The Dark Rebirth of Pandora: Revenge of the Abyss-Chapter 134: Past, Present and Future

I wait in the throne room until Lilith comes to give me what she promised. I may be "calm", but my anger has only diminished a little it’s still here. After a few minutes, Lilith Nix Kaos arrives in the throne room.

"I’m ready, Your Majesty," Lilith says, but she’s obviously excited about it because Nix can’t hide her enthusiasm, and Kaos seems slightly anxious about it in her own shy way.

"Great, then let’s go to Kaelith’s room?" That pervert has everything, and I’ll use her toys anyway she won’t complain about it, she’ll even be happy that I used her toys.

"Understood, Your Majesty," the three of them say in unison, agreeing with my choice.

I get up from the throne and go with the three of them to Kaelith’s room. We walk through the long corridors of the castle, which is much larger than it was in the beginning, as the castle is still expanding.

Several maids who are along the way bow as I pass by, some of them carrying cleaning materials stained with blood, probably the maids who were cleaning my room.

"Lilith...what’s it like to transform into your true form?" Lilith is a hydra, and as a monster in human form, she must know well what it feels like, and I want to know more about it.

"Hmm..." Lilith makes a thoughtful sound as she prepares to respond, but she is interrupted.

"Me, me, ask me, Your Majesty," Nix interrupts while Lilith was thinking. I usually always talk to Lilith because she seems to be the most responsible of the three.

"...Nix, what’s it like?" I think I should talk more with the two of them, as I often ignore them.

"It’s incredible, Your Majesty! You feel an incredible sense of freedom, along with a nostalgia you didn’t even know you had. There’s also the BAM and TCHAN and CHAKALAKABOM!"

"...What?" I look confused at Nix.

"What’s BAM? And TCHAN? And even worse, what is CHAKALAKABOM supposed to mean?" Even the sound of it is strange is that supposed to be a word?

"That’s exactly it, Your Majesty," she says, making exaggerated hand movements. Lilith sighs, as if she wanted to have avoided this.

"Y-Your Majesty..." Kaos speaks timidly, as if she wants to explain.

"Go ahead, Kaos..." I doubt it could be worse than Nix’s description.

"What Nix m-meant to say is that...you feel complete," she says, trying to contain the shyness of speaking directly to me.

"...Complete how exactly?" I don’t really know what it feels like to be complete, since I’ve never transformed into my true form.

"Y-Your Majesty, have you ever felt empty? Thought that something was missing? Or thought that your body seemed wrong somehow?" She asks, and as she says that, I think carefully.

"Yes, many times. Especially during the times when I’m not doing anything, I always felt like something wasn’t in the right place, that something was missing from me, but I never really understood it very well."

"That’s it...what Nix meant to say is that this feeling is finally satisfied," Kaos says, and after speaking, she becomes embarrassed and uses Lilith’s body as a shield to hide herself.

"I see...it sounds nice, I guess. And don’t you miss being in your true form?" I’ve never seen their complete form, in fact, I’ve never even seen their incomplete form the three of them are always in this "human" form, so I only know this version.

"Yes, we do miss it sometimes, Your Majesty...although we can’t control ourselves in our complete true form, that’s why Your Majesty needs to be careful not to be overwhelmed when transforming," Lilith responds, answering my question.

"And what’s that like? To me, it all seemed dark and cozy, like a warm embrace, but at the same time, like being submerged in a sticky liquid."

"For us three, it’s like being in the middle of a sea of blood. Our vision becomes slightly blurred and has a dark reddish tone, our body seems to act on its own, while it becomes difficult to focus on anything outside our field of vision," she speaks in a tone as if recalling something nostalgic to her.

"That doesn’t sound good?" Not having control over yourself, while focusing only on what’s in front of you, doesn’t seem very pleasant. In fact, it seems like the way a wild beast lives.

"Actually, it’s not. We are monsters, we just need to focus on what’s in front of us the past and the future are not as relevant as the present. You can’t change the past, and the future hasn’t happened yet, so you just live in the present and need to focus on it."

"But Lilith, the future doesn’t need plans and such." This doesn’t make much sense to me. I know I’ll be attacked in the future, so why would I focus only on the present? Shouldn’t I focus on the future that I know will happen? freёweɓnovel.com

"That’s not what I meant, Your Majesty. Think of it this way you’re a death butterfly. They have 1 to 2 days of life, and they focus on the present, even knowing their future is death."

"Even though they die in a short time, they don’t do anything about it. It’s the cycle of life. They focus on the present because if they stopped to ’think’ about what to do in the future, they would be wasting valuable time."

"Your Majesty, your older sister had power at a level that only goddesses could face. With that level of power, the future didn’t matter because she could resolve anything in the present."

"The future is simply something that can happen in your present. The future is something that simply hasn’t happened yet and can be changed by anything you do. I’m not saying that planning the future is not important, I’m just saying you shouldn’t get stuck on the future, but live in the present."

"Your Majesty, think about it. What do you want to achieve? Do you know how to achieve it? And if you have the power to achieve it, is it just because of future plans? The future is always changing, it’s never fixed. Plans and more plans are useless if taken literally."

"After all, a plan can always fail. And if it fails, what are you going to do with your present? You’ve let the present turn into the past while planning the future, and now that the future has arrived, your plan has failed are you going to simply give up or die?"

"That’s why monsters focus on the immediate present, because it’s what defines the future. If we don’t use the present with wisdom, we won’t even have a future to make plans for."

I become thoughtful about what Lilith is saying. She’s right, I don’t know the future, and my plans can always end up failing, after all, there’s no such thing as a really perfect plan.

Can I achieve my revenge? The answer is obviously yes, I have everything at my disposal to take revenge. If I failed, having so much power and support, it would be only my own fault and foolishness.

"So...I need power...an overwhelming power to shatter the very future, a power so great that nothing in existence could stand against me, a power to have the past, present, future, and destiny at my feet," I say this answer to Lilith, and she gives me a warm smile.

"Haha, that answer is similar to the one your sister gave me in the past. You’re so much like her, it’s exciting to know I’m serving someone like that," Lilith says with a smile, and the nostalgia is visible in her gaze.

"I agree, Your Majesty. If you attain such power, plans will be useless. The essence of a monster is to focus on the present, surpassing everything through power. If one day you have such strength, you will truly be the greatest representation of a monster that could exist," she says, excited at the prospect of witnessing such a future.

"I know exactly what I want to do right now," I tell Lilith, and the three of them look at me with curiosity.

"And what would that be, Your Majesty?" Lilith asks, puzzled.

"To get rid of my anger, I want to fuck you silly until you can’t even speak a word," I say with a mischievous smile.

"..." Lilith blushes and averts her gaze, while Nix makes an excited expression, and Kaos looks down, trying to hide her face. With this conversation over, we continue the journey to Kaelith’s room in silence.

Not an uncomfortable silence, but a natural one, as if we were old friends who have known each other for a long time, and words have become unnecessary.

We finally arrive in front of Kaelith’s room. I wonder what it’s like inside. I open the door cautiously.

"Oh...it’s...common? I swore I’d find thousands of photos and sculptures of me, and a bunch of sex toys..." The room is quite ordinary it has a bed, a table, a closet, a door that probably leads to a bathroom, and some dressers.

"Your Majesty, what were you expecting?" Lilith asks with a look that suggests she knows and doesn’t want to say.

"...Let me guess...there’s some secret room that has all the things Kaelith doesn’t want others to see."

"Bingo," Nix says when I make the most obvious deduction. I go to one of the drawers and open it.

’At least there are toys here for me to use...’ I don’t need to know what she’s hiding, and I prefer not to know. I’ve already found what I wanted, and I’d rather not have sex while looking at pictures of myself.

"Let’s start. Lilith, Nix, Kaos, take off your clothes."
