"Pekorina?" asked Ervas, glancing at the young Rabbit-kin girl as she had grabbed his hand.
?
"A-Ah… W-Well I just… felt like grabbing your hand, peko…" said Pekorina while flushing so much that she was almost becoming a tomato.
"I see," said Ervas, continuing to eat without much concern, the warm hand of Pekorina was rather comfortable for Ervas cold hands, making him enjoy the food better.
"T-They are already grabbing hands?! Haah, they sure grow fast…" said Jason.
"How old is Ervas again?" asked Ismene.
"Around… a bit more than three years old now, it has been over a year since Veronica appeared in our lives, the trip towards the beach of this continent has been quite long, even while flying… I believe that traveling above the ocean towards the Demon Continent will take even longer… I hope not a whole year though," sighed Jason.
"He already looks like a boy on his seven years of age despite being three… His powers have developed a lot, giving him a great growth spur," said Ismene.
"Yeah… As he Ranks Up he looks slightly older every time, it worries me a bit, I don't want him to become an adult yet, there is a lot of childhood he has to live!" said Jason.
"But isn't Ervas like over forty if you count his two previous lives?" asked Alesia.
"…That's right," said Jason, sighing as he was reminded of the actual mental age of Ervas, although it was not as if he did not enjoy being a kid.
"Gishi… Mama!" said a large black spider with the upper torso of a beautiful little girl, who came running from the door!
Her lower half was that of a large, around two meters large black spider, covered in a metallic exoskeleton, while her upper half was pale white and transparent, even phantasmagoric, her hair was long and wine-colored, and her eyes scarlet red, like a small version of Veronica!
She wore a dress over her upper half, although it was her armor which she had shaped like a dress like her mother.
"Oh, my little Kuro, come with us!" said Veronica, calling to Kuro, the little black metallic spider she created through an egg she made six months ago.
Kuro jumped over her mother as she hugged her tightly with her many legs, kissing her.
"Charlotte-nee-sama is still sleeping, but I sneaked to eat something, what are you eating?" asked Kuro, grabbing a piece of meat and eating it without asking if she could even do that to her mother.
"We are having lunch made by Pekonisia and Pekobelle, I didn't want to wake you up as you were sleeping, sorry about that…" said Veronica, smiling dearly at her daughter.
"It's fine!" said Kuro, as she was served a lot of food by Lilith.
"Here it is, young lady, enjoy the food," she said politely.
"Thanks!" said Kuro, digging at the moment her plate came to her.
Although Veronica had a bit of a hard time accepting that she had just made laid an egg and created a child out of nowhere in the most anti-climatic way possible, she slowly accepted her role as a mother more than simply being a small motherly figure for her tamed monsters and took upon Kuro with the help of Shade, Anna, Charlotte, and Aqua.
"Kuro-chan, how are you?" asked Aqua, who was currently in the large hall, having learned a way to shrink the size of her enormous body without losing the water she accumulated inside, she extended a tentacle and petted Kuro with it.
"I'm fine! Do you like my dress, Aqua-nee-sama? I made it with my armor!" said Kuro adorably.
"It looks beautiful, gubo!" said Aqua.
"It does indeed look very beautiful," said Veronica with a warm smile.
Suddenly the doors opened as another figure emerged, a beautiful fairy, who also brought a woman at her side, Ditoyle, a former guard of the Squirrel-kin tribe and now a royal guard of the Kingdom of Igni, a tall Squirrel-kin woman with a large scar across her chest, glossy chocolate-colored skin, dark-colored hair and tail, and chestnut-colored eyes while wielding a long spear.
She has an overprotective nature and guards the tribe for years until everyone ended up moving inside of Veronica's soul.
"Oh! Kireina, Ditoyle, come sit with us~" said Veronica.
"We were already thinking where you were," said Ervas.
Ditoyle seemed a bit tired but happy, as she rested on Kireina's shoulders while the two walked towards the table.
"Well… we were doing a few things together," said Kireina with a mischievous smile.
"Phew… Honestly, if you had asked me a few months ago if I would have been with someone like Kireina, I would have never believed you…" said Ditoyle.
"Eh? What's with that comment?" said Kireina while pouting.
"Hehe, nothing~," said Ditoyle.
"There are so many lovebirds in here that I am beginning to think that I need someone at my side now…" sighed Ismene, as she glanced at Jason with a smile.
"EH? I-I am married!" said Jason.
"Fufu, alright… I was just testing the waters," said Ismene.
Indeed, Ditoyle, four months ago had begun a relationship with Kireina.
Although it was mostly provoked by many circumstances put together, Kireina was already looking for a girl to cuddle with at night, and although she was charming and beautiful, many people didn't follow nor came near her as much as Ervas and Veronica, so the opportunities to actually get herself a cute girl to cuddle with were not as easy as it was with her main body.
Being a side character was a bit harder for her, but in the end, she ended up getting into a meeting that the Igni Kingdom had recently made where single women and men could go to try and met a partner, as it was a new program that Ervas and Veronica set for different races to grow interested in others, specially Squirrel-kin who were all women.
As Kireina had both genders in actuality, she ended up being assigned with Ditoyle from all the girls around, although Ditoyle had rather a low self-esteem due to her ugly scar that some people did not fancy, or her large musculature that even fewer men fancied, she quickly grew attached to Kireina due to her gentleness and supernatural beauty, appearance, powers, and charm.
And well, that Kireina constantly praised her body as beautiful despite what she thought of herself and even loved her scar as it just meant that she was a strong woman, who Kireina had always fancied.
Although Ditoyle at first wanted to be with a man so she could mate and have children and a family, she still fell in love with Kireina, and later on realized that Kireina did indeed had two genders, several times through several different nights, in fact.
Even when Kireina was a literal alien, her personality and care for others ended up warming up to Ditoyle, and against what she ever believed, she even got pregnant.
Yes, she got pregnant by Kireina, someone from a completely different world.
…She could not believe it at first, but Ervas and Veronica confirmed this after several checkups.
In her original world, Kireina had the power of the Sin of Lust, which let her breed even with people of other races, this power was passed into this clone of her, which had already become its own being, and after many weeks of sweaty nights, Ditoyle was given the gift she had always been waiting for.
Her belly has bulged a bit since then, but it seemed that the child would take its sweet time developing in her womb… although for her, it did not mean that Kireina should stop giving her love every night… or day, so they had just come back from that business.
Perhaps Ditoyle was growing way too addicted to Kireina, but she could not help it, the moment she lost her virginity to her is the moment she became enamored with her wonderful bedroom techniques.
There was not any night where she was not pleasured masterfully by Kireina, and this made her even more attached to her.
Now a bit more than four months after that, the two were a well-established couple and Ditoyle was often always at Kireina's side, and had grown particularly strong thanks to her intense training as well.
"Kireina… say 'Aaah'…" said Ditoyle, lovingly giving a piece of meat to Kireina with a warm smile and enamored eyes.
"D-Do you have to do this? Geez… Aaah," said Kireina, although she complained a bit, she always gave in to Ditoyle's cuteness.
Ditoyle glanced at Kireina slowly approach her moth to the piece of meat as she ate it, her beautiful face and her flawless beauty made her think that she had hit the lottery by having such an adorable and caring beauty as her wife, even if she was an alien or something that she didn't even care about at this point.
"I wonder what name the baby will have?" asked Ismene with an interesting smile, she was the chief of the Squirrel-kin tribe and knew Ditoyle quite well to be close to her to the extent of asking her this.
"Hmm… It has been a bit hard to decide…" said Ditoyle.
"We are still thinking about it, but maybe we could name her after Ditoyle's mother," said Kireina.
"Oh, really? How cute…" said Ismene.
"How were things outside?" asked Ervas.
"Oh right! There are a few coastal towns outside, and we went to buy some things from there… They were selling fresh fish and sea algae, and even crabs and lobster, so we brought a ton of stuff, maybe we could make it for dinner!" said Kireina.
"Oh, sounds nice!" said Veronica.
"Hm… it has truly been a long journey, but we are finally in here, the sea that connects the continents," said Ervas.
"Onwards to the Demon Continent then!" said Veronica, raising her glass of wine.
"I am going to drink the whole ocean, guubo!" said Aqua.
"No, Aqua, don't try that…" said Ervas.
