Epic of Caterpillar

Damn, I just didn't even know what to say anymore.

I just came here looking for Gaia and the other Titans, maybe met Hydros again…

But I'm surprised by a whole village of people similar to Hydros.

And I am also told that I have a daughter with her!

Yeah I do remember having sex with Hydros only once, but our relationship never advanced past that.

Actually I've had sex with a couple other girls before, but I never made them my wives, it was just casual sex.

Sometimes, they don't like the relationship part, or just don't want to bother me and I let them be. I sometimes am also not interested in taking them as wives.

Though, I do care for them…

But I could swear I made sure to not leave them pregnant, the other girls I've had sex, the dragon maids, never got pregnant.

But Hydros did? Was I too drunk or something back then and I didn't double check?

Ah, well, this is it now, I just have to accept it.

But dammit, she really hates me!

And I can't blame her… I wasn't there for her entire life.

She's a young adult now and even has a cute baby boy!

I'm his grandma!

Ah, I want to know more about them…

I love all my children so much, so instantly love her as well, and her beautiful boy.

But seriously, how can I even amend our relationship, if there wasn't one to begin with?

I guess only with time… I need to be patient.

At the very least she seems healthy and… happy in here?

This village is nice, and the island as well, a little paradise.

Although it hurts that she hates me…

I'm happy she's healthy and fine.

But seriously, I need to talk with Hydros, I have too many questions.

The meeting between the Titans and the other Gods and Poseidon will be delayed by an hour.

Don't worry, time inside the Divine Realm goes super-fast anyways…

But anyways.

"Hydros… We need to talk a lot."

"I know… I'm so sorry."

She lowered her head apologetically, but I wasn't really going to hate her for this or something either way.

She was the mother of my daughter, so I didn't really want to hate her.

But I was a bit angry and upset, yeah.

"Do you have a place where we can talk more in privately?"

"Y-Yeah, my tent, follow me."

She led me to the back of the largest tent, there was her room there connected to the other, I could easily hear my daughter, her boy, and her husband that just got here cooking and eating.

Ugh…

"Hydros this isn't the best privacy!" I said.

"Ah, but this is my house…" she sighed. "Um, let's create a noise proof barrier then."

"Fine," I nodded, waving my hand, as a barrier was formed.

Once that was done, we sat over her large bed to talk.

"Okay, so first, I want to say…" I looked at her big eye, which seemed very upset. "I'm sorry."

"Eh?" she felt surprised I actually apologized. "W-Why?"

"Because this is actually all my fault…" I said. "I got you pregnant without noticing, even though I always thought I made sure to not… make my seed fertile. I hardly remember that night, maybe I was very drunk. But I'm very sorry."

"Kireina…" Hydros blushed a bit. "N-No, please, don't say such a thing… I… I was dumb, I should be apologizing."

Her beautiful red eye started crying, as her long, silky red hair covered half her face.

"I'm sorry for not telling you but I was scared of making you upset and giving you more responsibilities… I thought I could handle it alone and well… I-I kind of did but… you had so many kids, and I wasn't even comparable to your gorgeous wives, so I thought I just… didn't want to tie you to me and force you to make me your wife. It wouldn't had been nice and honest."

"Hydros… I mean I would have… of course I would have made you my wife right away, I would have taken responsibility and I want to take responsibility right now too. I just feel really weird that I never could tell. When one of my children is born I usually receive a notification, but how didn't I get one?"

"It might be because I didn't want to upset you or bother you? I wished it so much, that maybe some sort of connection was broken…"

"Hmm…"

As I was thinking about that, Hydros suddenly moved closer to me.

"Um… Perhaps it has to do with the bloodline? I didn't do anything in specific but perhaps my wishes manifested into the bloodline," she explained. "After all I was a Goddess already unlike your other wives who were mortals by that time."

"Right…" I nodded. "Damn Hydros, why did you ever thought I would get upset? I love all my children you know. I would have loved ours just as much as the others. I love her now too, as much as the others. She's so beautiful and dazzling, and she looks very smart and strong willed… You've raised her so well, thank you."

"K-Kireina…" she started crying while blushing. "Why are you being so nice with me? I thought you would reprimand me or get a bit angrier? But… I don't deserve this kindness after what I did… Sniff…"

"Oh my goodness, maybe you did something wrong but it's more of my fault than yours, come here dear," I spread my arms, as Hydros immediately jumped to hug me tightly with her big muscular arms. I remember she had crab-like pincers as a secondary pair of arms, but they're gone now, did she took them away to look prettier or something?

"There, there, everything is okay," I caressed her long red hair, looking at her beautiful face and cleaning her big eye's tears.

It was going to take time, but I wasn't going to give up on this family either.
