Chapter 684: I'm Trying to Terminate My Contract with the Goddess, but She's Obsessed [R-18] (30)
Thankfully, time passed without any further attacks or incidents. I decided the first thing I needed to do was get rid of my penalty.
This time, however, Freya was incredibly busy. She was running all over the place dealing with the Zeus and Poseidon situation, contacting various gods herself.
The Freyas Sisters went to investigate Freya's domain. There, they told me, they had found an unexpected trace.
It was a trace of the Chronos organization.
‘I can’t believe they’re involved in this… They said there were definite traces of a golden hourglass.’
But there was something even stranger. The organization had clearly been there, but for what purpose had they appeared and helped Zeus and Poseidon?
‘What’s their goal…? And in the original story, the Chronos bastards didn't have the technology to breach the domains of the gods.’
According to the Freyas Sisters, it was certain that the intruders had used some suspicious method to neutralize Freya's barrier.
‘If that’s the case… the very concept of the gods’ domains being safe zones is about to be shattered.’
Just then, Verdandi approached and whispered softly.
“Come now, Seo-yun. It’s time for your meal~”
Her breasts were naturally exposed before me. A drop of milky-white liquid had formed at the tip of her nipple.
“Is it time to eat already?”
I naturally climbed onto Verdandi’s lap and took her nipple into my mouth. A warm, sweet taste filled my senses.
After suckling for a while, I pulled away for a moment to ask.
“Verdandi, I’m thinking of trying to seduce Freya… How do you think I can win her over?”
Verdandi answered with a gentle smile.
“Hmm, first, you need to set the right mood. Freya is weaker to atmosphere than she looks. And she loves surprise events, like gifts.”
“Really?”
“Set the mood perfectly and prepare a gift.”
“I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks.”
Verdandi gently cradled my head and once again offered me her sweet milk.
Afterward, I shared a light intimacy with Verdandi and waited for Freya to return. To pass the time, I casually asked Freya’s handmaidens what she liked.
“Lady Freya, you ask? Hmm… I think she would like any gift, as long as it’s from the heart.”
“Just, jump him— Mmph!”
The handmaiden next to her was instantly silenced.
Another handmaiden spoke with a bright smile.
“Please ignore her. How about a simple gift, like flowers?”
“She’s a goddess. Wouldn’t giving her mere flowers seem a bit insincere?”
She shook her head.
“On the contrary, it’s because she’s a goddess that she might be more moved by such a simple gift. Someone like Lady Freya already has almost everything in the world.”
I nodded slowly.
“The more you have, the more you might cherish the ordinary.”
The handmaidens smiled brightly in unison.
“Yes! What’s truly important isn’t the size or value of the gift, but your sincere feelings, Seo-yun.”
A faint smile touched my lips.
‘Starting off simple should be fine, then.’

I asked the others for a favor and managed to carve out some time to be alone with Freya for the evening.
She returned when evening fell, and we sat across from each other at the dining table to begin our meal.
The problem was, my body was still that of a child due to the penalty, so no matter how you looked at it, the scene resembled a little brother eating with his older sister.
‘This isn't helping the mood at all. Dammit…’
Freya put down her chopsticks and glanced at me.
“What is it? You’re acting strange today.”
I maintained my composure as best I could and smiled.
“It’s nothing. Is the food to your liking?”
Freya smiled back.
“Yes, it’s delicious. I like Korean food because I can taste so many different things.”
“I’m glad. By the way, how did things go today?”
Freya set down her chopsticks and spoke slowly.
“It was resolved rather well. Hera and Hades have Zeus and Poseidon in custody, so reaching an agreement was easier than expected. I’ll tell you what we agreed upon today.”
“Yes.”
“First, Zeus’s power will be completely restricted for eighty years. He’ll be at the level of a minor god. He must also officially apologize to you and hand over one-tenth of his divinity. I originally tried to get two-tenths, but all the other gods protested, so I had to back down. Lastly, Zeus must grant you one wish. Anything.”
“A wish?”
“Yes. For example, if you tell Zeus to ‘cut off his genitals,’ he has to actually do it. In this agreement, that’s actually the most crucial part.”
“Wow.”
Freya continued with a smile.
“A human has received a similar wish from a god before, but they all got scared and didn’t ask for much. I’m hoping you’ll exceed my expectations, though?”
It sounded like she wanted me to use the wish to screw Zeus over.
“Hmm, I’ll think about it.”
Using the wish to find out Zeus’s connection to Chronos was one option, but I could also demand something else.
Freya nodded and met my eyes.
“More importantly, why are you trying so hard to set a mood today?”
I took a quiet breath and spoke.
“I just wanted to properly treat you today, Lady Freya, for helping me in so many ways. And… I also prepared a gift.”
I carefully held out the bouquet of flowers the Freyas Sisters had recommended.
‘Was it baby’s breath?’
Freya accepted the bouquet and slowly caressed the petals.
“Baby’s breath… Do you know the meaning of this flower?”
“A pure heart, or love… right?”
“Heh, you know your stuff, don’t you? Then what about the meaning of the purple baby’s breath in the center?”
I scratched my head.
“That… I’m not sure. I thought they were all pretty much the same.”
Freya shook her head with a smile.
“No. The meaning of purple baby’s breath is ‘I want to be with you forever.’”
Her golden eyes gazed deeply into mine.
“Do you love me?”
A serious expression, a voice without a single tremor.
For a moment, I almost blurted out ‘I love you’ before I stopped myself.
‘My opponent is the goddess of love. She’d know immediately if I lied.’
And in that instant, I realized. I had been so focused on getting my penalty lifted that I hadn’t considered Freya’s feelings at all.
‘I was only thinking about myself. That would have been rude.’
So, with all the sincerity I could muster, I answered slowly.
“Hmm… rather than love, it’s a token of my apology for my previous remarks, and my gratitude. And… I don’t know about love just yet, but I do like you.”
Freya watched me, mulling over my words for a long time.
Silence stretched between us, and then she whispered with a small smile.
“That’s enough. It’s much better than a lie.”
Perhaps if I had said I loved her just now, she would have been disappointed.

For the next few days, I spent time with Freya intermittently. She still had many things to resolve.
I especially asked her to press Zeus about how he had managed to breach her domain, but…
“He says he doesn’t know anything.”
She answered, holding me in her lap.
“Do you think he’s lying?”
“I don’t know. Poseidon is just an idiot.”
“What have you decided to do about the Chronos organization?”
“…We tried to find them to deliver divine punishment, but strangely, we can’t locate them. And it doesn’t make sense to mess with the sealed Chronos.”
‘Hmm, thankfully this part hasn’t changed from the original story.’
It seemed the sealed state of Chronos, the leader of the Chronos organization, remained unchanged.
That meant his contractor was plotting something, but the problem was that I didn’t know the contractor’s location either.
“In any case, this incident has revealed that the gods’ personal domains can be breached, so I think we’ll all be paying more attention to security.”
“It’s a relief that it came to light without any real damage.”
“Yes. But… who said you could touch me?”
“Oops, I did it without thinking.”
I had been unconsciously touching Freya’s breast.
“Pervert…”
Blushing, Freya hugged me tightly, then let out a quiet sigh with a wry smile.
“Honestly… I was trying to push Verdandi aside and become your first…”
She sighed again and continued.
“Really… for a goddess of my stature to fall for a human, casting aside all my pride… what am I even doing…”
I cautiously tested the waters.
“Um, does that mean…?”
Freya glared at me.
“You’re so mischievous. You already know, but you want to hear me say it, don’t you?”
“No? I have no idea what you mean.”
“Fine! This is what you want to hear… I’ll be your woman…”
“Then should we have sex?”
“Are you crazy? I’ll only do it when you’re an adult! And what’s with suddenly bringing up sex in a mood like this?”
“But last time, you seemed like you would!”
“Th-that was then…! I want to do it in that form…”
It seemed she had taken a liking to my previous appearance.
“Actually, I need to have sex once to return to my original form.”
“What kind of bullshit is that? Then what was all that sucking, fucking, and coming you did with Verdandi and that woman Bi-yeon?”
“Um, well, it only works if I do it with you, Lady Freya.”
“Are you really going to keep spouting nonsense?”
“No, it’s true.”
“No. You said it would wear off in about three weeks anyway. I can wait until then. Time is all I have.”
“But I can’t wait that long!”
“Nope, not happening!”
“Don’t tell me… is it because you want your hymen to be broken by my adult self?”
“I-I’m not a virgin!”
“Yes, you are! Everyone already knows you’re not a virgin! You old maid!”
“Eek! Did you just call me an old maid?!”
“Agh! That hurts!”
“Take it back! Take it back!”
Freya, her face flushed with anger, began to squeeze my cheeks.
“Alright, I get it! Lady Freya is an eternal virgin in her twenties!”
“Just try calling me an old maid one more time!”
Only then did Freya let go. Even though my cheeks were stinging, she puffed them out slightly and muttered.
“…You really don’t understand a woman’s heart.”
“Huh?”
“It’s nothing.”
Hugging me tightly again, Freya gazed out the window for a moment.
A quiet silence flowed between us.
“Seo-yun.”
“Yes?”
“…Do you really want to do it that badly?”
“There are a lot of people after my body right now. I want to get back to normal as soon as possible.”
Freya hesitated for a long time before asking quietly.
“…It’s true, right? If I do it with you, you’ll return to your original form?”
“Yes, it’s absolutely true.”
“Hah… I don’t know. First… want to wash up together?”
“I’d love to!”
Without another word, Freya took my hand and walked straight toward the bath.
In front of the changing room, she said.
“Get undressed on your own and come in.”
“Yes, ma’am!”
Freya went into the adjacent changing room first. I threw off all my clothes in a single second.
‘Finally, sex…!’
The day I could finally escape this kid’s body had arrived.
