Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Return
Sirin and Myself had stepped out of the portal I had created. My power has risen significantly over the time I spent in the Konkai Impact verse.
Just the fact I had two decades worth of time to accumulate and absorb Eridium along with being able to train and master my PhaseSpace-Time and PhaseCreate powers was more than enough.
In addition, I now had my own mobile fortress which I am now able to store within a Pocket Dimensional Space that isn't related to the System in anyway.
"So this is your world, Pandora…I must say it's…" Sirin said unsure on what she should say on if it would offend me or not.
"Lovely, miserable, people want to kill you every few seconds…speaking of which…"
I snapped my finger and the head of a nearby Psycho exploded, whom was hiding and waiting to ambush somebody that came by and when he saw us he was about to pounce.
"This is a shithole.."
"Language!" I chastised her as I went to smack her on the head but she made a spatial barrier around her head to avoid the hit."
"What?! I'm not a kid! I'm literally 32 years old and you're just 7 years older than me!"
"Fine but still, it isn't nice to speak of your daddy's home like that."
"First I won't call you that."
*Stab*
"Second it's true, your home is a literal shithole!"
*Stab*
"And third you're more like a Guardian or Brotherly figure for me for only 6 years of my life after you took me in. By then I became an adult of my own!"
*Stab*
"Can you stop that!" Sirin shouted as I stabbed her with the third dagger I had materialised using my PhaseCreate powers and stabbed her first in the heart, second in eye and third on her booba as punishment for my hurt feelings!
"That's irrelevant!"
"It isn't!" She yelled back as the daggers i stabbed her with had disintegrated under her power of Death to decay the molecules of said dagger and to regenerate her own body's matter to heal herself.
"Come on, the others are waiting." I said as I opened up another portal in front of us to pass through.
"Oi, this isnt over! Bastard! He always does this shit that Sadist!" Sirin complained the last part to herself as she chased after Raime.
**********
Upon exiting the portal the ones I both least expected and expected to do this sort of thing were aiming their guns at me before lowering them just as quickly.
"Raime you're back!" Surprisingly Brick was the one to have been the first to greet me.
"Yeah, finally good to be back. By the way how long was I gone after you all came here first?" I asked curious at if I had made a portal in Space-Time correctly.
"I'd say about a few hours, and then it's been 30 minutes since you first disappeared and we followed after you to that other world." Mordecai informed.
I was quite surprised but in a good way, that meant I had successfully made a somewhat decent portal that can traverse Realities and close the gap in Time I spend in another world to only a few hours compared to decades.
I see this as an absolute win!
"Hey Raime, the only reason I recognised you is because of the weapons you had on you and I told the others about it, especially your armour…but why are you hiding your face again when you already showed us?"
Lilith asked and I coughed nervously.
"Uhh about that…"
"What did you do?" Lilith asked accusingly.
"Hey! In my defence…iHadNoIdeaThisWouldHappen."
Lilith had an odd feeling and she quickly went over to him and pulled his helmet off as she used PhaseWalk to shift the helmet into another dimension and remove it with ease.
Once that was done everyone in the room looked at Raime with wide open jaws as his appearance has drastically changed.

He now had long flowing white hair, and his features were further enhanced, no one can claim to be perfection since that word is universal, but his current appearance was stars above anything this universe could produce.
Sirin had no reaction at all other than some red tinted cheeks but that went unnoticed by everyone.
Meanwhile, Angel who was watching couldn't hold back and she squealed like a little girl at how he looked. Just the thought that this man liked her was already enough to make the little Angel daydream.
As for Lilith, she wasn't any better, her face was red and even Raime and the others knew that Lilith liked him, but no one said anything as the time they spent together was still short to establish a relationship.
"Well…uh…Good look?" Mordecai said unsure if Raime should be complimented or pitied for his androgynous male face.
If Raime knew what he was thinking he would be raging that he still looked masculine.
"Yeah fuck you Mordy, this is what happens when I inject myself with multiple genes that can enhance my capabilities and powers to new heights."
"I don't care how you look, you're still Raime and that's all that matters, but I do gotta ask…who's she?" Brick said as he pointed his thumb behind him at Sirin herself.
"Ah, I forgot…she's Sirin, the same girl you met only a while ago…"
I informed them though I realised I shouldn't have said anything as they all looked between me and the not-so-little-girl.
"WHAT?!" Their voices overlapping with one another as I knew things would not calm down even when I told them the truth.
