--- Chapter 67 ---

A day later.

The Jia Ma Empire's victory shook the North-West Region of the Dou Qi Continent.

All powerful factions in the North-West Region besides the two empires predicted the Chu Yuan Empire to win because they had half-step Dou Ancestor(Poison Grandmaster).

Surprisingly, Jia Ma Empire won in just ten days.

Ten freaking days!

Most flying magical beasts couldn't even travel fast enough to reach the battlefield between Jia Ma Empire and Chu Yuan Empire, but the reality is surprising.

Now, they are curious how Jia Ma won so effortlessly.

Some people tried to inquire about more details and were "weirdly." faced with the "Golden Monarch." title every time asking the surviving soldiers.

Bizarre enough, both empires have different reactions to the Golden Monarch's appearance.

The Jia Ma Empire admired the Golden Monarch for its heroic deeds.

On the other hand, the Chu Yuan Empire trembled in fear when someone mentioned the demon's title. After all, the Golden Monarch killed their leader with one strike.

People are speechless but can't find a damn clue about this hero called Golden Monarch. Not to mention his identity is completely unknown besides the title.

Golden Monarch seems to disappear and appears like a ghost, giving him another moniker.

The Jia Ma Empire's Guardian. His legendary presence may or may not save the empire from outsider's advance for the next one hundred years because the existence of Dou Ancestor is alarming to everyone's belief.

One could wonder what kind of faces these people would make if they knew the Golden Monarch they were talking about was a fifteen years old young man who entered the 1-star Dou Emperor Realm.

Well, they would never know.

...

...

Baek Ain rested on the Heavenly Gryphon's back and enjoyed the breeze with a smile. Lan Rou and Yi Xian hugged him on each side, pouting because of what he conducted to them five days ago.

"Hmph, this bastard... Why did you send us a message from the parasite hivemind?" Yi Xian punched Baek Ain's right arm.

"Yeah..." Lan Rou added while doing the same.

They blushed because the sensation lingered for five days until Baek Ain emerged victorious on the side of the battlefield. This cruel bastard left them hanging for five days. Five days!

Baek Ain laughed wryly, as a parasitic hive mind is like a complex blood link. So, He isn't completely innocent because his parasite mirrors his instinct as a man. And technically, all the parasites are part of him.

However, let's change the topic.

Baek Ain faked a cough and said, "Congratulations, Yi Xian. I see that you have reached 1-Star Dou king."

"You too, Rou. Reaching 3-Star Dou King is no joking matter."

"At this point, you two could reach up to me."

"Hmm..." Yi Xian rolled her eyes at this guy's aversion. Even though she loved Baek Ain, this goofy side of him was always too apparent.

'What do you mean by reaching up to you? Our cultivation speed is fast, but compared to yours. It's snail-like.'

And the only person who is optimistic after Baek Ain's statement is Lan Rou.

Lan Rou nodded and returned, "Don't worry. I'll try my best to chase you, Ain."

"We could go back when you can rely on me."

"You were so adorable back then. Telling me to stop forcing you to do 1000 push-ups, hehe~!" She giggled, leaving Baek Ain speechless.

"Oh, Ain was such a crybaby before?" Yi Xian asked with a smirk on her face.

"He is." Lan Rou nodded as she started telling Yi Xian about Baek Ain's training less than a year ago.

"..." Baek Ain.

[You dug your own grave, host]

'Shut it, Alicia.' Baek Ain sighed in defeat.

After getting exposed by Lan Rou, Baek Ain tries to maintain a poker face in front of Yi Xian. However, the venomous Yi Xian teased him throughout the journey to the Miteer Family Mansion.

And Baek Ain teased her back indirectly.

...

...

'Anyway, open my rewards.' Baek Ain saw the Jia Ma Imperial Family from afar.

[Right away, host]

[Rewarding 1x Random Skill(Guaranteed S), 2x Random Skill, and 1x Broken Spatial Tome(SS)]

[Opening...]

[You have received]

[Penetration(S)]

[Cursed Left Eye(F)]

[Golden Rod(F)]

[Name: Penetration]

[Type: Passive]

[Grade: S]

[Description: Penetration is a skill that allows its wielder to bypass any defense(must-be-targeted first) with a 5% base rate. Still, the stronger the enemy, the lower possibility of Penetration getting triggered]

[Name: Cursed Left Eye]

[Type: Active]

[Grade: F]

[Description: Allowed the wielder to see 1 second into the future with the side-effect of light headache and mental deterioration upon rapid usage]

[Name: Golden Rod]

[Type: Passive]

[Grade: F]

[Description: Your PP is the Golden Rod. Any woman with weak wills and poor self-restraint will be swayed by it, urging them to do lewd things to you. Since your Golden Rod is only F Grade, the effect wouldn't be significant, but it sure is effective in some scenarios]

[Ding! You have acquired a new achievement, "Lucky Bastard."]

[Oh, wow. You didn't know how envious those perverted main characters could be if they knew you possessed this skill. What a lucky bastard]

"..." Baek Ain felt conflicted. He even forgot to check Penetration and Cursed Left Eye because Golden Rod left too much of a first impression.

He's happy, of course.

Who wouldn't?

He could make his wives happy.

However, at the same time, Baek Ain felt weird because Nirvana Touch is already a powerful skill. Now, this Golden Rod would push that boundary even further beyond.

Like, literally.

[Stop fantasizing, host. You can try the skill later as you have a freaking harem]

[Focus on the last reward]

'O-Oh, okay.' Baek Ain cleared his throat, feeling somewhat dry.

He focused on the last reward from Jia Ma's Victory quest and mumbled solemnly, 'This is...'

[Name: Broken Spatial Tome]

[Type: Universal Resource]

[Grade: SS]

[Description: Broken Spatial Tome is a unique crystal formed in a chaotic place filled with extreme Spatial Disturbance. In a literal way, it's the crystallization of Space Elements.]

[The "Broken Spatial Tome." can be used to understand "Spatial Strength." and "Spatial Bending." to a certain degree because one's talent varies from each other]

'This is nice... The start of Dou Ancestor Realm is when one could gain "Spatial Strength." to do things like hold oneself in the air or even create locks in space, where a person can only escape after breaking the lock.'

'If I comprehend "Spatial Strength." early, even Dou Ancestor will get caught off guard.' Baek Ain smiled in satisfaction.

'Not only that, when one reaches Dou Venerate, one gains an almost perfect knowledge of the so-called "Spatial Strength." and can use it in a far more versatile manner than any Dou Venerate ever could. And That's why most of Doy Venerate is "directly." characterized by the ability to form wormholes or a gape in space-time.'

Rubbing his hand in expectation, Baek Ain couldn't wait to train his "Spatial Strength." as soon as possible.

Lan Rou tapped Baek Ain's shoulder and called his name, "Ain?"

"What?" Baek Ain awakened from his excited thoughts.

"We have arrived." Lan Rou smiled at him.

"AIN~!!!" Someone suddenly hugged Baek Ain, tackling him from Heavenly Gryphon's back.

"You did it!"

"You actually did it. I love you~!!"

Baek Ain looked up and saw Yafei crying in happiness because her home won't get destroyed by the neighboring empire. "I love you too." He replied while caressing her silky blonde hair.

"Believe in your fiance, I said."

"I know..." Yafei wiped her tears, but more came.

Baek Ain wiped her tears and added, "Don't cry. My wife is the most beautiful when she smiles."

"Ain~!" Yafei hugged him, releasing a pink hue all over.

Cough! Cough!

Lan Rou and Yi Xian coughed, staring at this couple enviously.

Yafei giggled and created a silver thread, pulling her fellow wives into a group hug. "Hehe, come here~! Let's celebrate tonight and deepen our bond."

"Our handsome hubby needs some pampering after the long day's work, you know?"

"H-Hmph, if you so." Yi Xian swayed her head while hugging Baek Ain.

"Agree." Lan Rou stared at Baek Ain with a lewd stare, licking her supple red lips in expectation.

Baek Ain laughed wryly and replied, "Let's take a bath first."

That night, Baek Ain has foursome and literal orgies with his lovely soon-to-be wives thanks to his new skill.

And yes, Golden Rod did not disappoint.
