74 The Flame of a Father

Reaching the peak, I burst forward, dropping my hips unleashing a load into a woman screaming in ecstasy. Pleasure blanked my mind for a moment. I turned to another, smiling after breaking my hips. I retreated from the pleasurable folds of whom I just took and moved on to the next one. I mindlessly fucked for hours. Hours turned to days. Days turned to weeks. I lost myself in lust for a while.

Then I stopped. I do not know what day it was, but my mind told me I had other things to be doing. I ejaculated into a Blue bunny-kin, and she cried my name despite me not knowing hers. My mind was exhausted, and I pushed her to the side onto a bed. I looked around, registering things for the first time in a while. Around were rich expensive pieces, but I looked past that. There were enchantments on the walls. Powerful enchantments and I looked at the deeper learning their complicated meaning.

I stepped out with ejaculate all over me, leaving the room behind with many Bunny-kin women inseminated. I exited the room, and that was when I saw Mally. She smiled as she saw me and guided me to the shower. I cleaned myself up and looked at her.

"How long?" I asked in a raspy voice.

"One month. Your mother expected less, but your stamina is amazing." She said with a smile. I looked around, and I felt good. I put on my clothes and went to my kids. They were playing in various ways in a large playroom. When I entered, they all screamed in happiness that I entered. There were many bunny-kin women around looking after the kids. I started to play with a couple of my kids, trying to release myself of the enchantment.

An hour or so later, I got up and left the room, telling their sad faces of my parting I would be back. I got to my bedroom, separate from where I was before. I looked at the room, checking the enchantments. This time I saw nothing special and sat down on the floor. I entered a meditative trance. Mana flowed and ebbed. I found my center and the afflictions in my mind. I slowly cleansed them of impurities. Finally, I became myself.

I took a deep sigh. It was only a month. I will have received a lot of points for the system with this. I proceeded to chant things in my head to calm down and found my center again. I went into a deep meditation. Time passed, and I opened my eyes. I felt good, and I stood up. I unlocked my personal room. No one was outside the doors. I walked to the exit and saw Mina with her little doll of me. Her eyes widened, seeing me, and she ran towards me with arms stretched out. "Daddy!" She happily yelled out. I felt a pang of guilt, but I scooped her up off the ground, smiling. She happily told me about her interactions with the other mothers and kids. She was extremely excited to be learning more about water and how to use it with mana. I listened to her as I exited the living space we were in. I carried her as I went up the stairs listening to her tell me everything that happened around me while I was out of it.

I was mad, but no longer angry. Mina was very happy as she went on and on. I smiled, melted at her cuteness. Up I went taking my time interacting with Mina. I sent a mana message to her mother so she wouldn't worry. I moved swiftly, ascending the tower coming up to the elevator, and walked past. I ascended the stairs of the large tower. Many Wizards nodded to me, and I did the same as I talked to my little MIna. Soon we were almost at the top. I felt two mana fluctuations inside. One I was familiar with, the other felt even more powerful than I was used to. I opened the door, and the two turned to look at me. I smiled.

My mother turned to me surprised, and the other male bunny-kin wizard looked surprised as well. I set Mina down on the floor. She was a smart girl and read the room quickly. She looked up to me, and I put a hand on her head, ruffling her cute dog ears and hair. I earned a smile from her.

"Go with Grandma back down. I have something important to do, Sweety." I told her. My mother was not an idiot, either. She quickly gathered up Mina and left the room with a confused little girl. I entered the room. Inside enchantments were rampant around the walls. Time seemed to warp as the door closed. I looked at the Silver Bunny-kin. It was the first time we met, and his eyes locked with mine.

"Chelsea," His voice almost echoed in the almost empty room.

"Father?" I asked back to confirm my suspicions.

"So we meet for the first time—my most talented daughter." His voice was strong and confident.

"So we do..." My tone was monotone. "So, I guess you and the higher-ups have more of my genetics running around in the tower in about nine months?"

"You think we wouldn't do that?" He asked in a mocking tone.

"Nope, I was going to impregnate a bunch of women anyway. My genetic material is useful to our race and country. Why wouldn't I breed women?"

His face changed from straight-faced, "Well, we caught what you said to your Uncle. Hermon,"

I laughed. "You don't even try to deny it. I am remarkably like you in ways, father. I will be in my kid's lives very little but take the credit for all the good ones, Eh?" I said in a self-mocking tone, and the atmosphere in the room changed.

"You are my daughter and my current Heir Chelsea. You have never been interested. You have only ever looked at your research while you lived here, ignoring everything around you except those who have answers. Now, after a journey, you have found that you care about things?" He asked with a mocking tone back at me. All of a sudden, a desk appeared in the room. It came along with a chair on either side of it. He moved, sitting in the chair, looking like a big boss. I was surprised, but I moved forward to sit.

"You are my daughter and never seemed me out earlier in life like all your other siblings. What do you want?" His tone was harsh.

"I want all my kids to be my family. None will be appointed to any wizards. Each of the women I impregnated without my consent, the kids will live with me. This tower will become our families stomping grounds." I told him flatly, and I saw gears turning in his head.

"What are you thinking, Chelsea?" His face seemed to be changing emotions quickly.

"I have decided, Father. I am the Heir. Our family owns the Tower only by us, retaining the most powerful mages. What do we have now, Father? I am a talent generating machine. We don't need to fall under the feet of others if we want. We don't need the other families if we choose. Only two things are stopping us." I finish looking into his startled eyes. It was like he was looking at a madman.

"I need to reach an A-Rank like you, and you need to step down after I am." I smiled brightly.

"WHAT?!" He stopped after exclaiming. He looked serious as he dropped into thought as he considered things. "You are right, Chelsea. You could, but the other families wouldn't be steamrolled like this..." He looked down, thinking more about it. "The War?"

"That's how we can do it. We, the Bunny-kin, will be going to war very soon. I only need to make some achievements and win. No, the biggest factor isn't the other families. It is your father. You are the shadow ruler of our people." I looked at him, and he looked startled. "When was the last time you have left the tower? When was the last time you did anything other than sitting atop this tower or in the library receiving reports? I don't even understand the process of how I became the Heir, and I am the fucking Heir to our nation. No, our biggest problem is the system here is you, Father. You sold me out to breed without even thinking about other alternatives our family could have taken. You have no imagination. You keep the status quo. You are the biggest problem of the Bunny-kin even though you are one of our biggest protections."

He looked at me with serious contemplation. "What are your plans?"

I sighed, "I will be an Envoy to the Demon lands and try to bring them closer to the bunny-kins if not the Beast-kin Country. If I do, we can wage real war with the Empire. Let's avoid the Kingdom, though. We don't want to attack humans as a Race. We don't want to make our problems with an entire race just an ideology. We will take the moral high ground. I want the war to start when we get something out of the demon lands, father. This means some type of commitment. Once we have that, we can Attack. I think the Dwarves are close to the Kingdom of Arlin. So maybe with about sixty percent chance that if we don't threaten them, we can keep the dwarves off us. I could be wrong; I could be right. What we need after that is to solidify our alliances with the Demon lands. What we also snagged before we left the Elves is a trade deal. We should prioritize a major road through the mountains there. The Elves will take care of the rest. This will increase our spending power. Next, we need to change our culture. We need to change from worship to the Strong culture to worship the capable. A merchant making gold should be just as worshiped as a person who can kill fifty thousand. We then need to do education and teach magic manipulations of all types to all bunny-kin without question. As long as they are a citizen of our country, they get an education. These are my basic first steps, father. Stop treading water, and let's progress as a nation!" I finished an impassioned speech to my father. I looked him dead into his eyes.

Our tribe isn't wealthy, but it wasn't poor. We hadn't changed, though, after freeing ourselves. The only thing we have done is to tread water. I wanted my kids to grow in a better world. After I saw my kids, a flame had been put into my heart. I wanted the best for them. I wanted to give the world to their agile minds to do as they wish. I wanted them to see a better world than a noble one. Our poor were dirt poor, and our rich were very rich. This could be changed for the next generation.

"Where is this coming from?" He asked me.

"I WANT MY KIDS TO LIVE A BETTER LIFE THAN ME! I WANT THEIR KIDS TO LIVE BETTER LIVES THAN THEM!" I yelled out in his face. I took a deep breath before I continued, "I lived the same life you lived. My mother lived the same life I lived. The only progress was in research. When I saw my kids for the first time, something changed in me. I am a Father. When I awoke from those enchantments, I needed to see my kids, who were all happy to see me. I want to see those smiles every time I see them. They are pure. I have been a terrible Father. But that doesn't mean I can't change what they will grow up in. Each of my kids will have the best education they can get because they are all talented. But that isn't the biggest reason." I smacked the table, "It is because I am related to you! You are a horrible father, even worse than me. I am fifteen, with almost sixty kids, and I met you for the first time today. At least my kids have seen my face!" I took another deep breath and closed my eyes. I opened my eyes again, looking at his much more stable face.

"For now, You are the leader. I need you to act like one father. We need more than a powerhouse. We need a Leader. This shit with you staying in the tower all day every day isn't acceptable. You are not the only A-Rank Wizard in the tower. We need to grow, Or we will die. Not now but later. In years or decades, maybe centuries. We need to change; if you won't, I will."

"Okay, I will remember your advice, Chelsea." He pointed at the door. My eye twitched at the dismissive attitude.

I stood up and walked out of the room, only hearing a sigh come from behind me.
