Time passed by, and the next day finally came, which felt more like two days thanks to Frank going around worlds like it is nobody's business.

Like every morning, he was greeted by Arthurious and Miriam in the morning, and with the help of his family, they maintained the shop and attended all sorts of clients.

There was a big influx of clients today, more than any time as the days for the tournament approached, people were packing all sorts of items that they would use to strengthen their monster pets before everything started, also, it wasn't allowed to use healing items in the tournament but people were still buying them in big quantities because they made their monster pets train until being completely wounded and then heal them to train again.

The trainers of this world were certainly quite cruel with their pets, and many saw them as more like slaves that had to always obey them than as companions, although some like Miriam and Arthurious still saw monster pets as… well, pets, companions, creatures you have to take care, not just slaved monsters that you force to fight with one another.

But Frank profited from that very market, so he let them do as they pleased, as he continued selling items and letting the people exhaust their monster pets as much as possible.

The day continued as usual, after a lunch break, they continued all the way up to 7 PM, where the shop finally closed, and the last clients of the day got what they wanted.

"And done for today as well… Phew, that wasn't so bad, isn't it?" sighed Frank, as he saw everyone else resting over the tables, seats, and more, completely exhausted. They had all worked together to attend the literal hundreds of clients Frank got now.

"This is horrendous!" said Orb. "There were too many people now."

"Yeah… I-I agree…" sighed Clishya. "But I am glad my dear Frank's shop is doing so well…"

"Agh… My back…" cried Gwendolyn. "Annabelle come give your mommy a massage."

"Mom do you think I can even move?" asked Annabelle, as Alexander was jumping over her belly while trying to play with his big sister, but she was half-dead in the floor.

"Ugh… Frank… Come give your mommy a massage in her feet…" said Amelia.

"Ask Okita for that." Said Frank, as he ignored his mother's request.

"I can't move…" muttered Okita.

Even in the level of divine beings, when they were given so much work, one was bound to become extremely exhausted at the end…

Frank slowly helped everyone get better through Ginseng healing powers, and then they all enjoyed a dinner together.

After the dinner was over, Frank decided to go to Miriam's orphanage at long last, while Arthurious made his way back home for the moment.

He brought with him Gwendolyn, leaving Alexander with his sister, as the two had already gone back to Earth and were taking a nap together, perhaps the nap would become a full sleep and they would wake up tomorrow morning.

The rest of the family had also gone back to Earth, so it left Frank with Gwendolyn and well, their monster pets, which accompanied them as they walked with Miriam back to the orphanage.

Miriam was actually nervous, she didn't knew what they really wanted to do, and maybe she thought they wanted to donate money, after all Frank had shown her that he was very generous, so maybe he wanted to help her siblings, but that was a bad idea because those malicious nuns would keep all the money anyways…

"Sir Frank, what do you plan to do?" she asked. "If you want to donate money, you mustn't! Those two nuns are not even good people… They only take advantage of us… they'll keep all the money and won't improve our lives at all!"

"I know, and no, I am not planning on donating any money to them." Said Frank. "But I can't tell you yet, it is a surprise after all…"

"I-I see…" said Miriam confusedly. "(Then what exactly does he wants?)"

She could never guess Frank's true intentions because she thought that Frank already being the father of various children (Alexander, Ruby, Vritra, Selcis) would never adopt another kid anymore, and that such a thing seemed very unlikely for someone so busy!

…Even thought that was exactly his intention.

Gwendolyn began to speak with him through telepathy.

"Are you sure its ok to just hide this from her? She's just very curious and I feel bad for hiding this from her!" she said. "Just tell her."

"But I want it to be a surprise so she's more happy that way." I said. "I kind of want to see the face of the nuns. I've been seeing them through Onyx, they're really assholes…"

"Hmmm… Sigh… Okay do whatever you want." Sighed Gwendolyn. "But- Huh? What's that?"

"I also sensed it." said Frank.

From the nearby streets, several shadows began to slowly walk around the darkness of the night, Frank and Gwendolyn kept close to Miriam as if protecting her.

"Hm? What's wrong?" she wondered. "Eh?!"

And there they were, a large gang of thugs emerging from the alleys out of absolutely nowhere, this greatly surprised the young and little Miriam, who thought that something like this could never happen to her now that she was with Ryujin and Frank and Gwendolyn.

"What do you want?" asked Frank. He saw the thugs with their monster pets, they were dozens that continued to emerge form the streets, circling them down.

A man with red hair showed up, the leader of the gang.

"You can't win no matter what monster pet you use, give us the girl and her dragon and we'll let you live." He said.

"What?" asked Frank while gritting his teeth. "From where did you came from? Oh… I see, you're from the Black Eye bastards? I was just letting you slide this entire time but maybe I just should slaughter your entire organization if you had the audacity of coming to assault us personally."
