Ulysses lived in a small independent two-story building in a corner of the city. This building was hidden behind a noble villa, where the servants of the noble villa originally lived. But this noble family had fallen, so the servants who originally lived in this small building had also left. In the end, it was rented by Ulysses for a few gold coins. Because it was far from the main road of the city and the facilities inside were also very old, there were actually no other people in this small building except Ulysses.

However, although this small building was far away from the main road of the city, and it was also very old, for Ulysses who wanted to find a quiet place to study, it couldn't be better; that was why he rented it at a seemingly unreasonable price as his home in Taji City.

"Sorry, it might be messy inside." After opening the door with the key he carried with him, Ulysses smiled embarrassedly at Arcelia and Helen, and then pushed open the door that seemed to be crumbling.

The appearance in the house was almost exactly the same as when Ulysses left. The living room on the first floor was full of messy things, and the kitchen door could be vaguely seen behind those things. Those things came with the house when Ulysses rented the house, and he had no plans to clean it up. Originally, he didn't plan to stay in this Taji City for too long, so his request for his residence was quiet. The room on the second floor was just what he wanted.

Although Ulysses didn't care, Arcelia, who had received formal aristocratic education, frowned the moment she saw how messy it was. However, she had encountered a worse accommodation environment on the battlefield, so it was not unbearable.

"I won't go in. I have an appointment with a girl named Aya, and I will live outside. So you can take Helen and Lulu in. Please take good care of Lulu." In Arcelia's view, she did not need to follow Ulysses to his bedroom. After saying this, she turned and left.

‘Sure enough, this environment is really bad for a knight.’ After Ulysses chuckled bitterly, he took Helen to his room on the second floor.

"Ka! Ka!" The sound of their footsteps broke the silence in the house, and several spiders ran away from the stairs in a panic, giving way to Ulysses and Helen.

"Sorry, Helen, I can’t let you sleep in a comfortable place. I hope you won’t mind it." Ulysses walked to the door of his room and said to Helen who was following him with some guilt. According to his original plan, Helen should have gone to the hotel with Aya, but he didn't know why Helen insisted on following him. The final result of the discussion was that everyone except her would live in the hotel. Aya, who was no longer in a bracelet form, even mysteriously said in his ear:

"Be gentle at night. Helen is still very young."

‘What is Aya thinking in her head all day long! I would not do anything to Helen... No, I would not even have any strange feelings for Helen at all! She is my daughter!’ Thinking of Aya's words, Ulysses felt very annoyed. ‘What does she think of me? Does she think that I’m the demon king of lust?’

"Mhm!" Helen, who heard Ulysses' words, shook her head repeatedly, and said without hesitation: "It's okay! Helen's favorite place is where Daddy is, so daddy, you don’t need to worry about it. And Helen doesn't think that this place is bad. It is much better than that deserted island."

"Really? That's good." Helen's answer surprised Ulysses a little. Only then did he realize that Helen, who was born on that desert island, did not have any special requirements for a place to stay. But this made him feel even more sorry.

‘Is it time to move? For a girl, this environment is really bad. Lulu probably wouldn't like this kind of room, right? Anyway, I have money now, so I should go to the mercenary union in a few days to ask! There should be a quiet and comfortable house for rent!’ In Ulysses's mind, for the first time, he began to consider the issue of changing the living environment.

‘However, this is not something that can be done in a day or two. I still need to live here for a few days.’ Thinking like this, Ulysses pushed open the door of his room.

The room behind the door looked the same as on the first floor, almost unchanged, the only change was that there seemed to be a few more sheets of paper on the table.

‘This should be left by that guy!’ Seeing the paper on the table, Ulysses smiled. He picked it up and took a look at it. A few large and skewed words appeared his field of vision.

“Ulysses, where did you go? Did you take up a good mission? Why didn't you notify me? Do you know? That creepy murderer has been killed by some very powerful guy! And that guy left us a large amount of condolence money. I don't know what that guy thinks. When you come back, go to the mercenary guild to find me.”

“Ulysses, we Wild Beast recently need to recruit people, do you want to think about joining our group again? Our leader said that as long as you come, he will directly appoint you as a deputy leader! Find me when you come back.”

“Ulysses, you stupid idiot, where did you go! Why does it feel like you have evaporated from this world? Why didn’t you come to find me? I hoped you didn’t board the Titan Poseidon. I heard that it sank. Find me when you come back.”

“Ulysses! ! Where the hell are you! If you don't come back, I will sell all your priests' codes that you regard as the lifeblood for the money! Find me when you come back.”

With such ugly words and such a wild tone, Ulysses could only think of one person in this Taji City, and that was his bad friend - beastmen warrior Kanka.

Judging from how old the piece of paper on top was, the last message should be left today. It seemed that he often came here to check on him. After making this inference, Ulysses looked at the room. Sure enough, he found traces of someone who had been here recently. The biggest evidence was that there were a few more wine bottles in the corner of his room.

"Kanka that guy, did he come here for a drink again? I really don’t know what to do with him. I shouldn’t have given him the key! Forget it, I should sort out the sleeping place first! Helen, take care of Lulu." After sighing helplessly, Ulysses handed Lulu to Helen on the side and began to make the bed.

Just when Ulysses tried to remove the dust on the bed, his left shoulder glowed softly. After a flash, Lapis appeared on his shoulder.

"Creator? Have you returned to the continent? Here is..." After looking at the surrounding environment, Lapis asked with some confusion.

"Ah! Lapis, are you awake? This is my home. Is your body okay?" Because the ship Ulysses, the main body of Lapis, had sunk into the sea, Lapis, which relied on her magic energy to move around, had been affected more than expected. As a result, she only woke up from a deep sleep just now. When she was asleep, she would turn into a crystal and cling to Ulysses's body, but according to Aya's calculation, this was only a temporary phenomenon. When Lapis got used to relying on herself to absorb the magic energy from the air or Ulysses, she would be able to move freely. Now it was just a transitional period.

"Yes! The conversion of the magic energy system has been completed about half, and it will be fully converted in about three days. Then Lapis can help the creator again. But because the conversion system is mainly to absorb the magic energy from the creator’s body, Lapis will not be able to leave the creator for a while. But this will not have much impact on the creator, because what Lapis transforms is the power of the demon king in the creator’s body! However, if the creator doesn’t like it, Lapis will immediately switch to another system, but that will take a few months." Lapis seemed to say apologetically.

"It’s fine. As long as you are okay. Anyway, the power of the demon king is usually useless to me." Ulysses said hesitantly. He felt very conflicted about the power of the demon king that existed in his body. On the one hand, he didn't want to use it. After all, his goal was to be a priest. But when encountering any danger, he must use it, otherwise, he or the people around him would be hurt, which he absolutely did not want to see.

"No, the power of the demon king is very important to you, creator. However, the amount used by Lapis is insignificant to you..." Lapis seemed to want to say something, but at this moment her figure suddenly swayed and began to blur.

"Lapis? Are you okay?" Ulysses was taken aback.

"It’s fine, this is caused by the incomplete conversion. Lapis will need to sleep for a while, and will be fine in a few days." After a soft voice, Lapis disappeared. Instead, a silver crystal was attached to the shoulder part of Ulyssesmage's robe.

‘Fortunately, it’s just sleeping!’ Ulysses breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that Lapis was not in any danger. Because of the size of Lapis, the conversations between them were very quiet; so Ulysses didn't worry about the conversation being heard by Helen, who was flipping through the furniture curiously. He didn't want Helen to know about his demon king identity. In his opinion, Helen was just an ordinary girl, so it was better to keep her from knowing these things. Although he knew that Helen would never tell anyone even if she knew these things.

But what Ulysses didn't know was that Helen heard every word he and Lapis said. But for Helen, this was not a secret. She naturally wouldn't say anything when Aya told her not to reveal her apostle identity.

"Daddy. Are we going to sleep together tonight?" After walking around the room, Helen made a request that gave Ulysses a headache. If this sentence was said by Rasputin or Arcelia, it was probably not a headache but an unsolvable problem. But they definitely would not ask such a question! [Not long after this, Ulysses realized that he was completely wrong.]

Because he had never considered the possibility of guests coming to his house and staying overnight, Ulysses didn't prepare any other sleeping places. If the guest insisted, the floor was the only option. But now the dusty floor obviously did not meet the requirements of a sleeping place. Of course, if it was the beastmen warrior Kanka, then it probably would not be a problem.

‘In this case, we can only sleep together! Helen is just a kid anyway, so I won’t have any strange thoughts about her in any way. Speaking of, I’ve already slept with Cherie and Helen for one night on the desert island! It should be no problem!’ After thinking about it for a while, Ulysses still made a decision.

"Mhm! Let's sleep together after I'm ready. Tomorrow I will buy a bed for you to sleep in. You can sleep with me and Lulu today." Now that it had been decided, Ulysses would not hesitate anymore. After telling Helen of his decision, he began to work hard to tidy up his bed.

‘Mhm, although small, it won't be a big problem to fit two people.’ Naturally, he who thought this way would not know the ecstatic smile that Helen showed behind him.

‘Great, I can sleep with Daddy! And no one else is here! My heartbeat is so fast! Is this a dream? If it's a dream, I don't want to wake up again.’ Touching her wildly beating heart, Helen felt her whole body trembling.

‘Oh right, there is this apostle!’ After looking at Lulu in her arms, Helen frowned, lifted it up, and whispered in its ear:

"Tonight belongs to me and Daddy. You'd better stay still! Otherwise, even if we are both apostles, I will kill you without hesitation." After speaking, she quietly sent out a cold killing intent to it. Only until Lulu obediently shrank into a ball did she finally stop contentedly.

"Huh? What's wrong with Lulu, why is it looking listless? Is it sick?" After making the bed, Ulysses took Lulu from Helen's hand and saw Lulu shrink into a motionless ball. He felt a bit strange.

"Mhm! It should be tired! Helen is tired too, daddy, let's sleep together!" Helen said excitedly, and there was no "tiredness" on her face.

"Really? Mhm, indeed, it's late. It's time to go to bed. Come here! Helen, be good." After hesitating for a while, Ulysses waved to Helen...

At this moment, on the roof of the small building where Ulysses lived, a knight in steel armor was sitting on the corner of the roof with her eyes closed. In the light of the blue moonlight, her armor exuded a cold and soft light. A gust of night wind blew by, blowing up a few strands of golden hair on her forehead, revealing her calm and collected face.

"What’s wrong? Why don't you go to the hotel I found to rest?" Silently, the purple-haired little demon appeared behind her.

"As a knight, it is a matter of course for me to protect my master. I am no longer a human being, so I don't need to sleep. Those were your words!" The knight opened her eyes. Those eyes did not contain any impurities and were as green as the clear lake in the forest.

"It's true. But I didn't expect you to be loyal to this extent. But this is not bad. In that case, I will leave the task of protecting master to you. I'm going to sleep now." After yawning, the purple-haired demon flew away.

‘Because for me, there is nothing else to do except this.’ After sighing secretly, the knight closed her eyes again. In her hands, Excalibur, the invisible holy sword, was preparing to attack the enemy anytime and anywhere. Of course, if there were enemies.

At this time, at the gate of Taji City, Iphia and Quna from the deep sea were curiously strolling around the night market. For them who had never been to the continent, everything here was interesting.

"Elder Sister! Why can't we bring Hercules here!" While happy, Iphia was also a little dissatisfied, because she was often ignored by people next to her because of her petite body, so people who couldn't see her bumped into her from time to time. Because Quna didn't allow her to use power in the city, she couldn't use cold air to vent her dissatisfaction. At this time, she began to miss Hercules' huge body. If he was there, it would make people afraid to approach her.

"That's because Hercules looks so conspicuous. Bringing him to the city will cause a commotion. So for the time being, he can only be allowed to stay in the woods outside, but if there is a fight, he can arrive here in a minute!" Quna said while selecting the lollipops from the vendors.

"Is that so? Ah! Elder Sister! I want one of those lollipops too!" Iphia sighed after receiving Quna's explanation, but her attention was immediately attracted by the colorful lollipops on Quna's hands... ...

In the deep mountains somewhere, the great dragon hero Laxia was still looking at the familiar scenery in front of her, feeling frustrated. Now she was almost certain that she was lost again.

"Ahhhhh! If this goes on. When will I get to Taji City where Ulysses is living! Damn it! It's all the fault of this damn forest!" Annoyed, she lifted up the Dragon King Buster Sword behind her to kill her enemy - a small forest...

On the shore not far from Taji City, a beautiful woman with long wavy blue hair walked slowly from the ocean to the beach. After looking around, she said with a little excitement,

"Is this the port city from which the sunken ship departed? I hope I can find the trace of the hero who defeated the abyss demon here. It took me a lot of time to freely transform the Merpeople form and the human form, but now it is possible for me to walk on the land without showing any trace. Anyway, I should hurry up and go to the city to find news about that hero!"
