Chapter 231 Love Blooms And Withers

Chapter 231 Love Blooms And Withers

Coming out of his training chamber, he breathed in the fresh air.

"Huh~"

Three years of seclusion.

It was the longest time he had been away from the world.

Condensing the 'Origin Domain' was not easy.

He needs to meticulously combine all his condensed elemental paths while integrating his physical body and soul in a certain way.

If it were not for the help of the system, it would have taken him a few more hundred years to reach tier 7 and condense his domain.

Just as he was reminiscing, he saw one of his children, in a downturn, unconsciously walking towards him.

"Liam?"

"Huh? Dad?!" Liam's eyes bulged with excitement seeing his father finally out of seclusion.

"What happened to you? Why the sad face?" Maximus frowned.

Couldn't it be that something is wrong with Liam's relationship with his wife?

Before he entered his seclusion, Liam and Amara got back together like an old couple.

It seems that Amara had come to terms with her situation.

Coupled with multiple offenses that he taught Liam, even an ice-cold goddess would melt.

More importantly, after Liam's potential reached rank 7, he awakened his special physique, Etheric Echo.

It's the ultimate charm that can bring curiosity and attention.

Each moves, thought, and will, brings forth an otherworldly resonance that higher beings find attractive.

Of course, it also has a strong function besides picking up girls.

After the physique awakened, it's the ultimate ruler's physique.

It can detect, analyze, influence, and subdue anyone weaker than you.

For detection, it's like a pulse radar that can produce a topographic map of dimensions.

For analysis, it just makes your brain function faster to analyze all the information that the pulse passes by.

As for influence and subdue, it leverages the unique frequency of the Etheric Echo physique.

Meanwhile, after Liam heard his father's concern, a bitter smile appeared on his lips

"Hey, women are really complicated creatures..."

"Did you get kicked out of your house?" Maximus teased.

In the earlier years, when Liam and Amara were still in an ambiguous state.

Liam was often thrown outside because of his over-clinginess.

Amara was often too embarrassed because Liam kept doing something 'weird.'

After all, Amara was also a previous apex sovereign, the goddess worshiped by the Nexus continent.

How can she let a man violate her whenever he wanted?

Although they were officially husband and wife, there is something inside her called 'shame.'

"No, it's because of another woman..." Liam said embarrassingly.n)-OVeLbIn

"Elysienne?" Maximus asked knowingly.

"How did you know Elysienne?"

Liam was a little shocked to hear that his father had guessed who the woman was.

"I know every woman you've met since you learned to walk," Maximus said confidently.

"Oh~" Liam unconsciously nodded, not doubting anything.

Since Maximus met Elysienne that day, Elysienne seemed to disappear, only meeting Liam occasionally.

This is why Liam didn't know his father knew Elysienne from the very beginning.

Speaking of this goddess of love, Elysienne is really talented in business.

She opened multiple service industries around the Arcane Continent.

From restaurants, gambling, resorts, hotels, entertainment parks, etc.

Using the specially of her god's authority and billions of believers.

Her business bloomed, becoming one of the top firms in just a few decades.

Right now, her business is multiple times bigger than Lux.

After all, Lux just had a little of his support.

As a God, it was natural for her to surpass some brat.

Of course, the Aetherium Guild was just brewing, and Lux was also still growing.

In the future, once they are on the same playing field, Lux can surpass them all like a rocket.

Soon, Liam told the problem that he was facing.

It is indeed about Elysienne.

The time bomb, the curse of love, exploded.

Fortunately, before he went into seclusion, he had already arranged everything.

Now, Elysienne is still conscious and not assimilated by her authority.

Even so, Elysienne must stay with Liam at all times.

This made Amara suspicious, as she remembered that a woman often hang out with Liam when she was on a tantrum.

Based on her interrogation, she also learned that Elysienne is Yorticia from the previous virtual world.

Based on these events and their ambiguous atmosphere.

Amara concluded that Liam was having a mistress outside.

Now Amara, who was beginning to warm up to Liam, was furious.

After all, a succubus was sticking to her husband.

Whose woman will not be furious?

Unfortunately for Liam, he was too weak to change anything.

One is a goddess of the divine continent, and the other is a goddess of the former Nexus Continent.

His flimsy body can't do anything, so he was thrown outside of the house again.

"Hey, this is the consequence of eating more than you can chew." Maximus patted Liam and nearly laughed at his experience.

"Remember, you may throw up, but you must swallow it again," Maximus advised.

"What do you think I should do, Dad?" Liam looked at him pitifully.

"Of course, you marry Elysienne as soon as possible!" Maximus thought for a while and said.

"How is that possible?"

"Now that we are just in this relationship, they nearly destroyed the house."

"What's more, when I married Elysienne." Liam refused, thinking of all the possible consequences.

"What? Are you a bastard?! You can't even take care of this little responsibility?" Maximus asks seriously.

"No, of course not; I'll take responsibility," Liam said firmly.

Liam also had feelings for Elysienne.

All those years when his wife shuns him.

There was this girl always in the rescue, making him smile and laugh.

Furthermore, after knowing she was Yorticia, the seed of love implanted in him blooms again.

Although Liam admits that this is a bastardly move, it is better than him not taking any responsibility.

"That's my son! In this world, there is nothing love can't conquer."

"Anyway, once you marry Elysienne, Amara would be the main wife then."

"Amara should agree to such a benefit," Maximus concluded.

After all, Liam and Elysienne's affair had already been concluded.

Amara should know that there is already nothing she can do.

She can only minimize the damage and maintain her authority.

"This—I'll try!" Liam's eyes became determined, and he ran back to his house.

"Hey, children these days. He didn't even ask me how my training went," Maximus sighed.

His kids have grown up, no longer caring about their old father.

Seeing that his family was not home, he instructed Tintin to tell them he was out of seclusion.

Meanwhile, Maximus got to Skye's training chamber.

"Skye!"

"It's you, Maximus!" Skye's eyes lit up with battle intent.

"Huh? Have you reached tier 7?"

"That right," Maximus smiled at Skye's concern.

"Congratulations!" Skye said with a smile.

"How about a fight?" Maximus offered, seeing the battle intent in her eyes.

"Sure, let's see if you haven't become rusty after training," Skye said, attacking quickly.

Maximus just smiled and suppressed his strength to match Skye's.

And like a father beating his children.

Maximus seemed to move like it was the most natural thing in the world.

It's as if the grass, trees, and wind were assisting him, and Skye was the enemy.

Soon, Skye slumped into the ground, thinking she was dreaming.

"You are really shameless! You dare to use the power of law against me!" Skye said after a bit of thinking.

"Hey, you just attacked me without stating any rules."

Although he can't use the power of law, he can influence them with his domain.

Thus, defeating Skye was just like breathing to him.

"Hmph! A bastard who can't change his shit!"

"I don't shit~" Maximus teased.

"What shit? You disgusting bastard!" Skye smiled but still refuted.

Maximus just laughed at their interaction as he sat beside her.

"By the way, I'm about to go into the Abyss Realm for the mandatory mission," Maximus said seriously.

"Is that so..." Skye frowned as she suddenly thought of this.

Skye also went to the Abyss Realm in her previous lives.

However, 70 percent of the time, she died without burial.

Although it was thanks to her reckless nature.

The casualty rate of students coming to the Abyss is still 30 percent.

Of course, most of them are ordinary students, not core students.

Even then, if you're unlucky and encounter some Lord-level abyss, you are finished.

A Tier 9 protection token can only buy you some time before it disintegrates.

During this time, you can only hope the Apex Sovereign in rescue appears in time.

"Do you want to come with me?" Maximus asked expectantly.

Many years ago, Skye could already advance to Tier 7 whenever she wanted.

But because Skye still wanted to train herself, she suppressed her realm.

Hearing Maximus's suggestion, Skye thought for a while and nodded.

"Then I'll go with you..."

"Hey, it seems you're still worried about me," Maximus teased.

"Hmph! It's because I will lack a punching bag once you leave." Skye blushed a little and reasoned.

Truthfully, Skye had a little feeling for Maximus.

As a man who can defeat her, even against all odds.

How can a battle maniac like her not fall?

Maximus was also very talented; reaching Tier 9 should be a sure thing.

As for reaching Tier 10 and above, Skye is not so sure.

However, Maximus's mysteriousness gives her a little bit of confidence.

She had a hunch that in the future, she would have a companion by his side exploring the vast void, visiting all dimensions.

"Then I'll wait for you~" Maximus, not missing any chances, took her hand and promised vaguely.

Skye also blushed, letting Maximus hold her hands.

"Then you better be patient," Skye said, looking into his eyes intently.

"Don't worry, no matter how long, I'll always be there..."
