Decisions
Another of his powers is visual illusion. Any being that sees his eyes, enters the range of his illusion to such an extent, that the victim will not even know if what he touches is real or not, and although it is an illusion, for the person inside, the illusion becomes reality easily.
But undoubtedly one of its most important specialties is the ability to use the powers of the consumed beings while the vitality of this one remains inside. While this race becomes stronger the more vitality they have, they have the ability to expel that vitality in its original form. If they were to eat, for example, an angel, they can throw that same vitality in the form of sacred power towards their enemies.
"I have a doubt... what happens if he eats some power thrown at him? Because you told me that if something enters his mouth, he consumes it... so what happens if he swallows a ball of magic or something similar?"
-He would have the ability to return it once eaten, and could even power it up with another similar type of vitality inside him-
"Damn... it's so fucking broken" Opening her mouth a little wider, Saya mumbled dumbly.
-But even if it can release vitality, its first bearer almost never used it, since using its vitality is the same as losing part of its power, something extremely dangerous for such a hated and feared being-
"I suppose it will also place a target on our back..."
-The last appearance of this race was many eons ago, few beings lived that era and there are many types of wolves with a somewhat similar power. It would be difficult for them to connect the dots-
"*Sigh*" With a sigh of relief, Saya looked at the screen and continued "The rest of the girls how should they assimilate their stones?"
-They just have to accept them in their mind and presto, the stones will automatically join-
"Sounds simple..." Nodding, Saya was silent for a few seconds, then biting her lips and hesitantly whispered "M-may I know what started the zombie virus in my world?"
-Valid question. The virus started thanks to a Chinese biological experiment, currently it has already consumed your world and the survivors are no more than 50 million people.
Biting her lips, Saya continued "I-is it possible to revive the dead?"
-Valid question. It is possible, but only in certain universes and worlds, since it all depends on how souls are handled in that place.
"H-how are souls handled in my world?"
-Souls in your world quickly enter the cycle of reincarnation-
"W-what about my father?"-With red-rimmed eyes, Saya muttered in a broken voice.
-Valid question. Her father is currently 67 years old, lives on a planet called ZOW, is already the mother of 4 children-
"M-mother!?" Unconsciously exclaiming, Saya continued, "It's impossible for him to be 67 already, he only died a few months ago!"
-The cycle of reincarnation does not follow the laws of time and the universe where he reincarnated is very different from yours. Just as reincarnation does not follow race lines. Rocks, planets, insects, stars, or any other existence, the chances of your father reincarnating as a man and human were very slim, you can say that he was lucky in this reincarnation for keeping his same race-
Biting her lips tightly while taking it all in, Saya muttered, "H-he.... remember me?"
-Before reincarnation, souls are washed away, hence, they lose all their memories-
"..." Closing her eyes as a tear falls down her cheek, Saya inhaled deeply, then sighed and smiled bitterly "Living through all this... I had a small hope of seeing him again... I guess I was stupid..."
"*Sigh*" Wiping her face, Saya sighed and asked "What do I have to do now?"
-You can choose to assimilate from now on your new bloodline or do it later...-
"What if I decide to do it later?"
-Nothing, everything will be automatic once you make the decision, you just have to think about it and you will be automatically teleported to this place to start your assimilation-
"Ok... I'll do it later, I want to come back"
-Understood-
"Wait, can I still talk to you?"
-As I said, I am an entity personally created to answer your questions, I'll be wherever you are-
Nodding, Saya spoke "Let me come back please."
-Understood-
***
"Saya!?"
While Saya lived for at least an hour inside that space, in the world of High School Of The Dead not even 30 seconds passed, causing her to wake up at the same instant where her mother jumped towards her with concern.
"It's okay mom..." Smiling tiredly, Saya took Yuriko's anxious hands and intertwined her fingers with her, then turned her gaze towards Fenrir and observed him with a complicated look 'It's amazing that cute wolf at some point can bring the downfall of multiple universes...'
"Saya, are you okay?" still with worry on her face, Yuriko asked.
"I'm fine mom, but a lot of things happened..." Taking a deep breath, Saya looked at all the faces in the room and began to talk about her whole experience, from the gifts from a higher entity to who god really is, though leaving out the questions asked about her father and the beginning of the apocalypse.
By the time she finished speaking, all the girls were just staring at her in disbelief, not quite believing what they had just heard.
Something completely logical if you think that they just found out that the theory of multiverses is completely real, there are other very powerful beings in other places of existence and now they have the possibility of being dragons or other beings that before they only heard about in legends.
But while most of them were still not assimilating everything, suddenly a dark stone rose and flew towards Rika's forehead, causing all of them to wake up from their stupor and look at her with interest.
Not feeling anything strange let alone having a conversation in an unfamiliar place, Rika looked at Saya with confusion and asked "Did something happen?"
"Apparently you have to accept assimilation from within... but I recommend you not to do it for now, we should do it together" Thinking for a few seconds, Saya asked "But are you sure about what you did? You are ceasing to be human..."
"Okay, I said it before, but I don't really feel any attachment towards the human race" Shrugging her shoulders, Rika continued "Besides, it's not like I'm giving up being me just because I'm another race"
"What race are you?"
"Demonic" Answering with a small smile, Rika continued "I knew it the very moment this entered my head"
"The demonic race has trouble controlling their feelings... will you be okay? Not to mention that you'll have a lot of enemies just for being of that race."
"What should I be worried about? We'll have an angel to keep me in line, a dragon to beat me up and a wolf to eat me in the worst case scenario" Chuckling, Rika turned to Shizuka and looked at her worried face "Is something wrong?"
"Will you really be alright? I don't want anything bad to happen to you..." Clinging to Fenrir's small body, Shizuka replied.
"It's okay, I already made the decision" Nodding nonchalantly, Rika turned her gaze towards the window and continued "Besides... I need more strength to protect what I cherish... we already saw that the outside is not a safe place... I don't want to stand helplessly watching when the worst comes to this place."
With a thoughtful face, Kiriko turned to the silent Rei, then turned her gaze to the stones and without further hesitation, closed her eyes and accepted the change of race.
As if her action gave them all courage, without needing any further words or thoughts, all the girls closed their eyes and accepted the stones in her, causing them all to have different reactions.
"Hahaha, I'll be a damn dragon!" With a wide grin on her face, Kiriko turned to Rika and exclaimed "Get ready bitch, I'll make sure to keep you in line!"
"Make sure you don't lose or I'll make you my slave" Snorting with disdain, Rika turned to Shizuka and asked curiously "What will you be?"
"A moon fox" With a happy smile on her face, Shizuka looked down at Fenrir and watched him with fondness in her eyes, then lowered her head and gently kissed the little cub's head "Thank you~"
"What did you get mom?" turning to Yuriko, Saya asked.
"I'll be an angel" With a motherly smile on her face, Yuriko replied.
"I expected nothing less from you!" smiling broadly as she listened to her friend and seeing her smile, Kiriko continued "Together we'll beat this other bitch!"
This is something Yuriko didn't notice but the rest of the girls did.
While Saya doesn't want to think twice about this, the truth is that Yuriko has been smiling a lot more since she passed her mourning for the loss of her husband.
If before Kiriko had to pressure her to have fun playing any board game or drinking some alcohol, today she herself takes the initiative to have a good time.
If before Yuriko just stayed silent and observed everything, today she speaks openly and has the confidence to debate with anyone.
Something that unfortunately she almost never did in the past, always abiding by everything around her and almost never having the chance to have fun or be herself.
Saya had literally never seen her mother smile like that without it being her birthday or some special moment.
"And you little girl? What are you?" Turning to Rei, Kiriko asked.
"A phoenix" Snorting, Rei replied.
"Heh, now the story will come true" Surprisingly taking Rei's chin, Kiriko teased, causing Rei to blush in embarrassment and remove her hand.
[A/N: Since it's been a while, I remind you that previously there was a story about a Dragon and a Phoenix falling in love, something like Romeo and Juliet, but in a Japanese version. Kiriko used to read that to Rei when she was a child]
"Wait..." Cutting off her teasing towards Rei, Kiriko turned to Saeko and muttered "From her happy smile and considering how much she's looking at Fenrir right now.... Saeko is the spirit wolf... that means Yuuki would be..."
Turning her gaze to Yuuki, Kiriko laughed loudly "Now you're a horny bitch even in blood!"
"You talk a lot for a mere lizard" Snorting with a smile, Yuuki replied.
Watching as all the girls laugh and converse with big smiles on their faces, Fenrir felt a genuine peace flooding his heart, causing him to growl softly as he closed his eyes again "Grrr~"
After a few minutes in between insults and laughter, Saya finally asked an important question "We need to plan this assimilation, the sooner the better."
"I have no problem with it being today" Nodding with expectation, Rei turned her gaze towards Fenrir and asked with concern "But if we do it, we'll be 9 months inactive... we can't leave Fenrir alone"
"I'll stay with him" Before any ideas or more questions could be raised, Yuriko commented with a small smile "Even if I change my race with you, I need to have devotees to achieve to have a greater strength, that's something that takes time and I still don't have any plan"
