Cheat Awakening
Chapter 731 - 731. Clan Opening

"Hmm? What do you mean by still sleeping and not getting ready for the ceremony?"

Myne rubbed his bloodshot eyes and stared at Aisha, who had forcefully dragged him out of bed again. He had no idea what she was talking about.

Yesterday, he had played with Garnet for the entire day and only returned late in the evening. Then, he was forcefully dragged into the bedroom by Aisha, Sylphy, and June, as they wanted to test his new strength. He didn't even have time to eat dinner properly before he was forced to start heavy work again, not closing his eyes until four o'clock in the morning. If it weren't for his skills and powerful body, he might have been sucked dry by those three evil women.

Now, it was barely eight o'clock in the morning, and he was forcefully awakened for some useless ceremony about which he had no idea at all.

"Sigh, this is what happens when you run everywhere for excitement and ignore your own house. Idiot, didn't I tell you yesterday during dinner that today is our clan's opening ceremony?" Aisha shook her head and walked to the wardrobe, pulling out a luxurious three-piece blue and black suit with golden lining and buttons, and gently placing it on the bed.

"WHAT! Our clan building is finished? I thought it would take a few more years. Hahaha, to be truthful, after such a long working process, I had almost given up hope, thinking that the clan's construction would never be finished," Myne joked as he got out of bed and observed the suit prepared by Aisha. He couldn't help but give her a thumbs-up for her choice; she really knew his taste.

"And whose fault is that? The construction work would have finished a long time ago if you weren't insistent on making it grand and luxurious and pouring money like water; it's all because of you that it takes so long to build. Still, we can officially open our clan," Aisha rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Because Myne was wandering everywhere and rarely stayed home, most of the time it was she who had to keep an eye on the construction work. She could also say that the clan building was made completely under her supervision.

"Thanks for your hard work, dear. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would have done. You were like my guardian angel, always taking care of me," Myne sensed the negative emotions in Aisha's words and, realising his mistake, instantly hugged her and started complimenting her, improving her mood.

"Alright, alright, stop flirting, and quickly get ready. The guests will start coming soon," Aisha wrapped her arms around Myne's neck and gave him a quick kiss before chuckling and pushing him into the bathroom.

Myne didn't resist and hurriedly washed up and got ready wearing new clothes before walking downstairs, where he saw that everyone except Aisha had already prepared, wearing new clothes, and chatting in the living room, looking very excited.

"You damn woman, why didn't you tell me about this yesterday?" Myne walked beside Garnet, who was sitting alone, and asked in a low voice while greeting others.

Garnet put down her hand mirror and lipstick and looked at Myne playfully.

"I didn't want to spoil the surprise these girls prepared for you. Don't you like it? After such a long wait, your clan is finally ready to start."

"I like it, but I don't know if it matters to me anymore as it did at the start. At that time, I was very excited, as the clan could bring me a lot of wealth and status. But now, these things don't seem much use, after all, as you said, the kingdom is on the verge of war; who will have time to care about a little clan? Also, I should work hard to increase my strength instead of helping some nobodies for a few coins," Myne leaned back on the chair and spoke while staring at the floating clouds outside the window.

"Do you even know how those girls spend most of their time?" Hearing Myne's words, Garnet put down her makeup kit and looked at him for a moment before sifting her gaze to the girls and asking calmly.

"Doing things they like?" Myne hesitated for a second, looked at everyone happily talking around him, and replied with uncertainty.

"And what do they like? You are their husband, boyfriend, benefactor, and brother, right? You should know what they like," Garnet continued, refusing Ayri's request to apply lipstick with a scary smile, which made Ayri run away in fright.

"I..."

"You don't know, but it's normal since you spend most of your time seeking death outside. How can you have time to observe and think about your girls' likes and dislikes? They are so excited about the clan opening because, unlike you, who have multiple ways to fight and increase your strength, they can't go out blindly and fight with every random guy they meet."

"But by becoming a member of the clan, there would be a lot of tasks coming to them from all over the kingdom, and they can choose where to go for adventure and seek fun, and also improve their strength and see new places."

"So instead of putting on a face like you are attending a funeral, smile and show excitement for the clan opening. Anyway, everyone knows that you are just going to be a hands-off boss, and all the matters of the clan are going to be handled by those girls, and no one is going to ask for your permission in this regard. They have already made all preparations, the clan has been divided among them a long time ago, and your role is nothing but cheering them on in the background."

Although Myne felt relief hearing that he didn't have to waste time dealing with minor things like clan matters, God knew why, hearing Garnet's words, he felt someone stabbing him in his heart; it was quite painful.

"Forget it. Since they like playing clan games, let them do as they please. By the way, what is your position? Don't tell me you have no role at all," Myne asked curiously, looking at Garnet, who wore an outfit like a goddess, with a golden queen's crown on her head. If not for the fact that the clan indeed belonged to him, he even thought for a moment that she was the owner of the clan.

"I will be the senior advisor to the clan leader and handle all matters of the clan when the leader and vice clan leader aren't around," Garnet spoke casually as if taking the third most powerful post in the clan wasn't a big deal for her.

"You..."

"Beep..."

Just as Myne was about to complain about Garnet's shamelessness, suddenly the golden, palm-sized device on the table started making a beep-beep sound. It was an Arcane Link, a device through which people can communicate from a distance.

Garnet picked up the Arcane Link, and Lewis's voice came out of it.

"Mother, we are ready. Please ask that damn ghost to open the portal..."

"Don't look at me like that; it was your sweet little sister's fault. What can I do if she can't control her mouth and accidentally spills the beans?" Garnet, feeling Myne's murderous gaze, closed the Arcane Link and spoke while shrugging her shoulder, pointing at Ayri, who was talking with Amy excitedly.

"You meet me tonight. I think we still have some topics left to discuss," Myne made a fist at her while gritting his teeth, before giving her the middle finger and opening a portal.

It was really not my fault, Garnet pouted, but Myne was obviously not going to buy her words.

As the portal opened, Lewis, his secretary Elsa, who had finally confessed her love and become his official girlfriend, Aniue, and Penelope, his maid, who had also successfully stolen his heart and become his girlfriend, appeared. However, because Aniue is a candidate for king, unfortunately, she can't become his wife, but neither of the two cares about it, and she is more than happy to be with him.

Except for them, there was Faren, the current king of the kingdom, and Myne's poor father-in-law, who was beaten to half-death by his own wife for cheating on her and was now lying in a wheelchair, getting healed.

Because of Garnet's special magic, no matter how much healing potion he drank, it had no effect on him, and he was forced to recover naturally, which was obviously not a fast process, leading him to spend almost all his time in bed. If it weren't for a big event worthy of his attention, he would not have gotten out of bed.

There was also the second queen, Mavise, and her son, Rector.

"Brother Myne! You are alive!" Rector's first action after getting out of the portal was exclaiming loudly and running at Myne, making everyone look at him.

"Well, I was until you called my name. I don't know about the future," Myne, feeling killing intent coming from Aniue and Lewis, spoke embarrassingly while unconsciously hiding behind Garnet.

"Brother-in-law! My dear, loving brother-in-law, how do you feel about fooling us for such a long time? Do you know how many tears we shed when we learned you might have died?" Aniue, with a bright smile on his face, while taking out his sword from its sheath, walked toward Myne. With each step, his momentum increased crazily, as if a beast were about to jump on its prey.

"Sylphy! Look who's here! Hurry up and come out, Elder Brother couldn't wait to meet you."

Myne, seeing his death approaching, decided to take out his ultimate weapon and called out Sylphy.

And this trick indeed worked. Hearing Sylphy's name, Aniue and Lewis both stopped, and a look of unwillingness appeared on their faces. Before they could make up their minds to drag Myne to another place to show him their brotherly love, unfortunately, Sylphy walked out of the kitchen, giving them no chance to vent their anger.

"Guys! You are all here..."

"You can't hide behind Sylphy always," Garnet whispered to Myne, who was wondering whether he should use his hypnosis skill and settle the matter of fooling Aniue and Lewis with his fake death for months.

"I know, I am thinking of a way to deal with them," Myne replied helplessly before shaking his head. Just then, Aisha also came down, and they were ready to go to the opening ceremony.
