AN: Because we reached so fast 5k views from just 3 chapters here is bonus one
„Well, that went well, " said Luminarie after appearing in her castle with Evil Pieces in her hands. She looked at them and then at the blue notification before her in the air.
[You gained your Evil Pieces. You can summon your first Peerage member to take care of your lands. After being remodeled by the System, your Evil Pieces are all mutated ones, and you don't need to be careful about the strength limit to your own. You can even take Ophis as your Pawn if you can, hehe, but good luck with that.]
„I don't need sarcasm, System, but it is good to know this. Now let's go to the library and close it to have some privacy to get my new colleague. If he or she is good-looking, that would be for the best," said Luminarie.
[I know who will come, but I will not tell you. The only thing I will tell you is to better take your Queen piece at the start.] said the System in a notification.
„Oh, so that person is strong , " confirmed Luminarie.
[Yes, and really good-looking blonde person.]
„Nice, then let's go !" Luminarie ran with this shout towards the library. After closing the door, she turned towards the books. „Hm, I should read them at some point, right? Maybe if the person I summon can take care of the territory , then I can just stay here and read between the worlds to get my Peerage members? Yes , that is a good way of thinking."
[Should I initiate summoning?]
[Yes/No]
„Yes, do it," said Luminarie with stars in her eyes. „Who can be called strong by the System? It even was looking down on Sirzechs before. Hmm, who can it be?"
[Summoning in progress... Connecting the worlds via the bridge of mana... Asking for consent of the person to be summoned...]
„Wait, what? Consent? Who the hell is the System summoning that it even needs their consent?" asked a bewildered Luminarie with a shocked face.
[The targeted person asked a few questions about the situation here... The target is not convinced... Asking for permission to tell them your family situation...]
„Why do you need it? Well, just tell that person what you need," Luminarie said while she waved her hand at it.
[Telling about your past and the murder of your parents before your eyes... The person is shocked and furious... The world beside the person is trembling under their power... The person asked about your reaction to their deaths... Telling them about your actions... They are not impressed... Telling about the time you met your uncle and aunt and your reaction to your nickname from your mother... The person, when they heard it, started to have tears in their eyes and said, I quote, „Get me to her so I can give her a hug she deserves "... The person agreed to become your pillar ... Summoning from the other world is a success. ]
When those words came from the System, Luminarie sighed.
„Who is it that they didn't care about anything else but my well-being as a daughter?" she asked the air, and then before her, a magic circle, which was about 30 meters in diameter, showed up. „What the hell? Why is there so much magic?"
[The person who will come will be 'nerfed' for this world to not be destroyed just from their existence. After a few hundred years to learn control , maybe they will regain their full power in controlled bursts in a good environment. Good luck in their hug, host.] said the System, and the notification disappeared with the last line.
[World travel will activate after 3 days, and it will be advised to take with you some storage items as you don't have that magic yet.]
„Oh great, but why would you say to have good luck in their hug?" asked Luminarie, and when she did, she understood because she was turned with her back towards the center of the magic circle. She heard plated boots on the stone showing up, and fast turning, she found herself in the hardest hug she had ever received . To make it worse , she hit her head on the breastplate, which was really hard.
„Come here, little one. I know that I am not your mother, but you really need motherly love now," said a mature and melodious voice with a soothing tone , like a mother who wants to make her child sleep with her words alone.
„Mhmmm," Luminarie took in the voice and smell, and almost immediately , she let herself dip down into the stranger's arms, tears showing up in her eyes. She looked at the person who was hugging her and gazed into the most green eyes she had ever seen. Blonde hair was falling from her head, and she had a blue jacket under her armor. She saw that on her hip was a strange rapier that looked like it had a full guard.
„Now, now," the woman said while she patted Luminarie's hair.
„How should I call you, Ma'am?" Luminarie asked while she brought her head more into the woman's hands, which she obliged.
„I had many names, but you can call me Artoria," she said with a small smile while looking at Luminarie with something you could call motherly love. When Luminarie heard that voice, she woke up from this situation and jumped with a scream.
„WHO?!"
" My name is Artoria ; at least it was before in my life when I was Queen. Later, I went by another name, but it's really hard to tell , so I don't want you to take it to heart. Besides , I can't use powers at my peak , so it isn't too much of a deal , " said the blonde mature woman.
" Wait, if what you are saying is right, then it isn't a sword at your hip, right? It is a spear. Am I correct?" asked Luminarie with fear in her voice.
" Yes, my girl. It is. So how about you introduce yourself? That thing didn't say your name," asked Artoria with a smile of a happy mother.
" My name is Luminarie Valefor, Madam," said Luminarie while standing at attention.
" Oh, stop that ! I am here to help you, my child, not the other way around. It was written that you would give me something to bind our fates . So where is it? Oh, and if you want, call me Mom, " Artoria said with a happy face.
" But it will be inappropriate, " said Luminarie with a frown.
" So how about this: you will call me Mom while we are alone so you won't lose this love, hmm?" asked Artoria with a little smile. " I don't want to take her place, child. I want to fill the void after you lost her, so you will have a better time grieving her. You will know that someone is here with you still. Whatever happens , I will be at your side. Of course, only in this world, as it was said."
" Mm, okay. But only in private, okay?" asked Luminarie and slowly raised her hands toward Artoria, who took them slowly and hugged her delicately like a flower.
" Okay, now give me whatever you need, Lumi," said Artoria after a few minutes of hugging in silence, at which Luminarie looked at Artoria's face and took out the Queen piece. " Hehe, and here I go as Queen again, mhm?" she said with a small smile, which earned the same from Luminarie.
" Right, you were one before. Will you be able to take care of this land?" asked Luminarie, at which Artoria looked at her with incredulous eyes.
" Now you ask this question? Ehh, I will have to teach you many things after your first world if it does not have those things there in your learning time , " said Artoria while she shook her head. " I was Queen of the most powerful kingdom of its time, so answer yourself , " she said with a grin on her face. " Hm, my other personalities probably merged in with all because I shouldn't be like this," she said in a small voice but shrugged her arms and looked at Luminarie. " So what should I do?"
" Just lay down on the table, as you will probably fall. And if you can, take off the front so I can press it against your skin near your heart , " said Luminarie.
" Oh, and will you lay down on my chest later? We can go to bed so you can lay with Mommy, " said Artoria with a sparkle in her eyes.
" What the hell? I didn't think that a Queen would talk like that , " said Luminarie but summoned a bed to the library. " I just need to sleep after the party, so don't take it to yourself," said Luminarie while looking away with red cheeks.
" Oh, you don't need to be ashamed, child. I am too old to care about this," said Artoria. " It's a little refreshing , you know?"
" Let's just get it over with," said Luminarie and pressed the Evil Piece against the skin of Artoria, and after the process started, she went to sleep on her chest, where she felt safe and felt like she was in her mother's embrace.
