Looking at the group of beautiful and vibrant girls surrounding Lu Jingming, Raiden Mei felt like she was watching a harem anime, and Lu Jingming was like the kind and gentle male protagonist who was loved by many girls.
"Don't mind it. You'll get used to it!"
Jinhsi elegantly wiped her mouth with a napkin. Raiden Mei's cooking skills were indeed excellent, so much so that even Jinhsi praised them. Noticing the unusual look on Raiden Mei's face, Jinhsi sighed softly and smiled.
They were all summoned by Lu Jingming, and they naturally had a good feeling toward him. But this was not the real reason they fell for him. The real reason was that Lu Jingming genuinely treated them well and considered them in every aspect of their lives. After spending a long time together, this good feeling naturally grew. From the small details in their daily lives to every interaction, they could truly feel Lu Jingming's love for them—a love that came from the bottom of his heart and was without any reservations.
Although it seemed that Lu Jingming had a lot of people he liked, which made them complain a little at times, in their hearts, it was not a big deal that they couldn't accept.
Raiden Mei's mouth twitched slightly. She thought to herself, what does "you'll get used to it" mean? However, she didn't dwell on it too much. After all, she had already obtained some basic information about this world through the Holy Grail. She learned that this was a feudal empire society, and in such a social background, this situation was probably normal. After all, this world had emperors and nobles, and polygamy seemed to be a common phenomenon. For example, emperors with a small number of concubines were very rare.
"But speaking of it, Sister Mei and Sister Makoto look so alike! I almost mistook you guys before."
March 7th said with wide, lively eyes in amazement. Remembering the moment she first saw Raiden Mei, the image of Raiden Makoto instantly appeared in her mind, and she almost confused the two.
"That's right. And you both have the last name 'Raiden.' Are you sisters?"
Robin also showed a curious expression. She tilted her head, her heart full of confusion.
"Sister Makoto?" Meng Hongchen keenly caught this new name. An alarm went off in her heart. It was another name she had never heard of!
At the same time, Raiden Mei was also confused. She felt a little strange. Was there someone here who looked a lot like her?
"It's me!" Just as Raiden Mei was confused, a gentle and mature voice sounded. The Stigma of Thunder on Lu Jingming's hand suddenly lit up, emitting a soft light. Then, Raiden Makoto's graceful figure slowly appeared.
"Hiss!" Seeing Raiden Makoto, who was almost ninety percent similar to Raiden Mei, Meng Hongchen couldn't help but gasp. In her eyes, this was undoubtedly a powerful rival, a great enemy! Raiden Mei was already enough to make her extremely vigilant, but she didn't expect another one to appear now. How could this not make her feel double the pressure?
"You?" Raiden Mei also looked at Raiden Makoto with a bewildered expression. The familiar face in front of her was like looking in a mirror. The two not only looked very similar, but their temperaments were also identical, both exuding a gentle aura. The sudden appearance of Raiden Makoto made Raiden Mei wonder for a moment if she had a twin sister or something.
"My name is Raiden Makoto. Besides my sister, I didn't expect there to be someone who looks so much like me."
Raiden Makoto had a gentle smile on her face. She found all of this very interesting. Of course, she knew in her heart that Raiden Mei had nothing to do with her. After all, she and Raiden Ei were twin gods, not humans, and Raiden Mei was clearly a human being.
"What a coincidence!" Raiden Mei's mouth twitched slightly. She sighed to herself. With the same last name, appearance, and temperament, people who didn't know would definitely mistake them for twin sisters.
Lu Jingming found the interesting scene in front of him quite amusing. He couldn't help but fantasize. If Huang Quan, Raiden Ei, and Raiden Shogun were all here, the scene would definitely be even more interesting, and perhaps more wonderful sparks would fly.
At this time, in the Douluo God Realm, an extremely fierce battle was still raging. The duel between the God Kings was extremely destructive, like a terrible storm that affected the entire God Realm. Although the God Realm side had the upper hand in this battle, it was not easy to suppress the Golden Dragon King and Ma Hongjun in a short time.
Even Tang San, who had transformed into the Asura God, was already seeing red. He was attacking Ma Hongjun crazily without any regard for their former brotherhood. Moreover, because Xiao Wu, who was the scabbard of the Asura Sword, suddenly disappeared from the God Realm, it caused a fierce conflict between the two divine positions, the Sea God and the Asura God. The conflicting power of the two divine positions almost made Tang San's body explode.
Fortunately, Tang San had been a god for many years. After a long period of practice and cultivation, he had gradually been able to reconcile the conflicting powers between the two divine positions. If it were when he had just become a god, he would have exploded on the spot without Xiao Wu to carry one of the divine positions.
But even so, Tang San had to use a part of his power to suppress the Sea God's divine position to maintain the balance of power in his body. Therefore, even though his killing intent was strong and he wanted to kill Ma Hongjun to avenge Xiao Wu, he couldn't fully unleash the super-strong attack power of the Asura God. As a result, the threat he posed to the Golden Dragon King and Ma Hongjun was much inferior to that of the God of Destruction.
As the saying goes, "one day in the God Realm is one year in the lower realm." While the God Realm was in the center of the storm of this great battle, time was also quietly flowing in the lower realm. In the blink of an eye, there was only one year left until the 2025 All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition.
This year's competition was to be held by the Sun Moon Empire. However, to Lu Jingming's surprise, the Sun Moon Empire didn't seem to have any intention of giving up on hosting the competition.
In this past year or so, the Holy Grail War had already begun and had been going on for a long time. One after another, many people with great destiny were chosen by the Holy Grail and became Masters, who then summoned Servants. However, the major powers all tacitly chose to hide their Masters and Servants, carefully avoiding being targeted by those who had ill intentions. After all, once they could kill other Servants, they could obtain a part of the negative energy, thus enhancing the strength of their own Servants. This temptation made all parties extra cautious, afraid that their trump cards would be exposed too early.
The Sun Moon Empire was preparing to make a major change to the rules of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition this time, intending to allow the major sects of the Douluo Continent to participate. In the original story, the Sun Moon Empire did this to wipe out the sects of the three major Douluo empires. But now, they obviously had another purpose, which was to lure out the Masters and Servants hidden in the dark.
After all, the Sun Moon Empire was also determined to win the Holy Grail War. The saying "He who obtains the Sea God's position obtains the world" had already spread throughout the entire Douluo Continent. The legendary gods had not appeared on the Douluo Continent for ten thousand years. But everyone knew that once a god descended, it would definitely determine the ownership of the entire continent.
Of course, all of this was based on the premise that everyone still didn't know the unfathomable true strength of Ocean Abyss City.
The other three empires did not hesitate too much about the Sun Moon Empire's proposal and quickly agreed. They were naturally well aware of what the Sun Moon Empire was plotting. But they also knew that the Holy Grail War would break out sooner or later. Since the Sun Moon Empire took the initiative to choose Mingdu as the battlefield, the three great empires were naturally happy about it.
After all, the Servants were unimaginably powerful. It was not impossible for the entire Mingdu to be shattered once a large number of Masters and Servants started fighting. And if something happened to Mingdu, the core city of the Sun Moon Empire, the impact on the Sun Moon Empire would undoubtedly be huge. How could the three great empires have any objections to such an excellent opportunity to weaken the Sun Moon Empire? Moreover, the Sun Moon Empire brought this upon themselves.
Lu Jingming knew in his heart that the Sun Moon Empire dared to do this probably because they had drawn some kind of ace and were so confident. However, Lu Jingming did not use his authority as the behind-the-scenes manipulator of the Holy Grail to check which Servant the Sun Moon Empire had drawn. Except for the first time when he was curious and checked who the first Master and the summoned Servant were, he had never used this authority again.
In his opinion, omniscience was actually a very boring thing sometimes. When everything was clearly laid out in front of him, he would lose the fun that came from the unknown. He wanted surprises. If everything in the Holy Grail War was under his control and all developments were known to him, it would become too boring. He would love to know which powerful Servants the chosen Masters had summoned, but using his authority to directly check the Holy Grail's background information was completely different from seeing them in person and recognizing them on the spot.
So, Lu Jingming suppressed his curiosity. Except for Bai Xiuxiu and Skirk, he did not check the information of any other Masters and Servants.
Compared to the upcoming Soul Master Competition, the Holy Grail War, and the Servant melee, today was also a very important day for Lu Jingming. Because today was his eighteenth birthday. That's right, he had turned eighteen, which meant that he was now an adult.
For an ordinary person, turning eighteen might not have any special meaning, but for Lu Jingming, it had a special significance.
