(Pov Kaede)
After confessing my feelings to Sir Houjin, I immediately informed his wives. Since I wanted to join their ranks, it felt proper. Surprisingly, instead of the words of hate and disdain I was expecting, they welcomed me with open arms. They treated me like we were long-lost sisters that finally got to meet again. Confused by their reactions, I asked why they didn't hate me.
Sherra:Look, honey, we understand how attractive Houjin is, so we have long prepared for there to be other women.
The others also expressed their agreement with Sherra's words. They were all happy to have me in their ranks. After that, they started to explain more about being with him. We even came up with plans to help me seduce him. One of them was this trip where we could be alone together. Everything moved smoothly beyond belief; actually, I have to say it may gone too smoothly. I mean, what were the odds he would create a motorcycle?
Now, we find ourselves in an inn with him pressing me against the bed. From what the others said, Houjin was the personification of lust itself. They described being with him as perfectly satisfying. They said he was magically able to know what they wanted and how. Even now, although he was forceful initially, he didn't just take me. Instead, he gently stroked my body while giving tender and loving kisses.
Houjin:Kaede, please tell me if at any point you feel uncomfortable.
I nodded while fighting back the moan that almost slipped out. His gentle touch and caress ignited a lustful fire in my body, which slowly grew. My mind slipped into a fog, so his mind moved up my leg. I could feel my lower lips tremble as my breath quickened. I enjoyed his caresses, trying to push down my nervousness. I was worried that if I asked him to stop them, he wouldn't want me any longer. Houjin must have sensed my fears because the lust in his eyes melted away, leaving only tender love.
Houjin:Kaede, no matter what, I will always care about you girls' feelings first, so you shouldn't ever force yourself.
As he said those kind words, Houjin gently kissed my forehead before lying down next to me. Overwhelmed by his love I snuggled closer to them, putting my head on his chest and enjoying the sound of his heartbeat. Each beat seemed to work like a lullaby, slowly lulling me to sleep. The passed peace as light from the sun woke me up the next day.
Houjin was smiling gently while stroking my hair, causing me to blush.
Kaede:I am sorry you have been awake long.
Houjin:I didn't sleep last night. You were too cute not to watch.
Kaede:Stay here. I will see if the inn will let me borrow their kitchen.
Reluctantly, I got out of bed and headed downstairs. The innkeepers, an elderly couple, helply let me use their kitchen while grinning. Ignoring them, I pulled out the ingredients that Sherra got for me. Even if I was in another world, I decided to trust my mother's advice about catching a man. The best method was to cook him a homemade meal yourself.
Thanks to her being a princess, Sherra had access to ingredients from the forest I could only dream of getting. Her help gave me everything I needed to make a traditional Japanese breakfast. I served him steamed rice, miso soup, protein, pickles, and several side dishes. When I finished cooking, I brought it back to our room. Hovering in the air, Houjin was meditating.
Remembering how the others told me this happened often, I sat down to wait for him to finish. Luckily, I didn't have to wait long before he opened his eyes. Smiling, he descended to the ground, standing in front of me.
Houjin:please tell me that tasting smelling food is for me.
Kaede:Of course, it is a dummy.
Still Smiling, he sat down at the table and started to eat. His every bite seemed to be filled with pure happiness.
Kaede:How is it?
Houjin:Of course, I am in love.
Kaede:thank you.
Houjin: I was talking about you, but I like Japanese food too.
(Pov third)
After spending a lovey-dovey breakfast together, Houjin and Kaede continued their journey. Making sure to flirt with Kaede Houjin, occasionally sped through the field. Soon, they arrived at the dungeon. After thinking about it carefully, Houjin chose to go through a dungeon called the Hydras Den. It was a dungeon known for having a boss that could infinitely recover. This dungeon was not the most popular due to that very feature. Most people don't have the stamina to fight a Hydra that continuously regenerates.
Of course, Houjin wasn't worried about it because he had several methods to deal with the Hydra. Besides, he also wanted to test a theory. Arriving in town, he immediately went to the dungeon, excited for the upcoming fight. Once inside, they were attacked by a group of 5 Lizard men. Three of them were equipped to battle in the front lines with a sword and shield. The other was welding a great axe. As for the last two, they remained in the back with arrows notched.
Houjin looked over the enemies in front of him with a casual smile. Summoning his Clearsky Hammer, Houjin displayed perfect footwork to close the distance. A white mist leaked from his body, causing the air around him to tremble. Space seemed to distort as his hummer slammed into the body of one of the Lizardmen's body. Upon contact, the lizardman's body exploded into a bloody mist. A sadistic smile formed on Houjin's face as he thought about letting loose for the first time in a while. His eyes transformed into Lizard eye with a golden radiance.
At the same time beneath his clothes faint scails begain to form. The lizardmen who are normally mindless monster could feel an instinctive sense of fear. The humanoid infront of them had vanished being replaced by a ferrous dragon.
