"Eat up to your heart's content, I know that you are hungry since we have been out for the whole day already. The Food here might not be as great, but it's still passable right?" Yuki smiled as she also slowly ate her own food. She was not lying when she said that, but if she was still given a choice, she would rather not eat this food since it was still quite lacking in some aspects that Yuki would want to be filled. On her right, Amane was also in the same position as her, as someone who had lived for quite a long time and was even royalty, all the food she had tasted can't be simply compared to what she was eating right now, but even if it was lacking, Amane still thinks that it was a better experience than in the past.
Eating food with her beloved daughter was everything she could have dreamed of, but in her mind, it was such a waste that she didn't have the chance to show off her cooking skills. If only she had more time, she would spend all of them beside Aika without wasting any time, not even a second, she would use it to fill the gap that was missed in her and her daughter's heart. But sadly, she could only dream of it because it was simply impossible for her to do something like that, and once she thinks about this kind of thought, her mood slowly goes down but she didn't dare to reveal it, she only kept it to herself because it would simply be harder for her to pass if she sees her daughter saddened face.
Yuki who saw the fluctuations of emotions in Amane's eyes couldn't have but sighed as she then glanced at the System Window that she had just received from her System. She had received another Mission, but it was different from the other missions that she have done in the past, if in the past, some of the Missions were manipulated by Ayame and Serene, or even by her surroundings, the Mission that she got this time was definitely didn't came from any of them. It came from something within the System itself.

"This is just now getting amusing, Fubuki is now giving me choices in what to do about Amane's Situation, and I can already tell that it's not because of the current situation, but this thing is actually testing me…" Yuki said in an extremely dark voice, but no one heard her as she only said it in her mind, and because she is much more skilled in hiding emotions than Amane, no one found that something was already happening inside of Yuki.
"It even gives me no choice since the punishment is death… This damn thing, I just can't wait for the day when you beg for me not to devour you. Let's just see if you can still act like this then." Yuki said in an even darker voice as she didn't even intend to hide her leaking bloodlust that for sure the System could feel, and since it can hear her every thought, it doesn't even matter. But for now, she can't do anything and just do as the System told her which was to pick something out of the three missions and she can't really decide what to do, she doesn't even care what kind of rewards she would get, what she only cares about is what her daughter and Amane would like to do.
If she really kills Amane, Aika doesn't have to know that, but there Yuki could somehow feel that there would be a lingering guilt that would haunt her for a long time if she kills her. The second choice was out of the question, that is probably the last thing she would want to do because she would actually want to make a change, and for the last option which was to revive her, it was the option that she likes more. But the main problem was that she would be the one who needed to find a way to extend her life, no not even extent, but to completely revive her.
"Ahhh, shit… This is hard, I want to revive her so that Aika wouldn't be so lonely when I am gone. Plus it's a good thing if she can have someone other than me who she can look up to, after all… I don't want her to be like me and there are already signs of it happening, and I at least want to prevent that. If not, I want her to be more like Amane, she's just the right person." Yuki sighed as she began to rack her brain of some ways she could bring Amane back to life. She even begins to try and mix the ways of the Mortal Realm and Immortal Realm, but even no matter what kind of theory she makes, it all seems that it would fail immediately as soon as she tries it. And she wouldn't want to take a risk, especially when it comes to a special person in her eyes.
"Wait… The Soul Realm is also the place where one's Soul resides, so if I make it stronger again, shouldn't that be enough for her to be resurrected again? But… There are a lot of risks in it since I would literally need to cut it open and force-feed it with power so that it can be revived again." Yuki muttered to herself as thousands of thoughts began to run through her mind to see if she could really do it, but in all the theories that she ran in her mind, she really thinks that it was possible, but she then remembered something crucial in that.
"Oh, fuck… I can't take the Soul Realm out of her body since it would only cause her to die quickly, plus her Soul is connected to every part of the Soul Veins in her body. So that means I would need to perform the surgery while the Soul Realm is still inside her body… and because of this, it only made it harder for me to achieve it." Yuki sighed heavily as she felt her plan slowly crumbling away. Usually, it wouldn't be hard especially if the Soul Realm is located in a relatively easy spot where she can perform the surgery easily, but if it's somewhere hard then it's all another different story since it would make it a ton harder.
And the most important thing that she needs to consider is Amane's Physical body, if some of the powers that she fed to the Soul Realm could leak out, it would bring disaster to her since it would kill her instantly. And for her last concern, she has yet to actually know what Rank is Amane's Soul Realm, if it was a high Ranking one, she would need to sacrifice a lot of Soul Realms in order for it to work.
"Things are getting much more complicated…"
