I wanted to go back to earth Imediately, but there was this voice in my head stoping me.
"Stop you idiot, you're giving off too much pressure, use your will to first look at your surroundings!"
I observed my surroundings as Black instructed and didn't find any hint of the Elder, next I sent my will to the planet itself, I saw some birds frozen in midair, the clouds didn't move like at all and even the light looked like specks of glowing dust, it was as if the whole world was underwater or something as air looked no different than water.
"You idiot, you have to seal your spiritual pressure and physique if you want to live among the people, Just let me take the helm!"
I of course knew that, it was just that he's faster thinking than me, that's all, I sealed those two points and went down to the ground, but my movements were so slow that it was as if I wasn't moving at all.
"Time perception as well! you moron!"
Okay, I was doing it even before White started insulting me.
When I returned I looked at the date, it seems that a week has passed since I disappeared, well how much can the world change in one week?
Kisara was enraged, she said something about freya getting kidnapped, her getting together with Ukita and other stupid stuff that were completely boring. Until she said they were fighting some sort of weapon division of Yami, my mind of course when hearing weapons, went to semi-automatic weapons and bazookas, who on earth would think about swords and spears.
It's like calling people wearing armor the Armored division, that's plainly stupid.
"Not as stupid as you, what's wrong with calling a weapon, weapon and an armor, armor, it's simple logic"
"Also ask that woman with big breasts what's the difference between Yami divisions, because it feels as if you're in the wrong division, you use blades after all"
The clone was right.
"Of course I'm right, idiot"
-Wait, do you think you're getting out of this one that easily, where were you in the last week?(Kisara)
-You can thank Miu's Grandfather, that Old Goat sent me to Mars
-What! You're kidding me right?
-Not at all, first we went to the moon to speak with some alien...
-Stop! You're making this up right?
-Then let me ask you do you believe that I can teleport people?
-Well sort of...
-Then do you know how far Mars is?
-Well not really...
-You're lucky I even made it back home, one of these days I'll personaly go to thank that old goat for his gift
-You should respect your elders!
-Stop pinching!
-Why is your skin even better than before, reveal me your secrets!
It wasn't exactly painful, but it was irritating, it was like a fly trying to sit on you. As my sealing abilities got better I could become more and more like a normal person, of course I didn't want the demerits of that, thus some changes were in order.
It wasn't even 2 hours as I had returned and the secret services were already here, well unless they tried to cause trouble I don't really care.
-So what are you going to do this summer?(Kisara)
-I don't have any plans, but isn't that around a week and a half later
-Idiot, if you want to go somewhere you have to book tickets in advance!
-I still don't undertand, I can just go over there
-Oh, yeah, you're the teleporter guy, I've totaly forgotten, silly me
-So what are you doing after school?
-Just heading to the Shinpaku Alliance building as usual
-How about we celebrate my return?
-Not interested
-If you don't come, I'll have to punish you
-Fuck you and your games! I have kittens to take care of!
-Don't say later that I didn't warn you
-Yeah Whatever, just tell me the time and place
-At night at my Estate
-Sure, just don't be too scared when we come
I don't know whatever she means, but she'll be scared if she doesn't come.
"Idiot, she'll probably come disguised or bring some friends along"
I have to stop her, this is supposed to be a harem only night!
"Are you a moron, you just returned, are you thinking with your dick or something?"
I don't know what to say, the voice of logic has spoken, well I'll let her have fun.
"Don't listen to him, once she comes I'll show you my domain"
Now the dick's talking, well this time I'm on shirtless dick's side.
"We gonna have pussy tonight!"
Yes whatever, at least we'll see what your domain does, because it did nothing while in the voids of space. I only hope it won't kill anyone.
Bimbo was happy to see me, maybe too happy, she hugged me and then informed me that she had emptied my bank account, in this one week I was gone.
Well time to talk with the government or something, maybe I'll do them a favour or two in exchange for money, but before that I have to ask Super Milf about Yami divisions, ranks and those boring information.
My phone, well it got destroyed by the wormhole, when the elder kicked me to oblivion, but that doesn't matter I still remember everyone's numbers.
-So you've returned?
-Well it wasn't easy, curse that Old Goat
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
-Was your disappearance caused by Hayato?
-Who's Hayato? Either way the Elder of Ryozanpaku caused me to fly in space for a week without a compass, I'm...
-Cut the chit-chat and tell me why've you called me
-I want to know about Yami divisions, ranks and such, I know nothing
-Just ask Chikage
-Wait, I also want to throw a party for my return
-Sounds boring, just pick me up when the copulation ritual begins
-Wait, the what?
She hung up on me, well I was going to invite Chikage anyways, she's already part of my harem. But before that I have to call chinese Loli, she picked it up, heard my voice and hung up.
Well I'll be abducting her either way, for the copulation, no for the return party.
Professor Chikage, begun to explain the structural management of Yami, the lowest are non martial artists, whom were simply workers and agents of Yami, they have their own infrastructure, jobs and management and leaders.
Above it Yami, which is divided into two Divisions, the Armed Division and the Unarmed Division.
-So I use daggers, does that make me part of the armed division
-No, using daggers and being martial artist that specializes in dagger skills is two different things, Yami is composed mainly of Martial artists, the bottom of the Pyramid are the Disciples, whom are divided by Low, middle and High quality, divided mostly by physical potential, not by skills
-But I'm not exactly at that power level am I?
-You are not, above the disciples are the Masters, divided into low, middle, high, Super and Legendary, you should belong to the last category. Master and disciples can do missions for Yami in order to get resources, training or the right to challenge another Master in deadly combat. Above everyone are the Division leaders, the One shadow, Nine Fists and the Eight Shining Executioner Blades
-So do I belong to the armed or unarmed division?
-I don't know, I haven't seen you fight, just chose whichever you think aligns with your martial arts
-Then probably unarmed, If I was to use a blade now, I would probably just destroy it, there's probably no weapon that can withstand my Ki
-Wait, what was the other thing you wanted to tell me?
-Oh yeah I almost forgot at nine I'm having a return party at my estate, everyone will be there
-Un...
Well not thaw everything's out of the way, it's time to go surprise the Old Goat, can't have him running around all happy.
"How stupid, you think he doesn't know you're back, he's just waiting for you to come find him so that he can determine his next action, whether to eliminate us or let us be"
Then what should I do?
"Wait until he's sound asleep and eliminate him, make sure that nobody knows what killed him"
And here I thought he was a genious.
Either way I went to see the elder, after all it wouldn't be polite to not invite him to my return party, now that I know that Kisara has already invited half the Shinpaku alliance over.
I also sensed that our estate had been upgraded with two swimming pools, a huge Stage for concerts and a bar, also I sensed that there are more than a dozen cars in the garage.
The most however surprising thing was that I sensed Super Milf was sunbathing near the pool. I felt like an Idiot for calling her, since she was already there, well it's not a bad thing thus the only thing left is to go see the Elder.
The Ryozanpaku Dojo was as run down as always, the moment I entered the Elder was already there to invite me inside for a tea.
-To tell the truth I didn't expect you to return so soon
-Well not soon enough for the festival and a kidnapping case
-Nothing to worry about
-You know there's a voice inside me that tells me to just strait up murder you for what you did, but I don't want to, do you know why?
-Is it because you saw the folly of your ways and decided to become a good guy?
-Hell no, I've always been a good guy
The elder begun to spit out the tea from his mouth and begun to laugh.
-I'm honored that you find it so funny, you see I decided that I'll fuck your grand daughter in the future to make us even, isn't that a wonderful Idea?
-You haven't changed one bit, still as evil as before, well just wait for three more days and I'll be back, by the way Earth is now mine, so you should probably relocate, I think Mars has a vacancy, they want their ruler back
-You shameless Old Goat, I invite you to my party at Nine, every master of Ryozanpaku is invited, I'm celebrating my return from space and will also show you my domain
-Are you happy with just having domains, I've already begun fusing mine into a single domain, you're too slow
-Oh, don't worry about me, I'm sure that unlike you I won't kill everyone with my spirit pressure
The elder went silent, because he remembered something really bad, he had no way of making me leave the planet and if his true body returned to earth he had no way of supressing his spirit pressure. The people of earth were too fragile and spiritualy brittle, even a tiny bit of pressure is enough to cause them to panic, more can make them faint, as he was now, his spiritual pressure would probably kill everyone.
The worst however thing was what he learned at the sect, by coultivation laws everything I'm doing isn't even considered "Evil", Evil in the cultivation world is different than what evil is in the mortal world. There are three Evils that a cultivator must not do, the first being Soul Snatching, taking someone's soul and using it or torturing it was considered evil, you have to kill them righteously, there were of course some exceptions, but only for hienous demonic criminals, the second taboo was demonic cultivation, devouring the labors and talent of another cultivator was a big sin in the cultivation world, people struggle for years in order to ascend, cheating is not only wrong, but it also has the opposite effect as demonic cultivators cannot reach the peak of cultivation.
Last Taboo was killing another person without a valid reason, family bonds, unless your family were cultivators, didn't count, meaning that even if someone murdered his whole family as long as they weren't soul snatched or used in order to further someone's cultivation, it was seen as mundane affairs and immortals shouldn't interfere with mortal affairs if they ever want to accomplish their Immortal Ascension. The elder had sort of cheated in order to attain his spirit Severance and the reason he was able to pull it off was because of me. In the originl timeline in his anger he had forcefully severed all his attachments to the world, so that he could defeat me, don't ask me how this makes any sense.
I could however tell that the elder wasn't happy with my return, not happy at all, of course who would have been happy if a precious talisman crafting immortal returned. In the Sect craftsmen were valued higher than combatants and seal/talisman masters were a small minority, the problem was that those greedy alien would happily gift the earth away in order to gain the favour of someone useful, but unless I unleashed my spiritual pressure they won't be able to know I've returned, of course I didn't know that at the time, the elder saw no reason to tell me about it.
I watched his face crook as I told him I would bang his grand daughter, but in reality I was just trying to get even with him, I'm not that sort of guy. At least I wouldn't go for someone's close ones in order to get revenge on them, logic dictates to just go for the person themself.
-So you came here to gloat, but isn't this a bit too soon?
-Nah, I came here to share my joy with you and your grand daughter
-You know that if you touch her, I'll be forced to make a move
-It's not the first time I'm fucking your relatives, little Jill was a real sex bomb
-You might not believe me, but I think I just broke through to the second stage of Dao seeking
-Yes, good Immortal ascension, but why haven't you begun coultivating yet, oh I know you know that if you cultivate you will become a danger to society right?
-No, I've already made another Avatar, this one is just here for the mundane affairs and will remain even after my ascension to make sure that some bastard won't lay a finger on my grand daughter and grand grand daughter
-You really are a bussybody, do you think I don't dare kill you
-Oh come on, you haven't killed me once, you think I'm afraid of you?
"He's goating you to kill him, there must be a reason behind this"
Black's voice of reason was the only thing that stopped me from killing him right here and now.
-So you like playing tricks with me, why do you want me to kill you?
-Who said I want to die, I sure didn't, I'm just saying that I'm not afraid of you, in three days my main body will be back, all I have to do is cripple your cultivation and it's all over
-Like I'll believe you can do so, at least not before you destroy half of the world, every time you try to defeat me all you accomplish is to embarass yourself, grow some balls and find yourself a woman, of course at your age, that might not even work, but there are wonder pills for that
-You cheeky little bastard, you think all people are like you, thinking only with their dick, the world is in peril and you only think of how to satisfy you desires?
-What's that got to do with me?
-You know that with power come some responsibilities
-Bullshit, unless you have something to anchor you down, you only have to look after your own people
-Where's the partiotism and your national pride?
-I left them at school
-You do know that the Good guys always win at the end?
-Of course I do, in the end It's I who will win
-Whom are you kidding, you're no different than Yami, just by counting your sins you will go to hell, every religion included
-Good thing I'm immortal
-Until me or someone else takes your head off
-Oh how cute, Old Goat wants to threaten me
-I see there's no point in giving you a third chance
-Oh did you want to make me stronger again, every time you make my life difficult and for what?
-To make you a better person!
-Then let me make you a better person as well, by giving you a grand grand child ahead of times
I didn't stay any longer as speaking with Old Goat is no different than speaking to a wall, you can curse at it all you like, but it won't break character.
