Chapter 226: Ch 226: Return to the World
After Rein crossed through the portal, his body suddenly relaxed. The spiritual energy came rushing in and completely filled his body. He was still badly hurt as his perfect body was only able to release a little bit of its full potential, so Rein was unable to completely heal in seconds.
But as he got back his spiritual energy and was again able to use the rain stones, Rein was not worried about anything else. So he liked around him. All of his lovers were also there getting up from the ground. So fortunately they did not get separated from Rein.
After seeing that Rein was badly hurt, they immediately came to his side and started to worry about him. Rein told them and he just needed to rest for some time and he would be alright. So all the ladies started to guard him while Rein started resting.
Only Mei started to investigate the area where they had fallen from the void. After investigating the area for a few minutes, she found out that the area where they were, was actually a remote island quite far away from the civilization.
This island even had a great beast living in it and there were also three great beasts living in the sea areas near the island. So it was actually a dangerous place for regular humans to be. But for Rein and his lovers, it was not a problem.
The great beast of this island was only the the pattern condensation realm so it was not a threat. And the three aquatic great beasts were all unable to come to the ground, so their realm did not matter for the time being.
After making sure that the island was safe, Mei started using the Spatial law to find where the nearest human settlement was.
The time and space in the void was messed up. So she had no idea how long they were out for. They had stayed in the void for months but that was actually not a long enough time for a true god. But there was a possibility that thousands of years might have passed here in the world while they were out.
After experiencing and witnessing the void, Mei's control of the spatial law has improved a lot. So she was able to find a human village fairly quickly. But this place was quite far away from the island but moving Rein in his current condition was not ideal. So she was not sure what to do next.
After consulting the other ladies, they decided that Lan and Himiko would be going to that village. Currently Lan was the second best user of space law just after Rein. So traveling was much simpler with her around. As for Himiko she was going to guard Lan if anything unexpected happened. The other ladies were also not planning to slack off and they also had things to do.
...
With her teleportation, Lan arrived a few miles away from the village. This village was located in the southern part of the continent and it was a place that they had never visited before. Himiko was also with her and scanned the surroundings to see if any dangers were nearby or not.
After finding nothing problematic, they went toward the village. They wanted to find out about the recent events from some of the villagers. Lan was quite good at communication so after meeting a lady who came out of the village to get some water from the river, she was able to gather quite some information from her.
One thing that relaxed both of the ladies was the fact not much time had passed since they left this world. It had only been 5 years since then which was longer than the time that the ladies had experienced in the void but still it was not a crazy amount of time.
All the ladies had expected the worst and had feared that thousands of years might have passed in their absence. But they were happy to know that it was not the case. As the news about the human and demon war. This place was far far away in a remote corner, so that lady had no idea. It was actually fortunate that their village was using the same time measuring system as the rest of the human race.
After that Mei and Himiko did not enter the village instead went to the nearest city which was still hundreds of miles away from this village. So it was really a very remote village. They had guessed that no one in the village would had answers to the questions that they had so they decided to immediately go to the nearest city which would be able to provide them with more information.
After reaching that city, they were able to find the sect which was in charge of the city. It was a sect called "Sky King Palace" and the ladies had never heard of it. But a sect would definitely have information related to the situation of human demon war no matter how small this sect was. So Himiko and Mei immediately paid the sect a visit.
In normal times they would enter the sect from the front gate following proper etiquette and after informing the sect about their visit. But the current time was special and the ladies were in a hurry. So they did not bother with the proper etiquette and secretly went to the sect master's chambers.
The sect master most probably had the most information in the whole sect so he was the best person to interrogate. Lan had even brought a few special talismans created by Suzu with them to make his whole process easier.
Suzu had her mind reading talent and after reaching the true god realm, she was able to create talismans which were able to replicate a little bit of it. As the sect master of this Sky King Palace was only at the pattern condensation realm, he was a very easy target for the ladies.
The sect master was an old man who was alone in his room. This made the task even easier and Lan immediately used the mind reading talisman on him. He did not even notice something had happened with him and just continued meditating.
Just one talisman was not enough to find anything special from the memories of this person as these talismans were only able to extract a little bit of memory with each use. Only after using 15 of them, finally Lan was able to learn some information on the topic that she was looking for.
After that Lan used 3 more of these talismans and made sure that this person had no more important information, she and Himiko left the sect master's chamber. And after coming out Lan started teleporting towards the island where Rien was.
Himiko was surprised as Lan liked to be in a hurry but Lan told her that there was no time to waste and she would tell what she learnt to everyone together. So Himiko did not stop her and also returned back to the island alongside her.
Now what was the explosive news that Lan had managed to learn ?
