Chapter 191: Confession

We turned to leave the throne room, but a sudden movement near the stygian iron throne made us pause.

Persephone hadn’t set the silver mirror down. Instead, she sat down directly on Hades’ dark throne.

Without a single second of hesitation, she reached up and pulled down the top of her dark silk gown, exposing her lush, bare bust to the cold air. Her manicured fingers slid straight beneath her heavy skirt, slipping between her thighs.

Gasp—!

A sharp, breathless moan echoed through the vast, empty hall.

Persephone stared intently at the glowing mirror resting on her lap, where the explicit video of me ruthlessly fucking her was still playing on loop, and began to furiously masturbate right there on her husband’s throne. Her hips bucked subtly against the dark cushions, her knuckles moving in a fast, frantic rhythm.

"Seth..." Persephone whimpered out loud, her head resting back against the iron dragon-bones as her face flushed a dark, fiery crimson. "Ah... Seth... fuck me... fill me up... split me open just like that..."

I stood there invisible, my jaw slightly open. I had seen plenty of wild things since awakening my Origin soul, but watching an ancient Greek goddess unabashedly touch herself on her husband’s throne while calling out my name was definitely a brand-new experience.

Unlike humans, divine arousal carried a physical weight. Tiny, glittering motes of pale pink nether-light flickered out from her skin with every ragged breath she took, reacting to her rising internal temperature.

Beside me, Paige had a wide, thoroughly amused smile on her face. She raised her hand, projecting a small, invisible optical lens right in front of her eyes.

[Fufufu~] Paige’s voice chimed inside my mind, practically sparkling with glee. [Recording in full system resolution! This goes straight into our private archives, Host!]

I glanced back toward the heavy iron doors of the private bathroom, where the faint, muffled sounds of Hades’ digestive nightmare were still echoing.

’Hey, Paige,’ I murmured mentally. ’Isn’t she worried about Hades walking out and catching her doing this?’

Paige gave a casual shrug, her nine fluffy white fox tails swishing lazily behind her silk kimono. [Not in the slightest, Seth. Persephone never loved Hades. He kidnapped her from Demeter in ancient times and forced her into this realm. As far as she’s concerned, he’s just a nuisance she’s forced to live with.]

’So even if he walks out and sees her touching herself to a video of me?’

[What’s he going to do? Torture her? Sentence her to the nether vaults?] Paige scoffed playfully. [She’s been living in the Underworld for millennia. She’s long past caring about his temper. Honestly, it probably turns her on even more knowing it would drive him insane.]

I narrowed my eyes slightly, looking back toward the bathroom doors. ’Hades really deserves every single piece of torture Lucifer is going to give him.’

I took one last look at Persephone, who was now squirming frantically on the iron seat, her moans turning raspy and desperate.

’Gotta admit though...’ I chuckled dryly, ’...she’s got incredible technique.’

[Fufufu~ Practice makes perfect, Host! Now, let me open the door before she finishes!] Paige giggled.

We stepped back through the dimensional threshold, leaving the gloomy Underworld behind, and climbed back into the open-top convertible.

Instead of heading straight home, I started the engine and brought the car into a smooth cruise through the starry expanse of the main Greek universe. I needed a little time to clear my head after everything we had just witnessed.

The Greek universe was vast and bright. As we drove along an invisible path of spatial mana, we passed glowing cosmic nebulae shaped like winged horses, ancient golden constellations, and distant planetary arenas where demigods tested their martial skills.

In the far distance, Mount Olympus shone like a giant golden crown suspended in the sky, illuminated by divine fires and floating gardens.

"You know," I said, resting my right arm over the car door as the cosmic wind blew through my hair, "I could probably drop by Mount Olympus right now and see what Athena or Artemis look like up close."

Paige leaned back in the passenger seat, resting her cheek against her palm while her dark eyes sparkled behind her silver reading glasses. "Oho? Is my Host planning on adding the Goddess of Wisdom and the Huntress to his growing collection?"

"Just curious," I chuckled, turning the steering wheel smoothly around a drifting asteroid. "Though doing everything on day one would ruin the fun. I want to save some places to explore when I bring Yerin, Yoona, and Val on a real vacation too."

"Wise decision," Paige agreed, her fluffy fox ears twitching playfully. "Besides, if you hit Mount Olympus today, Zeus would probably try to challenge you to a drinking contest, and we both know you’d end up making him drink through his nose."

We laughed together, the light, easy banter flowing between us naturally. As we cruised past cosmic clouds of blue and purple stardust, Paige kept up her usual energetic commentary, mixing genuine facts about the Greek pantheon with her shameless, horny jokes.

"You know, Seth," Paige purred, her nine tails swishing over the leather upholstery, "if you ever recruit Athena into your Sovereign Deck, you could do an entire ’strict librarian and unruly student’ roleplay session! I can generate the glasses and the pencil skirt for her!"

I rolled my eyes, smiling dryly. "You really have a roleplay scenario ready for every single woman in existence, don’t you?"

"It’s my primary administrative duty!" Paige claimed proudly, fluffing out her tails.

As the car glided into a quiet, peaceful stretch of open space illuminated by a distant blue giant star, I looked over at Paige sitting in the passenger seat.

Her mature, gorgeous face, her long silk kimono, her dark seductive eyes, and the soft, fluffy white tails fanning out behind her... she looked absolutely stunning.

A spontaneous desire hit me.

I brought the car to a slow cruise, keeping one hand steady on the steering wheel, and looked at her with a warm, genuine smirk.

"Hey, Paige," I called out softly.

"Hmm?" Paige turned her head, her vertical golden pupils blinking in curiosity. "What’s on your mind, Host?"

"Come sit on my lap while I drive," I said simply.

Paige froze for a second. Her dark eyes widened slightly, her fox ears perking straight up.

"Sit... on your lap?" she repeated, a sudden, bright pink flush spreading across her fair cheeks.

"Yeah," I grinned, tapping my left thigh. "I’ve always wanted to drive a fast car through space with a gorgeous woman sitting in my lap. Since we’re on a unique date, you’re fulfilling that item on my bucket list."

Paige’s initial surprise vanished in an instant, replaced by a radiant, deeply happy smile.

[Fufufu~ Delivering top-tier bucket list wish fulfillment!] Paige squealed softly.

She slid smoothly out of the passenger seat, shifting her voluptuous frame directly onto my lap. She sat sideways across my thighs, her dark silk kimono parting slightly to reveal a smooth length of her leg, while her nine fluffy white fox tails wrapped comfortably around my waist and chest like a warm, luxurious blanket.

I wrapped my left arm around her narrow waist, pulling her soft body flush against my chest while keeping my right hand on the steering wheel.

Her intoxicating scent, a blend of fresh lotus and warm cosmic mana, filled my nose. The physical sensation of her soft weight resting against me in zero gravity felt incredible.

"How’s this posture, driver?" Paige purred, her voice dropping into a soft, sultry register as her arms slid naturally around my neck.

"Perfect," I smiled, steering the car around a bend of sparkling starlight.

We drove through the cosmos like that for a long time.

Paige rested her head against my collarbone, her fluffy white ears brushing lightly beneath my chin whenever she moved. We talked about everything and nothing, laughing about our past experiences, teasing each other about the future, and simply enjoying the quiet warmth of holding each other in the middle of the stars.

At one point, as the car passed through a brilliant curtain of golden stellar dust, Paige leaned up. Her dark eyes locked onto mine, filled with a deep, uninhibited affection.

She didn’t make a dirty joke or a witty comment. She simply leaned in and pressed her soft, full lips directly against mine.

I deepened the kiss smoothly, my left hand cupping the back of her waist while bringing the car to a gentle halt in the middle of the golden light. Her tongue met mine in a warm, sweet, and lingering friction that made my heart swell. Her nine fluffy tails wrapped tighter around my back, holding me close as if she never wanted to let go.

When we finally parted, her breath was fanning warm against my skin, her cheeks flushed a fiery, beautiful crimson.

"Data point recorded," Paige whispered softly, a breathtaking smile curving her lips. "Driving while kissing yields a one-hundred percent satisfaction rating."

I chuckled warmly, pressing a soft kiss onto her forehead. "Told you it was a good idea."

After spending another hour exploring the quiet outer boundaries of the Greek universe, it was finally time to head back.

I turned the car around, accelerating toward the spatial boundary connecting to our home universe. Paige raised her hand, snapping her fingers to open a clean, stable dimensional corridor.

The convertible glided smoothly through the glowing portal, leaving the Greek universe behind and emerging back into the familiar, quiet space of our own realm.

I brought the car to a complete stop, parking it on a stable spatial platform hovering just outside Earth’s orbital layer.

The cosmic road trip was officially over.

Paige was still sitting in my lap, her dark silk kimono draped over my legs, her nine fluffy tails resting around my shoulders. The quiet void of space stretched out around us, illuminated by the distant blue marble of Earth floating below.

I looked down into her eyes.

The sarcastic, chaotic system persona was completely quiet now. She was simply looking up at me, her golden pupils soft, her hands resting gently against my chest.

I let out a quiet, relaxed laugh, shaking my head with a warm smile.

"You know, Paige..." I spoke softly, my fingers running gently through her long hair, "...we’ve been together since the very beginning. You know every single thought in my head, you share my soul, and we don’t have a single secret between us. We’re closer than anyone else in existence."

I leaned down slightly, looking straight into her dark eyes. "So... is there really any need for me to spell things out?"

Paige looked at me for two seconds. A small, sweet giggle escaped her lips, and she reached up, pressing a quick, passionate kiss against my lips.

She pulled back slightly, her dark eyes sparkling with a playful, yet deeply earnest glint as her fox ears twitched.

"Normally, no, Host," Paige whispered softly, her thumb tracing my jawline. "But even a system companion who encompasses reality... still wants to hear a proper, sincere confession from the man she loves."

I looked into her eyes, my expression turning completely earnest, genuine, and unshakeable.

"Paige," I said clearly, my voice steady in the quiet void of space. "Will you be my wife?"

The question hung in the air, simple, clear, and filled with absolute sincerity.

Paige froze.

Her vertical golden pupils expanded into wide, perfectly round circles. The breath caught in her throat, and for the first time since I met her, a bright, helpless wave of emotional tears welled up at the corners of her eyes.

The next second, a radiant, mind-blowingly beautiful smile broke across her face, a smile brighter than any star in the galaxy.

"YES!" Paige squealed softly, throwing her arms tightly around my neck and pulling me down into a fierce, passionate, and completely uninhibited kiss.

Her soft lips pressed against mine with everything she had, her tongue tangling with mine in a deep, fiery rhythm that sent a wave of electric heat straight through my soul. Her nine fluffy white tails wrapped wildly around my waist, squeezing me tight against her body as she laughed and cried against my mouth.

"Yes, Seth! Yes!" Paige giggled breathlessly against my lips as we finally parted for air, her face burning crimson, her eyes shining with pure, unadulterated happiness. "I will happily, proudly be your wife!"

I held her tight in my arms, pulling her flush against my chest as a deep, satisfied grin spread across my face.

Floating in the middle of the cosmos with my system wife in my arms, I knew that no matter what crazy adventures, ancient pantheons, or divine wars awaited us in the future... we were going to conquer it all together.
