"Since Antigonus, you've agreed, I'll notify you before the tea party is held. I hope you'll be punctual as you promised."
Lynn smiled at Antigonus, then, as if thinking of something, pinched his chin and said, "By the way, should we invite Tudor as well? Young Tudor might be interesting too."
Lynn's intention was simple—he just wanted to tease Tudor.
Antigonus and Bethel exchanged glances, engaging in a silent but intense conversation.
Bethel spoke first, his tone gentle, "His Majesty Tudor...probably wouldn't enjoy such an event."
Though not explicitly stated, the implication was clear: "Please spare us the trouble, especially since you just dealt with Tudor."
Bethel knew well that Lynn, with his seemingly mind-reading abilities, would understand the hidden meaning.
Indeed, Lynn did understand Bethel's subtle message. He responded, "But it's enough that I enjoy it. Tudor's opinion doesn't matter; he can't beat me anyway."
"And you two will help me, right?" Lynn smiled innocently at the two key figures of Tudor's empire, providing them with a reason: "As the saying goes, Blessings are meant to be shared. Since you're both significant figures in Tudor's empire, you wouldn't want His Majesty Tudor to miss reliving his childhood, would you?"
Bethel: ...
Antigonus: ...
The two loyal subordinates exchanged another glance and nodded in unison.
"You're right; we can't be the only ones suffering...ahem!" Antigonus almost blurted out his thoughts but quickly corrected himself, coughing to cover his slip and glancing at Lynn, who thankfully didn't seem angry.
Bethel, more composed than Antigonus, silently apologized to Tudor before seriously stating, "Libert, you're right. We can't deprive His Majesty Tudor of reliving his childhood."
Antigonus glanced at Bethel with a look that said, "I didn't expect this side of you."
Lynn blinked, not surprised by Bethel's response, and said with a sincere tone, "It seems everyone cares about His Majesty Tudor's well-being. He's lucky to have you both."
The sincerity in his voice contrasted with the apparent schadenfreude.
"Honestly, I don't want to use forceful invitations. The tea party's principle is for everyone to have fun!" Lynn sighed, discussing the fake principles of the tea party while his mind raced with ideas, forming an intriguing plan.
Initially, Lynn's idea of hosting a tea party with young versions of Bethel, Amon, and Antigonus was merely for amusement. But now, he saw a bigger picture.
Why not invite everyone to play along?
He thought of inviting the Tudor Empire's Blood Emperor Tudor, Solomon, Trunsoest, and members of the Six Gods like the Evernight Goddess, Earth Mother, and Lord of Storms, plus King of Angels like Medici, Ouroboros, and Will to create an unprecedented gods' tea party.
Lynn believed this would be a fascinating event. Just imagining the young versions of the Four Emperors interacting was thrilling enough—Solomon, Tudor, and Trunsoest, despite being children, would still be at odds, while young Ouroboros and young Will would stare each other down, with young Adam watching quietly until young Medici set his hair on fire...
No, I can't think about this anymore, or I won't be able to stop myself!
Lynn took a deep breath, restraining his impulse to summon everyone immediately, and continued contemplating the benefits beyond the fun.
Firstly, the participants alone would make the tea party memorable, potentially being recorded in secret histories and murals, enhancing his angelic narrative and increasing his presence in this world.
Secondly, Lynn could observe the attitudes of various gods and high-rankers towards each other, gaining insights into the situation and finding opportunities to collaborate with entities like the Evernight Goddess, aiding his path to higher Sequences.
However, arranging this would be challenging. Lynn couldn't force everyone; it would make too many enemies.
Fortunately, he planned to invite only a few familiar faces for the first gods' tea party. This included important figures from the Tudor Empire like the Blood Emperor Tudor, Amon, Adam, Mr. Door, and Antigonus.
From the Solomon Empire, he would invite Solomon, the True Creator, Medici, and Ouroboros, along with high-ranking members of the Six Gods like the Evernight Goddess, Earth Mother, and Lord of Storms, plus the nomadic Will and Balam Empire's Death Consul Azik.
Within the Tudor Empire, the main figures were a given—Amon and Antigonus were easy to invite, and Adam would likely join due to his usual demeanor. Tudor, having just been dealt with and with Amon and Antigonus watching, would probably comply or be persuaded by Adam.
For the Solomon Empire, Medici, Ouroboros, and the True Creator were easy picks—though Lynn wasn't fond of the True Creator, he couldn't ignore his significance.
Yes, Lynn was that shameless.
He believed Solomon would join with his allies' persuasion.
The only issue was the sequence rivalry between Ouroboros and Will. To maintain harmony, inviting Ouroboros might mean not inviting Will, but Lynn really wanted to see them together. After serious consideration, Lynn made his decision.
