Monday morning is a headache for students.

However, Akemi got up very early today.

Except for the first day she moved in when she slept very late, Akemi usually got up very early, and she also took over the kitchen duties at the Amamiya Residence.

Ren is not good at this kind of work, and Shiho even less so.

Only Akemi, who is good at taking care of people, could have some skill in this area.

Breakfast did not need to be particularly complicated. Just a simple hamburger made with bread slices wrapped around tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber slices, a beef patty, and sauce, then a cup of refreshing and delicious coffee milk would suffice.

After preparing breakfast, Akemi put away her apron and checked the time.

7:01.

It was time for Ren to wake up.

She still had to wake Ren.

After a quick tidy-up, Akemi went to the Ren's room, knocked gently, and only after receiving no response did she push the door open and enter.

Upon entering, she could feel a special scent in the air of the room.

Sniff, sniff. What is this scent?

Akemi could not describe what kind of scent it was. It was not a bad smell, nor a fragrance. It was just that kind of scent that made one want to take a few more breaths.

Akemi's gaze quickly landed on Ren sleeping on the bed.

As she walked toward the bed, the strange fragrance grew stronger.

Coming to the bedside, Akemi lowered her head and leaned toward the sleeping lord on the bed. Her nose sniffed, and that strange smell entered her nasal cavity.

It was indeed emanating from Ren.

Strange, did the god have such a smell?

Having lived together for some time, it was the first time Akemi had smelled such a scent on Ren.

Akemi had many questions, but considering the time, if she did not wake the god up soon, the time to get up would pass.

"Lord god… lord god…"

Her hand gently shook the god's body, her voice gradually increasing, as if she was afraid of waking the person sleeping on the bed.

Ren, who was called to wake up, slowly opened his eyes.

Huh?

Akemi noticed in an instant that the strange fragrance disappeared as the god opened his eyes.

Ren, having woken up, only felt his body stiff. He propped himself up with his hands and sat up from the bed.

His head was still a bit groggy, completely different from how he usually felt when waking up.

What's going on?

Ren only felt that his physical condition was strange today.

He almost instinctively, very subconsciously, checked his body and then got the answer.

This was a subtle strengthening of his body by the authority of life.

After obtaining the Brood Hive, he received power in return. That vitality did not complete the transformation of his body in an instant, but rather had a certain phased nature.

Ren touched his arm. The sturdy muscles, which had been developed through countless part-time jobs in the past, had disappeared, becoming incredibly soft instead, like a young girl's arm.

…Does the authority of life have such a drawback?

Life evolves toward the most perfect direction, especially that excessively powerful life often eliminates a large number of negative states.

It was just that Ren did not expect muscles to also become a negative state.

"Lord god."

"Hm? Ah, good morning, Akemi."

Ren then realized that Akemi had entered his room.

"Is lord god feeling unwell physically?"

Akemi's face was filled with worry.

Ren looked over, puzzled. He asked, not quite understanding:

"Why do you say that?"

"Because your body is emitting an indescribable scent. The closer I got just now, the clearer I could smell it."

Scent?

Ren paused, then immediately realized. When the authority of life transforms the body, the overflowing vitality unconsciously attracts the attention of living beings.

"That's nothing abnormal, it's just the vitality overflowing from me."

"It's not a big deal, just a way for my body to evolve, a phased kind."

While explaining, Ren also thought that the muscles on his arms had disappeared, and probably the muscles in other parts of his body would also become soft.

Perhaps on the surface, he might look a bit like a pretty boy.

This was a headache.

"So that's how it is."

Akemi's worried expression eased. As long as it was the god's own condition, then it was fine.

"Lord god, it's already past 7 o'clock, it's time to get up."

"Is it that late?"

Ren subconsciously pressed his forehead. He had slept much deeper yesterday than he expected, mostly because the authority of life was subtly transforming his body, which extended his sleep time beyond his instinctive control.

Next time, he still needed to pay attention and keep this situation within his control.

"Yes, I'll get up right away. Akemi, please go wake your sister first."

Akemi understood Ren's meaning and nodded slightly.

"Then, lord god, I'll go wake Shiho first."

After Akemi left the room, Ren got out of bed.

He walked barefoot to the full-length mirror in the room, looking at himself in pajamas in the mirror.

He slightly lifted his top. There were some ab lines on his abdomen. He reached out and pressed, and it was slightly different from his usual soft abdomen.

Well, even if he ate a very plain diet, he still had some flab. But now, the past flabby parts had also disappeared.

Life had evolved toward perfection.

I don't think my past body was that bad.

After complaining inwardly, Ren still put his top down.

These changes in his body would not be noticed unless he took off his clothes. He usually only took off his clothes when going to the beach or taking a bath, so it was not a big problem.

Shaking his head, Ren first went to wash up, then changed into his school uniform. He would test the issues with his body after school when he had free time.

Maintaining a good state, he walked out of the room.

What he saw were the Miyano sisters already sitting at the dining table.

Ever since the Miyano sisters moved in, the house had become more lively, and he gradually began to get used to breakfast time with others.

"Good morning, Akemi and Shiho."
