Chapter 364 363. In My Domain.
Looking at hysterically laughing figure in front her in horror, Hana's gaze subconsciously fell on the "soul" in Eshwar's hand, the more she gazed at the blob of concentrated blinding bright light, the more she felt her familiarity with it grow.
Of course, it could also be her own delusion which could be caused by Eshwar's strong words from before, but she couldn't shake off the feeling about his words being true.
Yet, her gaze didn't flatter.
"I'll kill you!" She mumbled.
"But you can't, because," Eshwar muttered, but before his words were completed, she was thrown out of his domain which had stretched to the oblivion.
***
In my domain.
"But you can't, because," I muttered and sent her away without completing my words.
Only after I kicked her out of my domain, did the words I wanted to say left my mouth.
"You love me too much." I sighed as I glanced back at Erebus and Pyre, who had solemn looks on their faces that broke down as soon as they felt Hana leave. I simply tossed the "control panel" into my sub-space, as it wasn't the time to fiddle with it, at least not yet.
MEERRROOWWW~
Erebus's growling "meow" sounded, which made him look cute unreasonably. But, even though they, Erebus and Pyre, had grown excessively over the year, their habits had yet to die, as I gazed at Pyre turn smaller with a puff and slump down comfortably on Erebus's head, as he, instead, walked towards me and hugged me, stroking his head against mine while purring in delight.
Soon, my expression too crumbled as I smiled softly while strongly ruffling Erebus's fur, making him purr again.
"You gaddamn cat, you have grown too big to act like this!"
*
I took a step forward after cuddling with Erebus and Pyre a bit, as soon as I felt a footing come into contact with my foot, the space in front of twisted ominously before shattering, opening up a path for me to walk through, which I did, without hesitation.
The crack was big enough for me to pass through without anything hindering me, although the crack itself oozed ominous dark purple hued smoke, it didn't bother me even a bit, but what was displayed in it, certainly did.

"Alright, alright, I get it, I'm old, as old as a fossil, I get it, so can you just stop? For.....sakes!"
"This stupid.... No, aren't I too old to be a fossil? I mean, I'm like at least, in a minimum approximation, a billion years old, unofficially." I muttered, and a billion meant, ones, tens, thousands, ten thousands, one lakhs, one millions, one crores, and finally, one billions, which was 1,000,000,000 compared to these numbers, 1,722 years didn't feel that big of a deal, due to which I didn't feel that odd feeling anymore, unbothered by the number of years counted, I stepped into the crack, that oozed ominous dark purple hued smoke.
Upon passing through the crack, I arrived at another, significant side of the domain, where a humongous clock, coupled with a pair of Earth-like planets with Saturn-like rings surrounding it came into sight, which you guys too should be familiar by now, which were of course, planet Earth and planet Antinoüs.
The golden, healed, clock was ticking properly as it counted the years of my life and recorded according to its own significance, but that didn't bothered me, as it was the only thing it could only, if it was inside my domain, while it was under my control even when on outside, then I gazed back and noticed a few sets of humongous system windows displaying different scenes with many known people, who were "also" being monitored. Looking at everything still in place without much major changes, I took a step forward again.
And again, a crack opened up in front of me, in which I stepped in, traversing to yet another significant side of my domain.
This side of the domain was filled with soothing, countryside vibes, with a pair of small houses which had a single, merged, large vegetable farm in front of it with various vegetables ready to be harvested, while at a certain distance, paddy was seen flitting around, swaying rhythmically to the calming breezes of the unnaturally blowing winds.
Though everybody present in here had the authority to move in and out of here, none really bothered to go outside as everything in here was peaceful, in stark contrast to the things outside.
Feeling my presence, four figures walked out of the houses, 2 beautiful woman, a handsome man, less handsome than me, of course, and a little girl.
No, I'm not narcissistic or anything, it was just something I had written about "Max," the villain of my novel, "he was most handsome man," and after a bit of exaggeration, "he was the most handsome man in the entire world," was what I had written, a living piece of art that died early due to the atrocities he had committed was what Max was created as, but now that I'm living in his body, there is no way I'd want to die.
Ahem! Again! Feeling my presence, four figures walked out of the houses, a beautiful woman, a handsome man, my stunningly and breathtakingly gorgeous wife, and my breathtakingly adorable daughter.
The handsome man, my wife, and my daughter, smiled visibly upon noticing me, while the other woman, who stood next to the man, smiled inwardly with a slightly brighter face, enough to make one understand that she too was happy to see me.
Not much time should have passed, at least in my domain, but looking at them greeting me this warmly, made me smile naturally.
Who would dare reject affection?
If one did then it's just that that they are afraid of losing them "again," but it, the wall they built around themselves, could be broken by the persistence of the giver.
Floating towards them, I first gaited towards the other pair with my arms wide open, though we are neighbours, we barely see each other as they don't come out as often as we do, which is understandable as they have "things" to do while we can't do the same as we have a daughter, though she is understanding and "that" is nothing much in the eyes of the omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent being such as herself, it is too much in the eyes of our daughter.
Or so, my beautiful wife decided.
Which I had no other choice but to comply as a husband.
"Zephyr~ taking a break?" I asked teasingly and hugged him.
(AN: "Zephyr" introduced in ch 322: Monsters)
"Of course, why else would I come out to meet your a*s?" Zephyr grumbled yet returned the hug.
He was my friend, or, Eshwar's friend, if you understand what I mean. Well, he was a demon with a likeable character, whose fate has also been twisted due to my interference, just like that of my novel's.
(AN: a friend is mentioned in ch 137: ???(cursed), that friend mentioned there is Zephyr.)
"Why?~ you should come out to meet me, after all I didn't hold you back from going back to the demon domain, back when we were still in sector one." I said, still teasingly, but the fact that he did leave me behind amidst monsters when I was only a five year old kid seemed to have pricked deeper into his consciousness that he winced every time I spoke about it, which made him feel guilty for whatever reason.
I got the reaction I expected, "Guhk...." Zephyr groaned under his breath, in response to which, I smiled teasingly and backed off before walking towards his woman.
I bowed adequately, in response to which, the woman held out her ungloved right hand, I planted a peck on her knuckles before standing straight and looking into her eyes which had gained back a bit of their lustres thanks to Zephyr.
"I can still erase 'those' memories, if you want, ask me anytime you feel reluctant to accept Zephyr." I said and backed away upon noticing her nod.
Her name was Jewel, as Zephyr named her, she was none other than the dragon princess, whom the emperor had "kept." I had "regressed" her body to the time she was still a young and pure, beautiful princess of the dragon domain, but she still had all of her memories, which she wished to bravely confront before accepting Zephyr completely, though she had opened up for him, making love was still a bit too hard for her to bare, mentally, but she had taken steps gradually and they were enjoy each other's embrace and cuddle, which were the "things" I said previously.
If you thought of something else, then.....
You naughty, naughty, hehehe.
I then gaited towards my family, picked up Eunomia, Mia for short, hugged, threw her up, not by much of as much as I wanted, into the sky trice, and spun her around before kissing her forehead which made her giggle, and she soon rushed towards Pyre and Erebus, who were running towards us from a distance.
I glanced back at Mia's rushing back and noticed her throw a subtle thumbs up at me, which made me feel extremely touched.
'Your father won't let you down, my daughter, and will work hard to get you a younger brother or a younger sister soon enough!' I swore inwardly and resolutely turned my back at her.
"Why am I last? Shouldn't I be your first and get your first priority?" My beautiful wife grumbled with a pout.
"I always save my favourites for the last!" I replied in a heartbeat, and smiled perversely when my gaze landed on the violent blush adorning her face.
