Chapter 678: Veena and Alisa Want a Child!
"I will definitely study hard!"
Amano Hina clenched her small fists, her eyes shining with determination. She absolutely did not want to give up this opportunity.
For a girl who had been adrift, constantly worried about her next meal and shelter, having a stable place to live and a stable job was something she had always dreamed of. It was a lifeline she wouldn't let slip through her fingers.
"Hmm, for your specific work assignments, I will have Nao-chan and Kanae-san guide you. They know the routine best. First, get familiar with the surrounding environment."
"Yes! I'll do my best!"
Nabe and the others led Amano Hina away, her steps light despite her nervousness.
But in the grand foyer, Albedo and Shalltear hesitated in place, looking troubled. Their faces were flushed, their breathing slightly erratic.
... ...
Ren knew their current state without even looking closely. The scent of arousal was thick in the air.
They were severely 'leaking', their bodies reacting to his presence and the residual energy of his earlier activities, but they were even more severely 'blocked' by his orders.
Helplessly, he ordered, his voice firm but carrying a hint of amusement: "Go and do your maid work well. You can 'move' by yourselves later if you need relief."
Hearing this, Albedo and Shalltear's expressions flickered with a moment of visible disappointment. Their wings drooped, and Shalltear let out a small, unsatisfied whine. But then, their expressions quickly turned serious as they bowed deeply.
"As you command, Master."
They left to attend to their duties, though their steps were perhaps a little hurried.
Ren watched them go, noticing the two small pools of reflective water on the marble floor where they had been standing. His eyelids twitched. They really are hopeless.
He waved his hand at the two women still lingering by his side. "Tohka, Icarus, you two go rest. I'll join you later."
Tohka pouted slightly but nodded, dragging a reluctant Icarus away.
"But what's up with you two peeking?"
Ren walked to the plush sofa and sat down, his calm gaze sweeping to the corner of the living room where the shadows were deepest.
Alisa Ilinichina Amiella, wearing only a long white T-shirt that barely covered her thighs, timidly walked out. Her usual fiery demeanor was gone, replaced by a shy hesitation. Followed by Veena—Bishamonten—whose expression was complex, a mix of divine dignity and mortal longing.
"You two rested so quickly?"
Ren gestured with his hand.
Space warped, and the two women were instantly teleported to his sides. His uninhibited large hands embraced their slender waists, pulling them down onto the sofa with him.
"Tsk..."
Seeing this scene from the hallway, Tohka clicked her tongue, a flash of jealousy in her eyes.
Then she pulled Icarus out of the living room before the Angel could try to join in.
Even though Icarus was eagerly wanting to stay, her wings fluttering with anticipation.
Ren smiled, inhaling deeply. He savored the faint, fresh scent of soap and shampoo from the two women who had just cleaned their bodies.
Veena and Alisa, who had been teleported over, only stiffened for a moment before gradually relaxing into his embrace. Their bodies were warm and soft against his.
Everyone else was still asleep, exhausted from the "party," probably not even having cleaned their bodies yet.
These two, however, were experiencing it for the first time in a while, and they were quite energetic. Their skin glowed with vitality.
The key was that they both looked troubled, their brows furrowed with unspoken thoughts.
"Tell me, you've been peeking since just now. Is there something you want to tell me?"
Ren was asking them a question, but his large hand was not idle. It slipped under the hem of Alisa's shirt, tracing the curve of her hip.
Alisa and Veena didn't stop him. In fact, they leaned into the touch.
The two looked at each other, a silent communication passing between them.
It was Alisa who spoke first.
She looked up, her gentle gaze meeting Ren's golden eyes. Her blue eyes were shimmering with unshed tears.
But the next second, she seemed to want to lower her head out of some fear, biting her lip.
However, Ren pressed his forehead against her smooth forehead, forcing her to look him in the eye by closing the distance. His breath mingled with hers.
He didn't want his women to always look away from him. He wanted them to bare their souls as they bared their bodies.
"I..."
This situation made Alisa want to push him away in confusion. The intimacy was overwhelming.
But Ren wouldn't let her push him away so easily. His grip on her waist tightened.
Instead, he commanded forcefully, his voice dropping an octave: "Don't move."
Alisa's body stiffened, her breath hitching.
What made her eyes widen even more was when Ren then kissed her lips. It wasn't a gentle peck, but a deep, claiming kiss that stole her breath away.
A warm sensation gradually spread throughout her body, starting from her lips and pooling in her lower belly.
From the initial panic, Alisa gradually immersed herself. Her hands came up to clutch his shoulders, her fingers digging in.
After a long while, the only sounds in the room were wet kisses and soft moans.
"Cough cough!!!"
It was Veena who finally couldn't stand it and cleared her throat loudly, making the two stop. Her face was flushed, her violet eyes averting from the scene.
Because they could kiss, but Alisa was becoming increasingly unrestrained. She was practically climbing onto Ren's lap.
That's right.
It was Alisa. The usually reserved New-Type God Eater was acting out of character.
Ren hadn't moved much, but she was almost clinging to him like a koala.
"Ugh!"
Alisa let out a shy whimper, like a bullied little beast, burying her face in Ren's neck.
Ren's voice also softened, his hand stroking her back soothingly: "Alisa, you don't need to be so insecure. I'm right here."
"Since coming here, your changes have been obvious to everyone. You've opened up. And I, now, can be considered your man, right? If you have anything, just say it directly and boldly."
Alisa's body trembled against him.
She had indeed changed a lot since coming here from the desolate, Aragami-infested world.
She used to only think about avenging her parents; that was her only goal in life. It was a hollow existence fueled by hatred.
Later, with Ren's help, she truly succeeded in her revenge. She had slain the Aragami that took her family.
But after her revenge, she truly lost her goal in life. The fire that drove her went out.
Her heart became empty.
After being brought to this world, she met gentle people like Baiheng, and other friendly people who accepted her without question.
In such an environment, she was also changing subtly. She was learning to live, not just survive.
"I..."
Alisa raised her head, looking at him with hesitant hope. She bravely asked: "Can you be my family?"
She yearned, yearned to have a family again. To have a place where she belonged.
Ren paused, surprised by the simplicity and depth of her request. Then, he gently kissed her forehead again.
He chuckled, a warm sound that vibrated through her chest: "Of course. You are my woman, and my family. And Utaha, Eriri, and the others are all your family too. This entire house is your family."
This sincerity moved Alisa more than any grand gesture.
Sparkling tears fell from her eyes, but a happy, blissful smile graced her lips.
She leaned gently against Ren's shoulder, serene and natural.
"Thank you..."
Alisa's emotional knot was truly untied at this moment. She had found her home.
That left only Veena.
This woman, who was originally the strongest War God in Takama-ga-hara, feared and respected by all.
Now, she was like a gentle wife, gazing at Ren's profile with a look that would shock her Regalia.
Especially with her specially styled golden hair draped from her shoulder to her chest, in the classic 'wife' hairstyle, it added even more to this gentleness.
She silently watched Ren gently comfort Alisa, and her heart inexplicably sped up.
She wondered if she could also be treated so gently. She, a god of war, who was used to battles and blood.
As if seeing her thoughts, Ren turned to her. He gently lifted her pale neck with his fingers and gave her the same deep kiss he had given Alisa.
Veena, having already anticipated it, was much more proactive than Alisa. She wrapped her arms around him, pulling him closer, matching his intensity.
After a good while.
Veena also sweetly leaned into Ren's embrace, her head resting on his other shoulder.
There were no extra words needed.
Just one kiss, and Veena recognized her man, understood her own heart, and felt Ren's strong possessiveness over her divinity.
Though it was possessiveness, it still made her heart sweet. It meant she belonged.
But she still had a problem that bothered her. A worry that gnawed at her divine essence.
"Ren-kun, do you think gods like us... can really live like humans?"
"Veena, are you worried about something?"
Veena looked up, gazing at Ren with violet eyes full of affection and uncertainty. "I don't know if a divine body like mine can truly unite with a human... and bear children for you."
"Oh?"
Ren was immediately surprised, his eyebrows raising: "You want a child?"
"Mm."
Veena nodded heavily, her cheeks flushing a deep red.
Her hand subconsciously caressed her lower abdomen, her gaze as gentle as water.
"Only by bearing a child for Ren-kun as a woman can I be considered a complete person, right? I want to experience that... that mortal happiness."
Alisa couldn't help but look at her own belly, her hand drifting there unconsciously.
She had received so much from Ren... she should also have a chance, right?
Seeing that both of them were quite expectant, Ren smiled wryly and pinched their cheeks.
"Veena, you don't have to worry about biology."
"Now you are no longer the original Bishamonten bound by the laws of the Far Shore. You are my Infinite Angel, and my woman. My laws supersede the world's. So you can naturally conceive my child."
Hearing this, Veena's eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "Then am I now—!"
She remembered Ren had given her at least three or more anime-amounts of essence earlier. So there should be no problem!
"Don't think too much, you can all conceive my children, but not now."
The apocalypse has not yet been settled; he is not ready to consider these matters on a large scale.
If everyone wanted a child right now, that would be at least two hundred pregnant women.
Adding his little angels and the others, that would be hundreds of thousands... just thinking about it made his scalp tingle. He needed to save the world first.
But he still made a promise to the two of them, seeing the longing in their eyes.
"When everything is over, I will definitely work hard to let you bear my children. I promise. We will fill this house with noise."
"Mm, we believe you."
Veena and Alisa smiled, snuggling closer to him, their hearts finally at ease.
