Journey to Planar World

The Labyrinth City Orario is a city of dreams, where many people flock to fulfill their ambitions and personal goals.

It is the center of the world where gods and goddesses descend to the lower world seeking entertainment from mortals.

Orario is Charlie's destination, and he will stay there for a long time.

*WHOOSH*

"Stop, Goddess Aphrodite, that will leave a mark."

Flying through the air, Charlie didn't carry Aphrodite on his back like he did with Hera, but instead carried her in a princess carry. There was no other choice; she insisted she wouldn't come along unless her egotistical demand was met.

"This is your punishment for being late. You made me wait so long, just accept your punishment, or… do you think this is a reward rather than a punishment?"

Aphrodite stared directly at him with a charming smile.

"No comments." Charlie had no intention of replying.

This punishment is because he failed to keep the agreed meeting time due to falling asleep on a remote island earlier.

"Then be a good boy and obey."

Parting her cherry lips, Aphrodite shamelessly kissed his neck, wanting to leave a hickey on him.

"..."

Charlie inhaled sharply as he felt the soft, wet lips attach to his neck as if a worm was crawling.

He had to admit that the Goddess of Beauty was a bitch; they had no concept of chastity and had engaged in immoral acts just to satisfy pleasure.

Charlie had even heard stories of the Goddess of Beauty Freya while he was still in Heaven from Hera.

According to Hera, the Goddess of Beauty held a special position among the gods and goddesses. Their charm was like sweet nectar and deadly poison that could twist the truth. There were only two choices: kill them or pamper them like princesses. As for Freya, she was special even among the Goddesses of Beauty. Only the three main gods of Olympus were immune to her charm.

Although Freya did not wish to be worshiped and feared, the treatment by the gods had restricted her freedom and made her suffer. Eventually, Freya realized that she was merely a slave to the feeling of love, so she wanted to ruin herself and let her body be defiled by the gods for thousands of years.

For 3,000 nights, Freya, who had fled, shed tears in a flower field and searched for something that could free her from the burden of being the Goddess of Beauty. Until the moment when the Goddess Idun appeared and influenced her to search for her Odr (husband).

The appearance of Goddess Idun and her lecture made Freya angry and want to kill her. If Freya had killed Idun at that moment, she most likely would have been killed by the god Odin, who was watching with Gungnir.

'Since Freya had slept with nearly every god and goddess in Heaven, Ishtar and Aphrodite, who were also Goddesses of Beauty, at least had similar experiences, right?'

Because of this thought, Charlie felt no lust for Aphrodite, no matter how much she tried to seduce him.

For him, he felt disgusted by women who had slept with more than one man. His thoughts might be conservative and outdated, but he remained firm in his principles.

A woman who couldn't preserve her chastity for her future husband was not a good woman. At least, that was Charlie's personal opinion. Of course, he wouldn't force his mindset on other people.

"Hm? You were thinking something rude about me, weren't you?"

Aphrodite stopped kissing and looked at him suspiciously.

"It's just your feeling, Goddess Aphrodite."

"It seems you've forgotten that no one can lie in front of the gods."

"..."

"I'll take your silence as agreement. So, what were you just thinking?"

"No comments."

Since he couldn't lie, Charlie refused to answer.

"You're annoying, Charlie." Aphrodite complained.

"We're almost there."

In the distance, Charlie could see the Babel Tower standing tall in the center of the city, towering into the sky.

"What a shame, I'm still not satisfied with playing around."

Seeing a few hickeys on Charlie's neck, Aphrodite stopped adding more.

"Look, someone's flying!"

"Is that Perseus from the Hermes Familia? That can't be right, isn't Perseus a woman?"

"So who is he?"

The arrival of Charlie and Aphrodite immediately attracted the attention of everyone queuing to enter Orario.

Outside the city gate, a long line awaited inspection, and Charlie landed at the very back of the line.

After setting Aphrodite down from his arms, he received many curious glances from the people around him. In any case, only one person is known to have the ability to fly. Now, as he openly flies, it's no wonder he's the center of attention.

"Mhm… Are you a goddess?"

Standing before the two of them was a man from the Pallum race. When he saw them approaching, he couldn't hide the shock on his face and cautiously asked.

"You have good judgment. I am the Goddess of Beauty, Aphrodite."

Proudly patting her chest, Aphrodite lifted her chin high.

"Please go ahead, Aphrodite-sama, I'm in no rush."

The man couldn't resist Aphrodite's charm, and he willingly gave up his position.

"I appreciate it, young man." Aphrodite did not refuse and walked forward with Charlie.

Next, the same thing happened repeatedly. Regardless of race or gender, people in line would give up their spots to Aphrodite without hesitation, with captivated expressions on their faces.

From this, Charlie understood how terrifying the charm of a Goddess of Beauty was. No wonder the Goddesses of Beauty were avoided, as they could influence others' desires with their charm alone.

As far as he knew, only he and Bell Cranel were immune to the charms of a Goddess of Beauty!

Charlie had The Chosen Savior Skill, while Bell Cranel had Liaris Freese Skill. With those Skills, they were two rare individuals immune to the charm even feared by the gods in their prime.

Back to the main topic, thanks to Aphrodite influencing people with her charm, they unknowingly reached the front of the gate.

Standing in front of the gate were two guards from the Ganesha Familia, who were interrogating and inspecting people trying to enter the city, as well as collecting the required entrance fee.

"Alright! Next!" One of the guards shouted as he ushered the next person in line to be checked.

The two guards then noticed the figure of a goddess standing before them.

"Aphrodite-sama!" 2x

Facing the Goddess of Beauty, both guards hurriedly looked down, afraid their minds would be affected by her charm.

"Good work, you two. Then I'll go in."

"P-Please proceed." One of the guards stuttered in response.

After the young man and the goddess had gone, the two guards sighed in relief. They even forgot to collect the 50 valis entrance feel dan they didn't even conduct an examination on Charlie.

"That was scary… As the rumors say, the Goddess of Beauty can captivate people just by her appearance."

"Don't think about it. If you keep remembering Aphrodite-sama's face, I'm afraid you won't be able to love your wife anymore."

"You've got a point."

Even though he was hit on the back of the head by his companion, the guard didn't get angry and instead was grateful.

Trying to forget the image of Aphrodite clearly imprinted in their minds, the two guards worked more seriously than usual to distract themselves.
