After many hours of cooking and teaching a few men and women that worked in the commercial kitchen a few crab recipes, Scarlet finally got a chance to relax in the evening but rather than do that, she used that time to train. In a few days, she would be challenging number fifteen on the division one virtual champions roll. Everyone had it in the back of their minds that she was coming for number twenty or ten but she decided to switch it up and give the paladins a break. They were probably training hard, especially number twenty and ten who were expecting to meet her in the ring. How surprised would they be when she didn't pick them.

"Again," Severus barked at her, "The hallucination skill works when it's not broken and you have been holding it only for forty seconds. It needs to be more terrifying, stronger and as real as possible."

She projected the hallucination again, still zombies for twenty five seconds and it broke.

"Again." Severus barked. "What is holding your mind back?"

"I don't know." she answered in an irritated tone. "It was not as if she wasn't trying but a lot of mental energy went into that skill. Her mind easily felt drained the longer she held on and the more she used it, the shorter and shorter the time span became.

"This hallucination skill if mastered will be an ace card for you like Black Dalia's mist. So far, you are one of the few grim reapers of the leaderboard with no special skill and you are playing around with this one. Do you want to lose? Is that it?"

"I am trying you know, don't growl at me."?she stomped her foot and sat down in the middle of the training ground.

"No breaks." Severus barked.

"I have been going at it for one hour Severus, I am missing something, let's think about it for a while." She lay there, looking at the painted glass up on the high ceiling. It reminded her of church, it was like those blue colored glass windows with images of Jesus.?"Do you think this planet needs a church?" she abruptly asked Severus.

"I think you need to be training and churches are temples, what's the difference?" he kicked her foot with his paw, trying to urge her to stand up.

"You can't sing in a temple," she raised her body up and looked at him, "Or can you." her eyes shifted from the left to the right. "I watched a few Indian movies back then and sometimes they would sing in their temples."

"Then build a church for people to sing I don't care, get up, rumor has it that Ulysses is training hard to get you within one month. He does not just want to defeat you he is going to challenge you to an Ummu again." Severus's impatient voice persisted. Scarlet's lackadaisical attitude was really annoying him.

"Ah, that annoying reaper, I will force him to utter the words I surrender the day I get my hands on him in a fight. I will get him back for that coward like blow he dealt me. Do you know that it's being used as a teaching aid on constant awareness the forum? First it was the video of me being tricked by the old deity and then me being beaten by Ulysses. I hate this so much, I am famous for mostly the wrong reasons." she grumbled and kicked her legs in a tantrum like movement.

"All the more reason to redeem your reputation."?Severus told her. "Come on, one last try and then it's just physical training."

Scarlet however lay back down and Severus groaned, he would have to resort to some tricks it seemed.

"Why didn't you tell me that grim reapers could not have children at all?" She asked him this question out of nowhere. Severus had not been expecting it.

"You already knows, it's in the welcome to grim reaper hood package section of the forum which most newbies never read. I thought you were crazy when you talked about wanting to have another child with your human husband. It's not exactly impossible but it's ninety nine point nine percent possible that it will never happen. You will spend the thousands of years eating these hell fruits until you give up."

Scarlet rose up again, and gave Severus a questioning look. "Go back." she told him. She had just heard some information which she was not aware of.

"The hell fruits..."

"More." She yelled softly.

"Ninety nine....."

"There." she raised her hand to stop him from talking. "I have been multitasking all day, cooking as I searched for more information on why grim reapers cannot reproduce even though we inhabit human bodies. I mean we can fall in love, marry, get intimate and do the nasty but children is where the line is crossed, its ridiculous!! All the information was negative, zero, no hope but you just mentioned one slim chance so spill."

"I don't know much except what I heard from my mother as a small hound, the hell fruit can help grim reapers reproduce which is why Lythia grows it and distributes it to female grim reapers, hounds and all female spiritual pets but while it works for all other creatures, it has refused to work for repears."

"Is that all?" she asked when he said nothing more.

"Should there be something else?" he asked in an equally puzzled voice.

"Yes," she answered, it was obvious to her that his brief explanation did not even cover a drop in the ocean of the explanation. "Think Severus, if Lythia makes sure that female grim reapers eat the hell fruit then it's possible that maybe a long time ago it worked for female reapers. Ergo, it's possible for me to have a child. I need to speak to her right now."

"Stop." Severus said in a serious voice.

"What?" she was confused. All she was going to do was research more about the hell fruit and try to meet Lythia for an explanation.

"Even if you could give birth to a child what will be? Half human-half grim reaper, isn't that a monster of sorts? Okay, let's say it turns out to be fully human, will you be okay living forever while you watch the child you loved so much age and die? Will you be able to handle reaping their soul and sending them to the unknown? And what if you can't reap their soul out of love, making all sorts of excuses and extending their stay in the world what happens when it starts feeding on other souls? Will you accompany it forever and deliver innocent souls for it to devour? There are many reasons why grim reapers should not have children and all those reasons are just. freewebnove(l)

I went to my mother recently with questions when you mentioned having a child and all she said was that it's not necessarily a good thing when reapers reproduce because the reapers themselves turn into humanities worst nightmare, worse than soul eaters because they would do anything in order to protect their human children or make them immortal. Therefor, even if a reaper has a child, it has to be a spiritual child, if it's not, it has to be killed before it grows to adulthood. Would you accept for your child to be killed simply because it's fully human? This issue is far more complicated than it looks. So, please, leave it alone and work hard at being strong because it's the most important thing for both of us right now. I am pathetically weak because my power is tied to you, the weaker you are, the weaker I am. Get your head on straight right now."
