And she kept sending messages…

<Friend: Rita (Bestie)>
[Rita]: [I’m just happy you’ve moved on, bestie. :′) It has been so many years since then! You really needed to move on and get someone that loved you again. I know you so well, so I knew you needed someone that embraced you and truly loved you. That Mark has loved you for years now, I’m glad for him too, he got to get the milf of his dreams! Jajajaja! XD]
[Elayne]: [TT-TT Stop being so embarrassing… You have some sort of supernatural ability to make people embarrassed through text messages like nobody else!]
[Rita]: [Yeah, it’s part of my new magic powers, hehehe…]
[Elayne]: [Anyways, I’ve been thinking about visiting my husband’s family… Mostly because I consider them my family too, Elena too, of course.]
[Rita]: [Oh! Sounds nice! You should totally go! I don’t know if I should come along though, I didn’t knew them that well…]
[Elayne]: [Yeah, I guess it’s a place I should go alone with Elena, even bringing Mark could make some discourse…]
[Rita]: [Yep, the family’s always been nice though, but its better to respect their privacy and stuff, especially because most of them are Japanese and all…]
[Elayne]: [Right, should be a short trip if anything… Actually it’s not, they moved to Japan.]
[Rita]: [Oh…]
[Elayne]: [Yeaaah, it’s not going to be easy to get there quickly. Maybe I should go with you guys anyways, we could use the excuse of just going out for some tourism.]
[Rita]: [Honestly, sounds pretty good. How about we do it once we’re done with the Demon King and all?]
[Elayne]: [You’re so confident about something so dangerous… But you’re right, let’s do it once that’s done. Although not even I am sure if we’ll triumph completely.]
[Rita]: [How can’t you? We’re all so OP!]
[Elayne]: [You and your endless confidence… Anyways, see ya later, bestie. I’ll go eat lunch. Mark’s coming to eat too! <3]
[Rita]: [Alright, if you’re feeling down just tell him to give you some oral, that always works for me.]
[Elayne]: [:Facepalm:]

I decided to ignore her as I moved on, quickly beginning to serve the plates. And just as I finished chatting with her, I heard Mark knocking the door, which I opened my waving my hand and using some magic. The door was made of a reinforced wood I had already assimilated into my own, so I could easily control it.
In fact, the whole house is like an extension of my body as of now, I’ve been expanding my roots beneath it since everything started, fusing my magical powers with it and my wood, even as I walk outside and “separate” from it, the house remains as an extension of my body as long as I am alive.
I’ve even thought about creating some sort of “Magic Core” to my house, to make it even safer, the Great Spirit said that could make my House into a Magician Tower or a Sorceress Fortress, capable of both fending off beasts and monsters from entering, protecting my family as long as they’re inside or around a large perimeter, and even boosting my own magic power even from a long distance, as it would be connected to my Mana Veins.
For that I need a lot of materials though, so I’ll think about it later, on another occasion.
“I’m home~” Mark entered the house as he walked in. “A-Ah, I mean, I’m back…” He felt embarrassed.
“Hahaha, it’s fine.” I smiled. “I’m glad you think of this house as your home, dear. Lunch’s done, come sit down. Elena! Monica! Come eat!”
“Kay~”
Elena’s voice echoed from her room as she walked out with Monica, both were actively talking about the game and everything else. Monica had never played games before, so she was intrigued about the game she just played.
“Kirby games have a lot of lore.” Elena smiled. “Eventually, you always fight some sort of eldritch god as the final boss.”
“R-Really?!” Monica was shocked. “But it looked so cute…”
“Heh, that’s how devs trick you into thinking it’s just a little game for kids.” Elena smiled.
“Woah…” Monica was really surprised for some reason.
“Looks like you two are getting along pretty well.” Mark commented.
“Oh, yeah… Will you come like every day from now on?” Elena wondered.
“I-If I’m not too much of a bother…” Mark felt slightly hurt by her comment.
“Elena!” I tried to reprimand her.
“Ah, I mean, I’m not saying it’s that it’s a bad thing.” My daughter sighed. “Just wanted to know… Ugh, my body hurts all over.”
“Yeah, you’ll be having that problem for a few days.” I laughed. “You’ll need to do this every day from now on.”
“Ugh, wait, what?!” Elena cried. “I thought it was like a one-time thing?”
“Nah, you’re doing it for as long as you live, keeping your body at top condition is necessary.” Mark pointed out.
“Eeeeh? Ugh…” Elena complained, but still ate the meal happily. “Oh well… So when do I get to hunt Hollows?”
“Hmm, once you get a better grip at your physical and magical capabilities.” I said. “Not before or after. There’s a charm in you so they won’t appear around you unless I let them… So for now, let’s leave it at that.”
“Fine.” She sighed. “I’ll just have to work hard for it, it is just like in BNLO anyways…”
My daughter, who usually was so careless about most things, had changed a lot. She was really decided to grow stronger IRL too and wanted to grow stronger no matter what. Be it because she wanted to protect herself or her friends, or because it was cool, or both, it didn’t really matter.
I just felt a bit proud as a mother that I managed to raise her well enough, to the point she would be willing to do things she hated to achieve a greater goal… I guess it is one of the important parts needed to develop someone into a responsible adult.
We chatted about whatever, enjoying the meal with a rather light-hearted atmosphere, and once Mark went back to work, I decided to log-in.
Ding!

Huh?
