Chapter 2401: A Talk Between Ancient Humans . Eduard and Michaella never moved out of their machines, and even more, they didn't even need to eat or go to the bathroom at all. This made me realize their machines probably came equipped with some sort of nutritional supplement and that they could go to the bathroom inside of it, somehow. But nonetheless, they were really getting comfortable with my friends, I wasn't jealous or something, but just surprised they quickly bonded with these people. Although I've heard of their story and what they want to achieve, I'm still a bit doubtful if I should completely trust them. Nonetheless, now that I was done creating a new, powerful Fusion Skill, I guess it was time to socialize for a couple minutes before reaching the castle in the distance. "Looks like while I wasn't here, all of you became really good buddies, huh?" I wondered, giggling. "Ah, Kireina-sama! We were just talking about Eduard's society," said Meiji. "It's very interesting how their kind lives in many planets at the same time! They have large colonies across the galaxy!" "Oh, that's really amazing, yeah," I nodded. "Just how many planets has your empire have conquered?" "There's at least over a hundred..." said Eduard. "But we haven't conquered them, well... in the past we did, but it has been so many years, the politics of the confederation have changed constantly. Many of the colonies have separated themselves from the main branch and became independent countries." "It's more complicated than even that, there's currently two separations between the main confederation," said Michaela. "We belong to the side that has allied some of the other independent countries, but the older, ancient faction still strives to conquer suitable planets aggressively. Just like they're doing with Genesis. Please don't think all of us are like that, there are people that is actively working and fighting to protect your planet." "Well, that's cute," I said. "We don't really need protection though, but we appreciate the help anyways... Though, as strong as you said they are, I'm sure that Genesis can hang in there for a bit longer. She's definitely not weak." Things were certainly more complicated regarding these humans than I imagined, but its not like worrying would change our current situation, so I decided to move on and look at Truhan instead. "Truhan, have you met Surtr? I'll call him over." "L-Lord Surtr?" wondered Truhan. He was very excited to see him, especially because he was a valiant fiery warrior like him, and a figure he admired and venerated as he had blessed him on our early days, which was also the reason he was able to evolve into a Flame Titan like he is now. Indeed, if my memory doesn't betray me, it should have been Surtr, I think. So it's worth calling him over so they can finally meet. He kind of ignored Truhan. For being such a legendary titan god, he's a really absent-minded person. "Yes. Ah! There he is!" I said. "Surtr! Come over here!" "Huh?" Surtr was carrying a huge plate with food he had gone to fetch from the kitchen. At the same time, he was being accompanied by Flora, so it was convenient they were together. Flora, after all, is an Ancient Human like Eduard and Michaela, I'm sure she'll get happy to know their true identities. "Come over here already! Why are you just looking at me?" I facepalmed. "Don't you remember blessing this kid? Truhan? You definitely blessed him! He's your champion, man!" "Champion?" Surtr walked towards Truhan, glancing at him with surprise. "Wait, it's true! You're that one... that one kid! I did bless you on a whim, mostly when I felt your powerful presence. I never really gave it much thought though." "S-So you truly blessed me then, lord Surtr!" Truhan was moved. "I'm very honored to see you! Thank you for having sponsored me back then! With your Blessing, I was able to break my limits and evolve even further, being able to protect my beloved family and clan!" "Hahaha! Is that so?" laughed Surtr. "You look pretty damn strong too! Hmm? Oh, is that... Wait, are you the woman blessed by Selene?" "Selene?" wondered Celica. "Ah yes! She is the Titaness of the Moon; indeed, she blessed me! So you know her, sir Surtr?" "I have seen her only a couple of times in my life..." said Surtr. "But I believe she's alive, somewhere. Probably on her own Realm right now... Hmm, she doesn't get along too well with us anyways. She's part of the other Titans, the Children of Uranus and Gaia." "Gaia..." I said. "Right, Gaia and the other Titans we rescued are living inside of the Cosmic Realm. Perhaps I could ask them later." "Wait, Gaia is with you?!" asked Surtr. "She is?!" wondered Poseidon, who was nearby. "Huh? Yeah," I nodded. "Some time ago, we managed to secure her soul fragments, so I revived her. Alongside Helios, Hyperion, and Ocea... Oceanus." "Oceanus?!" Poseidon asked. "Wait, so you have one of his Soul Fragments?! But wasn't he within the seas of Atlantis?" "Ah, I kind of forgot, they don't like fighting that much after all," I said. "They must be with Hydros and Geie. After I revived them, they simply became members of my pantheon, but you know? Aside from my family, there's like thousands of Gods in my pantheon! It's hard to sort them all! Even less to bring them to battle. My memory is really good, but I sometimes have to prioritize my family over others." "C-Can we meet him? So he's only a soul fragment? Was he never informed of what happened before?" Poseidon asked. "Is he as vengeful as the other?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺 "Not really, he was always calm and wise," I said. "I haven't seen him... in ages. Even when I came back, I never went to talk with them, damn. I'm really an irresponsible Pantheon Leader, huh?" "Well... It's fine I guess," Poseidon sighed. "These Titans... they went through a lot, and even died in the Ragnar?k. Perhaps they deserve to live peaceful lives, away from conflict to drag them into a war after they already died in one, it would be disrespectful and cruel." "Hmm, you're not wrong," I nodded. "But are you sure you don't want to have a talk with him?" "Well..." Poseidon hesitated, however, Sapphirine by his side smiled, patting his shoulders. "Poseidon..." she whispered to him. "You should do what is right." "...Yeah," he nodded. "I want to see him... Could you bring me to him?" "Nah I'll bring him over!" I said. "Also, Flora, come here too!" "Hm?" Flora walked to my side, wondering what I wanted. She was talking with Surtr about something earlier, I wonder what. "Did you know that Eduard and Michaela over there are ancient humans?" I asked her. "Ancient humans?" Flora wondered. "What are you talking about- Wait, those machines aren't your golems?" "I guess you weren't watching because you didn't participate in the battle," I sighed. "But they're ancient humans, descendants of the humans that escaped Genesis... or should I say Earth? You were one of them, weren't you? A Scientist that ended staying in Earth as it underwent large mutations from all the Divine Energy that Genesis poured into the world when she landed and dug into the Core." "W-Wait, what?!" Flora gasped, finally realizing what I said. "How... What's going on?! They're alive?!" Hahaha, seeing the stoic Flora making this expression is truly a rare sight! Author's Note: I had forgotten to mention this before! But we've already reached 2400 chapters, congrats! Although this story will never be as popular as it once was before, I still love writing it and I'll continue until the end. There's exciting developmetns and a new insane arc coming up in a couple of chapters more, so look forward to that! For those that liked My World Traveling System, Frank is also finally coming back and will take a much more central part in this new arc.
