Chapter 431: Cosmic Travels: First Stop, Planet Type-Moon?!
....
Zip~!
The Chokuto dissolved and shifted, reassembling into the Space-Time Cube that floated steadily around Seito's body.
Seito then glanced at the fifth and final effect. This one was quite straightforward: masking his aura, location, cultivated realm, and divine presence—plain and literal in its purpose.
"Not bad at all."
Seito was extremely pleased with his new Origin Treasure. With a single thought, he recalled the Space-Time Cube into his sea of consciousness and stood up. Now that everything here was settled, it was time to join the party at the Hostess of Fertility.
Half an hour later...
Pushing open the heavy wooden door of the Hostess of Fertility, Seito stepped inside. The moment he walked through, the lively, bustling atmosphere washed over him.
The tavern was packed with familiar faces: Iori Kitahara, Kaguya Shinomiya, the core members of the Loki Familia, Hephaestus, and Hestia's Familia. Even Tet and several gods from the Game Planet were hanging out together, making the atmosphere exceptionally rowdy.
Seito's entrance didn't draw too much chaotic attention. Sweeping his gaze across the room, he spotted the table where Sora, Hestia, Nyaruko, and Tet were sitting, walking straight over to join them.
"You're finally here," Sora said, shifting over to make room.
"Yeah," Seito nodded, taking a seat beside Sora.
"Seito, did your Origin weapon finish nurturing?" Nyaruko leaned in, asking with bright, curious eyes.
"Yep," Seito replied with a grin. "Just like you mentioned earlier, what came out wasn't just a standard Origin Artifact, but a genuine Origin Treasure!"
Hearing this, everyone's curiosity was instantly piqued.
"What kind of effects does an Origin Treasure have?" Nyaruko pressed eagerly.
Without keeping them in suspense, Seito gave a concise breakdown of the Space-Time Cube's capabilities. Listening to the specs, the group couldn't help but look at him with deep envy—the weapon's utility was simply off the charts.
Taking a bite of roasted meat, Tet chimed in cheerfully, "So, what are your plans for the remaining three mythos factions in the God-King Star Sector?"
After a moment's thought, Seito answered, "You guys can handle those as you see fit.
Just make sure Sora secures a Main God Authority along the way."
With that, Seito raised his right hand, summoning a orb of pure white light in his palm.
"These are all my remaining Divine Power Points. They're all yours."
He handed the orb over to Sora, who accepted it without standing on ceremony. Everyone thoroughly approved of Seito's approach—after all, he was the undisputed authority in the God-King Star Sector now.
The gathering wrapped up on a high note. After finishing their meal, the group returned to their compound. With about a week left before school resumed, time was moving surprisingly fast.
DanMachi World, Orario.
Seito's Familia Compound.
Returning to the residence, the executives, Tet, Hestia, and Nyaruko settled down to relax. Seito naturally pulled out his phone to resume scrolling through videos.
"Seito, do you want to head over to Alaya's planet with me for a bit?" Nyaruko asked, looking over at him lazily.
"Alaya's planet?" Seito paused. Heading over to hang out on a world overseen by Alaya?
That sounded pretty intriguing. One of the primary worlds Alaya oversaw was Planet Type-Moon itself—it bound to be an entertaining visit.
"Should we try searching for the planet managed by Arceus instead?" Seito suddenly suggested.
Type-Moon was fantastic, but Pokemon was equally iconic! The stories originating from both worlds were absolute legendary classics back in pop culture, so Seito held high expectations for both.
"Finding Arceus's planet is no easy task," Nyaruko shook her head. "Arceus keeps its world thoroughly hidden and shielded. Normally, running into it randomly is practically impossible."
Hearing this, Seito didn't press the matter, asking instead, "Are we setting off right now?"
"Of course!" Nyaruko nodded eagerly.
Tucking his phone away, Seito stood up and turned to Kirukiru Amou and the others: "Nyaruko and I will be heading out for a short trip. We can stay in touch through the chat channel in the meantime."
"Got it!" Kirukiru Amou responded casually.
Exchanging a quick glance, Seito and Nyaruko vanished from the room together...
The Merged Universe.
Starlight hung high in the sky, brilliant yet shrouded in a vast, pitch-black expanse. Beneath its quiet beauty, the cosmos pulsed with underlying danger as nebulae flared into existence and collapsed into oblivion at every moment.
In a distant star sector, a planet bearing a striking resemblance to Earth floated quietly in the deep vacuum of space.
Currently, twilight was falling over this world.
Japan, Fuyuki City.
Seito and Nyaruko materialized inside a quiet alleyway, taking in their new surroundings.
"I didn't expect the historical trajectory of Planet Type-Moon to mirror Earth so closely," Seito murmured, expanding his perception across the world.
The historical progression here shared incredible similarities with Earth. Yet, Seito knew for certain this wasn't a matter of parallel universe theory—it was easily explained by the fact that Alaya served as the collective Counter Force for all humanity across the universe, naturally guiding historical developments toward similar beats.
However, the resemblance was purely historical. Unlike Earth, which had barely spent a year adapting to the supernatural era, Planet Type-Moon had always been a world centered around magic and mystery!
"Where are we heading first?" Nyaruko asked, glancing around with curiosity.
"Let me check," Seito rested his chin in his hand.
Using his sensory abilities, he immediately picked up on numerous familiar signatures nearby: Kiritsugu Emiya, Artoria, Tokiomi Tohsaka, Gilgamesh, Zouken Matou, Rider Iskandar, and many others.
It was clear that Planet Type-Moon was currently in the middle of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
However, the Holy Grail itself raised a brief question in Seito's mind—here, the Grail was essentially a man-made divine artifact crafted through the Third Magic. Still, none of that particularly concerned him, as he was merely here as a tourist.
"Oh? Looks like King Arthur and the unlucky Lancer are already clashing?"
Sensing the battle unfolding in Fuyuki City, a subtle smirk curved Seito's lips. The timing couldn't have been better—they had arrived right as the very first clash of the Fourth Holy Grail War was kicking off!
"What is it?" Nyaruko asked, noticing his knowing smile.
