”I wanna be a charming lady that gets everyoneʼs attention once I become an adult!” Scarlet said.

”R-Really...?” I wondered, feeling a little bad that she might have taken that from me. ”I mean... I guess thereʼs nothing wrong with being proud of your body and beauty.”

”Donʼt overthink it,” Nesiphae said.

”What dress do you think could go better with me, mama?” Scarlet asked me.

”Hmmm...” I looked around. ”I suppose this one and this one and this one and this one...”

I wanted to choose heels for her too, or stockings, but she doesnʼt have humanoid legs. Her lower half is a long centipede body, so itʼs better not to mention it and risk triggering something within her.

”Oh wow! Iʼll go change into them! You tell me how they are!” she said, running to the clothing changing room once more and coming out with each new dress, looking cuter with each one.

Aww, sheʼs like a cute doll. Anything I put on her makes her look so cute!

”That black gothic dress really does it for you,” I nodded. ”Makes you look really cute. I mean, um, beautiful! Yes.”

”The one with red roses is nice,” Nesiphae smiled, nodding.

”How about this one? Sexy right?” Scarlet wondered as she put on a different outfit. It was a short black skirt around her hips, alongside a small white shirt that only barely covered her chest, showing her belly button, and a black jacket on top, while tying her long red hair into a pair of pigtails with black ribbons.

”Oh wow, you look more mature like that, yeah,” I nodded. ”I can see your charm when you grow older, dear... Um, but why so insistent about it?”

”I-Itʼs nothing, I just felt like that!” Scarlet said, looking at the clothes.

”Is that so?” I wondered, looking at Nesiphae, who giggled.

She quickly moved her head toward mine, whispering in my ear.

”Thereʼs someone she likes from the Academy,” she whispered.

”Eh?! Really? Oh wow, I never imagined our cute baby girl would one day fall for someone...” I gasped.

”Shh! Donʼt talk out loud, this was supposed to be a secret between the two of us,” Nesiphae giggled.

”So who does she like, though?” I wondered.

”Itʼs a girl around her age... or well, her physical age,” Nesiphae said. ”She hasnʼt said more other than her name, called Catlyn...”

”Catlyn... is she related to someone we know or from the family of someone from ours?” I wondered.

”No, I believe sheʼs the daughter of one of the many gods youʼve recruited,” Nesiphae said.

”She hasnʼt told you more?!” I asked. ”I need to know!”

”Fufu, she did say something... This Catlyn girl is quite popular for being ʼwildʼ and ʼrebelliousʼ around the Academy, and Scarlet wants to be like her now,” Nesiphae shrugged. ”I donʼt know what that means, but yeah, the girl is looking for an identity, I guess. Sheʼs at that age.”

”Hah, thatʼs cute,” I giggled. ”Well then... I could probably search for that using my abilities.”

”You can?” Nesiphae was surprised.

”Mama! How about this?” Scarlet came to our side, now wearing something sportier.

As I nodded and smiled at her, I had a part of my mind searching the name ”Catlyn” through my own Cosmic Realm, only to get a million results. I guess there were a lot of people called like that.

Now letʼs sum things up a bit and limit it to the Academy... the Academy, whatʼs the name? Just...

Um.

Oh, there it is!

Itʼs called ”Royal Academy for Young Gods: Asgard.”

Not a bad name, I suppose. The Realm of the Gods of Norse Myths, and it being an Academy for Gods is very unique too.

Ah, right, the girl... where is she?

...

There...

Found her.

Only one Catlyn in the Academy.

Registered a year ago...

Her appearance? There are some photos registered in the Academyʼs information I was able to easily access with a thought.

Sheʼs cute, huh? Wow, no wonder Scarlet is head over heels for her.

Long black hair with white hair strands, sharp golden eyes, pale white skin, a slender body... she seems a year or two older than my daughter, though. She has a well-developed body too.

Wide hips, and she seems to have quite a large chest... Does Scarlet like that?

...Ah, damn it, she probably does! All three of her mothers are big, busty ladies. I bet she developed a love for big bosoms from us!

...Anyway, she seems to have black and pink scales and a thick, quite fat lizard-like tail.

There are scales around her hands, arms, near her pointy ears, chest, and a bit around her legs.

From whom is she, anyway? Her Divinity is stated to be [Reptiles] and [Decaying Miasma], and sheʼs catalogued as [Rebellious], [Slightly Dangerous], [Hard to Deal With].

Ugh, why does my daughter like such a person?! She should be falling for a cute, modest, and innocent girl instead!

Who are her parents or tutors?

Hmm, registered parents are...

Saphentine, the Demon God of Long and Binding Creatures.

Ghiotl, the Demon Goddess of Treacherous Venom.

Geodredeot, the Demon God of Swamps and Scaled Creatures.

Apparently, all three of them are her parents?! And they also work in the Academy as teachers!

I faintly remember these guys from back then when I was in the Dark Steppes recruiting Demon Gods and gathering resources.

Among them, these Gods joined my crew and became part of my pantheon.

Do they even need the title of ”Demon Gods” anymore, anyway? Perhaps not.

Nonetheless, this is Catlyn! She also wears gothic clothes too, and it seems she was one of the children of these Demon Gods.

Therefore, sheʼs part of the new generation of young gods! And Iʼm quite intrigued about her and the rest.

It also states here that sheʼs particularly good at creating Familiars out of Miasma and wielding Cosmic Power if she can get her hands on that, but she cannot produce it herself yet.
