Chapter 113:
Noboru sighed as his body was cleaned. The water was warm, and he was tired. He could barely keep his eyes open. All the sensations and feelings were overwhelming him.
"Are you feeling better?" Yami asked.
"Yes, thank you," he replied.
"I'm glad. Your well-being is important to us. I don't think you understand just how much you an to us, Noboru-kun," Aya said softly.
"Yeah, I'm starting to understand," Noboru replied.
"So, tell us what you're thinking," Yami said, resting her head on his chest.
"I'm not sure what my goal is supposed to be or what I'm supposed to do in this mory. But we can figure it out together."
"Indeed," Yami agreed, leaning closer to Noboru, her purple eyes staring into his.
"Don't worry, I'm sure we'll figure it out," Aya said reassuringly.
"Nyaa," Ayumi agreed, licking Noboru's ear, making him chuckle.
Noboru looked around the spacious bathroom. The tub was large enough for all four of them—and even more—to fit comfortably, and the walls were white marble with gold accents.
"Well then, let's get out and figure it out," Noboru said.
"Sure. You first," Yami said, gesturing toward the door.
"Right," Noboru agreed, getting up. As soon as he stood up, Ayumi jumped at him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, making him gasp in surprise.
"Ayumi-chan?"
"What? I'm helping you dry off. After all, we don't want you to slip," Ayumi replied, smirking.
"I can see that," Noboru agreed.
Ayumi's body was pressed tightly against his, and her nipples rubbed against his skin. It was extrely distracting, but he tried his best to ignore it.
"No fair, Ayumi-chan! How co you get to be close to Noboru-kun like that?" Yami complained.
"I'm his concubine; I'm allowed to do whatever I want with him," Ayumi retorted smugly.
"I am too," Yami replied.
"No, I am," Ayumi said.
"Both of you stop. I am Noboru-kun's official wife," Aya declared.
"Hmph," Yami and Ayumi both huffed in annoyance.
"Anyway, we should get moving," Aya said, getting up from the tub and drying herself off.
"Yes, let's," Noboru agreed, trying his best to ignore the feeling of Ayumi's breasts pressed against his skin.
"Okay," Ayumi said, reluctantly letting go of him.
Noboru dried himself off and quickly got dressed. He wanted to hurry up and find out what he needed to do. He put on his white robe, the sa one he'd been wearing when he entered Chronolux, and then he followed the three won to the door. Suddenly, a golden light appeared. The three won were on alert, not knowing what this was, but Noboru was relaxed, knowing that the light would soon die down to reveal the Sage. Noboru smiled at the man—well, not a man, but the embodint of knowledge—that guided him through this combat trial.
"Hero-sama, you must be wondering what your goal is here in Chronolux," the Sage said.
"I am wondering, and I hope you have the answer," Noboru replied.
"Of course. Your goal is to make the event that started Noboru Chikara's world phenonon happen," the Sage said cryptically, as Noboru's eyes widened. The clash of the two boundless beings that gave birth to omni energy and dinsion in Noboru Chikara's world—he had to make that happen.
"For if you don't, life as you know it will cease to be," the Sage added.
"So my goal is to start a battle between my father, the Golden Being, and my mother, the Red Being?" Noboru asked.
"If that is who you define as the boundless beings," the Sage replied.
"What will happen if I succeed?" Noboru asked.
"That is for you to find out," the Sage replied.
"What about the ti limit?"
"You have two days," the Sage replied.
"Two days? That's a lot of ti," Noboru said, surprised.
"Maybe or maybe not, but that's not your main goal. Your main goal is to redirect the energy to Noboru Chikara's howorld at a rate the world can absorb and give birth to the Anti-Damage force, turn the forbidden regions into Dinsium, and finally mutate the humans to be able to use omni energy. You must make sure events play out as they did in Noboru Chikara's history," the Sage explained.
Noboru nodded. He now knew what he needed to do and what he had to achieve. He had to make the battle happen, but the Sage had said that wasn't his main goal, and the Sage was never wrong. His real goal was the omni energy generated from the clash, and to redirect that energy to his world. He could figure out why to make sure that whatever happens to him, he can be reborn. He knew he would succeed in his mission, and then everything would fall into place.
"Good luck," the Sage said before disappearing.
"Who was that?" Yami asked.
"He is the Sage. He helps on the combat trials. Well, not just , but everyone taking it, guiding them on their adventure to complete it and transcend themselves," Noboru explained.
"Ah, I see. That makes sense," Yami replied.
"So, how do we make the war happen?" Ayumi asked.
"I don't know, Aya. You know most about my mother and father. What's the best way?" Noboru asked, as Aya thought. Noboru noticed she had that look, the one that showed she had an idea but hesitated, then put it away. She didn't like that idea, so she went back to thinking.
"Aya-chan, what was the idea?" Noboru asked, as Aya bit her lip and sighed.
"It's risky. I don't like it, but if you command , the best way is to use yourself, Noboru-kun. You are both their goals. Your father wants to destroy, and your mother wants to protect you. Right now, we are undetectable by your father, but if we bring you to his attention, we can use that and lure him to where your mother is," Aya explained, as Yami and Ayumi exchanged worried glances.
"So you're saying I have to use myself as bait? That's the best option? What are the other options?" Noboru asked.
"That's the only option right now. They fight with their pawns, their angels and demons. Only you can force your father to show up to kill you, and doing so will summon your mother instantly, causing a clash. However, we have another problem: the ti limit is two days. Two days for you to do everything—have the battle, redirect the energy, give birth to the Anti-Damage force, mutate the humans, and turn the forbidden region into Dinsium. If we can't do all that by the ti the ti limit runs out, then our lives—and the worlds as we know it—will be erased," Aya explained.
"We'll find a way," Noboru said confidently.
"But Noboru-kun, what if you... what if you get killed?" Ayumi asked nervously.
"Noboru-kun can't die. It's impossible," Yami said.
"Listen to , both of you. We will find a way to get everything done in the ti limit, and we will not lose. Understand?" Aya ordered.
"Yes, Lady Aya," they both said, bowing their heads.
"All we have to do is believe in Noboru-kun. I believe in you, my husband," Aya said, smiling at Noboru.
"I will not fail. I will find a way. Now, let's head to where the battle between my parents will happen. It's ti to end this," Noboru declared.
"Indeed," the three won agreed.
"So what did the Sage an by your world's phenonon?" Yami asked.
"Well, it all started so ti ago, during my great-great-grandfather's era. The world was hit by a clash between two boundless beings, and it mutated everything—the world, giving it the Anti-Damage force, the forbidden regions turning into Dinsium, and humans gaining omni energy. That's what happened in my world, and why the Sage wants to make that happen," Noboru explained, as the three won's eyes widened.
"I see. Well then, let's go," Yami said.
"Yeah."
The four of them prepared. They would succeed, and they would win. Noboru would finish the combat trial.
