This morning, Mom and Mother announced their engagement to Gabrielle, one of my clones. Their marriage was planned for the next summer, and my most anticipated little sibling would be developed after that.
It was a bit whimsical since we did not hear about Sister's opinion first. We had sent her a letter about Gabrielle and the engagement, so she might be shocked once she read it. But we were truly hoping that she would understand and bless their matrimony.
Their future marriage would not bother me a bit since I was the one who suggested it to begin with. Moreover, I was fond of girls' love, which developed as I watched my parents at night, and joining them was the best part of it.
Even though Gabrielle had my mind—a man's mind—she was biologically a female and did not and would never possess a male part, so I personally had no complaints. And in my opinion, lesbian sex was not technically real; it was just women mutually masterbating one another.
I only saw their marriage as the seal of their mutual understanding of being part of my harem, strengthening the connections between my constituents. Also, it was to ostensibly cover Gabrielle's relationship with me so that she could be a part of our family officially.
Even if they became a married throuple, their role as my night partners would not diminish a bit. We would still be spending nights, or days, in their own marriage bed. They still needed my permission if they wanted to do it themselves.
By the way, Gabrielle was publicly known as homosexual and had two female lovers, Uriel and Lucy. About the future of their relationship, we had discussed not severe their relationship and taking Uriel and Lucy since they were included in the package as well.
"Everything is ready, milady."
"Thank you, Mary."
An hour after we finished our lunch, we were currently in front of our mansion as we were facing one of the opened black magic carriages; they were War Horse-drawn carriages, by the way.
Yesterday, the mansion was a little bit busy preparing for our trip. Today was the day when we would depart for the empire. There were only two carriages since there was not that much luggage to bring.
The first was for myself, Mom, Mother, Mary, and Gabrielle. She went along for her to formally introduce herself to my sister and Mom's family, as well as personally announcing her status change to her adventurer peers over there.
The second carriage was for our guards and the journalist. We still had to bring guards with us since we needed some people to watch our estate at the Imperial Capital. The journalist needed to deliver his scoop to the empire for it to publish so he came along with us as well.
As for our luggage and stuff, I just simply put them in my Inventory to make our cabin more spacious. Though I only stuffed our personal belongings and did not include the ones from the other vehicle.
"What are we waiting for. Let's get inside, everyone."
After she said that, Mom approached the spacious carriage and stepped inside. Once she took her seat, Mother followed her inside before Gabrielle walked in. After her was Mary, and then I entered myself before I closed the door back.
Shut.
I took my seat and glanced at the people in this expanded space. While I was sitting with Mary in the front seat, Mom, Mother, and Gabrielle settled themselves in the rear seat. Seeing that everything seemed alright, I then proceeded to the next step.
"Alright, I will be opening the portal."
"Go ahead, Raphael."
After the confirmation from Mother, I silently cast a certain spell. Nothing else happened inside since the spell was taking effect outside. Once done signaling the front coachman by conjuring a Portal in front of the caravan, the wheels of the black carriages then started to move.
What I was doing was skipping the long trip by transporting the caravan itself through my Portal spell. We really wanted to arrive at the empire as quickly as possible, so I came up with that idea for us to avoid long trip hassles.
"Having instant transportation really is convenient." Mother remarked. "I am truly grateful that Raphael had that spell."
"Of course I am a child of Mom after all."
"Even if you are my son," said Mom. "The accuracy of your Portal is notably higher than mine, which makes me feel very proud. You only visited the empire a few times, but you seem to pinpoint exactly where we will arrive. You must have a very good memory."
"Thank you, Mom." I nodded before turning my gaze to the platinum blonde beauty and asking. "By the way, Gabrielle, are you excited to meet Sister?"
"Of course, Raphael." Gabrielle happily responded. "Even though I have not seen her yet, I am certain that she must be a very beautiful lady, just like her mothers."
"Yes. Sister really is beautiful. I can guarantee that."
Ever since she was embodied, Gabrielle had never personally seen my sister; the same was true of the others. So her excitement was kind of genuine since it was like not seeing your loved one for a long time.
By the way, I strictly commanded the boys not to peek at my family, so they surely haven't seen them clairvoyantly or personally.
Since Gabrielle was soon to be a part of our family, we both decided to stop addressing each other like we used to. I thought it was certainly weird if Gabrielle called me SirBoss every time, so I had her call me by my name.
Knock. Knock.
As we were having a short chat, a pair of wooden knocks rang in the cabin; they were from the coachman, indicating that our carriage, which was at the rear, had passed the Portal and reached the other side of it.
When we took a look outside through the black window, we were already on a paved highway. I activated my detections and found no other pedestrians or vehicles in the radius of two hundred kilometers, so no one noticed our sudden appearance.
Actually, even though we did not want a long journey, we did not transport ourselves directly inside the walls of the Imperial Capital. We cannot just enter the city without passing the gate, so I set the other side of the Portal a kilometer away from the black walls of the Imperial Capital.
"We still have a few minutes before the estimated time of arrival." I noted that and then put my elbow on my knees before placing my chin over my clasped hands. "I have something to discuss."
"What is it, Raphael?"
"I have many things to settle after we arrive," I said as I stared at the three beautiful women in front. "And I need your assistance to achieve it."
"Anything for my son."
"Of course, Mommy is always here for you."
"Thank you, mothers."
"If Raphael needs my help, I am willing to offer my hand."
"I appreciate your aid, Gabrielle."
"Alright, everyone. Here are my plans..."
After that, I began breaking down my thoughts to everyone in the carriage as the War Horses were pulling our vehicle along the paved highway.
