The Hero Took Everything from Me, So I Partied with the Hero's Mother!

Chapter 211: The Underworld Dragon and Goddess

Main character's POV

With a happy face, Ishtas-sama disappeared.

Even I, who knows the world is mostly monotheistic, have no intention of opposing the goddess.

However, why does it seem like the goddess is surprisingly disappointing?

But I think there is more to this story.

A common sense person? Would a rational being like Bauer-sama, even as a rational dragon, allow such an unfair tale?

I'm sure there must be something else going on.

As proof, Ishtas-sama is still around.

I have to think... there must be something going on.

"Good for you, Yellow Dragon Ceres...the problem is now solved..." Bauer-sama congratulates me.

Has anything good happened in this story so far?

I don't know.

"Did something get resolved?" I asked.

"Yes...rejoice, Ceres," replied Bauer-sama, "this is where your biggest dream comes true."

"My dream?" I asked, surprised.

"I told you before," Bauer-sama said, "it's about your wife's lifespan."

◆◆Flashback◆◆

'Maybe I will still love everyone even 500 years from now,' I said.

'Ceres...I'm telling you, they probably won't love you 500 years from now,' Bauer-sama replied.

That's not true...I'm sure everyone will still love me.

'That's not true...it's absolutely not true,' I said.

'Listen well, Ceres... humans are reincarnated. Unlike us, who will never die. In the near future they will die, come to this underworld, and be reborn. No matter how much you love each other, they cannot carry their memories into the next life. Even though they become my servants, I can only interfere with them while they are dead and in the underworld... I'm sorry, but that's the truth of this world," Bauer-sama replied and explained.

Is that it?

"Is that... about everyone's death and reincarnation?" I asked.

"That's right. There was a solution to it... and it's been resolved," Bauer-sama replied.

"What do you mean?" I asked, curious.

It seems that the structure of immortality of dragons and gods is different, and much of the immortality of gods depend on living in the divine realm.

Simply put, 'time moves extremely slowly for creatures in the divine realm...' It's said that time there progresses so slowly that it's almost as if it has stopped altogether

"So, unlike us dragons, the gods don't really live forever. They just 'live so long they seem immortal.' That's the truth," Bauer-sama explained.

"Okay, so... what does that mean?" I asked.

"Listen, Ceres... if you make them drink your blood, you can make then young again, well, there's a limit, but they'll be young again, and once they're rejuvenated, they can live with Ishtar in the divine realm. That way, the issue is resolved... They won't be immortal, but they will gain a lifespan of almost a few hundred billion years, just like the gods... That's almost a solution, right?" Bauer-sama explained.

Why... almost?

"What do you mean by 'almost'?" I asked.

"You are the real deal, immortal. But your partner will only be 'immortal-ish' and will eventually have to part with you. That's why it's 'almost'." Bauer-sama explained.

"I see..." I nodded.

"But as a dragon,I don't understand why you would choose to live with multiple partners for a lifetime when you could have one all to yourself, even if they're gods and not dragons. It's a foolish thing to do," Bauer-sama continued, somewhat baffled.

"Hahaha, I suppose so," I laughed.

Goddess Ishtas is known for her compassion.

Surprisingly, I think she knew this would happen.

"And you know... only your wives will have the 'false immortality'," Bauer-sama reminded.

"Of course..." I replied.

"Well, that's good... because you're a good-natured guy... and I'm afraid Hero (Yuusha) is going to say he's your childhood friend too. Be sure not to tell anyone except those involved, and try your best not to forget," Bauer-sama warned.

And then I was returned to the world once again.

Goddess Ishtas's POV

I was always alone.

I've been alone for a terrible long time.

But after waiting 500 years, my beloved husband finally appeared by my side.

I was so happy.

So, using my godly powers, I always kept an eye on Ceres.

No matter how much I watched him, I never grew tired of it.

And as a long-time bachelor, I've done some radical things that make me blush...

I've even made sexy lingerie and bathrooms in anticipation of 500 years from now.

But it feels empty.

I still have to wait 500 years...

And I know Ceres really loves those children.

I don't know if Ceres will be able to smile when he loses them.

He may become sad and lose that gentle smile he always has.

I thought about it a lot, and their relationship... seems so enjoyable.

So instead of taking Ceres for myself, I should try to become a part of their circle....

My divine world would surely become much livelier... but it's definitely better than being alone.

But… Bauer really is a tricky racoon.

He probably knows my true intentions, but he's still acting like didn't know anything.

Dragons are truly difficult to understand.
