Chapter 263 Family Reunion (2)
As time passed, he became more and more obsessed with machines.
Instead of admiring the smooth and warm skin of a female.
He preferred touching the rough and cold surface of a machine while sleeping.
"Another hopeless brat..." Maximus sighed again.
"And you?" Maximus turned to Neo, who still hadn\'t made progress with Aria.
"Huh? What about me, Dad?" Neo didn\'t know how to answer.
"What about Aria?"
"Why haven\'t you gotten married yet?"
"Will you let the girl wait for you?" Maximus asked one by one.
Behind Aria, who was listening, was a bit embarrassed.
Over the decades, her relationship with Neo was like a knife and butter— inseparable.
However, Aria didn\'t know if Neo was made of rock or something.
She was even ready to fight her family if Neo proposed marriage.
Who knew that Neo was like a mute who only knew how to sleep?
"This, Dad-" Neo tried to think of a reason.
"What? Are you even a man?!"
"Uh, I forgot?" Neo shook his head and reasoned.
"You even forgot such a thing?" Maximus nearly facepalmed at such a reason.
"Hmm, there are too many things to do every day that I forgot."
Hearing this, Aria just rolled her eyes.
I believe you\'re a ghost!
She was with Neo almost every day, how could she not know how lazy Neo was?
"Alright, don\'t reason any longer, propose quickly!" Maximus waved his hand.
"As ordered, Father!" Neo nodded resolutely and turned toward Aria.
"Stupid brother, you can\'t be that straightforward; you need to be romantic." Max quickly knocked his head.
"Oh? Romantic?" Neo looked at his brother dazedly.
"That\'s right, like a surprise or something; at least you need to be prepared." Max guided like a sage.
Meanwhile, Aria, who was already preparing to agree to Neo, was dumbfounded again.
What the heck?
What surprise do you need?
If not for a bit of decency, she would already drag Neo to her house.
Maximus, who was watching the whole ordeal, just sighed.
If not for scaring Aria, he would have already tied their marriage on the stop.
"By the way, husband, are you staying this time, or are you still going to leave?" Isabella asked.
Although they didn\'t know how Maximus returned, it certainly wasn\'t on the right path.
Otherwise, they would meet in the Arcane continent instead of the Moonlight Empire.
"I won\'t leave until I go to the Abyss Domain," Maximus said resolutely.
"Is that real, husband?" they asked with excitement.
His children also looked at him with anticipation.
"It\'s real," Maximus said confidently.
He was confident that he could make his family advance to Tier 7 whenever he wanted.
Originally, they only had his stored mana that they used in their training.
With it, it was possible to reach Tier 7 within a hundred years.
However, that was too slow.
Maximus could only stay here for a few decades at most.
Otherwise, his disappearance within the abyss would cause problems.
As for the solution to quickly advance to Tier 7, it\'s simple: Crystal Merits.
If it can be used to quickly advance from Tier 7 to Tier 8, then it can also do so from Tier 6 to Tier 7.
In the past, there was such a method because no one has ever brought back Crystal Merits to the Etherium realm.
All of it would be converted into strength once it reached the Etherium realm.
The reason for this was that all the Crystal Merits they got were converted by the Etherium realm\'s World Will.
It had already been marked by the Etherium realm\'s World Will.
Naturally, it can track and use the Crystal Merits at its disposal.
As for why the Etherium realm World Will immediately converted Crystal Merits into strength, Maximus didn\'t know.
Perhaps it was too lazy and didn\'t bother to convert them one by one.
As for the Crystal Merits in Maximus\'s hands, they were all independently converted by him.
Naturally, Maximus can use them however he likes.
Soon after explaining the magic of Crystal Merits to his family, they couldn\'t help but be shocked.
"Is there really such a thing?"
"Dad, you\'re awesome!"
"I wonder how many Crystal Merits we will use to advance."
"It should be a lot; we have Dad\'s cheating cultivation skill and special physique to fill in."
The family chattered as they talked about the Crystal Merits while feeling excited.
After all, if there\'s a shortcut to strength without any drawback, who wouldn\'t be excited?
"Husband, how many Crystal Merits do you have?" Rose asked.
Suddenly, they remembered that their Husband/Father didn\'t tell them how many Crystal Merits he had.
After staying in the abyss for a few decades.
Even with their Husband/Father\'s strength, he should only have a few billion crystal merits with him.
After all, their Husband/Father also has needs and needed to spend money everywhere.
"How about you just try and see how many you need?" Maximus smiled.
What a joke; all his expenses were bartered using the items he bought from the Myriad World Mall.
How can he spend his hard-earned money like that?
Of course, he had to spend the money of other people.
By now, there are over 10,000 trillion Crystal Merits in his storage dimension.
Not only can they strengthen his family, but he can also strengthen his confidants and army.
"Are you ready?" Maximus asked.
"We are ready, Husband!"
"We are ready, Dad!"
Maximus just nodded and spread his domain.
Taking out mountains of Crystal Merits, he moved his hand and began to dissolve them.
Controlling the energy, it began to enter their bodies, strengthening their elemental pathways based on the route of the \'Origin\' cultivation manual.
Looking at his wives, children, grandchildren, and in-laws quietly absorbing the energy, he sighed.
"This will take a little longer..." Maximus muttered helplessly due to his rashness.
He estimated that it would take them a few months before they could fully advance to Tier 7.
He had just returned, and yet he already started to work them up.
Fortunately, there were still Skye and his two grandchildren, Martin and Maya.
"Come here to Grandpa," Maximus waved toward the two.
Martin was only a few days old.
Maya, on the other hand, was only over 7 years old.
They were too young to have such advanced strength.
Although there would be no drawback to using Crystal Merits.
It would deprive them of exploring and experiencing by themselves.
"What happened to them, Grandpa?" Maya asked cutely as she held Martin in her arms.
"They were training," Maximus explained, taking Martin into his lap.
"Oh, training..." Maya pouted.
Among the group, she was the only one still attending school.
The youngest before her; Silvan, Asha, and Lila had long graduated.
"You don\'t like training?" Maximus asked.
"No, I like training, but it\'s boring to train alone," Maya sighed like an adult.
"What\'s wrong? Did your classmates bully you?"
"How could they bully me? My mother would be the first to disagree," Maya said proudly.
"Oh? Your mother is so fierce?"
"My mother is not the only fierce one. Father, uncles, aunties, and even my grandmothers are so fierce."
"Anyone that dares to bully us would be beaten without being able to fight back."
"So f-fierce!" Martin, who was sitting, laughed and repeated with a giggle.
"Hehe, little cousin, you will know when you grow old," Maya said with a little sadness.
"So you had no friends?" Maximus concluded.
"Yes, no one dared to be friends with me, and I don\'t want to be friends with them either; they are too weak."
"My uncles are lucky; they can have super-talented aunties in their grade."
"Now I can only train alone, with fear from my classmates and admiration from the teachers."
"You\'re really unlucky," Maximus nodded in understanding.
Suppressing the whole generation, who can understand this loneliness?
"Don\'t worry, little Maya, you\'ll get used to it one day," Skye chimed in.
As the most talented being in almost every generation, Skye was fully qualified to say this.
"Are you my grandmother?" Maya asked doubtfully.
"That\'s right, I\'m your grandmother, Skye," Skye said proudly.
"So you\'re Grandmother Skye!" Maya said with adoration in her eyes.
She had long heard of this grandmother of hers— the fierce Amazonian of Beast Continent, the most talented beside her grandfather, a training and battle maniac, etc.
Maya grew up listening to her grandmother\'s legends.
"Hehe, come here, my cute granddaughter!" Skye waved her hands and took Maya in her lap.
"Now, can you tell us about the events that happened while we were away?" Skye asked.
"Gladly," Maya said as her eyes lit up.
"Let\'s talk about, Sister Lila."
"Sister Lila\'s beauty can destroy a country and cause chaos wherever she goes."
"According to my father, over a decade ago, Sister Lila caused havoc in the academy."
"What happened?" Skye asked in anticipation.
"It started with Sister Lila being bored and seeing that a lot of pursuers were around her buzzing like flies."
"What do you think Sister Lila did next?"
"What is it?" Maximus asked with a frown.
"Hehe, Sister Lila didn\'t directly reject or deny anyone."
"She directly set a ring for them to fight."
"Sister Lila said that anyone who can stay in the ring for a year can take her on a date."
"That brat!" Maximus gritted his teeth.
"What happened afterward?" Skye asked as if watching a drama.
"Naturally, a whole line of people came into the ring."
"On the first day, there were over a hundred thousand who fought in the ring, hoping to take the chance."
"Unfortunately, until now, there hasn\'t been even one person who can stay in the ring for a day."
"How is that possible?"
"There are so many strong and talented people in the institute."
"Is there no one strong enough attracted to your cousin?" Skye asked doubtfully.
"Hehe, Grandmother, there are indeed a lot of strong contenders."
"Unfortunately, my uncles beat them all into submission before they can even go into the ring."
"Hahaha, what an ingenious method," Skye laughed.
"It\'s indeed my son..." Maximus thought proudly.
