DxD: Weaving Threads 07

Training with Sona goes the same as it did last week. We haven't told Sona about me knocking Momo up yet, Momo wants to wait until she can do a test, a magical one, confirming the conception before we tell Sona. I'm not sure why, but I'm okay procrastinating that conversation for another day or two.

Momo does show off her new ability though, creating powerful barriers in an instant. She can only have one at a time, but they can get fairly large and none of the enemies we fight are even able to put a dent in them. She fights from the back, so I'm okay with her participating. She definitely seems to move less though, and her hand kept going to her stomach. I don't think anyone else notices though, distracted as they are by combat and Momo's new powers.

Sona does grill me a bit about the power, and I tell her the truth. I explain that it was a rare item, the downsides to her power, the enchanted item I made to counteract those downsides, and how Momo had made her own decision on it. Left unsaid was why I had given it to her, but that didn't really need to be said. I was going to give it to her soon either way, the pregnancy was just a good time to do it.

Speaking of enchanted items, I handed out the Student's Pendants to Sona's entire peerage, and it really helps boost their leveling speed. Almost all of them are above level 100 now, and the few that aren't are just a couple levels away. With their quickly growing strength and Momo's new barriers, they were able to get to floor 30 of the Colosseum and beat the boss there. The last fight was hard though. 40 might not be possible right now.

Still, we walk out with a lot of progress made. I have a new skill courtesy of reaching level 62 with my Lightbearer class.

[Channel Solar-Light] - Level 1(0%)

Channel Solar-Light through your body or through an object

I'm excited to try this one out. If I'm right, this is the skill I need to recreate the Golden Gun Hunter ability. I could try maybe making a gun out of Solar-Light, but I'm pretty sure infusion is how they do it according to the lore.

I also got some nice loot. A gacha token, a couple more scrolls, a wand, a spear that could extend that I immediately disenchanted, and a bunch of junk weapons I immediately sold back for Hunie. I also got a few heart crystals and a crystal that increased my STR by 15. But there was one more really nice item. A Major Sterility Potion.

The timing on that was perfect. It wasn't until this morning that I realized I could have given Momo the fertility potion and I'd still be able to have sex with other girls. So getting a potion that made me sterile again was very welcome and I immediately downed it, making me not have to worry about accidental pregnancies for a month.

I really need to find a way to make that potion. There's no reason I can't, [Alchemy] is maxed out. I just need to find the right ingredients. I haven't been able to dedicate much time to figuring it out though.

With my new sterility potion, I invite Momo, Sona, Ruruko, and Tomoe to join me in the baths after training. To my delight, Sona barely hesitates at all, really only being surprised that Tomoe is going to join us. Her corruption is going well, I'll have to contact Serafall soon.

After fooling around with them and cleaning up, I gear up. My plan for today is to use another one of my treasure maps and find whatever it's detailing. I pull the three I still have left out and look over them and one, in particular, catches my eye.

Beloved cup of the holy Son

Sought by many, found by none.

But with my guidance, you shall not fail

To find the Lord's most Holy Grail.

In the land descent from Rome

Is where the Grail calls home.

Held by those hidden in mist,

the ones who upon blood subsist.

Find the faction led by men,

And then the one with all the power.

Hidden far above his den

Locked away atop the tower.

The Holy Grail is certainly a tempting treasure, though I'm not sure what form it will take here in DxD. I don't remember watching or reading anything about it in my previous life, so I'm flying blind here. Thankfully the riddle lays it out pretty clearly.

The Grail is in Romania, being held by the Tepes clan. I don't think the 'land descent of Rome' line would have made much sense to me on its own, but the following lines pretty clearly state that the patriarchal vampires are the ones that have the Grail, and I already know that they live in Romania from research on the supernatural factions I've been doing lately.

And it's not surprising that the head of the Tepes is the one with the Grail. I'd be surprised if it was in Tepes territory but not his hands. I guess it could have been hidden somewhere, lying undiscovered. But it made more sense for King Tepes to have it in his treasury. A grin breaks out over my face. And I wonder what sorts of other things he has in his vault?

It doesn't take long for me to [Void Travel] to Romania. I didn't have any spots marked there, but by this point, I'm pretty fast at finding a place with [Void Sight] and I can teleport straight there once I do find it. The sun is just starting to rise here, which is perfect. The vampires should be going to sleep right about now if they haven't already. That should make things easier.

Finding where the Tepes faction is takes longer, but it's not difficult. I just had to find the magical barriers that cover the place with mist and keep the mundane people out. It's a pretty large chunk of Romania that is protected like that, enough for me to find two very distinct cities located on opposite sides of a mountain from each other.

It takes some scouting with [Void Sight] to determine which one is the Tepes faction, but again, it isn't too hard. I watch the citizens of one of the cities for a while. I was right in that they were headed to bed or asleep at this time of day, but that's only true for most of them, and I see enough to determine that the women are definitely in power there.

Which means that one is the Carmilla faction's city, and the other one is the Tepes. Still using [Void Sight] I look around for the biggest and fanciest home, and I find it quickly. It's a pretty standard Gothic castle, tall and built of stone. Stained glass is prominent and so are the gargoyles lining the roofs.

From there I look up and find the tallest tower. There are a few towers, but it's the central one that stands the tallest, and it's there that I focus on first. The tower itself is thick, with a spiral staircase running around the inside of the wall, and it has several floors of circular rooms. Most of them seem to be storage rooms and workshops, which strikes me as odd until I see the layers of dust. These are rooms that aren't used often.

Except for the one at the very top, where instead of a vault or an armory or anything like that, I find a simple bedroom. And in that bedroom was a young woman with blonde hair and red eyes who is staring longingly out the window and at the rising sun.

I look around the room more, but nothing stands out as a vault or a hiding spot, and the only magic I can find is in the girl and the door. Is the girl the Holy Grail? No, more likely is that the Holy Grail here is a Sacred Gear. There are several artifacts related to Jesus and God that are Sacred Gears, the Holy Grail being one of them makes sense.

What doesn't make as much sense is a vampire wielding it. Only humans are given Sacred Gears. But as I watch the girl, who shows no signs of moving from the window even as the sun peeks over the mountains and bathes her in light, I understand a little better. This girl must be a dhampir, half-vampire half-human, just like Gasper.

Well, it's not the glittering gold and magical artifacts I was hoping for, but this isn't so bad either. She's beautiful, and if she has a powerful Sacred Gear, I want her. Though there are problems. Mostly that kidnapping the girl that is almost certainly King Tepe's daughter, seeing as she's living in his castle, is almost certainly going to piss him off. And sure, stealing his stuff would have done the same as well, but I could pretend I didn't steal that. I can't do that with an actual person.

Though 'kidnapping' probably isn't the right term. The door to her room is magically locked from the outside, her room is barely furnished, she looks unhappy, and I remember what Rias and Gasper told me about how dhampirs are seen by full-blooded vampires. She's most likely the bastard daughter of the king and is treated poorly, Sacred Gear or not. If they even know she has it.

So it wouldn't be kidnapping, not if I can convince her. It would be rescuing. It would still piss off the Tepes most likely, but honestly? I kind of didn't care. Maybe it was how I recently cleared the Vampire themed dungeon, but they just don't feel like a threat.

Mind made up to make this girl mine, I [Void Travel] straight into her bedroom, ignoring the wards that are set up to prevent that kind of thing. The girl doesn't see me and is watching the sunrise out the window. I silently sit down on a chair on the other side of the room and take a relaxed position.

"You've got a pretty good view of it from up here," I say, causing the girl to yelp and spin around, hand clutching her chest.

"W-w-w-w-what?!" she exclaims. "W-who?! When?!"

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you," I lie. I remained sitting in a comfortable and relaxed position. "I just saw you up here all by yourself and thought I'd drop in for a chat."

First Impressions perk activated

+25 Affection with Valerie Tepes

She seems to collect herself a little bit, but she's still wary of me and looking at me with suspicion. "Who are you? Does my father know you're here?"

"He doesn't," I reply. "He has no idea who I even am. My name is Axton, but you probably haven't heard of me. What's yours?"

She looks a little confused, like she doesn't fully know how to respond to me, but her wariness is slowly fading. "I'm Valerie Tepes," she says. "How did you get here then?"

"I snuck in," I reply easily. "You see, while it's not something I do often, every now and then I like to stick my nose where it doesn't belong, maybe steal some valuables. I came hoping to find some precious treasure." I grin at her. "I didn't expect to happen upon a young woman, but your beauty makes gold look like trash, so I thought I'd stop by and chat. And maybe see if you would like to be stolen away."

She blushes. "Wait wait wait," she says. "One thing at a time. You- you're a thief?"

"Sometimes," I reply. "I wouldn't say it's my primary occupation, but I'm pretty good at it."

"And you came to rob my father," she continues.

"I wanted to see if the King of Vampires had anything good," I answer. "But before I could track down a vault or treasure room, I saw you, and your beauty made me forget about searching for gold or magical artifacts."

"And th-that!" she says, pointing with a flushed face. "I'm not that beautiful, so I know you're lying to me!"

I shake my head sadly. "You may not see it, but you are definitely very attractive." She looks like a vampire princess, but with a soft and kind face. She's wearing simple clothes, but with them on you can tell her figure is nice and curvy, though her boobs are fairly modest by DxD standards. And she has red eyes, which I'm a big fan of.

She just blushes more, so I continue. "In truth, I'm not after valuables or money. I heard Tepes had something rare, so I came searching for it to see if he did. But that doesn't matter, I'm much more interested in the dhampir damsel in distress locked away at the top of this tower."

She seems to wilt a little. "Oh, so you know I'm a dhampir?"

"Well, you're voluntarily standing in sunlight as you watch the sunrise, so you're not a full-blooded vampire," I reply. "I assumed you're King Tepe's dhampir daughter, locked away here because vampires are scared of dhampirs and so treat them like trash."

She frowned. "Scared of us?"

"Of course," I say. "You have all of their strengths but you can move around in the day without issue, and you can be born with Sacred Gears." I pretend not to notice she stiffens slightly at that, but I do make note of it. "They'll never admit that, and many of them probably haven't even managed to put enough thought into it to realize it themselves, but it's almost certainly the reason. In fact, I know of another dhampir that was exiled because they were scared of him."

She looks at me sharply then. "Who?! What was his name?!"

Wait, did she know Gasper? No, what am I saying? Of course she does. This is another dhampir, a pretty girl, from the same faction and also had a powerful Sacred Gear, or so I assume. They're probably childhood friends or half-siblings on their mother's side or something.

"Gasper Vladi?" I say, acting confused. "I think he said he was from the Tepes as well."

She falls to her knees, slumping in relief. "He did it then, he got out."

"Well, mostly," I say. "I'm guessing you two knew each other?" She nods. "He managed to get out but...he was attacked and died." Her eyes widen in horror. "But it's fine! He was resurrected by being reincarnated as a Devil."

She places a hand over her chest. "Oh. That's...good. I think?" She looks up at me. "Is...is he happy?"

I smile. "Yeah, he's pretty happy. He's a little scared of the world, but he has friends and hobbies and he even goes to school. Technically."

+14 Affection with Valerie Tepes

For confirming her only friend's well-being

I stand up and walk over to her, and she doesn't shy away, she just looks at me questioningly. I kneel in front of where she's on the ground and hold my hand out to her. "What do you say to coming with me? I've got a really big house you can live in, and you'll have as much freedom as you want. Gasper will be there, we're friends. Kuoh is a nice town, and hell, I could probably get you enrolled in school if you want."

She looks up at me, hope in her eyes. "I could...live a normal life? With Gaspi?"

I smile at her. "Absolutely."

+7 Affection with Valerie Tepes

For promising her the life she's always wanted

She beams and takes my hand. I stand up, pulling her to her feet as well. "Let me grab a few things."

I nod. "Sure. No one knows I'm here, and no one is approaching. You have at least a few minutes."

She nods and grabs a bag and starts putting things in it. Mostly clothes and a few books. "So what was the thing you heard my father had that you came looking for?" she asks as she packs.

She's pretty trusting, isn't she? Also pretty uncaring that I came here to rob her dad. But, based on her being locked up, she probably doesn't like him much. "I heard he had the Holy Grail," I tell her honestly, making a point not to pay attention to her as she freezes in place. "Not sure if it's true, but I figured I'd look into it. I also have no idea what it does, but it's probably pretty useful."

She starts packing again, moving slower now. "Why did you want it?" she asks carefully.

I shrug. "Nothing in particular really. Like I said, I don't even know what it does, I just came to get it on a whim. I don't really mind leaving without it." Not that I would be, but she didn't seem to realize I knew the truth.

I see her take a deep breath out of the corner of my eye before she turns to face me. "You won't have to," she declares. "I have the Holy Grail. My Sacred Gear is the Sephiroth Graal."

"Aaah, so it's a Sacred Gear," I say out loud. "I was wondering how a vampire king got his hands on it."

"Can I ask where you heard that rumor of him having it?" she asks. "I mean, no one should even know I have it. I've been careful not to use it much, especially not when it could be noticed. As far as I know, no one else knows I have it."

"Magic," I explain vaguely. "Or rather, an aspect of my abilities. No, I don't have a Sacred Gear myself, but I do have strange abilities, and one of them is that sometimes I get information I'm not supposed to have. This was one of those, though it seems it was incomplete."

"I see," she replies. "So umm...what now?"

"Have you finished packing?" I ask. She shakes her head. "Well, the coast is still clear, so finish that and we'll be on our way. Your Sacred Gear doesn't change anything, our deal is the same. If you want help figuring it out, I'd be glad to help, but no, I'm not going to force you to use it or anything. What you do with it is up to you."

"R-really? But it's the Holy Grail! It's a Longinus!" she protests.

I shrug. "I offered you a place to stay so you can get out of here and reconnect to an old friend. You're an adult, you can make your own decisions about how you use that. I'm sure it's very powerful and useful, but I'm not the controlling type."

Mostly untrue, but this way earns her loyalty, and hopefully her love. I prefer having people want to help me out of their own desires rather than try to force them through some other means.

Valerie's shoulders slump as she relaxes. "I- thank you, Axton."

"Of course," I say. "Now, finish packing and we can be on our way." She nods and goes back to stuffing her bag. As she does, I pull a Super Heart Crystal out of my inventory and use it to increase her Affection to get her above that 50 mark.

+20 Affection with Valerie Tepes

Perk rewarded for 50 Affection with Valerie Tepes

[Half-n-Half] - Increases Affection gain with those that are half-human half another species by 20%

Nice. At this rate, she'll be mine in no time, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing her look up at me with her lips wrapped around my dick. I'm starting to get aroused just thinking about it, so I push it out of my mind. No need to rush. I can use Gasper's obsession with me to help her along.

"I think I'm done," Valerie says. Her backpack is stuffed to the brim, and looking around the room, there doesn't seem to be much left besides a few articles of clothes.

I nod. "Great. Then take my hand and I'll teleport us out of here."

She grabs my hand, and this time I have [Touch of Pleasure] activated on a low level. I want to associate touching me with feeling good. "Teleport?" she asks. "But the wards-"

"Are not a problem for someone like me," I cut her off. "Are you ready? It can be a bit disconcerting." She nods, and I step backward, pulling her with me through the Void as we appear in my entrance hall.

Her eyes widen as she looks around. "Wow! That was so quick! Where are we now?"

"Kuoh, Japan," I tell her. "Specifically, this is my home. I can set you up in a bedroom, but I figured the first thing you'd want to do is see Gasper."

Her attention shoots back to me as she nods. "Can I?"

"Sure, lemme call Rias, the Devil who reincarnated him. I'll ask her to bring him over."

She beams. "I can't wait!"

Valerie puts her stuff down and continues to look around the room as I call Rias.

"Axton!" she picks up. "It's been a while since I last saw you."

"Sorry about that, I've been pretty busy lately," I reply.

"Oh don't worry about it, Atsuko and Aika have been telling me about how much you run around and how many things you have going on, I understand. Congratulations on your new business, by the way. Everyone I know in the Underworld has been talking about it non-stop."

"Thank you, business is doing great already. Let me know if you put in an order, I'll give you a special discount."

"I'll make sure to do so. It would be silly to not accept an offer like that. But I'm assuming you didn't call just to catch up. What can I do for you?"

"Do you recognize the name Valerie Tepes?"

"Of course, that was the name of Gasper's friend when he was a child before he was driven out. He speaks of her very fondly. Why?"

"Because she's in my house, as my guest, and she wants to see Gasper."

"...Axton, how is she in your house? She's the dhampir daughter of King Tepes, there's no way he'd let her leave."

"I'd be very surprised if he knew she was missing by now, we only just got back to my home a few seconds before I called you."

"Did you kidnap her Axton?!"

"She's an adult, I think," I look over at her and she nods. "Yes, she is, and she wanted to come, so it's not kidnapping. If anything, I rescued her. I saw her locked up in a tower, popped in for a chat, discovered that she knew Gasper, and I invited her to come live with me. Simple as that."

"And why were you anywhere near Tepes territory?! That's all the way in Romania for Satan's sake!"

"Rias I take girls across the world for casual dates, I can teleport across the globe with a thought. Distance isn't really that important of a factor. As for why, I heard a rumor, the details of which don't really matter."

I hear her sigh heavily over the phone. "The Tepes are going to be furious with you when they find out."

"I'll deal with that when it becomes an issue. Don't worry, I don't expect you or Sona to protect me. I have plans in progress."

"Fine, fine, so long as you understand," Rias says, sounding tired. "I'll bring him right over, I'm sure he'll agree to leave to see her. And I think Koneko has already gotten him to visit your place once already."

Huh, must have been while I was out. "Sounds good, we'll wait for you in the entrance hall." After we say our goodbyes I hang up and turn to Valerie. "He'll be here soon. Full disclosure, he's a bit of a shut-in. He's scared of the outside world and scared of accidentally hurting others with his Sacred Gear."

"Oh," she says. "That's not surprising, considering his life before he escaped. But I was hoping he was doing better."

I place a comforting hand on her shoulder. "He is, a bit. We've been trying to help. And I'm hoping you can help more."

She smiles at me and nods. "I'll drag him to all sorts of places!"

"That's the spirit," I reply. "They'll be here soon. Do you want to change before they get here?"

She looks down and realizes she's dressed in a pair of pajamas. "I probably should," she replies sheepishly.

I point to a door. "Go through that door and the first door on the right is a private sitting room that you can lock from the inside. You can get changed there." She nods and heads that way with her bag. Of course, I peek as she changes, and her figure is just as nice as I thought it was. Her skin is smooth and pale and she's curvy in a way that's appealing to the eye.

She changes quickly and arrives back in the entrance hall right as I feel a pulse of magic indicating that Rias and Gasper have just teleported in. Not even a moment later Gasper comes bursting through the door. "Valerie!" he calls out as he nearly slams into her, wrapping his arms around her in a hug that she returns. "I never thought I'd see you again."

"Neither did I, I didn't even know if you made it out," Valerie replies. "No one would tell me anything. I've spent years wondering what happened to you."

"I'm sorry I couldn't tell you," Gasper says. "It was really hard getting out, even with your help. And once I did get out, I didn't have any way of getting in touch."

Valerie shakes her head. "No, it's okay, I get it. Axton told me how you died and were reincarnated, I'm just glad you're safe."

I feel Gasper's nervousness skyrocket as he remembers I'm here. He breaks off his hug with Valerie and turns to me. "O-oh, right. I'm s-so sorry Axton, I didn't mean to ignore you." He bows deeply. "Thank you for rescuing Valerie!"

+11 Affection with Gasper Vladi

For rescuing his oldest friend

Rias enters the room and silently stands next to me, watching things. "It's no problem Gasper, I understand perfectly. And it was a coincidence I saved her, though if you had asked me, I would have done it sooner." Rias shoots me a look at that, but I ignore her. "Gasper, you've been here before, right?" He nods slowly. "Could you do me a favor and show her around?"

"Okay," he agrees.

"Take her to the bedrooms first, so she can pick an empty room," I say. "Valerie, you can pick any room you want. Just place your stuff in there to claim it, I'll inform my staff to accommodate anything you need."

Valerie approaches me and gives me a hug, one which I return. "Thank you so much, I mean it."

I pat her back gently. "You're welcome," I say. "Now go have fun catching up with Gasper, we can talk anytime you want." She nods as she steps back. Gasper takes her hand and Rias and I watch as the two of them head deeper into the mansion.

"I'll admit, I was surprised you'd risk angering the Tepes faction like this, but seeing Gasper that happy makes me think that maybe it was worth the risk," Rias says after they've gone.

"It's the main reason I brought her back," I reply. "That and my desire to help pretty girls."

Rias rolls her eyes, but she smiles as well. "I wouldn't expect anything less from you." She looks at where they've gone. "This will be good for him I think. He already looks happier than I've ever seen him." She shakes her head. "You don't mind me leaving him here for today, right?"

"Nah, he could even move in if he wanted," I reply. "I've got plenty of room after all. There's no problem if he sticks around or stays the night catching up with her. I'll keep an eye on them too, make sure nothing happens."

She sighs. "It seems like half my Peerage is already spending many of their nights here, maybe I should just make it official."

I shrug. "You're welcome to, I'd love to have you, and it's a safe place."

"I'll think about it," she replies. "In the meantime, I need to go discuss things with Akeno." She gives me a quick kiss on the cheek. "I'll see you later Axton."

"You're welcome anytime," I reply with a grin. She doesn't seem fully ready to admit it, but oh man does she have feelings for me. I think about inviting her for some fun, but unfortunately, I have some business to work on. What Rias said earlier was right, my business is booming, and even with Ravel's help, that means I have a lot I need to do.

After Rias leaves, I tell Sakuya and Wilhelm about my new guest and then head to my office to catch up on some work. Mostly going over how many of each potion we still have in stock, how fast each kind is selling, and putting together a list of ingredients I need to order to replenish my stock.

As I'm working I pick up Mittelt walking by my office door, headed somewhere else. I also notice something else that makes me grin. I use [Sound Domain] to stop her and call her into my office.

"Close the door behind you and come here," I say as she enters the room. She feels nervous but also a little aroused. She does as I tell her though and I look her over. "Lift your skirt," I order her.

She does so, showing me her lacy blank panties, identical to the ones I had her give me when I caught her eavesdropping. The ones I never gave back. I look back up at her face. "Why are you wearing panties?"

She blinks at the unexpected question. "Sir?"

"Last Monday I took your panties as punishment," I explain. "I never said you could have them back. So why are you wearing panties?"

She pauses. "That...wasn't just for that day?"

I sigh. "No, it wasn't. The punishment was your loss of panty privileges. Lower your skirt and take those off."

She sheepishly follows my orders, that mix of shame and arousal clear in her emotions. Once again she hands me a pair of panties and once again I stash them into my inventory.

"I think failure to understand and follow orders necessitates another punishment, wouldn't you agree?" I ask her with a teasing smile.

She swallows. "Yes sir," she replies obediently.

"Let's see…" I muse, pretending to think it over even though I've already decided on her punishment. "When did you put your panties on again?"

"Tuesday morning," she answers.

"Not Monday night?" I ask.

She blushes. "I...I sleep nude anyway. There was no point."

"I see," I say, not bothering to hide my grin. "So Tuesday morning you put on your uniform, panties included. And you've done so every day, believing that your punishment was over." She nods. "Well, it was a misunderstanding, so I won't punish you too harshly."

The declaration of her getting off easily causes her to feel a mixture of relief and disappointment. "Thank you, sir," she says.

"I just think the punishment should fit the offense," I reply. "So I want you to lift your skirt for me again and keep it lifted up until I count to five. One second of exposing yourself to me for every day you wore panties without permission seems fair, no?"

She stiffens slightly, but her arousal spikes. I'm crossing a slight line here, advancing our little game to the next stage. And it sets the tone for things to come, that I would keep pushing a little further each time. And I can tell she also realizes this.

"Perfectly fair sir," she says, her voice only a little strained. She reaches and once again lifts her skirt, and this time there are no panties to prevent me from seeing everything.

"One," I say as I take a good look. I've actually seen her naked already, I frequently check on everyone in the house with [Void Sight], and therefore I've seen her in the shower and asleep.

But it's not about me seeing, it's about her being aware of me looking at her. She wants to be punished and she's getting off on this.

"Two."

Her crotch is cleanly shaven. Or maybe she just doesn't grow hair? Her body is rather petite, and I know Angels, including the Fallen ones, don't grow and have been the same since they were made. It's possible that she was made smooth and never grew pubic hair.

"Three."

There's not much to say about the rest of her pussy though. It's fairly normal, nothing outstanding or special about it. Though it is slowly dripping with arousal, the result of it running down her inner thigh.

"Four."

I'm definitely taking more than a second between each count, but she hasn't complained yet. I'm not sure she even notices. So I make sure to drag the last one out a very long time, eyes lecherously locked onto her nudity as she trembles with barely contained excitement.

"Five," I finally say after what amounted to several seconds. I look back to her face, which is flushed. "You can lower your skirt now."

She does so, moving neither quickly nor slowly. "Is that all you need from me sir?" she asks as she squirms in place.

"Just two more quick things," I reply. "First, I'll be performing random checks to make sure you aren't wearing panties." She nods. "Second, for accepting your punishment so well, I'll give you a small reward. You can take a thirty-minute break from work to relieve yourself. It's obvious you're feeling a little pent up."

+8 Affection with Mittelt

For being the most fun boss she's ever had

"Thank you, sir," she says with a curtsy. One that almost exposes her again, but doesn't quite get high enough.

"You're dismissed," I tell her. "Go have some fun and then get back to whatever you were doing."

She nods and quickly leaves the room. I watch her as she runs down the halls and to a nearby bathroom which she locks herself in. In moments she's sitting on the toilet furiously fingering herself as she calls out my name.

Dammit, that's too hot for me to ignore. I send a quick text and I don't have to wait long for Kyu to appear. "Your booty call has arrived!" Kyu announces as she barges in.

"Mittelt is currently in the bathroom a little ways away masturbating furiously while thinking about me," I explain. "And I'm horny as fuck now."

Kyu nods understandingly. "Say no more, I got you. Just make sure you keep watching her with that skill so I can watch too. And turn that Touch of Pleasure skill way up."

"Deal," I say and I put all of my clothes into my inventory. Kyu strips as well and kneels between my legs. She pulls the polymorph phallus, the dildo that looks and feels like my dick, out of my inventory and props it up against the ground before lowering herself on it. I shudder as I feel the phantom sensation of entering Kyu, and then again as she wraps her lips around my real cock. I can feel myself in two of Kyu's holes, and it's a wonderful feeling.

Kyu, the expert that she is, brings me to my first orgasm in just a few minutes, which nicely coincides with Mittelt's first orgasm. I feel my hungry need dissipate after my first orgasm, but I don't see a reason to stop. Kyu and Mittelt certainly don't as they keep going. Though Kyu does slow down her movements some.

It occurs to me that not only would this be a perfect chance to use a heart crystal on Mittelt, while she's masturbating, but also that I have a lot of them that I could use. I meant to before, but it keeps slipping my mind.

So I place one hand on Kyu's head, gently guiding her motions as she bobs her head up and down my cock, and with the other, I look through my relationships and use some Heart Crystals.

Holy shit I've been sitting on these for too long. Six new Affection boosting perks, one of which was upgraded already, and an older one also upgraded.

Kyu looks up at me, slightly annoyed that I'm distracted while she's servicing me. I grin apologetically before I switch my attention back to her and to watching Mittelt. Seconds before I cum I change the flavor to candy, giving Kyu a sweet treat as an apology.

She swallows it all, satisfaction emanating from her. Pleasing Kyu was simple. After my orgasm finishes Kyu finally removes my dick from her mouth and looks up at me. "I hope you know I'm not going anywhere. I've been waiting for ages to get fucked over your desk, and I'm not leaving until you go soft."

I grin. "There's a reason I called you and not another girl," I reply, standing up. "I wouldn't have it any other way."

A couple hours later, after I filled Kyu up to the brim and she had left satisfied, I'm still sitting in my office, redoing some of the paperwork that had gotten covered in bodily fluids or just crumpled up.

I sense someone surprising approach my door as I work. "Come in," I say right before they knock, causing them to jump in surprise. I allow myself a small satisfied grin before they open the door and enter. "What can I do for you Gasper?" I ask.

Gasper is looking at the floor and wringing his hands. He's very clearly nervous and embarrassed but also determined. I wonder what this could be. His Affection is pretty high now, almost max.

"Could- could I ask for a favor?" he asks. "I know I'm not really in a place to do that since you just saved Valerie but-"

"Name it," I tell him. "You're a friend Gasper, if I can help you out, I will."

He blushes. "Th-that potion. The one you offered me the other day. Is that offer...still open?"

I suppress the massive grin that wants to break out on my face and pull a Genderbend potion out of my inventory and hold it up. "Do you mean this one?"

He nods. "I-I've been thinking about it a lot. And I talked to Valerie about it. And I think I do want it. I think I've wanted it for a long time."

I place it on the far side of my desk, close to him. "You're welcome to it. It's not permanent, another one can change you back if you change your mind. But I approve. I wasn't lying when I said you'd make a cute girl. You practically are already."

His blush deepens, but [Empathy] tells me he likes hearing the compliment. Wordlessly he grabs the vial and stiffens his shoulders as he looks at it. I can feel his indecisiveness as he hesitates to take that final step, but I just silently watch him. I don't need to prod him on, if he got this far he'll do it, he just needs to take a moment to brace himself.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, he quickly musters up his courage, opens the vial, and downs the potion. I watch with curiosity, not having seen the potion at work before. It's not exciting though. There's no flash of light or obscuring mist or anything. I just see his body shift as it changes shape under his clothes. It happens in a second too, if I blinked I would have missed most of it.

Gasper starts running her hands over her body, feeling the changes. Honestly, there aren't many. At a casual glance she looks exactly the same. But there are two slight bumps on her chest. Damn, she's even smaller than Koneko. Not by much, but it's not like there's a lot of room between Koneko and 'nothing at all'. And I can't see it with my eyes, but [Void Detect] shows a lack of bulge in her panties.

"How do you feel?" I ask. "I assume it worked?"

"I-I think so," she says. Is her voice higher pitched? No, not really. The potion didn't need to work very hard, did it? "It definitely worked down there, I could feel that change. But my chest…"

"Don't worry, all boobs are good boobs, the size doesn't matter," I reassure her.

She blushes but nods, accepting my words. And then finally I see what I was hoping I would.

+9 Affection with Gasper Vladi

Perk rewarded for 100 Affection with Gasper Vladi

[Balor's Gift] - Increases your perception of time while in Void Form, causing the world to seem to move in slow motion.

Interesting. I expected something to do with time manipulation, but I didn't expect it to be tied to my Void Form. Is it because of Gasper, or because of the System trying to balance things?

I'm distracted from trying to figure it out by Gasper slowly walking around my desk to stand next to me. Her nervousness from earlier is back but I pretend not to notice. Still, I suspect I have a general idea of what's about to happen, so I activate [Touch of Pleasure].

"I- um. I just- I wanted to say thank you," she stammers. "For everything." Just like earlier, she screws up her courage, closes her eyes, and quickly leans forward to give me a quick kiss on the lips before she runs away and out of my office.

I smile. That turned out better than I let myself hope. Today's been a productive day for sure. I glance at the clock, and it's not that late, but a quick check shows most of my current harem in my bedroom. Not all of them fit on the bed, some are on the couch or just standing talking to each other. Though Atsuko is definitely doing more than just talking to Momo.

I quickly finish up the paperwork I was working on and leave the rest for tomorrow. I need to step in before Atsuko gets things started without me. I'd hate to miss out on the fun.

I close my eyes and enjoy the feeling of Ravel scrubbing my back, using her ample boobs rather than a sponge. We just finished training, having rushed through the Hardmode forest dungeon. I didn't get much in the way of loot, just the standard heart crystals, crafting materials, potions, and trash weapons that I sold for Hunie. But I did get my first Void-Light skill.

[Conjure Void-Light] - Level 1(0%)

Draw on the Light and convert it to Void

Despite my plethora of other Void skills, I'm excited to play with this one. I want to see what I can do with more control over the Void than I've had up until now. Before now all I've been able to do is use very specific Void skills that I can do very little to change their shape. But the Void-Light skills should give me much more control and room to experiment.

I'm drawn back to the moment by two figures approaching the bathroom Ravel and I are in. We came here for our post-training debrief, which is mostly just an excuse for some alone time with Ravel. The other girls are bathing in a different area. Except these two have decided to come join us. Though I should have expected this honestly.

The door to the bathroom opens, and Ravel and I both look to see two very naked catgirls, Ni and Li.

"Axtooooon~," Ni calls out as they approach us.

"We're tired of waiting," Li follows up. They position themselves on either side of me and cling to my arms, their boobs wrapping around them.

"Won't you please play with us?" Ni asks, looking up at me with sad eyes.

"Girls-" Ravel starts to admonish them, but I cut her off.

"It's fine," I tell her. "I did promise after all." The twins' eyes sparkle with delight. "Ravel why don't you go ahead and get in the bath ahead of us while I play with these two naughty kittens?"

"Yes sir," she replies as she gets up, rinses herself off, and gets into the bath.

I activate my normal array of lewd skills and turn my attention to the two cat girls who have now positioned themselves on my lap, each of them straddling my leg so that I can feel their pussies on my leg. Both of them look at me hungrily.

"You won't regret making time for us," Li purrs as she wraps a hand around my already erect cock.

"Let these two naughty kitties show you what they can do," Ni purrs as she also grabs my dick, her hand positioned right above her sister's. The two of them start moving in perfect sync, simultaneously giving me a handjob as Li leans in and kisses me.

Her kiss is playful and sexy, her tongue darting into my mouth to tease me before retreating and encouraging me to reciprocate. After a few moments of making out with Li, she pulls back and Ni takes her turn kissing me. Ni's kiss is more hungry and needy.

As they alternate kissing me and they keep jacking me off, my hands reach up to start groping their tits. Ni and Li are decently sized, just big enough so that I can sink my hands into their softness. Both of the girls moan as I grope them. They start moving their hips, grinding their crotches into my leg.

A few minutes later I grunt into Li's mouth as I cum, shooting my load onto the bathroom floor.

"Aww, what a waste," Ni pouts as Li pulls back.

"We wanted to taste your cream~," Li teases.

"Oh, you'll have plenty of chances to do so," I reply. "We're not nearly done here yet."

The two of them grin and we reposition ourselves. Ni lays on her back on the bathroom floor and Li lays face down on top of her. I position myself between their legs and appreciate the view of their dripping entrances pressing against each other.

I line myself up and push my dick between them, their lower lips wrapping around the top and bottom of my member. They moan lightly and in harmony as I grind against them.

I don't waste time and I immediately start thrusting, fucking the space between them. I can feel my dick on their sopping entrances, feel it brush past their hardened clits, and finally press against their stomachs, a layer of softness over hardened muscle.

They continue to moan, no longer in harmony, until Ni pulls Li into a kiss, and they start making out as I thrust. That only gets me hornier and I start thrusting faster and faster, the sound of flesh slapping together echoing through the room as I pound them.

They stop kissing when they cum, both crying out in ecstasy as their lower bodies spasm and shudder. I thrust a few more times and then cum as well, covering their bellies with my seed.

I don't wait to give them time to recover though. I immediately pull back, line myself up with Ni, and push my length into her in one go. She cries out, surprised, but it turns into a long moan very quickly.

Li pouts. "No fair!"

"Just wait your turn little kitten, I'll get to you next," I tell her as I start to thrust into Ni. "Why don't you give your sister something to do with her mouth?"

"Ooh, good thinking boss," Li says. She turns around so her crotch is above Ni's face and sits on it. Ni eagerly starts licking at her twin's cunt, causing Li to moan. I was thinking more along the lines of kissing her again, but this is even better.

I lean forward and kiss Li again as I thrust into Ni. I'm no stranger to sex with multiple girls, but the fact that they're twin catgirls who are more than willing to play with each other as well makes this entire scenario that much better.

I climax a few minutes later, grunting into Li's mouth as I fill Ni's insides with my cum. Ni tightens around me as I do and she orgasms from the feeling of me cumming inside of her.

I pull out of her and break my kiss with Li. "Time to swap, it's Li's turn," I say. They obey and in seconds Li is lying face up on the ground and Ni is on her knees next to her. Ni captures Li's lips with her own even as she presents her rear to me, her pussy lips framed by her toned legs.

I push my dick into Li, causing the girl to let out a muffled moan, and I accept Ni's offer and push two fingers into her, causing another muffled moan.

Their makeout session only gets more sloppy as I please the both of them. Li's breasts bounce up and down as I fuck her, one of them held in place as her sister starts groping her as they kiss. My fingers pump into Ni and I quickly find the spot that makes her react the strongest and focus on it hard.

Their kisses are interrupted by each of them letting out little mewls of pleasure as I work my magic on them, and I bring them to orgasm twice in the time it takes me to cum. I thrust deep into Li as I fill her up just as much as I did her sister.

As the twins take a minute to recover themselves I turn to face Ravel with a grin on my face. She's been watching us since the very beginning, and when I started fucking Ni she started fingering herself, her arousal skyrocketing.

"Now that I think about it, I don't see any reason you can't join us as well Ravel," I say. I wanted a chance to have fun with just Ni and Li, but now that I've done that it doesn't feel right to leave her out of it like this. "What do you say, girls?"

Ni purrs and Li smiles. "Come on Ravel, come play with us," Li says while beckoning her over.

Ravel only hesitates for an instant before she gets out of the bath and walks over to us. All three of us watch her, eyes roaming over her body as she does so.

"Move over Li, it's Ravel's turn," I tell the cat girl still laying on the ground. She nods and gets up enough for Ravel to lay down. Ravel is already breathing heavily and is extremely aroused. I smile down at her before I insert myself and indulge in her fiery hot insides.

Ni and Li position themselves on either side of Ravel and focus on her as I fuck her. Ni focuses on her boobs, taking the nipple of one of them into her mouth and playing with the other one using her fingers. Li goes lower and licks her clit as my dick thrusts into her. Both are fully focused on making Ravel feel as good as possible, and Ravel's moans show just how well it's working.

That's when I use [Link Sensations], using it to transmit what Ravel is feeling to both of the other girls. They moan out and arch their backs as they feel the phantom sensation of my dick thrusting into them.

Li moves away from Ravel's crotch and instead kneels next to me, clinging to me as I thrust into her King and kissing every inch of skin she can reach. With each thrust, she mewls slightly in pleasure. Ni moves up from Ravel's nipple and starts moaning into her mouth as they make out. Ravel doesn't hesitate at all and eagerly returns the kiss.

I continue to pound into Ravel's hot snatch, my actions getting rougher as my own arousal increases because of the sound of all three of them moaning and the girl-on-girl kissing happening in front of me.

Ravel is the first time cum, and the two catgirls follow behind her by only a few heartbeats, all three of them spasming and crying out in high-pitched voices even as I keep fucking them through their orgasm. I move rapidly, so close to my own climax, and with one final thrust, I bury my dick deep into Ravel and put a load inside of her as well.

Ni and Li shiver as they feel the phantom sensations of my cumming inside of them, but Ravel just melts in sheer pleasure, relaxing completely.

We take a moment to catch our breath, but not all of us are so patient. Li climbs over Ravel, her rear pointed at me. "My turn next!" Ni insists, and I grin. This is the best life I could have asked for.
