Chapter 8: "What a beautiful elf!"
An elf and a God were comfortably seated on a carriage.
Surrounded by mountains in a vast plain. At this moment, they were crossing the plains at a very fast speed.
"It's really an efficient way to move the carriage... So does this mean your seal is gone and you can unleash all your divinity?" The elf sitting in front of the God asked, surprised to see her God using divine energy to move the carriage.
"Um, yes and no... You see, the seal is gone, but I still can't fully unleash my divine energy because if I did, it would be a disaster for this world."
"Fortunately, I remembered to limit my divinity; otherwise, it would have been a disaster," Kaylon couldn't help but break into a cold sweat thinking about the consequences of not limiting his power in time.
As a primordial god, his energy is almost infinite. Therefore, unleashing it, even if unintentional, would still severely damage this world. After all, this is not his primordial world that can withstand his presence and even that of several more primordials.
"Let's say I could only use about 7% without causing a negative reaction from the world," Kaylon checked the energy he could use. Apart from being limited, his divine energy also had to be contained, and even part of his physical being.
"Phew, I'll have to keep this in mind for future trips. If I accidentally destroy the world after arriving, it'll be very embarrassing."
Only 7% was the energy that a world of the Grand Universe level could withstand. Of course, even with that small percentage, he would still stand at the undisputed top of this world.
Riveria raised her eyebrows after hearing her God's words. She had not yet realized how powerful her God was. After all, Genkai, unable to use his divinity, only had a strength level of 3.
"I see... By the way, earlier you called this universe Mushoku Tensei, do universes have names?" Riveria frowned and raised the question that had been bothering her.
"Oh no, it's nothing official or anything; it's just the name I gave it," Kaylon said, explaining to Riveria that he came from a world where everyone was caricatured stories, so it would undoubtedly be complicated to explain.
"'Mushoku Tensei,' reincarnated in another world?... If you named it that, it means you have an idea of the story of this world, right?"
"Well, Riveria, you know, as a primordial, I can see the future and the past, so I've already thoroughly researched this world to have an idea of where to go and who to recruit in the future," Kaylon boasted proudly.
Indeed, as a primordial, he has that ability, but knowing the anime in his past life, he didn't waste time observing too much; he just did a little review to know which timeline they were in and if the story followed the original pattern.
"So you know it, I see. Well, tell me how this world is composed and who we will recruit," the elf asked with clear curiosity, hopeful of being able to recruit good members for the future family.
"Hehe, Riveria, why don't we consider this a family trip? Don't you think it would be boring if I showed you the whole future of the world? Isn't it better to experience it for yourself? That's why I also didn't deeply look into the future timeline of this world, just some parts. It will be more fun that way."
Riveria remained silent upon hearing her God's words and then nodded.
"Uh, this... You're right; if I know everything, it will undoubtedly be less exciting. So at least explain to me the history of this world and its common sense." As an adventurer, the unknown is undoubtedly something she loves, so she accepted her God's words.
"Haha, of course! Then come closer; I'll transmit it to your mind so it'll be easier and we won't waste so much time." The God touched Riveria's forehead and passed her a summary of the world's history, common sense, and information about powers, such as magic and the art of touki.
After receiving the information, Riveria furrowed her brow slightly in a sign of slight discomfort and then settled in to begin digesting the information given by her God.
While Riveria finished digesting the information given to her, Kaylon had time to think more deeply about his goals in this world.
The first objective would be magic. Unlike Danmachi, where it is mostly innate, magic in Mushoku is much more volatile, as it directly interacts with the elements of the world, making it more comprehensive. Acquiring the greatest knowledge of magic here would greatly help his family, especially when Riveria's future elven followers arrive; with the magic of Mushoku, both Riveria and her elves will undoubtedly become incredible mages.
Secondly, it would be about finding the future members of the family. In this world, there are many unique and incredible talents to recruit.
Potential members like Eris, Sylphie, Ghislaine, Cliff, Rujierd, even Paul and Rudeus are all great talents to recruit. Of course, for Paul and Rudeus, he would have to wait until after the fittoa disaster, as after that, their characters truly grew. The current ones are just two perverted monsters who will mess with any woman who breathes.
(For Paul and Rudeus, we have to wait until their best moment to add them, for example, Paul after desperately searching for his family for years; that's when he matured a lot and became a true family man, while for Rudeus, it's mainly after the misunderstanding with Eris... It's not that I don't like their initial personalities, it's just that they are incompatible with an elf, straight, cultured, and reserved like Riveria).
Well, those would be the main objectives of the trip; the rest will come as their journey progresses. As for being afraid of wasting time, Kaylon isn't afraid; the time in both worlds is different. For example, several decades could pass here, while only a few years would pass in Danmachi.
Primordial worlds have a much slower time dilation. (The time they return to in Danmachi will be just after the fall of Hera and Zeus and the beginning of Orario's dark era).
"Now the current timeline is a year and a half before Rudeus leaves for the city of Roa, so I should go to Rudeus' village to make a connection with him and his family before he leaves; that will make it easier when I invite them in the future."
If he invites Rudeus or Paul, the rest of their family will also come with them. Not that he minds; Zenith with her healing magic is very useful, and Lilia is a good administrator.
After Rudeus leaves, I can go with Riveria to the magical university of Ranoa; going through the magical disaster is necessary for the Greyrats for them all to grow, although I will prevent Zenith from falling into the crystal, I will keep the rest the same.
Having finished organizing his future course of action, he directed the cart to Rudeus' village.
Auge Auge
As Kaylon was preparing, a noise brought him back to his senses. He turned around and saw a Riveria who had stood up and was staring at him with a red face out of excitement. Kaylon couldn't help but shiver under Riveria's gaze.
"Magic! Give me magic! Come on! Come on! Give me a book, a guide, anything now!"
Riveria simply couldn't contain herself after learning about the magic in this world; she almost burst with excitement. Magic in Danmachi isn't very advanced; being mostly innate, few people take the time to research it, but here it's different. Magic research is extremely profound, making her eyes shine like never before.
"Uh, Riveria, calm down, calm down. Don't worry, here I have the guides; I took them from the magical university of Ranoa. There are elemental, beginner, and advanced levels, and for the saint rank, we have to go there." Kaylon had anticipated a reaction from Riveria when she found out about the magic here; he didn't imagine it would be so strong, but he was prepared just in case.
"Give it to me!!!"
After knowing they were magical guides, Riveria immediately snatched them from her God's hand, then curled up on the side with the book between her legs.
For a moment, Riveria's image overlapped with that of a bald dwarf walking on all fours and saying, "My precious!"
...
After a long journey of about 4 hours, they finally approached the village. Of course, the reason for the delay was mainly because Kaylon wanted to enjoy the scenery, and besides, Riveria was still engrossed in that magical guide, so Kaylon thought to give her some time.
"Hey, Riveria, we're approaching the place where we'll be staying for a while. Can you put the book aside while we greet and get organized?" Kaylon persuaded Riveria; after all, he didn't want the future family captain to give the impression of a hobbit from The Lord of the Rings.
"Tsk, couldn't you take any longer to arrive?" Riveria murmured under her breath.
"Ouch, my little heart..." Even though Kaylon's voice was low, he still heard it.
"Uhhh, sorry, Kami-sama, I'm a bit immersed in the guide and got irritable," Riveria apologized sincerely.
"It's okay, I understand, don't worry," Kaylon didn't take it seriously either.
"By the way, Kami-sama, is there anything special about the place we're going to stay?" Riveria doesn't believe her God would make a move without a reason; the place must have something special.
"As expected of my Riveria, you sensed it. Yes, in this place reside three great talents who will be excellent additions to our family," Kaylon said, but inwardly, he thought Riveria's first impression of Rudeus and Paul would surely be terrible.
"Ummm, then wait for me to freshen up a bit; I want to make a good impression as the future captain," Riveria adjusted her clothes and hair.
"All right, I'll slow down; we're almost there," Kaylon slowed down the speed. After all, it's not normal to see a cart breaking the sound barrier.
After climbing the small hill and reaching the village, they saw a medieval-style village, mostly wooden houses, small, single-story.
As they passed by, several villagers curiously eyed the cart. After seeing the handsome man with golden hair and the beautiful elf with emerald-green hair, the villagers wondered if a noble had come to visit the village. However, not seeing any guards nearby made them doubt.
"By the way, Kami-sama, have you already found where we'll stay? Just to let you know, I won't stay in a shared house with someone I don't know," the reserved elf resisted sharing her house with people who weren't family.
"Hehe, don't worry, Riveria. Let's just say that before coming here, I altered reality a bit so that an extra house would appear in the village. Don't worry; they'll think it was always there and that it was built for someone who would arrive a few years later," Kaylon casually mentioned actions that would break normal people's cognition.
"I really have to adapt to your omnipotence; otherwise, I'll probably die of shock someday. By the way, how's the house? Is it comfortable?" Riveria was speechless; if her cognition hadn't already been broken earlier, she would be shocked now. After complaining, she quickly asked about her home; for an elf, her home in her temple is important, so it needs to be perfect.
"Oh, don't worry; the house is fine. It's made of 1000-year-old marble wood, polished and clean, two floors, four bedrooms, two studies, a large kitchen and living room, two bathrooms, and a large basement." When it comes to style, if Kaylon assures, he's second to none; no one dares to be the first.
"Well, leaving that aside, let's go meet my future children!" Kaylon and Riveria headed to the largest house in the village, where the Grayrat family lived, along with the guardian knight of the village.

POV Rudeus Greyrat
At this moment, there was a lot of movement in the Grayrat house.
Zenith and Lilia were cooking, Paul was organizing some boxes at the back, and the whole family was busy except for me.
I was engaged in an important task: building my 1200th statue of my Goddess Roxi Miguard.
TOMM TOMM
Suddenly, a knock on the door was heard. Rudeus, who was focused, stopped and looked towards the door. If it had been before, maybe the idea of going to open the door would have made him afraid, but thanks to his Goddess Roxi-sama, he now had nothing to fear.
"Rudeus, can you please open the door!" Zenith's voice came from the kitchen.
"I'm coming, Mom!" Rudeus quickly headed to the door. After unlocking and opening it, he was met with a beautiful sight.
A tall man about 1.90 meters tall, with golden hair down to his shoulders, bright golden eyes, and an imposing aura (I forgot to mention that Kaylon turned off his divine aura to blend in better). Behind the man, an elf could easily be identified due to her long ears, long emerald-green hair, and beautiful emerald-green eyes. Describing her as beautiful, in Rudeus's opinion, was simple.
"What a beautiful elf!" Rudeus couldn't help but blush and speak timidly.
"Hehehe, hello there, little friend. I'm looking for the village knight to inform him of something," the tall and handsome man spoke, snapping Rudeus out of his daze.
"Oh, you need my father. Wait a moment; I'll call him immediately," Rudeus ran to his father, embarrassed, while he heard the man's light laughter.
'Oh my god, I must have seemed like a virgin... I mean, I am a virgin, but you don't have to make it so obvious.' Completely unaware that he's only 7 years old and that if he weren't a virgin, it would be illegal, Rudeus complained about his virginity.
Rudeus reached the back room and found his father trying to assemble some kind of chair, which in Rudeus's opinion looked more like a torture device.
"Dad, a tall man and a beautiful elf are at the door; they say they need you."
Paul, who was desperate trying to shape a chair, suddenly heard his son's voice.
"A tall man and an elf?" Paul was surprised. 'Hmm, could it be Elinalise? But a tall man? I don't know many tall names, maybe one of his partners? Well, who knows; let's see.'
"Then let's go," Paul got up and headed to the door.
"By the way, Dad, don't be stunned when you see the elf; she's very, very beautiful," Rudeus warned his father. He didn't want father and son to be embarrassed in the same way.
"Uh, she's very beautiful?" Paul nodded as if he understood. 'Then she must be Elinalise. I wonder who the tall man is.'
"Too beautiful to be real," Rudeus couldn't help but remember the beauty of the elf and daydream a little.
Both headed to the door for a meeting that would change their lives.
--------------------------------------------------------
Well, this officially begins the interaction between the characters. I'm planning for the MC to spend a year and a half with the Grayrat family to build bonds and make it easier to invite them in the future.
After Rudeus leaves, the MC and Riveria will go to the magical university of Ronoa, where Riveria and the MC will be teachers for a while.
If you have any suggestions for the story, feel free to share them. If it fits into my story and I like it, I'll add it.
THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT!
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
Cozmooo
Cozmooo "I was reviewing my chapters and now I realize that 2000 words are really too few, so from now on I'll aim for 3000 words. I can't do more because I'm doing daily updates, it's difficult to write...
Or I could also make chapters between 6k - 7k words, but then I would upload 1 chapter every 2 days. Please comment on your preference."
