A large campfire was fitted in the centre of the village; although it was huge, the current population was barely above a village.
In the centre was the black pillar; sitting beside it at the head of the table was Zell, with a strange dining order; for the starter, he sat with Anya, Tessa, Rika and Griselda, eating together as the other's kept their distance.
For the main course, Cryska, Alizée, Elisé and Edelgard sat at his table, serving him the meat and fish dishes alternatively; somehow, despite normally bickering, they got along much better.
"Zell, are you going to let our Lupus tribe have the southern forest all to ourselves!?" Edelgard asked, her little face slightly red from the sweet white wine.
She liked fish more than meat, enjoying some of the strange monster fish that resembled kippers and snappers in Asteria, but were now triple the size.
"Hmmm, well, it would be best for you to start in the central area, slowly moving out, as there are many monster nests and small dungeons and dens hidden, okay?"
"Don't rush. Make sure to ask help from Elizabeth or Cynthia when you need to."
"Hmmm~ that stupid fox will steal time with you away from me!"
"Okay, okay~ eat your potatoes."
Zell appreciated the more mature members like Elisé, Alizée and Cryska, who helped serve him side dishes, spooned his meat, or sometimes offered him some of their wine or favourite dishes.
He was full; only eight women were pampering him, and many more were waiting for attention as he realised just how bad he'd been.
"What are your plans, Alizée? Elisé?" Zell asked, swallowing the last of the main course, now spending some time having small talk with the four.
"Hmmm, I'd like to spend all day in bed with you, honestly... Haha~ but probably set up a new training dojo, with all the strongest of each race, make them teach their skills and styles to the various rookies and weaker members of our guild."
"What do you think?" She asked, her foot stroking against his thigh under the table.
'It's almost identical to my idea, but better as I only thought to have her and Elisé training people.'
"It's a great idea, start from tomorrow, maybe make a reward system for those that do well and especially for those who offer to train others, whether it's money, amour, or something else, but don't go too overboard."
"Nnn... I already know my reward fufu~."
Elisé looked at her different daughter, noticing that she now always showed her faint black wings, no longer ashamed of her different aura, which made her feel relaxed before she returned her gaze to Zell, her heart fluttering as her lips opened.
"I want your child."
"!!!" Elisé suddenly covered her mouth before turning away; her eyes looked shocked at what she said, but she refused to return it.
Although she was powerful, Elisé was a support type, unlike her mother and daughter; she was strong, but her sense for battle was average at best for a fairy, spending over a thousand years and was inferior to her daughter of 400 or so years.
"Hmmm... Maybe when there is a bit more time to arrange it." Zell didn't deny her thoughts, only finding this woman more amusing, as he planned to get revenge for the time she ate his virginity as a young virgin.
'Damn, gilf was too sexy...'
He was about to ask Cryska, but she smiled, tossing some meat to one of the many female wolves she had tamed; they all started to show strange changes, slightly demonic in colour and nature, with little wings seeming to form on their back slowly.
"I want to collect more of these cute wolves, then make a squad of wolf riders who can scout the forests when there are many demon attacks. We need rapid-moving forces. Honestly, I hope you can let Veronica join me if possible..."
"Umu, as long as you don't exert yourself too much; Veronica also mentioned enjoying riding the white wolves with you. Ask her yourself; it's a big commitment as you'll be our eyes and ears on the borders."
Although there were many other girls to see and deal with for dessert, he chose a select few, Nora, Colette, Cynthia, Garnet and Elizabeth, who arrived late but only asked for his blood as dessert.
The evening slowly approached the close, making Zell feel exhausted; he swayed away from the bonfire as the women asked if they could discuss where they would be stationed.
It was agreed that each week there would be a new group who lived in the main village, rotating around all of his women. Those in the village had permission to sleep with him at night. In contrast, those in the border villages would have to wait until he visited them during the daytime.
Tonight's duty was Yinfra and her sister's Avatar.
They followed behind Zell as he entered his large wooden manor; unlike the other buildings, this one alone was sturdy, with several rooms, 5 bedrooms, 2 studies, 1 meeting room, a dining room and 2 kitchens.
He wondered why they made it so big, but the various women shouted at him, saying sometimes it would be fun to have various women sleeping over at his manor as a reward or for fun.
Each week, 1 bedroom was his with a massive double bed, created with wooden pillars and well-crafted slats, a soft mattress far beyond a double kingsize, making it annoying to roll from one side to the other.
The other rooms would be shared between the women on duty who stay in the village each week.
"Are you tired, darling?" Yinfra asked, watching Zell drop onto his wooden chair, the soft white cushion's squashed behind him, and his hands fumbled through some parchment and paper.
He quickly pulled them both towards him, resting each on his muscular thighs, holding their waist tightly.
"I am tired, but having two cute lynx's beside me is all I need."
"Stupid, why are you trying to play it cool..." Yanfra muttered as her body stuck to him like glue, her blue hair shimmering in the faint moonlight, a smile pasted on her usually blank face.
"Heh... you really can't get enough of us, can you?"
The two watched as his arms stretched around them; holding a pen, he began to detail all the things mentioned today, the southern forest for Edelgard and Griselda, Cryska and Veronica making a wolf rider scout corps.
The two elven tribes covered the flanks of their village, also detailing something that made both girls smile gently, remembering the old days when he would cook in his kitchen for them.
He wrote what foods each girl seemed to like, those they disliked, and plans to get them to eat the healthy greens they avoided.
It was boiling the mushrooms before hiding them in the stew, stuffing them with other tasty things, or hiding peas in the mash, evil methods like that.
A single man, with two beautiful feline girls massaging his sides, as the crackle of flames and scribbling of a pen writing filled the room as the moon began to dominate the skies.
"ahhh.... forgive me, girls..." He yawned, stretching as the pair slept with their chins against his shoulder.
"Don't worry... Shall we go to bed? It'll be a long day tomorrow..." Yinfra said, her hand stroking his inner thigh while Yanfra was quiet, looking at the plan he made while they were sleeping.
She only picked up the key points, making her heart throb rapidly.
Kill the Divines...
Save My Cute Yanfra
Marry them both with everyone's blessing.
Zell chuckled, enjoying the soft fingers of Yinfra that began to slide into his cloth pants while he stood up, his legs tightening as both women were held in each arm, slowly moving towards the bed after he blew out the candles.
That night, the strange yowls of a pair of felines filled the village for several hours before the hoarse cries slowly dampened, and peace was returned to the world.
-
The next morning he found himself alone in the huge bed, feeling a little lonely.
"Hmmmm, maybe one of the studies can be made into a small sleeping room for when no women are around.." Zell thought as he went to the dining room; the scent of cooked food attracted him.
A woman humming came from the kitchen, followed by Elisé, who seemed to be guiding several girls on how to cook breakfast correctly.
'Haha... this is the life, but I can be too lax... Should I run into the forest and kill some monsters for the village meal later?' It seems they might take a while.
Just as he stepped out of his manor, dashing towards the forest extremely fast, each step was nearly 2 metres due to his change in stature and longer legs.
However, a slightly husky female voice sounded the moment before he entered the forest.
"Zell... I want to fight against you."
He was shocked there was someone in the village able to keep up with him; right now, none of the women could match his speed without using magic, but Edelgards mother was merely running with her powerful muscles as she was a meter behind him.
Zell slowed his body, curious about what she meant.
"Oh, how come, isn't there Evelyn and Elisé?"
She shook her head before moving closer to him; her body tightened momentarily before lunging towards him with a powerful jab.
Yet his eyes merely flicked to the muscles in her arm, then her fist as his head tilted slightly, dodging it with the least effort, as his knee smashed into her stomach, sending her rolling backwards, spit and air knocked out of her lungs.
"I need more than just you; get Evelyn and Alizée, and we'll train daily; there's no use for us to train against the weaker women; only pick the strongest for our training sessions, okay?"
With a bitter face, she turned away and began to limp towards the village, but her thick bushy tail was swaying rapidly, a clear sign of her happiness.
'I need to get stronger... Now I can devour the power of anything I kill... There's no reason not to train whenever I am free!"
"Lets leave the weaker monsters for the other girls to improve with... The game system will soon be obsolete."
