My bike began to accelerate, giving my body a gust of wind. Not long after, I saw Xenora coming up to me from the side. The succubus was being followed by Velvet, who was riding a wyvern.
"You look so cool, my lord!!!" A woman's scream came from my other side. Emily came at me on her undead wyvern. Looks like she just got home. "Damn, that thing rocks!"
The women flew to my right and left, giving smiles and nods.
"Alright." Since I got a good feel for this thing, I ducked, pressed my chest against the bike's body, then pulled the throttle deeper. And in just an instant, the speed of my bike increased many times. The wind hitting me became more robust, and the rushing wind entering my ears grew louder.
I laughed, enjoying the sensation I felt. It's even more fun than just flying using my wings. Apart from getting a higher speed, this machine also gives an entirely different feeling.
I continued to increase the speed, then pulled the brake lever. The several plates of this thing expand to catch the wind, and the exhausts in the front provide the rear thrust. This machine slows down. I straightened and tilted my body to the maximum.
In fact, I look more like huddled sideways in this thing than just tilting my body.
This bike turns spurred my adrenaline to increase even more. "Woohoo!!!"
I continue to ride this machine, cutting through the evening air, which is getting colder.

I started to lower the bike when it was getting late. Nate, my assistant shapeshifters, and women are waiting in the clearing. Ayre and Lexi have also joined them.
Because this was my first time using the flying bike, I messed up a bit, and the front almost hit a tree.
"It's okay, my lord!" Nate ran to me enthusiastically. "We didn't expect this trial to be so successful!"
I got off the flying bike and held the scientist's shoulders. "I'm going to give you an amazing present, Nate. I promise."
My women also ran to me. They all wore smiles, and Lexi jumped up and down with joy.
They stopped in front of me and were about to touch my cheeks. However, their hands collided because they did it simultaneously. In an instant, the atmosphere became awkward.
I laughed, hugging them alternately instead.
"Are you happy, my lord?" Xenora and Velvet asked.
Phisovia and Emily also gave me a question. "I so want to try that!"
"How does it feel, my lord?" Lexi approached me with sparkling eyes.
They all also asked those questions simultaneously. Only Ayre just smiled at me.
I can feel that this awkward atmosphere is getting stronger.
"I hate having to spoil all of this, my lord." Ayre widened her smile. "However, you have a schedule to inaugurate the judge council."
"Ah, I should have done it this afternoon." I chuckled. "I got too excited and forgot about it."
"I'm sure they'll understand," Ayre answered me.
"Nate, there are a few things I want to talk to you about, mostly about the settings and comfort of this bike. The other parts are almost perfect." I spoke to the scientist. "But I will discuss that with you tomorrow."
"No problem, my lord." Nate gave a thumbs up. His shapeshifter-like blank expression is back again. "I also have to check this thing first."
Once Nate joined his assistants in checking out the bike, I made my way to the base with my girls.
"I'm happy to be flying with you again, my lord." Phisovia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Me too." I put my arm around Velvet and Emily's waist. "I've been thinking about many things using that thing."
"New sex positions!?"
The doctor's words made us pause and slow down. Lexi looked at us in turn, then looked down with a red face.
And I laughed again.

We all split up when we got to the base and had dinner. Xenora and I walked together toward the meeting room.
"Before you formalize the panel of judges, don't you think that I, the candidate, should be punished first?" the succubus asked, then gulped.
I raised an eyebrow. That question caught me off guard. "What do you mean, Xenora?"
She fiddled with her fingers, looking down slightly, and a blush started to color her cheeks. "Well, it doesn't feel right as a law enforcer. I still have mistakes that I haven't made up for."
I laughed, starting to understand the direction this conversation was going. "Yeah, you've gone against my will by nominating Nymira to be general. And you stay away from Phisovia too, and I want you all to get along. I should have punished you."
"Please, don't be too hard on me…."
I held her chin, forcing her to face me. "Ooh, you won't remember that punishment with every inch of your body."
She began to shake, her eyes half closed.
This woman looks scared, but I know she wants it.
"However, we must attend the meeting first." I took my hand off her.
She cleared her throat and straightened up, then we entered the meeting room. Karl, Mason, Jude, Szur, Garthur, and a green-skinned Bwister were already seated around a round table. They immediately stood up and bowed to me.
"I hope you are not bored and tired of waiting for me." I sat on the chair, looking at them one by one. "I won't be long. You all already know this important task. Not only will you bring justice to the residents of this community, but you will also make the necessary regulations."
I paused in my words, making sure they were really listening. "When this place gets bigger and becomes a city, maybe we'll recruit additional judges. And if our system is successful, I will spread it to other areas. Do you guys understand?"
"We understand, my lord." They answered in unison.
"With this, I officially authorize the judge council of the empire of Vorn."
Right after I said that, a level-up notification appeared on my game UI. It's been a while. It turns out that forming an institution like this also gives me experience points.
Without thinking twice, I chose a passive skill that makes soldier production costs 25% cheaper.
