My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

-----

Annabelle slowly moved around the bed, as the light of the sun showered her little face.

"Mhuh… Fweh… What hour is it?" she wondered, as she sat down on her large bed.

However, unlike most days, her mother, Gwendolyn, was not sleeping at her side.

Usually, she would sleep with her mother as all the other beds were being used in the house…

Although they could easily make more through Yurei, the haunted house's abilities to craft things through its own wood and mana… but Annabelle loved to sleep at the side of her mother while being hugged by her, the two fox-kin had slept together for many years now.

Since the loss of her father that Annabelle had felt sorrowful, and so did Gwendolyn.

However, by sleeping together and hugging each other tightly while sharing their warmth and familiar love, they felt secure while sleeping.

So, usually, Annabelle would wake up with her mother at her side… or her mother would be waking her up by kissing her forehead, nose, or cheeks.

"Where did mother go? …Wait, she never came to bed! What happened? Did she sleep on the first floor? …I remember that she likes to stare at the night sometimes, but she always comes back…" she thought.

This was probably the first day in a long time that Annabelle had to sleep alone!

…And it was not as if she was particularly bothered, she was very tired as it was an intense day where a ton of stuff happened, so she slept soundly.

Nonetheless, it made her worry about her mother's whereabouts, so she quickly jumped out of bed and walked outside of her room.

There, she found Cathyl sleeping with her children around her, and Kamei sleeping alone in the bed she usually shared with Frank.

Annabelle made her way stealthily through the room, walking downstairs, as she suddenly felt the scent of pancakes being made on a pan, alongside a bit of steam produced through boiling water with some of the aroma of herbs such as tea…

"Mommy?" she asked, glancing down, and finding something a tad bit shocking.

"Hahh… Frank, not here…"

"Sorry… It's hard to resist after everything we did…"

She found her mother being passionately kissed by Frank, as he gently kissed her tender neck and even caressed her hips and ass above her dress, tightly grasping and squeezing her cheeks...

"B-But not now, alright?" asked Gwendolyn while blushing.

"Just a few more kisses…" said Frank.

"Mom?" asked Annabelle, her eyes were having a hard time believing what they were seeing.

"Eh?"

"Ah…"

Gwendolyn and Frank were paralyzed in the spot, as Frank slowly and mechanically moved his hands off Gwendolyn's body.

"W-WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!" asked Annabelle, almost freaking out!

Her loud cry woke up everyone in the entire house, even Yurei, the house itself, who was taking a little nap was startled, groaning in surprise!

Everyone then walked downstairs as they glanced at a little drama unfold.

"A-Annabelle…! Y-You woke a bit early…" said Frank.

"I can explain it! I-I can!" said Gwendolyn trying to calm down her daughter.

"Y-You degenerate man! W-What were you doing to my mommy?!" roared Annabelle, completely forgetting about how much she cared about Frank and roaring as if trying to protect what was hers.

"Please, Annabelle, I can explain it… We can… explain it…! I wasn't doing anything… bad!" said Frank.

"S-She was resisting! You pervert! Degenerate! Stupid!" said Annabelle, using her tiny arms to attack Frank, although he really didn't felt any pain.

"W-Well, I was technically r-resisting… but it wasn't as if I didn't like it!" said Gwendolyn.

"W-What?!" asked Annabelle.

"I think we should explain to everyone… what's going on…" sighed Frank.

"Sigh… I told you that we should not do such things when we got here! But I guess it is part of being young to be a bit horny…" sighed Gwendolyn.

"Sorry, I will try to not be horny…" sighed Frank.

"No, no! It's fine… you can be at night," said Gwendolyn.

"Oh? Alright…" said Frank, giving back a smile to Gwendolyn.

"WOULD YOU EXPLAIN OR NOT?!" asked Annabelle while blushing.

"Y-Yes…" sighed Frank.

After a few minutes of many explanations, Frank and Gwendolyn managed to explain that they… had begun a romantic relationship last night… and that… well, they expressed their love to each other as adults do it…

"Mom, don't be dumb! Do you think we don't know what sex is?" asked Annabelle while crossing her arms.

"Eh? I… Sorry…" sighed Gwendolyn.

"S-So Frank-kun and Gwendolyn-san… Uwah… I never expected this outcome!" said Hilvera.

"It is surprising…" said Asterion.

"Damn… Gwendolyn you really just beat me on the race there! But nice one! So? How's Frank on the bed?" asked Cathyl while grinning a bit.

"T-That's… not a question you should ask… For now," said Gwendolyn.

"Eh, I can't help but feel like this is weird… Frank-kun, you really like my mom? Does that means that you will become my step-father?!" asked Annabelle.

"What…? I never thought about that clearly… Well, if you want I could…" said Frank.

"No! No way!" roared Annabelle while crossing her arms and averting her gaze, she began to pout and blush a bit… all of this was a very embarrassing turn of events.

However, amongst all those present here, the one that seemed more affected was… Kamei.

"N-Nii-sama… Y-You lost your virginity with Gwendolyn-san…?! This is…! Way too impactful! What about me?!" asked Kamei.

"Huh? W-What do you even mean with that, Kamei?! Don't talk strange things!" said Frank, as Kamei was hugging him and protesting.

"I thought that you would lose it at the same time! Sniffles… Like brother and sister!" said Kamei.

"W-What are you even talking about?! T-That is wrong on so many levels, Kamei! No is no! You will find another man! I am your brother!" cried Frank.

"Sniffles… But you said that you would marry me!" said Kamei.

"Eh? W-When did I said… that?" asked Frank, as he suddenly remembered when Kamei was around three years old and he was playing with her as Pretend Family, and she had made Frank into her husband as they pretended to live as a couple like their parents…

Of course, such a thing never went through Frank's mind as bad, as it was mere child's play.

"Kamei… T-That was a game…" sighed Frank.

"Really?" asked Kamei.

"Yeah! You were so little, of course, it was! Geez…" sighed Frank.

"I-I think it is not right to do that with your brother, Kamei-chan…" said Hilvera.

"Y-Yeah, relax," said Annabelle.

"I guess I was exaggerating a bit there… Sorry, this thing impacted me a bit but… Gwendolyn-san is a good woman… She is fitting for onii-sama… Make sure to treat him well! Never dare hurt onii-sama's feelings, Gwendolyn-san!" said Kamei.

It seemed that, thankfully, Kamei understood things a bit and felt like she was exaggerating a bit… Deciding to lend the care of her nii-sama, to Gwendolyn.

"A-Ah, my dear… Of course, I will… I will do everything I can to make him happy," said Gwendolyn, embracing Kamei alongside Frank.

"Ah! We have to tell mom and dad…" said Kamei.

"I went to borrow them a few hours ago, they had been resting inside of my Inner Realm now, I nourished their souls very well, but they need to sleep for a few days to fully recover," said Frank.

"O-Oh… alright then… Eh? Inner Realm? What's that?" asked Kamei.

"When I woke up I developed the ability to generate a Realm inside of my soul and mind… We can get inside if you want to look at it," said Frank.

"Wait, is that where you two were…?" asked Cathyl.

Gwendolyn blushed a bit as she averted her gaze and covered her mouth with her hand shyly.

"Y-Yeah…" said Frank rather shyly as well.

"Oh damn, so you got a whole world just for you two… Alright show me around too!" said Cathyl, as Frank suddenly invited everyone inside his Inner Realm.

By just willing it and as long as they accepted while being around him, Frank was able to bring them to his Inner Realm.

Flash!

Suddenly, everyone was startled, glaring at the scenery unfold around them…

A beautiful scenario that was right out of those pictures taken of the outer space that Frank had once seen on Earth.

Stars shining brightly around the empty darkness of the void, and even small nebulas within the scenery.

Although this did not mean that Frank had actual stars, as this was merely the appearance of such a space, but not the real structure of it, as this Inner Realm was an empty world which Frank could mold however he desired.

"W-Woah… Is this real life?" wondered Cathyl.

"You asked to come here so don't act surprised now…" said Frank.

"This is way too crazy…" said Asterion.

"Look! So many stars…" said Hilvera.

"Can we touch them?" wondered Annabelle.

"They are not real stars, but an illusion… This inner realm is an ethereal world which I can shape however I want… this space seems to be its default appearance… but… just like I did before if I will it enough… There," said Frank, as the landscape and everything around everyone changed!

Flash!

Suddenly, everyone found themselves in a world of grasslands and forests, with a yellow sun shining brightly atop the skies, as countless large white clouds drifted through the sky…

"This… Aren't you like a God or something now?!" asked Kamei.

"Perhaps in here, it could be said that I am… no, I don't like to be called a God. But I can do a lot of things here. However, in the outside world, the real world… I can't do any of this," said Frank.

"I see… so it is kind of limited?" wondered Cathyl.

"Only to this Realm," said Frank.

"Hey Frank, can you make food?!" asked Asterion.

"I could but… it won't fill your stomach…" laughed Frank.
