Chapter 161: And the next world is...

Chapter 161: And the next world is...

(Ryoto's pov)

Explaining to Rio and Kaede about Lala's pregnancy was challenging but necessary. They were part of the family, after all. I also introduced both of the girls as my girlfriends to Mikan and Rito, and Mikan wasn't amused by it.

That night the four of us, Lala, Rio, Kaede, and I were talking in my room the whole time about our time together, what happened to Lala and me, and so on. We had a great time together. New novel chapters are published on

The next few days, nothing unusual happened except for me taking on Rio and Kaede on separate dates.

With Rio, I went on a shopping spree, while with Kaede, I showed her some good cafs with pudding since she enjoyed it so much.

Both of them met my pets as well. Utsu and Private were their favorites. Utsu, however, bonked Rio, and I laughed at it.

(E/D: Utsu over here was written as Ustu. The author's high is on coffee.)

(A/N I'm just dyslexic and I don't drink coffee.)

Today was the first day of our second year of high school and the first year for Kaede and Rio. Everyone was excited, but only I was in a solemn mood because today was also the day I'll begin my mission, and from what I knew, it would be longer than the last time. Possibly many years will pass before I can return.

I didn't say anything to anyone about that, but I think some of them noticed my strange behavior.

Lala: "Ryoto, are you alright?"

Lala looked concerned, and it hurt me seeing her like that, but I steeled my heart and smiled at her while patting her head.

Ryoto: "Of course, everything is fine. You're here with me."

I wasn't asked the same question the second time, so I think I didn't get rusty with hiding my emotions, and I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.

In school, I went through the first lesson, and Yui is in our class now, so I guess she'll be pretty annoyed at me.

During the first break, I went to the roof, and there, I planned to accept the mission.

I don't know where I'll be going just yet. Karen gave me some hints earlier but now will be the first time I'll see what's the mission about.

'Karen, give me the mission.'

*PING*

*NEW QUEST*

Mission: Getting back what you lost

Objective 1: Survive until the last boss is defeated by you or someone else

Note: Reward for this mission depends on the difficulty the user (Ryoto) chooses. There are three difficulties: Easy, Normal, and Hard.

Easy difficulty allows you to complete the mission with all your powers and abilities.

Normal difficulty seals some of your abilities while others you are free to use.

Hard difficulty seal all of your abilities, and the enemies become more powerful.

Reward (Easy): 50 000 SP, 1 gacha ticket, Earth's Dragon balls (1 wish)

Reward (Normal): 100 000 SP, 1 gacha ticket with a powerful ability, 1 ability upgrade (random), Namekian's Dragon balls (3 wishes)

Zangetsu: - No changes.

Moving ears - No changes.

Lollipop Healer - No changes.

Switcheroo - Completely sealed.

...

'Are you sure that you didn't choose Hard difficulty by accident, Karen? Most of my powerful abilities are sealed.'

Karen: "That's how it is. I'm not the one deciding which of your powers are sealed and which are not. Sorry..."

*Sigh*

'I'm not blaming you, Karen, but it seems that we will not hear from each other for a long time. And you don't need to worry. I'll have Zangetsu with me, and he'll help me in a pinch.'

Hopefully.

Karen: "So it would seem..."

Karen seemed to want to say something but was hesitating.

'Karen, we'll hear from each other soon.'

I said softly.

Karen: "Yes, we will unless you'll do something stupid that you usually do."

She said jokingly, and I smiled at that.

'Let's start it then. The longer we wait, the harder it gets to do it.'

At the exact moment I was about to be sent away, I felt a hand on my shoulder, and before I could say anything, I saw only light before my vision returned.

I was in what seemed to be feudal Japan.

Rin: "Ryoto, what happened!?"

Next to me was Rin.

Shit.

(E/D: Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Shit just went from 0 to 100 real fucking quick.)

---

(E/D: Notice, for all the readers, the picture of Zangetsu will not arrive because I was underpaid and I am unhappy.)

(A/N Less talking, more working (_) )

(E/D: Just joking, the picture is in progress but because I got a very important project to work on, the thing will probably not come out for at least 2 weeks or so. Please be patient, your favorite Editor-kun will run on 3 kg of coffee to get that shit ready.)
