"I am Dark, the silent shadow of the night, the ultimate life form!" He thrust his right hand to the side while gazing into the mirror . "He who breathes the moon, he who—"

"What are you doing?"

Blus.h.i.+ng furiously, Dark turned toward his now-open door at lightning speed, where Myriad stood, smirking .

"So, the great and mighty Leaf is the shadow of the night, the ultimate life form," she said sarcastically, then chuckled . She made an exaggerated motion, placing her hand on her heart . "He who breathes the moon!" She burst into laughter as Dark slammed the door in her face . "Ow! I was just kidding . "

"Go away, you bird brain," he snapped .

"Don't be like that," Myriad said . "I'll even call you Dark-kun like in the manga you keep reading . "

Dark said nothing as he laid back on his bed, annoyed . Selkie opened the locked door, letting the thunderbird in, marching toward the chuuni .

"Are you really going to the culture festival dressed like that?" Selkie said . "A Pokémon t-s.h.i.+rt and jeans? Really Dark?"

Myriad dove on top of Dark, knocking the wind from his lungs .

"What's a Pokémon?" she asked .

Selkie sighed, plucking the monster girl off him with a single hand .

"That's not the point . "

"The lord of the dark wears what he wants," Dark said .

"Even a s.h.i.+rt from Earth? Did you not want to forget—"

"Let's just go before I fall asleep from your nagging," Dark interrupted, gaining a comical snarl from the ent.i.ty .

"And this is why you'll be single forever," Selkie said, then held up a hand to interrupt Myriad . "Don't you even dare remind me, rapist . "

Dark hopped off the bed, dialing up a cab company .

"And text Clyde," Selkie said .

"No, I want to surprise him," Dark said .

"No duels please," Selkie said . "You're already embarra.s.sing enough . We don't need public declarations . "

"I'll do whatever I want, woman," Dark said then stormed out of the hotel room, muttering to himself .

Lot City Hotel . . .

Tessa finished brus.h.i.+ng long green hair . She was dressed in a designer skirt with a cute s.h.i.+rt to offset her hair . She decided to hide her elf ears as to not draw unnecessary attention at the cultural fair . She couldn't believe after seeing them in anime, she'd actually get to attend . Sure, it wasn't one hundred percent what she had in mind—but not all of the students were sn.o.bby rich kids . There should be enough normal people to make the event fun . Plus it was open to the public, so they'd be in big trouble for embarra.s.sing the most powerful college of Yaponiya . And the highlight in which she looked forward to the most: the food . For some reason, this nation served j.a.panese cuisine, straight from the human world, which was awesome . No…it wasn't just j.a.panese or Asian cuisine—but anime food in general . Sure, the entire dimension technically had it, but this nation was famous for theirs .

"This is going to be sweeeet . "

Lot City Grand Hotel…

Chizuru took a sip of delicious hot tea then let out a sigh of bliss . She just happened to be in the area where a cultural festival was being advertised and got permission to attend . Sure, most of the crusaders in her group were going, but with mandatory casual clothing . She'd get to blend in and be normal . No dresses with crosses, that for some reason highlighted her b.r.e.a.s.t.s .

Unfortunately, the researcher woman with them, demanded that the group still took their swords, especially Chizuru, wielder of the holy sword, Apollo .

The young woman really didn't want to lug around the weapon . She wanted to fit in, which is why she bribed one of the men to carry it in return for a date . He wouldn't take money, so she had no choice . She'd get out of that somehow or if he demanded to walk with her at the cultural festival, unleash a million excuses .

Chizuru was also…a little socially inapt . Sure, she could put on an act, be the crusader champion role model that everyone wanted her to be . That meant no personal friends or girl talk—not that she found anything wrong with that . She sometimes didn't like people . Ugh! Not today! She was going to force herself to have fun and eat enough to pop . No caretaker to force her to eat healthy or… . She froze as she heard heavy breathing outside of her door .

"Onee-sama, hang out with me today . "

"You…you dishonor the great ones, you pervert!" Chizuru snapped . The attempt to remind that perverted girl that she was a crusader grew more difficult each day . Fortunately, the young woman had an escape route planned . That's why she chose to be on the very first floor . And just like that, she got away through the window .

Food and fun, here she comes!

Clyde's house…

As Clyde walked down the hall, he failed to come up with a way to break the harem news . Well, there were no other men present—maybe that served as a hint . Sure, the others had their own rooms, but Alice and Chika were his bedmates . If any of the parents demanded a tour, they'd be busted .

In the end, the young man decided that it wasn't worth instant death . He stopped at Harumi's room . Melody did too, a hint of panic in her eyes . She had no intention of going out there without him . Too bad the fox girl wasn't in her room, most likely called by her friend, Sazuki for an early meetup . Clyde longed for her warm and soft embrace, accompanied by kindness .

[Talent Main character stuff . Hidden Skill . Tier 1 skill: Foresight . ]

Natalia walked through the door as Melody's mother took another swig of Yuki's brandy . A drink that the demoness didn't give her permission to touch . Laughing hard, she said,

"Hold my drink . I'm going to send her to the Loli saga world . "

But what she did to Natalia looked like murder—one hand on her forehead and the witch's eyes rolled to the back of her head, blood pouring from her mouth . Chika's mother screamed .

Alena pulled out a glowing sword from nothingness and plunged it through the heart of Melody's mother, causing blood and silver goo to splatter everywhere . Yet, it was an instant-death to She Who Dawned Time . Chika's mother burned, being in contact with the silver goo . While the angel looked as if she could revive anyone, she simply bowed and left in tears .

[Warning: this is but a possible future, among many futures . ]

Natalia . He sure as s.h.i.+t had no intention of letting anything happen to her . The image of her dying that way made him tremble . As much as he hated seeing these futures, getting them shoved into his memory, they always saved his friends . And woke him up .

Clyde teleported to the kitchen, right as Melody's mother reached for Yuki's brandy out of what appeared to be curiosity . He quickly s.n.a.t.c.hed it away and silently dared her to object .

"It's a pleasure to see you again," he said to no one in particular . "Let's not have any alcohol when we're headed to the school grounds . "

Clyde pa.s.sed the bottle to a relieved Yuki, who quickly took it out of sight, presumably to lock it away somewhere . Natalia walked in .

"Good morning everyone!" She hopped on Clyde's shoulders . "Who's ready for some food, games, and watching Team Stone interact with the mundane . "

Clyde sighed . The mothers blinked . He took the time to observe them . Impossibly beautiful—of course they would be and…Oh G.o.d, they're my mother-in-laws, he thought then gulped . At least Alice's mother was confirmed to be kind and the easiest to talk to, so he started with her .

"I—"

Alice, Chika, and Melody took that time to emerge from the hall . The three mothers stood . Alice dove into Alena's embrace .

Chika couldn't shy away as Madrian let out a stream of questions . Her gla.s.ses turned anime-white and Clyde was sure that he wasn't the only one who felt the perverted vibe in the air .

"Are you two sleeping together? Are you pregnant? Do you want the pill?"

Melody's mother s.n.a.t.c.hed her daughter up in a hug, although his fiancée clearly wanted to be at least one hundred miles away .

"Well, at least you have me, pervy-nii," Natalia said, kissing his cheek .

"You're not wrong," Clyde said .

"Is it because I'm your Right Hand?"

"It's because you're You," Clyde corrected, his voice quiet to keep the conversation private . "Look, sometimes it's fun to make FBI jokes, but I know you're not really a kid . Your real form and all . And I love you just as much as I do Alice—even if you're a pain in the a.s.s sometimes . "

Natalia didn't respond, motionless on his shoulders . After seemingly deciding something, she whispered,

"Do you really mean it, onii-chan?"

"d.a.m.n right and don't you forget it," Clyde said .

"Son-in-law," Madrian said, breaking the moment .

"He's my son-in-law," Alena said .

"No, mine," Melody's mother said .

"Mother," Melody said, desperately trying to change the subject . "Let's start with the introductions, before we go to the festival . "

"The other parents are waiting at the festival to discuss Team Stone," Yuki said to Clyde . He nodded, giving her hand a squeeze .

And so the introductions came and went and at last, Melody's mother name was revealed as Amaterasu, instead of the dawning time t.i.tle .

[Your relations.h.i.+p with Natalia has evolved to cherished, friend closer level—]

Clyde switched off the prompt as Natalia said,

"I'll never forget it . I love you way, way more, onii . "

"FBI!"

The group turned to see a smiling Tetra, let in by Yuki .

"I'm kidding," she said . "I'm just dropping by to visit but I can see that I may have come at a bad time?"

Alena was in a human guise, her wings hidden . Amaterasu's eyes didn't glow and give off an unsettling vibe . The supernatural women had plenty of experience exploring the human world without being caught .

"So…I didn't want to believe it, but I can sense two soul-oath vibes," Amaterasu said softly, causing Alena to look at her daughter . "It is a—"

"We've got to get going now," Yuki interrupted . "Sazuki and Harumi are gathering everyone . "

"We'll talk about this later," Alena said .

Clyde gulped then Jumped them all to the academy . This was going to be a long, cl.u.s.terf.u.c.k day . And he was going to personally keep an eye on Melody's mother .
