Chapter 912: You Girls Go Play, Daddy Needs To Work
(MC POV)
Unfortunately for Lilith and Diao Chan, Lilia kept insisting that I take a look at the situation before deciding to dismiss her, going so far as to press her head on the floor while sobbing pathetically.
She was pleading so desperately that I decided to acquiesce to her request, despite Lilith and Diao Chan pouting at me for it. Obviously the mood for sexy times was gone so we didn't do it either, though I did give each of them a deep kiss that made them forget where they were for a few moments as compensation.
No, I did not decide to help Lilia just because I took pity on her, though I can't deny that I definitely sympathised with her current plight. I decided to at least give that place a look since I could easily just move her territory around without anyone noticing which removes the possibility of Lilia selling us out later on.
Omniscience did not show me that as a definite future but it was one of the possible futures that I could see happening.
Obviously I'm not so insensitive that I would leave without warning so I had everyone gather in my room to let them know of my decision first.
And because I did not tell them about the nature of this gathering, all of them had the wrong idea of what I had in mind. That's why aside from those who were present in the bath, everyone else was dressed in rather provocative and revealing garments.
Even Brendan was wearing a translucent robe that really suited him for some reason.
"Eh… Then how long will Master be away for?" Lian Li asked, teary eyed and grasping the hem of her really revealing nightgown.
I shifted my gaze to Lilia who was currently uncomfortable bearing the brunt of my disciples' ire right now.
She poked her fingers together, "Umm… I believe it shouldn't be more than a week in regards to this World's time…"
Now it was my turn to frown at her as I wondered why it would take that long.
"There… There are quite a lot of Worlds, Father… And time is relative too…" She explained quickly.
Not if I have any say in that, I came here to have a good time with my disciples and so far, things have not been off to a good start. Damned if I was going to let some stupid fight between these kids ruin our vacation.
I shook my head, "I'll be gone for a day at most. Just a quick hop in there and I'll come back as soon as I'm done."
If Lilia was surprised by my proclamation, she did not show it.
Instead, she merely nodded her head like I didn't just cut down her estimated time significantly. I guess she understood that manipulating time was not off the table for this trip.
"Should we come with you, Master?" Manami suggested, intentionally lifting the sides of her nightgown to show me a scandalous amount of skin. Not that it was hiding much to begin with since it was made of a diaphanous material anyway.
Lilith answered for me, "I'd recommend against that. Some of my siblings are quite the jealous types and also quite discriminatory against mortals. I am most definitely outside of the standard and so is sister Lilia. When I say that there's gods out there who would commit genocide to get a glimpse of Daddy, I was not joking. If they were to know of your relationship with Daddy, they might just try to do some drastic things."
Hmph… If they dare to do so… I think I can live with a few less of these beings running around the universe.
As though hearing my thoughts, Lilith added, "Of course Daddy would protect all of you from their wrath, but most, if not all, of the Universe still remembers Daddy as the Origin who does not care about anything that happens in the Universe. They would believe that there won't be any consequence in trying to kill you all in front of Daddy and I doubt any of you would want Daddy to deal with something like that?"
Ugh… I guess watching me kill my own supposed children wouldn't be a good sight for my disciples either. Good thing it's Cai Hong's bedtime so she isn't here to hear this.
My disciples agreed as well, though they were obviously not happy admitting it.
That was my cue to start patting their heads to comfort them.
"I'll be back before you know it. This is meant to be a vacation for you guys anyway so don't worry and just have fun, alright?"
Tsuki pouted, "It's not as fun if Aniue isn't here though… Our first day was already ruined by that stupid guy too…"
I grimaced, "That was my fault, I apologise for that."
"Eh? I'm not blaming Aniue for that! It was our fault to begin with!" Tsuki denied quickly.
The rest of the girls also nodded their heads vehemently in agreement, each of them adding their own assurances that they did not think I was responsible for Cain's manipulation.
"Ah… Is that why brother Cain was made to fade? He tried to use his powers on these mortals?" Lilia asked.
"More because he overstepped his bounds," I explained.
It wasn't really a lie. I was prepared to let him go but the real reason why he was Ended was because he disturbed Iris, not that the person responsible would admit to that since he wasn't even worth her remembering his existence.
Still a fact that Iris Ended him because he wanted to obtain something that he did not have the capability to receive.
Judging by the looks on everyone's faces, I think my disciples got the wrong idea that I was the one who erased his existence. I didn't see a reason to correct them either so I just left it at that, it's not like he exists anymore anyway.
"As I said, I'll be back in a day at most, so just relax ok? Lilith will stay here with you guys as well, as will Shiori and Akari," I instructed.
I will also be leaving Xun Guan behind since I don't want to risk more than I have to. There's no telling what would happen to her if I were to bring her out there.
Lilith swivelled to face me, "Eh?! Why am I not going with Daddy?!"
"Just in case someone like Cain or Lilia shows up here again, I want you to help me take care of that while I'm gone, ok? Lian Li only just ascended recently so she's not able to fight a cosmic being on even grounds yet."
"Nnnnnggg… But I wanna stay with Daddy… My bath…"
"I'll continue that when I come back, ok?"
The demoness puffed her cheeks at me, "Unnn… Understood, Daddy…"
I patted her head, "I'll be back soon. Now, all of you just relax, alright?"
With a smile and wave that my disciples returned, I took Lilia and Iris by their hands and teleported out of this World, setting off to her territory.
It'll just be a quick trip there, shouldn't be too hard.
