After ejaculating inside Aoi, I repeated the act with her and again with Saemi, who seemed to have passed out. After that, even I felt exhausted and collapsed on the bed, falling asleep. The next day, upon waking up, the first thing I saw in my field of vision was a golden mane.
"Looks like you had a fun night"
Fujiwara smiled, letting out a laugh, and I joined in, offering a smile in return. Then, my gaze shifted to Aoi and Saemi, who were still sleeping beside me. Even under the covers, it was evident that we were naked.
"You have no idea, but I think I may have gone overboard with them. Starting to realize that maybe it was too much"
I said, and upon hearing my words, Fujiwara laughed again. By the way, I noticed that Aoi and Saemi seemed visibly exhausted. I doubt they would wake up even if I called them. Honestly, sometimes I feel like my libido is growing over time, but I can't say for sure if that's really true.
After that, I looked to the side and noticed that Ana was still sleeping. Seeing that brought a sense of relief; honestly, I didn't want to expose her to this kind of situation. Although I can't pinpoint exactly why, it seems strangely inappropriate. Well, Ana is actually only a year younger than me, so there's no reason for me to feel this way.
Afterward, I got up and dressed. Ana, Saemi, and Aoi were still asleep, so I left a note in a visible place before heading downstairs. There, I shared breakfast with Fujiwara. While having coffee, I noticed that various conversations revolved around the Goddess Coliseum. More precisely, registrations to participate were open.
Honestly, I was a bit surprised to find out that you need to sign up to enter. Initially, I imagined that it was enough to enter the area and defeat the opponent, and so on. However, I realize that this approach is much more organized, especially considering that it is a place where battles in the name of the goddess take place.
"So, when do you plan to explore the dungeon?"
While I picked up the conversations around me, Fujiwara's voice caught my attention. Looking at her, I found her eyes fixed on me as she took a bite of bread.
"Probably, I plan to explore the dungeon after the Goddess Coliseum tournament. Considering what happened last time, we might end up spending quite a bit of time inside"
Upon hearing my words, Fujiwara just nodded, resuming her breakfast.
"You're going to the orphanage again, aren't you?"
Hearing this, Fujiwara's eyes fixed on me, and her cheeks gained a reddish hue. Furthermore, she began to fidget in the chair in a peculiar way, indicating that perhaps the memory of confiding in me had come back. To be honest, seeing her like this made me find her funny.
"Well... yes. Although I donate money to other orphanages, that one is in a more precarious situation, so I try to go as much as possible to help the children"
When expressing this, Fujiwara lowered her head, visibly embarrassed. Gently, my hand reached towards her head, and Fujiwara looked at me, displaying a surprised expression.
"You don't need to be embarrassed, you know? I'm genuinely proud of what you're doing. After registering, I'll go to the orphanage too. Who knows, maybe we can play mom and dad with the kids?"
I said, maintaining a smile on my face. Upon hearing my words, Fujiwara's face turned even redder than before, but now for a completely different reason.
After that, we both finished breakfast and left the inn. Fujiwara headed towards the orphanage, while I made my way to the Goddess Coliseum, where the tournament would take place. As I approached the venue, I saw more and more Demi-humans, all notably muscular and adorned with scars on their bodies.
Finally, I reached a considerably long line. I waited patiently until it was my turn, which didn't take long, only about thirty minutes. Quite fast, if you ask me.
"Name, please?"
Asked the man as I approached. Initially, I thought he would ask for my identification or something.
"Makoto Tatsuya"
I replied. Upon hearing this, he recorded my name on a sheet and began explaining the rules.
"The rules are clear, the use of any magic is prohibited. You can't use anything other than your own body and physical strength"
I just nodded, as I expected that. Honestly, I'm not sure how strong I would be fighting only with my physical strength, but as long as the opponent isn't Leona, I'll probably be fine.
"Alright"
After these words, he finished signing something on the paper and cut the sheet, putting it aside. Then, he handed me a small paper with my name and a written number.
"This is your participant number. When called, present yourself in the arena, facing opponents one by one until reaching the final champion. If you emerge victorious, you'll have the opportunity to have a wish granted"
Upon uttering these words, I nodded to the man and stepped away. Of course, when he mentioned a "wish" I wasn't expecting something on the level of bringing someone back to life. At most, I considered possibilities like money, fame, status, or even marriage with someone of higher standing than mine. In short, something that wasn't technically impossible.
Anyway, on the paper, the number two was marked, indicating that my fight would be against number one. In general, I would have my first match right from the start. Honestly, I can't say if this is a positive or negative thing.
After that, I headed to the orphanage where Fujiwara was. We spent most of the time playing with the children. Ironically, we ended up participating in a mom and dad game with them. Somehow, the kids knew we were a couple, so they suggested it would be more realistic that way. We chose to comply with their wishes and continued playing with them for the rest of the day.
