Chapter 22 - Peace At last... Nevermind

"What's the deal with you two?"

They looked over and chuckled at me, acting like they were high and mighty. The Other students moved away, somewhat wary of the two kids.

"You wouldn't know. After all, you don't even look close to any of the others I know, But because I pity you, let me introduce myself, I am [Ganymede], and this is my Sister [Europa]. We are the eldest children of [Jupiter]."

As they spoke, I would look amused; now, this really went in my favor. Turning away, I spoke to them before leaving so they could get off my tail.

They froze up, and I chuckled as I talked about [Sun]. Now, it reminded me of long ago, in another world where my past had lived, but reminiscing about the past will only hold me back. As I left the lunch line while getting my food, I would look at it and shift it into Chicken Legs.

As I walked out of the lunchline, A girl stood with what seemed to be her younger brother. It wouldn't be [Rocket Science] to assume they were more children of [Jupiter] or what I like to call him [Zeus]. At least, it isn't related to the mythological Zeus the people of my world had made.

"Is there anything you need?"

"Nothing much. Were they bothering you? Also, what'd you say to make them freeze like that? I wanna use it as well."

Since I didn't want to blow my cover early, I would make up an excuse, though I might tell the truth sooner or later.

"Let's say I had some fun talking about their childhood, and when they were kids, I doubt they'd want to go against one of their father's friends."

"Alright, I'll take your word for it, Callisto. You can also call me Cali if you want to; what's your name?"

"Call me Kaida or Lilith. I go by either name; you can shorten it to Lily or Kai. I have another name, which some people call me, Eve, but that was from a long time ago, before [Jupiter] was born."

Callisto listened to me ramble for a bit. I didn't mind talking, and I felt a sense of calmness around her. As I finished, she said she would speak more formally, which I immediately denied as I wanted to be treated normally.

"Don't treat me like a Noble or Royal; I'm just another normal person. Think of me as your friend or someone you're making into a friend."

As I finished speaking, IO looked surprised, which gave off the vibe that people close to their parents acted high and mighty just because of that.

"Alright, I won't, though it feels weird, and I don't want to do that accidentally with my Father. But alright! Shall we go to my room?"

I would nod, following her as I talked with Cali. She was quiet but looked like she wanted to speak. Asking an unprompted question out of the blue about the other two

"I assume [Ganymede] and [Europa] are your older siblings?"

"Yeah, though they're very spoiled by Dad, I don't mind it, though, since they don't mess around much with us; Oh! I also have four of my other friends coming, which are [Triton], [Selene], [Titan], and [Titania]. Just a heads up, Titan and Titania aren't siblings since Titania is adopted by [Saturn]."

This talk about planets made my brain run wild. As My mind was running wild, I would look at the others. IO looked like a nervous teenager and had some decent clothes, though it was expected from someone who is a child of [Jupiter] because he seemed like someone of high status. I wouldn't let my brain run on overthinking about this.

"You alright Kaida? You seem somewhat confused."

"I'm Fine. I was just thinking of something!"

I nodded as if I was all right. I started breathing slowly to calm myself down as someone entered the room; he wore shades and looked a little shorter than IO, but that was to be expected as he was six foot tall; the other guy had some darker grey in his hair, but primarily grey; I could recognize that he was [Triton]. It was easier because I had seen them grow and gain their moons.

"Looks like everyone's here, so I'll introduce you all to a friend I made who is also a friend of [Jupiter]."

I looked over, smiling, and ate before the food got cold, swallowing it whole. This included the bone, but I didn't mind; I looked ahead and saw [Triton], who looked scared of me; I guess I reminded him of the Tenth, who didn't get along with [Neptune], I Guess that carries over in other universes as well huh...? I chuckled and then stopped as Cali began her explanation.

"This is Kaida; I met her in the lunch line; she's the only person to ever make [Ganymede] and [Europa] freeze up, excluding our parents, who got mad."

"Nice to meet you all! As Cali said, I'm Kaida or Lilith; you can call me Lily or Eve."

I could feel the aura of someone behind me. It was the mini star I made. I didn't name her, so I'll just call her [Amaterasu]. I would then shake my head as I didn't think I'd name another of my creations after a Godlike Entity. Besides [Zenuanouramasa], all the others were named after Gods and Goddesses.

On the other hand, the others looked scared from seeing [Amaterasu] since she looked like a mini version of the [Sun].

"Don't worry about her; she's one of my creations, which I call [Amaterasu]; she won't hurt you, though, so don't worry. Why don't you try patting her head? She likes it!"

As I said this, Cali got closer and tried touching her head. She noticed it was warm, but it didn't burn her hand. Soon, IO and Triton began patting her head, and she looked happy having this happen to her; I could even see Mini Solar flares coming out of their body. I chuckled before lifting her up and using 『Sora』 to keep them in the air while following me; they weighed almost as much as the Sun yet were this small; it was apparent my bones would be damaged, so I quickly restored my collarbone using『Reversed Tempera』

"What now?"

They looked over at me and shrugged, unsure what to do now. They had just come here and talked about random stuff they'd seen. So I looked around and then at them, looking at Cali's Hair, and spoke.

"Why not talk about space? I mean, it seems interesting."

"I don't mind it, but why space? It seems random, and you said that after looking at my hair... Does that mean my hair looks like space? I thought it looked more like a purple mess."

"It's the only thing I could think of, but why don't you start off IO? You seem like you want to talk; of course, someone else can go if you don't wanna."

"It's alright, I'll go; I like Space anyways."

IO was first as he began talking about planet formation while Cali, who went after him, was thinking of something; I didn't mind much, but once IO Finished, I was next instead; I looked confused.

"Isn't it Cali's... Whatever, I'll go. I'll talk about my experience in space or what I call Astronomy; I've fallen into a black hole before. Still, I'll tell you it's excruciating if you go into it, which is obvious, but you don't get spaghettified or turned into a noodle. I was transported to a different universe, which was extremely hard to get used to, only to get back here by traveling into the same black hole. However, I landed on another planet and got brought back here, which was a wild ride."

"Wait, can you survive in space!?"

It was Titan. As I nodded, he looked surprised. The others were trying to hide such shock, so I sighed and continued to speak.

"As I was saying, I had an artifact with me to keep me alive in space, But I did cause the destruction of a star or the explosion of one after crashing through it; it sounds crazy, but if you want proof, I can show you!"

They would nod no as they didn't want to witness the death of a star, which could cause them to be possibly blinded just by looking at it.

"Well, I guess that's all for me; you all have anything to involve space?"

I looked at them, and Titan began talking to us about space. I wonder why I wanted to talk about space; maybe it's because they're named after moons and planets? I don't know anymore.

"My Mom [Saturn] told me that there exists a woman who rules over a place burning indefinitely, being able to keep an infinite amount of people inside of there, and it exists above the universe!"

"T-T-Titan, I don't think that's r-r-real, and it's just used as a f-f-fairytale to scare us as kids."

I choked on my own spit as I looked at them, talking about Hell so nonchalantly; I'm pleased that I didn't keep the nasty personality I had during that time.

"Oh, I swear to God. Are you taunting me on purpose?"

"D-Did I do anything wrong?"

A girlish voice spoke. It was the girl next to [Titan]. I was rude when I said it in the middle of her sentence and with a rough tone; it scared her, so I would apologize.

"No, I'm just thinking about something, and I remembered it, which annoyed me; sorry about that."

"So U-U-Uhm, It turns out our parents are named after what people from our media call Spheres, or Magic Circles, But they also planets, B-But Our Grandma H-Hides the fact there's a T-Tenth Planet Which means T-The Tenth Child O-Of his.-"

Even in other worlds, people have a problem with stuttering. With how much this world has advanced, I would've thought they had found a cure for that or had been able to fix it.

I would look at her as she spoke, and the others would listen intently while interested; I would do the same even though my name meant Little Dragon. Still, my last name has more heavy implications, being the name [Amaterasu], which may be why I named the star of mine [Amaterasu].

I looked to the roof and saw a small crack as if a person was watching us; I got up and jumped up through the roof and hit someone on the head; how they sneaked into this place when it was a separate Location which was infinite was unknown and how they damaged it was also a question I could ask. But that was irrelevant; they were spying on us, so I had to get rid of them, but For now, I'll just-

I got punched in the face. The attack sent me flying back as I hit a wall. I got up and looked; I could easily recognize them as demons, seeing as they only had one horn. They were on the same level as an imp, but that wasn't something that should make you underestimate them; even if they were the weakest form of demons, they were still strong; I could see more proof they were demons as they had red skin which was melting off their body and I could see their muscles and even bones; it was undeniable that this person was a demon now, It was undeniable because I had analyzed their body using [Mana Detection]; they had a [Quintessence], It was similar to a Core from the Core Formation Realm except on a larger scale, I didn't explain it before because I didn't need to. But someone else will explain on my behalf to help me.

["A Quintessence is one perfect form; it embodies all past, present, and future lives they used to live, is living or will be living; it also contains one Spiritual and Conceptual Existence. It is also the reason higher entities live forever and can reincarnate; their bodies rely upon Quintessence. Usually, no magician can affect the source because the Sea of Genesis prevents people from destroying concepts."]

"Thanks for the Information, Ana."

[No Problem Master]

Yeah... Usually, someone can't destroy a concept; by this point, you [Readers] should know I can only bypass it from the speech about my backstory if you were stupid and skipped a chapter.
