Chapter 238: Short Adventure.
These two were already settled, so we did plan on leaving this Dimension; even giving access and telling them how to find and enter Home. However, Celia, noticing an extremely tiny bit of Mana usage, decided to stay for a bit longer. Apart from us, there aren’t any other beings capable of utilizing Mana or Divinity in this Dimension, you see.
Clearly, something or someone, a Monster, an Ancient Beast, like Xinolily’s original form, etc. felt our presence, and hid. If it wasn’t for Celia being Mana itself, no one else would have felt the stealthy usage of Mana. Either way, while we don’t have any enemies left, those space horror things could still be around; so figuring out what is down here…is probably wise.
Lyrica: “W-wait! Celia isn’t with us, nor is Guanyu…” She voiced in a panic, throwing her arms and legs around randomly, trying to swim back up to the surface.
Vulely: “So? I don’t quite reach their level of strength, but that is by choice. Even the weakest member of our group has no outside match.” I replied with an unbothered shrug.
Frances: “Is this not dangerous still, Vulely?” She asked with a nervous tone, seemingly not bothered by her daughter fruitlessly trying to drag both of them out of the water.
Vulely: “Honestly, I think that there is less than a 0.00000000000000000001% chance of there being danger, let alone either of us dying. Any Higher Being that chooses to hide in a Dimension without Magic or others like them… are injured, or weak by default.” I answered with a lecturing tone, mostly for Lyrica’s ears.
Lyrica: “…”
Frances: “…”
Lyrica: “I won’t try to run or swim away, I swear! How are we supposed to…uh…move underwater?” She added with a tone of defeat.
Vulely: “Do so as if you’re flying or walking.” I replied with a yawn, not even a single drop of ocean water (thanks to my privilege of Divinity) entering my mouth.
Dismissing their fears won’t screw me over, I’m quite confident about that. Although you could easily say that my lack of being able to see into the future is…making me more careless, I’d also disagree with that notion. For one, without caring about destroying all suspense of this narration, you’re experiencing it, you know?
As such, it all already happened, past tense; meaning that I lived to express the tale of my dearest’s life! Hm? Why is it just me and the lesb incest couple? Celia, after doing all that cooking, is on a break. And since I’m a good, loving wife…taking on this task in her stead is what I should be doing! Just ignore how I want to take her to bed once this is dealt with…
Lyrica: “Vulely, you’re swimming like normal, though… Can’t we do that instead? Flying or walking in the water feels…very off.” She asked with a sigh, standing in the water as if she was on solid ground.
Vulely: “No.” I denied instantly.
Lyrica: “Why?!” She exclaimed in shock from my quick, refusing reply.
Vulely: “It’s an advance method for Higher Beings. If I taught it to you both right now, you’d just sink to the very bottom of the ocean within seconds.” I answered with a deadpan expression and tone.
Lyrica: “(~OAO)”
