Chapter 203: Ruler Of The World

"Alright, we are leaving now," Nero asserted.

They were in the palace where Nero killed Ouroboros, who was possessing the king's body.

After traveling for a day, Rhea, Pavel, Rosemary, and Arnold reached the palace with Nero and his girls.

They stayed at the palace for a week so everyone could get proper rest, and in the meantime, Nero traveled the three continents alone.

Nero respectfully asked the kings of the various kingdoms to kneel before him; those who submitted to him were alive, and the rest were dead.

Nero made contracts with all the kingdoms, which made him the king and brought unity and peace to all four continents.

He didn't take over those kingdoms as he had no time to rule over them, but he created new laws and gave the highest position to Arnold and then Pavel.

Including the continent of Olympus palace, Nero was king of half of the world. His might was spread to the other parts of the world, and he had made his existence known to the rest of the world.

When Nero was taking over the kingdoms, Emilia, Sophia and Asteria were in the palace with Rosemary and Rhea.

Emilia was furious as Nero left without telling her. However, she didn't wake up when Nero was trying to tell her.

Sophia, on the other hand, slept all day as she traveled non-stop and healed Arnold for hours.

Emilia later told Asteria about what had happened to her and how princess Astrea had taken over her body. But much to Emilia's surprise, Asteria said she remembered everything that happened when princess Astrea had inhabited her body— after waking up the following day.

Curious, Emilia asked her if she was scared of something like that happening again, but Asteria replied with 'Princess Astrea wasn't Asteria, but Asteria is princess Astrea.'.

Emilia was confused at first, but Rosemary explained to her in simple language.

Later, on the same day, Emilia pranked Sophia by carrying her body and placing it on the edge of the pool.

However, Sophia was awake at that time, and she played along to see what Emilia was trying to do.

Sophia wanted to get back to Emilia for pulling the prank, so she rolled into the pool on purpose.

At first, Emilia laughed to her heart's content, but after noticing Sophia still hadn't come out of the pool even after 15 minutes had passed, she started panicking.

Emilia rushed to the pool and found Sophia still sleeping under the pool. So she jumped into the pool and carried Sophia out of the pool.

Then, she dried her body and conjured new clothes for her and Sophia. And carried Sophia back to her room.

Emilia was surprised as to how Sophia still hadn't woken up by all that, but in truth, she was pranked by Sophia.

Sophia couldn't stop laughing, but she had to hold it in.

Asteria and the rest of the girls couldn't figure out why Emilia did that in the first place if she was going to carry Sophia back to her room.

Later at night, when Sophia confessed and exposed everything, Emilia was on the verge of exploding in anger.

She felt dumb and stupid, but she wasn't aware that she already was dumb and stupid

"Zeus, wait!" Arnold called out to Nero.

Nero turned back in annoyance and asked, "What is it?"

"You have to be careful out there," Arnold informed.

Nero raised his brows and uttered, "I need to be careful? What could possibly endanger me?"

"As I have already told you, the rest of the world is dangerous."

"Dangerous?" Nero scoffed. "Please tell me you are kidding."

"He is not," Pavel quipped.

SIGH!

Nero sighed and nodded, "Alright. I will try to be a little bit careful."

"We are not joking," Arnold uttered. "The rest of the world is far more strong and advanced than the other half."

"And… What do you mean by that?" Nero asked with a confused and curious look on his face.

"They have been secluded from the rest of the world, and the only contacts made between them are from guildhalls to exchange information," Rhea informed.

"And so? How is that any danger to me?" Nero asked.

"You must have heard of the '12 legendary heroes', right?" Arnold questioned.

"Yeah." Nero nodded. "I do remember hearing that somewhere. What of it?"

"All of them are from the other five continents."

"And…?" Nero was confused as to why Pavel and others were acting like that.

"We were there three months, traveling, looking for you… well, really," Rhea shrugged and continued, "We were simply searching for clues and doing what we have been doing for eons."

"You mean 'bullshitting'?" Nero remarked.

"There are fucking strong people living on those five continents!" Rhea yelled.

"Not stronger than me, though," Nero shrugged.

"Yes. But they are strong. Stronger than anyone you have ever fought," Arnold asserted.

Nero rolled his eyes and muttered, "Whatever."

"And that includes Lucifer too," Pavel added.

Nero took a deep breath and glared at Pavel with a furious look on his face: "Don't. Mention. His. Name."

"Heh!" Rosemary smirked and scoffed, "Then get used to hearing that name."

"Huh?"

"There are many cults who worship Lucifer and Dione as gods. And they are crazy."

"Nonsense! No one worships gods. And Lucifer and Dione are just angels."

"Not for them. They are crazy over Lucifer and Dione, and they got famous after the world was informed about your death," Rhea informed.

"My death?" Nero knitted his brows and sneered, "My death? So that's what the world was told about me?"

"Yes. And they hate your guts," Rosemary added.

"And after your brilliant declaration to rule the world, the five continents now know that you are alive and back."

After a brief silence, Nero laughed out loud and yelled, "Nice! Very nice!"

Pavel and Arnold glanced at each other with confused looks on their faces.

"Why do you look happy?" Rosemary asked curiously.

"This is the best!" Nero shouted. "If they worship Lucifer, then if I show them how strong I am and how Lucifer lied about killing me. They will stop worshiping him, and I couldn't ask for more."

Sophia placed her hand on Nero's shoulder and said, "That's enough. We are getting late for our ship."

"Yeah." Nero nodded and turned to Pavel and Arnold. "Take care."

Then, he turned to Rhea and Rosemary and uttered with a smirk on his face: "Laters bitches."
