I can feel my body refreshed when I open my eyes, but my mind is tired. I need to concentrate to ensure that large amounts of natural energy do not go wild, or the others will go mad or become stone.
I meditated for two days straight, and making sure the others do not die is taxing for my mental health.
However, my effort has positively affected my body and the planet itself. That amount of natural energy makes my body stronger. I have already reached an Ultimate Class on physical strength alone.
Combine it with my other power… It gets me to a divine realm. I think I can fight Susanoo to a standstill if the two of us go all out. He will still defeat me, but that is because of his experience in combat. With enough time and training, I can defeat him as long as he stays the same.
As for the positive effect on the planet… The planet is now healthier. The pollution in the air has slowly disappeared, and there is no pollution in Japan. Japan became the cleanest country in the world. However, that is not the only thing.
The leyline also starts to get better. That means monsters will slowly disappear, but will never disappear completely. The reason? The Underworld. That place is the breeding ground of tainted energy for the world.
The culprit is not the devil or any race that stays in that place. The underworld is the exhaust port of the planet. The waste the planet creates will go there. In the past, some races took care of the waste and changed it into something useful, but when the Gods first appeared and tried to take over the underworld, those races went extinct.
Because of my stronger connection with the planet, I can feel the planet planning to create more of those races because it now has enough power.
I don't know what will happen in the underworld when those races appear. I can only wish the people that live there good luck because I can feel the planet determined to make sure the underworld is taken care of.
Anyway, the last thing the planet gets from our connection is the Anti-Foreigner defence mechanism. The planet looks at my memory and immediately works on making a proper anti-Foreigner weapon against the Gods from ExE.
It looks like the Trihexa is the planet weapon alongside the Great Red and Ophis. However, with Ophis and Trihexa compromise, they need to be replaced. I don't know how the planet will take care of them, but I hope it will not cause massive destruction that costs many lives.
I blink for a second when I feel a warm feeling wash over my body. That is coming from the planet. It tells me not to worry. The planet hates humans and the races staying on its body, but it will not kill them.
I release a sigh and nod my head. That is good.
At least, the planet will not go on hating boners against humans like the one in the Nasuverse. Don't get me wrong, I can feel the anger and hate from the planet, but it is not only on the humans. It is angry at the Gods who do not do anything against the suffering it is feeling and against other races who also taint the world with their experiment and do not take care of their magic-based waste.
However, unlike the planet from the Nasuverse, this Gaia does not go killboner on the people that taint it. Gaia in the Nasuverse is very trigger-happy and happily kills any humans it can. However, Alaya prevents Gaia from killing all humans because Alaya is the will of humanity to grow.
Zelretch once told me that he wants me to heal the planet enough for the Will of the Planet, Gaia, to change its mind. Instead of someone who wants to get rid of all the humans, he wants me to change the planet's mind to let humans grow enough to reach for the stars.
It looks like the Main Timeline of Zelretch's timeline is going to the Note Timeline, where the planet is dead, and in its final moment, the planet creates a race to kill all humans who stay on its corpse.
However, to change the planet's mind, I need to restore nature and make sure the planet lasts for thousands of years. At the moment, it has enough to heal itself slowly, but the amount of things humanity does to the planet outweighs its ability to heal.
Now… the only problem is to see if Earth is willing to let me go and heal its counterpart in another world.
I blink a little as another warm energy courses through my body as a rush of acknowledgement from the planet.
The planet agrees with my plan as long as I return every one hundred years. Yeah. I don't think I will go for that long. Maybe when I know how to do what Zelretch does, I will stay in another world for a long time.
I shake my head and leave my bed. I stretch a little and move my body around. I can feel the new power-up from all those meditations and controlling Senjutsu. Heck, the effect of doing that still appears on my body.
I look down and see white scales appear on my body. Because of me becoming an Ether Liner, I can control my Sage Mode. However, with that amount of natural energy that comes inside my body, I cannot fully hold back from entering Sage Mode.
At least, it does not have anything noticeable. All the scales are behind my clothes, and I manage to hold back from forming claws.
I shake my head and walk to the door. When I open the door, there is no one there. It is unusual because two or three servants usually wait outside my room all day when I am inside.
However, I understand the reason why they are not here. It looks like Yasaka tells them to walk away from my room.
I walk through the corridor and smile a little when I finally notice Yasaka's life signature. I walk toward her to the garden, and my smile gets bigger when I see Asia and Kunou with her.
When they see me coming, Kunou and Asia run toward me with bright smiles on their faces.
"Daddy!"
"Ryan!"
I laugh and catch them.
