What a glorious slaughter this has been!

  Eirik couldn't help but feel a rush of exhilaration. But even in the heat of victory, a small pang of regret gnawed at him—he hadn't fully unlocked the full potential of the Eye of Divine Insight in the game.

  Thanks to the assistance of special items, he could wield its power for a mere twelve hours. After that, his combat effectiveness would plummet. He needed to focus on building his future—nurturing his wife and raising their son!

  Especially Pixie, his wife. She was wealthy and charming, but her talent was no match for Elvynna’s.

  Turning her into an empress would be no easy feat.

  The early steps would be manageable, thanks to their abundant resources. With enough wealth, he could raise a little prodigy. But sooner or later, her limitations would become clear. Money alone wouldn't solve everything, and that would be their real challenge.

  “Miss, your makeup is ready!” The young maid announced respectfully, standing by Pixie, who was about to head out.

  “Huh? Already done? That was fast!” Pixie muttered, still seated in her chair, frozen in place.

  “Fast?” The maid blinked, clearly confused. Pixie had always been impatient, often complaining about how slow the process was. What was going on today?

  But Pixie wasn’t in any rush to leave. Instead, she was fully engrossed in analyzing the spoils from her husband’s latest battle. At the top of the list was the emperor's envoy. As a close confidant to the emperor, the wealth stored in his belongings was staggering.

  Elemental Stones, magical artifacts, and a wealth of precious magical tomes—there was no shortage of riches. Frankly, the total assets of the Becker family didn’t even amount to a tenth of what this imperial lackey had. They had struck gold!

  Then there were the treasures from other masters in Aelsryel. Though they paled in comparison to the envoy's haul, when pooled together, they still formed a sizable fortune.

  “So many Elemental Stones and magical items…” Pixie marveled, wide-eyed.

  As the legitimate daughter of the Ravenshadow family, she had seen her fair share of wealth. But the numbers she was calculating now were enough to leave her stunned.

  Yet despite the temptation, Pixie refrained from touching even a single Elemental Stone. She knew that these spoils were Eirik’s hard-won prize—he was the one who should decide how they were used.

  Eirik, after a moment of thought, dismissed the idea.

  These Elemental Stones and magical items couldn’t be easily converted into cash—after all, they were just numbers on a screen. What good would they do him?

  Though he had just single-handedly decimated the battlefield, Eirik was fully aware that his role was that of a support character!

  Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

  What would a support need with so much wealth?

  His true objective was to elevate Pixie, transforming her into the strongest queen the world had ever seen! Only then would he earn more system rewards and grow stronger in the real world.

  Without hesitation, he waved his hand and transferred the entire Becker family fortune to Pixie, letting her decide how to spend it.

  “You’re giving me the family finances?!” Pixie’s voice was full of surprise and joy.

  With a treasure trove of Elemental Stones and magical items now in her possession, even though this was just a simulation, it felt absolutely exhilarating.

  Well... I can't just go wild with it. I should start by rewarding merit! First, I’ll give the best treasures to my husband, save some for our son, and then distribute the rest among the family. After all, they’ve all worked hard and deserve their share.

  Even though the rest of the family hadn’t directly participated in the battle, many had worked the magic arrays, guarding their mountain retreat, and preventing the fallout from devastating their Elemental-rich sanctuary. That, too, counted as contribution!

  As Pixie watched the family elders express their gratitude, a delighted laugh escaped her. This was the sweet joy of flaunting wealth!

  With the crisis involving the emperor's envoy resolved, the Becker family entered a rapid phase of growth. Elemental Stones flowed freely within the family, and everyone’s strength was increasing at an extraordinary pace.

  Pixie shot from Practitioner Level 9 to Savant in the blink of an eye.

  Elvynna was dumbfounded. She had expected Pixie to falter, to wither away. But instead, Pixie had broken through to Savant so suddenly?!

  Her entire strategy had been based on outlasting Pixie—who could only live a few hundred years—using her own long lifespan to her advantage. But now Pixie had reached Savant.

  Wasn’t that plan utterly shattered now?

  “Junior Sister, with your aptitude, you shouldn’t have been able to break through to Savant so quickly!” Elvynna asked, visibly restless.

  Unable to sit still, she opted for a private message, rather than airing her surprise in public.

  “Hahaha, senpai, you wouldn’t know!” Pixie beamed with pride. “I couldn’t have done it alone—there was no way! But my husband broke through first!”

  “He broke through?” Elvynna was taken aback.

  Eirik had become a Savant?

  Before, when she and Eirik had played together, he had never reached the Savant level before meeting his end. But now, he had achieved that level alongside Junior Sister.

  Elvynna felt a pang of jealousy.

  “After becoming a Savant, my husband’s Elemental Absorption ability evolved and transformed into a world-rule-level aura.”

  Evolved and transformed?

  Elvynna was stunned.

  She had known that by helping Eirik grow stronger, his golden attributes could be enhanced. The Elemental Absorption ability she had raised to +5 had become exponentially more powerful than before.

  But now, it was capable of evolution?

  She quickly checked Eirik’s stats.

  To her shock, Eirik now had three golden attributes.

  The aura transformed from Elemental Absorption stood out particularly, drawing her eyes again and again.

  【World Rule Aura (Golden): As a chosen of the world’s rules, the elements of nature flow to him as rivers to the sea. Anyone near him will receive unimaginable benefits.】

  Previously, Eirik’s Elemental Absorption simply drew in elemental power. Now, it was described as bestowing "unimaginable benefits" to those nearby.

  And it was precisely this power that had enabled Pixie to break through her own limitations and level up to Savant at an astonishing pace!

  “Hahaha, Elvynna, my dear sister, you were totally wasting Eirik! You had no idea how to use him! A talent like his, with the World Rule Aura—how could you not unlock it for him?” Pixie feigned a sigh.

  “Oh, senpai, see? I understand him so much better! With such a golden asset in your hands, you utterly squandered it. But now, with my guidance, he shines brighter than ever!

  And as for those other girls eyeing my husband? Don’t even bother. It’s pointless. I, Pixie, am his perfect match.”

  Pixie looked down at the golden card in her hands, now glowing with two newly unlocked golden attributes. Though one, Eye of Divine Insight, had appeared like a fleeting flower, vanishing after it bloomed…

  Can any of you do that?
