Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

But, Dyon had to play these matters of the Federation correctly. Even if he could sweep through all of their missions in an instant and claim every universe of the tower quadrants for himself, it would be nothing short of foolish for him to do so. 

If he acted in this way, how would the other Clans react? Some might accept it out of fear of the Sacharro Clan's strength, but many would not. 

Those who joined the Federation, despite knowing they weren't as strong as the best Clans, only did so because they had a faint light of hope. As for the strongest Clans, they were confident in their abilities to profit from these matters. 

But what if Dyon overbearingly snatched all those hopes from them? They would definitely react violently. 

Therefore, Dyon had to be tactful… At least in the beginning. He would allow the geniuses beneath him to shine. In this way, the other Clans would stand a chance and the backlash wouldn't be as severe. 

When the time was right, he would spring forward, righteously claiming lands for himself. Even if they complained at that point, it would already be too late. Dyon's power would be consolidated. Once he succeeded, there was a chance he might be able to conquer the tower quadrants before the battlefield descended. 

In order to accomplish this, he of course needed geniuses. The Mortal Clan geniuses weren't ready yet, but he had the Demon Generals and the Elves. Plus, in about another ten to twenty years, he'd be able to create another batch. 

Of course… He had his wives as well. 

That said, though Dyon had indeed come here for serious matters related to this, he most importantly came for something else entirely… And that was, of course, to tease his wife. 

Under the reverent gazes of the elves and with his mother-in-law chuckling by his side, Dyon flashed forward, silently appearing behind Ri's meditating figure. 

That day, the shriek of an Elvin Queen shook their territory. 

Watching Dyon carry Ri's delighted figure away, Kawa shook her head. 

"What are you all looking at, back to work!" Kawa scolded the once meditating elves. "You're all so slow, you've lost face for our Elvin Clan. Everyone fought but you all, aren't you ashamed to rely on your Queen to maintain your position?!" 

Hearing these words, a fire burned in the belly of the elves. They had a legacy of running for so long… A once mighty race, the ruler of an Era, crushed under their own progress. It was time for them to rise up once more! 

Seeing that they focused on their task at hand once more, Kawa nodded and left to her own training. Before her seal was undone, she had to train her body to the celestial realm. If she couldn't do this even with the talent of the Celestial Fox and the resources Dyon poured into her, she would be too ashamed to raise her head. 

Kawa sighed. 'Husband… I hope you find your path…'

"Look at you." Dyon's eyes greedily raked over Ri's body. 

"Stop looking at me like that." Ri's tails suddenly appeared to whip at Dyon's forehead. 

"Ah…" Dyon rubbed his head. It seemed his wife had stepped up her forehead flicking game. He actually felt it that time. Usually, he feigned it to make her feel better. 

"Hmph. You interrupted me while I was at an important stage and made me lose face in front of them all. You can forget about whatever perverted thoughts you're holding in that thick skull." 

Ri pouted, her petite figure spinning to look away from her husband. 

Dyon couldn't help but grin. Because of how Ri matured, he almost forgot that she was the very same girl who once dressed more like a man than a woman. Her demeanor was just as fiery as Clara's if you got on her bad side. 

"Oh, come on, it was just a little prank. Plus, do you think I only come to see you when I have perverted thoughts? Your husband is a very wholesome man. I have no such thoughts." 

"Oh yea? Then why did you bring me to these bedchambers instead of the elders' gathering room?" 

Dyon touched his nose awkwardly. "Coincidence. Pure coincidence." 

Dyon couldn't help but laugh internally. She looked so happy just a moment ago, but now everything had changed. 

Still, he understood why. Ri was of course worried about her father and her parents' relationship. Though he understood this, there really wasn't much he could do. Though Dyon didn't think himself to be a bad leader, it wasn't within his capabilities to help someone gain confidence in themselves. In fact, if he tried to help Edrym, it might have the opposite effect. 

Dyon stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Ri's waist. Though she was facing away from him, he could still read her expression of worry. 

"He'll be fine. Don't forget, he's one of the rare True Empaths to ever be born. No one is in a better position than he is to understand his own truth." 

Ri subconsciously leaned back, sighing lightly. 

"I don't agree with what he did…" She said softly. "… But I can't blame him for it either…" 

"Some things are wrong no matter what path you take. If I had to leave Little Alauna to save you, would I do it? I think I would have to." 

Ri trembled before smiling lightly. "You're just trying to butter me up. I won't be spreading my legs for you today." 

Her hand slapped away an evil hand preparing to slide up her petite body. 

"Don't tell me you want a family too?" Dyon said deviously. "If you ask nicely, I could magnanimously put a baby in you. It'll be trying on my wholesome identity, but whatever makes my wife happy." 

Ri scoffed. "Where did you get that idea from? Also, if you ever dare to leave Little Alauna to save me, I'll never forgive you. Wait until she's grown up." 

Dyon could tell that Ri meant these words. Though her parents came back, just like him, she understood the pain of them disappearing.
