Inside Yulan Magic Academy.

"Did you hear? Sophie and Jessica actually threw themselves into a man's arms."

"Really? Are you kidding? Don't they usually never give men the time of day?"

"It's true, of course. A buddy of mine saw it with his own eyes."

"Ah, my twin goddesses! Who is that man? I want to challenge him to a duel!"

The appearance of Olivier caused a massive stir within Yulan Magic Academy. Many people had witnessed the academy's two goddesses throwing themselves into a man's embrace, wearing expressions of pure happiness.

When the Sophie sisters first arrived at Yulan Magic Academy, they did nothing but cultivate, attend classes, and visit the library. Even when they did interact with others, it was only with the academy's teachers; they were generally quite low-key.

Yet, even so.

The peerless beauty of the two sisters attracted many suitors from noble families.

They would block the way at the library or the dormitory entrance, hoping to win the sisters' hearts.

Countless noble youths pursued them to no avail.

Some began to harbor malicious intentions. These nobles, whose families had been passed down through generations in the Yulan Empire, held immense power in the Imperial Capital. To them, obtaining women through unscrupulous means was a perfectly normal affair.

Furthermore, given the sisters' strength as Level 4 mages, they were easily controlled. The first to lose patience and make a move was a direct descendant of a Duke Mansion named Max. This Duke family was extremely powerful and currently had a living Saint-level ancestor.

"Bring Sophie and Jessica to me, silently and without a trace," Max commanded.

He dispatched a Level 9 warrior, intending to quietly abduct the two sisters from Yulan Magic Academy.

Dealing with Level 4 mages shouldn't have required a Level 9 warrior, but he was sent specifically to ensure the job was done without anyone noticing, preventing anyone in the academy from discovering or stopping them. Max believed this was absolutely foolproof.

But was it really?

The unlucky Level 9 warrior successfully infiltrated Yulan Magic Academy and hid on the path the Sophie sisters took every night, watching as they drew closer.

"Whoosh!"

He struck decisively, and just as he was about to succeed.

Then!

"ROAR!" A lion's roar!

The Sophie sisters' pet cat suddenly radiated a terrifying aura, instantly grew in size, and slapped him into a pancake with one paw.

That night, Sophie and Jessica were safe and sound, but the people of the Imperial Capital were thoroughly terrified. That roar and the terrifying aura made the citizens think a magical beast was attacking the capital.

When Olivier left, Simba felt that following him was boring, so he stayed in the Yulan Imperial Capital with Nana and Sally.

Olivier thought about it and agreed.

He was aiming to break through to the God-level this time, so he wouldn't need the beast, and let it be.

"Simba, Sophie and Jessica are still weak. While I'm away, have Nana or Sally protect them at all times. If anything happens, I'm holding you responsible!"

Olivier had instructed before leaving.

Therefore, either Nana or Sally was always by their side, protecting Sophie and Jessica.

At that time, it was Nana who was protecting the Sophie sisters.

"If anyone harbors ill intentions toward Sophie and Jessica, kill them without mercy," Olivier had also ordered.

Thus, the Saint-level Snow Lion Nana slapped the intruder to death.

The intruder was beaten into a pulp of flesh and blood, unrecognizable.

Very few clues were left behind, but after an investigation, although there wasn't enough evidence, it was basically certain that the man belonged to Max.

Yulan Academy paid great attention to this incident, not only because of the presence of a Saint-level Snow Lion but also due to the pressure from the High Priest's two Saint-level disciples.

"The High Priest has spoken: no one is to harm them." To ensure the safety of the Sophie sisters within the academy, the two Saint-level magi stepped forward to issue a warning.

Because there was no evidence, the kidnapping incident was not pursued further.

From then on, no one dared to target them in the shadows. The nobles of the Yulan Imperial Capital guessed that their identities must be extremely noble; some even speculated that they were the High Priest's children.

Because!

With such low strength, they had a Saint-level magical beast protecting them and Saint-level magi as their teachers. If one could win over either of the two sisters, it would be a massive blessing, a path to soaring success.

Therefore, the noble princes of the Yulan Empire, the young masters of Duke Mansions, and the descendants of Saint-level powerhouses flocked to the academy, trying every possible way to get close to Sophie and Jessica.

They wanted to win the beauties' favor and gain both power and status.

However, the Sophie sisters never paid them any mind.

"Our sisters already have someone we love," the sisters would always gently refuse.

But!

Even though the two sisters were already taken, it did nothing to dampen their enthusiasm.

Now, the appearance of a man who could make the two sisters throw themselves into his arms naturally caused a massive uproar.

Even.

Soon, this matter spread throughout the Imperial Capital, but the protagonist of the event was already eating delicacies in Sophie's dormitory.

In Sophie's dormitory, Olivier met Simba, as well as Nana and Sally; two Snow Lions and one Snow Leopard. Ever since that incident, no one in the academy dared to act against Sophie and the others. Therefore, they generally did not follow them around, but stayed in the dormitory instead.

"Come, let me get a good look at you all. I've missed you so much."

They chatted about the bitterness of longing and the joy of reunion.

"We missed you too. By the way, Master, have you become a god?" Sophie asked.

Olivier nodded, admitting that he had become a god.

It was called a dormitory, but it was actually a villa, specially gifted by the school after the identities of Sophie and the others were exposed.

"Ah, I, Simba, am truly the most wise and valiant. I knew long ago that Master would definitely become a god, hahaha!"

Simba said shamelessly.

Olivier becoming a god naturally made him very happy; if he had submitted out of helplessness before, he was now proud to have a god as his master.

"Congratulations, My Lord."

Sophie, Jessica, Nana, and Sally took a long time to recover from the news before offering their congratulations.

This was a legend they could see and touch.

"Haha, don't be envious; everyone will become a god in the future."

Olivier also said happily.

"It's been so long since I've eaten the food you make. I've missed it so much."

The three humans and three beasts chatted while eating. Olivier mainly focused on cultivation, so he didn't have much to talk about; most of the conversation came from the Sophie sisters, who talked about studying magic, academy life, and inevitably, the harassment from many noble youths.

Suddenly!

"Sophie, Jessica, I heard your man is here!"

Before the person was seen, her voice was heard first as a girl shouted from outside.

"My Lord, it's Wendy."

Wendy was a princess of the Yulan Empire and one of their only two friends; they had just spoken to her about Olivier.

This Princess Wendy was very straightforward and enthusiastic, and her speech was very direct. The Sophie sisters had told her about Olivier.

A youthful and beautiful woman pushed the door open and entered, dressed in gorgeous attire, her beauty no less than that of the Sophie sisters.

As soon as she entered, she stared at Olivier, observing him carefully, to the point that Olivier felt a little embarrassed.

"Princess Wendy, hello. My name is Olivier, and I am indeed Sophie and Jessica's man."

Olivier laughed.

"Hmm, you do have a masculine charm. No wonder you were able to seduce Sophie and Jessica."

Wendy felt she had seen through Olivier and nodded.

I am a dignified god-level expert; do I really need to seduce anyone? Olivier thought. What an interesting princess.

It turned out that Princess Wendy had been bored in the imperial palace, and upon receiving news about her good friends, she had rushed over immediately to see this legendary figure.

Wendy pulled the Sophie sisters aside to whisper some private words, glancing at Olivier from time to time.

Olivier, meanwhile, ate his food, occasionally interjecting a sentence.

The three women chatted very happily.

Olivier, on the other hand, was left to the side.
