Chapter 658: Did Not Take the Bait

[Searching Worlds...]

[10%...50%...100%]

[There are a total of 44,770 Worlds that want to meet you and have invited you inside:

5 Super Worlds, Rank 9

30 Mega Worlds, Rank 8

102 Giant Worlds, Rank 7

308 Enlightened Worlds, Rank 6

930 Worlds, Rank 5

2,030 Worlds, Rank 4

5,023 Worlds, Rank 3

12,304 Worlds, Rank 2

24,038 Worlds, Rank 1]

"Huh?!"

Yuki remained silent, shocked by the number of worlds.

There were so many that he could spend years visiting them and might never finish. Fortunately, these worlds posed no danger; they simply sent invitations.

"5 Super Worlds..."

The invitations from the Super Worlds made him frown. Any world that reached level 7, 8, or 9 was incredibly powerful.

They were so strong that they could suppress Champions and kill Overlords on their own. Especially a Rank 9 Super World—unless a Champion was as strong as the Empress, none would dare provoke a world of that level. They were nearly impossible to destroy, and Champions had no interest in dealing with these fickle mothers who wrote stories for their own amusement.

Thus, all Champions ignored them. As for Overlords, they would simply die if they dared to enter such worlds.

Yuki didn't dare to enter these worlds either. Of course, he was unaware that he had already been in Toaru's world, which was at a very high level. Though he had suspected its strength, he hadn't realized that the world of Toaru had already written a story for him. Fortunately, he had avoided getting trapped in that terrifying world by leaving due to an emergency.

[Worlds in Danger: 3,885 (Decreasing)]

The Champions' response to the worlds in danger was immediate, as expected of the world's saviors.

However, even so, there were some worlds that couldn't be saved. The reason was simple: the Champions didn't arrive in time, and the world was destroyed. Meanwhile, new Overlords were born, or existing ones became stronger. Yet, no new Champion had been born, showing just how hard it was to save a world. After all, worlds in danger—whether due to an Overlord or internal threats—were the norm.

[Mega World 6667 (Type-Moon) has issued a mission.]

[Requestor: Champion Time Emperor]

[Description: Human greed and war have driven the Mother of Life insane. In her madness, she has created beasts to end life. Alaya, Mother of Humanity, can no longer tolerate this, sparking a war between Alaya (Mother of Humanity) and Gaia (Mother Earth). In her desperation, Alaya has offered her greatest treasure to the Time Emperor Champion and seeks his help to stop Gaia.]

[Mission reward: Holy Grail (Heart of the Void Hero)]

"!!??"

At first, Yuki hesitated over the mission, as all Champions knew that worlds ranked 7 and above were whimsical mothers who would do anything to write a story to entertain themselves. This was common knowledge. They wouldn't hesitate to dangle enticing rewards to lure their favorite children, the Champions.

Of course, since these worlds were nearly impossible to destroy, Champions usually ignored them, even when offered such generous rewards.

So, the mission smelled fishy, and Yuki was inclined to ignore it…

But after reading the mission description and seeing the reward, Yuki was shocked.

He had never thought that the lost Heart of the Void Hero would be in a Rank 8 Mega World.

Yuki almost gave in to his greed and accepted the mission, but in the end, reason prevailed.

For one, the Heart of the Void Hero had been a noble sacrifice, and the Yamai sisters were a symbol of that heart. It was also powerful enough to sever the connection between the Eternal Abyss Lord and the world.

Such a heart would be impossible for him to claim—at least not yet, as he still had unresolved issues in his spiritual world.

Not to mention, a Rank 8 Mega World was so strong that Yuki wouldn't be able to oppose the Mother of All.

What if it was a trap and he got caught in the "story"?

Yuki wouldn't risk it.

"No, wait... in that cursed game, my avatar's Heart also served as a container for Abyss creatures..."

The Heart was the key to unlocking the Coffin of Weapons and sealing the entire Abyss army. It was a crucial piece for the Requiem.

However, to claim the Heart, he would have to enter a Mega World, which was unacceptable—at least for now. His hands were full.

Yuki shook his head and marked the mission as "Pending." He closed the chat room and continued working on controlling and strengthening his spiritual world.

"Tch! The fish didn't bite the bait!"

What Yuki didn't know was that his decision was the right one, and ignoring the mission saved him from many problems. At that moment, in another dimension of the 'Type-Moon' world, two small girls watched the holographic screen in front of them, eagerly waiting for their favorite child to enter the paradise they had built.

It was a shame he didn't take the bait...

"It's okay, Alaya. As long as we have the Holy Grail (Heart), he'll come to us eventually. That fish won't escape."

Unlike Alaya, who was upset, Gaia was much calmer. After all, she was confident in herself, and she believed that the allure of the Holy Grail would be impossible to resist...

"Hmph! You say that because you weren't the one who paid for the Holy Grail (Heart)."

Alaya was dissatisfied. After all, she had painfully traded her own treasures to obtain the Heart.

And why wouldn't she? In the Multiverse, there are many Worlds, and as Worldly Consciousnesses, they have always cared for the life within them, spending their days in boredom.

To avoid this, high-ranking Worldly Consciousnesses created a dimension where they could materialize and communicate with other Worldly Consciousnesses.

In this dimension, they could enjoy some freedom.

As Worldly Consciousnesses, what they loved most was showing off their children to others.

So, they created "channels" where the lives and adventures of heroes were shared among the Worldly Consciousnesses. The most dazzling heroes, with the most tragic or wonderful stories, were the most popular. This had even led to a form of commerce, where Worldly Consciousnesses paid for entertainment and followed these channels.

Even a Rank 1 world with an exceptional hero could quickly develop thanks to the "payments" from other worlds.

It was a win-win situation...

Type-Moon was famous for having the most dazzling heroes, but recently, another world brought a new kind of story that was innovative and captured everyone's attention, leaving their channel in the dust.

"Curse that Shinobi World! Showing off their child so shamelessly!"

Alaya ground her teeth, thinking of that world. If there was one story that every world loved to watch, it was definitely the story of the Champions.

Since they had no destiny, they were impossible to control. Unlike heroes, who were always under control and whose fates were known, Champions were unpredictable. There was no telling what would happen to them, and no way for the worlds to foresee their future.

This unpredictability was something only Champions could provide to the Worldly Consciousnesses.

However, such stories were extremely difficult to come by, as Champions never allowed themselves to be trapped, let alone become the entertainment of the Worldly Consciousnesses.
