Earth Land, Ishgar, Kingdom of Fiore, Crocus.
July 6, x791.
Not long after leaving the office, Alfonzo entered the suite where the rest of his family was staying. When he did, he found most of them, children included sitting on the couches in the room while watching something on the Lacrima-Vision screen in the room.
"Oh, you're letting the kids watch Pokémon, huh?" Alfonzo asked while glancing at the screen."
{"Pika~~~~~~~~~!"} The sound of a cute yellow electric mouse cried from the screen.
"Go! Pikachu!" Amar'e shouted happily while smiling at the images on the screen.
Only Amar'e was cheering excitedly, though. However, he was not the only one of the children enjoying the recreation of a show in Alfonzo's and Elicia's past life. Bianca was also watching with her eyes shining at the cute creatures, flashing colors, and exciting battle.
As for Calvin, he was doing his best to watch the show, too. But at only two years old, he was finding it hard to stay awake, frowning as he faded in and out of sleep while sitting in his mother's Shizuka's lap.
"Yeah." Lucy said with a smile. "It amazes me how the two of you always come up with such interesting stuff."
"I know, right." Rika added with a smile of her own. "First, you gave the idea to make creatures like this to Little Elicia with her [Arc of Embodiment Magic]. And then you ask Reedus to help turn the whole thing into an animation. That's what you called it, right?"
"Yeah." Alfonzo replied with a nod. "The original idea was to draw a whole bunch of pictures that barely changed to make it. But with Reedus' [Picto Magic], a lot of the steps were skipped."
"Designing all the Pokémon was fun, too." Elicia said with a smile. "And Reedus has a lot of good ideas, too."
Letting Reedus take some artistic liberties during the creation of this world's Pokémon was necessary. Because despite remembering quite a bit from their previous lives, there were many details that had faded over time in Alfonzo's and Elicia's minds.
"I still wonder just how the two of you come up with such ideas." Saeko said while tilting her head curiously. "Alfonzo makes all kinds of magical innovations with his magic items while Lici has introduced styles of clothing that no one would have considered. And then there are your abilities to create fictional worlds from nothing."
The other ladies in the room nodded in agreement.
"So, are you gonna sell this, too?' Ultear asked curiously.
"I guess you could say it that way." Alfonzo replied with a nod as he started walking toward the suite's bathroom. "It will be something that ends up getting added to the network all the lPhones are on. Then, people all over Ishgar will be able to watch it. And it won't be the only one."
"Yeah, Fonzie wants to make all sorts of productions for people to watch in their free time." Elicia added.
Hearing that, Ultear, Mirajane, Sun, Lucy, and Shizuka showed the most interest. However, Neither Alfonzo nor Elicia elaborated. Instead, Alfonzo only smiled as he made his way into the bathroom to wash off the sweat and smell of his activities back in the office.
About fifteen minutes later, the episode of Pokémon ended before the three children were put to bed. And when Alfonzo finished cleaning up, he decided that he would sleep with the kids, which made Amar'e and Bianca happy. Calvin, on the other hand, was already asleep. But when he woke up to see Alfonzo nearby, he would be happy, too.
That left the ladies to chat amongst themselves before they headed to bed, as well. However, just as everyone started changing into their nightwear, Cana, totally smashed from the alcohol she drank to drown her frustrations, stumbled into the room.
"Oh, you're back, Cana." Elicia said with a smile. "I actually thought you'd be back with Fonzie. You two did have some fun earlier, right?"
"Ugh! Don't get me started on Fonzie." Cana grumbled. Though, there was a hint of a smile on her face. "He actually left me hanging after making me watch him have fun with Grayfia, Ai, and Miyuki."
With the scent of gossip in the air, all the other ladies perked up immediately. Then, with their gazes, they urged the drunk wizard to continue. Though, they made sure to take what Cana said with a grain of salt.
And Cana, living up to expectations, started to regale the others with the story of how she went to see Alfonzo after her conversation with Yoruichi. However, before the story could really get started, Marin interrupted her.
"And how did that go?" Marin asked, a hint of a frown on her otherwise curious expression.
Not only Marin, but all the other ladies were more interested in hearing about that rather than Cana's supposed blue walls.
"Eh… Not much to say about that." Cana said while waving dismissively. "We talked, I told her how I felt about the shit she pulled back then. Told her that I was too old to still be throwing tantrums. And finally, told her that if Alfonzo accepts you, I won't get in the way. But I also told her that she would have to convince the rest of you of the same."
Receiving nods from everyone else, even those who were not around for the incident six years ago, Cana eventually returned to telling her story.
And because of her drunkenness, things in Cana's story were not exactly the same as they were in reality.
For one, in Cana's retelling, Alfonzo told her to come over behind the desk, asked her to suck him up, and then fucked her until he came. But he did not get her there. Then, he made her watch him fuck Grayfia, Ai, and Miyuki in that order. After that, he fucked her face and left without a word.
"Yeah, I'm calling BS." Rika said while rolling her eyes. "Even when I try not to, I cum at least twice before Alfonzo finishes even once. So, for him to cum inside of you and you didn't cum at all, total BS."
"Do you really think I'd lie about something like this?" Cana asked, an exaggerated expression of betrayal on her face.
"Yup." x 11
Elicia, Ultear, Erza, Mirajane, Marin, Sun, Lucy, Shizuka, Saeko, Rika, and Brandish all replied in unison while nodding emphatically at Cana's question.
As for Shizuka and Irene, Shizuka was just smiling along with the conversation while Irene was currently in Mavis' room, having not wanted to watch cartoons with the kids.
"You would definitely lie about something like that to get our sympathy." Erza replied in her usual no nonsense tone. "That would be predicated on you setting up a prank, though."
"Or for some expensive booze." Sun added while tilting her head cutely.
"They're right, you know." Elicia said while patting Cana on the shoulder. "You've done stuff like this before… For those exact reasons, too."
Sighing heavily, Cana's betrayed expression faded into a wide, happy smile.
"You all know me so well." Cana said, no sign of her earlier grievance on her face. "Anyway, this is what really happened…"
Cana then went on to tell everyone about how she stormed into Alfonzo's office, pulled him away from whatever he was doing, sucked him until he was hard, rode him until she came twice, and left him high and dry to have a drink. She then told them about how she cheered him on while he fucked Grayfia, Ai, and Miyuki, taking their virginities. And then she mentioned how he face-fucked her, came in her mouth, and left without a word.
"Yeah, you deserved that." Brandish said in her usual bored tone. "In fact, you deserved even worse. But I can't think of what would be worse for now."
Meanwhile, Grayfia and Ai, their legs having finally stopped shaking, were cleaning up the office after their time with Alfonzo. Meanwhile, Miyuki, who was still sleeping peacefully, lay on the couch with a sloppy, satisfied smile on her face.
*Knock!* *Knock!*
"We've come to help you clean the--- Whoa! What is that smell?" Ikaruga, after knocking on the door and opening it without a response, began to say before interrupting herself when she was all but slapped in the face by the smell of sex in the room.
Ikaruga was not alone, though, as both Maria and Mey-Rin were with her when she entered. And like Ikaruga, the other two were caught off guard by the thick smell of sex in the air.
"Hmm… Did Madam Elicia decide that master Alfonzo needed a break and bring some of the other ladies to have an orgy in the office?" Ikaruga guessed.
Immediately, Maria and Mey-Rin began to blush in response to the crass question. Though, Mey-Rin's blush was much deeper than Maria's. As for Grayfia and Ai, their expression did not change much. Well, at all in Grayfia's case. Whereas Ai's eyebrows began to twitch. But other than that, she remained impassive, as well.
"Hmm… I guess that's not it." Ikaruga replied after seeing Grayfia's and Ai's expressions. She then looked around the room, finally catching sight of the sleeping Miyuki. "Oh… Looks like Miyuki finally did it, huh? She must have had a lot of fun in here with Master Alfonzo. I mean, the smell is so thick and she's sleeping so soundly."
Hearing that, Mey-Rin stared at Miyuki, scandalized. Maria looked, as well. However, she looked with more interest than anything else. Ikaruga, on the other hand, turned her attention to Grayfia and Ai to gauge their reactions.
And what she saw brought her even closer to finding the truth of the matter. Because Ai's eyebrows were twitching even more violently now. On top of that, there was a blush on her cheeks. And to her utter surprise, Grayfia's cheeks had reddened slightly, as well.
"No way…" Ikaruga said while raising her arm to cover her mouth with her kimono sleeve. "It wasn't just Miyuki, but all three of you? I mean, I could see this happening with Ai, but you too, Grayfia?"
Misinterpreting Grayfia's blush for embarrassment, Ikaruga drew attention to the silver-haired maid. But unbeknownst to her, Grayfia's blush came from the memory of the feeling of having sex with Alfonzo, not the embarrassment of being found out.
"Yes, even me." Grayfia said calmly as she wiped down the desk. "The three of us were needed to help relieve the Master after Madam Cana interrupted his work."
Grayfia, without much inflection, then went on to tell everyone what happened not too long ago in the office. And while Ikaruga was grinning a positively cheshire grin at the story, Mey-Rin was covering her face with her hands in embarrassment while Maria, though also blushing, was listening with keen interest.
As for Ai, her face was redder than it was prior to Grayfia telling the story. But she also smiled smugly while looking at her other co-workers.
"Damn… I kinda wish I had been here for that." Ikaruga said after Grayfia's story ended. "You know, I offered myself to Master Alfonzo back when Madam Elicia was pregnant with Young Master Amar'e. But he turned me down."
"Yes, we've all heard the story." Maria said while rolling her eyes. "More times than any of us could count. Especially after you've been attending to Madam Cana while she's on one of her benders."
"It's probably because you never had any feelings for him." Ai said calmly after her smug smile was wiped away. "But the three of us, Grayfia, Miyuki, and I, have all expressed feelings for the master. And that is more than likely why he accepted us."
"The fact that Ai and I helped clean him up after his first time with Miss Brandish most likely led to him not being so opposed to it, as well." Grayfia added. "And from what I know, Miyuki had advanced her relationship with the master even before we left for Crocus."
"Seriously?" Ikaruga asked with her eyes shining. "Do you know what happened exactly?"
"I do." Maria replied quietly. "It happened during one of those times she was creepily watching Master Alfonzo sleep. Apparently, she finally plucked up the courage to kiss him. Then, not long after that, kissing turned into… um… fellatio."
"Wha! Wha! Wha!" Mey-Rin, after hearing the word, "fellatio," cried loudly while practically spewing steam from her ears.
Ikaruga and Ai also widened their eyes in surprise. Then, they turned to look in Miyuki's direction with surprise and the desire to know more in their expressions.
As for Grayfia, she lowered her head in thought. Then, in a moment of epiphany, she raised her head.
"I see." Grayfia replied. "That would explain why she seemed to be so much more comfortable putting Master Alfonzo's member in her mouth than Ai and I did."
"Grayfia!" Ai protested sharply.
Like that, four of the five conscious maids continued to gossip while Miyuki slept peacefully, and Mey-Rin did her best to listen to the conversation without passing out from embarrassment. Because despite how shy and clumsy she was, she was at that age where she was interested in sex and romance, as well.
