" My body is so numb " Zilch says on the bed with a blanket over them while Dennis was up and wove a set of clothes for herself " That felt really great . Want me to bring lunch here and feed it to you ? " " Yes please , but when did you learn to tamper with my magic source " Zilch asked .
" I got curious " Zilch kept their eyes closed and asked Dennis " But why did you have to do that while we were doing that ? " " I got curious . One of the elders that I dated was a pure elemental being , so I got curious about how I would even have a child with them , so I got bored and you know the rest "
" And you tried that on me like a lab rat . Just because Satin is okay with it doesn't mean I am " Dennis leaned her back on top of Zilch's fluffy chest and said " Don't worry I already tried it and I knew you were going to like it " Zilch opened their Eyes to See Dennis's smug expression and confidence .
" You're lucky , we love you too much " " Thanks for the love " Dennis got out of the bed and kissed Zilch's fluffy forehead " I'll be back " Dennis went out and locked the door to the bedroom and headed down .
She reached the kitchen and saw some of her kids cooking , with some using the stools to reach the counter and others using titanification to adapt to a bigger , older form .
" Hello mom " one child said while carrying a lot of plates taller than their body " Hey kid " she was greeted by everyone else and she had to use Sounds to reply back .
That was when they began talking to her more about questions they got curious about and she attended to them quickly . While grabbing some food for an Owlbear from her kids , identifying the ingredients used to avoid poisoning Zilch .
" Mom , what's that door beside Grandma's workroom " " It's my work room , I'm making presents for people I know " " Can we see ? " " After lunch , but you have to remind me " Dennis takes the food away while sneaking some other dishes for herself and goes to her shared bedroom with a tray of food .
" Oh , that smells really good . The kids really worked hard " " Of course , we raised them " " Yeah but you took the role of mother while we were playing father " Zilch said , trying to reach the spoon as Dennis set the tray over their body .
" I can't believe you did such a big number on me " Zilch said and then thought of where Satin was " Dennis , where is Satin ? " " Oh , remember when I said that I already tested that thing I did with your magic source ? "
" Oh ... but where ? " Dennis moved behind Zilch and pulled them up so they could lean on her " Satin is being ... cared for in an Expression Dimension " " Does it have the dimension for Care ? " " Yes , I made one because I was ... too rough with their body one time , so I thought of making a dimension to heal it "
" Was it today ? " " No , it was another day when I didn't hold back in one of our games , although they experienced a lot of joy and pain was mixed into it . Hear , open your mouth unless you want me to feed you mouth to mouth "
Zilch's body heats up " Dennis , we already had that hour . I don't think I can take much more of this , I even had to divide some of the fun we had to distribute it to the other me's "
Dennis's eyes widened and she whispered to Zilch's ear " No , we don't have that kind of odd preference . It wasn't that bad , okay , I divided it by a lot so at best they just remembered a really happy memory "
" Fine , I won't tease you about it . Here , have some " Dennis spooned some food and Zilch ate it " So the kids are asking to go into the workshop and I'm planning to show them around while I'm making the presents "
" Okay , I'll just rest here then " " I'm not leaving you alone " Dennis's free hand embraced them as Zilch felt much joy , sensing the increasing affection Dennis was Projecting through her Broadcast gift .
" The kids will be fine with talking with my expressions , those are real extensions of my soul made physical " " That's not the only thing that's made physical " Zilch said as they felt the overflowing love Dennis had soaking into their body .
" What ? " Dennis snapped out of her casual loving mood and shifted into a more analytical mood " Phew " Zilch breathed out , taking a break from that ocean of affection .
" Uhm , so when you told us about your new gift Broadcast . I think you're also using that to tell me about how much you loved me and ... it's just so overwhelming " Dennis was surprised to see how she was weaponizing even emotions and really wanted to know more about it .
" If I Broadcast my love to you in full power ... Will you divide it and spread it to the other you ? " Zilch blushed and tried to defend themselves , which was beginning to feel ironic .
" D-Dennis , wait . Some of me are working " " then you better tell them to put up your mental blocks because I'm planning to break through all of them "
" Dennis , this is going to be so shameful for us " Zilch clenches their eyes as they felt the ocean of affection start to surface , sending messages to their clone to quickly strengthen their mental block . Dennis leaned her head into Zilch's and Broadcasted her emotions .
Every Zilch braced for impact , but after a short while they all received a message of safety " Good , now the mental block is gone " Dennis said and Zilch Looks at her through the reflection of the spoon .
" Oh , you weren't trying to embarrass me " Dennis kissed their cheek , bringing them closer to her embrace " I respect you all too much to ruin your social life " Dennis then sensed a hint of disappointment " Zilch ... Did you just feel disappointed "
Zilch then admits " Well , some of me may have wanted to be teased in public " ' damn it and I actually wanted to do it ' Dennis readjusted herself and continued spoon-feeding Zilch " I guess I should expect some of you to be into that . There is an increased probability when a lot of people are involved "
" Ehe " Dennis caressed Zilch's arm and shoulder , giving them a massage " You're not using Broadcast anymore ? " Zilch asked and Dennis said " All it does is express my feelings and it's very invasive " " like brainwashing " Dennis catches that hint of anticipation and said " I'm not doing that "
She pinches Zilch's arm hard " Owowoow , that hurts more than before " " See , I told you it's not good " Dennis stops pinching and continues to massage asking " Feel any different ? " " Uhm there is this strange feeling I'm getting now "
" That's probably because I'm letting you feel other things like pain " " Would we feel more things if you taught us Eldritch sensation " " Stop trying to get that , it's a specific sense to detect one type of existence only "
They finished lunch and Dennis helped them sit upright while she left the Bed . She Added a TV into the room and played a movie " Once you're halfway , I'll come back to lay you down and give you a massage "
Zilch smiled " Okay , see you later , dear " they began bragging to their other selves about the experience while telling them about Dennis's incoming pampering and when she returned . She saw Zilch Merged together " Uhm what happened " " We want to be pampered by you too "
The gears in her mind turned and she says " hold on , I'll be back in an hour ? " Zilch was confused but skipped that hour of waiting by Saving it . But before that hour was up , their time Saver was stopped by Dennis .
" Okay , so one hour ? " Dennis begins the Broadcast and Zilch trembled seeing that ocean again ... Zilch thought of what the first one that returned from work had felt and this was truly numbing " UuuggGGGHHh " they groaned , but Dennis was still okay .
Meanwhile , beside them was Satin , who was breathing out hot air , trying to pant out the heat they were experiencing " Mate so harsh " " I agree , how are you not overheating from that intense activity ? " " Cause I'm human , activity lasting for a long time is easy for me , plus I had other exhaust "
Dennis pointed at some gills that she manifested on her skin , leaking out some smoke " I've been spewing out steam through this " " unfair " Satin said " Can you teach us ? " " No , it's hard to maintain , by the looks of Review , you will still end up as this overheated " Dennis said with a smile .
Satin blushed and so did Zilch " Ugh , why do you have to look really beautiful like that now ? " " Don't worry about work tomorrow , I'll make sure to take care of you today so you'll be ready " " What about me ? " Dennis kissed Satin " Of course , I'll take care of you too "
...
The next day , Zilch got up off their bed and kissed Dennis on the forehead while she was sleeping and embracing Satin . Once they left , they suddenly saw their mother and grandmother face to face .
" Our Dennis is a very sweet girl , isn't she ? " Denise asked and Zilch blushed " Y-yes , she's incredibly caring and ... Loving " the two looked at each other with a smirk " okay then , we'll make sure you two lovebirds can keep up with that in private "
Zilch wondered how they knew as they teleported to work . When Dennis left the room with Satin and sat down for breakfast , both of the mothers sat beside Dennis .
" Dennis put up a barrier " ' A private conversation ? ' once the barrier was up , they began asking " So how is your love life with Zilch " Dennis coughed in surprise .
" But I put up several noise-cancelling measures " Dennis said , recalling how much noise they were making " You did , but the silence of your kids not asking their mother spoke volumes " her grandmother said .
" And they said that their mother told them to play with themselves after giving each of them some toys " Her mother added " But dear me , you were gone for a long time and only came out to bring dinner , it must've been intense " her grandmother said with much joy , recalling how much better Dennis's love life was growing beyond theirs .
Dennis sensed no gift-related gaze from her mother and thought of a way to get out of this conversation ' Gift's ready ' she released the exhaust steam from her body into another expression as she slowly replaced her body with an automated response Staff .
' I just hope that the automated response system doesn't backfire on me ' she ate her food in private at a balcony while thinking about the new gift she created .
' It still requires me to input the effort needed , but overall it's basically like both Saver and Yeld's skills combined ' she felt very proud ot come up with that , but now , with another expression that she made to catch the exhaust steam , she began wondering about the further use of that expression she created to carry the steam and Staff .
' Maybe a steampunk aesthetic could work ? ' she thought of the expression she made with the imaginary dimension of Excess , which was an extension of her old Savings space .
' Maybe I'll have to change the Imaginary dimension from Excess to Automation ' she already got to work in her workshop room and eventually she finished it and heard a knock on the door .
" Mom , are you in there ? " Dennis checked on the Automaton Dennis that she left , which is acting like she would ' Maybe I can try to sell this as a familiar , but it's going to cost a lot , so rent it is '
" Come in " soon her Workshop was flooded with many children and she began talking to them ' I could just use Automation to talk with the kids , but that feels wrong . It'll be troublesome in the future if I continue to be disconnected from my family . But some space in my mind is good so I can give the task of automating some activities to Automation '
Dennis wondered if she should just rename it and heard some of her kids asked " Mom , what gift is this ? " they pointed at the glowing light that was floating ' Looks like some of them noticed ' " It's both a gift and Expression , but mainly it's an Expression . "
" We want to see " Dennis began to wonder if their curiosity started because of her " Alright , hold on , I need to finish some touches on it " they looked at the figurines around the workshop and once she was done , they disappeared .
" Alright , let's go " she made a massive metal door that opened sideways , revealing a massive factory-like space . They could see many things being made in here , but mainly most of them were products Saver recognized .
" What are all these ? " they asked curiously " Saver can tell you about it , they Saved a lot of them when they were with me . But as for what I used these for , they're mostly for Staff , things like movement need some force , which is what that machine generates "
They looked at the machine , which had a growing blackhole " It is like the ones in Savings " Saver looked around and saw even more things . There was a machine that was creating grids made by spinning blades at high speed .
A machine that stamps out magic spells connected to one that compresses them and another to turn it into ink . There was also machines that would process the steam Dennis uses to stop her body from overheating .
" This is all so that I can supply Staff with resources to perform actions , Saver , you know how I Save time by cooking right ? " Saver nodded and Dennis told them " Staff is kinda like Yeld except more aligned to what people can do in the process , not the result . "
Yeld then began having some thoughts about their ability and wondered if the results of their creation can be something else and asked Dennis about it .
" Hmm , that can be possible , but the problem is the grids for slicing aren't a material but an action , so how about you ask Saver " ' I can teach them , but the kids learn better from each other '
They continued to tour the Expression of Automation while Dennis's mother noticed where the rest of the family went to ' So she left a Staff to respond to us ' she wanted to be mad , but seeing as Dennis hasn't tried to automate being a mother , she decided not to kill her for leaving a Staff to respond .
' But if she automates everything , like walking , it will be a problem . But I don't have to talk to her about it , if her mind isn't stimulated , she might just use the extra free space for studying '
Her mother sat with her mother and the two listened to the news while making soup for lunch " Oh , Titan has been merged to our world web " Denny said " Should we send invitations to the Titans that were charmed by Dennis ? " Denise asked .
" That will depend . Zilch is handling most of the briefing work to integrate them into our world web and they might break the news that Dennis already has a partner . But then the Titans could see some hope that Dennis is open to having more partners , but it's not like we can advertise that blatantly " Denny wondered if there was a way until her mother said .
" Actually we can , since Dennis is part of the promotion of the banquet for our world's identity as a progressive society , we can make it so that we are willing to take more others and even sponsor them so they have a chance to catch up to Dennis " Denise said .
" But then people might take advantage of this to get out of their more disadvantaged status they have " Denny thought , worried that might be bad " Who cares ? We don't have to make it look like it was for Dennis's partners to have a chance , we can just say we'll sponsor the education to show them the importance of giving them progress . I'm sure we can call teachers from other worlds to help in that "
" Or we can ask Dennis to create the teachers " Denise thought that Denny had learned something through her Eyes again and asked " What did you See this time ? "
" Remember when we were talking with Dennis about her love life at breakfast " " Yes , she's such a dear and somehow she seemed more nonchalant about it " Denise said , recounting all the answers they received .
" Well , that was a gift conjured ... Dennis . " " How ? " " Eye is telling me that it's called Staff , which allows her to create something similar to people and they do things automatically like real people with real jobs "
Denise began thinking about how much application there is for this kind of gift " We should get her to discuss this " " After she's done touring that Automation Expression with her kids . "
...
" The expressions are so cool . Will we be able to make them ? " " Yeah , but it's gonna take a long time for you to get there , even for me , I had to work a lot "
They all wondered if they could just ask Dennis about that " Can we have the course about Exponents then ? " " No , Exponents is a very difficult course and I don't want you to learn from me , you gotta innovate too like I did . Now go play with each other , mom has an idea for Automation "
" But we wanna make our own world " " You're not ready for it yet , trust me on that " some pouted as Dennis led them out of the workshop " Hello , grandma and great grandma "
" Uhm , is this about the Staff I used to answer your questions ? " her mother smiled while her grandmother said " Yes , but we have more things to discuss "
Denise asked about Automation and introduced her plan " I can make teachers , in fact , I was planning to make even more , Zilch had a gift called Jobs , which carries a lot of information about several types of professions and is even supplied with the skills necessary to achieve it . So I was planning to use that to make a job agency to fill in the job demand "
" So you already had a plan for this Automation expression " " but this isn't going to turn up like what you did with your clones right ? " Denny asked with anticipation for more grandchildren .
" Nope , this kind of Automation Expression is just like tech that I make , which is very specific . I worked a lot to make sure it really is an extension of me because I'm still using Expressions "
" But your kids are similar " her grandmother said " No they aren't , because when I used the clone , the body had different preferences , but the automatons or expressions are extensions of my very being "
Dennis was about to ramble more until her mother intervened " We understand you put a lot of thought into not creating something that could have its own future . What we are more concerned about is what you plan ? "
" Why ? " her grandmother answers her question " Because I was wondering if you could help with education . We heard the news that Titan has merged with our world web , so we thought of giving those Titans a chance to marry you "
" What ? " Dennis was confused and asked " Aren't they discouraged by the fact . No wait , if there's a chance some of them might want it , but even so , why would I want to support their education "
" Because there's money to be made and even if you are doing it for free , it's not like you can't gain something from it how about a partner or maybe a city of them ? " Denny said and Dennis gave in because it was spot on " Fine , I'll do that thing , but still , why does the world have to be so damn slow there are so many things that are in a demand " Dennis complains .
" You're just too fast . Now , before we officially bring those automatons of yours , we need you to get the credentials " Denise said " Yes , so let us handle that unless you have some automaton that can do it ? " " No , the automatons can only do things I've done before , things like talking to people I'm not familiar with eloquently require my input "
" So there are limits . But if they encounter something they can't handle what is your input ? " Denise asked " It's like they ask me a questions dn I give them an answer " Dennis replied .
" Ohh , it's like that AI thing that they've been doing " her grandmother said " But since you're going to do that , are they going to look like mannequins ? " Denny asked .
" Obviously not . I can make them look different , in fact , I'm even putting on several layers of Expression so that people can perceive me differently . For example , if they're a human they see me or some other human in my Gallery , but if they're not they'll see a layer of expression that matches their race "
" And why would you do that ? " " Because I might be talking with a lot of people and I intend to make them assume I am talking to them . It's just in case I end up in one of those interviews so I can answer their questions all at once "
' Oh , that's actually smart ' Denise wondered if that was how Dennis was able to talk with all her kids at once " Anyways , is there anything I should do because I'm planning to put these layers on it too "
" Why ? " " For show , just like how I got in a deal with all the sages . I plan to make everyone assume I'm looking at them as a species in a favorable light " the two mothers looked at each other " She's daring , isn't she ? " Denise asked .
" Well , she outbid a sadistic assassin when she went to his world " " Okay , but since you're helping me with the job agency " before she could finish , her mother said .
" No , you are handling that on your own " ' tsk ' " Don't tsk me " Denise looked at her daughter and granddaughter , wondering about what conversation she was having .
" Whatever it is you want us to do , you will have to do it yourself . We're only helping you because it helps us give your potential partners a chance " Denise said " Fine , I'll do it myself . My Automatons will leave on their own from this Workshop Door "
Dennis leaves while her grandmother says " Denny , what did Dennis want exactly ? " " She plans to make different expressions and expression dimensions and secure contracts from summoners so that she can get more mana . Although it's also to spread out her influence and express her strength too "
" It sounds like it's going to be a very long talk if I ask about her plan . Let's just focus on her automatons "
...
Zilch looked at all the Titans inside the room ' This is so nerve-wracking . ' Zilch had read the reports that Dennis produced over the few days of working and had understood the infrastructure to support the Titans' travel to other worlds , so they were ready in handling matters involving the Titans .
Sure , the merging of Titan world worked perfectly with the help of the dispatched personnel from the deeper parts of the world , but even so , the fact that all the Titans that were very devoted in their love for Dennis were at least the child of the tribe chief or the chief themselves made it even the more difficult when the most asked questions was .
"Who was the officer dispatched to our world ?" ' This is going to be so difficult ' ' And very awkward , if we give them a name and they start to use the internet , they'll find out ' ZIlch begant align among themselves .
' No , we should calm down , that problem will come eventually . And we don't have to answer right now , we are here to brief them with the basic equipment they will need to explore the world different from theirs '
' Yeah , but that's not even including the help Dennis had for them . They are fast learners or maybe Dennis was just the one responsible ' ' Maybe they can learn faster in a lower gravity , but Dennis also said that the traces of eldritch were also like the filler points , so their increased learning must be because of that '
Zilch calmed themselves by removing as many emotions and focusing on a more analytical approach to view all of the Titan as simple numbers and characters that just have very exceptional stats thanks to the influence of a higher being .
' Okay , let's start . Everyone got their Sounds ready ? ' several yeses and yeahs were spoken in Zilch's mind and they began discussing the briefing in every Titan's language , sending the right Sound carrying the briefing spoken in the Titan's respective mother tongue .
By the time Zilch was finished they were starting to crave some food ' I wonder what we can eat , I'm starting to miss Dennis's food ' ' I miss feeding Dennis too ' ' We could invite her to eat ' ' But it's going to be hard for our wallet if she eats a lot ' ' We don't even have money to say we are supporting her '
Zilch walks out and sees Dennis " Oh you're done . I want to ask you for some help "
