“So then you want to make all of them mine? Like the whole family tree?” I asked curiously.
“Yes, and I know it is a lot to ask of you when you are already looking after so many, but I think that they will be happy. Even if it’s just to know that they have soone that cares about them,” x explained, and I nodded thoughtfully.
“Sure, but then what are you going to do? Settle down with Candace?” I asked curiously, and to my surprise, he nodded right away.
“I really like Candace, and over the years, I have grown attached to her, so I would like to make it more public for her. I also noticed what you did with Veronica, and I am curious if you can do the sa for her sister?” x asked curiously, but I really wasn’t sure, and I really didn’t want to bring Harold up again.
“I am not really sure at the mont, but I think that we should get going, and we can look into it later,” I said and then started to walk over the edge as I mulled everything over.
I hadn’t been thinking about doing it, but I still wanted to wait until the won birthed my mories. Nushi and Hanna were the only demons in my System right now, and I wanted to test sothing.
I could see which route was better by not adding the other won, but it wasn’t like I could take all Demons in. I didn’t want to make any of the others more or less now that I had the plan.
The other won were all reasonably close, so I didn’t want to make one more than the other, but I think I might make an exception for Lidy. While Nushi was the first and decided before I t most of the other won, Lidy was unique, and Hanna was already in the System.
Hanna had been more of a strategic move, so to speak, so I could find her, but she was Lidy’s sister. The other Demon that I convinced to join in the center of the island would also beco part of the System.
“Is he not here?” x asked from behind .
That surprised , and I turned around to look at x, and he had a puzzled look on his face. I wasn’t really sure how to reply, so I tried to just raise an eyebrow questioningly.
“The God or whatever you talk to,” x added, and I groaned, but there was nothing for it right now.
“Yeah, when I entered this world, he disappeared, and it was a pretty inconvenient ti. I have no idea how to use my new Aspect thing,” I complained, but then rembered sothing and asked, “Hey, you are a shaman, right?”
“Hardly, I only have access to two totems, and neither is useful for the most part. I have one from Candace and one from Kieta. Candace’s is an Air Sphinx Totem, and it allows you to see far, while the Water Sphinxlin Totem allows to Calm creatures,” x explained, but I didn’t really think he would, but I was surprised about Kieta.
“You and Kieta were, or are doing it?” I asked, and x shook his head no.
“No, she is like my daughter; I bought her from a blacksmith ages ago. I Heard what you did for her, and thank you. I had ant to do it when you got back tonight, but we aren’t going to make it,” x said, and I nodded.
“Okay, I think she will be a tough nut to crack or even pry from her work,” I joked, and x grinned at .
“I wouldn’t worry about that one too much. I think that Kieta likes won, and she was very close to one of Mary’s sisters, Mati,” x said, and I nodded.
That was good to know, but now I needed focus, and I could think about that other stuff tonight. For now, we needed to get sowhere that we could sleep because I didn’t really want to sleep out in the open in a world like this.
I closed my eyes for a mont and centered myself, focusing on Fireden’s presence. I wanted to see if he could maybe help out.
‘Fire Boss, do you think that you could help out-’
I felt a hot ntal slap that jumbled my thoughts, and it almost made lose the connection that I had just established with Fireden.
[I really thought that the Hero fellow was a bit overzealous with his accusations of you not asking for help, but co on, man!]
‘Did you just backhand ?’
[No, I used the other side, but if you keep ignoring us, I am going to let you try it out!]
“Z-Zack… yeah, Zack! Are you okay? You looked like you just got hit by sothing!” x said from beside .
“Give a mont while I deal with this hot-headed prick in my head,” I growled as I held my focus and threw all of myself into the connection.
Suddenly, I was in the place of two suns floating through the Cosmos, but I wasn’t restricted this ti. Fireden and Wataluga were both standing before ; one had arms crossed while the other grinned.
There was a thin ethereal line that connected to Fireden but nothing to Wataluga. I would get the answer to this and everything else now and set sothing straight.
“So, oh great fiery storyteller, answer this! In what fucking story of your does it end good for the arrogant passenger that slaps the driver and owner of the vehicle?” I growled as I walked up to Fireden, and he uncrossed his arms and his flas stoked.
“The one where the passenger reminds driver who is fueling the vehicle and that he would like to make it to his destination, you stupid fucking athead!” Fireden snapped, and that really ground my gears as my own heat started to rise.
