Harem Overlord

"The trapped spirits?" Gaia slowly asked with a confused expression as Kai told her about the situation of the spirit.

As he finished his story, he saw that an expression of disbelief had settled on Gaia's face. She stared at his face with examining eyes to see whether he was telling the truth or not but there was no reason for him to lie.

"But that wasn't supposed to happen. We had made the special realms in such a way that they could function without us. Why did they suddenly close?" Gaia muttered as Kai had a good answer for her question.

"It's probably because of the appearance of the new harem overlord." Kai replied as Gaia looked even more surprised.

"A new harem overlord? It feels great to be away from the mainstream society until you realize that you have gone too far away." She commented as Kai shrugged and looked at her face.

"You have two choices, Gaia. You can either leave everything here and come with me to the spirit realm to rescue the spirits who you ruled for so long. Or you can just stay here and wait for them to perish." Kai said as Gaia's face remained expressionless.

"I will come back and take your answer in two days. Think about it carefully Gaia. Can you live with the guilt of seeing so many spirits dying or will you be crushed under it?" Kai added as he suddenly vanished from the spot and left Gaia alone.

She stood in the same spot for a few minutes with a dazed expression on her face as she was thinking deeply about what Kai had said.

'And here I thought that I would be free of such decisions.' She thought silently as she clenched her fist tightly.

"Found anything?" Kai asked out loud as he teleported beside Laofen.

Since she was also used to this, she wasn't surprised by it. She instead raised one of her fingers to indicate that he should remain quiet.

"I found two suspicious-looking guys earlier. They were wearing the uniform of the guards and were doing everything correctly yet they stood out to me. Perhaps it was because of your skill." Laofen said slowly as Kai nodded.

"That ability will also make you see small suspicious things. So what did you find out about them?" Kai asked as Laofen pointed her finger forward.

They were currently inside what looked like a large storage room for cultivation techniques. There were many scrolls assorted by different colors and were arranged on different shelves.

"This place is where we have stored every single cultivation which was founded since the founding of this realm. It could be considered as our royal treasury." Laofen explained as Kai raised his eyes.

"Looks like it isn't guarded properly. After all, those two guys are searching the scrolls way too casually." Kai muttered as he pointed at the other end of the room.

Two men, guys who were apparently the men laofen had mentioned about, were growing through all the scrolls placed on the smallest shelf in the entire room.

The shelf only had a total of ten scrolls on it and all of them were ocean blue in color. 

"Damn, I thought this place would have a huge secret cultivation technique but this can't even compete with the level of cultivation techniques we give the newbies." One of the men muttered in a sour voice as he tapped his chest twice.

His clothes suddenly changed from the uniform of the royal guards to a pair of loose white robes with a royal red dragon etched on the back.

"We are still on the elven realm, anyone can see us here. Even though we are still under a transformation formation, don't take your tail out. Anything can happen." The second man second as the first one rolled his eyes.

"You are too cautious man. It's not like anyone can do anything against us. Just chill a little." The second man said as a long white cat tail suddenly came out from under his clothes.

"So they are from the animal realm." Laofenmutterde as Kai nodded and the two of them kept looking forward. The other man sighed as his clothes also changed.

He was wearing black robes with the same royal red dragon symbol on the back. A black panther's tail came out from under his clothes as it coiled up at the end.

"Guess you are right, we don't need to be this cautious when we are under such a powerful formation. But we should still remember to not become extremely carefree and make a mistake." He replied as the first man nodded with a smile on his face.

The only special characteristics both the males had were their tails and other than that, they looked like normal humans.

Their ears were also under a formation which made them look pointy and long like an elf's ears and if not for the ability Kai gave to her, Laofen wouldn't have been able to see this.

But as she turned to ask him what they should do, she saw that his face was on high alert and his eyes were carefully examining the robes the two males were wearing.

"Laofen, we definitely need to catch these two." Kai muttered as he saw a symbol on the front side of both of the men's robes.

The symbol was the same symbol that belonged to the organization.

And there was a chance that if Kai managed to capture the two people and check their memories, he would be able to find the organization's plans were or at least get a brief idea about them.

"I can't sense their cultivations. depending on how powerful they are, you can definitely catch them, right?" Laofen asked as Kai nodded

"I am at the semi-divinity realm Laofen and I can defeat people at the soul divinity realm. But both of them are at the soul divinity realm so I wonder how this would go." He replied as he decided to keep watching the two men to see what their next move would be.

"Since we haven't found anything valuable from here, should we just contact them back and tell them that we are coming back?" The first man asked as the second one thought about it for some time before he nodded.

Kai's eyes suddenly started glowing as he saw that there was a small earring on the right ear of the first person.

[ Kosma, I need your help right now! ] Kai suddenly said mentally as he saw a one-way cultivation scroll inside the space ring.

[ Don't worry Kai, I have already taken out that scroll and they don't even know it. though they have a second scroll. ] Kosma replied immediately as Kai could no longer see the scroll inside of the space ring.

The second male then took out a similar scroll and opened it. The two of them then went silent for a few minutes before the scroll suddenly burst into extremely tiny pieces which burned away.

"We can finally go back." The first man muttered in an excited voice as he took out his earring while the second man also took out an earring.

They threw both of them on the ground at the same time as a formation surrounded them. 

'This is the moment I guess.' Kai suddenly thought as he teleported right beside the duo while being inside the formation;'s range.

[ I am also coming you know. ] He heard Laofen's voice inside his head as he turned back to see her standing behind him with a resolute face.

And with that, all four of them vanished.
