The Laziest System: Sign-Up System

"Sealing Technique is unique to youkai and anyone with chakra in their body. Why? Each straight line, curved line, and even circle in our sealing formula needs chakra to fuel it. Why does our technique need chakra to make it work? It is because the Sealing Technique does not require divinity to function."

I look at the professor and take some notes. This is the first Sealing lecture the college has started. I am lucky to have awakened my chakra before this class reached the next level of teaching and left me behind without knowing the basics.

"There are seven major symbols divided into seven branches from each of the seven major symbols. These symbols are called the 49 Stars of Creation. The first seven Major Symbols are the fuel and foundation for your seal, while the 49 Stars of Creations will be the symbols that expand that foundation. Other than those fifty-six symbols, eight more symbols are known as the Eight Outer Ring. They are the stops that stabilize the seal formation so it does not become unstable and release an explosion."

The professor starts writing seven symbols on the board and says, "For now, we will learn about the first seven symbols!"

==//==

I release a sigh and smile a little. It was a great lecture. I already know the basic formula from Yasaka, but this lecture lets me expand that foundation and experiment on my own. Of course, I need to build a barrier before experimenting in case something is wrong.

The professor was also kind enough to provide us with a sealing brush that makes the chakra flow easier and a dozen sealing scrolls to practice the explosive formula, the easiest formula among thousands.

I only need to continue practicing my calligraphy. Then, I can start to experiment with many kinds of sealing formulas.

I nod and leave the university grounds, where one of Yasaka's guards stands in front of the gate while disguised as a human. He walks forward, bows a little, and says, "Sir Ryan. Lady Yasaka is waiting for you in the palace. There are guests waiting for you, sir." "Right. Sure. Take me there." "Please get inside the car, sir. We will take you to the palace."

I nod and get inside the car. I wonder who the guests are.

After a few minutes of driving, we arrived in front of a massive palace full of guards. I blink a second when I feel a familiar power inside the palace. I recognize the power of the sun and storms. One of the servants takes me to the meeting room, and when she opens the door, I see Amaterasu and Susanoo alongside Yasaka in the room.

Amaterasu sits in the middle of the seat, Susanoo on her right side, while Yasaka sits on her left.

"Please take a seat, Ryan Hernandes."

I nod, walk next to Yasaka, and sit next to her. After I take a seat, Amaterasu looks at me and says,

"The reason why I call you here is because Susanoo and I have a question for you."

"Please ask away, Lady Amaterasu."

Amaterasu nods and says.

"I want to ask about the reason why the connection between us gets so weak the other days."

Ah, that. Yeah. I know that will be a problem. I did not feel the connection weakening because I still had Susanoo's blessing at full power when visiting the Fairy Tail's world. Should I tell them the truth? I look at Yasaka and see her nodding her head.

'You should tell them, Ryan, ' Grandeeney suddenly says in my mind. 'From the look of it, they will not dig deeper if you do not want to tell them, but at the same time, their trust in you will be significantly lower.'

'And I agree with her.' Akatosh agrees with Grandeeney, 'I did not feel anything but worry from them. You should tell them the truth. There is also a matter of whether they can feel if you lie.'

Right. Well, the cat is out of the box. 

I take a deep breath and explain my power to Amaterasu and Susanoo. After explaining it to them, Amaterasu looks at me with a star in her eyes while Susanoo stands up and says,

"Don't you dare to go and explore that place alone, sister."

"But!"

"No means no. The last time you explored the world, you sank an island."

I blink for a second and whisper to Yasaka.

"What does he mean by that?"

"Lady Yasaka once sank the entire island of Yamatai because their queen thought that she could replace Lady Yasaka as the Goddess of their island. She gets mad and releases a sunbeam from the sky to kill all living beings on the island, and then she asks Lord Susanoo to sink the entire island into the sea. Not only that, but she also asks Lord Ryujin to see the entire island so no creatures can find it."

Yikes. I don't know the real reason why the Island of Yamatai has gone like this.

"How about they come with me?"

Amaterasu looks at Yasaka and me with a hopeful expression. Yasaka and Susanoo decided to look at me, waiting for my answer. I can only sigh and say.

"I don't mind taking you there, Lady Amaterasu. However, I don't think we can do it now. Give me a month or two before I take you there. I don't know the reason why Great Red is willing to help me, but I don't want to keep using his gift and make him angry at me."

I am afraid of the Great Red. I don't think he will be angry at the gift he gave me, but his personality is known as Biker Delinquent. That is not the kind of behavior that is reasonable. The show and the book also did not expand on his behavior, as the author killed Great Red against the Machine Gods from another world.

That is another thing I need to worry about.

I shake my head and say.

"I hope you understand, Lady Amaterasu. I don't mind taking you to the Fairy Tail World, but I don't know if Great Red will be offended when I use his gift daily."

Amaterasu calms down a little and says,

"If it is another being other than Great Red, I will call you a paranoid person. However, this is the strongest being in our world, and you did not want to make him angry at you."

I blink for a second when she admits that Great Red is the strongest being in this world.

"What? Why are you looking at me in surprise?"

"Ah, I am sorry for that, Lady Amaterasu. I thought that Gods would not admit they are weaker than other beings."

"Hah! I am not stupid. Even my brother, who looks like a stupid person," "Hey!" "know that the Great Red is the strongest being in this world. Only a few Gods dare to think they are stronger than Great Red."

I can think of a few.

"I see. Anyway, thank you for understanding, Lady Amaterasu."

"Think nothing of it. It is a shame that I cannot visit a new place, but I understand the reason why you did not want to do it. However, I demand you to dance with me to compensate for this!"

Am I in the wrong here to the point I need to compensate her? Urgh. Let's not make her angry at me and agree with her demand.

"Sure!"

"Great! Ah, Yasaka! I hear you will go to the underworld, right? Attending the Devil Youth Gathering."

Yasaka nods her head and says.

"Yes, my lady."

"Great! I will come with you and attend the gathering as well."

From the look of Yasaka's face, she didn't want Amaterasu to come with us.

"Great idea, sis! Let's invite the others as well. It's been a while since Shinto Faction got out of Takamagahara."

"Of course."

Amaterasu looks at Yasaka and me and says,

"We will start the dance tomorrow morning. Yasaka, prepare your dancing attire and make sure to prepare rooms for the other Gods for the gathering. We will stay here until we depart to the underworld."

"Of course, my lady."

"Great!"

And just like that, they are gone, leaving Yasaka and me in the room.

"This is a disaster waiting to happen, isn't it?"
