"HAHAHA! NICE, YOU GIRLS FINALLY GOT PARTIAL MASTERY! WE'LL EAT ALL YOU WANT TOMORROW!" I laugh out loud after checking my daughter's status.

"M-mom, how about for our reward… can we change it to no training tomorrow?" Freya asks, slightly raising her hand.

"Nope, you'll still be training, but you can pick whatever you want to eat tomorrow,"

My daughters groaned before finishing up their dinner, and just as we were about to leave, a familiar figure came into the throne room, fidgeting with their hands.

"I assume you've come to give your answer?" I ask Zehar, who stood near one of the entrances of the throne room.

"Y-yes…" Zehar stutters.

"Okay then, I want to hear you say it,"

Zehar continued to fidget with his hands while everybody in the room was confused. They threw gazes at Zehar and me with slightly turned heads.

On the other hand, I was waiting for Zehar to say that he wants to be my son instead of me offering it once again and him accepting it.

"W-w-will you let me be your son?" Zehar asks.

Finally…

Even though Zehar had asked the words I wanted, he continued to shiver with nerves that continued to flow through his body.

Everybody in the room was shocked as they kept jolting their heads back and forth, waiting for me to explain.

I wasn't surprised, though, since I never consulted with anybody about this. But there was one thing that I believed, and it was that Kumo and Homura would be understanding as they know of what happened to Zehar.

"Of course… well then, please welcome my newly adopted son Zehar to the family. I know some of you are suspicious of him as his aura and looks seem suspicious, but… how about he explains his story, and maybe you'll change your mind," I say, gesturing for Zehar to sit down.

Zehar, of course, takes me up on my offer and takes the only seat left, which was between Hades and me. Hades, of course, was still slightly suspicious of him and didn't like him on a personal level, so the glare he shot at Zehar made sense.

"H-hello, my name is Zehar, and I hope you'll take care of me from now on," Zehar says, trying to make eye contact with the rest of my family.

Most of my family members were receiving while others, like my children, weren't keen on accepting him yet. Either he has to prove his power or prove that he loves me as a mom… which I doubt he sees me as a mom yet.

"It seems your now new brother and sisters aren't accepting of you…  Is there a way for you children to accept him?" I say to Zehar but then turn to my children.

"Does he really love Mom?" Freya asks, slightly raising her eyebrow.

"I don't see her as my mom yet, but I'll try my best," Zehar says, receiving glares from not only my daughters but also Hades.

"*sigh*... How about you explain what has happened in your life till now," I sigh, patting Zehar's back, slightly comforting him.

Zehar then proceeds to open his mouth and explain what he had been through his entire life. Even some parts that my wives and I didn't know about.

The maids in the room who were the most suspicious of him started to feel pity, and so did my daughters, but…

"And how do we know you're telling the truth," Hades says, crossing his arms and raising his left eyebrow slightly.

"How about we get little Yin to use [Lie Detection]. She can't lie to her Mistresses; otherwise, she'll get punished," Aika says.

Once Aika finished her sentence, Yin rose out of the shadows, kneeling one knee in front of Aika.

"You have called," Yin says.

"Huh… call me mistress. In fact, why do you call Arpious 'Master' when she's not even a guy?"

"B-because she told me to call her 'Master,'" Yin says.

Oh yeah, I guess my pets should call me mistress… I should also give my wives full authority over my pets… And my children… well, I guess they can get some authority.

"Yin, you must call my wives and me 'Mistress'; otherwise, a punishment is waiting for you. Plus, whenever my wives or I call for you, you will be in front of us no matter what you're doing… unless you're out on a mission cause then only I can call for you with [Grand Mind Magic],"

I'll decide whether I truly want my children to have authority over my pets later...

"Yes, Mas- Mistress," Yin says, fixing her sentence.

Good...

"Mistress, you have called," Yin says, fixing her previous sentence from before when Aika called for her.

"Good girl… Use [Lie Detection] on Zehar and make sure he's telling the truth… and if you don't, I hope you know what's coming," Aika says, slightly licking her lips.

"Y-yes, Mistress," Yin says, slightly noticing how much harsher and crazier Aika is than me.

She immediately activates it, but the only sign that proved she activated it was that she hadn't blinked even once. Even as her eyes started to dry up, she didn't blink, causing some pain and redness to form, so Zehar immediately started to explain his life once more.

"HUFF HUFF HUFF… He wasn't lying," Yin says, catching her breath and rubbing her eyes profusely before wiping away the tears that fell down her cheeks.

"Good girl, do you want a reward?" Aika asks Yin before my children could respond.

"I-I want a reward," Yin stutters.

"Okay, then how about you be my-"

"Aika, not at the dinner table," I say, cutting off Aika from going any farther.

Aikas reward was much different from my soft and gentle reward… and Yin might be traumatized, eventually avoiding Aika... which I didn't want as of now.

"Fine... So do you children believe Zehar now?" Aika asks, turning away from Yin, who was completely oblivious to what Aika was about to do to her.

"Hmph…" Freya and Luna say, turning their heads away but I could still notice slight traces of pity.

"Fine, then you have to kiss mom on the cheek," Hades says, clearly taunting the already nervous Zehar.

"HAHAHA!" I laugh out loud with Aika.

"How about you give us a kiss on the cheek before you start telling Zehar to do that!" Aika shouts, hardly trying to suppress her laugh.

"tch... F-fine…" Hades says, getting out of his seat and first walking over to Aika.

Aika had a large smile on her face as Hades slightly pecks her cheek, and before Hades could escape, Aika hugged him tightly.

"M-mom… you're too strong. It hurts," Hades complains, but Aika didn't let go.

After a few more seconds of Aika hugging Hades tightly, she finally let him go as he stumbled back, trying to catch his breath.

And once he felt he recovered, he slowly walked over to me and gave me a peck on the cheek. And before he could escape, I pulled him into a hug that lasted just a few seconds.

"HUFF HUFF HUFF… Alright, now you do it," Hades says, stumbling back to his seat while almost gasping for air.

I laughed internally at how embarrassed Hades was before Zehar stood up.

He gave me a hesitant peck on the cheek before sitting back down in his seat, face flushed red in embarrassment.

It was pretty entertaining seeing the arrogant, cool and collected Zehar looking like this, so I gave him a hug when he least expected it.

"M-master," Zehar says, clearly struggling from the strength of my hug.

"Nope, what do you call me now?" I say as I continue to squeeze my new son tightly.

"M-mom… y-you're suffocating me," Zehar says, clearly still embarrassed.

"Good, good, now you don't have to be so nervous. I'm not like your previous parents, so just trust me, and I'll make sure to take care of you," I say, lightly stroking the back of Zehar's head.

"Y-you don't have to stroke my hair," Zehar says.

Just as Zehar complains about my embarrassing act, I retreat before giving him one giant kiss on his cheek before returning to my seat.

"So, Luna… Freya… greet your new brother," I say.

"Nope!"

"I don't want to!"

"Seems you're going to have some trouble with them," I say to Zehar while slightly chuckling to myself.
