DC: Leave my Cat alone

Chapter 40: I am a dad now?

As I looked at the system's new notifications, I couldn't help but be a little shocked.

[Name: Anya Morningstar 

Summon number 5

Description: Anya is an orphan from the world of Spy x Family, who is a gifted child with supernatural powers. Anya has the power of telepathy and is someone who desperately wants a family like other children. She is someone who will be loyal to the host till -the end of the world.-

Reason for summon: The host had an empty feeling, a lack of purpose in the world, so now the host has a purpose. Since the host wants to have a happy family, have it with Anya as a daughter]

???

I became a dad?

Just like that?

That was not something I had expected at all, and honestly not something I wanted either.

I am 21?! What the hell am I going to do with a child?!

How do I explain this to the rest of the world?

Am I even prepared to take care of a child? I have a flying robot that is basically a walking weapon, Tom and the most dangerous of them all-Buzz.

He would be a horrible influence on a child!

As I read the system message, a pink portal formed at the other side of the room, getting everyone's attention.

"Oh this is fascinating!" Buzz said in excitement as he looked at the portal opening up slowly.

As the portal seemed to fully open, from inside of it a young girl walked out with slight apprehension.

Her hand was raised into the air, as if she was grabbing something and she was curiously looking around, but she was clearly overwhelmed by the whole thing.

Her initial apprehension became mock panic and she moved to hide behind something.

'What the hell is she hiding behind?'

But the thing is, whatever she was hiding behind was invisible to the rest of us.

The little girl's head immediately moved towards mine in shock and she tapped what was in front of her, as if she was a mime.

Then tears formed around her eyes and she seemed as if she was about to cry.

She grabbed the toy that was in her hands really tightly and tried to stay strong.

'This is what I mean, I am not even prepared to deal with any of this!'

"It's just a kid." Naruto voiced his thoughts out loud, and just casually looked at Anya without really feeling anything.

Hinata calmly walked towards Anya and threw her a gentle smile while raising her hand out.

Anya looked up at whatever she was holding, as if asking for confirmation that this was safe.

"Hi, my name is Hinata. What is your name?" Hinata asked gently so as to not spook the kid.

"I-I am Anya!" She mustered her courage and said her name, but she refused to make any eye contact with Hinata as she looked away.

"Is she just an ordinary Human? She doesn't seem like it." And of course, the advanced robot didn't care about boundaries and began to scan Anya.

Anya got spooked by the flying robot and tried to hide her face from Steel.

"Human, that is pointless."

Tom who was currently sitting on the sofa nearby became angry with Steel's lack of manners so he stood up from his place and angrily walked towards the robot.

He then grabbed the robot from the air and pulled it away from Anya.

"Hey Cat, let me go!"

Yet no matter what Steel said, Tom was having none of it, so he brought Steel into a completely different room.

"For once I believe you are right, cat!" Buzz, who was still sitting on Tom's head, said in support.

Anya who peaked at the interaction through her fingers couldn't help but giggle.

"So you can smile!" Naruto said happily as he walked closer to Anya too.

This time, Anya didn't get spooked and she replied, "Of course I can smile, Anya is wonderful!"

"That you are!" Hinata replied as she cheered for the little girl.

While this entire interaction was going on, my brain calmed down and I comprehended the fact that I now had a daughter.

I walked closer to her, trying to be confident, and knelt down in front of her too.

Anya watched with her curious eyes as I knelt in front of her, she then turned back right to where the portal and the mysterious thing she came with was.

Seemingly getting some sort of conformation, her face brightened into a massive smile and she looked at me with happiness radiating from her face.

"Are you my new papa?"

For some reason, the words didn't struggle to leave my mouth.

In fact, some deep part of me seemed more happy than anything for being able to answer this question.

"Yes, yes I am." 

Hinata and Naruto moved to the side a little so that Anya could get a better look of me.

Her little head then went between me and the portal she had just come out of multiple times before she finally settled on the portal.

She then waved her hand and said, "Thanks mister, Anya is happy!"

As she said that, the portal slowly began to close and whoever had brought Anya here had left.

"Anya." I called out, to which she turned towards me. "Who is the person you came here with?"

"You mean the nice mister?"

"Yes, I mean the nice Mister."

After that Anya gave us a quick description of what happened to her and how she met a man who basically looks like an angel.

'Was that a physical representation of the system?'

Anya looked at me curiously, since she clearly heard what I was thinking.

I could see her tilt her head in confusion since she didn't know what the system was.

Well it seemed like this manifestation of the system for Anya didn't tell her anything about actually being a 'system' and left that explanation to me.

That's fine, since it isn't really so hard to explain.

"So what do you want to do now, Anya?" I questioned the little girl.

Anya, who was still gripping her toy, raised it into the air and said in excitement.

"Nice Mister said that papa will play with Anya all the time!"

It seems like that was the system's contract with Anya.

Every single Summon was promised something in exchange for coming into the world and joining me.

Toms was that I would provide him a healthy home with lots of food and love.

Buzz was that he would be able to go on many missions with me and have a lot of exciting adventures.

Steels was that he would be able to explore an entire new Universe and live, since he was inactive before.

Narutos was that he could meet his biggest fan, while exploring a new world and using its resources to help his own world.

Anya's should be similar to Toms, but also that she will have a happy family that will love her too.

As I thought of Anya's backstory and childhood, my heart strings couldn't help but tug a little, as I got slightly emotional.

And what other way was there to displays one's emotions than with a massive hug?
