After taking their bath, Klaus inford Hanna that he would need the bow for another week. Hanna was more than happy to let him keep it. She was focusing on learning Arrow Molding first, so she didn't need the Skyhound Bow.
After that, Klaus went to speak with his mother.
"You're going to the moon, like the actual moon up there?" Klaus's mom asked, looking at him with a puzzled expression. "And you said Ohema is from there?" she added.
"Yes, Mom. Her sister needs my help, so I have to go and save her," Klaus replied.
"How cool! I wish I could go to the moon too." Contrary to what Klaus expected, her next words were quite unusual.
"Well, you can't go now since I don't know anything about that place. But you know —once I establish myself there, I'll take you on a vacation," Klaus said with a smile.
"You better," she said, straightening his shirt. "And please, try not to seduce your mother-in-law. I know you have a thing for them," she added with a wink.
"It was just a kiss, Mom," Klaus said, knowing that sohow, his mother had found out about his kiss with Cynthia Ross.
"Tell that to your mother-in-law," she laughed before gesturing for Ohema to co over. Ohema looked rather nervous, considering she had been keeping many secrets from her until recently.
"Why so gloomy, love? You've done nothing wrong. You just needed to figure things out, and now that you have, you didn't disappoint. Telling him was the best decision, and know that no matter who you turn out to be, I will always see you as my sweet daughter-in-law," Klaus's mom said, taking Ohema's trembling hands and pulling her into a hug.
Hearing those heartfelt words overflowed Ohema's emotions, and tears burst out, soaking her chest. It took her a few minutes to calm down.
Klaus's mom smiled at her for a mont. "You look much better in your own skin, though your hair could use so work." Find your next read at empire
Klaus could only smile, knowing she ant every word. Miriam and Hanna had beco her practice models for various hairstyles, and now that Ohema had joined the mix, he knew she would soon beco the third.
"Alright, we need to leave as soon as possible. I have to finish everything there so I can make it back in ti for the academy," Klaus said. With less than five weeks left, he still had so ti.
"By the way, how are you two going to the moon? Do you have a spaceship?" Klaus's mom asked. Ohema just smiled.
"While we do have ships capable of traveling to Earth and nearby planets, we don't need one for this. I can just open a space rift," Ohema replied.
"Wait, you've been to other planets?" Klaus asked.
"No, dummy. Only my mom and a few others have. But she said those planets are empty. Well, one of them has so inhabitants, but the rest are empty but habitable," Ohema said proudly, making it clear that her mother was not soone ordinary.
"That said, I'll just have to carry you high up and then open the rift," she added.
Klaus turned to Miriam. "Do you want to co too?"
She smiled and shook her head. "I'll stay with Mother. Just be careful up there."
"I will," Klaus promised. "Then I guess I'll see you all later." He began moving towards the door.
Ohema hugged Miriam and Klaus's mom before following him outside.
"Just hold on while I fly us up," she said, reaching for him. But before she could, lightning wings burst from Klaus's back, spreading wide like angel wings.
Klaus's mom's eyes widened as she looked at the wings in the hallway. Monts later, her expression softened with a proud smile as she watched Klaus glance back at her with an amused grin.
"I forgot you have wings," Ohema said before taking to the sky. "Try to keep up," she joked, but before she could finish, Klaus zood past her, crackling with lightning.
"Interesting," Ohema said, smiling as she increased her speed.
A few minutes later, Klaus and Ohema hovered above, gazing down at the gleaming cities below.
"Nice view," Klaus said.
"Indeed," Ohema replied. They were still within Earth's atmosphere, so Klaus could breathe normally.
"Is there anything I should know before eting your people?" Klaus asked. Ohema smiled before speaking.
"First, although you'll be able to breathe normally when we enter the habitable settlent, you won't be able to outside of it. You haven't ford your Saint core yet, so you can't breathe in outer space.
"But don't worry. With here, I'll just wrap my energy around you, which will allow you to breathe without any trouble.
"Also, the gravity on the moon is much stronger than on Earth, so you'll need to adapt to move freely. That being said, I know you're a monster, so I'm not worried."
Klaus smiled.
"As for my people, they're not unreasonable, but they are highly competitive. So might cause trouble for you. I don't mind if you put them in their place, but don't go overboard since you're a guest—the first human guest, actually.
"And be aware that there are a few young n up there who once hoped to make their wife. Since I plan on announcing that you're my partner, I hope they won't do anything foolish. But don't worry, with around, they won't dare.
"Oh, and the population up there is mostly won—about 70% are female. In my culture, won rule the household, so expect so envious looks. But with by your side, you won't get the chance to flirt with anyone."
"Already jealous?" Klaus grinned. "Don't worry, I'm only going there for two people," he said, smiling.
"Two people? Who are these two?" Ohema asked, curious.
"My Overlord who needs , and mother-in-law, of course," Klaus said, his smile widening.
"You... You better not try to charm my mother; she has a soft heart," Ohema pouted.
"Even better—it'll make my job easier," Klaus teased, making Ohema's pout deepen.
"Whatever... I doubt she'd fall for a youngster like you," Ohema muttered.
"Well, her lovely daughter fell for on the first day, so who's to say she wouldn't?" Klaus grinned. "Anyway, we should get going. I have an Overlord waiting for ."
Ohema nodded and waved her hand. A purple rift suddenly burst open, revealing the void beyond. Klaus's eyes narrowed as he stared into it.
"How cool," he muttered. His eyes gaze into the dark purple depth that has appeared as if trying to see if he can look through. Ohema smiled, watching him.
"You can do the sa once you beco a Transcendent," Ohema said, noticing the gleam in Klaus's eyes. She could tell he longed for the power to open such a rift.
"Let's go." With that, Ohema wrapped her energy around Klaus, and they vanished into the rift, which closed behind them.
In a field made of pure white grasses where a few ladies with beautiful features could be seen harvesting so strange-looking oranges, the space above them cracked, and two people erged.
They imdiately recognized the lady, but when their eyes landed on Klaus, their expressions changed. Suddenly, so powerful aura could be felt moving toward the white-orange field.
