"Oh? So you were hiding a man."
When Chloe Mansfield arrived at the school, she and Roy finally met.
The voluptuous blonde immediately approached Roy, her eyes filled with curiosity as she examined him.
Roy, in turn, observed Chloe, though his view was somewhat…obstructed.
——
Chloe, seeming to notice his gaze, smirked.
"I'm Chloe Mansfield. And you are…?" she asked, sitting back down and crossing her legs—her demeanor confident and imposing.
But to Roy, she just looked—amusing.
"Call me Roy," he replied with a smirk.
Chloe didn't seem bothered by his casual tone. "You know I'm from UW headquarters, right? I'm here to formally invite you to come with me. You can have anything you want there," she said.
"Hmph! Roy-sama won't go with you," Karen said with a devilish smile.
Chloe glanced at her, then turned her attention back to Roy.
Karen, annoyed at being ignored, frowned.
"Karen's right. I'm not going anywhere with you," Roy said, taking a sip of his tea.
"Is that so?" Chloe didn't seem surprised. She had anticipated this response.
"Very well. You're the last man on Earth. I won't force you. But I will be staying here to—observe you," Chloe declared.
"Suit yourself." Roy shrugged. He wouldn't mind her staying. It would give him an opportunity…
As promised, Chloe and a small team moved into the school.
But she didn't make any further moves, and Roy didn't press the matter.
That night.
Elisa finally came to his room.
Despite her initial reluctance, she became his.
Roy spent the next few days—doting on Elisa, but he didn't take any other women, aside from the girls in his class from the first night.
Meanwhile.
Elisa's organization successfully developed the MK virus cure using Roy's formula.
They began broadcasting the information, hacking into radio stations to spread the news.
While few people believed it at first, it was enough to spark a wave of unrest.
More and more people joined the resistance against the UW.
And when they used the cure to revive a cryogenically frozen man, the world erupted in celebration.
Reito Mizuhara, Mahiru's brother, also awoke.
"Brother!" Mahiru cried, tears of joy streaming down her face. After years of waiting, her brother had finally returned.
Reito—still disoriented, looked at Elisa as if they had just seen each other yesterday.
Seeing him awake, Elisa's heart felt lighter. She had finally let go of her past.
She was Roy's woman now.
"Elisa!" Reito exclaimed.
Mahiru's face fell. If her brother learned the truth, would he—break down?
But—
"Reito, I'm sorry. I couldn't keep my promise. I'm Roy's wife now," Elisa said, clinging to Roy's arm, a blissful smile on her face.
Reito's heart sank. His worst fears had been realized.
But he had been prepared for this, hadn't he?
Roy, seeing this, felt a strange mix of emotions. NTR-ing someone felt—odd.
Reito was truly pitiful. Not only had the woman he loved become someone else's wife—but so had his sister.
After visiting Reito, Roy and the girls returned to the school.
The higher-ups would take care of Reito. It wasn't their concern.
While the cure existed, men were still incredibly rare.
Only those who had been cryogenically frozen in time had survived.
But this didn't concern Roy.
Back at the school, he prepared to leave this world.
He had achieved his goals.
Of course, before leaving, there was still Chloe Mansfield, the voluptuous blonde, to—deal with.
Roy, no longer bothering with subtle tactics, went directly to her room.
After—taking care of Chloe, Roy left the world of World's End Harem with the girls.
——
Back in the DxD world, Roy sent Mira, Akane, and the others to Dreamland in the Underworld.
Dreamland had become a small—self-sufficient society.
It had everything they needed.
But most of its residents were Cursed Children—little lolis.
Mira and the others brought much-needed—expertise.
After all, there were too many little girls and not enough teachers.
Mira, Neneko, and Yuzuki could all become teachers for the lolis.
This would not only keep the girls occupied but also help them integrate into their new environment.
Roy decided to stay with the girls for a while instead of immediately going to another world.
While he might experience time differently, for the girls in the DxD world, only a few seconds would have passed.
And as Devils, they had incredibly long lifespans. There was no need for them to be together constantly.
But Roy still stayed with them for two months.
He spent time with each of them—Rias, Sona, Saeko, Shizuka, Shinobu, Kanao, and the others, ensuring that none felt neglected.
His attentiveness earned him their praise. After all, powerful men who weren't constantly seeking new conquests were rare.
Of course, during these two months, Roy also enjoyed the…perks of having a harem.
Akahime (Great Red) returned briefly but left after a few days.
The Evie Etoulde Evil Gods still hadn't appeared—and Roy didn't bother looking for them.
Two months later—
A new world was ready. This time, Roy was going to [Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?]—a world he had been looking forward to visiting.
After saying goodbye to the girls—he vanished from the DxD world.
——
He reappeared on a bustling street.
The streets were crowded and lively.
But Roy's arrival caused—Divine ripples.
All the Gods in Orario instantly sensed the presence of a new God.
Gods were transcendent beings who had descended from Heaven a thousand years ago.
They granted their "Blessings" to their followers—the "Familia"
Bored with their Heavenly lives, they had come to the lower world, treating it like a game.
Gods were forbidden from using their divine powers in the lower world and had to live like ordinary humans.
They were also forbidden from entering the dungeon, lest they face punishment.
Their primary goal was entertainment—experiencing the lower world, its food, hobbies, friendships, art, and even illnesses.
They enjoyed every moment, treating it like a game.
Gods weren't allowed to use their divine powers except in special circumstances.
If they did, they would be sent back to Heaven.
The only exception was the annual Ganesha Familia festival, where they could use a special mirror, the "God's Mirror,"—which functioned like clairvoyance.
The adventurers on the street—sensing Roy's divine aura, bowed respectfully but didn't approach.
Gods were common in Orario.
And many Gods disliked being disturbed, so the adventurers simply observed Roy from a distance.
Roy, however, was amused.
He hadn't expected to be granted the status of a God upon arriving in this world.
While he possessed God-like power, he wasn't a God in the same way as these beings.
But it didn't matter. This status came with certain advantages.
He could create his own Familia and recruit members, including the Cursed Children from the Black Bullet world, to train in the dungeon.
He could also recruit Girls from this world. It was a win-win situation.
But he needed money. The currency in this world was called "Valis."
The fastest way to acquire Valis was to exchange magic stones obtained from monsters in the dungeon.
But Roy didn't have a Familia yet, and Gods weren't allowed to enter the dungeon.

He was now considered a God by this world. He couldn't enter the dungeon either.
"It seems I need to recruit some members for my Familia," Roy mused, stroking his chin.
He returned to the DxD world.
Rias and the others were still there.
Seeing him back so soon, they assumed his adventure was over.
But after Roy explained the situation, they understood.
