"Ah…I'm dead…" I slumped on the ground, ignoring the fact that my surroundings were changing. It was scary to see the space warping after all.
"How are you?" I asked sweetly and my eyes curled up.
[I'm fine.]
My expression twitched at Jarvis' reply. "I'm not speaking to you, Jarvis."
I raised my white sword. "I really like this sword." I smiled contentedly scanning the sword.
Walking toward a random rock, I leaned and sat down.
"It's clearly a stronger weapon than my white staff that had been crafted by Branches of the Holy Tree of Eden." I muttered while stroking the white runes engraved on the blade. The blade was also white but sohow the white runes were whiter and had an otherworldly glow in it.
[Stronger than your staff?]
"Yeah…and it shouldn't be possible…unless…"
[Unless?]
I let out a tired breath.
Am I so lucky?
How is that even possible?
"Unless it's one of Eden's Hallows."
[You speak of…]
"Yeah, the Relics created by Eden himself at the very beginning of everything."
I already knew so of them.
The Pope of the Holy Church of Eden, the headmaster's brother, also had an Eden's Hallows. It was his Ferula. The King of Celesta also had one.
I had read that one of Eden's Hallows was a divine sword but I didn't know that it could be found here? Even less that I could wield such a weapon…
I shouldn't even be able to touch it…
As I was lost in my thoughts, a figure shone and appeared next to . She sat close to and leaned her head to my shoulders.
I smiled and stroked her blond hair. "Annabelle, what's up?"
"I'm ahaaaaa—tired, daddy…" Annabelle yawned and stretched out her legs.
"Did you finally get control over your Legacy?" I asked.
Annabelle inherited Baphot's Legacy unwillingly because I saved her at the last mont. Baphot only contracted her to kill her right after but unfortunately for him, I had Cleenah's cheat power.
"Yes! Better than before! Look daddy!" Annabelle waved her hand and a brown-haired really creepy doll appeared in her hand.
"Say hello, Peggy." Annabelle raised the doll's right arm and waved at .
"I-It's sure cute. Ahahah."
[You are scared.]
Shut up!
Thankfully Annabelle put away Peggy and leaned on my shoulders with a cute smile.
"I want to play, daddy."
"Did we not play enough last night?"
"Yes but it wasn't enough!"
"Alright, how about…" An idea popped in my mind. "How about you send Peggy to the other rooms of the dormitory?"
It's sure going to be fun.
I wanna see Alfred screaming like a little girl.
"Yes! Thanks Papa!" Annabelle hugged my arm and giggled.
"Urghh…" I felt a huge damage when she called 'Papa' but it was cute so I let it go.
"I'm sorry, Nyr, she escaped…" Mary appeared in front of and patted Annabelle's hair.
"Shorry big sister…" Annabelle said with teary eyes.
"You are always forgiven Anna," Mary said before tickling Annabelle.
"Ahahahaha! S-Stop it!"
Why do I feel like I'm the husband, Mary being the wife and Annabelle being our child?
But seeing Mary laughing and teasing Annabelle who was also laughing was a nice sight. I saw them so much suffering that I couldn't help but be happy.
After two minutes Mary stopped and Annabelle puffed out her cheeks.
"You should put it back, Nyr." Mary muttered seeing clenching the white sword.
"Ah, yeah, my bad."
I shouldn't hang around carelessly with such a weapon. Surprisingly I just thought about putting it away and it disappeared on its own.
It's pretty handy.
"You are hurt?" Mary knelt in front of and touched my forehead which was slightly bruised.
"It's nothing."
"I will treat-" Before Mary could finish, I grabbed her arm and lowered her hand.
"Mary." I looked seriously at her.
"Nyr?"
"You know that I love Ephera, right?" I said to her but she already knew it since we shared a lot of our mories.
"I know." Mary nodded with a confused expression, not understanding where I was going.
"Does that bother you?" I asked directly.
"No," Mary didn't even hesitate and shook her head. "As long as I am with you. It's fine."
"I like you Mary." I blurted out earlier than what I had planned.
"..." Mary took ti to proceed with my words and slowly her eyes opened wide.
"I want to form a family with you," I took out from my space ring, another ring but this one was more beautiful. A beautiful silver ring. It took ti to but since I wanted to buy with my own money but finally...
I gently grasped her left hand.
Mary panicked seeing that. "N-Nyr…! I-I can't-"
"I just have to resurrect you, right?" I asked with a grin.
Mary's hand in my grasp trembled and her eyes moistened at my words.
"Trust . I will."
"U-Um."
When Mary nodded, I slid slowly the silver ring in Mary's ring finger.
Mary, overwheld by her emotions, wiped her tears but at that mont I wrapped my arms around her waist and leaned my face closer to hers.
Then I felt that amazingly soft and sweet sensation on my lips that I had only felt once from Ephera on Earth.
"Ah!" Mary was surprised at first but soon she wrapped her arms around my neck.
We kept our lips pressed on each other for a long minute before we parted our lips. A thread of saliva hung linking both our lips.
"!" Mary's face flushed bright red and she quickly wiped her lips before averting her gaze.
Oh man, she is too charming.
I also averted my face since it was too much emotion for my body.
I think I'm head over heels for her.
"Woah!"
Shit.
Annabelle had her mouth opened wide as she looked at us.
"I also want a kiss from Daddy!"
[FBI open the door.]
"I'm not a lolicon!"
"Lolicon?" Annabelle tilted her head.
I'm really worthy to a father?
[Never.]
It was going too well.
I should have expected.
"I-I'm leaving, Nyr!" Mary stamred shyly before disappearing in her dinsion.
Such a pity. I wanted to see more of her reactions.
"Why did you put a ring on, daddy?" Annabelle asked curiously.
I smiled at Annabelle's innocent question and lifted her to put my lap. "It ans that she is part of my family now."
"Family? Then…what about …?"
"Y-You are as well, of course!" I quickly spoke, seeing Annabelle's eyes getting wet.
"Yes, daddy!"
Thinking about sothing, I took out my phone and opened my photos. "Look, she is your Aunty." I showed Annabelle Elona's picture.
"Aunty?"
"Yes, my sister, so your aunty Elona."
"Um!"
Pretty sure Elona will absolutely love Annabelle. When the ti cos, I will present her. She already knows that I'm a freak with several Legacies anyway.
"Next should be…aunt Belle? You can…call her grandma I guess?"
Wait!
Aunt Belle will kill if I make Annablle call her grandma when she is not even married!
"Grandma!"
"How about, big sister?"
"Grandma!"
I will brainwash her after.
"Next…"
I thought about my shitty father but no thanks. Annabelle will only be corrupted by seeing his annoying face.
Mother…she is…
I swiped on my phone and I eventually fell on Simon. I didn't have any photos from him so it was his photo from the ssage app. In the photo, he had his hand raised waving at soone.
He is trying to seduce Lyra but he is clowning around on the app.
Hope for him she won't see this photo.
What the heck is he doing?
Soon enough my eyes fell on the last ssage he sent .
The last one was yesterday morning.
['Good luck, brother!']
He is sure motivated to force the non-existent brotherly relation between us. Since months ago, he started to try to close the distance between us, calling brother here and there but it was only irritating to .
Each ti I dismissed him, Elona intervened to annoy with the usual "We are siblings, big brother!"
I scrolled the ssage from before and there were similar ssages.
[You ignored most of his ssages. Isn't that cruel?]
It's my fault now?!
I was cringing here!
Sotis, he'd call Edward but most of the ti there was that 'brother'.
The worst part of that was his personality disorder.
Yeah, I suspect that Simon has a multiple personality disorder.
I an on the ssage app, he is speaking like we were very close brothers but in real life—in the Academy, it was sure different!
Most of the ti, he averts his eyes from him as if embarrassed by the ssages he sent the day before! There were also those tis where he hesitated to speak to , making us awkward monts!
Are you gonna confess?!
Why are you embarrassed?
You don't have to be embarrassed Simon.
I'm the one getting second hand embarrassnt because of you!
"You won't pass the exam, moron." I sent that ssage but an error ssage appeared.
Ah, I forgot there is no network in this place.
Whatever.
He will see it after.
"Who is that, daddy?" Annabelle asked, pointing at Simon's embarrassing picture.
"He is…" I switched off my phone and stroked Annabelle's hair. "Your distant uncle, I guess…"
