Once I was finished explaining everything up to the point where I had been rocketed out of this tree, everyone went quiet. No matter who you were, this was a lot to take in one shot, and I was just glad that there were no silly questions.
"So you saved her life, and you died, but somehow you were brought back to life by an AI called Orphus. He is the only good AI, but he is untrustworthy since his only reason to help is to be entertained. Do I have everything so far?" Melody asked.
"Don't forget the thousands of villains like the one that wrecked the city!" Katie added.
"Or the one coming in two days!" Anya chimed in, and I nodded.
Leave it to the girls to make everything sound as bad as it really was. I had been trying to sugarcoat things in my own head, but hearing it from the girls made me think.
"Looks like we will have a lot of work ahead of us over the next two days. That also means we will have to get the three of you and the rest of the girls ready, like Sofia," I said with a grin, and all the girls nodded at me with smiles.
"Don't you worry about that. We will make sure that you have time with all of us over the next two days, but there is one question I have. Who is number eight?" Melody asked, and I shook my head.
"Nope, none of that right now; there are more than enough women already!" I growled, but all the women were giving me serious looks that I didn't like.
"You can't waste that power!" Anya said, and the other girls nodded, and I groaned.
I had no idea who to use it on, and I was just trying to have a bath, not pick my final Harem member. It was also not like I was going to go pick some random girl to fill the role.
"I don't have anyone in mind yet, but I guess if you girls see someone that you think would be a good match, I will entertain the idea. Still, I don't want to force this," I said, and the girls all dropped it.
"Well, at least you can have a good sleep tonight again with Amy. I am sure that she won't keep you up too late, but who knows! The quiet girls are sometimes the ones with the most freak in them!" Melody said with a laugh.
"Yes, I should get to that. If you guys are hungry, ask Sofia, and she will grow some strawberries and nuts. Tomorrow we are going to have to look for more food plants to scan, so we have more variety of food for everyone," I explained as the girls pulled back from me.
"I think that it would be good if we found some cotton plants and other types of plants to make clothing. We could also use some towels and face cloths, and we are going to need some, umm, women's supplies," Katie said with a cough at the end, but I knew what she was talking about.
"That is true, but I can already make pads and toilet paper that are stocked in all rooms. What we will need is soaps and such. I also need to talk to the trees about using fire. I have been pretty apprehensive about it, but I am sure that I could work something out. We would only be using it for cooking since we don't need heat," I mused as I stood from the water, the wind catching my body, blowing the water from me.
"Yeah, we will brainstorm with the girls. You go down to your room and relax. We will send Amy to you after," Melody said, and I nodded, bending down to give each one a kiss before I left.
Once I was back down the stairs, I turned right and headed down the hallway to my room at the end. I wanted to face north so I would be able to look down at the entrance to keep track of what was going on when I could.
There were a few doors open, and I hurried down to my room since I was completely naked. Not that I cared if the girls saw me naked, but some of them might have extreme to violent reactions that I would prefer to avoid.
I made it to my room, but there were no lights on when I entered. I clapped the light one and looked around the room, but my eyes were pulled to my nice big bed.
"Umm, can we turn the light back off?" Amy asked me shyly as she held my old blanket up to her chin.
I blinked, not expecting that she would be in here already, and it looked like she was ready to go if that blanket was any hit. Still, this girl had been so nervous the night before, so she must be a virgin; I would have to keep that in mind.
"Hmm? Don't you want to go have a bath with the girls first?" I asked, but Amy shook her head.
"I, umm, can go after, or maybe you can come with me? I know that you just had a bath, but I am too nervous about bathing with the others right now. They all treat me so nice, but I still feel like an outsider around them. Besides Sofia, all the rest of the girls seem really close friends," Amy explained, and I clapped my hands, making the lights go out.
"Yeah, I don't mind at all," I said as I walked over to the bed, crawling into it beside Amy, who was completely naked.
I wrapped my arms around Amy's trembling body and pulled her down into the bed with me, pulling her to my chest. I placed my hand on the back of her head and pressed Amy's face into my chest, and her trembling slowed.
