Today as I was having breakfast with my family, and the harpy chicks were playing around at the table or tasting food, I was called by Agatheina through the special artifact that she had given to me.
"Kireina-sama, I have good news! Two new Demigods have joined our Pantheon!" said Agatheina.
"I see… wait, what?! From where did those two come from?"
"You might not remember their names, but they are the two demigods who blessed Belle-chan!" said Agatheina.
"Oh? The ones that blessed Belle-chan? Hmm… Bovdohr and… Nomera?" I asked.
"Oh! You remember their name so well, to be expected of Kireina-sama… Before entering, they had to go through the requirements, and gladly gave away a piece of their divinities in the form of Elixirs. I have already sent them to your Item Box" said Agatheina.
"I see, well, in the classes of today, let's have a meeting with them in Morpheus's dungeon, in the same Biome as ever," I said.
"Oh! Very well then! Those two are so lucky to be able to see you so fast after joining us!" said Agatheina.
"Very well then, see you soon," I said.
"A-Ah! W-Wait a second, Kireina-sama… I wanted to congratulate you on your seven new children!" said Agatheina.
"Oh? The chicks? Thanks, they are currently playing around over the table and eating things… they are quite vigorous…" I said.
"Haah~ They must be just as cute as you, Kireina-sama! I hope that one day you can bless me with a child, or several of them too!" said Agatheina.
"Sigh… Alright, bye, Agatheina"
"A-Ah! K-Kireina-sama… wait for a second, I didn't intend to sound weird…!"
I decided to stop talking with her because she always gets like this whenever we talk for more than a few seconds.
"Mama!"
"Mama! Muh, muh!"
Nirah and Belle were currently sitting on my shoulders, while Vudia and Ailine were sitting on my legs just as always…
Anyone that could see me would think that I am a living spectacle, I had so many children sitting over my body as if it were fun or something.
But I could not help it! They were all too precious, even Nirah is an irresistibly adorable baby! I cannot believe that I have fallen into her charms and had already accepted her as my legitimate daughter… it was faster than with Yiksukesh. Probably because Yiksukesh is already fully mature aside from her looks.
"Ah, Nirah-chan, come down here, this meat is your favorite, right?" asked Vudia, offering a large slice of grilled meat covered in delicious sauce to Nirah. The little six-armed lamia began to drool as she moved down my body and caught the piece of meat. Her cheeks were filled with the meat as she munched on it adorably.
"Calm down, you're eating too fast, Nirah. Here, drinks some water" said Ailine, filling a glass with crystalline water with her magic.
"Sister!" said Nirah, grabbing the glass and drinking it with the meat.
"Mama, sister!" she said.
"I know, it was very delicious, right? But do not eat too fast, okay?" I said.
"Mama!" she said, nodding. She seems to understand a few words already.
"Mama! Muh!" said Belle, asking for my attention as she pointed out the freshly made donuts filled with forest fruit jelly that Rimuru had just prepared.
"Oh, you want one of these…. Isn't it too much sugar though?" I asked.
Adelle, who was sitting on my right side, spoke.
"I think one day is fine. She hasn't eaten her daily donut, so give it to her, she's an obedient girl and doesn't ask for more candies afterward" said Adelle, while eating an imitation of sushi made with native ingredients while sipping on an aromatic tea produced in the Desert Biome of Morpheus's Dungeon.
"Oh… So you eat a daily donut now? What a strange rule, here" I said, giving the donut to Belle, as she happily started to munch on it, her dual-colored fishtail danced around in happiness.
"Nom, nom!" she said.
"Ah, mommy, can I have more donuts?" asked Ailine.
"Hm? But of course, my little princess! Today is donut day! I made a lot with Chokumotsu-chan," said Rimuru, who was sitting at my left side.
"Thanks!" said Ailine, eating even more donuts by herself, even Belle glanced at her surprised.
"Ah, Belle, Ailine is a slime, she has fairly different physiology than you… eating any sugar or calories does not affect her, unlike you, who is a mermaid" I said.
"Muh… Muh!" said Belle, nodding, as if she had understood it.
"How can you expect our daughter to know what 'Physiology' means?" asked Adelle.
"Well… isn't she very intelligent? She seems to have understood simply fine" I said, patting Belle's silky hair, which was divided into two colors, dark and blonde.
"Oh right, the two demigods who blessed Belle-chan have joined with Agatheina and the rest of the other gods. We shall meet them in the Dungeon today, in the daily classes that my children have with them" I said, communicating the news with everyone at the table.
"Oh, really? Well, that's very convenient." Said Adelle.
"Even more Gods…? I wonder if talking with gods will now become a common thing… this isn't supposed to be like this though…" muttered Sofarpia.
"Well, we have talked so much with Morpheus… I would have thought that you would have already gotten accustomed to gods by now, sister" said Sofelaia.
"Ah… well, yeah, I guess I like to exaggerate things," said Sofarpia.
"I don't think it's over-exaggeration, Sofarpia-chan is quite right, talking with gods would never be something normal for us mortals… but I guess it is if we connect it to Honey, she is an abnormality amongst abnormalities, so it is to be expected of my beloved honey to accomplish many amazing feats," said Zehe.
"Hm, well, I am kind of a Demigod… You didn't know?" asked Yiksukesh.
"…"
"…"
"…"
"No, I didn't know, Yiksukesh-chan…" muttered Zehe.
"Ah, I suppose she is. Yiksukesh is the descendant of Jormungandr… although she seems to be something closer to the Living Deity species than a Demigod, she hasn't attained true divinity yet" I said.
"Hm, maybe you should free me from being a Dungeon Boss so I can level up," said Yiksukesh.
"I fear that the moment I do, you will go rampage everywhere. So no" I said.
"Muh… I would not do such a thing. Do you really think that I am a savage and insane monster?" asked Yiksukesh.
"Perhaps…" I muttered.
"Gah…! Mommy, Kireina is being mean!" shouted Yiksukesh, acting childish.
"Well, I cannot go against honey's will. For now, behave well to gain her trust, Yiksukesh-chan" said Zehe, caressing Yiksukesh's silky purple hair.
"Hm… okay…" she muttered.
"It is quite rare for a being like you to be so acceptive of a mortal treating you as a daughter… You snakes are quite shameless, where is your pride? Fufu" said the little Dragon Princess Athos, while laughing.
"You're asking me about pride when you transformed into a cute princess?" asked Yiksukesh.
"Gah... Y-You meanie! I did not do it of my own accord! I-I'm leaving!" shouted Athos, rushing outside the room.
"Ah… again… sorry everyone… Athos-chan, don't run…!" said Amiphossia, following Athos. She felt quite responsible for her servant's mental state.
"Yiksukesh-chan… you shouldn't provoke such reactions," said Zehe.
"But mother, she started it," said Yiksukesh.
"Sigh…"
"A-Anyways, the two gods also sent some elixirs made out of their divinities as a proof of royalty," I said.
"Hm… I wonder if little Belle can drink them? She can manipulate Divine Energy, right?" asked Nesiphae.
"She should be able to… but I don't want to risk it, and I prefer to drink these myself, the stronger I become, the better for everyone," I said.
"Yeah, it is better to strengthen yourself instead… our children are already so strong, and even developing Divine Energy, something that not even you can," said Brontes.
As I drank the two elixirs, Belle glanced at me while drooling…
"Oh, well, drink a bit of the two, but I don't want you to get stomachaches later," I said.
Belle drank a large sip of the two elixirs, immediately feeling satiated.
"Muh…" she muttered. Her aura shined brightly and began to increase in its quality.
"It seems that she did get a nice powerup from just sipping a bit of the two…" said Adelle.
As I finished drinking both Elixirs, I felt that my soul had undergone even more changes. It felt strong and even almost physical. Also, my understanding of things such as weather, darkness, and light, increased. I felt as if I had been studying such elements for years.

[Kireina] acquired the [Eclipse & Dawn Magic; Level 1] Skill!]
"Oh? A new Magic Skill… Eclipse and Dawn? It must be related to the Dark, Shadow and Light Attribute… interesting"
"I wonder if Belle got it too?" asked Adelle.
After having breakfast, we decided to quickly move to Morpheus's Dungeon and meet with the ethereal projections of the Gods.
It was the first time for the seven chicks to meet them, as they were just born yesterday.
The seven harpies glanced at the god's presence with surprised and shining eyes.
"Chirp, chirp!"
"Chirp…"
"Chirp!"
"Chirp? Chirp?"
"Chirp…!"
"Chirp, chirp, chirp!"
"Chirp! Chirp!"
The only thing they could talk about was 'chirp'… but they had all a certain personality it seems. They were way too adorable, their colorful feathers and small sizes made even the most serious of gods get their hearts melted.
"T-They are really precious…" muttered Merveim.
"We must… protect them," said Morpheus.
"They are… so cute!" said Marnet.
"Ah, it reminds me of our Harpy Sister, she is the ancestor of Nephiana and these chicks after all… should we call her over?" asked Maeralya.
"They are very cute indeed… and no, I don't think it's a good idea to bother our sister like that, Maeralya-chan," said Levana.
"Haah~ Can I take care of them? I will be a good nanny" said Hodhyl.
"They are indeed precious little chicks~ Hehehe, oh? That one has a large affinity with light" said Nomera.
"And that one seems to have an amazing affinity with darkness and shadows," said Bovdohr.
"Ah, you two wanted to see Belle. Here she is" I said, raising Belle to the skies.
Belle raised her tiny little arms as if she were the greatest one in here.
"Muh, muh!" she said.
"Indeed, it is our blessed daughter," said Bovdohr, patting Belle.
"She is so adorable~ Hello there my precious daughter~ You're shining so bright today!" said Nomera.
"Anyways, I heard Agatheina saying something about you wanting to serve me? Why is it so fervently?" I asked.
"Oh! Right, Kireina-sama, we had been 'guided' by you!" said Bovdohr.
"That's right! We had the most beautiful of dreams… and you were there… since that moment that we had finally comprehended our destiny, it was at your side, for all eternity" said Nomera.
"A dream…? Are you serious? I don't remember 'guiding' anyone in a dream though…" I muttered.
How could this happen? Am I unconsciously blessing other beings through dreams? But how could I bless two demigods?
"Err, let me ask you something… did you got some kind of a blessing in your system status?" I asked the two.
The two demigods nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, it is the mark that you have guided us, Kireina-sama," said Bovdohr, who had quite the bizarre appearance for such a calm personality.
"Yes, we have it, Kireina-sama. We are part of your blessed children now" said Nomera.
I cannot believe it… Did I bless gods by accident? And I did not even realize it…
"It might be because you two have a certain affinity with Kireina… perhaps more gods or mortals will show up in the future, 'guided' by Kireina," said Morpheus.
"Kireina's control over the Dream Attribute in the Realm of Vida must be very strong as well, there isn't any strong Dream Attribute God in this Realm, so such control had been almost completely given to her," said Agatheina.
"The control of dreams… I suppose I got to inform you about something else… inside of my soul" I said.
