Unlimited Ambition

“Mai-chan invited me over, saying she had some delicious food for me to try,” Yuko replied. She then complained, “I don’t know why, why hasn’t Mai-chan arrived yet?”

After that, Yuko and I chatted idly. This silly girl, Yuko, did have her adorable side. Her cheerful and generous manner was just like Mikoto's. Moreover, she was less proud than Mikoto and more silly, making you want to tease her a little.

And so, Yuko and I chatted happily. Yuko's feelings for me increased dramatically. In terms of dating sims, we were probably more than friends but not quite lovers.

Almost there. Once we've gathered all the necessary time, we should be able to complete the game.

As I was thinking this, I suddenly noticed Yuko staring speechlessly at the other side, so I followed her gaze and saw a knight wearing full plate armor, a bucket helmet, and carrying an emblem shield.

Indeed... it's quite surprising to see medieval knights in a place like this.

"Trick or treat!" At that moment, the knight uttered these earth-shattering words.

"Ma, Mai-chan?!" Yuko exclaimed in shock.

Similarly, I also feel a bit of a headache.

This guy really is something else; he always does things that are completely unexpected.

I rubbed my forehead, thinking to myself. At the same time, I couldn't help but mutter, "Halloween? Isn't that next week?"

But Yuko ignored it all and whispered, "I'll risk it all for the treat!" Then she pulled out a pair of funny glasses with a big nose and mustache from her bag: "Trick or treat."

……

"Sorry, you two have fun, I'm leaving now."

"Eh?! Wright-sensei?!" Yuko seemed to regret it a bit, realizing she'd gone a little too far. She tried to pull me back but couldn't. She just watched helplessly as I left.

"What a tragedy. I hope Yuko won't get killed by the long-haired girl—" I suddenly thought of this possibility—and then I thought, "No! I have to save her!" I turned around—and then stood there frozen.

Her skin was as white as the moon, her long, elegant silver hair was incomparably beautiful. Although she had some new armor plates on her body and her face looked somewhat haggard, I still recognized her—this was my only wife in this world. Eucliwood Seraphim.

"Yu..." I was filled with emotion and took a step forward, wanting to take her hand. But Yu, like a startled deer, opened her mouth and let out a silent scream, then turned around and tried to run away.

"Don't do this! Yu!" I caught up and grabbed Yu's hand. "Don't leave me again!"

You remained silent, only shaking her head, with tears faintly visible in the corners of her eyes.

"I forgive you, really, I'm not angry at all. Please don't do this, can we make up? Just the two of us." I spoke so fast that You didn't have time to react.

"You...forgive me?" With trembling hands, You pulled out a small notebook and wrote this in it.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" I asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing my question, tears finally streamed down You's face. She wrote them down on a note, which was almost completely soaked with tears.

“Because of my words, I hurt you, Wright… I almost killed you, Wright. My power only brings disaster, so I have decided that I will never speak again.”

"How could that be?! That's not your fault at all!" I yelled, and Yu finally broke down in tears, then hugged me tightly. Her embrace was so tight, as if I would disappear if she let go.

"Okay, let's make up," I said.

You nodded vigorously.

Just now, our unusual attire and handsome appearance had already attracted a lot of attention. When I shouted, a crowd had already gathered around us. As the onlookers watched us embrace, seemingly making up, they spontaneously applauded and cheered, and the sound of camera shutters clicking could be faintly heard.

"Holy crap."

I cursed under my breath, then, with a thought, I flicked my finger and slightly damaged all the electronic devices in the hands of the onlookers. Of course, the effect wasn't immediate; it would only become apparent after a while.

"Thank you everyone, we can handle things ourselves from now on. Goodbye, goodbye." I said this as I pulled You through the crowd. I also silenced a few clueless guys who tried to take advantage of You by pressing their pressure points and perineum. Then we hailed a taxi and got in.

After that, the crowd gradually dispersed. Only a few thugs remained, speechless and with tears streaming down their faces.

"...Hey sir, we seem to have met before." I said, looking at the taxi driver who seemed familiar.

"Hahaha, even if you say that, I won't give you a discount, kid—by the way, you've changed girlfriends again."

Sure enough, it was that same old rascal from last time. I rolled my eyes: "I already told you, those guys from last time were my students."

"So this one is a student too?" the uncle joked.

"...This really is my wife."

"It doesn't matter if she's not your wife. Tell me, where are you going?"

"...Love Hotel".

"Hahaha... Sit tight, buddy, I'll get you there as fast as I can." Immediately afterward, the uncle stepped on the gas and drove straight into the car—almost hitting the traffic policeman next to him and causing him serious injury.

"I was just saying! Don't take it seriously!" I quickly shouted when I saw this. "A regular hotel will be fine!"

"Don't talk! The police cars are here!" The middle-aged man, as if on morphine, was beaming with excitement. He said, "I've been driving on this road for thirty years. I used to be known as the 'King of Akina'!"

Hey!

Fifteen minutes later, I helped You, who was almost throwing up, out of the car. Then I tossed two 10,000-yuan bills to the uncle who was being handcuffed, and rolled my eyes: "The extra money is your bail money—hopefully it'll be enough!"

"Hey kid! Have fun!" the middle-aged man said nonchalantly as he was dragged away by the police.

"What kind of people are these?" I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Then I helped You inside and booked a double room. Afterwards, we took the elevator under the knowing, suggestive gaze of the hotel staff.

Another half hour later, You, lying on the bed, finally woke up from her intense dizziness. She then looked at me, her face flushed.

"..." She opened her mouth, but didn't say anything, just quietly leaned on my shoulder, enjoying this rare moment of peace and quiet between the two of us.

"That's wonderful. I wish it could stay like this forever," I sighed softly and said.

Yu looked at me with a strange expression.

My goal is the fragment of my soul that Yu possesses. Although if I simply asked, given Yu's personality, she would most likely give it to me. But that would be rather tasteless. Besides, Yu is probably still hesitant. After all, she doesn't want me to continue indiscriminately killing innocents after regaining my strength.

So, I'll put on a little show. I thought to myself, and then I said, "This time I came to find you not only to make up, but also for something else—I'm leaving. Not back to Hell, not to Biliye, not even to the Underworld."

Yu wrote another note: "Where exactly are we going?"

“Go to another dimension,” I replied.

"Are you going to find a way to reverse time?" Yu replied.

"Yes."

Is it absolutely necessary to go?

"I have to go."

"So...when will you be back?"

"do not know."

Is there any danger?

"meeting."

You sighed almost imperceptibly. Then, with a gentle wave of her hands, a box inlaid with various magical crystals appeared in her palm: "This contains all the fragments of your soul that I could collect. I'm returning it to you now. I hope it will be of some help to you."

I pretended to be very surprised: "You helped me collect them? That's a huge help." Then I took the box and stroked it lovingly.

Yu shook her head, looking quite disappointed.

“No, I’ve changed my mind,” I suddenly said to Yu.

"Changed your mind? Not leaving?"

“No, it’s a promise I made that I will definitely come back.” I said, then hugged Yu: “Because you’re here.”

Chapter Nineteen: Departure

After that, Yu and I enjoyed a long-awaited night of marital intimacy. Having been deprived of lovemaking for so long, Yu displayed incredible stamina in bed. The price, however, was that she almost couldn't get out of bed the next day, and a hotel bill that was double the usual price.

But none of that matters. As long as I'm happy, money is just an external thing.

And so, Yu and I boarded the tram back.

But speaking of which, how is Yuko doing? Was she really played to death?

Rewind to a day earlier, Yuko, wearing those comical glasses, was dragged away by long-haired girls to go door-to-door asking for candy. She was turned away at the very first house.

"...Isn't Halloween next week?" the hostess asked curiously.

Yuko: "..."

Barley

After returning home, apart from Ariel being slightly disappointed, the others were already used to me bringing girls home every now and then. After a simple lunch, I went to Ariel and told her that I was leaving as well.

“I’m waiting for you,” Ariel said, then added as if that wasn’t enough, “I’ll also keep an eye on Kyoko and Haruna for you. Don’t worry, they won’t benefit anyone else.”

"...They really are reliable." That's all I can say about them.

As for Mina, it was much simpler. Although it was a bit of a disappointment, I still had a good impression of this pure and kind girl. If I had more time, I might have been able to win her over in another month or two.

So I told her that I was going to a very, very far place and might not be back for a very, very long time. Then I asked her if she would be willing to wait for me to come back so we could discuss something important that concerns our lifelong happiness.

Speaking of which, Nana is a girl, and girls are always much more sensitive to love than the opposite sex. Nana instinctively understood what I said, and then she felt a bit overloaded, with thick smoke billowing from her head—but she still insisted on agreeing to me before fainting.

Kyoko harbored considerable resentment towards my departure, but I wasn't quite sure whether her resentment stemmed more from me or from the prospect of not being able to enjoy the benefits of the blood sacrifice. Haruna, on the other hand, seemed quite philosophical, simply saying "Take care" before joining Ariel to play video games. This, however, left me with a slight sense of unease.

As for Serafim, it's even easier. Just say it like you're a bird released from its cage: "You're free. Go wherever you want." And that's it.

"Huh?" Sera was quite puzzled. To be honest, she had been doing quite well during this time. She had long since given up on the idea of ​​running away. She never expected me to say something like that now.

"Are you mocking me?" Sera said angrily.

“This isn’t teasing.” After I finished speaking, I took her by surprise and kissed her lips, then immediately pulled away: “This is teasing.”

"You?!" Sera's face flushed red, then she covered her face and ran away in tears. I vaguely heard her say, "Wright Baldwin, you bastard! I'll haunt you even in death!"

And so, I'd won over the vast majority of the girls, except for that brat who was a little on my mind. She seemed rather wistful, like a historian reminiscing about the rise and fall of dynasties and kingdoms.

So, on that day, I found a time when no one was around and asked her a few questions.

Seeing my slight curiosity, the brat said nothing and first poured me a cup of tea. As I drank it, I wondered, when did this guy become so sensible?

"Do you know my name?" the brat asked.

...To be honest, when I'm in a good mood I call you Doctor, and when I'm in a bad mood I call you brat. I really don't know your name.

"I have no name," she said, seeing that I didn't reply.

"To be precise, I haven't had a name yet."

"What do you mean?" I was a little puzzled and curious. This brat usually acts so carefree. What's wrong with her now? She's a scientist, why is she acting like a philosopher?

"My father was a high school teacher back then. He had just graduated from university, was young and promising, and handsome, so he naturally attracted a lot of attention from the girls at school. In the end, he really did choose one of his students, who is my mother, and they got married."
