A Cliché Multiverse story - Chapter 558: Asking for help

A/N: Sup friends.

…

When the crystals overhead lost their luster and the night cycle began, Fafnir flew back to Asahi. They were sleeping unflinching even as Medusa’s icy glare bore down on them.

“Father, you are sleeping in the enemy’s lair. What admirable confidence.”

Her appearance caused Asahi to wake up. He noticed Medusa’s stalkerish behavior and smirked. “Medusa, keep stalking me. It’s kinda cute.”

There was something exciting about having a mysterious stalker.

Medusa growled. “Gods arrogant… Pathetic.”

“Mother, you shall not harm father as long as I stand guard here,” Fafnir said. “I’ll protect Aria with my life.”

“Grrrr.”

While Fafnir butted heads with Tartarus aka Medusa, Asahi patted Fafnir’s head and carried Aria to one of her houses. Before he left for Loki’s room.

The trickster goddess stood on the balcony of her tower, her black gown billowing in the night breeze. Moonlight spilled over her as she looked up at the twinkling stars and took a sip of her wine, letting out a contented sigh.

“Did ya have fun with Aria?”

Asahi stood beside her and observed the changes happening in the city for Astraea’s wedding. “Aria was wild.”

He recounted everything that happened before and after he slept with Aria, coming clean about his deed.

Loki wasn’t surprised to hear about Aria’s explosive anger after she dragged One-Eyed Black Dragon to the dungeon. Ais and Aria acted similarly when faced with frustration.

“The prim, proper mother of Ais Wallenstein dragged her daughter’s sworn brother to her bed for a one-night stand. She is also a bitch on sheets.” Loki chuckled. “Ya can’t judge a book by its cover.”

Asahi nodded. “Ais has her passion, to be honest. She isn’t good at expressing her emotions. Well, except for anger and confusion.”

Loki turned to him with a smirk. “When will ya tell Ais about this new relationship with her Mama?”

“That’s… gonna be tough.”

Just imagining the conversation made him feel awkward.

“Geez, aren’t ya the Demon King? Just walk up to Ais, take her hand, and declare, I’ll be taking yer mother as mah woman and ya as my little chick. It’s that simple.” Loki went down on one knee and took his hand, as if acting out the fantasy in her head. “Ya got what I am sayin’?”

“You’re forgetting Ais’s age.”

“Ah, then change some stuff. Ya can do it.” Loki got back to her feet and patted his back. “Ya visited Fei Fei before Aimi’s fight?”

“Hephaestus?” He recalled his last, abrupt meeting with Hephaestus. She was being a worrywart, showing concern for him like Shizuka used to. “Yup.”

“What did ya do to make her shut-in again? Except for today’s battle, she hadn’t gone out since you visited her. She is not even reading my messages!”

(Don’t worry about Hephaestus. She has discovered a new passion other than blacksmithing. This is her closed door cultivation to master the new talent!)

‘Damn.’

Asahi waved off Loki’s concerns. Apparently, Hephaestus had been ignoring all the messages on her phone as well as the chat group made up of Astraea, Loki, and Hephaestus. He felt like he was better off staying ignorant about their topics of conversation.

Loki leaned closer and hooked her arm around his. “I saw too much shit in the dungeon… give me a relaxin’ fuck and put me to sleep.”

It was easier to forget her real age when she acted so spoiled.

Asahi slept with Loki, then spent some time with Klyscha until she fell asleep. As his family grew, Klyscha had to spend more and more time guiding them. It was something only she could do in his family. He tucked Klyscha into her futon and glanced toward Ddraig, who was quietly following his actions in her small dragon form.

She grinned, two cute fangs poking out. “Training?”

He chuckled and shook his head. “Not today. I’ll be meeting with Ruby.”

Ddraig pouted and wriggled into Klyscha’s futon. “I’ll kick her ass one day.”

Her rivalry with Ruby wouldn’t end until he brought them to the same bed. While Ruby would be down for that, Ddraig might not.

‘I’ll just order her.’

A sadistic smirk surfaced on his face. Ddraig felt chills inside the warm futon and peeked out. He had gone. Otherwise, she may have entered her masochist mode at the sight of him.

Meanwhile, Asahi stepped into another dream world that Klyscha had so lovingly crafted for Ddraig’s training and her first time. It was still preserved as a special memento. He could see the lush gardens, sun-drenched meadows, and tall trees that made up the landscape—and there, right in the middle of it, was a giant red dragon dozing off in the sun.

“Ruby?”

Ruby, who was in her dragon form, turned to the voice. “Asahi? What are you doing here?”

Ruby was expecting Klyscha to come and train her. Instead, Asahi interrupted her during her sleep. She shifted into her humanoid form and embraced him tightly.

“You sought me for mating, right?”

Asahi placed his hand around her waist. “Be patient, please. I need your help.”

He knew a dragon’s appetite for sex from his experience with Ddraig. If he fucked her now, she wouldn’t be able to focus and finish his task in time.

Ruby’s eyes widened in surprise. “Are my ears ringing or did my all-powerful mate ask me for help?”

“I need your expertise on dreams.”

A pleased grin made its way to her face. “Ah, it’s for that.”

Asahi’s control over dreams was terrible, to say the least. And he wasn’t investing any time in learning the divinity his wife could twist with her hands.

“Will you help me?”

“Of course… it’s not like I have anything else to do.” Her enthusiastic smile faded as she thought about her monotone life. While Asahi added liveliness to her life, he couldn’t be with her forever. “I really want to topple Klyscha and keep you all to myself.”

She spoke her mind plainly, without making an effort to hide her intentions or motives. This was a trait that most dragons shared, a trait that made them notorious for their straightforwardness and unwillingness to scheme behind others’ backs. She was capable of scheming and plotting but it would take more effort than she was willing to expend.

“I’ll be surrounded by yandere if this goes on…” He sighed and shook off the heavenly world from his imaginations. “Come with me. I’ll fill you in on the way.”

“Fill me with your seed!”

“Why are you hornier than me all the time?”

“It was you who awakened the lust within me. I shall not stop before bearing your child.”

“…”
