Cain landed in his mansion in the heavens. "Finally home," He sighed, stretching.
"Is this where you're living now?" Alice stared behind his shoulder, "It looks like it," Sofia added.
"This place is oozing with divine magic," Ereshkigal growled, "How many gods dwell here? Or this is because of you alone?"
"Don't worry," Cain waved his hand, "I'm not that kind of monster, there are other gods here,"
"Goddesses," Gracie said, walking forward, "I only smell women around here," She grunted, staring back at him, "There are a ton of them,"
Bacchus sighed, "I ended up coming, but this is more than I expected,"
"Don't worry," Cain looked at them, "Nyar won't attack immediately, and you'll have enough time to prepare and settle down," He smiled, "For now, rest and take a bath, the maids will guide you through the mansion,"
"Mansion? I feel like this building spreads infinitely," Gracie looked around, "Is it linked to something?"
"A massive maze-like dungeon with several links to a specially built heaven based in the abyss," Cain replied, "Until I get you a pass, the maids are your only way of getting around,"
"Passes?" Sofia stared at him.
"You can walk around in this mansion freely, but to go out, or a room that's housed in another dimension, you'll need a pass. A magic inscription in your hands," He looked at them, "The pass is based on the soul, so you'll have the same pass as the girls I know.
That would cause conflict and would null both passes as the security system would consider them both a fake pass," Cain waved his hand, "I can't be too careful with the abomination around,"
"Then, what will you do?" Alice asked.
"As I said, I'll figure something out. You go, take a bath and rest for now," He turned and saw Klara approaching.
"Master Cain, what's going on?" She stared at the girls, "Why do they look shriveled like a dead squid?"
"I'm sure they aren't," Cain sighed, staring at the girls, "They definitely look older, but not shriveled. Where did you see that?"
Klara stared at him, "It's a joke. Lady Alice would've got it. Those are fakes," She glared at the girls, "So tell me, are they the same as Elise and Amaya?"
"You're sharp," Cain smiled, patting her shoulder, "As expected from you, they won't fool your eyes,"
"Of course they won't. I've been serving here for a while. It'll be embarrassing if I can't tell the ladies apart," She replied.
"You're right. They are the same as Amaya and Elise. They are from other timelines where I died," Cain looked at them, "Except those two," He pointed, "Bacchus, the devil of liquor and wine, I intend on raising her to goddess statues to handle entertainment in general,"
"And she?" Klara looked at Ereshkigal.
"Remember what happened to Alice?" Cain smiled, and Bacchus gasped, "AH! We forgot him in hell!" Cain waved his hand. "Go and find him in devil's lip. When you do, a purple portal will appear. Send him through that then call me to bring you back,"
ZON! At the back, a portal opened, "Wait for me!" Bacchus rushed after them, "Cain just returned me,"
Klara looked back at her, "Don't worry, the bath is still within this mansion and I'm not the only maid here,"
As they walked toward the stairs, they saw Diana walk up the stairs, "Headmaid Klara, who are they?" She asked.
"A long story. I'll explain to you once I get them into the bath." Klara replied.
"Then I'll gather everyone in the living room,"
"Please do," Klara said as she walked away with the girls.
Diana rushed through the hallway to call the other maids, almost tripping on her own legs.
Maharaja looked at Klara, "She smells weird,"
Grace added, "She means that she's reeking with divine magic, and you as well,"
"Probably since they live here?" Asmo scratched her head, "What do you think?"
"Do humans even adapt to their environment like dragons?" Tiamat added.
"It's obvious," Bacchus sighed, looking at Ereshkigal.
"Yeah," Ereshkigal looked at Klara, "They've been sleeping with Cain all this time. It's his magic that's floating in their bodies."
"You're right," Klara replied, "As Master once said, each of us has enough divine magic to put demigods to shame, but sadly we aren't fighters." She smiled, "You can say that by sleeping with him our bodies and souls get soaked in divine magic. The same happens for the ladies of the house, and we've been abusing it to get stronger,"
"Really?" The girls stared at her, confused.
"As an Overgod, his power is on another level. You can say it's the most effective way he could share his power with them," Ereshkigal looked at the girls, "We might end up the same,"
"We'll end up the same," Grace replied, "Of course," Tiamat growled, "Nya!" And Maharaja confirmed after them. "Wait!" Asmo looked at Ereshkigal, "You as well?"
"Yeah, I think so," She sighed, holding her head, "I'm not sure about this,"
"You're stuck with your daughter," Bacchus laughed at her, "For me, I'll happily do it. He's the overgod, you know?"
"We arrived," Klara said as she stopped in front of the bath's door, "The ladies are currently outside training. They'll be home by the time you get out, so at least show some respect,"
"We aren't going to start a fight," Asmo looked at her.
"You'll understand when that time comes," Klara opened the door, "Let's get inside,"
