My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1990

"What about now?" Nash asked tentatively.

Zaafea responded, "Reaching the Divine Sojourn Realm is limited by the body. Do you think there's a way to achieve an out-of-body experience, allowing oneself to travel swiftly and unnoticed?" "Are you two speaking in riddles?" Ryan asked.

"Nothing much. Commander Calcraft, I'm tired, so I'll take a nap first." Zaafea lay down on the couch. Nash sat beside him, closing his eyes momentarily before opening them again.

"Nash, what were you and Zaafea talking about? I couldn't follow," Ryan said.

Nonetheless, Nash did not respond even after a long while.

Ryan ran up to Nash and waved his hand in front of his face. "Nash? Nash?"

After a long silence, Nash finally responded, "Ryan, it's really nothing. Zaafea just wants us to stay vigilant. The people from the Illuminion are definitely not easy to deal with."

"Of course not. By the way, why does Zaafea sleep so much? When he arrived earlier, he napped for quite a while. Does he stay up all night?"

Nash replied, shaking his head, "I'm not sure. Anyway, it's nothing serious. Oh, Ryan, it seems your turn is coming up!"

"Oh, right! I'll go get ready." Ryan picked up his god-slaying sword and began warming up. Lana gave Nash a mischievous look, and Nash smiled back while nodding. Deluca also ran to Nash's side and sat down obediently.

In the luxurious viewing box nearby, Sycamore leisurely sipped tea. Opposite him sat a gentleman in a suit and a top hat.

"You've been working hard lately," the gentleman remarked.

Sycamore took another sip of tea and replied, "Not really. But you all seem to be causing quite a stir."

"Hahaha, that's with your assistance, of course."

"No. This has nothing to do with me,

young man. We just choose not to interfere in mortal affairs. I've already warned Ruin, and now, need to warn your people too."

"Hahaha, don't worry. Nothing will affect you. We're not foolish enough to let that happen."

"I hope so."

"Of course. As long as you remain impartial, we won't-" The gentleman was abruptly grabbed by the collar by the burly man beside him. "Sir, it's time for you to leave."

"Oh my. Please don't be so rough." The gentleman stood up, removed the burly man's hand from his collar, and straightened his own. "I'm a guest of your God King. Please show some respect."

"You!" The burly man swung a punch at the gentleman's face.

The gentleman drew a cane to retaliate, but Sycamore slightly lifted his scepter. With that, the gentleman back to

was instantly transported to th

his original viewing box.

The burly man quickly tidied the room. "Great Emperor, I apologize."

"It's alright. Don't bother with someone who doesn't understand the rules."

"Yes, you're right. Both our guests today were like this. I hope you can overlook it."

"No harm done, and it's not just the two of them."
