Chapter 1305: Is This The Easy Life?
(MC POV)
Surprisingly, everyone actually said yes.
I thought that there might have been a few of them who would have wanted to stay behind or something but everyone seemed to be really keen on going with me.
"Just so you know... There's really nothing there right now, ok?" I cautioned them. "It's just an empty space right now."
"That means we can build it up from scratch! Isn't that great, Master?" Lian Li cheered.
I guess that's one way to see it.
Now that I think about it... Wasn't this their goal all along for their ascension to godhood?
The whole reason why they even set out on the path to divinity was so that they could follow me to the centre of the universe anyway. We just got sidetracked with other stuff in the meantime.
I mean... The date was worth it since my disciples were clearly much happier than before. Plus... I also enjoyed my time with them too.
"Alright then... Are you all prepared to go?" I asked.
Everyone nodded at me enthusiastically while we were gathered in the middle of my courtyard.
The servants were here to see us off but aside from them, no one else knew we were leaving. I've already sent the appropriate messages to the people close to us so they'll know about it in the coming days.
It's not like we would be leaving here forever so there's no need for a grand farewell or whatever. This is just going to be an extended vacation for us and we'll still come back from time to time.
The sad thing is that only divines are able to visit us as a normal mortal would go insane or even just die if they were to enter that space with me...
At least... That's what Iris told me would happen and omniscience also confirmed it.
Apparently that space was so concentrated with Origin energy that a normal mortal would not be able to withstand such a thing. Which was why my disciples weren't able to go there and sought godhood to go there.
Oh well... My disciples are coming with me so I don't really care about anything else.
Since everyone is ready, I willed us to teleport directly to the centre of the universe.
And just like that, we appeared in an endless, featureless white room.
"Hmm? This feels a little different than I remembered? Wasn't it supposed to be a dark empty space?" I mused.
"Ufufufu~ I may have taken the liberty to change things a little while Master was gone," Iris admitted before gesturing to the white space. "I made us a house, Master~ Isn't it nice?"
I mean... It's basically just a white room... At least there aren't walls and endless corridors all around us...
But the fact that Iris actually created something was already really sweet so I gave her a head pat.
Lian Li nodded at the white space around us, "So this will be our love nest from now on... Alright everyone! Let's get to work!!"
Hmm? What work?
Before I could even ask that question, all of my disciples started to fill this space with the power of their domains, shifting the reality and space of the entire area.
The white space then started to morph and change as my disciples' domains took hold, changing it as they willed it to.
Various things then started popping up all over the place including a garden, a large building, followed by an even larger building, then a pavilion, a wall and... What the heck... You guys just basically recreated my courtyard but bigger...
You even made the mountains as the background too...
It's almost like we never even left...
Then, as though they had planned this together, all of them arranged themselves in a line including Iris.
"Welcome home, Master!"
Correction, they actually did plan this together... No wonder they so easily accepted the idea to move here since Iris must have already planned this with them ahead of time.
Which means I was probably kind of 'guided' into agreeing to bring them here by Iris...
Oh I'm not mad. I'm actually really glad that the girls are getting along so well with Iris to plan such a thing. I was worried that they might forever be at odds with each other due to the past but now it seems like they're fine with each other now.
It's always better for everyone to get along after all.
And since they welcomed me home like that, there's only one response I can give them for this.
"I'm home."
That seemed to be the cue for them to rush towards me and do a group hug.
Awww~ Even Brendan, Iris and Cai Hong have joined the group hug~ You're all so cute! Of course I have to hug them back too!
"Ok seriously... How long have you all been planning this?"
Manami giggled, "Ufufufu~ Would Master be mad if we told you for a few weeks?"
So around the time where I was still on a date with the girls then... I wonder if something happened between them that made them decide to do this?
I then looked at the courtyard that they have basically recreated for us to live in.
"You know... Since the scenery still stayed the same... Wouldn't it feel like we never left to begin with?" I pointed out.
Lian Li nuzzled my chest, "Ehehe~ Isn't that a good thing, Master? Our best memories were made in Master's home after all~ Why wouldn't we want to stay there?"
"Hmm... I suppose one difference would be the fact that it would be just us in this space for now."
Diao Chan perked up, "Ohhh! That means there aren't any more outsiders that we need to worry about! We can now just have public se-- Owwwww!"
I smacked the horny little goddess on the head before she could finish her words.
Cai Hong is still here you naughty girl! At least say that when she isn't around!
Well... If I'm being honest though... I am actually a little glad that things would still remain somewhat the same even here...
My disciples and I would still live together and we would just spend the rest of eternity living in the centre of the universe. Then from time to time, we might just go out and visit some places and explore around.
Of course I'll still have to work on that other me to make the universe revolve around so hopefully I can get it done in the next few years. It's a really delicate process you see.
Now that I think about it...
Have I done it? Have I finally achieved the easy life I had been seeking all this while?
Easy life get?
