On the other hand, El is confused by this unexpected situation.
Seriously, Misaka told El that the figure who had just helped Yasuwaki was an old man named Zeus, one of the senior members of Kadekeus.
Kadekeus itself is one of the largest organizations in the Reincarnation Room containing gods from various worlds, most of which have the same name as in Earth Mythology.
Feeling a little worried for El's safety, Misaka handed her a ribbon.
A pink and very cute feminine ribbon, but it actually contained compressed Haoshoku Haki, which would be released in tremendous force if the knot was pulled.
El accepted the ribbon without saying much, realizing Misaka's good intentions. After that, El immediately returned to his home in the Reincarnation Room, because there were still many things she needed to do.
After traveling for a while, El finally arrived at the doorstep of his house in the Reincarnation Room.
Without wasting any time, he immediately opened the door and entered.
In the living room, his eyes were immediately drawn to the pile of glittering items he obtained from the Auction House. Without hesitation, El immediately put everything away.
However, now was not the time to craft new equipment, upgrade skills, use Ability Crystals, distribute Attribute Points, or even utilize Beads of Ascension.
All of that he would do later, after preparing himself thoroughly.
Although earlier in the Trading Area El had faced problems with the appearance of an existence hostile to him, he did not want to rush into action at this time.
Not out of arrogance, but rather because he had worked out some steps ahead to deal with them in the future.
El let out a long sigh. "Why does it feel like I am a trouble magnet like Xiao Yan? I seem to have caught the bug. Ugh... It must be because I got too close to Xiao Yan."
Usually, after saying that, Yuri would immediately mock her. But this time, no sound of ridicule appeared.
Not wanting to worry about it too much, because he knew that sooner or later the answer would be revealed, El immediately gave orders to the Reincarnation Room. He wanted to return to his home world.

Inside the magnificent villa that was now dark and silent, as if it had been abandoned for a long time, El walked through every room, searching for Kirai's whereabouts.
"Strange... Why can't I smell Kirai's scent? Where did that girl go?" he muttered while standing in the living room.
Suddenly, Yuri's figure emerged from her body. However, something was wrong, her condition looked very bad.
His tiny spiritual body was almost crushed, floating staggeringly, almost falling.
Seeing that, El immediately moved, catching him swiftly.
Staring at Yuri who was now in the palm of his hand, El frowned. "Ma... Master, what's going on? Why do you look so unnatural?"
Yuri smiled slightly, her voice weak yet warm. "... It's because the soul fragment your Master previously left behind has melded into you."
El frowned, not fully understanding. "What do you mean?"
Yuri then explained about the Samsara Mantra, his soul fragments, and the existence of Sasuke and Tanjiro who had been residing in his subconscious.
Upon hearing that explanation, slowly, tears fell from El's eyes, something that almost never happened. Even in the world of Battle Through the Heavens, he had only cried once, and that was from enjoying Yun Yun's horrible cooking.
But this time was different.
El was not crying because of the loss of Sasuke and Tanjiro's fragments, but because Yuri, the figure who had always been with him, now had to leave.
When Yuri expressed her wish for El to no longer seek him out and cut off his connection with his home world, his heart gripped with an inexplicable pain.
To ensure El no longer had any connection to this world, Yuri was even forced to erase Kirai's memories of him, as well as all traces related to him.
This was not without reason.
Sooner or later, the Frost Flower Sect would definitely hunt him down.
All this was because El was a Beyonder, an existence that in the eyes of many was a World Plunderer.
An existence that is always destroying other worlds and Timelines, for the sake of one goal, obtaining the World Core.
The World Core is the fundamental essence of a world, containing the life energy, laws, and continued existence of that world.
For the Beyonder, the World Core is an invaluable resource, because:
The main fuel for the Reincarnation Room's continued existence.
Drastically increases power, whether in the form of energy, understanding of laws, or increasing the level of authority faster through the exchange into Points and Attribute Points.
Stabilize existence, especially for those from outside that world.
Controlling or even creating new worlds, depending on the level of understanding and compatibility.
However, seizing the World Core is not an act without consequences.
Taking the World Core means destroying the balance of nature, causing disaster or destruction to that world.
Many powerful entities, such as Gods, World Rulers, or large organizations, will definitely protect the World Core from looters like the Beyonder.
With El's status as a Beyonder, sooner or later he would be seen as a threat by large organizations, especially the Frozen Flower Sect which had strict rules in maintaining the balance of their world.
Hearing that explanation from beginning to end, El finally understood the reason behind Yuri's change in attitude after returning to the Reincarnation Room.
Before completely disappearing, Yuri took advantage of El's negligence to kiss his lips, a typical action that always annoyed him.
Previously, Yuri's kisses always failed because El was never caught off guard. However, now Yuri succeeded and apparently the kiss was more than just a flirtation.
At the same time, Yuri leaves all his knowledge in El, something that can be accessed at any time and becomes his last legacy.
Not only that, Yuri at the moment of disappearance also gave his only student some final words.
"Disciple, enjoy your new life and oh, yes... As a gift of healing, this Master left a small gift in the drawer in your room."
"Goodbye disciple, don't drown in sadness. When you gaze at Lily's flowers, think of it as you gazing at me."
El was silent for a moment, feeling the warmth and the voice message slowly fading away.
However, seeing how Yuri remained unchanged until the end, El could only smile slightly, a smile that held a deep sadness.
After that, El walked into the room and opened the drawer Yuri had referred to, the place where the parting gift had been prepared as a sign of healing and farewell.
Inside, there was a folding fan with a beautiful lily motif. El lifted it slowly, brought it close to his face, and inhaled the faintly familiar scent. "...There is the scent of Master here," he murmured softly.
Without hesitation, El then made up his mind, he would leave his home world and never return.
***
Inside the dimly lit apartment room, El sat on a bed with white sheets, surrounded by the warmth of his two beloved daughters, Sawa and Aoi.
The atmosphere in the room felt intimate, but also unusual.
El's shirt was slightly open, revealing his skin that glowed with incredible vitality, a testament to his focus on the VIT attribute and the quantity of Dou Qi he had cultivated.
From behind, Sawa pressed her lips against El's right neck. Her small fangs pierced the skin gently, channeling a sharp sensation that was soon followed by a quiet, but unbroken suction of blood.
At the same time, Aoi who was in front bit down on El's left shoulder, her tiny fangs also piercing the vein with natural precision, as if their instincts guided every movement.
The room was filled with the subtle sounds, slow suction, thirsty gulps, and thin breaths of the two little girls drowning in the warmth of El's blood.
A mixed sensation of cold and warmth coursed through his body, creating a unique contrast between tenderness and the insatiable passion that flowed in their every sip.
Upon arriving in the Black Bullet World and being reunited with his daughters, Sawa and Aoi, El was immediately greeted with hungry stares.
Their eyes flashed with a feral gleam, mouths slightly open, drooling like long-starved beasts.
Without warning, they lunged at his Papa.
El just sighed, letting them bite him without a fight. Their tiny fangs pierced his skin easily, sucking his blood greedily.
