As it was getting late for my date with Nesiphae, I quickly summoned around two thousand Super Undead Soldiers and left my servant's training with them for the rest of the day.
Recently Nesiphae haven't been present in the training grounds so I was worried about where she should be. After investigating with my flesh and slime minions for some minutes, I found that she was back on her original home, in the Dark Miasma Forest.
"Why is she in there?"
I equipped myself with the [Thunderstorm Phoenix Feather Armor] enhanced with my [Ancient Mystical Ice Phoenix Orb of Forbidden Wisdom], which enhanced and reinforced the feather armor into a powerful and light set. Using this new speed, I quickly flew towards the Dark Miasma Swamp in less than ten minutes.
I saw Nesiphae resting near the swamp, and noticed a hint of nostalgia and sadness on her face, alongside some happiness and calmness.
After she felt my presence, she quickly looked over the skies and received me.
"M-Master?"
"Nesiphae, I've been looking for you. Why are you here?"
"A-Ah… It's just that… As our children's egg grows inside of my belly, I've felt the necessity to come back to my old swamp. I also wanted to talk to my mother about this… I buried her near the swamp"
I approached Nesiphae and caressed her long arms.
"Do you miss her?"
"I-I… It has been very long since she died, so I have long cried everything I had for her… I just felt the necessity to come here and tell her that she was going to become a grandmother very soon… Hehe…"
Nesiphae's mother died when she was very young, at the age of one, according to her, by the hands of a strong Dark Miasma Alligator Emperor. A strong battle went across the entire Dark Miasma Forest, her mother was very strong and ultimately defeated the beast, who wanted to eat Nesiphae. However, she ended up with several fatal wounds and died while hugging her daughter.
The next days, Nesiphae cried calling for her mother to wake up, and as the time passed, her mother's body began to rot, which forced Nesiphae to bury her.
Although Nesiphae tried to look tough, she was crying a big river which fell over the Dark Miasma Swamp. To calm her sadness, I secreted a relaxing and sweet fragrance, while patting her arms and head with [Lovely Care: Healthy Mind], which can cure ailments like [Confusion] and [Madness] and seemed to work on her melancholy.
I decided that in the future, as our Kingdom expands towards this area, I will build a big temple in memory of her mother. So Nesiphae will always be able to easily come here and talk with her mother whenever she feels like.
When Nesiphae finally calmed herself, she was rather sleepy, so we spent the next three hours taking a nap near her swamp.
Wanting to surprise her, I sneakily began to prepare a delicious feast for her, it included several of her favorite meat, like Giant Ice Rabbits, Blood Monster Emperor, and the most high-quality Familiars, which included Thunderstorm Phoenix and its tasty eggs, Draconic Lion Chimera, Tundra Lion, and several Baby Wyvern.
I seasoned the meat with delicious sweet and sour sauces, alongside spicy sauce and several forest veggies. I also brought her favorite beer, which was the Forest Berries Beer.
Due to the delicious smell, Nesiphae quickly woke up with a sleepy face and a drooling mouth.
"Meat… Ah! So much meat! M-Master, is this all for me?!"
"It is! Feel free to eat as much as you want!"
"Aaah! This is the best gift!"
Nesiphae quickly jumped on the food and began to devour the delicious grilled meat as if there was no tomorrow. I obviously joined her while I prepared more meat as we talked about several things that she came up with, and we even decided that if our child is a girl, we will give her Nesiphae's mother's name.
After the big feast, we went on a hunting spree with Nesiphae, as we hunted any strong monster we came across. I came across several new species of monsters that I've never eaten before, these were Dark Miasma Five-Tailed Foxes, Dark Miasma Crimson Crow Emperor, etc. After hunting for three hours straight, I prepared all these monsters for dinner. However, I barely got any Skills from them, but what was important was Nesiphae's happiness.
[You gained 487210 EXP]
[You gained one level!] [LEVEL 59/70 EXP 000248/804000]
[You learned the following Skills]
[Five Mystic Cursed Tails]
[Crimson Miasma Imposing Wings]
Oh, I even gained a level from this.
After a nice dinner, I gave Nesiphae her [Enhanced Poisonous Obsidian Golden Ring] and several clothes I made for her, she began to try some of them right away, she especially loved the big dresses I made her, which couldn't be produced on town because of the size.
Her ring also came with a strong enhancement on her Strength and Defense, alongside a strong effect named [Corrosive Poisonous Obsidian Curse], which grants the [Curse] effect on each of her attacks, being able to inflict a powerful poison on its enemies. This poison can penetrate armor and most magic shields, and is very resilient, needing a very talented cleric to heal it off.
After she tried on several of the clothes, she remained with the beautiful swimsuit that I crafted for her, which was beautifully decorated with rose-like paintings and was made of a purple fabric.
Nesiphae looked at me with a lusty smile as I immediately knew that she wanted to "mate" with me again, so I quickly increased my size to match hers and we mated for several hours in front of the moonlight.
Several hours later I had to carry Nesiphae to my castle, as she fell asleep in the forest.

[Day 57]
Today Alice and Sakura woke me up.
"Good morning, Master Kireina~!"
"Aah! Good morning, Empress Kireina! Your bath is ready. Oh! I have bought several new aromatic soaps that you and Miss Zehe, Miss Rimuru, Miss Nesiphae, Miss Brontes, Miss Gaby, and Miss Yurei could enjoy"
"A-Ah! T-Thanks…"
Leaving the two maids aside, I had a nice bath with my wives and the little Yurei. Although Yurei has a phantasmal body and doesn't even need to take a bath, she enjoys the warm atmosphere, the steam and the fragrance of the soaps.
After having a nice breakfast which consisted mostly of crepes and fruits, I called the two Human girls and went to see how the crops have been doing.
They have been growing to almost adult stage by now, but some needed more assistance, so Lilith's [Farming Grace] came in help quite a lot, reinforcing most of the crops. Also, now that Eshne was back, I was able to call for his assistance.
It was a tiring work but everything seems going fine. We also expanded the farming zone even more, now covering more than five hundred hectares.
After finishing the farming work, I began to inspect the other Kingdom activities and news.
The Breeding Team has been working hard and there are already four women pregnant, with the Demon Concubine and the Half Poison Lord included. However, as more women get pregnant, we can always refill the place with more.
A Goblin incubation takes around 20 days, while Trolls can take up to 30 days. But there may be exceptions if the children end up being Half Demon or Half Lords, which would incubate for way longer.
Before having my date with Brontes, I had a nice time playing with Mao (Dark Flare Draconic Lion Chimera Pet) and Guubo, of course, both in separate times.
The cavalry project has been doing fine, more soldiers are slowly learning how to mount each monster, afterward, they should learn how to properly fight while mounting them…
I plan on separating the mounted cavalry in different teams, there will be a Tank Cavalry mostly made of Bears and Giant Golden Beetles, a Penetration Cavalry made of Two-Headed Crystal Horses and an Airborne and Reconnaissance Cavalry made of Griffons.
And about Guubo, he has been exploring some unexplored areas of the Grand Forest, I explicitly ordered him to not eat too much, but I think he haven't obeyed me so strictly… He has gained a lot of levels and is quickly raising his stats due to having the [Sacred Forest Guardian] status. His skill window is as wide as mine already, and it wouldn't be far from saying that he would be very hard to beat. Thankfully, he's my loyal servant.
After having everything settled, I went to look for Brontes on Kusuri and Kajiya workshop.
She was making several ingots with a special mineral named [Dark Void Gold] a beautiful dark-colored metal with a very shiny golden luster. Brontes was very concentrating on her work, so I only watched her on the back until she finished after roughly one and a half hours. After finishing the ingots, she wiped the sweat on her forehead and sighed.
To assist her, I took a towel from my Item Box alongside a cup that I filled with very icy water.
"There you have, Miss Brontes"
Brontes took the towel and cup of water without noticing that it was me, as she drank the entire cup and wiped the sweat on her forehead, she slowly realized that I was beside her.
"Ah! B-Big sis?"
"You are such a hard worker, aren't you? What are you planning to do with those ingots?"
At my question, Brontes started to scratch her head while thinking on an answer.
"Ah… I… I-It's a secret…"
"Hahaha, alright then. Keep your secrets"
"Big Sister, why are you here? Do you want to learn more forgery from Miss Kajiya?"
"Oh? Not at all, my beautiful lady. I've come for you"
After my small compliment, Brontes started to blush in embarrassment, while looking at me with her beautiful blue eye.
"M-Me?"
I grabbed Bronte's hand and raised her, she was obviously taller than me, so when she stood up, she had to lower her head to look at me.
I looked at Brontes with a very happy smile as I guided outside the workshop. The rest of the people inside were looking at Brontes with jealously, perhaps because most of them have a crush on me and would die for a date with me.
"Hmm! Let's go!"
"B-Big Sis don't go so fast…!"
Brontes is rather simple-minded, so I prepared a simple date that would be most effective on her. She likes to eat delicious food, hunt monsters and be with me, so there wasn't anything that needed much previous preparation or was overly complicated.
However, what really made this special for her is the time to be alone with me, something that she hasn't done. When I'm with Brontes, I'm always with someone else, so it's a new experience for her to only be with me.
I was able to see a new shy side of her, where she blushed a lot for the most normal of questions.
Because I liked teasing her, while we were having dinner, I asked her several embarrassing questions about sexual positions, how does she like to be kissed, if she likes my smell, etc. Which made her almost faint several times, but she remained her composure barely.
"B-Big Sis! W-Why do you ask me such… Embarrassing things…"
"Haha! S-Sorry, it's just that my beautiful Brontes is so cute when she gets all flustered, it's hard to contain myself!"
Brontes looked at me while pouting with an even more blushed face.
"B-Big Sis…"
I quickly noticed a small change in her happy and embarrassed mood and tried to comfort her.
"Hm? A-Ah, I think I went too far, didn't I? Sorry, Brontes, I won't tease you again"
"I-Its not that… I always like it when big sis speaks to me… Even when she teases me…"
"Hm? T-Then what's wrong?"
"It's just that… I'm just happy to be with you… I-I… Sometimes try to remember my past… And small hints of them come to my mind, b-but it always gets so blurry… And sometimes, I hear the cries of my people, somewhere… B-Big sis, would you stay with me, when I remember my past, and perhaps, become someone else?"
Suddenly, Brontes began to cry a big river of tears from her blue eye while looking at the floor, I didn't even know about those dreams, and that she was so conflicted about the true nature of her past.
I need to comfort her and make her feel secure with me before things go into a worse state.
I slowly approached Brontes as I sat down on her big leg, using my hands I hugged her.
"Don't worry, I will never leave you. I will always stay at your side, you are my lovely Brontes after all, I would never forgive myself if I ever let something bad happens to you. And certainly, I will never hate you, no matter what you do to me, or anyone else"
"B-Big sis…"
Brontes looked at me with her teary eye as she blushed intensively, she approached her cute and beautiful lips to me as she gave me a passionate kiss, full of love and warmness.
The kiss wasn't lustful at all, it was a way to express her sincere love. Although it wasn't long, it felt very good. Bronte's lips are fluffy and soft, and her mouth is very warm.
When we finished kissing, I cleaned her tears as I looked over her, Brontes was now smiling with a beautiful and sincere smile.
"Big sis, I love you!"
"Hehehe, I love you too. You are one of my precious treasures"
"Hehe…"
"Now, what do you want to do, Brontes? I wouldn't mind hunting right about now"
Brontes quickly changed her mood as if nothing happened before.
"H-Hunting?! Yes, let's fight strong monsters!"
I quickly led Brontes through the skies using [Levitate] on her, I decided to go hunting on an unexplored area of the fourth layer, which resembled a small savanna. This place was mostly filled with dinosaur-like monsters, most of them of Mid Emperor level of strength.
[You gained 367100 EXP]
[LEVEL 59/70 EXP 367348/804000]
[You obtained a new Title]
[Merciless Dinosaur Killer]
We even encountered a small dungeon with two floors named [Tyrannical Raptor Lair], which had a very strong final boss named [Six-Eyed Tyrannical Raptor], a powerful Tyrannosaur-like monster with six eyes and eight limbs, it was incredibly strong and was able to use its strength jumping around while trying to eat us as if we were its dinner.
Of course, I held back quite a lot to make the fight more entertaining, and we even had some hardships, but I made sure to protect Brontes. In the end, Brontes ended up using her [Legendary] Class weapon [Storming Club of Thundering Heavens], which boosted all her attack power through the roof, finishing the raptor off with a super strong blow on its head, making it explode like a watermelon.
[You gained 654300 EXP]
[You gained one level!] [LEVEL 60/70 EXP 217648/864000]
Because of the low level of this dungeon, we were awarded only a small [Reward Gift] of [Unique] Rarity, well it's better than nothing.
Brontes also obtained the Title [Tyrannical Ruler of the Dinosaur Jungle], which granted her some kind of authority over this area of the forest, similar to my old Title [River Queen].
I obtained a small ring named [Tyrannical Raptor Copper Ring] that had the skills [Fierce Raptor Ally] which gave a small Dinosaur companion that would aid me in battle and then go back to the ring. I decided to eat it instead and see if I get the small dinosaur permanently.
Ding!
[You learned the following Skill]
[Tyrannical Raptor Copper Ring: Fierce Raptor Ally]
After eating it, I was able to summon [Fierce Raptor Ally] indefinitely, and it only cost 60 MP each, so I ended up summoning around five and swiftly killed them for tonight second dinner.
[You gained 152370 EXP]
[LEVEL 60/70 EXP 370018/864000]
We ended up grilling all the monsters we killed before alongside the boss and the ten Fierce Raptor Allies. It was a delicious feast, the boss in specific tasted incredibly flavorful and we didn't even leave a single bone. And about the summoned dinosaurs, they're similar to Familiars as they don't taste like garbage and were even more delicious. They had a softer meat which after being grilled, reminded me of a very salty chicken.
[You learned the following Skills]
[Six-Eyed Tyrant Intimidating Glare]
[Earth Shattering Eight Claws of the Dinosaur Tyrant]
[Six-Eyed Tyrant Scale Generation]
[Fierce Raptor Ally Strong and Agile Muscles]
[Fierce Raptor Ally Destructive Kick]
Phew… After eating so much, even my void belly was feeling a little bit full for the first time.
Because Brontes was very sleepy, I decided to give her all the presents I crafted for her including the [Enhanced Thunder Gem Golden Ring], which she adored.
This ring comes with various enhancements on Thunder Affinity and Strength. It also comes with a prototype [Thunder Awakening] that I made using my own skill, although it's not as strong, the skill can become stronger when the ring evolves to its next stage.
Because Brontes was very tired, we ended up sleeping the entire night on the last boss room. Of course, inside my portable house that I carry everywhere inside my Item Box. Brontes looked very cute while sleeping, and there wasn't anything more I could ask from her than being at my side.
Her warm and strong body was very comforting, I was even able to sense the small life force that our little child produced while growing inside her belly. For some time, I wished to be at her side just like this forever.
