As I arrived home, I wasted no time in sharing the news with Yuri and Albedo about the possibility of opening a gate to Nazarick.
Yuri's eyes lit up with excitement at the prospect of reuniting with her sisters and meeting the other denizens of Nazarick. Her enthusiasm was infectious, and I couldn't help but smile at her genuine joy.
However, Albedo's reaction was like a dark cloud looming over our sunny conversation. Instead of joining in Yuri's excitement, her expression turned as sour as week-old milk, and a frown set up camp on her forehead.
It was like someone had unplugged the happiness meter and replaced it with a grump-o-meter.
Now, I'm no mind reader, but I could practically see the gears turning in Albedo's head. Knowing her, she's probably worried that opening a gate to Nazarick means less quality time with me.
I mean, can you blame her? I am that handsome after all and once again I am not being narcissistic.
With a reassuring smile, I patted Albedo on the shoulder, hoping to ease her concerns. "Don't worry, Albedo," I said, channeling my inner therapist, "we'll still have plenty of time for our...uh, quality bonding activities."
"You promise?" Albedo's voice was like a tiny mouse squeak.
Who is this cute creature? She didn't look like a succubus ready to genocide all humans in my name. More like a puppy who just wants to play fetch or sex in her case.
Note to self: don't let the adorable facade fool you.
While I was busy reassuring Albedo and sharing a moment of tender bonding with Yuri, Raynare, the fallen angel maid who I had... ahem... "acquired," seemed utterly lost.
"What type of nonsense are you talking about? What is this Nazarick, and why are you going there?" Raynare's voice cut through our conversation like a chainsaw through butter, her tone dripping with skepticism.
Now, normally, I'd be all for explaining the ins and outs of our latest escapades, but given Raynare's rather... unconventional position in our household, I figured it might be best to keep her in the dark. After all, ignorance is bliss, right?
But apparently, my attempt at discretion didn't sit well with Yuri. Being the stickler for formality that she is, Raynare's lack of decorum grated on her nerves like nails on a chalkboard.
"Excuse me?" Yuri's voice was like ice, her demeanor suddenly frostier than a snowman's armpit. "I'll have you know that maid training includes proper etiquette and respect for your superiors. So I suggest you watch your tone, young lady."
I couldn't help but stifle a laugh at the sudden shift in atmosphere.
"Leave it, Yuri," I interjected, trying to defuse the tension before it escalated into a full-blown showdown. After all, there's only so much drama I can handle before my popcorn runs out.
"Raynare, Nazarick is my home. You really need to watch your tone in the presence of my other subordinates, otherwise, you might find yourself meeting Neuronist sooner than you think," I added with a chuckle, hoping to lighten the mood with a bit of dark humor.
But it seemed Raynare didn't quite catch the joke, her expression still as serious as a heart attack.
With a mental shrug, I decided to shake off the awkwardness and dive into the task at hand. Opening my system interface, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement coursing through my veins. It's not every day you get to open a portal to another world, after all.
With practiced ease, I navigated through the menus and options until I found what I was looking for: the portal creation feature. With a few deft taps on the screen, I began channeling my reservoir of Karma points into the creation of the portal to Nazarick.
The air around us shimmered and crackled with energy as the portal began to take shape, its swirling vortex of colors a mesmerizing sight to behold.
"Here goes nothing," I muttered under my breath, feeling a mix of anticipation and nervousness.
With a final flourish, the portal stabilized, its surface rippling like a pool of liquid silver. Stepping forward, I gestured for Albedo, Yuri, and Raynare to follow me.
"Shall we?" I said, flashing them a confident smile.
Without hesitation, Albedo and Yuri stepped through the portal, their expressions was of excitement.
Raynare hesitated for a moment, her gaze lingering on the portal's shimmering surface.
"Are you sure about this?" she asked, her voice tinged with uncertainty.
I nodded reassuringly. "Trust me, Raynare. It'll be an adventure you won't soon forget."
With a determined nod, Raynare took a deep breath and stepped through the portal, disappearing into the swirling vortex of colors.
