The End of Myth (5) Whale Hunting
The End of Myth (5) Whale Hunting
Clomp, clomp.
My footsteps were heavy.
The temple stood empty.
All the men who had blocked our way had already been devoured.
'Such a damn shame.'
The women who hadn't done it with me were now violating men as if Amazons had possessed them.
"Ohohoho! What's got you panting like a dog?"
"Ahh, the face-sitting mount Lord Zeus taught us...! Grinding a man down with your pussy—haah—just what you'd expect from Lord Zeus...!"
"Heok, heok, heok...!"
Two goddesses were mounting a single man in a stacked position.
As I recalled, they were sisters.
'They said they'd take revenge through sex on the male god who dumped them.'
They hadn't done it with me, but I remembered the details perfectly.
They'd said that having sex with me directly felt too overwhelming and unworthy, so if I demonstrated with the two sisters, they would watch and learn.
"Ah, I remember that day."
I wrapped my arms around the waists of Neptune and Hades, who flanked me like attendants.
"Who was it that climbed onto my face that day?"
"...Both of us."
"Who went first?"
"Her."
"My sister did."
The two sisters glared at each other.
"M-me, I climbed on first? No way, Hades. Aren't you remembering it wrong? I mounted his cock first."
"What are you talking about? I impaled myself on our brother's cock backwards first. While I was doing that, you climbed onto his face, sister."
"That's because our brother said he'd lick that spot...! You're the one who just sat and buried your ass down...!"
There was no tension.
We were so relaxed we could chat like this right in the middle of enemy territory.
"Yiaaaah!"
A young Titan boy charged at us from afar and swung his sword.
"Hup."
I flicked my finger toward the boy.
A bolt of lightning erupted from Astrape and shot from my finger to strike him in an instant. The boy collapsed on the spot.
"Restrain this boy separately."
"Right. Make sure he isn't traumatized. Yes... we could send him to the nymphs who enjoy caring for children."
"Hoho, understood."
The Hecatoncheires immediately transported the boy away.
It wasn't just the boy. All the young men without the karma of rape were bound and sent down the mountain.
"The only ones getting devoured are those with the karma of devouring others. We can't torment the innocent."
The ones suffering reverse rape were all men who had previously raped someone, whether a wife or another woman.
"Ohohoho! You dared do such a thing to me...? You get the infinite handjob punishment...!"
"Tchk!"
And if even that wasn't desired—if the woman didn't want revenge through sex—the man was still restrained with cuffed hands and subjected to a handjob.
"Let me stop coming...! I've already come over seven times...!"
"Did you stop when I shouted, 'Stop raping me!'...?"
"Ah, aaah...!"
The male Titan shed tears and semen.
There was no helping him.
That man had broken the code of conduct between men and women.
Even when the woman genuinely told him to stop, he took it as an expression of her overflowing lust and rammed his cock in recklessly.
"Even I stop when I'm asked to stop thrusting."
"Exactly. The Titans here... they must be taught justice."
"That sex is a relationship that binds through love."
That's right.
Rape is not sex.
I was born on this land as a righteous sex missionary, and I will create a Greece overflowing with love and passion.
The Golden Age?
They can shove it.
"I am the chief god of Olympus. Zeus."
Creeeak.
I pushed the temple doors open wide.
"I will end the Age of Rape and usher in the Age of Consensual Union."
The temple was already empty.
All the men had left this place, except for one.
"Cronus! Your son has returned!"
I had always wanted to say that line.
"...What have you come for?"
"I am in the process of claiming the position of chief god. Father."
I'd wanted to say this one as well.
"...Is that so."
Cronus looked so terribly weak.
No, he actually was weak.
He had already weakened to the point I could instinctively gauge it.
Just as a man who has grown through the ages becomes an old man with the passage of time, Cronus had become a mental old man.
His body was still hard and enormous, but the spirit and soul that honed that flesh had grown old.
"Take this! For our mother!!"
Neptune charged forward first.
Hades also pressed her veil and melded into the darkness.
"Yes, you two have the right to claim revenge."
Cronus gripped his scythe.
"But you are weak."
Shrrrk!
Cronus slashed the empty air.
A powerful shockwave swept the surroundings.
Kwaang!!
"Augh...!"
With a single shockwave, Neptune was slammed into the wall.
Neptune, one of the strongest among us in Olympus, rolled helplessly on the floor.
"Sister?! Aaak!!"
"Titans this, Titans that—how dare a woman challenge a man?"
Cronus drove the shaft of his scythe into Hades's stomach.
Struck in the belly, Hades flew into a temple pillar and collapsed in an instant.
"Even if the ages change, some things do not. Just as my father Uranus was the sky and my mother Gaia was the earth."
Cronus aimed his scythe at me.
"Man is the sky, and woman is the earth."
"..."
I never expected to hear the K-Confucian philosophy of male superiority here.
No, since this is Greece, it's probably even more entrenched.
Ancient Greece was a male-supremacist society even more extreme than the Joseon era.
"I understand. That spirit is one I will carry on."
I gripped Astrape.
"But your method is wrong. The way of dominating women with your fist is outdated and brings only pain."
"Is that so? Then how will your reign dominate women?! Will you flatter them and wear a skirt? Will you throw away a man's pride and live by turning yourself into a woman?!"
"No. I will dominate women. But not by raising my fist to beat them, nor by torture and rape. I will..."
I raised Astrape, my pride, toward the sky.
"With sex, with my cock, I will dominate women squarely and fairly. I will make it so they can't live without my cock."
"That is... what you call your reign?"
"It is. So, step aside quietly."
Crackle.
Lightning surged up into the sky.
"You, who have been defeated by a stronger male."
Now.
The whale hunt begins.
* * *
Olympus.
With all forces having advanced upon Mount Othrys, a woman whose platinum-blonde hair had faded almost to white quietly offered a prayer inside a cave.
"Ahh... God."
The woman was a goddess.
And yet, she sought a god.
Though a goddess herself, she was desperate enough to seek one.
"Please, grant Zeus victory."
The goddess, Rhea, prayed for Zeus's victory.
Objectively speaking, Cronus was Rhea's husband.
Outwardly, he was a highly capable man, the best of men, who repelled external foes well, but the pain Cronus inflicted on Rhea was beyond imagination.
It was enough to make any woman curse him upon hearing the tale.
If she had loved Cronus at all, Rhea might have blamed herself.
But Cronus had raped her.
So Rhea decided to cheer for the one she truly loved.
"Zeus...!"
Not as a mother, but as a woman.
In the fight between two males, Rhea sincerely found herself cheering for Zeus.
"If Zeus incurs any karma from this affair, let it be solely my share. I will take it all upon myself... so please, grant Zeus victory."
The goddess prayed to a god.
Not to Goddess Gaia, nor any particular deity.
She prayed to fate.
"Just as Cronus overthrew Uranus, so too will Zeus overthrow Cronus. But if there is any karma arising from it... I will bear it all. So, I beg you."
[Truly?]
A voice came from somewhere.
"You are...?!"
[Who I am is not important. I have descended to prevent chaos. Do you truly intend to bear the karma?]
"...Yes."
[Does he know?]
"He does not."
It was the truth.
"If Zeus knew, he would absolutely forbid me from doing such a thing and bear it himself. That child is that kind of child."
Rhea remembered.
The boy who had come to save her had grown into a fine young man, and now he boldly wielded lightning to challenge for the position of chief god.
He was a man more manly than anyone, yet a man who cared for women more than anyone.
Zeus had never once taken Rhea by force.
If Rhea said she didn't want to, he would pull his cock out at any time.
Of course, Rhea herself rarely said 'no,' but Zeus had never just impaled and thrust blindly like Cronus.
That was the kind of child he was.
[Will you accept any karma? Any fate?]
"Yes. Even if I am confined for an eternity to Tartarus... no, to the deepest permafrost within the Abyss from which I can never escape, so that I may only see Zeus once a year... I will endure it."
[Is that so. If that is your resolve, I shall accept it.]
Fwaaash.
[The karma of immorality and the chaos born from incest will all pass on to you. Chaos and confusion will no longer arise for you. By death.]
"...May I, at least, leave some final words?"
[Hm?]
"Tell Zeus and the children that I loved them."
Rhea wept.
But the voice fell silent for a long while at her words.
[What do you mean? Who said I'm killing you.]
"...Excuse me?"
[I will not kill you. But I shall impose the most terrible punishment upon you.]
Shaaak.
Something entered Rhea's womb.
Gripped by a powerful sense of loss, Rhea clutched her stomach and collapsed.
"Ah, aaah...?!"
[This is the karma for your son's immorality in overthrowing his father.]
"That... that is the karma...?"
Rhea could not comprehend the act committed by the being before her.
"What on earth did you just...?"
[Your womb is now nothing more than a receptacle for semen. So the name 'womb' has also become meaningless. I have come to stop the chaos of a son impregnating his mother and a younger sister becoming a daughter. Now, let me inform you of the curse placed upon you.]
The voice spoke solemnly.
[You shall never bear the child of the one you love for the rest of your life.]
"..."
Rhea lifted her head in a daze.
"That... that is the curse...?"
[The sterility curse passed down from Uranus has now reached you. With this, no further chaos will continue.]
"Then... are you saying that I can have sex without worrying about pregnancy...?"
[...]
Chaos said nothing.
[Anyway, it's a curse.]
Swish.
Chaos vanished.
