“Sure, but when your strength reaches the level of a Ninth-Tier Monarch, I’ll happily let you be the one protecting us sisters.”

Kael only took Robert’s words as a joke. She did not really take them to heart. Furthermore, Robert now had the Divine Sword in the Stone, making him the next Pope of the church. Therefore, Kael felt closer to Robert.

“Then, it’s a deal.” Robert’s tone was full of strong confidence.

He was relaxed right now.

He realized that using the Divine Sword in the Stone as a cover, he could just blame the sword for anything miraculous that happens to him. This way, no one would suspect that he had something like the system.

Kael quickly accepted this explanation. After all, the Divine Sword in the Stone was an enigmatic entity. There was no one in this world who truly understood the Divine Sword in the Stone.

Therefore, Kael was easily fooled by Robert.

Kael was stunned for a moment. She could tell that Robert’s tone was filled with confidence, almost as if he was actually planning on doing it.

“This kid can’t be serious, right

“Does he not know how many obstacles he had to overcome to become a Ninth-Tier Monarch? This process was extremely difficult!”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first, sister Kael.”

Hearing the beeping sound from the phone, Kael smiled. She suddenly realized that Robert had really changed. He had become completely different from before. Although the previous Robert loved to joke around, when speaking to him, people would always feel that he had low self-esteem and no self-confidence.

Compared to the past, the current Robert was a completely different person. The self-confidence that burst out from him made her feel very gratified.

Perhaps this was really the effect of the Divine Sword in the Stone.

As she smiled, Kael turned around to return. She did not care about the church’s troubles at all. If they could not even deal with this little trouble, then the church did not deserve to exist.

As Robert ran, the burden on his heart was finally relieved. He was afraid that he would really encounter senior sister Kael. Although the system hid it very well, he did not know how powerful those four were. It was better to be safe than sorry. In any case, the existence of the system must not be exposed.

Of course, Robert could also understand. Now that he was the new master of the Divine Sword in the Stone and also the candidate for the next pope, neither the church nor Kael would allow him to remain a bronze-level loser. Therefore, the only solution was that the church could do was to increase Robert’s strength by any means necessary. Kael would even personally teach him if need be.

By then, his days of freedom would be over.

Of course, Robert knew full well that he would definitely not stop at the just the Sword of Fairies bloodline. His talent allowed him to fuse all kinds of bloodlines, which meant that he could awaken even more bloodlines in the future. If he stayed by Kael’s side, he would lose the chance to awaken other bloodlines.

At the same time, Kael quickly returned to Audrey and the others.

Mulan frowned when she saw Kael returning alone.

“Kael, why are you the only one back? Where’s Robert? Why didn’t he come back with you?”

Kael walked to the table and poured herself a full glass of water. She raised her head and downed the entire glass.

Then, she wiped her mouth happily.

“Ahhh! That was satisfying! I think can drink up the entire Atlantic Ocean now.”

She picked up the kettle and poured herself another glass.

“Kael, you haven’t answered my question.” Mulan stood up and walked behind Kael. She stared at Kael’s beautiful back with a strange expression.

“Robert? I didn’t bring him back. He said that the Divine Sword in the Stone wanted to help him gain experience. I didn’t see a problem with that, so I let him off for now.”

Although Kael said it in a nonchalant manner, she had made the decision after careful consideration.

“What! How could you even fall for a lie made for children? Kael, are you insane?!”

Mulan was extremely agitated when she heard this. Her jaw dropped to the ground. This was too ridiculous! It was simply unbelievable. An actual Ninth-Tier Monarch, an entity who had lived for hundreds of years, was actually fooled by a 17-year-old brat. What the hell?

“Kael, you don’t actually believe that, right?!” Even Audrey stared at Kael in disbelief. It was no surprise that she had such a big reaction. If she were in Kael’s shoes, there was no way she would believe such nonsense.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Kael was baffled when he saw Audrey and Mulan’s reaction.

“Kael, we’re just…”

Fubuki, who had been focused on reading, opened her red lips and interrupted Audrey and Muran’s conversation. She looked at Kael with her wise eyes.

“Kael, you’re not an idiot, you definitely wouldn’t believe such nonsense. Is there another reason why you had to do this?”

Kael looked at Fubuki with gratitude. She was indeed the most observant of the four sisters.

No matter what the situation was, she could make rational and calm judgments and analyses.

“In any case, I can’t think of a reason why you would act like this, Kael.”

Mulan was a little unhappy. She was very interested in the awakened bloodline in Robert’s body. She had planned to satisfy her curiosity after Kael brought Robert back.

Other than that, if Kael had dragged Robert back, then they would have an heir. Taking care of the world was not as easy as it looked. Each of them had to supervise several foreign gateways at the same time. This was very taxing on them. In order for the world to function normally and prevent an invasion of otherworldly beings, they had spent a lot of effort without any complaints. However, this did not mean that they were machines with no feelings.

Mulan really wanted someone else to share the burden with.

“Kael, did Robert hit on you? Is that why you… I’m warning you, don’t have any inappropriate thoughts towards Robert. You’re already an old hag, don’t even think of laying your filthy cougar hands on Robert. If this sort of thing gets exposed, you would embarrass Robert!”

Audrey’s urgent voice pulled Mulan’s thoughts back to reality. Her jaw dropped.

She looked at Audrey in disbelief. She thought to herself.

“Huh? Why does it feel like you’re the one who’s more worried about Robert?

“???”

When Kael heard Audrey’s words, she was also a little dumbfounded.

“Sister Audrey, what are you…”

“Ahem, nothing. I just wanted to remind you not to forget our mission,” Audrey said seriously as she lowered her voice.

The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward as the room fell into silence.

A few seconds later.

“Why are you guys looking at me like that?”

Audrey’s voice suddenly became extremely deep. From the other girls’ perspectives, Audrey’s entire face started to darken. Her pair of scarlet eyes glimmered with a dazzling red light. At this moment, Audrey’s entire body was emitting a dense dark aura.

The room immediately turned cold as winter.
