I pull Roxanne and Lina close to me, then we all relax on the seat of the hot tub and stare at the cloudy night sky above us. The Thunderplains has some weird type of clouds that don't fully cover the sky, so there are an uncountable amount of "holes" in their coverage, giving us many peeks of the stars and even part of the psychedelic moon.
It's quite a nice sight, but we're distracted by a slight discomfort in our bodies. The ship is quite stable, but it still has a small amount of constant shaking, and that has started to take its toll on us. Not only are we a bit more tired than we should be, given that we didn't do anything too exhausting today, but we're also still feeling weird due to the "phantom shaking."
I sigh and let my mind wander, then it starts to focus on the senses of the summoned hummingbird I gave to little Tavi, Roxanne's sister. I occasionally get glimpses of her mother and father "entertaining" a guest while the little girl plays with another girl her age. Since their timezone is ahead of ours, they're already at the "dessert" part of their dinner.
Those glimpses are so arousing that Roxanne and I begin to fantasize about me dominating Sanaz. I don't really like that woman, but I can't deny that she knows how to fuck, and having such a bitch like her begging to drink my cum would feel amazing.
So amazing that I cum down Hukarere's throat, and she releases my member to allow Aoi to have her turn.
Overall, Tavi's life is quite nice. She doesn't seem to be forced to train magic until her body collapses like they did with Roxanne, and Taveez also isn't a weird child like Roxanne was, so she has managed to make a few friends.
"Hey…!" Roxanne weakly croaks, and I kiss her forehead to appease her.
I'm actually glad that the succubi don't care much for privacy because Tavi takes that bird everywhere. Roxanne is also thankful because she missed Tavi's baby phase, but now, she won't miss a thing.
"Just you wait until she discovers masturbation and realizes that she has an audience all to herself," Roxanne whispers teasingly in my ear, and I try my best to forget what she just said.
Dinner is again an exciting event as the entire ship eats together, but I already notice that the conversations are losing creativity. Just a few more days, and we'll all be talking about sex nonstop like during our time in Rande's caravan.
Considering how free-spirited the Chimeras are, I totally believe things simply devolve into orgies whenever the boredom gets to be too much.
For the evening, I pull out our game tables for the girls, but we're not really in the mood for it, so I pull out my bottle of Cinco Flores, and we drink a little. I also begin to truly understand why people were all alcoholics before modern times…
Anyway, our family's lifestyle has changed too drastically. Now that we have excitement and adrenaline every day, just a few days of calm is enough to give us withdrawal.
I put on [Southern Maokai Language] and listen to Tavi as she describes her day to the rainbow-colored hummingbird.
She calls the bird either "Roxxy" or "sis," possibly because she misunderstood or forgot that the bird is mine, not Roxanne's.
"Roxxy, today I learned [Fireball]. It was a big flame, right? Dad said I could even warm a pot!" She excitedly retells as she pours an MP potion into the bird's little drinking bowl.
Maybe I should've given her a dog…
She waits for the bird to drink a bit before continuing, "You saw how far it flew, right?" -The bird nods- "It was more far than the other girls', right?" And she grins excitedly.
The hummingbird stops drinking, then it jumps on top of her head and lightly pecks her forehead.
Tavi pouts, and her eyes go cross as she tries to look at the bird. "What? Did I say something wrong?"
It gently pecks her forehead again, and Tavi looks down as she thinks deeply about it.
"Is it 'more far'…?" She asks out loud tentatively.
And the bird pecks her once again, then uses its little feet to massage her scalp, making her giggle.
She closes her eyes and ponders, "Okay, 'more far,'… hmm… far, far… further?"
The bird chirps happily and jumps back to its perch, then resumes drinking the potion.
Tavi is quite shy, but not around the bird, perhaps because she knows her sister is always listening. Though we don't pay attention to everything she does, we'll all watch her growth with great interest.
But our calm, relaxed time is interrupted by some slightly drunk girls.
Klein slams a card down on the bed and shouts triumphantly, "Hah! Strip!"
"The fuck? When did you become so sly?" Hana asks indignantly, her words faintly slurred.
The cheeky monkey smiles smugly. "After I started leveling up, my 'Stats' also began to increase."
"That's why the men don't play Poch with her anymore, she's got too much 'Wisdom' now," Hukarere tiredly explains and sighs.
"I've been working hard to become worthy of being a knight," Klein brags, full of pride.
"You've got to be smart if you want to juggle two dragons," Romy teasingly replies.
"Hm…?" I hum curiously and turn to them.
Romy slings an arm over her shoulder and fondles a perky tit while she dramatically sings praises, "Klein, the 'Audacious.' She not only persuaded two dragons to share her, but also stopped them from just killing each other."
"Like hell Wolfy would kill my brother over a woman," Hana grumbles back.
I nod calmly and add, "Hermann is an alright dude, and I want to have a good relationship with him."
Roxanne tries to peek at Klein's cards, but Hana flicks the tip of her dagger-tail, making her wince and give up.
Klein points a finger at me while she looks at the other girls and points out, "See? That's why I told Hermann that it'd be alright. He and Wolfy are the kind of men that just need a bit of banter, and they'd act like brothers in no time."
I chuckle heartily, then smirk as I hum, "Oh, I see. He did seem to become increasingly more bold around me as time passed."
Alissa hums thoughtfully and shares her thoughts through [Bind], "She actually has the foresight to make sure the members of her pseudo-harem have good relations with one another. That's commendable."
"She learned from the best," I brag, but I only hear scoffs in response.
"Yes, Alissa, you're the best harem manager we could ever wish for," Yunia affirms with a slow and measured tone, then sends me a teasing glance.
The cheeky fox giggles internally and whispers back, "Thank you."
Hukarere gives Klein and me a confused look as she comments, "I don't really understand nobility, but I understand your relationship even less."
The girls are too drunk to think properly, so I calmly explain, "Klein rejected my offer for her to become a concubine, so while that gives her the freedom to do whatever she likes, it also means that I can only give her attention after both my wives and my concubines are all satisfied."
Romy raises an eyebrow in confusion and chimes in, "As far as I know, only Lady Osaria is a concubine."
I nod. "For now."
"Ooh~…" The two Companions hum in unison.
I slowly nod as I smile and add, "Yes. Though, there's a limit to how many women I can have as concubines."
Romy gives Hukarere a teasing smirk, then elbows her in the ribs.
"Fuck off…" My white wolf growls and pushes Romy away, but then she blushes and stares awkwardly at the cards.
Seeing that she's locked up, Romy turns to Klein and shares, "You're a bit crazy to do what you're doing, but at least I understand you now."
Klein pouts and starts shuffling the cards as she huffs, "Hmph. I'm determined, not crazy."
And she's also quite good at Poch, the not-strip-poker. Eventually, everyone else is naked while she still has her underwear on.
"Now it's time for everyone to run a lap around the camp," Klein declares with an evil smile.
"This is silly. She's always naked," Yunia complains and points to Hukarere.
But I rain on their parade, "Oh, no. None of you are going to expose yourselves to the men like that."
Klein groans annoyedly, "But what else can we use as punishment?"
I hum and gently scratch my chin as I think, then I look at my hand, at my glorious scales and my incredibly sharp claws.
"Oh, I know what we can use…" I whisper sadistically, then I block the girls from reading my thoughts. I won't actually hurt them; I'll just give them a bit of a scare.
Today is the 2nd. Yn, day of Earth. The unofficial beginning of the workweek for dwarves due to how much more energetic they feel on this day, but that's not the case for Lina and the Gilbiks, who now feel that small boost in energy during Fis, day of Nature.
Klein wakes me up. It's been a while since she last did it, and the girls want revenge after losing to her, so I paint her brown skin with a double load of white juice.
"Not on my hair, or my fur…!" She complains loudly, and her cute pout makes me pity her a bit, so I [Clean] her hair and spread some elven products through it to bring it back to its full glory.
My [Massage] increased by 1 (now 0+4). I wanted to level my [Mana Body], but this is also fine.
Some of the crew and the knights are starting to warm up to coffee. Poppy, the cute dwarf girl from Kyora's harem (Lina is still much cuter!), also seems to enjoy coffee quite a lot, so I guess it'll become quite popular with dwarves in general.
Lina blushes and hides a pout, but I know she gets a little bit jealous when I ogle other dwarves.
The morning is chilly over here, but the sun is also quite harsh, so the temperature quickly rises once it's out, and it creates quite an idyllic view. Seeing the sun reflecting off the endless lake with nothing but grass around us is quite soothing.
What I don't like is that the grass comes up to about my knee, which makes it annoying to walk through, and the soil is also very wet and muddy, forcing us to [Clean] our shoes before we enter the ship.
We quickly resume our journey after everyone has fattened up a bit. Atawha, the cute raccoon Chimera, and Aneta, the seductive silver-elf, are now off-duty, so we invite them to our Suite.
"It's unbelievable how many women would kill to be in this Suite right now," Aneta smugly remarks as she sits on the bed and gives me a man-eating gaze.
I put a few of Alissa's points into [Lute Playing], then she gives us a nice, smooth tune while the three golems stare at her, trying to absorb all the information they can from the skill.
"Well, it's not surprising considering that only Companions are regularly allowed inside our private quarters," Yunia replies and sits beside the naked beauty, feeling like asserting dominance over the other elf before she lets the Companion get a piece of me.
I motion for Atawha to come closer, and she almost skips with delight as she throws herself at me.
"I have a feeling that our fame is rising to ridiculous levels…" Ciel mumbles wryly, dreading the truth.
"I don't think it's unearned," Atawha cheerfully replies as she rubs my cock through my pants.
I fondle one of her nicely shaped tits and gaze into her pretty eyes, making her blush and look away.
Alissa smiles as she gently pulls the strings of her lute and affirms, "It's exactly what we deserve. None of us are average people anymore."
Lina feels inclined to disagree, but her work with Aoi in the forge is going to start an industrial revolution on Rupegia, so she's going to be in history books one day, a chilling prospect for her.
I run my claws over Atawha's exposed chest, then I circle her nipples, and I see her skin get goosebumps while her two pointy bits harden.
Ciel starts giving out the "candy" to everyone, and I quickly swallow mine, but she handed me two. I hold the other one between my teeth, then I make the adorable bandit girl face me, and I steal her lips, pushing the spicy-tasting pill into her mouth with my tongue.
"The kindness you show to us is so genuine that the adoration the Companions show for you Royals is quite understandable," Aneta adds with surprising composure given that Yunia is doing her best to punish her clit.
The word "adoration" makes me a bit concerned, but the rest is absolutely true.
Once Ciel stops before them, they both open their mouths and stick their tongues out. The candy angel smiles wryly, but she still delicately feeds both luscious elves by hand.
I break the kiss and coolly remark, "Those who accept our love in full we consider as part of our pseudo-harem. You're not wives, but you also aren't just soldiers serving us."
The two Companions smile, and the hunger in their eyes doubles.
The girls climb on the bed and surround me, then we make ourselves comfortable and listen to Alissa while we wait for the not-LSD to kick in.
She plays a song from her childhood, but she doesn't know the lyrics, so she just hums. It's a nursery rhyme, so it's quite simple and very catchy.
I stare at her cute figure as her tail slowly sways with the rhythm, and a smile blooms on my lips without my notice.
Then the colors of her hair and fur catch my attention as they become brighter and more vivid, giving Alissa an ethereal appearance.
Oh, it's starting pretty quickly.
Her pale skin, her pink nipples, and her delicate traits gradually pop out more, enhancing the cuteness of her features so much that it's like she's a drawing, an exaggerated representation of a cute fox girl.
Each time she plucks a string, I notice my vision tremble, but soon, I realize that it's actually the colors that are jumping along with the tune, rippling outwards in waves.
The orange and white take over my view, as if it were a dichromatic painting, then I look down and see that the raccoon Companion has also become orange and white, but the hints of pink of her pussy lips and nipples become even more noticeable, attracting my body to them like a magnet.
"HAAAAH!" I penetrate her, and we both shout in absolute bliss, then our bodies twitch along with the rhythm, and I feel myself turn into a liquid as my mind melts in her embrace.
"♪ Kruwata tsunowo vralai ♪," a gentle, heavenly voice wakes me up, and my fading awareness recovers some of its strength, then I look ahead and see a shining golden sun behind the dancing fox girl.
"♪ Tsuriji pfuralekai ♪," the heavenly sun continues to sing, and I almost stop my dance in awe of its golden light, then the fox girl stands and shakes her hips, and flashes of orange from the swaying of her fluffy tail catch my attention.
"♪ Kwondzuvai undovartsu wronduwail ♪."
The fox grins towards her left, and I see a life-sized drawing of another woman. She has unbelievable curves, made solely for the purpose of enhancing her sex appeal, which gives her a bountiful body, the opposite of the fox girl. Even the slightly dark tone of her skin contrasts with the girl's, and it makes me hungry for chocolate, for some reason.
"♪ Tjortetei jeki liago ♪."
The darker woman remains still, but then she suddenly shakes her hips, causing a massive amount of jiggle to fill her fleshy body, which ripples out from her and hits me, sending a jolt of energy through my liquid body.
"♪ Jiunmata ivelischpfuli ♪."
Before my heart can calm down, she shakes her hips again, then again, and again, and again. Soon, the three of us are all dancing in sync, the air filled with the ripples of our actions while the sun sings and shines its marvelous light upon us, bringing about a small piece of Heaven.
Intermission – Jarn
"Analysis," Ted requests.
"No harmful reactions detected," Suzy responds first.
"No harmful reactions detected," I respond a second later, my analytical ability different from hers, though our conclusion is the same.
Ted shares her analysis, which is always the same as Suzy's, "No harmful reactions detected. Conclusion, no action required."
I share my concern, "I have a doubt. Master Roxanne's crying has not ceased."
Ted and Suzy respond in unison, "Master Wolf doesn't consider crying to be harmful. Analyze her emotions further, and you'll find a piece of happiness among the large influx."
"Understood," I reply, then I analyze and reach a similar conclusion, though it takes me longer, and I'm unsure that the negative emotions in the influx won't overwhelm the memories of this experience.
The two then continue, "The only one in any danger is Master Lina; her catatonic state could be problematic. We must monitor her life signs closely for any sort of damage and be prepared to cut her sense sharing with Master Wolf."
I also hold doubts about this analysis. An experience too intense could become addictive as it diminishes all other experiences.
Master Hana gets up from the bed, then rushes out of the room, bursting through the double doors.
"My physical capabilities are higher. I'll follow her," I volunteer.
"Understood."
I run and match Master Hana's speed, but one of the Companions on guard, a werecat woman, also follows, and her expression is clearly one of confusion, so I stop to talk.
"What the fuck is going on?!" She shouts, her tone implying anger and fear. She isn't one of the close Companions. Name irrelevant.
"Master Hana is going through a manic episode caused by the use of strong psychedelic drugs. Prepare a squad to physically restrain her."
The pink color of her face becomes paler from fear restricting its blood flow. "'Restrain'…? Fuck!"
She's in danger of panicking, so I use soothing words, "This is not an emergency, only a precaution."
She nods, and her posture straightens as she recovers from shock. "O-okay…"
Then I turn around and run at full speed to catch up with Master Hana. She goes up through the ship and exits it at the top, then she sits down in the rain as lightning bolts fall upon her head.
These bolts are too weak to harm either of us, so I stand behind her.
She closes her eyes and crosses her legs in a pose that Master Wolf would describe as "a monk meditating." Her thoughts explain that she's trying to keep her emotions under control while suffering from both pain and mania, something that Master Wolf would describe as "a monk's spiritual training," id est, "spiritual bullshit."
Templar Kyora joins us, her face expressing confusion and curiosity.
Without explanation, she sits down beside Master Hana and copies her behavior.
Master Aoi then flies out of the Royal Suite and also joins Master Hana.
The Companion comes back with a number of knights, but I stop them from coming closer. Neither of the Masters want to be disturbed, and their manic episodes are coming to an end.
Though my duty is to keep the two Masters safe, my attention is drawn to the influx of emotions connecting all the Masters together.
"Curious," Ted, Suzy, and I all think at the same time.
Intermission end.
