Chapter 079
The girls went to the capital to get presents for Ellie's upcoming birthday. Once they got everything they wanted and were about to head back to the domain, Sophia noticed that Maya's parents were nearby, thanks to her detection magic, and she decided to stay behind together with the cat-girl to meet them. While waiting for them, the blonde also chose to tell them about her past because she hoped they would help her with her own family.
“Sophia!” In front of the mansion, once they saw each other, the tiger and Maya’s mother immediately hugged each other.
“Good to see you, Eve!” The blonde was just as enthusiastic about meeting the black-and-white-haired cat-girl. “How’s your back doing, Theo?” She then smiled at the brown-haired middle-aged cat-man.
“Better than ever, thanks to you!” He was also smiling.
“Glad to hear!”
“I’m happy to see you, too. Mom. Dad.” Maya, the actual daughter, was slightly upset over her treatment. Being fully ignored, that is.
“Oh, I hadn’t seen you there.” Finally letting go of Sophia, Eve then faced her.
“Alright, I’m going home.” The white-haired cat-girl already had enough and turned to face the mansion. “I leave your favorite daughter here.” Glancing at Sophia, she then started walking towards the building.
“Oi!” The blonde grabbed her arm and stopped her from moving. “You’re staying!”
“Urgh…”
“I’m just playing around~.” Saying so, Eve then also hugged her daughter. “I did, in fact, missed you, too.”
“Hmpf.” She was still pouting.
“Would you be interested in traveling with us?” Sophia faced Eve. “The reactions you get out of Maya are amazing!”
“That’s never going to happen!” The white-haired ca-girl got loud. “I’m not going to travel with my parents! I would have to hold back way too much!”
“Hold back?” Her mother tilted her head. “About what?”
“I am NOT going to tell you!” The perpetually horny girl had no intention of disclosing this fact.
“Ehehe~.”
“Anyway, what brings you two here?” Maya decided to change the topic.
“We saw you and your friends go shopping together, but as we didn’t want to disturb you, we decided to try our luck here instead.” Theo answered her.
“Ahh, I see.”
“Do you two have some time at the moment?” Sophia turned a little more serious.
“Yes.” Maya’s parents nodded.
Afterward, the blond guided everyone into the mansion's living room, where they got comfortable on the sofas.
----------------
“Okay, that’s a complicated one. I wonder where to start…” The tiger awkwardly scratched her cheek while looking at Maya’s parents.
“If you’re trying to tell us right now that you and Maya are going to break up, I’ll never forgive you!” Eve didn’t like the feeling of the current conversation.
“There are no such plans!” The couple shook their heads.
“Out with it, then~.” Maya’s mother smiled at the blonde. “It can’t be too bad, then.”
“I never said it’s bad. It’s just a very complicated topic.” She let out a sigh. “It’s about my past and family.”
“Oh.” Hearing that, Theo and Eve immediately changed to a serious expression, too.
"I met my parents roughly half a year ago, and you've seen the violet-haired dog-girl together with us a few times, right? That’s Steph. She’s my sister.” Sophia decided to just get over with it.
“E-Eh?” Eve raised her voice. “B-But I thought your family was…”
“Gone, yes.” The blonde nodded. “Not dead, even though it may sounded like it back then. I’m sorry about that. They went missing, or rather, I went missing. Until something happened, it was impossible for me to reunite with them.”
“How…?”
“Excellent question!” Sophia scratched her cheek. “My background’s a little more complicated than just being somewhat of a member of the royal family.” She moved around her striped tail a little to bring the point of being a tiger across.
“And that’s already plenty complicated.” Maya rolled her eyes.
“Not helping!”
“Wasn’t planning to.”
“Anyway,” Lightly glaring at her girlfriend, she then continued. “I come from a very remote place.” Technically, it was quite true. “In fact, I, uhh… I come from another world.”
“…” Theo and Eve just went silent and blinked a couple of times while staring at the tiger with an expression of pure confusion. “What…?”
“What a relatable reaction.” Maya looked strangely nostalgic.
“So, all you’re doing today is unneeded comments, huh?” The blonde faced her cat. “It’s one of those days, isn’t it?”
“I’m here to break the tension~.” She just gave her a thumbs up.
“Ah, I see.”
“Hold on a moment!” Maya’s mother got loud. “What do you mean?!”
“Exactly!” Her father reacted with a few big nods. “What are you talking about?!”
“It sounds a little stupid, doesn’t it?” Sophia looked a little awkward. “Very understandable.”
“Yes!” Theo agreed. “Especially because you’re always so reasonable, which makes this sort of joke even more ridiculous.”
“I think so, too.” Eve felt the same.
“Ahaha~.” The blonde glanced at Maya, who was only slowly shaking her head in a disapproving manner over how her parents still thought that her girlfriend was reasonable.
“Okay, so what is this really about?” Obviously, the two still weren’t believing the tiger.
“It’s true what I said.” She looked right at them with a serious expression. “I really am from a different world. That’s the reason I wasn’t able to see my family for the longest time. They had stayed behind in that other world while I was here with no means to return. I was able to do just that half a year ago, though. While doing so, Steph decided to come with me to live here in this much better world while my parents are still undecided on what to do and where to stay.”
“…”
“It’s true.” Maya decided to be helpful, after all. “I’ve seen it. It’s definitely another world because there’s no way such a place exists around here.”
“N-No way!” They were still unable to believe it.
“If it helps you to believe it, Canir’s the one who brought her to this world.” The white-haired cat-girl was helpful for exactly seven seconds.
“?!” Her parents were unable to react in spoken words.
“Could you go back to unneeded remarks?” Sophia glared at her. “I don’t need that kind of help right now.”
"Why?!" Maya glared back. "Shock value is the easiest way to make someone understand! I’d know because it's a common occurrence when around you.”
“That may be true, but your parents deserve a more tactful approach!”
“I don’t do tactful anymore.”
“I noticed!” The blonde rolled her eyes. “Anyway, yes, as our idiot so bluntly blurted out, Canir’s the reason I arrived in this world after living in another one before. I’ll spare the details, though, because they’re no fun.”
“I… I don’t have any words or know how I should react. Neither if I should believe it or not.” Eve had some rather conflicting feelings on the matter.
“I think I’ve heard stories of a similar topic before, but I never believed it. I mean, it makes no sense whatsoever!” Theo, too, didn’t just accept it like that.
“Do you want to see it?” Sophia tilted her head. “That world, I mean.”
“I can’t recommend it.” Maya shook her head. “There are some very interesting things there, but there are many cons to it, too."
“H-How…?” Eve looked confused.
“Well,” Thinking about it for a moment, Sophia then opened one of her sparkly portals next to them. “If you step through this gate, it will bring you to a room from where we can visit my previous world.”
“No way!”
“We also live in there while were traveling.” Maya added some extra details. “Not Sophia’s old world, but the place inside the portal.”
“There really is a different world other than this?”
“There is.” The blonde nodded. “Probably many more, but I don’t know them yet.”
“What do you mean by YET?!” Maya didn’t like the sound of that.
“Who knows what’ll happen in the future?" She just shrugged.
“That doesn’t make it any better!”
“So, do you want to see it?” Ignoring her girlfriend, the tiger kept concentrating on her parents.
“M-Maybe another time…” Eve was too overwhelmed to take the offer.
“Y-Yeah.” Theo sided with his wife.
“Sure thing~.” Sophia wasn’t going to push them. “The whole reason I brought up this topic was another one, anyway.”
“Other than shocking us to the very core?” Eve tilted her head.
“Of course!” She nodded a couple of times. “My sister came with me, but my parents are still in that other world, and I really want them to come here, too. As I said before, this is, objectively speaking, the better world. They don’t know anyone here, tough. Because of that, I was hoping that I could introduce them to you when showing them this world. I think it would be a great help if they have someone to talk to.”
“Ohh!”
"I'd love to meet the parents of our future daughter-in-law!" Eve got very excited about that.
“Ahaha…” Sophia and Maya only reacted with an awkward laugh.
“I’m ready whenever to meet them!” Eve was really looking forward to it.
“Well, I still have some more explaining to do.” Sophia tried to calm her down. “There are some circumstances about them that complicate things a little." She had no idea how she should explain the bit where her parents were humans.
“I’ll go and make some tea.” Maya stood up from the sofa to leave for the kitchen. “We’ll need it because this will take a while.”
The blonde liked that idea, and the group took a little break where she tried her best to lay out her story in the most logical way to explain it to Maya's parents in a way that made sense.

Ah yes explaining to parents that still have an intact common sense, that she comes from another world, is on her way to becoming an overseer and by playing with magic she completely altered her genetics to transform from human to a tiger girl :D everything seems very sound and reasonable yes... :D
