The following day, they all woke up refreshed.
The Yang energy flowed in them like a gentle wave of warmth, making them feel lazy and not wanting to wake up from the bed.
Angel was incredibly comfortable as her face was buried deep in Yasenia's cleavage. Her waist area touched with Yasenia's.
Yasenia patted Angel's butt with a laugh. "Baby, it's time to wake up and go to the tournament. Today it is your and Andrea's turn."
Angel mewled and kissed the comfortable breast pillow. "I don't want to wake up~."
Yasenia's eyes were tender as her hand caressed the golden threads on Angel's head. "My sleepy baby doesn't want to wake up?"
Angel hummed in agreement as her eyes closed and relaxed again.
Yasenia slowly caressed her back as her other dears approached and gave her good-morning kisses.
"We can delay ten more minutes, okay, baby?"
Angel nodded with a smile and rested her body on Yasenia with a blissful smile.
Yasenia heard a squeaky yawn at the side and turned her head, meeting a pair of sleepy golden eyes. She leaned forward a bit and kissed Kaleina's body softly. "Good morning, love."
Kaleina blinked one eye and then the other, still half-asleep. Then, she slithered toward Yasenia and nestled beside her, hugging her face with her little dragon arms.
The others stood up from the bed and saw Yasenia being hugged by Angel and Kaleina, making them laugh.
Tatyana commented. "I'll cook today. Stay a bit longer in bed if you want, little treasure."
Yasenia was pleasantly surprised and nodded. "Thanks, Mom!"
Yasenia stayed in bed with her big and small babies, caressing them and pampering them.
When breakfast arrived, Yasenia slowly sat up and used her tail to place Kaleina on top of her head. Her arms went around Angel and grabbed her by the butt, lifting and carrying her away.
Yasenia was still naked, so she slowly materialized her [Empyrean Cosmos Dress].
Angel still had her eyes closed and her face buried in Yasenia's neck, her arms and legs going around Yasenia.
They all sat at the table, and Yasenia fed Angel and Kaleina while discussing with her dears about today's objectives.
Angel still had her eyes closed, but her mouth obediently opened each time Yasenia whispered to her to do so.
'So delicious~.'
Meanwhile, Kaleina was coiled around Yasenia's right breast, squeezing it with her body.
Angel was sitting sideways, leaning on Yasenia's left side, so she didn't bother the little dragon. Not only that, Angel would, from time to time, half-open her eyes and caress Kaleina.
Meanwhile, the little dragon's mouth latched onto the nipple and sucked with delight, drinking that delicious and nutritious milk.
Yasenia felt peaceful, and her mood was relaxed. 'Mornings like these are beautiful.'
The others gently looked at Yasenia's relaxed expression, knowing how much their dragoness liked mornings.
Especially the ones when Angel and Kaleina acted like spoiled babies around her.
If it wasn't too strange, they doubted whether Yasenia would help Angel even go to the toilet. 'She spoils Angel rotten, hahaha.'
After the relaxed morning period, Yasenia and her dears were preparing to go when Yasenia commented. "You two will protect Luna while we are outside. If you spot any of your sisters or person you know, approach Evelyn and inform her. Remember not to get agitated no matter what you see. The slaves of this world are treated far worse than the ones in Sky Continent."
"Yes, Lady Yasenia!"
"Also, call me Matriarch. You are part of my Astral Sky Clan, so you should refer to me like that when we are outside."
The two S.L.U.T members answered energetically. "Understood, Matriarch."
Yasenia looked at Luna, who was still out of sorts, and spoke. "Luna, follow them and Evelyn closely."
Luna looked at Yasenia and faintly nodded. Then, she took a step forward and grabbed Evelyn's dress again.
They all went out, and then Yasenia met with the elders of the nine sects, Jorey and Carbira.
They pointedly realized the new additions to the group.
Elder Song asked curiously. "Who are those two?"
Yasenia answered easily. "They are two interesting finds I got from the seniors I met yesterday. They know my love for interesting and talented female humans, so they presented them to me."
Elder Song frowned, feeling a bit jealous that the woman she liked had gained two new bed warmers.
Jorey was more playful with Yasenia, so she asked, her black fox ears flickering. "Lady Yasenia, is your stamina enough to play with all of them? You have quite a few women."
Yasenia smiled seductively and lifted Jorey's chin with her finger. "You are underestimating a dragon's stamina, Lady Jorey. Do you want to taste it? I swear I can make you unable to leave bed for a month straight."
Many people blushed at Yasenia's tone.
Jorey's tail was even wagging. "Really? I-I don't mind giving it a try…."
Yasenia laughed and flicked her forehead softly. "If you didn't realize I was teasing you, you are still too innocent."
Jorey touched her forehead and pouted. "I wanted to give it a try. Who knows, maybe you go ahead with it out of impulse."
"Right. Let's go. We are a bit late."
Carbira approached and commented. "Lady Yasenia, will you participate in the competitions?"
Yasenia shook her head. "This tournament is for juniors. However, my adorable humans have two competitions today."
Carbira was shocked. "The humans?"
Yasenia nodded. "You were doing business yesterday, so you don't know. However, I registered them for the competition. Evelyn managed to reach the twenty-first position."
Carbira's protruding eyes straightened in surprise. "Twenty-first!? That's impressive!"
Yasenia laughed, finding Carbira cute.
Elder Fu, the blacksmith senior, spoke with provocation. "Lady Yasenia, blacksmithing is one of the main professions of our continent, and the competition is much fiercer. I wouldn't become too excited and think that she can reach a high position."
Yasenia turned her head and grabbed Andrea's arm with her tail, pulling her toward her. Then, she hugged her toned arm and smiled. "She is the one participating, Elder Fu. Unless your disciples can create better weapons than the ones you received from us, don't dream of overcoming my Andrea."
Andrea kept walking like usual, her light green eyes showing pampering toward Yasenia.
Elder Fu was stunned. "This competition is for those below seventy years old, Lady Yasenia. Don't tell me this human is younger than that and with such a high mastery!"
Yasenia separated from Andrea and puffed her chest with apparent pride, sending them into a jiggling spree no one missed.
'My heavens, bouncing around so much should be illegal.'
Yasenia proudly stated. "Of course, Andrea is younger than that. My Andrea is very talented!"
Andrea laughed. 'I want to hug and kiss her until she purrs.'
Elder Fu couldn't help but appreciate her and looked at Andrea. "Human woman, no, slave Andrea, if what your Matriarch said is true, you have my sincere respect."
Andrea maintained a calm disposition and paid her respect. "Gaining recognition of a senior beast-human is something to celebrate. I really appreciate it. It is all thanks to the Matriarch's care for us, her slaves."
Elder Mao, the one from the Golden Body sect, asked. "Who is participating besides Andrea?"
Yasenia used her tail again to, this time, pull Angel into her embrace, making her face land right between her breasts. "Little Angel is the one. She will participate in Formations in the morning before the blacksmithing competition. She is also extremely talented."
They couldn't help but be amazed. Jorey exclaimed. "Her? I thought she was just a cuddly human you had for hugging."
Yasenia chuckled. "Well, you are not wrong. My little Angel is very comfortable to hug."
They could see it as Angel's head squeezed between Yasenia's breasts. 'We can see it. Her low height is just right to fall there without any extra actions.'
Their eyes landed on the tall dragon woman, and they smiled wryly. 'Well, most women would land there with her height.'
While discussing these matters, they arrived at the last spot in the stands and waited for the announcer.
Yasenia spotted the seniors she met yesterday and nodded at them with a polite smile.
Of the seven, the serpent woman, the tiger kin, and the dog woman nodded back. The others ignored Yasenia and continued speaking with their guests.
Yasenia didn't mind and moved her gaze away.
Elder Song looked over and was surprised. "Are they the ones you met?"
Yasenia nodded. "Is there anything wrong?"
Elder Song shook her head. "That woman is a senior from my clan. If you could get along with her, I will have to call you senior, hahaha."
"So, the little Song she spoke about, was it you?"
"Right, she usually calls me like that. Well, she brought me up, so I'm accustomed."
Yasenia chuckled. "Either way, you can continue calling me as you want."
Elder Song acted a bit coy and muttered. "How about sister Yasenia?"
Yasenia froze a moment.
The girls frowned, knowing that this serpent woman was again trying to close the distance between Yasenia and her.
Yasenia thought in an instant. 'Should I accept? However, accepting her demand to call me sister may be too much. I don't really want that close of a relationship since it can get out of hand quickly. Cutting her off now can damage the relationship, but I think it's better than giving this person false hopes. In the future, she may go crazy because of love and land me in deep trouble.'
Time began ticking again, and Yasenia laughed softly, smiling at Elder Song. "We haven't known each other for a long time, Elder Song. Let's move slowly and reserve this way of calling each other for when we know each other better."
Yasenia continued. "As an experienced woman, you should know that quick familiarity may change into enmity if we are not careful. I hope you can continue to call me Lady Yasenia."
Elder Song was disappointed but nodded quickly. She understood that this was a way for Yasenia to tell her they were not close yet and also to keep her honor intact.
Elder Song's disciples were surprised and also not surprised at their master's confession.
They had been expecting it after seeing how their Master treated Yasenia. However, they somehow also expected Yasenia to reject Elder Song. As artists with experience in telling deep emotions, they felt that although Yasenia looked approachable and friendly, her heart was truly too cold.
The announcer appeared and began explaining today's plans, saving the whole group from the awkward silence after Yasenia's indirect rejection.
"Welcome to the second day of the Tournament! Yesterday, we got exciting classification matches to see who is the strongest junior, a Spirit Tailoring winner, and a Talisman Mastery winner!"
"Today, we'll continue the combat matches until we are left with the last twenty contestants! We'll also see how our young Formation Masters and Blacksmiths have developed. I can't wait to see the surprises our juniors will come up with!"
"For combat, go to stadiums one to ten, depending on your group. For Formations, please go to stadium eleven. The rules will be explained in place."
"Finally, welcome to the second day of the tournament, and have a great day!"
Yasenia and the others were already in stadium eleven, so they didn't need to move around.
After waiting for a few minutes, the judge for formations appeared. Her race gave Yasenia a surprise, as it was too scarce.
