"Wait, don't go yet, Elif!" Yelled Suscila as she looked at Elif and Illumia flying away, only to sigh in the end.
"Haa, we didn't even get to kiss." Muttered Suscila quietly with a frown as she kicked the ground while pouting, only to turn around and glance at Cordelia.
"Hehe, so, wasn't I speaking the truth, Sister? Isn't Elif the perfect man?" Asked Suscila with a faint smile as she held Cordelia's hand, causing her focus to finally shift towards her.
"Elif is definitely the most beautiful man I've ever laid eyes on; that isn't something I can deny." Replied Cordelia softly as she slightly nodded while glancing at Suscila, who proudly raised her head.
"However, he is by no means the perfect man. In fact, I highly advise you to keep your distance from him, Suscila; thanks to our spar, I was able to gleam his true self and not the facade he constantly wears." Added Cordelia with a slight frown as he gazed in the direction Elif and Illumi flew before shaking her head and turning around, causing Suscil to follow.
"Eh, what do you mean, Sister? Facade? Why would Elif be wearing a facade? From everything we know about him, he doesn't seem like the type of person to be interested in the public's opinion of him." Questioned Suscila in confusion as she looked at Cordelia, following her into the residence before entering her room.
"He may not be, nor do I know why he wears that facade; I've only sparred with him once after all; however, I can tell he carries with him an immense amount of pride, and because of his pride, he doesn't seem to view us, or anyone with respect." Replied Cordelia lightly as she glanced at Suscila while the sisters rid themselves of clothes, revealing the beautiful figures that numerous men sought.
"I mean, you experienced his strength first-hand, Sister; he had achieved sword will, something you haven't even done, not to mention he seemed rather experienced in using it, so he mostly had it for quite some time. Gaining respect from someone like that won't be easy." Said Suscila as she lowered herself into the warm water while Cordelia merely sighed before sitting beside her.
"Just be careful whenever you interact with him, Suscila; I know you have some infatuation for him, but don't let it cloud your judgment." Said Cordelia while glancing at Suscila before closing her eyes, allowing the several maids to tend to her as they gently scrubbed her body, cleansing her.
"I know, Sister… But, speaking of infatuation, Elif seems to have a little something for you; I could see in the way he spoke and carried himself. Hehe, it must've been these that managed to woo him." Remarked Suscila with a nod, only for her to mischievously smirk as she leaned closer to Cordelia before groping her moderate-sized breasts.
"S-Stop it, Suscila!" Said Cordelia with a faint blush as she slapped Suscila's hands away before covering her breasts, causing her to faintly chuckle.
"Hehe, admit it, Sister; you must have some level of infatuation for Elif. I find it hard for a woman to feel nothing when standing before him. Don't you find him attractive, Chule?" Stated Suscila with a faint smirk as she suppressed herself while glancing at Cordelia, only to turn her head and look at a young mermaid wearing maid attire.
"Yes, Mistress Suscila. He is just so dreamy and beautiful; I couldn't even help but spy on him when you and Mistress Cordelia were speaking with him." Said Chule with a blush as she rapidly nodded while cleaning Cordelia, whose face twitched.
"I will no longer further engage in such a conversation." Said Cordelia lightly as she closed her eyes and folded her arms, causing Suscila to faintly smirk before shifting her focus to Chule.
"When this is over, come to my room, Chule; I'll show something I haven't shown anyone; however, you must promise on your dao heart to keep it a secret." Remarked Suscila solemnly as she stared at Chule, who slightly widened her eyes before nodding with a stern expression.
"Y-Yes Mistress Suscila." Declared Chule, her words causing Suscila to chuckle while Cordelia internally sighed.

Landing on the ground, I spotted my three servants practicing in the courtyard, an everyday occurrence for them, which got me thinking that the next time I returned home, I would need to bring Ember with me so she could receive a proper cultivation manual, not the mediocre one she's using right now which isn't even the best the Phoenix Clan had to offer.
'The only problem is, I'm worried Elaine may harm her, and I'd prefer if that didn't happen.' Mused Elif lightly as he glanced at Ember before shaking his head and entering his residence with Illumia silently following right behind.
"What is wrong with you, Illumia? You've been quiet ever since we visited Cordelia; did you perhaps notice something while there?" Asked Elif curiously as he turned around and walked backward while gazing at Illumia, who shook her head.
"I noticed I do not like Suscila, your Highness." Replied Illumia softly as she looked at Elif, who nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I agree with you on that; I also don't like Suscila, though I suppose that's mostly my fault. Haa, I wouldn't mind killing Suscila, but I'm not confident enough to do so without there being evidence that points to me; besides, doing so within the Realm sect is forbidden, meaning I'd have to wait until she left the island on either a mission or whenever she's visiting her home, but that also means, she'll most likely have some form of protection." Remarked Elif softly with a slight frown and a thoughtful expression, pondering over the many obstacles he must go through to kill Suscila.
"Haa, so much work; I'll leave it for Elaine; not only will she enjoy doing it, but she's far better than me at assassinating." Added Elif lightly as he shook his head, forgetting the whole ordeal while stepping into his room.
"Elif!" Yelled Sarah in surprise as she lunged towards Elif, who promptly stepped to the side, causing her to slam face-first into Illumia's ample chest.
"Hmph, not funny, Elif, you're supposed to catch me." Said Sarah with a slight frown as she turned and eyed Elif, who faintly chuckled in amusement.
"Hello to you as well, Sarah. So, how was your little girl's only trip?" Asked Elif curiously as he sat on his throne while glancing at Sarah, who removed herself from Illumia's embrace before skipping towards him and sitting on his lap.
"Heh, it was quite fun; we visited many stores, watched a few love plays, and finished with a meal at a restaurant! However, I can't discuss what we talked about; we all promised to tell no man; sorry." Replied Sarah with a large smile as she leaned into Elif's embrace, only to apologetically kiss his cheek.
"Oh! Speaking of stores, I had gotten something for Illumia and I, and I know you'll love it, Elif." Added Sarah passionately with wide eyes while Elif and Illumia raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
"For me?" Asked Illumia in slight surprise as she stood beside Elif's throne, only for her face to blush deeply when two different-sized outfits appeared in Sarah's hands.
"What do you think, Elif?" Asked Sarah with a faint blush and a large smile as she eagerly looked at Elif, who lifted one of the outfits into the air.
The outfit Sarah presented was of multiple pieces with leopard print sleeves, furry ears, leopard print stockings, and small underwear with a hole in the back for the tail to easily stick into what I could only assume would be the arse.
"What do I think?" Muttered Elif lightly as he gazed at the outfit, only to gulp and stare at Sarah.
"I think you should've gotten three outfits; now that you've shown me this, I must see Elaine wear such an outfit." Stated Elif solemnly with a deep gaze, his words causing Sarah to smirk while Illumia sighed with a deep blush.
"Hehe, if that's the chase, shall Illumia and I wear them right now?" Asked Sarah seductively as she whispered into Elif's ear, causing his manhood to twitch in response while he faintly smiled.
"Oh, I'd love to; unfortunately, as you can see, it's night, which means I must cultivate. Though, when I next open my eyes, I best see my two concubines wearing this outfit." Declared Elif wryly as he stood up with Sarah in his arms, causing her to pout before eventually nodding with a smile.
"Hehe, well then, let's go, Illumia, we'll go and practice." Stated Sarah with a large smile as she stored the clothes away, grabbed Illumia's hand, and forcefully led her out of the room.
Watching my concubines leave, I hovered over my bed and began cultivating, eager for when morning arrived.

Lowering myself onto my bed, finishing my nightly cultivation session, I opened my eyes, only to see Sara and Illumia on all fours wearing those outfits as I had ordered them.
"~Good morning, Master~." Said Sarah seductively as she crawled towards Elif while slightly wiggling her butt, accentuating the swaying of her tail.
"~Do you need a cleaning, Master~?" Asked Illumia lustfully as she crawled onto the bed while pressing her ample breasts against his stomach and opening her mouth.
I wasn't a lustful person; it's just Sarah and Illumia were quite good at drawing out my lust, and let's not even mention Elaine, that absolute succubus of an Elf; however, seeing my two concubines wearing such outfits really did something to my body as I was consumed with a great deal of lust.
'However, if they look this sexy while wearing such an outfit, I wonder how Elaine will look in such! NO! I wonder how I'll look in such an outfit!?' Thought Elif with a large smile as he stared at his concubines, imagining all the future possibilities.
