Roa glanced at the entire room. The room was quite clean, unlike the time when Roxy lived in the Shirone Kingdom.
Roa didn't stay in the room for long. Roxy wasn't in the room right now, and there was no point in being alone.
However, just as Roa was about to leave the room, the door was pushed open, and a young maid walked in.
The maid didn't seem to expect anyone to be in the room. Her hand holding the white rag paused slightly, and she showed a surprised expression.
However, Roa didn't recognize the maid in front of him at all.
However, Roa not recognizing her didn't mean that she didn't recognize Roa.
After a little surprise, she quickly bowed and said, "Lord Roa, is there anything you need?"
Roa shook his head slightly, looking at her and curiously examining the girl in front of him.
She naturally had some beauty. How could someone who could serve as a maid in the Royal palace not have some beauty?
A slight blush appeared on the maid's cheeks, and she lowered her head slightly to avoid Roa seeing her like this.
The maid was a very shrewd person. Although Roa said that he didn't need her help, she still mustered up the courage to ask, "Should I call Miss Roxy over?"
Roa was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know where Roxy is?"
"I saw Miss Roxy at the corner just now. She should still be there at this time," the maid said with a slight smile.
However, Roa still didn't let the maid call Roxy over. He still decided to find her himself.
Logically speaking, the Royal palace was so big, and finding someone in such a large palace would be quite time-consuming and laborious. But after returning to this world after a long time, he suddenly became interested and wanted to walk around the Royal palace.
At this moment, the Asura Kingdom had really become Roa's back garden.
Roa used his strength to suppress the crowd, directly kneeling the Asura Kingdom's guardian, the Water God, killing a large group of nobles, and with a single sentence of "whoever agrees, who opposes," he directly put Ariel Anemoi Asura on the throne. No one in the entire kingdom dared to say a word.
If it was just like this, it would be fine. After all, personal strength is only temporary. Don't look at how these nobles didn't dare to fart when Roa was around, but they definitely had small actions in private, preparing to wait for Roa to leave before launching an attack.
Then Roa did leave, but this time he actually brought the entire Holy Land of Swords over. Not only that, but he even invited the legendary Dragon God over. For a time, the Asura Kingdom gathered two of the world's great powers and one former great power.
The current Sword God, the former Sword God, and the Dragon God who was ranked second on the former great power list (now Roa is second).
This lineup was truly despairing.
Great powers weren't like cabbages. In fact, every great power had the means to easily destroy a country.
In this era, personal combat power could really reach the level of being able to fight an entire country alone.
And at this moment, three such guys had appeared in the Asura Kingdom, which almost drowned those nobles who still had small thoughts.
The great powers, who hadn't seen each other for a year, the top powerhouses in this world, would actually gather together. Not to mention them, even the Dragon God Orsted or the Sword God Gal himself couldn't have imagined it.
With Roa as the link, this grand scene was created.
The current situation was very clear. Whether it was the nobles of Asura or the forces of neighboring countries, they all felt frightened, fearing that Roa would be full and have nothing to do and randomly choose a country to start a war. If that were the case, there was no country in this world that could withstand Roa's crusade.
Therefore, the nobles were as honest as they could be. If Roa said to go east, they would never dare to go west. No one dared to disobey Roa's wishes. This was the benefit of having strength that was strong to a certain extent, which could save Roa a lot of trouble.
Roa walked around the Royal palace, and almost everyone who saw Roa hurriedly saluted, with expressions of longing or fear on their faces.
Roa just responded casually, and according to the memory in his mind, he began to look for people one by one.
Arriving at a living room, Roa stopped and poked his head in to take a look.
Roa saw Paul sitting in the main seat at a glance. He was lazily lying on the sofa in the center, and in front of him was a girl tugging at his sleeve. The girl had the same hair color as Paul and was wearing a beige dress. She had two braids, and because she was facing away from Roa, Roa couldn't see her appearance clearly.
However, Roa didn't need to see clearly to guess that this little girl must be Norn.
Speaking of which, how old was Norn now?
She looked like she had grown up a lot. It was really a bit emotional.
Roa stood at the door and watched for a while. Paul finally couldn't resist Norn's entreaties and had no choice but to lower his head, his expression suggesting that he had agreed to something quite troublesome.
It was at this moment that a voice came from behind Roa.
"Aren't you going to come in and sit down, Roa?"
This was a somewhat tired but joyful female voice.
Roa turned around and saw a woman with long brown hair, green eyes, a dignified appearance, and the same temperament as the 'girl' from back then. And by her side was a girl with red hair, wearing a cute maid outfit on her head. Who else could it be but Aisha?
The small maid outfit had long been upgraded. The quality of the Royal palace maid outfits was not ordinary. The fabric used for this custom-made outfit was also excellent. Coupled with Aisha's small face, it looked particularly pleasing to the eye.
"Then let's go in and sit down, um, Mother."
Roa smiled and gave Zenith a hug.
Aisha looked at the two hugging and then looked at Norn, who was sitting in Paul's arms in the center. After thinking about it, she tugged at Roa's pants.
Roa turned around and looked down, and found Aisha looking at him expectantly, raising her hands high at the same time. Maybe it was just his imagination, but Roa always felt that Aisha seemed to have gained a little weight, and her cheeks looked round. Roa reached out and pinched them, and a wonderful feeling lingered in his heart.
Aisha smiled and leaned in front of Roa, whispering, "Brother, long time no see."
"Long time no see? Didn't we just see each other not long ago?"
Speaking of this, Aisha instantly puffed up her face and said unhappily, "How dare you say that, Brother? You haven't played with Aisha for a long time."
"Isn't it because I have something to do?" Roa reached out and stroked the girl's forehead. Aisha lowered her head, feeling Roa's caress shyly.
The conversation between the two naturally attracted the attention of Paul and Norn, who were sitting in the middle. The two looked at the door and saw the three of them crowded there.
Seeing his eldest son again, Paul was naturally very happy.
However, after being happy, his expression became a little unhappy again. He put on a straight face, wanting to show the prestige of a father, but looking at Roa's slightly familiar but more unfamiliar face, he couldn't put on this majestic posture no matter how hard he tried.
Paul waved his hand, pointed to the chair in front of him, and said with a helpless expression.
"Since you're here, then come in. What's it like standing at the door? Really."
His voice was slightly helpless, but the concern in his words was overflowing.
Roa hugged Aisha in his arms, and Zenith followed behind Roa. The three of them came to the hall together. Roa sat opposite Paul, and Zenith sat next to Paul.
Roa looked around and confirmed that there was no figure of Rudeus before saying, "Where's Rudeus? Where did that guy go?"
Maybe it was just his imagination, but when he mentioned Rudeus, Roa always felt that the atmosphere in the room seemed to become heavier.
Paul smiled and just stared at Roa without saying a word.
Roa instantly felt that something was wrong. Don't look at Paul just smiling, but this smile was a warning, a tacit understanding between two men.
Sure enough, as soon as Roa mentioned Rudeus, Zenith's expression became very bad.
Zenith looked serious, and she said in an almost reproachful tone, "Rudeus, that guy has been getting very close to that girl named Isolte lately."
Roa didn't react for a moment, and he said strangely, "Shouldn't that be nothing?"
"What's wrong? Roa, how can a boy have two wives?"
Upon hearing this, Roa's expression instantly changed. He looked at Paul again, who had already turned his head away, his body trembling.
Needless to say, Roa knew that Paul was holding back laughter.
Zenith appeared to be talking about Rudeus on the surface, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zenith was reminding him.
As a Millis believer, Zenith adheres to strict religious laws, the most important of which is monogamy.
Roa had brought almost all of his wives with him this time, which was like revealing his hand all at once.
Roa had been hiding it all along to avoid trouble. Only Mitsuri had a more obvious relationship with Roa on the surface. As for Roxy, they subconsciously thought that the two were just teacher-student relationships.
After all, they had a very good relationship when they were young, so this explanation was completely plausible.
However, after spending time together recently, Zenith keenly noticed something was wrong.
Their relationship was far from that of teacher and student. The love they showed for Roa was almost visible to the naked eye.
If it were just the two of them, that would be fine, but more importantly, Zenith also discovered that Roa seemed to be playing a "raising" game.
Recently, she was always surrounded by a red-haired girl who constantly asked about Roa's whereabouts. Two out of every three sentences she spoke were about Roa, and from the things she revealed, Zenith could easily tell that Roa had ulterior motives, keeping the relationship in a very ambiguous state.
For a moment, Zenith didn't know what to say.
As a devout Millis believer, she still hoped that her children would follow this doctrine, but seeing the trend, Roa clearly didn't intend to comply, which naturally made Zenith, as a mother, feel quite displeased.
So, she wanted to take this opportunity to knock Roa into shape, which is why she said those words.
In her opinion, if Roa, as the eldest brother, couldn't abide by the Millis doctrine, then the younger siblings would definitely follow suit, making it too much trouble to manage them.
However, that was just what Zenith thought. Roa would definitely not agree.
He had come to another world, and if he didn't open a crystal harem, he would be letting himself down.
But seeing Zenith's aggressive appearance, Roa really felt a headache.
Roa had no choice but to agree with Zenith, pretending to listen attentively.
Paul, who was next to him, gloated. A dignified great power was being reprimanded like this, which was hilarious no matter how you looked at it.
Finally, he couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud.
Roa looked at Paul expressionlessly. Paul still had a smile on his face. He waved his hand, looking embarrassed, and said to Roa, "Sorry, I really couldn't help it, haha."
Roa finally couldn't bear it anymore. Seeing Paul's smug face, he decided to shift the blame.
"Mother, don't just talk about me. Look at Father. I think Father is more worthy of discussion than I am."
Zenith's mouth twitched. Her action of instilling ideas into Roa suddenly stopped. Zenith's gaze became quite unkind. She snorted coldly and said expressionlessly, "As the saying goes, like father, like son. Paul, look at the good example you've set."
Paul's smile immediately froze. He looked at Roa with resentment. Roa pretended not to see it, coughed lightly, and quickly found an excuse to slip away.
"I'm going to find Roxy and Mitsuri first. Cough, you guys talk first."
After Roa finished speaking, he prepared to get up. Zenith just glanced at Roa and didn't stop him.
Aisha, who was in Roa's arms, blinked. She leaned close to Roa's ear and said, "I want to go with Brother."
Roa wanted to refuse sternly, because this time, finding the two of them might involve scenes that children shouldn't see.
But before he could say the words of refusal, Roa compromised under Aisha's pitiful gaze.
Perhaps it was because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, but he felt that Aisha at this moment gave him the illusion that refusing this child would create a sense of guilt.
When Aisha saw that Roa had agreed, a sly smile appeared in her eyes.
Aisha wasn't heavy. Roa let Aisha sit on his arm. Aisha adjusted her posture, found a relatively comfortable position, and her eyes sparkled.
"Then, I'll go first." Roa prepared to say goodbye to the two of them with Aisha.
But Paul suddenly spoke at this moment, "By the way, if you see Rudeus on the way, remember to bring him over. It's rare for us to gather, so let's have a family meeting this time."
