Illusion

After rushing back towards earth, I had a smile plastered on my face. "I am back!" I shouted out loud! I am happy!

『Welcome Back, Congratulations on transcending』

"Well, well… Thank you very much, Anima!" I said while I began to descend to the island below me.

The bars began to appear in my area of view, yet I ignored it completely. As soon as I touched the ground, I began to move to the tavern before transforming my body skin to read and placing a mask to cover the upper face.

After moving around to reach the tavern, I coughed lightly and fixed up my suit before placing the cane gently on the ground and tapping it to make a few clones appear around the island.

'Follow what you find interesting and keep me updated my beautiful hearts…' As I said, all of the clones changed into different appearances and races. They smiled and flew towards different areas controlled by my people.

'Hoof' taking a deep breath, I opened the door to the tavern and opened the tavern door slowly before walking in. Everyone inside looked at me, shocked because they had no information about someone who advanced on earth to reach this part.

I took an in-depth look at everyone including Emma before moving towards the bar counter on the side. "Give me a bottle of whiskey, a glass for the shots and some peanuts," I said to the man standing behind the bar.

"5 gold, three silver… sir" the man said as he went to prepare the stuff requested. As I took my seat on the stool, Rag and Yama walked towards me before taking a seat on the stools next to me.

"Why not introduce yourself?" Rag said as he ordered something, "Hmph, one bottle of whiskey here too!" Yama said while hitting the table counter hard.

I smiled, ignoring Rag question, holding the bottle, I was about to open it to put some whiskey, Yama pulled it away from my hand and opened it before gulping out of it. I ignored his action and looked at the man behind the counter, "Another one please."

A few seconds passed, and after I received the bottle, Rag took it from my hand and took a drink from it. I looked at both of them smiling, "Is there any problem here?".

Both of them looked at me, "Yes, who are you?", I smiled at their question and waved my hand to make a bottle appear in my hand as I took a large gulp out of it before finishing it and placing it on the table.

Standing up from the stool, I walked towards Emma as Rag and Yama followed behind preparing to fight. Liel who was sitting on the other side stood up in haste and looked at me with a smile, but I placed a finger on my lips and reached Emma.

"Good day, beautiful lady" holding her hands, I gave it a kiss, but she pulled her hands away and said, "Don't, I have a husband." Rag and Yama were enraged, everyone else too stood up from their chairs and gathered around us, Rain pulled Emma away, and Viktor stood in place of Emma.

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

"You dare to stand in front of this magnificent gentleman?" I said with a smile, holding my cane tight, I tapped the ground twice and went back to sit on the counter stool before ordering a few drinks.

The rest was frozen in place except mother; she came behind me and gave me a sincere hug. "Welcome back!" She said with a smile as she began to cry for a bit, "wuwu, where were you?" she said while touching my face as she took a seat on the stool, checking every part of my face.

"I have been lost in time, mother," I said as I smiled lightly, taking a look at everyone who was frozen, I yawned and began to drink while checking out the changes in my system.

'Open Book'

Nothing happened, I was confused, but then I heard Anima speaking.

『Just think about it, it will appear, this is a function created for Tracenders』

'Interesting' I thought as I looked over it fast, seems like it's cleaner, S1-S9 looks to be stages before transcending to T1-T?.

'Anima, what is the highest of the T stage?' I asked while focusing on several stuff on the title.

『T15 is the highest but currently excluding a few; no one else has achieved it』

'Hmm…' I should work on the crafting and gathering skills soon, might as well merge them in the end.

"Huff, Huff" Rag woke up from his frozen state and the fire burned around his body harder than usual, he looked at everyone around him before looking at me and standing in front of everyone else.

"You took your time, Rag," I said with a smile, Mother who was still playing around with my face took off my hat and went behind me to fix my hair.

"Ace?" Rag fiery eyes turned calmer as he stopped on his track towards me, "What happened to you, brother?".

"Nothing much, the two weeks you spent in here, it has been over twenty years for me, brother, hahaha" I laughed while drinking.

"Don't move your head" Mother said as she slapped my head once. After a while everyone began to wake up from their frozen state, each one was angry and nearly jumped on me.

Except for Emma, who looked happier than anyone else, "Ace!" She ran towards me and gave me a deep hug before getting me slapped by my mother again.

"Haha!" I laughed while hugging Emma, "Did you enjoy that little musical play I prepared for you? It took me a very long time to create it!" I said while getting slapped on the head by my mother.

Emma looked at my face as the skin around it was changing from red to a normal color, she smiled and gave me a deep kiss before she began to talk about a lot of things happening around the world.

Rose who was not here, rushed into the tavern and saw me before smiling and nodding with a giant stack of papers on her hand.

The mood around us was exciting, and I had no choice but to keep everything terrible that happened within, I just told them the exciting stuff that may help them later on.

Viktor who was standing next to rain was excited because of the Transcender part where you gain a particular class/ role.

Johnson even talked about his daughters and looked excited while explaining how cute they were. Isoc, on the other hand, looked depressed and talked about how he is tired of the paperwork.

Kate and her son Rolph were sitting while having their tea together.

I watched everything with a smile and tapped the ground twice with my cane, "I got something important to say" my smiling face turned serious. I looked at everyone who turned silent before speaking in a harsh voice, "I want everyone to double their efforts starting from today, be strict with the order of every area you control and create a giant circle of adventurers… our future is at risk with the current state, and no one will be able to save us if we fail."

Standing up, I kissed my mother on her head before pulling Emma away and whispering in her ears "We can have an army of children soon, hehehehe" I smiled slyly as Emma pinched my back while having a red face.

'Anima, is it possible to stop all the strong ones from invading for a year?'

『Two million gold per year, nothing above S4 will enter or spawn』

'Interesting, do it with the gold I have now for a year only' I said as I knew that the joker gave me enough to last me for a few years. "Well… a simple life it is for a year!" I laughed happily.
