I felt a little tired from the events of the past few weeks. From the mont I got the system, it felt like sobody above had stepped on the acceleration pedal for my life and cut the break and handbrake cables while leaving a heavy boulder to stop it from slowing down...
There was a sense of fatigue, more ntal than physical, although I felt enriched every day with new people and places and being able to hone my fighting skills.
But... Sotis, I missed the small dream of going back to study and being with other students like an idiot before it was too late.
I had made a few appointnts with the best-rated gyms in the area for learning more fighting styles as weapons just never felt right...
Is it my insistence on using what I knew best?
Because I couldn't forget that the world would eventually have monsters, and so of them include those dangerous guys that even the gods couldn't beat easily...
So, can this world remain peaceful for much longer? Is it fine for to study in that ti instead of getting stronger...
I don't know the answer, and I feel that maybe I don't have the right to waste ti.
"Whatever, let's go et my sister. She seems to be waiting for on the tenth floor."
Sitting in the soft black chair in my living room with the lights off, my eyes closed, embracing the cool silence and absence of others.
"Is this what the world would be like with nobody else living?"
{I haven't seen you in a few days, and you've beco so strange. Rai, is everything alright? Do you need a kiss from Mommy?}
"Honesty... that might be great—you all disappeared so suddenly, and from speaking in my head constantly, now I am lucky to hear one of you speak in the day..."
{Sorry... when we are in a living form, it's a little harder to speak with you...}
The small wolf form sat on my shoulder, nuzzling my face as if to cheer up. Yet I worried that one day they might be gone without a world...
All of them vanished from my sight, and I would be back to being alone.
{Silly boy... We could never leave you.}
"Ah, so you say, but nothing is forever, right?"
With that, I gently patted her soft, furry head and entered the eternal dungeon with a heavy heart.
Even Anastasia is absent often these days, sotis to help Haruka and Elizabeth, but she sotis just vanishes, and I know... sohow where she is going.
In all honesty, there was a hunch a lot of small things that were adding up in my head, but I didn't want to admit or guess and be wrong.
***
The sa blue and purple lights enveloped my body, followed by the nausea and flashing lights from the tenth-floor eting area.
I could see two girls sitting opposite each other... One I knew as the flat version of Eternia, but the other girl... She looked like Aki and Eternia mashed together...
So, my thoughts were correct... Aki and maybe many of the won around are related to the sisters of Eternia...
Right, Lupera? Or is it Cassandra now?
{!!!}
There was a fear in my heart that the woman I loved... and wanted to be with would suddenly be absorbed by the sisters, and it made avoid sleeping...
I slept with them until they feinted and would sneak out of the apartnt and run... for hours, all to avoid these feelings.
Is Aki my Aki, or did that goddess take her from ?
Can I accept that? Would I kill the goddess because she took Aki away?
{Rai, please forgive ... it's not that we wanted to hide—}
"Don't."
"I'll hear everything from Eternia and that woman beside her."
Don't worry, Lupera, I won't jump to a hysteric reaction and swear to get revenge or hate you all. If things were so sinister, then Haruka and Elizabeth would have changed, too, but they are the sa idiots.
Slowly accepting my fate and worried about the future, I could see the blue hair of Celestia shining from the window and another beautiful woman beside her...
Her beauty was beyond all the won I had ever seen... her lips gave a gentle smile, mouthing. Do your best, Rai. Putting up her thumbs with a familiar stupid smile made feel relaxed before they closed to curtains...
I don't know why, but that woman and Celestia's smile and reassurance ward my cold heart, filled with fear and the desire to run away.
Especially the blonde beauty...
{That is Aphrodite... one of our older sisters. She only returned about a week ago...}
Around the ti I slept with Anastasia, then...No... I don't want to think of that now. This ti is for Aki and Eternia.
I walked to the tables, ordered myself an iced latte and so light snacks and chose to sit opposite the two won without speaking, first taking a sip of my coffee as they looked at with slightly worried eyes.
"Hello, Rai. How are you?"
Eternia spoke first; her voice sounded sad and guilty, which annoyed .
"Hello, Eternia, hey, Aki."
It was a test; I greeted the other goddess, who was the spitting image of Eternia, with the na of Aki, to test them and see if my hunch was right. The mont I did, my stomach sank, making feel nervous as she looked at with shocked, shimring eyes.
"How did you...?"
Her voice trembled, and Eternia shook her head, patting Aki's hand to calm her down as she looked at with serious eyes.
"Rai... listen... I'm sorry we didn't tell you sooner. I wanted to give you more ti to adjust and understand everything, but it seems you found out early."
"Don't worry about it. Many strange things happened, and I started to notice a few strange things happening with the others, too."
Eternia seed worried; her beautiful, pale face was filled with guilt as Aki looked upset, but I cald down.
"Listen, I don't hate you two. Although it annoys that you kept this secret from , I can understand why you did... But please answer my questions honestly, or I will leave, and we can talk another ti."
"Are you the Aki I love with all my heart, or are you so goddess that has taken her body? Because no matter how much love you give . If you aren't my Aki, I will probably be the one to kill you one day."
Surprisingly, my words were neither hateful nor sour but gentle and honest. I didn't stutter or stop in between and said my honest feelings while looking at her in the eyes. I held a conviction this wasn't needed, and she was my Aki, but... I had to be sure.
Seeing my honest gaze, Aki seed shocked for a mont but burst into tears as she stood up, ran towards and sat on my lap, hugging tightly as Eternia sighed.
"I'm sorry, brother... I'm Aki. I'm your Aki; I promise on the candy ring I stole and blad you for!"
Those words broke .
It was sothing insignificant for others, but to Aki and , it was the first month we had t each other while shopping—Mother passed by a display for candy wedding rings with fruit-flavoured gems, and it was so embarrassing, but Aki had taken one from the shelf and not told mother... it was expensive, a premium sweet due to the stickers and toy that ca with it and the alarms beeped...
Ah... so embarrassing, that was the first and only ti that my mother spanked my ass... and this cheeky girl ca to just like now after my ass was bright red, crying her eyes out and calling brother for the first ti...
I made her promise not to do so again, and from that day, I started a paper round... so I could buy those sweets for Aki once a week with half the money I earned.
Haha... Mother realised the truth shortly after, and we were both spanked again before being treated to take-out pizza for the first ti.
To , it was a dear mory... and it was enough.
My eyes grew hot, and tears stread down my cheeks as I hugged her tightly—my arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her close as I kissed her lips gently, tasting the salty tears in our mouths.
My Aki was here... and Eternia, too.
After calming down, Aki wiped the tears from my cheeks as she smiled gently, caressing my cheeks as I hugged her waist, refusing to let go.
"Rai... I'm sorry... I wanted to tell you, but Celestia said it was better for you to find out yourself than forcefully tell you. After all... you needed to grow and mature more before finding out... otherwise, you might have lost yourself."
"It's fine, Aki. I don't bla anyone. Celestia seems to understand humans better than I do... No, she understands better than I do. So I believe her choice was the best for ."
Aki seed relieved hearing my words as Eternia chuckled softly; her gentle smile was beautiful as she sighed, shaking her head.
"Your other na is Eternium, right?" I whispered in her ear, feeling Aki nod against my neck as she hugged tightly, afraid I would disappear.
"Yes... but please don't call that outside... I want to remain Aki in that world forever..."
" too, Aki. I'm sorry I couldn't buy you those sweets more often."
"Hehe, brother, don't worry; I got lots of cream from you in return."
I couldn't help but frown at her teasing and pinch her plump butt as she yelped, glaring at cutely as she pouted.
"You pervert, Rai... you've beco bolder, pinching my ass like that."
"Of course, I miss you so much... but you were the one dying for to pinch your ass, don't be pretending to be a high-strung goddess when you love to masturbate over your brother."
"Pervert~ Brother is a dirty pervert~ hehe, Rai, do you still rember the ga we played? Where we hid in the closet and watched Mother undress and then touched each oth—~"
Aki giggled innocently, teasing as Eternia coughed, interrupting us.
"You two should wait to play your gas later; we have important things to discuss right now."
