Enlightened Empire - Chapter 481: New Armies

“We are well aware that the relationship between us is not healthy. Our love is far from perfect. It’s messed up. Just like us.”

– Bing Shi & Mr. Jelly

After a painful separation, Bing Shi gets a once in a lifetime opportunity to get back together with the ‘love of her life’ under one condition. To get one of her wishes granted, she will have to travel to different worlds and finish all the assigned missions from the System HeadQuarters.

In each world, she will encounter the best species of men — men that are many times more influential than the Mr. Jelly from her previous life. Will she be able to resist the alpha men that could make any human fall to their knees?

Bing Shi is not sure if she will be able to finish all the missions, but she will surely stay loyal to her boyfriend until the very end.

No matter what it takes, she will be stronger than the bad things that have happened to her.

She will be stronger than the sadness that threatens to consume her.

She will be stronger than the darkness that tries to pull her down.

And, because of that, she will be able to keep moving forward and find a way to make life work for her......

What’s not to love about my new life after transmigrating into a Pet-centered world?
There are mighty creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. They can either be cuddly companions, helpers in your daily life, daring scouts or strong fighters. Or all of the above. Not bad, huh?

I have a family, but the fact is completely overshadowed by my younger sister. She thoroughly hates my guts, and she makes sure that I know this. Every. Single. Day.
Did I mention that she’s disgustingly talented while I am a bottom feeder? A terribly handsome one at that.

I have free rein to run the family business on my own. A small and quaint Pet Store. It should have been great if not for the fact that the previous owner of this body was born with ZERO affinity to handle Astral Pets…

It wouldn’t be a proper transmigration without a gimmick or a system to pave my road to greatness, don’t you think? I have one, but I don’t know if I would be better off without it…

Darkness is coming, and crisis is everywhere. In this long dark and desperate night, do you want to see a bonfire with warm words? We are that light.

We don’t want to be the little bully who guards one-third of an acre and eats canned food.

We don’t want to drive the harem on a great escape from east to west.

We don’t want to be a bunch of rats guarding rancid cheese in the gutter.

We don’t want to see the panic on your faces and the desperation in your screams.

So we stand up, fight for ourselves, fight for you, fight for humanity!

As long as we are here, the flames of war will never be extinguished.

We light a warm bonfire in the dark night, and watch the dawn with the brilliance of life.

We are the shield of the earth, the patron saint of mankind!

- Description from novelbuddy

It was understood that this was a capitalist country, where the possession of the greatest amount of capital determined to whom the nation effectively belonged.The smile that had been resting on William Sheffield’s face was abruptly erased as his expression turned cold. In a tone laced with determination, it was demanded by him that the police be contacted immediately so that they could crush those who stood in their way. The reasoning behind his words seemed clear: if such actions had been taken before by someone like Rockefeller, then why should it not also be possible for Sheffield?A sense of irony hung in the air as the sentiment was expressed—this was America, where each day seemed to unfold as though it were part of an ongoing shootout, with battles fought not just with guns but with power, influence, and wealth.
