Chapter 131 - Epilogue: Returning to the State of Boredom

Remuel was current stuck on his paperwork after leaving for a while. He felt the extreme level of boredom that he had suffered from before he investigated Luventrion. He sighed multiple times while working on the remaining papers that had piled up over the weeks.

"Haaah, this is quite boring..." Remuel quickly read through a proposal and quickly signed it as an approval. Affairs such as these were normally done by the three archons and the emperor. But since Remuel had been unavailable for some time, the approvals required were placed on a halt, allowing it to pile up. The papers that was sent to him were proposals coming from researchers from the [Preeliance Laboratory]. There were always some interesting ones which he can speak about but the work itself is mentally exhausting.

"Can't help it, you've been away for a while after all..." Lynx was the one accompanying Remuel this time. She remained in the room while trying to organize the papers around him. Remuel could only smile as he wasn't along in the room at the very least. "Yeah, I know that. Where are the other three by the way?" Remuel realized that Victorina, Bethany, and Noelle are currently not around.

"Noelle's cleaning your room. Victorina is in the lab, doing private research with Bethany. They making some tests using the [Book of Illusions] that you got from Luventrion's [Dungeon of Illusion]." Remuel let out a small voice of interest as the two were already starting to get along. "It feels relieving to see those two working together. We don't really understand anything about magic and such, and I feel a little bad about it." Lynx looked down as she felt guilty about being unable to do much. "You're the current head maid right? You're managing most of the maids here already, so I think that you're doing great already." Remuel paused his work to stand up and start to comfort Lynx. "It's because of you and Noelle that I don't have to tidy up by myself. I'm much lazier than the other three you know?" Remuel somewhat downplayed himself to at least give Lynx some confidence. "Besides, you're my fiancé, so nobody is allowed to look down on you. If someone did, then I'll slice them in half." Remuel pat her head while laughing lightly. He didn't mean to make her feel insecure but he simply did what he can to make sure she feels okay.

It was then Lynx smiled as she hugged Remuel. "Thanks, my lord." They remained from this position for a while which held up the work for a little bit more.

Later on the day, Remuel and Lynx left to take a break. They looked for Victorina, Bethany, and Noelle. It was the usual time for them to drink tea together as a future husband and his wives. And that was something that was usually arranged by Victorina forcefully to Remuel to ensure he never skips it unless he was on a mission.

"As usual, the tea is great." Remuel took a sip of the warm tea served by Noelle. They were located on the balcony of Remuel's living quarters. They observed the capital from the balcony while thinking about how fast the developments are. "Hey Victorina, should we pay a visit to Earth soon, we may go visit whenever you wish you know?" Remuel recalled something important while asking her a question. Since the current Earth was now surrounded by many clones made from the Council of the Skies. Draxus had already gotten rid of many clones, but seeing as each clone had similar power to the real person, it was a bad take for Draxus to fight the archon clones by himself.

"Well, I don't have any plans at the moment. If we take too long before we visit though, my parents would've already gotten my clone married off somewhere. But that doesn't really matter. Besides, we have two of the Sentinels currently wandering around there. It's a good thing that their leader already got some cash converted by circulating some gold in the market back there. His pace is crazy as usual." Remuel laughed as he already knew who she's talking about. "It's Draxus after all." Victorina widened her eyes as if reminded by something. "Ah right, Serkyrio might contact you later Remuel. Arlesk told me that there's going to be a crazy occurrence that will happen within this month, so you may be called out to help for preparations." Remuel's interest was piqued from the upcoming trouble. But there was nothing announced yet so Remuel had to await for Serkyrio to summon him.

They continued their tea without any disturbances. The boredom was there for Remuel, but with his fiancés around, he stopped worrying about himself.
