Chapter 99
Two days later, KE strolled through the palace's back garden, watering the tea trees. Long ago, he had placed an Etheora gathering matrix around the palace, turning this place into a paradise for anyone wanting to purify Etheora within their body.
Simply being in this location, every breath taken is equivalent to a fifth-level Etheora Pill.
His family members, relatives, and guards returned from the Dimension Cube, each experiencing significant advancements in their power. Notably, his wives all advanced by one level in their power.
Mitsuri, Hinatsuru, Makio, Suma, Kyumi, and Shinobu reached the {Fading Time Rank Brief Moments World} Realm.
M-21, Raven, Takeo, and Ragis, who finally acquired an Etheora refining technique suited for him, also reached the {Fading Time Rank Brief Moments World} Realm.
Regis nominated himself to be one of the royal guards for the Emperor, seeing his elder sister Seira is KE's wife and thus his brother-in-law. He wanted to follow him to see the world of the powerful and become strong.
What could KE do but accept him, lest he get a headache from Regis's insistence.
Meanwhile, Emilia, Kanae, and Tao advanced to the {Fading Time Rank Fading Days World} Realm.
Only Seira and his mother Miyako reached the {Fading Time Rank Neglected Years World} Realm, just one realm away from KE.
Raizel remained in his realm because he lacked cosmic laws; otherwise, he would have already made a breakthrough to the {Dispersing Dreams Rank Gentle Dreams World}. Unfortunately, he now needs a bit more time to make a breakthrough.
Ryota, Kagaya, Tanjuro, Akihiko, Dante, and Jordan reached the same level as Kanae and Emilia due to their terrifying talent and lack of bottlenecks. Of course, the food filled with Etheora, the medicinal herb baths, and the Etheora gathering matrix all contributed to their rapid advancement.
Tanjuro attended the Imperial High University to learn, while the young girls, along with Kanao, were taught by KE. As for why heh…
Indeed, on his first day at the Imperial High University, Jordan became known as the Demon Coach because of his harsh training, making everyone fear him.
Amane and Kie also purified Etheora within their bodies but didn't advance much in power, only reaching the {Migrating Mirage Rank Vast Mirage World} Realm. For KE, this was too slow, but he understood they were mothers with many responsibilities.
Seriously, if all the powerful beings and gods in the multiverse and infinite dimensions heard KE's words, they would go mad and seek him out for a lesson.
If Amane and Kie, who only reached the {Migrating Mirage Rank Vast Mirage World} Realm in a month inside the Dimension Cube, knew this, many would want to hit their heads against a wall.
This rocket-like speed, and KE dares to call them slow, would drive them insane.
By the way, Emilia and Seira talked about their situation since they were on a mission to find him. KE nodded, understandingly, of course, he would have them send messages home just to remind them they were okay and give a brief explanation of what happened during the mission.
"What shall I do now?" KE pondered over his now-empty schedule, indicating the empire was progressing well. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. "Why not take a trip outside Nippon?"
"No, you will not go," said Miyako, sitting on the couch in the living room with Kie and Amane, enjoying their tea time until KE arrived and mentioned his trip outside Nippon.
Of course, his mother's immediate response was no, leaving him disappointed. "But why, mother? Give me one convincing reason why I shouldn't go," KE protested as his wives, father, uncles, and guards gathered around upon hearing him.
"Because of... because of what?!" KE smirked arrogantly as he saw his mother stutter, clueless about a valid reason to stop him. After all, KE had everything under control, and only a few matters affecting the entire empire required his input. The rest was up to his followers.
Seeing Miyako stutter, everyone shook their heads, realizing KE was now free to do as he pleased.
The red-haired boy turned to his guards. "You'll come with me. Let's go before my mother actually finds a reason." KE disappeared quickly, teleporting away, while Raizel and the others sighed and hurried after him, determined not to be dubbed the trash royal guard unable to protect their Emperor.
(Author: I'm here again. Listen closely, this Earth is entirely different from the previous one. First, it's ten times larger. Second, there are no gods or religions—don't ask me why. Of course, other universes have religions, like DxD😏. And everything here is changed; the big may become small, and the small, big. And about history, it's completely different, almost nonexistent beyond the last three centuries, all thanks to Union and Lukedonia wanting to hide themselves. Of course, the high-ranking people like the royal family, presidents, and the wealthy have some knowledge, but it's limited.)
"Hahaha, you've finally arrived. Let's head to our first destination," KE announced, choosing the Realm of Joseon, which later split into South and North Korea due to some fools thinking they ruled the world (that was personal).😂
Raizel was a bit curious since he hadn't visited any of the human realms during the time when humans were hiding from ancient magical beasts and other enemies in shelters built by Lukedonia.
"Let's fly high. I'll open a spacetime tunnel for a quick transfer," KE commanded, and everyone followed him at high speed, reaching 1000 kilometers per hour. But KE didn't want to waste time flying even though it would only take a few hours to reach the Realm of Joseon.
Hum!
With a punch, KE opened a spacetime tunnel, but not one across dimensions—that would tear his body apart from the moment of opening.
This spacetime tunnel could be opened by anyone with sufficient power and a deep understanding of the cosmic laws of time and space. Currently, only KE, and perhaps his mother Miyako, since she has the second-deepest understanding of cosmic laws after him, could open it.
"Finally, I get to see the world," KE's broad smile influenced everyone, making them happy for him. They felt like they were with a friend or younger brother, not just their Emperor. They loved this feeling and simultaneously swore to protect his hopeful smile at all costs.
In five minutes, they arrived in Seoul, the capital of the Realm of Joseon. It was about 8 p.m.
Following KE, they quickly descended into a dark alley where no one entered, to change into clothes according to the customs of the people of Joseon.
"Hoho, so these are their clothes. Let's change quickly," everyone quickly changed their clothes using Etheora.
KE donned a breathtaking robe made of luxurious black silk that seemed to embrace the stars' light. The robe, reaching the ground, was adorned with exquisite golden embroidery representing gods and ancient heroes. These weren't just decorations but symbols of divine power and authority he wielded.
Featuring a wide collar and long, wide sleeves, it enhanced his noble and majestic appearance. Around his waist, a wide golden belt with a gem that shimmered like the night sky, symbolizing his supreme power to rule over realms. The belt wasn't just part of the attire; it was also a tool for harnessing KE's divine powers.
He also wore long black leather shoes with golden patterns, harmonizing with the rest of his attire and designed to be strong and comfortable enough for his divine steps. The attire included a long scarf draping from his shoulders, made of a shimmering silver and gold fabric, adding a royal and mysterious touch.
This scarf gently swayed with every movement, adding an aura of magic and beauty to him.
Gold bracelets and necklaces adorned his wrists and neck, each carrying symbols and jewels indicative of his unique powers.
His enchanting smile could subdue anyone's heart, embodying a blend of gentleness and irresistible charm. His voice, strong and confident, reflected his leadership personality and unparalleled charm, carrying warmth and security.
