The Inheritance Of The Supreme Immortals

Out of nowhere, without any warning, everything suddenly came to a halt.

Time, the wind, and every living being froze in place, as though the very fabric of time had come to an abrupt stop.

Everyone except Sam and his daughters from the future stood motionless, including Sam's wives and the countesses, who appeared as if they had been transformed into statues.

Sensing the shift in the atmosphere, Sam sighed and glanced at Amaya, Leona, Akio, and Aria, who had appeared in response to the change.

"It looks like it's time for you to go home," he said quietly.

In the center of the hall, a distortion tore through space, creating a small rift just large enough for a person to pass through.

From the rift, a figure stepped through with graceful ease.

She was a mature woman with long blue hair streaked with white accents.

One of her eyes gleamed with a golden hue, while the other shone a brilliant blue, both glowing with an ethereal light.

The moment the daughters saw their mother appear, they rolled their eyes in unison, wearing the same tired expression.

Sam couldn't help but smile as he observed their reaction.

The mature woman glanced at Sam and smiled warmly. "Lorraine was right. They really did travel through time to come see you."

"Like mother, like daughters, I suppose," Sam replied, returning her smile.

The woman was unmistakably Mina Megumi from the future, her appearance as regal and commanding as ever.

"I doubt it's that simple," Mina responded with a sigh.

"Just as you would do anything for your wives, they would do anything for their father. To be honest, it's quite troublesome that their attention is focused solely on you." She sounded exhausted, her tone betraying the weariness of a mother who had been dealing with mischievous daughters—daughters who, despite being immortals like herself, still managed to overwhelm her.

"They didn't cause any trouble, did they?" she asked, a hint of concern in her voice.

"No, they behaved themselves, though they certainly scared a few gods who managed to sense their presence," Sam replied, smiling at his daughters with a bittersweet expression.

He knew this was the right thing to do—they had to return to their own time.

Yet, despite knowing this, the thought of parting with them weighed heavily on him.

Up until now, Sam had convinced himself that their presence here wouldn't cause any problems.

But as soon as the future Mina appeared, bringing with her the essence of time, Sam could sense the timeline fracturing, branching in ways that spelled danger.

It was not a good sign.

"You can feel it, can't you?" Mina asked, her expression tinged with worry.

She understood how difficult this moment was for Sam.

He had only spent a short time with his daughters from the future, yet the thought of sending them back clearly pained him.

"Don't doubt yourself. It shouldn't have been an issue for them to travel through time, especially with your future self protecting the rivers of time," Mina explained.

"But right now, things are different. Both your future self and the rest of us have been dealing with threats aimed at undoing your rise to power throughout different points in time."

Her expression hardened as she spoke, her eyes turning as cold as ice. "We've been so preoccupied with this that we failed to notice the branching disturbances being created in the rivers of time."

"Enemies traveling through time to erase me, huh?" A dangerous golden aura began to seep from Sam. "Let them come."

Sam wanted to curse his enemies more but, noticing his future daughters listening intently, he restrained himself.

"You don't need to trouble yourself with this," Mina continued calmly.

"Leave it to us and your future self. We'll handle it soon enough." She then glanced at Amaya, Leona, Aria, and Akio, who all looked like they had been caught doing something mischievous.

"Don't be sad," Mina said gently, smiling at her daughters.

"It's not like you'll never see him again. They are your daughters, your treasures. They will always be with you." She glanced at them as they clung to Sam, hugging him tightly as they said their goodbyes.

"Be obedient and listen to your mothers, alright?" Sam said, giving each of them a small kiss on the forehead.

"We will," they nodded earnestly, their heads bobbing like chickens.

Sam turned to Amaya and Leona. "You two are a lot like your mothers. Just like them, always look out for your sisters."

His eyes then moved to Akio. "My little lightning bolt... your mother would have loved to meet you."

"But I only came to meet Daddy," Akio replied innocently, causing Sam to chuckle inwardly.

It seemed his future daughters were far more attached to him than to their mothers.

After patting her for a few moments, his eyes shifted to Aria, who was the spitting image of his Aunt Ava. "My beloved daughter... as one of the elder siblings, it's your duty to protect your sisters."

"I will, Father," Aria replied with a sweet smile, earning a forehead kiss and a pat from him.

Sam watched with a heavy heart as they followed Future Mina toward the space-time rift.

"Oh, I almost forgot," Mina said, stopping just before they vanished. She turned to glance at Sam's past self.

"Take care of yourself," her expression softened.

"You always think about everything—every possible threat to your family and how to keep them safe and secure. You do everything you can to protect the universe as its guardian, but you never think about yourself. You never take care of your own well-being." Her voice became gentle.

"Even if you are a supreme being whose purpose is to protect everything, you are still a person. It wouldn't hurt to take a day off or spend time with your family." She waved her palm before disappearing into the rift with their future daughters.

"Remember, without you, there is no family."

Sam sighed as he watched their figures disappear along with the space-time rift, and soon the flow of time returned to its normal pace.

"Huh? Where did they go?" Amelia asked, glancing around in confusion.

From her perspective, she had just been chatting with her future daughters, trying to coax them into revealing secrets about the future.

Then, in the blink of an eye, they were gone.

"They had to go back home," Sam said softly, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"But it hasn't even been a full day..." Amelia started, before pausing. "I see. I understand." She smiled gently, nodding her head, but Sam could tell there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

"It's okay," he said, his voice warm and comforting.

"It's not like we'll never see them again. Soon enough, they'll be born, and we'll watch them grow up. We'll teach them about the universe, guide them in cultivation. We'll see them again... our daughters."

His words brought solace to the others.

The countesses, his wives, and even his daughter Kate, who had been enjoying a chat with her future younger sister, all shared a similar expression.

Though there was a hint of sadness, it was fleeting.

They knew that in time, they would meet their daughters again.

Sam's gaze drifted to the three countesses.

From his interactions with his future daughters, he already knew that these women would eventually become his wives.

Sam's mind raced, sifting through hundreds of different scenarios in an instant.

His thoughts halted on one particular fear—his enemies traveling through different points in the rivers of time, trying to prevent his ascension.

The moment that realization struck, his thoughts of his daughters vanished, replaced by a seething fury.

The mere idea that time-traveling enemies could stop him from fulfilling his destiny, thereby erasing the chance for his daughters to ever be born, enraged him to his core.

In a flash, Sam disappeared from where he stood and reappeared in his personal quarters within Twilight Castle.

The Vampire King, his Queen, and Princess Kate each had their own chambers, located beside one another among the many rooms in the castle.

Yet, the Queen and Princess often chose to spend their time in the King's bedroom.

"Shisu?" Sam called out.

<You summoned me, Master>

"Give me the reports," Sam commanded.
