formal and solemn.

"Well, Ghana~"

After Amatras jumped into the door, the door closed, leaving behind a confused Iveliya and a serious Lucius.

The last syllables uttered by Amatras were the language of chaos. Ivelia could not understand them, but Lucius did.

"Respected Lord of the One, the All-That-Is-All, my Lord [Destiny] greets you."

30-If six-year-old Plotina met me, she would be in trouble.

"Hahaha, damn it, I almost died, you little bastard!"

That night, at the Dalu Manor, Grand Duke Glade, who knew the whole process, couldn't help but point at Lucius and laugh.

"Damn old Deng, you bastard..."

Lucius looked at Old Deng with a hint of resentment, "Your son almost reopened, and you have the nerve to gloat over his misfortune?"

"Then you haven't reopened yet."

The crystal goblet between Grand Duke Glade's fingers shone with a shimmering arc of light. His left leg was casually folded over his right knee, his toes lightly tapping, his demeanor relaxed and nonchalant.

"What else can you expect me to do? Charge into the High Heavens and avenge you?"

"Firstly, they didn't hurt you, and secondly, I can't beat them, so all I can do is lecture you."

Putting down his wine glass, the smile lines at the corners of his eyes faded away, and Grand Duke Glade's expression became much more serious:

“Don’t think you can control everything if you don’t have enough strength to support you.”

"Evilia has already warned you that this might be a sacrifice, but you still let it go. Isn't that your problem?"

"If you had killed Matthew right away, you wouldn't have encountered what happened later."

"Don't say things like 'something went wrong.' Since you've chosen to gamble, even if the odds are slim, you must be prepared to lose and pay the price for it."

"..."

Lucius was silent for a moment, his expression very strange:

"Then let me ask you, if you were there, could you control yourself and not finish the melon?"

"Then I definitely can't control it."

Grand Duke Glade answered very straightforwardly.

I really can't do it myself, but does that stop me from pointing fingers at you?

"Then you are talking nonsense."

Lucius regained the advantage in an instant. It was just a tantrum, which made everyone feel uncomfortable.

"This incident started when I received a threatening letter. As my biological father, shouldn't you take the initiative to help me get rid of the threat?"

"But you didn't care about it. I did everything myself. Don't you have any fault at all?"

"No, what kind of bullshit logic is this?"

Grand Duke Glade's eyes widened in surprise:

"I have so many things to do every day, how can I pay attention to these trivial matters? It's not like I don't give you the authority, can't you just arrange for someone to handle it yourself?"

"Haha, you just said that the threat I received was a small matter, right?"

Lucius immediately revealed a smile of success:

"You're in trouble. I'm going to tell Mom about this."

Grand Duke Glade: !!!

"No!"

The Guardian of the Eastern Territory of the Graria Empire, the Commander of a million-strong army, leaped over and hugged his son's thigh without any ceremony.

"Son, even if Dad is wrong this time, you must never tell your mother about this!"

Iveliya: ???

Is this right?

I didn’t expect that Grand Duke Glade is henpecked... No, it turns out that your mother is still alive, Brother Lu. Then why haven’t I seen her in the manor?

Thinking of this, Iveliya, who had been quietly nibbling cake beside her, finally couldn't contain her curiosity and whispered to Leila, who was also watching the fight between father and son:

"Aunt Leila, Grand Duke Glade looks scared of Lucius' mother?"

"Well..."

Leila's eyes twitched slightly, and after carefully considering her words, she replied:

"It's mainly because Lucius' mother treated Glade rather, uh, brutally and harshly. Plus, she was away all year round and only came back occasionally."

"If Lucius complains, Glade will probably have to recuperate for several months due to his broken pelvis."

Iveliya: A broken pelvis? What kind of master is this?

With such a strong woman, it’s no wonder her husband never had a rebellious period. She is truly a heroine!

“That’s amazing…”

"Good boy, don't learn from that bad woman."

"what?"

...........

Because the player Lucius used an off-board trick, the post-match review ended with the defeat of coach Grand Duke Glade.

"Should we reconsider our deal with Sanita? Although we were safe today, who knows what monsters will come next."

In the corridor, Iveliya was still frightened by what happened today.

"Need not."

"We've already gotten into trouble because of her. Even if we want to distance ourselves from her, trouble will still come knocking on our door, and..."

Lucius looked at Ivilia and smiled gently:

"Have you forgotten that you are also one of the targets of the Chaos Cult?"

"Even if I can leave her behind, can I leave you behind?"

Ivylia: Brother Lu! (Raises hand/crying/raises hand)

You came from Weiss, and I'm dressed in white. I want to eat Eastland food~

"Besides, it's not like I haven't learned anything from what happened today."

Just as Iveliya was moved, Lucius continued.

There is no child who cries every day, and there is no gambler who always loses.

He has arranged personnel to investigate the route that the special train will pass through, and if any traces of cultists or signs of sacrifice are found, the risks will be eliminated immediately.

Lucius certainly failed today, but can he fail again every time?

Knowing it is wrong, but not changing.

He has always enjoyed danger. How boring would life be without some excitement?

"So, what lesson did you learn, Lu?"

Iveliya looked at Lucius with sparkling eyes, looking forward to his next speech.

Even if Lucius said that the second floor should be built on the first floor, she would applaud and praise him loudly.

"The lesson is, if you ever encounter this kind of cult sacrifice again, I'll send you away as far as possible."

"You, being watched by two evil gods at the same time, are easily attracting demons and monsters."

Corporal Ivilia, do you dare to say that you fought well this time?

You really made things difficult for Brother Lu today!

Iveliya: ...

Although it sounds uncomfortable, it seems to be the case.

I think Brother Lu has a great idea.
