Chapter 61 - Another Departure

"Hey Hex, you owe me 2 Shining Golds, Smiles was the first of the Hunters to find a mate, HAHA!"

Crimson's comment made Hex grit his teeth as he begrudgingly wired Crimson 2 Shining Golds, as he spat out "There. I hope you choke on it!"

This caused Crimson to start howling with laughter. "HAHAHAHAHA! Ahhh sucks to suck! Hey Hex, I wrote you a poem, it goes a little something like this.

My win, your defeat, I got myself a nice little treat. If you want me to stop, and for it to be quick, then get on your knees and suck my dick!"

Midas was taking a sip of Clockwork God Whiskey: Fire Lable(tm)*, and upon hearing Crimson's "poem", accidentally inhaled the whiskey into his lungs and began to choke-cough, interrupting whatever the other Hunters were doing.

"Hey, princess, you need me to perform mouth to mouth? If not, then get the damn whiskey out of your lungs and quit sounding like a smoker."

Midas glared at Skull so intensely that Skull took a step back and raised his hands slightly while saying "Hey man, chill, it was a joke. You might be hot, but I don't swing that way."

Ace snorted at Skull's not so tactful comment, which caused Divide to snicker, Hush to giggle, and Ghost to sigh.

Ace chuckled and said, "Alright folks, 23 more minutes until out Lunch is up!"

Divide hesitantly asked "Shouldn't we be heading back down now to help the fight?"

Midas grunted out "We have 90,000 of our personally trained Royal Guards, and that amazingly talented dipshit manning his obscenely customized mech. They're good. If anything, the dipshit would be more than enough to win. The level of firepower that mech contains is enough to make even ME lightly sweat."

Hush cocked her eyebrow and asked, "What the hell sort of weapons are on that giant tin can that makes the one Hunter among us 9 that was CREATED to be able to take a beating well above what we can, sweat?"

Midas glared at Hush and snapped back, "Does 6 million Void class nukes that can reach speeds of Mach 2.8 million put a little pressure on you? How about 24 rotatable "Buster Casters" that Boss herself builds? Oh! Let's not forget the 4 deployable hover-turrets that fire beams of pure Destruction divinity?"

The other Hunters stare at Midas in horror, while Divide curses. "What a fucking lunatic! I can't believe Boss let Leeroy have that sort of firepower! Well, it's not like any of us wouldn't be able to overcome that sort of firepower, but it would hurt like hell."

Ghost nodded and chimed in. "Indeed, that's an obscene amount of potential destruction. There's enough boom in there to send anyone even minutely weaker than us straight to kingdom come. On the bright side, Leeroy seems to be quite capable. I'm monitoring him now, and he's killed well over 60, 200-meter-tall Titans, and a little over 43,000 Titans in total. Only part that's damaged on his mech is the paint on his right shoulder. His hand-to-hand combat skills seem to quite high, though I can't accurately predict what he's going to do next. He's a genius in battle, but quite lacking in the mental department outside of combat."

Crimson snickered and joked "Well damn Ghost, that's gotta be the most I've ever heard you speak at once, way to go!"

This earned her some chuckles, as even Ghost smirked underneath his mask.

Feeling a sudden surge in the surrounding mana, the Hunters were all caught off guard when they saw Myr step out of a portal with a picnic basket as large as she was.

"Sup folks! I'm here with some homemade snacks. You can all sit the rest out; we've already won this war."

Ace looked at Myr and asked "Um, Boss? Did you kill the god or gods in charge of this world? It's too far gone to be ruled by a peaceful entity."

Myr nodded and grinned. "Yeah, it was a version of Zeus, super annoying. I only killed an assassin god that came from our native Divine Realm. Chloe killed Zeus, and our children killed all of Zeus' wives, who were just as horrible as he was, if not worse."

Divide instantly sat sieza style in front of the picnic basket and took one of Myr's freshly made cookies.

Taking a bite, Divide was in bliss when she felt a tap on her shoulder. Snapping out of her daze, Divide sees everyone, including Myr, staring at her with their eyebrows raised.

Looking down, she saw that the platter of cookies was empty. Connecting the dots, Divide heavily blushes and mutters "Sorry, they were just so good..."

Myr patted Divide on the head and gave her a warm smile. "I'm just happy when people enjoy the food I make. That wasn't the only platter of cookies. I have sweets, meat, soup, bread, salads, drinks, and anything else you'd ever want, so help yourself. I also invited my family here, so absolutely no swearing in front of Chocola and Vanilla. I'm letting you all know right now that if I catch wind of you teaching them that sort of language, I'll beat your ass black and blue."

The Hunters nodded and Divide smiled. "I'm honestly excited to see Nox again. Last time we spent a few hours just studying different subjects together and sparring. I found out I'm decent with a razor whip."

Narrowing her eyes, Myr responded with "That's indeed impressive. A regular whip wouldn't work in combat unless it's reinforced or enhanced with magic and/or qi. A razor whip, however, would be potentially devastating in close quarters combat. Meet me in sparring bay 23 after we wrap things up, I'd like to test you myself. If I find your skills check out, I'll personally make you a fully customized razor whip."

With her eyes sparkling, Divide excitedly nodded and began to eat with gusto, shocking the rest of the Hunters with just how much she was eating, though not in a gross way, as even though she was eating extremely fast, she was doing so in a polite manner, using utensils, napkins, and making sure not a single crumb landed on the magic platform.

Giggling, Myr smiled and brought out enough food to fill everyone's stomach. Everything from burgers, steaks, rips, fish, salads, desserts, juice, water, soda, alcohol, and even baked and grilled King Reaper Fish steaks/fillets.

Just then, a black and red portal appeared a little way behind Myr, and out walked Chloe, Tenshi, Nox, and Team Neko.

Chocola and Vanilla were still a bit sleepy, but upon smelling Myr's food, quickly woke up and darted over to Myr.

"Mom, can we eat now?" Chocola asked with a hopeful smile.

Smiling back, Myr nodded. "Sure, go-ahead girls, there's plenty for everyone!"

This caused everyone to smile as they began to dig in, and as usual, Myr was picked up by her waist and sat down in Chloe's lap.

Starting to feel the "urge" as she called it, Myr felt her body heat up marginally as she began to slightly fidget in place.

Not one to miss this detail, Chloe grinned and whispered "Don't worry love, I'll help you after this little meet and greet~"

Lightly blushing, Myr distracted herself by munching on a platter of fried drumsticks. Picking one up for herself, Chloe took a bite and gasped. "Myr, what the heck kind of bird did these drumsticks come from?! The amount of life force I gained from a single bite is beyond what I could gain in a weeks worth of training!"

This garnered the attention of everyone present. As if hearing the unasked questions, Myr shrugged her shoulders. "Those 3-legged golden chickens we find walking and flying around Nekopara. I tried getting rid of them all, but no matter how many trillions I kill off, more just keep taking their place. Eventually I got tired of killing off trillions at a time and just put out bounties for their capture. Turns out they don't fight back and are tasty to boot."

Nox deadpanned and flatly corrected Myr. "Mom, those aren't chickens, those are 3 Legged Golden Crows. The reason there's so many is due to the fact that you keep killing them off. They're pack animals and they have an insanely fast reproduction speed. How many trillions did you kill exactly?"

Myr frowned and stared off for a couple of seconds before saying "450,330,998,887,000 of those pests in total, why?"

Everyone's faces deadpanned. Tenshi dryly laughed and added "Mom, there's an almost 100% chance the amount of 3 Legged Golden Crows across the entire Outer Realm is most likely many millions of times that now. They are tasty though."

Myr frowned once more and flatly said "If they become too big of a problem, I'll just erase every single one of them from existence. Besides, I can create whatever I want from magic, I can re-introduce the species."

Everyone sighed and thought 'Well, at least Boss/Mom is the same as always...'

========

"Never thought I'd see the day where Eden was invaded. Levi, do you think we'd even be able to slow down the number of Titans without the Clockwork Technocracy's help?"

Levi snorted at Erwin's question. "Of course not. Just one of those 200-meter-tall Titans could completely destroy the entire city, and they're far too big to use our maneuver gear to climb them. That giant metal soldier though, I'm more terrified of that. Just one punch was enough to kill a 200-meter Titan, and it's killed a little over 60 of them, and not a single part is damaged."

Pausing for a moment, Levi decided to add "I hate to admit it, but just one of the Clockwork Technocracy's Royal Guards could most definitely kill off the entire Survey Corps without breaking a sweat, and a lot of the movements they perform are simply impossible for us to do without passing out. Their general is a force of his own. He was impossibly fast and extremely agile. Erwin, we could train our whole lives and never be as good as that inhuman soldier."

Erwin nodded his head and looked over the entire battlefield that was riddled with craters, smoke, the occasional fire, Titan skeletons, and still dissolving Titan Corpses.

It should be noted that the Royal Guards were performing an in-depth clean sweep of any Titans that may be lurking in the forest and surrounding areas. You could see many flashes of red, silver, and gold, which would signify the death of a Titan.

Eren zipped up next to Levi and asked "Captain, Miss Myr wants to-"

"Save it Eren Bombastic, I'm right here."

Erwin, Levi, and Eren all whipped around and saw Myr standing behind them with all 9 Hunters lined up behind her.

Walking up to the 3 with a calm smile, she stops just 10 paces away. Flying a tiny bit into the air, Myr looks at Eren and flies slowly over until she's but a mere 4 paces away.

"Kid, you did good. Don't think I didn't see you use your Founding Titan form. I can also sense you're a mere half-step towards being a mage. A really weak mage, but a mage, nonetheless. I can give you the nudge you need, but that would require a global exchange."

"By that you mean magic would be introduced to the world, right?" a voice asked behind the 3.

Cocking her right eyebrow, Myr replied "You're absolutely right Armin. Magic would be introduced to the world. It will happen either way. The moment the ruling god of your universe died, the entire flow of fate surrounding this universe was severed from the omniverse, a collection of multiverses, which house countless universes.

As such, there's no telling what your universe's future holds, but I can tell you this: Magic will be introduced into the universe regardless of whether or not Eren accepts my gift. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but I highly suggest you accept. After all, by your universe's standards, that would give you a status as the Progenitor of Magic. Add that do your Titan shifting abilities, and there's no limit to what you can accomplish.

I'll also tell you another piece of information, that being Eren is on the verge of breaking through to Soul Tier 3, which by the omniverse's standards would mean he'd have developed a Hero's soul. At that point, it will only be a matter of time before he achieves godhood."

Erwin, Levi, Eren, and Armin were absolutely shocked by this information, and couldn't help but feel that, although they didn't really know anything about Myr before, they knew her even less now.

Ace asked in an inquisitive tone, "Boss, you sure that was a smart move telling them that? They look like they've just made an epiphany that shattered their minds."

Chuckling at the expressions the 4 gave Ace, Myr waved her hand in a dismissive fashion. "Don't sweat it, I'm sure the commander has a bunch of plans right now~"

Thoroughly annoyed with Myr's comment coupled with the shit-eating grin he'd come to loathe, a vein on Erwin's temple popped out as he grumbled "We appreciate the help, but do you always have to find a way to piss off either myself, Levi, or both of us?"

Myr giggled, to which Smiles cackled and said in a jovial tone "Ahh don't shit a brick, Boss is like this to a bunch of people. Besides, it was hilarious to watch you bozos try and find Boss because of a little arts and crafts project."

Realization dawned on Levi's face as he exclaimed "The scantily clad demon women that were painted on the sides of the wall worshippers church, the metal machine that chased people around at night shouting something about touching it's "tralala", the foul images drawn on the Military Police while they slept that couldn't be washed off for a month, arts and crafts... that means-!"

"That's right! You thought it was Boss that pulled those pranks, but it was me, Smiles!" ゴゴゴゴ

The world's color palette reversed itself while a dramatic close up of Smiles' face and upper torso presented itself in front of everyone.

Myr, who was already desperately struggling to keep a face that was *barely* straight when listening to Levi list off the pranks Smiles pulled, absolutely lost it and burst out laughing at Smiles' reference.

"PAHAHAHA! OH, MY GODS, AHAHAHA!"

Laughing until she started crying, Myr wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and grinned at Smiles. "Smiles, you won. Looks like you did manage to make me laugh after all."

Heartily laughing, Smiles pumped her fist, something that quite a few people would've found cute, except for the fact that the person who did this was seen as unhinged at the very best.

Turning towards the 4, Myr gave them a warm smile. "All jokes aside, it's nice knowing that you didn't die Eren. I haven't told you this, but Mikasa was supposed to kill you after you basically committed high treason."

Eren was in shock when he heard Myr say that. Looking down, Eren began to truly think about what exactly the future held.

Feeling a hand on his shoulder, Eren was surprised when he saw Myr giving him a warm smile and saying "Don't sweat it kid. As long as you keep true to yourself and surround yourself with friends and family, then you'll never have to worry. Cover eachother's backs and make lots of memories together."

Myr then tapped Eren's forehead, causing a pulse of magic to burst out of Eren's body in a ring that soon encompassed the world.

Surprised at how strong he felt, Eren gazed in wonder at his hands as he clenched and opened them repeatedly. Looking up at Myr, he surprises her by giving her a hug in front of everyone.

"Thank you, goddess Myr. Thank you for all of your help. I know my mother would've loved to see you. The help you and your nation have given us. I promise we'll never forget it."

With a small smile, they broke apart as Myr looked at her watch. "Looks like times almost up. One last thing before I go."

Expecting Myr to make a speech, both Erwin and Levi felt their gear become lighter. Checking his gear, Levi was shocked to find the inside of his blades were carved with extremely lewd pictures and in general, were wrecked. The same was with Erwin's blades.

Looking to where Myr and her Hunters were, they only found a single note. Picking it up, Erwin opened it, only to receive a face full of confetti and the words "I win" written inside.

Smirking, Erwin looks up at the sky and quietly said "Safe journeys, goddess Myr."

========

Feeling prayers and well wishes flooding towards her, Myr was quite surprised by the sheer deluge of Faith try to latch onto her core.

Snorting, Myr filtered the energy from the amount of Faith received and condensed it into a physical pellet the size of a small marble, storing it in a separate room she designated the simple name of "Faith" that would contain all of the physical manifestations of the Faith she had received.

Despite not having any true connections in that universe of Attack on Titan, Myr still felt a longing that she realized had never gone away.

Thinking back and processing her feelings, Myr remembered all of the smiling children, and the young trio of Eren, Mikasa, and Armin, and it finally dawned on her what she had been longing for.

'Ah, so that's it. I.. I guess I really do want a biological child. Hais, I don't-'

Feeling a rising heat in her body, her eyes widened as she tried to suppress the rapidly growing warmth, only to fail repeatedly.

Collapsing to her knees, Myr felt an "itch" deep within her.

Her sudden collapse alarmed the Hunters, as although they didn't know what happened, they could tell that Myr's combat effectiveness was dropping at an insane rate.

Myr managed to look at her hunters and quietly say "Get Chloe, now!". Aced nodded and teleported to where Chloe was, which was outside her and Myr's room.

Rapidly knocking, Ace didn't have to wait 5 seconds before Chloe opened the door and frowned. "Remember what I-"

Ace, who was already extremely stressed, snapped. "Yeah yeah, stuff a sock in it. Bo- Myr is down in the living room on the ground incapacitated and there's a strange scent surrounding her."

Widening her eyes, Chloe's expression became serious as she quickly said, "Let's not dawdle then", before teleporting a little way away from Myr.

Sensing Chloe before seeing her, Myr threw herself into Chloe's arms as she started shivering. "Chloe, I.. I want.."

With a smile and gleam in her eyes that seemed as if they came from an apex predator with its prey in its mouth, Chloe looked at the Hunters and sent them a voice transmission.

'The next person who interrupts us is getting killed. No exceptions except for our children. You've been warned.' before walking with Myr in a princess carry to their room.
