The next day.

Chloe, who had basically recovered mobility and just needed rest, went out for a trip.

As soon as she reached the hospital entrance, she saw Aisha standing there hesitantly, looking somewhat scared.

“Aisha, what are you doing here?”

“Ah~ oh, I, I want to go home.”

“…”

Chloe looked up at the entrance of the sanatorium, then looked at Aisha.

A moment later, Aisha’s face flushed red.

“I, I’m not waiting for you at all…”

“Ah, right, just happened to come out of the hospital, but want to take a walk with me? Maybe we’re going the same way.”

Aisha pouted without speaking.

But seeing Chloe move ahead, she hurriedly ran to support him, saying:

“Aren’t you still injured? Why are you running around?”

“It’s not life-threatening, if you let me lie in bed any longer, I’d rather die.”

“Then, then shall I support you?”

“Sure, by the way, how’s the Extreme Association doing?”

“Hmm, now the main members from the Fantasy Association are all registered with the Extreme Association.”

“Great, ours are also registered there, right?”

“Yes, the association’s rules changed, it used to stop recruiting then no newcomers were allowed in.”

“This way, the two associations now have a practical crossover relationship.”

Chloe inwardly breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The Fantasy Association of the Ethereal Emblem isn’t a mysterious association in the true sense, it’s more like a club funded by corporations in the previous life.

And every year during recruitment, the club members themselves are one of the main recruit targets.

Under normal circumstances, this naming right is not very useful.

But once abnormal situations arise, there will be earth-shattering changes.

The simplest example is [Reversed Celestial Spirit].

Even if it was originally just an object funded by the association, if the club itself produced a talented person, and this person was sought after by others, the corporation backing can legitimately claim the club is protected by the company.

The Fantasy Association of the Ethereal Emblem is the same.

Moreover, the situation of the Fantasy Association is even more special.

As a trump card left by the King of Redemption in The Stars, it is likely known by some of the top forces about the real origin of the Fantasy Association.

Before Tiffany returned to the Locke Empire, the two had reached an agreement on Simulated Earth Divine Rune, Star Element Technology, and advanced Demon Eye transformation technology.

Next, these three technologies will be authorized to the Locke Empire.

Once these technologies are rolled out based on the Locke Empire, just ignoring the highest-level technology, even the advancement of basic technology will surely draw the attention of all nations on the continent.

The technology that only existed among a small number of adventurers will spread like wildfire instantly.

Just like Deepseek of the past life, this thing actually has no entry barriers when operating, and will inevitably enter the folk quickly, becoming one of the most basic technologies to create an Extraordinary.

Do not underestimate this little improvement, it seems to have no use for high-level Extraordinaries.

But once covering a wide enough area, the impact might even be worse than the birth of a Saint Realm.

Of course.

Such benefits aren’t something the current Extreme Association can bear.

This led to the fusion of associations at two school levels.

The headquarters of the Fantasy Association can shelter the Fantasy Association of the Ethereal Emblem, and the Fantasy Association of the Ethereal Emblem is also closely integrated with the Extreme Association.

This name makes the Fantasy Association a de facto protector of the Extreme Association.

Although in order to promote the three major technologies, the Extreme Association certainly still has to give up part of the interests, there will never be a problem of being completely taken advantage of anymore.

As for whether it will be swallowed by the Fantasy Association… Chloe thinks some people overthink it.

After all, this is just part of the industry related to the Seven Heroes.

As long as the meat stays in the pot, they have ways to implement management rights.

Not to mention a certain shameless person, who also disguised himself as Mr. Charles to survey everything closely.

“So no need to worry too much.” Aisha said softly, “There won’t be any big problems.”

“Still need to be cautious, after all, now you are about to prepare for the transition to Demigod.” Chloe shook his head and said, “You won’t be able to quickly digest Demigod-level resources in the short term, but you must prepare everything in advance.”

Aisha pursed her lips and nodded.

A moment later, she hesitated and said: “Regarding this matter, do I need to mention it to the family?”

Aisha’s father is also an influential noble with real military achievements; various foundations have been built over generations.

Previously, her and her elder brother’s training was small-scale trial runs, essentially without leveraging family power.

But now the situation is different.

She has reached the peak of Legend, now considered to have half a foot in the Demigod threshold.

At this time, the family’s connections would be useful.

After all, from the Demigod level onwards, some resources cannot be acquired by simply exploring the Maze.

In fact, the deeper layers of the Abyss of Woe are too dangerous.

Directly acquiring Demigod Extraordinary Traits from inside is actually a lower cost-effective method.

Most of the Demigod Extraordinary Traits on the regular market were obtained through safer means.

After all, not everyone has the over-level combat strength in the Saint Realm.

Chloe and company are still a bit overpowered.

Hearing Aisha’s words, Chloe fell into thought.

Actually, if possible, he didn’t want to borrow the strength of Aisha’s family.

Borrowing the related strength means owing a favor.

Debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay.

Seeming to have figured something out, clever Aisha glared at Chloe with mild annoyance and said:

“Whether or not I ask my parents for help doesn’t affect my big brother’s matter.”

Aisha’s elder brother, Oben Mendeleev, is the heir to the next generation of the Mendeleev Family.

However, a few years ago, due to an accident, Oben Mendeleev was admitted to a sanatorium, trapped in an endless slumber.

The means to treat Oben Mendeleev were too complex.

Even the Mendeleev Family didn’t have the resources for this; they could only watch as their eldest son lay in a crystal coffin, waiting for the end.

Later, Chloe stepped in and saved their big brother-in-law, essentially making the Mendeleev Family owe her a favor in a significant sense.

Additionally, Chloe showered Aisha with incredible support, nurturing the youngest daughter of the Mendeleevs to the Legendary level… bluntly put, even for a noble family with great merits, cultivating a Legend is exceedingly difficult, let alone a Demigod.

If Aisha and Chloe had no relationship, just owing this favor alone would have the entire Mendeleev Family prostrating themselves endlessly in gratitude.

And only like this, will the Mendeleev Family not become too upset later when Chloe takes all her lovers away because “their youngest daughter’s lover isn’t the only lover she has.”

There is no way they wouldn’t have any objections at heart.

This is the youngest daughter they have doted on since childhood.

But after Chloe had helped their family so much, at least… it wouldn’t make Aisha feel too torn between her parents and relatives.

Some filthy words and unpleasant matters could also be nipped in the bud early.

This is why Chloe is unwilling to use the power from Aisha’s side.

If that favor were reduced, what about her grand plan for a happy ending?

“No, no need to worry too much about this issue.” Aisha sneakily glanced at Chloe and said, “Just, just find an opportunity to come back with me to see my parents.”

Chloe looked at Aisha with amusement and said, “Why don’t you say you want to employ the sovereign to command the vassals?”

“Where is there a sovereign?”

“Being a pregnant mommy, would the family really bear to let you just abort the child when you return?”

Aisha shyly punched Chloe’s chest, “So you want to do it like in the dream?”

She was referring to Chloe’s action of getting on the bus before buying the ticket in the simulation.

Her own lover, truly a little rascal.

Just looking at him, Aisha’s gaze couldn’t help but become entranced again, “So, do you want to try?”

“Hmm?”

“As you said, turn me into a pregnant mommy.”

Chloe looked at Aisha, who was blushing and staring intently at him, then subconsciously coughed:

“How about we have dinner first?”

“First… first, we eat, and then what will we do~?”

“Just eat, eat, and afterwards…”

Mentioning this, both of them showed rare shyness.

“…so shall we… shall we… do it? Do you want to…”

Thinking back, Aisha wanted to invite Chloe for a meal yesterday, but it didn’t happen at all.

So perhaps postponing yesterday’s idea to today would just be like a date.

Wanting to have dinner with him, not wanting to give him a chance to run away.

“Aisha, oh Aisha, didn’t you buy this lingerie to show him properly in the Maze, what a pity! Isn’t now a good time to wear it for him?”

While Aisha was still thinking about what kind of actions could keep Chloe around, someone had already willingly spoken up:

“How about we eat together today?”

In an instant, Aisha’s mind was filled with little stars, making her brain and body freeze.

“If you don’t have the appetite today, that’s okay too. We can reschedule…”

“No…”

“Hmm?”

“No way! I, I want to eat together!”

“Oh, that’s really great.” Chloe pinched the little junior sister’s cheek and said, “Then, Aisha, see you later.”

…

Location: Amber Hall, Aisha’s Room

Ding dong.

With the ring of the doorbell, Chloe called out, “Aisha, I’m here.”

He glanced at the ingredients he brought, wondering if he’d taken too much.

Aisha’s door quietly creaked open, and a shy voice came out:

“Wel- welcome~”

“Why did you suddenly ask me to bring wine as well? Didn’t you not drink alcohol…?!”

Chloe was momentarily stunned.

At the door, Aisha blushed slightly in her battle robe, unable to make eye contact with Chloe.

…

Time rewinds to the last night in the 15th-floor safe zone.

The night grew deeper.

In the girls’ dormitory, a group of girl delinquents gathered to chat.

“Doesn’t that kind of thing always seem the most interesting at times like this?”

“Ah? Are we really going to duel in risque outfits?”

“Damn it, the professor is still around, go easy, you all.”

Perhaps because the night was deep, a group of girls couldn’t resist the sleepiness and soon found a corner to lie down and sleep.

Only some girls, still discussing thrilling topics, were eagerly teasing each other’s experiences during the trip.
