After my mother greeted us, my father appeared not too many seconds later. Erging as a towering, looming dark figure that intimidated Surtr and Erald quite a lot. More than I thought. Father was around Rank 10 I believe, and he might even have so Ascendancy Laws too. He was fairly strong of a Dragon. Powerful enough to give a blessing and all. However I don't think he's nowhere close to the strength of truly strong Dragons out there.
"Hoh? So my song has brought so new "friends"…" My father tried to act cool and intimidating, glaring down at the two new recruits. His dark aura encompassing them. "So what are your nas, hm?"
"S-Surtr, sir…" Surtr swallowed saliva. "I-If Drake is so strong, I bet his father is even mightier…! It is an honor to et you."
"L-Likewise!" Erald could barely speak, bowing before my father.
"Hmph, well, naturally. My son has only inherited but a one percent of my true power. He is already the strongest but imagine my strength! Yes, make sure to bow." Fafnir was enjoying this a bit too much.
"Enough with that, sweetie." My mother sighed, her titanic head glaring down at my disciples. "It is nice to see my son has made so other dragon friends! Aren't you two adorable? And brimming with strength and power! You must be the champions of your respective tribes, is it not?"
"W-Well…" Erald was too embarrassed to talk. "I am… an outcast, actually."
"I am the last one of my kin so… I don't know." Surtr sighed.
"Oh…" Nifl's enormous azure-colored eyes seed slightly surprised. "A-Ahahaha, but I am sure Drake has beco your good friend! No? Also I had no idea Muspel had no more children than one… I do rember she died but, this is really bad. I hope my son has been taking good care of you all."
"H-He has, he has taught us so much. He trained and helped awaken my inner potential… I am eternally grateful with master!" Surtr said.
"He also helped a lot. To get through bad tis, and also taught to be braver. And to trust my own strength, and to rely on my friends." Erald sighed. "Actually he taught a lot of stuff… I used to be a lot more cowardly- I-I think!" He was still trembling in front of my father.
"Hmmm, I see. Well done, Drake." My father kept the act. "Ahem! Very well, why have you co here then?"
"Co on dad, stop acting all high and mighty." I sighed. "I think they're both stronger than you by now… Well, maybe in a couple of months."
"What?! But… Aw, co on Drake! You can't just say that! I was feeling so good! It's not everyday you et young dragons that don't know a single thing about !" Fafnir imdiately facepald.
The faces of Surtr and Erald changed completely as they saw him drop the act. They seed utterly disappointed and at the sa ti, shocked. It must have been surprising the first Dark Dragon they et was actually just pretending to be mighty.
"Wait, he was pretending?!" Surtr protested.
"Huh? Wha…?" Erald was confused.
"Anyways!" I said. "We ca here to et you but also for a few other things. Naly, I wanted to inform you of the good news as well. Benladann."
"A-Ah, right, I'm pregnant again…" Benladann blushed a bit after saying that.
"Wait, you are?!" My mother gasped. "Oh yes! Another to the bag of grandkids! My son's such a champion at it!"
"W-Woah, we've only had one kid. Isn't this your third?" Asked my father. "You're already doing better than us…"
"It would be the fourth, I don't rember if we ever told you but I was also pregnant…" Miranda said. "Hi. I don't know if I joined last ti?"
"Oh, aren't you like… Benladann's twin?" My mother asked.
"No dear she's not her twin. She's like her Spirit? Wait, you're also my son's mistress?" Asked my father.
"Y-Yeah, well…" She nodded shily. "Sothing like that, yes. The kid's soon to be born I believe. It has grown very big, and it is draining all my energy constantly… Hahahh…" Miranda felt shy as she caressed her big belly.
"I don't think we told you properly, but yeah." I nodded. "I'll soon be the father of four kids, actually. You'll have four grandkids soon. Pretty crazy, right? How our family continues growing." I gently hugged Miranda's back, as she gave a little kiss in my lips while looking into my eyes.
"Thank you for helping and… Benladann. For trying your best even when I wasn't in the right place myself." She suddenly confessed, holding my hand. "If it wasn't because of you, I would probably continue being a monster, and not the person I feel myself as. Thank you for giving an humanity, Drake."
"M-Miranda…" I felt shocked by her words.
"I'll be a mom now, so I have to talk more maturely, no?" She giggled. "What's wrong? You're all baffled now."
"Aah, well, I was a bit surprised. It wasn't just though, Benladann, even Benladra and Kate, all our friends, they've all helped a bit. Right?" I smiled. "We're all a big family, even with those do not present here. They're all important to us. They care about you too. But yeah, you know already. I love you too."
"You're so corny… gosh." Miranda laughed a bit, resting her head on my shoulders.
"She has truly changed, huh?" Benladann giggled, resting her head at my side too.
But suddenly, I felt soone else as well. Soone that appeared behind like a ghostly figure, phasing through . Her beautiful appearance was unmistakable, and Kate's reaction to her also confird who she was.
"Drake, don't forget about either…"
"Mama's here!" Kate got really happy.
"Huh? S-System, you got in here?!"
"Naturally! Our connection should be strong enough for a little astral projection. I'm still like a ghost, but I wanted to et my parents-in-law in first person too." She greeted the two.
"Oh, so you're little Kate's mother! Nice to et you dear!" Mother smiled.
"N-Nice to et you." My father looked baffled. "My son has three wives?! When did he…? Last ti he only had one!"
"I simply couldn't keep rejecting their feelings. And Benladann was alright with that." I sighed. "Hahaha, sorry."
