Chapter 12: My First Egg is Bigger than My Body.
[Kumon the Kitten]
Silenced filled the throne room.
Separated by layers of defense magic deployed by the Emperor’s guard, the sleepy Empress sat on the throne.
“I wish for the annihilation of the Corrupted Crows that took over our world, for my child to be released from this dreaded curse and for the child to live his life blissfully.” The fiery figure spoke, her eyes unwavering.
“A matriarch vengeance is as deep as the ocean. If vengeance you seek, you shall get it. The payment will be the home world of your kind and everything in it. Do you accept?”
She nodded in reply.
On Kumon’s left, a small dimension crack open. Jumping out from the abyss unknown was a single pitch-black slime with the two red dots as eyes.
“HAHAHAHA, it’s seems the rumors are true. Truth reincarnated. The single link to Fate himself with the material plane. For what reason have you brought me here, oh Truth?”
“Today is your lucky day Beelzebub, Lord of Gluttony. Seek out the Corrupted Crows and devour them till the last of their kind.”
“A meal? Truly a weird one you are. Truth had always been aloof and never spoke, let alone treat this Lord for a meal. I wonder, what was the price she paid to move one of the Seven …”
“Go and enjoy your crows.” Kumon cut him off and threw him back to the abyss with her mouth. Treating him no different than a young kitten carried by her mother.
‘It seems the only way to keep him quiet is to stuff it with food’ She thought as the portal closes.
“For your second wish. The child you spoke off has been marked by Death. To grant thy wish will require another life as payment. The life of the requester.”

Without even blinking, the fiery figure nodded again.
“Truly amazing. A mother's love knows no boundaries. Indeed.”
Materializing on the fiery figure for head, a scythe tattoo was formed.
“When one life end, another will reborn.”
“As for the last wish, the price is too high for you to pay. His fate is bound to carry the burden to be the last of his kind. Destined to be alone till the day he dies. And being the last flying fiery serpent, the dragons and the phoenix will be the bane of his existence. Forever to be hunted to secure their power in the realm of the beast.”
“But, there is a way. By binding him as my soul beast, he will no longer bound by his tragic fate. As the child’s mother, you could decide this for him. The price for the child to pay will be his form. He will be a human like those you see here. The traits of your kind will still be inherited by the human him. Thus allowing your bloodline to continue.”
Again she nods.
“I understand. Farewell Matriarch of the Flying Fiery Serpent. May your soul rest in peace.”
Slowly the scythe tattoo began to disappear along with the light inside her eyes.
What appeared after was the appearance of a single egg around 1 meter in height floating near the Empress.
Kumon wave her paw, .
Glass formed around the Matriarch corpse, preserving the other world beauty.
“Keep her safe in one of the chambers here, the child will surely want to see her mother’s smile in the future.”
As for the egg, a bit unsure of what to do, Kumon place it on top of the throne.
Carefully positioning the cushion as a makeshift nest.
‘Since it’s an egg, I have to make sure it’s warm.’ She thought.

Using her logic ‘If it’s an egg, you need to warm it’, Kumon then sat on the egg which was surprisingly hard for a serpent egg but comfortable enough to become Kumon’s futon.
Then Kumon expands her wings, just enough to cover the egg as a blanket before dozing off to sleep.
[Lady Avigail Aba, the Tenth Council Member]
Breathing in relieve, she ordered the various members in the 27 Aqua Layer Formation to stand down.
Reassuring them the threat is gone.
“It’s always a surprise with our Empress!” she said trying to hold her giggling.
“Yes, who would have thought the strongest of the fire elemental beast were wiped out and the sole heir is currently with us.”
“I wish the slime would eat me whole ><.”
“Umm, my lords aren’t we forgetting something? If the egg hatches, this will be the first time there will be a human becoming a Soul Beast.”
“That’s a large egg, I wonder if I can finish eating that large scramble egg by myself?”
“Enough already, we have a more pressing matters to focus now. The Kabeera Kingdom have called for the Seven Stars Alliance to gather and they are bringing the Hero.”
Author's Comment: (๑ↀᆺↀ๑)~~ nya2
If you find any mistake(s), please tell me. Thank You. ^^
Explanation about chapter 11: Why the massive info dump?
The reason is not really because of the story,
(Spoiler alert) although there are some foreshadowing there
but the main reason was because a post in novel updates about rrl and their massive drop rate.
Specifically the attitude of the readers commenting on a novel. or review they gave.
Thus the experiment,
Conclusion from the result, not as bad as i thought. I was hoping for pm condemning or at least a less constructive comment but to no avail.
I won't change the chapter though but will reedit it later.

The Isekai Police (aka "Earth's Advocates")
When evil kings summon kids from Earth to be used and abused as fast-leveling soldiers in their petty wars, the Isekai Police will be there to stop them. A group of ex-isekai protagonists in their own right, they utilize their collective skills to fight for the end of summoning abuse. Artyom Choi, cynical ex-hero and founding member of the organization, is sent to investigate the presence of an Earther on an innocently idyllic World where no summoning has supposedly taken place. His mission: rescue the Earther and figure out how he got there. Dark secrets lie beneath the surface of paradise, however. Will he be able to find this new hero and get out before whatever malicious forces brought them there doom them both? Book 1 has been finished! You can read Book 2 here in parallel or even before Book 1 if you want more TOAL than Artyom! https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/47708/the-isekai-police-hero-summonings-are-overrated This story is meant to be a deconstruction of the isekai genre that references and sometimes pokes fun at various tropes. Artyom isn’t some kid whose goal is to amass Levels or a harem. In fact, all he cares about is protecting other Earthers, and won’t let anything like that get in the way! So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr
