Hikaru wanted to use Laylah to defeat the other protagonists. That was also the reason he accepted her request to stay here.
Although he didn't know if Laylah would become his ally, he wanted to try.
Anyway, Laylah is also a main character, and he is a villain, if he fails, everything returns to the starting point. He and Laylah will be enemies like every other novel.
If he succeeds, he not only has a terrible ally, but that ally can help him destroy the other main characters.
However… he also didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket. He needed a backup plan.
Hikaru began to try to remember what he had read in the novels "Apocalypse: I own the Panara Box" and "The Apocalypse Encyclopedia".
However, everything was in vain because most of the great items or good opportunities only appear when the apocalypse hits.
So, none of those things have appeared.
Hikaru could only sigh, continue to hoard food, and wait for the apocalypse to come before he can act.
…
At Ryrlia's bedroom, she was wearing a semi-transparent red nightgown, and sitting on the bed while watching Ekora's messages.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Inside the message was a video, yes, that video was Hikaru fighting Tadashi.
Ryrlia frowned, she felt the video being played on the tablet was like something out of a sci-fi movie.
The speed of the two of them was unbelievable, plus Tadashi's strange form, the light surrounding him..etc.
What is being shown in the video was extremely unbelievable. If this video had not been provided by Ekora, Ryrlia would have assumed that this was a sci-fi movie.
Ryrlia frowned and slightly bit her thumb. What the hell is going on with this world? Was there something she didn't know was going on?
Ryrlia began to direct her suspicions towards Hikaru. That's right, since yesterday, Hikaru seemed to have turned into a completely different person.
This all started when Hikaru gave up his inheritance, and things started to get weird since then.
Ryrlia muttered: "Why is Hikaru so strong? What is he hoarding food for? Maybe… will there be a war?"
"Incorrect. All countries are currently at the stage of economic development and military and political consolidation, no country will be stupid enough to launch a war."
"Even if war breaks out, there is no point in hoarding so much food. It only takes a plane to drop a bomb or an army to occupy his mansion and it would become nothing."
"so… What is Hikaru doing?"
Ryrlia had a lot of speculations but she still couldn't figure out what Hikaru was doing, or what he had planned.
She sighed, then sent a message to Ekora: "Continue to follow Hikaru, besides, learn a little about the surrounding countries."
After texting Ekora, Ryrlia turned on her personal phone, then called Laylah.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
"Ryrlia?" Laylah's voice came from Ryrlia's phone.
Ryrlia said with a smile, "Laylah, you've found someone interesting, haven't you?"
"Hm… of course I can't hide It from you. Yes, I am very excited, hopefully the future will be even more interesting."
"Hikaru is a pretty special person. No, to be more precise, it all started yesterday, after Hikaru gave up his inheritance, he seems to be planning something."
Laylah laughed and said, "Hahaha… Ryrlia, are you trying to get more information from me?"
"Huh! something interesting happened and you didn't tell me, I'm sure you just wanted to play alone, right?"
"Ah! It isn't like that. I just got to know this guy. Besides… haizzz, he stole my first kiss but he still treats me coldly, I'm heartbroken..hix hix…"
Ryria: "…"
"Laylah, you mean… Hikaru stole your first kiss?"
"Yes, he stole my first kiss."
"Laylah, are you kidding me? A person who can go against 20 men like you was forcefully kissed by someone else?"
"Okay, I will tell you the truth, I forcibly kissed him."
"Ah! It seems that my girl has been lonely for so long that she has turned into a perverted old woman."
"That's right, this perverted old woman won't tell you any information, bye bye~"
Laylah finished and hung up the phone, Ryrlia wasn't angry, on the contrary, she showed an amused smile and mumbled: "Hm... looks like I need to meet this guy for a bit..."
…
Of course, Hikaru didn't know what Ryrlia and Laylah were thinking, right now, he was sleeping on a bed larger than his bedroom on Earth.
The next morning, Hikaru had breakfast in the dining room, during breakfast he saw that Velys was a little tired, as her eyes were dark and puffy like a panda's, he frowned then asked.
"Velys, are you sleep deprived?"
Hearing Hikaru's question, Velys was startled, she quickly said: "No, I was just thinking about how to buy more and stock up on food."
Hearing that, Hikaru sighed: "Haizz, don't worry, just focus on buying as much food as possible, I'll take care of the rest."
Velys nodded and putt his breakfast in front of him. Hikaru saw that on the plate there was a portion of omelette, and grilled meat that was beautifully decorated.
He felt that Velys was the perfect wife. She could both do housework, manage the family, and she could also become a tactician to help him solve difficult problems.
What is more special is that Velys' love seems to be absolute, as she does not ask him to return her love.
Besides, she also does many things to please him, like a dog wagging its tail at its owner.
Hikaru shook his head, he took out a potion from Panara's space and gave it to Velys.
"Drink it, your body will get better."
Velys held the vial given to her by Hikaru, inside it was a blue solution like a glowing algae.
Although she found the vial of this solution extremely strange, Velys did not suspect it, she opened the vial…
"Wait! It is better if you soak in the bath while drinking. Its side effects can make you feel hot to the point you would feel like you are being burned by fire."
Velys nodded, but then she lowered her head, feeling extremely embarrassed and said, "Hikaru… I… can I use your bathroom?"
"Hm?!" Hikaru frowned, then he seemed to have realized something and said, "You only focused on renovating my room and didn't care about yours, didn't you?"
Velys nodded slightly.
Hikaru sighed, "Haizzz, Velys, I know you love me but you also need to love yourself, understand?"
Velys continued to nod.
Um! I will love myself, but I love you more than myself.
"Okay, you can just use my room. But… aren't you afraid that I will harm you? You don't know the source of that potion, aren't you afraid it's a poison potion?"
When Velys heard that, she raised her head and looked directly into Hikaru's eyes, she smiled, a smile so beautiful it dazzled Hikaru.
"Hikaru, I love you and trust you. Even if this is poison, I will happily drink it."
Hikaru could only smile wryly, he shook his head and said: "Um… don't worry, it's not poison. After using it, you are my woman, understand?"
Velys face suddenly turned red like a ripe apple, however, she still smiled happily and nodded slightly. After that, Velys took the medicine bottle went upstairs and entered Hikaru's room.
Hikaru also didn't care too much about what would happen. Velys using the power evolution potion won't have any problems except for a few side effects such as her body evolving to become more perfect.
After eating, Hikaru headed to Shiori's room. As soon as the door opened, Hikaru saw Shiori sitting by the window her body was covered in white gauze.
Her room was on the second floor so she could easily see the partial landscape of the garden and the mountainside.
However, Hikaru also noticed that it seemed that Shiori's room was only lightly cleaned, and it was not suitable for a patient like her.
Maybe Velys made the renovation of his room a priority. Hikaru wasn't angry, anyway, Velys' thoughts were only directed at him, that's what he should be happy about.
"Are you looking at the scenery?"
Hearing Hikaru's voice, Shiori turned her head in surprise. In fact, Shiori seemed to be thinking about something so when Hikaru opened the door, she didn't notice the sound the door made.
Shiori hurriedly found the notebook, then began to write on the paper: "Good morning, master."
"Master?" Hikaru saw the writing on the notebook and frowned: "You don't have to call me master."
Shiori shook her head, she continued to write: "No! You gave me a second life, you are my master."
Hikaru did not object to that, if Shiori was loyal to him and she wanted to treat him as her master, it was even better. Thus, it was easier for Hikaru to make Shiori his loyal ally.
"Um! Then it's up to you. How do you feel today? Are you better?"
Shiori nodded, and she tried to write. Hikaru looked at her as she tried to write, the hand holding the pen was trembling, this showed that Shiori was in pain.
He didn't give Shiori the power evolution potion because he wanted to let her feel the pain.
Only then could she gain supernatural powers when the apocalypse strikes.
If he let Shiori use the evolution potion, her ability wouldn't be special either.
[Master, you should feel lucky not to let Shiori use the power evolution potion.]
"Hm?! Why?"
[Because her body is too weak right now, she's so weak that even a mild cold would kill her instantly.]
[Shiori's body has reached its limit, if she takes the power evolution potion, she won't be able to withstand the potion's power, and she would end up being burned by the potion, and turn into a pile of ashes.]
