The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 192: How Could There Be Such a Good Thing

After a sumptuous dinner, Lynn invited his three wives for a walk outside.

But Catherine refused, preferring to stay back and wash dishes with the children.

Lynn even mentioned that he would be busy tomorrow and couldn’t accompany them, but Catherine still remained unmoved, repeatedly stating she was a guest and it was inconvenient for a guest to accompany the hostess and host.

In the end, only Vivian and Natasha accompanied him on either side for a stroll around the city.

After some time of governance, Celestial Destiny City may not have transformed drastically, but at least it was improving.

Now, even the night market in Celestial Destiny City was much livelier than before, and along the way, Lynn bought them many small gifts, but only brought one back for Catherine.

Catherine, being so stingy, should be thankful to receive a gift and not be too spoiled.

"Life is really good now. If only it could be like this forever."

Walking openly on the street, arm in arm with her lover, Natasha was full of joy. She was born in a less fortunate era, her world suffering an invasion by the brutal Demon Race.

But this hard-won time of peace is truly blissful. Not only did she not have to suffer from war, but she also attached herself to the hero she admired and loved the most. Such a life was something she wouldn’t have dared to dream of before, but now she was truly experiencing it.

"Mm-hmm, if only there never were Demons, it would be even better..."

Vivian nodded in agreement, her kind heart unable to stand the suffering of the human world, yet she lacked the power to change anything. Now, this was really wonderful. With no Demons, no bad people, she could live carefree with her beloved man and obedient, sensible children.

One day, when she had her own children, it would be complete...

It’s not that she didn’t like Little Youli and Little Yuna, just that they didn’t feel connected by blood, and something seemed missing.

"Don’t worry. The Demon Race was scared out of their wits by the great war a year ago and dare not invade again. Now that they know Lord Lynn is still on the Divine Protection Continent, they won’t dare come over."

Natasha, holding Lynn’s arm, saw Vivian on the other side timidly holding the corner of Lynn’s clothes. Her heart ached for this shy Wei Bao, and she comforted her.

"It does seem that way. Mm-hmm! It’s good to have Lynn here!"

Vivian responded with a smile, moving in a little closer to Lynn, wanting to be nearer, but because of their high visibility in Celestial Destiny City, everywhere they went people would stare, so she didn’t dare to act too boldly.

"With me here, you don’t need to worry about these things. Even if the day of war returns, I’ll be at the frontline, and you just cheer for me from behind."

Saying that Lynn held tightly onto the hand Vivian was using to hold onto him. He now had the confidence to say such things. The Demon Race’s top-tier forces had been decimated, and the new ones were laughably weak. Lynn really didn’t take them too seriously.

Unless another monstrous powerhouse like the Demon Dragon Emperor appeared in the Demon Realm, otherwise with him holding the fort, the Miracle World had at least an eighty percent chance of victory in this two-world war.

"How can that be? Natasha is now extremely... uh, excessively strong. If there’s another chance to go to the battlefield, I wouldn’t let the chance to team up with Helena pass, and together we’d smash them to pieces."

Natasha, who had ascended to level 720, was now bursting with confidence. At this level, she was already at the National Guardian War Saint level, just a step away from entering the Saint Emperor ranks. If there never were another chance to showcase her strength, it would be quite regrettable.

"But Helena is now the emperor, how can she go to battle with you?"

Vivian leaned in and asked a boastful Natasha.

"Uh... this..."

Natasha was left speechless for a moment and stammered.

Oh right, Helena is the emperor now, so it’s very unlikely she’d have the chance to personally go into battle.

Even if she were to lead an expedition, it wouldn’t be her personally charging into the fray, especially since she doesn’t have an heir. The officials and ministers would definitely not agree to her riding into battle against the Demon Race.

"No worries, I can just take on a dragon by myself; without Helena, I can still go wild!"

Natasha’s words lacked confidence. Although she could fight alone, after being a mount for so many years, she had adapted to the fighting style of a Dragon Knight. Abruptly changing back to fighting solo would somewhat affect her strength.

Now she was at level 720, and Helena was at level 720 too. If Helena rode on her, they would have the confidence to battle an ordinary Saint Emperor-level powerhouse. But if it were her alone, even soaring to level 720, she might not be able to defeat a seasoned, high-level Saint Tier.

Dragon Knights and dragons are complementary to each other; missing either would reduce their fighting power. Who would’ve known that such a grand thing as Helena becoming the emperor would trip her up.

"Don’t keep thinking about fighting and killing. Can’t you hope for something good? Like hoping that the Demon Race won’t attack Miracle World anymore and starts fighting amongst themselves?"

As Lynn said this, he patted Natasha’s head, implying that as a girl, just being lively was enough, no need to think about wreaking havoc.

Moreover, if all his efforts in the Demon Realm still resulted in a war between the two worlds, then it would all have been for naught, right?

Whenever war breaks out, it inevitably leads to bloodshed and sacrifice, a waste of resources. How much better it would be for the Demon Race to fight amongst themselves. Even if Miracle World wanted to avenge the blood debts of all these years, it could wait until the Demon Race weakened themselves to the point of exhaustion.

"There’s no such good thing. Even if the Demon Race is afraid of you, Lord Lynn, they have other worlds they can invade. Why fight amongst themselves?"

Coming from the ancient and once dominant race of Giant Dragons, Natasha’s blood memory was rich in content.

She knew that Miracle World wasn’t the first world the Demon Race had invaded. Before this, there were at least twenty worlds that had been completely destroyed by them, and what frightened her the most was that while invading Miracle World, there were many branches of the Demon Race invading other worlds too.

This is to say that Miracle World was never facing the full power of the Demon Realm. It was likely the main force since the highest being, the Demon Dragon Emperor, and the Seven Great Demon Kings had all fought in Miracle World.

And that time when divine weapons came down, destroying the top-tier forces of the Demon Race, was a true event. If they hadn’t suffered unbearable losses, the proud Demon Race wouldn’t have fled like frightened dogs, nor would they avoid battle afterward like turtles retreating into their shells.

Natasha told these things to Lynn, leaving him, who only knew the background of the "Miracle" game, silent.

He hadn’t really known that the remaining strength of the Demon Realm wasn’t the entirety of the Demon Race’s power. The Seven Great Demon Kings from before seemed to have hidden something from him. He might have to interrogate them further next time he visits.
