Chapter 67 – 67. Octopoda Octopus’s Dream (3)
– One –
Slurp.
The two take another sip of tea.
Among their in-kind assets, it was tea brewed with high-quality tea leaves, the only asset they brought without disposal.
The tea was known to have a great effect on maintaining concentration.
Of course, the price was that high, and it was a tea leaf that the average middle class could not afford to buy.
“Hmm. I think I know a little bit now.”
“Yes? What do you mean, brother?”
“The decisive cause of disagreement with Demosi on this subject.”
“Is that so? From my brother’s point of view, what do you think is the cause?”
“Demosi seems to have assumed that the Goddess and the system she created were flawless and omnipotent, and that the resources the Goddess could invest were infinite.”
Demosi’s eyes widen.
“Ah! Certainly, I was thinking that subconsciously.”
“Let’s reverse omnipotence, perfect integrity, and infinite resources. Partial omnipotence, partial omnipotence, incompleteness, and limited resources. In this situation, rather, selecting the narrowest scope for judging infidelity may be the most efficient method for the goddess. Wouldn’t you?”
“I see. I agree with my brother’s opinion. If the Goddess had specified adultery in the narrowest scope for that reason, then the wording in Article 8 would make sense.”
When Demosi agrees with Octopoda, he tries to organize the discussion and draw conclusions.
“Thus, even assuming the tentacle is a body part, it is not a penis, so if I insert it into another woman’s penis, I will not be punished for adultery.”
“Conversely, even if I wrapped my tentacles around another man’s genitals and stroked them, I wouldn’t be punished for having an affair.”
“Uh, uh…”
Octopoda is not quick to agree.
His eyes tremble relentlessly.
“That, yes, yes, yes, all.”
Although he struggled to agree, he was expressing with his whole body that something was not clear.
Demosi immediately realized why he was having a hard time and smiled mischievously.
“Foda, did you imagine me fondling another man?”
“Yes yes…”
“Ayu, you’re cute~♡”
Demosh lightly pinches Octopoda’s left cheek.
“Will my lovely brother Poda allow me to enjoy mutual fondling or pseudo-sexual acts with other men?”
“Oh no! Absolutely not!”
Octopoda jumped up from her seat.
His forehead is wet with cold sweat.
“Then there’s nothing to worry about. I don’t even want to be alone with a man outside of Poda’s permission, do I?”
Side!
Demosi affectionately hugs his tense body and kisses him loudly on the cheek.
Power drains from his body
“So, don’t worry about anything. We just enjoyed academic discussions and assumed certain circumstances, right?”
“Yes… I understand, my love, my mother-in-law.”
Come on!
The two shared a friendly kiss for a long time.
It was very difficult for their mouths, once heated, to separate from each other.
However, if we continued kissing like this, I had no confidence to endure without even having sex, so I had to force myself away.
Of course, it happened after a while.
– 2 –
“Ha, why doesn’t the night come like this?”
“It’s a great pity that the night comes so quickly that the day spent with Demosi quickly disappears, but it’s a great bliss to enjoy the contradiction of waiting for the fun of the night to come soon.”
“…”
Demosi looks silently into Octopoda’s eyes.
Her octopoda asks her, puzzled by her.
“Did I miss something, Demosi?”
“No. It was just because I was curious about how a sweet and romantic person like my older brother would remain single.”
Octopoda laughs softly.
“Because no one, no one has made my heart flutter as much as Demosi, nay, my sweet Mosi.”
“Ah…”
Demosi’s face turns pink.
“I believe I have been single to meet my lovely Moshi.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. It’s not speculation, it’s certainty. And the fact that my pretty Moshi is back single,”
“It’s probably to meet Poda.”
Poop.
After their lips collided, Demosi hurriedly pulled away from Octopoda.
“Haa. If you keep doing this, I think we’ll make love even in a moving carriage. We need to change the topic.”
“I completely agree.”
Desperately Demosi racks her brain to find her thesis.
“Ah, that’s right. Why did Goddess exclude sex between people of the same sex in Article 8? For example, men can make physical love by inserting their genitals into each other’s anus. You can share physical love through it. I still don’t understand why same-sex infidelity was not specified in Article 8.”
“…”
Octopoda is silent for a moment.
She wasn’t embarrassed to be silent because she heard an unexpected question.
That’s because it was reviewed.
However, the reason he remained silent was to choose the appropriate words.
“That… I think this is the part where a lot of controversy can arise and a lot of disagreements can arise. However, the fact that the Goddess is not perfect, and the fact that the history revision scholars of the Emperor Shi Huang’s era designated it as a forbidden book. If you refer to the history books, maybe you can find the answer.”
“Ah, by any chance forbidden books, do you mean a history book that records the fact that Goddess ascended to heaven without dating or marrying anyone? The one who is known to have whined about it.”
“That’s right. Assuming that the contents of that forbidden book are true, the goddess truly lived purely for the liberation of her species, and ascended to heaven without enjoying a single pleasure as a human.”
“Then, she may have been so naive that a goddess who has existed for over 5,000 years may not have known that homosexuality existed in the world, did you mean?”
“Yes, I’m assuming so.”
“Oh my god…”
It really was, oh my God.
“The reason why the extent of the affair is so local is the result of the circumstances of the adult and the naivety of her goddess…”
“That, it’s just an assumption, Demosi. Again, it’s impossible to be sure without asking the Goddess directly.”
“Haa, that’s right. Anyway, we’re going to make beautiful love between ourselves, but there will never be anything to verify the contents of all sexual acts with others.”
It was then.
Hee hee!
Rattle!
The carriage suddenly stopped.
It was because the horse, which had been running leisurely, stopped abruptly, startled by the figure suddenly appearing in front of the carriage.
“What, what’s going on?”
“I’ll go out.”
“I’ll go out with you too, brother.”
Click.
Octopoda and Demosi got out of the wagon.
Standing there was a woman with light brown skin, the hem of a long one-piece dress fluttering in the wind.
Her auburn hair was shiny and wavy in large curls, and she pulled her messy-looking hair into a high ponytail for a very lively look.
She opened her mouth, her beautiful turquoise eyes gleaming with curiosity.
“Hello, my name is Estrus, nice to meet you~♬”
The woman who stood in the way of the carriage and greeted him brightly was none other than Estrus.
“Smart unnie and oppa~ I know the answer~!”
As Estrus continued her words before she could reply to her greeting, she couldn’t quite figure out what answer to give.
“Yes, yes?”
Octopoda and Demosi panic.
“Even if girls put their fingers in each other’s pussies or fists, suck their pussies or bite their nipples, the goddess doesn’t consider that to be adultery~ I know all about these estruses~♬”
Octopoda and Demosi look at each other in amazement.
“Hey, are you a participant?”
“Yeah~! Unni and oppa are also participants~? I’m the 20th contestant~♬ Thanks to the Goddess, thanks to this ability, my ears and eyes have gotten so much better, and I can run fast in the forest~♬ So from far away I came here after hearing what the two of you were saying~”
“Oh, I see…”
Demosi is wary of Estrus with a slightly nervous expression.
The quick-witted Estrus immediately read the boundary between Octopoda and Demosi.
“Sorry, sorry~ I wasn’t following my sister and brother secretly, or I didn’t mean to steal from them~ I came out to hunt nearby, and I just overheard them~? I threw it away~♬”
After saying that, Estrus smiled brightly.
When Estrus took a step back, apologizing for his rudeness, they were able to relax a bit.
It was because Estrus was expressing with his whole body that he had no intention of attacking them.
“Um, but did my sister and brother also escape from Regal and come to the northern unexplored land like this?”
“Yes, yes?! How did you know that?”
Estrus tells the story of his escape from the window and the story he heard from the Cuelvos.
Her choice of words isn’t very polished, but it’s good enough to convey Regal’s machinations and the situation Regal created.
And when they heard the news that things far more cruel and terrifying than they had guessed were happening in reality, goosebumps suddenly ran over the skin of Octopoda and Demosi.
“That, did something like that happen…”
“The Duke of Regal is a much crazier person than we expected…”
Their predictions coincided with Estrus’ testimony to a large extent.
So while the two may not fully trust her estrus, they are able to soften her guard against her a lot.
“By the way, I have a question for you smart older sister and smart older brother~ Since I gave you good information that will help you survive, can you please answer me~?”
Demosi replied with a small smile.
It was a secret to Octopoda that he felt better when he heard Estrus call her older sister after hearing only the title of ajumma from younger women.
“Communication and exchange of knowledge are the best means for mutual development. Ask anything. You said you were Estrus, right? What are you curious about?”
“I heard that you and her brother can summon tentacles.”
“That’s right. Both of us can summon eight each.”
Woo woo woo!
Four long tentacles grow from both palms of Demosi.
Looking at them, Estrus swallows her saliva.
“Then, even if you stab my pussy and butthole with those wriggling things, can you really not get the goddess-sama’s adultery penalty~?”
“We presume yes. Excuse me, has Estrus ever used a masturbator or dildo for sexual pleasure?”
“Yeah! My hobby was group sex~♬ But since I became a participant, I couldn’t enjoy it with a group of people, so it’s too empty~? He said he couldn’t be satisfied because he was empty~♬”
Oktopoda clears her throat, somewhat embarrassed by her blatant remarks, and turns her gaze into the distance.
Demosi smiled in satisfaction at his outward manner of dealing with himself.
“I see. Well, if you’ve listened to our conversation, you understand that all sexual acts that use tools or parts of the body that are not genitalia, even if the subject of use is the opposite sex, are not considered sex between the opposite sex according to the regulations, right?”
“Right~!”
Even if the terminology and sentence structure were somewhat difficult, if the selected topic was related to sex, Estrus’ brain rotation and comprehension seemed to improve greatly.
Perhaps her knowledge of sex had the potential to far exceed the level of the great scholars of the Empire, so it might have been a natural result.
“Whether we interpret our tentacles as tools or body parts, they are definitely not genitals. So petting or penetration using tentacles is nothing more than pseudo-sex.”
“That’s right. We consider these tentacles a weapon or a tool. Therefore, whether I insert the tentacles into Estrus-sama’s genitals or anus, caress her whole body, or my wife does those things, it is not considered sexual intercourse. Not.”
However, the limits of Estrus came quickly.
Her eyes are trembling
It seemed difficult to understand all of them.
“Uh, so~ so~♬ dehehe☆ Simply put, even if my sister and brother raped me like this, like that, with their tentacles, the Goddess wouldn’t give them a penalty, right?”
“I guess so, but this is just a hypothesis we’ve made. It’s unclear whether the normal tool and the tentacle created through this ability are exactly the same. At worst, there’s a hidden provision in the rule book that could result in a sudden penalty. So, I think it’s better not to rush into it.”
Her Octopoda holds her back with her gentleness.
However, Estrus had a trump card.
“Really? Hehe~ Yes~ Wouldn’t it be fine to ask the goddess directly~?”
“Yes, yes!?”
Her remarks startle Octopoda and Demosi.
It was because only a saintess could do it.
“Smart older sister and smart older brother~ Won’t you be friends with me~?”
Before they can hide their astonishment, or even ask what it means to ask directly, Estrus suggests that they be friends first.
They came to remember that Estrus had a very esoteric and somewhat distracted mental world.
“One of the hobbies I’ve been having fun with lately is making new friends~♬ If unnie and oppa become my new friends, I’ll invite them to my house~♬ If you go there, you’ll find my friend and my cute self~ Go To celebrate becoming friends, let’s all eat and play together~♬”
“Ah, that’s a bit… No, a lot, very sudden…”
Demosi cautiously announces his refusal.
It’s because it’s a completely different story to talk to a person you’ve never met on the street for a while and to follow them to their place of residence.
“If I knew who my most recent friend was, I wouldn’t be able to follow him~?”
Seeing the elated appearance of Estrus, Demosi could not hold back her curiosity and asked a question.
“Who is that? Is it someone I know?”
“Yes! The name of the friend I made the most recently, and now lives with, is Ada~ Ada Steel Birgin~!”
“Eh…? Stand, no way?!”
“Huh, huh! That, that person…!”
The Octopodas catch their breath in astonishment.
As their mouths hang open and they cannot speak, Estrus’s smile deepens.
“How about it? In order to clear up your sister and brother’s curiosity~ it would be better to meet them once~?”
“Isn’t that a saint?!”
Estrus shakes her head.
“Former saintess, former saintess~ Right now, it’s just my friend Ada unnie~♬”
“That, that, the saintess who was said to have suddenly disappeared during confinement, why is she with Estrus-sama…?”
Estrus solidifies her impression.
It wasn’t something to laugh about, and it wasn’t a very good memory.
Estrus was a woman whose inner thoughts and facial expressions always matched.
“Ada’s sister Ya was kidnapped by the Regal’s privates and she was about to face a bad fate, she saved me and my self ~ she and then she became friends together ~!”
“Such… That’s what happened…”
Ada smiles again and she extends her hand to them.
“Yeah! We’re not bad people~♬ Unnie and Oppa don’t seem to be bad people either, so I suggested it, so I hope they go together~♬ How about it, do you want to go together~?”
Octopoda and Demosi exchange glances.
They were sure that as long as the saintess was with Estrus, her place would be safer than she thought.
And Estrus judged that, unlike her frivolous way of speaking or demeanor, she was a better person than she seemed.
Also, because she had the confidence to let go of her body under any circumstances, the couple decided to accompany Estrus.
“I will, Master Estrus.”
“Okay~! Then follow me in the carriage~ I’ll be faster than the carriage~♬”
So the three of them ran toward the cabin where the Honeywet couple lived while watching the sunset to their left.
Of course, in front of the running carriage, Estrus jumped on both feet to lead them.
It was a rather bizarre sight to observe.
