(A/N: Hey, yo! What's up, guys? Long time no see. I just tell you in advance that my update is very sporadic. If I have free time, I will just write one chapter or so to upload. If I don't, then it will quite a while until I update again. Just like today. I have only one week before my mid-term exam, so I just want to update one chapter before I refocus my mind on my study after that. I can tell you that approximately after another 20 or so chapters, I might put the upload chapter in locked mode or premium, I guess. We've got a long way to go. If you like my book, I hope you stick around. Although my story plot doesn't have any in-depth plots like the other, my mind works on a simple outline rather than a complicated plot. HAHA. Well, talk too much! Enjoy the chapter! Take care during this time.)

RECAP
The Nether Emperor who standing beside Nineteen smiled softly at the picture, he felt proud and excited. Then it was as if he realized something, his facial expression change slightly, he took Nineteen hands to hold and said something to him.
Nether Emperor: "I forget to tell you something."
(A/N: I'm gonna do the recap for every chapter from now on because I know that It takes quite a while for me to upload the next chapter, so you might have forgotten the previous chapter's ending and end up confused, or need to go back to the previous chapter to look at where it was left off. Therefore, a short extract from the previous chapter will appear in the recap scene before moving on to the new chapter.)
------------------------------------
(A slightly explicit scene [R-18] at the end)
Before Nineteen had a chance to ask the Nether Emperor what was it about, the Nether Emperor interrupted him.
"Let's go back to the palace. The event here has already in the finishing stage."
"En."
The Nether Emperor gently held Nineteen's hand and tugged him to follow along with him (The Nether Emperor) back to the Nether Palace.
Soon they had arrived at the study room of The Nether Emperor which he usually did most of the work in here. He guided Nineteen to sit on the sofa that was located on the west side of the desk. After they both had sat down, The Nether Emperor began to talk about that.
"What I have forgotten to tell you is that in a few months, there will be a congress which all The Nether Emperor of every realm must attend without any exception.
Each representative Nether Emperor of each realm must attend this conference, as it is concerning the upcoming Nether Tournament which holds annually in the Nether God Palace."
Nineteen listened attentively as The Nether Emperor still going on with his speech because this was a serious matter so he didn't dare to distract from anything.
"The meeting itself was nothing more than the discussion of what will be held on the tournament day and the process of how everything will proceed.
When will be the appropriate date?
What will happen on that day?
How many dead spirits will be selected?
Which activities will be played?
Which areas will be a focus in selecting the winners?
How will the reward system award the winners?
And that basically what the gathering is all about before the tournament day in another one month after this meeting ends. It usually takes 2 or 3 days to wrap up everything."
Nineteen nodded his head indicated that he understood about this congress. He seemed to sense that the Nether Emperor still hadn't finished his speech, so he instantly closed his mouth which wanted to ask a question. Then, The Nether Emperor carried on his talk.
"In the Netherworld, we have only one tournament, held annually. This time you can attend the congress with me and you also need to be present on the tournament day.
On the other hand, the primary purpose of the Tournament that I have mentioned above is very simple, it serves for the sake of the current Nether Emperor to be able to list down the potential candidates for the next Nether Emperor in his own Nether realm.
Although The Nether Emperor who has found his Empress is given a privilege, which stated that their reign is quite long compared to The Nether Emperor who hasn't found his Empress, he still could be in power for no longer than a thousand years.
Actually, This year would be my last year, but Nether God has blessed me to be able to find you. You don't know how long I have been waiting for you. In my subconscious, I know that you will appear one day in front of me, but I don't know whether will you appear now or at any time in the future.
Therefore, the moment that I saw you on that day and I saw the crystal orb shined, I was thrilled, nearly couldn't control myself. You know, I was on cloud nine during that time."
Nineteen saw the Nether Emperor for the first time, smiling like that. A very sincere, warm, and happy smile appeared on his face as his eyes looking deeply into Nineteen's own eyes.
Both of their heart was beating like crazy, but none of them noticed it as they were busy gazing intensely sweet at each other at the moment.
Nineteen took the initiative to sit on the Nether Emperor's lap and wrapped his arm around the Nether Emperor's neck at the same time they both didn't take their eyes off each other.
Nineteen didn't notice when did the Nether Emperor change their spiritual body to human form, spoke softly as he felt the heat from the Nether Emperor's body when he embraced him.
"I'm glad that I have come on time. Otherwise, I won't be able to see you."
Right after Nineteen finished speaking, a soft kiss was planted on his lips. Then another kiss came right after that. The soft and gentle kiss then turned into a passionate deep kiss.
The hands which rested on Ninteen's waist suddenly stirred as it moved downward along the thigh that idled on his lap, and then it shifted upward through the clothes to the waistline, eventually, it stayed where the soft white buns were at, kneading in the process.
A faint gasp was leaked from Nineteen's reddish swollen lips. Nineteen found it hard to hold his voice from moaning as his human body became sensitive after being touch by the Nether Emperor.
"Y-Your... majesty! hah...hah!"
"Call me One!"
Nineteen tried to call out the name of the Nether Emperor when suddenly he felt a hard object penetrated into him. He couldn't help but moan out loud while the Nether Emperor gave out a low groan.
"Ahh!...O-One...hah...One...t-too...too fast!"
So, the fire had already ignited, it would take a few hours to extinguish it. In the end, Nineteen fainted right after the fourth round. He was half awake when he heard a low voice told him to sleep and something at the end of that sentence that he couldn't hear as he immediately fell asleep without caring about what the man said.
But one thing he could clearly remember was, he finally knew his man's name after all this time since they were married.
'One'
Nineteen silently repeated this name in his heart while he fell asleep.
(A/N: Yeah! We have found this arc ML's name. 'One' and 'Nineteen' Pair. psst! 1 plus 19 equals 20 it can write as 11920 which is my birthday, 11th of September 2000. LOL)
