The night quickly fell as we both got up to have dinner. Our stomachs were rumbling due to us skipping lunch so we made our way down to the throne room.
Arriving, my other 2 wives were already sitting down at the table while the maids started to bring out the food. We had a mix of vegetables and meat from Aqua Boas to pick from. They also brought out a new thing that seemed like a fruit.
Biting into it a sweetness filled my mouth as I couldn't help but smile in excitement. Devouring the apple-shaped fruit in front of me I pick another one from the bowl.
We all enjoyed our dinner while we discussed who I would have a date with tomorrow. Kumo and Homura argued until Kumo gave in because she got to spend quite a while with me during the Canyon of Volcanoes trip.
Finishing our dinner we made our way to the changing room where we all changed into nightgowns. I left the silver ring where I saw our newly acquired jewelry. They were all hung on the wall or placed on a desk under some of the shelves.
Making our way to the bedroom, we all enjoyed ourselves and gave into our lust. This time when they pinned me down and all enjoyed themselves I was able to last longer due to [Strong Libido]... or that's at least what I thought. They did it much longer than last time making the skill useless once I ran out of stamina.
[Day 24]
"Uhhhhhhh,"
I was currently, once again on Aika's back on our way to the bath. As we took a dip in the bath my muscles instantly relaxed, soothing some of the soreness from last night. We bathed while Homura massaged me to get rid of the remaining soreness.
Leaving the bath we wrapped ourselves in towels and made our way back to the changing room. Drying ourselves, the maids then helped us put on some dresses that weren't much different from yesterday but this time I and Aika put on our jewelry including our ring pair. I also noticed before I left with Homura that Aika's clothes weren't there.
"I should ask later, when I take Homura there," I mumble to myself.
This time I held Homura's hand as we made our way out of the castle and decided to have breakfast. Going to the same restaurant as yesterday since I and Aika talked about how good it was which sparked some curiosity in Homura.
We ordered something different today which was Barbed Tail Bee meat with a basic salad. Our other order was also a salad but had a vegetable similar to potatoes in it. I asked to have the same waitress as yesterday which the owner quickly complied.
"Yo,"
"H-hello, is there a reason you wanted to see me today?" the waitress asks.
"No, it's just I liked your service yesterday so I thought maybe I could have you again," I said.
"T-thank you,"
"You don't have to be so stiff, just relax and talk to me like how you would with a friend," I say.
"O-ok,"
Homura enjoyed the meal as I tipped the waitress again with 1 obsidian coin. Soon after we left the restaurant and proceeded towards Aimis clothing store. The employees panicked but I calmed them down and just told them that we were just there to get Homura some clothes.
Seeing the rows of clothes I noticed Homura's tails were wagging back and forth in excitement.
"You can pick three sets of clothes," I say.
Homura nodded her head as she seemed to dive into the isles going back and forth to decide which clothes match each other. Eventually, she picked three sets of clothes including some bras that she placed on the front counter to order.
Paying the respectable price, the cashier took the clothes to the back to get ready to deliver them to my castle.
"Oh yeah, Aika's clothes weren't here this morning,"
"Forgive us, we haven't had anybody available to deliver you clothes, since everybody is busy," says another cashier who had a much calm demeanor.
"That's fine, just make sure it arrives by tomorrow," I say.
"As you wish," the cashier replies.
Leaving the store we decide to head to the jewelry store since Homura isn't interested in any weapons. Seeing the very outgoing building we made our way in where we saw Ava with a bored face on her look. It seemed not many people were visiting her store today so I decided to talk to her and let Homura pick out the jewelry she wanted.
"Are you that bored with so few customers," I say while walking up to the front counter with Ava at it.
"Oh, my queen, welcome... Yeah, yesterday was a busy day, but it now equals out with an arid day," Ava says sinking in her chair.
"I like this. I can talk with somebody like a friend who is not my wife," I say while leaning on her desk.
"Really… So how many wives do you have?" Ava asks, trying to continue the conversation.
"Only 3, Kumo, Homura, and Aika who you saw yesterday," I said.
"I've heard of Kumo, the citizens say that you guys were together even before you started your kingdom,"
"Well... so was Homura, but yeah Kumo was my first servant. Without her I would've still been roaming the Mountain of Twilight, probably dead," I say.
Seeing that Homura is not done picking out her jewelry I decided to check my status to see the bonus of my new ring.

…
Seems like jewelry that doesn't have an enchant or gives stat boosts doesn't count as equipment.
"I would like these,"
Hearing a voice coming from beside me I deactivated my status and saw Homura who placed down 4 pieces of jewelry.
Ah, I forgot to tell her that the limit is 3… well whatever she only got 1 more.
Homura placed down 4 bracelets, 2 for her ankles, and 2 for her wrists. They were made of a new type of stone I haven't seen before.
[Ore - Lapis Lazuli]
[A rare ore found throughout the [Mountain of Twilight]. This ore is so rare outside the [Mountain of Twilight] that this ore is sometimes used as a currency. This ore is mainly used for jewelry for other countries that don't use it as currency.]
"Alright I'll be coming here tomorrow, make sure these arrive by tonight," I ordered.
"As you wish," Ava replies, starting to wrap the jewelry in a piece of animal hide.
Leaving the store, it was noon so we decided to go hunting. Homura has been itching to hunt with me since I came back so I thought I should fill that wish.
…
"Phew," I say while wiping the existent sweat off my forehead.
It is currently late in the afternoon as I and Kumo are hunting in the [Forest of Poison]. We've been practicing our teamwork while I've also been practicing some of my newest skills such as [Magma Secretion], [Magma Control], [Liquid Fire Secretion], and [Fires Will].
Using magma was hard, but once you got the hang of it and went with the flow, you can destroy practically anything in your path. I was able to pierce holes through the tree with it like a hot knife through butter.
I also practiced manipulating my fire using [Liquid Fire Secretion] since whenever I used [Fires Will] on Homura's flames she started to feel nauseous and get dizzy.
The fire I secreted never really burnt anything until it leaked into a prey's body, then it would do massive damage, burning it from the inside out.
"Let's continue the hunt until the sunsets. Even though there hasn't been any new prey for me to gain skills, we are still eating their dead bodies for snack and lunch so we can continue without going back," I say before hearing a not-so nostalgic sound.
ROOOOOAAAAR
