"Right, I forgot to tell you about this. There seems to be a secret realm born in this mortal universe 100 years ago at the edge of the central plane. According to locals, it only opened two times, the first one was when it was born, and the second time was 50 years after. And based on their calculation, it will open this year in the next few months. I and my other sister tried to inspect it, but even with the power of my Great Dao of Illusion, Music, and Truth, I could not see through it, the same went for Adele and Cecilia. We were blocked by the powerful Great Daos of Truth, something like Fate and some other powerful Great Daos who are already in Perfections, at the very least there should be 5 Great Daos preventing us from seeing through it let alone force our way to enter. So, we concluded that it must be somehow related to you." She paused.
"We decided to enter this time to verify our theory, alas, here you are near beside me." A beautiful smile bloomed on her face. "Want me to visit my other two good sisters in an instant to notify them or not, so you can tease them further?"
Her beautiful smile formed into a smirk that was instantly banished. The thought of being ahead of her other sisters in terms of meeting Azrael in the real world, made her want to smirk ear to ear. Especially, when she thought of that particular wife of Azrael that loves to compete that's currently traveling in the Divine Realm with the purpose of 'to be the first wife to find Azrael'. She couldn't help but reminisce about the time that she was born in the real world. She was so surprised when she saw that sister of hers standing near the midwife, looking at her, of course, the others couldn't see that sister of hers.
Her sister intentionally visited her just to inform her that she was currently traveling in the Mortal Realm to find Azrael trying to reel her up so she can have someone to compete with. Took the bite, she did not. With their Saint Lord Cultivation, it is no problem for them to sense and scrutinize the millions of mortal universes, and when she senses that her other sisters were scattered throughout the Divine Realm, she was assured that wherever Azrael is in the real world, her other sisters would be there to welcome him. She would rather wait here to let him come and find her, that was more exciting for her. Of course, knowing that she beats that competition addict sister of hers made her heart pumped with excitement, a different kind of excitement. [A/N: They can sense each other wherever they are because of what Azrael did, but they have different method to sense 'something' although still limited, for example a Saint Lord is capable of scrutinizing every details of millions of universes without problem(Not the limit). So don't be confused about why the other wife would suddenly appear in others' front. Additional, the 'sister' used here is just a way calling the other harem member.]
"No, you should join Lian when she goes to Mystic Island. Pass my message to her, wait for me. And as for Cecilia, well, I will meet her when the secret realm opens."
Hearing this, a genuine smile formed on Bianca's face. With how long they were in the Azrael's harem, they were already graduated with jealousy and such, although there is specific someone that would rile things up just to have someone to compete with, not that Azrael mind. Having healthy competition inside his harem is also a good thing.
"Then, your wish is my command." She teased to which Azrael replied with pats.
"I should be going now." She kissed Azrael, before getting up from the bed and dressing up. She could have taken a bath here and cleaned herself up before going but making a great scene within this estate makes her excited. She really likes the 'setting' of Dillon's daughter becoming in love with their guest.

Seeing her leave without taking a bath, Azrael could only shake his head. He was aware of Bianca's intention.
That day the talks about Bianca leaving Azrael's quarter spread again. The interesting part was although she dressed neatly, one could still smell the lingering scent of the night of passion.
Hearing this, even Maxwell couldn't help but contort his face into a frown. But he knows that he shouldn't dwell on his sister's love affair like his father would do. What he found weird was that his father whom he expected to storm Azrael's quarter didn't happen.

On the training ground, Lian took a powerful punch from her training partner.
"Young Miss!" Riana and Lian's training partner exclaimed and dashed towards her.
Cough! Cough!
She coughed while trying to stand up.
"I am alright." She said,
The reason why she suddenly took a punch was that she was distracted by what she 'heard' from the passing servant.
For a great moment, she was internally conflicted and her chest felt a stinging pain for a reason she could not fathom.
"Well, well, it is rare to see you taking a clean hit."
All turned their heads towards the voice owner except for one person, Lian.
Her heart palpated at an incredible rate which she found not so pleasing when she heard the voice she was used to hearing with this way and tone of talking these past few days. And when she thought about the rumors she was hearing recently, her eyes couldn't help but moist a little. She lowered her head and bit her lower lip, trying to prevent the moistening of her eyes.
"I-I-I am going to rest!" Lian said in a high-pitched tone that startled both her training partner and Riana. She dashed towards their mansion while her head was still lowered.
[Why? Why can't I face Azrael and just the thought of it made my chest hurt? Am I really that against someone of my age becoming my uncle? Or am I just against the idea of 'Azrael' becoming my uncle?] She thought.
Riana looked at Lian's departing back. She then thought of something and sighed.
Meanwhile, Azrael couldn't help but shake his head before looking at Riana.
"Good job at being maid of Lian."
Rian turned her head towards Azrael, she looked at him weirdly as if wanting to say something, but her words caught by her throat.
"Un." She could only nod.
After Azrael left, she dashed towards Lian's direction.

"I must say that I am surprised that you would be so honest and earnest about cutting the grass."
Azrael said towards Julius who was currently cutting grass with his utmost focus.
He stayed silent, continuing his job to which Azrael found no offense. He let Julius be absorbed in cutting grass and watched him as he went to a poorly built hut.
After an hour, Julius sheathed his sword and walked towards his hut, when he saw Azrael in his hut, he bowed before proceeding to walk towards his hut.
"How's your life these past days?" Azrael asked.
Julius stayed silent for a few seconds before opening his mouth. "Thank you." He uttered, "Thank you for giving me this kind of task, being away from bustling city, away from my peers and away from my status. Although only a few days have passed since then, it was still enough for me to reflect on my past actions. You may find it unbelievable though."
"If others were to stand in your position, I would say it was unbelievable and they were just faking it. But on the other hand, your true nature was just honest and earnest, a loving son and protective brother. A young man who is running from the reality he couldn't face nor accept when he was just a boy."
Julius looked at him incredibly, his eyes widened as if he was seeing a ghost.
"H-how?" A simple question was what he can only utter at this moment.
"Nothing can elude me." A simple yet domineering sentence came out of Azrael's mouth.
Julius saw an illusion where the young man who looks a few years younger than him looked so majestic and supreme. For a moment he has the urge to kneel and worship him.
He was in a shocked state for a good few minutes before he woke up and looked at Azrael before bowing once more, this time a genuine smile appeared on his mouth.
"This should be enough for my rest." He stood up and went to a place where thick grass can be found.
