A New Rank (cont.)

"Although we are confident of winning, every soldier is a child of his parents."

"And aren't we also sending lives away?"

"You didn't seem like the sentimental person you used to be," Wang Jing said with a smile.

"Having a child has changed my mindset. At least, I can't imagine life without Ranran," Xia Annan said with a wry smile.

Looking at the pure white wine in the glass, Wang Jing slowly said, "All we can do is minimize casualties."

"Moreover, after the great change of gods, the entire Nordic region was shrouded in gloom."

"Only pain can make an idiot realize how stupid he is," Xia Annan said calmly.

Because of the internet.

In just half a day, the news of the Nordic countries declaring war on Flame Nation spread like wildfire thanks to media coverage.

Almost everyone knows.

However, the public attitudes towards the two countries are quite different.

The morale of the Flame Nation was high, and they felt this was a good opportunity to train their troops.

In contrast, in Northern Europe, confusion and fear shrouded the country.

Is fighting for evil gods truly their motivation for joining the army?

They can't find meaning in protecting what they're doing; perhaps all that's left is the thought of going back to reunite with their families.

Night

Ling Yuan's family

Ranran leaned against Ling Yuan's chest, quietly watching the news broadcast on TV.

She never dreamed that she would witness war firsthand.

"Brother Ling Yuan, are you really going?"

"Then I want to go with you!"

"That won't do."

"Why?"

"You are too weak. This battle is full of unstable factors, including Loki's god-killing weapon and the World Tree. We don't even know how many people on the other side have obtained the World Law."

"I would never let you take any risks without being absolutely certain."

"..."

"Then take this with you."

After a moment of silence, Ranran took the Poké Ball off her chest and placed it in Ling Yuan's hand.

"Having a seraph to share the burden will make things much easier."

"Okay, thank you." Ling Yuan smiled and patted Ranran's head.

"Brother Ling Yuan..."

Ranran, nestled in Ling Yuan's arms, tugged at his clothes.

She then buried her head in Ling Yuan's chest, her face flushed.

In an almost inaudible voice, she said, "Tonight, come to my room, okay..."

Upon hearing Ranran's words, Ling Yuan's pupils contracted slightly.

His pupils relaxed, and he gently grasped Ranran's slightly cold hand.

He then picked Ranran up in Princess carry.

Ranran's face immediately turned even redder.

She wrapped her arms around Ling Yuan's neck, her flushed face buried in Ling Yuan's shoulder.

But the scent emanating from the clothes was somewhat intoxicating to her.

Nothing happened that night.

The next day

The sun shines on the ground.

Ling Yuan slowly opened his eyes and felt something pressing on his chest.

Turning slightly, I saw a pretty face fast asleep.

Perhaps she was too tired, or perhaps she was recovering her energy, as she was breathing steadily.

Because of the sweat, all his hair was stuck to his face.

And pressing against his chest was Ranran's arm.

Seeing Ranran like this, Ling Yuan decided not to get out of bed.

I lay down and closed my eyes again.

Ling Yuan: "Brothers, I'm back."

Lightning Dragon Slayer: "Okay, next."

Ling Yuan: "Hmm, is it really that serious? I'm your savior, can't you kneel down and call me 'Dad'?"

Katarina: "Oh, this."

Lightning Dragon Slayer: "Get lost."

First Prince: "Ling Yuan, I heard that war is about to break out where you are?"

Ling Yuan: "Yeah, fighting those lousy gods from the Norse."

Veleslan: "The gods of Norse mythology? I want to participate! Ling Yuan, why didn't you tell me sooner that you had such a wonderful thing as a pantheon?"

Ling Yuan: "You didn't ask."

Veleslan: "..."

Ling Yuan: "Not only the Norse gods, I also have Gaia, the Earth Mother Goddess. Plus King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table."

Akame: "I hope you get struck by lightning."

Ling Yuan: "Sorry, I doubt I'll be able to hit him. Thor the Thunder God has already been killed by his uncle Loki."

Veleslan: "? What? Sol got killed? Or by Loki?"

He was stunned.

Even in his own world, Thor the Thunder God is considered a powerful being.

It's not surprising that he was killed, but it's surprising that Loki was the one who did it!

Maple: "I remember that in Ragnarok, Sol and Jörmungandr together."

Ling Yuan: "I've made some modifications. Odin is trapped in a certain place for some reason."

Ling Yuan: "Loki launched Ragnarok while Odin was away, and now the entire Asgard is under Loki's control."

Veleslan said, "???"

Maple: "Huh?"

Daigo: "Did Ragnarok succeed?"

Kayaba Akihiko: "This is really exciting news. Maybe the Group Owner's world is the fantasy world I've been longing for."

Lightning Dragon Slayer: "I don't understand, but it doesn't matter Ling Yuan, I'm going to kill a god."

Katarina: "In mythology, any weapon stained with the blood of a god possesses the power to slay gods. I want one too!"

Veleslan: "Throughout history, gods have always been supreme, and for humans to want to kill a god is nothing short of a fantasy."

Ling Yuan: "Veleslan, have you ever thought about using divine blood to create a divine garment?"

Veleslan: "What is the Divine Garment?"

Ling Yuan: "I have pictures, you can see for yourselves."

As he spoke, Ling Yuan displayed the Divine Cloth of Saint Seiya from his memory.

Katarina: "Wow, what kind of looks are these?! Wow!"

Even a girl like her was moved, let alone others.

Veleslan: "... To be honest, I'm tempted."

Ling Yuan: "But you can't fit into it."

Veleslan: "???"

Ling Yuan: "Please tell me your height loudly."

Akame: "Veleslan's height, I remember it's... pfft!"

Veleslan: "(▼plate▼#)"

Veleslan: "I swear in the name of the Sun God, wherever the sun shines, as long as the sun never dies, the Son of Man, Black Pupil, will find no target! He will be punished no matter how far away he is!"

Akame: "? Damn it, are you a dog?"

Ling Yuan: "Are you taking a dump?"

Asuna: "666"

Lightning Dragon Slayer: "We've matched up, we've matched up."

Katarina: "I'm totally smitten. I'm totally smitten with Black Pupil- neechan."

Akame: "..."

Akame: "Ling Yuan, Veleslan, don't let me run into you two, or I'll castrate you!"

The Epitaph of Salvation: "..."

Joachim: "..."

Herrscher of Reason: "If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear."

The Epitaph of Salvation: "..."

The Epitaph of Salvation: "Isn't the pressure on the Elysian Realm enough? There's still an empty water group?"

Herrscher of Reason: "Damn it, don't make me leave, or I'll smash your head in."

Katarina: "Let's go all out! Kiana, you're going to be brave!"

Eighth Princess: "Emmm"

Herrscher of Reason: "I've gained quite a few good things in the Elysian Realm. As for Kevin's weapon, hmph, just you wait, you unscrupulous Ancestor!"

The Epitaph of Salvation: "Oh? The Unscrupulous Ancestor?"

Kevin, sitting on the throne, smiled slightly.

Haven't seen you for a few days, you've grown wings, huh?

The Epitaph of Salvation: "Have you forgotten that things from the Elysian Realm cannot be brought out?"

"..."

Kiana, who had been tricked into becoming a fangirl by Elysia, was stunned when she saw Kevin's message.

"Damn it, I've really messed up!"

Ling Yuan: "Curious, why aren't you saying anything? Are you dumbfounded? Hahaha."

Herrscher of Reason: "Ah, um, oh right, Epitaph of Salvation, Kevin, I'm going to take the trial now, bye-bye."

After saying that, the profile picture went dark.

Cook: "..."

Raiden Mei shook her head.

I always feel that Kiana, instead of growing up as time goes by, is actually getting younger and younger.

I wonder what happened to them in the Elysian Realm.
