Chapter 469: Other Locations (2) (1/2)
Outside the Earth, on Planet Mars, two individuals could be seen dragging two Space Vessels from outside its atmosphere.
After throwing down the two Space Vessels on the ground, a swarm of Transcendents from two different worlds swarmed towards the two individuals.
One of the Individuals nonchalantly brandished the cane in his hand and a large river of Energy came plunging down towards the incoming Transcendents.
Following that, the other individual raised his hand and a thundercloud appeared overhead.
When he clapped his hands, a gigantic thunderbolt was sent down, toasting the unlucky Transcendents hit by it.
Just like that, the passengers of two Space Vessels that were on their way to Earth died without even reaching their destination.
A few moments later, the two strong individuals floated down to the surface of Mars. The one with the cane put his hand on the Space Vessels they threw down and soon after that, they disappeared into his Storage Equipment.
”Hajime, do you think it's wise to let those three Space Vessels? Isn't it too early?” The speaker is Kuramoto Sojiro, Daisuke's father in this life.
While his Transcendent Pathway reached the 4th Realm his strength, because of the state of the Source Energy he adapted to, only reached the height of a Rank 3 Transcendent. However, when he returned to the Earth a few days ago to complete and perfect his assimilated Source Energy, he was now like Hajime, a Rank 4 Transcendent powerhouse.
Among the 10 Mortal Ranks the World's Will picked, he became the one who has then given the task to… father a child. Or become the father of the one who became the strongest being on Earth.
Initially, he's also the most promising among the ten or rather the most combat-oriented among them. His Ability was Thunder Manipulation. He's fast, explosive and tanky.
Because of that achievement, the task of giving birth to Daisuke was given to him.
At first, he was only following the orders left behind by the hibernating World's Will but when he really fell in love with Daisuke's mother, he requested to be relieved of his other duties to focus on raising him. Or rather to be able to spend the following years with his wife before the World turned back to how it was before.
Unlike Hajime who altered his wife's memories after giving birth to Yuko, Sojiro couldn't do it. All his life was spent on becoming strong enough to pave the way for the reincarnation of the Divine Stage being. Finding happiness with his wife was something he treasured the most.
That's why when the call from the World's Will to intercept the incoming Space Vessels from three Invasive Worlds, he didn't hesitate to answer its call.
He knew that at the moment, that reincarnation was still weaker than them and if he didn't stand at the forefront, his wife would be put in danger once those Space Vessels arrived on the unawakened Earth.
”It's the World's Will's instruction. Are you worried about your family?” Hajime answered in a matter-of-fact tone.
He then clapped his hand to remove the martian dust on his hands before turning around to look at his colleague.
”I am certainly worried about my wife but for the other guy… Is he still my son by now? True, he's still someone my wife gave birth to… Haa, if Keiko hears me talking like this about our son, I will receive an earful.”
Scratching the back of his head as he sighed, Sojiro could only wryly smile upon remembering his wife, Keiko.
From what Sojiro heard, Daisuke went to see her and told her nothing about his identity. Daisuke still acted as their son but… when he introduced a line of girls to her as his wives and Companions, Keiko almost couldn't believe her eyes that she nagged at Sojiro when he returned briefly on Earth.
”Hmm. Even I wanted to protect Yuko-chan as her father. But as we both know, those two lads will soon shoulder what we cannot do.”
