Chapter 1133 – Afterword ─ Pandora and Venus ~ Little Things From Childhood
“Yes, yes… That’s right, our Pandora. Just stay still.”
Venus was holding Pandora preciously with both hands and breastfeeding her.
“Oh my!!”
On Venus’ thigh was ‘Minos’, who was moving his small body vigorously.
“Oh, really… Minos!!”
As soon as Hedone, who was wearing only a shower gown, saw Minos like that, she rushed over and hugged him with both hands.
“Didn’t Mom say you shouldn’t disturb Abama when she’s working?”
“Oh my!! I’m done!”
Minos stretched out his small hand and tried to touch Venus’ breast.
“Haha! It seems like you were jealous of your cute little sister getting breast milk. Let her do it.”
“But the lungs…”
Minos jumped out of Hedone’s arms with great force and clung to Venus’ breasts. Minos, a member of the royal family, was very powerful, as if it was only natural.
“Even if a snake were to sneak into Minos’ bed, I would probably strangle him to death.”
“Isn’t it a good thing that the baby is healthy and strong?”
Hedone raised the corners of his mouth and smiled softly as Venus held Minos and Pandora with both hands and nursed them.
“But your foolish majesty, why did Emperor Jupiter…”
Hedone’s voice was cautious.
“Yes… It happened again.”
Venus understood his thoughts and feelings and nodded his head, sending a small look to Minos who was playing with his chest. Minos burst out laughing, saying that he liked that too.
“I guess Abama thought she couldn’t handle it.”
“… You enjoyed being pregnant, right? It’s a great blessing for you to be born as a man and have a child.”
“Aren’t pregnancy and childcare two different stories?”
Venus gently rubbed Minos’ back with her thumb.
“Hedonedo will check the letter Abamama left later. There is no way you don’t know what she is feeling.”
“But… I don’t think leaving Pandora behind like this is unforgivable.”
“I’m thinking that too…”
Venus showed a bitter expression.
“Don’t Abama have ‘eyes’ that can see more than anyone else?”
“Our foolish Majesty has proven well how meaningless those eyes are.”
“… But Abama couldn’t turn her eyes away.”
“No way…”
Hedone looked at Pandora with worried eyes.
“I think he gave up because he knew what the consequences would be if he raised Pandora and what fate Pandora would be caught in.”
“No matter what…”
“Abama-mama must have thought that it would be a better future for us to raise her children since she would once again do something unspeakable to her children…”
At Minos’ little bewilderment, Venus stopped him and patted her daughter’s buttocks for a moment, accepting the joke.
“… It’s hard to say what’s right.”
Hedone, who had harshly criticized Jupiter, sighed.
“Haha, do you suddenly understand Abama?”
“… What if I had the power to predict the future… And there was a fatal problem with my education…”
Hedone looked at Minos for a moment.
“If Minos says she will become an unspeakably prodigal child… And if she asks Arisa to educate her, so she can become an ordinary young lady, she will choose the former or the latter.”
“Running away like Abamama would be another story, but isn’t that what a parent’s heart is like?”
Venus turned her head and looked at Pandora, who was sucking her milk vigorously.
“The dice have already been rolled. I will work hard to help Pandora raise her children.”
“… Isn’t Akasha’s job quite difficult?”
Venus’ face was full of worry as she carefully turned her head and spoke.
“Don’t worry, the baby that our foolish Majesty and Empress Dowager created is growing well.”
Haha, but doesn’t that mean we suddenly have three children?”
“Mr. Ceres and the Royal Mistress work hard for me, but shouldn’t I be good at raising my children so that I don’t feel ashamed of being called Empress?”
Hedone smiled pretty, and as soon as she saw Pandora wriggling her little hand, she gently took it and touched it.
Pandora let out a cute laugh as if responding to the warmth of her Hedone.
“But you fool, Your Majesty. I wonder if Pandora is…”
“It was a different body from Minos.”
“Akasha has the same body as Minos…”
One day, the day will come when we will have a slightly different education. Hedone smiled and looked at Minos, who burst out laughing cutely as she thought about that.
“Run…!”
“Huh?”
In that short period of time, Pandora laughed and spit out Venus’ nipple from her mouth. At that moment, a short spurt of pure white milk stained Pandora’s face, and even this was fun and enjoyable for Pandora, so she moved her hand up and down.
“… Wasn’t there something like this even during the Minos era?”
Hedone was embarrassed and took out his handkerchief and wiped Pandora’s face and Venus’ chest.
“Ha, ha… Isn’t that inevitable?”
Venus swallowed hard. More than anyone else, Venus knew better than anyone else what the ‘baby’ in her arms was.
“Isn’t he a child born between a god and a god?”
* * *
“Seeing all this gathered together…”
“Why does he feel objectively about the sins he committed?”
“Isn’t there something to be said about it being a sin?!”
Venus, who spoke with a slight blush on her face, belatedly covered her mouth with her hand.
Today was a special time that Venus had once a year, even if it was a bit excessive.
“I think it’s a sin in a way~”
Starting with Arisa, who bursts out in laughter, the Queen of Galagon, Hyli, the Queen of Gregorio, Hestia, the elf Uriel, and even Elaine, the women whom the Emperor of the Empire Where the Sun Never Set loved and impregnated were gathered together as much as possible to create a small story. Venus had been maintaining a place where people talked, laughed, and chatted for several years.
It was now a normal small event and party, but Venus couldn’t help but smile warmly every time she had this fun gathering.
“There are more children who have received my blood than I thought…”
“Isn’t there more than 10 people?”
Venus nodded his head. He even had two daughters like Hailey.
“Still, I think it’s fortunate that everyone gets along well.”
“Venus had good energy. They all get along like sisters because they are about one or two years older than each other, right? I like the look.”
“I think it’s very fortunate that Minos didn’t have an accident either.”
Hedone smiled her eyes and looked at Minos, who was drawing in the corner of the large room with several children.
“… Whose doll is that? It’s gorgeous?”
“I believe it is a doll brought by Lambda.”
“Hey, Lambda? Queen Hestia managed to buy it for me. I thought she would give me a sword.”
“Is there any parent who can beat their child, haha!”
Arisa smiled softly at Venus’ joke and pointed to the children reading a book with his finger.
“Look at Akasha and Circe. They read books very quietly.”
Hedone smiled and nodded her head. It was a good thing that Arisa’s child, Circe, and Agrippa’s daughter, Akasha, were on good terms.
“Oh my…”
Venus, who was watching the children playing warmly, stood up.
“Huh? Venus? Why all of a sudden? Where are you going?”
Rather than answering Arisa’s question, Venus quickly moved her feet.
In the center of the playroom, which was larger than expected, there were two small children fighting, which did not match the peaceful atmosphere.
“I…! I said something wrong…! No!”
The child purred with a shrill voice, his hair was light blue, and he had wings and a tail. Eve Terra’s daughter, Gremory, was riding on top of Pandora’s body and swinging her tail dangerously.
“I feel…! Not bad…!”
“Bad!”
“You’re worse!”
It was a sudden physical fight between five-year-old children, but no one was willing to stop them. Of course, there was a nanny or maid in the room to look after the children, but everyone was hesitant.
It was natural. Because these children, who inherited the blood of the royal family, were not harmless beings.
“Why…! You only do this to me!”
Pandora grabbed her Gremory, which was sitting on her own body, with both her hands and lifted it up. Pandora even threw her Gremory, who was one year older than her, towards the ground.
“Pandora…!! Didn’t I tell you that you shouldn’t use her power violently!”
Venus, who was watching the situation, lightly caught Gremory’s body with one hand before it fell to the ground and made her stand up.
“Abamaaaaa!!”
Gremory immediately clung to Venus, her tail wagging? However, Venus pressed Gremory’s forehead with her index finger, causing it to fall slightly.
“Oh my god… Did we fight again? Last time, Garnet treated Circe badly.”
“Minos once stripped her of her clothes…”
Arisa and Hedone got up from their seats, sighed, and approached Venus’ side.
“Pandora, Gremory. Why did you punch each other?”
Venus knelt down, gently holding the hands of the two children, and asked a question while making eye contact.
“… Gremory-nee… Said she felt bad for me.”
“I didn’t say it felt bad! I said it was strange!”
“… It’s the same thing!”
“It’s strange!”
Venus sighed at the sight of the two growling.
“Why did you say it was strange?”
“… Pandora is a woman, and she has a penis.”
“It’s not strange!”
Pandora screamed as her face turned red. Venus looked at that and bit her lip for a moment. It was a situation that strangely reminded me of the pain of my childhood.
There was no one who could calmly inform young Venus of this ‘difference’. Although Ceres existed, Ceres was not Venus’ nurse from the beginning. Before Vesta taught her how to read, Venus had many ‘nannies’.
There was no such tragedy for Venus’ beloved children, but as expected, even the slightest difference seemed strange at a young age.
“No. That’s strange! Mom said that! She said she had a penis, not a penis.”
“I have one too!”
“There should be no cock!”
Gremory laughed, flicking her tail. It seemed like she was bragging about a story she learned from her mother, Eve Terra.
“Enough, Gremory. Isn’t Pandora your younger sister? Being her older sister, she shouldn’t be teasing you like that.”
“… Hmph.”
“And Pandora’s body is not strange, but natural, so she will ask her mother later.”
Gremory and Pandora looked up at Venus at the same time.
“Isn’t it strange?”
“Yes, Pandora is blessed with a body just like this Abamama, only that she has a penis even though she is a woman.”
Pandora blinked her eyes and smiled a little. The words ‘same’ as her favorite Abamama were very powerful words for the child.
“Really?”
“Yes, Gremory. Eve’s mother told me about it. Venus Abama has a wonderful penis on her body.”
Arisa watched quietly and said something. Arisa was famous among her children as a ‘smart mother’.
“That can’t be…”
Gremory looked like she didn’t want to admit it. As soon as Arisa saw that, she looked at Venus for a moment and then cleared her throat.
“It’s for education, Venus.”
Arisa snapped her fingers and took off her dress, showing Gremory her genitals clearly. Unlike Hedoné, she was neatly removing her hair, so her soft, bare skin was clearly visible.
“Now, Gremory. Arisa’s mother has a truly… Precious place here, right? That’s because Arisa’s mother is a woman.”
Gremory nodded her head.
“And, voila. Venus Abama’s body has a spine just like Pandora’s.”
Arisa smiled and lifted Venus’ dress to show that her erect member was properly attached to her crotch.
“… Wow… What is it?”
Gremory didn’t say anything that was disgusting or that she looked strange, but covered her face with both hands.
“Am I wrong?”
“It seems Gremory was wrong this time.”
Venus quickly lowered her dress so that it could not be seen underneath and held Gremory and Pandora’s hands.
“But…”
“Gremory. Everyone makes mistakes. However, if you don’t admit it when you make a mistake and run away, you will end up in big trouble.”
Gremory lowered one of her hands to cover her face and sniffed her nose.
“Now, tell Pandora you’re sorry for saying bad things to her.”
“My wife…”
Pandora quietly looked at Gremory, then squeezed Gremory’s hand and held it.
“Ganchana Gremory-nee.”
Contrary to Venus’ worries, Gremory and Pandora reconciled cutely, holding and touching each other’s hands.
“You both did well. Come on, Gremory and Pandora. Shall we hold Hedone’s mom’s hand and go get a snack?”
Hedone stroked their heads, then lifted them up by their waists and, with a wink at Venus, walked out of her playroom.
“Haa… I heard that as kids get older, their strength gets stronger, and it’s scary.”
Arisa wiped the sweat off the back of her hand and looked at Venus.
“I’m glad our Emperor doesn’t have anything to worry about, isn’t he?”
“I’m really glad we got through this without a big fight.”
Venus, who climbed the small mountain of raising children, could barely smile.
