The talks of the 3 emperors ended successfully. The major resolutions made in this meeting were destined to be recorded in history.
The 3 empires, Fallen Angel Empire, Dark Shadow Empire, and Bloody Empire issued a joint statement to stop all sanctions and wars and plan to establish a joint alliance. The Demon Realm would usher in a new era of peace.
Of course, things such as the son-in-law clause were not disclosed to the public, and the specific date of the establishment of the confederation was not determined. The parties involved were clear about the reason.
The announcement of this joint statement made the entire Demon Realm burst into cheers. The 3 empires had experienced the bitterness of war. For the people, almost no one wanted to live that kind of broken and homeless life again. And for those who had excess energy and were belligerent, there was also a huge stage for them — battle ball competitions, combat tournaments, magic game cultivation, as well as the future military drills, academy exchange competitions, magic game competitions, and so on mentioned in the three countries' joint statement. All of these would give them ample opportunities to show off their abilities.
The Fighting Tournament ended successfully, and the 3 empires also reached an important consensus. It was almost time to leave the Iron Fist Estate.
After setting the return date of departure within 3 days, Chen Rui received a special invitation from Raizen to go to the Mechanic Association of the Iron Fist Estate to give a lecture to the mechanics who came to watch the competition.
Chen Rui naturally couldn't refuse, but to his surprise, as soon as he left, a heavyweight visitor came to the VIP hotel.
Her Majesty Empress of the Shadow Empire.
The mother of the child.
After the finals that was still talked about by the Demon Realm, although Catherine had communicated with Jía at the 3 empires meeting and reached a tacit understanding, it was the first time she officially came to meet the harem group. However, she didn't expect that the coordinator wasn't there. It was equivalent to directly facing the "sisters" (love rivals?).
Catherine's arrival was reasonable, but the harem group seemed to be in a hurry. It wasn't because Chen Rui was not present, but because they happened to be playing a game with Ms. Duoduo. Many people had some strange things drawn on their faces.
This VIP guest house was not a place that ordinary people could enter. However, the person sitting at the entrance was a certain dead duck dragon. Seeing the arrival of Her Majesty Queen who had defeated her (the old lover exposed by that damn human), she rolled her eyes and greeted her enthusiastically. Then, she very "enthusiastically" asked the attendants not to announce her arrival and allowed Catherine to enter directly. As a result, when Her Majesty Shadow Queen entered the hall, the women who were caught off guard didn't even have time to "remove their makeup."
When Catherine came to the hall, she deliberately removed her veil. It was not that she wanted to show off, but to express her sincerity and avoid wearing a veil to cause unnecessary ill feelings among the girls.
In order to prepare for this moment of meeting, Her Majesty the First Sage, the Empress, had thought of all kinds of words and possible situations in advance. However, when she saw the main characters, she was almost shocked.
Athena was wearing clothes that looked like a metal bucket, and her face was painted with metallic paint.
Isabella was dressed as a witch and had an exaggerated aquiline nose.
Jía was wearing a weird robe. Instead of a crown on her head, it was a headgear that looked like a bald head. She even had a beard on her face.
Rolla's face was smeared with grass ash, and her body was covered with straw.
Even the little loli, Alice, was holding a lion mask that had just been taken off in her big paw hands …
The only normal one was Ms. Duoduo, who was wearing a cute dress, a small basket in her hand, and a pair of crystal shoes. Beside her was a barking puppy.
Catherine could tell at a glance that the puppy's aura was actually at the national level, and she couldn't help but be secretly surprised. The women were also stunned there. The first beauty was indeed worthy of her reputation. Her alluring appearance and elegant and wise temperament made even the harem group, who were already stunning beauties, jealous and envious. In addition, they were in such an abnormal state, so they couldn't help but feel awkward.
Ms. Duoduo had already rushed over happily, "Mom! Mom! "
"Duoduo! You're being naughty again! "Catherine looked at her daughter in her arms reproachfully and patted her little butt gently.
"No! It's the aunties who are playing an interesting game with me! This game is called … "Little Duoduo sucked on her fingers, seemingly unable to remember for a while.
The puppy had a flattering smile on his face, and he actually said, "Little Master Duoduo, no, Master Dorothy, this script is called" The Wizard of Oz ". I'm your puppy, Toto."
Catherine recognized the puppy's voice. It was Dodo who was defeated by the Red Pipit. Looking at the strange appearance of the women, including Ice Queen Jía, she suddenly couldn't say the many words that she had prepared before. More words that she wanted to say came out from her heart. In the end, she just bowed deeply to her "love rivals".
"Thank you."
Although it was only two words, it was sincere and full of sincere gratitude. Jía and the other women could naturally hear it, and they hurriedly returned the gesture.
"Mom, Aunt Athena is a tin man, Aunt Rolla is a scarecrow, Aunt Isabella is …" Duoduo pointed at them one by one, "And Sister Alice is a lion who likes to 'howl'."
"I already said, it's not sister, it's aunty!" Alice immediately corrected. The little loli had her own thoughts, and she didn't want to belittle her sister and Athena.
Duoduo walked over curiously. She tiptoed, stretched out her hand, and compared Alice's height, then Athena and Isabella next to her. She confirmed with a serious face, "It's sister!"
"…" The lion loli who was poked in tears howled to the sky with tears streaming down her face.
Fortunately, Duoduo wasn't looking at her chest.
Jía frowned, "Alice, don't be rude in front of Her Majesty Catherine!"
"It doesn't matter." Catherine smiled slightly, "So … are you still short of people?"
On the other hand, the mechanics of the Mechanic Association were quite enthusiastic. It wasn't until the evening that Chen Rui returned to the posthouse. When he learned about Catherine's arrival, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
The title of Madam Empress's first sage wasn't just for show. Even Isabella had to admit defeat. In some aspects, she could even challenge the entire harem. The most terrible thing was that she happened to visit when he wasn't around. A war of words or even a world war might have already happened.
When Chen Rui hurried to the hall, he saw a harmonious scene that surprised him: Catherine was talking and laughing with the women. Everyone's attitude seemed to be very casual. There was no estrangement as he imagined.
Little Duoduo was curled up in Isabella's arms, sleeping very sweetly. With Miss Phoenix's abundant energy, she must be exhausted from playing so early to fall asleep.
Seeing Chen Rui coming in, the women got up one after another. Alice quickly greeted him happily, "Brother is back!"
Chen Rui touched the little loli's head, looked at the women, and said to Catherine, "You're here."
Kathleen smiled and nodded.
"Hmph! Your tone makes you sound like you're the supreme master. Fickle, shameless, bad man. "Needless to say, it was definitely the little mermaid princess who whispered with her poisonous tongue skill.
The black dragon chick came up to report the good news, "Boss! Sister Catherine treated us to a free meal today! "
For the chick, the free meal was naturally the biggest highlight.
Chen Rui was taken aback, "Have you all eaten?"
"Why, Your Royal Highness, your fiancée's father … that is, the father-in-law you often say, didn't ask you to stay for dinner?" Hearing Miss Inni's surprised voice, Chen Rui was speechless for a while. You're still holding your daughter in your arms. Can't you stop for a while?
"Your Royal Highness … I'm sorry, I didn't pack it for you." The troublesome little maid added a stab with a bitter face.
"Boss, it's okay. I specially saved supper for you. I'll give you a 10% discount. 10,000 black crystal coins for you …" The black dragon chick took out half a bun that she really couldn't finish with a straight face.
"…"
Catherine looked at the troubled Chen Rui and smiled without saying a word.
Jía said, "Okay, we've been busy all day today. Everyone is exhausted. We're going to rest. Chen Rui, you go and send Catherine off."
All the women nodded in unison. Chen Rui heard some clues. Jía didn't add the word "Your Majesty" when addressing Catherine. It seems that they are more intimate. Is this a good omen?
Before he could figure it out, he was inexplicably driven out of the door, accompanied by Catherine and the sleeping Miss Duoduo.
The two did not take the magic carriage, but chose to walk. In order not to attract attention, Catherine wore a veil, and Chen Rui changed his face.
Under the moonlight, the shadows of the two were getting closer and closer. Catherine took Chen Rui's arm. It was the first time that Chen Rui had such an intimate action with her in public. Feeling the warmth from the contact, a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart. It was very warm.
"Your heartbeat seems to be a little fast, Your Royal Highness."
"Now is not the time to waste mental power to study this kind of data." Chen Rui shrugged while hugging the sleeping Miss Duoduo, "You seem to be a little nervous too, Your Majesty. Is this the first time you are walking with a man like this?"
"You should be honored."
"I think the word 'warm' is more appropriate. This is my true feeling."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"I never thought I would have such a day. We have taken a lot of detours, but fortunately, we have finally arrived at the place we want to come the most." Catherine's head gradually approached and rested gently on his shoulder. The shadows on the ground overlapped into one.
He was right. "Warm". This is the feeling.
Chen Rui kissed her hair gently and smelled the familiar fragrance comfortably, "There is still a long way ahead. Let's walk on together."
"En …"
Catherine raised her head, lifted the veil, and kissed his face.
This action was so natural as if they had been lovers or husband and wife for many years.
It was the same warm feeling. Chen Rui's heart was warm, and he only hoped that this road could continue.
At this time, the two had walked to a remote place. Catherine stopped and took out something wrapped in layers of cloth from behind, "By the way, this is for you."
Chen Rui knew that she took this thing from the magic carriage at the entrance of the posthouse before she decided to walk, but she had been carrying it on her back, so he didn't know what it was.
Catherine took the little Duoduo, and Chen Rui opened the package. It turned out to be a metal object like an armor piece. With his current mechanic grand master eyesight, he quickly saw the key. He pressed one of the parts, and the armor piece quickly overlapped and changed into a set of armor.
This armor was black all over and exuded a special wave, giving a feeling of indestructibility. Chen Rui's heart moved, and he tried to put the armor into the storage space, but he failed. He was slightly shocked, "Angry King Armor?"
Catherine smiled and nodded. Chen Rui was very surprised. It's really one of the seven artifacts, the Samael Royal Family's Angry King Armor!
When Gustav (Bridget) fought desperately and was defeated by Raizen, Raizen didn't take away the Angry King Armor. However, the Angry King Armor and Bridget's body disappeared, causing the black dragon chick, who wanted to take advantage of it, to miss it. I didn't expect it to fall into Catherine's hands.
Chen Rui suddenly thought of something and asked tentatively, "Is Bridget …"
Catherine nodded and said the answer, "Yes, he is still alive. This is thanks to the resurrection potion you gave me when we were in the Small Plains."
Chen Rui once entered the palace to deliver the resurrection potion to Catherine after the Shadow Empire's mechanic contest, but in the battle of the Crystal Valley, Catherine thought that he couldn't heal her, so she spilled the potion on the ground and wasted it. Later, when Chen Rui was in the Jergal Fortress's Small Plains, he took out a bottle for Catherine to help her survive the Nirvana Disaster. In the end, he relied on Duoduo's power to save her.
In the battle with Raizen, Bridget burned his blood and life and died, but his body was not destroyed, and his soul did not completely dissipate. He was successfully resurrected by Catherine with the resurrection potion.
"It's just that Bridget …"
"Not only did I save him, but I also promised to give the Samael Royal Family a place and valuable living and development space in the Alliance Kingdom in the future, so he promised to lend me the Angry King Armor indefinitely." A hint of wisdom flashed through Catherine's eyes, "Actually, this is the condition that we have negotiated with Raizen during the meeting. In fact, I extorted the Samael Royal Family once. However, Raizen made a request to you in such a manner. He even let his daughter inherit the throne and marry you … Tiffany's trouble, he should not be able to solve it himself. You are likely to be in danger. I know that you have the ability to use the 7 artifacts, just like the God-Eating Mask. The Angry King Armor is the strongest armor among the 7 artifacts besides the Illusive Demon Shield. With it, at least you can have a higher chance of success. If you need it, I can also lend you the Dark Shadow Cloak. "
Only then did Chen Rui know Catherine's intention of extorting the Angry King Armor. He was touched and hugged her gently.
"Catherine, I …"
"You don't want to go back tonight?" Catherine clearly guessed his thoughts, and a blush flashed across her face behind the veil, "Aren't you afraid of being dismembered by the ladies the next day?"
"…"
"Okay, you don't have to look like you are rushing to the execution ground … In fact, when they asked you to send me and Duoduo back, they have already acquiesced to your crooked idea."
Chen Rui's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"I guessed."
"…"
