While all of this happened, a certain fox was concocting pills in her alchemy room.
Yasenia arrived and silently opened the door, secretly looking inside.
She saw how Kali created her pills, and there was an extra person, or well, cute dragoness present in the alchemy room.
It took a bit of time to spot her because Kaleina was moving around Kali's three thick and fluffy tails.
Kaleina spent time with the other girls when Yasenia was doing something, or she was not present, and today, Kali was the one in charge of the cute creature.
While concocting, the Lady Fox made sure to keep a part of her spiritual sense on her to avoid any dangers.
Not that she needed to because, as previously stated, the little dragon was slithering between her large fox tails.
Little Kaleina loved her fur's softness and the light earthly scent that recreated nature.
The dragoness grabbed around and moved, diving into the light green fur and exiting a few moments later.
She blinked her jewel-like golden eyes and looked at Kali's back. Then, she called her with her crispy and young cute voice.
"Kali Mama!"
Kaleina's crisp voice entered her big fox ears, making them twitch and turn in the direction of the sound.
The Fox Lady smiled and asked. "Yes, dear? Do you want something?"
After much consideration, they decided their children would call them Mama and their name, while Yasenia would be Mommy, Mother, or whatever the children were comfortable with. This way, every child would feel included, and the mothers would also feel close to each of them.
Kali finished concocting the batch of pills and put out the Alchemy fire.
Her tails moved, and she carried Kaleina into her arms. The little dragon was already as long as their torso if stretched in a line.
The juvenile snake-like length made her much prettier than the little noddle that fit snugly in their hand a month ago.
Her lustrous purple scales adorned by the developing gold-colored patterns and those moist and soft golden reptilian eyes tickled Kali's motherly instinct, making her lean downwards and kiss her little head.
"Kali Mama! Eat! Hungry!"
Kali looked at how the little claws pointed at the side, the plate with the recently baked pills. Kali shook her head with a small laugh. "You can't eat those yet, dear. You are too young."
Kaleina half understood and nodded. Then, she began trying to open Kali's dress, making the fox woman feel amused. 'Does she want me to breastfeed her? Sorry, dear, but I don't know how to produce milk yet.'
The little dragon tried to open her clothes for a bit, and not being too successful, she frowned and looked at Kali, making one crisp and beautiful exclamation. "Hungry!"
Kali laughed and summoned a bottle with Yasenia's breast milk and a bottle nipple from her spatial ring. "Here it is, dearest. It's quite late, so I don't know when your Mommy will return, but this should do until then."
She approached it to her mouth and cradled her body so that she was comfortable. "Here, love."
Kaleina used her claws to grab the bottle nipple and bit down to suck. Out of instinct, as she did with Yasenia's breast, her body coiled around the bottle, and she squeezed.
Kali blinked at the strength of her bite and how the bottle was squashed by the young dragon's strength. Moreover, the row of sharp teeth that had already grown seemed to sink into the nipple, piercing it in a few places. 'This bottle is a mid-level Spirit-Rank treasure… Does Yasenia not feel pain?'
However, she quickly remembered that although her lover's body was as soft as jelly, damaging her was another matter. She has seen her spars with Tatyana, and the times she saw Yasenia being flung away by a powerful punch from her were too many to count.
She herself has also sparred against her a few times, needing to use Valeria if she wanted to win. 'I don't understand Yasenia, really, hahaha. She has a super soft and jelly-like body, but in combat, injuring her is a nightmare.'
Her mouth became a bit dry, remembering how it felt to be hugged by her.
The knock on the door snapped her out of her thoughts, and she turned her head to the side. "Enter- ah."
Kali's heart fluttered as she saw Yasenia leaning on the door frame and looking at her with such a soft and loving gaze that her heart felt as if a jar of honey had spilled on it.
However, her makeup took her off guard, making her want to chuckle. 'That wasn't made by her, hahaha. Who did try to put makeup on her?'
A little laugh left her mouth even when she wanted to hold it back. "Who put makeup on you, dearest? Do you need me to retouch it? Those eyebrows are a bit… Haha."
Her lover smiled and walked forward, quickly reaching her side and gathering her in a gentle, soft, and sweet-smelling embrace.
Her nose couldn't help but twitch as she took her scent in and reclined in her embrace. 'She is so fragrant.'
"No need for that, honey. It was Evelyn who did it."
The mellow and deep, seductive voice caressed her hearing sense, adding to everything else, while the soft lips of the golden-eyed beauty landed on hers. 'Sigh, my life is complete~.'
Yasenia saw her little fox squinting in happiness and chuckled. "How was your day, honey?"
Kali answered, her three tails wagging as she leaned in her arms. "I just finished a batch of [Bloodline Enhancing Pills]. Do you want one? They are quite tasty."
Kali knew that Yasenia didn't need them and that the effect was so small that it was negligible, but she didn't mind feeding her lover peak-level Earth-rank candies. They actually tasted quite nice.
Yasenia knew that Kali liked feeding her pills, so she agreed. "Give me one, then."
Kali smiled and picked one, placing it in Yasenia's mouth. Her lover playfully took her fingers inside her mouth and used her long tongue to lick around them sensually.
Verdant green and golden eyes locked as Kali felt her heart accelerate with the moist and soft sensations on her fingers.
Kali snapped out of it and retrieved her fingers while feeling her face burn. "Cough. H-How are they?"
Yasenia's low laugh tingled her ears again as the dragoness leaned beside her ear and spoke with a breathy and seductive tone. "Not bad, but you are sweeter than any pill or candy I will ever try."
Kali's face burst into red, but she didn't separate from Yasenia, her tails wagging quickly behind her. Then, her face was lifted slowly, and her scarred lips met with the perfectly soft and creamy ones of her lover.
Soon, tongues began dancing as Kali eagerly kissed her gorgeous lover. 'I love her so much~.'
Kaleina finished her dinner at that moment and opened her eyes, which were closed because of her feelings of contentment while tasting her Mommy's breastmilk.
She spotted Mama Dragon doing something strange with Mama Kali and quickly exclaimed in a voice as beautiful as a tiny bell ringing. "Mommy!"
Yasenia stopped kissing and pampering her fox and used her tail to pat and caress her baby. "How have you been doing with Mama Kali, dearest?"
Kaleina smiled and crawled into Yasenia's arms. "Is Fun."
Yasenia kissed her little mouth and corrected. "Remember, baby. It is said. 'It was fun.'"
Kaleina blinked and repeated obediently. "It was fun!"
Yasenia smiled proudly and bather her face with kisses. "You are so clever, dearest."
Kali looked from withing Yasneia's arms with gentleness in her verdant green eyes. 'She is really good with children. I really can't wait to give her one.'
Valeria spoke in her mind. 'Why not ask for one, Kali?'
Kali answered. 'It's still too early. I will do so when Yasenia feels things are relatively safe.'
Valeria chuckled. 'With how overprotective she is, maybe she will only feel safe after she takes over the continent.'
Kali internally laughed, finding it a very possible option. 'It doesn't matter, really. We are a bit young still.'
Valeria agreed. 'That's true. I think you all should at least be a century old before getting children.'
Kali muttered. 'One hundred years… What strength do you think we'll have by then?'
Valeria answered. 'Hm… Taking into account your current speed of cultivation and the rate it is increasing… I would say about level four of the Dantian Spiritualization Realm.'
Kali blinked. 'Is that a lot?'
Valeria chuckled. 'Geniuses in the Sky Continent take at least one hundred years to break through into the Dantian Spiritualization Realm. There are people who literally take one thousand years or even five. I'm being a bit generous by taking into account Yasenia being your lover.'
Kali nodded. 'I see. Cultivation slows down tremendously as we rank up, it seems.'
Valeria nodded. 'That's right. '
Yasenia turned toward Kali and saw her looking at them but with her mind elsewhere. "Honey, what's in your mind?"
Kali's eyes refocused and smiled, speaking about what Valeria said. Yasenia nodded. "I see. Well, I'll see what I do. Right now, we truly have more important matters pending."
Kali looked at Kaleina and asked. "By the way, dear. What's the difference between one and more children?"
Yasenia laughed softly. "Well, the problem is the thing that happens before the child is born, honey."
Kali coughed, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Right. Being pregnant is not too safe."
Yasenia kissed her while laughing. "You are so cute sometimes, honey."
The three spent about half an hour together.
Later, Yasenia cleaned the make-up and made dinner, informing her dears and the leaders to gather with her to speak while dining.
These people were Coraline, Finnegan, Drasha, Luscia, and Ghana.
Once they all gathered, Yasenia began explaining what she had learned and a few things regarding the core of the Astral Sky Clan.
Ghana heard Yasenia's arrangements and asked. "Is it really necessary to substitute these harpies? I think they are doing fine currently."
Yasenia nodded. "Yes. They are good. But I think these lamias can do a better job. You are not aware, but their skill and strength are higher than theirs. I didn't change them at first because of personal reasons, but I've been a bit unjust to the rest of the clan, focusing too much on one race instead of a whole."
Ghana nodded and didn't complain. "I see."
Coraline asked. "If my lobster clan people are skilled, will they also be promoted?"
Yasenia commented. "They will. However, they will all have to swear a few oaths if they want to work on core matters about the clan."
Finnegan frowned. "Yasenia, aren't you being a bit rude?"
Yasenia blinked and looked at him with a smile. "Hm… Well, then let one of my people work directly under Lady Coraline and see all the documents she has to deal with."
Finnegan opened his mouth, but no sound came out, being quite speechless. Coraline rolled her eyes. "Don't listen to him, Yasenia. Do as you see fit."
Yasenia nodded. "I will."
Andrea suddenly asked. "By the way, what's up with Tengliu?"
Yasenia remembered. 'Right, I didn't tell them about what happened in detail because I didn't want them to worry while I was with her.'
Yasenia quickly explained it. She was already calm about it, especially after blowing off some steam with the Brilliant Auction House.
While speaking, Evelyn, Kali, Andrea, and Angel scowled at Tengliu's attempt. But after hearing the whole tale, they relaxed slightly.
They understood that things were already solved, and throwing a tantrum right now would do good to nobody.
While the adults spoke, Ebirah was squatting beside Kaleina, her long pink hair dropping down and her beautiful finger poking at the little dragon while giggling. Her gleaming pink lobster tail slapped the ground in glee.
"Little Kaleina, you can't catch my finger~."
Kaleina growled and attacked the disobedient finger, seeing it as prey.
They looked with normal expressions, but suddenly, Ebirah felt her finger being locked in place for a second. She was stunned, and although the lock only lasted less than a second, she stopped for longer, and Kaleina managed to grab the finger and bite. "Hehe, caught!"
Ebirah's eyes widened. "Little Kaleina, what did you do?"
The seniors around were stunned, and Yasenia smiled and explained. "That's her innate space attribute control. Her affinity for that attribute is honestly the highest I've ever seen."
Drasha asked, doubtful. "Then… Did that newborn just lock space for a brief second to catch Ebirah's finger?"
Yasenia nodded calmly. Kaleina has been doing these small tricks occasionally with her tail. To reward and incentivize her, Yasenia allowed herself to be caught each time she did them.
As she usually did, her tail moved and coiled around her little daughter and brought her to her arms. "Baby, you are so talented. Here, your favorite milk candy~."
Luscia sniffed and was surprised. "It smells so sweet. What milk did you use?"
Yasenia answered normally. "Mine."
There was a small moment of silence.
Andrea coughed and commented, breaking the awkward atmosphere. "Well, we finally have everything set up. Isn't that right, Yasenia?"
Yasenia placed Kaleina on the table, and her tail picked Evelyn up, placing her on her lap. "You are right. This busy month has finally gone by."
Coraline asked. "What are your plans, little Yasenia?"
She placed her chin on Evelyn's shoulder and pondered. "Probably, open a branch in the city near the soon-to-be-opened secret realm."
"Which one?"
Yasenia clarified. "At the auction house, I learned about…"
Coraline exclaimed. "Oh, that one. Dolgor City is quite far from our home, to be honest. Will Ebirah also enter?"
Yasenia nodded. "Andrea will come, so naturally, Ebirah will follow."
Finnegan asked. "Is that secret realm opening soon?"
Coraline nodded. "Yes, the one Yasenia wants to go to has a limit in cultivation, though. If I remember correctly, it only accepted low-level Epoch Core and below the last time it opened. If you enter there, you'll reveal your strength, Yasenia."
Yasenia shrugged. "It doesn't matter. By then, I have confidence in having enough strength to protect myself against Epoch Core people."
Luscia lifted an eyebrow. "It opens in about five years, no? Are you sure?"
Yasenia nodded confidently. "At least I won't be helpless against low-level Epoch Core. Above that, it will still be difficult, but them instantaneously killing me without knowing what hit me will be difficult, giving me enough time to maneuver."
After conversing about specific plans, Yasenia said goodbye to the seniors and went to bed with her dears.
**********************************************
Evelyn: Five years…
Cecile: A lot of time to train.
Tatyana: It will go by quicker than you think.
Yasenia: I wonder what strength we will achieve?
Author: There are a lot of treasures from hundreds of chapters ago that you all will ingest between a lot of things, so it will be quite a power-up.
Angel: Looking forward to it~.
Author: Yep. Well, I summon you!
Ma Alondra Morillo: Hello!
Andrea: Hello! How are you doing?
Ma Alondra Morillo: Good~. I'm here to ask Yasenia something.
Yasenia: Oh? Ask away.
Ma Alondra Morillo: So… What if the Girls are against or dislike the future members of the Harem? What will you do?
Yasenia: Future members?
Ma Alondra Morillo: Yes.
Yasenia: I don't have plans to have extra future members in the harem, to be honest.
Ma Alondra Morillo: But… What would happen?
Yasenia: Well, in the hypothetical case, I would quickly deny their entry and part ways amicably. If my current dears are uncomfortable with someone, I will not force it.
Ma Alondra Morillo: What if they want to force it?
Yasenia: Then, she will prove why my dears didn't like her, and I would be ruthless depending on the offense she had committed.
Ma Alondra Morillo: I see.
Yasenia: Anything else, dear?
Ma Alondra Morillo: Nope. Thanks!
Author: Well, then, this is today's chapter end. Bye-bye, little lurkers!
