Chapter 83: Late Talks (1)

Four months soon passed by in a blink of an eye in the dimension, the two of us tend to sleep inside a beautiful tree house every night; the entire place felt cold, but not cold enough to freeze us, it was more of a perfect cold temperature.

“Aren’t the skies beautiful here?” Mom poked my cheeks as we looked out at a window from inside the treehouse.

The skies only had one moon, which was normal, but there were an infinite amount of stars floating everywhere, it felt like stars were popping up each and every passing moment which was magnificent and at the same time, wondrous.

“Mhm…” I said while looking at a window that appeared in front of me, the window showed a live feed of Mana and Flora walking around the town with Mana having a little exhausted expression on her face. Leisha was following behind her, also carrying the same sleepless expression.

In the Solis world, it has only been a few weeks since then while over here, four months had passed by, and over that four months, I had learned a bit too much and had improved my skills to a higher extent that I could most likely kill a wyvern by only throwing a rock.

“You really loved the three of them, fufufufu,” Mom suddenly giggled as she looked at the window with a bright smile on her face. Her smile could be explained by the fact that she was looking at her own daughters-in-law and granddaughter, it has been her long-time wish to have one which is why she could be seen smiling a lot when looking at the feed.

“Of course, who doesn’t miss the people they love?” I responded before she giggled once more as she asked with a teasing voice.

“Then, do you miss your dear mother?”

“Is that even a question that I need to answer?” I replied before her giggle grew louder as she hugged me tight, patting my hair as she looked at the skies with a beautiful smile before I looked at her with a serious expression, asking: “Mom… do you think you can leave this place?”

All of a sudden, she stopped moving as she laughed a bit before smiling, “Why do you think I can’t leave this place… it is only a matter of time until the seals on this place degrade enough that the powers of both Kaori and you in two to ten years from now are able to remove it!”

“Ten years, huh… isn’t that too long?” I said before she shook her head.

“Your mom is already an immortal in this universe, the dimension had changed my entire race just to seal me in this place for as long as it can… no matter how old I become, I will look the same and be the same for almost eternity…” she said.

“Mhm, you may be immortal, but the rest of us won’t be…” I rebuked before she pinched my cheeks as she replied back.

“Who said so? The Great Spirit the three of you are looking after is already granting the three of you a lifespan longer than any human, that is the curse and also the blessing of being the parent to a Great Spirit…”

I felt a bit surprised, but the surprise only lasted a short while after I remembered the instability issues the Great Spirits tend to have on their emotions; the parents act as a seal or a limiter to prevent their emotions from going wild and if both parents were to die then the limiter would definitely be turned off… and the most common death would definitely be age… of course the lifespan of the parents would be lengthened.

“To be realistic, having a long lifespan makes you lose a lot of emotions… everything simply feels bland, to be exact, it really feels like history repeats itself over and over again but with different main characters… it’s basically an endless cycle of the same thing,” she continued while looking at the moon as she smiled wryly.

“I have seen everything happen again and again while in this dimension; kingdoms rising then falling, continents splitting apart and wars raging all around the world… I have seen all of them, it’s almost like a normal occurrence to me…” she said before standing up while looking at me, “That’s why I feel nothing at all when people die because it’s merely a cycle of the world…”

“You sound like some kind of villain right now, Mom!” I said before she giggled, walking towards a table before taking a wine cup and a jar filled with wine, pouring the wine onto the cup as she took a sip on it after.

“Haha! I might be a villain, who knows!” she replied before sitting down on the bed as a tear fell from her eye, “Well… I won’t deny that considering that Elisa had died for me… it really feels like I am the villain of a story.”

“That reminds me… I heard the Goddess saying that souls will disintegrate once you die, what happened to her soul?” I asked before she smiled.

“Elisa’s soul is preserved in this world, she could be watching the two of us right this moment or could be floating around but before I activated the dimension sealing skill, I also sent a message towards the Goddess to preserve Elisa’s soul in exchange for the time I would spend in this dimension to maintain the seal against her twin,” she responded.

“After all, the Goddess wouldn’t do something that doesn’t benefit her… right, Miu?” Mom suddenly looked towards the ladder area before a white-haired lady came to sight, leaning on the wall as she smiled.

The lady was none other than the Goddess of White Lilies or the so-called Goddess of Yuri, the person who sent me to this world for her weird desires and also the person who I might be thankful for, after all, she allowed me to meet the people I loved.

“Tada! You found me again, my cute little Yomi!” she said while running towards Mom as she pinched her cheeks before she was slapped to bed, pouting.

“You should stop with those stupid tricks of yours if you do not want to be slapped ten more times today…” Mom looked at her and said before the Goddess pouted even more as she sounded a ‘hmph’ like those tsunderes in animes, “And so, what is your purpose for coming here?”

“Heh! Nothing at all, I had a feeling that you were going to call my name and so I came here!” she said while jumping up and down on the bed as Mom heaved a sigh before laying her head down on the bed as she looked at the Goddess like she was looking at a child.

“While you are here, tell me why you called my daughter to this world?” Mom suddenly asked causing the atmosphere to turn awkward as the Goddess froze in place before looking at me with a serious expression.

“Are you sure you want to know?” she asked in a super super very very very very serious expression, causing me to sweat a bit as Mom nodded before the Goddess asked another time, “Are you really sure you want to know?”

Mom felt a bit annoyed as the two of them entered a loop before she suddenly stood up from the bed and punched the Goddess on the face, flinging her to the wall as the Goddess sat there with a heavy pout on her face.

“Fine! I will tell you…” she said before standing up as she looked at me, the atmosphere inside the room turned super serious as her lips separated from one another before she said, “The reason why I invited your dearest daughter here is because…”

“I ran out of yuri stories…”
