After giving a watered-down version of how Raynor got to this point, his best buddy was at obvious shock, not in a normal sense obviously...
Living in a small town, like Raynor he barely has any friends in this place, simply because people are more interest in other things that some fantasy BS.
From working in gardens to playing games outside like football or basketball, not many of them spend time indoors like Raynor...
So the only way for him to get a friend is... obviously to indoctrinate someone to way of Otaku, eventually, he obviously did, but not to the same degree as him, but his best buddy Arnold or Arno for short, became someone where they spend hours playing games or watching anime like Naruto or Bleach.
While he is more towards guns and western stuff, Raynor is more towards superpowers and Eastern stuff...
"So...you can cultivate?" That was the first thing he asked...not about his girls...or upgraded house...or his changed looks...
"Well, yeah...I did some of it..." Raynor shrugged, he did try sitting in the lotus position and absorb energy from the air, it never lasted long through...
*Snort*
"I really doubt you could sit down and meditate for extended periods of time..." His best friend shook his head, remembering some of the classes, like Chemistry and Physics, were Raynor would simply space out from boredom, instead of listening, what teacher says.
He is someone who would not do things he doesn't like, even if it means getting a negative mark, he is stubborn in his own unique way, that's why Arno believes Raynor would very quickly got bored even if sitting in the lotus position in extended periods of time will give him more power.
"You right there, Instead I cheated my way to top..." Raynor 'proudly' said how he cheated his way to godhood.
"Like Skyrim? 'tgm' all the way?" Arno said with a raised eyebrow.
"Indeed... now then..." Raynor pulled out his phone for a second.
"Anyway...I was planning to go somewhere, since Qingyue... was asking me to go to ATG canon..." Raynor said to his friend as he went to Wuxiaworld on his phone.
"W-Wait ATG?" His eyes widened for a second.
"Yes, ATG... I am thinking of invading it, and I want to see the ice-cold Qingyue..." Raynor said to him, as he went over to chapter 204 which is named 'Ranking Tournament: Start'.
Once he selected it, there was a notification on his HUD.
New gateway to ATG universe was created.
"So that girl who was making sandwiches is...no way! she is like 180 degrees different the one in the book!" Arno said that same moment he sensed chill going down his spine, he looked to his side he saw the same girl who was making sandwiches sending daggers at him.
"I suggest don't mention her counterpart...to her at this point, she is quite...pissed... at her..." Arno gulped down nerviously, he quickly nodded at him.
Qingyue walked down and took a seat next to Raynor, she cuddled closer to him.
"I have heard you planning to go there...I am coming with you... and why don't your best friend represent our Holy Grounds in this tournament?" Qingyue said with a massive grin, she expected for Arno to turn pale but, she was messing with fellow Otaku...
"Can I fight YC? Oh, I want to fight him! but I need cultivation to do that..." Qingyue blinked hearing that.
She looked at Raynor for explanation.
"He actually...really dislikes him... that the reason he 'dropped it'..." Raynor explained to her, while Qingyue slowly nodded, she herself stopped reading a few times, simply because they rarely mention her!!!
"So... I guess it's settled..." Raynor got up from his couch, they were sitting in a room next to the kitchen which used to be Raynor's old room, now its turned to the second living room, as he moved out to the first floor...
"I am going to ask Lightning or Serah if they want to go as well..." Raynor walked out for a second, Arno quickly followed as the Ravenhead girl was sending daggers at him...
"Dude... how you tamed that girl is beyond me..." his blond friend said as chill went his spine...again...
"You do realise that she is a cultivator who can hear several hundred metres away easily..." Raynor smirked at his best friend who turned pale.
"Sh1t..."
"Indeed..."
Raynor and Arno arrived at the living room where, Farron sisters with Xing Tong are watching 'Animal Planet'...
More precisely Younger duo are watching while, Lightning is reading 'Illustrated Science'
While his mother and Cang Yue is actually outside doing something at the back garden.
It only leaves his father who is doing something in the Garage...
'I should start bringing more of my girls over, but for now...'
"Light, you wanna go to check out a tournament?" The girl in question slowly nodded, she looked at her sister who was engrossed into the Tv screen...
The redhead was no different as well.
They didn't even notice him actually, he feels pity for his father, as this TV is usually his...but now... oh well, there is a new one in the kitchen...
"Alright! I was bored anyway... there was that Interesting show about weapons on 'Discovery' but...as you can see..." Lightning motioned towards the pair on the couch...
"Shh!!" Both girls who were watching TV said that to Lightning at the same time...
The 'Blonde' rolled her eyes, she is losing her sister to this world's entertainment...
Eventually, she got up and left the main living room with Raynor and Arno, they returned to his old room turned second living room, where Qingyue already was prepared to travel...
By putting on some sandals...
She was dressed in simple shorts and t-shirt, these kind of clothes are the norm in this reality, but it would scandalous in cultivation world...
Lightning was no different as well, she had put simple shoes, she was quite actually excited to finally see a reality where people are obsessed with martial arts.
"So...how does..." Before the blonde can ask how it's going to happen, the world just turned grey, he only saw Raynor put a hand on him, and then it just happened.
Seconds later white transparent doors appeared and Raynor motioned to follow him.
When the group passed through, they appeared in a mountainous region.
When Lightning and Arno saw the size of these mountains they were blown away, even Raynor who was living in this place for a year, he still gets awed, by the cultivation world scaling...
Raynor touched his pendant and slowly removed it, he felt like he took off some winter clothing, and felt more free.
Qingyue saw what, he did so she followed his example and removed her pendant as well.
Both Arno and Light saw him without disguise, his lovely 'Blonde' girl was taken about, just how hot, and... even manly he looked...
"Damn... you didn't tell me you look like one of those 'perfect' characters from anime..." Arno said to him, then he looked at Qingyue, he felt chill going down his spine, now he knows why she is like that, she is one of those 'dark' beauties, he knows Raynor has a thing for them...alongside princesses and pink heads...
But Arno prefers his blonde bombshell girls, like Yang from RWBY...
"Now then let's get you some cultivation and then we can participate in this tournament..." Raynor looked around for a second, he then took his whole group, to top of one of these mountains.
It was so fast that neither Light or Arno comprehended what just happened.
The only thing they knew is that they are standing on top of a mountain, next to a waterfall, the loud sound of falling water can be easily heard.
Raynor clapped his hands together, and slowly separated it, like magic, a fruit appeared in between his palms, it looked like a metallic silver fruit, similar to an apple.
"Now rejoice Arno, because I shall grant two of your wishes!" Raynor said that with fake bombastic voice, as he handed over this metallic fruit to him.
"Really mate? fake priest?" Arno deadpanned, Raynor shrugged his shoulders.
"I was rewatching Fate little bit..." Arno sighed and looked at the metallic fruit.
"This will give you cultivation of Sky Profound, and talent to reach peak Divine Master, and of course I put something a little bit of extra..." Arno looked at the fruit hearing that.
"Would it be better if it looked like a golden apple? it looks like I am eating metal..." Instead of being impressed by the fruit, he comments on its looks.
Just like Raynor, he isn't really impressed easily...
"I am sticking with the original designs... that's how chakra fruit looked, now eat it up, the whole tournament starts in a few minutes." Raynor motioned for him to eat.
The Blond did it with a shrug, after he consumed he wanted to ask something about his second wish...
But...
Raynor pushed him into the waterfall...
"WHAT...TA FUCKKKK" the blond guy went down with water stream...
Both of his girls looked at him with raised eyebrow...
"What? he complained once to me how he wanted to sky diving... so I am fulfiling his dream..." Raynor explained himself.
"Not that I am complaining...but will he survive that fall?" Lightning asked with little bit concern.
"Nah... he is fine, I gave him some 'plot armour' for this..." Raynor explained with a casual hand wave.
He then brought both of his girls to bottom, where falling water lands.
Raynor can see his blond buddy, is already on the beach couching some water.
He looked at Raynor for second, both girls though he will be pissed what Raynor did...but...
"F*ck you mate... but...it was..Awesome!!!" Raynor looked at his girls.
"He is crazy in his own way...same as me..." Lightning could only agree with him, she still remembers how...her...boyfriend literally invaded her world for her and Serah...
She would have known that this guy is crazy in his own way to be friends with Raynor.
"Well, you should have your cultivation now?" Raynor asked him with hands in his pockets.
"I do...It's a unique feeling..." Raynor nodded hearing, that he can sense [First Of Sky Profound] cultivation from him.
"Good, try using it..." Raynor asked of him, the blonde nodded and slowly got on his feet, he then instinctively started to float...
"Woah, this is awesome!!!" The Blonde shouted in excitement.
Qingyue chuckled seeing that, she looked at Raynor remembering something, the guy in question looked at his girlfriend.
"What?" He asked with a raised eyebrow, she waved her hand at him as if its nothing.
Eventually the whole group left towards Heavenly Sword Villa...
~~~~~~ Heavenly Sword Villa~~~~~~
A certain a redhead was sitting on her bed inside sky Poison pearl, just moments ago she felt a massive shift in the surrounding atmosphere.
Her Heavenly Slaughter Star God memories are screaming at her that something is coming... something insanely powerful...
She can hear how, that elder is explaining things about this tournament to Yun Che.
"Yun Che something is coming... something very powerful...someone is going to crash this tournament..." Jasmine explained with cold and chilly voice.
Yun Che stiffed for second hearing that.
"Are you sure? I don't sense anything..." The teenager said with a confused voice.
Before the Crimson haired girl can say anything.
Her Divine Sense picked up massive use of Space laws, on the scale she never sensed before...
It's as if the whole quadrant of space around Blue Pole Star has been locked out.
Then very next moment massive pressure slammed into the whole stadium, it didn't matter if it was Spirit or Sovereign or even Divine Master... everyone dropped on their knees...
"And here we are... Just on time don't you think..." Jasmine heard a teenager talk.
Her mouth opened wide...
"A-A-A True God!!!" Yun Che picked up what she said, the black-haired teenager looked at with his own shock at these new arrivals...
`What such beings doing here!!!'
it's kinda weird how everyone is so against MC having another Otaku joining him...
I mean I need to make plot someway? And I do believe the best way is obviously an argument...
(Which mecha is the best? which Dojutsu, or zanpakuto)
Argument starts and they go to explore and find out...to prove the point which is better, and if they stop cataclysm or a war, get the girl or two... or more ways to use powers... that even better...
