"So, are you also a Spirit?" Mukuro asked, looking curiously at her, who had returned to her young girl form.
"That's right." Fujino picked up the Happy Water on the table, took a gulp, then looked at Mukuro and said indifferently, "The current her can be considered your mother."
"Eh?!" Mukuro looked at Fujino in surprise. "Why?!"
"Because I am the First Spirit." She smiled, reaching out to stroke Mukuro's little head.
In her young girl form, she was quite a bit taller than Mukuro. At a glance, Mukuro and she looked like a pair of intimate sisters.
However, Mukuro clearly still didn't understand how she had become her mother.
"Let me explain it to you." Fujino explained, "She is the First Spirit, the very first Spirit to be born in this world. And the Sephira Crystal you just fused with was copied by me based on the power she possesses. Although it is a copy, it still has a certain connection to her, which is why she is called your mother. Because the power of the Sephira Crystal is a part of her, and by fusing with the Sephira Crystal, you can also be said to have become a part of her. Although, because it's a copy, it doesn't have too much influence; it's just a matter of status."
After saying this, Fujino took another big gulp of Happy Water.
"Refreshing."
A sound of satisfaction came from her mouth. Fujino looked at Mukuro again, only to find the latter still looking completely bewildered.
Fujino shrugged helplessly and said, "Forget it, don't worry about the status. Mukuro, just keep calling her Big Sister like you did before."
"Yeah, just calling me Big Sister is fine." She smiled, happily hugging Mukuro.
Having fused with the Sephira Crystal copied from her power, Mukuro was now a being of the same origin. The aura radiating from Mukuro made her feel very close, and Mukuro felt the same way about her.
"Alright, let me have a hug." While speaking, Fujino had already stretched out her hands, pulling Mukuro and her into her arms, rubbing her soft cheeks against theirs.
"As expected, this is very comfortable." Fujino sighed with satisfaction, rubbing her face against them. She released the two, who were blushing deeply from the rubbing, and stroked their heads, smiling. "Alright, you go help Mukuro get familiar with her abilities; I have some things to handle."
After speaking, Fujino freed one hand and tapped the air, opening a purple Dimensional Gate.
"So amazing!" Watching this magical scene, Mukuro opened her mouth wide, curiously examining the purple Dimensional Gate.
"Alright, go on in." Fujino smiled. "I've adjusted the time inside slightly; no matter how long you stay in there, only half an hour will have passed."
"Fujino, you're so amazing! Is she also a Spirit!?"
"No," Fujino smiled. "She will tell you later. Go on in. I'll leave Mukuro to you."
"Mm." She nodded with a smile and immediately pulled Mukuro, who still wanted to say something, into the Dimensional Gate.
The purple radiance swirled, then returned to tranquility. With her and Mukuro disappearing into the Dimensional Gate, the room returned to silence.
Fujino finished the Happy Water in her hand in one gulp, then summoned a flame to destroy the bottle. Looking at the room where only she remained, she said to herself, "Come out."
"You found me." A figure suddenly appeared in front of Fujino; it was Nyarko, who hadn't been heard from in a long time.
"Don't forget, we have a contract between us." Fujino said calmly, then revealed a faint smile. "Where have you been lately? I thought you had been sealed by some Ancient God."
"Hehe, they can't seal me." Nyarko said, hands on her hips, looking very smug.
Fujino just smiled at this. Indeed, as Nyarko meant, given her special nature, there really wasn't any Ancient God that could easily catch and seal her. Moreover, at this time, those Ancient Gods were almost all sleeping; there were very few who were awake. It could be said that Nyarko was like a fish in water as she traveled through various worlds.
"Alright, tell me quickly, why did you suddenly return? And you only sent an avatar; is your true body in another world?"
Relying on the contract and the avatar of Nyarko on the moon, Fujino located the position of Nyarko's true body in a world very far away from the one she was currently in.
"Why did you go to such a remote world? Such a secluded location, and the aura of this world is a bit strange."
Fujino frowned slightly. The plane where Nyarko's true body was currently located was truly strange. The entire world was wrapped in a layer of gray gas, which was a sign that the plane was in a half-dead state. It was an existence similar to a post-apocalyptic world; such a world could be destroyed in the next moment, or it could be reborn in the next moment, with the world's level rising to a higher tier. Moreover, this world's current level was mid-to-high; if it were reborn, it would become a high-level world. However, this world seemed to be mislabeled, as its actual level hadn't reached that point.
"Is this Cthulhu's aura?! Wait! Is it Cthulhu's subordinate race?" Fujino looked at the grinning Nyarko in front of her, puzzled.
"That's right, this world is very interesting, isn't it? I checked; those subordinate races only came to this world because of a rift that was inadvertently created in the past. And this rift happened to open in the habitat of those subordinate races, attracting them, so they just invaded this world. However, that world also has some people with decent strength, so the race couldn't completely occupy it, and it has just been stuck in a stalemate." Nyarko said.
"I see." Fujino nodded and asked again, "It's not just these subordinate races, right? I also sensed another aura; someone else of your kind, right?"
"That's right." Nyarko said in a deep voice, "It's Yog-Sothoth."
"It's actually Him?!" Fujino frowned, then immediately revealed an excited smile. Yog-Sothoth, the true name, one of the Three Pillars along with Nyarko, an existence that controls space and worlds.
"That's not the true body, right? It doesn't even count as an avatar. If it were the true body, that world would have ceased to exist long ago." Fujino said. The true form of an Evil God is not something a mid-level world can withstand. Before it could even fully descend, the entire world would collapse and be destroyed because it couldn't bear its power.
"It is indeed not the true form. Currently, It is at the other end of the universe. The reason that world has Its aura is that Its avatar fell into that world, and the aura infected it, causing it to become this way."
"Who on earth managed to kill Its avatar?"
