"The incident..." Valeria spoke of her concerns.
"She hasn't forgotten," Victor said.
Valeria visibly shuddered.
"Please, Master! I know it's shaless to ask since you've done so much for , but please make her forget?"
"Are you sure, my disciple?" Victor asked. "Rember, mories shape who we are today. If she forgets this incident, she will forget that she was also 'revived,' consequently, her adaptation to the new world will be even more difficult... Her adaptation to the new 'you' will be even more difficult."
Valeria shuddered when she heard these words, doubts arose in her mind, but these doubts were imdiately extinguished. "No being, be it man or woman, should rember such abuse."
"I agree," Victor nodded.
Valeria looked puzzled at Victor.
"Do not misunderstand my intentions, my disciple. I am not trying to convince you to let her keep these mories; I am rely drawing attention to the possible consequences of your decision. Ultimately, the decision is yours, whatever it may be, I will respect it."
"At the very least, I think Vanessa should have so input on the matter, right? Do not make the sa mistake you made in the past, my disciple."
Valeria shuddered again when she heard these words; she understood what her master was trying to tell her. In the past, she tended to control her daughter too much, she tended to make too many decisions for her own daughter, only when the incident happened did she regret her actions.
If she had listened to her daughter more... If she had spent more ti with her... There were so many regrets she had. And thanks to her God, she is having a new opportunity to do things right.
"...I will await my judgnt until my daughter shares her opinion," Valeria decided to slow down; she was too anxious.
Victor nodded. "Spend ti with your daughter, understand her better. When a week has passed, I will return to hear both of your responses."
Victor snapped his fingers, and a small wooden house ford on the hill. "The house has everything you need. You both need a peaceful environnt to get things back on track, and I believe this is the best place for it... After all, this view is one of my favorite spots on my planet."
He smiled gently as he looked out at the horizon and saw the crystal-clear water with snow-capped mountains; the sun began to set, and the darkness of the night embraced the three beings, a lush, clearly alien forest with various parts in neon colors that contrasted with nature appeared.
There is a reason why Victor is so adamant about not allowing other beings to co to this planet; this is his personal paradise, and those who can step foot on this place are only his family.
Victor whistled, and the next mont several animals began to appear; they had various forms, so were alien, others were earthly animals, the variety was surreal, clearly Gaia was doing her job correctly.
Predators and prey were in the sa place, and yet, nothing happened, all because of the presence of a single being. The animals here, although not entirely conscious like humans, were intelligent, and they were all connected to nature in so way; because of this, they understood very well who this 'being' in front of them was.
He was their creator; he was their god.
"Do not disturb that house, okay?"
Different sounds resembling agreent roars were heard around.
This scene deeply impacted Valeria; if before she was completely fanatical to the point of doing anything for her god, that desire was strengthened even more through the various miracles he showed, and mainly because he brought back her dear daughter... Sothing she is sure the other pagan gods could not do.
While stroking a tiger that seed like a mix between a snow leopard and a saber-toothed tiger, Victor spoke to Valeria:
"mories remain to remind us of the past, but the body does not suffer the consequences of the past. Her body was specifically created by ; she is a common human, but in broader terms, she is of 'superior' quality compared to other humans. You could say she is like what a true human should be."
"She will never get sick, she will never suffer from the 'flaws' that a common human will have. Her body will maintain its youthfulness when she turns 21, keeping this state until she reaches 70, then eventually she will begin to age and die at 150 years old."
Could Victor make these qualities even better? Yes, he could. He could make a Superior Human who could easily live for a thousand years. In a way, these humans would be like 'Adam,' the progenitor of humans, but such exaggeration was not necessary.
"... Could she be like ?"
"It depends, if she is worthy enough. Yes, she could."
Valeria nodded; she understood Victor's words. He wasn't being kind for no reason; he brought her back. Yes, he did. But he brought her back because Valeria worked for it; she was 'worthy' of such a reward.
As this conversation unfolded, the animals around looked at the tiger with a visible expression of jealousy for being petted.
The tiger, resembling a mix of a saber-toothed tiger and a snow leopard, didn't care at all about these stupid animals; he was currently in ninth heaven of comfort.
"I'll be back in seven days, my disciple, until then, enjoy."
"W-Wait, Master. Who will take care of my duties?"
"Hmm? Of course, it's ."
"... Eh?" Valeria was taken aback.
[Huh?] Roxanne exclaid.
"See you in seven days."
When Victor disappeared, a deep silence fell over the area; the animals began to return to the forest, so stronger predators stayed nearby to ensure the safety of the two won.
Others just went back to their hos and spread the 'word' of the creator to the family mbers.
Valeria thought, her master, her god, her everything would spend 7 days working in the place that would be hers; all her subordinates would work with him for seven days... SEVEN DAYS!
Valeria gritted her teeth; she was extrely jealous now! She wanted to work with her Master too!
"... Mother..."
Valeria's feelings dissipated into the wind when she heard her daughter's words. "Yes... That doesn't matter now; I need to take care of my daughter." She picked up her daughter like a princess and walked toward the wooden house.
Arriving at the house, her thoughts couldn't help but drift back to her subordinates again, and a petty thought crossed her mind: '... I will punish them when I return to my position.'
...
[Wait, Wait, Victor! You can't just decide you'll work like this! Think about your position!] Roxanne spoke.
What kind of God works leading their own religion!? That doesn't happen! That's why the supre priestess exists as his representative!
Victor suddenly stopped. "You're right, as the God Emperor, I must maintain my reputation. Why should I work? They should work for ."
[Exactly! Calm down, stop being naughty, you're the God Emperor for heaven's sake!]
[Are you talking about ?] Victor smiled.
[Ugh, you got it! Don't twist my words!]
"Although you are right, I cannot go back on my words. I told Valeria I would take over for seven days. How will she feel jealous of her subordinates if I don't do this?"
[That's the reason why you're doing this!?] Roxanne exclaid exasperatedly, Victor could be very childish sotis!
"Woman, I am the god of Yanderes. If I don't create Yanderes wherever I go, I wouldn't be living up to my na."
"Therefore, I will assu Valeria's position... But it will be only for a day; after all, I have a commitnt with my beloved wife to follow."
[... Darling, admit it. You just want to fool around, don't you?] Amara spoke with a narrowed gaze.
"Fufufufu~, who knows~?"
[... Sotis, I think the reason why our daughters are so playful is because they inherited that trait from Victor.] Roxanne sighed as she saw Victor's smile, which was the sa smile her daughters made when they wanted to play around.
[Well, they are father and daughters, after all.] Amara shrugged.
Victor appeared at the place where Valeria left in his usual suit, he thought about wearing his armor, but it seed too overkill, so he just remained as he was.
His sudden appearance made the whole place fall into absolute silence; the eyeballs of everyone present seed like they would pop out of their faces with the shock they received.
[Fufufufu, this is fun.]
Amara and Roxanne rolled their eyes.
[Ugh... I want to see what dad is doing; he seems to be having fun. Why are we stuck here?] Rosalyn grumbled.
[Just finish the lesson quickly, Rosalyn! That way, we can play with our dad!] Amaya spoke.
[Right...]
"My beloved, faithful ones. I will assu my disciple's position for a day. I expect the sa level of diligence you have with my disciple."
The silence still continued in the place; everyone seed like petrified statues.
Victor clapped his hands once, causing a small sound wave that awakened everyone.
"Back to work, my faithful ones."
"R-R-RIGHT!"
"Y-Y-YES!"
Like chickens that lost their heads, everyone started running around, and the next mont, they stumbled and fell around, creating a little ss.
[hahaha~]
Feeling the fun emanating from every corner of Victor's soul, Amara and Roxanne couldn't help but smile, although they found this situation absurd and disapproved of the Emperor himself taking on such a humble job, they were happy as long as Victor was having fun.
Victor just stood there watching the archbishops who were on the ground.
The archbishops, who were composed of won, wanted to bury themselves 10 ters underground and not co out! They were so embarrassed!
"You don't need to rush, my dear faithful ones." He smiled gently, and that smile was very devastating for those won.
"Carry out your duties, and obey my orders; even before you understand, you will finish everything. Now, bring the reports of the current missions given by my disciple."
"Y-Y-Yes, Your Majesty!"
The won quickly got up from the ground and 'slowly' walked towards the door; the mont they left, they imdiately ran and started shouting orders.
The younger disciples didn't understand what was happening; they didn't understand why they were so apprehensive.
"What's going on?"
"Why the hurry?"
"Is the world ending or sothing?"
"Back to work!!"
"YES!!"
