"Ah, it's finally over." Kai stumbled on the floor as he panted a few times. His consciousness was fuzzy as though he would sleep for a long time the moment his head touched the floor.
"You have learned our language right now. Unfortunately, I can't teach you any language because of the rule."
"By the way, what is this ancient pact that prevents me from learning other languages?"
"Only their own race can teach their scion other languages. If another race is teaching you a language other than their language, there are only three possibilities. First, you will need to give up your identity as the protector and become one of my Oni race. Second, you will be considered as our possession like that of a slave. Or third, our entire race has become your slave.
"Hence, please understand that we can't really allow you to learn any other language besides ours."
Kai let out a long sigh and nodded. "I understand. I am sorry for making you in a difficult position when I asked the question."
"It's fine. You have no knowledge about it after all. However, if you come to us to teach you after learning about it, we can only see it as a declaration of war." Mai smiled while narrowed her eyes.
"Ah, yes. I understand." Kai nodded. "I won't mention it anymore. Now that I think about it, I have a question."
"Sure. Please ask."
"What is the use of other languages?"
"You can govern other races using the language. In this case, you can govern our Oni Race, albeit my father and my words are more important than yours. But it will be different if you go to the magical beasts. You should know that in a certain area, there should be a magical beast acting as a leader, right?"
"Yes."
"Depending on their race, you can force them to obey you and allow them to govern the other races. This will allow you to mobilize so many magical beasts at once. There are Protectors that want to coexist, so it gives them something in exchange for their loyalty. There are some that force them to obey.
"I hope that you are the former. Anyway, there are so many races in this world, so there are many leader-class beasts. In other words, you should learn more languages during this time."
"I have no idea where I can find the ancient human civilization." Theo sighed.
"I can tell you a clue about it. I don't know their exact location, but I believe that they call their language Akkadian." Suddenly, Ishii came into the room and explained.
"Akkadian?" Theo narrowed his eyes and opened his device, trying to find Akkadian Language. "It's a native language to Assyria and Babylon. If it's true, then their current location is around Iran and Iraq. However, I need to cross Turkey first before reaching that place. This is not going to be an easy journey.
"Not only do I need to hide this fact to the people by going alone, but I can't go for a long time unless they will notice my movement and try to question me. I can probably bring Sofia as a guarantee, but I don't know how far she will hide the fact." Kai narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
"You have your own circumstances, I guess. But I don't think you will find it hard to find them as long as you utilize your ears and with that item of yours that carries a powerful Space Magic, I think you have gotten it already." Ishii shrugged while looking at the necklace Rapakha gave.
"Well, I will try it as soon as possible. Still, it's not possible to do it in the next two months." Kai sighed. "Even though I really want to advance as soon as possible."
"You are very greedy, aren't you?" Ishii smirked. "Either way, the moment you know how to develop your body, your lifespan will grow, so no need to worry about it too much."
"I know, but I have a lot to think, so I can't afford to waste a single second. After all, I have my family… If I were to be alone in the future, I…" Kai let out a long sigh, not knowing what to do when everyone became old and weak while he had yet to age.
"You can still see your children. Besides, if you reach that point, this place is open for you. We can play Shogi or whatever to pass the time. If you can't stand it, there is still another way…" Ishii looked away.
Without telling him, Kai already knew that there was always an option to suicide. For a human who had gotten used to living for seventy years normally, living one hundred years would be a blessing. However, if it were two hundred years? Three hundred years? They would surely start going insane.
They watched the passing eras, the death of his children and grandchildren, and even more, the people would consider them a monster.
"By the way, can I teach them something to prolong their lives?"
"Your wives? Yes. However, they won't be able to compare to you. A protector has a normal lifespan of twenty thousand. Some are even higher. However, your wives? I think their talent can only give them like two hundred years or three hundred years at most."
"I see." Kai sighed. "At least, it's good enough. I can't even see my future after living two hundred years, so I will decide when the time comes."
"Indeed. Actually, I have once thought about our role in this world…" Ishii's expression turned serious as he looked at the ceiling, recalling what happened in the past.
Kai furrowed his eyebrows while Mia widened her eyes as though she never heard it from her father.
"Our role?"
"Yes. Don't you think this is weird? From where did the magic particles come? Why was there an altar for each protector? Why could only one person be qualified as a protector? Why would we live a long life? Who set such a rule? I have been asking it for a long time and that theory that you humans called big bang theory…I don't think such a concept is good enough to explain it." Ishii smiled.
"!!!" Kai widened his eyes.
"I feel like there is more to explore in this universe. Maybe I will live long enough to reach the point where we can explore space, exploring all the wonders this universe holds. Maybe at that time, I can give my mantle to Mia, journeying around the universe.
"I wonder what kind of language those people you called aliens have? I want to know it all. Who is the strongest being in this universe? I want to see that person. This is my motivation for living through all this." Ishii smiled. "I am sure that there are so many monsters stronger than us. Hence, I want to fight them to know where my limit is."
"Motivation, huh." Kai let out a long sigh. "Such a grand motivation. I don't know if I will have such a thing. I just wish to live peacefully with my wives."
"That's also a wonderful motivation. Well, how about you live long enough to reach the time for my ambition and explore the universe together with me?"
"Who knows? It will be too long in the future. I might have lost interest in the worldly affair and chose to pass away." Kai shrugged. "But if that time comes and I gain that desire, I hope that you still invite me."
"Hahahaha! Sure. I will invite you of course." Ishii laughed before stretching his hand to the door. Soon, one wine bottle and three cups flew inside the room, hovering in front of Ishii. He poured the wine to all of them, handing them with his telekinesis. "Drink, drink. Let's drink! You too, Mia."
Mia looked mysteriously at his father and sighed. She knew that her father would never be the same after he lost his wife, AKA her mother. It was fortunate and unfortunate at the same time to meet Kai Carter. Either way, she didn't need to worry about it for the time being.
Kai took the cup and drank it. Before long, Mia caught his falling body and shook her head helplessly. "Father. I know that you are happy, but you shouldn't give wine to a sleepy person. He hasn't slept for three days."
"Hahaha, sorry, sorry!" Ishii laughed and looked at Kai's sleeping face. "I feel like he has a lot of potential, but he has no desire to get stronger than necessary. The reason why he can grow this fast like no limit is due to him not understanding the real power of a Protector. Once he gains the same power and status, he won't have this significant improvement anymore.
"Instead, his progress will become slower and slower until everything looks boring to him. To be honest, I pity such a person since I was once the same person like him." He let out a long sigh. "When I lost your mother, she told me to get another wife, not only to keep me company but also to raise you.
"However, when she told me like that, how could I even look at any other woman? They are not the same; no one can replace her. The time feels to come to a halt for me. Hence, I want to have this journey as my last journey and die by the blade. I promise your mother that I will keep taking care of you and not commit suicide, but I have truly had it enough."
Mia put Kai gently on the bed before hugging her father. "Father. You are the best father in the world. Whatever you choose, Mia will support it, but Mia just wishes that you won't disappear so suddenly without telling me. And don't worry, I will take care of all the Onis in this place."
"Ahaha…" Ishii chuckled before a genuine smile appeared on his face. "You are truly like your mother."
"Because Father's raised me well."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
