Today, after having some breakfast with my lovely family, Evan and Amiphossia approached me with a request.

"Hm? What is it, Ami, Evan?" I asked.

"M-Mother-in-law… Kireina-sama…! P-Please, I think it is time for my awakening…" muttered Evan.

"Awakening? What are you talking about?"

"T-The awakening…! Kireina-sama… you don't remember?" he asked. 

"Evan, you need to be clearer with mom… also why are you quivering? Don't fear my mom, she is a nice lady!" said Amiphossia.

"Ami, what does he want?"

"Sigh… Mommy, you still are at fault in here for forgetting something so important! Evan's awakening into a Hero! You can do it, can't you?" she said.

"Oh right! I think I really did forget… Though I was planning on doing it whenever he hit a progression wall, he was advancing so smoothly that I thought it would happen very far in the future" I said.

"W-Well, you see. Since I became a Chaos Human, my strength had increased exponentially, and so did the EXP required to level up. This is why I could use the boost from a Hero Awakening" said Evan.

"That's right, it is just as he said, mommy," said Amiphossia, waving her snake tail while patting Evan's silky blonde hair.

I suspect that there is a hidden motive in this… Does Amiphossia want a strong offspring from him so she wants him to awaken and inherit that strength into my grandchildren?

Well, she knows that she cannot do that for now. But she seems oddly enthusiastic.

Ah… the thought about having a grandchild is really beautiful… I wonder how would it look? Evan is quite handsome, and Amiphossia is astonishingly beautiful, it would be the most charismatic, dazzling, and strong baby ever born, that is for sure.

"Mom?" asked Amiphossia.

"Ah! Sorry, I was… daydreaming about… err, food"

"But mom, we just ate breakfast," said Amiphossia.

"Yeah, I suppose your little sibling in my belly is always hungry, hehe… A-Anyways… Sure, Evan. Come here" I said, extending my hand to Evan's.

"A-Ah, thank you very much, mother-in-law-sama," said Evan.

"But do I really have to take your hand, Kireina-sama?" asked Evan again.

"Yes, don't be shy. I won't bite, fufu" I said, meticulously to scare him a little. 

"T-That's not really reassuring…" muttered Evan.

"Just go! Don't be a chicken!" said Ami, pushing his back towards me.

Evan fell over my lap, he was still young, resembling a boy in his late teens, he was particularly smaller compared to me, though I was not a giant.

"Ugh… Ahh...!"

"Hm? Is something wrong? Do you like my thighs so much?" I asked.

"Hehe, Evan is so fun to tease… Right, mom?" said Amiphossia.

"Ah! N-No! It is not that… S-Sorry! …Amiphossia, did you just admit that you like to tease me…? Sigh…" said Evan, standing up and giving me his white, rosy hands, they were filled with scars that seemed to contrast with his smooth and beautiful skin.

"Oops, sorry… Fufufu, you're just way too cute, Evan-kun" said Amiphossia.

Evan kept sighing as I grabbed his hands.

"Hmm… how do I even do this… Perhaps just willing it?"

There was not any command or skill, and I was not allowed to open my Blessing of the System Master, where my Epic Skill and the ones I 'stole' were stored.

How can I even awaken someone whenever I want if the thing that I need to activate for that respective task is locked in a place that I cannot access yet!

However, just as I began to think about other methods, Evan's yellow tattoos, which appeared after he evolved into a Chaos Human, shined brightly.

"Hm?"

"Ah! Is it working? My body…! I'm overflowing with energy…!" shouted Evan.

Hm, I think that I somehow managed to do it.

Perhaps I needed to 'will it' and that was it? It was rather a simple task then.

Ding!

[Epic User: Evan Godfrey, The Resplendent Knight] has awakened into [The Hero of Shining Skies]!]

[Epic User: Evan Godfrey, The Hero of Shining Skies] has awakened into [The Spirit Slime Hero of Dazzling & Shining Skies]!]

"Oh? You awakened twice! It seems that one was your original one, and the other was caused by your evolution into a Chaos Human. Congratulations boy"

Evan's appearance has not changed much, but he had become two to three centimeters taller, and his muscles suddenly bulged and then tightened back to normal. His hair became long, reaching his shoulders, and his aquamarine eyes gained golden sparkles.

The armor he was wearing was the one given to him by his Epic Skill, so when he awakened, it evolved with him and became a Phantasmal Class Armor set. It was completely white, with several angelic-like decorations such as small, feathered wings… He was quite the dazzling kid, the perfect image of 'The Light Hero'.

The item he had obtained after killing his brother, the [Divine Claymore of Piercing Heavens; Durandal] had also evolved into a Phantasmal Class Item and held great power within. It had even developed a soul of its own, which named itself 'Durandal'.

"My Master, Evan-sama. I shall live to serve you, my wielder" said Durandal. Its voice was warm and motherly, like that of a mature woman who saw Evan as her child.

"Y-You can talk now…?! I did not expect this… but thanks! Durandal, I'm counting in you!" said Evan, his eyes sparkling with excitement about a new companion who was his sword itself.

"Hmm… is Durandal a woman? She sounds like a mother" I asked.

"A woman…? Hmm" muttered Amiphossia.

"Well, I am but a sword, I do not possess a gender… but if my voice resembles that of a woman, and if it would be easy for Evan-sama to refer me as one, I do not mind being called a woman in that regard," said Durandal, nonchalantly.

"Well, it's better to put on rules immediately then, Durandal! Evan is my beloved darling; you better don't think anything funny with him. You heard me?" said Amiphossia, leaking her powerful Aura that contained Divine Energy, which seemed to even intimidate a Phantasmal Class Item such as Durandal.

"A-Ah, and who might you be my lady?" asked Durandal, trying to endure the pressure.

"I am Amiphossia, daughter of Kireina, my mother, and the Eldest Princess of the Dark Moon Empire. I am Evan's future wife, and I am not planning on him having anymore! So, you better act like what you are, a sword. Alright?" said Amiphossia, her scarlet eyes gleaming in an eerie light.

"Y-Yes… I understand, Amiphossia-sama. I am but a sword, I would never try such things. I only seek Evan-sama safety and his wellbeing" said Durandal.

Amiphossia suddenly changed her intimidating expression to that of happiness.

���I see! That is good then! Let us protect Evan-kun together, Durandal" she said.

"That was quite the quick change in attitude…" muttered Durandal. 

"You'll get used to it, Durandal. But I love Amiphossia nonetheless," said Evan.

"I am glad that Evan-sama has plans for his future so well thought and planned. I hope that one day I can see the fruit of your love" said Durandal.

"Y-You mean… an offspring? I-I think I'm too young for that yet!" shouted Evan.

"Uwah! So Durandal also understands it! Perhaps I should not have been so rude… Evan-kun, when will you bless me with a child~?" asked Amiphossia.

I could not stand there and let them keep talking about this subject.

"Amiphossia! Although a grandchild would be one of the most beautiful things that could happen in my life, there is no need to rush it! You're too young!" I shouted.

"But mom! I want a baby!" said Amiphossia.

"N-No is no! I know that your body had already matured enough to be able to have children… but… respect Evan's feelings! That is right, he needs to consent first!" I said, looking for reasons.

"Huh? I see… Well… Okay, I guess. Though it's hard at times… to resist my instincts, mom" muttered Amiphossia.

Hmm… perhaps applying human values in monsters and demi-humans is not right… Although Amiphossia is not even a year old, she had already matured fully into adulthood, her instincts are calling for her to reproduce as well… but. Ah, it feels weird to think about it. I will try my best, but if things cannot be contained anymore… I suppose I will let her do it.

I cannot control my child as if she were my thing, she has her own life I suppose.

"But you are still quite immature in your mind, Amiphossia, you need to develop your mentality first! Are you sure that you would be a responsible mother for your child? You need to know all of that first before you can even think about it! Are you sure that you would not be flustered at the time of actually doing it? Are you sure that you would not regret it later? There is a lot of things that you need to consider first. You are my precious daughter, not an animal, Amiphossia. I love you very much, but you have to take into count these things first" I said.

"Huh… I suppose so… But… aren't a lot of my aunts quite immature as well? Why don't you apply that to them as well?!" she said.

"A-Ah, well, they may act immature sometimes… like Nephiana or Adelle, but they have already grown up women that have developed mentally… Nephiana and Adelle had trained a lot with the rest of your aunts… perhaps you should take some classes with them?" I said, without trying to make things worse.

"Oh... Okay then! I will learn until I can become the best mother! So just you wait, Evan-kun!" said Amiphossia, she had completely forgotten about Evan's consent in this regard.

"Err… Amiphossia, I would like to wait a few years… there isn't any rush for this to happen. Why don't we keep knowing each other first? It has been nice; we should take this smoother" asked Evan.

"E-Evan-kun…? R-Really? I am so glad that you are happy with me…! B-But why do you say that? You do not want a child…? You don't?" asked Amiphossia.

"Huh? No, no! I do! I do want to have an offspring and a descendant but-"

"Then it's fine! Alright, just you wait! In a few months, I will become the best mother our child could have ever asked for!" shouted Amiphossia, proudly.

"T-There is no way to make her change her mind it seems" muttered Evan.

"Evan-sama, I wish you the best of lucks," said Durandal, as she went to sleep.

"Huh? Durandal? Don't leave me alone with this!" shouted Evan, glaring at the long and white-colored blade.

"So, Evan-kun… What would you prefer, a boy or a girl? Fufu"

"Amiphossia…? Weren't you going to wait?"

"Yeah! But for now, we could talk about our plans for the not-so-far future!"

"I-I… I do not mind, a boy to teach him my swordsmanship, or a little girl to treat as my princess. It is fine either way" said Evan. 

"Ah! You are so nice, my Evan-kun! I would personally be fine with either way, but a little boy would be the best! Perhaps I should begin making clothes for both cases… oh! And what if they are two?! Kyaah~! I cannot wait, mommy! Help me out!" said Amiphossia.

"A-Amiphossia, you're taking everything too far! Calm down! I am your mother and you should obey me when I tell you to take things slowly! Do as Evan said and develop your relationship further. There is a lot of time to think those things, there is no need to live in a rush…" I said.

I think I should tell that to myself as well, I am quite proactive about what I've done in less than a year.

"But mom…!" protested Amiphossia.

"A-Amiphossia, please understand… or… I will call Nesiphae! And your mother doesn't take a 'but' as an answer!" I said, using Nesiphae to intimidate Amiphossia a bit.

"Eeeh…? No, she is such a boomer sometimes…" muttered Amiphossia.

"Who is a boomer, Amiphossia?" said Nesiphae's voice, she had just come out of the door, holding on her ax, which was covered in the monster's blood that she hunted each day.

"AH! M-Mother! N-Nothing… Hehe" muttered Amiphossia.

"Kireina, what did she do now…?" asked Nesiphae.

"She is going all crazy for a child with Evan… I've told her multiple times that she needs to wait a bit at least," I said.

"Well, although we had you quite quickly in our relationship… Both I and your mother were already mature adults, and we were responsible for our acts. You must first think and study carefully what you are getting into, Amiphossia. I don't want you to regret your decisions one day" said Nesiphae, who sat down on the throne's stairs. She grabbed me with her arms and sat me down in her tail's lap.

"T-That's right! Just as your mother said… We love you, and we just want the best for you, Amiphossia" I added while being cuddled by Nesiphae's tail.

"Y-Yes, it's just as your mothers say, Amiphossia. I also love you very much, but let's take it slow… so we can love each other… even more" said Evan, trying to find words that could appeal to my daughter.

"W-Well, okay… I understand, fine… Let's do it slowly then, Evan-kun… If you are at my side, I think it is enough for now… I love you as well" she said, kissing the boy on the lips. She had quickly shapeshifted into a similar size to him, so they could comfortably show love to each other.

"For now, let's have some distractions to hold onto those 'instincts', let's go to the dungeon with my party members and your party as well, it will be fun to level up some more. I also need to try out my new skills and magic" said Evan.

"Hehe, alright! But let us pack some lunch as well!" said Amiphossia, as the two lovebirds left the throne room.

Parenting is really quite hard. But it also brings a sensation of fulfillment when your child finally understands that what you're trying to do is for its best…

"I'm glad things didn't end up in her protesting," I said.

"Don't worry, my love, I am here to help you out as well. It is the daughter of both of us after all," said Nesiphae, as she caressed my hair.

"Thanks for being with me, Nesiphae"

"Hehe… I'm also grateful for having met you back then… Remember when you were a small butterfly? You were so cute! Fufufu" she said, recalling some months ago.

"Ah! Do not make me remember that… Do you know that when I became a humanoid, it was very hard to get used to this body? It was all so weird…"

"Fufufu. I cannot imagine it! What would you had done if you had met me like a snake instead of a Lamia?" asked Nesiphae.

"Well, I would have perhaps made you join me if you were nice enough!" I said.

"Hoh? I think you would have just eaten me!" said Nesiphae, playfully using her tail to rub on me.

"Haah… Well, that never happened… Don't think of me like that… Haha" I laughed.

"Okay, okay~ I wonder how my mother would react if she were to see our daughter" she muttered.

"I'm sure that she would be happy, you are a wonderful mother. She would be proud of you," I said.

"You think so? Hehe…" she muttered.

I spent the rest of the afternoon with Nesiphae in the throne room, afterwards, we had a large dinner with everyone, it was a nice and relaxing day.
