A Cliché Multiverse Story

May the New Year bring you happiness, peace, and prosperity. I wish you a joyous 2022!

The bedroom provided by Freya was nothing short of phenomenal, especially the bed that had been fitted with soft sheets. All the three goddesses sat comfortably on his bed while he rewarded himself by laying on Astraea's lap.

"It ended unexpectedly well," Loki said, taking a sip of the booze she stole from the dining room. "Don't ya think?"

"That was a good ending?" Hephaestus forced a bitter smile. "Asahi will fight against Freya's greatest warriors. They will go to all lengths to protect their goddess. You should know what that means."

Astraea nodded, gently rubbing Asahi's head as though returning the favor for all this time. "They will try to bring down Asahi even if it costs them their lives."

"Well, you know the deal with me. My death will end everything."

Klyscha's Blessing will be a catastrophe for this world.

"Ya will be fine," Loki assured, showing unwavering confidence in him. "Just kick their ass."

Hephaestus also looked at him worriedly. "Be wary of the Gulliver Brothers."

"The nasty pallum quartet," Loki said with a sour expression. "Those little shits think they are better than Finn."

Hephaestus chuckled. "You're always bitter about them. We should sleep."

Loki shrugged. "I ain't sleepy."

Chika flew around Asahi, waving her hands until he noticed her and said goodbye. Loki and Hephaestus left the room soon after. Asahi locked the door with his telekinesis and closed his eyes.

"You'll sleep like this?" Astraea asked, worrying her legs would become stone overnight.

"I don't mind sleeping like this every night."

"You're an addict for lap pillows."

She had often seen him receiving lap pillows.

"How can a man not love these thighs?"

No one could say no to the thighs of a goddess.

"Hey… what will happen after you beat Freya and others?" Astraea started loud but her voice gradually became a whisper. "Will we continue to serve as the symbol of justice?"

"Isn't that what we're doing?" Asahi held her chin and shook her head. "We eradicated most of Evilus. A small demonstration will make people hesitate a whole lot before they commit a crime. Don't you think so?"

"It might be so..."

"Well, enough of that. Let's sleep."

He pulled Astraea to lie beside him.

"You're so adorable," he whispered compliments in her ears as he pecked her cheeks. "Let's sleep like this."

The goddess of justice reddened in embarrassment. Giving a nod of agreement, she let him cling to her side.

Asahi rarely woke up during the night but today was an exception. Someone tinkered with the door's latch from outside. A woman who reeked of liquor, and her name wasn't Freya.

'Loki?'

Out of all the people in the Folkvangr, he never expected Loki to be the one to sneak into his room. With a needle in her hand, she easily unlocked the door and tiptoed to the bed. She stood there panting as if she was excited.

"So wholesome~."

Asahi doubted his ears for a second.

'Does this count as a voyeur fetish?'

(Ahem, she is an admirable woman.)

Loki took things to another level as she snuggled into his side and poked his cheeks. "Sleeping cozily here when I couldn't get a second of sleep."

Asahi's brows twitched. 'How is that my fault?'

Loki was too drunk to see his expression changing from her blabbering.

"Yer voice keeps playing in my head. That I'm a caring woman and whatnot shit. Now I can't stop thinking about that day in Hephaestus' workshop." Loki spilled her heart out in the quiet bedroom before she hugged him tightly and rested her head on his chest. "Ya are so warm…"

Asahi opened his eyes to say something teasing, only to find Loki lost in the land of dreams.

'Did she just come here to rant about your pent up feelings? Looks like headpats got the better of her.'

(She'll attack you soon… be careful)

'She is too much of a coward to do that. I'll have to take the initiative and attack her.'

As he closed his eyes to sleep again, another series of footsteps sounded in the distance.

It was Helen who came with a gleaming silver dagger in her hand. She stopped at the door and gaped at the sight of Asahi sleeping with two goddesses.

"He'll do the same to my goddess if he wins... Lady Freya can't be a maid. You must die..."

She clutched the dagger with lofty resolve and approached the bed with heavy steps.

Asahi didn't waste his time on Helen. He bought ropes from Klyscha. With delicate control of telekinesis, he tied Helen and shoved a gag in her mouth. Freya's devoted attendant couldn't utter a single word as she was tossed into the corner of the room.

Asahi continued to sleep while Helen struggled to raise a scream with the gag in her mouth.
