Chapter 152: Spacial Magic, Mouth Hanging Open (1/2)

I had a fantastic sleep with Nushi cuddled into my chest, and when I woke up, I felt refreshed. The sun was just barely coming up, and I felt filled with vigor and energy, then I remembered the sounds I had caused last night outside our room.

I was filled with a sense of dread, and part of me just wanted to pull the covers over our heads and go back to what we did last night.

That wasn't going to work or help me; plus, it would just make the situation worse. I had to hope that they weren't that mad, but I had a hard time believing that.

If my estimation of the noise was correct, every person in the house felt my presence. While some of them would have liked it, I don't think old Grandmother Nixi was going to appreciate it.

”How long do you plan on fidgeting behind me?” Nushi asked me with a smile as she turned in my arms.

I sighed and grinned.

”I know, just enjoying my time with you,” I joked, but it wasn't a complete lie; I really did enjoy holding Nushi in my arms.

”Are you sure you're not trying to avoid going out and talking to everyone? Why don't you try and sneak out the window?” Nushi joked back, and I raised an eyebrow.

”Do you think it would work?” I asked, but only half-joking, but the answer I got was not the one I thought I was going to get.

”You could, but I highly suggest against it. There is no air out there, and the things out there would cause you nightmares for the rest of your life. My great-great-grandmother Fairilese has a special type of ability that allows her to manipulate special pockets that can distort things to be much larger than they appear,” Nushi explained to me, and I looked at her with a bit of shock and then got up.

I put on my shorts and then walked over to the single window in the cylinder room, and my eyes peeled back as I looked out it. Nushi also got out of the bed and came over to stand beside me as I looked out the window into an endless nebulous space vista.

Then I saw something that defied all reason and logic; a monster to give monsters nightmares. Yet, I felt nothing but curiosity towards the disgusting-looking planet-sized mass.

”What is that thing? And what does it do?” I asked curiously as I looked at a massive ball of undulating tentacles that would stretch out randomly and then start to change into a creature.

”That is the Nevermore Achitchet; it is one of the many denizens of that dimension. It creates creatures from its own body to go and infect others and force them to come back and feed themselves to it,” Nushi explained, and I turned to her in shock.
