(Ethan's Perspective)
Ethan was looking at the sky, suddenly he started laughing like a madman.
"What happened, dear? Why are you laughing like this?" Cara asked worryingly.
After listening to Cara, he stopped laughing.
"Cara, I was just jealous of the protagonist. How can I, a boundless-tier (Tier-0) being, become jealous?" replied Ethan.
"Cara, I have decided to do what I want, not thinking about any consequences. After all, I am a Demon," said Ethan with a dangerous grin on his face.
"What are you planning, dear?" asked Cara in an anxious voice because when he laughed like this last time, he nearly caused a war in the Eternal Realm, involving nearly all Eternal Lords.
"Don't worry, Cara. What I just planned is simple: destroy my two physiques so that I can reach Celestial in my cultivation. After that, I will use my power to create the best physique and everything I need to become the strongest in this. After all, I am not like those protagonists who decide to become strong only after they lose someone important. Even these conditions do not apply to me," replied Ethan to ease Cara's worries.
"Okay, dear, if you are doing that, then you should let that girl devour your physique. That will help her awaken her physique fully."
"Hehehe, just now, I thought of a good plan to make her completely mine. Hahaha," laughed Ethan manically.
"What's the plan?" asked Cara.
"You will know after the tournament."
(Mei Hua's POV)
After that guy vanished, she decided to return to the castle.
While going back to the castle, a voice rang in her head.
"Won't you check his status to analyze his strength and weakness?"
"No, Mai, it won't be fair to him. If I know all his secrets, it won't be a fair fight."
"Are you sure? Because I felt like he was not simple."
"I am sure. And you don't have to worry about me. Didn't you tell me that I will be unbeaten not only in the lower plane but also in the upper plane from those who belong to the same generation as me?"
"Okay, okay. So, for the remaining time, what should we do?"
"Let's train and breakthrough into Sky Immortal so that if any variables appear, I will be ready."
"Didn't you say you would be okay?"
"I said I won't check his status, not that I won't train."
She smiled when she thought about how she would beat that arrogant guy and make him her slave.
"Oh! My dear daughter is smiling. Look like she went to meet her secret lover." When she was deep in thought, she heard a voice.
"He is not my lover," replied Mei Hua instantly. But after seeing her mother's shocked expression, she realized her mistake and blushed a bit.
"Oh my my! I did not think that my baby daughter went out to meet a man. She really has grown up." Teased Aria.
"So, when will my baby daughter introduce her man to me?" Aria continued.
After listening to her mother's teasing, she decided to strike back and said that she will bring him after the tournament and entered her room, leaving a shocked Aria behind.
When she entered her room, she thought that it would take two months to start the knockout stage, and she would meet him after two months.
The next morning, in a restaurant in the royal capital.
"Why are you here?" asked Mei Hua in disguised clothes.
"You really look beautiful even in normal clothes. As for your question, answer me first: Why are you here?" replied Ethan straightforwardly.
Of course, Ethan came to collect fate energy to increase his cultivation.
"I-I came to eat food here because I heard that they serve delicious foods," blushed Mei Hua while replying to Ethan.
After seeing her reply, Ethan asked her to eat food with him.
Even though she didn't like him because of his mouth, it does not mean that she hates him.
Just like that, two months have passed. In these two months, they encountered each other quite frequently and became quite close to each other.
Now both of them were running from guards as they played a prank on them so that they could enter the watchtower and saw the scene.
"Look like we escaped," said Mei Hua with a small smile on her face.
She turned her face to Ethan and saw his face. Her heartbeat started increasing.
Ethan was also not spared, and he decided to taste her juicy lips.
"Umm..." Mei Hua was shocked, and she did not react until the kiss was finished.
"What are you doing?" said Mei Hua with a red face. She really was shocked and didn't expect that he would kiss her.
"We have been together for two months, and I doubt you would mind. Let's meet tomorrow," replied Ethan shamelessly.
After saying this, he was about to go, but he stopped, turned back, and said, "Oh, by the way, my name is Ethan," and then disappeared.
(Mei Hua's POV)
After kissing and telling me his name, he disappeared like usual.
Ethan. To tell the truth, I don't mind when he kissed me. Even in both my lives, I never had fun with anyone.
"Look like I really fell in love with him, huh?" muttered Mei Hua.
"Yes, so much that you did not complete your goal of becoming Sky Immortal," commented Mai.
"I don't regret it," said Mei Hua with a beautiful smile and disappeared.
