Anthony’s figure appeared within his room within the Null Family Estate; the moment he appeared, he collapsed face-first upon his bed with a heavy sigh, as though taking a rest after hanging around for eleven days straight without pause or rest, his body sinking slightly into the softness of the mattress as though it welcomed him back.

With their Mana Rank, hanging out for eleven days without rest or pause was simply too trivial and wasn’t worth mentioning. The exhaustion Anthony felt was simply mental, as he only needed some alone time at the moment and he would be fine, his mind merely seeking a moment of silence and stillness to reset itself from constant interaction.

He rolled onto his back as he stared at the ceiling in silence, a smile appearing on his lips as though he had fallen in love all over again. But what was making him smile was simple, the quality time he had spent hanging around, moments that seemed insignificant on the surface yet carried a depth he could not easily describe.

In his past life on Earth, where would he have found time between jobs, school, and personal study to even hang out with friends... besides, even if he had time to hang out, he didn’t have friends to hang out with, making such experiences nothing more than distant fantasies he never thought he would live through.

’Sigh... My life is simply too perfect,’ Anthony thought to himself, appreciating every second of his existence, as his own life seemed to be the perfect meaning of reincarnation.

There was no great secret behind his reincarnation he needed to uncover, no huge ploy, no mission behind his reincarnation like saving a dying world or galaxy or whatever, no system missions that forced him to do things, or face a death penalty upon failing the system; Anthony had always hated those types of systems, forcing people to do what they didn’t want to do, yet now that he was free from such constraints, he found a strange satisfaction in the simplicity.

His life was simply free of all that, devoid of unnecessary burdens or artificial pressures. Anthony couldn’t have imagined that someone or some people might actually ask for a system that gave missions within their five-minute wish-granting duration if ??? granted them the same opportunity, a thought that felt almost absurd to him now.

Anthony shook his head, choosing to forget about those thoughts, his mind shifting to his and Vega’s wedding. Although Anthony had said he didn’t have the wedding date, it didn’t stop him from fantasizing about it, him holding Vega’s hand as they walked down the aisle, or stairs or whatever, the setting itself unimportant compared to the presence beside him.

’Then we will have tiny Anthonys and Vegas running around,’ he mused to himself as he remained in thought, his imagination beginning to paint vivid images that felt almost real within his mind.

[Ding]

[??? says your thoughts are moving in the right direction, all that remains is to stop thinking about it and to act on it like a real man]

Anthony read the message and expertly ignored ???, the man was simply pushing his grandchildren agenda once again without rest, his persistence almost amusing at this point.

’Since the both of us are extremely handsome and beautiful, who knows how dangerously cute our children will be with the combination of our face cards,’ Anthony thought to himself, as it seemed as though he had already given birth to children that might end up being more handsome and beautiful than him, a ridiculous yet entertaining thought.

’They will also be ridiculously talented,’ his thoughts continued; after all, his talent and Vega’s talent were also ridiculous in every sense of the word, something that would undoubtedly reflect in their offspring.

’Also, knowing ???, granting my children talents that match mine doesn’t seem far-fetched,’ Anthony mused as he imagined his talented little babies, each one possibly carrying abilities beyond normal comprehension.

Which parent or parents wouldn’t love to give birth to talented kids? The answer was none, as such a desire seemed almost universal.

Anthony could already imagine his children running around, calling him daddy with their innocent faces and eyes, and their cute, immature voices, their laughter echoing within a home filled with warmth.

Although Anthony was fantasizing about all these, he wasn’t worried that reality wouldn’t match his expectations... reality dared not stray far away or even deviate by even a little margin from his thoughts, such was the quiet confidence he carried within himself.

’Mom, Dad, Grandma, and Grandpa will be extremely pleased,’ Anthony thought to himself, already imagining their reactions filled with satisfaction and pride.

’Speaking of Mom and Dad, I should inform the Supreme Monarchs about Tiara and Bryan, they will be within the same Military Alpha Base and on the same team until they no longer want to be together,’ Anthony thought to himself, already planning on pulling some strings for his friends, ensuring their comfort within the system.

Although the Military wasn’t something one could influence, Anthony could with his absolute power, but at the end of the day, he wouldn’t interfere too much, and would only do things like what he was about to do for his friends, something that wouldn’t affect the Military in any way, maintaining a balance between authority and restraint.

Anthony’s thoughts couldn’t help but shift towards the fallen Supreme Monarch, the Chakram of the End, who had died protecting the Military Base and the soldiers within, her final moments echoing faintly within his mind.

’Should I resurrect her?’ Anthony thought to himself within the silence of his own room, the idea neither strange nor impossible to him.

’I will ask the system later,’ Anthony concluded, choosing not to act immediately; after all, some souls wished to remain dead and not live through life again, and forcing such a return could be more cruel than kind.

’Anyway, everyone will soon be out of their seclusion, I wonder what power levels I will get to see,’ Anthony thought to himself, excited to the core as a smile appeared on his lips, anticipation building quietly within him.

’Dad, Mom, Grandpa, and Grandma should also be done soon, I need to give them the blood before I vanish,’ Anthony thought to himself, mentally noting the task as something important.

’I wonder if Father will be able to match the Twelve-Winged Angel that came looking for him after he absorbs the drop of blood I give them,’ Anthony thought to himself, as that was a battle he would love to watch... but alas, he couldn’t know who was fighting whom, leaving only speculation behind.

’I should return to the Military Base soon,’ Anthony thought to himself, his Universal Clothing artefact changing into something light as he prepared to sleep, as though he owed no one in the world anything, his responsibilities momentarily set aside.

With that, his eyes snapped shut as the dream realm claimed his consciousness, pulling him gently into its silent embrace, his breathing gradually evening out as the weight of wakefulness faded away, leaving behind only the quiet rhythm of rest.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: Before you curse this author to the death, I only decided to type one Chapter today while enjoying and relaxing for the rest of the day, since it’s basically the end of the month and I’ve been typing bulk Chapters back to back without rest.

So, another announcement: the Bonus Chapter feature is back online. On my Discord server, I have a Ko-fi there; each $100 donation gains readers two bonus Chapters. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

And as for those who want to stick to Super Gifts and don’t want to do Ko-fi, a Magic Castle is one bonus Chapter, a Spacecraft is two bonus Chapters, and a Golden Gachapon is three bonus Chapters. This will begin immediately after Webnovel’s monthly rest, which is in a few hours.

I only stopped the Bonus Chapter feature for the month of April because of the bulk Chapters I was typing daily. I didn’t want to collect readers’ money and not meet up, don’t want to be accused of it, best to just halt it at the time, I hope y’all can understand.

And again, thank you for all the support and love I received this month. Love y’all to the moon and back.
