Chapter 147: Chapter 130 – The Succubus Queen’s Return

Horns bellowed in a unison from every direction, signaling to Kanae that they had arrived at the city of Ehmvier without even needing to see. For the people, the fanfare heralded the return of their queen. Kanae and Edina opened the carriage windows to hundreds of citizens pouring into the streets to welcome them home. They waved back, glad to be back after being away for so long. People threw flowers into the path and—

Someone's brassiere landed on Kanae's horn.

"Yep. This feels like home," Kanae said, plucking off the bra and settling back into her seat to avoid catching more underwear.

"Oooh! The capital of the Commonwealth is so pretty! It's got nothing on Radevic, but I can get used to all the nature up here. Everyone is so happy, too!" Ulric beamed like an idol as he waved back to the crowds.

"It's like letting folks live however they want is a good thing. But who am I to argue?" Edina shrugged.

"You say that." The dark elven Saint Priest returned inside after catching a rose. "Until too problems start cropping up than you know how to solve. Most of the world lives under a theocratic oligarchy. The Commonwealth isn't any different under Queen Kanae and the high priestesses of the Eminence of Sin. Difference is Radevic and Ortesia are just old enough to learn from experience."

"Psh. That experience led to a major rebellion in what was supposed to be your most sacred order, right?" the squirreling remarked snidely.

Ulric didn't make any effort to counter what Edina said. Instead, he was content enough to sit back and sniff the rose.

The more people they passed, Kanae began to notice many women were pregnant. Like, at a guess, three out of every five had baby bumps. She didn't remember there being so many before leaving to train as Knight of Amethyst.

When the carriage lurched to a stop, Esta exited first and lent a hand to help each of them down. Arenade and their children had been waiting at the front of the castle. Noah was probably still in Highgreen, and Mitty was nowhere to be seen. The moment Kanae touched ground, the kids had already swarmed her. She picked up the smallest, Suvee and Kanade, and enveloped the rest with her wings.

"Not a day went by that I didn't miss my babies. Did you all behave?" Kanae asked.

Teana and Pan were the only ones to gaze away awkwardly.

"The usual suspects tried to sneak out of the city. Several times. Luckily, Lilith was faster. Thank the Supreme One for crowning her as a Scout," Arenade said, folding her arms at the two.

Teana pouted. "Auntie Arenade is a killjoy. I like Auntie Edina more."

"Hehe. You got that right, munchkin! Your favorite aunt brought you kits some gifts in the trunk. All on the coin of someone else's money. Come on!" Edina beckoned them to the back of the carriage, and they followed after like children on Christmas morning. Even Suvee and Kanade wriggled out of Kanae's arms, more excited for presents than of their mom.

"It really is one big happy succubus family here. I thought Delayn and Vestrid were overexaggerating." Ulric hopped out of the carriage, glancing over his shoulder at the succubus children.

"And all of them are mine," Kanae said proudly. "Across several consorts."

"A pleasure to meet you again, Queen-regent Arenade. It looks like I'll be in the Commonwealth's care once more." He curtsied with graceful poise, but his voice was dripping with playfulness.

"Yeah, yeah. Take your formalities elsewhere. We'll prepare you a room in the castle, but don't go causing trouble around here. This isn't Radevic," she warned him.

Kanae had almost forgotten that they already met. There must already be a rapport, given Ulric's whimsical attitude and Arenade's short fuse.

"Oh, I won't be!" Ulric smiled. "King and Grand Eye's orders are to secure the northern borders, and I intend to help in any way I can. For now, maybe you can point me to whoever oversees your defenses."

That would be—

"Kanae! Thank god, you're back!"

Right on time. Manabe, Kanae's high school friend from back in Japan who ended up in this world as an orc, came running past the castle gates. The gambeson he wore was pulled taut over his muscular frame. Sheathed at his waist was the flaming sword, currently unlit. He stopped in front of them, hands to his knees and panting deeply.

"There's a… slime outbreak… east of—"

"Hold that thought, Manabe." Kanae patted him on the chest and turned to the Saint Priest. "Ulric, this is Manabe. An orc warrior and head of the Commonwealth's defenses. Anything you need, he's the man to go to."

"This hunk of an orc is? Well, I'm enchanted to meet you!" Ulric shot his cutest smile and struck Manabe right in the heart.

"Um… er… It… It's nice to meet you, too… " Manabe stammered, then lowered his voice next to Kanae's ears. "Holy crap, she's so cute! Where did you find this dark elf loli?"

Kanae swallowed the urge to tell him the truth. "She is a very important guest from Radevic who will be staying with us for a while. Would you like the honors of showing her around?"

"Leave it to me!" he exclaimed.

Ulric flirtatiously linked arms with Manabe as they headed back into the city. 

"Mama! Auntie Edina wants to take us outside to try these new weapons out. Can we?" Teana pleaded. She, Pan, Revah, and Mikki were wielding enchanted weapons.

"Sure, but be careful. Manabe said there's a slime outbreak somewhere. Don't leave your aunt's side, okay?" Kanae urged them.

"Relax. They're in good hands! The slimes'll make for good target dummies" Edina summoned two death knights to their awe and joy.

While they left, Suvee and Kanade returned to Kanae's side. They each held a small, soft wooden sword and shield to play-fight with.

"What do you say we go to daycare to show your friends your new toys?" Kanae asked.

Their excitement suddenly left them, and Kanae couldn't fathom why. She searched Arenade's face for an answer.

"About that…" Arenade looked away.

Kanae ordered the guards to bring Gretchen Redbaron up to her room. Meanwhile, they went to the school which doubled as a daycare when classes weren't in session. There were children everywhere. Headmistress Marnie and her teachers had bags under their eyes.

"Were there always so many children?" Kanae gaped.

The schoolyard, the school backyard, and in every classroom… crawling with children between the ages of two and six.

"Birth rates exploded over the last five years," Arenade said with both hands on her hips. "Many of them are finally hitting the age for preschool. You're only seeing the ones here, there's a whole lot more and people are still pumping out babies!"

Marnie dragged her feet up to them with a child clinging to her back, and holding two more in each hand. "Terribly sorry to ask you of this, your majesty, but the school will need more funding and teachers to keep up. I fear this will only worsen over the next decade…"

"Why aren't people drinking anti-fertility potions?" Kanae asked.

With Rosaline and other alchemists living in the city, there should be plenty to go around. They would be making bank, too.

"Even the nursery ward at the church is almost to capacity with women in labor! What were you expecting when one of the Eminence of Sin's tenants is telling people to bang like rabbits? Coupled with limited anti-fertility potions and Ehmvier being one of the most affordable places to live, of course this happened! Three hells, you have six kids!" Arenade harshly reminded Kanae.

"Okay, I get it. Stop mom-shaming me! So, we have an overpopulation problem to solve… What's the best way to make sure we're not drowning in babies over the next ten years?" Kanae asked.

"In Rotandrix, the heartland of drakelings and salamanders, drakeling parents with more than one offspring pit their children against each other in battle when they come of age to establish a pecking order. The sole victor lays claim to the family estate, and the defeated must seek their own glory elsewhere. I am the latter, having lost to my eldest brother," Esta explained to everyone's shock, especially Headmistress Marnie.

Suddenly, Suvee and Kanade drew their toy swords at each other.

"The Commonwealth is mine, Kanade! Surrender to me!" Suvee exclaimed, but Kanade dealt a swift bonk to her younger sister's forehead and came out the victor.

"It's my win," Kanade said calmly.

The dark elven daughter of Kanae and Noah began to tear up. "But… But I don't want to leave Kanade…" 

"I won't make you leave, Suvee." Sighing, Kanade put down her sword and shield to hug Suvee.

"Hmm. This is heartwarming, but it was the complete opposite of how my brother acted towards us. There was a lot more taunting and laughter involved," Esta said, shutting her eyes and frowning as she recalled those memories.

"Don't even think about turning these kids into gladiators!" Arenade drew both girls into her arms to comfort them.

Kanae expelled a laborious sigh. "Alright, I'll think of something. For now, we'll increase funding to expand the school and hire more teachers."

In order to resolve the overpopulation crisis that loomed over the horizon, Kanae invited the brightest minds and leadership of the Commonwealth to meet. Around the meeting hall were Arenade, Parn, Rosaline, Ichi, and Lilith. Esta stood behind Kanae, but Arenade prohibited her from giving input.

"We have a problem," Kanae began to kick off the discussions.

"It's the demons, isn't it? Are they finally putting their backs behind a full assault?" Parn asked, shaking in his seat.

"Worse— the Commonwealth is having too many babies!" she declared.

Most of them gasped, then expressed confusion.

"Mistress, I thought we were gathered here to discuss how to deal with demons mobilizing up north?" Lilith asked.

Kanae nodded. "We will. Eventually. This takes precedence. If we're going to be drafting a sizable force soon, then half the population being pregnant complicates things."

"Does that mean I should stop having babies?" Ichi raised his hand to ask.

"Wait… You're still having children? How many are you up to now?" she inquired reluctantly.

"Nine… with four more coming…"

"Thirteen?!" the entire room cried.

"Kanae literally told me to keep having babies with the gaurs, so they keep producing milk!" Ichi fired back.

"This is exactly the problem!" Arenade rose from her seat in a huff. "Each of those gaurs is a powerhouse of a fighter. Being pregnant takes them out of commission for almost a year!"

"Rosaline… Can you and your apprentices increase production on anti-fertility potions?" Kanae asked as she buried her head into her hands.

"We cannot! First of all, there are far too many people than we can supply. I also cannot be bothered to continue making the same potions. Alchemical perfection cannot be reached by stagnation, only progress!" Rosaline exclaimed.

This was getting nowhere.

"Everyone out," Kanae ordered. "That includes you, Esta. Ichi, you stay. I think we need to have a little talk about your relationship with the gaurs."

While they were leaving, Ichi hung his head in shame. Once the last person left and the door had shut, Kanae went to take the seat next to her old friend.

"Thirteen, huh?" Kanae eyed him.

"If you're worried about whether they're being looked after, I have been! The ladies know it. I work at the stables most of the day anyway." Ichi's shoulders slackened. "Man, things were easier when I was just using sex toys, at least they didn't get pregnant…"

A bulb lit up in Kanae's head.

"That's it!" Kanae shouted.

"What's it?" Ichi stared at her in dismay.

"You can't get pregnant from sex toys. People don't use them as often because sex with each other is a lot more fun. Then what they need is protection!" she explained.

"Protection? That's what anti-fertility potions are for. It's not like we can find condoms at your local convenience store like in Japan," he said.

"We don't need to. We're entrepreneurs and innovators, remember? Maybe instead of sex toys, I can shape slimes into condoms!"

The gears were turning in Ichi's head. It made the most sense. Slimes were a lot more abundant than ingredients to make anti-fertility potions. They were malleable and could be shaped into all sorts of things. So, why not condoms?

"Okay, one problem. We stopped making sex toys a while ago because of the whole Protectorates fiasco. Where are we getting more now?" Ichi asked.

"I think Edina went to take care of the slime outbreak," Kanae recalled.

The sun was beginning to set when the necromancer returned. Her death knights hauled each hauled two large burlap sacks slung over their shoulders. Teana, Pan, Revah, and Mikki were nowhere to be seen.

"Where are my daughters?" Kanae asked with arms folded.

"You worry about 'em too much. We split up at the adventurer's hall. They're with Nelly right now," Edina said.

Kanae breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't just the safety and prosperity of the Commonwealth that she had to worry about. There were her children, too.

"Anesan, are those…?" Ichi pointed to the sacks.

"Oh, these? All dead slimes from the outbreak east of the brook. Thought I bring them back because even low level slimes are worth a bit of money," Edina said.

"That's perfect! Let's try making some condoms with them," Kanae insisted.

The squirreling cocked her head. "The fuck's a condom?"

They returned to the castle and occupied Edina's room for privacy. The gaudy place had a common theme— bones. While the furniture was nice and expensive, that they were decorated with bones made them appear less so. Like a fancy wooden chair in which the legs were swapped out with leg bones. Or the gold chandelier on the ceiling that had candles melting upon skulls.

"This place gives me the creeps…" Ichi mumbled as his eyes darted at Edina's skeletal minions going around, tidying up the place.

While their minotaur test subject waited on the bed, Kanae and Edina completed several condom prototypes of this world. A single blue slime corpse created three regular-sized condoms. Using the whole corpse of a red one, they created one large-sized condom. Stretchy to suit many different sizes, thin enough that it almost feels like it isn't there, and— hopefully, the most important part— tough enough not to break.

"This looks stupid," Edina said.

"Stupid problems call for stupid solutions, and it's better than nothing. We're ready if you are, Ichi." Kanae walked up to the bed where he was sitting with both legs parted. The large, minotaur cock that once fucked her silly was the best stress test for a condom. She cast Turn Horny on him, willing his dick to its full glory.

A minotaur's babymaker was a filler, not a grower. The size stayed the same, but it had filled with blood and became a lot thicker. Like solid rock. Kanae slipped the condom on and stretched it down the length of Ichi's dick. Unfortunately, it had only reached a third of the length before stopping.

"Damn, buddy. Guess we're gonna have to use the XXL," Edina belted a laugh.

Kanae ripped the condom away and pulled out the red one. This time, it stretched all the way down to the base. A snug fit.

"Oh, wow! This feels exactly like when I first wore a condom!" Ichi exclaimed.

"And when did you ever have the need to wear a condom back then?" Kanae eyed him dubiously.

"I-I tried one on… for science. Never for… yeah." He fell silent and started twiddling his thumbs.

"Time for the real test, right? You need to make sure this thing doesn't rip or pop?" Edina asked.

Ichi's eyes lit up. "Am I about to have sex with one of you?"

"Yeah." Kanae lifted her tail which snapped open into a wet and sticky tunnel. "We're having sex alright."

"What the hell is that?!" he mooed in terror.

Kanae clamped her tail pussy down on Ichi's dick, turning his cries of fear into gasps of pleasure. His trunky legs began to tremble as she pushed deeper. Thankfully, her tail was a lot more elastic than the one between her legs. It didn't hurt at all. In fact, she collapsed to her knees and shuddered in ecstasy.

"Hahh… I'm going to cum just sucking on this thing…" Kanae moaned.

"You're going to cum…? It feels like I'm getting milked by the best pussy in the world, and I… I'm about to— oooh!" Ichi threw his head back and climaxed.

The disappointing lack of warmth from not having the cum gush into her tail was proof that it worked. Kanae pulled out. The condom had inflated with cum and looked like a water balloon. It must be a whole bucket's worth.

Edina jumped on Ichi's legs and ripped the condom off, tied the top, and flung it around in a circle over her head. "It worked! This is great. Like the sex toys, I bet we can make a killing off these! Convince people to have as much sex as they want so they have a ton of babies, then create a solution with a new product. Damn, Kanae. You're a genius."

"That's not the point. This has to be widely accessible and affordable if we want to solve the overpopulation prob—" Kanae reared back as the cum-filled sack almost smacked her face. "Hey, stop that! Quit swinging the condom like it's a bola!"

"What's the problem? The whole point of a condom is it doesn't—"

The condom tore, painting Kanae white in a load of hot minotaur ejaculate down to her feet. She glared at the slightly apologetic squirreling, who held the now-torn condom.

"Edina…" Kanae growled, opening her tail wide in front of the squirreling.

"Wait, I'm sorry— mmrrrpph?!"

Kanae clamped down on Edina's face and began draining her relentlessly.
