Chapter 490
Only by holding the hand of your beloved... can you quietly and gently tighten your grip.
All morning...
Neither of them spoke; they both silently gazed into the distance.
For Luo Mio and Claudia, all they needed to do was quietly enjoy the tranquility of the moment... and the warmth of each other's hands.
——
Noon.
Luo Mio and Claudia, who had spent the morning in the Middle-earth, returned home.
And I just got home.
As Luo Mio entered the foyer, she heard the Heavenly Voice Minato and a group of girls inside.
I don't know who started it...
Now, Luo Mio's home can be said to have become a secret base for Minato and a group of girls, whenever it's a weekend or when they don't have classes.
Minato, Sophia, and several other girls, as well as Kato Kirin, Yurith, Saya Sasamiya Saya, Amagiri Haruka, Sylvia...
The women's gatherings would always be held at Luo Mio's house.
And now Stella has joined the Stella...
This situation made Luo Mio sigh with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
Claudia, standing to the side, covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
Upon entering, Minato saw Claudia and enthusiastically pulled Claudia into the girls' gathering.
Then Luo Mio looked at Ikki and Amagiri Ayato, who were sitting at the dining table quietly drinking hot tea and chatting, and sat down next to them.
Luo Mio couldn't help but sigh.
"Really... They say three women make a drama, but with so many women in the house now, it's more than just a drama."
As the only two men in the room, Ikki and Amagiri Ayato wore bitter expressions.
Just then, Luo Mio's Space Window rang.
Upon opening it, I found it was a message from Sylvia.
Luo Mio was taken aback, then stood up and said.
"I'll be right back."
Watching Luo Mio's departing figure, Amagiri Ayato couldn't help but wonder.
"Does Luo Mio have something urgent to discuss?"
Ikki smiled gently and said.
"Well..."
Then, Ikki glanced at the girls who were chatting happily, picked up a piece of white paper and a pen, wrote a few lines on the paper, and handed it to Amagiri Ayato.
Taking what Ikki had written, Amagiri Ayato lowered her head to look at it, then slowly opened her eyes, looking at Ikki with a hint of surprise.
He picked up a pen and wrote a line of text.
'Really?'
Ikki nodded slightly.
After receiving Ikki's affirmation, Amagiri Ayato looked at Luo Mio with a delighted expression, and then glanced at Claudia.
On the other side...
Luo Mio arrived at her room and connected to the video call.
The person in the picture is Sylvia.
Upon seeing Sylvia, Luo Mio went straight to the point and asked her the question.
How are the preparations going?
Sylvia nodded, then smiled.
"What about over there?"
Luo Mio then said, "I just sent over the Omni-Crystal. It will probably take another month or two to complete the production."
"Wouldn't one or two months be too long? When do you plan to give it to Tia?"
Luo Mio remained silent for a while in response to Sylvia's question.
"I still have some time before I leave this time."
"In that case... let's do it on June 10th."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Sylvia on the screen was also taken aback.
"June 10th..."
"Isn't that Tia's birthday...?"
Luo Mio nodded, then looked tenderly at the scene displayed in a small window in the corner of the Space Window.
A very exquisite ring...
Interlude: The Oath!
Inside the "Finality" headquarters located on "Asterisk".
"How about it?"
Luo Mio stood in the laboratory base, looking at the petite figure in front of her wearing a white coat.
"Kukuku".
The petite figure let out a confident laugh, then turned to look at Luo Mio.
It turns out that the petite figure was none other than Destruction!
On his table sat a very exquisite Pure White Ring.
"Of course it's completely finished."
Destruction laughed loudly.
"Don't you even know who created this thing?"
Watching Destruction's childish, self-absorbed performance, Luo Mio turned to look at the Pure White Ring on the table.
At that moment, the laboratory door was also opened.
Bella approached Destruction, carrying a lunchbox that looked like a bento box.
Looking at the destruction, Bella said helplessly.
"Lord Mie, you haven't eaten for a week."
Upon seeing Bella, Destruction spoke with an extremely arrogant expression.
"Hmph, I am the God of Destruction destroys everything in the world, how could I possibly eat the food that mortals eat?"
"..."
Bella sighed helplessly upon hearing this, then said with a slightly indifferent expression.
"I have recorded everything Lord Mie said. I will tell Lord Fu Hua about it when we get back..."
Upon hearing Bella's words, Destruction froze.
Bella then added, "And you should know that this laboratory is monitored by cameras, and all the footage is transmitted back to the Hyperion."
After a long silence, Destruction finally showed a reluctant, childlike expression before accepting the bento box.
As if he had thought of something, Destruction looked at Bella cautiously and asked.
"In this food..."
Bella smiled brightly.
"Of course, there's the green pepper that you hate the most, Lord Mie."
Upon hearing that, Destruction's face immediately fell, and a mask of pain appeared on his face.
But at that moment, Luo Mio suddenly spoke up and asked Destruction a question.
"Little Extinction, could you make another ring?"
Bella and Destruction were both taken aback by Luo Mio's words.
Seeing Luo Mio's serious expression, Destruction also became unusually normal.
Destruction scratched his cheek and said to Luo Mio.
"That's possible, but brother..."
"Didn't you prepare only one ring for your sister-in-law Claudia this time?"
Luo Mio simply smiled gently at the destruction.
Bella, who was beside Destruction, seemed to realize something and looked at Luo Mio, asking with a hint of surprise.
"Master, could it be...?"
Luo Mio nodded, then looked at the design drawings of the Pure White Ring displayed in the laboratory.
"The engagement ring is not the one used at the wedding."
——
At the Star Palladium Academy, in a courtyard, Luo Mio found Yurith, and coincidentally, Amagiri Ayato was also right next to her.
"Oh, I see."
After listening to everything Luo Mio said, Yurith nodded.
Then a look of joy appeared on her face as she looked at Luo Mio and said, "I was just wondering what you wanted to see me about."
"I never expected things to turn out like this."
"Don't worry, I will definitely be there."
Luo Mio looked at Yurith.
"Then I'll leave it to you then."
——
After leaving the Star Academy, Luo Mio returned to the St. Freya Academy.
Upon returning to St. Freya, Luo Mio immediately went to the second training room and found Sophia, Yuzuki, Kuroa, and Nina training there.
Looking around and finding that Minato wasn't there, Luo Mio slowly walked out.
The four women were all taken aback when they saw Luo Mio.
Sophia asked.
"What happened, President?"
Under normal circumstances, Luo Mio rarely comes to the academy, and even when she does, she only appears in the Student Council office.
So when Luo Mio appeared in front of them, Sophia and the others all showed very surprised expressions.
Luo Mio asked, "Where's Minato?"
Yuzuki replied, "Today, a freshman wants to challenge her for a spot among the Top Twelve, so Minato should be preparing now. We're planning to go over there later too."
Luo Mio let out a soft breath.
"It's good that he's not here."
When Luo Mio said that, Yuzuki, Sophia and the others were all stunned.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the four puzzled women, Luo Mio slowly began to explain everything.
"!"
