"Hmm, so fluffy~"

I was currently resting my whole face over Merkite's big and fluffy thighs; just being here was already better than experiencing the nine heavens' enlightenment. Also, she had a very aromatic smell, like a sweet combination of honey and all kinds of wildflowers.

It must be because of the special soap and shampoo I shared with her and Urbosa. Because they have such dense and fluffy fur all over their bodies, the smell of the shampoo and soap stays much longer than on just bare skin. So they smell really nice and sweet.

"You worked hard today, there, there." Merkite was pampering me, caressing my head while giving me little kisses from time to time. "You can sleep on my thighs as much as you want, dear."

"Hmm~ Then I might take that offer." I rubbed my face on her legs. "Goodnight then~"

As I tried to sleep, however, I couldn't. I was constantly awoken by the sound of hundreds of soldiers laughing and celebrating. We had just finished the raid that happened over here. Ten Waves of Undead and ten super S-Rank Bosses, all slain easily.

The same happened over in New York and also in Nexus City, although some players arrived from higher floors, some of Level one thousand and above, and were notified after learning there was a raid. Unlike back on Earth, raids and Dungeon breaks aren't the end of the world.

Players from higher floors will quickly come to reap all of the benefits and steal the newbie's opportunities rather greedily, but at the same time they'll save the city from danger. Well, not like it even ran through any danger; there was my Primordial Nine Heaven Protection Domain set there, so the Undead were never able to get inside. I took out my phone as I received some messages from Peperina, with whom I was getting some updates about the situation.

However, before I could read anything, she called me.

"Yes? Peperina?"

"Ah, L-Lady Bing Xue! Yes, it's me! I call you to tell you that the raid here has also been finished."

"I'm so happy! Well done! I didn't have to do anything myself; it is relieving to know there are many strong people there."

"We wouldn't have been able to survive without the amazing barrier you set up, though! A lot of people don't know that yet."

"They don't really need to know anyway, dear. I'm glad you're okay."

"Y-Yes, thank you so much for saving us, though. That barrier did more than you imagined... The Monsters were simply unable to enter at all! It was amazing!"

"I bet it must have been amazing; I am quite incredible compared to the rest. I have to admit it sometimes."

I wasn't going to act humble and shy away from praise. I recognize my strength and how hard I've worked to obtain it. To brag about it and feel happy about how strong I am is not something that I won't do. In fact, it is something I will continue to do because I feel I deserve that much after everything I've gone through.

"Y-Yes, you sure are! W-Well, what are you doing now, by the by?"

"I am over at Urbosa and Merkite's tribe village; we just hunted our own wave of monsters as well, and the warriors are celebrating with ale and roasted meat."

"I see… I was wondering, err, maybe this is a bit weird…. No, never mind."

"Come on, just say it, girl."

"If you have any time in the week, would you like to hang out? I want to invite you to eat something. To thank you for what you've done for the city, of course!"

Ah, she's such a cutie.

"Of course! I would gladly accept that. I've seen your Instagram; you post a lot about food, but you're always alone eating it. Some company wouldn't be so bad, wouldn't it?"

"Y-Yes, exactly!"

"Then what day would you like?"

"Err, this weekend? Saturday?"

"Alright~ Let's meet outside the adventurer's guild then!"

"Yes! T-Thank you! I'm so happy right now! I can't believe it!"

"Hahaha, calm down, calm down, it's alright. Let's have fun together once the day comes, dear."

"Thank you… I-I have difficulty making friends because I am so nervous around people when I'm outside of my work. It's weird, isn't it? But with Lady Bing Xue, it might be different!"

"Aren't you a cutie? Alright, I hope it is different then."

"C-Cutie?!"

"Yes, you're very adorable; who wouldn't want to be your friend?"

"A-Ah, nobody had ever said such words to me… Thank you. T-Then, l-let's see by that day!"

"Yes, goodbye~"

The call was closed as I pocketed my phone back inside my Inner Realm, I looked up at Merkite, who was giving me a teasing smile. I had expected her to get a bit jealous, and I was ready to apologize, but in fact, she seemed happy.

"Was that the little rabbit girl from the adventurer's guild, dear?"

"Y-Yes… We're just friends, though; don't worry about it."

"There's nothing to worry about! I wish you the best with her as well! The more mates there are, the stronger the leader of the family usually is. Because you're so mighty, you deserve more mates."

"I-Is that so? That's quite a peculiar belief."

"Well, it originates from the belief that a strong leader of the family will also sire a lot of strong children; therefore, more mates mean more strong children, strengthening the village's foundations."

"So that's how it is... Well, I sadly can't sire children with another girl, so- Hmm, unless?"

"Unless?" Merkite suddenly started wagging her tail.

"Ahem! I-I, never mind…" I said. "I don't know if I am ready to do "that" yet."

"Whatever might that be, my love?" She wondered, feeling really curious.

"Y-You don't need to know right now- Uwagh!" She started licking my neck.

"Tell me~ Tell me~!" She continued asking me.

"Hahaha, enough, that tickles!" I laughed as she then embraced me over the grass.

We ended up rolling over the grasslands while kissing and playing like two dumb girls. Despite being such an ancient venerable, I couldn't believe how I was acting right now. These girls surely brought out my inner girl. In the end, we landed by a nearby tree, and I started kissing her neck and lips while she gave me cute little wolf noises.

"Hey, it's not like I am taking her or something, okay?" I told Merkite, feeling slightly guilty about the whole Peperina talk. "You're still my mate."

"Fufu, it's fine~" She said this as she accepted my kisses and started grasping my buttocks tightly. "I liked her too, that rabbit girl; she's really cute. I wanted to give her a little bite, but I'll bite you instead for now~" She started biting my neck gently.

"Nnggh, you…!" As I was about to get lewder while hiding beneath the tree's shadows, someone came running. Actually, two people!

"Hey! Aren't you two too relaxed? Come on, let's move back to eat lunch!" Said Urbosa, arriving just in time before Merkite were to get any lewder with me again.

"Woah! Look mommy! Papa and Auntie are getting on it!" Hekita said this while slightly curious. "Will I get a little sibling now?"

"E-Eh? I don't know…" Laughed Urbosa, slightly nervously.

"A-Ah, sorry, yes, yes, let's go eat then!" I nodded as I quickly tidied my hair back to normal and covered myself some more.

"We can continue later anyway." Merkite slapped my butt.

"Hey!" I felt both slightly offended and excited once she did that.

Leaving aside my sexual life, things continued smoothly after I saved New York. As it was already stated with Peperina, Nexus City was mostly saved by the high-level players; I had to do little to nothing to help them, only leaving the barrier I had set up a few days ago there.

As for the raid here? Well, it was easily cleared in a few hours. The amount of EXP given was enough to make most warriors gain at least a hundred more levels. Merkite and Urbosa reached Level 300 as well, so they had progressed quite nicely. My mates were definitely not going to stay weak, not at all.

Also, about the Cultivation aspect, my special technique worked wonders. It was a special Runic Arrangement I had set over the warriors' bodies, allowing them to further improve their bodies and internal fluctuation of Ki as they hunted monsters and Leveled Up.

Now most of them were about to reach the peak of Rank 1 quite easily, while my two beauties were now ready to get their Inner Core. I'll help them get it refined later, and I'll make sure to make their Cores of dual elements as well.

And about my mother? She thankfully woke up halfway through the Raid and joined the ranks of the warriors, gaining herself many levels as well. Urbosa and Merkite's grandmother also came to visit us but didn't join the battle, saying she was too old to get herself into fighting.

And about my sister and her dumb boyfriend? I helped her go pick him up using a Doppelganger, and both were now enjoying the farm right behind my mates' house.

"Hahah, no! Look, he's licking me all over the face! Ugh!" Ruby was playing with a young calf that was licking her face playfully.

"Hahaha, he's really playful. Are you hungry, little guy?" Juan patted the Wild Bull calf as the little calf gave him a kick on the legs.

BAAM!

"Argh!"

"J-Juan!"

Ruby panicked, but Juan was tough enough to not get his legs broken. The calf was unaware of what it was doing, jumping around.

That was really cute! I might reward that little calf one day.

Once we got inside the twins' house, we were greeted by a rather surprising scene: my mother making out with the twins' grandma.

"Hmm~ Ashen, w-wait, they're here!" My mother slowly pulled out her tongue from Ashen's mouth.

"Oh, my granddaughters! Good morning; it seems a lot happened today." Ashen greeted us with a firm and wise tone of voice, completely ignoring the fact that she was sucking my mother's tongue lewdly just a few seconds ago!

"Grandma! Did you have to come here to make out with our mate's mother?" Sighed Merkite, crossing her arms.

"Well, leave them be; they're part of our family nonetheless." Said Urbosa, smiling. "Usually grandma doesn't hang out with the person she spent a night with, though; are you two compatible? Hm, mother-in-law?"

"E-Eh?! I-I don't… know. She's just so fluffy and kisses really well, so… Uuh, sorry, Katherine, is this embarrassing?" My mother was trying to bear with this.

"Nah, don't worry, Mom, you do you." I shrugged. "Just happy for you! I hope you two can get along. Ashen, right? You better treat my mother nicely, alright?" I said, with a slightly menacing tone of voice.

"A-Ah, yes, honey." She nodded, looking like an intimidated puppy. "Your mother, she's very beautiful and gentle. It has been a while since someone has stirred my old heart. I am just as happy that she accepted me despite my age."

"Well, you don't certainly look old to me, Ashen." My mother giggled, patting her shoulders.

"Our fur turns grayer the older we are; I am surprised you can't realize that, but you keep saying I am cute…" Ashen was slightly embarrassed.

"You're really cute and fluffy, though. I can see why my daughter loves your granddaughters~" My mother rubbed her face on Ashen's fluffy neck.

"Sheesh, if you're saying that again, you better prepare for the consequences." Ashen licked her lips as the two started kissing again.

They're really in love, alright.

Ah! Do I look like that with the twins too?!

I haven't realized, but it must have been quite embarrassing too, huh?

"Honey, can you help us cook something for lunch?" Urbosa asked me with an adorable smile.

"Yes, of course." I smiled, quickly joining in with the cooking.

As always, I sneaked inside all kinds of special ingredients from my Inner Realm, even a big golden egg I had stored inside for some reason.

"What's this egg?" Wondered Merkite.

"Some sort of magic bird egg? Just break it." Said Urbosa.

"Sure~" Merkite cracked it open as a pink and golden-colored yolk came out.

SPLASH!

As it fell over the frying pan, it opened two big, cute blue eyes.

"Puwaah!"

Boing!

It leaped off the frying pan and into my head.

"Huh? Wait a moment, wasn't that egg…?!"

Oh, I think I understand what that egg was.

Did I really forget that?

Maybe because it wasn't that important in my head to even care about, I guess.

"What is that slime thing? Can we eat it?" Merkite asked.

"No, this is… Well, it is apparently a Legendary Pet?" I wondered.

"Puwaah! Buwah!" The little pink and golden yolk-like slime started leaping over my head.

"It's really cute!" Urbosa giggled.

"Just what is this thing anyways?" I wondered, grabbing it with my hands.

"Ooohmmm!"

However, out of nowhere, it opened its mouth, revealing a black hole inside. A suction force emerged from within as the creature devoured half of the pile of ingredients I had placed to the side in a flash.

"Burp…"

This damned thing ate all my ingredients!
