Chapter 2 - The Naive Hero and The Dependable Goddess Onee-san - Part 2
As Rei shifted his gaze away from her, the goddess can only sigh heavily and closed her eyes.
She's not angry at him, but the reason she closed her eyes is to inform Rei's wives that he is currently with her. It seem that they panicked when Rei suddenly went missing and all of them went in every corner of the world to search for him.
The goddess can only sigh again at how chaotic it become.
She's also to blame because she immediately went to prepare his treats the moment he said he's coming. She even altered the time in her domain before Rei arrived so that she can prepare in an hour while only 1 second passed in that world.
She should have felt something strange when she didn't hear anything prior about Rei wanting to return home from her former priestess or some of his wives.
After a few minutes, the goddess opened his eyes and said, 「I've already talked to them about you going back to your world. We knew that this moment will come so we already made some plans on how 」
「Really? I knew I can always count on all of you, Onee-chan.」
If it's another harem protagonist who said that, then he have already been badmouthed and told he's an idiot and the harem would be pulling their hair in irritation because of too much problem he's causing, but in Rei's case…...
「Ehehehe~ Anything for you, Rei-chan~ All you need to do is depend on Onee-chan, and everything will be alright~」
The goddess said it as if she did all the planning, taking all the credits. Of course, although he's naive, Rei knows that he also needs to show gratitude to his wives later.
『Hmm.. I will give them one cupcake each. But there's only 8 left, so as for the others... maybe I should now grant them babies because they were asking for it for a while now? I also missed playing with someone since although all of my daughters are still playing with me, I know that they were busy and only accompanying me to make me happy.』, Rei thought to himself.
His daughters mostly spend their time studying, because they want to become a dependable oneesan for Rei.
Although their roles seem to be somewhat reverse, but it's inevitable for his daughters to think of protecting him because their father is incurably naive. It seems to be related to his Divinity.
『Right. I wonder how much mom will be surprised when she find out that I already have 12 daughters? I hope she won't be jealous, because I remember when I asked mom I want a little sister, she said that I need to become an adult first, but now I already made many without mom….』
As Rei was thinking to himself, he suddenly heard the goddess muttering.
「Now then, I wonder how should we proceed with this...」
「Ah, Onee-chan. I forgot to tell you about the Runic Formations I wrote all over the floating city since yesterday.」
「What? So that was runes you were inscribing? I thought it was...」 The goddess was about to say 'a doddles of a child', but stop herself because she don't want to hurt Rei's feelings.
No one can blame her for thinking like that. She knew that it's the Intent that is the most important when inscribing or writing the runes, but in Rei's case, even though it looks like a doddle with some recognizable runes or words in it, it seems as if the universe even changed its logic just to make what Rei wants happen and only him can use that doddle runes of his.
『Anyway, I already saw him do the 'doodle' formation and materialize Mana Circle with doodle-like runes many times so I'm not surprised the Formation works, but I didn't thought what he was doing yesterday was really a Runic Formation. He always write on the wall whenever he's bored or playing so, I didn't find anything strange on it.』
「So how does this Formation you made works?」
「Oh, I made it with the intention of making the floating city appear on two different places at the same time. Like similar to our Omnipresence. I just need to set up some Formations on Earth for it to be completed. With this, we will not need to leave Is-kai and my wives will also be able to visit their family whenever they want.」
「What? That's amazing, Rei-chan. I'm sure it will surely work, since you're the one who made it. Your wives are really luck to have you as their man.」
Hearing that, Rei shook his head and said, 「No. I'm the one who's lucky to have you, my wives and the others onee-sans.」
「Really? Ehehehe~ Oneechan is happy to hear that~」 She said with joy visible on her face while rubbing her cheeks against Rei and squishing him in her hug, but added inwardly 『... Though I would even be more happier if you didn't mention those sluts.』
Making sure what she thought didn't appeared on her face, she pulled a bit away from their hug and made Rei face towards her.
「Alright, Rei-chan. After knowing your plan and what you did on your floating city. I think it's better for your family in Is-kai to remain there and wait until you established the link between the two worlds. But we will never be at ease if we let you go all by yourself, so it's decided that you will take your eldest daughters with you.」
The goddess and all of Rei's wives have already made some future plans for the time when he decided to go home. One of those is to have his three eldest daughters accompany him to have someone who will assist him on that world. This is also the reason why his daughters were busy and focus in their studies.
「Anyway, let's summon your daughters, who will accompany you, here right now.」
Rei just nodded and the goddess closed her eyes to inform Rei's wives of the plan and make the three daughters ready for the summon.
When she opened her eyes, she turned her attention at the wide space ahead of them and without even lifting a finger as this is her own domain which she can control however she like, a Summoning Circle with a diameter of two meters materialized on the floor.
The Mana Circle flashed and after a while, three figures appeared from it.
「Greetings, Father, Godmother.」
The Eldest Daughter greeted, representing the three of them while they all bowed.
The goddess just nodded while Rei, who's still on the goddess lap and embrace, wave at them eagerly, totally unbothered by the chaos he caused back at home. While his daughters are instead grateful that he's beyond harm's reach and readily let what happened go as they also don't have the heart to reprimand him.
Though they would still scold him very very gently to the point that he would just think of them sulking so that he wouldn't feel bad for worrying them.
That's just how precious and adorable Rei for them.
It must be the privilege of being the ultimate naive shota.
「Now then, I'm sure you three already know what to do once you arrive on Earth, right? And Rei-chan, although Onee-chan hates to separate with you, I now need to sent you back to earth. 」
「Un... I'm also sad, Onee-chan. But I promise I will visit you very very soon so wait for me, okay?」
「Of course! Onee-chan will look forward to it~」 Then she proceed to squish Rei in her hug while rubbing her cheeks against him once again.
The two of them then spend some time together along with Rei's three daughters which eventually turned into a few hours. Until the goddess finally decided to let Rei go.
── Standing near of a Teleportation with Rei three daughters on it, the goddess hugged Rei one last more and said,
「Rei-chan, don't forget your Onee-chan, okay?」
「What are you saying, Onee-chan? Of course I will never forget you. And it's not like we can't telepathically like usual, right. Also, I will only be going back to my world to meet with my family and friends there, and it's not like I'm staying there for good. Didn't I promise you that I will visit you again very very soon?」
Only after being reminded of that did the goddess felt slightly better and eventually let Rei go.
Rei then took his spot near his eldest daughter on the Teleportation Circle and his eldest held his hand like a mother who's making sure her child won't be lost.
「Bye bye, Onee-chan. See you later.」
Rei bade his farewell while waving his other hand and his daughters just slightly bowed their head.
Then they were engulfed by the flash of the Teleportation Circle.
