"She is correct, Mike. If you wish to fight Sword Demon once more. You must have a firm grasp on his strength. He only utilized his attack once during that space combat. During the raid, he demonstrated his true might, and you were not present."
"He was only a few steps behind Chris. Of course, his Sword Soul was ineffective while he was still in the Sword Intent Realm. His Sword Intent, on the other hand, was growing stronger. He can build a sword with a true Sword Soul in it after he reaches the Mortal Sword Believe."
"That Sword alone can improve his strength by 20%. But it doesn't end there. Remember how his Sword Intent was capable of rivaling your Spirits? Your Sword Intent can learn laws once you reach the first level of the Mortal Sword Believe."
"If you thought Chris was frightening, imagine someone who has comprehended Laws with Sword Intent. He'd be frighteningly powerful. Even if you understand Space Law, it will not be enough. Because once his Sword Intent combines with the Laws, he has the ability to shatter his opponent's law."
"That implies you can't employ laws to battle him as long as he uses Sword Intent or your Law becomes unbelievably powerful. Not literally, but assume he can see through your teleportation and launch a counterattack."
"The levels that come after aren't all that different. You can easily improve your laws as well as your Sword Intent. However, in the fourth level, you no longer combine Sword Intent and Laws. You make up your own Sword Law. Of course, creation here does not imply the invention of a new law, but rather the transformation of the Laws into the Sword."
"It's a little complicated. So let's just ignore it. If he ever achieves this level, he will be unstoppable with Mortal World and will not need to cultivate. And cultivation will only increase his strength by a factor of two. According to his Sword Law, there is a potential of killing a Saint or even the Great Saint as an Emperor."
Gasp!
"Seriously?" Every girl in the room fixed her gaze on Lucas. They were aware that swordsmen are normally frightening, but this was over the top. They have never seen somebody kill Great Saint as an Emperor.
"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! You girls are extremely enthusiastic about nothing." Mike shakes his head and clicks his tongue. Then he gets up, pointing his thumb at himself, and declares, "I will slaughter divinity when I reach Emperor."
"Sure, sure!" Jenny touched his shoulder while other girls nodded their heads with sinister smiles on their cheeks. She swiftly drew him in and urged, "Go take a break! If you want to begin a cultivation session with us, you must be stronger. Don't worry about Guild matters; I'll handle them."
"Are you aware? I was never concerned. Because I know the person I've entrusted all of my responsibilities to will never let me down." Mike grabbed her nose and talked while staring her in the eyes.
"Ugh! Just leave!" As she pushed Mike out, a hot flush formed on her cheeks as she looked at his face.
"Did you just blush?" Lauren looked at Jenny suspiciously and inquired. She didn't anticipate Jenny, the girl, to flush.
"Damn you! Just attempt to get his sweet words and handsome face close to yours at the same moment. I'll wait to see what kind of expression you have." Jenny yelled, pointing her finger at Lauren, her face flushed.
"Ah! I'd love to experience that feeling. My body trembles just thinking about it." Lauren wrapped her arm over her torso and murmured with a lusty tone.
"Yeah! Yeah!" Jenny could only fold her hands and pout after hearing her blatant remark.
"Is this the reason you ranked girls in the family?" Alena spoke out from behind, her peculiar expression on Jenny's face. Jenny is well-known to her. But she didn't know Jenny that well. Because, unlike her, her father fully dominated her.
And, more importantly, Jenny never sought recognition until she became a member of Mike's family. Now, for many of the girls in his family, she is like an invincible pillar that cannot be moved.
Maybe it's because of Mike's unwavering trust in her, or maybe it's because of her acts.
"Yeah! You already know that having a decent physique, morals, and face is the best method to win a girl's heart. Although many people claim that appearance is unimportant, if you look closely at the world, you can see the genuine difference."
"Handsome guys are only drawn to the attractive if they first locate someone with a decent moral. Girls, like them, are drawn to their attractive features. Otherwise, how do you believe Elf Prince can amass a harem of 500 girls?"
"He has a wonderful physique and a handsome face. In terms of morals, he's up to no good. That is the distinction between him and Mike. When Mike drew those females in with his morals, he actually won their hearts."
"If it weren't for financial and talent constraints, his harem would already number in the thousands. That is why I established those guidelines. Aside from your beauty and fortune, he needs talent. Every one of you is a genius, but it won't be enough on your own."
"And that is where you require his assistance. Listen up, ladies: Mike could be a moron. He is someone who doesn't care about the consequences of his actions. He is someone who only seeks pleasure whether it is a battlefield or a bed. But he is giving everything he has for the sake of strength."
"During the second round of the Genius Tournament, he stated that he needed to strengthen himself in order to protect his women." As she said her next remarks, the entire room was brimming with a fighting spirit.
"Let us show him that we don't always require his protection."
"But, if that's the case, why did you assign him to fight Elf Prince? You're aware of my strength, aren't you? As long as we face them in the guild war, I can easily take care of him." Alena shakes her head, perplexed. Despite her agreement with Jenny's statements, she was still perplexed because she was concerned for his health.
"There are three reasons for this. First and foremost, Mike will be trained. According to my calculations, Mike is still inferior to Elf Prince in both cultivation and battle strength. As a result, Mike must improve. I don't care if he unlocks additional modes or understands laws."
"I only know that he needs to improve because strength is the most important condition for him to realize his dream. Second, it is for the sake of his reputation. Elf Prince is regarded as one of the universe's greatest minds. Consider how he would fare if he were vanquished by a Mike. How popular Mike can become."
"That will immediately boost his reputation. I know you all adore him. But keep in mind why you and your friends are with him. All of you, including upcoming girls, is the reason he may realize his dream."
"Finally, you are our ace in the hole. I can't just utilize my trump card to defeat a weak individual. You are expected to assist us when we are in desperate need." Jenny nods and softly explains as soon as her eyes fell on Lucas who was sleeping on the bed with his helmet on.
"He has evolved." Jenny turned to face Lauren and said. Lauren also noticed Lucas, who was lying on his bed with the helmet on his head. They both understood why he was acting this way.
"I didn't want him to live a life like that. I honestly didn't." Lauren clenched her fist as a tear streamed down her cheeks. She resented herself for abandoning Luke. If Luke had been present, Lucas might not have changed so drastically.
He could have been playing with them or even bickering with them. However, everything changed. Lucas, too, had evolved. She had saved all of those riches for Lucas because she wanted to provide him with the greatest life possible. Everything she did was for her younger sibling.
But Luke's death had a profound effect on him. Lucas is now solely concerned with training.
"Don't be concerned! He's changed for the better. Even Mike, the moron, is evolving. Though the difference is still so minor that it is difficult to detect." Everyone's face lit up when she said those words. Jenny drew Lauren into her embrace and let her rest.
"However, if I am the trump card. So, how about you? I thought you were the trump card." Alena inquired, perplexed, as she believed her surroundings had improved.
"Me? I'm the family's backbone. If you think it's Mike, you're mistaken. That is the reason." Jenny pointed to Alena and said, "It doesn't matter if you lose. It doesn't really matter if Mike loses either. But if I lose, my entire family will fall apart."
"That's why I'm the backbone, and I can't lose" Obviously, not in the literal sense. I mean, I can't face you and win right now. But"
As she says this, she moves closer to Alena and pats her head, saying, "I will catch up to you very soon. Because I am the family's first mistress."
