Chapter 194 194 - Questions
When Ryan opened his eyes, his body was completely intact. His clothes were intact and even his backpack didn't have a scratch on it. His body was floating on top of the lake, while a tender rain fell from the sky.
The whole region was now sunnier, and as Ryan's eyes opened, he felt his eyes sting as if he had long been trapped in darkness.
"What happened?" he said.
At the top of that region, there were just a few gray clouds amidst the blue expanse. Getting up, he froze the water and started walking along the lake. From one side to the other, birds and other animals were screaming. The whole forest was in disharmony, and the same could be said for Ryan's mind.
"Nyx?" He asked, confused. But he got no answer.
"Lux?!" He shouted, but didn't hear that girl's voice.
When Ryan raised his head again, his eyes widened as he realized what had happened. Now there was only one island in the sky, all the others had been knocked down with the death of the flying serpent.
"But how did the snake die?" He asked himself. Turning around, he found the creature's body lying motionless near the edge of the lake. There were no wounds, blood or cuts on the animal's body, it was as if the monster's life had been taken without a single physical touch.
'Soul reaper?'
Walking across the frozen lake, Ryan approached the snake's body. It was still possible to feel the monster's energy, the flow of mana was decreasing by the second. With a single touch, the creature's body turned into hundreds of particles of light, disappearing because the portal challenge had already been completed.
"If this monster was so strong, how did I defeat it?" He said, and suddenly the forest fell silent.
In the blink of an eye, Ryan was thrown out of the portal.
"Are you okay, kid? The portal was starting to turn blue," said one of the guild operators, who was playing cards in front of the gigantic red portal.
When Ryan turned around, the portal disappeared, shrinking to the size of a grain of sand.
<Are you all right?" Nyx asked, confused.
Ryan nodded, "You weren't listening to me?
<I don't know where I was> said the girl.
- 'We were watching you enter the cave and then, everything went dark and we emerged here -'
Looking up at Lacaster's late afternoon sky, Ryan's mind began to work out what had happened.

"The feeling I had was similar to what happened at the portal to the abyss," said Ryan, who was sitting in the armchair in his office.
"Similar to the portal to the abyss... That was the first time we both lost contact with each other," said Nyx, who was sitting at her workbench.
Activating his Demon Sight, Ryan raised his sword, which was lying on the table, and looking at his own reflection in the blade, he closed both eyes.
"Something must be wrong with me"
Concentrating, he tried to observe the flow of demonic energy that his body naturally possessed, but there was nothing out of place.
"I'm sure that creature killed me," Ryan said, confused.
"Are you sure it did? I didn't notice anything," said Nyx.
"If that snake had killed you, we wouldn't be here now," said the angel girl.
"I'm sure what happened," said Ryan.
Turning his sword, he stuck the blade in the center of his chest, piercing his heart in the same place that the snake's fang had gone through.
"RYAN NO!"
"MASTER!"
Ryan's eyes remained open throughout, turning with a smile as he watched the two sisters disappear while his own life ebbed away. Ryan's warm red blood was dripping down the blade as his vision became increasingly blurred.
Thousands of miliseconds before he lost consciousness, he opened both eyes wide. A message had appeared in front of him.
-------
[The Soul]

When Ryan woke up, his cell phone was vibrating with messages. Once again, his body was completely restored and there was no trace of blood in the room. As his consciousness returned, he noticed the warm sensation he was getting under and on top of his head.
'What's that?' he thought.
"You can't sleep in the middle of your office, my love," said Olivia, who was kneeling as she petted Ryan's head. Removing his head from the girl's thighs, Ryan raised his body as he looked around the room.
"Where's my sword?" He asked, confused.
Olivia turned her face away in confusion, and pointed at the weapon lying on the floor in front of him.
"I found you and that sword lying on the floor, is that the new weapon you ordered?"
Ryan activated his Demon Sight and assessed his sword, then, raising his head, he shouted.
"Come out!"
Nyx and Lux appeared in front of him, materializing.
"What was that?" The succubus said, confused. And upon realizing Ryan's presence, she knelt down and grabbed the boy. In tears, she started repeating over and over, "Why did you do that?"
"Why did you do it?"
"Why did you do it?"
....
* * *
It took a while for the other girls to come to terms with what had happened. Even with Nyx's words, it was as if they preferred to imagine that it hadn't happened.
This event stirred something in RYan, who was extremely pensive that night.
"That message that appeared to me... I remember seeing it another time," he said aloud, as he watched the night sky over the city of Neodrazzil.
*Sigh
'Does this mean I've overcome death?
There were so many doubts and possibilities that Ryan's head didn't know how to process it all. Stretching, he walked to his room and fell into bed to sleep.
* * *
"You're interesting, Ryan"
"Very interesting"
Ryan touched his waistband, looking for a gun, but there was nothing. Looking from side to side, he searched for the presence of the woman who was telling him this.
"Accept my gifts"
Ryan stood up abruptly, waking Olivia and Rose who were lying in the same bed as him.
"Did you have a nightmare, my love?" said the healer.
"Did you eat before bed? Hunger can give you nightmares."
Placing a hand on his forehead, Ryan tried to recognize that person's voice. He had heard that call before, it was a woman's voice, but it wasn't the guardians.
Touching his own chest, he once again activated his Demon Sight.
'What's going on?' he thought, indignant at his own posture.
'I'm not going to let them control me, I'm not going to be another toy in this game of Gods.
Olivia approached Ryan and gave him a kiss on the neck, relieving some of the hatred and stress he was feeling. Rose approached and ran her hand over his chest, and slowly she laid him down on the bed.
Removing their clothes, the elf and healer began to satisfy Ryan's body. While Olivia kissed his mouth, Rose began to blow him. They both wanted him to go back to sleep after that, so they thought of the best way to relax Ryan.
After fucking the two girls for hours, Ryan's mind stabilized from these thoughts and he was finally able to sleep.
When Ryan's eyes opened the next day, the first thing he noticed was a warmth in his body. Olivia was lying on top of him, sleeping peacefully.
Lifting her head, she looked deep into Ryan's eyes, "Do you want to get up already?" she asked, giving him a gentle smile that warmed his heart. Shaking his head, he confirmed it.
There was an aroma of food throughout the house, as Lyza was preparing breakfast.
"Morning, big boy. That girl, Rin, was looking for you earlier," said the redhead, who was wearing a pink apron as she dealt with the food.
After a delicious breakfast, Ryan got ready and went straight to the moon palace. Now that he had access to the key to the place, he could enter the palace directly through a portal. As soon as he reached the flowery field that led to the palace, the door opened instantly, revealing the entrance through the garden.
"Welcome Master Ryan" Looking from side to side, he was surprised by the sight he saw. Right at the entrance to the castle were two rows of fifty beautiful women dressed in maid's clothes. But they weren't just maids, Ryan could recognize the face of every one of those women.
The sound of footsteps slowly took over the place, and from the center of the group Kyouko emerged. "I've been expecting you"
Her clothes were different from everyday, she was wearing an extremely elegant Asian ceremonial dress. "I hope you recognized this gift from me. They're yours now, my love!" said Kyouko, extending her arm to point at the two rows of girls.
Turning, she invited him in "We don't have much time, let's get started"
