Chapter 445: Pandora’s Yandere Affection

“…Princess Eclipsya, why are we here?” I ask doubtfully as Princess Eclipsya brought me to the castle courtyard out of nowhere.

“…Aokitsu, my two mommies are right there.” She points at nothing and speaks while I can neither see nor sense anything.

“…”

“Just wait, they should be out soon… they’re in Mommy Tsukuyomi’s palace! Mommy Tsukuyomi showed it to me once. Time flows slower there, and it’s been hours since they went in, so they should be coming out any moment now,” she says with conviction.

’I see…’ I decide to wait with her since she asked me to come.

’I wish Freya were here…’ Freya is with Elena, finishing looting the cities. They’ll be back soon, but I have to say I miss Freya. It’s been several months since I last saw her.

“…” Suddenly, I feel a macabre sensation, and even Eclipsya shudders in fear, getting goosebumps as she hides behind me. Then, a black mass appears out of nowhere, and I think about attacking, but I realize it’s Pandora, so I stay still.

It looks like a sphere that quickly dissolves into a black liquid on the ground. From within, I see a bizarrely monstrous Pandora. When the hundreds of eyes lock onto me, I shudder. My tail and ears droop down in fear as I avert my gaze, not wanting to become the target of this predator that seems like the top of the food chain.

“…” But then I see Tsukuyomi on the ground. She’s covered in that black mass and a viscous white liquid mixed with blood. I see numerous bite marks, but they aren’t light nips. They are deep bites, deep enough to tear out chunks of flesh that are still bleeding.

Tsukuyomi crawls away, crying, trying to escape from Pandora before she stops and vomits a black sludge. I quickly crouch down, grab Eclipsya, and cover her eyes.

“…” I hear Tsukuyomi’s painful moans and sobs as Pandora begins to return to normal.

“Hey, Aokitsu, good thing you’re here. I was just about to call someone to take care of Tsukuyomi. Come here, give me Eclipsya and take Tsukuyomi to her room,” she says authoritatively as the black sludge on the floor flows back into her body.

“O-Okay…” I approach, still afraid. Eclipsya also seems frightened and is trembling in my arms. As I get closer, I see Tsukuyomi’s condition clearly.

’…’ I hand Eclipsya over to Pandora’s arms. She starts walking away with her, speaking words to calm her down. I don’t even try to listen; I just pick up Tsukuyomi and start running, carrying her to a room.

Before turning the corner into the castle, I take one last look at Pandora, who is talking cheerfully with Eclipsya.

’Abomination…’ I have the urge to say it, but I value my life, so I just carry Tsukuyomi, who is crying and trembling in my arms.

I speed up as much as possible to take her to her own room, despite the unpleasant smell of blood and other scents I detect.

As soon as I reach the room, I lay her on the bed, hearing her pained groans. I try to leave to find someone with healing abilities, but she grabs me.

“N-No… I-I’ll heal… m-myself… I d-don’t want anyone to s-see me l-like this…” she says through tears, squeezing me hard enough to hurt.

“Okay…”

“…” I look at her body, seeing that her state is worse than what I had glimpsed before. Up close, it’s even more gruesome.

’It’s impressive she’s still alive… I guess being a goddess really is something else…’ I wouldn’t have survived with so many deep wounds like that.

“Do you want to talk about… what happened?” I don’t really want to hear it, but I ask anyway, thinking it might help?

“…”

“…” She takes a deep breath, trying to stabilize herself while moving a hand to her stomach and groaning in pain. She spends a few minutes breathing like this to steady herself, despite her crying.

“…It was… horrible… it was worse than Pandora…” she says, as if it wasn’t Pandora who did it.

“She bit me and healed me… over and over… and treated it like… something seductive while talking about how much she l-liked me… I felt her teeth tearing my flesh and the disgusting sound of chewing…”

“The dozens of mouths biting me and licking the blood… I couldn’t speak… she… she didn’t let me quit until she was satisfied… I felt that disgusting thing entering my body…”

“She made a mess inside me… I-I felt the black sludge invading my body, writhing… writhing… I can still feel it… crawling inside me… the viscosity consuming my body… the black sludge rubbing against my organs…” Tsukuyomi begins to speak deliriously.

“It’s… so disgusting… disgusting… I can still see that thing going in and out of my body… laughing madly as if it were fun to watch me suffer…”

“That voice full of affection and distorted sadism… I’ve never had such a horrible, disgusting, vile, and profane experience in my entire existence…” She continues talking as if I weren’t even here, while I just listen.

…

…

…

“Pandora Yandere, you disgusting bitch!!” I yell at Pandora Yandere in the sea of consciousness!! This whore is controlling my body and won’t let me out of here! She’s hugging my daughter while talking to her, pretending to be me!

“Pandora, don’t be so angry. No one told you to get knocked out! You still have lingering effects from your fight with the heroes! It was obvious that taking such a powerful hit would be challenging! Especially being hit directly in the head with no defense.”

“Even though your body has recovered, your mind is still reeling from so many near-death experiences because you still have strong self-preservation instincts,” she says with a smile.

“Stop pretending to be me!!! Give me back my body!” I say, trying to regain control, but I can’t. For some reason, I’m trapped in the black sludge of the sea of consciousness.

“Calm down, I’ll give it back soon, I promise! I just want to hug our daughter a little longer! We are still the same being! Your children are my children!” she says with a sadistic smile.

But I really don’t trust her near my children! This vile whore did unspeakable things to Tsukuyomi, I’d even say disgusting things. Her way of showing affection is worse than mine.

That bitch combined sex between a normal physical body and a partially monstrous form! She LITERALLY fucked Tsukuyomi inside and out in ways that are disgusting even to remember.

Until now, Pandora Yandere was the one most similar to me in personality. In fact, she acted very much like me! But just seeing her with Tsukuyomi made me understand; she’s much worse than I am.

She’s like me, but a thousand times more sadistic and lecherous, probably a “mirror” showing what [Pandora] should have been like if I weren’t a reincarnated person.

And I have to say, it’s disturbing even to me. I didn’t even know you could have “sex” with those body parts! I also never imagined something could enter there to deposit fluids… I didn’t even know something could go in and out of certain points she used without killing the person in question.

“Pandora, don’t look at me like I’m disgusting. You’d like it too if you tried. It’s quite… pleasurable, and a fun experience,” she says with a huge smile.

“There’s nothing normal about doing that! It’s like, really disgusting… and it seems terribly horrible for the other person.” Tsukuyomi didn’t seem to enjoy any of it at all.

It was like pure torture with the sole purpose of generating pleasure for Pandora Yandere herself.

“H-Hahahahahahahahahahaha… oh, oh Pandora, you really want to judge what I do? You think you’re so much better than me? Give me a break, will you? You used drugs and aphrodisiacs on most of your partners. Why did you do that?”

“Isn’t it precisely because you would also hurt them terribly during sex? Frankly, you used aphrodisiacs on Zephyra, Amiya, Elena, and many others!”

“You only stopped because your partners’ bodies are already ’trained’ and now they feel pleasure from the violent sex you have. The only ones you ’never’ used aphrodisiacs on so far were Delphina, Mikael, and Grimm.”

“And those three are absurdly strong!! Not to mention, with Mikael, you used magic to create an effect that’s practically an aphrodisiac, so once again, you also couldn’t have sex without hurting the other person at the beginning.”

“And with Delphina, you did test some aphrodisiacs, even if you didn’t use them consistently.”

“If I had drugged Tsukuyomi, she would have felt pleasure too. I just simply didn’t want to. Besides, she felt pleasure with some parts after 3 days of sex with me.” She makes a valid point.

“…It’s… different…” I say, even though I know it’s not that different. I really used to use aphrodisiacs a lot before, although with Zephyra, I haven’t used them in a long time! Lycoris was made without a single drop of aphrodisiac in Zephyra’s body.

“Whatever, Pandora Yandere, what you do or don’t do doesn’t matter to me… just… stop giving me this shitty image.” Tsukuyomi definitely has a terrible image of me now.

“And just let me out… I want to go back! I’ve been here for days, and frankly, I’m tired of seeing you! As if the several months I spent here while making Lycoris weren’t enough!!” I say, frustrated.

“…Fine, get out… I’ll let you go. But next time you lose consciousness… I’ll make sure to take your place for even longer,” she says in a strangely threatening tone.

“Hey, what do you…” Before I can ask what she means, she forcibly ejects me from the sea of consciousness. I appear in my body, stumbling and almost falling due to the momentum with which I was thrown out.

“…” I look at Eclipsya, who has finally calmed down. She was somewhat afraid of me before, but now her gaze is more peaceful.

“Mommy, I don’t know what happened earlier, but I prefer you like this,” Eclipsya says with a smile. It seems she noticed the change in atmosphere between me and Pandora Yandere.

“Yes… Sweetie, how about we go talk a bit about your magic?” I say, making her excited for it.

’I wonder if Tsukuyomi is okay…’ Pandora Yandere’s treatment of her was horrible, truly horrible. Even for me, it was something tense. I’d really rather just forget it.

I admit that… I enjoyed seeing Tsukuyomi suffer like that. She deserved it for trying to interfere in my relationship with Zephyra. However, it raises some problematic doubts for me.

’Why can Pandora Yandere keep me trapped in the sea of consciousness?… Maybe… I shouldn’t have made a deal with her…’ I admit I somewhat regret giving myself to her.

Inside the sea of consciousness, I belong to Pandora Yandere. I’m part of her so-called harem. So far, she hasn’t done anything major to me, but… when she decides to, I wonder if it won’t be dangerous.

’Maybe I should create some countermeasures…’ She is useful, but she is also dangerous. I know I can’t get rid of her because she is a part of me; she is literally me. But there must be some way to reduce her power and influence over me.

And I think the worst part about Pandora Yandere is that she sees violence as intimacy and affection as domination. And I refuse to be dominated by a piece of myself.

It’s obvious to me that the painful torture Pandora Yandere inflicted on Tsukuyomi wasn’t really about causing pain, but about showing her affection, just like she hurts Pandora Monster and Tiny Pandora, making it clear that for Pandora Yandere, hurting her partners is how she demonstrates love.

And all that protects me so far is that I’m too important to be “broken.” Pandora Yandere needs me to command the body because I’m the best at it.
