Chapter 271

—–

After we finished playing around over bed, we decided to take a warm bath and relax, we had to assess things out and think what to do now, we were quite tired but the plans for the future ahead were not delayed or something, it was just a few hours of fun. We bathed together like we had never done before, the warm water was very comfortable, and Partner was quite aggressive in how much she kissed me in the bathroom, she’s really a passionate girl… And I am honestly not that possessive, so I end up submitting to her passion quite easily. Maybe I like being in the receiving end.

“Mooch… Hahh… P-Partner, I think this is enough…”

“Master you’re so precious… Let me kiss you a bit more…”

“Uwaah…”

At the end things escalated into some more lewd things… Partner ended playing with my entire body with her playful and devilish hands, and gave me a lot of pleasure. She was moving so dexterously that I began to doubt she used to be a pile of bones almost a year ago… However, at long last, I was freed from her hands and we quickly decided to walk outside after this… I was supposed to go eat lunch with everybody like half an hour ago.

When I took out the barrier which I had tried to make invisible, and we walked outside, I was greeted with Emeraldine and Lucifer… glaring me down angrily.

“What were you two doing? It’s already time for lunch!” Said Emeraldine.

“I don’t know why you had a barrier set up, did something bad happen?” Wondered Lucifer.

“Erm… Hahaha, nothing happened! I was just… We were practicing some crazy magic around so we had to make a barrier.” I said.

“Yeah, I didn’t wanted to destroy the manor.” Said Partner.

“Oh, alright. Did your magic developed further?” Wondered Lucifer.

“I can make threads now! I think I could also replicate phantasmal flames like the ones your breath attack can make.” I said with a smile. It seemed that Lucifer was captivated by such a smile, as he gave me a smile back.

“I see, you’ve grown pretty good at magic. Turning magic into threads? I never thought such a thing could even be possible… Also you seem to have learned the way to make phantom flames as well? That’s also quite rare and intriguing, but quite honestly, I am more amazed at how pretty you look today.”

“E-Eh? What with the flirting?” I asked.

“W-Well, I-I thought that would make you feel happy…” Sighed Lucifer, as he grew embarrassed. “Agh, I shouldn’t try it.”

“Eh? Nooo! I loved it!” I said. “You really mean it?”

“A-Ah, yeah… You look pretty today.” He said with a charming smile.

Uwaah! I just came out of being loved by Partner for hours and now this handsome dragon is calling me pretty?! I really feel like I am in some sort of dating sim game now out of nowhere. I think I might have the most amazing harem.

“Heeh~? Lucifer! You’re getting bolder!” Laughed Partner.

“Don’t mock me…” Said Lucifer. “I-I just think it was the right thing to do… A-Am I a bit out of touch? Should I say something more… something that the people of nowadays say?”

“No, dear, I love it.” I said. “I like your old styled way of speech. It is very charming.”

“I-I see… That’s good then.” He said while crossing his arms and puffing his chest, it seems that whenever I praised my grumpy dragon, his ego grew a bit and he felt more dignified.

“Y-You’re also looking very beautiful today, Maria-sama…” Sighed Emeraldine. “But I guess praising your beauty just doesn’t make the same effect now that somebody else said it, right?”

“I think you’re overthinking it, I am very happy to hear you said that.” I said.

“Well, I still have to be more original… Oh! Your hair, it looks so silky…” She said. “And your eyes today look like two beautiful jewels! And did I mention that dress looks gorgeous?” Emeraldine was trying quite hard to make me feel happy with myself, and it worked pretty well, I felt like I was floating in cloud nine with all her praises, to the point I started giggling like an idiot.

“Hehehe, okay, stop it already! Why do you praise me so much, I am not even that pretty…” I giggled. “All three of you are way too pretty in fact…”

Suddenly, Lucifer, Emeraldine, and Partner blushed a bit, as they seemed to grow a bit nervous and embarrassed.

“A-Anyways, let’s go eat.” Said Lucifer.

“I agree…” Said Emeraldine.

“Food… I am starving… I want some blood too.” Said Partner.

And like that, we went to eat some lunch, we prepared some different food today, now that we got some conventional meat, we decided to grill some big and meaty steaks, and I also did mashed potatoes, and some salad, a change of pace from the usual stew, although it was very cold so the food would get cold quickly, we hurriedly began eating before that were to happen.

“This steak, what is it?” Wondered Emeraldine.

“This steak is from Ice Bisson, it is a species of cow-like monster but its pretty big and can survive in this cold temperature very easily.” I said. “The meat has a lot of fat, and it is rich in calories.”

“H-Huh, I am already getting fat with having to eat so much to keep the warm…” Sighed Emeraldine. “Now I have to eat this fatty steak which is… Hmm… so good…”

“See? It is pretty good, you can’t really escape it!” I laughed maliciously.

“Geez! You’re really a villain when you want to, don’t you, Maria-sama?” Cried Emeraldine.

“I am grateful that I don’t get fatter, all the calories go into my tail.” Said Lucifer.

“What? I didn’t knew that!” I said.

“Well, Lizards, Dragons, and other species store calories in our tails, if they get fatter it means we are well feed and healthy.” Said Lucifer.

“Interesting… I didn’t knew that fact.” I said while rubbing my chin.

Imagining Lucifer walking with a very thick tail now is something I want to see.
