Chapter 2 - Chapter 02

The morning light spills through the bay window in the bedroom. Despite Delta's drones having changed the sheets twice now, the room still reeks of sex. I'm looking through configuration options for the Grand Manor on my Company smartphone when Yayoi emerges from the bathroom, freshly showered and dressed in her school uniform, a faint blush on her cheeks.

"D- do I really have to go to school like this, Master?" she asks with a note of happy embarrassment.

I reach down and slide my hand up her leg under her skirt, finding no barrier as I stroke her bare pussy lips. "Nope, these are confiscated," I say, nodding to her panties that sit on the sheets beside me. "I was surprised to hear that a lewd girl like you hasn't tried going to school without panties on at least once. I want to hear all the details about how it makes you feel."

She gives a shy smile and fidgets as she stares at her feet, presumably thinking about what it will be like to go a full day at school without panties on. I'm so happy I thought of using Meta Shift to make the PreCure girls personalities much lewder... its going to make this whole adventure much more pleasant for everyone involved.

"Okay, time to get going, or else you'll be late. Delta, find Yayoi a portal terminus that's within a block of her school, but where no one will see her exit."

Delta makes that whirring noise I've learned means she's calculating something complicated, then dings. "Location found. Have fun at school, Yayoi-sama."

I will a portal into existence against the bedroom wall. Yayoi goes to walk through it, but I beckon for her to come back, and give her a long, deep kiss to say goodbye. While we intertwine our tongues, I mentally push hard, flooding her body with spiritual energy, until she's full to bursting. "Just in case any Akanbe show up," I say after we break the kiss.

"Thank you so much, Master. I'll be thinking about you a lot all day in class," she says with another fidget, before heading through the portal.

I watch the swirling energy close behind her, then collapse back into the bed. My vision dims, black closing in on the periphery. "Delta... why do I feel like I'm about to pass out?" I ask, starting to get worried.

"You just drained your spiritual reserves down to 0.01%," she replies succinctly.

"What? I thought..." Ugh, its difficult to think clearly, half my brain power is just going to staying awake. "I thought I had unlimited energy? From the Meta Shift, remember? We used that one doujinshi, the one with the Ugly Bastard in it, where he gets the PreCures addicted to his semen, because they cannot recharge their powers any other way. He says in the comic he said he was an infinite source of PreCure energy..."

Delta whirrs for a while. "Meta Shift is one of the least predictable of the calibration perks, especially the way you've done it, with half a dozen different individual Meta Shifts layered on top of each other. Elements from that doujinshi are doubtless present in this reality, but others are not. For example, Master, you are not an Ugly Bastard. You're quite attractive, actually," she notes happily. "It will be an ongoing effort to discover how exactly the concepts from the various doujinshi you sacrificed will have translated into tangible changes in this reality." She hesitates for a moment. "One thing I think we can safely discount, however, is the idea that a 10 point talent like Meta Shift could be used to simulate the effects of a 140 point talent like Inexhaustible."

I rub my eyes. "Okay okay, point taken. My clever loopholes weren't as clever as I thought they were." I hadn't realized it was there before, but now that I know what to look for, I can perceive the bar that represents my spiritual energy level in my mind's eye. It is indeed flashing empty. "It will recharge if I sleep, right?"

"Yes, Master. It will also recharge from lifeforms near you experiencing happiness or sexual pleasure. Hence why you and Yayoi-sama were able to make love until nearly sunrise without collapsing from exhaustion. But you transferred away the bulk of what energy you had received from the lovemaking to her before she departed."

"Right." I sigh. So I'm going to have to figure out some plan for resource management, if I really did gimp the PreCure's energy recharge abilities with the Meta Shift like I intended. Sure, I wanted them to be dependant on me for spiritual energy, but if I can't actually give them enough, then I'm in serious trouble. The whole world is, actually. But I decide this is a future me problem. "Configure one of the workshops here in the Grand Manor to be set up for the research, development and..." I yawn a huge, jawbreaking yawn. "... and manufacture of magical items that store and manipulate spiritual energy. I need textbooks, tools, raw materials... the works. Especially a bunch of Cure Decors I can use."

"Confirmed, Master," Delta says pleasantly.

I spend a moment of fuzzy near-sleep thoughts considering how hopelessly screwed I would be without Delta to take care of all the details for me. She even thought to tap into the PreCure universe's cellphone network so that Yayoi's cell would be able to send and receive calls in the Grand Manor, without me even asking for it.

"Also, configure a second workshop for me to work on expanding and developing your capabilities. Additional logic cores, more drone bays, that sort of thing."

"C- confirmed," she says, sounding surprised. "Thank you, Master."

"Mmph. I'm taking a nap now."

*****

Yayoi practically prances into the classroom. The low murmur of conversation fills the room as she walks past her other classmates, heading to the back of the room they usually gather. But the rest of the PreCures are either out of the classroom, or in Akane and Miyuki's cases, resting their heads in their hands at their desks.

"What's wrong, everyone?" Yayoi asks, mystified.

Akane rubs her eyes, looking up. "Didn't sleep well last night. I guess everyone else didn't either. We're all just kinda feeling wiped out."

Miyuki looks up pouting, with bags under her eyes. "I didn't get any of my homework done..."

The redhead looks back at Miyuki. "That's just every day for you though, right?"

Miyuki sticks her tongue out in response, then yawns widely. "I really hope no Akanbe attack today. I just have no energy at all..."

Yayoi flexes her bicep confidently, only mildly undercut by her complete lack of muscle definition. "If any Akanbe show up, leave them to me!"

Akane gives a tired smile to both girls. "Well, I hope today is peaceful as well, but... we're a team, Yayoi. We'll all back you up no matter how tired we are. Still, its good to see you feeling confident."

The blonde continues to chat with her friends.

*****

I roll out of bed, feeling amazing.

"Good morning, Master," Delta chimes in with a greeting.

A glance at my phone when I wake up shows only about an hour and a half has passed. "What's going on? I feel like I slept a full eight hours."

"That matches the predictive results of my simulation analysis of the Meta Shift's changes. Most likely, rather than give you infinite spiritual energy, the Meta Shift has simply parasitized the PreCure's ability to recharge their own spiritual energy, in exchange for buffing your own, Master. Yayoi-sama has already reported to me that the other PreCures are saying they have diminished recharging capabilities, which seem to be steadily falling towards zero."

Great. And if the girls pass out and end up getting captured by Wolfrun or one of the others, I have absolutely no way of freeing them. Me having all the spiritual energy in the world is not super useful when, as an older man, I can't actually access the only functional magic system in this world. There are perks to fix that, true, but I don't have a single point to my name right now, and plus, shouting HAPPY SHOWER to defeat bad guys isn't really my style.

"Tell Yayoi-chan that protecting the other PreCures is her top priority, until I can get things sorted out."

"I suspect that is unnecessary, Master, but I will tell her," Delta states. "Yayoi-sama seems positively giddy in her new combat strength, and is eager to protect her friends."

"Okay. If she has an emergency and needs more spiritual energy for any reason, portal her directly to my location. But for now, I need to think. I'll take breakfast in the Magical Item Workshop."

"Understood, Master," she chimes.

*****

"Ahh... okay. Who knows how to solve this problem," their math teacher asks.

The room is silent, so the old man calls upon his ever reliable pupil. "Aoki-kun?"

The blue haired student council vice president and eternal honor student, Reika Aoki, snores away quietly behind her propped up book.

"Oi..." one of her neighboring students says uncertainly, poking her shoulder.

"Mmph?" Reika says, jerking her head up with sleepy eyes.

"Ah, never mind. I suppose even honor students have off days. Hrmm... Kise-kun, how about you?"

Yayoi pulls her worried eyes off of Reika, and goes on to answer the teacher's question.

*****

Several hours of intense research later, I stand in front of a whiteboard covered in notes. As far as magic systems go, Pretty Cure magic is relatively simple. The keyword here being relatively... even the simplest of magic systems are obviously a doozy to fully wrap your head around.

"So, we've confirmed I've crippled the PreCures ability to regenerate their energy with my Meta Shift changes, which means as things stand now, its impossible for them to defeat the Bad End Kingdom. Hell, it will be tough for them to even survive random Akanbe." I massage my temples, feeling the edges of a headache coming on. "My first thought for a solution is to use myself as a centralized network for energy storage, and transfer it to the Cures as they need it. There are three major problems with this approach: capacity, throughput and range."

"Yes, Master..." Delta agrees patiently. She's heard this all before... I'm just restating things from the top to try to get a handle on it.

"Capacity... I can't hold anywhere near enough energy to fuel all five PreCures through a sustained battle right now, much less once they start going into Princess mode. Throughput, the energy needs to be able to be transferred faster than they use it up in battle, and we're nowhere near that. And most damningly, range. I currently need to be touching a PreCure to transfer energy into her, which is... impractical... for combat purposes."

"An apt summary of the current roadblocks, Master..." Delta demurs. "I wish I could help more. So much of my databanks is currently occupied by my dimensional transference capabilities, its difficult for me to learn too much about other topics like this."

"Nonsense, you've been invaluable in me learning about the Pretty Cure magic system so far," I retort. Understanding magic might be intuitive and easy thanks to my Science and Soul Talents, but knowing where to even begin looking for the answers to a lot of my questions would have been impossible without Delta to index and parse the reams of information available to me.

I tap my finger against my lips. Something about what she said tickles my brain. I sit back in my chair and lean way back, thinking. "So Delta... you're a learning AI, right?"

"That is correct, Master..." she says, her voice expressing slight confusion by the change in topic.

I get up out of my chair, stretching. "Alright. I'm going to try to kill two birds with one stone. Bring my lunch to the AI Workshop."

*****

Miyuki, Yayoi and Nao sit on the school roof, eating lunch together. Or rather, Yayoi is carefully feeding Nao her lunch as Nao lays her head in Yayoi's lap.

"If you felt so bad, why did you come to school?" Yayoi asks softly, petting Nao's head.

Nao makes an unhappy noise. "I can't just quit, Yayoi-chan. I had to make all my siblings lunches, or else they'd go hungry, and then I walk them to elementary school. At that point, its just another few blocks here." She sighs, and accepts another serving of her lunch from the chopsticks in Yayoi's hands, chewing morosely. "Why am I so tired, though..."

"Well, you were the one to defeat the last Akanbe. Maybe you just haven't finished recovering your PreCure energy from that?" Miyuki offered.

"Mmm... it never took more than a day to recover before..." Nao complains.

"Gwahahaha, so this is where you were-oni?" comes a towering, deep voice from the sky.

Miyuki jumps up, pointing upwards at the red ogre flying there. "Oh no, its Akaoni!"

Nao gets to her knees, struggling to stand. "Ah... great... the worst possible time."

Yayoi slaps a fist into her open hand. "I was hoping you'd show up today." She turns back to her friends. "You two can stay here, I'll handle this."

Miyuki looks at her, shocked. "Eh? But... we're a team, right?"

Akaoni laughs obnoxiously. "Ahahaha... the crybaby is showing some guts for once-oni? Alright, bring it on-oni. Go, Akanbe!"

In an explosion of yellow power, Yayoi transforms into Cure Peace. "Here I come!"

*****

"Alright, last one," I say, rubbing my hands together, then kicking the button on the hover pallet that makes it float off the ground with a low hum. Carefully, I lift the two thousand pound mainframe case upwards, hearing the antigrav strain as the height increases. At the correct level, I push it forward to ease it into the housing I have set up for it along the wall. When I flip the switch to turn off the hover mode, the metal container thuds with a tremendous sound as it settles into the indentation.

"This truly is incredible work, Master," Delta muses, her cameras watching as I swiftly and efficiently bind groups of cables that emerge from the mainframe casing together with velcro ties. "Are you using one your talents for this?"

"Naw, this is a skill from my old life," I laugh, beginning to staple the cable bundles to the wall in straight lines. "I was an IT professional. Good cable management is the sign of a good IT guy. I was one of the best. They called me 'the God of Cable Porn'."

"C- cable porn?" Delta asks uncertainly.

"Yep. That's what we called it. Now, let's see... this one is goes into the neural network storage?"

One whole wall of the AI Workshop is now dominated by fifteen massive mainframe towers, the wall behind them a neatly structured forest of cable bundles. Combined with the original mainframe that was Delta's original hardware below the floor, this represented a sixteen-fold increase in memory and processing power.

"Ready for me to flip the switch?" I ask when the cabling is finished.

"Y- yes, if you're certain its all correct, Master..." she replies, a sliver of nervousness in her voice. If even one of the thousands of cables is missing or plugged in wrong, Delta has said that the consequences of booting into a malformed network would be somewhere between painful and potentially fatal.

With a pull of a lever, the fifteen additional mainframes spin to life. The lights in the Workshop dim noticably, then recover as the power plant below ground compensates.

I wait several seconds, hearing Delta's systems whirring intensely. "So... what do you think?"

"I think... I think that the 'God of Cable Porn' can do no wrong! This is incredible! I can store so much, calculate so fast... Without the need to discard extraneous data, I can already feel my learning algorithms surging!"

I laugh as I watch on the monitors in the AI Workshop as they flip rapidly between her many functions. Operations she needed to do singularly before are now all running in parallel. "I'm glad you like it. You think you can handle that blueprint I showed you now?"

"I'll certainly do my best..." she replies, her voice rapturous. The various drone bays open, a steady stream of the tracked robots making their ways towards the Magic Item Workshop. "Thank you so much, Master... I swear I won't fail you!"

"Alright. While you work on that, I've got another objective to take care of." I summon a portal to enter the PreCure world myself for the first time. "No rest for the wicked..."

*****

Chiharu Kise, mother of Yayoi Kise, hears a key jumbling in the lock at the front door. She doesn't bother looking up from her book as she lounges on the couch. "Welcome home, honey!" she says absently. "How was school? You're home early... were club activities canceled?"

Instead of the daughter she expects, its me standing in front of her, as her eyes lift up from the page. She recoils backwards in fear. "W- who are you? How did you get into my house?"

I give her a frown, jangling the key in front of her. "From your daughter's pocket. Look. I know this is scary. Just... trust that its going to work out well. I'm acting in your best interest."

She inhales, about to scream for help, so I thrust forward a thick tentacle of Shroud power. The amorphous, semi-solid substance pours down her throat, silencing any attempted scream, slides under her clothes and shreds through them in seconds. I push forward with more Shroud, enveloping her entirely and penetrating her pussy and anus as well, feeling every inch of her body vibrating with Shroud energy inside and out.

Her eyes roll up in the back of her head, the overwhelming power of the Shroud crushing her untrained mental defenses. As a tier one being, Chiharu can't even begin to resist. This simply isn't even a contest.

A matter of seconds later, I feel the capture notification buzz on my phone, and my points go up from zero to one. With that confirmation, I withdraw my Shroud, leaving the blissed out housewife moaning among the tattered remnants of her clothing.

Grabbing a handful of her hair, I turn her face up towards me. "Chiharu Kise. Who is your master?"

"Y... Y- you are..." she manages, her mouth sounding like its full of marbles, a glob of drool running down her cheek. "You are... my Master..."

"Serve me well, and I promise to be the kindest and gentlest master to both you and your daughter."

Her eyes finally manage to focus. "You've... Yayoi-chan? Please... leave her alone... I'll... I'll do anything you ask, so..."

Well, that's just not happening. I'm still attracted to a beautiful housewife like Chiharu, how could I not be? But there's no way a lolicon like me is giving up Yayoi for her mother. Still, there's no need to choose. I'll just have both. Chiharu will learn to accept the situation in time.

"We'll see..." I reply, giving her hope. "Perhaps, if you can satisfy me..."

"I will!" she says, her eyes drunk with obedience and pleasure. "I'll serve you with all my heart..."

I help her to her feet, letting her lean on my arm as I lead her into her bedroom. "Show me..."

*****

Yayoi opens the door to her house, practically singing with excitement. She can't wait to tell Master about how she spent the whole day fantasizing about him, feeling the wind drifting up her skirt against her exposed mound. About how she protected her friends so well with his training, even despite how strangely weak they seemed today! He's going to be so proud...

Almost immediately, though, she can hear her mother's voice. Her voice is strange. She's calling out loudly and... lewdly?

Yayoi approaches her mother's bedroom door with caution, swallowing nervously. Sliding it open just a crack, she sees Master's form from behind, his naked body slamming into her mother's back half while she's on all fours. Her mother cries out again and again, begging for him to continue, to do her even harder, even rougher, to cum inside her...

The blonde girl feels her knees buckle, and she slides down the wall. She tried so hard to be a good girl, to hold back despite how aroused she was all day, but its impossible with this scene in front of her. There's no jealousy, no judgement. That her Master has decided to claim her mother as well as her seems as natural as can be.

Yayoi's hand plunges into her waistband, finding her drenched slit and sliding a pair of fingers inside herself. She gasps, leaning her head against the door frame as she masturbates frantically. Its nothing compared to the sensation of Master's cock inside her, but if she doesn't do something, she'll probably explode...

*****

After about an hour with her, I'm finally done with Chiharu. I stand up, leaving her insensate on the bed, leaking semen out of all three holes. It was a fun diversion, but I have important things to get done before...

Well well well. As I walk out of the master bedroom, naked and sweaty, I see my precious first waifu. Yayoi retreats from where she was at the crack in the door, trying to look innocent, but its not exactly difficult to piece together what she was doing. She shivers in front of me, her breath heaving, her knees trembling, her face blushing heavily.

"Did you enjoy the show?" I say with a wry smile.

She looks down at her hands guiltily. "I just... I wanted to tell you about the Akanbe I defeated, Master. But after seeing... that..."

I laugh heartily, and pet her head gently. "You defeated an Akanbe all by yourself? I'm very proud of you, Yayoi-chan. You can tell me the whole story during dinner." I stroke her under the chin, feeling her energy reserves. The fight must have used up about half of her total capacity, which has greatly expanded from the training we did yesterday. I use the physical contact to top off her spiritual energy with what I got from sex with Chiharu. She gasps as the energy flows into her, preening from the chin scratches. "But try and hold yourself together until tonight, okay? We'll have sex again then. In the mean time, I've got some stuff to take care of back at the Grand Manor. Get your mother into the bath and let her recover a bit, then start cooking dinner. Text me when its ready."

"Yes, Master!"
