You think you're worthy of saving the world?

The divine slime called Demon King grew rapidly, like a tree branch under a camera lens magnified ten thousand times, its shape resembling a forked black lightning bolt.

"Ugh... Ah...!"

The black branch passed unimpeded through the lich's defensive barrier, piercing its body.

Leoric hung suspended in mid-air, struggling incessantly. It couldn't understand why, despite being far superior to the hero, it couldn't even move.

The power it stole from Celestia was completely dominated by its other self (the Verdant King).

"Wait...wait...no...I still..."

Then, amidst the lich's terrified expression, Yuri slowly opened his five fingers.

"—Become a sacrifice to the Demon King."

With the boy's whisper, the lich's body was instantly pulled in five directions, as if torn to shreds by five sharp blades.

The golden cube that appeared in mid-air was the divine core that Celestia had been taken from her.

……

The singularity is closing.

Since Celestia was killed by the lich, the dungeon tiers and completion requirements have changed.

The lich Leoric replaced the Demon King as the Great Demon King, and therefore, after defeating him, Yuri and the others achieved victory together.

As Celeste destroyed the lich coffin and everyone waited to return to the real world, Rosalia appeared behind him with a solemn expression.

"Aren't you going to explain what happened just now, Yuri?" The Grand Duchess stared at Yuri's wrist, frowning as she spoke.

Yuri composed himself and gave a hearty smile: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this thing just looks like Alien."

I will never let you get pregnant with some weird cosmic monster. If you're still worried, then from now on, ○ will be outside...

"...Yuri!"

Rosalia's face darkened when she saw him still joking around as if he didn't care.

"For me, the most important thing is being able to protect my current life..."

Yuri said earnestly, "I will not give up any power, no matter what it is, as long as I can become stronger."

"Is it……"

Rosalia rolled her eyes: "Then you should work hard for us."

After saying that, she pulled Yuri into her arms: "Don't move."

In a few minutes, Yuri will revert to his boy form, so he can enjoy himself while he still has some time left.

Rosalia stroked the young body of the prophesied child with delight.

"Ah... Rosa is secretly making out with Lord Yuri! I want to too!"

The Elf Queen also joined the ranks of those who toyed with the boys' bodies.

183 The Duchess and the Queen's Dual Service

[Singularity: Warrior Quest complete, starting to generate results...]

[Singularity: Warrior Quest is affected by unforeseen circumstances, its difficulty has increased from "Fifth Order" to "Eighth Order", and the results have been regenerated...]

[Evaluation is being processed.]

What a night of disasters...

Yuri, still lost in thought, let out a long breath.

I thought it would just be a simple dungeon run, but it turned out to be such a big mess.

In this light, the Dragon Island dungeon from last time was much easier.

It must be because of that...

They have been targeted by the evil gods, and even if it's just the simplest singularity, they must be extra careful from now on.

Having gained power from the evil gods also means double the risks... you might get caught up in their schemes.

Although the incident was fortunately resolved this time, the "King of Verdant Greens" doesn't seem to intend to give up so easily.

Is Celestia completely unaware that she has been targeted by the hand of the evil god?

No... she didn't need to take the evil god seriously in the first place.

If it weren't for her own actions, Celestia wouldn't have been killed by those small fry.

The evil god's hand, unable to easily interfere with the mortal realm, cannot threaten the demigods of this world no matter how much it manipulates fate...

It was I who gave Celestia an opportunity to take advantage of me.

Hmm... I'll have to give her a good talking-to later.

As Yuri pondered quietly, the voice in his mind began to report the results of the copy.

Time Score: S

Achievement Score: S

[Exploration Score: S+]

Strategy Score: S+

Overall Rating: S+

"Oh...not bad, another S+ rating this time. Looks like advancing to the fifth rank shouldn't be a problem."

[Achieve the following achievements:]

[The true hero: Completes the Singularity.]

[Leveling Maniac: Players whose game level exceeded Lv.80 upon completing a Singularity.]

[Silence is golden: You're a master of silence, already a superb RPG protagonist.]

[The Princess's Guardian: With the "Hero's Blessing"... Virgin clear.]

"what……?"

No? So it's possible for a hero to clear dungeons while having a shameless time with a princess?

Yuri instantly felt like he had lost billions.

……

……

[The Demon King's Castle: Successfully arrived at the Demon King's Castle.]

[I want to fight 10: Defeat the Four Heavenly Kings and Seven Demon Generals of the Demon King's Army.]

[Roads? The place we're going doesn't need roads! : Let's take a time trip.]

[Perfectionist: Start a second playthrough and complete the game.]

[Clearance Reward: Gain 100% Rank Experience.]

As Yuri had expected, he gained a full experience bar.

Starting from the fifth rank, a character's rank can only be advanced by completing trials.

Each advancement to a higher rank means that no matter how many higher-ranked challenges you face, even if you clear a ten-star singularity at rank five—

The maximum experience points that can be gained can reach 100%, allowing the user to advance one rank.

Euryphus Falsion's personal rank has been upgraded: Fourth Rank → Fifth Rank

This is not the first time Yuri has been promoted in rank.

He began to adapt to the strange sensations that arose within his body with each promotion in rank.

As if a warm stream of water had flowed into his body, Yuri's shoulders trembled, and he arched his back comfortably.

Immediately afterwards, the dungeon began to reward players.

[Clearance Reward: Obtain the unique skill "Sword Saint (Lv.1)".]

[Sword Saint: An advanced skill of "Swordsmanship".]

Having experienced countless battles, you have gained a new understanding of combat, and your swordsmanship has begun to reach a state of perfection.

……

[Clearance Reward: The inherent skill "Savior's Healing" level increases from Lv.1 to Lv.2.]

The success rate of "Saviour's Healing" has now risen to 80%.

[Clearance Rewards: The unique skill "Verdant Kiss" has been changed.]

"Something has changed...?"

Yuri frowned in confusion.

Opening the skill list, I found that the original "Verdant Kiss" had disappeared.

Instead, a new skill is introduced, just like when "Swordsmanship (Lv.5)" becomes "Sword Saint (Lv.1)".

As for the name of this new skill...

"Verdant Favor (Lv.1)"

"...Sister, please spare me."

Yuri gasped.

【Verdant Favor】

[A powerful blessing bestowed by the Elf Demon King upon his beloved.]

[Fate Power greatly increased (Lv.Max).]

At night, gain bonus attack speed and movement speed, and increase the success rate of stealth, theft, lockpicking, and shadow hiding.

[Obtained the artifact: Demon King's Blood.]
