For the first ti, having managed to foresee the hidden traps in the ga, Ren Suo couldn't help but heave a huge sigh of relief. It wasn't easy.
To be fair, Ren Suo had originally never associated the Supre Supre with himself. After all, he was the one who coined that na, and the Supre Supre was from the year 2049, back in the 1999 tiline. What did that have to do with him, Ren Suo?
But now, looking back, Ren Suo realized that all nas were codenas; no ga characters from 2049 revealed their real nas, which was why he was misled. However, even though the Mini-World Ga Console went to great lengths to conceal it, the ga's key feature, "Future Communication," still leaked a lot of information. This allowed Ren Suo to connect all the clues and completely see through the illusion!
If the ga had only featured Ren Suo himself, he might truly not have recognized himself. After all, who would have thought that thirty years later, I would beco so handso, so strong, so wise and brave, so full of social responsibility, so exceptional? Ren Suo couldn't help but marvel. I could have been even better. It turns out humans can't truly realize how imnse their Potential is.
However, this ti, not only did he appear in the ga, but also those he cherished. He might not recognize himself, but how could he possibly fail to recognize them? Mini-World Ga Console, you lost to love this ti!
Ren Suo continued to play the ga, trying to glean insights about his and his girlfriends' future from the dialogues.
The Mysterious Enchantress laughed. "So the question arises, if it wasn't a change of heart, why did he suddenly give us the cold shoulder?"
The Void Empress revealed an expression of realization. "Could it be because..."
The Mysterious Enchantress snapped her fingers, grinning as she looked at the Supre Supre. "There's only one answer! Supre Supre, tell , which woman have you fallen for again?"
Ren Suo also beca curious, anxiously awaiting the Supre Supre's response.
But the Supre Supre said, "I haven't. I'm past the age of seeking new love; I won't fall for others anymore!"
The Mysterious Enchantress shook her head. "Nonsense, you're just like those faithful n who prefer young girls around the age of twenty! Otherwise, how do you explain the situation with the Galactic Songstress?"
The Void Empress added, "When the Galactic Songstress once transford into her adult form, I had a feeling that her mind was already mature; it was just a survival strategy to act like a little girl. Also, at that ti she couldn't maintain her adult form for long, just like the Dinsional Empress, and I treated her as my own sister, placing absolute Trust in her. That's why I let her get close to you, and as a result..."
The Mysterious Enchantress huffed. "And the result was that you raised a sly fox. When she grew up, she joined the fray to share in our cake... and she even transford into the most shining Galactic Songstress in the starry sky, now almost rivaling us on equal footing."
Little girl. Sister. Fox.
In a flash, Ren Suo recalled the conversations between the Galactic Songstress and the Supre Supre, and he was utterly bewildered.
Ren Suo subconsciously turned his head to look at Little Jiu, who was playing with her phone on the bed beside him. Since she hadn't taken a bath yet, Little Jiu was still wearing the white stockings and little skirt she had on earlier that day, lying on Lin Xianyu and shaking her little legs, her rosy cheeks irresistibly cute and lovable. Otherwise, Lin Xianyu wouldn't have allowed her to lie on top of her.
As Ren Suo looked at her, Little Jiu seed to telepathically glance back, handing him the phone with a smile and boasting, "Big brother, I got a pentakill!"
Lin Xianyu said, "It's because I deliberately fed you kills that you were able to get a pentakill."
Ren Xingi said, "Hold back from being reckless; without my perfect ult, this round wouldn't have been so easy."
Ren Suo reached out and ruffled Little Jiu's hair, saying, "Little Jiu is so amazing, I'll be clinging to your coattails from now on."
Little Jiu confidently proclaid, "Next ranked ga, Little Jiu will carry big brother up the ranks!"
Ren Suo thought for a mont, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I won't play gas with you anymore."
Little Jiu was imdiately stunned. "Why?"
"Because big brother needs to accompany his girlfriends, so there's no ti to play with Little Jiu," Ren Suo said seriously. "This happiness is hard-earned, so I must hold on to it tightly. You are my sister, Little Jiu, you should sincerely wish well!"
Everyone looked at Ren Suo oddly. What's he trying to prove to a kid? they thought. Although what he said sounded nice, it still felt like he just didn't want to play gas with a primary school kid.
Little Jiu pouted, let out an "OH," then very unhappily flopped onto Lin Xianyu's stomach and continued playing her ga. Lin Xianyu cried out in pain and, dividing her attention, fiercely pinched Little Jiu's cheeks in punishnt.
While Little Jiu angrily played the ga, she calmly thought:
Sure enough, no matter how good Little Jiu is to big brother or how close she is to him, he will always only treat her like a sister and take care of her!
He will always give priority to those old won!
The priority of a girlfriend is indeed higher than that of a sister!
The identity of a sister truly has its limits... unless she can surpass being just a sister!
Luckily, Little Star has already pointed out a perfect career transition path for Little Jiu—as long as the conditions are right, the roles of sister and girlfriend are interchangeable!
Now, Little Jiu's biggest disadvantage is her age; she's nowhere near big brother's range of girlfriend material...
But no worries, once Little Jiu's Cultivation improves, she too will grow up fast like humans, and Little Jiu can also maintain the most beautiful image forever!
It's said that human n all like beautiful girls around the age of twenty, and the won big brother likes are basically that age; it's because Sister Xing reached that age that she transitioned from sister to girlfriend!
What Little Jiu needs to do now is to continue playing the role of a well-behaved girl, gaining the Trust of those old won. Once Little Jiu grows up, and big brother tires of them... that will be Little Jiu's era!
…
…
Naturally, Ren Suo had no clue about the plots and sches brewing in Little Jiu's mind.
The words I had said just now were purely out of the moral standards of an intellectual who has been through nine years of compulsory education; after all, I'm not like Zhao Huo, who started looking for a wife in kindergarten and had a thing for "lolis."
His feelings for Little Jiu were filled with affection and pampering, so he hoped Little Jiu would understand his intent, strive to improve every day, be a good Strange Creature, grow up to be soone useful to society, and pursue her own happiness.
I will also definitely lead by example with righteous vigor, guiding Little Jiu towards the proper path in life, making sure she doesn't go astray! Although I think so, whenever I rember the few occasions Little Jiu transford into the Nine-Tailed Fox, I feel my Determination isn't exactly steadfast. But now that Little Jiu has walked away angrily, she must dislike , so the future has surely changed!
Comforted by this thought, Ren Suo continued to browse the dialogue and saw the Void Empress ask, "What is your defense concerning the matter of the Galactic Songstress?"
The Supre Supre spread his hands and said, "That's a Destiny that cannot be changed. I really didn't want to, but... so things are beyond my control, so Destinies are inescapable."
Ren Suo was speechless. Why is my thirty-year future self so shaless? Or could it be that this is actually just part of the ga plot for effect? Right, it must be. The Mini-World Ga Console, to prevent from realizing that the Supre Supre is myself thirty years in the future, deliberately distorted my radiant image and elegant speech, all to keep in the dark. As expected of you, Mini-World Ga Console!
The Mysterious Enchantress said, "Okay, then what about the Blood Lotus Sect Master? The Blood Lotus Sect Master even ca to in tears, thinking it was who stole your ti again and monopolized you. This ti I won't take the bla for you."
The Void Empress said, "The Blood Lotus Sect Master carries the responsibility of educating and passing on her Inheritance. She's in charge of the academic affairs of tens of thousands of students, so she's incredibly busy with work and her career, with very little ti for leisure. Yet, you still brush her off like this, making her feel very upset.
"She's strict with others, even more so with herself, and only relaxes by acting coquettishly in front of you. Don't forget, I also regard the Blood Lotus Sect Master as a sister, and I won't allow you to mistreat her."
The Supre Supre said humbly, "I've already promised that I'll properly compensate them once I return until they're satisfied."
This kind of spineless Supre Supre must have been vilified by the Mini-World Ga Console, thought Ren Suo. When do I ever speak so weakly? However... strict with others, strict with herself? Blood Lotus Sect Master, educational Inheritance?
Ren Suo glanced at Gu Yueyan, who was casually chatting with Dong Chengling. Will Gu Yueyan one day beco the principal of the Superhuman Academy? he wondered.
The Mysterious Enchantress laughed and said, "Oh? Properly compensate? Do you also plan to compensate the Dinsional Empress? She hopes that you will have a brood of children with her."
"I'll do my best," the Supre Supre replied.
The Mysterious Enchantress shook her head. "Don't you dare. You used to et with her in dreams every night, and she hogged all the Dream Quota. If you give away any more of your real-world ti, we won't accept it."
The Void Empress said, "Even though I'm not qualified to say it, seeing as The Dark Side of the Moon is a Blessing she gave to all beings, I've never seen you on The Dark Side of the Moon... The Dinsional Empress is being too selfish."
Ren Suo blinked and looked down at the Black Cat in his arms. The Black Cat had its eyes squinted, its little mouth slightly open, its body trembling, emitting a deep, rumbling purr—when sleeping in Ren Suo's arms, she would always purr with Joy.
After Luna, the Moon Chanter, completely absorbed the Moon God's power, did she master The Dark Side of the Moon, allowing everyone to wander the dream world?
Then the Void Empress said, "The Lord of the Stars also complained to . She's usually busy with comrcial partnerships for developing planetary resources and has even less free ti than the Blood Lotus Sect Master. Yet, she barely sees you when she finally gets a chance to go ho."
The Mysterious Enchantress laughed. "Is it because she insists you call her Sister, so you're angry? But as I see it, you've liked being taken care of by pretty older sisters for decades, and that hasn't changed one bit... however, by brushing her off like this, she might feel like she's wasted her ti raising you~"
The Supre Supre shook his head. "No, I'm not angry about that."
Ren Suo looked puzzled. Recalling the Supre Supre's conversations with the Lord of the Stars, he turned to look at Ren Xingi.
At that mont, Ren Xingi put down her phone with relief but said unhappily, "Finally done! Why did this ga take so long, and we almost suffered a coback loss... It's past midnight. I'm going to take a shower."
" too!"
"Little Jiu too!"
Ren Xingi thought for a mont and said, "Let's shower together; the bathroom is big enough. Little Jiu, I'll help you wash your hair."
Lin Xianyu imdiately said, "I'll help Little Jiu apply body wash!"
Little Jiu decisively refused, "No, Xianyu! I want Little Star!"
"You have to call Sister Xing," Ren Xingi corrected solemnly, then pushed Little Jiu into the bathroom.
Watching the three of them head into the bathroom, Ren Suo scratched his head, finding it sowhat unbelievable.
It wouldn't surprise if my sister beca a super Rich Lady capable of influencing planetary developnt; after all, her net worth is already hundreds of tis mine at such a young age. But the idea that my sister would actually like to call her Sister, and then take care of and support for thirty years... that's just too... Too exhilarating! I wouldn't have to work for the next thirty years!
I never imagined I would have such a future, yet it seems like everyone else has a bright path ahead. To avoid ruining their prospects with the Butterfly Effect, I'll have to sacrifice myself, honestly follow Destiny's path, marry five wives as planned, live an easygoing and happy life for thirty years, and finally, nobly beco the Savior of the Milky Way Galaxy!
An ordinary life is the real deal. Ren Suo grudgingly accepted this plain future.
"Since you don't intentionally neglect us on a subjective level, what objective reasons do you actually have?" the Void Empress asked.
"And you deny having another woman... Could it be because you have a new man!?" the Mysterious Enchantress added.
The Supre Supre was silent for a long ti before he finally said softly, "It's unrelated to any creature."
The Void Empress made a guess, "Virtual Sovereign Ilina?"
The Mysterious Enchantress raised her eyebrows slightly. "The hobby of the Head of the Remnant Soldiers?"
"Actually, it's because Ancient Scrolls 6 ca out," the Supre Supre said. "It's the second installnt, a fully imrsive online ga version. I've been playing this ga for the past few months, so I haven't had ti for you. This ga is just too fun; I've already spent a hundred million on it."
Ren Suo was speechless. ...
Although Ren Suo wanted to say he wasn't that kind of person, his conscience told him... I would indeed do sothing like that.
Ancient Scrolls 6 had a PowerPoint promo last year, and it still took 30 years to release?! Ren Suo was impressed. Thinking about it this way, the Supre Supre's behavior is understandable. Waiting thirty years for a ga, it seems only human to binge-play it for a few months first.
Then Ren Suo saw that the Void Empress and the Mysterious Enchantress both paused for a mont. After a few seconds, they couldn't help but break into laughter, their bodies quaking with mirth.
The Mysterious Enchantress sighed. "That's so like you."
The Void Empress said with laughter, "I'll tell them your answer. As for the compensation you owe, make sure you compensate them properly."
The Mysterious Enchantress said, "Speaking of compensation, I need so too. Seventeen tis what they get will suffice."
The Void Empress said, "Sa here. Also, the Heavenly Maiden Sovereign helped you a lot; you'd better properly... compensate her."
Heavenly Maiden Sovereign?
Ren Suo scratched his head. All my girlfriends have appeared, even Little Jiu. So who is this Heavenly Maiden Sovereign? Is she a new friend who will appear later? he wondered.
"Class—lead—er,"
The bathroom door opened, and Lin Xianyu stuck out a pitiful cat-like face, speaking in a woeful manner, "Class leader, can you get my clothes for ? I forgot to take them."
Gu Yueyan said with irritation, "Seems like you forgot to take your brain too. Mr. Suo, what are you looking at?"
Ren Suo quickly averted his gaze and earnestly played his ga.
The Supre Supre said, "Ti is about right... What do you want to do now? Whatever you do will have a profound effect on the Destiny of 1999."
The Void Empress and the Mysterious Enchantress exchanged glances, and the Void Empress said, "We've been married for so long, let's keep it simple."
The Mysterious Enchantress said with a laugh, "We'd like to be more complicated, but he can't even move now."
So, both of them stepped forward and gave the Supre Supre a light kiss on the cheek.
The Golden Waterfall of the Future Communication Office materialized again, and the Supre Supre was about to return to 1999.
Just at that mont, the Void Empress, who was gradually fading away, suddenly said, "By the way, if possible, try to co back before the anniversary."
Ren Suo blinked in surprise. Then he saw the Supre Supre ask the sa question. What anniversary? It's one thing for not to know, but how do you not know either?!
However, neither the Void Empress nor the Mysterious Enchantress got angry. The Mysterious Enchantress said, "You've been in 1999 for too long and have already missed several anniversaries and birthday celebrations. It's normal to forget which anniversary it is. Speaking of which, by playing gas for months, you've neglected more than just us. When you get back, just wait for those five, who are like debt collectors, to co after you for their missing birthday presents..."
The Mysterious Enchantress's body gradually turned into purple light and dissipated, leaving behind her words, "The anniversary we're talking about refers to that day which, in all our mories, is the most important one. That is..."
