From the hero's knowledge, he was a being from the highest dimension. There were lower dimensions and the living being there couldn't hope to match the living being in higher dimensions.
But Souta's explanation changed his view...
Actually, the moment he arrived here he already realized it. This planet has its own laws and concepts that felt like it was alive. It was different from outer space which was made weaker but at the same time, it felt like the two were connected.
This was different from his universe. He traveled to countless galaxies yet it was still the same back there. Even the lower dimension was nothing to him. He could easily crush it. It was then that he realized that the outer space was infinite. If he wanted to break through he had to shatter the space but that alone would only lead him to the lower dimensions. There seems to be an invisible barrier that he couldn't describe. He tried countless times to verify if there was really outside space and time he was in.
It was then that he heard a voice in his head calling for him.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Souta's explanation was simple. He only said what Saya said to him about Boundaries and other shits.
"Let me ask you a question... How many levels of lower dimensions are in your world?" Souta asked.
"There are countless dimensions in my world but they are divided into four levels. My world is the highest and the rest are all lower dimensions." The hero answered.
"So it's indeed a Boundary. It could contain a Four Shackles expert and that's already the limit. A Boundary contained countless Palaces then there was a Region that was weaker than Palace. The last one was called Particle. It is so weak to the point that the strong experts there who are capable of destroying planets or galaxies will only be able to destroy a small house on this very planet."
The hero nodded and said, "That's why I knew that I'm in some kind of higher dimension. I'm capable of traveling to a galaxy from another galaxy in less than a second yet I could do it in this world. It felt like my power was suppressed. I resonated with the laws and concepts of this planet so I could do what I could do back in my world but it seems that I'm wrong."
"Yeah, you are wrong. You shouldn't apply your common sense here. Each living planet here with mana density has its own laws and concepts. They are different yet at the same time they are connected to the Imperium. It's like they are a child of the Imperium which is probably why this is called Mother." Souta said.
He changed his posture.
"Okay, I've answered some of your questions first so can you answer why are you here?"
The hero looked down for a few seconds and said, "I wanted to come with you."
"Come with me?" Souta raised his eyebrows. "You are blessed by this world. If you leave it and go to another planet, you will not be able to receive its support. You will be back to your previous strength which is Three Shackles."
"I want to grow stronger. I'm like a god in my world so I want to know what's like a god in this world." The hero said.
Souta frowned. "You're not capable enough. If you think that there are only a few people stronger than me in my world that's where you're wrong. I'm still far from reaching god-level and you are the same. If you said something about god carelessly then you would get yourself killed."
"God isn't something you can disrespect openly..." Eilish added.
"Sorry... I know nothing about it but I didn't disrespect them. I just mentioned it." The hero said.
"Yeah, I know that you didn't have any ill intent but you shouldn't casually mention 'God' in other people," Souta warned in a low voice.
"I understand..." The hero nodded.
"Okay, now... Why did you think that I will let you come with me?" Souta asked.
"I don't know. I just wanted to try it. I have no way of finding your planet out there so might as well try to follow you." The hero said.
"You're quite brave but I will not permit it. I'm a member of a huge organization there so if I bring anyone with me, they will question me and I don't want to deal with that problem." Souta said.
"Then, I'll join your organization. I think I'm capable enough since..." The hero glanced at Eilish as if he was saying that if Eilish could join then he could join too. After all, he was stronger than Eilish. Eilish was only at Two Shackles while he was at Three Shackles.
"Hey, do you really think that it's easy to join?" Souta smiled.
Well, actually it's easy since he joined the organization without any problem. It's just promoting to higher ranks would be harder since the organization had to verify a person's background.
As for him, Athena handled this problem.
"I don't know but I will try my best. I can't afford to stay here anymore. My contract has broken since the Sydfri Kingdom had fallen." The hero said.
"Oh, your contract is broken? Can you tell me the specifics of that contract?" Souta asked.
The hero slowly explained to Souta what he knew about the summoning contract. Just like what Souta expected, this was really similar to the demon contract. It's just that there were too many restrictions on its use.
'So I can't get it since the full details are gone along with the Sydfri Kingdom... As for the demon contract, I can't do it since it's an oath of the demon bloodline. It's their innate ability.' Souta rubbed his chin. He shook his problem and glanced at the hero.
Until now, he didn't sense any lies in the hero's words. Everything was true so Souta had a favorable impression of this guy.
Fine, I'll use him...
Souta sighed and said, "Okay, I will bring you back to my world but I want you to accept my condition."
"What is it?" The hero asked.
"It's simple." Souta opened his palm, and a small egg formed on top of it. "This is a parasite. I want you to accept it inside your body so that I can monitor your movements. Also, I want you to do something for me."
"That is..." The hero stared at the parasite egg and his eyes glowed with green light. After a while, he frowned and said, "You want me to place that inside my body? Once that thing integrates with my flesh it will be hard to remove it."
"As expected, you have control over this world's laws so seeing through this parasite is simple. But I will not bring you to my world if you don't want to do it." Souta opened his arms widely. "What if you caused trouble there? It would bring me trouble since I'm the one who brought you there."
The hero turned silent at his words. The parasite egg was easy to destroy but once the parasite integrated itself into his flesh then it would become like his own limbs so removing it would be hard. Plus, he had a feeling that Souta wasn't telling him the most crucial point about the parasite.
He thought about it for a few minutes. In the end, he agreed to Souta's condition.
"Fine, I will fuse that parasite to my flesh." The hero nodded.
Souta smiled widely. "Good," He clapped and said, "Then let's start the process immediately. The parasite is too weak to even pierce your skin even if you drop your natural protective field, so I want you to eat it. Once you eat the egg, focus your attention on the egg and simply guide it with your mana. The digestive system of a Three Shackles expert is too strong. It could die so guide it carefully."
This was the problem with transferring a parasite to a strong being. A Three Shackles' body was too strong even after lowering forcefully lowering the strength. Even if the hero was sleeping and doing nothing, the parasite wouldn't even be able to integrate itself into the hero's flesh. That's why it needed the hero's help.
It took a whole thirty minutes before the parasite started to merge with the hero's flesh. It was longer than usual.
Souta stood up and reached out his hand, "I'm Souta Ieshi, to our future cooperation."
The hero grabbed Souta's hand with a smile. "I'm Vashno Xardo, it's my pleasure to work with you."
The two talked for a while before they bid their farewell to the royal family of Arsen Kingdom. They then departed and teleported back to the Imperium.
On their way back, Souta said his plan to the hero named Vashno. They arrived at the Station Brick in outer space directly above the Champion's Den. Souta didn't let Vashno wander since he had to register this guy and write a report about this to the higher-ups.
There was nothing he could do about it. It was a formal process.
