CHAPTER 192: CHAPTER 191: LOVE ARMAGEDDON & SYSTEM CRASH

The Demon Castle had survived centuries of wars. It had withstood celestial crusades, dragon raids, and even a surprise tax inspection from Heaven itself. But it had never, ever, faced this.

The courtyard was rubble. The nobles had fled, bribery forgotten. The chandeliers lay shattered like crystal corpses across the marble. The Demon Army of Love still knelt outside in the tens of thousands, singing hymns about Rei’s "godlike husband aura" like deranged choirs at a rock concert.

And in the middle of it all... Rei. Still in his maid outfit. Still clutching his feather duster like a holy relic.

He trembled as the six brides circled one another like predators fighting for the last drop of blood in the world.

Seraphina’s wings unfurled, each feather glowing brighter than a cathedral sun.

Drakana’s scales burned, her body pulsing like a living volcano.

Lilia’s contracts swirled around her like storm winds of ink and fire.

Velvet’s parasol shone like a black hole, sucking in light with eerie elegance.

Lucivella’s serene smile was more terrifying than any snarl, shadows dancing at her feet.

Rosette? She vanished and reappeared in flickers, blades singing lullabies of murder.

The atmosphere thickened until even the moon looked away in shame.

Rei gulped. "S-so... maybe we can just... talk it out? Hug it out? Group therapy—"

Six voices overlapped.

"Shut up, Rei."

He whimpered, The first attack wasn’t a spell. It was jealousy. Pure, unfiltered, world-breaking yandere jealousy.

The waves radiated from the brides in pulses that cracked stone, melted iron, and made entire continents sneeze from secondhand anxiety.

The Demon Army of Love outside collapsed into seizures of worship. The waves hit nearby forests and caused every tree to blossom heart-shaped fruit that immediately exploded.

Rei doubled over, clutching his stomach. "Oh god—it’s like emotional food poisoning—!"

[System Alert: Jealousy Waves Detected. Recommended Action: Dig Hole. Hide Forever.]

"Why does your advice always suck?!" Rei screamed.

Seraphina struck first. Her wings blazed with holy light, unleashing a Meteor Hymn. Bolts of sanctified fire rained from the heavens, each one inscribed with glowing verses of eternal matrimony.

Drakana countered instantly. She inhaled, then roared a Dragon Inferno Vow, spewing a firestorm so intense it melted the meteors mid-air, creating a rain of molten gold.

Velvet spun her parasol, turning molten fire into sparkling confetti. She bowed theatrically. "Ladies, please. My stage."

Confetti promptly exploded, flattening half the castle.

Lilia screamed over the noise, throwing scrolls like grenades. Each one detonated into glowing chains of red thread that sought Rei. "SIGN HERE! SIGN NOW! FIRST NIGHT FOREVER!"

Lucivella didn’t move. She simply whispered, and the shadows thickened, swallowing meteors, firestorms, and contracts alike. "Do continue. I enjoy foreplay."

Rosette appeared behind Seraphina, blade poised for her neck.

Seraphina only smiled. "You dare?"

Rosette whispered: "Always."

Their clash ripped reality like paper. The world reacted instantly.

Jealousy waves became global earthquakes. Volcanoes erupted in the shape of heart emojis. Storms formed across oceans spelling out "REI ♥" in lightning.

Heaven dispatched angels to "calm things down"—they were immediately kidnapped by the Demon Army of Love and forced to sing wedding hymns in 12-part harmony.

The mortal kingdoms panicked. Entire parliaments collapsed as queens fainted at the mere thought of Rei in a maid outfit. A thousand artists painted him simultaneously, flooding markets with "Holy Husband Maid" portraits worth more than gold.

Rei stared at the horizon as thunder cracked. "This isn’t a harem anymore. This is apocalypse fanfiction!"

[System Alert: Love Armageddon Level Reached.]

[System Analysis: World End Probability: 87%. Husband Death Probability: 112%.]

"Wait—how can it be over 100%?!" Rei shouted.

[System Response: You attract bonus deaths.]

The courtyard transformed into an end-of-days opera.

Seraphina sang a hymn so piercing that every stained-glass window in existence shattered simultaneously.

Drakana bellowed a roar so loud it flipped mountains upside down.

Velvet danced in circles, parasol launching black-hole roses that sucked up armies, spat out love poems.

Lilia screamed about fake pregnancies, throwing glowing ultrasound illusions at her rivals.

Lucivella wrote whole sermons about Rei’s "divine hips" in midair with shadow fire.

Rosette sliced every incoming attack with surgical precision, murmuring, "Mine. Mine. Mine." after every strike.

Rei, hiding behind a chunk of rubble, nose bleeding from stress, clutched his feather duster like a teddy bear.

"This is fine. Everything’s fine. I’ll just—just pass out and hope I wake up in another life as a snail—"

He didn’t get the chance.

[System Alert: Emotional Damage Overload.]

[System Warning: Love Armageddon Levels Exceeded.]

[System Calculation: Rei’s Fertility Output Exceeds Planetary Capacity.]

"WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?!" Rei shrieked.

[System Critical Error: Too Many Fiancées. Too Many Wombs. Too Much Chaos.]

The text began glitching. Letters scrambled. Notifications looped.

[Sys—t#m Fail—ure: Re—boo—ti—ng... Plea—se Waaa—]

The voice crackled, stuttered, then cut out completely.

Silence.

The omnipresent, trolling voice of his life-support system... gone.

Rei gasped. "...Oh no. Oh no no no. If even the System quits, then—I—I’M SCREWED!"

The brides unleashed their ultimate techniques all at once.

Seraphina’s holy meteors clashed with Drakana’s volcanic firestorms.

Velvet’s black-hole roses devoured Lilia’s contract chains.

Lucivella’s abyss swallowed Rosette’s assassinations.

The result?

A singularity of insanity. The sky ripped open. The ground cracked like an eggshell. The oceans rose into the air, spinning into heart-shaped whirlwinds. Stars fell, painting the heavens with pink fire.

And at the center of it all... Rei. He stood trembling, maid outfit shredded, feather duster limp in his grip. His eyes wide, his voice trembling.

"P-please... stop fighting... I—I can’t take it anymore—"

But no one heard him. The world itself bent under the sheer force of obsessive love. And then—

Rei fainted. Face-first into the rubble.

Instantly, everything stopped.The meteors froze in the air. The flames halted mid-roar. The shadows recoiled. The contracts unraveled. The black holes closed.

Six brides turned at once, staring in horror at the unconscious Rei, his cheek pressed into dust, his body limp.

For the first time since the battle began... silence.

The Demon Castle creaked. The Demon Army of Love outside held its breath. The entire world froze.

And in the silence, the broken system whispered one last line:

[System Error: Rei.exe has stopped working.]

Rei, unconscious in the ruins.Six brides staring at him in a mix of panic and guilt. A shattered world holding its breath.

And the promise that Love Armageddon... had only just begun.

To be continued...
