Akashic Records of the Bastard Child Engaged to a Goddess-Chapter 360 I’m a womanizer?

360 I'm a womanizer?

The next morning, the tendrils of reality wobbled.

Space was bent and distorted around a swirling black portal.

And as you'd expect, that portal was in my room.

There, standing beside the black vortex, was Senesica.

She looked more confident than usual, and trust me, on a very normal day Senesica was really confident. That much was obvious since the first time I met her.

The smile on her face was less sexy and thirsty and more... well, happy.

Her beautiful blue eyes sparkled as she gazed at the glittering engagement ring adorning her finger.

It was the ring I had just given her to seal our union.

Lilith loomed in a corner, her arms tightly folded across her chest.

She looked a little annoyed as she observed Senesica.

A little irritated, Lilith spoke, "You seem a little too excited about that ring, sister."

Senesica let out a light chuckle and turned to face Lilith. "No need to feel envious, Lilith," she replied confidently. "Your time will come soon."

Oh yeah, that's kinda true...

Dendrossa's married to a definitely high ranking demon in the Tenebrous Slade and now Senesica was technically married to me, so that leaves only Lilith, right?

It was weirder because she was the middle child...

It was a well known fact that anyone who was the middle child was mostly always awkward or had some sort of bad luck.

There's even the possibility that Lilith didn't even like being around her sisters, after all she's been the Vice-principal of the school for a very long time supposedly, and she also said that she helped the first principal of the school, alongside some Divine Tier Ascended Humans to create Aldnoah Magic University.

That sounds like a lot of charitable achievement, but at the same time it also sounds like an excuse not to be around her sisters.

And to be honest, I don't blame her, Lilith was just a little too mature for them.

Senesica was also mature, but to be honest, she was mature when it came to all the wrong things... but I'm not complaining, those wrong things does make me feel good. Hehe.

As for Dendrossa, no, she wasn't mature in any way, an absolute nuisance.

I could already hear her noisy laugher in my head.

Sigh...

Lilith heaved a soft sigh. "It's not jealousy. I'm merely growing weary of not being heard over a piece of jewelry," she confessed.

At Lilith's accurate prediction, Senesica remained captivated by her ring, her attention didn't leave it while dismissing the conversation at hand.

Lilith breathed an exasperated sigh. "And you're doing exactly that."

Then, I approached Senesica, "How long will you be gone this time?"

Senesica turned her gaze toward me, her lips forming a warm smile. "It shouldn't be longer than three weeks or maybe just a little over a month. There are a few things I need to do for Dendrossa," she answered.

I gazed at her still trying to keep my smile. "I wish we could spend some of that time getting to know each other better," I expressed.

Senesica tenderly fixed a stray lock of my hair, gently tucking it behind my ear.

She rested a finger on my forehead, her gaze tender and earnest.

"I understand it... trust me, I really do," she reassured me. "But, for now our marriage may seem like a predicament. However, I'm more than sure that as time passes, we'll grow to love each other deeply, even more than we do now," she said softly.

"But I love you now," I interjected. "There's no need to worry about whether or not it's fake."

I didn't need to lie to her for any reason, and there wasn't any use doing that.

I'd never lie to someone about loving them, and although it may seem a little forced, and I truly do know it is, there's just something about her acting like a mother to Silica that makes me fall deeper in love with her.

Senesica let out a giggle, pressing a finger playfully against my forehead. "There's no need to force it. You're only saying that because you think I look sexy as hell," she teased. "Soon enough, you'll love me for who I am, and you won't be able to let go, never."

"That sounds a little... extreme..." I told her. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝒃𝒏𝓸𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝙢

Senesica being possessive over me would be one of the best things. Her cat form and her normal form had one thing in common— foxy. And if that was the case, she'd definitely be as possessive as a cat with their owner or their yarn ball... It was definitely fun just thinking about it.

"I don't see any reason not to get extreme," she smiled. "When we're together again, we can do a lot more dirty things together... Next time you'll be rubbing just more than my horns."

Intrigued and slightly caught off guard by her words, I raised an eyebrow. "And what do you mean by 'dirty things'?" I asked knowingly.

Senesica leaned in close to my ear, her voice filled with mischief. "Well, let's just say we'll explore all sorts of deep and wet places together, and you can even eat whatever you want on or from inside me," she whispered.

Blinking several times, I stuttered, "Th-that's a bit... well, okay."

As the portal began to fade away, Senesica gave me a mischievous wink. "Don't worry, love. We'll have plenty of time to discuss the details when I return," she said.

Silica had been hiding behind Senesica all this time, a small figure peeking out from her mother's protective embrace.

Recognizing her presence, Senesica said, "Oh, Silica."

Silica hesitantly moved her head out from behind Senesica's legs and said, "Yes, mommy."

Senesica drew a deep breath before gently telling Silica, "You should go stay with daddy now, sweetie. Mommy's about to go."

Senesica and I had agreed that since time moved so fast in Tenebrous Slade, that it'd be better if she stayed with me for the meantime. That way, I wouldn't miss out on making an impact in Silica's life as a child. Also, Senesica didn't feel comfortable in letting her stay in Tenebrous Slade since hybrids weren't as smiled upon as pure bloods. There was also the fact that Silica was the niece of the Immortal Demon King, Dendrossa. If they found out she was a half-blood, it'd cause a lot of unwanted drama.

But, the most important thing was me spending time with Silica.

Silica's eyes shifted to me, and she questioned her mother's departure with a disheartened gaze, "Why can't I stay with both mommy and daddy, together?"

Senesica's expression softened, and she explained, "Mommy and daddy are both very busy, Silica. We hardly have any time to spend together."

The little girl's face fell, her heart heavy with sadness.

Silica uttered a crestfallen "Okay," but with a lingering sadness in her voice as she witnessed her mother's impending departure.

I had to bring her comfort.

I walked towards her and knelt down on one knee, trying to reassure her, "We'll be able to spend time together at some point, Silica. Don't worry."

Yet Silica's response was laced with melancholy, "I know that'll never happen."

Puzzled, I inquired, "Why, though?"

Silica's tiny finger pointed at me, then at Lilith, and finally at Stellaria, who lounged lazily on the bed.

She summoned the courage to voice her deeper concerns,

"Mommy says you're a ladies' man and because of that she has to do a lot of things to make sure that she doesn't lose to them, even if it means doing the..."

Her words were immediately silenced as Senesica dived down and covered Silica's mouth, muffling her further attempts to speak.

Sternly, Senesica told Silica, "That's enough. Daddy doesn't need to know how mommy really feels."

Eventually, Silica settled down, and her mother removed her hands, releasing the stifled words.

"Sorry for talking too much, mommy," Silica murmured, lowering her head in penance.

Senesica patted Silica's head and affectionately said, "It's fine, you're a good girl."

Suddenly, Stellaria intervened with a flourish, raising her hand as if to draw attention to herself.

"I have to agree with the little one, but Lumiere's more of a womanizer than a ladies' man," she chirped mischievously.

I immediately pushed back, exclaiming, "That's not true! I'm not a womanizer."

Stellaria's hand fell lazily back onto the bed, and she feigned surprise, drawling, "Well, I didn't expect you to be a liar too."

Frustration welled up within me, and I gritted my teeth in annoyance.

Stellaria couldn't help but chuckle, adding to my exasperation.

To my surprise, Silica burst into giggles, her sudden outburst catching Senesica and me off guard. We exchanged bewildered glances before breaking into smiles at Silica's spontaneous laughter.

At that moment, Lilith chimed in, "It still doesn't change the fact that you're a womanizer."

"Oh, come on!"
