Chapter 1724 What A Terrible Story
‘So, you’ve finally come, huh?’
Kentucky was taken aback as he heard that message. He could tell it was a Divine Sense message, but he couldn’t feel the Divine Sense, which showed that the other party’s cultivation was much higher than his. ‘Right, the Divine Sense bending skill!’
With that, Kentucky immediately activated Rean’s ability, and what he saw terrified him. As mentioned before, the stronger the Divine Sense, the more obvious it became once it touched Rean’s skill. The Divine Sense Kentucky was feeling with the Divine Sense bending skill was by far the strongest he had ever seen. Even the experts of the Jhiod Sect couldn’t hold a candle to it.
Unfortunately, Kentucky couldn’t endure it anymore and began to fall… or so he expected that would happen. However, some force seemed to catch his body midair and pull it in the island’s direction. Not only that, but the pressure that assaulted Kentucky’s body also disappeared at the same time. “Who are you?!”
The voice immediately replied, ‘You’ll see once you get here.’
Eventually, Kentucky was pulled into the floating island, which wasn’t affected by the pressure of the Realm of Gods’ barrier.
The island, other than the fact it was floating in the sky, didn’t have much difference from a normal one. Some trees here and there, rocks, things like that. However, there was an exception. At the very center, Kentucky could see what seemed to be a feather floating above the ground.
“A Minokawa’s feather?” Kentucky murmured. It didn’t matter how he looked at it. Other than its greater size, the feather was pretty much identical to his own.
‘You’re correct,’ the Divine Sense voice talked again. ‘Come closer. Let me take a look at you.’
Kentucky narrowed his eyes in response but approached the floating feather nonetheless. He could tell with Rean’s Divine Sense bending skill that the Divine Sense was still there. Not only that, the Divine Sense was coming from the feather itself. “A sentient feather? Is that even possible?”
The feather couldn’t help but laugh, saying, ‘Hahaha! Of course not! The feather is from my original body. It’s just that I imbued some of my own Divine Sense into it before leaving this place. I knew you would come here one day, so I thought it was better to leave some countermeasures.’
Kentucky was surprised to hear that. “Imbue Divine Sense? You can leave your own sentience behind through Divine Sense? That’s crazy! No, wait! You said you’ve been waiting for me? I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I’m most likely not the Minokawa you were waiting for. I came from the Mortal Realm.”
‘Of course, you did! After all, that’s where my wife and I sent our egg. If you weren’t from there, then you definitely wouldn’t be the right Minokawa. Besides, there’s absolutely no way I can’t feel the bloodline of my descendant. In fact, you should have been able to feel me as well. After all, there’s some remnant of my original body’s blood on the quill of this feather,’ the feather explained.
“Ah!” Now Kentucky was truly shocked. “So that’s why my bloodline seemed so excited. You and I are related. No, wait! Doesn’t that mean you’re my father?”
‘That’s pretty much the case,’ the feather confirmed Kentucky’s words. ‘Still, what has happened to you? What’s that feather crown on your head? It’s as if you had gone through some mutation or sorts.’
Kentucky shook his head in response. “Don’t you think you should be the one to answer my questions first? Let’s leave aside how you got access to the Mortal Realm or anything like that. Instead, let’s start with your reason for you and your wife abandoning me on Sunkan Planet. From what I heard, Minokawas were supposed to be very protective of their offspring. Does that sound familiar at all?”
The feather made a nodding motion… although it didn’t have a head or anything. ‘Sigh… I guess you’re right. We do owe you an explanation. To cut it short, that was your only chance to survive.’
“Survive?” Kentucky narrowed his eyes as he found it absurd. “Survive what? If not for the two idiots who found me, I might have been dead already.” Indeed, Kentucky still remembered the Sunkan Planet explosion, so he would have died there if the twins weren’t the ones who took him. Well, the planet also exploded because of their presence…
‘You don’t understand. It’s still a lot better than if you had stayed in the Realm of Gods. I had to go to great lengths to enter the Mortal Realm and leave you there. Not only that, I didn’t even have the time to choose a planet. I just picked the first populated planet I found and left you there before someone noticed what I tried to do.’
“And why exactly would anyone want to kill me? No, wait, did they want to kill you or me?” Kentucky asked back.
‘You,’ the feather replied. ‘That’s because you were conceived with a Regal Minokawa Bloodline.’
“Regal Minokawa Bloodline?” Kentucky’s eyes lit up after that. “I didn’t know I was some kind of prince.”
The feather’s Divine Sense almost dissipated from that remark. ‘Not that kind of regality, idiot!’
“Hahaha!” Kentucky nodded. “I’m joking, I’m joking. This Regal Minokawa Bloodline is probably some rank higher than normal Minokawas, I presume?”
‘Sigh…’ The feather couldn’t really breathe, though. ‘That’s correct.’
Kentucky couldn’t help but remember Rean and Roan’s words. “This seems very cliche, no? Let me guess. One of you must be a Regal Minokawa, while the other is a normal Minokawa. The Minokawas probably have a very strong sense of hierarchy, so the Regal Minokawas couldn’t accept the mixed blood of a normal Minokawa and a Regal Minokawa. Am I doing well so far?”
‘Where did you get that bullshit from? That’s no fun at all,’ the feather answered. ‘Also, you’re wrong. I’ve never mentioned you have a mixed bloodline either.’
“Eh?! Was I wrong?!” Kentucky’s confidence suffered a hit now. “Tch, and here I thought I was doing great. In any case… you now have my full attention.”
