"Zhong Chen!!!"
William looked at Zhong Chen, who was greeting him, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He hadn't expected someone who absolutely shouldn't appear to show up in this situation.
"Cough cough... You're not dead!"
Zhong Chen looked at William's heavily injured body, casually pulled out a bottle of healing medicine, and sprinkled it on him.
As a faint blue light emanated from William's body, all his injuries miraculously healed.
Even the hidden injuries from five hundred years ago disappeared.
"This... this is..."
Feeling his body full of strength, William tried to stand up and moved his body.
Feeling his body was in surprisingly good condition, William looked at the nonchalant Zhong Chen with a shocked expression.
"Haha, it's just a bottle of healing medicine, nothing to be surprised about."
"You really are mysterious."
After saying this, William slowly walked to Chtholly's side and held her in his arms.
He gently stroked her hair and, with a sad expression, spoke to Zhong Chen: "Zhong Chen, Chtholly is gone, but she left with a face full of happiness."
"I had just...嗚嗚嗚... I had promised to give her happiness... I...嗚哇啊啊啊啊!!!"
Seeing Zhong Chen, William seemed to have found someone to confide in, going from a calm narration at first to finally holding Chtholly and wailing in pain.
If it weren't for Zhong Chen's sudden appearance and Nephren lying unconscious nearby, William would have ended his own life.
"William, do you remember something I once told you?"
Zhong Chen looked at the crying William, a hint of playfulness flashing in his eyes, and asked softly.
"What did you say..."
Hearing Zhong Chen's question, William looked up at Zhong Chen with a bewildered expression.
Hearing William's words, Zhong Chen suddenly stood up, placed one hand on his hip, and pointed at William with the other, shouting loudly: "There will come a day when you'll beg me! How about it, do you want to beg me? I can help you revive Chtholly!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in William's dead eyes, and a look of hope emerged on his face.
"You... what did you say? Revive Chtholly, really? You're really not lying to me!"
Zhong Chen smiled slightly at William's words, nodded seriously, and simultaneously made a peace sign with both hands.
"That's right, didn't I say I was omnipotent..."
"Zhong Chen, please save her, please save Chtholly!"
As he spoke, William put Chtholly down and was about to kneel, but he was pulled up by a hand halfway through.
"You really can't take a joke! Chtholly is so cute, even if you didn't ask, there's no way I'd let anything happen to her."
With that, Zhong Chen waved his hand, and a ball of green light instantly entered Chtholly's body.
At this moment, the golden light protecting her memories within Chtholly's body also dissipated.
The green light continuously repaired Chtholly's body, sorting out the memories released by the golden light.
"Oh, I almost forgot!"
As if remembering something, Zhong Chen waved his hand again, and a red light orb floated out of Chtholly's body and slowly came into Zhong Chen's hand.
"This is?"
William looked at the golden light orb floating out of Chtholly's body, utterly bewildered.
"This? Her past life memories, or rather, the memories of the little girl she's about to become."
"What! You can actually extract memories!!!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, William was filled with shock. He had tried his best to overestimate Zhong Chen, but he still underestimated him.
Who exactly is Zhong Chen? This guy is definitely not human; no human could be this monstrous.
"Mmm mmm mmm... Where is this..."
Just then, Chtholly, who had been lying on the ground, miraculously had her hair turn blue again, and she slowly opened her eyes.
"Ch... Chtholly!!!"
William saw Chtholly open her eyes and excitedly hugged her.
"Wi... William?"
Chtholly looked at William, who was hugging her, with a bewildered expression. Hadn't she died? What was going on?
"Yo, welcome back, my cute Sleeping Beauty!"
Chtholly followed the sound and saw Zhong Chen smiling at her.
"Mr. Zhong Chen!!! You're alright?"
"Hehe, of course I'm alright, and not only am I alright, but all of you are alright too!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Chtholly refocused her gaze on William, who was holding her tightly, and asked softly: "William, it's so good that you're alright..."
"Chtholly...嗚嗚嗚... Wel... welcome back!"
Listening to William's crying, tears also began to well up in Chtholly's eyes.
A bright smile appeared on her face, and she reached out to gently pat William's back, saying with a tearful smile: "I'm back, William!"
"Clap clap clap!"
"Oh my, I just love happy endings; tragedies are the worst."
Zhong Chen clapped his hands, a smile on his face, and said.
"So, Mr. Zhong Chen, where have you been all this time, and why did you suddenly appear here?"
"Nephren, is it really appropriate to ask me that question right after you've recovered? Can't you see the young couple is still being all lovey-dovey?"
Zhong Chen asked Nephren, who had just sat up, her injuries completely healed, with a helpless expression.
"Rejected. It is indeed necessary for Mr. Zhong Chen to explain the situation now!"
Nephren first glanced at William and Chtholly, who were embracing, a slight smile playing on her lips, then continued to speak to Zhong Chen.
"Alright, alright, I'm really fed up with you. Fine, I'll just tell you everything. William, Chtholly, you two lovebirds listen too, stop being so mushy for a bit!"
"Oh my, Mr. Zhong Chen, what are you saying!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Chtholly shyly buried her head in William's embrace.
"Alright, Zhong Chen was just joking with you. Get up, it's a good time to hear what Zhong Chen wants to say."
"Oh..."
Chtholly, raising her head, saw Nephren, who was now fine, and nodded gently at her.
Nephren also nodded in response.
"First, I think I need to reintroduce myself."
"I knew it! I knew you wouldn't just be a simple human."
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, William had an 'I knew it' expression, while Zhong Chen pouted unhappily and said: "If you interrupt again, I'll bury you down there and starve you for three days and three nights!"
"Alright, alright, I won't interrupt anymore, you continue. Tsk... so petty..."
Zhong Chen rolled his eyes at William's muttering, ignored him, and continued to speak to the three: "My name is Zhong Chen, I didn't lie to you about that, and my race is indeed human."
"As for my identity... Heh heh heh!"
At this point, Zhong Chen suddenly looked up, extended his right hand, pointed to the sky, and shouted: "Look up, at the sky!!!"
Startled by Zhong Chen's sudden shout, the three followed his finger and looked at the sky, only to see numerous black dots suddenly appear.
As the black dots got closer, they visibly grew larger until they arrived above them, completely blocking the sun.
"This... this... what exactly is this!!!"
"This is too big!"
"Is this a battleship? Impossible!"
Looking at the three in shock, Zhong Chen put his hands on his hips and continued to loudly introduce himself: "I am one of the supreme leaders of the Monster Country Federation, the founder of the The Idle Organization, the founder and honorary director of Academy City, the first overlord of the Imperial Commercial Street, and the first loser of the marble shop."
"I am His Highness Zhong Chen, most respected by seven hundred thirty-seven million four hundred thousand Imperial citizens and hundreds of thousands of Imperial soldiers!"
"Now, quickly prostrate yourselves in worship!!! Hahahaha!!!"
