Tatsuya was working on the computer when the door opened. Miyuki walked in with two cups of coffee.
The moment she took the first step in, she paused, "Onii-sama?" She stepped inside and looked around the room.
"Hmm...?" Tatsuya didn't turn his head while typing.
Miyuki put the cups on the table before asking, "how long has it been?"
Tatsuya's finger stopped for a moment before continuing, "three weeks."
Miyuki sighed before putting her hands around his neck and leaning her body on his back, "didn't you miss me?"
"You never left my sight."
Miyuki put her succulent lips next to his ears, "I don't mean it like that..."
Tatsuya took the coffee cup before taking a sip, "I did."
Miyuki let out a giggle, "I wonder if it's the house, Onii-sama you sound more just like you used to."
Tatsuya stopped and glanced behind, "Without Amalgamation, I am right now most sane." He hadn't been sane ever since the Virtual Area turned to Soul Realm.
Miyuki turned his chair around before kissing his lips. Tatsuya stretched his eyes a little before turning to normal. His eyes swept Miyuki's body; she was wearing an off-shoulder purple sweater. And seeing her naked thighs, that was probably the only thing she was wearing. He kissed back before moving away, "Miyuki, I need to work before I start getting affected again."
Miyuki pouted, "what is so important?"
"My duplicate in Glory City, I had to let it go before it got corrupted and destroyed the whole Glory City and other settlements. I need to find a way back to Tiny World soon."
"About that..." Miyuki smiled, thinking that.
She sat on Tatsuya's lap before bringing up the system screen, "look what I got!"
#You have saved the world from being destroyed by Amalgamation.
Reward - You can choose any reward you want. (Time Limit - 24hrs.)
"It seems Amalgamation was more deadly than I thought." Tatsuya stroked her head, "good job sealing it."
Miyuki let out a happy smile, "I feel a bit bad." She felt they were taking advantage of the system. Tatsuya was responsible for being the cause of destruction, while she got great benefits from sealing Amalgamation in Cocytus.
Tatsuya knew her feelings, "don't feel that way. This all started because the system decided to turn my virtual circulation area to soul realm."
Miyuki thought about it, "wouldn't you have done it anyway?"
"I don't think I would have succeeded."
Miyuki kissed his cheeks, "I believe Onii-sama would have succeeded even without help."
Tatsuya hugged Miyuki closer and just let her presence sweep over him. Miyuki gently placed her head on his shoulder.
After a while, Tatsuya spoke, "what is it you want to get? Do you want to go back?"
Miyuki was a bit startled, "go back?"
"system did say you could choose your reward. No one said it was from the system store?"
"It also didn't say it would satisfy my wish?!"
"Maybe it won't but isn't that worth a try?"
Miyuki got up and walked away. She put her hands together, her thumbs wrestling with another.
Tatsuya walked to her and put his hand on her shoulder, "what is it?"
Miyuki turned around and looked down, "I-I am not sure if I want to go back...Onii-sama, do you?"
"Is that all?"
Miyuki put her forehead on his chest, "I don't know...a part of me wants to go back, to before..."...' before you touched anyone else.'... 'To when you were just mine.'
"It also feels wrong,"
"You came to a quick conclusion that it can do that?"
Miyuki gripped his clothes, "I have a feeling it can."
Tatsuya picked up her chin, "it's fine if you want to go back to before all this started."
Miyuki shook her head, "I can't; that would be unfair to you."
Tatsuya smiled, "I have been unfair to you...I would never mind this much. I wouldn't mind going back to before all this."
Miyuki held his hand that was on her chin and interlocked her fingers with him. "Onii-sama, this and that are different...I could never do that to you."
Tatsuya rubbed his thumb on her finger, "I think there are many options and many ways to do this. It might be a great decision. How about you sleep over it?"
Miyuki refused that, "it's decided, we are not going back."
Tatsuya held her palm, "Miyuki...think about it, if not, then think about what do you want to get."
Miyuki agreed to his words.
Tatsuya tapped his leg on the floor, and with blue sparks, a bed rose, "If you don't mind, sleep here. I made it the same as your bed."
Miyuki nodded softly, "yes..."
Putting Miyuki on the bed, Tatsuya went to start working again.
"Onii-sama?" After a few minutes of silence, Miyuki spoke again.
"Miyuki?"
"Is there something you want?"
"No...I don't."
"How about finding a way to glory city?"
"I have a direction, don't waste it on something like that."
"We can always get right of Amalgamation??!"
"Not really...Cocytus seems to like feeding on it. It will be helpful for its growth."
Miyuki wrinkled her nose, "Cocytus likes time."
"and Amalgamation is the best way to trap time."
"then..."
"Miyuki." Tatsuya turned to see her face, "don't run from the answer. It doesn't matter what you want. I will be happy to accompany you."
And so, many hours passed. The time of the room was moving at a much faster pace than the world. That is why although only five to six hours passed in the room, outside, not even a minute had passed.
Looking at the complete data in front of him, Tatsuya leaned back and stretched his body. With this, he wouldn't have to worry about many things.
He got up, letting out a tired breath, and moved towards the bed. Looking at Miyuki's beautiful sleeping face, he felt his tiredness go away. He gently laid down beside her and closed his eyes.
'I almost forgot,' Tatsuya moved his finger, causing the ripple in space and time.
After Tatsuya fell asleep, Miyuki gently opened her eyes. There was a conflict with her eyes. She could have anything she wants. But, she wasn't sure if it was right to have that. Things could go back to the way they were...But, that would mean...
Sometime later,
Yang Xin and Shen Xiu had just come back with all the necessary raw material. They were standing with the door open, but they weren't sure what they were seeing.
"Do you have any idea?"
Shen Xiu shook her head, "No...how long were we gone for?"
"An hour?" Yang Xin said doubtfully.
Shen Xiu walked in and touched everything that was in the way, "this is all so different."
Yang Xin tilted her head, "their rooms are always like that, but this is different. Isn't space inside bigger?"
"I noticed that too!"
Yang Xin opened the door nearest to her, "Tatsuya! Miyuki!"
Shen Xiu went inside and looked into another. The more they saw, the more surprised they were. If things weren't urgent, Yang Xin would have enjoyed every moment of this.
Just when she was peeking at Miyuki's clothes, Shen Xiu's voice reached her ears, "they are here!"
Yang Xin almost dropped the skirt in her hand; she hastily kept the things inside before walking out as if nothing happened.
When she reached the only room with the door open. She saw Shen Xiu, who stood in front of a metallic platform.
Everything in this room looked so different, so different from anything she had seen yet.
"Yang Xin?"
Yang Xin looked towards the bed; Miyuki was sitting up on the bed with a blanket barely covering her body, leaning on Tatsuya beside her.
Yang Xin looked towards them with her eyes wandering around. She wanted to ask something, but she knew Tatsuya wouldn't tell her.
"Teacher, if you feel that sad, then I wouldn't be able to help myself but tell you," Tatsuya said with barely a smile on his face.
Yang Xin shook her head and said with a big smile, "you don't have to do that, kid!"
Tatsuya looked towards her and Shen Xiu, "I want to."
Yang Xin looked surprised before moving towards them and sitting on the bed, "then I will let you tell me."
Shen Xiu sneaked a glance at Tatsuya, "should I stay or wait outside?"
Her eyes met with Tatsuya as he smiled towards her, "stay."
While Tatsuya lied to them about him and Miyuki, something else was going on in the whole Divine Feathers Sect.
Suddenly, students across the Skysoul Institute had started fainting. More than half of them were already fallen. Most that were awake were on the outer edges of the institute.
The Five Hierarchs were standing in the air watching this scene.
Martialsky looked down on the scene, "that kid, his Dao Intent is spreading even now."
Linglong was happy, "this is also good, as far as I know, his Dao is really beneficial."
Skycloud looked at her, "have you tried?"
Linglong shook her head, "No, but Shuyun had seen it. From what I heard, it's like watching the Dao itself. Something like we had seen."
Martialsky eyes followed a graceful boy with a calm aura, moving towards the Hall.
Skycloud noticed his eyes, "those from the East District are also here."
Linglong smiled gracefully, "well, hopefully, they get some great benefits."
