What Do You Mean There Are Other Transmigrators In My Harem Fantasy?
Chapter 1016 - 1016: Back Where It BeganI stepped out from the portal to look at a nostalgic sight.
The cottage that used to be my home when I first came to this World was sitting right there, looking exactly the same as I had remembered.
Despite wanting to come back here for a while, we ended up never making the trip even though we could have done it thanks to Mary’s teleportation magic.
You know the feeling where you know you can do something anytime you want so you just put it off and procrastinate on doing it and then end up not doing it? Yeah… That’s what happened.
“So this is your childhood home…” Delmare whispered.
Odeta laughed, “Wahahaha! I still remember the time I spent here with you, Aster! Especially that day where you saved me from that wyvern! Wahaha!”
Oh wow, you still remember that, Odeta? Then again… I suppose something like that was difficult to forget.
Mother giggled and patted my head, “Mama has made sure that this place stayed the same as when you left it~ You can always come back here whenever you wish, my little one~”
I understood that as her way of telling me that if I ever wanted to stop adventuring around the World or just wanted to take a break but did not want to go back to the mansion, I could always just come back here to stay whenever I want.
I peeked around the back and I found the Cockatrices still behind the house and even the Bad Chicken that Mother named was still there.
Emilia froze when she saw the back, “Are those… Royal Cockatrice?”
I nodded, “Mmhmm~ Used to eat their eggs when I was growing up.”
Emilia turned and goggled at me, “You… Ate their eggs… While growing up?”
I gave her a worried look, “Should I not have? Is there something wrong with them?”
“No just that… Well… For one, I’m surprised that they even let you eat their eggs… The ones I know were all quite territorial and… Well… I guess this is the first time I’m looking at domesticated ones so there’s that… Secondly, one of their eggs can cost more than ten thousand Creas depending on their size!”
Oh wow… So I have been eating breakfast that was worth more than that money everyday back then? No wonder my sense of money is non-existent…
“Umm… Let’s not think about it since that’s not what we’re here for…” I muttered, trying to change the topic. “Ermm… We’ll only be here for a while so ideally we should be gone in just a few hours.”
Mother tilted her head at me, “Ara, ara? And here Mama thought for sure that my little one would want to stay here for at least a day or two before you leave~”
I made a face at Mother, “If I do that, you’ll definitely ask me to keep staying for one more day the next day, Mother…”
“Ara, ara~ My little one knows me so well~”
“Can’t we just stay here for just one day, Aster?” Lisa asked, looking at me with pleading eyes. “I want to see what your childhood home is like!”
I turned towards the girls and I saw them giving the same look.
Heck, even Tiara was giving me that look and she wasn’t following us but was only here just to see my childhood home.
Ughh… Fine, fine… I guess we can stay here for a day or two… Since for the thing that I planned, it might not be settled immediately either…
Speaking of which…
I cleared my throat, “In that case… I shall get going first, Mommy…”
Mother giggled, “Ara, ara~ In a rush like always, my little one~ No need to worry, Mama will prepare lunch for you when you return~ Oh, and also your room to stay the night of course, ufufufu~”
Mother was definitely enjoying this side trip of ours…
I took my things and started heading to the cave that I still vaguely remembered the location of.
Behind me was Odeta, Katsuki, Lisa, Delmare and Emilia, the group who would be following on my journey after this.
The reason why we’re here was of course… To try and use the Absolute Monster Girl Stone on the Hell Dragon that Mother had let me witness before.
Speaking of which… I never really went back to find Verdam to call on that favour he owes me yet… Maybe during my travels I might run into him again.
“Heh… That’s the dungeon isn’t it?” Odeta grinned, looking at the cave entrance that I had once frequented back when I was still a child.
I nodded, “That’s right.”
I was planning to just teleport us directly to where the dragon boss was and the others were following along just in case something happened and I needed help.
We made several plans for this including the possibility that the stone doesn’t work and we have to fight against that monster ourselves.
Heck, we even planned for the possibility of the monster girl turning hostile even though the effects stated that they would be a ‘loyal companion’. You know, since it didn’t say that it would stay loyal the entire time…
But then Odeta grinned at me and I immediately knew what she wanted to ask even before she asked it.
“Can we try fighting the monsters in there again?”
I gave her a look, “Really?”
“Come on, Sister Aster!! It’ll be just like before when we went to fight the wyvern with Big Sis Ardiolyta!”
The other girls gave me a questioning look and I just simply explained, “Odeta’s Amrap sister… Anyway, I guess we can do that… Since I guess it’s decided we would be staying here for a day after all… That is, if the others want to?”
Katsuki bowed her head, “I would very much like to experience what Mistress had to go through when you were growing up, Mistress.”
I knew she would say that…
Delmare slipped her hand into mine, “Me… Me too, Aster! I want to know more about you as well!”
“Ehehehe~ I want to know more as well, Aster~” Lisa giggled, wiggling her eyebrows at me suggestively.
Emilia also agreed, “I wish to see what you have seen as well, Boss.”
I bet Emilia wants the monster parts from the dragon… Since she already knows that we were in Dragon Sanctuary at the moment.
Ok, honestly… I also shared the same sentiment as Odeta where I wanted to go through the Dungeon normally as well, just so that I could see how I have changed.
I still remember how I almost died to one of the bosses as well… Yep, those were the days…
“Alright, but we’re definitely not taking our time in that Dungeon, ok? We’re going to use our full strength and not hold back. I don’t want to miss Mommy’s lunch.”
The girls let out a chorus of agreements before I led the way down into the Dungeon.
I was a little afraid that the Dungeon might have changed after all these years but it seems like that wasn’t the case.
When I reached the bottom of the stairs, a familiar infant Frost Wyvern was there, standing guard as the first monster of the Dungeon.
“Wait… The first floor is a Dungeon Boss floor?” Emilia muttered.
Right?! So I wasn’t wrong when I thought that this was weird! This Dungeon is the one that was weird!
Lisa tapped a finger on her cheek, “Well… This place is Dragon Sanctuary after all… They say that one should basically give up on common sense when they step foot here… I guess this is related to that?”
Wait… They say that? Why? What’s wrong with this place?
Before I could ask though, Odeta was already marching towards the monster, forcing us to move in after her or else we would be stuck outside when the fog wall appeared.
The wyvern let out a challenging roar when it saw us and I prepared to fight–
“LET’S GO!!!!” Odeta roared, charging straight towards the monster.
Even though this was an infant monster, it was still quite large in size so it wasn’t like she was charging towards a small monster, mind you.
But there she was, leaping up towards the wyvern that seemed to have completely been caught by surprise at my Amrap jumping towards it with her arms outstretched.
She ended up grabbing the wyvern by its neck and used her momentum to pull the monster along her flight path. The monster was actually lifted up from the ground and I could see panic in its eyes right before Odeta slammed it into the ground with a loud crash that shook the floor.
The body of the wyvern bounced once before crashing back down again and Odeta lifted her fist in preparation to punch it before stopping.
“Oh… It’s dead.”
…
Yeah… She just killed it in one shot…
And to think, just a few years ago, I was watching Odeta and her sister having to work together just to take it down…
But come on, didn’t you already kill a dragon by yourself, Odeta? This should not have been a surprise to you.
Still… You were really cool though~
