…
Midnight.
Sally, transformed into a little white mouse, lay on the plush carpet basking in the moonlight.
Several people arrived at the entrance of the Sky Domain Garden, led by Lin Xuexue.
But as soon as she used Thunder Element Arcane Arts to attack the Barrier outside the door, the hotel staff appeared, with Daniel personally leading the team.
“Using innate Elemental Power inside the hotel is prohibited. You are aware of the rules and still violated them; the offense is hereby escalated,” Daniel said, holding a rope that emitted a faint golden light. “Please come with us to the Holy War Committee.”
Lin Xuexue hadn’t expected Daniel to arrive so quickly.
She glared at the door of the Sky Domain Garden, realizing her scheme had been in vain.

“I have Holy Water for exemption.”
“Even with Holy Water, you must visit the Committee, who will then reclaim it.”
“…Hmph!” Lin Xuexue huffed reluctantly and walked away.
Standing at the entrance, Daniel said respectfully, “I deeply apologize for disturbing the honored guest.”
“Last time, they also got off penalty-free using Holy Water, right?” Suddenly, Sally understood why the hotel hadn’t pursued Lena’s squad for responsibility.
“Yes, honored guest,” Daniel replied.
“Hmm, go about your business,” she said.
“Of course, honored guest. Please continue to rest undisturbed.”
Upon leaving, Daniel’s expression was genuinely sour. Just because someone had Holy Water meant they could act recklessly in his hotel? This time, a severe penalty was a must; otherwise, if other squads followed suit, his role as manager would be over.
Concerning his livelihood, Daniel was exceedingly cautious, strongly urging the Holy War Committee to impose a harsher penalty on Lin Xuexue’s squad.
In the end, the Holy War Committee not only reclaimed Lin Xuexue’s Holy Water but also fined her twenty million Holy War Points.
Lin Xuexue’s squad, which had been ranked second, plummeted to third place. The twenty million points deducted were all awarded to Sally.
Sally looked at her wrist with over one hundred million points and laughed until her stomach hurt.
Now, she was firmly sitting on the throne of first place.
Lena later came to seek her out a few times, but was rebuffed each time, eventually giving up on making a nuisance of herself.
Lin Xuexue repeatedly taunted and blustered at the entrance, but Sally paid her no mind. Let her shout—Sally wasn’t coming out.
The art of playing it safe, one word—steady.
Xiaomei finished upgrading, her voice becoming even sweeter and even acquired a hint of a lisp, which caused Sally to shudder. It wasn’t until she firmly requested Xiaomei change back to her original voice did it become pleasing to the ears again.
[Host, the third phase of the Holy War has ended. Your Holy War Points total 100,932,588. Safely retired three males and one cub. The female advances, ranked first! Fantastic!] Xiaomei was very happy.
[Hmm, a steady first place. Who are third and second then?]
[Third place is the North Realm 2345 squad, female Lin Xuexue, with Holy War Points totaling 30,284,671. Four deaths, two survivals, one male safely retired, no cubs, female advances.
Second place is the Shupa 0009 squad, female Lena Baines, with Holy War Points totaling 38,090,006. Five deaths, one survival, no retirements, no cubs, female advances.]
[Wait, you said second place is Lena Baines… it couldn’t be who I’m thinking of, could it?]
[Which one is the host thinking of?]
[Red Fox?]
[Yes, host, Lena Baines, her beast form is a Three-tailed Red Fox, innate Heaven Rank talent, Secret Technique of the Water Element. A special reminder: the three tails of a Three-tailed Red Fox amount to three lives.]
[Oh? How many does she have left now?]
[Just one. The two lost, one was to Evil Beasts during the second phase in Shupa, and the other in the third phase in a life-for-life fight, where she killed Tong Nanxi.]
[Heh, truly a crafty fox.]
[Host, are you interested in the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox? The Nine-tailed Celestial Fox is of Holy Beast-grade.]
[… Xiaomei, I’ve just given birth.” Sally did not consider having more children at all.]
Xiaomei didn’t care; she continued to diligently collect Holy Beast-grade Beast Husband candidates for Sally. [How about the Holy Monarch of the Angel Clan, host? Do you want him?]
[I want to kill him, not have his children! Xiaomei, you must be joking.] Sally, recalling that the Holy Monarch was the instigator of this Holy War, felt an urge to take up a sword and confront him.
[The Holy Monarch was just replaced recently.] Xiaomei dropped a bombshell!
Sally: [… What? A coup!]
…
On a calm night, Sally stood atop the highest level of the Cleansing Sanctuary, gazing at the Continental Transmission Light Arrays in the sky, like shooting stars, sending surviving females to other continents.
Daniel came over with a glass of red wine, “Congratulations to Squad 9908 for taking first place this time.”
Turning to look at him, Sally heard Xiaomei’s reminder [He is Frans, also the new Holy Monarch.]
“… Thank you.” Sally reached out, accepted the glass of wine, and didn’t reveal Frans’s disguise.
“Will there be a reward of Fertility Points for being chosen as the Holy Mother?” Sally asked.
‘Daniel’ replied, “Yes, but not as many as the points during the war period, just one million.”
“Hmm, anything else?”
“How about the chance to have children with the Holy Monarch, does that count?”
“No.” Sally flatly rejected.
Sure enough, ‘Daniel’ showed a flash of disappointment when Sally couldn’t see it.
“The Holy Monarch always gets what he wants.”
“This is the second time I’ve heard that phrase. The first time I heard it, I cared quite a bit. Now…” Sally turned back to look at him.
‘Daniel’ asked, “What about now?”
“To not get what one wants and to resort to special means is indeed pitiful.” Sally downed the wine in one gulp and returned the glass to him, “You should get some rest early, Daniel.”
Since he had come, Sally couldn’t go back to the Sky Domain Garden, so she returned the wing-shaped key to him, “The key to the Sky Domain Garden, returning it to its rightful owner.”
‘Daniel’ paused before taking the key and bowed slightly, “Good night.”
Sally smiled slightly, “Good night.”
‘Daniel’ watched her leave, fondling the key in his hand, and teleported back to the Sky Domain Garden.
Although the furnishings in the room were almost the same as when he left, the air was now filled with a sweet and warm scent, her lingering fragrance.
The corners of his mouth gradually revealed a faint smile.
What if it’s pitiful?
Not obtaining it is even more pitiful!
…
The next day, three Continental Transmission Light Arrays left the Cleansing Sanctuary Hotel.
Daniel, watching the departing light arrays, clapped his hands to the many staff members behind him, including Manager Wan and Chief Chef Feng, announcing, “We should also return to the Holy City now. I declare—the work here is perfectly completed! Everyone is rewarded with a year’s salary!”
“Thank you, Manager.” Everyone’s faces bloomed with joy.
The real Holy Capital Continent is much bigger than the fake Holy Capital Continent, with air traffic routes even in the sky, bustling with voices everywhere, fresh flowers and green trees, high bridges and broad streets, an era of prosperity.
The backyard of the Holy War Committee.
Sally was sitting on a bench in the garden, holding a blooming red rose, lightly smelling its richness and enchantment.
A woman with Fox Clan ears approached and stopped before her, calling out flirtatiously, “Hello, Sister Sally.”>
