8 Ch. 8

--Zach POV--

I bet you're wondering how I got here. In all honesty, I have the same question as you. First, I got drunker than a skunk and called who I didn't know at the time was Tsunade fat. Second, damn she can pack a wallop but that's not even the craziest part. All this time I started to believe that they were just cosplayers. I was just gonna settle for the memory, but it turns out they're real! The whole Naruto world is real, and I slept with what is practically the princess of Konoha. But what took the icing on the cake and just made my mind blue screen of death was when I figured out that I knocked her up. I'm going to be a father, and I don't even have my shit together! I'm not ready for this, I didn't ask for this!

I could feel eyes boring into me, I felt like a rabbit cornered in its den and a fox was staring me down for dinner. Looking at where I felt the gaze I saw Tsunade staring at me, it looked like she could see right into my soul. Seeing the beautiful woman staring at me, awaiting my response I felt a strong determination set into me. I squared my shoulder and puffed up and looked her straight in the eyes.

Zach: "I will take responsibility if you'll let me that is. I hope that we can get to know each other, and maybe even love each other one day. But I want to be in our kid's life, I want to show them the love that I had growing up. So please Tsunade, give me a chance."

With those words from the heart, I saw Tsunade visibly relax and gave me a smile that would knock anyone on their feet. It made me more confident in my decision and excited for the future. But before we could get caught up in lovey-dovey googly eyes with each other. Dionysus gave a cough interrupting the moment, damn buzzkill.

Dionysus: "Yes, I am a buzzkill but there is more I need to tell you in particular Zach. But first, let me invite someone who wants to talk to you."

With a clap, two other people appeared in the room. A man and a woman appeared in the room. The man looked strong and sturdy, but the best way to describe him is deformed. The woman who was next to him was absolutely gorgeous. My eyes were wide and I could feel myself drooling. Before I could stare more I felt a very sharp pain on my side and I looked to see Tsunade suddenly there giving me the death stare. I took a big gulp and nodded to her, moving my hand to hers that was pinching me and interlaced my fingers in hers to keep me grounded. That did not go unnoticed by the gorgeous woman who's laughter sounded like bells. How the smile on her.. Before I could finish the thought, Tsunade squeezed my hand hard, knocking my back out of the daze.

Deformed Man: "Aphrodite please leash your divinity so we can talk to him."

Aphrodite: "Hephaestus you're no fun."

Hephaestus: "I promise we will have fun later, remember your promise. I've made some new toys to test on you."

I could see her visibly shudder in anticipation. Hephaestus turned to me and gave me a lop-sided smile.

Hephaestus: "Hello Zach, I must say I've been wanting to meet you. Thank you for doing all those commissions for me before you went to jail. I'm part of the reason why this inn is open, I got Dionysus interested in Naruto and built this place. I didn't want to use heavenly metal for my hobby and wanted to see what some of the best craftsmen nowadays could make. Let me tell you, you did not disappoint hence the multiple orders! So let me explain my blessing that I gave you. You'll have a comprehensive understanding of whatever you want to build. With both of our blessings, you've gained a quasi divinity pool, that makes you more or less a demi-god minus the strength. Think of it more like a large chakra pool. Speaking of chakra, unfortunately, you will not be able to use it due to the fact of your age. Even if you were to awaken your chakra veins it would be a minuscule amount and really wouldn't be able to use jutsus.

Aphrodite: "Quit with the theatrics. Just give it to him straight."

Hephaestus: "I'll give it to you straight later. Where was I? Oh yeah, the divine-pool will be able to charge enchantments, unfortunately, the blessing doesn't include enchantments that's more of Hecate's domain. So any questions?"

Digesting all that he had said has got my head spinning. A lot of great gifts, the only concern I have is being so squishy per se in the Naruto world. But then again Might Guy doesn't have any chakra. I squeezed Tsunade's hand to ground myself with all the information that has been passed down to us. I looked over to her and saw a reassuring smile, and looked over to see Shizune checked out on information overload. Poor girl, no one to keep her grounded but this talk mainly concerns me and Tsunade anyways. With that, I knew that we'd make it somehow, so in sync, me and Tsunade both nodded our heads at the same time to them.

Aphrodite: "Awww so cute, look at that! Both of you are well on your way to loving each other! I've got something for this occasion."

With that, the goddess glided over to us and placed her hand on Tsunade's belly and we saw a pink glow surround her belly and before we knew it, the glow disappeared. Aphrodite then glided back to the other gods.

Dionysus: "So, now that all the explanations and questions are out of the way. This room now belongs to you two free of charge. Think of it as the portal room between worlds. If and when you decide to move from the village/town where the inn is located you can designate a plot of land that you own and it will be transported there instead. So with that my new friends, it's time for us to leave. You can talk to us any time you're in the inn. "

With that Dionysus gave a small bow, Hephaestus gave a quick salute and Aphrodite gave a small wave before Hephaestus grabbed her ass and they disappeared.

We stayed quiet for an hour just lost in our thoughts. Shizune finally came to during that time frame but stayed quiet still processing everything. I felt movement next to me and looked over at Tsunade.

Tsunade: "I want to see these stories of my world, please."

I smiled at her wondering how much of the anime and manga was weird and nodded to her. I went over to my laptop and brought it back to the bed. Laying in the middle of it I placed the laptop on my lap, and Tsunade laid down on one side of me and Shizune came over to the other. Like that we spent the next couple days binge-watching the anime and the movies followed by the grind that was reading the manga. I do have to say when I was at my lowest these two came and found me. Having the fire to turn my life around I made a promise to myself and the Gods that blessed me. I will do everything I can to make these two happy and safe.
