BXBX NOVEL Chapter 127
—–
In the morning, we were already halfway through the road back to the Goblin Village. I had woken up with the intention of having breakfast, but after their night shift, everyone came back to me to sleep at my side. However, Lucifer wasn’t as bold as these two girls, as he slept rather separated from me. At this point, I wouldn’t have minded if he tried to get closer, sheesh! No need to be so rude to the girl you love so much! Fufu…
Anyways, I ended up sleeping with them for a few more hours until we all woke up around 10 AM, the twins were getting hungry, and they rushed into this caravan to ask me for breakfast.
“Maria!”
“Nee-sama!”
Takeshi and Laura, our two adorable children- I mean, our new companions came rushing towards me, and the two adorable little kids jumped over my torso. I felt like I would have been crushed if I wasn’t a ghost… but as a ghost, it wasn’t so bad.
“Ugh… Kids, you don’t have to jump on me every morning, you know?” I sighed
“Hehe, but you’re a ghost, so it doesn’t matter, right?” Said Takeshi.
“Sorry, but we like to hug you.” Said Laura while nodding.
“Y-You do? Why so much?” I asked.
“I don’t know exactly why, but it feels good to hug you, nee-sama,” Said Takeshi.
“You’re fluffy and comfortable to hug,” Said Laura.
The two kids hugged my torso, and I realized they were also rubbing their faces over my chest. Ah, I see, that’s why I am so fluffy and comfortable? It’s because of these two massive things.
“I think you kids are a bit perverted… But okay, let’s have breakfast already. I am also starving!” I said.
“Really? Ah, you got horns!” Shouted Takeshi.
“Yeah, you got horns… what is that about?” Asked Laura.
“Well, well, well, did you finally realize? I had evolved, of course! Monsters like me evolve frequently! After reaching level 40, I evolved and became a glorious Gorgon!” I said.
“G-Gorgon?!” Asked Laura.
“What’s that?” Wondered Takeshi.
Laura and Takeshi are from another world like me, but Takeshi was a kid, so maybe he didn’t know what a Gorgon was. However, Laura kind of knew.
“That name is like that one Greek creature… or character… like a snake or something? Snake woman?” She asked.
“Pin pon! Indeed, it is like that one woman… Erm, like Medusa’s sister or whatever. Anyways, look, snakes!” I said as I waved my hand and a dozen ghost snakes came out of my hand while my hair suddenly awakened, and the tips also had snakeheads.
“Hiissss…!”
“Gyshaaa!”
“Grrysshhh…”
They all were very adorably hissing at them! Do you like my act of snake? They obviously don’t have a mind of their own. Each snake is just me acting like one because it would be boring if that wasn’t the case, right? When you find a snake-haired woman, you want to see the snakes in action.
“UWAAAH?!” Cried Takeshi, falling over his butt as the snakes began to entangle his body.
“W-What is this?! GYAH!” Cried Laura, just as scared.
She pretends to be a mature girl, but she is scared of these snakes anyway hehehe.
“Scary, right? Hehe, this is the power of the Gorgon Ghost! I am the master of snakes now!” I laughed.
Fufu, I’ve always wondered if I could be scary, even for those that know me very well. With this, everyone will be surprised. The kids are very scared indeed! There’s something deep inside of me as a ghost telling me to scare people a lot, so I inherently feel good by doing this! But I should stop doing it, or I would just come out as an asshole, more than I am- Ah?
“So cute!”
“T-They’re actually cute….”
However, Takeshi and Laura showed to be more formidable and fearless than I ever thought! Were they actually petting my snakes? Laura even kissed one in the palm of her hand! It’s not that I like it or something… I mean… It kind of feels nice to be petted as a snake… Is living as a pet that relaxing? I wonder…
“W-Wait! Aren’t you scared?” I asked.
“Well, maybe at first! But they’re cute and harmless, that little tongue they stick outside sometimes, and the snout they got and those cute eyes….” Said Laura.
“W-Wait, hold on! Are you actually liking snakes?” I asked.
“T-They’re cute! Can you make as many as you want, nee-sama? Can we keep some as pets?” Asked Takeshi.
“Erm… Well…”
If I tell them these snakes are just me, it will come out as weird because I’ve already made them act as snakes… And being a pet doesn’t sound so bad. I also could protect them if I give them a “familiar,” which is just a clone of me… so fine.
“Sure, you can keep only one though,” I said.
“Yay! I will call mine Grape!” Exclaimed Takeshi.
“I’ll call mine Medusa….” Muttered Laura.
“I-I guess you can do that, go on… name them if you want….” I sighed.
I don’t know how, but I ended up being a part-time pet for these kids, but I can’t say I dislike it. In fact, it sounds like fun! …Wait, I think something is affecting my mind. There’s no way I would ever think like that.
Is having multiple minds affecting my thoughts and diverging them constantly? It feels as if there were multiple me’s within me, but they’re all just me.
Wow, so complicated. Let’s just move on.
I guess I should obey that other me there. No point going around it. Not like anything bad will happen.
Yeah, in fact, it might be useful to multitask and do a lot of stuff at the same time in multiple places and areas. I have not thought about that yet…
Oh, I am right… I could just do that! I can’t wait to get back to the Goblin Village then~
I will spread my snakes when we get there, although I can’t abuse this, or I’ll end up weakening.
