-uhh..oww

I groaned feeling slightly disoriented I shook my head to the side trying to open my eyes...

-eh ?

I was confused...the moment I opened my eyes,I could only see white almost blank even getting slightly worried I quickly looked at my hand trying to see if anything was wrong,but I could see my hands both of them in fact meaning...

-You finally woke up huh...

The voice...it was a familiar voice and also something that made me realize where I was...

-I figured you would contact me chronos..

Feeling slightly silly about myself I quickly got up onto my feet turning around I saw the god of time sitting on his white throne his his right eye was staring into me with a small indifferent look on his face.This is chronos the god of time and also the person who send me to rescue his daughter who I may or may not have already rescued...I had still some doubts about it since the pocket watch didn't work,but at the same time Amy was able to control time to some extend which already proves she is fact the person I was searching for.

-Couldn't you have called me in a more appropriate manner...

I said slightly grumpy shaking my head for a bit.Hearing me say this chronos made a smug smile on his face and told me.

-Actually I didn't really call you I was actually waiting for you to got to sleep so I could do it that way,but who knew that you would exhaust yourself to the point of blackout and thats why I took the chance and called you here

His words were confusing,but also explained to me why I was suddenly out in the middle of the day...I blacked out because of exhaustion ? I would deny it normally,but why would he lie ? On top of that I knew that I was in fact moving around no stop sleep wasn't well either since I only slept 6 to 5 hours a day for the last few days,but I believed that it was enough or that my supernatural strength would carry me personally speaking I didn't feel bad really or had an light head it was just too sudden...

-I understand,lets get back to the topic...

He nodded acknowledging me and starting to talk.

-Over the past few days I had been observing you and know pretty much what happened,you must be pretty confused why the watch didn't work and personally speaking I don't know why the watch didn't work either since it was a fool proof device that I had created on my own even the person my daughter in this case is a Demi-god and should be able to activate the divine essence inside the watch just by a touching it I looked into it many times and was only able to figure out that something in my daughter was denying access to the watch...

I narrowed my eyes not sure what he was talking about asking the obvious question.

-What does that mean ?

He blinked and leaned onto his throne looking up into the blank void as if he was was looking into the sky his eye showing a glint of nostalgia by doing so.

-It means that something inside her is isolating the divine essence which she is carrying I don't know what it is,but at the same time it isn't completely denying it since she can use some of her abilities which is making me think that she herself is the one who is isolating the essence without knowing it...

I thought about his explanation momentarily it made sense and also explained a couple things,but that would also beg the question.

-What do I do now ?

Chronos stopped in his tracks for a moment and looked at me with a smile on his face it was pretty funny to him for some reason as he spoke to me.

-It seems like my business with you isn't over mortal...I seem to need your assistance once again,but since you already finished the first task we will need to establish a new contract the offer is the same as last time and what I need you to do this is also simple or maybe not...I want you to take care of my daughter until she is able to fully control her divine powers

I gritted my teeth for a moment...his request seemed a bit too irresponsible to me if you ask me he is her father why can't be do these things on his own ? He is obviously somehow chained in this realm or something,but it still doesn't change the fact that he is trying to make another person responsible for what his rightful duties are it makes me sick of thinking like this,but I couldn't stop my lips to form into a obvious sneer...

Chronos seeing my expression laughed once again this time with a mocking tone his eyes were becoming darker as he looked at me once again he probably heard what I thought,but I could see that he wasn't angry or ashamed no,he was just grim and nothing else.

-I understand your way of thinking and personally speaking I agree with you as a god I have many responsibilities that I have to take care of I am one of the major gods that control the shape of time itself,but at the same time be it god or mortal I am also a person a father I am expecting you to understand me since I can see that you yourself hold slight feelings of contempt in yourself regarding this issue you seem to try avoid it too and ignore it,but through the past few days I learned about you a lot you are a person who never involves himself into anyones business you only do that when it is needed,but sometimes your own feelings can get better of you which impulses you into doing things you never thought you would do you are caring and thoughtful thinking of a situation one step ahead you don't waste time with idle talking,but you still sacrifice it for the ones who are close to you sometimes you feel alien to the people around you while other times you just simply don't seem to understand and thats why I am requesting of you to take care of my daughter...you can call me whatever you want you can even refuse this request and will search for another mortal who will do my binding so what is your answer mortal ?

I snorted...feeling slightly agitated because of him and also because his words were pretty much on the spot he made me feel inferior of myself,but also more understanding in the end my thoughts didn't touch on his request he knew from the very beginning what my answer would be putting air around himself is pretty despicable,but at the same time I don't think he would be god if he didn't have such capabilities.

Chronos smiled once again it was a smile that said that he knew what was going on inside my head.

Seeing this I sighed taking in one deep breath I told him my answer.

-Yes,I agree to your request,but only under 1 condition.

He raised his eyebrow bemused.

-Which is ?

I also raised my head and said with a grin on my face.

-Teach me about this time ability a bit more..

=================================

I opened my eyes.

-Its dark...

I muttered while staring into the ceiling of the room noticing that it was dark inside not really since I could see in the dark,but you get what I am trying to say...basically it seems like it was night time.

-Young master you have finally woken up...

A gentle deep womanly voice greeted me as I tried to understand where I was...looking around I noticed that I was laying down on a soft bed in a familiar room after a few seconds I realized that I was Inside my own room my clothing was only my shirt and underwear the blanket was covering me loosely giving me some more warmth.

-Hestia ? where are you ?

I asked feeling slightly puzzled since I couldn't see the owner of the voice anywhere around,but after a few seconds I saw a small bird sitting next to me it had faint glowing orange feather and a yellow glistering beak its appearance was beautiful and majestic its eyes had the color of a fiery crystal orange those eyes were very familiar to me which made me realizing immediately who this was...

-Hestia...your a bird..

I said with a slight grin on my face hestia in question just looked down as if she was embarrassed it didn't quite work out and instead looked at as if she was trying to pick something on her chest...

-It is very unsightly for young master to see me in my original form since it isn't as beautiful as my human form...

If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

She said while trying to look the other way,but I just smiled and picked the bird from its legs onto my hand this sudden action seemed to have surprised hestia quiet a lot as she looked at me her orange eyes reflected what kind of emotion she felt giving me a bit better understand of her.

-No,it isn't unsightly your still beautiful a bit feathery,but still beautiful

With those words I also started to stroke hestia by the chest a little feeling the soft feathery surface on my finger I felt that it was healing to my soul since she was in animal form I felt more comfortable touching her directly.

-this...this..is...

Hestia was a bit surprised,but didn't talk any further and just stayed on my hand making a what seemed like a very comfortable expression while I started stroking her,she chirped a few times which I found even cuter.I was slightly lost because of hestia appearance to be honest I didn't immediately ask her what happened after I fainted,but I eventually did and stopped spoiling hestia setting her down onto my stomach looking at her cute birdy eyes.

-So how did I get here ?

Getting back on track hestia's eyes revealed a slight worried and angry glint to it as she spoke to me angrily,but keeping her voice low.

-Young master one of the slaves reported that you weren't well and that it was the cause of your sudden knock out...you should have told me that you weren't well...

Her words at the end turned a bit hurt since she seemed incredibly worried about it me as she reported to me about what happened after I was knocked out.

At the time hestia immediately grabbed onto me and tried to see what was wrong she even used her phoenix flames to try healing me,but for some reason it didn't work I didn't wake up no matter what which made her even more so worried since it was shocking that her flames didn't work on me so when she realized that she couldn't do anything she instead quickly carried me down to the second floor and gave me to the girls one of the girls was a magic doctor she quickly analyzed me and as it turns out the reason I was out cold was because I had large amounts of stress accumulate inside of my head which literally exploded inside of me giving me a small shock which lead to blackout.

After that everyone started panicking not sure of what to do,but christina seemed to have things under control and immediately started telling everyone what to do in the end I was transported to my own room and set to rest alone until I would get better.

-Wait then why are you here ? why are you even a bird ?

I asked a bit amused.

-Hmph I can't leave you can I ? So thats why I just got outside and turned into my bird form and then flew inside again through the window into your room..

I looked to the left momentarily seeing the slightly open window that was there to give me some fresh air...for some reason I thought that hestia could have executed this plan in a more convenient way,but that wasn't what I wanted to ask..

Shaking my head slightly I was about to move out of the bed until Hestia pecked my chest faintly stopping me and looking at me with a ludicrous expression in her eyes.

-Where are you going young master ? The doctor girl clearly said that you need proper rest if not you will experience this shock a second time with more severe damage then the first...

She said angrily trying to keep me inside the bed not letting me go anywhere and moving her bird body in cutesy ways which honestly distracted me...

In the end I knew that there was no point in arguing with hestia since she was hold on her objection no matter what I also decided to rest since my own health was also on the line...I already saved myself getting a break isn't bad.

Hestia hearing my answer felt very relieved that I was doing something reasonable feeling a bit happy I also started to talk to hestia a bit more just about useless things really it was fun having such conversations and I also could stroke hestia a bit more which was really addicting to me having an pet was something I dreamed about since I was a small child I always imagined it to be my best friend though not my lover...but either way it was a feeling as if a dream came true...

While I was stroking hestia's head she suddenly asked me out of the blue while staring into me with a sharp gaze.

-Young master...you remember a few hours ago you and I were going home...you made a small pained expression back then if I am allowed can I know what had you so distressed at the time ?

I froze for a moment hearing her question I wasn't sure if I should tell her about it,but I could see that her sharp eyes wouldn't let me escape from this...having no way to run or escape I simply sighed and started to tell her about my worries...when I started talking about it I felt incredibly stupid about myself since I looked like an idiot who had trust issues it was even in front of the person who I didn't want to know the most...

-I see...young master..

Hestia murmured still staring at me with her sharp gaze which now was turning into a very warm one with that said her body started to spark up and soon enough flames engulfed the bird in front of me not hurting me or setting anything on fire no,it concentrated on the body alone and made me remember the first time both of us had ever met it was her transformation something pretty amazing if to be honest.

Like last time the flames were circling the main body engulfing it with sparks and blaze and finally showing the human body from the lower legs onto the upper body,you would never see the full image for some reason making it even more mysterious,but also curious to watch at.

With the transformation finished a nude blazing hot hestia sat on my lap she didn't materialized her clothing,but I didn't really care either since we were alone her eyes were warm and and touching so was her body warming me much more then any blanket would and giving me comfort in it without overheating me.

Hestia was staring directly into me her eyes never changing,but her arms moving and touching my chest Her upper body at one point moved and in the next moment she was on my chest covering the blanket over both of us and closing her eyes she was inviting me down inside the hot space with a small grin on her face partially perverted,but also loving she was longing for this,but didn't force it since I was still resting she wanted me to use her to take relieve on her she didn't care about herself as long as I was happy she seemed to be happy too which were also the same feelings as I.

-Young master it is true that one of the reasons I chose you was because you were my master...

-ugh...

I groaned slightly hearing those words was hard making me instinctively look away,but she continued.

-But thats not all the second reason and the most important one that I chose you is because simply put...I like you I love you I adore you I tried to understand you at first which was hard,but you slowly showed me what kind of man you are which satisfied me...the first time when we met I tried to seduce you I wanted to know to what extend your own character would lead you to and you didn't disappoint it may be a very small reason why I like you,but it is also nothing important since I can't stop it.

Her words were alluring and very tempting it was as if she was holding me directly into her hand trying to lure me down into her own depths,it made me also understand that what I was worrying about was nothing to be concerned about thinking about it more clearly hestia was a free spirit she said what she didn't like and said what she liked it was that simple for her faking love with someone was something she couldn't have done because of her own nature...I was truly an idiot.

-I am sorry...

I said a bit regretful.

-Don't be,take me..

She said kissing my lips softly and pulling me down towards her.
