75 Party, Ambassadors, Children and Wine?
No! I tell you two, I am an adult!" Miruliru tries to explain her age to the kids for the third time. "And I am the ambassador for the Path!"
"You don't look like an adult." -Sister
"Is this a game? We can pretend to be very adult too!" -Brother
"I don't pretend to be an adult!" Miruliru turns red and waves with her hands.
"Hah? I don't get it." -Brother
"I think she means that she is pretending to be a child." -Sister
"Why would anybody pretend to be a child?" -Brother
"Because you are an adult?" -Sister
"Why should an adult pretend to be a child." The boy looks disturbed at Miruliru.
"Urgh. That's.... You will understand once you are old enough!" Miruliru smiles and nods at her wonderful solution to the situation.
"She took the easy way out..."
"It's true... only an adult would say that! And there go my dreams of making a cute childhood friend for my first experiences with the other gender."
The girl pats her brother's shoulder.
"It's okay. Little sister will find someone for you. Maybe the quintuplets are willing to help out."
"By the Path! If I had known this I would have refused the job." Miruliru stares at the ceiling with dead eyes.
"What's the Path?" The little girl in front of her asks with big eyes. Her brother, who tried to pick up Miruliru nods too with a questioning expression.
"We are trying to bring the rightful order between gods and mortals back to the multiverse. We firmly believe that the gods should be measured by the numbers of their believers. After all that's how religion should work." Miruliru gives a proud explanation.
"But what if a god with many believers gets trashed in a fight with someone who has just a few?" The boy raises his voice.
"Wha? Of course that wouldn't happen. If a god with much power would invest it in gathering believers, he should have always more than a god with less power." -Miruliru
"But dad trashed the evil overlords and nobody believed in him. Everyone believed in the evil guys and now everyone is happy that they are gone." -Sister
"The people fear daddy. Does that count too?" -Brother
"Of course it doesn't count if the people fear someone!" -Miruliru
"Yeah. This is complicated brother! Does that mean that mom is stronger than dad? Everyone says that she is a beautiful and gentle flower. Everyone loves her." -Sister
"Mom is surely stronger than dad! But I don't understand why she is called gentle by the people." -Brother
"Yes. Her whipping isn't gentle at all....." The little girl looks down to the floor and massages her butt.
"Whip...." Miruliru almost chokes on her drink.
"But that's nothing against grandmother!" -Brother
"Yes. Grandma is the strongest. Even mom and dad bow down to her. She nailed me heels over head naked on a wall and threw itching powder at me. It went on and on andon.... and then...." The cute little girl starts to tremble. "Bro. I will never again run around naked. Not even to defeat you in tower jumping."
The brother presses a tear out of his left eye. "Next time I will give you two seconds head start. If dad doesn't smack me into the floor first. My cheek still hurts from that time when I played with the mortals." The boy rubs his cheek.
"Who are your parents?" Miruliru arches an eyebrow at the two annoying kids.
"Daddy is the king of all gods! He is right there with Mr. Mawu! He told me to entertain you because you seemed lonely." The sister points at the king of Chimera and the guy waves back at them with a broad smile.
Bastard! Miruliru strangles him in her mind.
"And mom is the horned S&M Que... "*MUFU*
The little girl jumped at her brother and silenced him. "Pssst! What will you do if she hears you?"
Miruliru just stares at the horned woman behind the children. She was introduced as the Queen of Chimera earlier. Does that mean those two are the prince and the princess?
The Queen sneaked up on them a little while ago and started to listen from behind to the weird conversation.
"Aengus and Seria?" The woman smiles down at the kids.
Both of them turn around like clockworks. "Yes?" "Yes?"
"I think you two should go bed. We will have to talk tomorrow." -Queen
"Hiiiii. It was brother! HE tried to pick her up!" -Princess
"Sis! Is that all your brother is worth to you?" -Prince
"Bed. Now." -Queen
Miruliru feels a dangerous aura emanate from the woman and the two kids disappear with tears in their eyes. Miruliru can perfectly imagine this woman with a whip in her hand while tormenting some innocent victims.
"I am sorry. Children and their strange fantasies. Sometimes their imagination is running wild." The Queen smiles at Miruliru and she forces a smile onto her face.
"Ahahaha... . Children sure like it to create stories and the like. Everything gets blown out of proportion." Miruliru doesn't want to cause a conflict by offending the Queen.
"Don't you want to join our discussion group. We are talking about the possible strategies in attempting to duplicate Chimera." -Queen
Miruliru nods with a forced smile and follows the S&M Queen to the group of ambassadors.
