787 Anti-god invisibility (2/2)
In the end, Seiji decided to wait for his Spirit House door to finish leveling up so that he could rescue all his companions and bring them here before thinking about his next move.
Seiji returned to the living room of his Spirit House.
As Shika and the others all looked at him, he told them about his conversation with the White Sakura Goddess and the new power he just obtained.
”After I can go out, I'll immediately go to save Natsuya and the others. You all should remain here. I should be fine thanks to the invisibility power that the White Sakura Goddess gave me… and if anything happens, I'll summon you all to help me. After I rescue everyone and bring them here, we can all think together on what to do next.”
Everyone remained silent for a while after Seiji said this.
”You have to be careful, Brother,” Shika said while looking directly at his face.
She really wanted to be out there together with her adopted brother. However, there was a cost to his using that power of invisibility against the god. She knew that taking her would only be a burden.
”Of course I will be,” Seiji responded with a smile.
”Seiji onii-chan, go go!” Reo cheered him on.
Seiji patted the little girl on the head.
Chiaki had a dark expression. Mika was looking at her in worry.
”Chiaki… the incident will be resolved. Your father will also be alright…”
”Thank you, Mika.” Chiaki forced herself to smile for the sake of her best friend who was so worried about her.
Something flashed in Seiji's eyes as he looked at Chiaki.
”This will absolutely be resolved!” Seiji stated in an adamant tone. ”Your father will be fine. I guarantee it!”
”Seiji…”
Chiaki looked at her boyfriend.
Although logically she knew that his guarantee was a promise that was impossible to keep for certain as there was no guarantee in reality, the way he said it with such confidence, willpower, and resolution struck her deep in her heart.
'Honestly… Just how much more can I love him?'
Chiaki's eyes became wet and she raised her hands to wipe them.
”I believe you.” This time, she smiled from the bottom of her heart.
”Oh my…” Nozomi blinked upon seeing this. She then looked over at her own daughter.
Mika: ”…”
...
Finally, the door of the Spirit House finished leveling up.
Seiji was long prepared for this. He immediately stood up and activated the anti-god invisibility power!
His right hand instantly started glowing with a gentle white light that enveloped him entirely like flowing water would.
His Mana also began to decrease at a slow but steady rate.
”I'm going out now.”
After saying that to all the women, Seiji stepped outside back into the real world.
The moment that he returned to reality, he felt a deep chill. Everything around him was as dark as if he was at the bottom of an ocean.
Seiji cast [Astral Vision] and saw that white mist was everywhere as far as he could see.
If it wasn't for the White Sakura Goddess's protection, being enveloped by all this white mist would surely be terrible for him.
It would be difficult to resist the white mist even with personal barriers. Not only that—if the Evil White Sakura Goddess noticed him, it was likely that he would receive even more dangerous attacks.
This all felt similar to the Bloodwine Ritual tournament incident… And judging by power level, the Evil White Sakura Goddess was far more powerful than that Kanzaki person.
Luckily, Seiji had a god's protection.
Seiji swiftly took out his equipment from his room and put it on. He also went to Shika's room, took out all her equipment, and stored it in his Spirit House warehouse. He also took this opportunity to gather some resources that might be useful.
After that, Seiji left his apartment, and noticed that a gigantic bright red cherry blossom tree was an indeterminable distance from him!
This tree was grand and majestic, with its crown covering the skies, and its flowers replacing the stars… it was truly a breathtaking sight.
Although this tree had brought a devastating calamity, although it was a terrifying existence, Seiji had to admit that this tree was indeed truly beautiful.
Right now, it wasn't sprinkling flower petals. He figured that if cherry blossoms fell from it and covered the entire sky, it would surely be amazingly beautiful and stunning.
