23.38% Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos / Chapter 548: Mischievious

Bab 548: Mischievious

Though it was rather early, Vahn wasn't going to push Shizune too hard given that she really had done her best in the earlier fight. Mental fatigue was one of the biggest factors when you were first starting out and there were very few people that would push themselves beyond that point just to get a little stronger. Besides, there wasn't a great difference between 19 and 28 Goblins as far as general exilia gained was concerned. Depending on the mentality of the person, that is what decided how their parameters developed and, if Shizune felt like this was her current limit, that was good enough for real growth to take place.

After helping her body calm down from the effects of her battle, Vahn bent down and allowed Shizune to climb onto his back. She happily did so and Vahn once again realized how small she was as her almost negligible weight pressed against his back. He was a bit worried that her butt would peek out while he was carrying her, since she wore a very short kimono with spats, so Vahn materialized a cloak and had Chloe put it over her. Shizune laughed at Vahn's concern and teasingly asked, "Do you not want other boys to stare at my bottom, Vahn~?"

Vahn released a small sigh and said, "You can say it that way if you'd like, but I might make you walk back if you continue to misbehave." Shizune gave a bit of an awkward laugh and said, "Aya, I'll behave, I'll behave~." as she rested her head on his shoulder. Chloe watched this from the side and held her finger to her chin before saying, "Make sure to hold on properly, and don't actually go to sleep Shizune. We never know when an enemy might attack, so keep your guard up until we reach the Manor properly~nya!" Shizune opened her amethyst-like eyes and looked at Chloe, seeing the seriousness contained behind her relatively playful words. At the same time, she tightened her relatively weak grip around Vahn's neck and focused her mind...

Even if their enemy didn't attack today, it was a fact that both Chloe and Vahn had sensed a hostile presence on their way to the Dungeon. Though many people gave them strange looks, some containing anger, envy, resentment, and a variety of other negative emotions, there was a big difference between the people that 'thought' about hurting them and the people that 'wanted' to hurt them. Chloe's instincts had been honed since she was a child while Vahn's were like an instinctual trigger from The Path itself that allowed him to sense danger. He had even been able to detect the Juggernaut in the past, during a time when his domain wasn't that large and his perception was rather weak. The fact that they both had sensed something was a testament to the hostility that was directed toward them by their yet unseen pursuer.

As they hadn't progressed that far into the Floor, the trio reached the surface in less than ten minutes using Vahn's map as a guide. They could have gotten back even faster, but Vahn wasn't in a particular hurry and was sending out indiscernible pulses of energy to try and detect any invisible enemies that may be present. He didn't know if the person following them had been the earth mage, but there were few people that could avoid his detection and it was typically only through the use of powerful obscuring artifacts. The only exception to this had been Ouranos himself, but Vahn felt like this was just a difference in the level of their existence or some other secret that Ouranos had.

Without any major incidents, Vahn carried Shizune all the way back to the Manor with Chloe walking cheerfully at his side, almost as if she didn't have her guard up at all. However, other than a random Adventurer nearly bumping into them after exiting an alleyway at a fast speed, there weren't any actual threats, or even hostility, detected on the way back. Chloe had sent the rather unfortunate woman careening through the streets after quickly diverting her course, but that was the end of the matter...

Once they were inside, Hestia was waiting for them with a big smile on her face as she said, "Welcome home, Vahn, Chloe, Shizune~!" in a happy tone. Vahn set down Shizune before walking over and giving Hestia a momentary embrace and a quick kiss before asking, "Anything happen while we were away?" Hestia had a 'loose' expression and a happy smile on her face before she resumed her normal appearance and said, "Nnn, there hasn't really been anything? You weren't really gone that long, after all." Though it wasn't really directed at her, Shizune's ears drooped a bit and she said, "I'm gonna go find Tina and maybe take a nap..." as she tried to run off with a pitter-patter of footsteps.

Vahn quickly reached out and snagged the collar of her kimono and picked her up, as the tension was around the obi wrapped around her body and wouldn't cause her any real discomfort. Shizune had a startled expression with a mixture of confusion until Vahn explained, "I need to update your Status Board before you run off. You should also take a bath unless you plan to go play and exercise when your parameters increase." Realizing she had forgotten about that rather 'important' aspect, Shizune showed an uncharacteristically bashful smile and said, "Sorry, I forgot..." The truth of the matter was, Shizune actually had to use the bathroom quite badly but she was too embarrassed to bring it up right now.

After moving to the study, Shizune loosened her obi and lowered the back of her kimono, displaying her relatively small back for Vahn to trace a line of blood down. The blood vanished like evaporating liquid as the Hestia Familia crest appeared with a subtle magical light emerging from the hieroglyphics contained within. Hestia herself watched with interest, as she was always amazed to see how Vahn was able to do something that was previously unique to the gods. There were no real differences from her own method, so Hestia was a little confused about how Vahn could discern information her eyes were unable to see...

Vahn filled out Shizune's parameters on a piece of paper before handing it over to her and documenting her growth within a magenta colored notebook. Shizune had a small smile on her face after seeing how much she had grown, but quickly gave the paper to Hestia and ran off wearing nothing but a loose kimono and spats. Vahn was a little confused by her actions until Chloe said, "I think she needed to go to the bathroom; no peeking, Vahn~nya!" Because he was wondering what she was up to, Vahn's eyes had turned blue, a sign the girls had recognized to mean he was seeing much more than they would like at times.

A small amount of heat reached Vahn's cheeks and he showed an apologetic expression, saying, "I think I'll go work in my workshop for a bit. It's still pretty early and I don't want to start salon treatments before the others start returning." Right now, the only people within the Manor were Vahn himself, Hestia, Tsubaki, Chloe, Shizune, Milan, Tina, Aki, Syr, Arnya, and Preasia. Terra was also present, but she was most likely in the garden and well outside of Vahn's current detection radius. As for Hephaestus, she seemed to be at her own workshop dealing with her clients and would likely be back before noon.

Hestia seemed to have intended to take a bath and relax with Vahn for a bit, but she showed a smile and said, "Okay, I'll let you know if anything happens~!" before giving him a kiss on the cheek and heading back to her own room. She had been able to spend the night with him and also got to receive his massage previously. Though it never really felt like 'enough', Hestia didn't want to pressure Vahn as she did in the past. Ever since Hephaestus started living in the Manor, she had calmed down a lot because it was easier when there were friends she could vent to. Even Syr was a good listener and Hestia had even had something akin to a slumber party with them both in the past.

Chloe didn't seem intent to let Vahn get away so easily, however, as she tilted her head to the side when Hestia left and asked, "Do you mind if I come with you~nya? I've never really been inside your workshop and it could be interesting~?" Though she had a very composed look, Vahn could see the pink and subtle red contained in Chloe's aura. He couldn't quite understand what had 'activated' her, but Chloe's body seemed to be heating up a bit and she was clearly seeking his attention. Thinking it had been a while since he spent time alone with her, Vahn smiled and said, "Sure, I'll show you around a bit and maybe you can help me...?"

---

Though they had originally made their way towards his workshop, Vahn and Chloe had been passing through the corridors of the East Wing when she leaned against him and teasingly said, "Nyahaha, we're in the East Wing, does that mean we can play~?" Vahn felt like his heart was being scratched by a cat as he asked in a quiet voice, "I don't mind, Chloe, but are you okay? What's making you act like this so suddenly?" Seemingly, Chloe found Vahn's words very interesting and showed a thoughtful smile on her face before saying, "Well~, we're rarely alone like this, and I've been a little tense since I saw you give ribbons to Milan and Tina. There is also the bloodlust we felt earlier, and I was feeling anxious watching Shizune fight~nyahaha."

Because she had been in a combat-ready state and hadn't been able to cut loose, Chloe was feeling a little bored while the tensions of her body had been steadily increasing. Though she hadn't minded it too much at first, the moment she realized there was an opportunity to have Vahn to herself, Chloe felt like she needed to seize it. Even before she brought it up, her body had already started 'preparing' and she couldn't deny she was feeling very excited.

It was a bit strange, even from her own perspective, because she didn't remember being such a 'needy' girl in the past. In fact, she cared more about Vahn's mental health than simply being with him at first...it was interesting seeing how hearts and minds could change. Though, if she had to give a real reason after thinking about it seriously, Chloe couldn't deny that the information she received from the Divination was probably the biggest reason for her change in behavior. She didn't want to be the girl that caused Vahn to go down a lonely road and she had been thinking about all kinds of things she wanted to do before she actually died, matters she hadn't considered much in the past...

Vahn could tell that Chloe wasn't being entirely truthful with him, but he didn't really care since her desire to be with him was more than enough reason for him to take action. He could tell that her reaction was 'normal', meaning she wasn't under the influence of an external source, so Vahn pulled her close to him and embraced her tightly, saying, "Your body seems very hot...let me help you cool down a bit, Chloe." As if to emphasize his words, Chloe released a hot breath against his neck before casually licking the spot with her dry tongue. Vahn had grown fond of the sensation as of late, but he didn't want to stand out in the corridor and 'stall' so he picked up Chloe in a princess carry and moved into one of the nearby rooms where they could enjoy some privacy.

Once they reached the relatively empty room, Vahn pulled a bed from his inventory and plopped it down in the center of the room before laying Chloe against it. She was still wearing her Adventurer's attire, but that actually just made things a little more exciting. Vahn was actually very interested in different types of clothes and outfits, something he had 'discovered' when he had gone shopping with the girls, so seeing her in 'combat' attire made his tensions increase a bit. Chloe realized this as well and decided to entice Vahn a bit as she rolled over to her hands and feet, looked over her shoulder with a playful smile, and asked, "What do you think of my outfit, Vahn~nya? Does it suit me?"

Because she had to dress distinctly different than her 'Black Cat' alias, Chloe wore a dark-blue sleeveless tunic that 'proudly' displayed her navel and a relatively thin breastplate that only covered the front and back side of her heart. Instead of the small white shorts, she used to wear, she now wore a somewhat loose pair of light-grey shorts with visible spats underneath them. She had also traded in her two small brown pouches on the sides of her legs for two tan-colored ones that rested on her backside, similar to Aki. She had on matching tan gloves and boots with a pair of stockings that were the same color of blue as her tunic. Overall, she didn't change her style that much, but the color palette had undergone a swap and she looked more lively than previously.

With her butt pointed toward him, Vahn could see the blue ribbon firmly tied around Chloe's tail as well as the small gap between her thighs where her secret garden was protected by two relatively thin layers of fabric. He habitually swallowed a bit of saliva as he walked forward and stroked her butt, to which she responded by rolling onto her side and laughing mischievously. Vahn could feel his heart itch a little more at her antics but he was effectively triggered when she relaxed her body in a lazy pose and said, "I believe you owe me a massage~." A smile appeared on Vahn's face and he nodded his head, saying, "Yes, and much more..." as he reached out and rubbed her belly, causing her to laugh as she rolled away a second time.

Chloe skillfully kicked off her boots and unbuttoned her tunic, showing off her relatively modest breasts that had a skin-colored 'tape' protecting her dignity. She then began peeling away her gloves as Vahn crawled into the bed after her, prompting her to 'discard' the freed articles toward him as if she was fending off an attacker. Vahn reached out very quickly with his hands and grabbed the pouches on her backside before the belt around her waist loosened and, in a single swift motion, Chloe freed herself from the shorts. She also tossed her tunic back into Vahn's face, leaving her wearing nothing but an extremely thin pair of spats and dark blue stockings. With her raven black hair and green eyes, she looked especially tantalizing to Vahn and he wanted to pamper this mischievously little kitten until she mewled loudly in satisfaction...

Leaving the 'last line of defense' on her body, Chloe laid down against the bed and supported her upper body with one of the pillows as she kicked her feet playfully and waited for Vahn. Knowing what she had in mind, Vahn discarded the majority of his clothes as well before moving over and grabbing Chloe's playful feet and laying them against the bed. She looked back at him with mock confusion on her face and asked, "Nyaa? What are you planning~?" as Vahn straddled the back of her thighs. Rubbing his hands together, Vahn showed a smile and said, "Though I want to help your body cool down, I figured it would be better to fight fire with fire so you'll be more satisfied later on. We'll start with a massage and, when you're nice and warmed up, I'll pamper you as much as you want~."

Chloe laughed cheerfully as the temperature of her body steadily increased to the point that small drops of sweat began to emerge from her pores. Vahn leaned over her and placed his hands at her sides before slowly tracing them up her body with a bit of pressure. Chloe took in a deep breath and released a sigh at the sudden wave of energy and the 'heavy petting' method of Vahn. Because he had enough Power to move around much heavier objects than the relatively light and lithe Chloe, Vahn was able to lift up her torso with his movements. Chloe arched her back to match his actions until Vahn's hands came to a stop around her relatively modest breasts and he gave her sensitive little protrusions a light pinch as a thread of energy tickled the underlying nerves.

Though it was only the prelude, Chloe released a stifled 'nyaaa~' that tickled Vahn's ears as he let her body come to rest against the bed once again. Next, he 'molded' her shoulders and neck with his thumbs and helped ease any tension she felt in her muscles with a deep tissue massage to loosen up her body. He then traced his thumbs along the lines of her scapula and pressed into the pressure points around her trapezius muscles and the rhomboid muscles beneath them. Slowly working his way down, Vahn pressed into several points around her spine before drawing his index finger slowly down the line of her back, all the way until he reached her tail.

As if she understood what Vahn was thinking, Chloe turned her head to the side and gave him a deeply affectionate look just as Vahn began to fiddle around with her tail. Her body tensed up as a natural response to the action and she tried to curl up her legs while pressing her face into the pillow beneath her. With Vahn sitting on her thighs, she couldn't move too easily but Chloe was strong enough to lift him completely when Vahn gripped her tail a bit firmly. He had somewhat expected this to happen, as his own weight really wasn't that much compared to Chloe's significant strength, so Vahn ended up behind Chloe as she raised her butt up and pressed her head to the bed.

Other than various seated positions, the next favorite position of many of the Cat Girls was being taken from behind. It was also a fact that Vahn found the pert little butt of Chloe being hugged by the black spats especially tantalizing. With his left hand gently holding Chloe's tail, Vahn used his right hand to stroke her butt as he traced his thumb along the somewhat hot and steamy mound near his waist. Other than the spats, Chloe wasn't wearing any actual underwear so Vahn could see a perfect outline of her vagina after it had become damp with her own love juices. As he was only wearing a pair of thin underwear himself, Vahn pressed his hips to the hot opening and caused Chloe's body to tremble slightly.

After taking several deep breaths to 'compose' herself, Chloe looked back and had an incredibly seductive look on her face as she said, "Vahn, I want it, nyaaaa~" Vahn felt like Chloe was being far more forward than normal and activated his [Eyes of Truth] out of concern as he slowly probed against her backside while massaging her pert little rump. Chloe gripped the bedspread tightly and wiggled her butt against him at the same time but, no matter how much Vahn looked around, he couldn't see any abnormalities in her body at all. He suspected it could be an aspect of her Innate, [Cheshire], but he had no way of knowing at all since even Chloe had no idea what it did.

Deciding there were more important matters to worry about right now, Vahn unequipped his own underpants before grabbing the extremely thin fabric protecting Chloe's garden. Without much hesitation, Vahn pulled the fabric apart with his hands and, as a result of the very stretchy nature of the fabric, it 'snapped' and created a large hole in the previously skin-tight garment. Chloe's body tensed up in expectation as Vahn placed his 'scalding' hot glans against her steaming hot vagina and began rubbing it to stimulate her vulva while lubricating his penis. She had long adapted to his size, but it didn't mean it wouldn't cause her any discomfort if he suddenly forced himself inside of her. However, with the massive volume of fluid being produced by her steamy insides, Vahn was ready almost immediately and deftly found the correct angle before his long session of spoiling Chloe began...

Bab 549: Lull

After more than an hour-and-a-half, Vahn ended up in a small tub with Chloe as she lazily moved around under his guidance and affectionately pressed herself against his body. He was currently trying to wash her body but, even after she had 'calmed down' a bit, Chloe seemed to be in a very affectionate mood today. This often happened after he had sex with a Cat Person, as they would often cuddle up with and lick him after the fact, but it seemed like Chloe was especially 'active' today. Though it was brief, he even managed to get her to purr a bit when he was stroking her belly earlier, something that was difficult to trigger because they had to be in a very absentminded and relaxed state.

Towards the end, Vahn had discovered why Chloe was acting so uncharacteristically and it made him feel very fond of the lovable and mischevious 'kitten'. Because spring was approaching, causing the days to become longer and warmer, Chloe's body was in a 'standby' state that could trigger her to enter 'heat' at a moments notice. There were several factors involved, but it was the presence of other Cat People around her and the tensions she had been feeling in her body throughout the day. Though it had been an unintentional trigger, as far as he could tell, it was the woman nearly bumping into them that eventually set Chloe off.

This let Vahn know many things about Chloe's health and it showed that she was feeling a bit of anxiety as of late, to which there could be several causes. Knowing that she had died around this point in the Divination could be the main reason, but environmental factors and her interpersonal relationships with other people were likely the main cause. Chloe wasn't the type that formed many bonds with people in the past and, though she was very receptive to people with deeply rooted trauma, this was one of the first times in her life where she proactively endeavored to get along with others. His presence was likely the biggest factor, however, as she was most likely very worried about him and his antics while, though she may not appear that way on the surface, Chloe was feeling a bit of jealousy toward other girls.

Thinking this was a good opportunity to discuss the matter, as he had a lot of trust for Chloe and she would likely keep the matter under wraps for a little while, Vahn asked, "Chloe, if I could create memory fragments like Eva, do you think I can help make everyone happy? Or do you think it would be better to create a magical tool that allows me to compress time so we can be together more?" Chloe traced her fairly long and dry tongue from the center of Vahn's chest all the way up to his neck, causing the light condensation building up on his skin to vanish as her tongue 'lapped' it up. She had an amorous smile on her face, but the intelligent light in her eyes showed she was considering her answer seriously.

After a brief moment of silence, Chloe tilted her head and said, "I think you should probably talk to the goddesses and Syr about it, Vahn~nya. From what I can deduce, both ideas seem like a double-edged sword and I'm worried about the stresses you would face~nyafuu." Chloe started licking around his jaw and behind his ear after she completed her words, allowing Vahn the time he needed to think about things properly. She could tell that Vahn had probably been thinking about how 'unfairly' allocated his time was because there were simply too many girls. They all worked together and made concessions with each other, but there wasn't much any of them could do about their desire to be with Vahn at times. Because he could see their emotional states, Vahn was very receptive to their needs and this made him feel pressured when it was obvious they were 'starving' for his affection...

Vahn knew he would need to bring up the matter eventually, but he had wanted to keep it to himself until Eva's orb awakened. The girls likely knew he was feeling a bit pressured by their expectations, as he wasn't that great at keeping things from him, but vocalizing it was another matter entirely. If he brought up his 'concerns' now, Vahn feared the girls might try to give him a little more space and he would feel very guilty. After all, there were times when Vahn wished he could just spend all his time pampering and playing around with the girls instead of focusing on his other worries. They already made so many compromises for him that Vahn felt ashamed that he couldn't make them happy and work on the things he needed to worry about at the same time.

After releasing a large sigh, which causes Chloe's ears to flicker adorably, Vahn playfully thumbed around her tail and said, "I think I know what I need to do, but I'll talk to Hephaestus, Eina, Loki, and Hestia about it later. There is still a lot of time to consider the matter before I can even worry about it, so there isn't any reason to stress about it right now...haaaa." Chloe lazily nodded her head and started considering what she could do to ease Vahn's body and mind. His biggest 'problem' was that he put in a lot of effort to satisfy the girls but there were simply too many. He was seemingly considering 'splitting' himself a bit, which could be a fairly decent solution, but that could be dangerous for various reasons. If he was linked with the 'memory fragments', Vahn would feel an even greater amount of mental strain at times while, if he wasn't linked with them, some of the girls may become more attached to the 'version' of Vahn they had than the real thing...

The 'best' compromise would be if Vahn could set limitations on his copies and make them only perform specific tasks such as massages, 'petting', or simply talking, without allowing the copy, or the girls themselves, to escalate things in the relative privacy of the orb. This would allow them to release some of their own pent up desires without overstressing Vahn throughout the day, freeing up his schedule and only 'tending' to them during the evenings. However, this only worked if Vahn was 'linked' with the fragments as well since his interactions with the girls in the orb would be very 'important' for their bonds to grow stronger. If he wasn't linked with them, Chloe could imagine several girls that might take advantage of Vahn's nature to incite his copies to do 'foolish' things...

After their bath came to an end, Vahn and Chloe had a light lunch before she decided to head off and track down Shizune. Though it hadn't been to the extent of Tina, Shizune had experienced a great deal of growth for a young girl and needed to move her body and adapt to the change so that she didn't make any mistakes in the future. Her fighting style was rather indirect, so it was unlikely there would be any problems, but it was still better to have an understanding of your capabilities to avoid mishaps. As for Vahn, he decided to strike while the iron was hot and checked his Status Logbook to see what Hephaestus, Eina, Loki, Hestia, and Anubis were up to. It showed that Eina was 'busy' as a result of her work, but all the goddesses were currently 'free'.

At this point, Hephaestus was even in the Manor itself so Vahn went to check her workshop only to find that it was empty. Other than the Eternal Flame dancing about happily, almost like it was greeting him, Vahn didn't see any signs of her at all. Before he left, Vahn decided to 'pamper' one of the most important parts of Hephaestus so he cut open his palm and allowed some of his blood to fall into the exuberant flame as it happily lapped up the blood in an effort to absorb trace amounts of his source energy. Vahn was curious to see if the Eternal Flame would evolve even further in the future because he found the vermillion-golden flames to be rather beautiful and dazzling...just like Hephaestus herself.

Vahn figured that Hephaestus was either with Hestia, Syr, or talking with Terra, so he returned to the central area and detected two large presences on the third floor, confirming his earlier suspicion. Making his way up the stairs, Vahn opened the door without knocking because he could 'feel' that both girls knew he was coming to them. His bond with Hestia was simply ridiculous and just thinking he was almost near the Manor was what allowed her to intercept them at the foyer every day. Hephaestus's had been the highest before Hestia's 'overwhelming' love, so her bond was also quite powerful. When he was in close proximity to the goddesses, Vahn could sense their thoughts and emotions in a slightly abstract manner that made him feel very close to them.

Hephaestus and Hestia had been sitting on the latter's bed and Vahn was surprised to find the prolific forging goddess was wearing nothing but a loose white blouse and a pair or ruby-red panties. Hephaestus' face blushed slightly and she explained, "I had stayed up all night working on a new design and was going to take a nap with Hestia. You showed up just as we were about to lay down..." Hestia also had a somewhat bashful expression, but only after seeing how Hephaestus was reacting. She had originally thought nothing of it but now realized their situation could easily be misunderstood by people if they didn't understand the context.

Vahn released a light chuckle and unabashedly climbed into the bed with the two blushing beauties and said, "I wanted to talk with the two of you while also getting the opinions of Loki, Anubis, Eina, and Syr. However, I wouldn't mind taking a nap myself if you don't mind me joining~?" Hephaestus laughed while Hestia practically yanked him over and pulled him to the head of the bed. There was no way she would allow Vahn to escape after his words and the idea of simply lazing around with him made her heart burst with happiness. Hephaestus also worked in conjunction with her, so Vahn very quickly found himself 'enveloped' between the two buxom goddesses as a feeling of extreme comfort settled into his mind.

As they prepared to doze off together, Vahn absentmindedly explained what he was concerned about and they both said they would bring it up on the network and discuss it later. Until Vahn had a better understanding of such things, there wasn't any real sense in planning around such things. However, talking about methods to help the girls feel more 'involved' with Vahn was something that they could easily discuss. Just like his little stint with jumping off Fafnir in the past, there were plenty of group activities that didn't involve things like sex or having Vahn pamper them directly. Everyone liked to experience new things, especially if they were very exciting, so there were plenty of alternatives that didn't require Vahn to do anything 'excessive'...

---

After a nice three-hour nap, Vahn woke up feeling strangely refreshed, something he often felt when he slept with Hestia. Just like earlier, when he felt that incredible sense of comfort, Hestia had a natural aura that made him feel almost like he was in a daze. Though his memories were a bit blurry, which was rare considering he had a near-perfect memory, Vahn could still recall the times when he relaxed against her thighs and she gently caressed his head. It was likely a property of her Divinity, but Hestia could help him relax to an extent that even Eina couldn't, though it was a bit of an unfair comparison considering that Hestia was a first generation goddess while Eina was just a mortal girl.

Eina was also very 'consistent' compared to someone like Hestia, who could have huge shifts in her mood depending on the situation and was sometimes very 'intense'. Vahn spent more time pampering her than the other way around, so Eina was still the girl he was most comfortable with since she was not only his wife, but someone that proactively endeavored to care for his physical and mental wellness. Since she was clearly working the afternoon shift, Vahn decided to ask her if she would spend the evening with him so that he could receive a bit of her pampering...

As he had promised previously, Vahn ended up opening up his 'salon' after awakening from his nap and spent a relatively uneventful afternoon polishing his massage techniques and gaining a bit of OP with his [Petting] Development Ability. Shizune had shown up, as was to be expected, but she behaved herself since Milan and Tina were both present to observe. She wore the thin, open-back, top that only covered the front side of her diminutive chest and a pair of small black spats that clearly showed that Milan had 'forced' her to wear panties underneath. Throughout the entire process, Tina had a ruddy flush to her face but she had calmed down a lot since this morning and no longer looked anxious and upset with him.

Once he finished his relatively tame massage with Shizune, Vahn moved on to Milan who, under the watchful gaze of her daughters, fought to stifle her relatively silent mewls. Vahn went easy on her, as he didn't want her to lose face in front of her daughters, but neither really seemed to mind that much considering they knew of Milan's 'habits' from the past. Shizune was very calm throughout the entire process and even watched from up close, clearly interested in the massage technique itself, while Tina just periodically sent glances at Vahn when she thought he wasn't paying attention. Her tail flicked about in a somewhat rigid state that was a bit of a 'danger' flag if she was a bit older, but Vahn played along and pretended to not notice.

After sending off the three girls, the next to show up was Lunoire who had her characteristically gentle smile and almost sleepy looking eyes. She climbed up on the massage table and talked about her day while Vahn gave her a light massage and patiently listened to her words. Lunoire had ventured into the Dungeon with Tiona, Naaza, and Lili today and they had gone all the way down to the 24th Floor, even though it was relatively dangerous to do so considering the existence of enemies within the Dungeon. However, they had worked it out with the other girls beforehand and took the [Rallying Whistle] with them just in case they needed help.

Lunoire was beginning to work hard to increase her strength, but she still had the same disposition of simply wanting to laze about at times, much like Hestia. She had also opened up a lot to Vahn and was one of the girls that proactively talked about her day and the things she was worried about when they were alone. Many of the other girls had a tendency to bottle up their thoughts, much like himself, so it was sometimes difficult to understand what they were going through. Fortunately, they talked amongst themselves a lot and, the ones that were less vocal, still put their concerns onto the network and received 'counseling' from Hestia and Syr after the fact...

Once Lunoire had left, the next girl to enter the salon had been Ryuu, who had a bit of a bashful look to her. Vahn felt the urge to tease her but kept things 'professional' as she sat down in a reclining chair he had within the salon. Ryuu hadn't come for a massage and instead, somewhat hesitantly, asked Vahn for a pedicure and a manicure as she relaxed against the chair. Vahn happily obliged and dutifully attended to Ryuu, even as her blush grew progressively redder over time. He didn't tease her directly but, by talking to her and keeping her from completely relaxing her mind, Ryuu was overly aware of his actions and felt very embarrassed to have him grabbing her legs and 'playing' around with her toes...

After sending off the tomato-colored Ryuu, the last person he tended to for the afternoon ended up being Tsubaki. Vahn felt a little exasperated when she showed up because Tsubaki was always very 'proactive' when it came to things and it was hard to stay calm around her. Fortunately, she had calmed down a bit compared to her past self as a result of her pregnancy. Though she teased him a fair amount, she was quickly 'tamed' after Vahn gave her a deep tissue massage without relying too much on his [Hands of Nirvana]. It wouldn't be nearly as pleasant, even causing her a bit of soreness, but it was the type of ache that was strangely relaxing. Vahn also took the time to check the status of her pregnancy, a topic that hade made Tsubaki mellow out greatly.

Once his salon treatments were finished, Vahn went to visit Terra inside the garden and spent the remaining time before dinner talking with her, Riveria, and Syr. The atmosphere around Riveria was a bit strange, but Vahn pretended not to notice it too much and just pandered to the mature High Elf for a bit so she wouldn't try to beat him with her staff. She was likely still bothered from the events of the day prior but Vahn wasn't going to shy away so easily so he did his best to stay calm as they talked about some of his research topics. Riveria was interested in the idea of the orbs, though Vahn hadn't gone into any details about 'why' he wanted to make them, while Syr seemed to have inferred something from Vahn's behavior and had a small smile on her face. Terra was much the same, but for decidedly different reasons...
