Chapter 126: Chapter : 126 : Road Trip!

The door creaked open.

“Took you long enough—” Aiden began, but his voice cut out when his brain caught up with his vision. “…the fuck?”

Seraphina struck a dramatic pose like she’d been waiting her whole life for this moment. “Tadaa! Well?? How do I look? Don’t hold back—praise me.”

Serica practically threw herself forward, leaning so close her breath touched his lips. “What about me, huh? I’m hotter, right? Right?? Say it. Say it loud.”

Nivara fidgeted with her fingers, head lowered. “I… uhm… it’s embarrassing…”

Varra pulled gently at her sleeves, cheeks glowing. “P-Please don’t stare so much…”

Aiden’s mouth moved before his brain approved. “Damn… I told you to disguise yourselves, not—make yourselves hotter.”

Seraphina and Serica immediately squealed in perfect sync.

“Ehh? You think we’re hotter? Kyaaa~”

“He totally wants us,” Serica whispered loudly.

Seraphina leaned right beside his ear. “His eyes are screaming yes please.”

“Tch. They don’t look that good,” Luna scoffed, arms crossed tightly under her chest.

“Nooo~ They’re gorgeous!” Leona countered, cheerfully swinging her legs. “New mummies look sooo beautiful!”

Seraphina clutched her cheeks dramatically. “Aww! Thank you, Leona! At least somebody appreciates me.”

Serica ruffled Leona’s hair with a grin. “You’ve got good taste, kid. Unlike grumpy-boobs over there.”

“Hah?!” Luna’s aura crackled. “Who are you calling grumpy-boobs!?”

Seraphina’s eyes deliberately dropped to Luna’s chest. “…Well. You do kind of lead with them.”

“S-Shut up!! Idiot!!”

Thristle’s cackle slithered through the air. “Honestly? Forget disguises. They should just walk around naked. Save everyone the trouble.”

Nivara made a noise like a dying kettle. “Wha—?! W-Who says stuff like that!?”

Varra hid her face behind her sleeves. “I-I can’t… t-that’s indecent…”

“Indecent is fun, shy girls,” Thristle purred. “Don’t knock it till you try it.”

Selvara’s glare went nuclear. “D-Don’t say weird crap like that in front of everyone! Idiot pervert!”

“Ohhh?” Thristle tilted her head mockingly. “You sound jealous. Wanna strip too?”

“I— I’D NEVER!!” Selvara exploded. “D-Don’t even—!!”

Nyxion pinched the bridge of his nose. “…This conversation is getting ridiculous.”

Ivy tilted her head, genuinely lost. “But why would anyone walk naked outside? Wouldn’t you catch a cold?”

Seraphina nearly choked laughing. “See? Even innocent Ivy knows it’s stupid!”

“Or maybe Ivy just wants him to pet her—” Thristle added wickedly.

“H-HEY!!” Ivy flailed. “N-No!!”

“Oh dear…” Vegia mumbled, fanning herself nervously. “This is getting a bit… heated…”

“Heated indeed,” Lysandra said with a calm, amused tone. “Though perhaps that was the goal?”

“Let calm down,” Zera interjected firmly.

“Oh c’mon,” Serica snorted, clutching Aiden’s shoulder like she owned it. “Admit it, Zera. You’re impressed too.”

Zera’s eye twitched. “…I will not dignify that with a response.”

Fluffynugget hopped onto Aiden’s other shoulder like a tiny judgmental king.

“Mii! Mii mii!!”

“Even the damn furball thinks you look hot…” Aiden muttered.

Seraphina leaned in with a sly smirk. “So? Just admit it already. You like it.”

“Yes. Too hot.” He said proudly.

“Don’t you dare get fooled by them!” Luna snapped. “They’re just showing off!”

“Showing off? Us?” Serica gasped dramatically. “Nooo~”

“We’re pure maidens, just wearing clothes,” Seraphina declared with fake innocence.

“Y-You two are not pure!!” Selvara yelled. “Stop spouting garbage!!”

“Pure?” Thristle snorted. “If they’re pure, then I’m a virgin priestess.”

“C-Can we not… talk like this…” Nivara squeaked, blushing harder.

“But you look suuuper cute when you’re embarrassed!” Nyxion giggled, poking her arm.

“S-Stop teasing me…!”

“Hey hey hey—why are you ignoring me?” Serica demanded, tugging Aiden’s sleeve. “Look at me! Am I hotter than her?!”

“Excuse you—” Seraphina seized his other arm. “I’m the hot one here. Don’t try to steal the spotlight!”

“I-I don’t think it’s a competition…” Varra murmured softly.

“Oh it’s always a competition when it comes to who gets in My King’s bed first,” Thristle grinned darkly.

“THRISTLE!!!” Everyone roared at once.

Vegia sighed, defeated. “Why am I surrounded by children.”

“I don’t get it,” Ivy said innocently. “What’s wrong with sharing a bed? I sleep with Fluffynugget all the time…”

“Ivy…” Selvara whispered, face in hand. “…You really don’t get it, do you…”

“Get what??”

“Don’t worry,” Thristle cackled. “I’ll explain in great detail later.”

“N-No thank you!!”

Aiden dragged a hand down his face. “This is gonna give me a headache…”

“Don’t act so grumpy~” Serica cooed, hugging his arm tighter, pressing her boobs tightly against him “You’re secretly enjoying this.”

“Yeah,” Seraphina teased, poking his cheek. “Your face is totally red right now.”

“That’s not—!! It’s just—shut up!!”

“Ha!” Luna pointed at him. “He’s flustered. Master!”

“Aww, I think it’s cute,” Arisha smiled.

“I… I think so too…” Varra whispered shyly.

“ENOUGH!” Selvara finally boomed. “We cannot waste more time with this nonsense!”

“She’s totally jealous too,” Seraphina whispered to Serica.

“Yup. One hundred percent.”

“I HEARD THAT!” Selvara snapped.

“MIIIII!!” Fluffynugget shrieked like a war horn.

Aiden groaned. “Shut up, fluffball. You’re not helping either.”

The carriage jostled along the road. Aiden sat in the center of one side, Luna clinging to his right arm, his hand resting on her belly.

Seraphina hugged his left arm tightly, pressing close, while Serica settled on his lap, arms wrapped around his neck, nudging deliberately so he could feel every curve.

“Child of Prophecy,” Serica purred, leaning in, pressing closer. “You look so serious, Sir. Like… plotting something naughty?”

Aiden chuckled, trying to shift but only managing to press Seraphina harder against his arm. “Maybe…”

“You’re plotting, My King,” Thristle said from the opposite row, lounging against Nyxion with a smirk. “You’re plotting so hard your My Kinh aura is radiating.”

Vegia pinched the bridge of his nose. “Princess, must you be such a devil every second?”

“Every second is fun, My King,” Thristle replied, ignoring her entirely.

Varra leaned forward slightly, voice timid. “Sir… I… hope everyone is behaving…”

“Varra, relax,” Aiden said. “Just… don’t faint when Serica squishes you.”

Serica giggled, letting her chest press fully against him as she leaned back, grinning. “Oh, you love it. Admit it. My body against yours is… irresistible.”

“Well… I am not denying that,” Aiden muttered, grinning.

“Child of Prophecy,* she whispered, cheek brushing his jaw. “It suits you.”

Luna huffed beside him. “Stop teasing!”

“Pfft,” Seraphina said, smirking, arms still draped around him. “He’s totally enjoying.”

“I… am—” he started, only for Luna to press her forehead against his shoulder. “Ugh. Master!”

“Exactly,” Seraphina said.

Venya, sitting across with Nyxion, cleared her throat. “My Lord… this… commotion… cannot continue for long. Concentrate, My Lord. We have… tasks ahead.”

Aiden groaned. “Venya, I see that… but your calm isn’t helping. Everyone else is… chaos.”

“Onii-chan…” Ivy whispered softly, Fluffynugget snuggled to her chest, tiny paws kneading lightly. “Onii-chan, do you like being squished?”

“Yes, yes, My King does,”Thristle said wickedly, leaning on Arisha’s shoulder. “It’s… delightful, My King. Right, Sir?”

“I am not answering that.” He replied casually.

Luna pouted angrily “Master will not be flustered by you two. Stop pretending you’re cute, Princess.”

“Pretending? Oh, you’re looking at me like I’m not adorable,” Seraphina teased, smirking.

“I’m… I’m…” Aiden muttered, rubbing his temples. “I’m focused. That’s all.”

“Focused on Serica squishing you,” Thristle added, grinning devilishly from across.

Arisha leaned back, “Sir… you’re being horribly controlled by them.”

Aiden didn’t answer.

Nivara buried her face in her hands. “Sir… they’re… too much.”

“Yes, too much chaos,” Vegia mumbled nervously, fanning herself. “Sir… everyone… is… too forward…”

Lysandra, sitting upright, gave a small, elegant nod. “Sir… you must remain in control. Though… a certain amusement seems inevitable.”

Seraphina leaned in again, whispering in his ear. “Sir… say you like it. Say it, or I’ll pout.”

“I—” Aiden froze. Luna pressed closer, reminding him of her belly, soft weight against his hand. “Ugh… fine! It’s… fine.”

“Fine?” Serica squirmed against him. “Fine? Only Child of Prophecy gets away with ’fine’?”

Aiden chuckled.

“Sir… you’re adorable when flustered,” Seraphina added, cheek pressing against his arm.

“Master…” Luna huffed, nudging him gently.

“I… maybe… just a little,” Aiden whispered, voice low.

“Child of Prophecy… you love being squished like this,” she teased, chest pressing lightly against his.

“I—do—!” He said, but his hand tightened around Luna automatically, thumb rubbing lightly over her belly.

“Master…” Luna whispered, resting her head lightly against his shoulder.

“Ugh… Serica, stop moving!”

Serica only giggled, pressing closer. “Sir… you like it. Don’t lie.”

“Master… quiet,” Luna said, nudging him gently. “You’re mine. Not theirs.”

“My Lord…” Selvara piped up, voice clipped. “… control yourself before they overwhelm you.”

“I… I’m trying!” Aiden hissed.

Venya leaned forward, voice soft but firm. “My Lord… Where are we going, My Lord?”

Aiden exhaled heavily. “To buy slaves.”

A hush fell over the carriage.

Nivara looked at him with wide eyes. “What?”

“Slaves?” Seraphina asked, eyes narrowing, voice low. “Sir… seriously?”

“Yes,” Aiden replied, voice deadpan.

“Why…” Varra whispered softly.

“Heart Lord…” Nyxion muttered, clearly amused. “Slaves? Really?”

Vegia mumbled, fanning herself frantically. “Sir… too many… too much… going on…”

“Sir…” Arisha leaned over from across, asked. “Why do you want to buy one?”

“Cause the system says, I’ll find my next companion their.”
