I will strive beyond this cursed bloodline!

Chapter 51: WHO GETS THE SPOTLIGHT? THE DRESS? HELP! HAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!



Deciding to marry Rossie and Rena had been the easiest thing Elizabeth had ever done, granted, it was an implied thing from the begining, from the first day that Elizabeth saw Rossie it had been decided, even if it wasn't by Elizabeth but by Rossie.

Not that Elizabeth minded it; if she could do it all over again, she would probably do it exactly the same yet again.

"Okay," Rossie said after their sweet moment. "First...Again, tell me how that happened."

Right, that was the most important thing that Elizabeth needed to deal with.

"I got stuck in a time trap leftover of Michael, he had set it up to protect himself, but either he thought the trap would stop working without him, or forgot to remove it." Elizabeth said sighing, "I hope it was either one of those, or I'll be very pissed at him if we get to see him again."

"Are you expecting to see him again?" Rena asked, confused, "Didn't he...move to his next life?"

"Well, yes..." Elizabeth said slowly, "But...so many people keep showing up, either by their bullshit they left behind (Like Alexanders) or by other people bringing them up (Like Alexanders) or because I keep having to clean their bullshit (Like with Alexanders!)....No wait, Michael wasn't a Saintsworths, so he probably will not return or bother me again after this (Like Alexanders)."

Did Elizabeth hold grudges? YES YES SHE DID

But that was that, and it was not the point at this moment, no. What mattered here was...

"So I get a dress?" Rena asked from the side while reading a magazine.

"Yes," Elizabeth said nodding, "A very cute dress, do you want white? A pastel color like Rossie's pink one?"

"I get a pink one?" Rossie asked from the side while also eyeing the magazine with the pictures that Rena was going through.

"Yes Rossie, you know I love your pink hair, so a pink dress will look great on you." Elizabeth said, nodding and pulling a picture from her phone, "I have a few options, or you can pick one yourself later."

"...But I don't get that option?" Rena said looking from the side.

"I mean...yeah?" Elizabeth said, "Let me see this a sec..."

And taking the magazine of wedding clothes, she ripped a few pages (All the suits), "There, you can pick whatever you like now," Elizabeth said smiling.

"What did you take?" Rena asked, looking at the bundle of paper that Elizabeth was now burning.

"Nothing," Elizabeth said smiling at Rena, "Rena, I know that you like cute clothes, I know you think cute clothes don't look good on you, don't think I haven't noticed that you like cute things."

"....I....don't...?" Rena said while slowly covering a cute bracelet with one hand and grabbing a cute necklace was wearing.

"...I have access to our shared closet." Elizabeth said deadpanning, "And I can see what clothes each of us store there."

"I WASN'T PLANNING TO USE THOSE!" Rena screamed with the face flushed red, "I...I just....I thought they...."}

"Were cute?" Elizabeth said helping the red haired whose face was now almost as red as her hair.

"....Yesh." Rena said, covering her face with the magazine.

"It's okay, I also think they are cute, and they will look even cuter with you wearing them." Elizabeth said, nodding, "And that is the point, this is a special day, this will be the most special day....We will have pictures, videos, memories....all for the rest of our lives...So I want you to be able to look back on it and think, 'I looked so cute!' So tell me Rena...Do you really want to use a suit? Or wouldn't you rather use a cute dress?"

".... I'd like to wear a cute dress..." Rena said, sighing, "But...will it look good on me?"

"Of course." Rossie said from the side, "We can help you pick one too."

"But....What about these?" Rena said, sighing and placing a hand on her chest, "I...like them...but I don't like how big they are...."

"I love them," Elizabeth said before thinking, "I mean...what's the problem? We can get the dress to the right side."

"But...I need to use some bandages besides my bra to get them to a more manageable size..." Rena said sighing, "And....most of these..."

Rena showed the pictures, most of these dresses had either an open back or a big neckline that showcased the goods. Which in this case meant...

"You will not be able to..." Elizabeth said nodding in understanding, Elizabeth was also well endowed, not as much as Rena of course, unlike Rena, hers weren't almost comically big.

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

"Do you want me to..." Elizabeth said raising a hand, the Shift mana accumulating on her fingertips, Elizabeth would need but a moment to change Rena's body, if that was her wish.

"But you love them...And...Even if I don't like how I ended like this, I know that it is a part of why you love me." Rena said sighing, "No...I need to learn to accept this body, this form..."

"...Rena, I like your chest, how big and comfortable it is, but I love you more." Elizabeth said sighing, "If you aren't comfortable...Look at Rossie, she has barely anything, but I don't love her less for it."

"Well, excuse me for looking like a normal person, unlike you two, who look like main characters of certain genres." Rossie said, sticking her tongue out.

"It's fine Rossie, we still love you." Rena said to Rossie, which earned a laugh from Elizabeth.

"Point is," Elizabeth said to Rena, "Both Rossie and myself will still love you even if you get rid of them and go down a couple sizes."

"....No, it's fine." Rena said sighing, "You are right, I should be able to look back to this day and love it, and I am working to love myself too, each day I compress them less you know."

"I know." Elizabeth said, nodding, "Trust me, I KNOW."

And Elizabeth did know, she noticed first thing first when Rena showed with Rossie inside their shared...apartment? Was it still a Soulscape if it was in real space?

Point is, Rena's chest looked bigger and that was all that mattered.

"So, dress? Suit? I wouldn't mind you showing in casual clothing either." Elizabeth said to Rena materializing the magazine again, this time with all the options.

"I'll mind it!" Rossie suddenly said, "It is MY wedding too, so either a dress or a tuxedo."

"..." Elizabeth...had not seen that one coming.

"What?" Rossie said as she turned to Rossie, "My parents are coming, yours may not mind it, but the Singh will."

Right...Rossie's parents... No, wait, "Then your sister...?" Elizabeth asked to Rossie, Mama Singh was pregnant right?

"Born and fine, they called her Addeline. Mother wanted to call her Melissa as her original daughter, but Father convinced her otherwise." Rossie said shrugging, "They still claim that Addeline will not change how they see me...And while before, I didn't believe them..."

Elizabeth could see something in Rossie's eyes, some kind of security, and perhaps some love? Not towards Elizabeth, and certainly not lust. But something warmth nonetheless.

"Now...I think I believe them, I don't think I would be able to not love any other daughter we had, no matter how much time it went by. If we still had Beatrice around and I had a new daughter...I don't think I could not love Beatrice." Rossie said with a sad smile on her face, "...We are still getting her back, right?"

"Yes," Elizabeth said, nodding, "And you will get to birth her even. Or I can do it if you want it...I am not sure how you want to go about that."

Elizabeth...didn't mind that, to be honest, Beatrice...still was more or less like a Minion to Elizabeth, even if she liked the girl, she wasn't to go as far as say she loved her.

Not to the same degree that Rossie did anyway, she still wasn't sure how that went around, or if it was some kind of play that evolved too much while Elizabeth healed Rossie's soul.

And whatever way it went through, Elizabeth would do her best to be there for Rossie, she didn't want to give that much importance to this fact, even if it was obvious how much favoritism it was...

Mostly because she didn't want hordes of Minions wanting to reincarnate as her daughters...Or daughters of Rossie and or Rena, not that anyone had come forward with such a petition.

Elizabeth knew her minions, and none were like that.

But then again, it was besides the point, right now they were discussing something more important.

"...Thank you Eli-Eli." Rossie said and closed her eyes for a second, Elizabeth could see the outline of a heart motif on Rossie's eyes, a sign of something she hadn't seen in quite sometime, Rossie's mana going out of control long enough for it to manifest itself.

"Okay, I'm fine now." Rossie said as she opened her eyes, the motif gone from her eyes, "So? What will it be Ren-Ren? Dress? Suit? Tuxedo?"

"...I'll take a dress, I really want to look back on this day and be happy, and while I don't think I am ready for it, I do want to use a wedding dress..." Rena said, sighing, "Can....can you help me pick one?"

Rena was so fricking adorable that Elizabeth almost decided to throw everything out of the window and strip her naked to get the work going, but her reasoning mind got the better of her.

Also, "Of course Ren-Ren, I think a pastel red will look wonderful on you, or we could go for a blood red and a more mature look? What do you want to go for?" Rossie took charge of the discussion and both girls started reading the material, Elizabeth was thankfull for that.

It gave her time to center herself and think about what she wanted.

Rossie would go with a pastel pink dress, that was almost decided, Elizabeth knew the girl had the dress ready almost since the date of her eighteen birthday had been decided as the V-Day.

Rena? She would either go for a cute elegant dress...or a very hot gala dress that made Elizabeth turn into a rabid dog who wanted nothing but to rip apart said dress.

There was no middle point, and Elizabeth hoped and prayed to all gods (potentially including herself, just in case) that she could contain herself during the event.

No, the issue was another one. One that was harder to solve.

"I'll let you to decide then," Elizabeth said standing up, "I need to speak about something with Jenna."

"Have fun Eli-Eli!" Rossie said, waving to Elizabeth, "You will love the surprise about what we pick."

Elizabeth had no doubt about that at all. She would love anything that they picked after all.

"Good luck, Eli," Rena said, hiding her face behind the magazine.

Yes, Elizabeth's girlfriends were cute.

But no, the issue wasn't that.

"Jenna?" Elizabeth said while walking up to the blue-haired woman, she had been speaking with Arthur since Elizabeth teleported to Terra Nexus.

Elizabeth knew the man had set up a time dilation between the two to use the time more efficiently.

"Oh, welcome back Elizabeth." Jenna said, looking at her watch, "You weren't gone that long after all."

"You have been inside a time dilation bubble, measuring the time is meaningless." Elizabeth said, sighing, "It matters not. Can we talk?"

"Sure," Jenna quickly said while Arthur sat down and opened her palm as a cup of tea fell into his open hand. "Don't mind me."

"I do mind you," Elizabeth said glaring at the man, "Either walk to the next room or travel five minutes into the future, I care not which one you pick."

"...Fine, I needed some things to deal with," The man said, sighing, "I'll be back when you are done."

And like that, the man fell into a portal that opened under him as he stood.

Weirdo.

"...You don't want to keep him around?" Jenna asked, confused, "We will need him if you really intend to speak with [The Prophet]."

"He can't run away from me anymore," Elizabeth said, shrugging, "If he is smart, he will know that."

And that was the thing, even if Elizabeth hadn't intended it, [The Traveler] would never be able to run away from her. Not unless he found a way for Zaanam to accept him back.

Which she doubted could even happen. Not after what had happened, if Elizabeth understood it correctly, this act of Zaanam's wanting to separate itself and purge all Saintsworths...

It was probably because of Alexanders dealing with Ethan in the way he did, and since that had ended with Elizabeth walking this path...

She would never be the goddess that Zaanam wanted, as evidenced by the fact that Elizabeth had materialized a world that she could truly call her own in real space.

"So?" Jenna asked while Elizabeth pondered about Arthur and her own position in the world.

"...I have two things that I need to talk with you." Elizabeth said sighing yet again, "First....Will you...walk me down the aisle?"

"...Ah..." Jenna said as the question seemed to take her by surprise. "...Are...are you sure? You...You could ask your father....Or..."

"Papa is a deity, I know he will understand. I don't mind Mother descending here and there, she is stupid brainbirded like that. But Papa... Papa needs to be responsible, and while I would love to see him at my wedding...I understand that it may be impossible." Elizabeth said sighing for the fourth time? Fifth? "Anyone else I knew forgot me or doesn't/can't do it... so really, it's either you or a minion at this point."

"I can do it...yes I can." Jenna said, saying it twice for some reason, "And what was the second thing?"

"Do you think I should use a dress or a suit?" Elizabeth asked seriously, "I...really wanted to use a dress, since I was a little girl I have always dreamed about using a mate black dress...well, now that will feel a little over the top, so I was thinking about a more traditional white dress...or a black suit?"

"... I... Oh, right, you are marrying a girl..." Jenna said, stopping to think about it, "I...think a dress would be best...?"

Jenna didn't sound sure of it for some reason.

"...Jenna, this is important. Do you think me using a dress would take away from Rena or Rossie? Or do you think if I use a suit, people will focus more on me since such a gorgeous, beautiful girl wearing a suit would be more eye-catching?" Elizabeth asked, this was a serious thing that Elizabeth was worrying.

She would not and didn't want to take the spotlight from Rossie or Rena.

It was an important date for them too.
