Chapter 170 The Barbarian Heart Sects Arrive
According to the staff of the space ship it would take a couple of hours to reach the place where Mylene's body was hiding, so for the time being they were free to rest however they wanted.
Kana smiled, she stood up from the couch and then went all the way until she was in front of Aster, Aster saw Kana's hopeful expression and he laughed.
"Earlier we had to deal with some troubles, you can sit with me now".
Kana had a bright smile on her face as she sat on Aster's lap.
"Big brother… once everything is settled, will we be going to meet your family?".
Aster patted Kana's head.
"Those who I consider my family are all here… one way or another, after we finish our business in Prasil, we will pay a visit to the sect of my friend, you know the tall weird looking guy that was staying in the mansion of Hawthorn's city lord".
Kana let herself be spoiled by Aster, she laughed imagining a whole sect filled with people like Eric.
While Kana was taking things quite easy, Lilia on the other hand knew that her son was still deciding whether they would return to the Drage family or not, she of course wanted him to claim what was his by right of birth, but if he didn't want to, she didn't mind to cut off any ties with the Drage.
Lilia never considered Heavenly conquerors the peak of the existence, the people of the Karel family were stronger than the natives of the Dragon Legacy Heavenly Quadrant, and according to the stories they just appeared out of nowhere, so since that moment those with especially high statuses were aware of the existence of a higher plane of existence.
All because the Karels kept divagating about being descendants of gods and other nonsense when they were defeated and exterminated, and of course everyone wanted to discover those new territories.
For the Drage Lilia was their ticket to all that, she reached the heavenly transformation realm at an incredibly young age, and her lineage was the purest in the whole family, that's why she was pressured to have descendants all in order to make the family stronger.
And all of that was confirmed when her son told her about Hyperion, the stars and lastly about Rya, not even a Heavenly conqueror could do such an incredible place like the mind space, nor concede powers out of nothing like the stars did, if you add the fact that they met Eris and Mylene in this planet, Lilia already understood her son won't be limited to this plane of existence.
"Mm?", Aster felt his mother's worries and he wrapped his arm around her waist, and made dragged her closer to him.
"Mom I already decided we will go to teach those guys a lesson, but they will have to wait until I feel like paying them a visit".
Lilia smiled, she closed her eyes and simply enjoyed the warm feeling of being in her son's embrace.
Aster turned to see the other girls, Sarina had a slightly blushed expression while she was having a little conversation with Alice and Aria, surprisingly Eris was actually talking with Mylene, they might be enemies but it's also true that they come from the same place so they had some things to discuss.
Kana on the other hand was happily accepting his pats like some kind of adorable little cat, "This isn't bad at all, me travelling through the space with my girls… maybe in the future when I become the strongest, we will pass the eternity visiting interesting different planets just for fun", he thought.
While Aster was enjoying his time in the space ship, back in Hawthorn city Eric was helping Sofia prepare everything for the upcoming battle, the city lord was still recovering but he insisted on going to war with the king.
Eric felt his communication talisman moving inside his pocket and he thought Aster was trying to contact him, but instead a familiar voice made him smile.
"I swear someday you are going to cause my death brat; in what trouble did you get me into this time?".
"Uncle Ritz, if you can complain then it means you are healthy, and since I'm listening to your voice then you finally arrived to this planet".
Ritz sighed.
"Yes, we just left the dimensional tunnel, your martial uncle Adrian came along to help us, we can catch up later give us some directions to go pick you up".
Eric cleared his throat, he still hasn't told Ritz about Sofia, so they didn't know he will return to the barbarian heart sect with a wife.
"Ahem, uncle Ritz… I need to talk about something with my master later", Eric told Ritz the coordinates of Hawthorn city and the transmission ended.
Sofia smiled.
"My father will go in his own space ship, but I want to go with you to meet the other members of your sect".
Eric sighed.
"It's not the moment for that… are you sure you want to come with me, I don't know if we will be able to return to this galaxy ever again"
In a rare occasion Sofia actually gave Eric a short kiss followed by a punch in the shoulder.
"I already told my father about it, I'm not fitted to become a city lord anyway, your galaxy sounds funnier".
It took Eric a moment to process the kiss, before he met Sofia he wasn't interested in women, his day consisted in training and playing jokes on his uncle Egil.
"Now I understand why brother Aster likes to spend time with sisters… I wonder how can he handle that many at the same time, just one Sofia is enough to give me a lot of troubles", he thought.
Eric was about to contact Aster to tell him about Ritz, but his talisman illuminated again, it's just that this time he didn't recognize who was contacting him, until he heard Brig's anxious voice.
"Big brother I can finally reach you… I hurt my legs when we arrived, luckily, I managed to find a little town to recover, how are you, did you already find Cade?".
Eric laughed out loud.
"That bastard is fine, brother Aster coincidentally met him when he arrived at this planet, where are you, uncle Ritz is here, so we better gather before he comes and beat the crap out of us hahaha".
Brig laughed.
"This exploration has been a pain in the ass, for us, I'm at the north border of Luonto, come for me after elder Ritz has arrived, I need some high-level medicines because I barely survived a really hard impact".
In a strike of bad luck Brig also appeared midair, luckily it wasn't that high and he landed on a big tree which more or less cushioned the fall, but his left leg and arm were completely broken, so he had to stay in a little town where the strongest cultivator was a star formation realm old man.
…
Back in the Luonto's sword, the members of the staff came from the captain's cabin to inform they have arrived at their destination, but what welcomed him was the scene of his young lady happily resting in the lap of the young man that his captain asked them to temporarily transport.
Still, it wasn't his place to say anything so he only limited to inform.
"We already arrived, about one hundred meters at east there is the cave that was described, but there is no place to land so we can only maintain the ship in the air".
Aster stopped patting Kana, which she took as a sign to stand up not without saying.
"Big brother let's bath together later with big sisters ?".
Aster smiled, he had to admit that Kana's innocence was quite adorable.
"Of course, in fact once we finish taking care of those guys from Riga, we will take a day off to go to the beach what do you say?".
Kana jumped a couple of times.
"Yeeeii!!! It's been years since I swam at the beach".
All the girls laughed at Kana's reaction, her positive and happy attitude was a good for the heart, especially after all the tense situations they have dealt with lately.
With Eris and Lilia here, there was no problem that couldn't be solved so the staff opened the lateral door of the ship and they all flew towards the cave where Mylene's body was hidden.
On the way Aster noticed similar runes and formations to the ones that were in the island where Eris hid her body, and just like that time with Mylene here none of the traps activated, they safely landed in front of the cave, which was actually bigger than it looked from the windows of the space ship.
Mylene looked for a specific part of the wall and after doing a couple of gestures with her hands the entrance of the cave opened for them.
"All the formations were deactivated… Eris can confirm it".
Aster turned to see Eris and she nodded at him, with Eris approval they all entered the cave, from the outside it didn't look different than a normal cave, but inside it was basically a palace, luxury decorations everywhere and in the middle of all that there was a little white mausoleum.
Mylene also opened the door and just like Eris, her body was resting as if she was only sleeping in a transparent crystal coffin, Mylene doubted for a moment, she took a deep breath and then said.
"It will take me at least half a day to reintegrate my soul into my body, but then the wounds that Eris caused me will re-open, can you help me recover… master".
The last part of the phrase was actually hard for her to say, but given his current state there was nothing else she could do, it was obvious that Eris was going to recover faster than her so there was no way to free from the necklace that tied her to Aster.
"If I'm going to be… serving this kid, then at the very least he should give me a decent life, if not then I might as well ask them to kill me".
Mylene sighed, "I just wanted to return to my family, why things turned out like this, if it was me who entered his good books instead of Eris, would things have been different?", she thought.
