Chapter 799 Talking to Kalus

Chapter 799 Talking to Kalus

Leading them to the room, Mio sat down with Nan Tian and Shiro.

"So what did you think to your grandparents?" Mio asked curiously as she rested her chin on her palm.

"Hmm..." Leaning back for a moment, Shiro thought about it and frowned.

"Well... I don’t know. He seems serious for one moment then casual for another. Does Gramps have schizophrenia?" Shiro asked curiously.

"Pft hahaha, your grandpa is awkward like that. Though he’s rather charismatic on the battlefield. If he wasn’t he wouldn’t be able to reign over the reapers with such a secure throne." Mio smiled as Shiro nodded her head.

"Knowing your grandpa, he’ll probably visit you tonight with some food or something." Mio chuckled as Shiro furrowed her brows.

"How come?"

"Well... he finds it easier to talk to someone over food. Don’t worry though, your grandpa was the one who taught me how to cook and I can say that he’s a better cook than I am." Mio smiled.

Hearing this, Shiro’s ears perked up for a moment as she raised her eyebrow.

"Gramps is a better cook than you are?" She asked with confusion.

"Yup. I’ll leave for now since I want to look for a few things. Nan Tian, come with me and I’ll lead you to your room." Mio smiled as Nan Tian nodded his head.

Standing up, he followed Mio as Shiro gave them a wave before laying on the floor.

Sighing out heavily, she closed her eyes for a moment.to think about what she had found out today.

First, she was part reaper which explained her connection to souls.

Second, Hades knows her grandparents.

Third, Zeus has allied with a Queen to kill her. While she wasn’t so worried about this, it was still going to be annoying since she was against both a Queen and a god.

{You seemed stressed.} Nimue said as Shiro shrugged.

’A little I guess. I didn’t expect Hades to know Gramps and that they were reapers.’ Shiro shrugged.

{Well they seem kind so it should be fine. Plus, you have a decent relationship with Hades no? Though it’s a shame that Poseidon was so petty to actually give you more blessings. If not, you could have gotten more from Hades.} Nimue sighed.

’Mn, well that’s in the past now. I have my own divinity so it’s fine.’ Shiro shook her head.

’I think I’m just going to sleep for a bit. I don’t know how long it’s been since I properly slept a day away.’ Shiro yawned as Attie reached out to her in the mana realm.

’Mn? You want to come out too?’ Shiro asked curiously.

Nodding his head, Attie hugged her leg while glancing up at her.

Feeling as though an arrow had just struck her heart from how cute he was, Shiro brought him outside.

’Do you three want to join too?’ Shiro turned to Nimue, Iziuel and Estrella.

{I’ll be fine in here.} Estrella smiled as Shiro raised her eyebrow.

’You know that I’ve already forgiven you right? If you want to come out you can. Plus, you can also help me by keeping Attie company.’ Shiro said as Estrella paused for a moment before eventually nodding her head.

{I understand.}

’Hais... It’s not an order.’ Shiro rolled her eyes as she gently knocked Estrella’s head.

Summoning her out, she glanced at the other two.

{I’ll come too.} Iziuel smiled since she didn’t mind looking after Attie in that time.

{Same with me.} Nimue said while shrugging her shoulders.

Summoning everyone out into the room, Shiro hugged Attie while sitting down on the bed.

"Just a thought. Are you sure we’re allowed here?" Nimue asked.

"I’m sure it’ll be fine. Nan Tian is able to follow after all." Shiro yawned slightly and laid on the bed.

"Do you want to sleep too? Or do you want to play with Nimue and the others?" Shiro asked as Attie glanced between her and the spirits.

Furrowing his brows, he snuggled into the bed and closed his eyes.

"Of course he’d want to spend more time with his mum." Nimue chuckled as Shiro smiled.

"Well I’ll just be sleeping for a little while. If you need me, give me a shout or nudge me. I won’t be in deep sleep so I’ll wake up." Shiro said as Nimue nodded her head.

Watching Shiro close her eyes and sleep next to Attie, the three spirits smiled and glanced at each other.

’Looking at her like this almost makes me forget that she’s the mighty destroyer of common sense.’ Nimue thought with a chuckle while glancing out of the window.

But just as she did that, she noticed Kalus crouching with a confused gaze.

Before she could say anything, Kalus placed a finger over his lips and gestured for them to come outside.

Glancing at each other, the three spirits nodded and stepped out the room.

"I suppose Shiro is resting for now then." Kalus said as he placed a noise cancelling barrier around them.

"Yes she is. She had been quite fatigued hence why she decided to rest for now." Nimue replied with a respectful bow.

"Mn, ah yeah. So who are you three and who’s the kid in her bed?" Kalus asked curiously.

Glancing at one another, the spirits thought about it for a moment before replying.

"I suppose you can call us her retainers in a way. I’m connected through her with a contract and I’m responsible for making sure her body is in good condition." Nimue smiled as Kalus nodded his head.

"What about you two?"

"I suppose we are connected but we don’t play as big a role as Nimue here. You can just call us her friends." Iziuel smiled as Estrella hesitated for a moment before nodding her head.

"I see... What about the kid in her bed then?"

"He’s another spirit but due to the circ.u.mstances of his birth, you can say that Shiro is his adoptive mother." Nimue explained as Kalus raised his eyebrow.

"So you’re saying that he’s my great grandson?" Kalus asked just to make sure as the three nodded their heads.

Suddenly, the door opened with Shiro leaning against the door frame.

"You know, when I said that I was resting it means I would notice when gramps glanced through the window. What are you four talking about so sneakily that you even need this barrier?" Shiro asked as she tapped the barrier with her finger and shattered it apart.

Widening his eyes in surprise, Kalus couldn’t believe what he had just seen. After all, his granddaughter was actually able to shatter one of his barriers at such a low level.

"Your grandfather was just curious as to who we were and who Attie was." Nimue replied with a smile.

"Oh you’re talking about that. Well this one is Nimue, this one is Iziuel and this one is Estrella. They’re all my friends and Attie here is my son." Shiro introduced casually as Kalus nodded his head.

"Does your mother know about your son?" He asked.

"Oh she knows about my two daughters but not my son. Speaking of which, I should probably introduce him to her." Shiro mused to herself as she stepped away from the door.

"Want to come inside gramps?" Shiro asked as Kalus nodded his head.

Walking inside, he sat down next to the table and brought some food out of his inventory.

’Just like what mum said he would do.’ Shiro thought with a chuckle.

"Feel free to eat anything you want. Shall we have a small chat?" Kalus asked as Shiro nodded her head.

"Of course. It would be rude of me to say no."

"Mn, I Just want to ask about how your mother has been doing. Is she happy with that Koji brat?" Kalus asked as Shiro laughed hearing that her father was actually called brat.

"Yes she is. Dad is doing his part as a good husband I suppose haha."

"I see... If he ever bullies your mother, tell me ok?" Kalus said while giving her a small talisman of sorts.

"This will let you communicate with me. If you need help, this can also summon my power for a short time in order to deal with the dangers that you face." Kalus said as Shiro nodded her head

Despite the somewhat strict and serious introduction, Shiro couldn’t help but find that her gramps was acting rather cute without his serious display.

Spending the next few moments to talk about some of her adventurers over some food, Kalus listened patiently as her tales were rather impressive which made him feel pride as a grandfather.

"Ah right, your grand mother wanted me to ask you about something." Kalus said as Shiro tilted her head.

"What did she want to ask?"

"She wanted to ask about how you obtained Divine energy since only gods should have access to that."
