Among the Clouds - Part 2

Lina's book is about the elven Twin Warriors… aaand it's basically yaoi for fujoshis, so I eventually tune it out.

Far away to the south, we notice the High Forest comes to an end, and we slowly continue to inch closer to the edge. We'll likely reach the western border at the end of the day at this pace.

Ciel notices a large hole in the sea of green under us, and we start guessing whether that's Ostoum or Ostodos. Lina is the one with the most geographical knowledge out of all of us, but she's too 'enthralled' by her book to join the conversation.

"Send a summon there and see if you can find the Red Leaf Inn," Klein actually offers a good idea, then she frowns and narrows her eyes in suspicion. "You're making fun of me through your mental communication, aren't you?"

"What makes you think we'd do such a horrible thing?!" I exclaim with an exaggerated, fake offended frown.

And she turns her pout towards Ciel. "Because she's looking at me with pitying eyes while everyone else has such a mean air to them."

Ciel turns her face away while we all glare at the little tattle-tale. She's too easily read, so she really has to work on that.

I extend a tentacle and pat Klein's head to appease her. "Don't worry about that, we all love you very much."

Alissa suddenly hugs her from behind and sneaks a hand under her shirt, then fondles her athletic body while giving her neck a few kisses. "We just like to toy with you, in more ways than one," she whispers into Klein's round monkey ears.

The walls of the tent are raised to let us see around us, and Anton is drinking with Azador at the other edge of the Floater, so we'd rather save him from seeing his daughter in this state because neither of them have an incest fetish that we could exploit.

Aoi repositions her large draconic body to block the rest of the crew from seeing the molesting, then Romy and Hukarere also take up strategic positions to block the sight of us. Unfortunately, the two Companions are on duty, so it'd be improper to ask them to join the lewdness.

Then Hana's lust and sadism activate as she watches the slutty little monkey let herself be molested by Alissa. My fiery wife thinks that her best friend needs a spanking and a reminder of who owns her body.

But I turn my eyes to the depraved dragonkin and unleash my draconic rage on her, "Oh? She needs a spanking? What about you and your incessant thirst for your own brother? You even involved Ciel in your 'teasing.' It's like you want to make me jealous."

Her vertical-slitted eyes widen, and her muscles tense up from my sudden attack. "That was just the God of Luck playing with us," she tries to evade.

I use [Telekinesis] to gently take Lina off my lap, then I stand up and pull out the choking belt as I sternly state, "You deliberately showed your pussy and Ciel's nectar to him."

The angel blushes and hugs Ted tighter while Alissa merely grins cheekily and intensifies Klein's molestation.

"You enjoyed that, didn't you?" Hana strikes back in defiance with a fearsome grin, but then she glances at the belt worriedly as I slowly put it around her neck.

And I explain with a husky but measured tone, "Of course I did. Embarrassing Ciel while asserting dominance over other men through sexual situations definitely tastes as sweet as a pussy… but only when I do it." Then I suddenly tighten the belt as hard as I can, and she grabs it to try to give herself a bit of room to breathe.

I pull the strap like a leash and force her to watch as Alissa's fingers slowly undress Klein with practiced ease, then I put one of my feet on Hana's back and lean on my knee.

She grips the belt harder and grits her teeth in anger as she glares at me, but I just grin back and whisper sadistically, "You're growing too rebellious, so you are the one who needs a reminder of who owns your body. I expose your nakedness whenever I want, and I embarrass Ciel through a sexual situation whenever I want, but I'm not unreasonable. If you beg, then I'll allow you to abuse Ciel in my stead while I watch."

"What…?" The luscious chocolate wife in question quietly whines, but she's got no say in this matter.

Hana's muscular body; her perfectly cared for and voluminous mane-like red hair; her emerald, glistening scales; her intense yellow eyes; and her lightly tanned, unblemished skin. She has some of that "dignified" air just like Yunia does, though with a different flair, but it still tastes just as sweet to abuse her.

The angry, defiant face she makes is just so incredible that I feel like cumming on her and making another painting. Hana is a fierce and confident woman, so it feels amazing to break her and turn the warrior into a willing piece of meat whose only desire is to breed.

Roxanne pulls down Hana's pants and panties, then I grow a menacing, painful-looking cock and hand it to the eager succubus. Hana only gets a glimpse at it, and she shudders in anticipation.

I walk over to Klein and pull my cock out, then Alissa spreads the slutty monkey girl's lips for me, and I mount her.

Roxanne forces the horrific cock in, and Hana almost squeals in pain. I keep the leash tight, giving her just enough air to not pass out so that she's forced to watch Alissa and I breed Klein while her pussy is punished by the monstrosity.

Though this is unbelievably painful for her, [Pain Conversion] quickly makes her so wet that lewd juices drip from her every time Roxanne pulls the huge cock out.

Alissa and I take turns kissing Klein while our hands explore her athletic body and my cock plunges in and out of her tight, warm folds. Her hips move on their own, trying to match my rhythm, and her misty, lust-filled eyes dart between the two of us as they beg for more and more pleasure.

Meanwhile, Hana grunts in pain and pleasure as she's forced to orgasm repeatedly while fighting to be able to breathe, but that's not all. Her punishment is two-fold as she's also forced to watch us have our way with Klein while she's blocked from feeling or tasting anything from the monkey girl she thirsts over so much.

Alissa casts [Ignorance] on us to increase our privacy, then Yunia casts [Silence], and both girls let their voices out, but no sound can be heard.

Lina actually likes where things are going because she's allowed to read her erotic novel in silence, and the occasional glance at our sexual activities is a nice treat to rest her eyes.

Seeing me fuck another woman obviously makes Alissa horny, but since I'm going full sadist, I stop her from touching herself. I want a bit of wild, animalistic fucking later today, so she has to suffer the frustration of neglect for now.

--

I lay down Hana's almost comatose body on my lap and run my claws through her magnificent red hair, then I grow some tentacles and start massaging her hips and the muscles surrounding them.

Alissa receives the not-aloe from me, then gently fingers Hana to let the cream spread and be absorbed by every inch of her abused pussy and insides.

Roxanne lays down beside Hana and starts covering her body with kisses, slowly breathing life back into her beaten wife.

Aftercare is important when we go too hard at it so that everyone is back to 100% as soon as possible. It also establishes a clear line between "role-playing" and "real life" so that we always know which side we're on.

Hana blinks, and her eyes focus on my face, then her lips slowly part into a satisfied smile.

I lower my head and give her an upside-down kiss, the touch of our lips transmitting her love for us that she can't express with words right now because her throat is still a bit raw.

Then Anton comes to check up on Klein, and he narrows his eyes at her and Hana's suspicious behavior.

"I'll be, uh… at the cabin with the crew," he mumbles as his eyes scan her body for the subtle signs of "physical exertion." "We're allowed to drink a set amount of alcohol each day, so I'll have my share right now with the rest of the crew."

Our healers know how to use [Refresh], so, to keep morale up in this tin can without things devolving into disruptive orgies, the Chimeras use alcohol as a substitute for wild sex.

Klein clears her throat and gathers her energy for a second before she answers, "O-okay… I'll just… drink with Wolfy… if they do…" But her voice still comes out as croaky.

Anton closes his eyes and makes a peaceful face as he breathes in deeply, then he nods and exhales. "See you later," he calmly replies and smiles, then walks away without waiting for her answer.

Once he's out of hearing range, Yunia curiously questions out loud, "You think he's disappointed in her…?"

"Anton and Krysta were quite loud sometimes, so it's not like Klein is especially depraved," Hana affirms with a shrug.

"I don't want to know why you know that…" Klein mumbles tiredly.

"Unlike you, Anton has no interest in incest, so he dislikes being privy to his daughter's private life," Ciel retorts to Hana with a disapproving pout.

Roxanne snorts softly, "Heh, 'private' life."

--

We return to our previous, relaxed state, then Silvano and Caterina come up and begin sparring. They're using practice longswords, so it's nothing too strenuous, but the way they smile fiercely at each other makes Hana suddenly wake up as her heart burns with jealousy.

She turns her head towards Ciel and pleads for help. Silvano is a dangerous man because his "body count" is known to be very high among the elves. Even though Caterina seems to avoid men, you never know what might happen with someone as gorgeous as Silvano.

I cast [Regeneration] on her womb, likely regrowing her hymen once again, then Ciel sighs and casts [Heal] and [Refresh].

"I love you both," she whispers, then gives each of us a deep kiss and joins them.

A moment later, Palo also comes up, drawn by the sounds of fighting, and asks to join. The muscle-brain golden elf now makes me a bit jealous because he's also known to thirst over anything with a hole, but Hana's "disciplining" stays true as she doesn't even try to "pull on her leash."

The four of them draw the attention of the crew with their sparring, and as the pairs swap repeatedly, Hana and I both pray that Palo and Silvano develop an attraction to each other instead of the milfy Punisher.

"What if one of them falls?" Klein suddenly asks worriedly as she watches them get dangerously close to the inclined sides.

Yunia points to a bored-looking winged Chimera leaning on his staff as he watches the duels, then she kindly explains, "He'll save them. From what I understand, they let the crew up here as another measure to prevent boredom."

I frown in confusion and chime in, "This isn't a long voyage, though, so they could endure it for three days, right?"

"Sandoro wants this expedition to serve as a performance evaluation for the integration between the Chimera crew and the Lordsguard."

I hum in thought, then I turn to the Companions and request, "A little bit of privacy, please."

They nod diligently and take a few steps away from us.

Then I look back at the girls and continue, "Back on Earth, soldiers on long voyages would just be forced to 'endure' it. Holding back from acting on your urges is a way to show discipline."

Yunia snorts and shakes her head. "Sounds like a waste of energy. Discipline is only required while on duty, and as long as you live in an orderly fashion, any further demands just cause unnecessary pressure," she categorically states.

I shrug and reply, "In this world, people are more relaxed about things in general, but there's no magic to clear the body of alcohol on Earth, so if the soldiers got drunk and then the camp was attacked, things would go bad."

"Could they at least fuck?" Hana asks through [Bind] while she waits her turn, and Ciel relays her words so that Klein can hear them.

I smile wryly. "Only men became soldiers, so there was a lot of gay fucking, but then the religions kind of outlawed gay sex, so…"

"W-w-what…?! Outlawed…?!" Roxanne exclaims, flabbergasted.

I scratch my horn as I explain, "A massive simplification, but in essence, yes, no gay sex, no alcohol."

Yunia frowns in horror and looks at the other wives, who all share similar emotions. "That sounds horrible. I believe more than half our Lordsguard would've never wanted to join if they had to abstain from gay sex and alcohol."

Klein gives me a worried look and points out, "I haven't heard much about your home realm, but it seems like you don't hold a lot of love for it."

I chuckle softly. "It's a complicated matter. There's a lot of bad shit going on back there… like, a lot of shit, but it's also my home, and the specific region I was born in is quite nice."

"Earth was dying," Ted suddenly speaks, catching us all by surprise.

"Well, yes, but… it could still be saved…" I shrug.

Ciel gives me a worried look and shyly asks, "S-shouldn't you go back, then…?"

I immediately shake my head and emphatically decline, "Nope, don't wanna. Seriously, I've vowed to remain here. I don't want all this shit I went through to just be training to make me into Captain Planet. I'd seriously kill myself or find a way to return to Rupegia if the Gods shat me back to Earth."

"Let's just not talk about suicide, please," Alissa pleads, looking very uncomfortable.

I pat her head and play with furry orange ears. "Sorry, I won't say that again."

And after a moment of silence, Klein cautiously asks, "Can you tell me more about your home realm? You rarely mention it, and it seems like not even Osaria knows about it."

I don't actually want to talk about it, though. Maybe it's true that, overall, I really fucking hate Earth.

"We'll do it in your stead, Master," Jarn volunteers through [Bind], and I see no reason to say no to her, so the bimbo suit of armor kneels before Klein, slightly unnerving the monkey girl, and stares with her lifeless, unmoving eyes. "What do you wish to learn?"

"How was Wolfy as a child?" Klein innocently asks, her long brown tail waving freely in anticipation.

I start to get worried. "What… why would-…"

"Did he pee his bed?!" Roxanne cuts me off and grins excitedly.

Jarn nods and begins to reply, "He did whe-…"

"Oh, Gods, NO!" I shout as I put my hand over Jarn's mouth. "I have no memories of wetting the bed, how could you know anything about it?!"

"We analyzed Master Wolf's memories chronologically," Ted begins their bit.

"And we've found many fragments of childhood memories," Suzy follows like always.

"Which all have significant emotional importance to Master Wolf," and Jarn finishes.

I facepalm. This is exactly the reason why I want to give amnesia to the golem army.

"Don't answer embarrassing questions, please," I tiredly plead with a sigh.

The golems remain quiet and share a few words through [Bind].

"We know what memories were embarrassing at the time," Ted starts again.

"But not if they're still embarrassing in the present," and this time Suzy finishes.

I frown and turn to my wives, then I stare at them for long seconds, my eyes full of pain and misery as I show them my vulnerable side. "Please…" I beg like a sad little puppy wanting head pats.

Ciel, bless her soul, reflexively comforts me as she caresses my head, "Alright, we'll not abuse the golems' memories."

But Roxanne snorts. "Speak for yoursee-ACK…!" And Alissa pinches her ass.

Then the two stare intensely at each other. The fox girl wears a smile like a mask while the succubus glares defiantly, but the latter quickly decides to not face the ire of the obsessive and submissive sister-wife.

"Thank you," I honestly affirm.

"I still want to know what Wolfy was like as a child," Klein insists.

Jarn immediately replies, "My answer will take many minutes to communicate; I require a more specific question."

"What are the most intense memories you have of his childhood?" Lina suddenly chimes in.

"He was the smartest kid in his class, and he regrets acting smug about it.

"His lower height gave him grief, but the girls in his class defended him from bullying."

I had forgotten about that one…

"Wow, that sounds so like him…" Klein remarks and chuckles softly, and the wives earnestly agree with her.

"He asked every girl he found pretty to be his girlfriend, but none of them accepted until much later in his life."

"Yeah, I can see that happening, but only the first part, though," Alissa wryly remarks.

"He tried sports, but he was always left behind by the bigger, stronger, and faster children.

"His lower height led him to overcompensate by becoming aggressive and faking confidence."

"Honestly, we all fake our confidence, at least a little bit," Yunia rather shyly admits.

"I don't," Hana mumbles in reply, and Ciel relays again.

"Yeah… you're 'special,'" Roxanne innocently affirms.

Hana takes control of Jarn and makes the golem motion to pinch Roxanne's ass, who reflexively jumps away in fear.

Once the playing around is done, the bimbo golem continues, "He regrets once bullying a gir-…"

"Not that one!" I interrupt, but the damage has already been done, and the girls give me teasing smiles.

Since nobody says anything, Jarn moves on, "He had a fascination with World War Two that went away once he grew up.

"He was once called cute by his sister, but she then followed up immediately with 'but now you've grown into a little shit.'"

I smile wryly and admit, "Yeah… I remember that one. Still hurts a bit."

"He envied his brother's physical prowess and questioned whether they truly came from the same father."

"You really don't like being short, huh?" Hana remarks and gives me an internal pitying look while Ciel relays her words and pats my head. I like pats, but Hana's kind of teasing me, so I pout as I look down.

"It's why it was so easy to accept this change," I grumble back in reply and raise my claws.

Ciel gently grabs one of my hands and puts it on her lap as she kindly comforts me, "Your weredragon change is attractive, but you were already perfect as a human."

I hum softly and give her a peck. "Thank you."

--

The girls continue asking Jarn questions, and they slowly shift from my life, to how Earth is in general, and then to history, which grabs Lina's curiosity.

We gradually get closer to the edge of the High Forest, and Ultirei's Tomb's mountain range eventually becomes visible to us. A wall of grey, jagged stone sprinkled with red from the deeper sedimentary layers; molten rock that quickly solidified into crude obsidian at the bottom; and the entire mountain range is dotted with small, shining mana crystals that formed due to the high amount of mana everywhere.

It's definitely one of the Wonders of Rupegia.

Then our conversation is interrupted as a horn announces that the ship is entering code orange, and all the men on top of the ship go back inside, except for us since we can fly. A few moments later, Alissa spots a horse-sized Dragolite quickly approaching us.

A small group of winged soldiers come up and wait for it to approach, but Aoi and I feel like fucking with the oversized lizard.

She grows to elephant size while I shift into my glorious draconic form, then we both roar threateningly at it.

It flinches back, and its wings stop beating, making it fall a few meters, but then it rolls in the air like a cat and stabilizes its flight again.

It seems to be ignoring the [Monster Repellent] magic tool that the ship has, which means that it must be an old and frenzied monster wanting to commit suicide, so it's no surprise that it resumes approaching us once its fear fades away.

We roar a few more times, delighting ourselves at the sight of it being visibly shaken, but then we let the winged soldiers do their thing so that code orange can be lifted, which will allow the men to stand down.

Alissa could try to take a few shots at it, but the [Fly] gem and the active [Wind Shield] will make it harder for her to hit it.

After the men easily take care of the little worm, things return to normal, and the rest of the day passes without further incident.

As the sun sets, we finally reach the end of the High Forest and enter the small stretch of grassland before the Rakontagne mountain range, to the north of Goldcross.

Since the ship is overcrowded, it's better to land for the night and let the men make camp instead of forcing them to sleep in the cramped cabins.
