"You kidnapped Bing Bing. What do you want?" Elisa Tachibana asked, frowning at Roy.

"Don't worry. Please, have a seat," Roy said, gesturing towards the sofa opposite him.

Elisa and her two friends sat down.

Karen served them tea. Elisa, her friends, and even Lu Bing Bing were confused by this display of hospitality.

He had kidnapped them, lured them into a trap, and now he was being polite? It didn't make sense.

"Relax. I invited you here to discuss a—collaboration," Roy said with a smile.

"Collaboration?" Elisa was skeptical.

"I have the cure for the MK virus."

"What?!" The three girls were stunned.

Their organization had been working tirelessly on a cure, but progress was slow. They were years away from a breakthrough.

Yet, this man claimed to already have a cure? It was unbelievable.

Elisa frowned. If he had a cure, why not just release it? Why this—collaboration?

But she didn't ask. If he wasn't revealing his reasons, there must be a reason.

"What kind of collaboration?" she asked calmly.

"Simple. I give you the cure and the formula, and in return—I want you," Roy said, looking at Elisa with a smirk.

"What?!" Elisa was taken aback. He was willing to give them the cure and the formula? That was incredibly generous.

But his final demand... He wanted her?

"My apologies. I haven't introduced myself. Call me Roy," Roy said with a smile.

"Roy—we've just met. Why do you want—me

"We're willing to take Elisa's place," her two friends offered.

"Well, it's true we've just met. But I—like girls with your personality. So, consider it. Of course, if you refuse, I won't force you. You're free to leave," Roy shrugged.

He wasn't one to force anyone, usually.

Elisa thought for a moment, then said, "I want to see Bing Bing."

"No problem. Karen, take them to see—Lu Bing Bing."

"Yes, Roy-sama!"

Karen nodded and led the three girls out of the room.

Roy waited patiently. He would let them think it over.

In another room, Elisa and her friends finally saw Lu Bing Bing.

"Elisa, why did you come?!" Lu Bing Bing exclaimed.

"I had to. You're in danger. I asked you to take on this mission. It's my responsibility," Elisa said with a gentle smile.

"No, it's not like that! That man...he..." Lu Bing Bing excitedly explained that the phone call hadn't been her intention.

She had been prepared to be discovered. But if that happened, she wouldn't have called for help.

Elisa and her friends exchanged surprised glances.

"Bing Bing, are you saying that he used magic to control you and force you to call for help?" Elisa couldn't believe it. How was that possible?

This was a world of science, not magic.

If magic existed, they would have already cured the MK virus.

"It's true!" Lu Bing Bing insisted.

After a moment, Elisa and her friends reluctantly accepted her explanation, though it still felt surreal.

How could magic exist in this world?

"Elisa, what should we do?"

"You've been waiting for your childhood friend. You can't possibly agree to his demands!"

"Let's just leave! He said he would let us go!"

——

Her two friends tried to persuade her.

Lu Bing Bing also looked at Elisa, her expression conflicted.

Developing a cure for the MK virus had always been Elisa's dream. And now, the cure was within reach.

But on the other hand, there was Reito, her childhood friend, whom she had been waiting for.

What should she choose?

"Pack your things. You're leaving," Elisa said.

Lu Bing Bing and her friends were stunned.

"Elisa, you're not thinking of...?"

"Yes. Our organization is still years away from developing a cure. We might not even succeed. I can't miss this opportunity," Elisa said with determination.

"Elisa, you can't trust him so easily!"

"We don't even know if he actually has the cure!"

"Just go!"

Elisa wouldn't listen. She insisted they leave.

——

Karen, listening outside the door, smirked.

As expected, Roy-sama was right. She had agreed.

She entered the room and gestured to the two armed guards beside her.

The guards entered the room.

"You three, leave. Now."

Lu Bing Bing and her friends had no choice but to comply.

"You've made the right decision. Roy-sama will become the new ruler of this world. Now, come with me," Karen said to Elisa with a smile, then turned and led her back to Roy's room.

Elisa followed, her expression unreadable.

"Welcome back. Have you made your decision?" Roy asked, stifling a yawn.

"I agree to your terms. But only after I see proof that the MK virus cure actually works," Elisa said calmly.

Roy admired her composure.

"Alright, I agree to your condition. Karen, take her and arrange a room," Roy instructed.

"Yes, Roy-sama!" Karen smiled and led Elisa away.

After settling Elisa, Karen gathered the other girls and brought them to Roy's room, as instructed.

Karen had been expecting—another orgy. But instead, he showed her a different kind of world.

Devils.

A word she was unfamiliar with. She hadn't known they actually existed.

Karen, being ambitious, wouldn't miss the chance to become an Immortal-Devil.

And so, all the girls present were transformed into Devil servants.

——

The next morning.

Roy woke up late, nestled in Akane's arms.

After getting up and freshening up—

Karen rushed in with some news.

"Roy-sama, it seems the UW has learned about you. They've sent someone to investigate."

Karen had received a message from the higher-ups that a woman named Chloe Mansfield was coming to investigate Roy—the only surviving man.

The higher-ups were terrified of Roy being taken away, so they had instructed Karen to keep him at the school at all costs.

Of course, if Roy didn't want to leave, there was nothing they could do.

Roy, hearing this, was surprised. So, Chloe Mansfield—the voluptuous blonde, was coming after all.

While she was incredibly attractive, being a clone of a high-ranking UW official, she might be—a lesbian.

But that was just speculation.

"When is she arriving?" Roy asked, stifling a yawn.

"Around noon," Karen replied.

"Let me know when she arrives."

Roy got up and left the room.

"Yes, Roy-sama!"

——

"Roy, when are you giving me the MK virus cure?" Elisa asked, intercepting him in the hallway.

"Here."

Using his [Prophecy Authority]—Roy instantly knew the formula and composition of the cure.

He created a vial of the cure with his magic.

Handing it to Elisa, he whispered in her ear, "Come to my room tonight."

Elisa blushed, but the cure, along with the formula, made her happy.

Being a researcher specializing in the MK virus, Elisa quickly analyzed the formula and confirmed its viability.

She immediately transmitted the information back to her organization.

Then, she had Lu Bing Bing come to the school to retrieve the sample.

The organization was overjoyed.

Within half a day, they confirmed that the formula worked.

They tested it on a cryogenically frozen man who hadn't been killed by the virus—and it was a success.

There were still many men in cryogenic sleep, using that method to slow the progression of the MK virus. These men far outnumbered the five who were immune.

That's why they were so eager to develop a cure.

Knowing that the cure worked, Elisa was elated. She had made the right choice.

Meanwhile.

At noon, the UW envoy finally arrived at the school.

Roy finally met the voluptuous blonde, Chloe Mansfield.
