Goddess Wives x Eternal Dungeon - Chapter 51 11: No Going Back

Chapter 51  11: No Going Back

I was sitting against the headrest, stroking the soft scarlet hair of Flora as she slept against my thighs.

After cleaning the bed, she was so physically and mentally exhausted that she dropped between my legs and started snoring.

To think that a princess would throw away her purity so easily…

I don’t think this will end with a “Hey, I’m your son-in-law. Here are some fruits and coupons for a spa trip.”

More burdens…

[Title Gained]

Prince of the Halflings [Charm +2, Good Fate +20, Luck +5]

Yep… No going back.

[That midget took it like a champ. I think you rearranged her insides!]

As I was not really in the mood to interact with the crazy goddess, I pretended not to hear… But then she began to make moaning sounds in my head…

[Mmmm~ too thick, Flora~ Flora is going to break~ no waaay~ Fufu]

I hope this woman will stop or Eternia and Lupera will return soon and stop her. Yet there was a feeling that she might be at the current top of the power rankings, and I was doomed to her words.

[Eh~ do you hate me that much?]

Honestly, I didn’t, but my mind was in a relaxed sage mode after having sex with this little firecracker four times.

[But you did Aki like all night…]

Exactly… I did Aki all night now, this girl, and I will sleep with Elizabeth later. Let me have some rest so troublesome… Why do harem protagonists say they are fine sleeping with 10-20 women at once…

Bullshit!

I am fitter than all of them and dying with 3 women!

[Work those hips—stretch your thighs! You have 3 horny goddesses waiting to pounce on you!]

[Fight harder—feel the burn! Oh yeah!]

Slowly, the image of a voluptuous blonde doing those stupid TV exercises with a yoga mat and cheap headband entered my mind…

It did the job as I felt my loins stirring from the image of the strange woman with a beautiful face and a beauty spot below her right eye.

Nice ass too…

[REALLY!? THEN!!!]

[Sign these, please!]

Once again, her small form appeared, sitting on my shoulder with the same outfit and looking closer. I saw the small beauty spot and her pretty face.

Ah… I am a sucker for these women.

“I’m not signing the marriage documents…”

Because I was a little worked up, my voice was spoken instead of using my mind before the small halfling kicked me.

“Mmm… sign them….. already…. done the deed….. Zzz.”

[See, even your cute cock warmer says to sign them!]

Go to sleep, Asteria. Ñ00v€l–ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

[!!!]

Normally, I wouldn’t mind having fun with the girls, but I felt a little cranky and didn’t want to take it out on her or Flora. The constantly growing responsibilities and burdens felt like heavy iron weights shackling around my neck.

I didn’t mind at first, maybe foolish because I couldn’t understand how much they would grow.

Gently lifting her from my lap, I placed the cute Flora on the soft pillows and covered her with the feathered quilt. I gently kissed her head as she started groaning and breathing from her nose.

“Sleep well; thanks for the wonderful and special gift.”

Leaving the room, I closed the door with as little sound as possible before walking around the quiet guild. The time seemed to be rather late as the sky was dark, and there was no outside sound like today when people were gathering and trading together.

“You were quite rough last night…” A soft voice sounded, the flickering light of a candle revealing her pretty face and piercing blue eyes. “…Honestly, I never expected her to go this far, but she sounded very pleased.”

It was Lumia; her face and actions were nothing like the usual playful elf. In this light, I finally noticed that her ears were not full-length but shorter, making her a half-elf.

“Lumia…” “Do you know what my sister must endure because you slept with her?” A tone and voice that seemed to damn my soul to the foulest of hells. “I do not.” She slowly stood from her chair, the wood creaking as her nimble body approached.

Even in the darkness, my exceptional mana vision and dark vision could see the mixture of feelings in her eyes. I didn’t blame her—I wished this had happened. A person who wouldn’t affirm me but challenge my actions so I could face them properly instead of running away.

“…Follow me, Rai.”

[Rai, you are not good at judging people, but don’t think this girl hates you.]

Don’t speak Asteria; she’s testing me, right? I know, and it’s fine.

[Mmmm… I don’t want to see you cry again.]

…

Asteria’s words made me feel strange because he doesn’t remember crying after meeting Eternia, but that would also mean that Asteria somehow knew him in the past…

No, stop thinking about that. Now, both Lumia and Flora are important. The reason they look so similar but are completely different races. They have different names; one is the daughter of a duke, and the other is the princess…

It smelt like those complicated and dirty old dramas with the king’s wife who gave birth to his brother’s child due to being left alone for too long and becoming lonely.

-> Lumia Invited you to a party

Without thinking, I swiped the accepted choice on the screen as we stepped into the portal together.

It doesn’t help that one is an elf, the other is a halfling… The size difference does it matter?

I watched as Lumia dressed in a black leather outfit, cape and mask, seeming to be less of an archer and more like a bandit or assassin as we approached the portal to the 11th floor.

-> Lumia Invited you to a party

Without thinking, I swiped the accepted choice on the screen as we stepped into the portal together.

The horrible blue vortex with terrible twists and turns lasted longer than the first 10 floors before we were tossed into a dark, dreary cave that smelt like damp, musky ammonia. She didn’t attack me and instead sat on a pile of broken stones with her legs crossed while only her dazzling blue eyes shone in the dark.

That’s false because I could even see her cleavage with my eyesight.

“Please sit down, Rai.”

Shrugging my shoulder, I sit beside her, noticing her taking a deep breath and trembling before Lumina relaxed, letting out a low sigh and, “Why to sit beside me… idiot.” a cute whisper showing her normal self.

“My sister…” She leaned back, and I noticed that the cave had a hole in the ceiling.

A beautiful silver moon illuminated her face as she looked at me with a beautiful and ethereal face. “Our mother was weak, unable to stand the lonely nights apart from her husband. As the king, Flora’s father chose to visit his halfling concubines rather than his human consort.”

I got the gist of what must have happened and wondered what she would ask me to do. Maybe to leave Flora and her and never show my face again, or to take her instead. Who knew?

She slowly seemed to be immersed in her memories. “Because of that fateful night, a palace party where the king’s youngest brother was visiting a known playboy who loved women of all races… A bard.” “Our mother ended up losing to the temptation, hoping nobody would find out…” Lumia kicked stones at her feet with a bitter look, her hand brushing against mine. “…And they wouldn’t. If not for me being conceived.”

[I wonder why she didn’t abort her then?]

I don’t think they have the same values concerning life in the modern world… They all die in the dungeon quite often, right?

[Yes… They lose 100-500 people a day]

My lips didn’t move, but I didn’t want her to tell this story and feel alone. So I grasped her cold, fragile hand, brushing her fingers with mine. She looked at me, slightly conflicted, before shaking her head and smiling as if to accept my gesture tightly, gripping my fingers and entwining them with hers.

“What happened?” I asked, somehow wanting to know more about their past and lives. Since I had taken the step, my mother would never forgive me if I abandoned them or became half-assed.

[Even if it means you will be hurt or have to fight?]

Somehow… I am growing to love chaos… and fighting makes my heart feel like it grew wings.

[(…Already that far…? You cannot be saved… cute little Rai. Let big sister protect you as long as she remains a divine.)]

“Haha… By the time she discovered the pregnancy, the king had held her twice, so she initially believed it was his.” Her eyes looked misty, “However, disaster came when they discovered I didn’t share a single skill or talent in common with my father… But.”

“You shared many with the Duke?”

Her soft hand squeezed my mind, her fingers slightly trembling as she picked at my sharp nails with hers. “Mmm… My father is a half-elf and carries the mixed blood of elven and halfling royalty.”

It feels that Lumina would have been killed if it was our world or treated as a bargaining chip for the kingdom. I wonder why she didn’t.

“Our foolish mother…” “She tricked the king once more.”

Lumina’s voice became deeper and more emotional as silent tears dripped down her cheeks without whimpers. I was holding back my desire to wipe them. I desired to know the reason why she made those tears.

“To keep me safe from royal plots and nobles getting the wrong idea. She made a soul pact with the king… Making him swear that nobody in the kingdom would hurt me or use me as a tool. I would be brought up as the Duke’s daughter and live a happy life…”

“Haha… to achieve this, she even contacted my uncle’s sister, the queen of the elves, who was also surprised to have another relative.”

“She always doted on my uncle, so I was saved.”

Her words seemed positive, but there was something dark, a hidden secret that caused her face to look filled with so much despair and anger.

“But the King… He was smart, crafty… and used the pact to punish our mother… To banish her to become a dungeon explorer… Forbidding her from making a party… and on the 46th floor, she vanished.”

Lumina looked at me before showing a weak smile. My hands finally wiped her tears.

I thought she would accost and curse me, but when my hands wiped the salty streams away, her body finally began to whimper and shudder.

Tossing herself into my embrace, she began to cry… broken were her words, but the message I understood clearly…

“Don’t abandon us, please don’t choose between us and split us apart.” and “I love my sister, don’t let her suffer.”

[Do not worry; the next sister you meet will never accept you as you are.]

[The person to doubt, correct and rebuke you will appear, Rai.]

The words of Asteria were sent to the back of my head as I gently rocked the body of Lumina, who clung to my chest desperately like a child falling into a swimming pool.

I decided to treat the pair with a more serious and honest heart in the future. Like I would Aki or my mother. Until I repaid their kindness, affection and help.
