Rudy and the girls ate dinner in an awkward mood. They could shout or pass remarks to each other as Joe was sleeping in the next room.

Rebecca finished her plate as soon as possible and left for her night shift.

After finishing dinner, Lucy and Rudy washed the plates while Angelica and Lilim sat in the living room, discussing their next move.

"Who is that man?" Lilim asked Angelica in a low voice

"Oh, right. You don't know about that." Angelica moved her face close and whispered, "His name is Joe, and he is Lucy's father."

"I know that much from their earlier interaction. But… What is he doing here, and why is he sleeping in Rebecca's room?"

"Sis married him."

"..."

"He is her husband."

"Nice joke, Jessi. But you made one big mistake, and that is Rudy would never let the opposite sex come near any of his harem members and the girls he is interested in."

"It's not a joke."

"..."

The look in Angelica's eyes proved she wasn't joking.

"...seriously…? Why would Rudy let that happen?"

"Because Joe is harmless. Sis married him because she saw a family photo from this timeline in 1989. And she thought if she didn't marry Joe, she might change the future."

"Still, I can't believe Rudy is okay with this. Even if that man is harmless, I expected Rudy to remove him from existence."

"He would have if he tried to do anything funny. He is Lucy's father. And he did so many things for Rudy in his past life. Rudy is grateful and indebted to him."

"What are you girls talking about?" Rudy interjected as he walked into the living room with Lucy.

"Oh, nothing. I was just wondering how we are going to sleep now."

"I can sleep with dad. Lilim and Angelica can sleep in Rudy's room, and Rudy would have to make do with the couch."

"I think three people can easily sleep in the bed if they tried," Lilim remarked while gazing at Rudy with curious eyes. "Rudy doesn't need to sleep on the couch."

"I will sleep with Joe. You girls can sleep in my room."

Lilim seemed unhappy with Rudy's solution, but that was indeed the best solution.

"Feel free to watch the television if you want. I will go to sleep."

Rudy went to Rebecca's room and got on the bed.

'I can't remember the last time I slept on mom's bed.'

Rudy didn't want to act like a pervert, but as soon as he laid down and sniffed Rebecca's pillow, he got a boner.

'Oh, come on. There is no one to relieve me today.'

Since Rudy kept his eyes closed for more than three seconds, he fell asleep instantly.

The girls looked at each other's faces, wondering what they should do next. But Angelica had something else in her mind.

'I will watch television till late night until both Lilim and Lucy fall asleep. And then I will sneak out with Rudy to have some fun.'

Angelica's plan was perfect, and she was confident that it would work.

She turned on the television and switched to a boring movie so Lucy and Lilim could fall asleep. However, she was the only one who paid attention to the film and got bored. Hence, she was the first one to fall asleep.

Lucy had things to do the next day, so she went to Rudy's room and fell asleep. Lilim asked Lucy to take Angelica with her, but Angelica wasn't waking up.

"Leave her here. You can join me upstairs, and she can sleep on the couch."

"I will do that," Lilim nodded.

Eventually, Lilim also fell asleep on the couch.

A few hours later, Rudy opened his eyes before sunrise and looked up at the ceiling.

"..."

He sat up and fixed his clothes before leaving the room. He checked his phone and muttered, "She should be there."

Rudy passed through the living room and walked towards the front door. But he was called out by Lilim.

"Daddy…?"

Rudy turned to her and saw her rubbing her eyes.

"Hmm?"

"Are you going somewhere?"

"Yes, but I will be back before everyone wakes up."

"Okay…"

Lilim moved her hands forward as if she wanted a hug from Rudy.

Rudy hugged her and patted her head, but Lilim moved her face up and puckered her lips.

He kissed her on the lips and calmly said, "Go back to sleep. Let Angelica sleep on the couch."

"Hmm…"

Lilim walked up the stairs and went to Rudy's room to sleep. While he walked to the front door and checked the meter value.

"I don't need to recharge it."

After that, he teleported to the castle to see the progress.

"...!"

There were hundreds of thousands of underblades at the site, thousands of machines and devices working on renovating the island.

Most of the island was fully recovered, and the buildings were renovated to their original form— although Rudy wanted to hear the progress from Lu Bela's mouth.

He glanced around to search for Lu Bela but couldn't see her near him. So he got closer, and all the underblades stopped working and turned on their combat mode.

Seemingly, Rudy had entered their radar, and they detected Rudy as an intruder.

"..."

Rudy simply knitted his brows, and the Underblades fell to their knees. Kim approached Rudy and asked, "Why do you always come unannounced?"

"Where is the fun in announcing?"

"You can't seek fun in everything you do."

"I beg to differ. Anyway, where are your missus?"

"She is my master and my friend. And she is at the castle. We haven't seen her since last night."

"What is she doing there?"

"She recovered a statue and is working with the crew to move it. She wanted to show it to you, but you seemed to be missing yesterday."

"Yeah… things happened…"

Rudy flew to the castle and caught a glimpse of the back of the statue, and it seemed very tall and detailed, even from afar.

"Who in the hell's statue is that?"
