Chapter 110 – Yuki and Kelly go Pick up the Dragons
*** Yuki, shortly after Alzi left the brothel ***
"YOU DIDN''T TELL HER?!" Kelly screams.
"No, it wouldn''t change anything. Alzi just would''ve been sad and depressed. That''s bad for her and the kids. The stupid cor wi..."
"IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE!" she interrupts me. "You could''ve told her your n. Prepared her so she wouldn''t be absolutely destroyed walking out of here. Her cor was shocking her the entire time to get her to move! You had four months to say something. I trusted you would do it. Hell, you could''ve bought her years ago. You just wanted her to be a breeder without any of the consequences. You wanted her to love you, knowing she would look past the fact you''re a princess who could''ve saved her the second you loved her. Fucking greedy bitch."
"I have my people to think about as well," I say. "Alzi is now in nearly the perfect state to help my people."
"Then you would''ve spread your legs decades ago. No, you just had yourself in mind. You wasted the years you were meant to find a husband, so now you know you need toe back with something big."
"Girls! Neither of you could''ve told me? Both of you kept me in the dark for what reason?" Mai asks.
"Yuki was supposed to tell you and Alzi about this. Don''t me me for thinking a friend would tell you."
"It happened the way I thought it was best. Now, if you want in, you cane along. Otherwise, goodbye," I say.
"Put my shit in your ring. I''m not rich enough to get that," Kelly demands, turning to go to her old room.
"Demanding I work for you after that? Handle your own shit."
"No, you''ll pick it up. What you''ve done here at the brothel is terrible and annoying. So you''re going toe take my shit. Drop it off at your house then we are going to get married. From here on out, you''re going to have the Goddess pressuring you to behave for the good of Alzi."
"Oh, and you know what is best for Alzi?"
"Better than you, apparently," she says with a m of her door.
"Yuki, just go get her stuff. A marriage wouldn''t be a bad idea. Wives don''t always love each other, just the main girl. Come on, you know Alzi wants her around," Mai asks me. "We''re making a scene, well, more of one than Alzi did earlier. Come on, we need to go."
We are in the middle of the back rooms. Every girl waiting for the doors to open is currently watching our little fight.
"Fine. Do you have your stuff?" I ask, turning to follow the damn healer.
"Yes, the Countess gave me a small ring. Now hurry; we need to drop our stuff off, get married, and then go pick up Alzi''s Mother."
I give out a short huff and continue my short walk into Kelly''s room.
"What do you want to keep?" I ask her.
"This pile here and then this one as well," the healer says, carrying over arge pile of dresses, robes, and undergarments. "I''ve got one more pile of clothing to take. Working in a brothel didn''t let me hoard too many things."
"Fine," I say, pulling in the random assortment of cookware, potion kits, and knickknacks. I wait for Kelly to bring the second pile before taking all her clothing and walking out. Kelly follows behind me as we pick up Mai and walk out just as the crowd starts walking in.
I hear murmurs about Mai and me leaving. Kelly was never really known outside of the brothel girls. But I''m sure the girls will miss her and Alzi.
Outside, we walk down the block to a small carriage I booked to take us to my house. We''ll have to just walk to the vige; no carriage big enough for six is going to book such a trip. Maybe Nakume is back and she can teleport us some of the way.
Once I set Nakuma straight in the forest, she became a good girl and started adventuring with a warrior she picked up. I''ll have to join her when they finish their current assignment.
It''ll be fun to travel again, I really was stuck in that room basically for too long. Get away from Kelly for a bit. Test the water with Nakuma and see if getting fucked truly did calm her down.
"We''re ready," I call out to the driver once Mai and Kelly sit down opposite of me.
"So what happens now?" Kelly asks.
"You, Mai, and Alzi''s mother and wives sit at home while me, Nakuma, and the warrior she found go out and kill stuff," I say.
"Are we sure that''s a good idea? You came back nearly dead every time you went out thest time you tried that," she says.
"It''ll be monsters and assassinations with less of a time pressure."
"Sure, sure. I guess we can count on Nakuma unless you chase her away again."
"Stop it. Just shut up, you two. I''m not going to deal with fighting, so figure it out. You both failed Alzi and me. So be nice or be quiet when I''m around. Her Mother better not find out about this. She''ll never trust us knowing we caused her daughter that much distress," Mai says.
We follow her request, letting the rest of the ride be quiet. Just the shaking of the carriage down the stone road.
"We''ve arrived!" the driver calls back to us.
"Thank you," Mai says back, opening the door and stepping out. I quickly follow her and move to open my house.
"Mai, your room should still be set up. Kelly can choose from the rest. Alzi''s Mother''s family can have thest two rooms. I think they''ll be used to sharing a bit," I say. Mai walks off, and I follow Kelly to thest room on my side. I dump her clothing on the bed and the rest on the floor then head out to the living room to wait for them toe back. It really seems like we''ll be spending the night in the vige since Nakuma isn''t home today.
I should write her a note so she doesn''t run off while we''re walking back.
Mai''s pregnant figure is the first to join me. Kelly doesn''t take long after that to walk in.
"Now, you all said to get married, but I can''t. Mine is to be done in my realm with my husband," I say.
"I don''t believe you," Kelly snaps back, walking out the door.
"I have a patron Goddess. She has rules!" I shout back.
"Princesses always get the special shit," she says, storming back in.
"How do you even know I''m a princess?" I ask.
"You''re quite famous among the elderly," Kelly says.
"Hmm, well, yes. Royalty gets privileges. Don''t like it? Too bad. Last month wasn''t the first time I''ve been on the brink of death. I''ve done that often, gaining my sses. Getting the most power I can. I''m expected to be a powerful woman. So, all that work gets me a few nice things," I tell her. "Now, let''s start walking. We have a lot of work to do and two pregnant women traveling. Let''s do this with some light, ok."
Kelly just stormed out again. I walked over to help Mai up, and we went to join the healer outside.
Once more, we start to travel in silence. The vampire standing between me and Kelly. Hoping to keep us from yelling more out in the open.
We make our way through the afternoon crowd making our way to the gate. Everyone makes way for my whitetails and gives them a little stare before continuing on with their day. I don''t draw a crowd like I would for my stupid marches, luckily. Though I''m sure the extra attention would piss off Kelly even more.
With a mostly free path forward, we make good time getting to the gate. Not many are looking to go outside at this time. You could only make it to the small viges before nightfall, so only some workers are leaving now. The merchants will leave in the morning.
The guards let us through without question. Just a quick nce before waving us on.
We pick up the pace a bit on the wide road. There is plenty of room for carriages and merchandise to fit through until they get to the narrow street past the gate and into the city. Not that there are many out right now. Just a small line heading to the city stopped at the entrance.
We continue the trip in silence, each of us a bit nervous about how her Mother will take the news. Maybe I should''ve just told her Mother and had her figure out how to tell Alzi. She can just tickle Alzi a bit and get the silly dragon to smile for a week.
I still can''t believe my biggest fight for my Lover''s heart is her mom.
While not unheard of, this nation has a long practice of the Queen joining a daughter''s harem; it is rare for amoner without an affinity to get into her daughter''s harem.
I''ll win out. I''ll just have to y into Alzi''s breeder''s feelings. I''ll let her really knock me up. Match her dozen or something. Making Alzi stick by my side for nine months, and she''ll be mine, as I deserve.
First, though, is getting married to her.
"What are you three doing?" a guard yells out from their small walls.
"I''m Going into the vige," I say back, walking up to the wooden gate. "Open up!"
"What business do you have here?" she asks instead.
"Sleeping. Now, don''t make me jump it. We''re tired and still have a number of things to do before we get to sleep."
"I dare you to jump it!"
I use a bit of mana and do as I was asked, bringing Mai and Kelly with me. I keep heading towards the center of the town. We''ll need to ask for directions to Armirynth''s house.
"You can''t go any farther!" the guards say, not yet ready to give up on her little wall.
"Look, if we wanted to hurt anyone, we could, and there isn''t a thing you can do about it. You wouldn''t even know I was here," I say, giving off the illusion of me walking down a random road. "See, now I want to know where Armirynth lives. So either tell me or go back to watching the wall. It''s been a long day."
"Few streets that way. Akhae should be walking home soon. You should be able to follow her if you hurry," a passerby says. The guard still trying to figure out what to do about me.
"Thank you," I say to the new woman before heading off in the direction she pointed.
We don''t catch Akhae walking, but Armirynth is waiting outside and perks up when she sees my tails.
"Why are you standing out here?" Mai asks, running into her arms.
"It happened, right?" she says, doing her best to hug with the bellies getting in the way. "My baby was taken farther away?"
"Yes, how did you know?" I ask,ing up to the pregnant women.
"Inside, please. I''ll exin there."
