Huo Yuhao and Toki sat on the edge of the dock, staring at the stormy ocean.
Toki opened her mouth and said, "My real name is Tokino. I'm the heiress of the Great Toki Family."
"In the Myriad Heaven Realm, only the Great Kukan Family and Great Tan Family bear the same power and responsibility as my family. We ruled and protected it from outside."
"But you know..."
"No matter how much we tried, there would 'always' be rotten eggs in the basket."
She looked up, "When we found the Tiny World in the corner of Sacred Gift Cosmos, my family hid it from other Royalties and sent three of our best Concept Fruit Gardeners here."
"It was a success. One gardener returned with an Ultimate-grade Blank Concept Fruit and helped my father raise his cultivation by a leap."
"He's currently the Patriarch and one of the strongest people in the Myriad Heaven Realm."
"Motivated by my father's great increase in cultivation, I and nine other talented members of the Great Toki Family entered the Tiny World."
"Ten?" Huo Yuhao was surprised by this knowledge. After all, Oceana didn't show him anything about this.
Toki nodded, "Yes, ten."
"However, seven of them died in the Gardener's scheme."
"The rest are me and two other elites from the main branch."
"One chose to reincarnate and seal his memory."
"One completely sacrificed her concept power and became the mortal of this world."
"And there is me, who leaped through space-time continuously, leaving Time Remnant so the Gardener couldn't attack me."
"It was a huge mistake, though." A bitter smile formed on Toki's beautiful face. "My 'real' self arrived in the future and experienced an intense soul shock, leading to her amnesia."
"She fully embraced herself as the Tiny World's native, married to a man called Kozuki Oden, and bore two children. Those children bore one of the strongest genes in this world."
"Their potential is only slightly worse than mine, but alas. They would only stay here for the rest of their lives like a frog on the bottom well."
"You're surprisingly accepting of your 'true' self's deed." Huo Yuhao couldn't help but question.
Toki sighed weakly, "When you get trapped in this timeline for many years, you don't have any choice but to accept your fate. I lost the count after 10,000 years."
"On top of that, I can't do anything to change my circumstances."
"I'm just a ghost in this passage of time."
"And it's all that gardener's fault. He was a spy from another high-ranked realm in the Sacred Path Cosmos and planned to use Tiny World as his bargaining chip to climb higher in status."
"Are you talking about the tall and lanky gardener?" Huo Yuhao asked again.
Toki's eyes widened before returning to normal, "It seems you know about him already."
"Yes, that's right."
"He's the gardener."
"His name is San Imu."
"San Imu..." Huo Yuhao mumbled to himself.
"If I'm not wrong, another gardener who stayed behind with him, no?"
Toki was surprised inside but still answered, "Yes."
"However, we killed her in retaliation."
"Her name is Sandra Nefertari."
"There is a connection between her and the Nefertari Royal Family, one of the World Government's founders."
"I used to think she originated from the same realm as Imu." She added with uncertainty. "However, I didn't think so anymore because she left Sacred Path Records everywhere."
"It seems she and Imu have a break."
She stared at Huo Yuhao and spoke softly, "I think there is a possibility Sandra Nefertaru got reincarnated."
"Even though such a technique is 'naturally' forbidden in Ostera Race, she was one of the best gardeners who learned about it thoroughly."
"She can't die that easily."
"Imu also knew this and had been putting pressure on the Nefertari Royal Family since the Void Century."
"He was afraid that Sandra would appear out of nowhere and escape from Tiny World, telling others about his deed."
Huo Yuhao rubbed his chin, "This is more complicated than I thought."
"Was Imu and Sandra stronger than you guys?"
Toki shook her head gently, "Technically speaking, they are just gardeners with lower cultivation than us... However, we didn't factor in the fact that they are using Tiny World's restriction, which caught us off guard."
"It was embarrassing, to be honest."
"We are like animals on a chopping block."
"As for now, Imu might be the strongest existence in the Tiny World."
"He has consumed more Blank Concept Fruit than anyone else in the Myriad Heaven Realm, gaining the title of King."
"Your race focused on the cultivation of Immortality. How many realms were there in your power system?" Huo Yuhao asked curiously.
Toki cleared her throat and answered, "Our system is a bit unorthodox as we possess unstable genetic codes. Our cultivation solely focuses on fixing that defect and slowly climbs to a higher realm."
"There are seven major realms and nine sub-realms."
"Lifeblood, Foundation Realm, Soul Realm, Golden Core Realm, Nascent Soul, World Step Realm, King Realm, and Saint Realm."
"There is another realm, the Immortal Realm, but it was a myth."
"Before this, I was at the peak of the World Step Realm."
"Even if I somehow recovered my power, Imu has reached King Realm and could pummel me to the ground."
Huo Yuhao asked Evo to analyze Myriad Heaven Realm's power system and compare it to Douluo Dalu's.
After a few seconds, he got his answer and smiled because people in the Saint Realm only amount to a Demi-God Realm.
Of course, this won't make Huo Yuhao underestimate Imu. The latter's knowledge of the mystical aspect might be more powerful than his.
According to Toki, Imu is very cunning and a great schemer.
He also won't hesitate to do things.
Having such qualities makes him a dangerous enemy.
Huo Yuhao is still curious about something, though.
"Do you know the origin of D and Celestial Dragons?"
Hearing this question, Toki was confused for a second.
She hesitated briefly and replied solemnly, "Those who bear the name and blood of D are prisoners of the Great War that our race caught."
"Most of them got cursed with Ostera Race's Blood Binding, which made their bloodline and physique resemble us. It will make them suffer from bad luck."
"The same applies to Celestial Dragons, but they are special."
"They are actually Traitors of the Ostera Race, but we can't kill them due to Tan Royalty's voted them out from execution. But I think it was because Tan Royalty is biologically related to them, giving them a leeway."
"Not to mention, they are a collateral branch family of Tan Royalty."
Huo Yuhao raised his brow, "Wait, doesn't that make other Royalty know your family had Tiny World?"
Toki giggled weakly, "Our race is very inefficient when it comes to punishing others."
"Because we are too kind toward our family."
"Of course, the matter of punishment is decided in three steps."
"The first one is the sentence, and Great Tan Family's representative controls this."
"The second one is how long the sentence will be applied. The Great Kukan Family's representative controls this.
Huo Yuhao found this bizarre, "So, I guessed your family is the one who conducted the punishment?"
"Yes. The Great Toki Family conducted all the punishment." Toki nodded with a somewhat proud tone.
"But as you can see, it's backfired."
"Even though the Celestial Dragons didn't pose much threat, their Ostera Race's bloodline served as a strong catalyst for Imu to do unspeakable things."
