Chapter 366: Two Year Anniversary

“Okay, is everyone ready?” I ask everyone here for the Pandora party, several nobles have come to this event and things look beautiful.

“Yes, Queen Zephyra, everything is ready, you can call her whenever you want,” Freya tells me as I nod. Today is Pandora’s birthday, and Pandora is waiting up there.

Since everything is ready here, I go outside to look for Pandora, I’m sure she’ll be excited.

’The party seems like it will be incredible’ I must say that even I’m excited about this now, I wonder what kind of reaction Pandora will have.

…

…

…

“My cute daughter!! Want a little sweet?” I say to Eclipsya, who was left with me, as Zephyra and Tsukuyomi went to the party venue to make sure everything was ready for me.

So I stayed in a room with Eclipsya to take care of her, and I must say, she’s so cute!!! I never thought my daughters would be such cuties.

“…” I look into Eclipsya’s eyes, seeing an intelligence that practically no one would expect from a baby, she is undoubtedly brilliant and looks at me with a captivating intelligence.

’I wonder when she’ll start talking’ I’m interested in hearing her call me mommy.

“Pandora, everything is ready,” I hear Zephyra’s voice, so I get up holding Eclipsya in an embrace, Eclipsya hugs my chest tightly as I go to the door.

’Finally!!’ Just hearing and sensing the magic there was already exciting me, even Grimm is there, I can feel the magic.

“Zephyra, can you hold Eclipsya for me?” I say, passing Eclipsya to Zephyra as soon as the door is opened.

“Oh…Pandora, you’re…magnificent,” Zephyra looks at me with surprise, she hadn’t seen the dress I chose for the birthday yet, it’s a beautiful all-black dress with ruby details.

The ruffles have a translucent gray tone, creating an elegant and sensual image in some parts while perfectly matching my tail, I’m also wearing a beautiful Celestial Stone necklace that, being red, matches my angelic halo.

“Thank you for the compliment, you also look beautiful in that dress, the white with pastel pink matched you perfectly and even contrasts with me,” I like black clothes, and Zephyra usually wears white clothes, creating an interesting contrast between us two.

“T-Thank you,” she speaks shyly, hugging Eclipsya as we start walking.

“Tsukuyomi is there waiting…she’s also beautiful,” Zephyra says as I just nod.

“And Azazel, is she very cute?” I change the subject, I don’t want to know much about Tsukuyomi, who wants her is the Yandere Pandora, not me.

“Ah yes, she is, Grimm put her in a sunny yellow dress with black ruffles that made her look very cute,” she says as I imagine, it reminds me of a cute little bee.

“Looks like she’ll be a cutie,” I say as we descend the stairs, Eclipsya is so quiet that I end up talking to Zephyra without interruption until we arrive in front of the party room.

’Let’s see what they did for me’ I hope for great things from this party, I hold the doorknob and without delay I open the door, seeing many guests chatting with each other.

They look at me as I give a smile, seeing that there are very important people here.

I walk forward, joining a group that I judge to be more important, seeing Tsukuyomi, Azazel, and Grimm together, I approach with a huge smile and soon Azazel notices me.

“Mama Pandoru!!” Azazel runs to me, arriving quickly and hugging my leg with a huge smile on her face.

“Daughter, I missed you too,” I say, picking her up as she gives me a huge smile, briefly looking at Eclipsya.

“Me too! Me too,” she speaks all cheerfully.

“Thank you for the invitation, Pandora,” Grimm approaches with that mischievous little smile of hers.

“I invited you more for my daughter, really,” I say with an equally mischievous smile, she gives me a scornful look as I look at the cake.

’What a beautiful cake’ A very large cake, it must be 4 meters tall and from the smell it seems to be made of cake, meat, and ice cream, which generated an interesting aroma and balance, a good choice indeed.

The cake is a light salmon color coated in a tail that resembles strawberry, but it’s blood and has an elegant and finely ornamented glaze in white roses.

Perfect for me, my daughters, and guests who like raw meat, which must be a large part.

“Happy birthday, Pandora,” Tsukuyomi says to me as I approach the cake, holding Azazel, who seems enchanted by the cake.

“…” I give Tsukuyomi a smile as I see Lilith calling attention by tapping a fork on a glass to get everyone’s attention.

“Attention everyone, as many of you here must know, I am Lilith, the current saint, and I would like to toast to Pandora’s life. Today is a day of celebration, an important day that marks her birth, and two years of leadership…”

“It may have seemed like a short time, but she has made remarkable changes in these two years and deserves such recognition, so I believe this party is important to show that we are seeing and celebrating her existence.”

“Just as we are in a party here, the city is also having its own party, I consider Pandora not only a boss or leader, but a valuable friend who fights for an important cause for demons and monsters.”

“This speech is not only to glorify her, but to raise awareness among all of you here and remind you that Pandora as the Demon King is not just an icon, but someone who exists and is here and now.”

“Making our lives better, so I want to make a toast to her, all of you here are important figures and I think this union is pleasant.” Lilith completes, raising her glass.

Followed by several who raise their glasses, making toasts with people nearby, and so the tinkling of glasses occurs all over, which is pleasant. I look at Lilith, who nods at me.

“Zephyra, shall we cut the cake? Azazel is almost drooling on my clothes,” I say as Azazel hides her mouth with her hand, but her eyes are fixed on the cake.

“Of course, here you go, Pandora,” Zephyra says, taking something for me to cut the cake as I put Azazel on the floor, and Grimm comes up behind me, giving me a hug and holding my hands.

“I’ll help you cut the cake,” Grimm whispers in my ear, but I push her away.

“I don’t need help, unless you want to give me your hand,” I say with a little smile.

“Tsk, you’re so stingy, lucky it’s your birthday and I don’t want fights,” she says, taking Azazel’s hand and stepping back.

“Of course, of course,” I say, cutting a slice of the cake and placing it on a plate, soon their gazes become anxious.

“Pandora, so…who’s the first slice for?” Tsukuyomi asks, not expecting the slice to go to her, but curious.

’Ah yes…there’s this nonsense’ I think deeply about who to give the first slice of cake to, and there couldn’t be a better person.

“I will give the first slice to the person who has always trusted in my potential, who never gave up and always trusted, moving forward even though the world seemed and was her enemy,” I begin a little speech.

“The person who in the end was the most important to me, and who in the end managed to truly change, becoming something new…the first slice of cake goes to…” I start opening a suspense.

“Me, obviously,” I say, taking a piece of the slice with a fork and tasting it, the breaking of everyone’s expectation is visible, Zephyra seemed slightly shaken and perhaps even disappointed.

Grimm has a noticeable look of anger, Eclipsya and Azazel don’t understand, and Tsukuyomi is holding back from laughing as I savor the cake.

In the end, the most important person to me is myself, I was the one who made all these external and internal changes, often without any support, with minimal help from others.

And the one who really helped me the most was my mother, the Goddess of the Abyss, who gave me a second chance, but since she’s not here, obviously the cake goes to me.

“Hmm, the cake is delicious,” It has a sweet and pleasant taste, reminds me of strawberry, but it also has the wonderful taste of quality meat and blood, along with the icy flavor, forming a pleasant balance.

“You can all serve yourselves, folks,” I say as I continue eating my slice, Azazel, as soon as she has permission, sticks her hand in the cake, grabbing a piece with a smile and shoving it in her mouth.

“…” Grimm lets out a sigh as Zephyra quickly recovers and cuts a slice of cake for herself, Eclipsya, and Tsukuyomi, other guests are drawn to this as I move away a little, savoring the cake and seeing the image it gives me.

“…” I look at the scene, silently eating the cake, Eclipsya gives a soft smile as she tries a piece of the cake, while Azazel licks her fingers with joy, grabbing another piece of the cake, no one dares to say anything because Azazel is my daughter, so she feasts on what she grabs.

Grimm also grabs a piece without much interest since it’s not the first slice, and Tsukuyomi also grabs a discreet piece that Zephyra cut for her and eats it silently, but savoring it elegantly.

“I think I like this,” I murmur with a smile, this scene of my family enjoying a common moment like this is pleasant, and also very rare.

Mikael and Delphina are missing, but for now, just having them here already satisfies me, maybe in the future everyone can be reunited.

But just having this party is already enough for me on my second birthday.

“Hey, Pandora, come here too,” Zephyra says as I’m uncertain, but I decide to approach the group again, although observing from afar is good, the party is mine, the moment is mine, and I should enjoy it instead of being a spectator of my life.

“Of course, my Queen, I still have a lot to try,” I say, approaching with a smile.
