Chapter 294: Talking with the Parents

Chapter 294: Talking with the Parents

[Luna POV]

A few days later, we had finished up just about everything we wanted to do in the dwarven country. Finding orichalcum was the hardest part of it since we had to jump through several hoops to purchase any while finding a volcano was the easiest part. Right now, we were standing on the edge of a cliff overlooking the inner part of said volcano. I was overlooking the lava that was about a kilometer down from where we were standing and holding the ring that I enchanted to hide my tails. Next to me, Soleil was dragon shouting rocks and other things off the side of the volcano and into the distance. Once she ran out of things to launch, she turned to me with a satisfied expression on her face.

That was way more fun than I expected it to be. I just hope I didnt hit anyone with that stuff. (Soleil)

Are you done with whatever you were doing, Luna? (Velvet)

Just about. (Luna)

I looked into the volcanos caldera one more time before tossing the ring inside. I watched the ring fall until I could no longer see it, though I did hear it bounce off some rocks a few times before feeling the enchantment get fully destroyed.

Im done now. (Luna)

What was even the point of that? (Skadi)

Ill show you guys later, for now, lets get out of here. (Luna)

Where are we going nya? (Mio)

Back to the shrine for a few days, I have some things I need to talk to my parents about. After that, were headed back to the Demon Empire and from there, to visit the merfolk. (Luna)

Luna, can you send me to Savanna? I also want to talk with my mother. (Velvet)

Send me with her please. (Soleil)

Then off you two go, you know what to do when you are ready to be picked up. (Luna)

Im taking Skadi to the Celestia Kingdom. (Ophidia)

Have fun then. (Luna)

Ophidia and Skadi teleported away and I teleported Velvet and Soleil to Velvets home before I turned to Mio.

And then there were two. (Luna)

Indeed nya. (Mio)

I placed my hand on Mios shoulder and we teleported back to the shrine.

{Oh, hello Fenrir. Come to take Mio away for a bit?}

Yes. Seeing as Luna is going to be taking some alone time to talk with her parents, I feel like this is a perfect time for me and Mio to spend some time together. Otherwise she would just be sitting around doing nothing for a few days. (Fenrir)

Have fun, Mio. (Luna)

I will nya. (Mio)

A glowing doorway then appeared in front of Mio which disappeared after she walked through it. Now, I was all alone. I walked in the direction of Moms office and once there, I walked in. As expected, she was sitting behind her desk though unexpectedly she was sipping some tea with no sign of paperwork to be seen.

Welcome home, Luna. Done in the dwarf country already? (Amagi)

Yeah. Only difference is that I didnt get my eighth tail yet. (Luna)

Broke the pattern? (Amagi)

Yeah. Not that there was much that I needed to fight there really. We did kill what could be considered a country of orcs, but other than that, not much happened. Though I did get a pet. You can meet her some other time. (Luna)

Sounds interesting. Where are the others? (Amagi)

Velvet and Soleil are visiting Velvets mom, Ophidia and Skadi are on a date in the Celestia Kingdom, and Mio is with Fenrir. Anyway, where is dad? (Luna)

They both went back to hugging me silently. I enjoyed the comfort that they provided and thought over everything that they said. When they both moved away from me a bit, they were both smiling at me.

Thanks. I needed this more than you both know. (Luna)

We are your parents, so feel free to come and talk with us about this stuff at any time. Even in the future, goddess or not, you are our daughter, now and always. (Deacon)

We might not be able to help with divine matters at that point, but if its life advice, then well be happy to help as much as we can. And sure, Tamamo might have even more or better advice than us, she wont be able to help with everything. (Amagi)

{Its true. I can give as much advice on divine matters and some limited life advice, but other than that, the most I can really do is be moral support and give as much comfort as I can. When it comes to matters of family, I cant do much since the most familial interactions Ive ever had come from Atmos and watching all of you while Luna got to this point.}

And thats completely fine. In fact, you can also come to us if you ever have questions. You are a part of the family after all. (Amagi)

Indeed. (Deacon)

{Thank you both. I will make absolutely sure that if I ever need help in matters like this, you two will be the first I ask.}

With all the heavy topics out of the way, we all started to chat about this and that. I talked about the things that happened since the last time we left the shrine. Dad was especially interested in the lizardman story.

No wonder my people couldnt find almost any trace of lizardmen in that area. You wiped out nearly all of them. (Deacon)

I mean, its kind of late to ask, but is this going to be a problem? (Luna)

Not really. Give them a year or two and theyll be back to an overabundance that needs to be quelled. (Deacon)

By the way, what level are you now? (Amagi)

Level 76. Though some good news, my level demerit is no longer as big, so Ill be leveling faster now. There still is a demerit, but Im no longer a largescale environmental threat, or at least not as big of one. (Luna)

Thats good. Make sure that, if possible, you come and see us before you get your ninth tail. (Amagi)

That was the plan if it can be helped. And if it cant, Ill get Ophidia to come and bring you two to wherever it is I start ascending. (Luna)

Mom nodded her head before she looked out the window.

Oh. I didnt realize its become this late. Shall we all have a late dinner before going to bed? (Amagi)

Lets do that. Its been too long since it was just the three, no, four of us. (Deacon)

I smiled and we all left the office.

Chaos Realm:

Atmos: This in one thing that us gods can't help with well. Sure, some of us have families, but we don't have the perspective that mortals or in this case, previous mortals have.

True.

Atmos: Well, I think Grey could have helped Luna with this though.

Order: He could have, but this is something that is better heard from her immediate family I think.

I agree with Order on this one. Through my own observations, things like this are always better heard from family than from a friend, even if said friend is practically family as well.

Atmos: I see. I'll keep that in mind in case I ever need to give advice like this.

Order: Payto, come hold Astraea.

Coming.

Atmos: I think I'm going to go visit Tamamo, I'll see you guys later.

Don't start yelling when you show up.

Atmos: I wasn't planning on it this time.
