章 336: Chapter 64 : Gathering

"Looks like you had a good chat with those four. How did it go, Elsa?", a silver skinned man dressed in a fancy white daoist robe with medium length white hair asked. His robe was lined with azure coloring. A golden halo could be seen over his head. His fluffy white wings were currently retracted into his back. He looked very similar to Metatron from the Shin Megami Tensei series, except his wings were white and fluffy, and that he had twelve.

This was Nao of course. He was now a Seraph, one of the highest orders in the heavens. Orders and ranks were typically depicted by one's wings in the heavens. Nao had twelve wings in total. Twelve was seen as the highest order beneath god himself.

Unfortunately there were no gods or heavens in this place. And the one god Nao was familiar with besides the couple of goddesses in his harem and the gods in the DBZ Plane was leisurely exploring the vast Multiverse with his angel attendants. But one of them wasn't with him any more, and that was Michael, who joined Nao's family at the end of the DBZ Plane. In terms of ranks she was the highest in his order being a 12 winged Seraph as well, but now she is with Nao, enjoying in nightly activities with the other girls in his harem. She had yet to have her first time with Nao though, but she figured her time was approaching, as only Vados and Towa were ahead of her in the line.

And if Nao had to take a guess, he figured the old man was in the SAO Universe, right after the war ended in the Underworld. He was sure it was the old man's doing in bringing Eydis here. Eydis did say she didn't see him before getting dropped in that spatial distortion, but it was very likely the old man hid himself well.

However, Nao was grateful to the old man for bringing Eydis here. He wasn't sure if SAO was a Plane he would venture into, but now it looks like he will venture into it after Pokémon and Trails. She was one of his favorite characters besides Leafa, Yuuki and Alice. There were plenty of girls he could form a bond with there, since even though many formed bonds with Kirito, it was only Asuna who settled down with him. Hopefully when he does venture into this Plane, Nao can do things from the beginning of the story.

But he had to put that at the back of his mind for now. Sure he mustn't forget about testing the communication device Eydis brought out earlier. After Eydis was brought to her room, Tights took a few minutes to bring that device to Isabella, Towa, and Vados. Surely with the tinkering of those three, they could make it work. It'd be awesome if Nao could communicate with someone directly across Planes, especially one he had yet to visit.

And with that said, Nao could currently be seen sitting on his throne still. He was left alone when Elsa and the others left, and when Elsa inspected the four npcs.

From his point of view, not even an hour passed before he saw Aura and Mare return to the throne room, who immediately saluted him before walking off to the side. The two told him they were waiting for everyone to gather. Next, it was Elsa to come in and returned to Nao's side beside his throne, which was her proper place.

Yet before Elsa came back in, Nao heard a faint yelp that stretched the hallway leading up to the throne room. It was hard to discern who this voice belonged to, but it sounded like it was Shaltear to him. But nonetheless, he said that to Elsa, who nodded back at him.

"Yes It went well. I directly permitted Albedo to join us."

"Eh?"

"What. Did you not see this coming or something?"

"It was expected unless she didn't get approved by you for some reason. Still, isn't it a bit early?"

"Our family is ever growing, Nao. That's why I went ahead and did the checks ahead of time, before our influence starts to spread in the New World. Besides, Albedo's fruit is ready to be plucked.", Elsa said with a smile. She then leaned toward his ear and whispered into it. "On top of that, Albedo's breasts are huge. I was able to get a good look, she is on par with Sister Eir."

"Seriously?", Nao asked, raising his eyebrows. 'I knew Albedo's was big, but wasn't expecting that big...', Nao thought to himself.

"Yeah. From now on she'll be with us girls in the main bedroom."

"I see. What about the other other three?"

"Shaltear is...", Elsa began to say. "Hmm...How should I put this?"

"Eh? Is something wrong with Shaltear?"

"I wouldn't say that something is wrong with her...but you know you tried to tone down her settings, to be less crazy, right?"

"Indeed. She should be more moderate now."

"Well that's where the problem lies. Deep down, Shaltear is the same lewd vampire she was depicted in our library. Brother Peroroncino is at fault for this. He just made her way too kinky...And despite us trying to remove some of that, she showed plenty enough during my checking of her."

"I see...Well, despite our effort, I guess some things just can't be changed, huh? To be honest that might not necessarily be a bad thing...I'd rather take a lewd Shaltear over a crazy Shaltear. But with the way you're speaking, it sounds like you've already got a plan in motion to counter this behavior?"

"I do! Though it does have a chance to backfire, I think Shaltear will be able to overcome this, fufu.", Elsa replied with a giggle.

"...What did you do?"

"This.", Elsa replied, pulling out a small switch of sorts. It appeared to be a slick small black box with a sliding meter and couple of buttons on it.

Nao became surprised seeing this box come into view and raised his eyebrows.

"That wouldn't happen to be a rotor switch to one of Those, would it?"

"It most certainly is!", Elsa answered confidently.

Hearing that, Nao let out a sigh.

"So you're going to lewd the lewd vampire?"

Elsa nodded and spoke out.

"Well, that's one way of saying it. This will be a training course for her. It will last one year. This will test her willpower. To see if Shaltear will fall apart first or see if her loyalty and love for you will overcome that constant feeling of pleasure."

"I see. In the original, she ended up on the chopping block only to be slain from Ainz, no less. Her mind was overtaken by what could be a a possible World Item we don't know about. So if her mind and willpower can improve from this, I don't see a problem. Will she be able to take it out if her during this one year?"

"I'm glad you could see this training of mine like this. And to answer your question, no. It is locked tight inside her and no matter where she goes or what she does, she can't take it out."

Nao raised his eyebrows after Elsa said that before he spoke out again.

"Isn't that a bit extreme? Would she still be able to go to the bathroom--is what I would ask next, but undead don't need to excrete, do they?"

"As far as I'm aware, no. But just in case the device on her does let Shaltear relieve herself if she needs to."

"Good."

Hearing that, Elsa also let out a sigh of relief before talking once more.

"Besides, let this be a trial for Shaltear. If she can overcome it and stay true to her heart and love for you, we will welcome her into our harem with a warm heart. If she fails, she will remain a servant of our house under Sister Tights. How does that sound?"

Nao nodded his head in confirmation.

"That works for me. This course will depend on Shaltear's actions from now.", Nao said, concluding this topic. His eyes then shifted to the two dark skinned elves further down near one of the marble pillars besides the long red carpet embroidered carpet. The chandeliers hanging up above illuminated the marbled floor white as well. It was quite a fancy throne room, but much brighter and welcoming compared to Ainz's gloomy and dark throne room.

As a result, the two twins could be seen a relaxed manner, talking with each other while Mare appeared nervous as usual as she listened to Aura's antics.

"How are the twins, Elsa? Do they check out?"

"Aura and Mare are doing well. I checked their bodies too, and they're still pure. According to Sister Iris, both of them turned 76 years old this year, but if we were to put that in human years, they'd probably be close to twelve or thirteen year old children. They're still growing. I won't let them join us until their bodies are mature enough to where they appear sixteen to eighteen year old humans. But in elven years, that's probably twenty to thirty more years for us."

"I see. Will you plan anything for them, or will you let them directly enter it?"

"No plans. Once they're aged enough I'll let the two in. Though if you're a bit adventurous, I don't mind them cuddling with you during our nights, fufu.", Elsa replied with a grin.

Nao coughed a bit right as Elsa said that.

"You're pushing legal boundaries by doing that you know."

"You're really going to bring that up with these two? They're way older than the age limit anyways, Aura and Mare are elves. Besides, you went past that boundary the moment you brought in your non-blood related daughter into it, haha!", Elsa changed her earlier giggle into a laugh now.

"Fie is an exception. I didn't want to go against her wishes. But if Aura and Mare aren't against cuddling, I don't see why not."

"Then why don't we test it out? Once night comes we'll call them in. Albedo knows to show up too."

"Works for me.", Nao nodded again.

"And on that note, I'll give you a piece of good news. About Aura specifically."

"Aura? I thoughts Mare was the one with the special case. Didn't Iris have something planned for Mare?" (A/N : At this point Nao still doesn't know Mare is a girl)

"Sister Iris did, and that change already went into effect. I'll let you discover that with Mare yourself next. But first, Aura just came came across something,", Elsa replied with a mysterious tone, but she knew well what Aura just felt for the first time after observing her body in the hallway moments ago.

"Is that so? Then what exactly did Aura discover?"

"Aura just learned what masturbation is.", Elsa said calmly, looking at the two elves talking to each other downward along with Nao's gaze.

Nao didn't blink for a good moment once Elsa dropped that news on him. Since Elsa touched Aura earlier during her examining, Aura didn't know what pleasure or pleasing one's self was. Elsa hinted that to Aura to explore on her own, but she decided to tell Nao as well of this development.

Nao's eyes landed on Aura, then shifted back to Elsa.

"Isn't that a bit early for Aura?", Nao retorted. "And here you thought Fie was a bad idea."

"What can I say? I could feel their individual love and loyalty for you. If Aura wants to cuddle with us, you can be a beacon to let her ease into that new feeling."

"I see...and we should bring both in then?"

"Yeah. Aura and Mare do know how to act independently, but I feel they should share this feeling with us together."

"Got it. Then what's the deal with Mare?"

"Why not let Mare tell you directly?"

"Very well."

Meanwhile, Aura and Mare could be seen in their same spot. Nao and Elsa talked for several minutes while the two twins talked to each other. Seeing Nao and Elsa continuously speak to each other without stopping, Mare tilted her head. The two were quite a ways away so they couldn't hear the two's voices.

"Say, Big Sis, do you know what Lord Nao and My Lady are talking about? It looks pretty serious."

Hearing that, Aura shrugged her shoulders.

"Beats me. Whatever it is though I'm sure it's for the benefit of our family. Speaking of which why is that stupid Shaltear taking so long? She should know better not to delay our Lord."

"Sister Albedo also didn't directly come here either...are they getting ready or something?"

"It's possible.", Aura replied, letting her hands hang out beside her head lazily.

Yet a firm deep voice interrupted the two, who directly spoke out to Mare.

"Come here, Mare.", Nao commanded Mare.

Mare became dazed for a moment suddenly hearing Nao's voice. She panicked for a moment but then padded her skirt down and collected herself. Grabbing her wooden staff, she paced along the red carpet. Mare almost stumbled over herself along the way, which earned a sigh from Aura, but Nao found this cute.

Nao truly wanted to find out whether Bukubukuchagama made Mare a boy or a girl. Elsa and the npcs knew, but he did not yet.

As Mare approached Nao and the two began to talk to each other, a dark gate appeared beside Aura, revealing Albedo. She actually came wearing her full black horned armor set, which was none other the armor set she frequently wore in the original story. It was a three layered armor set bolstering insanely high defensive capabilities, and magic disruption abilities! It was her divine item set, Hermes Trismegistus!

"I apologize for my delay, Aura, Mare.", Albedo calmly said. Aura looked at her, who Albedo, in response, tilted her head in confusion. "Huh? Where did Mare go?", Albedo asked.

"Mare was just called by Lord Nao, apparently.", Aura said, pointing back behind her with her thumb. Albedo traced her gaze and indeed saw Mare now talking with Nao. After conversing for a bit, which they couldn't hear, Albedo actually saw Nao lift Mare up, only to bring her onto his knee while Nao still sat on his throne. Mare became dazed during this as Nao checked Mare out, and to specifically find out her gender.

It was at this time Nao finally figured out the truth behind Mare, and like Elsa finding out, Mare was indeed a girl! Now it made since as to why Elsa would let both of the two in. Nao took a good look at Mare who became dazed ever since she felt the warmth of his knee.

After a good moment of silence, Nao calmly lifted Mare up, placing her back onto the floor, of which she finally snapped out of her daze.

"Thank you for letting me do this, Mare. You can go rejoin the others and wait for everyone to gather here."

"I-It was no problem, Lord Nao! Thank you for giving me this blessing!", Mare responded happily, letting her pupils sparkle.

'All I did was put you on my knee to check something...', Nao inwardly retorted. 'Well, as long as Mare is happy from this.', Nao thought to himself. "Move along.", Nao said to Mare.

."Y-Yes! If you will excuse me.", Mare replied, giving Nao a bow. She then strutted back toward Aura and the armored Albedo, who was now waiting for Shaltear.

Nao then turned back to Elsa and asked her another question.

"Speaking of our gathering, it should be everyone, right? Not just the npcs."

"Yes. We were going to gather here to talk about our next step, but you got something in mind don't you now?"

"Mmm. I know what our next steps will be. But for now we will wait for everyone to gather first."

"Won't this be the first time we're actively using the throne room too? I must say even I'm getting a bit excited once we see our sisters, brothers and our npcs here. It's been a while since we've all met up like this."

"Now that you mention it, I suppose it is, heh. Do you want me to create a second throne for you? You are the head wife here, Elsa. It's only fair for you to sit by me."

"I appreciate the thought Nao, but I'm perfect fine standing right beside you like this. Not even Sister Miya can claim this spot of mine, fufu."

"If that's what you wish."

"It is. And from the looks of it so far the npcs are really going all out to receive your first command since we've arrived in the New World. There was that ritual of fidelity thing too, wasn't there? Perhaps they'll express their loyalty to you with that too."

"You're right. Ainz's npcs did the same thing to him, so it's a good chance we'll see them do it here."

"Yeah. For now, let's continue to wait. I've got nothing else to say."

"Mmm.", Nao replied, agreeing Elsa. The two became silent, watching Albedo, Aura, and Mare stand off to the side a ways down the throne room. It didn't take long for another dark gate to appear out of nowhere, pf which a voice spoke out of it.

"Oh my, it seems like I'm the fourth to arrive, huh?", Shaltear's voice said, escaping from the dark gate.

A/N ; Aht here!

It was a bit of a busy work week. It is June and it is second busiest month of year for me, so will try to post chapters when I can. Enjoy this double chapter!

Everyone is going to be gathering! Look forward to the next chapter!
