2 year anniversary special: Fantasia and the Dimensional Telescope
“Good night, Papa.”
I was sad that Papa had to leave the Factory for the night, but I understand. He isn’t like me.
I’m a skill. Papa’s skill. Papa’s Different Dimension Factory.
And Papa gave me my name, Fantasia.
After Papa left so he could sleep for the night, I headed to the home Papa made for us.
... sadly most of the time it was just me alone, as Big Sis Tahlia prefers to stay in her room at the bank and Mama is the busiest during the night. At least Mama has the time to come tuck me into bed and give me a goodnight kiss.
Mama does so many things to make Papa’s life easier. Her nights start with overseeing the production of Pack tokens by the Guardian monsters. I sometimes ask Mama why more Pack tokens are needed when Papa already has so many and Mama just answers that more is always better.
So she oversees the production of Pack tokens, while also using them to open more packs to build up Papa’s Collection.
After working with Pack Opener, Mama heads to the bank to see how much money was made that day. She also visits Tahlia at the same time.
Then comes the most important time of the night for her. Working on experiments for Papa. At first, I wanted to help Mama with them, but oftentimes, they are just so boring that I end up falling asleep and Mama has to take me home to sleep.
... sleep... Yes. I should sleep now...
I woke up at some point. For Papa, it is still night, but that is because the time between the Factory and the world Papa lives in is different. When I was born, they were quite close. You could barely notice it if you didn’t measure the time.
But as I’ve been growing in levels, the time difference has been growing. Now, for every 1 day that happens in Papa’s world, 4 days take place in the Factory.
Since I felt rested, I got up, brushed my teeth and changed my clothes. I then got outside to see which monster would be waiting for me.
There was always one waiting for me when I woke up. I think they play games to pick who gets to be my escort for the day, and today it seemed like a Reptile monster won.
“Good morning, Miss.” She greeted me. She was a lady with the lower half being a snake. A lamia. ... but I don’t think normal lamias have a snake mouth at the end of their tail.

“Morning. Where is Mama?” I asked.
“I’m sure Papa will understand.”
“... I’ll ... I’ll ask him about it.”
“He will understand.” I told her. Seeing Papa sleep with Mama Lua made me really want to sleep next to Mama. And maybe if Mama comes home to sleep, maybe I can get Big Sis to also come. And we can sleep like how Papa sleeps with Mama Lua and Mama Alice.
I kept looking through the telescope. Because of the time difference, it was strange to look at any place where someone was moving. They just moved so slow. But maybe because of that, we can keep an eye on everything. Then nothing will surprise Papa.
Mama then changed the telescope so that we were looking at some other place. It was super colorful and pretty, but everything there moved so fast that it was hard to keep track of.
“That is the spirit world. It is where Papa went.” Mama told me.
“... it is colorful like Neo Space.” I said.

“I suppose it is.” Mama said. “But there is one more place you should see. It is why Papa really wants this telescope made.” Mama then changed what we were seeing into some other dimension.
I didn’t really know why it was special, as it didn’t look that special to me. It just had tons of monsters going around, doing whatever they were doing. I didn’t see a single human, so maybe that dimension has no humans living in it.
“That is the ‘summonable monsters’ dimension, as Papa calls it. Papa can call the monsters there using Advanced Summoning Magic.”
“... so it is like the Factory!” I stated. “Factory holds Papa’s Pack Opener monsters while that dimension holds Papa’s Summoning Magic monsters!”
“Well, sort of. See all of those monsters aren’t something Papa can summon. He can only summon the ice dragon. But now that Papa can observe them, he can get the help of a spirit to summon a specific monster from there and then he can make a contract with it.”
“... so it is like Papa being able to pre-see a pack before he opens it?” I asked.
“That is a good comparison.” Mama said, as she ruffled my hair.
“Mama! I just brushed it! Now you are mixing it up.” I complained.
“Then I’ll brush it again for you.” Mama promised.
“Okay!”
