Chapter 74
KE stood on a very beautiful land, the most beautiful land he had ever seen in his life.
"So, is it very beautiful?" KE nodded to Alaya, making her smile with a smile that would even soften the coldest heart.
Gaya was still hugging KE unconsciously. "Well, Alaya, let's start now. KE has to finish quickly and become stronger." Alaya nodded to her and took out a small gem the size of a palm.
This gem is the artifact at the god level that KE crafted. This gem is his weapon or a manifestation of his true weapon.
When Alaya brought it close to KE, many silver and golden white threads began to emerge and wrap around him.
KE was very determined, even if it took a century to merge, he would accept it as long as he now doesn't care about time as long as he has the Dimension Cube.
When all the threads formed around him into a beautiful cocoon, but it's not just any cocoon but a hidden armor that even Raizel at his full strength could not scratch, let alone break.
But before KE closed his eyes, he smiled at them with his strong childish smile, and his eyes filled with determination. "Gaya, Alaya, never forget me. In a little while, I swear by my honored name that I will take you by my side and will not let you leave my side."
His smile made the hearts of the two goddesses beat strongly, and their faces turned red, but their eyes were filled with love and longing.
The two divine sisters stood watching KE as the cocoon finally closed.
KE noticed a few tears appear in their eyes, which made his heart tighten, but he must walk this path. This is the path he chose, and he must not withdraw like this; otherwise, how can he protect everyone around him.
The place was quiet; you could only hear the sound of tears falling to the ground until Gaya broke this silence with her frail voice. "Alaya, it seems we are back to being alone." Alaya lowered her head and felt the sadness that filled her and Gaya.
But when Alaya realized that this was for a better future for them as a family, she touched her sister's hand. "It's okay; we've gotten used to it and remained this way for billions of years. What about staying alone for a few more years until we reunite with the man we fell in love with again?"
Gaya's eyes brightened when she thought about it, and then she sat down and took out a set of tea and tea tree seeds.
Alaya didn't know that Gaya had these things. "Hehehe, KE gave them to me moments before he entered the cocoon." Alaya puffed her cheeks and stared at the cocoon containing KE.
"Just wait until you come out." Suddenly, KE trembled without feeling and had a bad feeling, not knowing that Alaya would pull his ear for stealing. "So, what do you do with the tea seeds?"
Gaya looked at Alaya with an innocent smile on her beautiful face. "Of course, I will plant them. In this way, we can drink tea in abundance here while we wait for him to come out."
Alaya nodded and went to help her, while they do the same work without knowing that the power of KE's body and soul is currently undergoing earth-shaking changes.
After 13 years inside the Dimension Cube
Crack!
A crack appeared on the golden cocoon.
Both Gaya and Alaya stopped drinking tea and stood up quickly.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The cracks continued to appear, exciting the girls.
They waited.
They had waited all these thirteen years; it had been the most torturous years.
They didn't notice it at first, but they knew that being with KE brought them different feelings, the most important of which is happiness. So, during these years, they were tormented by boredom.
"Finally, he has awakened." Gaya had been waiting for this moment; she missed him so much over these years.
Alaya nodded quietly; she was calm on the outside but missed KE as much as Gaya did. "It seems he is breaking through, but how? Didn't he break through 13 years ago, and why would he break through while he was asleep?"
Initially, when the cocoon enveloped KE, it was the width of three people, and now it was simply massive, so much so that calling it a hill was not an understatement.
The cracks grew until the cocoon turned into a very small cluster of light orbs. The girls saw KE standing in the middle.
His appearance this time was radically different, showcasing a stunning transformation thanks to his fusion with his god-level weapon.
His shining red hair flowed impressively, reaching a length of two and a half meters, reflecting extraordinary strength and beauty.
His eyes shone like the stars in the night sky, silver-white in color, captivating onlookers with their breathtaking beauty and his sharp gazes revealing his strong and wise soul.
His skin was pure white and flawless, displaying a purity beyond description.
He had clear, sharp features; sword-like eyebrows indicating his strong will, and pink lips reflecting his gentle and delicate side.
His tall figure, reaching two meters, carried the grace of power and vigour.
KE's clothes reflected his status as the future emperor and embodied his divine power and authority.
He wore a luxurious robe that reached the ground, made of fine black silk shining under the starlight, adorned with golden embroideries representing symbols and motifs of gods and ancient heroes.
This robe featured a wide lapel and long, wide sleeves, enhancing his dignity and majestic appearance.
Around his waist, a wide golden belt with a central gem shining with colors resembling the night sky, symbolizing his power and ability to rule worlds.
The belt served not just as part of the formal attire but also as a tool for harnessing KE's divine powers.
His long boots, made of black leather with golden engravings, matched the rest of his outfit, designed to be strong and comfortable enough to withstand his divine steps.
The outfit also included a long scarf draping from his shoulders, made of a translucent fabric shining with silver and gold, adding a royal and mysterious touch.
This scarf gently swayed with every movement, adding an aura of magic and beauty to KE.
Accessories like golden bracelets and necklaces adorned his wrists and neck, each bearing symbols and jewels that signify his special powers and illustrious history as an emperor.
His captivating smile could enchant anyone, embodying a mix of tenderness and irresistible charisma.
His voice was strong and confident, reflecting his leadership personality and overwhelming charm, carrying warmth and security.
"Hello, Gaya, Alaya, I've missed you," a breeze of cold air passed through the girls' ears as KE hugged them tightly.
The girls, being only 160 centimeters tall, were easily embraced by KE.
Alaya and Gaya's eyes widened at first they wanted to push him away, but their hearts and bodies refused. Every moment, every second they had been waiting for this moment, finally it came, and they wanted to let it pass, that was impossible in their dictionary.
The green-haired and white-haired girls tightly hugged the red-haired boy, inhaling his scent so they would never forget it after all this time. They never forgot his promise to them.
"I will never leave you again," KE's eyes were filled with sadness. He didn't think he had made them cry 13 years ago. If it were within his power, he would leave everything and go hug them like now.
The girls had gone through many wars and destruction. There were countless moments where they might have died if not for their strength.
He wanted power because Gaya and Alaya had indeed become his responsibility. His heart didn't desire power to this extent if not for the girls in front of him.
Shatter!
KE's world boundary broke from {Fading Time Rank Perishing Minutes World} to {Fading Time Rank Forgotten Ages World}.
But this time, the breakthrough didn't affect the inner world of the Dimension Cube or even the outer world they lived in.
Firstly, his breakthrough was due to the process of the True Emperor Refining Technique evolving on its own without KE's command, though its speed was reduced by about 40%, and most importantly, it reached the third stage [Third Stage: Forming the Imperial Core].
Even his body evolved due to the True Emperor Refining Technique, which could make all techniques work on their own without KE training, but the speed decreased by 40% like the True Emperor Technique.
Thus, even the Art of the God of Combat (Battle) reached [Sixth Stage: Strengthening the Dantian], surpassing the [Fourth Stage: Strengthening Muscles, Tendons, and Veins] and [Fifth Stage: Strengthening Cells].
These were the best moments that shocked the girls with the speed of KE's breakthrough to a higher level. Alaya had been analyzing his condition from the moment he entered the cocoon, realizing that even the most brilliant geniuses she had seen, who managed to reach the {Fading Time Rank Forgotten Ages World}, took fifty years to achieve it.
Indeed, there are many types of energies such as Chi, Ki, Magic, Astra, Demon powers, Light powers, and countless other strange and wonderful energies.
Even with KE creating the Etheora energy himself, which shocked them greatly enough to elevate him to an unknown level, it was a mistake beyond all dimensions they were in to think that a person at the age of 16 (I see you zak_moe_5413) could reach the {Fading Time Rank Forgotten Ages World} without being 50 years old.
