‘………?’

A dark space. He could hear a strange buzzing sound.

[Hey, Hermes! Why did you bring him here in this condition?!]

[You said to bring him quickly… Ow! Hey, why did you hit me?! I did my best to be as fast as I could!]

[Ugh! Can’t believe I have to deal with you both!]

The voices were vaguely familiar. He could vaguely see several figures.

[Pfft! A few scratches like that is nothing, just spit on them and they’ll be fine!]

[…No, right? You’re not actually going to spit on him, right?]

[? What else can I do?]

“…”

Ah, that red hair…

The hair that fell a little above the waist.

[……She’s not just a musclehead anymore, she’s just pure muscle now.]

[What?! Did you just call me a musclehead?!]

[I didn’t say that… ]

[Hmm… hmph. Even if you compliment me I’m not going to change my mind about you!]

[Ah, my head hurts.]

“Ma… Mars…?”

She looked like Mars. She was similar, and I couldn’t shake that feeling.

[…Hey, are you awake?]

“Mar…s…”

It was Mars. That voice and way of speaking. It was Mars, through and through.

“Heh…”

[What’s with that creepy smile?]

He didn’t know why, but he was happy. He smiled brightly at Mars.

“Th…ank you…!”

[…]

Thank you for the charm.

And also… He wanted to say this.

“I…love you…! Hiii….!”

“[……….Hmm]”

Mars made a strange sound.

[Ares, do not start thinking about it.]

[What now? Is there something you need to stop? Did you get jealous?]

[He’s a human and a man. Are you experiencing homosexual urges all of a sudden?]

[What?! Are you crazy?]

Two voices were bickering. He could also recognize the purple hair, and the size of the bust. ‘That’s Minerva!’ Why was she here?

When I was staring at the both of them, Minerva said,

[Why would a man be held by another man?]

[Haa… thank god you’re the only sane one here!]

[…The only reason I’m sane is because I’m the ‘female’ here, you are lucky.]

“…”

Minerva shut her mouth. Then, Mars approached him.

[So, you want to be held by me, huh?]

“…Yeah…”

[Once is enough, right?]

“…”

No. Rather than one…

“Until I die….”

[Huh?]

“Until I can get you pregnant!”

[…This guy is something else.]

Mars grinned, flicking his forehead with her finger.

[If you weren’t a hero who accomplished such great feats, your head would have exploded just now.]

He was a hero who accomplished great feats, he should be given a proper reward.

“Oh…!”

He felt a chill. Mars sat on his chest.

[I’ll give you an unforgettable night— *WHACK!!* Aaack!!!]

[You! How are you always like this when I look away?!]

Someone that looked similar to Juno—no, that was probably Juno— She was hitting Mars on the back. She looked more aggressive than before. She had changed her image.
‘Did she go through puberty’ ?

[Oh, mother! What did I do wrong?!]

[You! Why do you always try to sleep with other people when someone is dying?! You’re a man who became a woman! At least my husband didn’t try to sleep with others, even if he had weird fetishes!!]

[How can you be so sure?]

[…Right?]

[………….]

‘This is so fun’, He chuckled. It was like watching a sitcom. As he was laughing, he heard the tap-tap sound of high heels.

[Everyone shut up. You got what you wanted, right?]

“Huh?”

That tone…

[Chrono, my child. You rejected me but you still managed to overcome the trials I gave you.]

The process was a mess, but he still achieved what Chronos had intended.

[You will not face such trials again. And do not make me test you.]

“…Huh?”

Was this what he was hearing? He felt like slapping him. He was already half-dead. What was he afraid of? He forced himself to move and turn towards Chronos.

*Sigh*

[I will keep my promise. It is my blood, my flesh, so I will give you a companion who will always be by your side.]

Chronos cut her fingertip, and a small white horse with white wings sprang forth from the blood on the floor.

[Do not worry about the wounds. My power will heal you. All wounds will disappear before me.]

So that child would be his. His apostle.

[So you will always praise me]

Praise her. Worship her.

[And you will be saved]

“…Ah.”

He had heard that somewhere before. Where? Ah, right, that cult.

“Cult….”

[Cult? A new heaven and a new earth? What a wonderful idea]

“You psycho….”

[…]

“You’re like a damn coffee addict….”

She had said she was interested! She had said she liked him! Why did she change her tune again?

[…]

[…]

[…Huff…]

[Is that the result of his actions?]

“…Get lost, all of you!”

Chronos trembled and slammed her foot down on the ground.

[All of you!]
[Just get the hell out of hereeeeeeeeeeee!!!!]

—*Thud*

“Ugh!… Ugh… Ugh…?”

Pain. Suffering. He felt a sharp pain, and his vision went black.

“…..Huh?”

His mind slowly came back. His body felt heavy, but his body was always heavy. He just hadn’t realized it before. ‘This isn’t too bad…’ He could feel the pain, but he could also think. He could look around. He tried to move, but he quickly realized that he couldn’t.

“I’m alive…”

He took a deep breath. He finally had the time to take a look around.

“This must be a hospital room, right?”

It wasn’t the infirmary. You couldn’t treat wounds like this in the infirmary. The room was large. There was a refrigerator, and a TV. This hospital was way better. ‘They spent a lot of money!’ He lay still, trying to process his thoughts. Then, he saw a remote control nearby.

“…Oh, shit!”

He couldn’t reach it. His hands were also bandaged. He tried to stretch his arm, but he couldn’t even lift it.

“Haaaa…!”

Why did this have to happen to him? If he didn’t want it, he should’ve just taken it away. Having something he couldn’t use was even more infuriating.

“Life’s a bitch.”

He was angry. He was annoyed. He was frustrated. He was sad.

‘Ugh, I feel like crying!’ He was not supposed to cry. It was just… a lot. Tears fell from his eyes.

“Ugh… sob…!”

Why was he crying? Why? ‘Are the meds messing with me?’ Was it the IV that was making him so emotional? Or was he just too exhausted? He couldn’t stop the tears. The pillow was starting to get soaked.

“Ugh…. shit! I’m also hungry!”

He was hungry. He was sad. He couldn’t watch TV, he was so sad.

“…Shit!”

He wanted to have sex but he couldn’t.
He was so sad, he was crying out loud now.

“Waaah…”

He lay like a corpse, sobbing.

While sobbing, he noticed something.

“…Huh?”

“…”

A blonde girl was sitting on a chair near the bed.

She was looking at him, silently, and asked,

“Papa?”

“No.”

He didn’t have a daughter like her.

“Master?”

“No.”

He didn’t participate in any Holy Grail War.

“My lord?”

“Are you trying to kill me with embarrassment?”

He didn’t have that kind of fetish.

“Oppa?”

“I’d rather you just use that name.”

They had reached a compromise.
The blonde girl walked toward him,

“Oppa, I love you.”

“…?”

“I love you.”

“…”

Her tone was monotonous, like a machine. Then she kissed him. ‘No, that’s not right!’

“Hey!”

“…??”

She tilted her head, as if asking why he rejected her. Who were you, and why were you trying to kiss him?

“Did you escape from a mental hospital?”

“Uh… from over there.”

“…You came from upstairs?”

She pointed at the ceiling. Maybe there was a mental ward upstairs. ‘She’s so young…’ She seemed a bit unhinged.

“Hey, don’t do anything. Just stay there. The nurse will come soon, so just ask her to take you back, okay?”

“…Okay.”

She clasped her hands together and said,

“Lord Chronos.”

“…What?”

Chronos? What did he have to do with—?

“…Oh.”

A status window appeared. He looked at the girl with surprise.

“Trait: Virtuous Wife. Pregnancy control available.”

“…Wait a second!”

He felt uneasy. He tried to cover the girl’s mouth, but he couldn’t. She raised her dress and asked,

“Want to do it?”

“No.”

What was that?

“Trait: Virtuous Wife. Humidity control available.”

“…”

He lay back down on the bed. This was all a dream. He closed his eyes, trying to escape.

Meanwhile,

“Trait: Virtuous Wife. ‘Oppa’’s dissatisfaction detection, strip dance for pleasure—”

“—Stop it.”

He was almost socially assassinated. Please, just stop. Stay where you are.

Stay…!
