Once again, the door before Skylar opened, and there stood two stunning women who seems to be in their early thirties.
"Lord, come in."
One of this two women, a pregnant bouncy beauty in a plain, light blue abaya and a navy blue hijab cheerfully welcomed Skylar inside. And Skylar who seems to be mesmerized by the vibe of the other docile woman who seems shy and nervous with a lowered head, and was also the one who opened the door for him at first but reflexively slam the door in his face, stepped inside as the two gave way for him.
"Japanese and malaysian?"
Skylar judged the two based on their facial features.
As he turn around to face them once again after the door closed, the docile woman dressed in a biege heel-length accordion skirt and a white loose-fitting chiffon top, nervously replied with a lowered head and blushing cheeks before the other woman could reply.
"She is Indonesian... Lord."
Her voice was tiny and girl-like, just like her stunning face. And the other woman, the pregnant one who appears bright and cheerful added in a lively and somewhat loud voice.
"Lord, i am from Bali. What about you?... Where are you from?"
She closed in fast on Skylar like a squirrel, despite her big pregnant belly. She grabbed his arm excitedly with a bright smile on her face and continued her barrage of questions.
"Lord... Are you this handsome in the real world?Tell me? Are you married?.. We are currently single. Will you marry us two? We can cook, clean, sing and dance. We can even satisfy a limp looser in bed. We know all the best positions there is. We may not look like it, but we have..."
"Blue."
The other docile woman in a subdued voice and with a tug at the pregnant woman's abaya nervously interrupted her chirping.
They are both acting like girls.
Skylar felt flummoxed by their actions. He felt the docile woman he concluded her name should be Hana acts like too shy and nervous for someone of her age, and the cheerful and lively one, he concludes is Blue princess, acts a little too excited and a little too clingy for an adult woman and a pregnant one to boot.
"You are Hana right?"
Skylar looked at the docile woman, and her big dark brown eyes the color of her long black silky hairs shook and almost rolled over the moment she made eye contact with him.
"Lord... She is Hana. I am Blue princess. We two are roommates and close buddies..."
Her friend, Blue princess, bailed her out. And returning from her state of extreme nervousness and anxiety, she watch Blue princess who is still chirping, seemingly drag Skylar towards a sofa in the distance with an envious eye. Then a sigh escaping her, she put away her messy thoughts and followed behind them.
"Lord, have you eaten today? Is there anything you want to eat? How about bread? We also have meats. Do you like the meats we sent you yesterday? It was delicious right? Both of us cooked it with a lot of love...."
Blue princess clapsed Skylar's left hand as she chirped off excitedly. And Skylar who seems not to be bothered by her watched as Hana with nervousness written on her face took a seat a bit far away from him on the sofa they are seated on.
"Hmm..." What this...
While his left hand is being clasped by blue princess who is still chirping, Skylar picked up a crystal glass object the shape and size of a mobile phone that laid on the couch at his right side with his right hand.
"Lord... Do you play games? Let's play games..."
Seeing as Skylar pick the object and start looking at it, Blue princess excitedly unclasped his hand, and before she could stand up, Skylar stretched his hand she unclasped and an object identical to the one in his right hand that lays on a foot stool a bit far away in the distance flew into his hand.
"Whoa!!! That was so cool..." Blue princess exclaimed. "Is that telekinesis? Can you teach me? Will i also become a lord like you if i learn it?"
"Its not telekinesis." Like shutting her up, Skylar spoke as he hand her the object that flew into his hand. Explaining, he continued. "I simply moved it by manipulating the natural energy around it. Well it doesn't matter, let's play games. Its been a while."
"Lord, why don't you want to tell me? I can definitely learn it easily if you teach me... I am a great learner. It took me...."
"Let's forget that already." Skylar poked her on her chubby cheek, shutting her up. He added. "You probably have zero affinity for natural energy. Let's face one thing first. With me around, you don't have to worry ever again in this world. Well, that's as long as you remain under my umbrella. I respect people's choice always."
He chuckled at the end of his statement, and Hana that listened on at the side uncharacteristically laughed out loud with her hand covering her mouth. Then with an unshakable confidence in her voice and dark brown eyes that is locked onto Skylar's as he watch her fascinatedly, she parted her pink-glossed full lips.
"Lord i believe you."
"I believe you too lord."
Blue princess who seemed to have calmed down a lot also added soberly.
They shouldn't believe though. I simply stated fact. Well..
"Blue, let's play."
As he said this, suddenly his right ear twitched, his eyes narrowed slightly, and with a quiet voice he added, "ladies... A baby is crying."
"Hana! Your baby!"
Blue shouted urgently and at the same time Hana stood up and made her way to a place behind the two and the sofa.
So she has a baby.
Skylar thought as his sixth sense perceived Hana enter head for a room behind them. Then as he return his focus, he saw a small floating spherical object project a screen made of light like an hologram, a screen with a size of about ten meter by ten meter, at a reasonable distance in front of them.
"On, this, here...."
Then the device as instructed by Blue princess who is tapping on the object skylar handed her earlier and which happened to be a controller with a similar one in his hand, displayed 3D images and characters in unreal quality like an electronic screen would.
"Lord, what is your type. Shooting, fantasy, car racing, arcade, sports..."
"Sports!" Skylar interrupted her like he doesn't want her to launch into another series of chirping. "Let's try something of your choice." He added.
"Football. I like football.... and lord, i must let you know i was part of my country's women national team that represented us in the last edition of women EF world championship, we reached the quarterfinals..."
Unfortunately for Skylar, he failed. The loquacious Blue princess like a parrot that was just fed never stopped talking as both of them set up their game play and not until Hana returned with a baby cradled in her arms.
"Lord... Here."
Gaining Skylar's attention, Hana gently pushed a floating wooden box tray that contains food and refreshment towards him. Then she settled in a spot very much closer to him this time, gently placing her lively baby on her laps with a smile on her face as she look at her baby giggling face.
"Hana, thank you."
Skylar manipulate the natural energy around the floating tray, making it float towards and lands on a wooden stool in front of him. Then he return his focus to the screen, tapping on the controller he is holding.
"Lord... Should i give you a handicap?"
Blue princess said as she also taps on the controller. And Skylar in response rolled his eyes at her.
"I may beat you if you are not careful." Skylar smiled as he cast her a glance from the corner of his eyes. "Annoying musori." He added.
"Lord, i am not a musori, i am a professional gamer. One of the best in the world"
Protesting, Blue princess tap on the controller she is holding and the football game in front of them kicked off with commentary originating from a wooden box at one side of the room made of chameleon glass walls as expected, but wooden floor unlike most upper floor rooms in the executive building.
Also, when the football game kicked off— The bright light in the room dimmed, the natural light coming from the transparent chameleon glass wall at Skylar's right and therefore Hana's right dimmed gently too as it automatically lowers its transparency. Then like receiving a signal, two of few box shaped lamps, floating just below the chameleon glass ceiling of the room descended and stopped about a meter above the head of the two each, shinning on them like spotlights as they play.
"Seriously, a goal under a minute. I am in trouble."
Skylar mused, while Blue princess keeps an unusual expressionless look on her. Then five seconds later, she tapped on her screen with style, finessing a shot Skylar's keeper couldn't react to.
"What!" Skylar exclaimed, shifting on the sofa. "Two zero under two minutes. I am in serious trouble."
"Lord do you still not want a handicap?"
"No... Its not yet over. I can still win."
Skylar with worry etched on his brow, replied Blue's emotionless voice curtly. Then on the screen the ball went out of play, and getting a little break, he looked to the side at Hana who is breastfeeding her baby quietly.
Hmm... Her breast and that nipple.
His eyes narrowed as he scans Hana bulbous, elongated and engorged left boob that has colorful tattoos all over it and an obscenely big nipple her baby is sucking from.
Something is strange...
He returns his focus to the game with thoughts about how the tattoo on her was made permanent since she must have log out of the simulation at least once after she had the tattoos, an action that always refresh the vessel's appearance when one logs back in, therefore automatically removing the tattoos, so he thought.
— Its a brand.
"Fuck!" Skylar's sudden reaction to the unexpected and familiar voice in his mind coincided with the moment Blue princess scored her sixth goal.
"Lord... Its the tenth miniute."
She reminds him expressionessly as he regains his composure.
This woman is planning to destroy me.
Skylar thought with a knitted brow, then he yelled somewhat angrily in his mind.
Hey you!... I thought you were a dreambot. Why didn't you respond when i called you?
— Why should i? I am not beholden to you.
The cold and aloof voice of the being he earlier saw in his dream replied him sharply. She continued.
— Are you mad because a woman is thrashing you or because of something else.
Probably both. Eres here me out, wait!...
How did i even know your name?
— Does it matter... You want to ask about that miserable woman breastfeeding beside you?
Yes, why is her boob still like that? Shouldn't that modification have disappeared when she logged out? You said its branding, what's that?
— Branding is branding.
.... I know. Is it not when you put a mark on something. How is this one different.
— Are you an idiot. What about the contractual symbol on your left chest?
Wait, how are they similar. Is that not just a common tatto. Or are you saying the mark of a contract between me and Goldie is of the same level.
— Not really, but i can tell you her previous master must have used a special method tied to the spirit to brand her... If you look at that red symbol on top of her breast, it means total compliance in gulu tongue...
Gulu tongue? What's that?
— It's a creation of a certain lascivious dragon in the fourth era... just inscribing it on someone without an ink will cost a lot to remove it. Slavers also used it a lot in the fourth era, and i think her previous master must have stumbled upon the legacy of one of this slave traders, a very wealthy one that even left a premium ink behind.
So you are saying, this one on her boob was drawn with that premium ink.
— More or less... the person that drew it diluted it with a solution of his own.
Oh! its top quality.
— Yes... and to still be able to maintains its quantity to quality ratio to some degree, the person is a genius and will certainly become a big character, possibly a continental slaver.
I see, the guy is super dangerous.
