Chapter 87
What happens in Chapter 87 of "The Dark Rebirth of Pandora: Revenge of the Abyss"? Iâve been in my "room" for hours now, but I can hardly call it a... Read on to find out!
Iâve been in my "room" for hours now, but I can hardly call it a room, even though itâs beautifully organized and inviting. There are no windows, the door is made of an extremely durable mineral, and the entire room is layered with various types of magic.
In other words, itâs extremely difficult to forcefully escape, itâs basically just a fancy prison. But since I have an extremely high affinity for magic, I can easily notice the complex magical system throughout the room.
Iâve spent the last few hours analyzing all possible patterns, and I think I can "steal" this magical formula. Itâs quite complex, but my current self can do it without any problems.
It wasnât easy to figure this out, but I did it anyway. Iâm now trying to replicate a miniature version of it in my hand, and various magical circles are forming all at once.
âBarrier, magical reinforcement, alarm, tracker, paralysis, illusions, poisonâ Seeing these effects only proves that this is just a fancy prison, after all, all these effects are meant to hinder a possible escape.
Not that there would be anywhere to run, weâre in the middle of the ocean, getting out of here would only lead you to a hostile ocean with dense, heavy pressure while also exposing your position to the goddess.
Soon, someone knocks on the door.
"Demon King, Delphina-sama wishes to see you." Soon I go to the door as the maid opens it, and I see Thalor and Calypso together.
I follow the maid through the beautiful corridors, looking at Calypso and Thalor. Thalor has the same calm, analytical expression as always, while Calypso seems nervous about the situation.
After all, weâre practically "prisoners", and the only thing separating us from prisoners is the term "guests", which isnât even correct since I was threatened to come here.
Soon we arrive at a large gate that appears to be made of some type of light blue prism, with sea green patterns reminiscent of a large sea serpent.
The gate opens.
The first thing I notice is the goddess. Sheâs different from what I imagined a girl who seems to be around 137 centimeters tall, albino with a pale skin, though less pale than mine. She has red eyes, and her long hair is white.
I see a white shark-like tail, indicating her albinism. Her expression is cold and slightly indifferent. I notice her teeth seem as sharp as a sharkâs.
Her clothing is a mixture of Egyptian attire, but without much revealing, in a white color with gold accessories, covering her underdeveloped body perfectly.
"Kneel," she orders. Her tone is cute and childlike, but at the same time, serious and dominant. I see Calypso and Thalor kneeling, and I do the same since I have no idea what I should do.
When looking at the goddess, I donât feel anything, meaning her aura is so great that itâs impossible to perceive. If I had to judge, my aura would be like a hill, Mikaelâs aura a mountain, and the goddessâs aura would be equivalent to the moon.
I guess I should be glad I canât feel it, if I could, I would probably be crushed by the oppressive aura she would emanate.
Soon, everything falls silent for a while, as if theyâre waiting for something.
âIs it me?â I think theyâre waiting for me to start the conversation.
"Hello, Delphina Oceane, I am Pandora Aegis Oblivion. We wanted to make contact with you to do business together," I think this is a good enough size, thereâs no need to beat around the bush with flattery, since Thalor and Calypso have already talked to her before, so the goddess knows exactly why weâre here.
"My servant said you requested my presence, and Iâm immensely grateful for the invitation. As a sign of my gratitude, I brought you a gift." I stand up and hand her a relic. I have no idea what this relic does, but Elena gave it to me, so it might be something good.
"..." The surrounding sirens seem surprised.
âI messed up...â I think I wasnât supposed to stand up... or maybe I wasnât supposed to approach her, but she accepted it, so I guess itâs okay. She looks at it for a while and then tosses it to one of her servants.
Itâs a bit disrespectful, but oh well.
âWait... didnât I do something similar when I gave the prize I won to the princess?â
"Letâs cut the formalities. Tell me why we should accept something from you demons?" She speaks, and this makes me think she looks cute sitting on the throne.
"Because... itâs a great business opportunity. Demons are excellent at using magic, and Iâm sure they could prove to be valuable allies," Demons are one of the races with the best magical powers.
"... I donât see how demons would be useful to me. Sirens can use magic quite satisfactorily; we donât need demons."
â...â Seeing her, I know I wonât get a private meeting.
"Do I have permission to use mana?" I ask, I donât want to be attacked out of the blue. She gives a slight nod of her head, her disinterest evident.
I use mana to prevent sound, while I converse with her using the sound isolation to speak my trump card.
"If you accept the contract... youâll have a goddess as an ally." As soon as I say this, I notice a momentary gleam of interest in her gaze.
"Explain."
"I have officially become a goddess, being recognized by the Primordial Goddess. If you accept the âallianceâ, you wonât just have the support of the demons, but also the support of a goddess."
"You? A goddess?" She questions for a moment.
"Swear by your life in the name of your goddess," She says.
"I swear by my life and by my mother, the goddess of the abyss, Echidna Tiamat, that I am a goddess and have received this title with the permission of the Primordial Goddess."
I think she was expecting me to die or be punished. I discovered a few days ago that using the name of oneâs divinity in promises is very impactful and has severe consequences, which is precisely why using the names of the goddesses has become something special.
"... I see... you can stop hiding this conversation," she orders, and I obey.
"Prepare my bath... she will participate with me," The goddess points at me while giving orders, and soon all the maids obey as Iâm left surprised.
"M-More is this okay?" I murmur. The goddess then starts walking.
âI know sheâs like billions of years old, but is this really how itâs supposed to be?â Her indifference to this is absurd.
Soon, we walk, and Thalor and Calypso were dismissed. I follow the goddess, and we soon arrive at a large bathroom with a "bathtub" so big it looks like a pool.
We both enter, but I see that no maid has entered. The goddess and I are alone.
"Donât your servants help you?" I ask.
"I wonât let mortal hands touch or see my sacred body," She says with a cold, indifferent tone, as if itâs obvious.
In a way, it reminds me of myself again. I also donât let maids touch me or see me during my baths, I usually bathe alone.
But the reason is more out of embarrassment.
âIt seems she has already accepted me as a goddess.â I doubt she sees me as an equal, but at least her view of me has improved.
Soon she speaks.
"Give me a bath," She commands in a tone as if I were her servant.
"Yes?"
"Why?" I ask.
"Unlike those mortals, you are at least worthy of washing my body," Hearing this arrogant speech irritates me, sheâs demeaning me too much.
"..." I obey anyway, as I know disobeying now will be bad. I start undressing her, while my tail feels the cold, white tiles.
Soon, I remove the central part, and what I see surprises me.
"T-Two... penises?" I stare in surprise at the two cute, childlike penises that donât match her at all as a girl.
"Is there a problem?" She speaks, making me stop observing her.
"Ah, n-no, itâs just that... I thought..."
âShe also has a pussy below the twin penises... so she would be a futanari? And the first time Iâve seen one...â I notice her little pussy due to the angle, itâs right below her small balls.
"G-Goddess, why do you have... well, you know..." Itâs kind of awkward to talk about this, itâs the first time Iâve seen something like this.
"What? That? What does it matter, theyâre just two pieces of meat," she speaks with a strange indifference.
Soon, I put the pieces together like a puzzle.
"Goddess, could you tell me why your race only has girls?" This seems to be related to why she appears so indifferent to bathing with me.
"Because there are only girls, isnât it obvious?"
âHOLY SHIT, SHEâS SUPER INNOCENT...â Unexpected, super unexpected. I have to ask more, itâs impossible that someone as old as her has the same level of sexual knowledge as a child.
"Goddess, how do mortals reproduce?"
"What are you talking about? Of course they come into being through magic, donât you even know something so simple?" She says with a slightly irritated expression, as if I were a child who didnât know the obvious.
"Goddess, tell me... you just stole the race creation project and didnât even check, didnât you?" It was the Primordial Goddess who made the project for creating life, other goddesses just stole the project and used it.
"... Yes, whatâs the problem? Stop questioning and just give me a bath,"
Now it all makes sense. She simply followed the trend of the other goddesses and didnât even check what the hell she was doing. I bet this goddess is a complete Hikikomori who has never left this place.
"Goddess, tell me, have you ever... well, seen how reproduction works or anything like that?" I canât believe Iâm having this strange conversation in the bathroom, while I talk, I start moving her to a shower with soap next to it.
"Never, but what does it matter? It makes no difference,"
She seems to have no understanding of sexuality, which is why she doesnât mind being naked in front of someone else, like a small child. Itâs unbelievable that no one has ever taught this tyrant anything.
"Goddess, has no one ever told you about your penises or anything like that?" What does she think those two penises of hers are for?
"No, my servants just obey silently and are punished if they make mistakes," I saw some maids moving a corpse, so I think I know why they call her a tyrant.
I start lathering her little body, I canât stop looking at the penises, theyâre so different from what Iâm used to. I didnât even know futanaris were real, and I notice that her penises still have their foreskin intact.
And strangely cute, I never thought Iâd find a penis cute in my life.
âHas she never had an erection before? I doubt sheâs even used them.â As a goddess, I doubt she even has physiological needs, so I doubt sheâs ever used her penis before.
Her lack of knowledge about this is quite unique, given her age. I guess this is what happens when youâre a Hikikomori who never leaves home and never communicates with anyone.
âNow itâs explained why all sirens are female.â She didnât even try to do anything serious, imagine if the sirens find out that in their race there are only women because their goddess didnât care to look at what she was doing.
"Goddess, has anyone ever touched your body before?"
"Never"
"..." This gives me a good idea. I know very well how addictive pleasure can be, and after being reborn, I found it wonderful.
So if I show this innocent goddess the pleasure, maybe sheâll decide to be my ally.
"Goddess, do you know what sex is?"
"No, could you stop talking, itâs annoying, just finish this quickly," I finish rinsing the soap and take her to the "bathtub." I sit in the water after taking off my clothes and place her on my lap.
She doesnât seem to mind, showing her lack of knowledge and innocence as a living being.
