The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 440 - 335: Puzzle Piece (2)



After achieving the milestone of uniting the Demon Realm, Lynn set the date for the enshrinement ceremony on May 20th in the Demon Realm.

To be fair, he also scheduled the enshrinement ceremony in the Miracle World for May 21st.

As for why the Demon Realm first and then the Miracle World, it wasn’t because of Lynn’s favoritism; it was simply because everything was ready in the Demon Realm, while in the Miracle World there was still some unfinished business...

For some unknown reason, despite being separate worlds, there was no time difference between them. Even within the same world, a hemisphere apart can result in a time difference of several hours, yet between the Miracle World and the Demon Realm, there wasn’t.

Perhaps there was before, as some ancient records in the history books of the two worlds occasionally didn’t match, but in Lynn’s present time, the two worlds had merged almost entirely.

Two days, two enshrinement ceremonies, marrying wives from two worlds.

The Demon Realm had the Seven Great Demon Kings, the Joyful Witch, plus a Demon Dragon Princess named Yili, totaling fifteen wives.

The Miracle World was similar, with Vivian, Catherine, the Xiya Silvie sisters, the Cleia Shifflin Windsor duo, the knight partners Helena and Natasha, plus the little Dragon Maiden Eve, the other Princesses of the Five Kingdoms, and a little "sour radish," also making up fifteen wives.

Quite a coincidence, the number of wives in both worlds is the same, so if they start arguing, they could have one-on-one face-offs...

Of course, Lynn wouldn’t let them argue; there would be none of the dramatic push and pull, love triangles, or heartbreak that you find in urban novels happening here.

After all, the era is different, the backgrounds are different, and their statuses, even more so.

Even an Emperor could have three palaces, six courtyards, seventy-two concubines, with three thousand beauties in the harem, and Lynn, a True God, only gathered thirty; who could say a word against it?

However, the enshrinement ceremony was indeed important to Lynn, as it represented one... err, thirty official titles, so from then on, he calling them "wives" wouldn’t just be out of affection.

Although the enshrinement ceremony isn’t a wedding, it can definitely be considered akin to receiving a marriage certificate, whether it counts as being married... well, kind of.

Moreover, Lynn actually needed these two enshrinement ceremonies because, as he became increasingly knowledgeable, his thinking more and more expansive, and his ideas bolder, he had a growing premonition that the time left to him might not be much.

Therefore, he found it necessary to get married first, otherwise, it might end up like going home to get married after winning the war...

This death flag was something he’d been actively trying to avoid, and now it felt like it was the most likely time for it to manifest.

...

...

The time quickly shifted to May 19th, just one day before the Demon Realm’s Imperial Consort enshrinement ceremony.

But Lynn was still in the Miracle World at this time, and not on the temporarily settled Divine Origin Continent, but at the popular check-in location on the Divine Protection Continent — the Elf Forest.

This was because Angela requested Lynn to bring her here.

Angela, also known as the little "sour radish," was among the last of Lynn’s acquaintances, and understandably, their relationship was the shallowest.

Even Princess Eve of the Six Kingdoms could be ranked ahead of her, as they were promised earlier. Moreover, Angela wasn’t even nominated as Divine Consort initially, and it was Xiya who recommended her.

In the storyline that should have been, Angela probably should have sparked a romance with Lynn first, and then naturally become a part of the harem.

But Lynn’s Ascension to Divinity happened too quickly; it was too fast for him to have a sweet romance with every wife within less than a year in the Human World.

Nevertheless, during the process of reserving a spot and then actual interaction, the beautiful and lively "sour radish" stirred Lynn’s heartstrings.

As for whether Angela was infatuated with Lynn, recalling her discussing her ideal partner with Xiya...

"The man I want should be a hero, also handsome and dashing, with a remarkable aura, gentle and caring since I don’t cook; he’d best be able to cook..."

"Moreover... moreover, my mother died in childbirth, and my father was heartbroken by her death, passing away eventually, so the man I seek must already have a child because I can’t bear children."

"The child should preferably be a daughter, as daughters are well-behaved and adorable. If there are two, that would be even better, so I can hold one in each hand..."

This was what Xiya secretly disclosed to Lynn while he was accompanying her and Hilvy on a walk through the forest. Although there was no direct reference to him, Lynn felt that Angela might as well return his ID card to him.

Reading out someone’s ID number is quite an invasion of privacy, something that might not be illegal in the Miracle World but is best to avoid.

Perhaps it was simply natural that when a charismatic, promiscuous savior god and a hero-worshipping beauty formed a close bond, the result was so apparent that it didn’t need writing out.

Today was Lynn and Angela’s first date alone, set in the Elf Forest, the place where they first met, though at that time they weren’t connected, and the only binding might have been that her name was among the Saintess candidates, and so was Angela’s.

"Lynn, coming back here, I feel like I’ve been dreaming lately."

Angela didn’t choose to date Lynn in the Elf Acropolis, despite it being her home, with her family and friends, and the city being more suitable for romantic escapades than the desolate forest meant for mere strolls and hunts... ugh...

In any case, Angela had her reasons for selecting a date in the Elf Forest, knowing this day wasn’t just about a date—there was likely to be a second half tonight.

After all, the day after tomorrow marked the enshrinement as Divine Consort, and she was the final piece of the puzzle; Lynn wouldn’t leave her solitary on a special seat or procrastinate until the deadline before fighting the battle, considering he was a True God, definitely quite formidable—surely he’d allow her a day to recover, right?

"You might have dreamt for weeks, but I... from the moment I arrived in this world, it’s felt like living in a dream."

The two strolled along the leaf-covered path in the Elf Forest, their hands naturally linking.

This sense of reality, accompanied by someone affectionate by his side, made Lynn aware that all he had now wasn’t just a dream.

"I don’t care whether you’re dreaming the same as me. Either way, my dream has come true, and my devotion to Lady Goddess of Nature and Life wasn’t in vain; she truly blessed me!"

As someone qualified to be a Saintess candidate, Angela’s devotion to the Goddess of Nature and Life was undoubtedly sincere, and with her cheerful declaration, Lynn found himself with no inclination to refute.

For he didn’t know whether the Goddess of Nature and Life possessed the divine roles of matchmaker or Cupid, but without the Divine Oracle Leaf gifted by her that endured one lightning strike for him, Lynn might have missed the chance to connect with Angela.

Considering the real situation, their bond was indeed thanks to the significant efforts of the Goddess of Nature and Life.

"So you brought me here to witness our love under the guidance of the Goddess of Nature and Life..."

"That’s part of it, but not entirely!"

Lynn: "??"

Suggest saying it in English, I can’t quite catch that.

"I mean, I want the Lady Goddess to witness my happiness now, but not that other... intimate happiness!"

Angela’s explanation clarified it for Lynn, wanting to show off their love to the Lady Goddess, but not make the Lady watch a movie...

It shows your respect for the Goddess of Nature and Life, only serving up your love while avoiding giving her an eyeful.

However, perhaps you’re overthinking it; deities likely aren’t equipped with real-time monitoring over the Lower Realm, unless you choose to pray to the Goddess of Nature and Life during those moments, otherwise, how could she witness anything?
