"Oh my lord, it is you," the old woman started to get teary-eyed as she looked at the small piece of stone.

"Who… are you?" Ning asked the woman.

​​

"Oh my apologies, lord Inikaka. This lowly one is a humble servant of yours called Hasini," the old woman said.

"And how did you know I was your lord and that I would be here?" Ning asked.

"Oh, we've known it for a long time lord Inikaka. Ever since you sent that food for us lowly people, we have been tending to your shrine every day to get your blessings. We are ever so grateful to you for sending us meat and fruits," the old woman said.

'Shrine?' Ning was surprised. He then looked around the place he was in and realized that they had mistaken the home he built for his human body as a holy shrine. 'This is annoying,' he thought.

"Alright. Take me to the village. I want to meet Hyesi," he said.

"Yes, My lord," The old woman took him in her hands and started running faster than most monsters he had seen on the other island.

'Holy… what the… are body cultivators supposed to be this fast?' he was surprised. Within a few minutes, the old woman reached the village.

"Chief, Everyone, Look who returned to us?" the old woman shouted as soon as she returned to the village.

"Why are you shouting, Old Hasini?" someone asked.

"Hey, Hey, do you still think you are a young woman to be running like that at an age like this?" an old man asked.

"Shut up, Delika," Hasini scolded the old man who had just spoken.

The chief of the village walked out of the stone house he was in and asked, "What are you shouting for Senior Hasini? Who has returned?" he asked.

"Look!," the old woman propped up the stone in her hand high up above her head and let everyone see it.

"I thought you were going to check the shrine for some more blessings. Is that some food? That just looks like a normal stone to me?" the chief asked.

"Of course, it's not some food. It's not just a normal stone either," said Hasini. She then took a deep breath before shouting, "Our Lord and savior, Inikaka has returned as the blessing himself."

'Oh god, this feels so awkward. Almost feels like I'm **mba, put up for everyone in the village to see,' Ning thought.

"What? Lord Inikaka?" The chief shouted.

"Lord Inikaka?" another one shouted.

"No, way. Lord," another person spoke.

Before Ning knew it, the entire villagers were down on their knees with their heads on the ground, bowing to him.

'Please don't. I'm cringing already,' Ning started shouting on the inside. A few moments passed but the Klavian people didn't seem to be taking their heads off the ground at all.

"Uhh… Guys, You can stand up now," Ning finally spoke.

"INIKAKA!!" everyone suddenly shouted.

That night, the whole tribespeople had a party. 2 massive monster corpses were put on the fire as food, while both the young and the adults danced to the music of the elderly's.

Hyesi had already returned back home and Ning had decided to change his body into his Necklace for now.

"You finally returned to us Inikaka," Hyesi said.

"I was always going to. Didn't I tell you to look at that place from time to time for me?" he asked.

"Yes, Inikaka, but… after you sent the food, I thought you might have chosen to just send us food and abandon the fight with Fufuliki instead," Hyesi said.

"Of course not. Speaking of sending food, however, How did they come to know about me?" he asked.

"Oh, that Inikaka. At first, when you sent us the food, I took them back to the village and gave them to everyone, saying they were washed up on the beach. But after a couple of days of that happening, they started to get suspicious."

"After that, you sent a bird corpse. It was then that I learned that I couldn't hide anything else and decided to spill everything. Since then, someone has been going to the place I built to get our blessings every day."

"I hope you are not angry at your child for making a mistake, Lord Inikaka," Hyesi said.

"Sigh, no I'm not," Ning said. He didn't think such a development would occur, and as such, he now had to think of something.

'Actually…' he thought, 'this seems like the perfect time.'

"Hyesi, bring me to the center of the group," he asked Hyesi.

Yes, Lord Inikaka," Hyesi said and walked to the middle of the music and dancing. Seeing Hyesi come up to them, they didn't do anything at first, but when they remembered that Inikaka was inside Hyesi's necklace, the entire village immediately went silent.

The only noise out there was the crackling of fire and the distant sound of the ocean.

"Everyone, I have something to say to you guys," Ning spoke with a loud voice.

"What is it Lord Inikaka? Can we help you?" the Chief asked immediately.

"No, it's something else. I came down here to look around the world, and see what it was like. I was always distant and could barely see any of you, so I decided to take a closer look. As such, I incarnated into this ethereal form that required other bodies to stay in," Ning said.

"However, I have decided now that I want to have my own body to move around. I want to see what a human feels like and see if you are really as weak as I think you are. Since this is going to be my new body, It's going to be extremely weak. I hope you guys can help me stay strong and protect me from everything else."

He then said, "In return, I can help you be stronger, give you food, and more than anything, Kill the damned demon called Fufuliki who has been plaguing your life."
