Legs 2

After a few minutes, Sally leads us to a teleportation pad. As soon as we touched the pad we were taken to a giant log which reached so high it went past the clouds.

On this giant log was a log-table with two log-chairs next to each other, and one log-chair directly across from them.

The table had a triple candle holder, with a wineglass, plates, and silverware.

Instead of the starry night sky, we saw a galaxy of stars. Shades of blue, purple, and some green where present.

"I'm guessing something happens when we sit," Sally told us.

"Let's all sit at the same time then," Maple suggested as she stood in front of one of the two log chairs next to each other.

"Sure," I said while moving to the one across from her.

"Okay!" Sally said as she moved to the one next to Maple.

"Ready, go!" Sally says to us as we all sit down.

The candles being held in the fancy candle holders light up and the wineglasses float up and directly line up under three brightly shining stars.

A black liquid pours down from the stars, into the wine glasses.

(Is this squid ink?) I think as the glass comes down.

The moment the wineglass touched the table, the black liquid immediately turned into a vibrant amount of many different colors. The liquid had stars, a crescent moon, and seemed to have become a galaxy itself.

From the candle, flames jump out onto our plates and turn into a small fireball sitting on our plates.

Light from the sky concentrates, becoming a beam, then striking the ball of fire on our plate.

The balls of fire on our plate disappear and are replaced with three jello for each of us.

The jello is sparkling and is shaped like a ball and comes in the colors blue, pink, and green.

"Woah" Sally and Maple gasp in surprise.

Seeing that all the food is done being made, a message appears saying the following.

[Today's special]

[Small Piece of Sky]

[Please enjoy your meal]

Maple takes her fork and eats part of the jello.

"How is it," Sally asks Maple.

"Mmm! It's like eating strawberries, oranges, and apples all at once!

"Hmm, as for this..." Sally says lifting the wineglass and siping out of it.

"Sally, your hair is glowing," Maple says with wide eyes and an interested expression.

"Wow, it's like a rainbow," I say as I look at Sally's hair.

"What?! Your eye color's all weird too!" Sally says shocked.

"Huh?" Maple questions as a mirror appear in front of her.

Maple looks at the mirror and notices her eyes are constantly changing colors and sparkling.

"Do you think it'll go back to normal?" Maple asks with a worried expression.

"It should only be temporary," I say reassuringly.

"Yeah, just give it some time and it will go away," Sally tells her.

I take a sip of the drink in the wine glass and my hair stays black.

"Hmm, your hair didn't change colors?" Maple says while looking at her in confusion.

"Try drinking that," Sally tells me as she points to my glass.

"Sure" I respond as I grab the glass in front of me and drink from it.

Nothing happens.

It does, however, taste pretty good.

(Send me some of each, I there's some stuff I can use it for.) Komeko tells me.

(Sure, but won't it look weird once all of my food, and this drink, vanish out of thin air?) I ask her, not caring for the food.

(Once it enters your mouth it will go to me.) Komeko informs me.

"Why do you think it doesn't change?" Maple asks me.

"Oh right, that's probably because my Azael traits won't allow it," I inform them as I begin to eat again.

"Azael?" Sally and Maple ask me as they also begin to eat.

I go over everything that happened during the time I went to get my blacksmithing quest, skipping over some rather... disturbing parts, and making sure to keep Komeko a secret still.

After this, we continue to talk and enjoy the presence of each other as we eat.

The next day we all log in, ready for the second event.

"Oh, hey Chrome!" I say while waving, catching his attention.

"Hey, Al," Chrome greets me while reaching out for a handshake.

"It's been a while how are you?" I ask as I shake his hand.

"I'm doing good, and you?" He asks as we both retract our hands.

"I'm doing great, this must be the prime of my youth!" I remark, giving him a laugh.

-Far away, in another world.-

"Achoo!" A man with a bowl cut and bushy eyebrows sneezes.

"Sensei are you sick?" A person that seems to be a smaller version of the man says.

"No, someone must be talking about it," The boy's teacher says with a proud smile.

"About what, sensei" The boy questioned.

"Youth!" The boy's teacher shouts passionately.

-Back on the second floor-

Chrome and I continue to talk until I see that Sally and Maple talking to each other.

"Hey, Al, Chrome, over here!" Maple shouts while waving to us.

"Yo," I say while waving back to them.

"Hey, it's been a while." Chrome says while looking at Maple's new shield.

"You've got a new shield, huh?" He asks.

"Yeah, I'm planning to save devour for when I really need it!" Maple responds energetically.

"Is this the rumored friend of yours?" Chrome asks while looking at Sally.

"Yeah, this is Sally!" Maple introduces her.

"Huh, rumored friend?" Sally asks, disturbed.

"Wow, you're quite popular huh Sally?" I say teasingly.

"Uh, forget it it's nothing." Chrome says with a sweatdrop expression.

"Listen, with this event, we'll bolster the reputation of the Flame Emporers!" A girl who I recognize as Mii declares as she raises the morale of her guild.

We all look at her giving our attention.

"I promise you. As long as you are with me, you will only taste victory!" Mii says, remembering how her guild was able to raise their points in the first event after I killed them with chain lethality.

"As members of the Flame Emporers, hold pride in your heart!" She says as she continues to give her speech.

Diverting my focus from her speech, I begin to get a better look at Mii.

The black stockings she wore hugged her thighs and the entire outfit she wore gave off a feeling of superiority.

With a hand on her hip, she had an aura of authority and leadership.

As I continue to check her out, I feel a pinch on both of my arms.

"You already have us and you still want more?" Sally says jealously with a pouting expression.

"I love you both, but me checking her out is a natural reaction! I'm a boy still you know!" I say trying to defend myself.

"Greedy!" Sally says as she pinches me again.

"Mean!" Maple says while pinching me again too.

"I won't ever cheat on you, but I'll still feel something if I see a beautiful girl!" I tell them.

Mii blushes at my compliment and then takes a glance at Maple and Sally, then looking back at me in disdain.

"You are a red-blooded male, after all, I guess it's up to us to do our duty as your fiance and "satisfy you correctly" this time," Sally says, whispering the last part only Maple and I to hear.

"D-duty as your fiance... s-s-satisfy correctly," Maple stutters, partially in a daze, but not disagreeing.

I widen my eyes a bit in disbelief and wrap my hands around both of their waists.

"Awawawaw" Maple begins to blush intensely as if steam would float out of her head at any minute.

"N-not here, wait until we get out of the game at least!" Sally said as her blush began to increase more.

"O-o-out of t-the g-g-g-game" Maple stood there with her mouth open, realizing we are about to do it for the first time in real life.

I gently kiss them both on the forehead.

"Go at your own pace ok? Don't push yourself." I tell them, causing them to calm down.

They both snuggle against me and remain quiet, seemingly thinking of something.

Meanwhile, Chrome is standing there, watching our interaction with each other.

He looks at my muscles and thinks, (Damn, maybe if I was built like that I would have two girlfriends...)

I begin to feel Chrome staring at my chest and muscles, so I turn my head slightly to face him, only for Chrome to look away with a tint of red on his cheeks.

"It's a misunderstanding," He says trying to keep a straight expression and not show his embarrassment.

I deadpan at his failed attempt at trying to hide it.
