A week has passed since then and a few things have changed from before. the first change was that alastair, jade and erisa shared a room every night even when they are not intimate. this change bothered alastair at first since he was used to sleeping alone till now and with the addition of the girls he needed to adjust his way of sleeping around them. ironically the main reason for his discomfort was that both girls had taken him as the worlds best body pillow and clung onto him from both of his sides leaving him stuck on his back.
The second change was similar to the first as alastair had to deal with both of the girls constantly seeking his attention now that they were officially together. this led to some funny situation like were he was swimming next to the ship and one of the girls sitting on him while enjoying the water turning him into a glorified floaty. there was also one time were alastair was testing the limits of a fire spell by channeling all of his mana into it while also keeping it the size of a softball.
While he was doing this test erisa thought it would be a good idea to surprise him by squeezing her breast onto his back suddenly which caused his attention on the magic to falter for a moment making it unstable. alastair had to throw the white fireball away quickly were it then exploded with the force of a sidewinder missile from his old world. everyone including jade glared at erisa after that since if whatever that was had gone off on the ship most of them would have died and even if they didn't the ship would definitely ship leaving them nearly completely stranded.
Needless to say both girls agreed not to bother alastair when he was practicing with magic. the third change was that alastair had finally figured of the exact amount of strength he was capable of exerting. the entire party was interested in this as they even anchored the ship to watch alastairs test. the test in question was alastair creating several blocks of ice of various sizes and weights going all the way to twenty tons. the party watched in awe as alastair went through each block systematically until he reached the seven ton one which proved to be his limit.
The party was amazed that so much strength hid in such a small body, jade and erisa were oddly turned on by the test results that devolved into the rest of the day being "wasted" in bed. as a side note alastair had spent an entire day creating a contraception spell since having a kid while the fate of the entire world rested on his shoulders seemed like a very bad idea. the biggest change however is that somehow the twins had actually made a potion that increased the perfection of the body after studying alastairs physique both during its change as well as after it.
The potion worked over time rather than all at once like alastairs change needing about a year for someone not training to reach the physique of a trained soldier and even less time if the person trains while using the potion. the twins did say that by their estimations even with training at least three decades would be needed in order for someone to reach alastairs level which killed the happiness at the potion considerably. everyone except erisa drank a potion since the she didn't feel like she needed it.
At the end of this week the party got caught in a deep fog that unnerved them since they couldn't see in front of the ship. sylvando tried to steer them clear of the fog but didn't notice that there was no wind and that the ship had in fact stopped moving. even alastair with his sharp senses didn't notice these things meaning no one knew what was going on. several hours passed since then and the clouds parted and the fog began to dissipate revealing that the ship had somehow run aground a small sort of barren island no more that sixty yards across.
Everyone disembarked from the ship to look around as well as to try and push the ship back into deeper waters. alastair obviously took care of the ship with his monstrous strength by weighing himself down with magic and pushing it from the seafloor. despite his strength doing most of the work it took at least two hours before the ship was able to sail away. in this time jade and the twins had made a deal with a pink haired mermaid to get to the bottom of the sea safely. it was a small task to go and find the mermaids beloved from lanalulu.
Alastair had noticed another ship that was stranded on the island and after an investigation learned that it was nearly sixty years old from the design of it. besides that however it merely had a large hole on its side damage wise which meant it was actually in pretty good shape. alastair marked the ship with magic so he could find it again at a later date since he wanted to claim it as his own. the party then left the small island that they had named the strand and set sail towards the east coastline.
