It seemed she was afraid of infuriating Narukami for taking a gift that was supposed to be his father. Hence the quick change of mind.
"Hold my hand," she said as she reached out her hand.
A bit hesitant, he grabbed her tiny palm and it was abnormally cold like a corpse.
In an instant, his body became light as his legs lost their footing. Without having the time to realize what was going on, his scenery changed to his house.
They arrived in a big room with luxurious furniture. The floor was shining as it let out a sparkle, there was not a single speck of dust that could be seen.
Flowery fragrance welcomed him and he found it pleasing. It calmed his mind to a great extent.
"Great ancestor, this is?"
But it wasn't an answer he heard. Instead, she ordered, "follow me."
He nodded as he followed right behind her.
Walking out of the room, the both of them then walked at the same pace on the corridor.
"That dumb child of yours has already learned the truth, it would be a matter of time before his loved ones being targeted."
He wore a perplexed expression and asked, "is it the truth about *that*?
"Yeah, out of all the things he shouldn't know. That's the thing he found out the truth. What's with my descendants that always cause trouble?"
"Will he be okay, great ancestor? Wouldn't all the higher-ups of All Beyond chase him like dogs?" His voice filled with concern.
"It's okay, they haven't figured it out. Regardless of the fact they will learn it later rather than sooner, it's better safe than sorry. Temporarily, you and your family should hide here."
He halted his steps in shock as he said in disbelief, "They alive?"

Narukami put five ad posters regarding Fallen Nightless base on the front door of five major organizations' branches.
He picked the nearest branch of course. If he chose to put it up on the HQ's front door.
It was certain he would get caught without a chance to escape.
He used the same trick to attract their attention, which was luring Anomalies and the reaction was the same with All Beyond.
The front door became as silent as an abandoned building and after destroying the security cameras, he did his deed.
Anyway, these ad posters weren't particularly telling them the Fallen Nightless HQ's precise coordination. Instead, it told them his location.
Obviously, to prevent them from figuring out the person putting up the posters was him. He left a shadow on his city and it currently helped other Sorcerers kill Anomalies.
He didn't forget to summon two creatures for external help for them. The remaining four were summoned to help other branches.
One for one each.
His spiritual energy was as vast as the sea, he wasn't afraid of draining it dry.
By the way, there was one thing that had to be added. On the bottom of the ad posters, some numbers kept changing. This was his coordination.
He didn't know where Fallen Nightless HQ was in the first place so he chose to do this. Once he found their HQ, it was basically telling them, the five organizations, where it resides.
Whether they believe it or not, it is up to them, Narukami thought to himself as he teleported to the nearest mountain.
He surveyed his surroundings first with a spiritual sense and learned there was no one here.
He crouched as he put his hand on the ground.
"Now where are you, you little brats?" he said calmly as he closed his eyes.
Shortly thereafter, he poured his spiritual sense into the earth and quickly spread it to the entire planet.
Many scenes flashed through his mind. People from different cities and countries walking on the street, landmarks all over the world flashed by, some children crying, couples broke out into a fight, some sleeping peacefully, wars in the middle east.
Life on earth entered his mind and he filtered it skillfully. He would disregard the scenes he found useless and kept it if it was the other way around.
Then, he found a familiar face cautiously crawling on the ceiling of a building. Once in a while peeked at what was going on beneath him through the small gaps.
"Found you," he smiled as he opened his eyes.
.

"Where did they hide her?" Ryu asked himself with a frown.
The girl he was looking for was Asahi's childhood friend. In the beginning, he and Asahi didn't want to act rashly and infiltrate their HQ but it was dire as his childhood friend was about to be sold in human trafficking.
It was unknown how his little sister was kidnapped and why but Asahi attributed this to the lost memory.
"Crap, if Shinra found out about this. He's going to be mad," he said in distress.
Ever since they act on their own that night. Ryu had always been restless, for the fact he was afraid of Narukami's fury.
"You're calling?" A voice suddenly entered his ears and Ryu's body stiffened when he realized the sound was familiar.
Slowly and nervously turning his line of sight to the source. He saw Narukami nonchalantly looking at him.
But that nonchalant expression appeared to be more terrifying than a savage expression!
"Narukami! How did you find me?" Ryu was still surprised despite knowing it was indeed him.
"Your voice is too loud!" Narukami hastily covered his mouth.
"Hmm! Hmm!" Ryu tried to talk but only humming noises escaped from his throat.
Beneath Ryu were four Sorcerers at Level 7.
As his yell could be heard by them. They immediately moved to investigate it but Narukami attacked them with small, lightning needles. The latter went through the small gaps and upon contact.
Their bodies went paralyzed before collapsing to the ground in sync.
Shortly thereafter, Narukami spread out his shadow to them and swallowed them whole like a blob shadow monster. The scene went back to its original state as though nothing had happened.
Uncovering his mouth, Narukami rubbed his white palm against Ryu's clothes.
"Speak, what's going on yesterday when you chase Asahi? How did you end up finding one of the higher-ups of Fallen Nightless?" Narukami asked one after another. Ryu was prepared for this and he answered.
This was his explanation:
When Ryu chased Asahi who was in some kind of monster, humanoid form. Someone suddenly blocked their way and fought them.
The person was shockingly powerful and they were defeated without having the chance to fight back.
That must be Xain Fuhrer, Narukami pondered in himself and continued to listen attentively.
Asahi was gravely injured and Ryu depleted most of his spiritual energy.
Leaving with no choice, they retreated to Ryu's house. Thankfully, with an item that allowed them to escape without leaving a trace, it helped them to relax for a few hours.
In these few hours did Ryu send a message to Narukami.
When Asahi came to his senses, his strange form had already disappeared at this point. Ryu asked a few things about it but Asahi himself didn't know what had happened.
He heard a voice coming out of the Crystal Veins as the former asked for help and he lent his assistance. After that, his memories were foggy and quite hard to remember.
Not long after he woke up, the person who chased after them found their location, and once again they were in a fierce fight.
Compared to the last one, Ryu was prepared and already knew the opponent's strength, its attacks, and weakness.
Within two hours, he defeated it.
"How is it that easy?" Narukami interrupted his story with a doubt.
"It's true, Shinra! I defeat him, wait no. We defeated him. In truth, I almost got myself killed but Asahi turned into his monster form and fought on the same level as that person.
"I immediately joined in and hence our victory," he smiled as he felt a profound proudness in his heart.
"Does that mean Asahi could control himself in his monster form? Not going berserk?" Narukami guessed.
Shortly pondered, Ryu nodded, "un, that's the case. Though after that fight, he fell unconscious."
"Did your enemy die?" Narukami asked.
"Nope, he is still alive but was heavily injured," he replied without hesitation.
After a short pause, Narukami calmly said, "Continue."
"Alright," he said with a nod.
After defeating that person, they didn't immediately spirit channel him but instead bring him with them to a desolate location.
Until Asahi woke up once more, Ryu didn't dare to spirit channel his opponent and focus on recuperating.
Narukami asked why and Ryu answered that it was Asahi's request before he closed his eyes.
He said that he knew a way to spirit channeling him without vaporizing their soul.
"I don't know what that means but I do feel like it's a good thing so I follow his words."
"Some people's souls would dissipate faster when someone tried to spirit channel them and your opponent, Xain Fuhrer, would do the same."
Narukami explained to Ryu what he needed to know and he nodded.
After a short pause, he said "Then, doesn't that mean Asahi is amazing?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
