Advanced Sword Mastery. After getting to this point and creating two Sword Skills, the progress went back to a crawl. It's not even halfway yet and I still have no idea what will happen after creating all five.

For all I know, it might complete the awakening process of the Willful Sword's consciousness. But what would happen if I chose to change my sword? Do I have to wait until a new consciousness manifested on the new sword or it has a more simple explanation for it?

As of now, I still don't know and honestly, it's not something I really paid attention to. I'm currently satisfied at how the sword converse with me and it could still cut through a Transcendents' back. Perhaps it was because it was tempered from that lightning and the properties it managed to absorb. However, apart from partly using those properties such as the lightning and the darkness aura, nothing outstanding or worth the attention could be picked up from it.

Apart from me, the enemies or the people I encountered so far didn't have a weapon that exhibited the same traits as mine. Until Avelin.

"For now, keep it to yourself or close to your new weapon. Maybe Inca would be transferred to your new one."

Because I don't have any answer, this is the only advice I can give her.

Avelin readily believed my words and with a smile, she carefully put the great axe back to her Necklace.

After that, just like those times when I first arrived in this world, Avelin asked me to lay down with her. With her soft and little body snuggling close to me, I hugged her throughout the rest of the night.

She's still the same innocent girl. Although she always copied Erin's and the other girls' habits, when we're alone like this, it's already enough for her to be this close.

Well, sometimes, she would look up to ask me for a kiss.

Who would dare refuse such a request?

Kissing her luscious small lips, Avelin would eventually giggle in pure bliss from that experience.

In this way, the sun rose from the Horizon signaling us to get up in bed.

"I really love lying next to you, Daisuke."

"Un. Me too, let's do it often."

"Yes! Also, Daisuke. Can we do the act of making a child?"

This girl… I thought she wouldn't bring this up. Even though she's satisfied with the time that we shared and the exchanging of our affection through hugs and kisses, she's still a woman in love who wanted to bear the child of her man.

But this girl, the way she asked about it, it's really too innocent that I couldn't help but smile at it. This is, no doubt, Erin's influence. I'll reprimand that girl later when I visit her in her room.

Ah well, I'm also at fault. I remembered promising it with her, not only through the calls but also whenever my Incarnation will be sent to stay with them.

Furthermore, ever since doing it first with Yuko and Yumiko, I have already released all the restraints I had about our relationships. It's not like I'm forcing them, it will always be under our mutual consent.

Moreover, I already decided to marry all of them, it's not just a call for pleasure but an act of showing our affection to each other.

My wife in the World of Meta is already missing me in that big sofa bed of ours and then, there's Yumiko who I promised that we'll do it when I come back after closing those Dark World Zones. Not to mention, Sofiel who's straightforwardly hinting it at me when I controlled my Avatar to check on them. Fleur still hadn't thought of that despite her parents asking us to give them a grandchild they could dote on before they reach the end of their lifespan. They probably still have more than a decade so we will be able to grant it to them. For Jayna, well, she's still somewhat content for the nights we shared before rushing through the Dark World Zones.

I will eventually do it with all of them. It's just a matter of when. I love all of them and they're the same. It's a natural thing to do for couples… Besides, I'm not an indecisive guy who will just blush like an idiot when touched or confessed to by a girl. If I wait until everything settles down, it will be too dragged out. At the moment, we will enjoy each other's company whenever we can.

After agreeing with Avelin's suggestion, she asked for another kiss before we left her room to join the others.

When Avelin and I entered the room where we gathered together, which is apparently this fortress' meeting room, Yuko and the others were already there including Old Man Reol, Reinys, Caila and Noelle.

Upon seeing me, Zerina, who was acting normally, reddened almost instantly. It's easy to guess why. She remembered what we did.

Seeing that kind of reaction from her, the urge to tease her welled up once more but I stopped myself.

It's clearly not the time for that.

Even Erin, who was probably somewhat upset that I failed to visit her room last night was silently sitting in one of the chairs. Because of that, I pulled Avelin with me and sat next to her, surprising the Barbarian girl which eventually led to her mood changing for the better.

After a sumptuous breakfast, we started to discuss our next plan. Well, not really discuss but they're all waiting for what I plan to do next.

Along with Yuko and Irja providing minute details, I already informed them that I will bring everyone to the World of Meta in three days. Although we left Raiden to cleanup the remaining dregs of the Dark Beastmasters and those they corrupted, I still want to stay for a while just in case that descendant unexpectedly comes back. Moreover, there's still the upcoming Transcendent of Old Man Reol.

Ah. There were also some things I needed to check and confirm with the World's Will. Later I will call him out again. He might get angry again but that's already a minor matter. I'm going to ask him for the Portal Skill to this world as well as information about that End of the World Cliff. I still want to explore that place in the future, I will bring the lucky main characters of their world with me. Zerina, Avelin, Jayna, Nysia and perhaps Fleur or Sofiel were also like them

Originally, these Mortal Worlds were only allowing the Heroes they asked from Earth to enter which my Adaptability managed to bypass. However, now that we're Transcendents, asking for these Portal Skills that are like a gate pass to every world is something only the respective World's Wills of each world can give.

There's that method of forcefully opening a Portal but it's not an ideal method.

There's also the method of using a spaceship to travel from world to world and entering normally but pinpointing a world's coordinates was something we don't know yet and we don't have that kind of vessel to use.

So for now, we will be relying on these Portal Skills. I also need to find a way to get the Portals for my classmates' Otherworlds that will not involve me being summoned through Support Recall or hitchhiking a Heroes' Portal to that particular Otherworld. It would take a lot of time.

We only have less than a month or two weeks at most.

Closing every Portal before the reminder of two months from the Principal arrives will be hard to achieve by now.

Well, let's see what will be in store for us.

We'll be blitzing every world of their invading Transcendents and Portals. With a number of Rank 2 Transcendents and my overpowered buffs, as long as they don't run and hide in fright, they will be taken care of easily. The Mortal Ranks will then be left for the denizens of that world or the summoned Hero to take care of.

By taking care of the Mortal Worlds' Portals and Transcendents, we might be able to close some of the Breached Portals located in the Mortal Worlds if not all.

There's a possibility that the Transcendent Worlds created their own breach by referencing those Breached Portals. I have to consider every possibility, even the worst ones.

After a lengthy discussion and formulating the plan with the help of everyone's input, we got the time for ourselves once more.

Old Man Reol went out to prepare for his Transcendent Trials. Erin and some of my girls helped by sparring with him and gave him pointers on what to expect inside it.

While they're doing that, I was either with Yuko or Irja who had nothing left to do except to wait for our departure.

Later that day, Erin and Avelin finally broke through to the 5th Stage King Realm creating their fourth Pillars after another Absorption Session.

After all the absorption sessions we had, each of the four had just finished consuming one basketball-sized stone.

With how the number of energy stones I gathered from that Dimensional Space, the prospect of them completing the Mortal Pathway was now brighter.

Soon enough, the night arrives once more.

Naturally, my feet delivered me to one of my Companions' rooms.

"Erin, do you mind if I come in?"

Not a second later, the door immediately opened and Erin's grumpy face appeared.

"Hurry up and enter, monster. You really picked me last, huh?"

This girl, she's upset again. Among all of them, she's the one who's the most vocal about this. I guess I need to show her that I'm not picking favorites among them.

"I didn't pick you last. Your room is just the farthest from where I came from. Aren't I here now? I will stay here until morning… that is if you don't mind." Stepping inside her room, I firmly closed the door behind me before scooping her up in my arms. Due to that, Erin's circuit shorted that instead of continuing to nag at me, she pulled on my collar and took the initiative to kiss me.

I guess I'm in for a long night again.
