Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Kenkai
Victoria Flareheart lay in her personal quarters, entwined in bed with the most powerful man in the Nirvana universe, both of them completely naked—a clear testament to the events of the previous night.
"Do you have to go? Can't you stay for another night?" Victoria murmured, pressing his face against her bosom, enveloping him in the warmth of her soft, firm skin.
"I wish I could, but we need to strengthen our universe. Only then can I ensure a future where we can wake up like this as many times as we desire," Sam said softly, holding her face gently as he looked into her deep green eyes before planting a deep kiss on her cherry-like lips.
"How are you feeling? It was your first time, after all. Are you still hurting?" he inquired with concern.
"No," Victoria shook her head slowly. "It hurt at the beginning, as I needed time to adjust to your... impressive size," she admitted, a hint of pride in her tone.
Sam chuckled to himself, feeling a swell of pride at her compliment about his size.
Victoria's gaze drifted somewhere, lost in thought, as she placed her palm on his chest. "Can I ask you something that's been bothering me for a while now?"
"Of course," Sam replied, his tone gentle and encouraging.
"I want to know... how can I become your eternal companion?"
Sam sighed, a weight seeming to settle upon him before he spoke. "Tell me, why do you desire that title? Is it because you feel left out? Or perhaps because of jealousy towards other women?"
"It doesn't matter. As long as we are together, titles hold no significance. Do you believe that our feelings for each other are diminished because I don't hold that title?"
"Impossible. I never thought that. I just... it would bring me great happiness if I were to become your eternal companion," Victoria said, moving her hand to gently cup his face.
"Happiness, huh?" Sam sighed again, this time with understanding. It seemed he had come to a realization about something that had been nagging at him.
"To be honest, I don't know how one acquires that status. But I am certain that you will attain it soon. I can feel it—it's the same feeling I had before we reincarnated, the time when others became my eternal companions."
...
After some more pillow talk with Victoria, Sam walked outside and noticed Mira and Sophia in the dining hall. Lily and Jane were also there.
He stopped in his tracks and took a moment to watch them from afar without disturbing. It seemed Sophia was getting along with their half-sister really well. Sam had been afraid that Mira and Sophia wouldn't get along.
Sophia loved the twins— who wouldn't love those two twin muffins? The problem was Mira. Sam was particularly worried if Sophia would get along with Mira, but it seemed he may have been wrong about that. They seemed to be getting along well.
"It might be their personalities that made them ignore their differences," Sam speculated.
Sophia was lively and cheerful. Of course, this only applied when the context of the subject was Sam. As for Mira, she was quiet. She was not a great talker nor did she engage in any social activities.
Smiling to himself, Sam approached his sisters. Sophia was the first one to notice her sweet, loving, and most handsome brother. As soon as she did, she immediately paused whatever she was doing and flung into his arms.
"Brother, I heard you are going to another world. Are you going to leave me alone?" Sophia asked, purposely making her eyes look moist.
Sam easily knew what she was doing, even without the help of his amazing observation skills. He knew her too well.
"Why would I leave my precious sisters behind? I actually came here to take you with me," he then proceeded to pat her short, white-haired head.
Then he turned to Mira. "Mira, I will let the system give you an extra personal storage space. You can store whatever you want and everything you and the twins nee d."
"I'm coming with you?" Mira asked with an expressionless face.
"Of course."
[An additional storage space with a 100% preservation rate has been added to your profile.]
Mira noticed the notification and nodded at her brother before disappearing from the spot immediately. She didn't take Lily and Jane with her since Sam and Sophia were there to watch over them.
Sam watched her go with a thoughtful expression. "It looks like her potential is almost recovered. I couldn't heal her completely, even with the life forces of those I've killed."
"I guess it's to be expected. After all, she is a candidate to reach true immortality, and not to mention she is my sister. Her potential should be unimaginably high."
Just being related to Sam, the son of the universe, the beginning of anomalies, his sisters should be able to become the strongest people on the world level, at the least.
"I think I can refresh her potential, possibly even boost it further if I change her biology... perhaps into a vampire or a lycan."
"I want to be with my big brother," Jane protested, her tone bringing him out of his deep thought. He saw Jane arguing with Sophia, insisting that she wanted to be carried by him, while Lily didn't care as long as she got her treats and timely spoiling from her big brother.
...
"You're coming with us, Suzaku," Sam casually ordered the giant bird-shaped blue flames that looked like they could burn anything to ashes. The bird-shaped flames had a pair of red eyes.
Mira looked at Suzaku with wide-open mouth and eyes, then glanced at Sam with a questioning gaze, as if asking, "Are we taking this giant burning vermillion bird with us?"
"And drop this flamboyant form of yours, and maybe change your size; it's too eye-catching."
Following his order, Suzaku, the blue flames of the figure disappeared, revealing a giant bird about thirty meters big, with beautiful blue feathers accented by fiery red, and a sharply bent beak.
"Seiryu and Byakko, I won't let things stay as they have been until now. You guys will be put to work and do your jobs as the guardians of the continents. Tasks will be assigned to you by the system, and, more importantly, protect my family members. Do you understand?"
"We do, Master," Seiryu and Byakko replied, bowing their heads.
"I have some business in another world. I'm taking Suzaku with me because she is the fastest out of the four of you, and she is good with children, since I'm taking the twins and my sisters with me," Sam said, pondering something.
Suzaku grinned, looking at her brothers getting reprimanded by their master before she sent a telepathic message to them. "Too bad, brothers. Master picked me. Go do your work as you're supposed to. I will be going to another world."
Seiryu and Byakko felt a vein pop upon their huge heads.
"Let's get going," Sam said, as Mira, Sophia carrying Lily, and Jane in their arms, hopped onto Suzaku's back. She began to ascend into the sky without a particular direction in mind.
"Fly straight, Suzaku. I will open the dimensional portal, and you can go right through it."
"I understand, Master."
Trusting her master completely, Suzaku tore through the sky like a bullet, while Sam protected his sisters from the assault of the intense wind.
Sam joined his hands before pointing his glowing palm forward. A few kilometers ahead, the space became distorted, followed by a crack, then it blasted into pieces like broken glass, revealing a giant portal big enough to let multiple titans pass through.
Without hesitation, Suzaku entered the portal. At that moment, an intense blinding light assaulted the girls.
When they opened their eyes, they found themselves in a completely new and strange place, atop what seemed to be a forest-covered mountain.
"Welcome to Kenkai, the world of swords, spears, and warriors."
Sam closed his eyes, connecting to the channel he uses to communicate with his World Tree sisters. "Raya onee-chan."
"My dear brother." A girl with the appearance of a ten-year-old appeared out of nothing. She possessed golden hair and golden eyes. She was Raya, the youngest of the World Tree sisters and the World Tree of Kenkai, the world of swords, spears, and warriors.
As soon as she appeared, she jumped into his arms, causing the twins Lily and Jane to look at her with hostility, especially Jane, whose face turned a little red from pouting her cheek hard.
Sophia patted the girl as if understanding her feelings. "I know that feeling; I hate it too."
After talking for some time, Raya and Sam held each other's hands as they began to connect her spirituality to Sam, letting him become the administrator of the world Kenkai.
After a few minutes, the blinding golden light subsided. They were successful in forming the spiritual connection. Now, just like the cultivation world, Sam had access to data about every single thing in the world of swords and spears.
He could finally start the launching of the system.
As if responding to his thoughts, the codex flew out of his eyes in a flash of light, opening its pages.
"Shisu, the origin of the system is the cultivation world. To launch it in this world, it needs an anchor. You will be that anchor since you are connected to me."
"Let the system access the spirituality of this world just like the cultivation world and establish the interworld connection between the two worlds."
<Understood, master.>
<Secondary administrator accessing the system core.>
<Connecting to the Kenkai world's spirituality.>
<Providing assistance to the system in connecting with the spirituality of the World of Kenkai.>
