"A Chen! Mmm... someone wants to see... mmm... you. Do you want to meet him?"
Milim said indistinctly, her mouth full as she ate a small cake.
"See me? Who is it?"
Zhong Chen, who was looking down at a manga, didn't lift his head and asked casually.
"Guy! He's a Demon Lord too!"
Hearing Milim's words, Zhong Chen immediately looked up and asked, surprised:
"Guy? The Primordial Red?"
"Eh!!! A Chen, do you know him?"
Milim looked at Zhong Chen in surprise, hearing him call out Guy's identity.
"I don't know him personally, but I know *of* him. Why does he suddenly want to see me?"
Zhong Chen was still very confused as to why Guy suddenly wanted to see him.
He had never interacted with Guy.
He also had no intention of destroying the world, so logically, Guy shouldn't have noticed him.
It wasn't that Zhong Chen was afraid of Guy, but rather that he found it very strange.
"Hehe! Actually, I told him about you. He's very interested in your ability to travel between worlds, so he asked me to invite you over."
Milim explained loudly to Zhong Chen with a proud expression upon hearing his question.
"Huh? You told him? You betrayed me!"
Zhong Chen quickly understood the full story. As a World Mediator, Guy's purpose was to prevent humanity from going extinct due to infighting.
At the same time, he had to formulate different response strategies for external threats and changes.
Now that he heard Milim, that bigmouth, talk about a person like Zhong Chen, he would naturally have to conduct a risk assessment of Zhong Chen.
"Eh!!! I shouldn't have told Guy?"
"What do you think!"
"Forget it. Since he already knows, I'll go meet him. It's a good opportunity to discuss some things with him!"
Seeing that the deed was done, Zhong Chen stopped dwelling on it. Anyway, he wasn't afraid. At worst, they'd just have a fight.
Thinking of this, Zhong Chen immediately summoned his system panel.
"Open attribute panel!"

"Hmph hmph, before this Soul Transformation Ancestor, any enemy shall turn to dust!!! Hahahaha!"
"Host! You're getting overly arrogant now! In the myriad worlds, you're just a..."
"Stop! Stop! I know what you're going to say. Isn't it just about being crushed to death? You've said it more than once!"
"Then you still..."
"This is a two-dimensional style! You keep comparing me to the Primordial Era, of course I'd be crushed to death!"
"..."
"Milim, how does he plan to meet me? Am I going to him?"
"Hehe! Of course not! I'll come to you!"
Just as Zhong Chen finished speaking, a magic circle suddenly appeared before him.
When the magic circle disappeared, what appeared before Zhong Chen was none other than the red-haired Primordial Red, Guy Crimson.
"Eye of Identification!"
Guy Crimson
Loyalty: 0
Affection: Unknown
Abilities: Lord of Arrogance, God of the Abyss... Overall Strength Rating: SS+ (SSS-)
"As expected of the strongest in the world right now. He actually has SS+ strength in his normal state, and can reach SSS- when going all out!"
"Good thing this sovereign opened it, otherwise, with just my Nascent Soul cultivation, I might not have been able to overwhelm him!"
"Hahaha! May I ask what Guy-dono is looking for me for?"
Although Zhong Chen's inner thoughts were extremely active, he asked with an unperturbed expression.
"Zhong Chen, I heard from Milim that you can freely travel between various worlds? I wonder if that's true!"
Guy sat on the sofa like an old acquaintance, a smile on his face as he asked.
"Didn't Milim already tell you?"
Zhong Chen asked, looking puzzled at Guy's words.
"Hehe! I think you know Milim's personality. I usually only believe half of what she says!"
Hearing Guy say this, Milim instantly bristled.
"Guy, you don't believe me? And here I was, telling you about something as fun as going to other worlds! I'm not playing with you anymore!"
Watching Milim throw a childish tantrum, Guy and Zhong Chen both shook their heads helplessly.
"Zhong Chen, you understand now, right!"
"I understand!"
Hearing their words, Milim became even more boisterous, rolling around on the carpet.
However, the two of them unconsciously chose to ignore her.
"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. The matter of traveling between worlds is true! Is there a problem?"
Zhong Chen paused, his expression serious as he asked.
"I only have one question."
"Please speak!"
"What do you think of this world?"
Hearing this question, Zhong Chen was momentarily stunned. He didn't expect Guy to ask such a question.
After careful consideration, Zhong Chen replied:
"This world is beautiful, and I love it. If anyone tries to destroy it, I think I will personally eliminate them!"
"Including me, then?"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Guy spoke with a serious expression.
"That's right, including you. But I don't think you would want to destroy the world, would you? World Mediator!"
Hearing Zhong Chen reveal his identity, Guy showed no surprise.
For people at their level, these were not really secrets.
However, what Guy didn't know was that Zhong Chen's knowledge of his identity had nothing to do with his strength; it was purely due to his memories from his previous life.
"Is that so? Then I can rest assured!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Guy involuntarily let out a sigh of relief.
Because he could feel that if he really fought Zhong Chen, he might not even last three moves.
He didn't know what kind of monster this Guy was; he suspected that even a resurrected Star King Dragon might not be able to defeat him.
"You came to me just to ask that question?"
Zhong Chen didn't believe that Guy sought him out just to ask him one question.
"Hahaha! My main purpose in coming was to confirm whether you would pose a threat to this world!"
"Now it seems I was overthinking it. So, we can discuss the next matter!"
Guy spoke to Zhong Chen with a hearty laugh.
"I knew it! Speak!"
Hearing Guy's words, Zhong Chen immediately showed an 'I knew it' expression.
"Actually, it's nothing much. I was just wondering if you're interested in the title of World Mediator?"
"What!!! World Mediator?"
Zhong Chen looked at Guy in surprise. World Mediator, in other words, was the World Administrator.
From Guy's words, it seemed like he wanted to pass this title on to him, which Zhong Chen couldn't possibly accept.
"You want me to work! Not interested, not interested at all!!!"
"Whoever wants to do this annoying job can go do it. World Mediator? Not even a dog would do that!"
"..."
