Chapter 916 Is Parenting Hard?
?-----
Those that had Little Chaotic Energy could only release black sparks from their hands. These were all of Fabian\'s friends I revived with new bodies. Fabian could generate two spheres of miasma in his hands. Takeshi and Laura could unleash Auras from their body, although not as big as Nyx, and Silva was able to release an even thicker Aura, as if she was generating a huge sea of miasma.
Meanwhile, Nyx\'s Aura was much more refined, pure, and strong, and it also held multiple other elements seamlessly fused into it, such as Void, Darkness, Death, Fire and Phantom. She\'s a Fire Dragon after all, like her dad… So she might develop new Fire Magic in the future if we keep helping her grow.
Anyways, after that, Tyr and I created a new training method for them to get this power much stronger and also to help them train it. He\'ll keep his Chaos Spirit Domain around them and allow the kids to go nuts.
"Go nuts?" Asked Silva, confused. "W-What do you mean?"
"I mean what I said!" Tyr angrily barked. "Maintain your Chaotic Energy as much as you can, keep your Auras coming out and try your hardest to manipulate it. Your first shape is…"
"A sphere!" I said, showing them a simple sphere. "Those that can make a sphere should make cubes now. You too Nyx."
"Oway mama!" Nyx nodded happily.
"But won\'t we run out of it too quickly?" Asked Spectra. "Unlike the rest we don\'t have that much…"
"Don\'t worry about that, Tyr here will replenish it for ya." I said. "Well, technically it\'s me who is doing it but he\'s manipulating it and sending it to you with much more precision than I can."
"I-I see…" Spectra was excited. "Okay then… let\'s do this!"
As I saw the children practice, Arachne walked to my side, gently pulling my dress to call for me.
"Can I join the class?"
"Y-You want to?"
"Yes… It looks fun!"
"Hmm, okay then."
She was a gentle and pure hearted girl raised by spiders, so I guess she wanted to socialize a bit more with the rest.
"So your name is Arachne, right? You seem different- Are those spider legs?!" Spectra wondered.
"Y-Yes… Are they ugly?" Arachne wondered, feeling embarrassed.
"They\'re cool! I\'ve got wings and a tail!" Nyx said.
"Yeah, I like them." Silva nodded. "I-I only have horns… I wish I had more things…"
"I think you\'re fine as you are…!" Arachne smiled back.
"A-Ah, is that so…" Silva blushed a bit.
"Mama, I\'m done! I made ten cubes!" Nyx commented, approaching me.
"Oh! Well done dear." I smiled. "Now try making pyramids."
"Oway!" Nyx nodded, working hard.
"Hmm… I did it too! Spheres and cubes…!" Arachne suddenly said.
The cubes and spheres made of chaos floated around her…
"W-Well done, pyramids… try doing those." I said with a gentle smile.
"Sure!" Arachne nodded.
I noticed Arachne and Nyx glaring at one another as they shaped their chaos energies.
They\'re really being competitive right now…?
"Next!"
"I did it!"
The two were ending their test almost instantly and moving to the next one rapidly, one after another. It felt like they really just wanted to be over the other, and it was getting quite irritating…
I think this is just what I caused for spoiling Arachne so much, making her dislike that I already had a daughter I needed to give love and attention, so a rivalry of sorts was formed.
I need to talk this out with the two of them as soon as possible before it gets worse. But Arachne is a bit hard to deal with due to her monster-like nature.
If I\'m not gentle with my words, I might upset her and turn her against me… I wouldn\'t want that.
"You\'re overthinking it too much." Tyr suddenly said. "Simply praise both and tell them they\'re good in what they do, and that they should be friends."
"Is that easy?!" I wondered. "Shut up, do you even have experience in parenting?"
"I do! I had several children." Tyr sighed. "Also I\'m much older than you! When will you stop treating me like a joke?"
"Ugh, fine…" I sighed. "Let\'s try that."
As I saw them constantly creating new things, I moved to their side and patted the two at the same time.
"Both of you are so amazing and talented! You both did excellent." I smiled. "So please, don\'t start fighting, okay? It would… make me really sad to see my girls fighting, I want you to get along, please?"
"Uhh…" Arachne remained in silence, crossing her arms.
"Mama?" Nyx wondered, feeling confused.
"Both of you are overdoing it just for the sake of competition, right? By itself, that\'s not bad but… If you want to steal the other\'s attention, then it is not good." I said. "Okay?"
"Hmm… Sorry…" Arachne suddenly apologized. "I didn\'t know I was upsetting you, mama…"
"Me neither mama…" Nyx said. "Wait, is she really your daughter, mama?"
"I-I…" I looked at Arachne, she was giving me puppy eyes. "Y-
Yes, I mean… I adopted her. Much earlier, but it took her a while to get to us, sorry… She\'s like your big sister, like Takeshi and Laura, and I want you to get along, alright dear?"
"Okay…" Nyx nodded. "I just thought that she was pretending to be or forcing you to… But that\'s fine if she\'s nice!"
"I\'ll be nice, sorry…" Arachne apologized again. "Mama taught me to always say sorry when I do something wrong… Sorry."
"It\'s fine! Let\'s be friends! I did say I liked your spider legs!" Nyx giggled innocently.
"I like your wings!" Arachne smiled.
Aw, the two finally got along! Tyr was right, I shouldn\'t have even overthought it took much. I just had to talk my heart and tell them I wanted them to get along…
"See? Though, it only worked because they love you a lot." Tyr said, smiling faintly. "I wonder how my children are going…"
"How many kids did you had?" I wondered.
"A few dozen… Some of them became important Gods in the Pantheon, they must be serving my traitorous father, thinking I was the bad guy all along…" Tyr felt frustrated. "Hahh…"
"Don\'t worry, we\'ll find them and tell them the truth one day." I nodded. "I promise you."
"Maria…" Tyr\'s single eye opened wide. "…Thanks."
