[Spirit Blessing] has gained +30 Skill Proficiency]

Oh! It gained +30 this time… It is really random though. Now it has around 270 since I acquired the Skill a few hours ago. If we continue like this, in a day or two it might reach Level 2. Which means even more enhancement to my spirits, and more EXP earned! But well, we have to first get to the dungeon and earn EXP though!

"Alright, have a nice day! Thank you for everything! See you soon!" Mary said, waving her hand.

"Nooo! Don\'t go yet!" Cried Mist, as she was being restraint by Lucia\'s snake tail.

"Mist don\'t be pushy, you can\'t just stick with them forever…" Sighed Mary. "They said they\'ll come tomorrow."

"B-But I wanna go dungeon diving too!" Mist said.

"You\'re just a little baby girl." Sighed Mary.

"I am almost the same age as them!" Mist said while pouting angrily.

"But you\'re not as strong, aren\'t you?" Mary quickly stopped her from saying another word as Mist lowered her head, fully knowing she was quite weak. "Well, you have a good talent for healing magic, and even light magic, something rare for demons, but you need proper education in magic, things we can\'t afford yet…"

"Uuggh… I wanna explore, fight, and be with my new frens…" Mist began to cry while resting over Mary\'s shoulder.

"Dear, we can teach you basic magic later, and even build you a magic circle." My mother said.

"Eh?! Really?" Asked Mist.

"But that will be tomorrow, maybe." My mother said. "Now be a good girl and go back home, you got many siblings there, right? What would they think if they saw you preferring us than them? Wouldn\'t they feel bad?"

"R-Right…" Mist quickly cleansed her tears with her clothes and nodded. "Mist will be a good girl…"

"Alright then!" My mother smiled. She was surprisingly good at handling kids.

"Chao Mist! See you tomorrow!" Celica said adorably while waving her hand.

"Bye!" Mist said, as we finally made our way towards the center of the city.

"I reinforced the barrier we set up and added ten more as you asked. Is this enough?" Wondered my mother, as my father nodded.

"I guess so, for now. If anybody tries to harm them, they\'ll get a good beating." My father said.

"We also left Barriers with three layers in each child and the nuns, and I also left Shadow Guards in their shadows which I made through Creation and Darkness Magic." Shade added.

"The whole house is a golem too, it will fight if provoked." Said Nepheline. "That\'ll do it for now."

"Y-You all gave such amazing things?" I asked.

"Shadow Guards? They\'re not so hard, they\'re just materializations of shadows and darkness in the shape of knights clad in black armor, they can materialize swords and are as strong as Tier 4 Monsters. I gave one for each person in that orphanage. They are not eternal, of course, they\'ll dissipate in like… 120 years? I think." Shade said nonchalantly.

"Eh?!" I couldn\'t help but feel shocked by how they handled this with the most absurd things.

"Wooow! Papa, can you make more of them to make an army?" Asked Aquarina.

"…Perhaps, but Creation Magic costs a lot of Magic, so I won\'t be using them for the time being. My Magic Circle got a bit exhausted." Shade said.

"Ooow…" Aquarina sighed as her dreams of having an army of shadow knights was destroyed.

"But I might one day create a strong one as your bodyguard, don\'t worry. I had been thinking about it. But for now one of my spirits is always protecting you." Shade said. "What happened some years ago… It won\'t happen ever again, don\'t worry."

"Thank you daddy." Aquarina said, hugging her father. Shade quickly lifted her up and carried her with her arms.

"The whole orphanage is quite the place." My uncle said. "But don\'t you think you went a bit overboard? Now everyone will know about it if they see such a massive noble-like residence." He sighed. Well, he wasn\'t wrong there.

"Yeah, we know, that\'s why we left some Illusion Magic there, those that don\'t live there will only see some minor changes, nothing too noticeable." Said my mother.

"Y-You really think on everything, huh? You\'re really frightening, as always…" It seems that Arafunn feared my mother\'s resourcefulness and smarts.

"Of course, I am the one that guided these kids and made them into heroes. I am not someone you can just look down into, Arafunn…" My mother said slightly angrily.

"I-I am not looking down on you or anything! Calm down…" Arafunn laughed nervously.

"I wish I could had helped more, but I am not proficient with normal magics above Tier 4." Ninhursag sad. "But I am quite happy the children got a nice new home."

"Yeah, all\'s good now. It is around… 3 PM! Alright, let\'s go buy some things and go to the dungeon. Is anyone coming?" Wondered my father.

"Let me accompany you to buy the things. But I\'ll leave with Celica afterwards. You\'ll take care of the kids inside the dungeon and investigate things, right?" My mother asked.

"Yeah, leave it to me." My father said.

"I would like to go but I can trust you can take care of the kids. I\'ll go with back as well; we need to take care of the people we brought after all." Shade said. "I am hoping Aquarina will be a good girl in her first dungeon dive, right?"

"Yes papa! I\'ll do my best!" She said while nodding, taking out her blue knife.

"Haha, don\'t take that out as if nothing, sheath it for now." Her father said, petting her silvery-white hair.

"Allan, if anything happens to my dear, you\'ll hold responsible, you hear me?" Nepheline asked. "After all, you\'re the one with the idea of letting them go to the dungeon."

"I-I get it…! Don\'t look at me like that, Nepheline…" My father said, as Nepheline\'s furious glare was making his soul tremble.
