Otaku Cultivator Exploring The Multiverse - Chapter 62

To say that Erina was nervous was an understatement! It was the first time she invited someone her age to her house, and it’s not even related to business.

So, it’s double the nervousness!

Hisako, who was standing not for from her was looking at her with tired, she had to endure over an hour of nearly panicking Erina Nakiri.

From checking her clothes to making sure her hair was perfect, it’s as if she was going on date, instead of inviting someone to her house…

“Hisako how do I look?” Erina asked Hisako for fourth time now.

“Just like last time Erina-sama,” Hisako said with slight sigh escaping her mouth, earning a frown from Nakiri Heiress.

“You are no help Hisako! tell me how do I look!?” The orange-haired girl insisted on Hisako opinion on her looks.

Hisako just sighed and decided to answer the same question for the fourth time now.

“Erina-sama you great, and I doubt someone like Valeron-san cares about looks in the first place, if he truly is very powerful cultivator then he can see through people looks and see who they truly are,” Hisako said that in a very serious tone.

While Erina just looked slightly stunned at her secretary.

Then she took a deep breath and got herself together, she can’t be a ball of nerves in front of someone she wants to impress.

“You right Hisako, I am going to check the kitchen to make sure we have everything we need.” Erina started to walk before she even finished saying that.

Her secretary just sighed, she already knows that kitchen and ingredients included, were already ready before the day even started, her Mistress prepared everything last night!

Instead of saying anything she just followed her…

~~~

*Door Bell”

Both Erina and Hisako heads perked up, they were quite spooked by that, the gatekeeper didn’t notified that anyone has passed through.

But then she remembered who supposed to visit her…

It was a little bit stupid of her to believe that someone like Raynor would use normal means of travelling.

So, she quickly walked over to the door and opened.

She saw her new… friend and his very eager little sister, as last time she was dressed in crimson, but this time it was a slightly different dress, it was leaned more towards Chinese robes then Western dresses.

While her new friend’s sister likes crimson, she started to see a pattern in him as well.

It seems he has a thing for eastern dragons on his t-shirts, or at least she thinks it’s eastern one, as the ones she sees has wings.

‘I don’t think they have wings, well it’s something for later…’ She brushed this curiosity aside for now.

“Good Morning! Come in!” Erina quickly motioned for them to come in.

Erina eagerly showed them towards the living room, the girl in question was running on caffeine, have not slept properly for the past three nights, plus she was running her booth, not that such small things will keep her away from what she wants to learn…

“Any refreshments? Tea, coffee? or maybe soft drinks?” Erina quickly asked, Hisako wanted to facepalm for second.

Raynor slightly chuckled seeing her acting this way.

“It’s fine, just breath Erina, but I guess Tong’er wants her strawberries dessert as soon as possible, she was bouncing around since early morning.” He looked at his little sister who had look of ‘betrayal’

“Ray! you said you won’t going to tell to anyone about it!” The girl had angry pout which was directed towards her elder brother.

“Well, Erina needs to know how much you want her desserts.” Raynor shrugged at her angry look.

She just crossed her arms and looked away.

“Anyway, thanks for having us over.” Raynor smiled towards the host.

Erina tried not to blush when she saw that smile.

“It’s fine!” She quickly waved her hands in from of her.

“I hardly get any guest who are not here for business or some food tasting,” Erina said the last part slightly with dark undertone.

Raynor eyes slightly narrowed for a millisecond but then returned to normal.

Thanks to his absurd senses, one of them being borderline empathy which he still has even in his extremely nerfed state, so he felt a swing in her emotions… it was slightly extreme one at that.

‘Right… her father needs a lesson or two on child-raising…’ Raynor internally hummed for second, thinking on interfering in that…

“I know that feeling.” Xing Tong said in an understanding tone, both girls looked with interest towards the crimson-haired girl, wondering what’s her story.

Realising that atmosphere is getting weird, Raynor gently clapped his hands, getting everyone’s attention.

“Right, why don’t we get some tea?” He smiled while saying that, Erina slightly smiled back at him, somewhat grateful for change of conversation

“Yes, of course, Hisako if you would?” Erina asked her secretary, who nodded and went to prepare tea for them.

For a few seconds there was absolute silence, and it was slowly ‘killing’ Erina, while Xing Tong and Raynor just casually enjoyed the quiet, until of course Raynor decided to save the nervous Nakiri heiress.

“Well, I know you have questions and I can answer some of them.” He said while leaning his back into the couch.

“Are you Immortal? I mean you are giving vibes of someone extremely mysterious, but once I understood somethings about cultivation I realised what that mysterious vibe is…” Raynor raised his eyebrow slightly he was expecting questions about food not, about himself at least for now.

“I…think it’s power.” She said that after thinking for a few moments.

Xing Tong who was sitting on the opposite side of Erina just nodded at her observation.

“You are right on that Nakiri, you are the first mortal to see through that in my elder brother.” Xing Tong said that, she already has small bit respect for this girl who is just a mortal yet already has such observation skills.

“What my little sister said is true, and to your question, yes I am immortal, in a literal sense, Erina, I was expecting question-related to food, but you got me there,” Raynor said with slightly amazed look, it’s refreshing to be wrong from time to time.

Hearing answer from Raynor directly, really shook her, she was right now sitting in front of a real Immortal!

“…Wow…that’s just…” Seeing such reaction from her Raynor looked at his little sister.

“Why don’t you take her to the kitchen, I think it would help her to get over.”

Xing Tong slowly nodded at the suggestion, besides she wants to see how she makes those desserts!

Raynor snickered seeing how smaller girl is borderline carrying the shell shocked Erina.

~~~

It took a few moments for the Heiress to get over that, not only that but being carried by a smaller girl helped to get over even quicker.

“Your shock is much better than the ones people experience in my world, they usually grovel at our feet, and comment on our ‘greatness’ it’s… quite refreshing experience.” Xing Tong said with somewhat thankful voice, the redhead starts to like this chef girl even more after seeing her reaction.

Erina blinked several times then started to giggle.

“I know that feeling as well! I was experiencing this since as longs as I can remember!”

Xing Tong nodded, she can see that happening, the chef girl’s cooking is just at that level!

“Yes, that’s what I said when I knew the feeling, but anyway!” She slightly rubbed her hands together, Erina even heard a hungry gulp coming from Xing Tong.

“Can we get to the part where you do your… magic?” The crimson-haired girl said eagerly.

“Of course, since you can eat that dessert… quite a bit, I think we should make a bigger bowl of it?” Erina offered.

“Of course the bigger the better!” Xing Tong immediately agreed with Erina’s offer.

~~~

Erina didn’t expect to find someone who was raised into such similar household like hers, and thus she wanted to know more about Xing Tong situation.

To which The redhead had no problem telling too.

Only that her answer would quite shocked the Chef girl not as much as before, but still…

She was similar to her only the difference was the scale…

She was heiress of the biggest food makers company in the world which could say the rule people through stomach.

Why Xing Tong is Crown Princess of massive world-sized empire.

Now the Chef was interested how the hell did Xing Tong became adopted sister to Raynor.

The only thing she could think off is that his status was even higher than Xing Tong parents who allowed such thing to happen, she came with that decision simply because if the girl’s parents are similar to hers, then how Raynor forced them to hand the girl over?

“Is Raynor-san a…God?” Erina came to realisation.

Xing Tong for second stiffed, her eyes slightly widened and looked at the Orange-haired girl with shock.

“How did you came with this conclusion?” The redhead very curiously asked.

“Your… answers filled in the gaps I needed, you told me that your… ‘Royal Star Realm’ is considered one of the strongest Empires in your Reality, and if your childhood is similar to mine, then your parents will never allow for you so easily be adopted by Raynor-san, this leads to a single conclusion that, He is more powerful than your whole Empire… and would be someone like a…God?” Erina explained to Xing Tong, she was not a hundred per cent certain but that was her hunch.

“…Most impressive… and you are right about my…father more exact, my mother was far to good for him, and once again about Ray taking me as his little sister you were right too, my father had no say in this… because Ray was just too powerful…” Xing Tong explained with a sigh, she was once again impressed by this chef girl, her deduction ability is in a realm of its own.

“You didn’t answer the question…” Erina pointed out, and Xing Tong just smiled at her in turn.

“Yes I did not, because you already know the answer, besides… it would be better if he answers that himself.”

Erina just huffed for second, and continued to make the dessert, while the Princess just happily looked at the ‘magic’ happening in the kitchen.

~~~

Around twenty minutes later all three ladies returned around the same time.

Hisako had trolley with tea set, while Xing Tong had a large bowl of strawberry ice cream dessert, only Erina was hands-free and deep in thought.

Once they are back, Erina looked at Raynor, checking him from every angle possible, until he lifted his head from his manga and looked at the Heiress with confused look.

He was far too deep in Bleach manga to notice Erina’s heated look.

“Whatever ideas I had how a God suppose to look, yours was not one of them.” the Heiress said with a relaxed sigh.

She was a little bit afraid when she realised the sheer power of a god and the natural reaction to that, but then, she saw how Raynor looked while sitting on the couch with that slightly dorky look while reading manga destroyed that fear.

“So! I figured out who you are,” Erina said while taking her seat, opposite to Raynor.

“Hmm? and that is?” He curiously asked.

“A God.” Hisako who was pouring tea into a teacup nearly lost the whole thing, but was able to control herself.

“Quite close actually, but Godhood is… very broad term.” Raynor closed his manga and it vanished, he has no reason to be discreet anymore, his action only made the Heiress to accept the fact even further.

“So, I am right then? Tell me how world travelling works? If possible can I travel with you?” Erina asked with an excited look, if she can travel with God then there is nothing to be afraid of!

While Raynor just smiled, while internally that smile was several times bigger….
