Chapter 869 Settling Aleshia And Ella's Past
After enjoying his time with the Goddess, Lawrend left the core of the Human World. He reappeared atop the mountain and saw the angel and the old man still there.
"Y-Youngster, what happened?" he asked.
He had been anxiously waiting here for more than a day. The Human World was fixed, and it was as if nothing had happened. Yesterday's world collapse became a silly dream in their memories.
"The Goddess is now my woman," Lawrend replied and left.
The old man's mouth opened wide. His eyes met the angel's and the two of them were so shocked that they were speechless.
After leaving them stunned, Lawrend stopped above the Runic State. He quickly glanced at it and found no one with the bloodline of Aleshia and Ella.
"Aleshia, Ella."
Two maid hands appeared in the air, forming a portal shaped like a heart.
Aleshia and Ella flew out simultaneously, with magic coursing through their bodies.
"What—?"
Aleshia was about to ask Lawrend what they needed to do when she realized the silence in the air. She looked down and found a city right beneath their feet. For some reason, it felt very familiar to her.
Ella, too, had the same feeling, but it came from her blood.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"This is the Runic City of the Runic State."
Lawrend hovered in the air with them. He stared at them without saying a word. He allowed their brains to slowly work out what he was talking about.
"Master…"
Aleshia held a hand to her chest and stopped before him. Lawrend held her by the waist and hugged her.
"What happened with the Goddess, Master?" Ella asked.
Unlike Aleshia, she was levelheaded because she didn't feel that much attachment to this place.
"She is my ally now."
"So these are your women, huh."
Speak of the devil, and she shall come— the Goddess, Reavire, appeared in the air above them. She looked down at Aleshia and Ella with her arms crossed on her plentiful chest.
"A Maid?" Ella gawked.
She instantly connected the dots and widened her eyes as she turned to Lawrend.
"Master, you didn't turn her into your maid, right?" Ella asked, feeling like the world was about to collapse.
She and the others fully believed and expected that the fight with the Goddess would be the most brutal battle of their lives. Some of them were even ready to die for him.
Aleshia's tongue was tied as she stared at the Goddess. She developed a keen sense towards Lawrend's other women since she had basically watched him capture them like pok*mon.
"I was his first maid. What do you mean?" Reavire asked, furrowing her eyebrows and slightly turning her head.
"You…" Aleshia felt like the world was spinning when she heard Reavire's absurd words.
"I will explain it later." Lawrend looked at the two of them. They understood that there was more to this, so they shut their mouths despite the questions that wanted to escape their lips.
"I can leave the Human World now, you know?" Reavire said.
Lawrend looked at her, feeling tired already. He should have seen this coming.
"What are you doing here?"
"I sensed a portal open to another world and came to investigate. Why? Is that a problem?" Reavire asked, blinking innocently.
Lawrend didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After the memory alteration, she had become completely different. She had become lively and quite cute.
"I'm just settling some matters with Aleshia and Ella."
Lawrend didn't know what was on her mind. He watched her cautiously. He still had the power of the Spirit World with him, so it wouldn't be a problem if she attacked.
However, it was a different matter for Aleshia and Ella. They might be Divine Mages, but they were nothing compared to the power of a Shattered God like the Goddess.
"Hmm…"
Reavire observed him with eyes that said she didn't believe him.
After seeing that she didn't speak, Lawrend turned to Aleshia.
"You might have no relatives left…"
Lawrend didn't know how to say it better. He thought of many ways to say it, but this was the only one that felt right.
"..."
Aleshia and Ella stared at the city below. They then raised their heads and looked at Lawrend.
And as if they had planned it together, they both answered simultaneously.
"We have you and Zio, Master," said Aleshia and Ella.
Aleshia hugged him, and Ella flew over to do the same. They had been with him for many years already, so it was not wrong to say that he was their family now.
Not to mention…
"We also have our Sisters, Master. What are you talking about?" Aleshia added. She looked up at him and lightly hit his chest.
"..."
Lawrend took a deep breath. He was scared of their reactions because he didn't know how they would react.

When he heard their words and saw their faces, Lawrend smiled. He rubbed both of their heads together.
"Hmph."
Reavire snorted at the sidelines. She eyed the three of them with obvious jealousy spilling from her eyes.
"Do you want to join?" Lawrend asked and opened a spot with his arm.
"..."
Reavire shook her head and subtly glanced at the two.
Lawrend realized what she meant. She wanted to show her respect by giving them their own time.
Lawrend didn't quite understand how her head worked. He removed his eyes from Reavire and kept patting the two's heads.
Ella clearly loved it, as she had been receiving this kind of treatment since she was little. Aleshia, however, appeared upset as she frowned, but she didn't make any attempts to stop him.
"You two can go back and tell them the good news," Lawrend said warmly.
He could tell that these two had become strong after their life experiences.
"Yes, Master." Aleshia affirmed.
Lawrend opened another portal with the heart-shaped hands and sent them to his world.
With that, he was left standing there with Reavire's scrutinizing gaze.
He instinctively let out a dry cough in his anxiety.
