Izan stood in the living room, gazing towards the horizon for an entire hour, thinking. Izan finally turned around and there he saw everyone already there, sitting and waiting for him to turn around. He had sensed them coming earlier, but he didn"t react at that time. The first one to speak was Izan while glancing at his wives. "This time, I will travel by myself. And by the time I am back, I want all of you to become so strong that no one in this Fake Universe can match up to their strengths and powers." It had taken Izan a lot of thought and time to think this through, he didn"t want to leave his wives by themselves, but he didn"t have anything to worry about either.
"Husband, don"t you want anyone to be by your side? How about Defying or Jiutian?" Hanc.o.c.k asked back swiftly, she worried about Izan and not herself even whilst knowing that Izan was much stronger than herself and any of her sisters.
And without a second thought to think about it, Izan shook his head whilst replying. "No, that won"t do. The only reason I can trust all of you is because of Defying, Jiutian and Calypso will be by your sides. I can take care of myself, none of you has to worry about me, but about if you are able to grow stronger in the short time I will be away." A small gentle smile appeared on Izan"s face.
Nojiko wanted to say something, but she held herself back for now. She knew that Izan was right, instead of worrying about Izan"s safety, they should worry about themselves not disappointing Izan. "Izan is right, he can take care of himself. For now, we will need to focus on how to improve our Nen and grow stronger, fast. We don"t have time to rest."
"Nojiko"s right about this." Robin nodded and agreed with Nojiko. And when Robin saw that Shirahoshi was starting to get nervous, she continued speaking. "None of us wants to be an anchor pulling back Izan, right?" And the moment she said that Robin could see that Shirahoshi wasn"t as nervous any longer but was trying to seem brave.
Hisoka"s eyes squinted slightly, but he didn"t say anything. Yet his eyes spoke a million words whilst he was glaring towards Izan. He had woken up not too long ago, and it baffled him a little too much that Izan was too much for him to handle, he had thought that he could at least match up with Izan"s Nen, but he couldn"t even do that.
"Hisoka." Izan"s eyes went towards Hisoka, the two of them were staring at each other, one was calm and the other one was furious. "You have noticed it too, haven"t you? You have a long way to go. Don"t worry, I will help you out in that regard, but before that, I need you to promise me something." Towards the ending, Izan"s expression began turning solemn.
And when he saw Hisoka nodding slightly, Izan continued to speak. "If you wish to be my right hand, remember to act like one. I don"t care if your goal is to become stronger than me, work for that. But, you whilst I am away, you must do your part in the group. May it be now, in the future in my Empire, or in the wars that I can"t attend to. Do you understand what I"m trying to say here?" Izan was not sure why, but he was putting his trust into Hisoka, because for some reason, Izan would only trust men like Hisoka. Men that have their own goals and wishes, and would do almost anything to reach it.
Hisoka was silent for a good few seconds, but it didn"t take long before Hisoka answered in a calm tone, yet his eyes were shining. "You will have only one thing to worry about, and that is to be stronger than me in the future. That I promise." Hisoka"s promise wasn"t only for Izan, but also himself.
"Good." Izan chuckled before walking towards Shirahoshi, he could see her barely gazing up towards him whilst blushing. Izan hugged her softly in his embrace, whispering into her ears. "Shirahoshi, I know you have it in you to become stronger. You know it yourself, our souls are matching perfectly, you have the potential to do anything you wish for. And whatever you wish for, I and your sisters will help you along the entire path. Therefore Shirahoshi, what do you want to do?" Of all of his wives, Izan was worried the most of Shirahoshi, not only because she was pregnant, but because of her personality.
Izan liked Shirahoshi"s gentle and tender personality, others could take advantage of that. As much as Izan disliked the thought of anyone taking any advantage of Shirahoshi, he wouldn"t force himself to make Shirahoshi change her view of the world. That was why he always was being careful and gentle with Shirahoshi, like all of his wives.
Whilst Izan was hugging Shirahoshi, he glanced at Perona, and when he saw her nodding, he felt slightly more at ease.
"Izan…" Shirahoshi mumbled in a weak voice whilst enjoying Izan"s embrace. She forgot that everyone was staring at them, or else she wouldn"t have dared to stay in Izan"s warm embrace for so long. "I… I want to become stronger, for our future together…" Shirahoshi"s only wish is to stay with Izan and her sisters, happily living together. And she knew for that to happen, all of them needed to become stronger and face the dangers that were hidden in Izan"s original world, the Real Universe.
After taking a few more minutes to hug all of wives and speak softly to them, Izan finally walked to the front door. He could sense that they were already above the continent, and he sensed some people going nearer the flying mansion. But Izan wouldn"t do anything to them.
"I will go now, take care of yourselves." Izan gazed at his wives once again gently, and his eyes glanced towards Calypso, Jiutian, Defying and Hisoka once, and he could see them barely nodding. After having seen all of this, Izan turned around towards the door.
The door opened by itself, and Izan simply walked out. And when he was outside, he glanced around. The door closed itself.
Izan didn"t find anything interesting, he picked a random direction and vanished, the very next moment, he appeared a few kilometres away, flying very swiftly through the sky, leaving only behind the crazy thunderous sound of him breaking the sound of wall.
