Chapter 89: Actually, I Lied!!!

  Xena: “Really? This is all that you’ll help us with?! I knew that I shouldn’t have let Runey negotiate alone…” She said with immense regret.

  Runey: “It is enough for us to finish preparations… hundreds of years quicker than expected.” She expressed with a giggle, honestly consoling Xena a bit.

  Narrator Vulely: “Yes, yes! Xena, listen to our daughter, for she speaks only the wisest words!” I praise highly, hoping to make Xena give up on yelling at me.

  Runey: “Hehe…” She said, happy to receive praisings of all kinds, now looking… kinda aroused?!

  Narrator Vulely: “???”

  Aaaaaaaaaaa!!! Runey must have a praise kink!!!!! I’ll have to remember this for the rest of my life… No, bad Runey! Please don’t get hor… Okay, I’ll be erasing this event from my memory. I’d advise you all to… do the same.

  Xena: “Can’t you… help us out, even just a bit more, Future Vulely?” She pleaded, thankfully not noticing Runey’s… current heat, which is fading away pretty quickly.

  Narrator Vulely: “Call me Narrator Vulely! Changing my name like this… will confuse me, and everyone else!” I angrily demand.

  Xena: “…”

  Runey: “?”

  Narrator Vulely: “…”

  Xena: “Help?” She repeated, now deadpan as can be.

  Ah, yes. Back to my ruse… Simply put, I am merely lending Xena and Runey some of my power, which absolutely overshadows them. If you think that Celia’s current Status is absurd… you’ve seen nothing yet!

  Hm? I haven’t shown a single RPG elemental, a Status menu… in so many chapters? Well… why the hell would I? Nothing has changed since the last time anyone checked their Status, you know.

  Look, look… small spoiler, but those types of things will be back very soon. In the literal next chapter! Just stop being impatient.

  Narrator Vulely: “I can lend more power to you both. Doing so would speed up the process even faster.” I finally answer.

  Runey: “Okay, then do that, please!” She begged with a joking bow.

  Xena: “Yes, as you’ve said… listen to our wise…” Weirdly, she stopped her words there. Why though?…

  Narrator Vulely: “What would I gain from doing that? It will hardly take you two over a YEAR to prep every Universe and Dimension for even Higher Beings.” I reply with my arms crossed.

  In truth, I could easily present myself with a Human body. I did that during the more… serious times when I needed to speak directly to the family. Except with Faith, as I wanted to piss her off.

  Currently, I look like an annoying mascot, one that you would find in a Magical Girl anime or manga. No one can take me seriously when looking like this, hehe…

  Runey: “Come on, Mom… Wouldn’t it be better to do this as quickly as possible?” She said with saddest puppy eyes I’ve ever witnessed.

  Narrator Vulely: “Giving the others time to fix themselves… is better, dear. Xena?… Ah, I’ve changed my mind. Runey, here is more power. Go wild, my dearest daughter!” I exclaimed, transferring more power, before shooing Runey off.

  Xena: “Will I marry Celia?” She asked almost immediately after our daughter was gone, her words… causing me to realize that I messed up!!!
