Faced with Shin at this moment, they were at a complete loss.
The Sovereign God-King spoke slowly, "Then from now on, my daughter is in your care."
Then, in a flash, he was gone. Shin was speechless.
’He sure ran off in a hurry.’
The space around them began to ripple and loosen. Shin retracted his jutsu.
All of this had happened while he was casting the Outer Path—Samsara of Heavenly Life. Now, he had to resurrect Lucy’s butler as quickly as possible.
That was the only way to keep this game going.
He prepared to cast the necessary jutsu. To be honest, it was a technique Shin would rather not use. But he had made a promise, and a promise had to be kept.
Otherwise, it would be a real waste.
He glanced at the slowly thawing fabric of time and space, a strange feeling stirring in his chest.
This was his power, the very definition of strength. Even a god had to bend to his will.
But was this really for the best? Could this lead to unforeseen problems? Shin had already thought about it at length.
Just then, the temporal freeze he had cast began to dissipate.
Lucy suddenly noticed someone new standing beside Shin—a woman of such breathtaking beauty it was hard to look at her directly.
She asked in confusion, "Big Brother, is this a magic trick? How did a beautiful celestial woman just appear out of nowhere?"
"I’m starting to think you’re not resurrecting my butler—you’re just collecting beautiful women, aren’t you? I can’t believe you!"
But Shin paid her no mind. What does a little girl know?
He then asked, "You’ve got a lot of nerve. A woman appears out of thin air, and you don’t even ask how?"
Lucy tilted her head and replied slowly, "Why would I need to ask? You obviously did it."
"You can bring people back from the dead; making a woman appear is nothing. Why should I be surprised?"
"But I am curious... why use a beautiful woman to resurrect my butler? I mean, he’s handsome, but... are you planning on siphoning her life force or something?"
"But you really are incredible. I never thought you could be this powerful."
Shin looked at Lucy and said slowly, "I think your priorities are a little skewed. Aren’t you missing something more important here?"
"I seem to recall you claiming you had a crush on me. Well, this woman is my slave. So..."
"To be my slave, you have to be this beautiful. Understand?"
Shin was speechless with himself. Why did he say something so shameless? Because this was a god’s daughter—there wasn’t a more beautiful woman in the world.
But then, Shin thought of something. He looked at Louise and said, "I forgot something. Return for now."
"It’s not that I don’t want you. Just go back for now. I’ll summon you when I need you."
Since Louise was Shin’s slave, she said nothing and simply vanished.
Lucy cried out in amazement.
"Wow, that sister is amazing! She can teleport without even setting up a magic circle! The people you know are incredible."
"Alright then, that settles it. You’re my boyfriend now. You have to make me proud at the noble gathering!"
"Wait, I’m a wanted person now. This sucks."
Shin ignored Lucy. He had already considered it—he couldn’t do that.
Traveling with a god’s daughter would only bring trouble. She was just too beautiful. Who knew what kind of powerful people would come looking for trouble?
Although he was currently invincible in this world, that power was only a temporary recovery.
He had already relinquished that level of strength. Now, he could still barely use his Rinnegan and Sharingan, as well as Hollowfication and Bankai.
He was stronger than when he had killed Jela, but it still wasn’t enough. Shin knew just how powerful the people of this world were.
He then looked at Lucy and said slowly, "Now I will resurrect your butler. The process might be slow, so just wait patiently."
Lucy sat on the bed, swinging her little legs. "I know. This room is ours for the whole day, so do whatever you want."
"I get it. Take your time with the resurrection."
The moment Lucy finished speaking, her butler was resurrected.
It startled Lucy so much she could only stammer, "How... how was it so fast? Didn’t you say it would take a long time?"
"I didn’t see you do anything."
"Butler!"
At that moment, the butler was still in a daze. Seeing that it was his young lady, he immediately stood up, grabbed Lucy’s hand, and tried to run.
"Milady, we must flee! Jela—"
Then he realized something was wrong. This was a room. He looked at Shin and asked warily.
"Who are you? Stay away from my lady."
Lucy kicked him and said slowly, "You old fool. Honestly. You didn’t even ask what’s going on, and you’re already spouting nonsense."
"He’s our savior. Jela has been killed by him."
"And you were saved by him too. Butler, do you know? You were really dead just now, but because of him, you’re alive again."
The butler looked at Shin in disbelief. "Is this true? You can bring the dead back to life? Are you a god?"
He was about to kneel but was pulled up by Lucy.
"What are you doing? Can’t you ask before you act? Really."
"He’s not a god. He’s my fiancé, hehe."
The butler was stunned. He had never heard of his lady having a fiancé. But since the man had saved him and his lady, and killed Jela, his strength was beyond question.
Although he was reluctant, his lady was indeed getting older.
He said politely, "On behalf of Lucy’s father, I thank you for saving us both, master and servant."
"Although I don’t know your relationship with my lady, I can see you two are very close."
