Village Head's Debauchery

Chapter 1242 A Lively Family

Chapter 1242  A Lively Family

Just as they were about to dig for more information, the Will of the Divine Mysteries vanished.

Orion's sighed in defeat. He had wanted to calm the situation and find an opportunity to ask the Will of the Divine Mysteries what it meant, but now he would have to wait until the next time they encountered one another. However, he didn't know when that would be.

At that moment, the women had regained their senses and checked their bodies. They swept their gazes past the shocking sight of cosmic space surrounding them, now filled with cosmic life and the divine beings present. Their gazes landed on Orion, who was carrying Grace in his arms, with Sylvalis using his head as support to lay her hand and chin on.

Sensing the women's multiple intense gazes, radiating an overbearing divine power, Sylvalis distanced herself from Orion.

Grace soared over to Aurora's position, also distancing herself as she sensed the impending doom.

Isadora also distanced herself, arriving beside Aurora and the weeping Ilse.

The women vanished from their positions, reappearing before Orion and wrapping their arms around him.

"Husband, I did it! I'm now a goddess!"

"Darling, I wish you could have seen my ascent. I gave it everything, and now, I'm a genuine goddess!"

"Hubby…"

Orion spread his arms wide and welcomed them one by one. They surrounded him from all angles, embracing him tightly. If they hadn't been hovering in cosmic space, protected by General Reynold's barrier, but instead on the ground, he might have collapsed under the immense pressure surrounding him.

"Brother, I'm a goddess now! Can you believe it? I haven't even utilised my full potential yet. How amazing do you think I'll be in the future?" Gina said with a wide smile, her head pressed against Orion's chest, sharing the space with Reena.

"Yes, I can believe it. I watched your ascension, after all. I'm sure you'll be amazing. However, this is uncharted territory, so we'll need to be much more careful," Orion responded.

"I can feel my Devourer's Heart beating intensely in my chest. I can't wait to test my gift later. Now that I'm a true goddess, I promise to go easier on you," Fifi said, kissing him on the cheek, her head resting on his shoulder from behind, a soft smile on her lips.

"I can feel my Devourer's Heart beating intensely in my chest. I can't wait to test my gift later. Now that I'm a true goddess, I promise to go easier on you," Fifi said, kissing him on the cheek, her head resting on his shoulder from behind, a soft smile on her lips.

She felt immense happiness rising within her chest, knowing she finally had the strength to protect Orion once more. She had been worried that she wouldn't be able to keep up with his astounding growth, but now there was no need for her to worry.

With her current strength and the two Divine Mandates she had received from both the new Mysteries and the Divine Mysteries, anyone wanting to challenge her beloved would have to go through her first.

"I admit you've grown much stronger, but don't underestimate me. Your darling isn't someone who can be easily handled," Orion responded, turning his head to give Fifi a kiss on her lips.

"We'll see about that later," Fifi replied, her eyes turning hazy.

However, everyone present could tell she wasn't talking about a sparring session any longer but a 'special kind of battle.'

"I also have the strength to protect you now and won't have to watch you enter dangerous places alone. Now that we're all capable, promise me that even if you can handle it alone, you'll bring at least some of us along," Celeste said, nestled between Fiona and Reena.

Though she wasn't entirely sure of her current power, if she utilised everything she had—including her Divine Mandates—she was confident she could match Aurora or, at the very least, come out victorious.

Celeste didn't dare make the same claim about Ilse, as that would have been too boastful.

She could have simply asked Orion to bring her along on his outings, and she was sure he would agree. However, with Orion's household growing larger, she decided it was best to continue her responsibilities in maintaining the family's structure.

She could always take a vacation later and explore the outside world with Orion.

"I agree," Sura responded.

"I also agree," Ursa nodded.

"Me too. I'm curious to see how much my gift has developed," Lyra added, weaving her hair toward Orion. She immediately felt a hand grab it, forcing her to stop. Looking in that direction, she saw Saria was the culprit.

Lyra responded with a snort but didn't relent.

The rest of the women nodded in agreement with Celeste's words.

"I promise," Orion said, "but that'll be for later. For now, you all are pregnant, and we need to focus on our unborn children, and taking them into dangerous areas isn't a good idea."

'Of course, it depends on how dangerous the area is,' He thought, but he kept that part to himself. He knew if he said it out loud and an argument started, he would lose instantly, so he wisely decided to leave that battle for another day.

"How about me? I feel stronger, look younger, and look much more beautiful!" Derry said, her tone excited. Her skin was now fairer, radiant, and flawless, and she appeared half the age she once was.

Anyone who saw her, unless they knew her well, would think she was her own daughter. All the wrinkles had vanished from her body.

Nevertheless, Derry now exuded a mature charm, similar to Aerialia, Aurora, and Ilse, who, despite their youthful appearances, made it clear that they were far older than they seemed. Of course, with someone like Derry, it would be slightly tricky for anyone unfamiliar with her mischievous nature to notice this maturity.

"It's not just you! All of us look younger and more beautiful than we did before our ascension," Celia interjected, playfully pinching Derry's waist to leave them out of the conversation.

Derry scowled at her in annoyance.

"If anyone looks more beautiful and younger, it has to be me. We all know I'm right," Ingrid said, a smirk forming on her cold expression. Her aura had not diminished but intensified, highlighting her features even more.

"The village's concept of beauty didn't apply to any of us even before. Now, we're all goddesses. But if you're still looking for the most beautiful, that would be Reena. So try again," Derry retorted sharply.

Ingrid glanced at Reena, who was paying no attention to the conversation, enjoying the comfort of Orion's chest.

Ingrid clicked her tongue in displeasure, choosing to remain silent.

"AHEM! After Reena, I'm sure we can agree it's me," Vivian chimed in confidently.

"Tsk, tsk! It's really annoying to see you oldies arguing over an obvious answer," Crystalia interrupted.

"After Aurora and Reena, it's me, then Tala, then Maya, Gina, Ursa, Sura, Merida, Breezeflutter, Isadora, my mother, Anara, Saria, Dariya, Malaia, Greta, Fiona, Celeste, and Shani. That's the top twenty, and you guys aren't even in it," Crystalia said, eliciting glares from every direction.

"You might have become a goddess, but nothing about your attitude reflects it. Maybe you should meet with Aurora after this so she can teach you about beauty and divinity because you're ruining it," she added, holding their fiery gazes without backing down.

Selene sighed at her daughter's words, wondering why she had chosen to stir things up at such a delicate time. Still, she understood that, after their ascent to divinity, focusing on beauty seemed shallow, though she could see the conversation from their perspectives.

Ayla, Saria, and Anara chuckled, finding the argument amusing. The divine aura surrounding them grew more intense by the second.

"It's okay! You're all beautiful in your own way to me, and you all look more radiant than ever," Orion said loudly.

"Oh? Then tell me, husband, am I beautiful—" Vivian began, but sensing impending doom, Orion quickly moved to interrupt her. Fortunately, someone else was faster.

Suddenly, a shimmering, colourful rainbow dust fell upon the women, shrinking them instantly to pixie size.

Above them were Maeve, Willow, Breezeflutter, and Whisperwing, who had used their racial skill, Dust Morphosis, releasing the rainbow-like dust that caused the women to shrink.

They swiftly rushed down towards Orion, transforming into human size and kissing him on the lips individually before embracing him.

"We thought the Pixie race would never have another divine being to look after them after Aegis of the Deity's death. But you've proven us all wrong, helping us become goddesses in the most extraordinary manner that even the divines are shocked. Thank you, darling. I'll never forget today," Maeve said softly.

"Don't mention it. I'm your husband, after all. The least I can do is make you feel like a goddess and turn you into one," Orion replied with a broad, radiant smile, returning the embrace.

With Maeve voicing their shared thoughts, the others silently embraced him, blushing profusely. Breezeflutter nearly passed out as a myriad of emotions flowed through them.

"You always know how to use your words. And remember, you still haven't answered my question. Husband, am I beautiful?" Willow said, calming her racing heartbeat.

Before Orion could respond, the rest of the women instinctively released their divine power and returned to their regular sizes. Then, they went back to Orion to continue their embrace.
