(MC POV)

How interesting…

Very, very interesting…

I'm watching the girls sending Cain infatuated gazes and acting like maidens experiencing love for the first time.

Oh, of course I already know what was going on, I had omniscience show me everything the moment he appeared. To think he still has a huge crush on Iris even now, I don't know what to say to that.

When I asked Iris what she thought of him, the only thing she said was "Who?"

And yes, she's in her 'The End' mode for that question so she really didn't know who he was all this while. Or rather, she showed no recognition of the name 'Cain'.

I'm not sure if I should pity him just for that.

Then again, he is messing with my disciples purely out of spite for me so I'd settle for pity. He's not even interested in any of the girls, he's just doing it to annoy me.

Speaking of which, there's a reason why I'm even letting him get away with this of course, otherwise I would have just wiped him from existence the moment he tried to mess with them, my child or not.

It's not like I have any special feelings for these 'children' of mine and I can say for certain that the past me most definitely did not care about them any more than Iris did.

Still, I am quite surprised to learn that he had obtained this skill of his just so that he can try and steal Iris away.

Trust me, my dude, you can't handle her.

You think you have the capability of handling a woman who has the power to End the entirety of existence? Please, you can't even handle your own ego.

"I don't know Master, but I feel a little sad for them," Akari muttered from my shoulder.

"Agreed. It would definitely be horrible for them to know their devotion to you is being used, Divine One. I can guess they will be incredibly upset after this is over," Shiori added.

I sighed, "I know. I am prepared to receive their grievances but the pros outweigh the cons for this. Anyway, I already prepared something nice for him too."

"Master is being devious again…" Xun Guan commented dryly.

Just as I was about to deny that claim, the sound of footsteps caught my attention and I turned to see Eris running towards me in a hurry.

Odd, I thought she would also be influenced by Cain's powers but I could see that she was currently her normal self. Did he release his control over Eris for some reason?

Oh wait… No way… Could it be? Eris has multiple personalities and he can only affect one of them?

That's really interesting… That begs the question of which personality did he affect though?

I waited for Eris to jog up to me, the girl pausing as she regained her breath.

"Mas… Master… Lian… Lian Li… She's hurt…" She gasped.

I was on my feet in an instant, my hand reaching out to grab Eris by her shoulder before using omniscience to find out where she was.

I only managed to hear Eris squeak out an "Eh?" before I teleported all of us to where my disciple was, which happened to be behind some bushes and out of sight of everyone else.

Immediately, I rushed to her side, preparing to heal her or, if necessary, alter reality to make sure she was fine. I couldn't believe that just because omniscience had not shown any of my disciples being hurt because of Cain, I had let my guard down like this.

"Lian Li! What happened?! What's wrong?!" I cried, looking over her frantically to see if she was injured in any way.

Lian Li seemed surprised by my sudden appearance but adapted quickly, laying herself down on her back on top of the suspiciously large beach towel.

"Ow… Master… It hurts…"

I altered reality to heal her of all ailments, even removing Cain's influence on her for fear that she was affected by it somehow.

Lian Li continued to groan in pain, causing me to panic slightly as I was reminded of the time Iris had planted those fake personas of my disciples inside my dream world. I had to watch them perish from old age without being able to heal them at all.

"Where?! Where does it hurt?!" I asked, feeling a little hysterical.

Lian Li then spread her legs and moved her hand right above her navel, "Right here, Master…"

At first I didn't get it and was considering turning back time to heal her until I saw the coy look in her eyes.

Right… If I thought about it calmly, of course there was no way she would be hurt without triggering any of my defensive inscriptions.

Even if Cain had tried to manipulate her and attempted to push her down, he would have been blasted away immediately. I had even placed an additional protection that would immediately dispel his influence if the girls were driven to do something they would later regret with him.

Thus, there was no way Lian Li could have gotten hurt at all.

I sighed a little in relief that she was completely fine.

Naturally I can't scold them for worrying me like that since I'm also making them go through Cain's manipulation, I'm not that big of a hypocrite ok?

I also noticed that Akari and Shiori had gracefully leapt off my shoulders earlier, both of them escaping the scene to allow us some privacy.

"Master…" Lian Li purred, her hand moving lower to rest just at the edge of her bikini. "It hurts right here… I think I need Master's injection to heal the pain…"

I wonder who taught her to talk dirty like that? I could tell it was something she wasn't used to with how much she was blushing up to her ears. I'm guessing Eris, or most likely Bait, was the one who taught her that judging by the smug look on her face.

The swordswoman joined in by pressing her chest against my back, "Oh Master… Sister Lian Li is sick… Master should get your holy rod out and give Lian Li her medicine~"

I should have known this was their goal from the start.

That still begs the question of how Lian Li wasn't affected by Cain's power though? Last I checked, even my golden girl was affected by it.

Oh? Perhaps the other personalities of Eris realised what was going on which prompted both her and Lian Li to go confront Cain about it? And then that little brat thought it was more interesting to see them struggle uselessly so he released them for now so that he can make them experience the pain of knowing they were powerless against him?

Then Lian Li and Eris decided to take advantage of the fact that everyone else was affected by Cain to get a head start to have sex with me?

Yeah, that sounds like what could have happened.

I felt a hand pressing against my chest and I looked down to see Lian Li looking up at me, her eyes silently asking me to ravage her.

Oh well, I suppose I was expecting something like this to happen so I'll just indulge them right now…

Putting up a silencing and invisibility inscription, I moved closer to Lian Li, both our lips parting at the same time as our lips sought each other…
