Now that we're back in the World of Spirits, my stats also went back to normal without any debuff. Though my stats were higher even with that conversion debuff, seeing my base stats back to how it really was originally was satisfying.

Also… the system finally did its freaking job!

Ah. Maybe it couldn't do it inside the dimension because the connection was weakened? Well, in any case, it's great that it's finally been updated.

It generated the Universal Power Level based on my knowledge. However, is this correct? Did it run some simulation to generate it based on my knowledge?

That old man doesn't have a System so… there's really no numerical value for them to gauge it, they just felt it through their senses.

Err... That Alien Overlord probably wasn't born in the Universe yet to build the G*iger Counter.

With the formula it generated, it really put me in the Rank 4 Mortal category.

66.72. The threshold for Rank 5 is 71 and that's the weakest. I'm close. If I added another 4 Heroes in the support list it will surely elevate my rank to 5.

Also, the Pledges tab was removed and was replaced by Companions.

Err… Because of that, even Yuko and Yumiko were now both listed together with the other girls.

But these Companions, the thing I learned from the Spirit Queen was probably one of its factors as to why it changed to this. The convergence of destinies.

Now, it listed their names, their world of origin and their current Universal Rank. Only the Heroes were Rank 5 while Jayna and Zerina were behind them. Avelin and Erin probably couldn't find that much opportunity there since the Dark Beastmasters went into hiding.

Now that they're clearly connected to me. If my system ranks up, will that tab also get some kind of bonus?

The possibility is high. They're now as important as those Supported Individuals. If I can provide benefits for them through this system, then good. I'd love to see that. The stronger they are, the more relieved will I be.

The other change was the Contained Energy turning into Energy Source. Because of my discovery about how the higher energies work, the system also adjusted it according to my knowledge. The Psyche Energy is still a question mark while the Flux Energy is only a Level 1 Energy.

I don't know if it will be upgraded but considering that my Adaptability can still be leveled up, the possibility is high.

"Welcome back!"

Spirit Queen Yse greeted when she saw us emerging from the ruins. Her cheerfulness couldn't be hidden when she spotted the silver-haired girl whose body build and features were similar to Yumiko. Well, of course, except her revealing shrine outfit.

That is the Spirit Queen's lost sister, Yra. She's only a Transformed Spirit Beast so there were still imperfections to her humanoid form compared to the Spirit Queen.

Upon seeing her sister, it was as if all life came back from her eyes.

She dashed towards Yse and jumped inside her arms.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have sent you in without knowing what's inside."

Yse apologized to her sister and also to the others who survived. All of them, upon seeing the sun of the World of Spirits also started crying. They survived the seemingly unavoidable death that was waiting for them.

Only now that they got out of that dimension did the situation finally sink into them.

"I thought I would be eaten. The others were… They even showed us how they killed them, skinned them and chopped them up. I… I thought that was the end."

Yra detailed her experience amidst her cries. Even as a Spirit Beast, they have these kinds of emotions. Maybe because of their ability to Transform into a Humanoid form, they're also slowly turning into human-like. The savageness they experienced during their early life was being slowly casted off.

That's why Ezyn and Yse were giving houses to every Transformed Spirit. To let them experience how to live as a human.

After they calmed down, Yse called on flying Spirit Beasts to transport us back to their Palace. The place isn't appropriate to talk about what happened inside and also, she wanted to give us some time to rest while she catches up with her sister.

"Daisuke."

Yumiko appeared in my room after we settled back into the palace. As if finding the most comfortable place for her, she fit herself next to me and adjusted my arm to let it rest on her shoulder.

"What's wrong?"

I looked at her as she started rubbing her cheeks on me like a cat.

"Another system message appeared. Something about being listed as your Companion."

She stopped for a bit and answered.

Seeing her acting like a cat, I couldn't help but reach my hand on her face and caress it. Due to that, she changed her rubbing target from my chest to my hand.

Yumiko is really different when we're alone like this. It's not that I'm complaining. Watching her act like this is satisfying by itself.

Just like how Yuko always wanted me to hug her when we're alone.

"I see. The system notified you. Something changed from it after we left that dimension. That new line was created."

"What does it mean, being listed as your Companion?"

She already knew what it means, she probably just wanted to ask me so we'll have a topic of conversation and to hear me say something about her being my companion.

Though that's how she introduced me when we first arrived in this world. The companion this time has a different meaning.

"Isn't it just the literal meaning? Like you wished, I'll continue walking this path with you."

Like I thought. Upon hearing it, Yumiko flashed a satisfied smile as she inched closer to me.

"I bet it's not just me who was listed there."

Yumiko then said in a teasing tone.

"Err… you know, everyone whose destiny was tied with me."

I couldn't take it to lie to her so I spilled who else became listed as my companion. She was there when the Spirit Queen was talking about destinies so she already has an idea on who were the other Companions.

"You playboy."

Upon saying that, Yumiko tightened her hold on me as if she's afraid I would escape her grasp.

"Now that you mentioned it, I somehow became one."

No. It's not just somehow. I deliberately became one...

"That's because you never rejected anyone who came to confess to you. If I have to guess, that's also what happened in the other worlds, right?"

Ah. She's right. Zerina, Avelin, Erin, Jayna and Yumiko. I never rejected anyone. I only put two years as a deterrent to the Barbarian Girls but I never rejected them. About Zerina, I was even the one who first initiated, though it's not a deliberate attempt, it somehow leads to that.

Only with Yuko did I have the notion to reject. Because of how it was slapped onto my face by the Principal, I reluctantly accepted the engagement. However, throughout our time in the World of System, Yuko grew into me.

What would've happened if I rejected that engagement? Will the Principal let me leave? Will I even encounter Yumiko and the others?

Maybe if that happened, I would just die ignorant when the Invading World finally arrived on Earth because the Heroes died in their Otherworlds and it became assimilated.

"… How did you know?"

I only managed to utter that since she's spot on.

Yumiko shook her head and sighed.

"You know, I had this thought of opening that brain of yours and see what you're thinking."

"You and Jayna said almost the same thing."

Though the words aren't the same, the meaning is.

"Because you're thickheaded at times, Daisuke. Do you regret not rejecting us?"

Yumiko looked up and stared at my eyes, maybe to see if what I will answer is a lie.

"No, why would I? Also, it's not as if I'll accept just anyone. I also came to like you so…"

There were Reinys, Caila and Noelle back in the World of System but I never had the thought of liking them. Even though they all possess a beauty of their own, I only became interested in Yuko and Zerina.

Err... But I once thought of charming them to control them in case they wanted to betray Yuko. That was part of my dark thoughts, eh?

"I see. Then all is good. Let me rest here for a while."

Yumiko smiled, satisfied with my answer before she went back to using my chest as her headrest.

"You can stay here if you want, you know?"

It's not like I'll do anything to her, if she's more comfortable here with me then I'll let her stay.

"If I did, Jayna would also do the same."

I see. That's what was holding her back.

"Then why don't you two stay here?"

"Look at this guy. We still wanted to be alone with you, at least."

Yumiko pouted and tried to bite my arm.

Err... I'll use their line this time. Sometimes, they're also hard to understand...
