Stuart quickly told Chloe about her plan.
This battle actually had a chance of coming to an end.
The premise was that the Sword Hero could be taken off the battlefield.
At that time, when they were fighting in the Shadow Plane, they were too deep into the battlefield.
Now, being dragged by both sides, the Sword Hero had no chance to escape.
So what they needed to do now was to quickly assemble a reserve army and tear open a path for rescue.
Emotionally.
They couldn't just watch the Sword Hero die.
Rationally.
If the Sword Hero was also killed, another world-shaking war would erupt across the World Group.
At that time, the entire world would evolve into a Thunder Puppet Theater-like universe —
Ordinary people would have to respawn like NPCs at regular intervals, or there wouldn't be enough deaths.
Chloe self-deprecatingly said:
"Looks like The Stars are not just watching idly; they can still give us some reaction time."
Lack of Supreme Martial Power was like this.
Even if surrounded and attacked, they could only defend passively.
"Yes, the deities are helping; otherwise, we would've been beaten by the Evil Gods of both World Groups long ago."
Hard to appraise.
Chloe didn't know what to say now.
He almost forgot that he was still Sequence Six in real life.
One after another...
If not fighting Demigods, then angels.
They might even be confronting the Angel King or even True Gods.
Truly not playing low-tier games, right?
But he carefully recalled the events of this period.
According to history, the Dark Night Goddess indeed died.
But the Fallen God couldn't be taken away by the two World Groups either.
The final outcome of the Dark Night Goddess and the Fallen God was that they turned into a Divine Abomination.
Chloe pondered for a moment and said:
"Is there a possibility to find a way for Shire and the Fallen God she hatched to perish together?"
Stuart nodded and said:
"It's possible; in fact, that's what I'm thinking. If we can reduce the loss to just hatching a Divine Abomination, then no matter how severe, it's within a controllable range."
"Might not be impossible."
Chloe thought for a bit.
He began to suspect that the core purpose of this historical echo was to let him and Stuart rescue the Sword Hero together and give Shire, this goddess, a perfect conclusion.
Indeed.
The several biggest calamities of the Era of Turmoil were the Seven Deadly Sins being assimilated by The Stars, causing polluted forces to pour into the continent, creating the notorious [Seven Great Calamities].
The Divine Abomination of the Dark Night Goddess was one of the Seven Great Calamities.
And the being that ended the Divine Abomination of the Dark Night Goddess was the future emperor, [Destruction Black Sun].
So...
"Was it the child of Stuart and me who calmed this global catastrophe?"
For some reason, Chloe couldn't find any words to express at this moment.
Forget it.
Not thinking too much about it.
Let Stuart figure it out herself.
The celebration for the coronation came to an end.
But the storm triggered by Stuart's ascension quietly began.
It started with the appointment of the prince.
If Emperor Ensar was male, the partner was called the Empress.
If female, the partner was called the Prince.
However, whether Empress or Prince, the two would share this Supreme power together.
But according to normal rules, the candidate usually had a fiancé or fiancée before ascending the throne.
This way, all parties also had expectations for the handover of power.
But when the empress was still a princess, she did not become engaged.
By her own will, she vetoed all marriage arrangements, even the former emperor and empress couldn't stop her.
The nobles weren't very aware of the inside story.
They only heard that the princess managed to get the tacit approval of the Elder Council through some means.
As a result, just after the coronation, the prince, whom they thought might take a long time to appear, surfaced so quickly.
For a moment, the entire empire was in turmoil.
Some departments that needed a prince to govern began to hand over work urgently.
They had to rush to the royal palace to pay respects to the new prince and report their work in time.
Chloe found all this incredibly annoying.
Fortunately, the assistant team specially assigned to him soon assumed their roles, allowing him to finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Freed from these constraints, he quickly got a chance to catch his breath.
But once the work handover was complete, the Elder Council had further matters to address.
The visitor was precisely one of the Four Elders.
He stroked his beard and pulled Chloe away. Before Chloe could ask what was happening, he was surrounded by a group of fashion designers.
It was at this moment he realized that the Four Elders wanted him to prepare the attire he would wear for the marriage.
Amidst the scalp-tingling measurements, the maids watched Chloe with great curiosity.
Normally, Chloe would use his Extraordinary Power to hide his whereabouts.
With the maids' level of ability, it was impossible for them to discern his presence.
This was their first time seeing the rumored [Ghost Face].
Nevertheless, the maids soon shifted their gazes.
They had already noticed the resentful look in the new prince's eyes.
Chloe didn't say much.
He truly couldn't be bothered with such matters.
In his previous life, he lived how he found it most comfortable.
Just as his scalp tingled, Stuart's voice rang out.
"Dress well, don't embarrass me when the time comes."
Chloe looked up and saw the queen smiling mischievously, giving Chloe a strange look up and down.
"Don't look at me like that. I'm also preparing my dress, okay? Not much more leisurely than you."
Seeing Chloe's deadly gaze, Stuart smiled and said:
"I'll tell them to keep it as simple as possible."
Chloe sighed.
Actually, compared to things like this, Chloe was more used to staying in the practice room. Quick cultivation and improving upgrade speed were more important.
Stuart waved his hand to let people dismiss.
Chloe pinched the bridge of her nose and said:
"The royal family is still too complicated, really not interesting at all."
"It's just because we stand relatively high, that's all. Don't worry, the rest of those things can basically be handled by others. Compared to this, shouldn't we discuss something?"
Chloe lazily said:
"If you have something to say, just say it. What's our relationship?"
Stuart snorted lightly and said:
"Still, let's talk after everyone leaves."
"..."
Looking at Stuart's mischievous smile, a premonition of glory flashed in his heart.
Sure enough, in the next second, Stuart said:
"You... better be mentally prepared, after all, we'll be sleeping in the same room by then."
The smile on Chloe's face gradually disappeared:
"Do I still have a chance to back out?"
"Are you joking?" Stuart waved his hand and said, "Given our situation, you can't possibly expect us to sleep apart. When we have a child, how are you going to explain it to the Elder Council? Say we sleep in different rooms but indeed have a child?"
"..."
"And you also have to consider, if this kind of thing is revealed, how will the royal family cope? How will you cope?"
"..."
"Don't forget our goal, which is to use the royal family's power to quickly complete the foundation accumulation, break through to Demigod and engage in battle. If people think we've had a falling-out, you can't guarantee that those old guys who control resources won't have thoughts."
"..."
"And, more importantly, don't you want to have a good chat about those little secrets with me?"
Stuart gently helped Chloe adjust her collar, and his mouth uttered words that made him shiver:
"Xiaoke doesn't like me now!"
Chloe's scalp tingled, looking at Stuart's expression, it was like looking at a demon:
"Can't you not talk nonsense?"
"What do you mean I'm talking nonsense?" Stuart said with a sly smile, "In my memory, there's a Treasure Elf who always liked to hang around a fool, calling out Xiaoke, Xiaoke."
Chloe's hackles were raised.
"Stuart, don't mess with me."
"Haha, rest assured, she's not me, if you have to say we are different flowers from the same branch."
Chloe finally came around.
No choice.
What Stuart said really made his scalp tingle.
The term Xiaoke was, for him, especially reserved for Nini, aside from a few elders.
Stuart mimicked Nini, calling Xiaoke, directly turning him into a mess.
He frowned and said:
"What's going on with Nini over there?"
Stuart smiled and said:
"Better to let her tell you directly."
As she finished speaking, her head lowered a little.
When she looked up again, those eyes had transformed from one kind of sharpness to another.
Those beautiful eyes quickly filled with mist.
"Xiaoke, are you okay?"
Nini rushed over with a tense face.
Chloe was accidentally rinsed with facial cleanser.
But the Treasure Elf seemed unaware of this, still clinging to his head repeatedly, like holding a lost and found treasure.
Chloe struggled a bit, instinctively took a deep breath.
Only then did Nini realize something was wrong, letting go and saying:
"Ah, sorry, didn't hurt you, did I?"
"Hmm, I'm fine."
Chloe, whose face had been held tight for a while, was a bit flushed.
He waved his hand in front of his face, and exhaled a breath before saying:
"What's the situation with you two? Two souls inhabiting one body."
"I don't know, honestly. I'm usually not conscious most of the time. It was only just now when she woke me up that I realized you were here. Oh, Xiaoke, that woman is so bad, she…"
Nini was just about to report when her little head drooped down.
When it raised again, she had reverted to Stuart's expression.
Chloe softly said:
"So what exactly is your situation?"
Stuart nervously twirled a lock of hair by his ear and said:
"I have cleansed my own information once."
"Hmm?"
"You could say I didn't want to retain too many reincarnation memories, so I washed myself into a blank slate to start fresh."
"So…"
"Yes, you might've heard me mention information matters early on. That child's information partially overlaps mine, while a portion... belongs to her life."
"That's quite the maneuver…"
"Think of it as a higher-level dual soul entity, but I can't let her out during the day, so…"
Chloe's expression turned a bit complex.
He lowered his voice and said: "You're not thinking…"
"Yes, Chloe, you sleep with her at night."
For some reason, he really felt like punching his old buddy.
