Cheat Awakening

"This is... my hometown... Finally, nearly ten years later, I've returned..."

Stepping through the portal, Amy gazed upon the familiar World Tree and the surrounding landscape especially a certain suspicious crater, tears welling up in her eyes. She still couldn't believe she was able to return to her home after such a long time. In recent times, she had almost given up hope of coming back here.

"Over there," She pointed towards an open space in front of the World Tree trunk. "That was where I lived… once." Now, only grass and wildflowers grew on the blackened earth, a stark reminder of the magnificent town that once stood there, a testament to a thousand years of culture and history, now reduced to dust.

I wonder what sort of imagery is shown in her eyes right now. Is it the figure of her beautiful hometown as it used to be... or is it this miserable ruin, turned to dust? She must be very emotional, right? Maybe it's time to give her a shoulder and become her spiritual support.

After all, it's our responsibility to revive the elf race, Myne thought with a serious and determined expression. As for whether Amy might reject his approach and find someone else for the great work of reviving her race? Myne didn't think about it at all.

He didn't believe Amy could find someone more suitable as a partner than him. Even if she did, he wouldn't mind making that person disappear from the world for the greater good. How could he let someone else eat the fruit he had worked so hard to cultivate?

Unaware of the evil thoughts of a certain pervert behind her, Amy continued, "As promised, I have returned, everyone!"

As if sensing her presence, the World Tree greeted Amy by gently shaking its branches, letting a few magical leaves fall onto her head, making her even more emotional.

"Sob... I'm back... Sob!"

"It's time," Myne murmured. He was about to give Amy a shoulder when he saw Fenrir, who was resting beside him. Her ears twisted suddenly, and she opened her eyes and lifted her head. She first gave him a meaningful glance, obviously warning him not to do anything funny right under her nose, before looking in a certain direction and whispering.

"He's here."

Tsk, thankfully she isn't my mother, otherwise, it would be a miracle if I could find a single girlfriend, let alone have a dream about making a harem, Myne cursed with an unhappy expression as his nonexistent plan failed. He followed her gaze and looked to the northeast but saw nothing. However, suddenly, the ground trembled as if struck by an earthquake. Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

Following the rumbling sound, within the shadow of the World Tree, a gigantic figure could be seen walking toward them.

Although Myne had seen Ymir before when he, along with other divine beasts, was fighting Zarathunathis, that time he clearly wasn't as big as a mountain. His height was around 10 meters or so, wore magnificent golden armour, and held a giant sledgehammer, leaving a profound image in Myne's mind. Unlike now, where he wore casual, full-body black steel armour, like a knight, standing hundreds of meters tall, clearly trying to be cool.

Naturally, seeing the other party's extraordinary height, which he could easily control but still wanted to appear high, Myne couldn't help but shake his head with annoyance. He really couldn't understand why all divine beasts had this weird hobby of appearing in front of others in such large forms as if they wanted others to feel like ants.

"Aren't you quite late? We've been waiting here for the past two hours," Fenrir didn't find it strange that Ymir arrived in such a grand manner. Instead, she cared more about him being two minutes late from the appointed time.

Poor Ymir could only sigh at his big sister's unreasonable scolding. Ignoring her nagging, he turned to look at Amy, who was frightened to death upon seeing Ymir and now rested in Myne's arms.

Myne didn't let go of the golden opportunity to give her his shoulder and raise his favorability.

Feeling Ymir's gaze, Amy's body trembled, but she didn't dare to look away, fearing she might irritate him. So, she could only look back at him and squeeze out a smile uglier than crying.

Ymir stared at Amy's ugly smile for a second when his huge body suddenly emitted a golden light, and two rays of golden light shot out from his eyes, landing on Myne and Amy.

"This... Another blessing? What is going on? Why is everyone nowadays so generous in giving me blessings?" Myne complained, dumbfounded as he felt the familiar sensation of warm, comfortable energy rushing into his body, making him tremble with pleasure.

Divine Protection of The World Tree: Nature Blessings

*Divine Beast's Sacred Protection (Telepathy): Fenrir, Jormungandr, Leviathor Nightstalker, Ymir (NEW) ]

"High Elf girl, do you know who I am?"

As soon as Myne and Amy received Ymir's blessing, his heavy, gruff voice resonated in their minds. Myne was perplexed; he had no idea why the other party had given him his blessing and was now transmitting his thoughts into his mind as well. But it was good for Myne, since, if there was anything he enjoyed apart from sex, it would probably be watching live drama of other people.

"Yes, Lord Ymir, I had the honour to see you once, though I wish I hadn't."

While desperately struggling to keep her body from trembling, Amy quickly sarcastically answered Ymir's question while hugging Myne's arm tightly for support. Her response caught everyone off guard, as no one expected her to use such harsh words despite looking as if she would faint from fright at any moment.

Damn, that was a good one! Myne gave Amy a thumbs up in his mind. He didn't expect this naive and easy-to-bully elf grandma to also have a tough side.

"You…"

Because Amy didn't play the game according to the script, Ymir, who was about to repeat a memorized phrase and was already on his tongue, didn't know what to say. He struggled a bit, wondering how to fool Amy when Fenrir's stern gaze cut through him. He gulped down the nonsense he was about to say to save his almighty image and became honest.

"High Elf Girl," He began, his voice heavy with regret. "Starting ten years ago until today, my rash actions have caused immense suffering to many elves. To those I have wronged, I offer my sincerest apologies. I am truly sorry. Please, if possible, forgive me," Ymir bowed his head slightly, earning a satisfied nod from Fenrir.

However, Myne and Amy were stunned by his actions. It was completely unheard of for a divine beast to apologize to anyone because of their mistakes. It was the same as a random person apologizing to an ant for killing its kind because the other party came under their feet.

F*ck! So Fenrir really is the boss of all divine beasts? Just because of her words, Ymir is actually willing to apologize? If anyone else heard about this, I'm afraid even if they were beaten to death, no one would believe it, Myne exclaimed, dumbfounded. He hurriedly took out a magic ball to capture this once-in-a-lifetime moment, he also didn't forget to take a selfie as well.

He believed that if this picture was used cautiously, it would be more than enough for him to boost his prestige in front of other beautiful big sisters and beautiful ladies for a long, long time.

But because Myne didn't want to get beaten by Ymir, after taking a dozen pictures quickly, he hurriedly put the magic ball back into his inventory. Thankfully, Ymir's body was too big to notice his little move, and it took him time to straighten up again; otherwise, he would surely have noticed someone was capturing his dark history.

"Myne, stop making trouble. Do you want to get beaten?" Although Ymir didn't notice Myne's move, Fenrir, of course, did and quickly reminded him.

"Sorry, I've put it back. This moment is just too precious to let go. Please try to understand," Myne said, not willing to give up something he had worked hard to get.

"You… forget it. Remember to send me a copy of those pics as well."

Just as Myne thought Fenrir might blackmail him to destroy those photos of her younger brother, she said something that left him speechless.

Tsk, they are indeed siblings. This level of love couldn't exist between distant or name-only relationships. Myne's mouth lifted at the corners as he thought about how he and Fenrir would team up to use these pictures for fun. At the very least, Fenrir would surely make Ymir life hell with them. He must be careful—if Ymir found out that he was behind this entire incident, he would get beaten to death for sure.
