After spending the night in the Garden of Everlasting Spring, Kousuke returned the next day after spending time with the Goddesses as promised.

 

He believed that he heard that it was not a good idea to spend a lot of time in the Garden of Everlasting Spring with a physical body, so he asked Eris.

 

“It won’t be a problem for you now.”

 

Eris replied.

 

It seemed that his divine energy and physical body as a living god were adjusting in a good way, and he wouldn’t have any problems even if he spent a prolonged period of time in the Garden of Everlasting Spring, the divine world.

 

However, even if there was a problem, Asura would take care of it, so he did not need to worry about it.

 

She would have stopped him from the start if it was dangerous.

 

With nothing to worry about, they finished interacting with the Goddesses as planned, and he returned back to Amamiya Tower.

 

This time, the Goddesses sent him off.

 

Kousuke was sent off by more Goddesses than he had expected, but he was still able to activate the return spell to the Tower without fail.

 

After watching Kousuke disappear from the return spell, one of the Goddesses muttered.

 

“…I wonder when he’ll come back again.”

 

“Don’t be so unreasonable. In the first place, it’s because he’s over there that we’re able to receive benefits like this.”

 

“That’s true, isn’t it?”

 

Similar conversations were being exchanged between them.

 

As if to blow away the atmosphere, Eris’ voice rang out.

 

“Hai hai. We’re closed now. I understand that you all are lonely, but please go back to your duties.”

 

Once Eris’ order was heard, the Goddesses left the scene.

 

Only the Three Great Goddesses and Asura remained.

 

“I understand how lonely it is, though.”

 

Asura, grinning about something as she looked at Eris.

 

“Hmm? What is it?”

 

“No, no. It’s nothing.”

 

Asura’s attitude made Eris want to rebuke her, but she held back.

 

She felt that if she rebuked Asura too hard, she might become a snake and bite her back.

 

“I see. Well, we’d better get back, too.”

 

Eris urged Spica and Jal, who were watching the two of them.

 

“Yes.”

 

“Ye~s.”

 

Spica and Jal knew they were being used as an excuse to leave and compiled, knowing that if they made fun of Eris now, they would be in trouble later.

 

And so, the three sisters left, leaving Asura behind.

 

“…I wonder when I’ll get to see you again.”

 

Asura’s muttered words disappeared into the wind without reaching anyone’s ears.

Kousuke returned to the Administration Floor of Amamiya Tower. He quickly headed out of the Tower with Kouhi and Mitsuki.

 

They were headed to where Kousuke met Kouhi and Mitsuki.

 

Kousuke didn’t remember where it was, but Kouhi remembers.

 

“This is where I met the Master. How could I possibly forget?”

 

Kousuke had asked her how she remembered, and that was her answer.

 

They made their way to the location.

 

The purpose, of course, was to bring home a new member.

 

That new person was soon spotted.

 

There was something sitting there that was not supposed to be there.

 

Even the Black Bear, which had been a bitter experience for Kousuke, didn’t even try to get close to it when he saw it.

 

“…Unexpected, or should I say… It’s as expected…”

 

Kousuke muttered to himself, but Mitsuki laughed and remarked.

 

“Well, they’re the ones who created us. I guess it’s to be expected.”

 

He had already told the two of them what they were here for.

 

“It made sense for it to be the same as us though… No?”

 

It was Kouhi who said that.

 

The being in front of Kousuke and the other was not an angelic being like Kouhi and Mitsuki.

 

It had wings but it was not feathery like what Kouhi and Mitsuki had. It was scaly. Like a reptile.

 

What the three of them saw before them was a dragon.

 

Its form was that of a Western dragon.

 

This was not surprising, since dragons were common in the upper Floors of Amamiya Tower. However, no matter how Kousuke looked at it, it seemed to be of a higher rank than those dragons.

 

Such a dragon was staring at Kousuke.

 

Normally, Kousuke would have shrunk back from this scene, but strangely enough, he did not feel that way.

 

Not much time had passed, but for Kousuke, it felt like days had gone by.

 

Suddenly, the dragon moved.

 

Instantly, its huge body glowed, and after that, a woman jumped towards Kousuke.

 

“Father…!!!”

 

[When did I have such a big girl… ?] Kousuke was left to his own thoughts.

 

Kouhi and Mitsuki didn’t do anything to stop the woman, since they knew who she was.

 

“Uh… Um, are you really our new…”

 

“That’s right! Ah! Please give me a name!”

 

Before Kousuke could finish asking, she had already answered.

 

While being hugged, Kousuke pondered for a while.

 

In the end, he couldn’t come up with a good one, so he just looked at the white hair in front of him and gave her a name.

 

“Then, your name will be Haku.”

 

Incidentally, the color of her scales when she was in her dragon form was also white.

 

“Haku… Haku… Haku… Haku… Haku…”

 

She repeated it a few times, and eventually grew fond of it. She increased the force of her neck clenching hug even more.

 

“Father, thank you!”

 

“Haku, that’s enough. Keep going and he’s going to collapse.”

 

Kouhi gave a rare shove.

 

Mitsuki, on the other hand, was holding her stomach, trying to hold back her laughter.

 

“Kyaaa. I’m sorry, Father!”

 

Kousuke thought to himself while his consciousness was fading. “I’ll have to correct her from calling me Father before we go back to the Administration Floor.”

In the end, by the time he got back to the Administration Floor, he couldn’t correct Haku, who still insisted on calling him Father.

 

He did his best to tell her to change, but he failed, after Haku pointed out to him, “Father is Father!”

 

From there, they used the transfer gate to return to the Administration Floor via Yurino Shrine.

 

Haku was looking at the Administration Floor with curiosity at first, but then she greeted Sylvia, who happened to be walking out of the administration area of the Southeast Tower, with vigor.

 

“Nice to meet you, I’m Haku, Father Kousuke’s daughter!”

 

Hearing this, Sylvia initially tried to return the greeting with a smile, but it instantly froze.

 

“Koko koko, Kouke-san, Kousuke-sama! Mumumu, what did she mean by Father? You have a daughter with someone already!?”

 

Sylvia’s screeching voice brought those in the Administration Floor together.

 

“What the? What is the meaning of this?”

 

“Who? Whose child is this?”

 

“It’s not mine!”

 

“Wow, it’s not mine either!”

 

Kousuke’s hand was holding his face as the Administration Floor became chaotic all of a sudden.

 

“Everyone, calm down. If such a big girl really existed in the first place, there’s no way you wouldn’t notice, right?”

 

Kousuke’s follow-up was almost pointless.

 

“”””” No, it’s possible if Kousuke(san) is involved!””””

 

Mitsuki finally started laughing uncontrollably when they all answered in unison.

 

Even Kouhi was trying to hold back her laughter.

 

“No, I have no children! That is not the case! Listen to me!”

 

In the end, he had to take the time to explain everything from scratch.

 

Meanwhile, Haku was looking around the Administration Floor, seemingly oblivious to the commotion she had caused.

 

After a series of explanations, everyone finally accepted his reasons.

 

“But. If that is the case, isn’t it true that she is your daughter?”

 

Kousuke didn’t have an answer to Floria’s question.

 

Haku’s attitude and how she was created had made him realize that it was meaningly to rebuke with the reason: ‘nothing physical happened’.
