[Luna POV]

Time passed quickly as we all did things around the shrine and village while waiting for the festival to start.  I even teleported to the capital to pick dad up since he sent a letter saying that everything he had to do there was finished.  Turns out that what he had to do was make a plan for what to do about the future of our family since we are all immortal now and can’t really pass on our family name.  What was ultimately decided was that our territory will be watched over by our family for the rest of time unless we find someone suitable to take over one day.  Since that will be the case, dad has to stay as the general of the country for the entire time as well, but he had no problems with that since he enjoyed the job.

 

When we arrived back at the shrine, dad went to tell mom what the final decision on the matter was and I went to find my friends.  Ophidia was the easiest to find since she and Skadi were always at the training grounds.  Skadi was helping her hone her technique so that she could improve.  I greeted them normally before going to find the others.  I found Mio taking a nap under a tree in a sunny spot and decided to just let her sleep.  I never found where Velvet and Soleil were, but I guessed they were together, so I decided to go and see Blake.  I made him jump when I arrived teleported in front of him.

 

“Damn it, Luna!” (Blake)

 

“Fufufu.  Why so jumpy, Blake?” (Luna)

 

You know I don’t do jump scares.” (Blake)

 

“I wasn’t trying to scare you.  I’m just bored and want something to do.” (Luna)

 

“Then why not ask your party to do something with you?” (Blake)

 

“Ophidia and Skadi are together, Mio is asleep, and I can’t find Velvet and Soleil.  Granted, I didn’t really try to find them, but still.” (Luna)

 

Blake narrowed his eyes at my last statement.

 

“Heh.” (Luna)

 

“Wipe that smug look off your face.” (Blake)

 

“I don’t think I will.  Just imagine what your sister would say if she saw how you were acting just now.  She’d get a kick out of it.” (Luna)

 

“Come to think of it, didn’t the two of you have a bet going to see if either of us would get married first?” (Blake)

 

“Tch.  Now that you say that, you’re right.  And I won it too.  Guess I’ll have to figure out how to travel worlds with my space magic one day.” (Luna)

 

{No can do, Luna.  There are rules in place to prevent that.  Otherworlder summoning and the rare case of reincarnation from a different world are exceptions, but gods aren’t allowed to travel to different worlds.  That marks them as evil gods and makes them targets for immediate destruction.}

 

“Guess I’ll give up on that then.” (Luna)

 

“That was a quick decision.” (Blake)

 

“Eh, I like living and don’t want to be marked as an evil god, so I’ll let her off this time.” (Luna)

 

“Ooook.  So, did you just come here to bother me, or did you actually want something?” (Blake)

 

“I already said that I was bored and just came here for something to do.” (Luna)

 

“Oh yeah, you did say that.” (Blake)

 

“Hey, have you heard anything about our mutual otherworlder acquaintance recently?” (Luna)

 

“Who, Damien?  Not a word.  Last I heard anything about him, he was somewhere between the Demon Empire and Dwarf country, and that was six months ago.  Why, are you going to try and meet up with him?” (Blake)

 

“Maybe, I haven’t really decided yet.  Though I hope he’s mellowed out by now.  I’d hate to have to do something to him if he tried anything with any of us.” (Luna)

 

“Who knows.  Maybe he finally found a vampire to marry or something and mellowed out like you said.” (Blake)

 

“While that would be the best case scenario, I highly doubt that would happen.  The way Velvet looked when I described him spoke volumes of how she and probably most ither vampires would see him.” (Luna)

 

“True.  He was like that after all.  Though now that I think about it, I’m surprised I haven’t heard of him much in this kingdom in all these years.  I mean, animal ears and fluff were his second obsession after vampires.” (Blake)

 

I felt a shiver go down my spine.

 

“Your right.  I completely forgot about that.  Maybe it’s best if I don’t try to find him.” (Luna)

 

“If you do ever see him, keep Soleil away from him.” (Blake)

 

“You don’t have to ask me twice.  Not that Velvet would let him get anywhere near her anyway.” (Luna)

 

“You have to protect her as well.” (Blake)

 

“Really?  She is an S-rank adventurer as well you know.  Not as strong as me, but she’d put up a good fight against any of the summoned people that I remember.” (Luna)

 

“Luna, we were all still weak when you last interacted with any of them.” (Blake)

 

“And the ones that stayed were weakened after the fact, right?” (Luna)

 

“Oh yeah.  We were.” (Blake)

 

“Dude, you’re not even that old yet, how are you this forgetful already?” (Luna)

 

“Shut up.” (Blake)

 

“No, I don’t think I will.  Now, since I’m here and you don’t seem busy, help me out a bit.” (Luna)

 

“What do you need?” (Blake)

 

I dumped out several of my weapons on the ground.

 

“Some of these need repairs and I don’t know how to do that.” (Luna)

 

“Couldn’t you ask Soleil?  She can do this much too, you know.” (Blake)

 

“We don’t have a forge at the mansion.  Now that I think of it, I should go buy one.” (Luna)

 

“Look at you talking about spending ridiculous amounts of money like it’s nothing.” (Blake)

 

“Like you’re one to talk.  You still haven’t even used up all the stuff you got from being a summoned hero that chose to stay here.  And it’s not like I even use much money in the first place, so I have a lot saved up.” (Luna)

 

{Actually Luna, couldn’t you just make a forge and stuff with illusions when you really need it?}

 

“…You’re right, Tamamo.  I could do that.  Now that I think about it, Can’t I make most things with illusions?” (Luna)

 

“Goddess, please don’t give her ridiculous ideas.  What if she decides to start doing something like making her clothes out of illusions?” (Blake)

 

{…}

 

“…” (Luna)

 

“Don’t tell me.” (Blake)

 

“No, I still wear regular clothes.” (Luna)

 

“*Sigh* Then what was that look for?” (Blake)

 

“The saying ignorance is bliss is perfect for this situation.” (Luna)

 

“Understood.  I will forget this whole conversation happened.” (Blake)

 

“Good boy.  Now, help me out with all of this.” (Luna)

 

“Fine, but you’re going to pay me after.” (Blake)

 

“Naturally.” (Luna)

 

We spent the rest of the day looking over and repairing my weapons.  We finished in the evening and I went back to the shrine, ready for the next day.  By the time the sun started to rise, I could barely contain my excitement.  Everyone was eating breakfast when Tamamo told me to create a domain.  I did as she asked and she came down to join us.  I immediately noticed her change.

 

“No fair Tamamo, how did you get a tenth tail?” I said as I jumped into her arms.

 

{Just like I did with the others.}

 

“Then how am I supposed to get a tenth?” (Luna)

 

{Age maybe?}

 

“No, there has to be another way.  I won’t stand for this, I need to have the same amount of tails as you.” (Luna)

 

“Why?” (Amagi)

 

“I just do, mom.” (Luna)

 

{Ufufu.  We’ll figure something out, so don’t worry about it for now.}

 

“Fine.  How long are you allowed to stay outside of a domain today?” (Luna)

 

{Until sunrise tomorrow.  I just wanted to show off my tenth tail before officially descending today.}

 

As she said this, all but one of her tails disappeared and I could feel her presence grow smaller.

 

“…” (Luna)

 

{Is something wrong, Luna?}

 

“No, it’s just weird seeing you with only one tail.” (Luna)

 

{Well, it must be done if you want me here for today.}

 

“I never said I hated it.” (Luna)

 

We started to hug again.

 

“Luna, Goddess Tamamo, you can flirt late, for now, please sit down and eat.” (Amagi)

 

“Tch.” (Luna)

 

“Don’t ‘tch’ me, Luna.” (Amagi)

 

“Haha.  This brings back memories.” (Deacon)

 

“Was Lunya like this before nya?” (Mio)

 

“All the time.” (Deacon)

 

I sat down again and Tamamo sat next to me and I pulled out some extra food for her.  We all chatted as we ate before the festival truly started.

 

Chaos Realm:
Atmos: Luna and Blake really are good friends.

Grey: I know, right.

Atmos: Though now I'm a bit interested in seeing this alchemist as well.  I bet it'd be fun to see what happens if he and Luna meet.

Shall we make it happen?

Atmos: Not any time soon, but eventually, yes.

Grey: I feel like I shouldn't have heard that.

Eh, you'll forget it when you leave anyway, so it's fine.

Grey: Fair enough.
