I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 829 - 520: Traveling Above the Clouds

Evening.

Chen Lun sat quietly in the room.

During the day, he had sent his incarnation to meet the two local Saints, just to make acquaintance, so they could contact each other easily in the future if needed.

He was relieved to find that both Farik and Suraya were not of the radical sort. They preferred tranquility and had their own pursuits.

Perhaps that was why they were willing to sit in Cold Leaf City of Lin State.

Chen Lun was quite satisfied with this situation.

At this moment, he needed peaceful times to settle down and to put some strength-enhancing ideas into practice after his recent promotion.

’Now that [Jester] has reached level 40, it’s not far until the max level of 60. I should also start considering the Mythological Knowledge of [Thespian]...’

Chen Lun mused, planning ahead.

’It’s a pity that after Philip Howard’s death, I lost the source of my pathway knowledge...’

He sighed inwardly in frustration.

But soon, he thought of Oscar.

’As the Angel of Destiny, Your Majesty Oscar must possess the corresponding Mythological Knowledge... Maybe if I agree to his requests and choose to take on Ring Duke’s unfinished wishes and great cause, I could get everything I want.’

Chen Lun fell into contemplation.

He did not fear the so-called gods.

Ever since his transmigration, he had experienced countless life-and-death crises, overcoming numerous obstacles, ultimately achieving an extraordinary transformation, and ascending to a mythical existence.

He then defeated Philip Howard in the battle of fate, gaining control of his own destiny...

It was impossible not to harbor a sliver of the aspiration to become a god.

But Chen Lun had his reservations.

Among the Seven Gods, the Moon Goddess bore him no ill will. She had once given him advice and bestowed blessings upon him... Moreover, he suspected that this Moon Goddess had some kind of connection with Floey, maybe bloodline, maybe something else, making her essentially an "ally."

Then there was Mr. Jing Yao. From the information gathered, it seemed this True Magic God belonged to the Ring Duke’s camp, and Mrs. Fleurette had once followed him.

If he truly wanted to inherit Ring Duke’s wishes and great cause, slaying the Seven Gods, these two would ultimately become his enemies as well.

Chen Lun suddenly felt heavy-hearted.

’Wait... The Seven Gods Your Majesty Oscar mentioned might not be the seven worshipped by the Seven Gods Church; they might be the seven rival gods from the Ring Duke’s era.’

Soon he frowned deeply.

’But even if that’s the case, the Moon Goddess is still an inevitable hurdle.’

Amidst Chen Lun’s troubled thoughts, the door was gently knocked.

Knock, knock...

With just a glance, he knew who was outside the door.

After taking a deep breath, Chen Lun stood up to open the door.

"Dinner’s ready. Are you coming down to eat?"

Floey said with a smile.

In her light purple eyes, the man’s upright figure was reflected.

Floey knew very well that after his promotion, he no longer needed to eat like ordinary humans, yet they both maintained this interaction with a tacit understanding.

Perhaps to Floey, nothing felt more ceremonial than having her beloved enjoy the meal she’d personally cooked.

And Chen Lun also enjoyed this process.

Especially seeing Floey’s subtle gaze anticipating his compliment after each meal, followed by a serene smile upon receiving his praise.

These moments gave his soul brief solace and tranquility.

Love is the most expensive anchor point...

Mr. Bales’ words still echoed in Chen Lun’s heart. He deeply approved and faithfully adhered to this creed.

"Of course, I’m really looking forward to tonight’s dinner, Floey... This can be considered our first official meal after moving to the new place."

Chen Lun said with a smile, walking out of the room.

Floey responded with a soft hum, took his arm, and together they went downstairs to the dining room.

At the table, the circus members and Golden Cup councilors, including Frey Akebin, were all present. To celebrate the new Chapter in their lives, Chen Lun, as the leader and governing officer, raised his glass to everyone.

This time, his subordinates were surprised to notice that Mr. Jack’s glass contained wine instead of milk.

This showed his seriousness.

"To Mr. Jack!"

Noah was the first to respond, toasting with a shy smile of joy on his face.

"To the leader!"

"And to the Circus and the Generous Council!"

Everyone raised their glasses with smiles.

"Let’s eat."

Chen Lun sipped his wine, signaling everyone to start the meal.

Only with Mr. Jack’s permission did they begin to enjoy the feast.

Amidst the dinging and clinking of knives and forks, Chen Lun took the opportunity to praise Maggie and Golov, acknowledging their work today.

"Thank you, Mr. Jack. But this task might take some time. Whether it’s the ’spore’ I planted or the entire ritual process, we need to wait patiently."

Maggie, maintaining her clean and tidy look from the day, blushed lightly after drinking the wine and said.

Everyone turned frequently to glance at her, amazed by her different appearance today. They wondered how long this "nun look" would last...

"I trust you can succeed; time is not an issue."

Chen Lun chuckled lightly.

Golov did not say much. He simply picked up the wine bottle and refilled Miss Maggie’s empty glass. Maggie felt quite delighted and patted his shoulder, appreciating his tact.
