In Merlot Heavenly Court, within the royal palace, the vast hall was empty save for Kaisha, who sat alone on the throne.

At this moment, the royal palace was silent; Kaisha had even stopped breathing.

After a long while, faint breathing could be heard in the royal palace, along with Kaisha gently shaking her head, the soft sound of her hair brushing against her robes.

"This is truly..."

"Unexpected, isn't it?"

Before Kaisha could finish her exclamation, Hexi's voice emerged from the Dark Plane communication channel, sounding as complex as Kaisha's.

"So, Kaisha... what do we do now?"

"..."

Kaisha didn't reply, merely falling silent in thought.

"The plan was quite good initially: send Yan away, then send Little Zhixin over, and have Little Zhixin interact with the little guy, slowly falling in love with him, and having him fall in love with Little Zhixin. But now it seems..."

"Kaisha, the Angel's charm doesn't seem to have affected him... not even a double dose!"

Hexi's voice echoed incessantly through the Dark Plane communication channel, making Kaisha feel a little... annoyed!

"Hexi, you're so annoying!"

Kaisha grumbled, and then...

"Old woman, you dislike me, you dislike me! You don't love me anymore, right? Fine, then that's that..."

Hexi "tearfully" ended the call.

Kaisha froze, then tried to send a call link to Hexi again, only to find... Hexi's communication channel was blocked...

Kaisha blinked. She knew Hexi wasn't actually angry because she called her annoying; there had to be another reason for this.

So... Kaisha narrowed her eyes and chuckled softly.

"Heh, perhaps a honey trap using your own disciple won't work. Are you afraid I'll make you step in personally?"

Kaisha shook her head, ignoring Hexi, and continued her contemplation. Su Luo's reaction had truly caught her off guard.

Angels, as the most perfect Shenhe Body beings in the Known Universe, possessed unparalleled charm!

Before this, Kaisha had never encountered anyone who could resist an Angel's charm, which was why the Gene Matching system had always run smoothly. After all, those male gods couldn't refuse perfect Angels!

Thus, Su Luo's performance today was truly...

"The two of you, come down as well! There's no need to mention what just happened. Just state your purpose!"

Su Luo's tone was calm yet distant, leaving Angel Yan and Angel Zhixin unsure of where they had gone wrong.

However, with things as they were, it was best to descend first!

At the very least, they could make contact! With this thought, Angel Yan and Angel Zhixin exchanged glances and nodded. The two Angels flew towards Su Luo, landing not far from him.

Akashi, held in Su Luo's arms, stared at them menacingly. Coupled with Su Luo's seemingly scrutinizing gaze, they felt a little uncomfortable.

Su Luo looked at the two Angels who had landed before him. They looked somewhat familiar. He confirmed it; this was likely a place in the world he had seen in an anime before he stumbled upon his good fortune.

Standing before him were Angel Yan and Angel Zhixin. Yes, they were indeed beautiful, living up to the moniker of Angels being the most perfect beings in the Known Universe.

But... they were only the most perfect in the Known Universe!

Compared to everyone in the port, they were lacking by a tiny bit! Well, they were lacking much more in terms of physique!

After landing, the two Angels remained silent for a while. Finally, Angel Zhixin mustered the courage and spoke to Su Luo.

"Male God..."

The moment she uttered "Male God," Su Luo raised his hand to stop her!

"Don't, don't call me Male God! I'm not some Male God! I'm just the Commander of the port. My name is Su Luo..."

Su Luo paused when mentioning his name.

"You called out my name before. It seems you have some technology or means to directly read our information..."

As Su Luo spoke, Zhixin quickly explained.

"Male... Sorry, that's our Eye of Insight. It can read a target's Dark Plane information... You've just arrived in this world, and as outsiders, we naturally have to investigate you accordingly! Please understand..."

Zhixin wanted to continue calling him Male God, but Su Luo's gaze forced her to change her address.

"Since you've already obtained our information through these means, then Akashi and I won't introduce ourselves further! Just call me Su Luo!"

Seeing Akashi in Su Luo's arms grow more serious and hostile towards them after their Dark Plane information was mentioned, Angel Yan felt she should step in to explain.

"Male God..."

Seeing Su Luo staring at her, Angel Yan opened her mouth and changed her address.

"Sorry, Su Luo, regarding your Dark Plane information, since you've just arrived in this universe, your Dark Plane information was completely unhidden, so..."

"You mean our Dark Plane information is equivalent to being naked?"

Su Luo frowned and waved his hand at Angel Yan.

"Mhm... close enough. That's how it was at first, but only for Su Luo. That lady is a bit special; most of her data can't be accessed."

Angel Yan glanced at Akashi, curiosity in her eyes, but Akashi ignored her.

"But you don't have to worry. I've masked your information. Now, if anyone tries to read your data, they'll only get false information. Your real data is hidden by the Sacred Knowledge Repository, so you can rest assured!"

Akashi paid no mind to Angel Yan, and Angel Yan didn't push it. She turned to Su Luo to explain.

Su Luo nodded. It didn't matter if his data was seen; he wasn't losing anything. As long as his ship girls' data wasn't "seen," he didn't want anyone taking advantage of them.

Akashi snuggled into Su Luo's embrace, him stroking her head and cat ears. Her small face flushed, and a soft, cat-like purr emanated from her lips.

Knowing that her Commander wouldn't be seduced by these two outsiders, Akashi was no longer as angry, though she still felt resistant towards them.

Were they... love rivals?

Akashi shook her head internally at the thought.

No, no, no, they aren't love rivals. Love rivals are people who make the Commander's heart flutter. These two... the Commander clearly isn't interested.

So, they are... like stray cats in heat, peering through someone's window, eyeing the exquisitely groomed male housecat inside the warm room!

They should be spayed!!!

Akashi vented her frustrations internally towards Angel Yan and Angel Zhixin, but her expression remained unchanged.

Knowing that her Commander was using the conversation to gather information about this world, Akashi didn't cause any more trouble.

In fact, her anger had mostly subsided thanks to Su Luo's embrace, and she began to pay attention to what they were saying.

"Dark Plane information, Eye of Insight?"

Akashi poked her head out from Su Luo's embrace.

"We call the world we can directly perceive the Main Plane. The Dark Plane, on the other hand, requires special means to observe. Information about individuals and civilizations is stored in the Dark Plane. Without a dedicated firewall, this information can be seen by anyone capable of observing the Dark Plane. The Eye of Insight is the method the Angel Civilization possesses to observe the Dark Plane!"

Angel Zhixin looked at Akashi's question and answered her truthfully.

"Then... the Sacred Knowledge Repository you mentioned?"

"It's the Angel Civilization's celestial-class supercomputer."

Akashi's interest was piqued, and she began chatting with Angel Zhixin. Su Luo didn't stop her, letting Akashi in his arms continue to question the other party without interruption.

After a long while, Akashi had a clear understanding of their current situation and the basic power system of this universe.

"So, the so-called King-level combat power is backed by an entire massive fleet of celestial-class supercomputers for computational support?"

Akashi looked at Angel Zhixin and asked.

Angel Zhixin nodded, not denying it.

Akashi pondered.

"I feel like your combat methods are somewhat similar to the existence of Sirens, but also different! Sirens are AI, but you aren't..."

"Sirens?"

Akashi looked at Angel Yan, who had suddenly interjected, and shook her head, not saying more.

Angel Yan made a mental note of the word. Seeing that Akashi didn't intend to elaborate and Su Luo wasn't chiming in, she didn't press further.

After the conversation, the atmosphere had eased considerably. Although Su Luo's attitude towards them hadn't changed, they had, at least, managed to earn a measure of trust from Su Luo and Akashi, which was good news!

Akashi, who wanted to ask more, suddenly heard a rumbling sound.

Akashi turned and saw Azi quietly holding Manjuu, standing behind Su Luo. It seemed she had been standing there the whole time, not disturbing them or going for breakfast, just waiting for them...

She looked very well-behaved, and it was heart-wrenching.

"Azi, why didn't you go eat if you were hungry? Silly girl, you didn't have to wait for us!"

The sound was obvious, and Su Luo naturally noticed it. He released Akashi, turned, and reached out to ruffle Azi's head beside him. Then, he beckoned to Akashi, Angel Yan, and Angel Zhixin, signaling them to follow him inside.

Inside, Angel Yan blinked at the rather meager breakfast on the table. She waved her hand and produced some high-energy, delicious-looking food from her Dark Plane space, placing it on the table.

"As super-soldiers, you can't replenish your energy needs by eating only this, especially a super-soldier like Su Luo, who appears to have insufficient energy supply."

Angel Yan pushed the delicacies she had brought forward, gesturing to Su Luo.

"Su Luo, eat this!"

Su Luo glanced at Angel Yan and nodded, but he didn't move. He first fed Azi. He didn't suggest Azi eat the food Angel Yan brought out; Azi wasn't a super-soldier, just an ordinary person, and the food was too energy-rich for her.

Azi was also very well-behaved; she didn't fuss or demand food when Su Luo didn't feed her, remaining quiet.

Akashi had Manjuu make three stools yesterday.

Now there was one for him, one for Akashi, one for Angel Yan. Zhixin was still sitting on the bed where Akashi had slept last night!

As for Azi... Azi had nowhere to sit, so she was currently sitting in Su Luo's lap, obediently eating the fruit salad Akashi had made!

Seeing Su Luo's situation, Angel Yan said nothing more. She simply applied holy language code for heat preservation to the dishes she had brought out.

Akashi, however, became interested again by Angel Yan's words.

"You mentioned energy just now... I've been thinking lately, the energy utilization efficiency here seems... exceptionally low!"

"I don't know about other aspects, but just running the Super Gene system requires a tremendous amount of energy..."

Angel Zhixin chimed in, discussing energy utilization efficiency with Akashi. After a long conversation, they eventually turned to Su Luo's energy supply.

"If you agree, our Angel Civilization can provide energy for Su Luo's Super Gene!"

Angel Zhixin's tone was sincere. Angel Yan nodded beside her; they could indeed supply energy for Su Luo, or rather, they were eager to establish more connections with the male god through this method.

But unfortunately... Su Luo did not agree, and after a moment of thought, Akashi also chose to refuse.

"I'm sorry, we aren't even in a cooperative relationship right now. There's no way we can rashly entrust such an important matter to you!"

Although she still had some reservations about them, Akashi politely refused, seemingly out of gratitude for Zhixin's earnest answers to her questions just now.

"So, do you have any other methods?"

After refusing, Akashi continued to press.

Su Luo's resolute rejection brought a hint of disappointment to Angel Yan's face, and Zhixin was also a little downcast. However, upon thinking of another method in response to Akashi's inquiry, Zhixin was no longer dejected. Instead, her entire face turned red...

"As for other methods, I do have one more..."
