Chapter 165: The USDCA Meeting (Part-1)

I stare at Layla in stunned silence, surprised at what she just said. After a few long seconds, I open my mouth to speak.

“Pregnant...?” I ask, just to make sure that I heard her right.

Looking even more anxious, she slowly nods her head— though her eyes remain fixated on mine. I can tell that she’s worried about how I will react, and whether I will agree to it or not.

But well, her worries are for naught— there’s no need for me to make a choice here. Knowing that Layla’s life is at stake, I am more than willing to do anything that’s required of me. Even if it’s making her pregnant and taking the responsibility of being a parent at my age.

“Well, Queen Ilsevel is right,” I tell her, trying to lighten the mood with a wink. “I also think that we should start working on a more permanent solution.”

Sitting behind Layla, Rebecca’s face breaks into a wide smile as she gives me a big thumbs up.

“Are you sure?” Layla asks. “You don’t have to force yourself. I am sure we can find some other way.”

Sigh...

I put my hand behind Layla’s head and pull her into a deep kiss.

“Yes, I am definitely sure. In fact, I am so sure that we’re going to start trying for it right now. We don’t have much time now, do we?” I say, pulling my shirt off.

Layla’s face turns red instantly as she realizes what I mean.

“But Rebecca is here—“

“I will stay and help!” Rebecca quickly speaks up. “We’re both Jacob’s women, Layla. You remember what we discussed the other day, right? I think it’s time we get comfortable doing it with him in front of each other. And maybe even all of us together, someday.”

... Rebecca?

[... Rebecca?]

“...”

“O-okay,” Layla mutters shyly after a few seconds.

... Layla?

[... Layla?]

...

Wow... they were obviously getting along very well, but I didn’t know it was to this extent... Damn, I really love both of them.

[As you should, buddy. They’re gems! Gems you can have a threesome with! Hahaha!]

Gems I can... Sigh, come on, that’s your humor?

[A-Ahem]

Ignoring Pink, I focus on the gems. Future threesomes aside, I am curious to see how Rebecca’s going to ‘help’ us right now. Though well, she immediately makes it apparent that her involvement won’t be that much. Instead of removing her own clothes, she helps Layla get naked.

Oh, well...

I guess she doesn’t want to rush with the idea. Also, it’s kinda late already and all of us are pretty tired after the tour, so full-blown sex is not possible— only a very quick quickie.

Seeing the confused look on my face, Meira speaks up at once.

“Everyone will be here in a minute. You can take your seat in the meanwhile.” She leads me to the chair that’s farthest away, watching me sit down. Then, without saying anything, she turns around and exits the room— leaving me all alone.

...

Kind of a dick move to get me here when no one else has arrived, no?

[True. Let’s just hope they don’t make you wait too long.]

I mean, Meira said everyone will be here in a minute, so...

And she didn’t lie. After almost no time, the door of the room opens up again a bunch of men and women enter inside. Well, forgive me, not just any men and women, but seven of the ten most powerful being alive (plus a guy I don’t know).

Holy fuck...

Entering the room first is, of course, the White Elf queen, Ilsevel Grimzephyr, along with her attendant, Meira Trisqen. Right behind them is a voluptuous dark Elven beauty, looking stern, royal, and dignified— Leena’s mother and the Dark Elf Queen, Shalia Stormbrewer. She also has an attendant with her, a tall and handsome dark elf wearing round glasses. His name, Elred Phijor.

Right after them comes Naomi, The Great White Fox, and her attendant— sorry, that’s not her attendant. It’s Lillian, also known as The Great Shadow Fox. With her dark hair, long fox-like ears, sharp canines, and a fluffy jet-black tail, she looks bewitchingly good.

People say that she’s exactly the opposite of Naomi, but I somewhat disagree. Both of them are equally strong magically, exceptionally beautiful, and revered like goddesses among the Beastkin— only their personalities are opposite. Naomi is bubbly and likes attention, while Lillian mostly keeps to herself and is known to be cold and somewhat arrogant. And maybe because of this, they don’t get along very well.

Anyway, after them, the last person to enter the room is none other than the King of Vampires, aka, Zakira’s dad and my nightmare, Lucias Vondrack. He’s a tall and strangely thin man with shoulder-length black hair, a haughty-looking pasty-white face, and predatory blood-red eyes. He also has a male Vampire as his attendant, the only person I don’t recognize.

Hey, isn’t there something wrong?

[What?]

There are nine people here including me, but only seven chairs.

[They can bring more, can’t they?]

Sure, but it seems weird for them to be this neglectful considering that this is the USDCA meeting.

[Well, they are not even sitting down, so...]

Huh!?

As pink said, no one in the room sits down. Instead, they just stand behind four empty chairs in respective pairs— leaving only two chairs unattended (excluding mine). So now, the only person sitting in this room filled with all-powerful super-beings is this puny little me.

Shit, this is intimidating....

I wait for someone to speak up, but no one does. They just keep standing still and silent like perfect statues, not even sparing me a glance.

What is happening? Do I have to stand up as well?

[Might as well...]

...

Feeling very confused, I start getting up from my chair. But the next moment, I stop midway as the door of the room opens up again.

What the...!?

And now, the situation gets even more bizarre. More people enter the room— six to be exact— but there are all wearing long black robes with giant hoods covering their faces. Furthermore, the moment they enter the room, everyone, including the King, Queens, and Goddesses, bows down their heads— shocking the ever-living fuck out of me.
