Chapter 52: Glare – Part 1

Chapter 52: Glare – Part 1

Today is the 23rd.

I wake up to Lina's gloomy eyes staring right into mine. She touches my cheek lovingly and smiles. In this exact moment, I orgasm inside Alissa's mouth.

I cast a quick [Clean] in my mouth and start my morning kisses with Lina. Her shy tongue searches for mine and we rub on one another with the same tenderness of her touch on my cheek.

I give the usual kisses to all the other girls, including Aoi, and we have our breakfast on the beds.

Hana's "Wisdom" increased by 1 (now 13).

"Yeah, I'm totally getting smarter," Hana says with a proud smile.

"So, what are we doing today?" Klein asks excitedly.

"I want to research in the morning and in the afternoon we need to get Hana's armor, then I have to give the Weeper proofs of extermination to the hunter's guild," I say.

"I... want to knit," Lina says.

Roxanne claps the tips of her hands excitedly. "I'll buy some cloth and we can fit Ciel," she says.

"Why me?" Ciel asks and frowns.

Roxanne flicks her hand dismissively. "Your clothes are criminally unsexy. You need to show off your curves more."

"Maybe I don't want to look 'sexier.'"

"Nonsense. A hungry look from any of us and you turn on your sadistic-teasing mode in a mere moment."

Oh boy. I approve of this.

Alissa picks up on my excitement and turns to Ciel. She looks at her with puppy eyes and says, "Please, for me?"

Ciel looks at Alissa a little incredulous and suspicious. "F-for you...?" She asks and Alissa nods, her fox ears and orange hair wobble along with her head. Ciel groans. "Eh, fine, whatever. Might be fun."

"Oh, yes, it will," Roxanne says with a predatory smile.

I look at Hana and Klein and they shrug. "Sounds fun," Hana says and Klein nods.

I look at Alissa. "I'll be writing Selina's adventuring diary," she says.

Then I turn to Aoi. "I want to fly. Can you show [Fly] to me again?" She asks. Her eyes have a suspicious puppy-like glint to them.

"Sure."

"You know [Fly]?" Klein asks.

"Yep. It's one of my special abilities as a hero. I don't use it because I can't properly control it."

"Ooh..."

"Here's another one of my abilities that you need to know. I can summon monsters with [Summoning Magic]."

She stares blankly at me. "What?"

"I can summon monsters."

"How is that a thing?"

"Well, it just is."

She looks at Ciel. "That isn't heresy?"

Ciel smiles and says, "Whoever invented [Summoning Magic] was a genius. Using the tools of the God of Destruction against him will never be heresy."

Klein chuckles and shakes her head. "Well, it's not like I knew how [Summoning Magic] worked to begin with."

"So, you see, I'm a little paranoid. Whenever the girls go out to do their things, I summon two monsters for safety," I say and summon a Shad and a Holly.

Klein jumps when she sees a shadow move to the middle of the bed.

"That's a Symbol of Darkness, a monster that I killed once. Think of it as an anti-assassin guard for you." I grab my little Holly and extend my hand so Klein can see it better. "This is a Beholder, a monster that has very, very good eyesight that I use to scout and have a better view of the battlefield."

She squints her eyes and gets very close to the Holly. "It's so hard to even look at this one," she says.

"Precisely. This is why nobody can sneak up on us while we sleep."

"That's just so..."

"Overpowered?" Ciel asks and sends me a knowing look.

"Well, yeah, I guess... Wait... do you think this is some kind of card game?" Klein asks and looks at Ciel in disbelief.

"Uh, no. Of course not," Ciel answers with a stiff expression.

"You are all insane..." Klein mutters and looks away.

"Anyway..." I continue, "This means that if you want to talk to me, no matter how far apart we are, you can just talk to your own shadow."

Klein pouts and crosses her arms, pressing them against her perky brown breasts. "Did you watch me change all this time?"

I smirk. "What do you take me for? A pervert?" I snort and look away, then she shows me her tongue.

I cup her cheek and push a small amount of my soul through my fingers, which makes her inhale deeply. Then I approach my face to hers and kiss her lips, sucking on her energetic tongue.

She leans into the kiss and after only a few seconds her arms wrap around my chest. I pull her closer and feel her perky nipples rub against me. I push my soul through my tongue and she moans, sending a rush of blood down to my dick.

I break the kiss and see she's already out of breath. Her tail wraps around my waist, trying to keep me from leaving; her eyes look at me with expectancy and a warm smile.

I cup a breast and smile. "Research can wait."

While Klein recovers in my arms, I pull out Ted and Suzy.

"So, we are leaving to buy some simple cloth," Roxanne announces.

"Ah!" Klein exclaims. Her long tail shoots up and even her round monkey ears twitch. "Wait for me!"

Klein jumps out of bed and hurries to put on her clothes. Alissa comes over to me to take Klein's place in my arms. She puts her journal on the pillow and reads it over while making the occasional correction.

I kiss her face and neck repeatedly, making her giggle. Her fluffy tail and legs sway happily.

"Ah, before you go. Hana, come here," I say and she dutifully obeys. "I'm going to cast [Bind]. Clear your mind and don't resist."

"Oh, yes!" Her scales flicker with excitement. She bends over the bed so I can reach her.

"[Bind]?" Klein asks. Her tail scratches her temple in confusion. Ciel starts explaining to her what we are doing.

I cast the spell and pull Hana's soul into mine. Her soul is very heavy, but it's lighter than last time when I had used [Bind] on Roxanne.

I wonder if my 'Sanity' increase is helping.

Hana's soul enters mine and I feel a light "tickling" which makes me want to pull on Hana's soul-string.

Hana frowns, "That's it?"

"Not done yet," I say.

I pull her string and her bundle feels... "intense," as if we are constantly kissing. I dive into her mind and the feeling only increases.

Wild memories and a lot of dicks flash through my mind, most of them are mine, a good part are imaginary, and there are only a few which I don't recognize.

I find her "talking" area and pull it back into my mind so that we can talk.

"Hello?"

"WOLFY!"

The Weepers give us a few gold coins each, their blood is very valuable for [Alchemy]. We could have gotten more, but I gave a good amount of the blood to Roxanne for her experiments.

While inside, the three [Bind]s start to get even more annoying and the girls notice my feelings seeping through it. I even have to control Hana's blanket again since it's so easy for her to resist the [Bind].

When I go back and feel the effects of Alissa's blessing affecting me again, the three [Bind]s return to being manageable.

"Well, now I know that my 'Sanity' affects how well I can manage the [Bind]s," I say.

"Sorry, Wolfy, I'll try to submit to you harder," Hana says, a little sad.

"I find it hard to believe that that's possible," Roxanne says with a raised eyebrow.

"If it ever gets too annoying I can just undo the [Bind]," I say with a shrug and Hana nods.

We move on to the shops closer to the castle and find a shop for facial products.

I look at Alissa and smirk. "You are getting your makeup, whether you like it or not."

She rolls her eyes and smiles faintly.

The shop smells pretty. The overly well-groomed elves remind me of the same beauty boutiques on Earth. Though everyone looks amazing and perfect at first sight, they use so much makeup that it ruins the illusion the more you look at them.

The girls put on some basic face powder and eye shadow and there's an instant change. Though Roxanne and Lina seem to benefit the most out of it and Hana comes just behind them.

Then we find a public park and have some tea under the sun while listening to the birds chirping.

For the first time, I see Gify (comically) fly around, chasing some birds, then he frolics in the grass with the other nature spirits.

He gives me a glare but ignores my jab.

After that, Hana, Ciel, and Klein go to the hunter's guild training grounds; Roxanne, Lina, and Aoi return to the inn for more sewing; and Alissa and I follow them to continue my research.

Aoi's hands are much more dexterous now, so she can even help with some things. Her ability to become very small is also advantageous since she can do much more delicate tasks that none of the girls can manage.

While observing Gify pop in and out of existence with my soul-touch, I cast [Materialize] repeatedly and follow Gify's advice in how to turn my soul completely solid so that I can grasp things.

Mana is an infinitesimal particle that has only a place in space as a physical property. It doesn't have physical substance, so I have to create the abstract concept of "mass" and add it to my mana, then I have to organize those particles of mana in a way that they fill up my soul and "attach" to it.

[Materialize] adds "sources" to my soul that emit photons, which is why it gives a glow to spirits. I have to take these "sources" and turn them into mana particles with mass.

Concepts, enchanting, and unique magic. These three things are all about visualization. Visualizing the exact effect you want in your mind and you can use mana to bend reality to your wishes.

"Roxanne, what is a Warped Reality?" I ask.

The two girls stop whispering to one another and turn to me. "Well, it's like the thing you did that made it rain flaming leaves that left a wet spot where they touched. You used mana recklessly to bend the laws of reality to your will, but that's not allowed, that's the domain of the Gods," Roxanne says.

"Wait, laws of reality? What is magic then? Is it different?"

"Yeah. Altering reality is changing how a specific object works. Altering the laws of reality is changing how every instance of that specific object works."

"Why doesn't anybody study it, then?"

She smiles wryly. "It's too dangerous and difficult to control. Some circles of magi might try some things with it, but it's always small and temporary."

"Like how I use [Godly Language] to alter reality?"

"Kind of. [Godly Language] is still more about altering reality itself than it's laws. And even then, it's like the difference between system magic and unique magic. [Godly Language] is much more controlled than what I've heard about from those circles of magi. Those who try to alter the laws of reality usually don't live long."

"Wow."

"Yeah. Well, it's actually really hard to even alter the laws in a small area. What you did was really crazy and impressive."

"Gih."

I lower my head and look away. "Alright, I'm sorry. I didn't know [Redirect Mana] could be that dangerous."

Roxanne shrugs. "Well, now you know," she says and Lina nods.

I manage to create a faint solidification. My hand still goes through it as the "mass" is not exactly "solid," so it feels like my hand is being squeezed slightly.

I play around with my blue, glowing tentacles and accidentally arouse Roxanne by touching her horn. It seems that until it's fully solid, my soul will still cause pleasure when it touches someone.

After Alissa, Lina and I deal with her, the girls come back right on time for the sacred bath.

Together, we wash the sweaty Ciel, Hana, and Klein. I don't really have a scent fetish, but Hana's was kind of "alluring." Running my sponge over her perfect body never gets old.

After rinsing some of the soap off of her, I suck on her nipples like a newborn. Then I lower to her abs, which are as enticing to nibble and lick as Ciel's thighs. Then I finally reach her lower bush and have my meal.

Not satisfied with Roxanne, I let Hana crush my waist with her pounding me in the amazon position.

We have our last dinner in Goloria and savor all we can. Salads, pies, casseroles, juices, sweets, and meat. Everything is always so delicious that it's to die for.

With a sigh, I dip my not-grape in the flavored cream and eat the last fruit.

"We'll come back to Goloria sometime, right?" Lina asks.

"Yeah. The 'Legado' dungeon is closer to Goloria than Escanso," I say.

She nods and says, "Good, I want to go to the library again someday."

Look at that, my little girl is demanding things for herself!

After dinner, we play around a little more.

I watch the girls play Civil War, it's like a mix of "Magic: The Gathering" with chess. Fun, but kind of chaotic.

Then we go to sleep since we are waking up early tomorrow.
