Chapter 599 - I'm Bringing You Home With Me

(MC POV)

After that disastrous game of twister which I would most definitely never play again, Luna finally managed to calm down enough to listen to my request, or rather, Brendan's request.

"Husband wants to make use of the prisoners in the dungeons to test to potion?"

I nodded, trying my best to ignore the naked Diao Chan who was sleeping on my shoulder while her hands were wrapped around me.

Good thing I managed to put Cai Hong back in her room for her afternoon nap before the crazy things I predicted would happen started happening. I knew from the start Elaria had something else planned for this other than just a normal Twister game.

Luna tapped her chin for a few moments before clapping her hands together.

"Rina!"

The maid appeared by her side immediately, not even reacting to the scene of debauchery in front of her.

"Your Majesty. These are the names of the prisoners we have on death row who will not be missed even if they died horribly. I have put them in order of importance with the least important people at the front. I have also taken the liberty of including criminal slaves on the list as well in case there isn't enough of them."

"Fufu~ Well done, Rina. That will be all."

"Thank you for your praise, your Majesty," Rina bowed her head before disappearing without a sound.

Luna flipped through the pile of doc.u.ments Rina had given her, her eyes scanning through the pages with the speed of someone who has done this millions of times.

"Hmm For husband's experiment We can make use of these few traitor sc.u.m Then go down the list for these low lifes And then the slaves. Mmhmm~ This looks good enough."

She nodded to herself before setting the stack aside and smiling at me, "I can have a number of prisoners prepared for husband's use anytime, how many would you like to experiment on?"

"Hmm How many can you prepare?"

"Fufufu~ As many as husband desires~ I would prepare them for you!"

The fact that she said that without hesitation reminded me of the fact that she was someone who would experiment on people without remorse.

Well, not like I am in any position to say anything considering I'm about to do the same thing too.

If you ask me if life is important, I would, of course, tell you that it is.

But if you were to ask me to weigh the importance between a stranger's life compared to my disciples or anyone else I might care about, I would definitely pick to prioritise my loved ones over the stranger's life.

Life is important, but it is not equal to me.

"In that case, it might be a better idea if you were to discuss this with Brendan since he would be the one experimenting with it," I suggested.

Luna tilted her head at me, "Brendan? Ah He's husband's male disciple isn't he? Very well, I will have Rina discuss that with him."

Just when I was about to agree with her, Diao Chan stirred and sat up slowly while rubbing her eyes.

"Mnnn Is it morning already?" She groaned.

I patted her head, "It's late afternoon already, could you help me wake the rest up? Oh and tell Lian Li I wish to speak to her."

Diao Chan made a few noises of affirmation before getting up, trudging along to wake the rest of her sisters.

Luna turned to me, "What shall we do now husband? Should I ask Rina to prepare a bath for us? Or should we go another round with just the two of us? I wouldn't mind either way you know? If husband would like to start experimenting on those lowlifes I could arrange that right away too! Just say the word and--"

I raised my hand quickly to stop her before she started another long tirade.

"Before we do anything else, I do have some things I want to ask first if you don't mind?"

She smiled at me, "Of course not, husband. If it's something I can answer, I will do so right away~"

I steepled my fingers in front of me, "Are you serious about following me back to the Earthen Plane?"

"Of course, husband. I've already made plans for my successor to take over so I can leave anytime~"

She didn't even hesitate and answered me immediately. I suppose she really did think things through and she wasn't just deciding on leaving on the spur of the moment.

"You are prepared to leave everything you know here behind just to go with me?"

"Of course! For the love of my life that I had been searching for so long There was no way I would give husband up and stay here alone again!"

"And what about Rina?"

"Unn It would be best if husband allows me to bring her along as well. But if husband does not want her to come, I am willing to leave her here too."

I frowned, "Wouldn't that hurt Rina?"

Luna shook her head, "She is already prepared for such a possibility, we have already talked about this, after all."

Yep, Luna was definitely really thorough in everything she did.

If she had told me that she was giving up everything to follow me without considering everyone else around her, I would have rejected her leaving this place with me since I would be worried about potential problems following us back home.

Good to see that there was nothing for us to worry about.

"Good morning Master, you were looking for me?"

I turned to see Lian Li walking towards me, my golden haired disciple smoothening her clothes as she approached.

"Yes, I wanted to ask if there were any problems with us staying here for such a long time? I'm worried the people back home might do something to find us."

Lian Li shook her head, "There's no need to worry about that Master, I properly told everyone back at home what we would be doing here so they would be waiting for us patiently. If need be, Elaria can send her flying s.h.i.+p back home with instructions from us first."

"That's good. It would be quite problematic if even more people from our Plane start coming over only to realise that we had already returned."

Lian Li's face brightened, "Does this mean we're going home soon, Master?"

I shrugged, "All we're missing is one final ingredient for the potion which I believe Tsuki has a high probability of making. So once we test what we have on those prisoners and verify its effects, we should be returning home quite soon. Unless Tsuki takes a while to learn the skill anyway."

"Oh, that is wonderful news Master! I will go tell the others right away!"

Luna and I watched her run towards the other girls with the news before the Matriarch s.h.i.+fted closer to me and hugged my arm.

"Husband Thank you."

"There's no need to thank me. You've become one of the people I care about too so it's normal that I would want to keep you by my side as well."

"Ufufufu~ Husband really is a charmer. No wonder your cute disciples also fell so hard for you~"

I simply patted the Queen on her head, idly wondering whether she would be good friends with Guiying or would they be mortal enemies?
