"Dad, Mom wants to invite you over."
I turned around to see one of the Seven Virtues, Rosa, looking at me with undisguised longing and love in her eyes. Her cute face had a sincere smile on it.
She was so cute. If it wasn't for the fact that the environment wasn't suitable for her, I would have raised her up high and then taken out a lollipop.
"And then you'll get the same treatment as that lolicon over there. Are you carrying snacks with you to entice young girls? You really are all perverts, a nest of snakes and rats. "
The silly cat actually managed to take this opportunity to retort. However, I still couldn't bear to see Kaid's ugly state as he lay on the ground. Was there really not a single kind-hearted person who dragged him off the stage?
Auntie Amala walked over. What a nice person, as expected of Marguerite's teacher … Why did you step on him? You even stepped on his face! You were so vicious! Should I say that as expected of Marguerite's teacher?
And then I really couldn't bear to watch anymore …
Hey, hey, hey, Kaid, what's with that mysterious smile of yours even after being stepped on? I didn't notice that you had such a hobby back in the day!
"Dad?"
Behind me, the cute Rosa frowned and pouted, as if she was dissatisfied that I had forgotten about her.
Actually, it wasn't that I had forgotten about her. I was just doing my best to pretend that I didn't see Senpai glaring at me from the corner of the wall.
"Cough, cough, little Rosa, try this ice cream. Finn's strawberry ice cream is a specialty of Bardi. Didn't you see how happy that fat grandpa — er, uncle — is eating it? It's already his fifteenth bowl, and he's still licking his glass. Is the food in the Cloud Tower really that bad?"
My last complaint was "slightly" louder than usual, so probably everyone heard me. And then, I was delighted to see Master Aloso's face instantly turn red, and then … he turned around and continued eating.
When he didn't finish eating for long, Auntie Amala's expression turned serious as she went to look for that fat elder who had embarrassed the mages.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, he actually ran out of the living room and even took the remaining five ice creams with him. Honestly …"
I felt like I was being especially shameless today as I looked at these shameless archmages.
"Roland, how much longer are you going to pretend that you didn't see me?"
However, the familiar voice behind me sent a chill down my spine. I slowly turned around. That familiar green color was giving off a nostalgic anger.
"… Roland, you better go see a neurologist. You're really becoming more and more like the one lying on the ground."
"Shut up, silly cat, or I'll turn you into a young girl right now!"
"… You have to get through this first."
The silly cat probably didn't want to embarrass herself in front of her colleagues, so she retreated. However, this only gave me an even greater headache.
He slowly turned around and put on a well-practiced social smile. He scratched his head and squeezed out a sentence.
"Senior sister, you're really beautiful today."
It wasn't a bad idea to praise a well-dressed woman first. Furthermore, I wasn't lying.
Unlike her usual plain attire, the senior sister was wearing a light purple silk dress today. There were mysterious facial lines on her pretty face, making her look dignified and mysterious. Her green hair, which was originally slightly curly, was straightened to her waist.
Unlike the other noblewomen attending this banquet, Amelia didn't wear any precious metal jewelry on her body. However, the fresh flowers on her head, the green vines on her arms, and the grass garlands on her bare feet were all mystical jewelry that had a natural artistic style.
She wore a pair of gold-rimmed eyeglasses, which made her seem less glaring. If it wasn't for the fact that no one attending this banquet was an ordinary person, perhaps someone would have already tried to hit on her.
Today, Amelia was quite special. She was quiet and beautiful, and even seemed slightly motherly (?). If I had to find an adjective to describe her, I would probably have to use the clichéd Nature Goddess or Forest Fairy.
But now, this originally quiet Forest Fairy was angry as well. She was glaring at me with displeasure, but the next instant, she smiled again.
"Since you're praising me sincerely, I'll forgive you for now."
Since when did my senior sister become so easy to talk to? I told her to go to the Northlands, but she stood me up, and she forgave me just like that?
"Of course I won't let you off so easily. Promise me one thing."
I paused in surprise, but silently nodded. As expected, my senior sister wasn't so understanding.
"… Roland, I know several excellent psychiatrists. You should go take a look."
"Silly cat, shut up."
However, Amelia smiled. Unlike before, this smile was very faint, making it hard for others to see it clearly.
"Come to the Forest of Dreams in the future when you have time. Jill has already said many times that 'Daddy has other children and doesn't love us anymore.' Samantha has also secretly looked at your portrait and cried several times. Although those children are independent and stubborn, they actually lack fatherly love. At the very least, come often. "
Someone was currently pulling on my shirt. I looked down to see Rosa's pitiful expression as she tried to hold back her tears.
"I'll cry for you if you don't agree." This was a wordless threat more powerful than anything else.
At this moment, I was petrified …
"Fatherly love, responsibility …"
I panicked, I really panicked …
Then, Amelia gently helped me tidy up my untidy shirt. She got closer to me and lightly rubbed her red lips against my cheek.
Amelia then directly left with Rosa, leaving behind me in a state of complete confusion and petrification … I was also viciously criticized by everyone.
"Roland, you're just as perverted as that Kaid. No, you're even worse scum. Your child is already so old, yet you're still fooling around outside!"
Auntie, you're an archmage, yet you don't know what a wood spirit is? Can you not lie through your teeth?
"Angel Amelia, my eyes!"
That archmage was actually vomiting blood. It would seem that the legendary "Angel Amelia's Fan Club" was going to place a bounty on my head again.
"My hands are burning! Burn this scum! "
My ice mage friend, when did you learn how to make fireballs? It's fine if you make fireballs, but at least don't set your sleeves on fire.
"Hahaha, Roland, you finally have such a day. You scum who always tries to screw me over, you deserve this day."
This person … was Kaid, who had been laughing out loud in public while everyone else was whispering and pointing at him, causing the mages to lose all face. He had been courting death for over a hundred years without wavering.
Kaid was currently shivering from the cold after Auntie Amelia used a layer of sleet to sober him up. Now, he was pointing at me arrogantly and laughing out loud, but he didn't notice that Auntie Amelia was so angry that she was rolling up her sleeves …
I felt that it wouldn't be long before all the archmages in the Town of Wrath would have to learn a new required class — Mage diplomatic etiquette and self-cultivation. Today's humiliation would serve as the best example, with Aunt Amala as the representative of the idiotic archmages in the Town of Wrath.
"… Today's Senpai is somewhat different."
I muttered to myself as I watched Senpai's back.
But right after that …
A tall, fair-skinned female elf rushed over and seemed to say something in an intense manner.
Senpai seemed to respond with a few words, but the silver-haired High Elf seemed to be dissatisfied. He even started to pull at Senpai …
* Boom! *
The floor was directly pierced through. If I recalled correctly, this was the first floor, and below us was solid granite … If that female elf was still intact, she would probably be buried underground as well.
Senpai retracted her smoking fist and viciously glared all around her, dispelling all the curious gazes around her.
"Your Majesty."
A male voice behind me sounded rather excited. He was probably the only one who would call me that.
"Reinhardt? You're here. "
I turned around and saw that it was indeed that familiar face of mine. The Black Knight Overlord was staring at me with an overly passionate gaze.
Behind him was a short, middle-aged man with a perverted expression. I remembered this face — he was the former First Senator of Xiluo, the most shameless Bone Dragon, Gricasio.
"Thank you for your hard work. Eat something and get some rest."
As I ordered the undead to eat, I kept feeling like I was forgetting something … Wait a moment, if Xiluo's people were here, then could the one who was hammered into the ground just now be the Bone Dragon Queen Gria?
I looked at the large hole in the ground and Senpai, who was obviously still angry. I considered what Gria might have said for two seconds, as well as the possibility that Gria might take out her anger on me. I wisely decided to forget about Gria.
This time, Xiluo's undead army was here as reinforcements for the Mist Alliance. The Mist Alliance was paying for their ally, Bardi.
My previous undead army was actually split into two main groups. One group consisted of the Mist Kingdom's main forces, with Becks and the Red Hunting Hounds as the main forces. During the battle of the Hades, most of them had chosen to stay in the Hades. The rest were either in the Mist Kingdom or returned to the Cycle of Reincarnation after the battle of the Hades.
The other group consisted of my subordinates from when I was still Yongye. Harloys, Gricasio, Reinhardt, Gria, and the other Undead Senators were all my subordinates.
They had their own lives and goals. Although they obeyed me and fought for me, they were different from the Red Hunting Hounds, who were like family and retainers to me. I could make them sacrifice themselves for me, but I was unable to make them stay in the Hades forever for me. In the end, most of them stayed in the Mist Alliance.
And now, although only a few Undead Lords had come, nobody would know their enemies better than them if they had to fight against an undead army.
Of course, it wouldn't be wrong to say that they were here to support me. In order to achieve my strategic goals, they would be absolutely necessary.
Reinhardt, Gria, and Gricasio were the only remaining undead in Xiluo. However, unlike Reinhardt and Gria who had always been loyal, Gricasio's power level was definitely the strongest. However, he was also the most unreliable and unreliable, as well as the least reliable of them all.
He was fine if he fought with the wind, but if he met with even the slightest danger, he would either flee or surrender.
He had just arrived, but not only did he not greet me, he even hid behind me and looked around nervously. It was as if he didn't feel safe at all since there were powerful experts here.
Suddenly, Gricasio's expression changed as he screamed.
"Impossible! Impossible! Harloys, you, you, you actually … took that step! "
This was yet another unexpected situation. Everyone's gazes followed the direction of Gricasio's finger to look at Harloys in the crowd.
Reinhardt also looked over, but he instantly paused in surprise. After a while, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Your Majesty?"
This "Your Majesty" didn't have the same level of respect as before. Instead, it referred to Gricasio's one and only status, the highest position in the undead world.
"Undead Emperor?"
Some of the more knowledgeable people added on. For a moment, the archmages who were truly knowledgeable about the undead world all sucked in a cold breath. The circle that was originally surrounding Harloys instinctively retreated.
Harloys was also astonished at first. But then, she condescendingly glanced over at Gricasio, her old enemy who was ranked higher than her, and revealed a proud smile.
"Yes, I'm now an Undead Emperor as well. This is the benefit of following Boss … no, it's the benefit of warming Boss's bed every night. Are you jealous? "
Harloys, I know that you're quite proud of showing off in front of your old enemy, but what did you mean by that last sentence? Why did you say that to Upanishad? Ahhh, she's glaring at me! You silly cat, you're trying to murder me!
