Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife-Chapter 680: Cleaning up begins

Every time the god of deceit opened his mouth, the others groaned.

Lythia shot a frustrated glance at deceit and the complaint on her mind was quickly released from her mouth. "Great now she is going to think that the babies are ugly. What is wrong with you?"

"But the babies are beautiful." deceit chuckled.

Again, the other deities groaned and most sent Scarlet apologetic looks. They begged her for understanding with their eyes.

Deceit rolled his eyes dramatically and waved his hands around. "Fine, they are ugly little buggers. The worst I have ever seen. This little white and black haired one looks like a little dog. The breed which is black and white, you all know them."

The more he talked, the angrier Scarlet became. Somehow, she couldn’t understand if he was trolling her or being serious.

"He is a fool, why does he have to open his mouth?" Wisdom muttered.

The gods gathered in the room sitting around and gazing at the babies. Some were quiet, others were mesmerized and most were following every little movement of the babies who were now wide awake. One would think that they had never seen babies before, let alone interacted with them.

"For deities who are visiting babies for the first time, you all showed up empty handed. Where are the gifts? And please, nobody should start blessing my babies." She looked at deceit and pointed to him, "Especially you deceit, I don’t want you blessing my children in any way."

"Why am I always the bad guy?" The god of deceit looked at the god of chaos and then the god of hate and the god misfortune, even the goddesses of shadows, fire, strife. Which of them was better than him?

If you asked the humans, they were all bad in their own ways while life, light, sun, good luck, love and others that represented the more positive aspects of human life were the supposed good ones.

"I have a gift," The god of wine slurred.

A wine fountain popped up in the middle of the house.

The god of wine looked quite proud of himself with a foolish look on his face. "Huh, eh, eh."

While he looked proud, the others looked at him in the same way they had looked at deceit earlier. He might as well be the god of stupidity right now.

"They are babies, they don’t drink wine." Wisdom reminded him.

He burped and shrugged. "I brought a gift at least, and it counts. They can drink from it when they are older."

"I can fix this." Lythia said.

She snapped her hand and the liquid turned from red to white. She changed the wine into milk.

"Now all the babies can feed at the same time and mama Scarlet won’t have to take turns nursing one after the other."

She had the same look the god of wine had when he presented the wine fountain as a gift. The other deities had the same look that they had given the god of wine. A look which regarded Lythia as stupid.

"What?" She asked.

"Hound milk, really?" Wisdom questioned her, a look of distaste on his face.

When Scarlet heard what he said, her head popped up and a look of aversion came over her face. "Yeah, no, eww, my babies will not drink hound milk."

Wisdom opened his mouth and said, "You have been..."

"Shut up Wisdom." Lythia shouted.

Her loud voice set off all five babies a day they started to cry.

Lythia shot Wisdom an accusing look. "See what you have done now?"

Wisdom was perplexed. It was her that shouted and scared the children so why then was she accusing him of doing something?

The other gods meanwhile were doing their best to calm the babies and most were doing it the right way, soothing them with their powers, playing soft lullabies or bringing to life little toys that were playing in the air.

This was not the case with chaos whose toys were violent monsters eating up other creatures.

"Why is he here?" A frustrated Lythia asked when she saw what he was doing. He was doing the opposite of soothing. "Stop it chaos."

"But this one likes it." He gestured to the second baby.

Everyone looked and noticed what appeared to be a smile on her face as she watched with her red eyes.

"This might be a female version of Nyx." Carnelia suggested.

"Then she will be my favorite. I will be her godfather." Chaos declared.

"Have you asked the actual father?" Apheitos asked him.

"He is on clean up duty so he won’t be back for a while. It should take him six to twelve days to return and by the time he does, I will have bonded with little chaos here." Quite arrogantly and proud, chaos answered.

Scarlet had two things to deal with. One, chaos would be making her daughter his disciple and two, where had Esong gone without telling her?

The children had settled down for now so she went with Esong’s issue first.

"Let’s rewind first and go back to the part where you explain what my husband is up to. Where has he gone and why won’t he be back for some days?"

The gods looked at each other, then at her. Why was she clueless?

"You didn’t know that he would volunteer for clean up duty?" Lythia asked. Her voice held some surprise.

Scarlet raised her hands and replied, "I don’t even know what clean up duty is."

Wisdom saw that as his cue to explain and he stepped up quickly. "Ahead of the war, all the gods released and awakened all sorts of monsters from different worlds. Now, they must be forced back to their worlds or put back to sleep. Some have escaped and need tracking. That and a few other things need to be done.

So, some reapers have gone hunting and your husband happens to be one of them."

"It’s an urgent situation, please be understanding." Carnelia told her.

Scarlet forced herself to smile and she hugged the baby in her arms. She would save her anger for the idiot that didn’t think she needed to know about this.

How could he just up and leave when they just had babies? Shouldn’t he have said goodbye?

"She is not happy." The goddess of happiness whispered.

Lythia glared at the goddess and warned her to be quiet. Not everything needed to be said out loud.

"Who brought gifts, let’s give the children gifts. And Scarlet too, you should be rewarded for blessing the underworld with new life. Today is a great victory for our realm." Carnelia decided to lighten mama Scarlet’s mood.

She wondered who the bigger idiot was between Nyx and Esong. Two thinking minds but none could advise the other on the proper order of things.

"Two idiots really." She whispered.
