At night, I wandered the town, and I visited the places my body told me to go.
I saw such beautiful sights. The park at night was full of calm things.
In the afternoon, I went out and purified the evil army. They were all happy and set up additional defenses.
‘So now, it’s time to take a nap.’
I loved naps, of course I wouldn’t take them in the middle of work, but when there was nothing to do, a nap was the way to go.
Of course, not before setting up alert systems. I spread a shield around the town.
I was apparently in the middle of a nap when I was overthrown. Who attacks during a nap?
I conked out immediately.

“She’s out alright.”
“How can we just not move her?”
“It’s like she is as heavy as she is in dragon form.”
“Do you think Rose will ever return to how she was?”
“I mean, she does act similar, but there are obvious changes.”
“So, do you normally watch me sleep or is this a new thing?”
Both Dallel and Jalad jumped, and I looked at them in amusement.
“You two are funny. I see why I liked you.”
“Definitely similar.”
“Yep.”
“The heck’s that supposed to mean?”
“You like spooking people.”
“... Yeah, I can see that.”
I sat up and looked at the duo.
“I’m thinking of setting out to find more gods.”
The duo looked shocked.
“Why?”
“Well, I need to find out if my children are causing problems. As my strength of worship increases, so does my power. I will be able to handle them. So, I might as well seek them out. Besides, I could gain my memories back that way.”
“I guess.”

“I thought to let you know so you don’t panic when I leave.”
“Thanks.”
I could tell they wanted to say something, but they held it back, perhaps they thought that they had no place to argue because I was a god. It was ticking me off.
“I’m not oblivious, if you want to say something then say it.”
“It’s nothing, just, please be sure to return.”
They wanted me to stay. I smiled.
“Of course, I will return, and I will be stronger when I do so.”
“You should probably hide your presence and identity when traveling.”
“Good idea.”
“You have a fake ID already, I’m sure it will still work. Everyone knows your name, but not as much your face.”
“I see, what’s the name?”
“Grace.”
“Huh, fitting, sure.”
_
“Alright, only me and the guildmaster in the dragon kingdom know the id is fake, so it should still work.”
“Thanks.”
“No problem.”
Me and Mammon spoke for a while. He acted nervously at first, but he grew more confident.
“I still think you should bring a guard.”
“I’m powerful, and I still have Celios.”
“Yeah, I’m not exactly comfortable leaving you with only Celios to guard you.”
“I understand, but if he tries something, I’ll discipline him.”
“I still have trouble believing you don’t remember everything.”
“Why?”
“Because you act so similar. If I didn’t know better, I would assume you remembered everything.”
“Fair, my behavior is the same as I am the same person, and my confidence in conversing comes from me being a god.”
“I guess.”
“By the way, you have a sort of feud with a guildmaster named Darthen.”
“Why?”
“He was a slaver.”
“Ah, I dislike slavers.”
“Though, if I may, we noticed Domination is kinda... similar to slavery.”
He was silent as though he thought I would take offense and smite him, but I laughed.
“I guess it would seem that way to those who don’t understand it. All domination does is force their mind to a conflicted state by forcing my point into their brain. If I give an order, it restrains them, but I don’t give orders.”
Mammon sighed in relief.
“Thank you for the explanation.”

I was eating meat and drinking wine when I heard a loud crash, and a female dragon came crashing through the wall.
“ROSE!!! I HEARD YOU WERE AWAKE!!!”
She hugged me so hard. I must be close to her. As she was a dragon it was possible that we were related.
“I was so worried about you. Are you hurt?”
I realized that I couldn’t breathe. She was crushing me into her chest.
“Oh Rose, I’m so happy you woke up, Elren will want to hear that.”
‘I can’t breathe. GAK!!!’
I was getting dizzy.
“Um... Thalia?”
“Yes?”
“You’re suffocating her.”
Mammon to the rescue.
“Oh.”
She let go of me and I collapsed onto my back dizzy.
“Also, Thalia, she has no memories right now, so she is probably confused.”
“Wait, she lost her memories? Oh No!!! My poor sister.”
Yep, we were related. But who was Elren?
“Who’s Elren?”
“Oh, our brother!!!”
Her energy was annoying me. Even Asura wasn’t this hyper.
“Okay, thanks.”
“So, how much do you remember?”
“My name...”
“Ah...”
“Celios said all bindings were released when she went into a rage.”
Thalia froze.
“Really?”
“Yes, as such, she doesn’t remember anything after-”
“Is this the place to talk about that?”
“Oh please, everyone knows now. She flat out told everyone.”
“Ah.”
Thalia considered for a moment.
“So, how much does she remember?”
“Nothing after being overthrown.”
“That’s a long period.”
“Yep, it’s all a blank in my mind.”
I stood up.
“Anyways I was about to head out. Look for gods.”
“I’ll come with you.”
“What?”
Thalia, who was my sister, apparently, offered to join me.
“Well, I have nothing to do, and I am a mature dragon, I could defend you.”
“Sorry, but I kind of want to maintain a low profile, the others will already be on watch with my awakening, so being accompanied by a mature dragon wouldn’t help.”
“I see.”
“Sorry.”
“No, that makes sense. I suppose I could visit Gallson and see how he’s doing.”
She left seeming sad.
“Now I kinda feel bad.”
“Nah, you are good. She wanted to help, but she, as you noted, is very conspicuous.”
“Alright.”
