A sword appeared in the room with the parents and Zeus. The glare of hatred from the sword seemed to shake the room slightly enough to cause tensions to rise higher.
"Let us not get to hasty here. Calm down and let us talk like professionals." Zeus spoke.
The sword calmed down. It's glare was still extremely hard to look away from.
"Now, what conditions did you first state?" Zeus asked.
"Their ancestors found me. There was a cave filled to the brim with treasures, pills, and a scroll. I was the scroll they took. However, due to the the sword becoming depressed. The sword stabbed the male person. The female opened me as the scroll to see if there was a way to save the man.
The only thing she was, 'Sign at the bottom.' She looked desperately to find the bottom. She just randomly signed without taking the seriousness of it into consideration. Without making sure where she signed was correct, her mind only got filled with half truth about the scroll.
She managed to save the man. During her attempt, she managed to cross the boundary of too much information. Her mistake there caused the Li Family to be forced to stay here in the Fourth Realm." The sword explained.
The parents were glad that it was nothing truly horrible that caused them to be locked into the Fourth Realm.
Zeus found it funny that it sounded like a stories from what the women have told Lilith during bedtime talks.
"What if we change the instead of full family a member who gets married first? Or what if you bless the person to stay with multiple children and one of them has to stay? Is there a way to make that happen or will you just float there if I decide to punish the family?" Zeus asked.
"Give me some time to form a contract with the new updates. However, I will only do this twice while I will give you three. Be wary of what you want in the contract." The sword disappeared.
The parents sighed in relief. Zeus was already planning the steps to get the contract signed.
"We have no time to waste. Lead me to the study or wherever you mainly do your final checks of the day." Zeus commanded them.
Inside the room
Zeus took the table's chair and began to write down the contents of what they wanted and would give in return.
"We want at least one member to be able to leave the Fourth Realm. At least one child will remain in the Fourth Realm. No more fighting over the head of the family. The head will be the one blessed by you until the next generation is ready to take over the family." The Li Family decided on this.
"I will add to it that the one who is blessed will have multiple children from whom the blessor will have to choose from. It will not be by the amount of money they earned during their trials. Reputation will be the first factor, followed by whatever the blessor deems is worthy enough to allow that child to become the head of the family.
Once the next head has children, the rest of the family is free to go throughout the Realms. Of course, the first choice will be between family members and the blessor. So that no disagreements happen." Zeus finished.
The trio finished their contract and rested until the morning. The sword appeared and had already seen their contract. It had to think that this was a slightly inbalanced deal. The contract would give the Li Family more freedom in the future generations.
"This contract of ours is to help our family grow in the Realms. Of course, we plan to keep the Head Family here in the Fourth Realm while branches of the Head Family are throughout the Realms." Li Jing spoke.
The sword rethought about the contract through their eyes. Not only would this allow them to branch out and bring more treasures under its control but also the experience of going through the Realms even has a treasure would be remarkable.
"I would be fine with this as long as I can go through the Li Family's branches and see how they are faring in the Realms." The sword spoke.
"Could you not already do it with the contract? Or is it because of the Stairway that this could become a problem?" Zeus asked.
"The problem lies with the Stairway without reason to move between Realms and have proper identity. I could be seen as a contract breaker." The sword spoke.
"Alright. We will include this thin, as long as the Head of the Family is safe and not in any kind of dispute, rather it be verbal, physical, or affecting his or her Soul, you can visit the Realms where the Li Family resides. If any treasures are found within the branch families. The branch families cannot use that treasure to affect the Head Family otherwise the blessor has the right to show the contract to the treasures and/or branch families." Zeus finished.
The parents and the sword went to the study to write out two copies of the contract. One for the Head of the Family, the other for the sword. Zeus went and got Li Hua and made sure it was okay to take her to Eighth Realm where her future male is currently residing.
Getting approval from the sword because it did not want her as the Head of the Family. The duo appeared in the Demon Realm. Li Hua was shocked to see the demons living in Lilith's mansion actually training their bodies to the max.
"We must hurry Li Hua." Zeus spoke.
"Just a little while longer here please." She pleaded with puppy dog eyes.
"Fine we leave in an hour. Rather you are done or not." Zeus finished.
She found the maids cleaning habits extraordinary, the training superb, and the feeling of home was building up in her heart. She had lost track of time and found herself in the middle of a Temple where Rex was waiting for her.
