Chapter 2815: Love Sage

Zu An wiped off his cold sweat. The universal deities sure are capricious. He quickly put a halt to those thoughts lest those entities overhear them.

He flipped open the Song of Righteousness.

“In Heaven and Earth there exists righteous energy, pervasive in all forms and things. Below, it manifests as rivers and mountains; above, as the sun and stars. Within mankind, it is called the noble spirit, vast and mighty, filling the universe. When the imperial path is pure and peaceful, it harmonizes all in the imperial court...”

Zu An heard a voice echoing in his ears, bringing him enlightenment. Righteous energy began to sprout within him.

New secret manual detected: Song of Righteousness. Do you want to absorb it?

Zu An was overjoyed to hear the long-awaited voice. According to prior experience, the Keyboard System absorbing the manual wouldn’t cause the latter to lose its original function, so he chose to absorb it.

The Song of Righteousness transformed into a stream of light and embedded itself onto the Keyboard’s F9 key.

New secret manual collection. New function unlocked: Title System.

The system will select the most suitable title for you based on your performance in major events.

In this dungeon, you have staked everything to protect your female friends, going to the extent of relinquishing the indescribably invaluable authority of Death to rescue them. The extent you’re willing to go to score a girl is no different from a Love Sage.

Love Sage: You can more easily earn a woman’s goodwill. Damage inflicted on women is reduced by 50%. Damage received from women is reduced by 70%.

Zu An was initially overjoyed to have unlocked a new keyboard skill, only to be flabbergasted by the title he obtained. What kind of title is that?! More easily earn a woman’s goodwill? How is that even measured?

At least there are numbers on the damage reduction, but that only means I’ll deal half as much damage to women in the future. As for being hurt by women...

Zu An suddenly thought about the Heiress’ Ball of Delight, which made him immune to damage from women richer than him. This 70% damage reduction appeared humble in comparison, but if used well, it could prove to be an invaluable asset.

Will the damage reduction apply to the bedroom as well, though? That would be a gigantic nerf for me!

“Big brother Zu? Big brother Zu?” Isabella called out.

Zu An snapped out of his daze and noticed the three women staring at him with weird eyes.

“Big brother Zu, you were standing in a daze earlier, smiling to yourself. You mumbled something about a nerf. What do you mean by that?” Isabella’s clear eyes were brimming with overflowing curiosity.

Faced with such clear eyes, Zu An’s face reddened. “It’s nothing...”

Firework clicked her tongue. “Isn’t it just being summoned by a universal deity? There’s nothing to hide here.”

The flow of time inside a universal deity’s domain was different from that of the real world. During Zu An’s conversations with the Deity of Chaos and Enigma and the Deity of Memory, an instant had only passed in the real world.

Zu An smiled. “I was indeed summoned by a universal deity...”

“You’re amazing, big brother Zu. You were summoned by a universal deity multiple times within such a short span!” Isabella’s voice was filled with admiration. The people of the Myriad Worlds viewed it as an honor to be summoned by a universal deity. It symbolized greater strength and potential.

“You have a portion of a universal deity’s authority inside you now. That lad must be out of his mind to share something like that,” Firework grumbled, though her twinkling eyes reflected her excitement.

“I don’t know how I can repay you, big brother Zu...”

“Stop. Are you going to betroth yourself to him next?” Firework interjected.

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Isabella stomped her feet. She looked adorable.

Zu An smiled. “We've braved life and death situations together now. Saying such words only makes us look distant.”

Isabella nodded. She bit her lip, not knowing what to say.

“Big brother Zu, why don’t you follow me back to the Universal Conglomerate? I remember you were looking for something. We have branches all over the Myriad Worlds. I’m sure we can help you find what you’re searching for.” Isabella looked at Zu An with expectant eyes before adding, “Big sister Firework and big sister Tingxue, you should come along as well. I’ll make sure to host you all well.”

Firework sneered, “Tsk, your invitation is obviously only directed at that fellow. We’re just add-ons. I’m not interested.”

Isabella felt indignant. “Big sister Firework, I have no such intention.”

Tingxue replied, “I’ll pass. There’s something I need to investigate.”

Zu An was surprised. It was no surprise for a Nebula envoy like Tingxue to be uninterested in the Universal Conglomerate, but to think she would be so concerned about a certain matter.

Just then, Firework suddenly spoke up. “It’s getting late. Why don’t you rest in my territory first? Dreamland’s accommodations are quite well-known across the Myriad Worlds.”

The others looked at Firework with weird eyes, knowing that Dreamland was a dead city, with practically its entire populace being her clones.

Firework harrumphed. “Relax. I’m in a good mood after finally being freed. I no longer need their souls. I’ll return them.”

“Didn’t you say they were dead?” Zu An was surprised.

“You believed that? It was merely part of my background setting as Dreamland’s big miss,” Firework replied with a gleeful grin. “I merely extracted their souls and infused mine into their bodies. That’s much easier than creating them from scratch.”

Zu An breathed a sigh of relief. Despite his intimate relationship with Firework, he'd still been jarred by her lack of hesitation to massacre entire worlds. Her willingness to spare Dreamland’s people is a good start. I need to advise her more.

“Big sister Firework, can you free Uncle Alfred?” Isabella looked at Firework with teary eyes.

“Don’t worry, he’s alive. I have no interest in such old souls.”

“You’re the best, big sister Firework!” Isabella was glad that Zu An had dealt with Firework, or else she had no idea how she could deal with such a terrifying enemy.

Firework casually waved her hand and pulled out countless cocoons from the darkness using silk threads. These cocoons contained the guests who had been on board the frigate.

The guests remained on edge even after they were freed.

“Where’s that demon spider?”

“Did big miss Isabella save us?”

“We have to leave this place right away. We’ll be dead meat if that demon spider finds us.”

...

Those people looked as if they were scared out of their wits.

Isabella noticed Firework’s twitching eyelids and quickly spoke up. “It’s big sister Firework, big brother Zu, and big sister Tingxue who saved us all. You have nothing to worry about anymore. That demon... Cough cough, I mean, we’re out of danger now.”

Isabella had noticed that Firework had conjured Yani and took it as a sign that she wasn't planning to reveal her true identity to the guests, so she played along with that.

The guests thanked Firework, but they still left in a hurry as they couldn’t shake off their fear.

The frigate they'd traveled on had been destroyed, so Isabella pulled out a tiny ship model from her bag and tossed it into the water. It swiftly expanded into a gigantic ship.

Everyone boarded the ship and embarked on their journey back to Dreamland.

While the guests remained fearful for their lives, Zu An began conversing with a beautiful woman wearing a red dress. It was Mi Li, who had been absent for a long time.

“You've been gone for so long that I thought you were dead.”

“It’s a good thing you didn’t ask them for the materials to reforge my body, or else I might have really died.”
