Cloud let out a sigh of irritation when he saw how all the girls were reluctant to the idea of talking about it, so he decided to let it go, at least for now.
"Are you alright?" - Remia asked as she looked worriedly at her husband.
"Yeah, just tired and upset that none of you want to tell me about what happened while I was unconscious," Cloud replied as he looked around.
The women looked away as Cloud let out a sigh - "Nothing serious happened?"
"No, the most serious thing was that you didn't wake up" - Meiru answered seriously.
"I see..." - Cloud replied as he felt horrible, not because he was in pain, but because not being able to move his body, he felt helpless, he didn't feel so weak since he became the user of the [system].

"Ugh... I finally made it back..." - Eri muttered as she let out a sigh seeing that nothing had happened as she returned to her beloved - "Huh? Where is he?"
[He's heading to the dark shrine right now with all the necessary sacrifices.]
"Tch, I didn't expect to hear your voice so soon, Ehit-sama" - Eri said with a frown - "I almost died during this operation."
[If you die, it is your own weakness, I am not to blame for it.]
Eri clicked her tongue again before walking in the direction of the shrine - "Does this mean that we can finally fulfil our wishes?"
[Yes, before long everything will go as you wish].
"Perfect" - smiled Eri as she thought of the wonderful future now that Kouki could control the darkness instead of being controlled by it - "Let's go, we don't have time to waste."
[. . .]
"Is something wrong?" - Eri asked as she noticed how the mad god had stopped talking.
[No... it's nothing...]
Eri shook her head as she put this aside, after all, it was far more important to be reunited with her beloved Kouki-kun, unaware that she was walking towards the end of her road.

"Have our informants found anything about the disappearances?" - Rika asked as she looked around the office.
She hadn't changed much during all this time, except with her skin now tanned from training for so long. Yes, she had returned to her old appearance, which honestly made her feel more comfortable.
"Sorry, Miss Rika, we haven't found anything" - replied an adventurer while looking at the girl's prominent curves.
For her beauty, Rika was considered one of the most beautiful women in the capital, and it didn't help that she had a figure that even the most famous sex workers envied.
Rika ignored the gaze, because if she got annoyed every time someone looked at her with lust, she would have to kill more than half of the population of this city.
"This is problematic, after all, disappearances have become too frequent in the outer zone of the human realm" - muttered Rika while frowning - "Captain, I would like you to send this letter to princess Liliana".
"I understand" - nodded the new captain of the guard as he left the room.
"Meeting over, go complete your orders" - said Rika seriously.
"Understood!" - exclaimed the men as they walked out of the room behind the captain of the guard.
Rika let out a sigh as she looked at her Stats, which had risen to their maximum.

Rika nodded at how much she had improved since she had appeared in this world, though she still couldn't be anything compared to the power of the other girls in their group, though this wasn't like they could blame her, not when their starting points were very different, I mean, it was obvious that they were all equal in the 'hierarchy' of the group, but when it came to power, it was a very different thing, and she as a former member of the sniper team, she didn't like the idea of being someone weak.
"But even in the group, I'm the one who has grown the least..." - Rika muttered as she sighed again.
Saya was a simple girl, though thanks to Tabane Shinonono, she has increased her physical power, and to her annoyance, she couldn't go through that process because according to Tabane's own words, she could increase her power by herself, and this was true because if she talked about power, Saya Takagi wouldn't be able to train like them and would end up falling behind, in other words, this process of Tabane, would only work if the person who went through it, was physically weak or didn't have the possibility of being able to train with good results.
Rika now remembered her best friend/roommate from her old world, Shizuka Marikawa. To her growing surprise, the blonde nurse was the most trained of the group along with Chifuyu Orimura and Sakuya, in fact, with the two of them she not only increased her physical power, but also her medical knowledge, it was a surprise for everyone to see how smart Shizuka was, more so when she always showed her clueless attitude, which made them forget that she was a certified nurse, in other words, no matter how stupid she looked, she had the intellect to be able to pass the medical career, which was one of the most difficult in the world.
Back to the initial point, all girls were constantly training and improving, as for her, she had not been able to learn the power of the Nen, she could not go through Tabane's process, her training in military weaponry had stagnated, and she had no way to awaken some kind of inner power, at least until she came to this world and managed to increase her power by using the laws of the dimension, unlocking all the dormant potential within her.
"Excuse me, Miss Rika" - said a soldier as he entered the office of the beautiful purple-haired woman - "News came in about the disappearance of another group of civilians near the border with the dark earth..."
Rika frowned because this seemed like too much of a coincidence, so she quickly pulled out a map and instructed the soldier to mark where this information had come from.
The soldier followed her instructions and marked the correct spot.
Rika was silent before pulling out the old reports and marking the other locations to see if she could find a pattern now that she had many more clues, though this one was still strange.
"Have we heard any more reports near this area?" - Rika asked with a frown - "It doesn't matter if they are reports of kidnappings by slavers..."
The soldier thought for a few seconds before telling the purple-haired girl that he would return with the reports about slavers.
Rika stared at the map as she drew the pattern on a separate sheet of paper and started to scribble on the desk - "No matter how much I look at it, the pattern doesn't seem to follow any exact direction..."
The woman was angry that despite experience, Kouki had remained hidden for all these months.
"Am I ignoring something?" - Rika muttered as she stared at the map in annoyance, though to no favourable results - "Or maybe I'm overthinking it?"
Rika slowly closed her eyes as she noticed something, she quickly brought her face closer to the map as she let out a small laugh - "I see..."
"Miss Rika, here I bring the slavers' reports" - said the soldier as he entered and saw how the purple haired woman was laughing - "Did something happen?"
"Yes, I want you to call all the adventurers, it's time to mobilize" - said Rika with a small smile as she marked a huge line on the map after reading the slavers report - "We have to do it fast or we won't make it".
The soldier looked at the map and was shocked - "So he wasn't going to the dark land?"
"Oh, he was, or rather, he already was..." - Rika replied while frowning - "It's even possible that someone sent him what he needed from that place, that's why he is heading to.... this place..."
"This place?" - repeated the soldier as he saw the huge circle the purple-haired woman drew on the map - "If I remember correctly, that's a forbidden forest because a dark miasma covers much of it.... Wait, that doesn't make sense, no one can touch that miasma because it's highly corrosive and poisonous!"
"Then he must have a method" - Rika replied with a darkened look.
