Arc 2 - Chapter 10

20 minutes later*

(Abandoned Ship)

Once Hime sent Keziah off to do the task she assigned to him.

"Alright, Daisuke. You'll protect the mermaid while Hiro and Riza come with me to set things up. Just make sure to run away for a while until we call for you. We'll finish off the ghosts in one go." Hime said to her mate, then made a hand gesture to the other two to follow her.

"Got it." I replied, then pick up the little mermaid, who didn't so much as protest against this whole plan with her acting as bait.

I begin to move into the hallways and wonder if the ghosts would even show up. Yet, I have not seen any ghosts near me with the help of [Chariot Requiem]. But, I do see lots of ghosts on this abandoned ship.


5 minutes later*

"Holy shit! It's a lot bigger than in person!" I start running while having [Chariot Requiem] continue to stab multiple holes into the Lord of the Ghosts. A giant flying shark with a few deceased faces placed on some part of its body and some ghosts floating next to it without fusing with the body of the giant shark.

I didn't dare use [Chariot Requiem]'s [Grand Scale Soul Manipulation] since who knows if I even have enough [Mana] to affect the Lord of the Ghosts. Furthermore, I still haven't figured a way to increase my [Mana Reserve] yet, causing me to rely on [Magical Pills] during the entire time with both [Requirem Stands] out for longer than usual.

The mermaid I'm carrying in my arms giving off a soundless frighten cry. Not that I could blame her with a fucking giant flying ghost shark currently trying to bite me to death if I didn't have [Chariot Requiem] punch the thing in the face to give me some space. Barely though. I would have lost some flesh.

Since raw strength isn't [Chariot Requiem]'s good points. Maybe I should have [Gold Experience Requiem] with me instead since it's enough to kill the Lord of the Ghosts. But, thought otherwise, since [Chariot Requiem] may not be strong enough to protect the speed boat by itself.

I try using [Domain Control] to form a compress wind barrier behind me, to see if it can stop the Lord of the Ghosts for a few seconds. My hope disappears before it appears in seconds as the giant flying ghost shark gone through the compress wind barrier with ease, not even pausing for a brief moment.

I curse myself for not putting on the [Magical Gloves] on beforehand. Even with one free hand should be enough to deal with the giant flying ghost shark. Now, I just have to do the next best thing.

Placing the mermaid over to my left shoulder like a sack of potato, to free my right hand, then [Book of the End] appear in its katana form. Grabbing the katana with my right hand and swing it at the Lord of the Ghosts, which move out of the way. Much to my surprise and quickly I remember, that in the chapter. The Lord of the Ghosts was literally killed by a physical method.

Yet, so far, [Chariot Requiem] has already inflicted hundreds and hundreds of holes into the Lord of the Ghosts, but it hasn't fallen compared to how easily Hime did it in the manga. So, I recall back [Chariot Requiem] since it looks like he won't be able to do much for the time being. But, at the very least, the giant flying ghost shark sense how dangerous the [Book of the End] is with the way it's avoiding being touched by the blade.

Nonetheless, my job is to lead the Lord of the Ghosts, not defeat it. So, as long as I make it so the thing doesn't take a bite out of me. I continue to lead it to where Hime wanted me to go after wasting 10 minutes for everyone to finish setting up the trap.

BOOM!*

"Fuck!" I curse as it looks like Keziah finally found the boiling room or something, to cause explosions to sink this abandoned ship.

"Daisuke! Over here!" Hiro shouts to me, as I saw him up ahead, holding the door open for me to run into.

The moment I enter the room, where I see Riza shoving a piano right behind me. Slamming straight into the Lord of the Ghosts and crashing into the wall right next to the door. Where everyone can see blood spurt everywhere.

"Did we get it?!" Riza shouts with worry.

"I don't know..." Hiro said while panting from having to run fast as possible to move out of the way or risk being crash together with the Lord of the Ghosts via a piano ramp into the two if Hiro was just a few seconds later from running away.

"Nope." I answer Riza's question as the Lord of the Ghosts broke through the piano, with blood dripping out of its mouth and left eye.

"It's still alright!" Hiro shouts in a panic.

"What a troublesome fellow!" Riza scowl at the incoming giant flying ghost shark.

"Leave it to me!" Hime shouted from above, where she standing on top of a chandelier. Then, she stomps on it, causing the chain that's holding it up to break off. Bringing the chandelier and Hime herself down, crashing straight onto the Lord of the Ghosts' back.

The giant flying ghost shark begins releasing all the souls that merged into it, causing it to shrink until it no longer visible.

My right eye twitches when I just realize, that maybe I was overestimating the Lord of the Ghosts and [Chariot Requiem] could have easily released those souls out of it. But, at least I don't have to deal with it anymore.

"What's all this?" Riza asks Hime, seeing how she mostly the one with all the answers.

"Whoa." Hiro looks at all the souls flying around in awe.

I put the mermaid down, where she looks at all the souls.

"The souls that were trapped, have been released." Hime answered as she has her both hands on her hips, watching the souls together with the others. "Hm?" Hime notices the mermaid looking at one of the souls with teary eyes. Hime places her hands on the mermaid's shoulders. "According to mermaid legends. In order to be with their lover, mermaids make a deal in order to become human. Perhaps with that flute of yours, you were trying to console your lover's feelings." Hime could guess another reason why the mermaid has been playing her flute other than causing for help.

"Hey!" Keziah came from a different door that I used, "Now's not the time to be talking! This ship is already sinking!"

"Don't worry, after all, there the boat Daisuke made, remember?" Hime smirk at Keziah.

"Oh, right." Keziah grabs his head, feeling stupid for forgetting that they already have a boat ready to be used to escape from this sinking ship. "We just need to go above and we're safe."

"Anyway, how about you confess already. The reason you're on this ship is to capture the mermaid, isn't it?" Hime smile at Keziah, who looks at Hime in shock. "Who are you working for, hm?"

"That's..." Keziah didn't know what to say.

"Watch out!" The mermaid shouted, causing Keziah to look up and move out of the way quickly before getting crushed under a broken off pillar.

"She just spoke!" Riza yelled in shock.

"If a cursed mermaid were to speak, she'll die." Hime looks at the mermaid in disbelief, that she would actually speak up just to warn someone.

"[Chariot Requiem]." I summon the [Requiem Stand] and have it grab the mermaid's corpse, then use [Grand Scale Soul Manipulation] to grab the soul of the mermaid to be forcibly put back into her body. Bringing the mermaid back to life, something that almost impossible to do with the [Requiem Stand] if I didn't do it right away. "Okay, let's get out of here!" I use [Domain Control] to grab Hime, Riza, and Hiro, then lift them up and charge right out to the open. Not waiting for others to start shouting how the mermaid came back to life or even realize she is back to life.

I already have [Gold Experience Requiem] bring the speed boat I made, over to us and what awaits us is another Royal member, Hime's older brother. With the same appearance of blonde hair and red eyes with slits for pupils. Wearing a decorative shirt, formal black pants, and black dress shoes.

"Brother..." Hime looks at her older brother as her mate lands them on the speed boat he made while her brother being carried by his android, Flanders, A gigantic and not human-like.

"Daisuke! Release me! He must be the one!" Riza roar with rage, but was held back by me via [Domain Control: Motor-Skill Manipulation].

"Riza, calm down. He isn't the one." Hime said calmly, causing Riza to stop struggling, but she still pissed off.

Keziah took this chance to jump off from the ship and land right next to his master, Hime's older brother.

"You won't mind handing the mermaid over to me, right Lillianne?" Emile asks his little sister in a calm, but everyone can hear the warning in his tone of voice if his request is denied.

"Even if you are my brother, I still wish you wouldn't call me by that name. Brother." Hime let out a sigh. "And I see. You're here for the mermaid." Hime replied, "That's fine. But, I'll tell you one thing." Hime pause as she looks directly into her older brother's eyes. "I'm not interested in becoming the ruler. However, I have no intention of dying. I might be forced to turn my sword upon you in order to live." Honestly, Hime rather not face her older brother. Someone she has a good relationship with.

"You haven't changed." Emile looks at his little sister, then looks at her group and finds it somewhat disappointing until he laid his eyes on the one that seems to possess similar to his ability: [Telekinesis]. And if he is someone on Hime's side, then he is a foe, that Emile must take caution with.

"Hey, Hime. You do know your brother is sick, right? As he is currently dying and his illness is literally going to kill him within a year." I said to Hime, breaking the tensed moment between her and her brother.

Before I could react. I was blasted off my feet from an unknown by a familiar force, sending me flying off the speed boat. Luckily, I have [Gold Experience Requiem] out, allowing me to levitate in midair without the help of [Domain Control]. Nonetheless, being attacked out of nowhere piss me off a bit and I knew who the culprit is.

So, I command [Chariot Requiem] to attack Emile from behind, but an invisible barrier block [Chariot Requiem]'s rapier from touching him.

"Interesting." Emile glance at his back, then releases a [Telekinesis Blast] behind him, pushing whatever tried to attack him away.

"Man, this is almost Chris all over again, but for a different reason." I groan quietly to myself.

"Brother. Enough." Hime looks at Emile, searching for any signs of him being ill since she knows her mate wouldn't say something random out of the blue without a reason why.

Emile quietly looks at his little sister before looking at the person, that discovered his chronic illness somehow. "Tell me. For the one chosen by Lillianne as her lover and partner for life." Emile ignored the shocked look on the others' faces. "What gave me away?"

"Easy. Because I sense your lifespan withering away as we speak right now." I said to Emila. After all, this is true thanks to [Gold Experience Requiem]'s [Life Sensor]. But, that wasn't the important thing to pay attention to. I wanna know, how in the world, does Hime's older brother find out about the relationship between Hime and me. Seriously, this is close to the same event with Chris and Darkness. With the former knowing something that others shouldn't be able to know unless Chris is a [Arch-Wizard], I highly doubt she is one. Yet, she still knows somehow and here Emila, Hime's older brother, finding out something that's important for others to know unless we left some evidence behind. Evidence that Emile shouldn't even be looking for in the first place.

"Lover?" Hiro asks in disbelief and a hint of heartbroken upon finding this out.

"Wait, what?" Riza looks at me, then at Hime with a dumbfounded look on her face.

"And I have a way to cure your illness too." I said to Emile, causing him to narrow his eyes at me. "Before you say I'm lying. Remember, I did reveal how your ill in the first place. That means I have a way to cure it." By that, I mean I'll rely on my [Omnifabrication] to create the cure.

"What will you get out of all this?" Emile is no fool as there must be a reason for telling him this, even if he did overreact a bit just a few seconds ago.

"I'll let you know after I have my revenge." I have [Chariot Requiem] far enough to not be detected by Emile and have the [Requiem Stand] shoot at Emile with the [Sniper Trigger: Lightning]. Too fast for Emile to react. As everyone watches Hime's older brother having his left shoulder shot through by an unknown fast projectile.

"Daisuke!" Hime shouts at her mate, for hurting her older brother, even if he was about to attack her. However, if anyone planning to kill one of her siblings for her survival, then it shall be another either herself or other siblings. Not by someone outside the Royal Family, even if it is someone she picked as her mate.

"Hey, can you blame me?" I land back on the speed boat, but didn't dismiss either [Requiem Stands]. I may need them to face against Emile and lucky for me. We're out in the open sea and I can use my other [Magical Items] that cause massive destruction. "After all, your brother did attack me out of nowhere for no reason at all."

"Because you irritate me for obvious reason." Emile kindly answer, causing Hime to blink and wonder if her ears are working properly or not.

"Mind telling me what that obvious reason is?" I raise an eyebrow, because I don't think I remember Emile acting like this in the manga.

"You didn't ask my permission for being with my little sister." Emile said in a voice, that means business.

I blankly stare at Emile, I really wonder if this one of those changes made due to my presence in this world.

"Brother!" Hime cried out in shock, with her cheeks taking on a pink hue, causing those that familiar with her up to now are shocked with the way Hime is acting.

While Emile just gives Hime a small smile as if he recalling a precious memory before wiping the smile off his face and look directly at the person that dares touch his little sister. If he knew this, Emile would have gladly given up the throne as well and watch over his little sister from allowing anyone dares to come near her. Even if it's the last thing he do with his short life.

"Uh, if I cure you of your disease, will I gain your permission...?" I really did not expect to see Hime's older brother acting like a siscon.

"I rather die than allow you to be with Lillianne." Emile replied without any hesitation. "In fact, forget the mermaid. Keziah. We're going to tag along with Lillianne and her little group back to her home. I won't stand the thought of allowing her to be alone with this guy she picked without having me interview if he worthy enough to be with her."

"Uh..." Keziah looks at his master in a dumbfounded manner, wonder where his cool, cold, and calculate master went off to and wonder who this guy taking his master's place.

"Hurry up." Emile didn't shout nor did he need to, as Keziah quickly did as he commanded.

Soon, Emile is sitting next to Hime, with Keziah next to Riza awkwardly on the speed boat. Even Hiro feels the tension and feels very nervous with Emile among them along with the giant android following right behind them. Just made it nerve-racking for those that don't feel safe with such a big thing steady following right behind them.

If that wasn't enough. No one comment on the way Emile still hasn't treated the wound on his left shoulder. Nor does it look like it hurt that much with the look on Emile's face. If anything, Emile seems more focused on something else than his injury.

As for me, I'm driving the speed boat due to the fact, that no one here knows how to drive the thing since I build it in a way for only I could drive it, with the help of [Gold Experience Requiem]. Otherwise, this speed boat made out of plants would just be for look only.


A few days later*

(Hime's Mansion)

So far, the urge to leave this world has been increasing for a while now. All because of one little mistake on my part, where I trigger a siscon's cold heart to beat again. And because of this, I didn't have any sex for the past few days with the siscon's glaring at me whenever he has free time.

I was even forced to use the [Book of the End] to make it so Sawawa never have sex with me before nor did she lose her virginity since high chance is, that Emile will find out that I'm having a relationship with someone other than Hime.

The worst part? I can't outright kill the bastard like I usually do with people I don't like. Since after a few days of Hime spending time with Emile made their sibling relationship better than ever. To the point, where I wonder if the whole connection between Hime and I was a real thing; however, I have read the book on the whole marriage into the Royal Family.

It is. Yet, what Hime didn't mention was that the connection requires time to fully form instead of it fully completely already and require times to stabilize. Otherwise, the other party can avoid the connection forming permanently on their side as there were a few cases, where the Royal Family have their partner killed just for being together with the Royalty. In fact, there are some cases of members of the Royal Family who would use this connection as a way to survive the trial to the throne by allowing all damage done to them to pass on to their chosen partner.

In hindsight, maybe it was best if I stayed with Darkness. I could have dealt with Chris one way or another instead of escaping from the world to another. At least, it's much easier to deal with Darkness since I'm sure she doesn't have an annoying overprotected sibling, that I know of.

"Hey, as someone chosen by my little sister. Shouldn't you go do something worth doing, like helping my little sister gain more [Blood Warrior]? Instead of just lazing around like a leech?" Emile glare at me, as he continues to bad mouth me for a while now.

At this point, I think I would kill the guy and blame it on something else. Wouldn't be that hard thanks to having the [Book of the End]. Plus, I'm not even in love with Hime nor with Darkness. Now, that I think about it. Why am I dealing with this? Back at home, I would have done many things to remove the annoyances. Plus, I didn't really mind being with Darkness since I like her personality the most out of her. Much easier to deal with in my opinion.

"You're right. I should help Hime." I stand up, causing Emile to have a small grin before he lost it when he found himself stabbed through the heart by the very same person being together with his dear little sister. "I'll make sure to repay back Hime for all she has done for me by making sure you protect with everything you got. As for the cure for your illness. Don't worry about it." I remove the [Book of the End] from Emile as I manipulate his history to the point, where he will always make sure to protect Hime and have her interests in mind. Looking at this, I didn't have to worry about Hime following after me as long she hasn't completely matured just yet.

Shaking my head, that it has been close to two months in this world, but at least I got to stay here longer than before back in that fantasy world.

I begin to search for Hime since she the only one I haven't used the [Book of the End] on. The rest I have already done in the last few days just in case someone notices something I don't want them to know. Even Ciel wasn't spared. Plus, no one could technically say I haven't done anything good for the people here.


A week later*

(Unknown)

It took some time, but I manage to get all I could get from this world in a short time period before more people start heading over to Hime's mansion. But, at the very least, I could say I have a great time being in this world if it wasn't for Emile. I even had one last sex with both Sawawa and Hime before leaving, which I made sure they don't remember and made sure they regain back their virginity. Removing any pieces of evidence if anything tries to check either of them.

I even debate on killing Emile or not, but decide it is a better punishment for him by having become a [Blood Warrior] for Hime instead of him becoming one under Hime's older sister. Something that causes Hime problem in the future. As her former lover, this is another thing I could do for her. Therefore, no one should call me cold-hearted of abandoning Hime just because of her annoying brother. I was bound to leave this world sooner or later.

"Now, let's hope this jump brings me back to the previous world now that I improved during my stay here. I know for sure, Chris won't be able to guard against the [Book of the End] and will be her ends. If not, I got a few other ideas about what to make that should." I thought to myself, with the goal of murdering Chris as a way to take on my frustration I had to deal with Emila for days. Also, it's a given I will either kill Chris or do something else to her, for forcing me to leave the world due to almost everyone in that town was against me and even was about to attack me now that I recall that event.
