Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System-Novel

Chapter 471 - Departing

"Today is the day!" Kana looked at her three young girls, who were now old enough to go out on their own. For the past three years, they have undergone some very strict and dangerous training. But no matter how strict and dangerous it was, they never once complained and pushed through it all.

"Mama, we will miss you!" Yana, who was now a little woman, said with a bright smile, her shyness nowhere to be seen.

"And I will miss you, girls, too! Be careful on your journeys. Maybe in the future, we will cross paths. If you ever get homesick, feel free to come home. You will always have a home here." Kana said as she pulled her babies into her arms. They were now young women. They were about to venture out into the world and begin their own stories. They would meet many troubles along the way, make enemies and even fall in love. They may even decide to settle down some place and build a family. But this was the thing about children growing up. Even if you wished to keep them under your wing forever, they must one day set out on their own.

"We will send many messages during our journeys." Angelica hugged her mama tightly. She would miss this warmth that she loved so much.

"Yeah, mama, we will be together at the start anyway. We decided to travel around together for a while and see the sights until we each decided on a path we wish to take." Rain explained.

"Mm… You girls are good. If by chance you fall in love with someone and make a bunch of babies of your own, you better let me see them, or I will spank your butts!" Kana said as she gave the girls one more squeeze. Her words making each of them blush.

After a few more goodbyes, the girls set off with Kana watching the little backs departing, getting smaller the further they went away. Creige walked up behind her and hugged her tight. This triggered Kana's tears as she buried her head into his chest to let out her sadness. She missed twelve years of their life, and now… They were leaving to start their own futures that they would be in charge of.

Creige did not tell Kana that to ensure the girls' safety that he had created shadow beasts using his dark magic that merged into the girls shadows. They would only come out if the girls' lives were in danger. He would not let his girls go without some form of protection. But with the weapons they held and the other countermeasures the girls had injected into them, they would be very hard to kill. Plus, each girl was well adapted for any situation. The training they went through was not for nothing. As for why he did not tell her was because Kana specifically told him not to do anything funny. Their lives were their own now. She had to let them go.

Kana spent three more days with Creige. But now, it was time for her to say goodbye as well. Creige's big hand was placed on top of Kana's head as he ruffled her hair. "I will be here waiting for you. No matter how long it takes, I will be waiting."

"Mmm… Once I reach the peak of this realm, I will return. With the portable star hopper, I can also go to many different worlds as well. Eie has preprogrammed about a thousand worlds that might have strong elements on them, but they are unexplored, so there is no telling what dangers await me there. So I will first level a bit and take a good look at this realm of gods." Kana stood on her tiptoes and kissed Creige. She then picked up the brown sack she had prepared for her journey and turned to walk away.

She only got a few steps before being hugged tightly. "Big sister!?"

"Kana, remember to be safe. Otherwise, I will take your family to hell and destroy the realm of gods after." Camlia said seriously. She was not joking. She had the power to do such a thing. A small realm of gods was nothing to her. Especially since this was only a fragment of the full realm.

"I will. I can never let myself die. I got too much I wish to do and people I cherish and want to protect." Kana said firmly. She would never do anything that would cause her death.

"Alright. I will not say goodbye. But I will say I will see you soon." Camlia broke her hug and stepped back. This let Dandan give Kana a hug as well.

"Be strong, Dandan, and learn well from Big Sister." Kana said to Dandan, who was crying. She knew to Dandan that she was the first person who truly cared about her wellbeing. This was the only reason Dandan was crying as hard as she was to the point she couldn't even speak.

After the numerous goodbyes, Kana floated up into the sky. She looked down at the house, which was her home, and smiled. With a small wave, she flew off into the distance. Her destination was a mountain peak said to be the most dangerous place in all of the realm of gods. It was the mountain peak where the only dragon god lived. She had to ask Rilneas how to use the legacy she was given.

The reason this place was so dangerous was because Rilneas was one who did not like visitors, and anyone who got near her mountain was killed without hesitation. But this did not scare Kana because she was the same species as Rilneas. They were both dragons, after all. After a few days of travel, Kana appeared above a mountain top in the middle of a mountain range. It was the highest peak that was surrounded by black storm clouds year round. Lightning struck the mountainside thousands of times a day. But the place Kana was now was above those clouds, looking down at the lush greenery on the mountain top that should be filled with snow.

"You came? Please come in…"
