Death’s Daughter Chapter 15

CHAPTER 15 – VISITOR

Upon returning to my room and taking a bath I crashed onto my bed. Today was more than exhausting for me and falling asleep would be so sweet. It was only after I had spread  across the entire bed that I realized I am not alone in it.

It took all my willpower not to scream out as I jumped out taking out a sword from my
inventory. I don’t know anyone that would enter my room let alone my bed, so if this person is here to attack me I will fight back.

“Don’t run away my cute little Nao-chan. Is this how you greet your patron?”

There was no mistaking it. The person lying shamelessly in the bed was none other than Thanatos-sama. That sweet voice and perfect body was the very peak of handsomeness. The moment I saw him lying like that I remembered that kiss and turned completely red.

“Th-Thanatos-sama what brings you here? I thought you couldn’t interfere with this world.”

“I am not interfering… much. Besides you are not from this world so talking to you doesn’t count. Think of it as a loophole. Also I am somewhat special so thanks to that you can see my magnificence again.”

Yes, I am so very glad for that, but I am definitely not telling him about it. He motioned me to come closer and my feet moved on my own as I sat down on the bed still some distance away from him. Before he could do anything to me I needed to come up with a topic to talk about.

“How come this world’s people believe only in twelve gods and you are not among them? Weren’t you supposed to be in charge of this place?”

“Most likely since I pushed off most work to them so I can have a peaceful life. There are still beings that worship me but they all belong to the ancient class of beings. If you meet them now you will most likely end up dead on the spot.”

How awful. But just who exactly is Thanatos-sama? Maybe I should look into mythology to learn more about him. It would be a shame not knowing about such a smoking hot person. After all he’s my patron. And that face… I wish I could stare at it all day long but something keeps on stopping me from focusing on it. So annoying.

As my thoughts ran rampant thinking about him I was suddenly reminded of a certain
ability this person had when he suddenly burst into laughter. Oh my God, he read my mind!

Abort mission! Stop thinking about your wild fantasies and distract yourself Naoko.

“Why can’t I change my class?”

“Your mind is as lively as ever Nao-chan. Hmm, your class you say, just try tapping thebclass on your status screen and you should be able to change it to any class that you unlocked before. I didn’t think this would happen when you got the [Tabula Rasa] skill. It is an interesting development. Also I must say that I am happy that you were able to contact the Elementals. Those guys were starting to feel a bit lonely.”

Those poor little things, I bet they wanted to connect with humans and other creatures
for a long time but nobody ever knew how to see them and therefore they never got the chance to interact so much. Huh? But how did he know about it? I don’t remember telling him anything about it.

“Don’t think too much of it Nao-chan… it is like reality TV show, but each person has its own TV channel. I must say that yours is by far the most entertaining one. Watching you break all common sense. It is the most fun I had in years. I had the night you took the Queen title recorded and safely stored. Who would have thought you could be like that from talking to you like this. It is a complete change of character.”

Just what did I do that night? I hope that for your own safety you did not think of peeking at me while I was bathing. I swear I will hit you even if you are a god. I looked at him searching for any kind of reaction, but his expressionless poker face really made me hit him even more, however, I decided against it in the end.

“Why is this world so similar to a game? Like with status, experience and levels. I don’t think that this would be something of a normal thing to do when creating a world?”

“It is because at the time of creation of this world, games were really popular on Earth. And that is where the inspiration came from. Don’t think too much of it. Just enjoy. I know that you are quite good with this kind of games. Plus, since you are not limited by the game rules that are usually in place you have more freedom to develop any kind of character with any amount of skills. Something that you are already making use of from what I see.”

Is that so? Well I really should thank the god that created this place that he was
influenced by MMORPG games so that I can really do my best here. I was certain that even if I started late and was behind others in status I will be able to catch up and later on stand on the summit of this world.

“I should thank you for the skills that you have given me. They will allow me to catch up faster and I can take a day or two off as well. But you should do something about you not being known at all. Don’t you want to have more people to know your name? Aren’t you also a god of this world like the other guardians?”

“No, I quite like this situation. I can laze around all day long and there is nobody that
keeps on telling me what to do. I only step in here and there when I feel like doing something. Now if there isn’t anything else you should go to sleep. Before I leave I will leave you with a little something. Now, sleep!”

I wanted to talk some more but my eyelids became heavy and I felt extremely tired.
Forcing my eyes open I saw the perfect god smiling as he tucked me in like I was a child.

“Sleep tight my cute little Nao-chan.”

***Nord’s POV***

“Wake up guys! Lassie’s in danger I can feel it in my bones. We need to go now!”

“Shut up Nord…. It’s dead of the night. You’re dreaming.”

“Naoko…safe…Orzak.”

“But our little lass…”

“Just sleep already!”
