Chapter 95
"Wait here, I'll be back shortly," KE extended his right hand, pulling a family of seven towards him, which surprised everyone, but they silenced as they heard his voice, simply because the divine hymns purified their souls.
"KE, who are these seven?" Ryota approached KE, feeling a deep familiarity with them, their aura resembling Miyako's.
The crimson-haired boy observed them; though they were tense, the man who seemed to be recovering tried to stand up. "Don't stand; don't overexert yourself."
KE turned to his mother, Miyako, and drew her aside, "Mom, these are our only relatives." Miyako's eyes welled with tears; she had long sought her relatives as they were from an ancient clan. Due to circumstances, they were involved in wars not against demons but because of some corrupt realms, being too powerful.
In the past, battles were fought with swords, no such thing as gunpowder existed. If a whole clan had the talent to slice rocks like mud with swords, it wasn't surprising that many ancient realms conspired to annihilate them.
They were essentially like the Uzumaki clan in a certain Ninja world, exterminated by other countries and hidden villages due to the fear of their sealing techniques.
Tanjuro heard this and felt his heart shiver, never imagining he'd meet his clan members. "Sir, could yo-"
"Please, uncle, don't address me so formally. Come here," KE took his hands, bringing him to their side. KE knew his mother's dream was to meet her clan members, one of whom was part of a demon slayer squad, and now he brought her the last family with their ancestor's blood.
"I apologize for not coming to you sooner," suddenly, Tanjuro and the others remembered the celestial phenomena and swallowed.
"Uhm, so are you and us?" Tanjuro was filled with complexity; on one hand, he was happy to see his clan alive, and on the other, he couldn't feel at ease knowing KE was the Emperor, his mother the Emperor's mother, and they were mere commoners.
KE quickly realized what Tanjuro was thinking but shook his head, saying, "Uncle Tanjuro, you underestimate yourself too much. First, we are family, of the same clan, and that alone makes me want to have you by my side. Secondly, you are already a strong presence."
KE's eyes were piercing, seeing that Tanjuro had reached the {Migrating Mirage Rank Moving Illusions World} realm with his swordsmanship, a feat humanity struggles to achieve.
But what is this? A human without power reached the {Migrating Mirage Rank Moving Illusions World} realm, also while being ill, KE explained to everyone.
They looked at Tanjuro differently, even Ryota felt if he gave him the Etheora technique, he would rapidly reach his level.
Kagaya and the others from the demon slayer squad didn't understand, so Kanae came and respectfully explained.
Then, they realized how terrifying Tanjuro's swordsmanship was, even rivaling Yoriichi's talent, making KE wonder what would happen if he revived his clan.
This plan made his eyes shine, Alaya noticed and wanted to pull his ear but stopped, feeling he wouldn't stop until he achieved his goal, she only sighed, ready to be by his side if he needed help.
Everything turned to darkness and red lightning everywhere, this place made Gaya and Alaya feel like they were back home… wait, home!!!
"My husband, did you bring us to chaos?" Alaya shouted, making KE laugh as he tugged her beautiful cheeks.
While Mana looked at him, awaiting a kiss, of course, he would give her one, making the young girls who had never seen such scenes before blush.
Hinaki, Nichika, Kanata, Kanao, and Nezuko gathered, discussing what KE would do next.
"I don't know what KE will do, but I'm sure he'll do something crazy that will make Alaya-nee and Gaya-nee angry," Kanao laughed at the thought of KE being scolded by everyone.
"Kanao, do you know KE-sama's power?" Tanjiro came and asked; he was a bit scared but looked at the girls talking with ease and without fear, which made him relax a bit.
Kanao, patting the small dragon KE gave her for protection, said, "I don't know, but why are you scared? Be brave like your little sister Nezuko," making Nezuko smile happily.
The girls always bonded quickly, including Hinaki, Nichika, and Kanata.
"By the way, Kanao, what is this little lizard?" Hinaki, the older sister, asked out of curiosity upon seeing such a strange creature.
Kanao held the dragon like her child , even carrying milk bottles for it, "It's my doll, but also my personal guardian that KE placed to protect me from all enemies."
The small dragon cried without tears; it was the great dragon, daughter of the dragon king, ruler of all ancient magical beasts, now reduced to a mere… doll.
Tanjiro looked at the dragon, sensing its sorrow, but didn't pay much attention and went to play with his new friend Kiriya.
The families divided into three groups: the children, the women (mothers, aunts, and KE's wives), and the men analyzing the chaos.
Tanjuro introduced many terms about chaos, making Ryota sure he was a good friend to drink wine with.
Even Kagaya felt this was simply the best day of his life.
KE's people and forces also analyzed the chaos, as KE had ordered them to learn something.
Gaya and Alaya spoke loudly, making the three families look at them curiously, "Husband, how did you do this?"
"Do what?" KE looked as if he didn't understand what he had done.
Alaya hit her forehead, realizing her husband liked to play dumb, "Husband, I'm asking how you created chaos itself, even though this chaos is very primitive and trillions of times weaker than the real chaos."
KE now understood and coughed twice, seeing everyone looking at him, "It was quite simple. I used the Cosmic Law of Creation with some information from you two, and it worked."
Gaya froze, stuttering, "J- Just like that? Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure I did just that," KE shrugged, not understanding why his wives thought it was impossible. He hadn't created real chaos, just a very primitive one, trillions of times weaker than the real chaos, but still very useful as he noticed his people's souls becoming stronger and their understanding much improved.
"It seems the time has come, Mana," KE spoke slowly, reminding his wife.
Mana awaited this moment, "Go on, KE, do the impossible again," giving him a kiss of luck.
The rest were surprised, not knowing what KE would do, but before anyone could ask, Gaya clapped once, and everyone was moved far away as she activated her divine privileges as a goddess of the heavenly world, creating a shield to protect everyone.
True, they didn't just come here with their consciousness; pain and death here felt real, though they wouldn't die completely. Death had countless benefits if not fully embraced, mainly strengthening their will and removing fear.
"I'm really too kind," KE was alone now, smiling, while Gaya and Alaya were filled with complexity.
On one hand, they knew what he was about to do, and on the other, at this moment, it was impossible for them to do anything to stop him.
Alaya sighed, touching Gaya's hand firmly, "If you die, KE, we will kill ourselves after you, so live if you want us to live." His wives were very serious when they said they would take their own lives.
