Frank heard from Gwendolyn about the Demon King, the Heroes who had been gathered and training to reach a good enough level of strength to fight against this calamity, about the Abyssal Spawns, and more.

​​

Gwendolyn and the rest had been revealed about the Ancient Order from Reuberto some months ago and were updated about all this confidential information because Reuberto knew that these people were important to Frank and could be considered as his Hero Party, special people who were part of a Hero's destiny, and received enhanced growth in cultivation, power, and spells due to being connected to the Hero through their destiny.

Although Gwendolyn did not reveal to Reuberto that Frank came from another world nor any of such things, but she did speak about his unusual Magic and the many types of spells he possessed, which made him a genius amongst geniuses in the entire world of Terra…

Knowing about all of this, at last, Frank felt like he had a lot of things to do now.

Aside from all of this, he also wanted to go back to Earth at least for a single day to speak with Matsuo and Harumi about what he really is, and find out if they were still his friends.

Alongside that, he also wanted to find the artifacts to revive his parents completely, as even with all the powers he had, fully recreating a new body as he wanted for them was not possible.

Having these artifacts would finally give him the ability to do so.

And no, he looked every possible way already, even his App Shop, which had been recently unlocked when he woke up and found out that the quest to forge a bond with Gwendolyn and everyone else had already been completed while he was sleeping.

He had glanced at the App Shop, finding many interesting items, but anything that could do what he desired costed exorbitant amounts of App Points, and there seemed to be a way to refine his App Points into higher levels of quality at later stages, which he needed to do several times to even fathom the possibility of buying such powerful items.

Knowing that Vheslia was coming tomorrow morning and possibly that Reuberto would finally come to retrieve him to meet with the other Heroes in the capital of the Country, Frank decided to plan his next course of action for the moment.

But everything he truly wanted to do was to rest and relax with those he loved…

He sighed for a bit, as everyone around him felt the enormous pressure he was already taking over his shoulders, and the responsibilities that were to come to his life…

He had been in a coma for months, increasing his power, and the moment he woke up he already had to fight a creature that was immensely strong, now, that he thought he could catch a break, they were telling him that he would have to not join Heroes and train as much as he could to defeat the Demon King and save the world.

Indeed, it was very stressful.

"Nii-sama…" muttered Kamei.

"Frank… I understand how you feel you… let me tell you that you are not alone in this!" said Gwendolyn.

"Indeed, we are here for you, boy. We have been fighting all of this time so we could finally be of some use for you, we want to bear the burdens with you too! We are… a family, right?" asked Cathyl.

"Yeah! Frank-kun, I know how you feel… Many times I felt overwhelmed by how things were changing and how much I needed to adapt to everything… but I am grateful that I have everyone to help me out, and it is the same for you!" said Hilvera with a gentle and adorable smile.

"That's right! Mom and my sister are right! Frank-aniki, we are here for you! I shall be your muscles and… your axe too! It has really been a pain to train so much, really, sometimes I was so exhausted I fell asleep out of nowhere! But… I think we already got long past that point and we had begun to become accustomed to this! I mean, my body doesn't feel at all like it used to be!" said Asterion.

Indeed, just as Asterion said, everyone had both changed physically and mentally, they were not the same as before, their minds were more mature, their bodes had also matured more and grown stronger, Asterion already resembled a young adult Minotaur, at least two times his original size before Frank went to sleep.

It really felt as if more than six months happened, and Frank attributed their fast physical and mental growth to the difficulties, challenges, and more they underwent with his absence, alongside the Leveling Up that they had, which made their bodies incredibly strong through the boost of Stats.

Much like Frank's body, because their former small bodies were not able to take in all the boost made by stats, their own bodies developed and evolved, which hastened their physical maturity.

Even those that were already adults such as Cathyl grew in size and became even amazingly strong and mature… and Gwendolyn as well, as she resembled an incredibly beautiful and strong woman, and Frank was sure that she grew a few centimeters and packed some nice muscles below her feminine dress as she did not specialize in magic alone but also Strength and Defense.

To Frank, it felt as if he had jumped a few years into the future, but outside, only 6 months went by…

And even Kamei had grown up a lot, she was now near looking like a young woman now, albeit her cuteness and dependence on her onii-sama were as strong as ever, and whenever she was with him, she acted like a very spoiled little girl.

"Everyone… I see how it is. I am glad that all of you are… so strong now. I will make sure to put you all to work! So do not complain later, alright?" asked Frank with a cheerful demeanor, feeling as if the weight of his shoulders finale… lightened.

"Sure thing! Leave it to us, we just want you to relax for these little days until we depart, okay?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Yeah, yeah~!" said Cathyl.

Everyone cheered and lifted the spirits Frank, talking and interacting, laughing, eating with him, and simply creating an atmosphere that he missed a lot when he was in his coma…

It made his reformed heart begin to beat faster… for the first time, he was looking forward to an adventure with his friends, and perhaps to even save the world.

For once, he felt like he was prepared, and that he genuinely wanted some action too.

Maybe he was getting accustomed to fights?

Or perhaps he was becoming a battle junkie?

Frank did not really know what was up with his own heart anymore, but anything that involved being with those he loved made him happy, and he always to look forward to that…

Which led to this…

"About that… I also wanted to tell you that I am planning on going to Earth for a bit, perhaps a few hours a day…" said Frank.

Everyone felt a bit silent about this.

They knew what he had gone through on Earth…

And that he was being chased down by someone dangerous that wanted him dead.

But he felt like he was ready to go back, at least, to be within the territory of the Monk Clan or meet Harumi on her own territory.

Unlike the last time he was there, Frank now had many ways of fighting, and also of escaping.

Frank knew that Wasp was still probably overwhelmingly strong compared to him…

But it was not as if he were planning to avenge his parents now, that should be for later, and he had no intentions of fighting Wasp either, so if he were to ever meet him, he would make sure to run away.

At the very least, he wanted to meet his friends from Earth, who also had a place in his heart.

He still had so much that he wanted to know about them, especially of Harumi and even Erika.

And even more, there was a big world there waiting for adventures too, place she wanted to visit, monsters that he wanted to defeat, and new strengths that he wanted to acquire.

"Are you sure…?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Frank…" muttered Cathyl.

"Nii-sama… do you really want us to go back there? I… I can't help but want to too!" said Kamei.

"Yes… I want to go, but we will only go temporarily, as Terra will be our main home planet for now. There are also many worlds I wanted to visit in the future, each one has special powers that I want to gather to hasten my growth, there is something above everything that I need to defeat after all," said Frank, reminding everyone about the Overseers he had spoken about earlier.

"I see…" said Cathyl.

"Well, you can go then, not like we can stop you, right?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Indeed! You are free to do whatever you want… Just never forget about us, okay?" asked Hilvera.

"Even if you travel through many worlds, always remember that you are welcome here!" said Asterion.

"Y-Yeah… Always remember that, okay?" asked Annabelle.

"Hm? What are you talking about? I am not going away from you guys… You all are coming with me! I have decided it!" said Frank.

"EH?!"

Everyone gasped!

"Y-You want us to go to another world?!" asked Gwendolyn.

"Wait, what?! Can we even do that?!" asked Cathyl.

"Really?! That's awesome!" said Asterion.

"Oooh! Amazing, I can't wait!" said Hilvera.

"That's… I thought you were only going to go with Kamei…" said Annabelle.

"What? No! All of you are coming with me. It has already been proven that those that I share the System with are able to travel to any world at my side, just like Kamei could!" said Frank.

Frank has decided it!

He was bringing his whole party to Earth!

Matsuo and Harumi are about to meet their friends from another world as well!

Everyone around Frank began to feel excited about such possibilities!

They always wondered how amazing Frank's original world could be what types of wonders laid in such a place!

And now, they were going there?!

"But Frank… You said that Humans lived through most of that world, wouldn't it be weird that we went there, as we are Beast-kin?" asked Cathyl, a bit worried about her horns and her feet that were like those of cows.

"Don't worry about that, on Earth there are also many Demi-Human races, they use special accessories to hide their body parts quite easily, I will craft some for all of you (or buy them in the App Shop) so we can go there!" said Frank.

"I guess… there's no way out of it, huh? Alright then, boy, we'll go with you!" said Gwendolyn.
