The next day , Dennis hated how she was well rested because if she had some tiredness , she could make an excuse to not participate ' I feel like I've been asleep for a long time ' just yesterday , she had a lot of free time to catch up with Zilch and Satin , now she has to deal with the suffocating interview .
' It's a waste of time because most of them are just here for genetics ' Dennis recalls the prep talk both her mother and grandmother told her about being the girlfriend or wife to change the other person for the better , but she couldn't care about a stranger becoming a better person because they were in a relationship with her .
' In the end , it takes forever for me to wait for that development ' Dennis said and she thought of the partner not even being in her life because they wanted her but would only want her because of her body and her achievements .
She still dragged herself , feeling the weight of being late on her ' This is so depressing , is this what that meme on the internet said about success not being celebrated while a single mistake screws you over completely ? '
She can now relate to that meme because she didn't know much about what the interview entails and the world she was familiar with had changed completely , like she overslept and woke up to a new one .
Her depression rose as she changed out of her pajamas and wove a new set of clothes ' I should make my own clothin line ' Dennis looks at Satin , who remains asleep and kisses them . Satin curls around as their spider legs pull the sheets for them to soak in Dennis's lingering presence .
And Dennis has breakfast with her family " Mom , where is Zilch ? " Yeld asked " They're planning to work for a while " " So no playing with them ? " " You have me " Yeld thinks of all the things Dennis did " Grandma says we're not allowed to make weapons "
" Don't worry , kiddo . I won't be needing weapons , but did you like the material tesseracts Zilch makes for you " " Yeah " Yeld says and begins telling Dennis about how many factories they made to process the resources the tesseracts bought .
" How did you make it ? " " I was folding 3-dimensional spaces together to make that four-dimensional thing exist in our 3-dimensional world . It's like how you stack 2-dimensional planes on top of each other and squish it really hard to make it as flat as possible . "
" Wouldn't it be difficult to stack them on top of each other " Yeld asked " It would unless I use Merge " " OOOHhhh " " Mom how does merge work " another child asked and soon enough she had to use Sounds to speak to all of her children who were asking about a lot of things from their mother who was a treasure trove of knowledge .
Denny smiled , seeing many mouths and ears in the air conversing with the children " Dennis is such a good mother " Denise said , pleased with seeing the joy in her great-grandchildren's hearts .
" If only she had them normally " Denny said and Denise recalls the Picture of those fleshy womb chambers that Dennis used to give birth to her children .
" That Picture looks like it came out of a ghost story in my mother's time " Denise said and Denny nods , agreeing to it " But will it be okay if we included some human participants , Dennis probably doesn't plan to show interest in them "
" Is it because she finds them boring ? " " It's my fault for introducing her to my friends' kids . She probably got tired of people with those backgrounds " Denny said .
" It's alright with how many different people Dennis will be meeting for marriage . I'm sure she won't get bored " after breakfast , the mother and daughter pair got the venue ready for Dennis's marriage candidates .
" Make sure to cook the right dishes " her mother says as she sat on a chair with a very long desk with her grandmother . On the other side of the room was a couch with a coffee table where Dennis placed the food .
' This feels like how a formal job interview goes , except with the overwhelming factor of hospitality to show that I'm a catch ' she didn't want to just cook food for them and cooking food with her kids wasn't exactly stimulating enough . So she calls Satin to help her exercise while she also learns more materials from Brain world .
' I'm learning so much I can't tell how much I have progressed ' her mind continues to consume information and she wishes there was some way for her to keep track of her progress and recalls some lessons she learns about her world's progressive culture .
" Assessment is not something to label us on how little we learned , but it is about how much we have progressed " one professor said about the progressive culture influencing modern educational models .
' But in the end , the only assessment I can get is something more practical and real-world , like a fight . But maybe I can make one with Math , but that just gives me numbers doesn't give me the feeling that I got when fighting Filter ' she tries to merge all the combat previews of the previous fighters of Zilch and Satin , but even that didn't have as much power as Satin .
' It's nice to know that I was able to use gifts without the actual gift , but this feels so unfulfilling ' Dennis recalls the meme she had referenced about a mistake sending someone into a depressive spiral while a major success does nothing .
' Damn , I'm numb , maybe this dating agency mom setup would be a good distraction ' after a few interviews went through both mothers were highly disappointed " come in " a young masquerading man enters the room and sits down , greeting them in their native tongue .
" So why do you want my granddaughter's hand in marriage " " She is a very interesting woman that deviates from what I'm familiar with " ' So they want to explore new things ' Denny thought . She Looks into the man and sees his true form as a massive beast , but then thought of the Titans .
' For him , it will be a new experience , but Dennis has already met with Titans and she has plenty of them who really admire her ' Denny wished the Titans were part of the interview because at least they would show some affection to Dennis compared to these other ones here for political marriage .
' I'm starting to regret it , but it's not like some of these younger ones aren't attracted to Dennis as a person ' the interview continued with the ancestor showing their more primal and earthly desires towards Dennis while offering a lot of riches , still unaware of how much Dennis's wage was if she had tried as hard as she did in her previous assignment .
" Hmm , you are a very great prospect , but we'll call you when we consult with our daughter later on " Denise said and once they left and after Denny gave her assurance of their privacy .
" Such a terrible prospect " Denise said " But we did say they will learn to love Dennis for who she is because she wouldn't want to stay with anyone that loves her " Denny said " For a girl like Dennis to be actively avoiding marriage interview , she sure has the heart of a maiden looking for true love . "
Then came another one , which is a more familiar face " Okay , so Famadi , we know about you with your past interactions with Dennis " Denise said and then Denny mentions his background .
" Since you are from this kind of family , I can assume that you've come prepared ? " Denny asked " Yes , I've proposed the idea of marriage before , but since Dennis doesn't have the view of marriage as a tool but something more important , I have been rethinking my view to better align hers "
Denny could See that it was sincere and not deceptive , but knowing the background , Famadi probably had to figure out ways to get to this level of sincereity . But Seeing that there was no murder attached to it , Denny lets it go .
' He's taking this seriously and he had the advantage of knowing Dennis before , like that Janine girl . But she only does this for appearances' sake and to express her desire to remain an acquaintance because of how unreachable Dennis was in her eyes ' Denise thought .
" You have great prospects , but Dennis isn't here right now , so how about we pack all this food for you as a souvenir " Famadi takes the food while also rating the Vis contents ' She certainly has used some alchemical methods to create these dishes '
Famadi felt like Dennis was in another world already , it was obvious enough when she cast magic and used powers that his world never had , but seeing how expertly she handled Vis like she had mastered it her entire life made that even more apparent with these dishes .
' I should study these to figure out what the procedures she went through to create these ' Famadi leaves with his associates waiting at the door while he senses a disturbance in space from the other interviewees coming .
...
" I've inherited a territory and have developed it beyond what it was in a short time " Kahnu says and even bought the papers and people to show his qualifications .
While Dennis's mother Looked at the young dragon thoughts ' Dennis's words must've gone through him if he did all that ' " If you think I'm lying , you can even come to the territory I've improved and I even have the paper to prove it and I've been personally exterminating some parasites in the forest too "
Kahnu also proceeds to show how he has been able to manage it while Denise recalls the money and effort that Dennis pours into that island of hers ' I don't think this little dragon knows about that . But now is not the time to talk about Dennis , but to talk about them '
By the time they were done , Kahnu left with the food as he felt like his performance was very good thanks to how much praise the mothers were giving him .
" So how'd you like him Dennis ? " an expression of Dennis as a dragon was revealed and he thought about it " He's in a much better place than I am . I've grown the island myself , but I couldn't feel satisfied with the speed of growth . He's more excited because he comes from a world that has so much room for improvement; the only way up "
" And care to tell why you took the form of a male dragon ? " Denise asked and Dennis answers in a roundabout way " He's cute , but I wouldn't want to be with him at all and I drew this because he's a small boy . I'd prefer the older ancestor , but those ancestors are goddamn cocky ast bastards "
" Is this what the modern era does to a girl ? " Denise asked and Denny says " No , it's more that she doesn't like staying at home and tending to the child only " Denny replies .
Denise took a while but was fine with that kind of logic " I guess we have raised our daughters to be too strong now " Denise said , blaming herself for inadvertently creating a daughter that can exhibit a foul attitude at will .
" At least you're a bit interested in him " Denny says and then the next one came . Dennis erased her expression and began to make another one based on the candidate that came in .
It was exhausting for her emotionally and the fact that so many of the suitors tried to show that they have genuine affection for her made her puke because they were strangers .
Routen eventually arrived as the last one at dinner " Oh hello , Routen , how is your sister " " Oh doing really well , miss , I've been able to continue my studies thanks to that "date" we had . "
Denny smiles and then uses Eye to reveal Dennis's expression of a gryphon , which wasn't complete yet " MOM " " Routen since you are the last one , how about you just have another date now . Come on mother , let's leave the younglings alone " the two left them in the room alone .
Routen looked at the unfinished Gryphon expression with amazement and Dennis completed it quickly and said " Sorry , I'm in the middle of a game with Satin , you're gonna have to settle with talking with this expression "
Routen pieces what Dennis is probably doing with Satin from the information that was drilled into him during his free time and blushes " Oh , should I go to another room ? "
" Don't misunderstand , the game I'm referring to is just an extreme version of tag . Now as for what my family said , you can ignore that date thing " " Oh uh yeah sure ... Then can I ask why this gryphon body looks like it came out of a painting ? "
" Cause this is a painting " The Expression said and it looked so surreal to see a painting so animate and real " Wow , that's amazing . How did you make it ? " " It's a gift-related ability that I learned , you could say I had grown too much in that month with the amount of resources I had freely on me "
' She's grown more amazing in just a month ' " Then what was stopping you from getting that good before ? " Routen asked and Dennis thought about how , because despite the amount of work she put in listening to the radio lectures and increasing her speed through Slowpoke , she was just a much faster human with more knowledge that could never be used for anything .
" I guess , it's because I didn't have an outlet to express all my hard work . Sure , I had art , but that only expressed emotions and creativity . But the powers like gifts , magic , Vis and superpowers made it easier to make use of what I was learning "
" When I saw you fight with magic , I thought you were a magic student " " That was just a hobby I took up because I wanted something to defend myself . I was too focused on other things to care about magic at that time because I was only focusing on using magic like it was a factory to Save spells "
" Your old thinking sounds similar to my world " Routen said and Dennis asked " They drilled as much information as they could get about me into that head of yours , didn't they ? "
" Yeah , I learned a lot about your life , like there is that scandal about you dating and then secretly marrying two slaves , which the public tried to paint you in a not-so-favorable light "
" That's alright . I didn't care much about my image when they called me a toxic partner for wanting to have power over my partner " Dennis says and then Routen continued the conversation .
" But I don't think that you are that kind of person honestly " " Really ? " " Yeah , I think you are a really nice person ... After what I saw " " Oh yeah , how's the progress with that memory projection thing ? " " It's going well , but I don't have the opportunity to show it to others other than my mother's side's family to relive memories "
' Good good ' " Don't worry about it too much , but you could still use it anyway . I want everyone to be clear about my preference " Routen thought of a question and asked about it .
" Why are you still open to marriage and dating ? You are already married to two of your slaves and one of them is made of many clones , which I've heard has become several different people thanks to ... my father's side of the family " Routen said and Dennis says .
" It's only because my parents wanted to have more in-laws that have a family . Our family is very small , usually an only child and my mother and her mother always wished to have siblings or more than just one child . I already gave them so many children and Zilch already showed how many personality traits they can have , but they wanted someone with a family and with a much developed personality than Zilch , all of the clones who is somewhat simple "
" And you say simple how ? " " They just have simple interests . Each one of the clones just has smaller interests as compared to Satin , who likes to exercise with me a lot , choosing from a variety of games . Meanwhile , each of the clones doesn't have a big personality . Combined , they produce a much bigger personality , but overall it wasn't something that excites my mother and grandmother "
" So this interview is to look for one with more personality and a family ? " Dennis nodded " All the candidates are great in Mom's perspective , but I don't feel great about it . Janine visited , but she just wishes to be friends and only attended for the same reasons as you "
" And Kahnu " " He visited and honestly not very fun , the ancestors that came in their free time were interested , but I don't like them . Sure , I like them because they are ahead of life , but they're stagnant and have remained stagnant for a very long time , so I don't like them "
" Even though you say that first impressions shouldn't define a person " Dennis froze , thinking about how her words were biting her back as Routen got that to her attention " ... So I am not following what I think of either " Dennis admitted and then thought of how she can handle this .
" Okay , how about another date tomorrow ? You pick the time and place " " What ? " ' I'll have to give the same offer to the others ' Dennis ended their impromptu date and went to her family , who were talking with each other , wondering what the results of the date was .
" How is it ? " Denise asked while Denny looked forward to hearing it , gripping onto the hope that Dennis liked Routen enough " I want to schedule a date to everyone who came here "
" Everyone ? " Denny asked with a hopeful tone after going through the confusion " Yes " " Then you're going to have to do the same for all those who couldn't come here " her mother says " There's more ? " " Dennis , my granddaughter , we're not like you , who can manage so many strangers at once "
' She says as she is the owner of several businesses ' Dennis thought , wanting to argue with her grandmother and wondered if that was why she had to stay at home for this long because more people were coming to get her hand in marriage .
...
The next day , Dennis sends several expressions of herself in different dresses to visit her dates early in the morning . On Trad World , one of her expressions visits Janine , who was in a garden .
" Oh Dennis , you actually came ? " Janine asked and she nodded " But truth be told , this is just one of the many dates that I am attending to " " Oh sounds like a lot of effort . How do you do it ? "
" You know the clones right ? " " Yes , the information brokers that my family uses says you turned them into your children " " Well I found replacements , which are expressions , so while I am dating you , I am also dating a lot of other people all at once "
" Huh , so what are these expression ? " " Routen asked the same thing at the start " " Cause he's a scholar , but I'm curious because it sounds new " " These expressions are just an extension of the gifts I possessed "
" Is that what you need to be a gift wielder ? " " Is that what people call gift holders who know how to use their gifts that well ? " Janine nodded " It's a small term thrown around to gift holders . I even have some information that the crime world web throws that term around to good gift holders like that security head "
" How envious " Dennis said " I would rather be the one who's envious of you , in just some time , you traveled to another world you call Titan , you have grown " " I have grown , but it doesn't mean I have subordinates I can command " Dennis said .
" So that's what you are envious of ? I'm sure if you tried , you could've achieved something a lot of people in that field can't achieve " " I have , that island where I blasted that Colors magic is being managed by me , but as far as I can tell it's just an island where I play a real-life management game through Console "
" But you're envious of me having access to information gatherers and capable subordinates ? " " Yeah , I imagine you have a very stable foundation and infrastructure that's supporting your kingdom and giving you power . Meanwhile , for me it's different "
Dennis uses an Expression to show what she was thinking , painting a massive piece of herself , while beside it was a pyramid of identical size that was structured like a hierarchy of classes .
Each floor was occupied by several figurines that represent the social class they are on " Look at how structured this kingdom is , it's autonomous because several people are working to keep it operational , meanwhile I have to be the one that puts the effort to ensure growth . I wish I could just grow stronger automatically , but I'd rather be the one who puts the effort "
Janine still didn't understand why Dennis was envious of her " Can you elaborate why you are envious ? " Dennis thought for a while and said " I guess it's because your kingdom worked on its own , everyone helping each other and to me ... It feels lonely having only yourself to rely on for growth "
" I never thought I'd hear you open up so easily " " It's not like I am ashamed of it , people just never asked about it and it never came up " " So you feel lonely that you don't have an equal ? What about those ancestors or elders ? "
" They act tough , but do you think those Elders could've blasted the rule magic that encompassed a whole world ? " " I can only think think that Abby was capable of doing so "
" Fck that god hooker , I'd say harsher words than that , but too many of my Expressions are in this world and I don't plan to pick a fight with your religion "
" I thought you'd be like that madman that is openly challenging people " Janine said " I don't plan to challenge others for the sake of ascertaining my growth , plus I have my own battle simulations " " You do ? " " Yeah , but one of my dates is in there and it's going to be a long talk to say they aren't winning in this competition "
" I clearly don't care about winning , so that must be why you are using that topic to start conversations " " Yep , How's Mia by the way ? " " She's learning a lot about factories and the production of things . Some of the information gatherers heard that she can be a gift wielder , but they also gathered that there is something about her that's stopping her from getting the title , but they won't tell us "
Dennis thought about it and asked Janine " Then who is throwing the gift wielder term ? " " Haven't you heard ? It's the Watchers , like their name , they're a squad from the deeper parts of the united worlds and they evaluate our worlds or any other world webs that are under their jurisdiction . "
" But they say I'm a gift wielder ? " " Yeah , they say that you are qualified to have that title and so a lot of people are starting to push their gift holders to reach your level by following you as much as they can , but you were awarded that term in the middle of your month-long assignment , so not a lot have figured out a way to achieve it "
" Wanna know ? " " Isn't it confidential " " Maybe , but I figured why not give you some support to test my theories too " Dennis created a pentaract that was folded into a cube " Here " " A tesseract "
" Yeah , but with an extra dimension , you can give this to Mia . Tell her that from now on she should use this Pentaract when she wants to make something that should probably get her that gift wielder status "
Janine wanted to ask what this was , but Dennis beat her to it " It's the result of me looking into how to make use of Exponents , a gift that expanded the mana pool of Zilch . It's basically creating another dimension to multiply the value of a mana pool into itself . At first , the power of two makes it a plane , but when you progress even further your mind might not handle looking at the visualized pool "
Janine looks at the Pentaract " Then how did you create this ? " " Folded it " Dennis explains further about what the requirements were " That's a lot to learn . Is that why you are called a gift wielder " " Probably , but the most important part is you have to give that Pentaract to Mia to use as material "
Janine didn't feel like asking more and nodded " So , back to something I can engage with you . What kind of person are you looking for ? " " Someone as good as me " " Then you'll have better luck with people in the deeper parts of the united worlds , maybe talk to some of the watchers for it ? "
" Nah , I'm satisfied with Zilch and Satin " " But your family said that they want you to have more partners for you . And I don't think they were lying " " Well they have good eyes , but I'd rather not engage with that question "
Janine tries to think of the reason , but there was not a lot of reference that she could use to generate a proper answer ' Alright I'll just leave it '
