Chapter 680 - Carefree Times

FLASH!

As Veronica and her wives ate a picnic, a large rupture in space time emerged, as a Death Gate, formed out primarily from Death Attribute Divine Energy, opened in front of them.

From within, a cute Arachne girl emerged, with her lower half being that of a large and metallic black spider. Her upper half looked faintly like Veronica used to look like before all her physical changes through her evolutions as Supreme Goddess and so on.

The little girl's crimson-red eyes shone cutely, as her long wine-colored hair waved around. She wore an adorable black and red dress and brought some more food for her family.

"Mommy, I'm late! Sorry…"

"Ah, Kuro-chan! I was wondering where you could be, my dear little treasure…" said Veronica, as she hugged her little, well, not so little anymore, daughter.

"Mama! Sorry for being late! I was with my friends having a hunting trip to the Dungeon… And we ended staying there eating what we hunted, the minutes went by and I forgot that the picnic was at this hour… S-Sorry!" apologized Kuro.

"Don't worry about it! You don't really have to bother with your old mother, I am glad you're having fun with your friends, dearie." Said Veronica, petting her daughter's head and kissing her forehead.

"Come eat with us now, Kuro-chan… Ah, are you hungry? You just said you ate…" said Anna.

"Kuro-chan always has stomach for more food, right?" asked Aqua.

"Come sit at our side." Said Shade.

"Hello everyone! Sure, I am pretty hungry, despite having eaten like four whole divine beasts! Hehe, I can absorb the food I eat instantly, so I am always up for more." Said Kuro with a cheeky smile. She sat down between Veronica and Shade, and Anna gave her a bowl with rice and fish. Incidentally, aside from inheriting many things from her mother, Kuro-chan also liked this dish.

"Hmm~ This one looks tasty!" she said, as she began to quickly devour the entire bowl only using shop sticks. The salty fish and the delicious and fluffy rice, which was also warm and had a certain mild flavor of sweetness to it all combined together into a delicious dish.

"Here, my dear." Veronica said, giving Kuro a flavorful herbal tea.

"Phew, this was good…" sighed Kuro, as she filled her stomach for a bit and finished the bowl in an instant, drinking some tea to calm herself down.

"How has the development of your divine realm been?" wondered Veronica.

"Oh! It has been doing fine. The divine realm is expanding and there is a strong death attribute than ever. I guess unlike you mommy I am mainly maining this attribute. It feels like the purest form of my own power. The entire divine realm is like in here a bit, although the place is obviously smaller. Though for being a Great Goddess, the System said my Divine Realm is around one hundred times bigger than the average." Said Kuro.

"O-One hundred times bigger?!" asked Anna.

"That's a lot! my Divine Realm is not even that big!" said Aqua.

"Incredible… to be expected of our beloved Kuro-chan." Said Shade. She saw Kuro as her little daughter as well, so she was proud of her.

"Hehe, I am a bit talented, I guess! But I like the life we are having now… After the big war, I can finally say I've been living my life better and to the fullest. It feels like I've grown a lot in this last half a year." Said Kuro.

"I can tell, I still remember when you were my tiny little girl, now you're a big and adult girl…" sighed Veronica. After the time skip that happened after defeating Hekaton, Kuro grew up 15 more years, maturing and becoming a big girl. She was already in her mid-adolescent years and would soon become a young adult.

"Hehe, those 15 years felt more like a long dream, so I couldn't tell if I enjoyed them thoroughly, but we did a good mix of training and relaxing back then, but now, things are finally catching up to everyone and we can all finally relax and have a good time. It feels nice, honestly." Said Kuro.

"I am so happy that you think like that, Kuro-chan…" sighed Veronica.

"Although… Samsara and his bullies might be close by, the time dilation of the divine realm is very big, which gives us a lot of time to prepare and relax." Said Anna

"Right… those thugs. I am still training diligently every day so we can defeat them and live the peaceful life you want, mommy… I will make sure to make them regret it." said Kuro.

"Relax, relax. Things are fine for now. You should leave everything to me and Ervas, we are preparing a lot, and we got many aces below our sleeve, and even more to come. Even if the difference in strength is clear, there are roundabouts and strategies we'll take." Said Veronica, her crimson-red eyes shone with an incredible sharpness that someone that meet her dorky self would never imagine from her.

"Yeah! We got this! Erm… Planning and strategizing! Yeah, that." Said Aqua while nodding. She was still a slime, so her thoughts were often dispersed across her body and therefore, she was "slow" sometimes.

"Indeed, you don't have to worry, Kuro. We have this. We will do everything we can to protect the peaceful life you're enjoying so much." Said Shade.

"Leave this to the adults, dear." Said Anna

"Everyone… Thank you… B-But I also want to help out! So I'll do my best." Said Kuro.

"There's no way around it when this girl decides what to do." Sighed Veronica

"Ah! Look, we got some pies I had baked, here, let's enjoy them together." Said Anna.

Anna began to serve some delicious fruit pies which were filled with sweet cream and fruit pieces, they were colorful and incredibly tasty looking. Kuro's mouth began to water after seeing this.

"Ah! I love fruit pies made by auntie Anna!" said Kuro.

The family enjoyed the day as they ate to their heart's content. For a little bit, they simply wanted to enjoy life as it was.
