The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat! - Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Your name is Domus Chapter 164: Your name is Domus “So, now that you’re in human form, can you still handle the things you did when you were living in my subconscious?” Alice asked and Leo tilted his head to the side.

“Well, more or so.” He said.

“Wait, what does that mean?

Is that a yes or no?” She asked and he nodded.

“Don’t worry.

It’s all under my control.

The only difference right now is that I’m standing next to you.

And don’t worry,” he took two steps towards her and said, “…I will never leave your side.” He smiled and she smiled back at him.

“Then I guess I’ll have to believe you, as always,” she said.

“After all, you’re not just the voice in my head.

You’re my friend.” Hearing Alice say that really made him feel warm.

She considered him more than her support and the voice that kept ordering her around, and that was what was important.

“Now, let’s let the baby griffin out.” She stretched out her hand, opened the triangular door, and the baby griffin walked out on all fours.

It would’ve fallen but Alice caught him right away.

Its skin was smooth for a monster that would grow to have steel for skin.

“Hey there,” Alice called softly, and the little monster squirmed in her arms.

“What’s it doing?

Does it hate me?” “No, Alice.

it’s just trying to get comfortable.” Leo explained.

But then the grifflet bit Alice’s palm with its beak.

It didn’t hurt at all but it managed to leave its print on her palm.

“What did it do now?” She asked.

Since she had no idea how to train a baby monster, she was completely clueless about its actions.

“It imprinted on you.” Leo said and took the grifflet from her.

“It just recognized you as its owner or master, whatever term you’re comfortable with.” “Hm, really?

It’s got a really weird way of doing things.” She said, looking at her palm that suddenly had a spiral printed there.

“But what does it mean initially?” “Well, it doesn’t mean much.

You can just take it as a sign to recognize your monster.” Leo said and pushed aside the budding wings of the grifflet to show the same spiral.

“And you don’t have to feel like you did anything wrong because it was the one who imprinted on you, not you doing it.

In a way, it feels safer like this.” He said this but it did not make her feel any better.

Prints like this one were only given to slaves, she thought.

But Leo was right, the monster chose her.

And if she were to look at it in another way, it was the one who caged her in this pact and not her.

She laughed as it yawned.

It was cute.

“Now would be the perfect time to give it its name.” Leo said, and Alice nodded.

She had come up with the perfect name.

“It’s a male, right?

So, I’ll call him…” She smiled as the name played in her mind.

Leo equally smiled, hearing the name in her thoughts, as well as its meaning, and closing his eyes.

“It’s fine.” He said and looked down at the grifflet.

“Your name is Domus,” “Shriek!” The griflet let out a little shriek of excitement.

“It seems to like the name.” Alice said, tickling underneath its chin.

“Domus, I’m not an emotional person but I’d like you to know that wherever you go in this world, you will always have a home.

Even if it’s not with me.” Domus liked her touch and rubbed its head on her hand.

She smiled.

“Okay, let’s let him fly.” Alice said, placing her hand on her hips.

“He should be able to do that now, right?

After all, he’s grown bigger than the last time I saw him.” “Yeah, given how many mana stones he eats a day, it’s understandable.” Leo said and they both sighed wearily.

To train a kid was not easy.

“So, now that you’re here, who’s gonna clean up after Domus?” Alice asked, tilting her head but Leo threw his gaze away, exempting himself from such a disgraceful job.

“Let’s just fly.” He quickly changed the subject and his feet slowly left the ground.

She followed after him.

Leo was, of course, the constellation who had been granting her powers all along, so he had powers of his own.

His powers were vast compared to hers, so even if he did not have some sort of skill set or stuff like that, he could still do whatever he wanted.

So, currently roaming the Earth, Alice was no longer the strongest person, yet the strongest person could not actually partake in a fight and needed her.

Leo would never be able to directly interfere in a fight, so in all, he still needed to supply Alice with his power gradually.

If he could partake in the fights directly, he would’ve ended it a long time ago but that was impossible.

The world they created had laws that even he couldn’t break.

“I think this is high enough.” Leo said and Alice looked down.

They were very far from the ground.

“You sure?” Alice asked.

“I mean, it’s just a flight test.

We don’t have to go this far to test Domus.” “Alice, let me remind you.” Leo said and then dropped Domus to her horror.

“Domus is a monster of the wild, and this is how you train a monster to be fearless.” Alice wanted to go down and save it since it wasn’t able to flap its wings but Leo caught her arm.

“What are you doing?

Let go.

It’s going to die.” “If you go to save it when it’s falling, how will it learn to use its wings?” “But…” She was anxious and looked down at Domus.

“We came this high for a reason.

With the amount of time it’ll take to get to the ground, it should already know how to use its wings before it’s too late.” Leo said.

“Trust me, Alice.

This is the only way to teach it.” “And if it’s not?

If Domus hits the ground and becomes a platter of blood, will you resurrect him and try over again?” She asked, her eyes furiously glaring at him but he did not feel anything from it.

He expected this reaction.

“Then let’s do this.

Let’s count to ten.

If Domus doesn’t learn to use its wings after that, I’ll tell you how to use gravity force to help him without even moving from this spot.” CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Author_fredah kay, lets do this
