The bustling atmosphere of the Saitama Grand Mall had ground to an absolute halt. The sheer, ethereal presence of Queen Sephie Michaela Deviluke and her royal entourage had unwittingly placed the surrounding human crowd into a trance-like state of awe.
Standing just a few yards away, holding several shopping bags, Rito Yuuki felt his soul nearly leave his body. Haruna Sairenji wasn't doing much better; she instinctively hid slightly behind Rito, overwhelmed by the suffocating, majestic aura radiating from the beautiful women in front of them.
Lala, however, completely ignored the heavy tension in the air. Her eyes lit up with pure joy.
"Mother! Auntie Echinacea! Momo, Nana!" Lala cheered, waving her hands enthusiastically. She paused, tilting her head at the stoic blonde girl reading a book.
"And... who is that? A new friend?"
"She is golde darkness or we usually call yami, a hired bodyguard to escort your sisters," Sephie explained gently.
While Sephie's gaze softened at the sight of her eldest daughter, Echinacea Michaela locked her serene purple eyes directly onto the tall young man standing next to Lala.
Jay calmly adjusted his shopping bags, unaffected by the royal stares. He looked at Rito and Haruna, who were practically petrified.
"Let's take this somewhere private," Jay said smoothly. He reached into his coat pocket, pulled out a thick stack of ten-thousand yen bills, and shoved it directly into Rito's trembling hands.
Before Rito could protest, Jay's voice echoed directly into his mind via telepathy.
I've funded your date. I'm handling my in-laws, so you two go enjoy yourselves. Don't mess this up and make sure she has a good time. Good luck.
Rito's face flushed a violent shade of red. He looked at the stack of cash, then at Jay, and finally at Haruna.
"O-Okay! We'll be going now! Have a nice family meeting!" Rito bowed frantically, gently grabbing Haruna's hand and sprinting away from the terrifying alien royals.
Ten minutes later, the group was seated in a lavish, soundproofed VIP room.
Once the door clicked shut, Jay let out a soft sigh. He took off his black cap, pulled down his surgical mask, and removed his dark sunglasses, finally revealing his true face to the room.
For a brief, silent second, the atmosphere shifted completely.
Sephie's eyes widened slightly. He is... breathtakingly handsome. I thought he was charmanian too she thought, momentarily caught off guard by his sharp white hair and piercing, calm eyes that held an ancient maturity far beyond his apparent age.
Sitting next to her, the twins both felt a sudden rush of heat to their cheeks.
Woah... Aneue fiancé is incredibly gorgeous, Nana thought, her heart skipping a beat.
Momo simply stared, a small, intrigued smile forming on her lips as she analyzed his perfectly composed, confident demeanor.
However, the two deadliest women in the room were focused on something entirely different.
Golden Darkness kept her face emotionless, but internally, she was sweating. The moment Jay removed his disguises, an invisible, crushing weight filled the room.
I can barely breathe, Yami thought, her grip tightening on her book.
What is this human? This isn't just strength. It's a complete anomaly.
Echinacea simply smiled, though her purple eyes were practically glowing. She had sensed it in the mall, but seeing him face-to-face confirmed it. The 'Depth of Power' within this boy was an infinite abyss. Gid Lucione Deviluke's aura was like a roaring sun, but Jay felt like the vacuum of space itself—quiet, all-encompassing, and capable of swallowing that sun whole without a trace.
Sephie quickly regained her regal composure.
"Jay Oosuki. My husband told me about your... exploits. You slaughtered dozens of mercenary syndicates and hung the severed heads of planetary leaders in their own capitals."
"I did," Jay answered bluntly, leaning back in his chair.
"They pay mercenaries who attempted to kidnap my mother when i arrive to their space ship you know what i see? They almost attempt assault my adoptive mother. Was wiping them out an overreaction? Probably. But I did it to send a very clear message to the cosmos. No one touches my family. And because of that massacre, no one in the universe will ever thinking to lay a finger on Lala either."
Sephie fell silent. She could not deny the absolute, ruthless effectiveness of his logic.
"I see,"
Sephie sighed.
"Then let me ask you this. What are your true feelings for my daughter?"
"I have a genuine interest in her," Jay answered honestly.
"I like her energy and her brilliance. But I will not lie to you and claim it is some profound, undying love. We just met. That kind of emotional bond takes time to build."
Jay paused, his expression remaining perfectly flat.
"Also, for the sake of transparency, you should know I already have another fiancée recently she accepted my feeling."
Sephie gasped, she flaring up in shock. Momo and Nana's jaws dropped.
"That's completely fine!" Lala cheered, raising her hand enthusiastically.
"I want to have lots of friends and sisters to play with!"
Sephie buried her face in her hands, completely speechless at her daughter's absolute lack of jealousy.
"Well," Echinacea chimed in, stepping forward. The fragile noblewoman aura vanished, instantly replaced by the terrifying presence of the Thorny Rose.
"You are a remarkably pragmatic young man. My instincts tell me that the gap in our power is staggering. However... as the premier swordswoman of the universe and Lala's aunt, I simply cannot hand her over without testing your mettle with my own two hands."
Jay let out an amused huff. "A spar? Sure."
He snapped his fingers.
In a fraction of a millisecond, the VIP room vanished. The royal family found themselves standing in a massive, barren pocket dimension composed of reinforced cosmic rock.
Echinacea drew her rapier, her body blurring into a streak of blinding pink light. She unleashed her full power—a breathtaking, lethal dance of absolute precision, unleashing a flurry of thrusts aimed directly at Jay's vital points. Her speed was enough to slice a battleship in half before the crew could even blink.
Jay simply materialized Yamato in his left hand. He didn't even draw the blade.
With minimal, almost lazy movements, Jay swayed, side-stepped, and parried every single one of Echinacea's light-speed thrusts using only the dark blue scabbard of his katana. He moved like water, completely unbothered by the cosmic pressure of her attacks. He was effortlessly toying with the universe's greatest swordswoman.
Standing on the sidelines, Momo and Nana were utterly mesmerized.
*He's not just strong,* Momo thought, her eyes wide with fascination.
His movements are flawless. It's like watching a beautiful, deadly dance. And he looks so cool doing it...
*He's making Aunt Echinacea look like a complete beginner!* Nana thought, gripping her sister's arm, entirely captivated by his absolute dominance.
Echinacea gritted her teeth, her competitive spirit flaring as she poured her entire magical reserve into one final, world-ending thrust.
Jay decided it was time to end the warm-up. He gripped the hilt of Yamato.
*Click.*
He unsheathed it a single inch and snapped it back into place.
***Judgement Cut.***
Space itself fractured. A localized sphere of infinite, reality-severing slashes materialized completely around Echinacea, bypassing the concept of distance. The slashes didn't touch her skin, but they perfectly shredded the space surrounding her blade, completely neutralizing her momentum and disarming her in an instant.
Echinacea stood frozen, her rapier clattering to the rocky ground. Instead of anger, a deep flush of pink spread across her cheeks. Her purple eyes shone with intense intrigue.
"I yield," Echinacea whispered softly.
"You are... truly extraordinary."
Jay dismissed Yamato and snapped his fingers, teleporting everyone directly to his final destination.
**Location: Jay's Estate - Saitama**
The group materialized right in the front courtyard of Jay's newly built mega-estate.
The front door opened, and Mamako Oosuki stepped out, wearing a cute apron.
"Oh my!" Mamako beamed, her absolute, overwhelming Motherly Aura instantly neutralizing all the tension in the air.
"You must be Lala-chan's family! Please, come inside! I just baked some fresh cookies!"
Sephie's regal Queen persona shattered instantly. Disarmed by the hospitality, she allowed Mamako to usher the most powerful royal family in the universe into the living room.
Sitting on the living room sofa, drinking a mug of green tea, was Ygnisia.
"Oh, alien royalty," the Heavenly Dragon noted casually, taking a sip of her tea. She offered a small wave.
"I'm Ygnisia, Jay's other fiancée. Nice to meet you. The cookies are really good."
Before Sephie could even process that a legendary Heavenly Dragon was sitting in a suburban living room, Jay walked in and immediately delivered a light, dull karate chop to the top of Ygnisia's head.
"She is a freeloading dragon, not my fiancée," Jay corrected deadpan, completely ignoring Ygnisia's indignant glare as she rubbed her head.
"Don't listen to her delusions."
While the Deviluke family awkwardly but politely began conversing with Mamako, Jay stood near the hallway. His quantum-encrypted phone buzzed.
[Utaha Kasumigaoka]: Boss, do you have a minute? It's personal, but I'm 100% sure it involves an anomaly i think? I don't feel safe, and I want to know if the company can deal with it.
Jay raised an eyebrow and typed back:
Tell me everything.
[Utaha Kasumigaoka]: There's a new transfer student from china in Tomoya Aki's class. He became friends with Aki and got invited to our circle, Blessing Software. But the way he looks at me, Eriri, and Megumi... it's disgusting. Like a hunter looking at prey.
[Jay Oosuki]: Lemme guess. Did he introduce himself as being from China, or did he specifically use the phrase 'Dragon Country' when talking to you guys?
[Utaha Kasumigaoka]: He did said Dragon Country. How did you know?
Jay smirked.
Yep. Definitely a transmigrator. Chinese fanfic at that.
[Utaha Kasumigaoka]: It gets worse. When I got home, I found a weird book on my desk. It says '(Ye Chen)'s Diary'. And it literally writes by itself.
[Jay Oosuki]: Read me the highlights.
[Utaha Kasumigaoka]:It's so cringe. He wrote about having 'Huaxia blood' and how he transmigrated into a 'Crossover Anime World'. He literally wrote that he can't wait to 'taste all the heroines'. But there's a part where he seems confused. He wrote that he is terrified of NEXUS Corp because it holds 40% of the world's economy, and he doesn't remember this existing in any anime plot. He said he couldn't find information on the true owner, only the CEO, Masato Sanada and the current Prime Minister Mikogami Tsukasa. He also confirmed the existence of the '7 Geniuses' (from that obscure Isekai anime), which makes him scared. But he wrote that he is firm in using his 'Diary System' to conquer this world and make us his property. Oh, and Megumi and Eriri texted me. They got copies of the diary too.*
Jay let out a dark, amused chuckle, locking his phone.
Usually, he would just instantly erase an arrogant transmigrator the moment they breathed the same air as him. But a 'Diary System' MC who thought he was the main character of a harem novel?
"A typical Chinese system host," Jay muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with a predatory light.
"Alright, Ye Chen. Usually, I'd just kill you. But this is interesting. Let's play a little game."
A/N: To clarify something about the Ghoul incident, Utaha did NOT see Jay's real face. He was wearing a pitch-black tactical suit, and his voice was heavily distorted. Jay hates the "damsel in distress falls for the handsome savior" trope, so he stays entirely anonymous on the job
second about NEXUS CORP Leadership Jay and his clone never appears in public. He appointed Masato Sanada(the genius merchant from High School Prodigies Have It Easy Even In Another World) as the public CEO of NEXUS Corp. Jay became the shadow owner of the world's economy by hoarding untouched resources across another world specifically it was tohru home world during his training with Lucoa and the Emperor of Demise. His initial startup capital was and several thoru father assets that given to him roughly 1000 tons of pure gold. FYI that is roughly $146 Billion USD, or approximately 23 Trillion JPY. And how can jay company's become 40 % world economy in just 2 years: first he helped shinomiya Gan'an reciver his health so yeah only few people know his identity and the result is the shinomiya ready give in some sponsorship and liquidity not to mention that's the first time they know supernaturals so yeah they want conncection so they even ready to buy all of gold in cash, second because of masato settings (he control 30% global economy CMIIW) so it loke advertising it using Nexus banner not forget to mention the seven genius in his team ringo , keine and his clone they invent many things that secure many things (i just tired explain like power plant with zero emission, many health discovery) no mention tsukasa political influence.
