Chapter 123 - A Conversation
-----
After seeing the great upgrades that changing Jobs brought to me, I decided to call it a day and rest until tomorrow… Well, until tomorrow of the Inner World time.
Kireina and Katrina were as intense and eager as every night, and they drained me dry up until morning…
The sun of the Inner World greeted me this morning as it bathed my face with its warmth.
I sat over the bed and sighed a bit.
I've gotten really far…
So many fantastical things that I could have only imagined in my craziest dreams are all happening.
I guess this is affecting me way more than I look to be. Although it seems that I have adapted, everything still feels surreal sometimes. Even the power of summoning beings using my novel characters as templates.
Maybe for someone that never wrote down their imagination into novels, it wouldn't be as hard to accept after all the fantastical things, but for me, it seems as if reality itself was joking with me at this point… All the fantastical things I always wrote down are all happening now, all the things I never thought would happen.
Hm, I suppose I should stop worrying and embrace this life at this point… Might as well…
Kireina and Katrina quickly woke up after me, sharing their souls, it is as if both were the same being, but each one has a different mind and personality, kind of like split personalities but each one has a body… Yeaaah… Maybe that's not the best example.
"Good morning master," said Katrina with a calm expression.
"Good morning~," said Kireina, she seemed more playful, of course.
"Good morning you two," I said while petting both.
"Is there something wrong? I feel like you were a bit sorrowful?" asked Kireina.
Ah… She's good at this.
"Well… Yeah…" I sighed.
"Is there some issue?" asked Katrina.
"W e l l…"
I explained to them a bit over my thoughts. As my summons, they are the closest to me, and I know I can trust them.
Kireina and Katrina nodded as both rubbed their chins.
"I see how it is. Well, I can kind of understand why you would feel like that, master," said Kireina.
"Indeed. The world is rather chaotic outside. There is a lot of things to do, and… so many fantastical occurrences one after another must be shocking." Said Katrina.
"Despite that, you're holding up on those feelings and being strong, right?" asked Kireina.
"Well… you got me," I said.
"Our sole existences are something bizarre to you, perhaps. After all, our creation was made through using the characters of your novels as blueprints. Understandably, you might feel like this…" said Katrina.
"Even then, we are trying to make up for it with all the affection we can give to you," said Kireina.
"But even then… Is it weird?" wondered Katrina.
"I suppose master might be right… Not even I know what I really am. Sometimes I wonder what my existence is, what is the purpose of why I am here… What am I to begin with…" sighed Kireina.
"But when we are with Master, we feel whole…" said Katrina.
"We find a purpose to our lives… Something to hold tight, something we want to protect… Perhaps this is why all of us summons have such a self - sacrificing demeanor with our Master, we merely want to make him happy because this also makes us happy, it makes us feel as if we are fulfilling a purpose to our very existences…" said Kireina.
"Maybe… it is a bit too complicated?" wondered Katrina.
I was surprised… The two of them think such complex things. Of course, they are people at the end of the day… To think that they had such an existential crisis without even telling me…
I guess they're right, compared to me, they really are the ones with the most issues.
"Sorry about what I said previously. I was just overthinking things way too much. A bad habit that a writer does… I will embrace this life and… I will try to mak e you and everyone else around me happy. I want you to find a purpose in life. And… I guess that is also my purpose. In this chaotic apocalypse, I never imagined I could feel this happy… Let's fight as hard as we can to carve up a path towards victory," I said.
"Of course! That's the master I like the most~!" said Kireina.
"Hm, well said, master," said Katrina.
The two hugged and kissed me at the same time, it felt nice, to be honest…
"Thank you… Well, let's go take a shower for now, shall we? Now that Annebelle is in the house, she can use these Fire Bear Beast Orbs to warm up the water, so we have automatic warm baths now," I said.
"O o o h ! Nice! Let's go then~ We can have some fun too," said Kireina.
"Hm, I agree. Let's have some fun to relax Master's concerns…" said Katrina.
The two fairies' crimson-red eyes flashed with a predatory demeanor, as I felt like I was going to once more be drained dry in the bath.
And I did…
But thanks to my Skills, such as Pump Up, my greater and new Physiques, and things such as Endless Libido, I was capable of triumphing at the end, merely through even higher stamina than even my summons.
Anyways, after that, as the two began to make breakfast while I greeted the rest of the group, I went outside and harvested the ready vegetables, planting a new batch again.
Some Walking Radishes began to run around, but I caught them quite easily at the end.
By eating these vegetables, our stats can grow (even the summons), so these are very important, and the Farm has been gaining more EXP as I harvested more plants. I suppose in two more batches, it should finally Rank Up… I can't wait to see what other magical vegetables I can get to harvest and taste… It is even more amazing that they can give a Skill by eating a bunch.
As we enjoyed breakfast, I began to think about what to do today. Perhaps assessing the mountain of loot might be a good thing to do this morning.
