"Alright." Blake put his pants on. Only then did he remember Destiny was in the room. He looked over at the girl who had turned around, her ears red. "Sorry Destiny…."
"It-It's fine! I just remembered the stove is on." Destiny ran out of the room, trying to hide her embarrassment.
Blake scratched his head as he let out a sigh. "Well, hopefully, she forgets in a few days."
"Don't worry, she is just not used to it." Noa chuckled as she hugged Blake.
"Now then!" Ishtar clapped her hands together. "Nanaya will be back soon. She went to get a few things from my personal guard. They have a transcript of how to use astral energy. It is similar to magic, but the way it is used is much different. But I guess before you do anything you should eat."
Blake rubbed his stomach and nodded. "This I can agree with."
"I will get you some special astral beast meat. Now that you have astral energy within you, you can eat the meat of the monsters here. It will also strengthen your body more." Ishtar gave Blake a smile before disappearing. Blake walked out of the room to find Destiny in the living room. She was staring blankly at the magic tv that had the movie on it but paused.
"Destiny, sorry about earlier." Blake walked over and placed his hand on top of her head.
"It's fine… I am just… I don't even know. Papa, will I one day fall in love and marry someone?" Destiny decided to change the subject altogether.
"I am sure you will but of course only after I have checked to make sure that person is worthy of my cute little girl," Blake replied with a teasing smile. Destiny smiled back as she leaned her head back and looked up at her Papa. "It might be hard. They have to match my standards too."
"No matter what you decide in the future, I will always support you. But for now, even if your body looks much older, you are not old enough for boys. You do not need to force yourself to grow up just because you look older than you are." Blake hopped over the couch and sat down next to Destiny, and pulled her into a hug. She smiled and snuggled up next to him. "For now, you just need to understand your new powers. Discover what you truly want to do and follow your dreams. Me, your Mamas, and everyone else will help you in any way we can."
"Mmm!" Destiny nodded as she slowly closed her eyes, falling asleep. She had not slept much the past few days as she had been worried about her Papa and Mama but now that she was finally relaxed, she took in her Papa's warmth and fell asleep.
A few hours later, Nanaya finally returned with a massive book in her hand. It was half as tall as her and much thicker than her as well. By this time, Lillia had already woken up and was currently occupying Blake's lap as punishment for leaving her in the bed and not being there when she woke up. "I brought it! That damn general was a stickler! Hmm? Where is Mama?"
"Your mother went out hunting. She said she was going to get some monster meat for us to eat." Blake replied.
"Ah yeah, now that you can take in astral energy, you can eat the meat of the special astral beast here. You are in for a treat. It will be very good for the both of you." Nanaya smiled as she placed the books on the table in front of them.
"Ishtar also said something about the special astral beast. What is that?" Blake asked. He had meat up in the city before, so he was unsure what this special astral beast was.
"This is why I did not take you to some of the stalls in the city, as they are not something your body can handle. Regular astral beasts do not have astral energy in their meat. Which makes them safe to consume for everyone but…. The special astral beast has pure astral energy within their meat that, when eaten, will infuse into your own muscles and bones, making them much stronger. Although the effects only work for the first few times you eat it. After that, it just becomes a delicacy." Nanaya explained. "Anyway, this book is what you will be training with from this moment on. I had to wrestle it away from the general as he pretty much worships this book. It has both pictures, and words written inside that tell you how to cast the spells that come with astral energy."
"Then we will once again be in your care, Teacher Nanaya." Blake teased. His words caused Nanaya to blush and smile at the same time. She seemed to like being called teacher.
"I will do my best to teach yo…." Nanya suddenly went on guard as she moved not in front of Blake and Lillia but Destiny, who was curled up on the couch next to Blake.
*Bang!*
A fist suddenly appeared out of a crack in space. But Nanaya, with gritted teeth, pushed her powers to the max forming a barrier to protect everyone from the impact. "Ea!!!!!!!"
"Oh? To think Ishtar's little one was able to withstand ten percent of my power. But no matter what, you need to move. The girl must die." Ea cold voice filled the room. He was nowhere to be seen, but his voice echoed through the temporary base as if he was standing right next to them.
"Sorry, but that will not happen." Nanaya was breathing heavily as she reached out and stuck her into a golden square and pulled out a large golden shield that had dragons engraved on it. "You will not harm a hair on this family even if it costs me my life!"
