Nobody knows how to be a villain better than me.

Athena was taken aback by what she heard, her expression strange. She glanced at Tina, who was petting a rabbit, and felt that the Earth Touch above Tina's head seemed to be green with unease.

The white-haired loli then turned her head, crossed her arms, and looked at Samael with disdain.

"Hehe, no wonder that little girl always sticks to you. Looks like you and the Snake Mother..."

"Bang! What are you thinking! The Snake Mother has nothing to do with me, only with you!"

The ancient snake's face darkened, and it corrected him irritably.

"You should be able to feel it, once you get close to Medusa and the others, your blood will resonate and echo."

Seeing the doubt in the little girl's eyes, Gu She, for the sake of his reputation, had no choice but to offer some advice.

"Hmm, now that you mention it, I think I have that feeling."

"It seems that I really do have some connection with the Gorgon sisters. No wonder I always feel a strange attraction between us."

Athena raised her hand to her chin, pondering and reflecting, and nodded slightly as she murmured to herself.

"That's because the Snake Mother and your mother had a very good relationship. During your pregnancy with the three Gorgon sisters, they used their blood to nourish the babies born to each other, blessing one another."

"So, in a sense, you and Medusa and the others share similar blood."

"Besides, you were born before them, so naturally you're the older sister."

Samael briefly revealed some of Athena's background, then pointed out her blood connection with the three Gorgon sisters.

"So they also have Tina's blood in them, then I understand..."

Athena nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

"Uh, I guess so..."

Seeing this, Samael gave a vague response without further explanation, which led to the introduction of her true mother, the goddess Metis.

Athena is still too young and far from being able to accept that melodramatic family drama. If she learns too much about the dark side and her personality becomes distorted, it would be a loss.

"So, once you know about your blood ties, you must take responsibility."

After Athena gradually absorbed and digested this reality, the ancient serpent solemnly placed his hands on the shoulders of the little goddess of wisdom and earnestly gave her instructions.

"Why...why are you suddenly saying all this?"

The little goddess of wisdom, so highly praised and valued, was a little dizzy, but then she came to her senses and her eyes showed a slight understanding.

"Samael, are you leaving?"

The ancient serpent nodded, its gaze profound.

"I need to go out to run some errands in three days. While I'm gone, I'll leave their safety in your care."

"I?"

“That’s right, Athena, you are the smartest among them, and I believe in your wisdom and ability to handle crises.”

As Samael gently patted her shoulder, the goddess of wisdom, entrusted with an important task, suddenly felt an inexplicable weight on her shoulders.

Suddenly, that initial little bit of pride was shattered in the face of real responsibility, replaced by a sliver of self-doubt.

Don't worry, you can do it!

"You decide on the small matters, and the Serpent Mother and Tina will carry them out; for the big matters, entrust them to the nearby nymphs, who will go to the Water Tree House to seek help from Themis."

"As the older sister, you have to mediate the conflicts among those children, protect your younger sisters, and especially protect Tina and Erkedna, understand?"

Samael spoke seriously, his gaze solemn, as if entrusting family responsibilities to his grown-up child.

"Yeah! I promise!"

In such a solemn atmosphere, Athena nodded emphatically, a divine light shining on her tense little face.

"Well done, my little Athena has grown up and is really reliable."

The ancient serpent smiled with satisfaction and gently stroked Athena's head.

The best way to win over this clever, wise, and somewhat arrogant little goddess of wisdom and tame her is to give her the weight of responsibility.

Once a sense of psychological identification is formed regarding the need to protect younger siblings and the two "mothers," it is established.

Therefore, the conflict between Athena and Gorgon naturally disappeared, and it is unlikely that it will lead to a life-or-death situation in the future.

Moreover, with the assistance of this goddess of wisdom, the children of Typhon and the Serpent Mother may all have a better ending.

In short, reducing Anna's burden and increasing Athena's burden are Samael's different strategies for dealing with the two women's different personalities.

Tsk, training little lolis seems to be something I'm quite good at.

Seeing Athena beside her, still immersed in her sacred sense of mission, her fists clenched and her gaze resolute, the ancient serpent couldn't help but chuckle to itself.

During the discussion, they made some arrangements and detailed some matters before and after going out. The two figures, one big and one small, then played a few more rounds of games.

Then, when Athena yawned slightly, Samael took the initiative to calm things down, waved goodbye to the little girl, and instead took Tina's hand to wash her tender hands.

Although regular sleep is of little significance to deities, as one of the few human habits that the ancient serpent retained, he still had the habit of sleeping until he naturally woke up every day.

Following the example set by those above, Tina and Athena also developed the habit of enjoying daily sleep.

At night, after tidying up, due to a shortage of beds (of course, I believed this reason), Samael and Tina shared a large bed, where they slept fully clothed, embracing each other.

The two figures nestled together resembled a couple who, after a busy day, could finally enjoy the tranquility and tenderness of the night.

"Snapped!"

But the brief moment of peace was shattered by a sharp slap.

"Tina, if you want to sleep together, don't move around!"

“Aa?”

"Trying to be cute won't work!"

Finally, under Samael's vigilance, the Origin Goddess, who was not a peaceful sleeper and rolled from one end of the bed to the other, finally found the most comfortable position and angle and fell into a sweet sleep.

hiss…

Feeling the heat and bloating in his lower abdomen, Samael gasped slightly, moved a little distance away, and looked helplessly at Tina, whose lips were adorned with a trace of drool and who looked as pure and innocent as a baby, while secretly plotting.

How about we give Themis's study of the laws a crash course before we leave?

Okay! Let's do it this way! Lifelong learning, there's no end to learning!

In the darkness, the sleeping goddess of origin seemed to gleam with the verdant touch of the earth on either side of her.

As drowsiness washed over him, Samael, his mind focused on his study posture, wore a strange smile as his consciousness gradually faded.

In his dream, he vaguely felt himself in the Watery Treehouse, and after having a pleasant conversation with Themis, he couldn't help but go to bed, ready to continue their in-depth exploration.

Moreover, the usually conservative and reserved goddess of justice was unusually wild tonight, her legs wrapped around his waist and abdomen, her cherry-red lips slowly pressing down.

The breath from his mouth, as fragrant as orchids and musk, tickled his pores and skin, causing a slight tingling sensation, which made Samael unable to resist raising his hand to gently scratch.

Wait! Scratching?

The ancient snake sensed something was wrong and instinctively opened its eyes, instantly meeting a pair of purple eyes.

At this moment, that petite figure, about 60 or 70 centimeters tall, was riding on his waist, leaning forward, her cherry lips lightly biting a few times, slowly descending, about to imprint her mark on his forehead.

"Athena? Why aren't you sleeping at night? What are you doing here?"

Samael snapped out of his daze, his face darkening. He casually picked up the little one who had sneaked into his room and took him outside.

Why is this child not learning anything good? He's so young and already doing things like night raids.

At least grow up... cough cough.

Even if I grow up, it's not allowed! This is a matter of principle! Do you think I, Samael, am that kind of person?!

Chapter 47 If you won't give it to me, I'll take it myself (5/5)

"You kissed Medusa and the others during the day, didn't you?"

"Nothing!"

Samael vehemently denied it, but Athena looked up at him with a deep gaze, scrutinized him, frowned, and snorted softly.

“Stheno and the others have already boasted about it, and even mocked you, saying they were more likable to you than I was…”

"Slander! Utter slander! You are my most important, and currently my only child!"

The ancient serpent half-truthfully excused himself, while simultaneously making a note of Stheno and Euryale, those two troublesome brats who seemed to thrive on chaos.

Then, in the slightly somber atmosphere, Samael looked at the little goddess of wisdom whose face was full of displeasure and asked her cautiously.

"So, you came to my place at night because..."

Athena slightly raised her chin, looking completely at ease, while placing her hands on her hips with an air of self-righteousness.

"So what if she's my younger sister? What she has, I, as her older sister, should have even more of!"

"If you're being unfair and not giving it to me, then I'll just take it myself!"

Samael looked at the little girl's serious arrogance and sighed helplessly.

Knowing that if they didn't give an explanation tonight, this sharp-tongued and somewhat competitive little goddess of wisdom probably wouldn't let it go so easily.

The ancient serpent crouched down, gently brushed aside the strands of hair that fell across Athena's forehead, and lightly kissed the little girl's forehead.

The moment their skin touched, the little goddess of wisdom stiffened slightly, and a blush rose to her cheeks.

As the ancient serpent's lips parted from Athena's forehead, the little girl's eyes sparkled. She grabbed Samael's arm with one hand and pointed to both sides of her cheeks with the other.

"There are two more..."

Stheno! Euryale! You two have spread some great rumors! You're asking for it again, aren't you? You'll be in for a surprise when you get back!

Samael secretly wrote down the names of the two little troublemakers in his notebook once again. Looking at the expectation and seriousness on Athena's pretty face, he knew that explaining was useless and had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay, now that you're done kissing, go back to sleep and don't be silly like this again."

"Uh-huh!"

The little goddess of wisdom, having gotten her wish, smiled and nodded, appearing very obedient.

"Then, let's consider this a requiem kiss."

Samael slowly lowered his head, his lips gently touching the little girl's cheeks.

This tactile sensation is different from the experience on the forehead; it is soft and warm, like touching two pieces of sweet jelly.

I'm not a lolicon! I'm not a lolicon! I am...

Ahem, I'm not a lolicon!

Only after the ancient serpent repeatedly gave himself self-suggestion and self-reminders did he finally refrain from taking any further action.

Two soothing kisses, ultimately brief and fleeting, bestowed upon little Athena a beautiful blessing.

After their lips had been separated for a long time, Samael called out a few times, but Athena, who was covering one cheek with one hand, did not react at all and remained standing there in a daze.

"Satisfied? Go back to sleep."

It wasn't until the ancient serpent reached out and shook her shoulder that the little goddess of wisdom awoke as if from a dream, but she still refused to let go of Samael's arm with her soft hand.

Furthermore, Athena's eyes sparkled as if she had discovered a new continent, and her other small hand pointed wistfully to her lips, her eyes full of anticipation.

“Stheno and the others said…”

"Don't even think about it!"

Seeing that the curious little girl was getting a bit too far, Samael immediately frowned, tapped her on the head with his finger, and then grabbed her by the back of the neck, carrying her to the small bed.

Only when Little Athena, with a sweet and satisfied smile, gradually drifted off to sleep did the ancient serpent yawn, climb back into its own bed, and continue to catch up on its sleep.

These troublemakers have nothing better to do than cause trouble everywhere. It seems that after this Oceanus incident, their education really needs to be put on the agenda.

Homework and school education are simply the best way to control unruly children.

The ancient snake muttered to itself as it lay down on one side, its gaze involuntarily falling on the figure sleeping soundly with its teeth gently grinding, its luscious cherry lips making one's mouth water.

When it comes to kissing, everyone should be treated equally and fairly.

Samael, his heart filled with righteous indignation, lowered his head with a flickering gaze, his half-open lips sealing those cherry-like lips.
