After the battles ended, the kids were left rather happy, and Gwendolyn seemed pleased to have experienced an entertaining battle. Her Flare had grown stronger after she woke up, and even ended evolving and growing a bit bigger and stronger, her tail now had red scales protecting her tail. She had evolved into a Blazing Scaled-Tail Mouse.

Meanwhile, Alexander's Hummingbird, Star, also evolved, becoming the size of a falcon, and becoming more beautiful, with a strong aura of regality around him. Star had evolved into a Starlight Moon Falcon and was stronger physically as well now.

Blackie and Ryujin had yet to evolve though, as they were stronger already, but the other two were in the verge of evolving and needed a push, which fighting gave to them. Frank also realized that Ryujin suddenly grew half a centimeter bigger, and seemed that his scales, claws, and fangs got sharper.

It was odd, but it felt as if thanks to his connection with Miriam, he had grown stronger through the fight. Frank knew that there was something in her that made her special. And he asked the system about a more detailed report.

[I have inspected her as well, she seems to posses something- or more, it is as if her soul is very strong, it has some sort of essence akin to divine power unique to this world. It might be some sort of special talent she was born with, but it is nothing really comparable to the power of a god. Perhaps monsters are more akin to form connections with her, especially those with divine power already within them, maybe this also mad Ryujin find her ideal…]

"I see… So Miriam is more than just what she makes herself up to be…" said Frank.

[Indeed, how about you adopt her?]

"Huh?"

[She is in an orphanage, anyone can adopt her, right? She got talent. Oh, you could even adopt all the children too!]

"Ah… I had not thought about it. I suppose I could do it, inside the divine realm there is a lot of people we are taking care of, so maybe it would be hard to add some children, we got some nuns inside my divine realm and people willing to raise kids, like Zero, she loves children despite how she makes herself up to be an expressionless girl…" said Frank.

[That would be good, this way you can secure their safety, I fear she might go through abuse inside her orphanage]

"Hm… Well, Ryujin will protect her, but it feels like it might be complicated to adopt her, so I will take some time." Said Frank.

"Frank? Who are you talking with?" wondered Gwendolyn, as Axitl was serving food to the kids sitting around the table.

"Ah… I was talking with the System." Said Frank.

"Talking… with the system?!" asked Gwendolyn.

"Yeah… I guess I never told you, but I can do that. I can talk with the System…" said Frank with a nervous smile.

"W-Wow… Oh well, that's interesting…" said Gwendolyn.

"I made it like that so the System can give me insight in things I don't understand completely… It is very useful…" said Frank.

"Ooh, I see… I guess that's like that A.I. in Doogle that always speaks to you if you ask them something, and it searches through Doogle to answer you?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Ahh… Yeah, kind of like that one." Said Frank while giggling.

"Pretty good, but is it free?" wondered Gwendolyn.

"It cost me a lot of App Points…" sighed Frank.

"How much?" asked Gwendolyn.

"A few… couple of millions?" asked Frank with a nervous smile.

"Seriously…" sighed Gwendolyn.

"Yeah, it was a good investment though!" said Frank.

"Okay I believe you… Anyways, let's go eat, Axitl prepared a delicious stew today." Said Gwendolyn.

Frank and Gwendolyn quickly sat down to eat with everybody else, as the kids seemed to have grown closer through the fight, especially the little Alexander, who had become closer to Arthurious through some sort of Rivalry.

"I will beat you next time!" said Alexander boldly.

"Eh? Y-You will?" asked Arthurious timidly.

"Yeah… Star will train harder… Now he evolved too…" said Alexander while nodding.

"Alexander, don't be so rude with the boy." Said Frank.

"But papa…" said Alex.

"Come on, be nicer with him, you want him as your friend, right?" asked Frank.

"Friend?" asked Arthurious.

Alex was just a baby, but he already could speak a bit, and he seemed intelligent, so he felt like someone near his age.

"Okay…" said Alexander.

"Good, we are all friends here." Said Gwendolyn, petting her son.

"Miriam can also become a good friend, right?" asked Frank.

"Okay…" said Alexander.

He was secretly a shy boy, so he really didn't like the idea of having friends, but he accepted his father's ideas because he loved him a lot, also his mother.

At the end, they ended eating dinner and quickly resumed their daily lives, clients came along as well, more than ever before, it seems that thanks to the competition having gone low, Frank was getting more people to come buy him stuff.

When things ended and he closed the shop, he had sold dozens of products, way more than the previous week in just a single day, he had made more profits than he expected, and even gained a nice amount of EXP in the Monster Pet Nursery after selling so much.

"Alright kids, take care and go back safely to your homes." Said Frank.

"Okay sir thank you for everything… I-I guess now that Blackie is okay, I won't be coming back…" said Arthurious.

"What? You have to come back, you're my son's friend after all." Said Frank.

"Son's… friend? R-Right… Okay then! See you tomorrow!" said Arthurious.

At the end of the day, Arthurious and Miriam walked back home with their own monster pets at long last. Arthurious was happy to finally have Blackie back with him, and so did Miriam, having Ryujin with her really made her happier.

But both would quickly encounter difficulties the moment they stepped into their homes.
