After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 148 - 39 God of War_2

With the scenery changing in the blink of an eye, Xi Mu appeared in front of a luxurious mansion, Sharon by his side also withdrew her hand.

"Lord Ahtal, this is your residence," Sharon calmly explained to Xi Mu, "Your female companion is also here now."

"Thank you, you should go and rest too," Xi Mu smiled, yet noticed Sharon hesitating slightly, then explaining to him.

"Lord Ahtal, I need to stay by your side."

Xi Mu asked, "Why?"

"To ensure your personal safety," Sharon earnestly explained, possessing the ability to teleport, she could whisk Ahtal away from danger should he encounter any.

"No need," Xi Mu waved his hand, rejecting Sharon’s close protection, "I can protect myself."

Sharon frowned, but seeing Ahtal’s serious expression, she did not insist, only asking one more question.

"Why do you not want my protection?"

"With you by my side, I can’t concentrate on thinking," Xi Mu said expressionlessly, then turned and entered the mansion.

With Sharon, this woman by his side, it was inconvenient for him to execute his plans, and Sharon’s unpredictable high-speed movement ability, coupled with the lethal strikes of the Prayer of Death that came with it, was troublesome.

Meanwhile, Sharon stood still, watching Ahtal’s retreating figure with a puzzled expression, seemingly unable to understand Ahtal’s words.

After pondering briefly, she teleported away from the spot.

Moments later.

The bishop’s office.

"Hahaha... unable to concentrate on thinking!" Bishop Karen burst into laughter, his hand holding the coffee trembling non-stop.

He was almost in tears.

"After all, Sharon, you are also a very charming woman. Staying by Lord Ahtal’s side, it’s indeed hard for one to concentrate on thinking."

"I don’t find this funny," Sharon frowned displeased, giving the jubilant Bishop Karen a cold look, "The Church of Death could strike at Lord Ahtal at any moment."

"Do not worry about Ahtal’s safety," Bishop Karen waved his hand, his expression becoming serious, "Even if something happens to all of us, with that person by Ahtal’s side, it is impossible for any accidents to occur."

He took a sip of coffee, sighing.

"Ahtal truly does attract powerful women."

"..."

Sharon showed a puzzled expression, and seeing this, Bishop Karen waved his hand, not wanting to go deeper into the explanation.

About the companion who stays by Ahtal’s side, being the All-Knowing Saintess, it was something he did not wish to reveal.

After all, it seemed that the All-Knowing Saintess also did not intend to reveal her identity.

"Understood," Sharon turned and disappeared on the spot, since Lord Ahtal said he did not need protection, and Bishop Karen had no objections either.

She would not insist on protecting Ahtal,

Meanwhile.

In the mansion. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

A pale-haired girl lay on the table, her whole demeanor lazy, and she occasionally yawned, complaining:

"Why didn’t Ahtal take me to battle this time?"

"Probably to keep you company?" Eden chuckled softly, pouring a cup of hot tea, placing it in front of the pale-haired girl.

At these words, the pale-haired girl’s cheeks puffed slightly, she twirled the teacup in front of her, muttering:

"Doesn’t feel like that’s the reason."

Eden smiled, then changed the subject, asking, "Miss Sleipnir, it seems you are very reluctant to transform into human form in front of Ahtal?"

"No way," the pale-haired girl muttered, "Transforming into human form in front of Ahtal is too dangerous for me."

"Dangerous?" Eden showed a puzzled look, but just as she was about to ask further, footsteps echoed from the corridor not far away.

The pale-haired girl got such a fright that she immediately transformed into an eight-legged horse, crouching in front of the tea table.

Xi Mu pushed the door open and walked in, looking at the eight-legged horse and Eden, then he turned his gaze to the steaming cup of tea and smiled,

"Miss Eden, did you expect my return?" He came over to the table, sat down, and took a sip of tea.

Eden glanced at the young mare and then smiled, "I heard Mr. Ahtal’s footsteps, so I brewed a cup of tea especially for you."

"Is that so?" Xi Mu nodded slightly, finished the tea in his cup, and then invited Eden, "It’s rare to be in the Black Rose Kingdom, would you like to go for a stroll together?"

"Does Mr. Ahtal have any spare time?" Eden asked calmly, as Ahtal should have been concentrating on dealing with the Church of Death at the moment.

Regarding this, Xi Mu explained,

"Perhaps this trip might bring unexpected gains."

"Unexpected gains?" Eden nodded, then stood up smoothing her skirt, and agreed to go out with Ahtal.

Seeing this, Xi Mu smiled and then raised his hand to touch the young mare’s head beside him, expressing regret, "If only you could transform into a human form and walk the streets with us."

The young mare rolled her eyes and willingly went back into Ahtal’s ring; she did not want to transform into a human in front of Ahtal.

She remembered a peer of hers had once fallen in love with a human and then because of lifespan issues... wait, Ahtal, who had acquired Dragon Magic, apparently didn’t need to worry about lifespan anymore.

Once Ahtal has killed Siegfried and eaten Siegfried’s heart, he could transform into a dragon.

Her thoughts were somewhat disturbed at this moment.

...

...

On the street.

Xi Mu and Eden walked side by side, attracting many passersby’s attention, yet no one approached to disturb them.

"The God of Omniscience must have disappeared, right?" Xi Mu initiated the conversation with Eden, "It’s hard to imagine just how bad the world would be without the existence of the God of Omniscience."

Eden fell silent for a moment and then said, "Even without the God of Omniscience, there are the Goddess of Life and witches."

Her voice was extremely calm.

"There are many who can make this world a better place."

"Miss Eden... are you truly a follower of the God of Omniscience?" Xi Mu asked, seeming unsure.

In this world, even those who are not followers of the God of Omniscience feel that the God of Omniscience is essential.

After all, the God of Omniscience is the creator of this world.

"I guess I am a follower of the God of Omniscience." Eden smiled, lowering her eyelids, "Mr. Ahtal, if one day you find out that the God of Omniscience is actually the most evil entity in this world..."

"I will pretend I didn’t hear that." Xi Mu waved his hand, cutting off what Eden was about to say, showing some resistance to her words.

It obviously wasn’t due to any devout belief in the God of Omniscience, but rather because Eden would typically twist her statement to claim she was joking.

Unless he could win enough favor from Eden, she would voluntarily reveal information about the God of Omniscience.

"Mr. Ahtal, this is just a hypothesis." Eden smiled gently, not delving deeper into the conversation.

She also knew what she suggested is extremely difficult to accept; who could imagine that the God of Omniscience is the greatest evil?

"If your hypothesis is true, I will go and challenge God of Omniscience." Xi Mu said it as if jokingly, causing Eden to show a surprised expression.

He waved his hand, laughing,

"Hypothesis, just a hypothesis."

"Ha... that’s quite a bold assumption." A hearty laugh came from behind him, followed by a solid arm draped over Xi Mu’s shoulder.

Turning his head, he saw a man with his upper body bare, face painted with red lines, laughing heartily at him.

"Talking about how to challenge the God of Omniscience... Hmm, this is to my liking." He said with a bright smile, "I’ve long wanted to fight with the God of Omniscience."

God of War.

Xi Mu’s eyes narrowed slightly, recognizing the over-familiar man, known as the strongest God of War.

In terms of sheer strength, the God of War is an unrivaled being.
