Chapter 353 Honeymoon Trip
"How is it, fellow Maximus? Could I have your permission to have your daughter as an apprentice?"
Seeing Goldfiend push his guts even further, Maximus frowned.
"No, the children of I, Maximus, didn't need anyone to teach them what to do."
"Besides, you are just a mere Apex Sovereign. What else can you teach my daughter?"
"This—" Hearing the words from Maximus, Goldfiend grew speechless.
What a mere Apex Sovereign?
This is already the peak power of the world.
Countless people died on the way to climb here.
Reaching tier 9 is not something one could achieve with just resources.
One needed talent, time, and resources.
Just one missing, and you are doomed to only live a few epochs.
Maximus, a tier 8 brat, dared to mock that he was only an Apex Sovereign?
How dare he?!
If not for the mysterious backer of Maximus, how dare a mere emperor talk to him like this?
Calming down, he just smiled at Maximus' ridicule.
"It seems that I'm not really destined to have an apprentice," Goldfiend said.
However, deep inside, he was hatching some plot to abduct that little girl to be his apprentice.
Time is long; that little girl would surely reach the apex, living an eternal life.
As for Maximus? His limit is stuck at tier 8.
This is not because of the limitation of talent, time, and resources but simply because it's an impossible task.
In the past, all the Holy Emperors had the peak talent, various life-extending treasures, and the resources of a continent.
Yet, no matter what they did, their life was exhausted, not even having a glimpse of what was at the peak.
Goldfiend just needed to be patient, and he would surely pocket that lucky charm apprentice.
...
After the discussion broke down, Goldfiend went back to the Arcane Continent.
Naturally, the proposed cooperation didn't continue.
However, despite this, Maximus just sneered.
He didn't lack money that he would sell his daughter for resources.
With the cooperation with the previous Apex Sovereigns, merits would soon come rolling in.
After a few tens or hundreds of years, he could buy all he wanted in the Merits Hall.
As for cooperation like the establishment of EGCC, monetary investment, and such.
It was even more useless.
The Moonlight Empire is not yet ready for such a high-quality influx.
He also didn't lack this little money to invest in the empire.
Sorting his thoughts, Maximus readied for him and his wife's year-long honeymoon.
Maximus would think about all these problems later after their trip.
...
Soon after the wedding, Maximus and his wives left the Curse Continent and arrived at the Arcane Continent.
Their first destination was to see the most prosperous continent in the Etherium realm.
Although they had been living here for over a century, they had only visited a few places.
Most of the time, they were in the Origin Domain.
Their first stop was the Gourmet Heaven Domain, a domain famous for it's delicious food.
As soon as Maximus and his wives landed, they noticed a film enveloping them.
"Is this a protective measure to keep this place from being contaminated?" Erica murmured with interest.
"It seems so; what a unique idea," Maximus nodded, sensing various laws mixed in the film.
With interest, Maximus studied the film while they explored the domain.
Unlike the food city in the Moonlight Empire, the Gourmet Heaven Domain isn't entirely made out of food.
The land is still the land, and the city is still the city.
However, the culinary atmosphere of the city is overwhelming.
Every citizen is an experienced cook with their noteworthy ancestral recipe.
This is also why the name of the domain is Gourmet Heaven; it's not the food that made it famous but its cooks.
The ingredients are also unique, born in unique artificial environments that enhance their deliciousness.
From bizarre plants to unique animals, there were even islands and structures made entirely out of food.
Everything is so delicious that Maximus and his wives overstayed for a few months.
Disrupting their schedule, Maximus decided to extend their honeymoon trip from one year to three years.
Halfway through their trip, Lilith also sneaked in.
Escaping the clutches of her evil sister, Lilith joined them on their honeymoon trip.
Fortunately, his wives were quite generous, treating Lilith as already part of them.
Furthermore, having one more person would make things more lively.
After a year, they visited some famous places in the Arcane Continent.
After witnessing all these attractions, Maximus could only sigh at the foundation of the Arcane Continent.
The Curse Continent not only lacked mana and resources but also unique features.
The way things were being built, Maximus was barely imitating the prosperity of the Arcane Continent.
Continuing their journey, they landed on the Beast Continent, the moving continent of the Etherium Realm.
Unlike the gorgeous architecture and artificial attractions of the Arcane Continent, the Beast Continent was like a primitive world.
Towering trees, endless lakes, sky-high waterfalls—entering the Beast Continent was like entering a new world.
Furthermore, with just a scan of his consciousness, Maximus saw many high-tier resources, more than most of the land in the Arcane Continent.
"Where should we go, Skye?"
Their entry to the Beast Continent was not official.
Skye just took them to an ancient teleportation array she had set up previously.
Although it was easy to get a visa to visit the Beast Continent, one would be under supervision.
Furthermore, most places couldn't be visited; one can only go through designated places created for visitors.
However, what's the fun of that?
They visited the Beast Continent to see its real culture and magnificence.
Taking out a tier 9 treasure, they quickly disguised themselves as aboriginals of the continent.
Seeing his wives with beast parts on their bodies, he couldn't help but fall into a daze.
"Beautiful~"
Although they are also beautiful in their neutral form, having some special accessories from time to time is a unique experience.
Hearing his praise, they nodded in satisfaction.
It seemed that a few days of choosing their disguises was worth it.
With Skye as a guide, they quickly explored the continent, seeing all kinds of scenery.
Unlike on the Arcane Continent, where they were mostly in the cities, Maximus and his wives were mostly camping.
To add to the thrill, they even suppressed their strength to that of mortals.
Such a new experience is quite unique that even the harsh environment from time to time was also like a game.
They also met beastman tribes flourishing, giving them insights.
Especially Maximus, planning how to take these beastmen as his people.
After a year of adventuring in the wild and beautiful primitive continent, Maximus and his wives left in satisfaction.
Their next destination was the Divine Continent.
This time, Maximus had a little trouble going through the formalities.
As the Holy Emperor of the Curse Continent, Maximus's identity is not so simple.
Furthermore, a few Gods had grudges against him.
If taken easily, it may cause some problems in the Divine Continent.
Fortunately, there is Lilith.
Contacting his father, Fealan, getting a pass in the Divine Continent was easy.
Having obtained the pass, they visited the most prosperous domain in the Divine Continent: the God Domain.
Upon entering the God Domain, they witnessed the true meaning of holiness.
Looking around, they sensed the heavy solemnness and devotion of the people around.
Even the gods dared not to be rampant.
This is the God Domain, the territory of their Supreme God, the Gods of Gods.
Besides the solemnness, the place is also quite prosperous.
Everything one would want is in this land: wealth, power, status, as long as they will it and are sincere enough, the God Domain would grant them their wishes.
This is also why this land is known as the Wishing Domain.
With enough prayers and sincerity, everything would be at your fingertips.
Seeing such an interesting phenomenon, Maximus couldn't help but study it.
This is such an efficient way of collecting high-quality faith.
Maximus thought of incorporating it to collect more Amalgamation of Will.
Faith and Amalgamation of Will have the same source only different in forms.
They both come from the belief and will of the people, which is produced by the spirit.
If Maximus could implement similar practices in the Curse Continent, the Amalgamation of Will he got would skyrocket again.
While studying the phenomenon, Maximus and his wives played around the God Domain wantonly.
Contrary to other people's thinking, the God Domain is not so strict.
Every entertainment possible is in this land.
God Domain even has the largest casino in the Etherium Realm.
Often some Apex Sovereigns and Gods went bankrupt in this place.
Many also won, creating a foundation for their family to come.
Splurging, Maximus and his wives won and lost some money.
The place was really a heaven for gamblers.
Besides a large amount of money flowing, the place also prevented any kind of cheating.
No matter if it was the use of law or other treasures, it was useless.
Fortunately, the system lived up to expectations, so he didn't lose face in front of his wives.
