"Mika is taking Chelsea as his Imperial Consort?"

The news of Mika taking Chelsea as his first consort sent ripples of shock throughout the court. It was the Emperor's first consort, naturally attracting the attention of the officials.

More importantly, it caught the attention of Airmid and Mellie.

Outside Mika's palace, having just received the news, they rushed towards his chambers, coincidentally meeting along the way.

"I knew you'd come, Airmid," Mellie said, a playful smile on her face.

"Of course, I would," Airmid replied, meeting Mellie's gaze.

They exchanged smiles, but beneath the surface, other emotions simmered.

As companions who had faced life and death together, their feelings for Mika were no secret to each other.

It was an unspoken understanding.

But now, Mika had made the first move, taking Chelsea as his consort. This surprised both of them.

"Let's go see what that idiot is thinking."

Mellie took the lead.

Unlike Airmid's unspoken understanding, Mellie had been upfront with Mika about her feelings. They had shared many intimate moments in the dream world.

But now he was taking another woman as his consort.

Putting aside other considerations, wasn't he getting the order wrong?

She could accept Airmid being before her; after all, they were childhood friends.

She could also accept Yahweh being before her; after all, she was their leader.

But no one else.

In fact, Mellie had thought extensively about their relationship. She could sense that the other women including Yahweh in their Familia also had feelings for Mika.

Compared to Airmid and Yahweh, Mellie knew she wasn't in an advantageous position.

Putting aside Airmid, the childhood friend, Mellie believed she had many ways to outmaneuver her if she chose to, to seize the initiative. After all, Airmid was too passive.

But Goddess Yahweh was an insurmountable obstacle.

Mellie knew that Yahweh's love for Mika was more about possession than affection. After all, the Gods of Orario were lonely and bored.

Therefore, for Yahweh, Mika, who could travel between worlds, was someone she could never lose.

Facing this situation, Mellie had never considered being Mika's sole companion.

But she couldn't allow Mika to choose someone else while excluding her.

Therefore, she was the first to make a move, even if it was only in dreams.

And during their adventures, she had always subtly assisted Mika in his interactions with other beautiful girls.

She didn't mind how many people were by Mika's side.

But she had to be one of them, and she had to hold an important position.

Therefore, Mellie could tolerate Airmid and Yahweh being before her, but she would never accept anyone else above her.

Soon, they arrived at Mika's chambers.

"Mika, we heard you're taking that assassin from Night Raid as your consort?" Airmid spoke first, her voice filled with disbelief.
