But she erased her own aura and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He finished a synergy for a recovery and was nowhere near his peak. But he couldn't afford to wait any longer. So, he started the creation of shards right after synergy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That crazy little…\" Varian had never been so mad at someone. After all the risks he took, this girl ran away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have to keep most of your focus on your powers. The shards are a delicate business.] Logos said in the usual cold tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Sorry.' Varian said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hey Logos, watch your tone! He's just worried! Besides, I'm helping you, he can do normal things just fine.' Samsara was fiercely protective as always.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The creation of sliver shards was happening in an inner space controlled by Varian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To an onlooker, nothing was visible. But if some used their space power to 'remove the curtain', they could sense the intense reactions beneath the space layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(But where had she gone, really? Logos, what do you think?)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Don't disturb me.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His wives were also searching. But there was no result yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Looks like the shards are going to take at least 24 hours. She might not survive that long. It's a good thing you didn't tell her. She has accepted her death. You should too.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian rolled his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(You're terrible at comforting people. Even if you want him to prepare for it, you can say it softly.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I…am not comforting him.] Logos stammered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Tsunderes are outdated. Keep up with the times, old lady. Learn from the new comer, ahem, that is me.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Outdated, huh. Wait, old times…' Varian ignored the bickering of his slivers and turned in a direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar store, Centaurus Duchy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a step, he appeared in front of that old building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's been so long. Somehow, the store still remained. No, it seemed to be frozen in time, unchanged in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to his arrival last time, there were far fewer people on the street. The city was also less lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[That's a thousand freaking years ago. Of course, things change.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Pala kingdom has a terrible divine ranker as its ruler. And a bloodthirsty celestial ranker is assigned as the regent of Centaurus. I can smell blood and death everywhere.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian shook his head and walked into the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no guards to stop and no maids to care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The business had long ceased to exist. This building itself was concealed under an 'illusion'. People would automatically ignore it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't meant for the people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was meant for—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian, with his aura fully concealed, stepped into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A veiled woman in silky white clothes and long purple hair sat calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her vitality was falling with each moment. Cracks were appearing on her skin. And her power was crashing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he feared, the temporary treatment was failing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hurry—'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I can't do it faster than 24 hours. Don't disturb me.] Logos cut him off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian sighed and slowly sat in front of Aurora.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still hadn't realized that someone broke into the building and was sitting in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian observed her face closely. The veil couldn't stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora's face showed no anxiety. She was relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Relief for what…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(What else? Your survival.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian shut up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem.\" He cleared his throat and Aurora nearly jumped in fright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After noticing him, she patted her chest before sitting down. Then, noticing something, she returned to an aloof temperament and said. \"I've been waiting for you, Mr. Foreigner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian froze at those words. These were the first words 'exchanged' between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, he stood up, rolling his sleeves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Wait!\" Aurora panicked. \"What are you going to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian pulled her up and laid her over his shoulders, like a bandit kidnapping a princess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you run away?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thaaap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora straightened her back as her ass burned in pain. \"Hiss!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thaaap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Answer me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thaaap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sitting here like this? To die in the place we met? What's this stupid scene? Am I some kind of romance protagonist? Or are you a heroine? What if I didn't guess this place? You'd be dead, you idiot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thap! Thap! Thap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah! Stop hitting! Please stop! Ouch!\" Aurora cried out. \"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, okay! I just thought dying like this was cool! At least you'd remember me. Ouch! Gently, gently!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Calamity sighed in relief. And then she slowly rubbed her burning skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Ouch!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remember you after you're gone?\" Varian put her down and Aurora immediately jumped up, hissing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With tears swirling in her eyes, Aurora looked at him pitifully. \"Brother-in-law…it hurts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian looked around in the room and recalled their first meeting. \"When I first met you, you troubled me a lot. And then, in the academy too, you were giving me trouble day after day. Oh god, now that I think about it, I never punished you for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What?\" Aurora stepped back, realizing her attempt to act pitiful and gain sympathy had failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she screamed, he placed her over his thighs and began another round of spanking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn't know you b-ouch! Back then! I-I wa-ah! I was just messin—ouch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, Varian paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora was breathing heavily. \"S-So you want to beat me up before I go? To spank such a beautiful girl, b-brother-in-law, you're a devil.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough self-praise.\" Varian slapped her lightly on the back and Aurora twitched at the gentle touch, before sighing in resignation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, fine, my ass is yours, do whatever you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What will I do with your ass? Keep it with you.\" Varian clicked his tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora nearly coughed out blood. What sin did she commit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought he'd find her dead in this place after a long search.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Oh Aurora, we meet last where we first met. For this whole life, I'd never forget you!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a romantic ending!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found her before she died. And he's the spanking the hell out of her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worst of all, after so much touching, he was despising her ass!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I want to die.' Aurora felt done with life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world shifted and she found herself in the bustling streets of Pala capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn't you say you wanted a gift? I'll spend the whole day with you. However you want. Come on!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora asked in a low voice. \"However I want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah,\" Varian said. \"However you want. 24 hours. Every single one of your wishes will be respected. So, make use of them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'So, please survive these 24 hours. Don't die! Your will to survive will keep you alive!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora didn't know Varian's inner pleas. But she did want to spend her last hours fulfilling all her regrets and wishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mother never loved me. And my peers, they all found it tough to keep up with a genius like me. You should've seen their faces, tsk tsk.\" Miss Calamity began to smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian flicked her temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ouch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clutching her forehead, she looked at him pitifully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come to the point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As I'm about to die in a few hours, I realized…\" Aurora lowered her head, speaking in a shy tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian raised a brow. 'Shy? There are things she is shy about?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I did finally get friends in your wives. Family too. But I never had one type of relationship.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's crisis sense started working and he took a step back. And then another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could run for it, Aurora grabbed his arm and showed a cunning smile. \"Be my boyfriend for a day?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[So evil! She's going to die soon. But she'll get you killed before she's dead!]\u003C\u002Fp>",1280,"2026-06-06T07:59:03.344Z",1,"novelbin.me","579589111b04ddb61eeb9b1c08c24a874e2fec73f9cfed8a54d1f0f658fa633b","divine-path-system-chapter-1737","divine-path-system-chapter-1735",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
