My Substitute CEO Bride

In the Land of Nion, King and the president of the Illuminion as well as Queen were currently present inside a grand mansion.

King yawned and then lazily said, "Why go to such lengths? You've dispersed your subordinates, so what's the point?"

"King, let's not be in a rush. Hear me out," the president replied politely. "It isn't my true purpose to just scatter them. Right now, we have people in other countries. As long as we continue with our previous plan, the whole world will be ours." Hearing this, King roared with laughter. "You're always so farsighted. So, what should we do next?"

The hall of the swordsman association was stained with blood. Alfius was holding onto his master as he cried bitterly. "Master! What happened? Who did this to you all?"

On a hillside in Yerusia, there were four tombstones next to a tree. Sven and Torah were in the midst of paying their respects.

"What's your plan now?" Sven asked Torah.

"Who knows? I might travel a bit. You? The people of this country know your deeds now. What will you do?"

"Val modified their memories at the last moment. I don't know how to repay the price he paid. Although everyone sees me as a hero now, I don't intend to be king."

"Why? Isn't leading the people to a better future your wish?"

At the Melton residence, Deluca excitedly ran up to Zaafea and said, "Master, look! I can manipulate true energy now... Master?"

Noticing Zaafea's lack of response, Deluca nudged him, which startled Zaafea out of his stupor.

"Ah! Who are you?" Zaafea asked, holding his head. A few others had also rushed over upon hearing the commotion.

"W-Who are you?" Zaafea asked again inexplicably.

"I'm your disciple, Deluca. Master, what's wrong with you today?" Deluca asked innocently.

"Disciple? Master?" Zaafea looked around in terror again before his gaze settled on Shane's face.

Shane was looking back in disbelief, aware of the reason for Zaafea's unusual behavior.
