My Multiverse Trip - Chapter 216
After leaving the I picked up a nice lunch along the way at a nearby restaurant always making sure to keep a lookout for random young masters. They kind of act like shitty Pokémon battles when your eating anywhere and just pop out of the woodwork.
Luckily I was able to avoid them with notice me not charms on the table after I ordered. But I swear I saw some looking my way just waiting to ambush me outside or something.
It was a pretty average meal for a cultivator world. In the stories they are always like oh the meat is amazing and it simple melts in your mouth and is the most delicious thing you’ve ever tasted. Yeah this is just a regular steak it may taste a little good but I’ve had better.
After I finish paying I make my way outside and start heading down the road but then they are suddenly there. A group of young masters standing in front of me. Internally I was screaming. One of their butlers approached me and slowly opened his mouth.
“Excuse me can you give us directions to the annual young masters convention we seem to have become lost.” he asks rubbing the back of his head with an embarrassed laugh.
The sound of that convention is absolutely horrifying I simply point them towards the place I was eating at. After receiving a healthy tip for my help, I bolt as fast as I can down the road to get away from this terrifying place.
Who knew young masters had an annual meeting?!?! That’s absolutely horrifying. I notice a sign I hadn’t seen before showing the time and place of the meeting and underneath that sign i see one more. Next week they are hosting the annual overprotective father’s son and dad dance. Scary.
I’ve never ran so fast in my life. As soon as I was out of sight I pop into my immortal realm to finally give it a look. I end up face to face with jasmine. I’m caught by surprise as she grabs me by the throat and lifts me off the ground quicker than I can even see. Even if I wanted to dodge I’m not fast enough.
“Who are you and where am i?” She asks giving me a deadly glare.
“Is that any way to repay the person who saved your life from God Slaying poison?” I choke out.
She keeps holding me by my throat. “Only the sky poison pearl can save someone from the god slaying poison. So you must be the owner of it. What’s to stop me from killing you and just taking it.” She asks releasing killing intent in my direction.
“Maybe the fact your only a spirit and I’m still extracting the poison from you. So you can try if you like but remember your bound to me right now.” She knows I’m telling the truth but she was only trying to intimidate me. After all she’s only a little girl who is all alone in the world now and in a strange place. She went through a tragic experience and is just trying to be brave and tough.
I look at the poor girl with pity before reaching out and patting her head. “You don’t have to worry, this is a safe place. I know all about what your going through. I must say your family would be so proud of you for staying strong when everything around you falls to pieces.”
She looks at me in shock letting me go with panic in her eyes. She starts to back away while tears form in her eyes. “What are you talking about! You don’t know anything!” She shouts as she keeps backing away.
Not minding the pain in my throat or the fact she is thousands of times stronger than me. I give my best smile and spread my arms wide and wrap her in a hug.
That’s all it takes to make the poor little girl breakdown. About and hour of crying and sobbing later with me whispering comforting words to her she passes out.
I buy a nice bed and blankets from the system and lay her down under the fruit tree before I get back to looking around my area.
The only things here are the small crystal water pond and a fruit tree which I think is called a power fruit tree. Other than that it’s just empty land surrounded by mist. It’s not too big or not too small.
I browse through the system looking for buildings. I want something nice and cozy and a bit modern. I also need quite a few rooms for the girls. I call in Hestia. Who better to design the perfect home than the goddess of homes herself.
We spend a few hours with her going over plans with me. We get a nice mansion style house it’s not too big as we want to be close to each other. We have a modern style kitchen and laundry room. I copied everything from the kingdoms library and installed a big one in the house magically. There’s a large dinner table and family room for watching TV together. There are rooms for all of the girls with just the basics in them I’ll let them design their own places as they want. I have a huge magically enhanced bedroom with a giant sized bed.
I add the hotspring noble phantasm to the bathroom so we have a place to relax. I also have regular bathrooms for the girls who are uncomfortable with sharing.
All in all I make it the perfect place to just get away from anything. I’ve also added a workshop next door for those who like to work and practice. There’s everything from forges to tool benches for making puppets. There’s an area for working on vehicles and and an area for weapon repairing. I know my ninja body wants to take a break from using so many clones for so long and just digest all the information he gathered.
Looking at everything so far it all looks cozy. I expect the girls and me to use this place alot. I don’t have the kingdom time difference turned on as it would mess with things. We can basically spend 100 days in here for 1 day out in the kingdom and real world. I carry jasmine inside and lay her down in my room before heading outside to set myself up a small garden.
