A Cliché Multiverse Story

I couldn't upload yesterday, so there are two chapters today!

-x-x-x-??

Waking up to a soft warmth caressing every part of your body was hardly a bad sign. Snores of different volumes and tones surrounded me. Nee-san with her head on my chest was the loudest of the bunch.

"Otou-sama."

It's not a word I wanted to hear from anyone other than Saya. This time, it came from Shiori trembling in my chest. Her twisted expression wrenched my guts. She never openly talked about her father, and yet here she was, murmuring "Otou-sama" in her dreams.

Her father was okay though. Stroking her hair, I whispered a few sweet words in her ears. As her anxiety eased, she happily snuggled closer.

"Better."

Today's schedule was a bit packed. A trip to Maya's world to let the girls become familiar with the magic technology. They will be spending a lot of time there in the future. Speaking of which, I forgot one thing.

I summoned a ring from the spatial ring. This one connected to Maya???s ring.

'Maya?'

"Onii… sama?!"

'Yep. Did you miss me?'

"How can I not!"

'Good. I'll be coming over today with… some of my girlfriends.'

"Really?!" she yelled. "Thanks, Onii-sama!"

'...Can you lie about your age…?'

This question was too much to ask. Even my thick skin couldn't defend my soft heart.

"Absolutely. I'll tell them I am fifteen."

Speaking of age, my birthday was coming in a month… About time I turned eighteen.

Nee-san stirred awake, shortly followed by others. Panties and brassieres, the girls wore whatever they could grab.

*Knock!* *Knock!*

"My Lord."

Sitting on the edge of the bed, I pulled my underwear and trousers. Nee-san and Nao frantically sprayed some perfume to clear the indecent air everywhere.

"You can come in."

The door flung open. Rini's bloodshot eyes pierced into me. I threw my shirt aside and focused on calming her with headpats.

She was fighting?

I lifted Rini. She wrapped her limbs around me and clung to me like a koala. I caressed her head to calm her raging emotions. Grayfia carried Aiko in the same way as Leme slept on her back. The devil woman and Diva got along pretty nicely.

Nao took the sleeping Aiko from her and stood beside me, glaring Grayfia for an answer.

"Would you like to say something?"

"We went to the dungeon."

"The fuck? You took Aiko to the dungeon?"

Aiko experiencing the pain of the monsters. I felt chills at the thought.

Grayfia bowed deeply. "I didn't know… about her ability."

"How did she react?"

Grayfia stopped bowing. "The walls are crying, she said after seeing the monster spawning."

The walls are crying…? Is she referring to the dungeon? Why would the dungeon cry?

"Did Aiko cry?" Nao asked in a bland voice.

Boy, she was angry today.

Hands clasped on her lap, Grayfia shook her head. "She didn't."

Was Aiko starting to gain control over her soul witch ability with meditation?

"Nao, it's my fault for not telling her."

"My Lord… I shouldn't have gone to the dungeon."

"Did Rini request?"

Grayfia averted her eyes just a tiny bit. "She didn't."

My guess was right. Trying to protect Rini from punishment, my maid was too cute.

Nao tugged at my sleeve and flashed a soft smile. "Grayfia-san… pardon me for being furious."

Grayfia returned a short bow. "I shall."

Saya rushed up and slapped Leme's back. The lovable Diva yelped and released Grayfia. Saya caught Leme and snickered. "This idiot."

"Leme isn't an idiot," Leme protested with puffed cheeks and pointed at me. "Leme's bond with Master conveyed his lewd feelings. Leme was overwhelmed and escaped to her dreams."

Wait a minute. She felt my feelings before… it also meant she was aware of all of my lewd thoughts…

(Always has been.)

Poor Leme…

'Remind me if I try to have sex with someone other than Leme.'

(Alrighty.)

If it went on like this, I would never be able to embrace her.

Nee-san joined me in patting Rini. "Where do we bathe?"

Now that the two made up, another problem arose. No girl would ever wanna go to someone's home with cum-stained hair.

"Grayfia, stay here and look after the room. It's your punishment."

Grayfia's lips arched into a bright smile. "Understood, My Lord."

Odd… Whatever.

"Let's go to the forest!"

"Wait," Nao said and tucked Aiko into the bed. "Please, look after her."

Grayfia firmly nodded. "I will."

I teleported everyone to the forest. The girls went on a rampage, annihilating every poor dino out here. I set up a giant tub in the center. Saeko poured down tons of water with her Water Element and gulped mana potions to recover.

Leme tried to grope Saya, who retaliated by splashing water on Leme. A splash fight broke out. On the other side, Saeko gently washed Shiori's back while Rika flexed her figure to the sisters. Nao ignored everyone's envious glare on her breasts and rubbed the shampoo on Nee-san's hair. Yuriko just chilled in one corner.

So much fun happened while I was stuck on the wall Yuriko created with Rini on my lap.

"Onii-san," she whispered, pushing me to retreat and stand on her feet. "Forgive me…"

At least she apologized for her mistake.

"But why would you go there?"

"I wanted to check something." Rini fished out a magic stone from her pocket. "This… I can use it."

She closed her eyes in deep concentration. A translucent red aura surrounded her, growing stronger by every second. I held my gaping mouth. The grain-sized magic stone in Aiko's hand shrunk and disappeared.

"I feel stronger."

Holy shit. She just ate that magic stone with gluttony.

'How much did her stats grow?'

(Half point in strength and one point in magic.)

That's pretty good considering the magic stone was from a mob level monster. I gave her a shard of the magic stone acquired from the dragon boss. She just stared at it in her hands.

"I can't do it."

Countdown?

(The cd depends on the mana absorbed. It's one minute for the small stone..)

After a minute, she devoured it. This triggered a ten-minute countdown, which passed away quickly. Another one and the countdown increased by twelve minutes. We even waited for that, but the girls still weren't done with their bath.

Wow…

After eating one more time, Rini's stats looked like this.

Wow…

She was so overpowered.

Hold on, she is 14 now. We missed such an important event.

"Rini, when was your birthday?"

She scratched her forehead in deep thought, and then shook her head. "I don't remember."

A better idea popped up in my head.

"Why don't we celebrate it today."

It was better than letting the day go to waste. We can celebrate at Maya's rich clan house. With the time shift between worlds, most of the birthdays would be fucked.

'Remind me when someone's birthday arrives.'

(Let me check… Saya's birthday is tomorrow!)

'That's great! We'll make it a huge party then.'

(I can't come…)

'Change of venues. The big party will be held in my dream. I'm gonna drag everyone there.'

(...)

'I will ignore you if you don't come.'

(You won't do it,) she rebuked calmly.

She could read all my thoughts. Guess one of the few cons of having a goddess linked to you.

(I… will prepare my heart.)

'You're not going to a battlefield!'

(It's the biggest hurdle of my life!)
