Accepting Agnus' mission, I set off for the world where the monster resides. The world I had arrived in was a hellscape.

Everything in this world was either dead or broken down. Life in this world has diminished. And the monster I was supposed to eliminate was the only energy signal I could find.

Looking in the distance, I could see the monster. It was more human-like than I thought it would be in a physical sense.

Because of the radiation from this world, I could see that it was more like a zombie than anything else.

The monster was inactive. Was it sleeping? I was curious to see what would happen when I woke up the monster. But because of what happened with Iris, those desires had to be locked up.

While it was essential to eliminate this monster immediately, it was disappointing that I couldn't see what to do with it.

Cursing the mutated zombie, I ensured it was sealed with all its senses cut off. I didn't know if the zombie had any recovery-type abilities, so to finish this monster off, I should delete its brain.

First, I grabbed a sickle that induced slowness. I feel like I'm being paranoid right now. Did my fuckup with Iris mess with my head? I have never been this careful before.

Since the zombie's senses were cut off, I should be able to finish it quickly. Pointing my sickle into the zombie's head, I stabbed the brain, and the green liquid started to squirt.

The zombie's eyes had opened, and I could feel it starting to move. Even with such a wound, it survived without much issue.

Opening its mouth, I felt a strong suction pull me over to him. Was it trying to eat me? I then disabled its lungs, and the force from the zombie's mouth stopped.

"Scary..."

The zombie's ability was strong enough to freeze me. Before it could do anything else, I had severed its neck and the limbs attached to it. It shouldn't be able to move anymore. Even when I cut off all its limbs, I could still tell it could somehow move.

Was it also immortal? I couldn't remove this zombie's immortality since I wasn't the cause. The next best thing I could do was burn this zombie into ash.

I took out an enhanced flame thrower and made the flame thrower go into full power. A few seconds later, the zombie turned into ashes.

To ensure the zombie wouldn't regenerate, I put all the ashes into a sealing jar. I thought the battle was going to be more anticlimactic. But my heart had almost jumped, seeing how it could quickly devour me.

"Agnus, the mission is finished. Do you want the monster? I have sealed him in a jar."

"Can you not kill him?"

"I don't know if this thing can regenerate. It was resilient when I tried to kill it. It may already be dead, but I can't let the possibility of it being alive go."

"I have a feeling that you should keep it. You're free to do whatever you want. You shouldn't keep your lovers waiting."

With that, Agnus hastily ended the call. He was right. Even though it had only been a day, I had already tried to postpone the meeting with the girls.

Nene and Claire were straightforward people. They clarified their emotions, making it easier for us to avoid this whole drama.

When I return, Rose should be the first person I visit. Out of the four, she should be the easiest to meet.

There was no longer a reason to stay in this destroyed world, so I returned home and prepared my heart for the upcoming talk I would have.

"Rose? Do you mind if we talk?"

"Come in."

Knocking on her door and calling her, she allowed me to enter. Unlike her usual maid outfit, she had her sleepwear. It was already somewhere early in the morning, and Rose should have just woken up.

"Charles, is it truly impossible to follow you?"

"Yes, getting into the sixth realm and above requires a price to pay. No god or goddess would do that to people they are not interested in."

I understand where Rose was coming from, but the gods must sacrifice power to do so. And they won't do that to people they have no interest in. I'm not saying the girls I have weren't attractive, but to the gods, they probably have seen more people they were more interested in.

"..."

The room turned quiet as Rose knew that we would be separated. What made this situation even more shit was that this wouldn't be the last time I felt this way.

"Rose, do you have anything you want now? I have all the time I've got."

Breaking down the ice was what I had initially planned to do. I want to say my goodbyes to everyone on a happy note.

"Then can I go where I want?"

"Choose anywhere you desire."

I may regret it, but it will all be worth it if it breaks the mold and lifts her spirit.

[Third-Person POV]

"Master Iris, you have returned. Was the summoning ritual successful?"

"Successful? I wouldn't say that, but I found something interesting."

"Interest?"

"I promised them I would bring them in a year. As for who, you will see at that time."

The servant's eyes widened at Iris' words. Bringing someone from a lower world to an upper one would be expensive. And the price for sending someone to the upper world is a tenth of your divinity.

"Master Iris, are you serious? You know how many enemies you have! Someone will strike if you do that!"

"That may be true, but I think this talent is worth it."

Iris, the blood goddess, had said nothing else. She went to her throne and sat there in silence.

Iris felt that a power shift would happen because of Charles. All she needed to do was prepare for this shift.
