The night went by peacefully as Yasenia's energy circulated inside the girls, and their energy nourished the dragoness.
Using Yasenia's Dual Cultivation technique eased the consolidation of their daily gains, allowing them to take long strides in their path.
Moreover, thanks to their early spiritual breakthrough, all of them besides Kali had an easy time understanding the soul and had almost no bottlenecks.
For those who don't remember, Spiritual breakthroughs only happen when you overcome all your inner demons, clearing the heart.
The mind would clear, the soul would become pristine, and a cultivator's self-understanding would increase.
Yasenia had put a lot of effort into it in the past, making all her dears face their demons and helping them solve them by showering them with her love.
Everything she did then began giving fruits now.
To advance in the Unification Realm, it wasn't necessary to have a Spiritual Breakthrough. However, it was like walking a foggy path if you didn't have one and clearing that fog if you had one.
The path was exactly the same, but if you didn't have the fog blocking your eyesight, a cultivator could avoid pits and obstacles more easily.
Kali still had heart demons, and unless she faced her assaulters as she did in the Secret Realm, she would probably never be able to get rid of all of them.
Conversely, this didn't mean that Kali would have trouble. Kali's soul purification was constant, and just by staying by Yasenia's side, she would feel the influence of the heart demons decreasing.
It was true for all of them, but Kali felt more deeply that Yasenia was like a warm, welcoming Sun that illuminated their lives and embraced them in a cocoon of boundless love and care.
The Weather Controlling Pearl she was absorbing was also helping our Fox Lady, not to mention Valeria's presence and constant effort.
In short, Kali still had some troubles, but the purification of the soul was constant and unstoppable.
The following day arrived, and they all woke up with great spirits.
The dragoness pampered them all as well as received their pampering, making their morning sweet and fulfilling.
Then, they all went to cultivate in their respective rooms.
Yasenia remembered her cultivation gathering robes, something she didn't use lately because her [Empyrean Cosmos Dress] could do the function of helping her absorb more energy much better.
These robes were a short kimono dress. The skirt barely reached mid-thigh, and the top was opened to the sides, showing a large expanse of flesh. The wide belt cinched her waist, accentuating her body curves, and it didn't cover her shoulders, making the long sleeves only cover half her arms.
However, this dropping nature while showing off her large breasts and plump thighs could only be described as criminal.
Yasenia put it on, the red and golden kimono with pink flower drawings looking perfect on her.
Yasenia dripped seductiveness while sashaying her hips with it as she walked. Every harpy that saw her slammed against a wall or other things in their way.
Some even lost control of their flight control and hit the ground.
Yet, none of them regretted it as they smiled stupidly. 'I've seen the Matriarch wearing such a dress. I can die happily.'
Kaleina looked around strangely, not understanding why these feathered people hit things left and right.
The dragoness wreaking havoc along the way reached the kitchen and began with the breakfast preparations.
Naturally, some of the cooks were there, and once the dragoness entered, the sound of cutlery hitting the ground was heard.
Yasenia blinked twice and looked at them with curiosity. "Is everything okay?"
'Matriarch, you are playing with fire walking like that!' One of the eldest gulped and nodded, her eyes glued to the jiggling and accentuated breasts.
The others were already red-faced and trying to control their bodies from reacting.
Meanwhile, the dragoness ignored the pervy birds and began thinking about breakfast. 'Hmm, what should I do today? How about rice pudding with strawberry jam?'
With an idea in mind, she began working. 'Fufufu, Evelyn, and Kali will love this. I've seen them sharing strawberry jam before, so if I combine it with delicious rice pudding, she will be enamored with the dish~.'
She wanted to make all her dears the happiest women in the world, and good food was one of the steps for it.
Yasenia realized that she was not gifted in the profession ambit.
She could indeed learn quickly, but her speed was slower than any of her lovers. Moreover, she felt the standard practices didn't fit her style or energy.
However, the dragoness wasn't someone who would give up if her talent was lacking.
Even if Yasenia was the definition of the word genius, she was also hardworking to the extremes.
All the time she wasn't pampering her dears, Yasenia worked, cultivated, processed files, and studied professions.
To be honest, Yasenia didn't really have time for herself.
She woke up, cultivated, cooked breakfast, studied, processed files, cooked launch, worked with one of her dears helping them in their profession, cooked dinner, spoke a bit with her dears, put her darlings to sleep while Dual Cultivating and helping them stabilize their foundation, and finally slept a few hours only to repeat the routine the following day.
The cooking hours were Yasenia's free time since she liked to do it as it helped her dears.
Even then, our dragoness felt fulfilled and happy.
Working to better herself and become a better woman so that her dears loved her more and she could protect them was what drove the dragoness forward.
Yasenia thought about these matters with a tender smile on her lips and as her tail wagged.
The harpies working with her in the kitchen couldn't help but give side glances to the gentle and tenderly-smiling dragoness.
They fanned their heating faces and forced themselves to look away. 'Heavens, the matriarch looks so gentle and beautiful when cooking! Ah!! I really want to take a photo! What to do? The temptation is too high! Especially with the sexy dress she wears. I can see her full butt cheeks each time she leans forward!'
Without delays and while playing a bit with the playful Kaleina, Yasenia eventually left the kitchen with the rice pudding floating around her.
The harpies felt guilty at taking a few sneaky photos and sighed in relief when the dragoness left.
Yasenia's voice reached them before they could relax. "You can share the photos, but don't spread them beyond our Clan. If they end outside, I will expel all of you or worse. Also, next time, ask for permission first."
They all straightened and shouted. "Yes, Matriarch!"
After Yasenia left, they looked at each other and shouted in excitement. "Ahh!! She allowed us to keep the photos!"
"I can't wait to share them with our sisters!"
"They will be so jealous that we can see that kind of Matriarch up close, Hohoho."
"Have you seen the behind our Matriarch is packing!? I was too focused on her peerless breasts and missed that perfect butt!"
"Aahn, I want to be her chair~."
While the harpies fantasized, Yasenia sat around the table with Kali on her lap.
Of course, the Fox Lady wouldn't complain and leaned back, allowing Yasenia to pamper her as she wanted.
The two cushions pressing on her back and the soft thighs were the best things in the world.
Andrea suddenly asked. "Are we going to the tournament that happens in two weeks?'
Yasenia asked back. "Have you informed yourself about the location?"
Andrea nodded. "It will happen in the neighboring city. We will need less than a day to travel there if we go without tools. If we fly with your boat, an hour at most is what we need."
Yasenia nodded and said, "Go, then. Why not? That was our plan either way. Tatyana, let the harpies inform the Elders from the Nine Sects, Jorey, Carbira, and the other connections we make until then. Do not be too pushy, though."
Angel pulled Yasenia's skirt. The dragoness turned her head to the side and looked at her baby. "What's wrong, love?"
Angel asked with eager eyes. "Can I participate in the Formation competition?"
Yasenia raised her eyebrow, surprised. "Have you been reading formation knowledge of this Continent?"
Angel nodded. "It is very similar. The only difference is the order of building them. I can cleanly pass as a Formation Master of this Continent."
Yasenia nodded. "Okay, then you can participate. However, remember that you are a human, so they may not accept humans. You'll also stand out quite a bit if you participate but don't worry about that. I'll say that you are my favorite slave or something and that I'm infatuated with you, which is not far from the truth. This should deter most of the people doubting us."
She looked at the others and asked. "If you want to participate in the non-combat competitions, go ahead. We can cover our strangeness under the guise of being a secluded clan and many more excuses. It is impossible to find our tracks since we literally just popped out of nowhere, so they won't be able to confirm anything."
Kali turned her head and asked. "Are you sure?"
Yasenia kissed her lips and nodded with a smile. "Go for it. Your proficiency is on a higher level. You all can pass like seniors once you show off. It is risky, but we can't act like tortoises and always hide in our shells. Moreover, we'll have built a foundation in Koran City by then, since it happens in a few weeks."
"A few weeks may be little, but for us is enough since we'll be able to build the most important formations."
They nodded, and all four of them wanted to take part. Evelyn, Angel, Andrea, and Kali.
Yasenia decided against participating to avoid showing anything about her. The more mysterious she was while revealing occasional strength, the better the image as an unfathomable senior would build up.
"Hmm, how should we plan this?"
***
While Yasenia and the others planned their things, a few things were happening across the Distancia Continent, increasing the unrest.
Many strong humans have appeared across the continent, and although some were hunted down, most escaped with unknown skills and began forming groups.
Distancia's powers still haven't paid attention to this matter, as the spotted humans weren't strong enough to endanger the Continent's balance.
Besides the few Slave houses and related installations and buildings being destroyed and having a few human slaves freed, there weren't many problems.
There were a few important ones between the humans, beast-humans, and demons that had arrived at Distancia.
***
A woman with Fate Attribute and a bow gathered humans as if they were believers. These humans naturally worshiped her, as seeing such a beautiful and powerful human female was a first. "This Continent is cursed, as the beasts that are bound to be our slaves have revealed. We shall become stronger and reverse the balance, making everything as it should be. I can see our Fate, and it is bright and boundless."
***
A man with an arm missing and heavy wounds wandered around alone, his personality much different from before as a dark aura emanated from him. "What an irony. A continent with the roles reversed. If I find that cheating slut, I might as well Kill her. I must also kill that woman who cut my arm off and stole my ring."
***
A Nature dragon soared the mountains with another five beasts and reached one of the surrounding clans. "Let's settle down and take over the beast clans of this continent. We must create a force worthy of our leader."
***
A woman with three other women was curiously looking at the outside of a city. "So many fantasy races!"
"Big sister, what do you mean by fantasy races?" Answered a cute-looking woman.
"Ah, I meant beast-humans. There are so many."
"Dear, are you still thinking of her?" A voluptuous and seductive woman hugged her back.
"Well… Not much. I've moved on, and now I have all of you."
"What will you do if you meet with her?" A cold and elegant voice was heard on the side.
She turned around and saw a bit of warmth in the woman's cold eyes, making her smile. "I don't know. But I hope to resolve our misunderstandings and maybe become friends."
"Big Sis, with your charm, you can seduce her! I don't believe there exists a woman that can resist you!"
[Host, the mission still hasn't failed. I recommend listening to your lovers.]
'I'll think about it... By the way, am I stronger than her?'
[Unable to predict. However, Host, you are able to defeat high-level Unification Realm cultivators with relative ease. You are also about to enter the third level of the Unification Realm. Even at the same level, the chances should be near 67.4543% with an error of plus-minus 10.4955%]
'You and your exact numbers….'
