"What a mischievous child, daring to enchant your mother like this. You deserve so punishnt." Pandora pouted, flicking Adam’s forehead with mock anger.
The force was light, more playful teasing than actual punishnt.
It was clear that his words had hit their mark.
"But even if that’s the case, what difference does it make? I’m just an evil Witch, forever unable to escape from this place."
"Then, I’ll help you."
"...Huh?" Pandora stared blankly at him, certain she had misheard.
"I said, I’ll help you." Adam repeated.
"Why?" Pandora asked.
"Because you saved ." Adam explained, "During the battle with Ra, when I was about to die, you helped from the shadows. You allowed to successfully slay the deity at the last mont, didn’t you?"
"..." Pandora remained silent.
"So, consider it repaynt. I’ll do my utmost to help you."
Adam wasn’t soone who lacked gratitude.
Regardless of this woman’s motives for saving him, the fact that he survived and kept his body ant he would do everything possible to help her.
"Then... do your best to slay the Deities."
"Oh? Why? Don’t you want to leave this place?" Adam couldn’t see the connection between slaying Deities and helping her break free from mythological constraints.
"Yes, I want to leave here too, but with your current abilities, it’s impossible. So... if you want to save , focus on slaying Deities! That’s what the Fool should do!"
The girl nad Pandora openly displayed her intense hatred toward Deities before Adam.
She was entrusting her child, the newborn "Fool", with the great deed of slaying more Deities.
Of course, Adam agreed.
"Ah, if it can help you."
"...Eh? You agree so readily?"
"It’s nothing special. My goal was to beco stronger anyway, and isn’t hunting Deities the best path for that?"
Adam’s explanation left Pandora speechless.
Finally, she puffed her cheeks and muttered, "Hunting deities? You’re either terrifyingly confident or simply arrogant. Have you forgotten you were almost killed just now?"
She paused, examining Adam as he lay in her arms. Her eyes suddenly filled with intense anticipation.
"Well... to keep my adorable child healthy and alive, as your mother, I should give you sothing to protect your life."
"Wha—! Mmph...! Mmmmph!"
Before Adam could react, the loli girl holding him pressed her lips against his!
What was happening?!
A special energy flowed from her tender tongue, passing through his teeth and gradually seeping into his body. Their tongues intertwined.
This invasive energy stirred the "Creator God" Ra’s magic, guiding it to form incredibly complex magical formations within him.
Adam felt sothing changing inside him.
No — it was being strengthened!
Authority!
There could only be one explanation: Pandora was using her magic to enhance his Authority, making him stronger!
But... did it have to be done with a kiss?
The softness and sweetness of her lips...
Through this ambiguous kiss, Adam’s Authority was enhanced.
When they finally separated, a silvery thread still connected their lips, making the atmosphere between them strange and intimate.
eting Adam’s questioning gaze, Pandora explained with a blush, "Since you’ve transford into a Campione, external magic no longer affects you. I could only modify you internally this way."
"...Oh, I see."
"Yes, that’s right!" Pandora, red-faced and annoyed, tapped Adam’s forehead, pouting as she scolded sweetly, "Such a naughty child. What are you imagining? I am your ’mother’."
Though her response seed more like an excuse.
"Self-proclaid, right? I never thought of you as my mother."
A novel feeling washed over Adam. He knew Pandora harbored no ill will toward him. It wasn’t just that she needed his help; it felt more like she had been aiding him from the shadows all along.
Similarly, for so unknown reason, Adam also instinctively felt close to her.
It definitely wasn’t enchantnt!
With Aqua’s buffs and Falna, Adam was certain he hadn’t been bewitched by the loli girl before him.
"Honestly, you seed so composed earlier — why suddenly say such things... making your mother’s heart skip a beat."
"Ah..."
"So, what was with your initial wariness?" Pandora asked softly, "I could sense you were extrely guarded against at first."
"Well..." Her words evoked unpleasant mories for Adam.
The sa Witch, with extraordinary abilities, nad Pandora, with a loli appearance, and a natural affinity toward him.
With such strikingly similar traits, it would be impossible for him not to be afraid. He had an imdiate stress response, instinctively wanting to keep his distance.
"Actually..." Adam briefly described his encounter from another world.
"So that’s what happened... hmph, what a terrible woman, daring to covet my child! If I get the chance, I’ll teach her a lesson!" Pandora’s words sounded fierce, but her expression remained adorable.
"Yeah! too! If I get the chance, I’ll strip her naked, make her kneel and beg for rcy! Make her loudly say ’I was wrong’ and such!"
"...Are you sure you haven’t been influenced?" Instead of agreeing with his outburst, Pandora gently stroked his forehead with a hint of resignation, "You weren’t like this before. What happened to you?"
"Well, who knows? I’m also wary of this strange closeness I feel toward you."
"Honestly, didn’t I tell you? You’re my child, my... Hope, so naturally you’d feel close to ." As she spoke, Pandora lowered her head again.
Their lips joined once more, a soft warmth spreading between them as she pulled him closer. The silvery thread connecting their mouths glimred in the ethereal light of the ritual space.
After a long mont, they separated.
"This passionate kiss filled with love really makes it hard not to imagine things."
"This is just a mother’s simple reward for her child. Don’t get any strange ideas."
"Yes, yes, I’ll take it as that then." Adam opened his arms like a baby seeking a hug, making a willful request, "Then, I want another kiss."
"...Such a clingy child."
She lowered her head for a third kiss.
"Well, ti’s up. You need to leave now."
"Is it ti already... Then, see you next ti. Goodbye, Mo-ther."
"Yes, safe travels. Mother looks forward to you becoming stronger."
In the blink of an eye, Adam vanished from her arms.
Looking at the empty ritual space, Pandora whispered softly:
"Is this really the right thing to do, involving him in this? I truly am a deeply sinful Witch... But as a mother, I still want you to live a long life.
My... Last Hope."
