Yuki didn't let any of them enter just yet, she wanted to go there by herself first and told them that once the Portal was opened back up, then they could finally enter. Her reasoning for this is that she doesn't want Somi to be surprised by the sudden visit of so many people that she doesn't know, if that were to happen, then she would definitely receive the greatest shock of her life.
"Somi…" Once she uttered those words, Mio thought that she was hearing things as she had just seen her Master leave more than an hour ago, but now she was back. Realizing this, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine as she thought that she was here to punish her for letting Somi cry like that, and when Yuki saw this. She sighed and smacked her on the head in response.
"Idiot, why would I punish you for my own family's mistakes? I'm just here to clarify some misunderstandings between us. Also… I have to thank you for this, never once Somi tried to open up to us like she did with you, so I guess you do have some magic in taking care of people." Yuki chuckled as she then gently took Somi in her arms before cleaning up her messy face with all of the tears and messed up hair that she had.
"Mother? Why are you here, didn't you say that you aren't going to meet me until the three years are done?" Somi asked clearly shocked that her Mother was back, but when she was carried again by her, she felt as if all the anxiety that she was feeling slowly began to disappear.
"Well, like what I said. I'm here to correct some misunderstandings. It's not me really though, it's these people-" Just as Yuki was about to open the portal back up to let the others in, she heard a gasp behind her, and when she turned around she saw Mio's three friends standing there.
All of them just came at the right moment and they had heard the conversation between the two, to say that they were shocked to hear the word "Mother" coming out of Somi's mouth was simply an understatement, because it means that the person standing in front of them is their one and True God. The God that gives them their life, but she can also take it back if she wants to.
"Are these the friends that you were talking about to me earlier?" Yuki asked as she looked at Mio with indifference on her face which made the three somewhat uncomfortable. They were used to being treated like that because Mio was sometimes like that, but the indifference that Yuki was showing them was something they had never experienced before.
It was so different because, from their perspective, it seemed to them that the woman in front of them absolutely didn't care about them no matter who they were. They felt that if it weren't for Mio having a special connection with her, she would absolutely not care about them.
But even with all of that indifference, they still had to admit that Yuki was the most beautiful person that they had ever seen in their life. Especially with those striking features of a Fox that just makes her stand out even more to other people, but even more so with her white hair and red eyes.
"Yes, Master. They are the ones that I mentioned before, I have already informed them about the situation, and they said that they are willing to help me which I'm very grateful for." Mio said as she then nudged Solar to start introducing themselves to her so that she could know them and maybe start something new with her, but before they could even do what Mio wanted, Yuki got ahead of them.
"You don't have to introduce yourself, I just read your guy's name. I was also listening to your guy's conversation and let's just say that it is very interesting. If you guys really want to enter the Immortal Realm, you only need to do one simple thing for me. That is to reach the Spirit Lord within the time that I have given you, which is of course three years." Yuki said with a light smile.
She had listened to every word earlier and when she heard that they also wanted to enter Immortal Realm, she couldn't help but laugh at it because they were simply dreaming about it.
When she created this World, she didn't really care about it, she only gave them the System and left them to fend off for themselves, but as time went by she changed all of that. The highest Ranking before was a God Rank, but because Yuki doesn't see much hope in these people, and if some people really reach that, it would be a headache for her because that person would be the supreme leader of Earth without a doubt.
So she made a restriction, the highest Rank that people could get was Overseer, and normally it wouldn't show because the Ranking was different here. She made it into Tier, 1 being the highest and 10 being the lowest. Though that was also the same with the Ranking in the Immortal Realm, just a bit different.
Rank 1 would be the highest which is equivalent to an Overseer in terms of pure strength, 2-4 is Essence Lord, 5-7 is Essence Warrior, and lastly, 8-10 is Essence Gathering.
Out of everyone on the surface of the Mortal Realm, only Mio had ascended to Spirit Lord, and all of it is because of the rewards that she has gotten from Yuki over time. Plus in her eyes, she was the only one who could really go that far.
"Mio will explain to you everything when you all go back, now just stay quiet for now because something important is about to happen." Yuki didn't care about the confused look on their faces and just told them to be quiet as she opened the portal again and several people came out which made them almost drop to their knees. All of them were feeling an oppressing aura from all of them. But even Somi couldn't escape it and she was suffering more because of her body.
But with just one glare the aura dissipated, even though such a thing was a normal thing, Yuki didn't let it slide because it could be controlled, but none of those people just tried to.
"My Baby… I have missed you so much." Without caring about Yuki's words since it was directed at her anyway, she rushed over to the side of Somi and embraced her daughter to ease the pain in her heart after being separated for such a long time which in reality was just a few hours.
There was a reason for that, Yuki made the time in the Mortal Realm and Immortal Realm to be in sync now so that there wouldn't be too much change when it's finally time for Somi to come home.
"Mommy?"
"Yes… yes, it's me." Kurokami just enjoyed the company of Somi and the same thing for the little girl as she also missed her Mommy the most.
"Your Mother and I brought some people for you to meet, it's your first time meeting them, but I'm sure you're not that unfamiliar with them." Kurokami smiled after a while as she wiped the tears from her face and let Somi stand up on her own.
"Who are they?"
"It's your sisters, the ones that wrote the letter that you were talking about earlier." Without thinking too much about it, Yuki went ahead and gave her daughter the answer that she wanted which earned a glare from Kurokami.
