Chapter 9: Minato's magic circles and his world's uniqueness
After playing with magic circles and discussing it with Bei, Minato realized his Overlord Mana.
It was a terrifying thing, actually.
Although it brought just two things to Minato's arsenal, these two powers were devastating powers that anyone would exchange for.
First, if Minato wanted to get offensive power, his magic circle would draw a sucking out effect. For example, a kill magic circle turned into life-sucking magic.
Secondly, if Minato wanted to get defensive power, his magic circle would bring out his psychique's diamond defense.
It would take the form of a transparent golden wall.
Of course, Minato faced the consequences of using these two circles.
His mana allowed him to use [Kill] three times at most.
The same went for the defensive magic circle!
Minato wasn't discouraged, and he had already begun practicing his body to get more mana. Besides that, Yuna noticed that Minato's psychique became weaker while he used a defensive magic circle.
"It's fine," Minato replied.
He sat cross-legged on a circle Bei had prepared for him. That was a circle that drew mana from the world, which allowed the husband to quickly level up his stamina. His body adapted quickly, and he was growing into a monster.
Minato jokingly called it Mana Bath, but that was precisely the name for this magic circle.
"I will take you to Husbando Overlord's world now!" Aya's hand went up.
To her words, the two beauties nodded.
An unknown power enveloped their bodies, and these two smiled faintly at Minato's spirit. Their reaction wasn't just a gesture but also approval.
Aya understood that she couldn't just take these two to Minato's world on a whim!
High Spirits' Royal Bloodline came with many benefits, but these two were also unique on their own.
Spirit nodded after Minato's family ended up successfully coming to his world, then turned to him, "I am all alone with Husbando Overlord!"
"Haha. Come here," Minato smiled and gestured to Aya to come.
He patted her while focusing on the mana bath.
"It's so comfy in Husbando Overlord's embrace!" Aya commented, then shortly after, her eyelids closed.
She went to sleep first out of all the people.
-
After Minato had practiced enough, he took Bei's magic circle to his inventory. He then followed his family to his world.
In that world, Bei and Yuna had talked about various things.
It began with the world's inspection.
Minato's world was nothing but barren land without any mana. However, Bei possessed enough things to plant a few mana sources.
Her eyes expanded with shock when Minato's world heightened those mana sources! Rather than sucking them to nourish the world, Minato's rune helped her treasures grow in mana instead!
It was pretty troublesome!
Secondly, the ladies talked about their household.
They estimated their time with Minato before someone from their family suspected something.
"Brother's birthday is approaching. It would be bad for both of us to not appear," Yuna said with a little saddened smile.
She was reluctant to split with her husband, but her brother was a kind person she loved. It would be best if they all could meet, but that was not possible with Minato's current strength.
Bei saw through her elder sister and said, "I can come out with a few excuses for your disappearance, Elder Sister."
"I am not so sure about it," Yuna faintly smiled.
"I can't bear to see you in such a state!" Bei replied, then Minato appeared in the world as well.
He had Aya sleeping in his arms, and it seemed like he heard a little of their talk.
Bei and Yuna stared at him, forcing Minato to talk, "If it's brother-in-law's birthday, you should go. By the time it comes, I will be more or less adapted to this world."
Out of all people, Bei had the most significant reaction.
She didn't let anything transpire on her face, but all family talks coming from Minato's words somehow struck her.
It wasn't just Yuna, who wanted to introduce her husband to her family, but also Bei wished to lend a hand.
Of course, Minato quickly changed the topic so his wife wouldn't bring out any arguments.
"It's time to sleep. Are we going to sleep here or in another world? I don't mind either."
"This world. We should start getting used to your power," Yuna sweetly smiled at her husband and headed to the bed.
In his world, many things were simply scattered around.
Minato followed his wife while saying, "I should make a house here... And many other things, right?"
"Leave the garden to me!" Yuna giggled while sprawling on the bed.
It was already so different from her life in the High World or Earth. In either case, everything was already here.
But Minato's world forced them to build things on their own.
Yuna had positive thoughts about their future, "Bathroom should be a priority, Minato."
No one wanted to sleep without taking a bath first.
Minato understood, so he nodded while putting Aya not too far away from them on the bed.
Bei also awkwardly climbed her way up, taking a spot near the spirit.
"Your world strengthens mana sources... I wanted those to grow up some nature, but your rune just increases the mana source?! What the fuck is it?!" Bei cursed while turning around, not daring to face Minato.
Minato peeked at her while hugging Yuna, "Don't I need a dungeon or at least part of it?"
"Mana shapes up the world. It should help you bring some nature, but we might need specific mana for everything, I guess... Fuck! So mundane work ahead!" Bei explained without forgetting to curse.
Minato just shrugged and closed his eyes.
Inwardly, he thought, 'We, hmmm. Well, she is already a big part of my world.'
Those thoughts didn't slip from the cheerful wife who was cuddling with him!
The first night in Minato's world went without any problems.
The couple didn't cultivate as it was impossible with two others sleeping together in their bed, but it was a nice sleep nonetheless.
Bei found it hard to sleep at first, but she gave up soon.
Aya was already sleeping, and she woke up first!
"Husbando Overlord! Thank you for taking care of me!" Aya woke up first and felt a soft bed on her back.
She called Minato, but her hands covered her lips rather immediately.
Why? Because Minato and his wife were sleeping together, but Bei also hugged him from behind!
That was... "A move done through sleeping. She will blame sleepwalking soon!"
And Bei did as Aya thought!
It was quite an exciting and loud morning!
"Exciting, my ass! Goddamnit fuck!" Bei cursed...
At last, Minato and his family arrived in the first city, which would become their first base for some time!
