BXBX NOVEL Chapter 486 Progress Towards The Goal
As soon as the two Rank 3 Transcendents saw the newcomer, their expressions both fell.
Although the red-skinned Transcendent was already quite subservient and willing to assimilate the Earth Energy, he\'s still probably thinking that he only needed to bide his time to get back to his peak before escaping this world or even better, conquer it for himself.
He probably believed me when I told him that he could restore his original strength in less than 20 years.
That time was only like a few days or months for him. For all I know, he\'s probably already more than 200 years old at this point.
Being subdued by those sufficiently weaker than him… it was enough to plant a grievance inside him.
No matter which world, almost everyone was the same after all. It\'s easy to guess what\'s going on in their mind.
Strength always reigned supreme. Only when it became a matter of life and death would one bow down to someone weaker than them and bide their time until they\'re strong enough to retaliate.
That long-nosed Transcendent was easier to read since he didn\'t need to wait for 20 years but for the red-skinned Transcendent, he would drop down to Mortal Rank. For him to survive, he needed to play a believable act.
"You brat-- Ah. I mean. I did meet her before coming here. She\'s also looking for you." He then shifted his gaze to the girls who greeted him, "It\'s my honor to be called father by five gorgeous beauty. My son must have troubled you, I apologize."
Ignoring the fact that he seemed to be uncomfortable reprimanding me like he always did before, the way he bowed towards the five girls and apologized to them was too much in contrast.
The girls instantly waved their hands and told him that I wasn\'t troubling them.
"Daisuke… I don\'t know what kind of food you fed these girls but always take care of them, alright?"
"C\'mon dad. It\'s not like I changed. It\'s still me. I still remember all your teachings. There\'s no way I will neglect them after bringing them here from their world. I also still look up to you and your relationship with mom. Besides, knowing your story… I guess my view of you is even higher now. Thank you for not abandoning mom and taking care of her."
I might be someone born from the World\'s Will during my past life but these more than 16 years of memory with them already shaped my personality.
They\'re my parents. That wouldn\'t change.
"... I\'ve known that you\'ll become like a stranger once your memory returns but seeing you acting almost the same as before… I\'m relieved. Did you tell your mother about.…"
"I did. And it\'s something she couldn\'t comprehend. She\'s more concerned that I brought these girls with me. I\'m afraid to be scolded again if I look for her."
I put on a bitter smile.
Although I politely introduced my Companions to her, when it went past 10, she hit me in the head and pulled Yuko and Yumiko to ask them if I was joking or not.
But when the two confirmed it, she fell unconscious.
Well, right now, some of my Companions who were now aware of the customs and traditions of this world were accompanying her. As they all tried to be accepted by her.
"Who told you to introduce them all at once?!" My father almost raised his voice but as if he remembered that I wasn\'t the same boy he raised from birth, he coughed once and lowered his tone. "Anyway, is this the reason you called me back?"
Shifting his gaze to the two Rank 3 Transcendents, he then opened his Transcendent Aura. Compared to our Transcendent Aura that wasn\'t perceivable through the eye and could only be felt, his Transcendent Aura formed a figure behind him, an illusory lightning lion that roared and lunged towards the two, pinning them on the ground.
"Rank 4 Transcendent!" The long-nosed Transcendent of Arania World couldn\'t help but scream it. Soon afterward, his scheming eyes lost their glow as if whatever he planned to do was already torn to shreds.
There\'s no escaping his fate now. He would either die as nourishment or become a turncloak from his world.
Earlier, they couldn\'t properly gauge my father\'s strength but they were aware that the newcomer was stronger than them just based on sensing his Energy Intensity. Now that they were being pinned down by his Transcendent Aura, the look in their eyes was now filled with fear.
Knowing that they\'re weaker than the Dark World, they probably didn\'t have a Rank 5 Transcendent. Rank 4 Transcendent was the strongest entity in their world and upon seeing one here, their hopes of escaping already turned to 0.
With the assistance of my dad, the following procedures to convert them were done smoothly.
On this day, Earth welcomed a new Rank 3 Transcendent and someone who could become Rank 3 Transcendent given enough time.
It\'s just a small drop in the ocean, there\'s more to come.
By the time we leave this world, I would make it so that only a genuine Sage World would be able to push this world down to its knees.

One week later, the incoming Space Vessels that were being sent by the Invasive Worlds had lowered considerably.
During the week, I asked the sly old man to let some Space Vessels land on Earth. With the help of the EDA, those Space Vessels became hidden to the public eye.
It would be bad to let them panic when my plan to nurture them wasn\'t set in motion yet.
As for those Space Vessels who landed, they became training grounds for my Companions, Heroes and Transcendents consisting of the EDA Officers and those who came with us from their worlds such as Ezyn, Yse and Old Man Reol.
With the use of the Baptismal Chamber, the number of Transcendents on Earth began to increase.
The twins Rei and Ren as well as the Spirit Beast couple Jagu and Chee had finally reached the threshold when they underwent \'Baptism\'.
Although the initial strength they received was artificial, the four were thankful to us for allowing them to reach the threshold. Yumiko and Jayna were also overjoyed to know it.
Because of that, they became their Guardian when they undergo their Transcendent Trials.
Since the Space Vessels coming to invade Earth lessened, most of the old fossils already went back to Earth. My father remained out there though to patrol the vicinity of the Earth.
And due to that, I finally met the other six old fossils.
Excluding the sly old man Hajime, my father Sojiro and the dead one who turned out to be the one managing the EDA soldiers, the other six had their own role in this unawakened Earth.
Polaris was a caucasian man whose duty was to steer the world to become a technological world, letting those scientists develop their technology by funding them.
In truth, his assets became the fund we used to create that multi-billion dollar company Levatus.
Well, it\'s material worth so it meant nothing to him.
Neliza looked like an asian woman specifically from the southeast like Amry. She along with the other three old fossils was responsible for scouting the nearby Worlds.
The other three were named Chang, Renard and Vivian.
The last of the six was named Amir who\'s responsible for steering the underground world.
Right. He\'s the one sparking conflicts all around the world. It was to let the world continue becoming progressive.
All of them were Rank 4 Transcendents, however, their UPL had around a hundred points of difference from each other.
With my father being the strongest among them and the sly old man coming in second.
Now that they\'re back, their duty would now change.
Moreover, despite me being weaker than them… they\'re all waiting for my command.
Most likely, they\'re also like the Heroes with their heroic nature that was all put in a different spectrum of heroism.
That World\'s Will also instructed them to follow me while he\'s recuperating.
Nonetheless, I let the sly old man decide for themselves. It\'s a hassle to continue commanding them. Even the management of EDA that was now emptied and the Levatus who would be responsible for the distribution of Virtual Gaming Devices all around the world was passed to them.
My time was better used to spend with my girls to speed up our progress.
Also, during the week, we went to 10 Mortal Worlds and relieved the Heroes of their duty in saving it by closing the Portal and cutting off the head of the snake pestering them.
Their job became the rebuilding of those worlds.
Raiden, Hikari, Boris and the trio Amry, Kazeyoshi and Matthew already returned to Earth and like the other Heroes… they\'re training themselves again against those Transcendents from the Space Vessels.
Naturally, we first captured those unknowing Transcendents that were being sent by their worlds thinking this was still easy picking.
With this kind of progress in a week… I was now on that small island… watching one of my Companions completing her Mortal Pathway.
"Sister Leianne reached it first…"
"Daisuke is visiting her, Erin and Fleur almost every night. He\'s guiding them even at night."
"Do you really believe he\'s guiding them?"
"That monster was planting his seed unto us who wanted his offspring… That\'s not some sort of special training."
Erin ended that discussion with the girls as she told them the truth.
Upon hearing that, I could only flash a wry smile. That\'s the truth anyway. And like she said, not everyone wanted one yet. Nonetheless, I wasn\'t neglecting any of them. They just noticed that nightly occurrence.
Shaking my head to push those thoughts to the back of my head, I jumped out and went over to Leianne.
Using Energy Zone and hugging her tight in my arms to make use of World Assimilation, I began supporting her towards the completion of her Mortal Pathway.
