A week had passed since Roa kicked the bucket.

9 AM, at the iron gate of the villa.

Haru adjusted the collar of the blue-haired girl before him, chuckling softly.

“The magecraft I taught you—it’s best not to use it within the Church; it’ll cause trouble. If you get bullied, go find a little brat named Caren in the Eighth Sacrament—That little devil is full of ideas…”

“I suddenly realize, Haru~ you’re even more long-winded than Dad~” Elesia’s face flushed red. She was quite dissatisfied with Haru treating her like a child.

If only Haru were present, Elesia wouldn’t have said it so directly.

However, Altrouge, smiling beside them with the air of a ‘main wife,’ reminded her of certain things, making her feel awkward all over, wishing she could immediately interrupt Haru’s admonitions and flee.

“That’s true. Elesia is sixteen now, already an ‘adult’…” Haru lowered his head, whispering ambiguously into Elesia’s ear with a light laugh.

Her ear suddenly assaulted, Elesia’s face instantly flushed crimson.

She immediately recalled last night’s crazy activities, quickly lifted her hand, gently pushed Haru away, and looked nervously at Altrouge, who was watching with a teasing expression.

“Well, I’ll be going then. Remember to come see me at the Church.” Elesia said with a blush, then hurriedly ran off.

Haru smiled, watching the blue-haired pretty figure hobbling away until she met up with the Church’s Executors.

“Oh, I didn’t expect the bread girl you fancied to actually be a Saint? Eh, that’s right too. How could she not be a Saint if you fancied her?” Altrouge, standing by, teased. At the end, her face showed a hint of realization.

“Surprisingly, I can’t refute that.” Haru shrugged.

Honestly, he hadn’t expected Elesia to be a Church Saint with a stigma on her lower abdomen. But then again—for Roa to recover to his peak strength using her formidable body—it would be strange if she weren’t special.

“Hmph, a female knight who embarks on the path of strength to stand by her lover’s side? Quite interesting—Aren’t you afraid she’ll fall for someone else in the Church? Don’t modern novels all write it that way?” Altrouge teased playfully.

It seemed Haru’s teasing about ‘magical girls’ had sparked Altrouge’s curiosity about otaku culture. Recently, she had been constantly absorbing knowledge in this area, even spending millions of dollars to buy video games.

Haru expressed great concern.

Could it be that a Nasuverse version of a NEET princess was about to be cultured? The same Moon Princess, the same black-haired beauty—it felt strangely fitting.

“Who dares to snatch food from the tiger’s mouth while I—the Church’s head honcho, am here?”

Haru reached out, lightly patting Altrouge’s small, perky rear, then chuckled softly, waving at the departing Elesia and the bowing Executors.

“The head of a Church that advocates monogamy is actually a god who messes around with female believers in private? Is this what the industry calls ‘powerful people get the girls’?” The attack on her rear made Altrouge’s face flush slightly, but her mouth continued to belittle Haru.

“—Altrouge, what are you targeting me for today?” Haru shrugged, speaking helplessly.

Their interactions these days had long made Haru realize that every time Altrouge targeted him, it was eighty percent likely he had done something to displease her.

The Black Princess of True Ancestors was not a woman who would suppress her desire for revenge—if something displeased her, she would retaliate the very next day.

Regarding this, Haru indicated it was still within acceptable limits—

—If Altrouge kept it bottled up inside, it would actually make him more uneasy. After all, the longer a volcano is suppressed, the more ferocious the eruption of its anger.

“…Last night, I heard that little girl’s moans all night long—Did you think setting up a barrier while playing with other girls beside me meant I wouldn’t find out?” Altrouge spoke unhappily.

“Ahem, ahem.”

Haru coughed dryly twice, a trace of awkwardness flashing across his face, which then quickly returned to calm—He slowly lifted his hand, wrapped it around Altrouge’s waist, and allowed her soft little hands to pinch the soft flesh at his waist, venting her dissatisfaction.

Just then, a violent impact sound suddenly echoed.

Haru and Altrouge turned around simultaneously, looking at Arcueid, who was pouting and kicking open the villa’s first-floor main door with dissatisfaction.

“Haru, although my power has recovered, why does Roa’s aura still exist? Didn’t you say you could kill him that one time?” Arcueid lifted her slender leg clad in white over-the-knee socks and rushed directly before Haru.

“He probably didn’t die completely. Perhaps his earlier self-destruction was a feint, and he secretly reincarnated somewhere,” Haru lightly rubbed his slightly stubbled chin, speaking with ‘certainty’.

Actually, Roa had died completely. However, for the seven days since Roa’s self-destruction, Haru had been continuously replicating Roa’s soul, conducting various soul research.

Moreover, he occasionally deliberately released Roa’s aura for Arcueid to sense, which was why Arcueid currently looked so dissatisfied.

“Roa didn’t die completely? Looks like I can’t return to the Millennium Castle for a short while…” Arcueid lowered her head, lightly frowning her willow-leaf eyebrows, speaking gravely.

The corners of Haru’s mouth lifted slightly.

This was precisely his purpose in deliberately releasing Roa’s aura.

Every time Arcueid awakened from the Millennium Castle, it was to subjugate Roa. Once the subjugation was complete, she would naturally go back to sleep. To keep the White Princess around, Haru had truly taken great pains.

“Hmph hmph~” Altrouge hummed lightly twice, crossed her arms, and looked teasingly at Haru. Clearly, with her countless more years of experience compared to Arcueid, she had obviously noticed the abnormality.

Although she also hoped to spend more time with her sister, if she could exchange this secret for some extra compensation, why wouldn’t she try?

Haru secretly made a ‘shushing’ gesture towards Altrouge, then extended three fingers, indicating the share of snacks.

Altrouge shook her head, lifted her fair arm, and her small palm, with its five slender fingers, moved slightly, indicating that five liters of blood were needed.

Haru silently nodded, then lightly patted Altrouge’s perky rear, indicating that one intimate act would seal the deal.

Subsequently, the two exchanged a smile, having reached a ‘private’ agreement.

Arcueid, lost in thought with her head down, never imagined the two before her had made a ‘dirty’ deal to deceive her right under her nose.

Suddenly, Arcueid lifted her head, looking eager to try something.

“Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore. We’ll talk when Roa appears. Weren’t we going shopping today?”
