"Come on son why did you take so long to come eat breakfast with your family?"
"I'm sorry, I was busy dealing with stuff... Uh, checking on my homework."
"Doing homework at this hour? Hah... oh well."
Frank still couldn't believe it, he was now sitting right in front of the dinning room table, being served the breakfast his mother always prepared for him when he was younger.
It was at this age when he discovered his powers that everything went to the absolute garbage... The "dreams" he had felt strangely long, being several years since this age.
In fact he even had kids in such dreams... He felt like he still missed them despite having realized it wasn't real.
"Big brother you shouldn't be doing your homework early in the morning..."
Frank glanced at the little girl by his side, with long black hair and bright blue eyes, she was his sister, Kamei. Because his father had left them long ago, his mother ended marrying another man after a few years, moving to Japan.
Kamei here was the daughter of that man, Frank's stepfather, a Japanese man with a gentle smile and a cheerful nature, Okita Katsumi.
"Kimiko, let your brother be," said Okita, smiling gently. He had short black hair, bright eyes and always wore his glasses while reading the news on his tablet. "So did you do them Frank?"
"Ah yes," nodded Frank. "Sorry for worrying you though, I'll try to do them after class next time."
"Hah, alright, alright," his mother placed a big plate of pancakes in front of him, including whipped cream and strawberries with lots of syrup. "Eat up, I made your favorites today. Happy birthday son, I love you."
Frank's mother, who looked a lot like him, with similarly brown-coloerd hair, which was long and silky, bright blue eyes and a slender figure, kissed Frank in the forehead.
"B-Birthday?" Frank asked. "Was it my birthday? I didn't remember..."
"Of course it's your birthday, you're 17 now, aren't you?" his mother said. "Has the school been stressing you a lot? I've heard Japanese schools are much more exhausting than American schools..."
"Ah, he's adapting well, he's a smart boy," said Okita with a smile. "Right Frank? Well, boy wouldn't be good now, you're a young man now! Hahah! Happy birthday. I was panning on giving your gift tonight at dinner, but screw it! Here."
Okita suddenly placed a huge box over the table.
"E-Eh? A gift?"
Frank quickly recalled...
When was the last time he ever celebrated his own birthday?
That dream, that long, long dream he had...
He fought, and fought, and fought...
Was there even a time he could properly rest?
Maybe sometimes, small days, small weeks.
But the never-ending battles, stress, death, destruction...
He had to abandon his life on Earth, constantly escaping to other worlds only to find even more chaos there.
The only place he was truly safe was within his Divine Realm but... it was never the same.
"Oooh?! A PS5?! And three games?!"
Frank opened the box to find an amazing birthday gift.
"Hahaha! Yeah, happy birthday Frank! Your grades have been good so far, so we felt that giving you something you deserved was necessary."
"T-Thanks a lot dad..."
"Ah... No problem son."
(Kireina's POV)
SPLASH!
We crawled out of the ocean after having fallen over it when we fell from the skies, the ocean was strangely cold, and it was harder than I thought to swim to the shore for some reason.
And above all else, when I realized what had happened to my body- no, to our bodies, it was perhaps a bit too late.
"W-What?!" Brontes cried. "Why is my skin not copper-colored?! And why am I so small now? At least my hair is somewhat normal- Ah! Why is it not metallic?!"
"Where are my scales at! This is so weird!" Nesiphae complained. "My tail is gone, and I got
huge legs! Oh wow this is freaking creepy! Ewww! I'm going to puke..."
"Hmm... I'm... huh? Not blue?" Rimuru asked, looking at her new body. "Woow! I'm not made
of slime either! What is this?! And I don't speak weird anymore..."
"Kireina... you too!" Zehe was having the same problems, as she glanced at me.
"Eh?" I looked at my hands, then my body. "Huh?!"
Somehow, all of us had suddenly become... humans.
No monstrous traits remained, but our appearances were simply turned human-like. Horns disappeared, special eyes were gone, scales, wings, none of that existed anymore. All of us retained our skin color if it was compatible with humans, hair color, eye color, and general height comparable to what's humanely possible.
"Uhh... I've never been this small before..." Truhan muttered. "My skin... it's no longer red?! Not even green! Ah! Celica?!"
"Truhan?!" Celica screamed. "I'm small too?!"
They weren't that small; they were much taller than me even in these human forms!
"Ugh, I think I'm having nausea..." Gaby groaned. "Having no gills is really strange... I have to like... breathe only with my lungs? But they're only air sacks- Ugh..."
"Hmm... Well it doesn't feel too weird," Altani shrugged. "I look almost identical than before
I gained draconic traits."
"Me too! You girls are exaggerating a bit," giggled Lilith. "And these clothes are weird but kind of nice? I like the skirt!"
Of course you'll say that, after all you two were always humans...
And honestly I do feel kind of fine too? I mean although they were fake, I do have memories of
being huma before.
Although such memories are from a guy, so being a human with my female self is strangely... interesting.
Ah yeah, and above all else, we were wearing school uniforms.
"Masteeeer... I'm tinyyyy..."
Wall emerged from the oceans, only being as big as a sea turtle, and shaped as one too, with a
blue shell.
"Oh..."

These messages are similar to some sort of Constellation too.
And I can sense his presence all over the place here.
It's like... he made this?
