By the time Alexis had snapped out of his strange trance, he was now outside of Bunker 7. For some reason, this bunker even in the game had zero stories behind it, likely a forgotten plot point in the story.
"Well, let's go see my cute demi-human girls."
The strange language, the shadow of himself hidden in the dark with strange grey hair, did unsettle him. But for now, he had avoided this event's death flag, although it was the easiest to avoid. Usually, the hero would meet the traitor first, but she wasn't a full Deva so early in the game. He thought this was another change from the game to real life.
The strangely scientific-like door for a fantasy setting put him off, as the loud beeping and door opening brought him into a common room inside. It seemed the girls had really overworked. There were almost 50 commoners here, mostly families with children. It made him feel proud of the girl who could have easily died otherwise.
"Did I do this? Was this change brought by my efforts and their will to change?"
Honestly, this scene made him feel a warmth inside his chest that was long absent. But sadly, it fizzled quickly as the black substance corroded it completely into negative and aggressive emotions.
"Ah, hello everyone!" Alexis greeted the scared people with a soft voice.
Just as he was about to speak once more, a large black and white woman collided with his body, covering his lips with hers as an erratic tongue began to invade inside his mouth, "What? What's happening? Why was he being kissed!"
Of course, he wasn't going to let a cooked chicken get away. He wrapped his tongue around hers and stopped her from using her tongue like a complete amateur. He then wrapped her in his arms and led her slowly into a more passionate and wet kiss.
"Hah!? Get off my man, you thieving badger!"
Before things could get worse, his hands were inside her loose-fitting battle outfit, playing with her slightly large, erect nipples. Suddenly, her body was pulled away and slammed into a wall. As the non-elemental [Mana bolt] hit Momo in the flank, the caster jumped into his arms and replaced her.
"Alexis!!!"
Fran was much more experienced, the kiss becoming extremely passionate as she took all her fears and worries from today and tried to forget them inside Alexis' arms. The surroundings didn't know what to do. Two people were now kissing each other so intently that their tongues were down one another's throat.
"Uhm, Fran..."
"Don't you think we can do that later?"
When she was interrupted again, Fran gave the person a quick look before frowning at the words Celia used. She then took a closer look at the red-faced girl with wings who was fidgeting on the black sofa while Momo was still stuck in the wall.
"What do you mean by "we," Celia?"
"Hmph!"
Alexis patted her on the butt before removing Momo from the wall and seating himself next to Celia. His body bounced on the high quality sofa cushions before pulling Fran onto his lap and soothing her.
"Now now, you're not a cat, so stop acting like one. Lets first tell everyone the current situation. "
With a slight parting of his throat, Alexis then proceeded to tell the people present about how many students and townspeople had died valiantly fighting the undead waves. Now that the final wave had finished, it was almost time to leave.
However, he desperately insisted they wait for official notice, wanting to avoid letting the people his three girls saved die so soon. On the mana screen, the death toll was still slowly rising.
Thankfully, most of the people here were full families; their older relatives would be sent back closer to the capital. Alexis began to take a moment's rest, his tired eyes quickly dozing off with a light snoring being produced. All the people could see that his extreme exhaustion had taken over, and lowered their noise slightly.
"Hey, Celia, do you want to have sex with Alexis?"
"NAH!?"
"Shhhhhh! Don't wake my darling. "
"Hey Momo, who's your damned darling?"
"Mother said, the first man to taste your nectar is your darling!"
The commoners were put at ease by the girls' bickering over a boy. Since the students, who were the main fighting force, were finally able to show some relaxation, they too started to loosen the tightly wound strings. Some of the mothers and wives began to organise a large meal and bath for everyone.
While the males went into the artificial garden and started chopping some firewood and setting the tables, some of the more savvy males helped with the cooking and scents in the bath to promote relaxation for the tired girls and Alexis.
"I cannot believe the prince fought so hard for us!"
"Wasn't he said to be completely trash by the Crown Prince?"
"I might have to reconsider the plan to abandon the second and third princes!"
Several of the lone nobles found the show today amazing. The agents of the Crown Prince were useless, yet a single group of girls brought up by the "trash" prince in a few weeks surpassed all of his "superior" parties. This small conversation would spark a major change in the political world of Garland, as the three nobles are all large families in their respected trades.
"In the future, we should encourage our children to interact with Prince Alexis more!"
"Agreed, he seems to be more suitable for a higher role. His interactions and manipulations with not only the other nobles but the commoners are applaudable. "
"Look, they've completely lost their fear and nerves and become productive from seeing his fake sleep."
Alexis felt his lips twitch slightly. These nobles were always so good at watching people. It was true that he was in a meditative state. This is something Mavis taught him in their daily training. Sometimes you will be unable to sleep. This method allows you to get roughly 30% of the effects of normal sleep. But during times of combat and war, it's a great asset.
Whilst Alexis was trying to restore his body as much as possible, in the case of another unwritten scenario, Fran, Momo, and Celia were all chatting. Their debate had gotten extremely heated as the two girls beside Fran were bright red and covering their faces to hide any reactions.
"Tonight, if you come to my room, I'll let you join in, just this once!"
Momo's eye lit up as she instantly agreed, her badger's tail swaying vigilantly, definitely not allowing this chance to be passed up!
"Un"
Celia, on the other hand, was completely beet red, only realising what the sentence meant after a few moments, letting out a cry of confusion.
"Eh!?"
However, her head betrayed her with a subtle nod, her eyes darting between Alexis's face and crotch.
"Hehehe, our little Celia was always a closet pervert. She'll finally see the cucumber from that morning!"
Fran was enjoying the superiority over these girls, but today's fight made her realise that if it was just her alone, without Momo protecting her and attracting the enemies' aggro and Celia supporting the pair with her abilities, it was likely she'd have died to the undead hordes today. Fran trailed her gaze over to Alexis, a look devoid of all lust, simply awe and affection, as she thought to herself.
"You knew, didn't you, the reason you insisted we go together no matter how inconvenient it was?"
"You always stressed the point of us being a trio."
With a loving smile, Fran hugged his chest tightly, placing a light peck on his neck, before climbing off his lap to join in to help the other women cook today's dinner. which was likely to be a large stew and curry for those that wanted it.
____________________
Dinner had now long passed, and the death toll finally began to slowly stop increasing. Many of the lost had been found using location magic. The people inside this bunker almost felt forgotten by the world. However, Alexis could feel it. That woman was searching for him desperately.
"Mavis can be so cute sometimes..."
"It's almost like she's looking after her little brother or something Haha"
Alexis then turned his bracelet locating function back on, whilst checking the condition of his two lovely women, currently recovering in the summoner world. Unfortunately, because they both went back with damage exceeding a certain amount, they were forced into sleep.
"But it was pretty fun having three demi-girls wash me in the bath..."
So if he encountered Claire now instead of earlier, he'd likely die slowly from her incredibly quick assaults, even though he was not stronger than ever before. There was no protagonist aura that would generate some random item that would reduce his 24 hour lockout.
THUD!
"Alexis!""
Mavis charged in. The poor innocent door was vaporised as she flew inside like a tempest, smashing into him and hugging him tightly. Honestly, she was worried sick because of her punishment. Her ability to fight was severely hindered, so much so that the headmistress forbade her to leave until the final wave ended, almost driving her crazy as her tracking jewel couldn't find any traces of Alexis or his battles.
"You idiot! I thought you were dead!"
Others found this scene strange because she still appeared to be in her forties. Only Alexis could see a twenty-something woman almost sobbing, holding him in her arms with extreme worry.
"I'm sorry. Okay, don't be so angry..."
"There was a reason. During the initial waves, I was stuck inside the dungeon, and upon leaving I was assaulted by a 'Deva.'"
Alexis whispered the name of the enemy, because if that name was heard, it would cause more panic than a simple dungeon wave. The Deva were a race created purely by followers of the goddess of evil and chaos, which relished in debauchery, murder, and profanity.
"What!? Are you completely sure? Were you not mistaken? " Mavis spoke in a slightly concerned voice. If the Deva were already beginning to show, then she had even less time than she thought, planning to expend her very lifeforce to increase his training time to 12 hours in that timeless world.
"Yes, here, take a look!"
He opened his inventory slightly, showing a severed hand still filled with a thick green blood even after its owner's death, trying desperately to regenerate.
"May I take this, Alexis? I have a report to make to the headmistress."
Alexis placed the item into Mavis' item pouch. After she was here, he could finally sleep for real. He heard the cries of several women, but was unable to even explain why his body was far too exhausted more than he even realised.
Mavis' soft young voice whispered inside his ear.
"You did well today, Alexander. Rest well. Congratulations on passing your first death flag."
