PHASE 23 - SEDUCTIVE GODDESSES MADE IT HARD FOR THE ENEMIES

When the Fake Outsider resumed the flow of time, somebody made her appearance.

A woman with divine aura landed beside Lord Freya. She has long strawberry-blonde hair twirled on her body, making a beautiful gown to cover her gargantuan breast and bulky buttocks. She’s also wearing heeled boots that have blades on its rear. She has the appearance and presence of the Goddess of Beauty I once knew; Venus.

“I got to say, these Fake Gods are disgustingly ugly.” Venus cringed.

“Don’t let your guard down, Venus.” Freya readied her revolvers which morphed to submachine guns. “They are more powerful than we thought.”

Macho Steel skipped beside me and shouted to all the Gate Guardians nearby our battle tactics. “Change in tactics! Everyone in the infiltration team, support Lord Venus and Lord Freya!”

“Right!” We Gate Guardians shouted. Then, they proceeded to mow down the herds of enemies with their swords, axes, spears, and even shields.

I can see that all the men are pumped up. It’s just natural because they will be serving two goddesses of beauty. Those two goddesses have some sort of magical charismatic ability that makes gentlemen hit hard.

“!!!”

Cthulhu and Hastur’s red eyes glowed, and lasers started to spread. The ground that got hit by the lasers exploded with flames. Freya and Venus jumped out of the way so that they can avoid being burnt by those bloody disco lights.

“!!!” Macho Steel spun and charged like a gigantic wind drill, aiming for Cthulhu.

Cthulhu’s hair tentacles elongated and clashed with the spinning macho man in midair. Inch by inch, his tendrils were cut down to small takoyaki pieces.

“!!!” Freya took the opportunity to waltz in close and hit Cthulhu with her arm chops, swift kicks, and gun smacks. The octopus god used his dragon arms to block those short-ranged attacks.

“!!!” I stabbed my sword, and a crimson tornado drill surged towards the enemy. My relentless spell shredded Cthulhu’s limbs which opened up wounds throughout his body.

“Get back!” Freya cried as she raised her hand. Wind energy was absorbed by her fingers and then she swiped it to open a gigantic Gate above the tentacle god. “!!!”

A missile came out from the magical portal and crashed towards Cthulhu. The area of impact became red for a short moment, and then a blinding flash of light exploded!

A mushroom cloud that has the size of a simple house emerged from where Cthulhu was standing. It was a mini-nuclear missile, but the octopus god only lost his right arm and half of his face. He also had his ribcage and burnt heart open. Cthulhu’s dark flesh started to wiggle, indicating that he will regenerate soon.

I must seize this opportunity to grab the Fake God Core! I jumped forward and ran towards it while my hand is coated with dark prana.

“!!!”

I pressed my claws on his chest, and forcibly drew a gray Quintessence orb. Finally, I got the first Fake God Core!

“N-Nooooo!!!” The Cursed Guardian melted as soon as the Fake God Core was out of his heart.

That’s so weird. Usually, a person will still survive if God's Core is taken away from his heart. But that Cursed Guardian I ‘accidentally’ killed feels like he’s depending on the Fake God Core as the source of his life.

“Homunculus. They are artificial but imperfect Cursed Guardians that feeds on the life force of that Fake God Core.” Freya said. That cleared the ambiguity in my head.

Meanwhile, Venus is taking her time on fighting Hastur. The god in the yellow cloak unleashed tentacles on his hands to slice and pierce the Goddess of Beauty, but Venus commanded her hair to slap away those disgusting tendrils.

Hastur rushed forward, trying to defeat Venus in closed-range combat. He relentlessly whipped his tentacles, but the goddess just tumbled and skated away with her bladed boots.

“!!!” Venus jumped backward and then stood on her hands. She spread her legs and the blades on her boot expanded as she turned like a fidget spinner.

“Gwahwahwahwahwahwah!” Hastur cried continuously as he tried desperately to block the attack with his tentacle hands. But those soft worm-like tendrils got ripped to shreds in no time at all upon touching Venus' bladed feet.

Suddenly, my eyes gave me a prediction. I immediately advised Venus to “Jump back!”. I’m glad that she complied.

“!!!”

The yellow symbol on Hastur’s forehead glowed goldenly. Anybody who has seen the sign directly will have his mind-controlled and heart cursed. Thankfully, nobody is on the effective range of the spell. Venus is already dozens of meters away from him.

“!!!” I made a silver-streak slash ripping Hastur’s neck. Black blood gushed out.

“!!!” Venus’ rapunzel hair dug underground, to be seen later on Hastur’s feet. It constricted the yellow king’s arms and legs, making him open for any attack.

This is my chance! I step in forward as I convert my right hand with void energy!

“!!!”

Just like the vessel of Cthulhu, Hastur’s flesh melted like disgusting burnt cheese upon having the Fake God Core robbed from his heart.

“Good work!” Venus said as she held my hand.

“You’re so powerful, Aeternos!” Freya praised me as she held my biceps.

Being flattered by two goddesses is an achievement a man is supposed to be dreaming. Yeah, I’m being overwhelmed from the view of their cleavages. In fact, I’m blushing right now. Good thing my face is blurred.

I want to wrap my hands around these beautiful women and proclaim my victory as the king, but I just remembered that these goddesses; Freya and Venus are the mothers of my friends. I don’t want to hit on middle-aged married women. I don’t want to cheat behind Tiara’s back.

I materialized the two Fake God Cores, which levitated above my hand. And then, I shouted.

“Now bring me Chronos!”

Everything became black and white as time stopped. The Outsider Yohan appeared in front of me with a smile. He happily took the Fake God Cores away from my hand like some kind of kid who just got offered with two limited-edition candy pops.

“Thanks for this!” Yohan laughed. “And oh, Chronos is on the top floor of that Research Facility building.”

The Research Facility building he’s talking about is a ten-story building fifty meters away from me. It’s being guarded the most by Cursed Guardians, so sneaking is not possible. We will need to wipe out those jabronis fast.

“Be careful. Chronos is one of the most powerful Cursed Guardian as of this time.” The Fake Outsider warned before disappearing like a bubble.

Time resumed its flow.

“Chronos is on the highest floor of that building,” I said to the goddesses. “I need to reach him.”

Venus and Freya looked upwards, then downwards to the foot of the building. There are hundreds of Cursed Guardians guarding the perimeter. Fighting nuisances consumes time, and I’ll be out of prana before I can reach Chronos.

I need my allies to eliminate the enemies as I rush towards my goal.

“Don’t worry~” Freya made an assuring smile at me as she took a step forward.

“We can clear the way for you~” Venus made the same sweet expression. She also walked until she is standing side-by-side with Goddess Freya.

The two goddesses walked in front of the endless platoon of enemies, unfazed and confident that they can beat them all. These women even made a high-five at each other, and then faced the enemies with an evil grin.

“Please don’t tell our husbands that we’re going to do this,” Freya said.

“Anyone who spreads the news will have their neck cut clean,” Venus warned.

“Y-Yes! Ma’am, yes ma’am!” The male Gate Guardians, including Macho Steel, replied. Meanwhile, I’m just dumbstruck. I already know what they are planning to do.

Goddess Freya and Venus held their chest, channeling all the prana they will use in their ‘most powerful’ spell. Meanwhile, the hordes of Cursed Guardians opened their eyes wide, fully alert on what the Goddesses are plotting.

And then…

“!!!” The goddesses shouted as they momentarily stripped and flashed their naked bodies. A blinding flash of light brightened the area to white.

And just like that, all the male Cursed Guardians fall lifeless on the floor, their eyes and nose oozing with black blood.

My goodness, these goddesses are worse than cheaters.

They are- may Jesus forgive me for uttering this word- THOTS.
