Goddess Wives x Eternal Dungeon

With a loud bang, I placed all the loot on the counter—she inspected the items carefully before sighing. "Wow... It looks like you went through the orc village already... How much are you selling?"

"Everything..."

Her eyes widened before nodding. "Okay... Give me a minute... Hmm... Everything totals 1,564 gold coins—here you go."

Before she could exchange them for gold, I stopped her momentarily, "Please exchange 1,000 into my planet's currency."

She handed me the gold coins—I thanked her and took a seat inside her store, where you could eat light meals like cup noodles and ice creams as long as you bought something.

The pretty sister looked at me momentarily but didn't kick me out; there was something different about her. I felt she was unapproachable in the past and seemed to reject me completely with just her aura.

It was like she wanted to get to know me but couldn't... As if something was stopping her...

Now? I felt she saw me differently but did not approach me, maybe because I was covered in dried orc blood and bruises...

I sighed, eating some ramen, watching adventurers enter her store, exchanging items for cash or buying potions, chatting amongst themselves before leaving.

It was a peaceful sight... I felt happy seeing people living happily... Maybe because I never experienced such peace myself... I ate silently, not wanting to bother anyone, as I counted my earnings.

However, it was amusing how she treated the guys who tried to flirt with her; they were all kicked out without mercy.

Somehow, she reminded me of Asteria and Lupera, making me want to tease her a little, so I waved at her, calling her over with a grin. "Excuse me, miss item shop sister~"

She frowned, walking over to me with a glare, "Yes?"

I grinned at her apron, "Miss item shop sister, you missed a spot~."

Her eye twitched as she wiped her apron, showing me it was clean, "No, I didn't..."

I shook my finger with a grin, pointing at my lips, "No, right here~"

She rubbed her lips, showing me it was clean, "No, I wiped my lips earlier..."

Haha... she is so cute. I never noticed before, but her eyes were silver like the moon, and her nose was small and sharp, but it suited her pretty face, which was neither Asian nor Western. It was like a perfect mixture of all types of humans on my planet that were put together like a collage and became more beautiful than possible.

"Sorry, you were just very beautiful, so I made an excuse to talk to you for a little longer without involving money." I said, with an apologetic smile, "How about I buy you something to drink, the most expensive bottle in your shop, as an apology?"

Her eyes widened in shock; however, she quickly composed herself, giving me a polite customer service smile, "Thank you for your compliment, but I am sorry; I do not accept drinks from customers..."

"I am not a customer now; just call me Rai, not customer." I said, grinning, "Besides, isn't it bad to turn away a paying customer? What if I became one of those guys outside?"

Her smile twitched as she nodded, "Fine... Miss item shop sister will accept your drink... Please wait." She replied, turning around with a huff as I chuckled, watching her walk away.

I watched her prepare the wine, pouring the red liquid into glasses—it danced through the air in a spiral like a blood-red ichor; the texture was light and shimmered in the light as she topped it with strange fruit and a small layer of some juice or liquid bringing them over to me as she sat across from me, glaring.

I grinned, raising my glass with a wink, "To the item shop, sister's beauty."

Her eye twitched, copying me as she spoke coldly, "To the customer's health."

***

Four glasses later, I was on a first-name basis with the item shop sister, who seemed happier after I spent two hundred gold to buy her favour. It seemed food and drink gave her a higher commission.

"You see Rai... The men are the worst; they pretend to be honest and try to touch my ass or tits when I reach for items for them. If thieves didn't exist, I wouldn't have to use special spells to keep items safe! Even the noodles would get stolen in the beginning!"

"Pft... Hahaha... So, why doesn't Sis hire security guards?"

She pouted angrily, finishing the wine with a pout, "They suck... All muscle, no brains, and think they can fuck me in the storage room, perverts!"

I sighed, sipping the wine—it was a little sour but sweet, similar to strawberries and milk with a hint of honey. My head couldn't deny I thought about that image of fucking her in the storage room right now.

"Fufu~ Rai, did you picture fucking me? Such a naughty little boy."

"Me? No way... Big sis Celestia, how could I imagine seeing that nice ass bent over a crate of potions...?"

Celestia giggled, refilling our glasses with a wink, "Big sis, huh? Are you trying to seduce big sis~? Did you know this wine brings out the drinker's honest words and removes all lies?"

I grinned, "Really? So, Celestia, do you like me? Your cheeks are flushed~."

Her pale cheeks flushed red as she giggled, "Rai is handsome; however, big sis only sleeps with one man, and he must be stronger than her. So sorry~."

I finished the wine, enjoying the taste as my head felt a little fuzzy, "Don't worry—It just means I have to beat you one day soon, right? Before anyone else."

My reply was quite cheeky and not completely serious, but Celestia's face froze, not in an unpleasant way, but her lips and eyes seemed to tremble as she was lost for words.

"Are you alright? Celestia?"

Her cheeks flushed a bright red as she gulped, nodding, "Y-yes... Sorry, Rai... Big sis suddenly remembered she has worked..."

I smiled, "Okay, thanks for drinking with me; I'll come again tomorrow, okay?"

Celestia stood up unsteadily before leaning in, kissing my cheek as she whispered, "W-welcome anytime and..."

A long moment passed, and she suddenly vanished as if using a teleportation spell, leaving me alone on the table with all the glasses and food gone, but she hadn't even taken my money yet... So I left the gold coins in the pot on her desk.

The moment I stepped out of the store, a gentle, intoxicated, but lovely voice sounded in my ears like magic.

"I'll wait for you."

"..."

My steps stopped, and I looked back to see that the store was closed, but she sat in the window on the second floor, drinking more of that wine by the bottle... Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were half-closed—she was drunk...

[Celestia POV]

"Rai... Hurry up and become strong... Big sis wants to see you again tomorrow." I murmured, "And then every day after that..."

He finally showed the right desire; I had been watching this body since he was young, the hardships and moments he was in dire straights... I broke the rules to save his life or change fate so he could be free.

The man he killed, I changed the evidence to suggest a natural death to remove his murder charge...

The gang that stabbed and tried to kill him due to debt and a grudge because he left their underground fighting operation...

All of them were killed—I ripped each apart with my hands... and healed Rai using my blood, causing him to become crazed and insane... A mortal cannot accept a god's blood easily...

"I hoped it would awaken you faster... But I caused you as much pain as that silly woman did... Yet she has no idea, and I did it knowingly... Forgive your big sister..."

I sighed, gulping the wine as it burned my throat, "But now... He can become strong and help me defeat that bitch... That arrogant bitch who dares defy me..."

"No... I don't care about that, just come visit, don't forget your sister in the item shop..."

My eyes closed as I fell asleep in the chair, dreaming of Rai defeating me... His hands grasped my breasts tightly as I moaned...

"Ah... Big sis, my peepee is strange... please help me..."

"Hahaha... Rai... Big sis will teach you... Come... Insert it here..."

"Like this...? It feels good; can I move...?"

"Mhm... Fuck big sis... Move it in and out..."

"Ah... Big sis... I'm cumming..."

"Inside is fine... Rai... I love you..."

"Celestia... Mm... Me too..."

"Nngh?! Ahn... Rai... Cumming..."

"Big sis... Ah... Ngh..."

"Mmm... Yes... Fill me with your sperm..."

*Bang!*

"Celestia, why is the shop closed during prime dungeon hours?" A woman's husky voice sounded before. In my drunken stupor, my dream of sex with a naive Rai ended, causing me to shout out in anger. "Who the fuck is disturbing my sleep!?"

A woman appeared in front of me—she wore a black dress with white frills and golden buttons; her hair was pure white, reaching her waist, with grey eyes and pale skin.

I felt terror... the woman was more beautiful than I could imagine... "M-mother... you should be busy with the council... Aha...hahahah...."

Mother narrowed her eyes as I gulped, falling out of my chair with a crash as she sighed, "Do not play games, Celestia... Why have you been interfering with that human's fate?"

"F-for fun...?"

Mother clicked her tongue, "Idiot girl... Do you know what kind of trouble you have caused? We gods must not interfere with mortals' fates unless necessary... ESPECIALLY HIS! "

"Do you understand?! Your interference may cause him to die before completing his task!" Mother yelled, "Furthermore... You have fallen in love with him?! Celestia! Have you forgotten who you are?!"

I trembled in fear, "Forgive Mother... I was wrong; I promise not to interfere again..."

Mother's gaze softened as she sighed, "Celestia... I know you have been lonely... However, you must not meddle... If anything happens, I will come immediately... Now, return to work; you have customers waiting below..."

I nodded, standing up as Mother vanished—I opened the shop, serving adventurers as usual while thinking about Rai...

I wanted to meet him again... To chat with him and drink more wine... But mother forbade me from interfering anymore...

Instead, I swore to watch over him from now on... Waiting for him to grow strong...

Feeling envious of Eternia, Lupera and Asteria seemed to no longer exist in mother's eyes... I want to be set free... Should I have told him to defeat my mother instead...?

Damn it... I'll watch over him and pray for his growth...

Good luck, Rai... Become strong so I can be free... By your side.
