I shook my mother's in law hand and kissed it afterward, she smiled sweetly at me as she looked at her daughter and said:"You didn't tell me your boyfriend is such a gentleman. Maybe I will take him for myself."Shira knew her mother was teasing her, so she huffed and put her hands under her breasts as she turned her head to the side and said:"Mother, it's not the time for that, I know that you are only acting like this because you are attempting to get over that shitty father of mine who did what he did to you."Hearing those words made Shira's mother pale slightly before turning back to her sunny disposition, she shook her head slowly and turned towards me before saying:"So when do you two want to have the wedding? We can invite all your friends and acquaintances right here, it's a pretty wide place, so it should be able to house everyone, this place is also quite secure and secret, so no one would be able to crash your wedding!"I wasn't sure if it was the man's job to plan the
Seeing how I wasn't mad, nor did I say anything about his previous attitude made Malavai quite happy as he bowed once again:"You are quite magnanimous and mature for your age, your name is Minato, right? What do you think about my proposition? You and your four friends would join our Academy, and depending on your performance, you will join our army and organization, we can discuss the details and benefits you can receive immediately!"He looked towards the gift-filled table to the side, before he flicked his wrist, throwing a small flower on top of all of them as he nodded towards me and said:"Take this as a token of apology for my previous attitude, and a gift for your wedding, once again, I'm sorry."The flower smelled intoxicatingly sweet, and I could feel a very strong wood law coming from it, if someone ingested it, they would be able to learn and quickly master up to 30% of the law that existed in the flower!It looked like these types of things existed in the Regulator's All
The regulators had things that I needed, and they didn't require me to do anything unless I took the missions on my own or I somehow found an infected planet.But all I had to do was report its coordinates, which wasn't anything to be wary of.Too many benefits to be taken for joining the alliance, no downsides almost, which made me frown inside.There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world, so there should be some undercurrents in the alliance that Malavai wasn't talking about for now.I looked towards the man in question as he awaited for all three of us to make up our minds.Seeing how I turned my gaze towards him, Malavai smiled as he asked:"So?"I wanted to join the regulators for the opportunities they could give me to become stronger, but things were slightly shady in my mind, my paranoia made me unable to give him a response for the time being, but I knew that I had to give it to him sooner or later, and I'm sure he wouldn't wait for more than a few days around here.
The planet where I was born.I looked at my surroundings briefly after I left Shira to her own devices.I decided to start my journey from the place I was born.The small unnamed village where my life changed sometimes around when I was 7 years old.My memories of that time were still vivid in my mind.The bandits took me and my parents out of our hiding, the bandit leader making his way to my mother, handling her how he pleased... My father's wide-eyed head flew into the skies as his body kneeled after it had its head separated...At this point, I had gone through so many things that I had forgotten about Aratas's promise about him finding my mother.Things moved so quickly, and my need to find her had gone down considerably since I had so many things to do, but now that I visited this place, I got the impulse to look for her once again.Maybe I should find her, just make myself at peace before I left the planet for good.I didn't need to interfere in her new life if she was treated
After traveling the human continent, I moved towards the second continent I have frequented quite a bit during my life on the planet.The Duramato continent.I flew high in the sky, looking down at the inhabited areas which were now filled with Orcs that worked together instead of warring against each other any time they could.The Orcs were still quite a violent bunch, but instead of fighting to the death with nearby villages, they started to have tournaments/non-lethal but pretty serious fights amongst themselves that would quench their thirst for violence.Their society was slowly taking shape, evolving slowly but surely.Seeing the orcs took me back to when I was conquering them using the domination ability, and when I fought Mandaia...One of the few severe fights I had while on the continent.I shook my head slightly as I thought about her, she was loyal to the last, and her body/skeleton was now most likely resting in the sand of the desert.I poured some energy from my body in
After everything that I experienced on my planet, it was finally time to leave it behind me.I wasn't content with what I had. I wanted more. I could live on the planet peacefully from now on, there was no one to threaten me, and I was friendly or an ally to all the important factions on the planet.However, the greed that was inside of me, the hunger, didn't let me stay here and continue my life mediocrely.Every time I slightly thought about settling down, the image of my father's head flying into the sky appeared in front of my eyes.He and my mother were content with what they had, but they were weak, they were unable to hold onto what they had, so stronger people than them took everything they had, including their lives!My mother was luckier, surviving the ordeal even though the events after that shouldn't have been easy on her.But my father died, he wasn't a religious person, so he most likely ended up becoming a small imp in the first layer of hell.Who knows what happened to
Even though Hanzo's lazy demeanor was still there, a slight frown crept up on his face as he sighed and looked at the weakened Malavai. There was a rather long freezing wound on his upper torso, which could be seen there rather clearly.At first glance, it looked like Malavai came out of the clash as the loser, but a deeper analysis made me look at Hanzo and shake my head.The man scratched his chin as he looked at the two of us and said:"Why don't you just let them come with me? Joining my sect won't interfere with their membership in your alliance, will it?"Malavai snorted lightly as he said:"It might not, but your sect doesn't fit the two of them, they are free spirits who would never follow the many rules that your sect would impose on them, they don't follow your 'dao'!"Hanzo chuckled slightly as his face turned bright red for a few seconds before it became pale as wax."I guess you might be right, but they are both so talented, I just can't part with them, you know? I have b
It didn't take us too much time to arrive at our destination, the bubble surrounding us dissipated as Malavai did a small presentation with his hands, indicating the existence of a gigantic building that floated in space, most likely due to an intricate barrier being constructed around it.The building was fully white with blue lines running to the middle and the sides of it. It had hundreds of thousands of rooms, being slightly smaller than the planet I and Shira had left behind.There were towers, classrooms, living quarters, experimentation sites, etc.It was a fully active academy as I saw students wearing their uniform which consisted of a blue blazer, white pants, black shoes, and a tie, flying inside the building, making them easily seen through the windows.The men wore pants, and the women wore skirts, but some also wore pants, so it looked like it was more of a preference thing.We were barely outside the entrance of the academy, where a few men were guarding it.They were k
