Aurora's eyes fluttered open as her phone's alarm went off. She looked up at the ceiling, then around the room, but she didn't notice anything unusual. Then she turned her head to look at her sleeping partner and met his eyes. Koren smiled and kissed Aurora, pushing his tongue into her mouth. Aurora leaned in and kissed Koren back. It was somewhat uncomfortable and a bit outside her comfort zone, but Aurora pushed the feeling aside; kissing was nice, regardless of the circumstances. After a half minute, Aurora pushed Koren's face away and sat up. Koren joined her.
"So, what now? Do we have morning practice?" Koren asked Aurora.
"No, they don't do that here. It doesn't make much of a difference since sex is way better for us. After yesterday, you can probably feel it. So, no morning practice, but breakfast should be getting served right about now. And at eight is when the first class of the day starts. And at ten is when work starts, and that lasts for four hours. Speaking of, have you been to the assignment hall?" Aurora asked.
"No, not yet," Koren replied.
"Then we can go there after eating since we haven't chosen any classes yet. But prepare yourself, because you don't get to choose your own job. They decide where you go," Aurora said.
"Oh? What did you get, then?" Koren asked.
"I was chosen for the public sex department," Aurora replied nonchalantly.
"That sounds hot. What will you be doing there?" Koren asked.
"They're going to make me do porn and prostitute me, turning me into a fully-fledged whore," Aurora said.
"And you're okay with that?" Koren asked, raising an eyebrow. Aurora had been a bit shy about sex in the past, and she had lost her virginity less than twenty-four hours ago. Any remotely intelligent person would think she wasn't wholely ready for porn and prostitution.
"Not really. But I want to be someone elder Kiera can be proud of. I really want to not disappoint her, so I'll do everything they tell me to. I just hope my family back home doesn't find out. I don't know how I will tell them about all this. Maybe I'll just lie about all the sex stuff," Aurora said.
"Yeah, I'm not all that eager to tell my family that I'm in a sect where slutty behavior is rewarded, either. And even required, in your case. But that doesn't mean I won't indulge in said slutty behavior. So, shall we go for a round before eating? We have plenty of time today, after all," Koren said as he tried to spread Aurora's legs. But Aurora quickly shut him down and rolled away.
"Nope. I'm gonna eat," Aurora said.
"What? Why? We'll just do it once before we eat, then maybe a couple of times after. We don't have to do it all day like yesterday," Koren said. For some reason, Aurora saying no completely shocked the guy.
"I only had sex with you yesterday because I lost our bet, one that I only made as a joke in the first place. I thought I told you that already. I have no reason to do it again. I'm still full to the brim with that weird sex energy from when the elder did me. I will have sex with you again, but I'm not a fucktoy, here to please you whenever you want. I will only sleep with you when I want to or if you can make it worth my while. I don't think that is unfair since you'll be living with four girls, all of whom will be your sexual partners. You'll probably be able to find someone whenever you're in the mood. So, unless you can make it worth my time, I'm going to put some clothes on," Aurora said as she walked towards the dresser. The room came with a huge dressing room with enough space for all five residents to keep their clothes. If they had more than they could fit in the dresser, they could keep the rest in their private rooms.
"What can I do to make it worth your time?" Koren asked. Aurora stopped for a moment before looking back to Koren.
"I don't know. I won't sleep with you for money. Maybe after the sect makes me into a prostitute, but not now. Really, I'm not comfortable trading sex away for material goods yet. But if you do some big favor for me, like saving me somehow, or, I don't know, just do a favor for me, I don't mind repaying that favor with sex. Debt and promises are something I take very seriously. But for today, I think you better forget about sex," Aurora said as she put on a pair of panties and a sports bra before leaving the room. She didn't bother getting fully dressed since she would be taking a shower after breakfast anyway.
"If you say so. It's a damned shame, though," Koren said as he put on some trunks and followed Aurora.
"I gotta say, I'm glad you're not shy with your body around me. Seeing you in nothing but your underwear is still very hot," Koren continued while walking slightly behind Aurora.
"How could I be shy with you after yesterday? And we were both naked together, like, a minute ago," Aurora said.
"That's true," Koren said.
The next half hour was spent eating a delicious breakfast. As they ate, the two chatted about various things. After that, Koren got to see Aurora's naked body again as they went for a shower. Aurora kept to her own corner, though, and wouldn't let Koren get too close. She wasn't pleased about having to shower together, but the sect's rules stated it was permitted, so she wouldn't chase him out. And it was convenient anyway since Aurora had to show Koren to the assignment hall. That way, she wouldn't have to wait for him to finish. In fact, it was Koren who ended up waiting for Aurora in the end since she took longer.
She didn't put any makeup on or anything since she would be training right after showing Koren to the assignment hall. Still, washing and drying her long hair took longer, not to mention that Koren didn't use any body wash, conditioner, or moisturizer. He just used his shampoo for both his hair and body. Or maybe it was an all-in-one shampoo.
Aurora considered Koren pretty hot, or even very hot, but his shower routine wasn't the reason for that. Even after Koren was finished, he stayed in the shower room, watching Aurora. When Aurora was finally done and dressed, he stood up.
"You spend a lot of time showering," Koren commented.
"Yeah, well, you could afford to spend some more time in here. You should buy some conditioner and moisturizer. And separate shampoo and body wash is better," Aurora said.
"If I agree to do all that, will you have sex with me just once before we leave? Just a quickie, right here," Koren said.
"No, you moron. Showering properly is for your own good, but I don't give a damn if you don't. Let's get going already. I want to start cultivating soon," Aurora said as she grabbed Koren's hand and dragged him away. Aurora was pretty eager to do some proper cultivating, using the sexual energy the loss of her virginity had given her.
Aurora quickly showed Koren the way to the assignment hall. The building wasn't easy to miss since it had a huge sign with its name on it.
"This is the place. I'm going home. See you later," Aurora said. Then she left without even waiting for a reply. Back home, she went into her private room to cultivate. Cultivating at the Energy Storage stage and above only required meditation, so peace and quiet was the most critical aspect needed in the room where you'd cultivate. That's why the private room was perfect since only Aurora could enter it freely.
Sitting cross-legged, she started cultivating in a method not much different from what she was used to. She drew in the world's energy from the air while simultaneously consuming the new energy that had been inside her body since yesterday. The energy calmed her mind and sped up the rate at which she absorbed world energy. At this moment, her cultivation increased faster than it ever had in her entire life by an enormous amount! The pond of energy in her center rapidly expanded, explosively reaching for the size of a lake or maybe even beyond!
It seemed like the very instant she started cultivating, a barrier broke. Her pond had increased to the size of a level five Energy Storage cultivator! It had been six months since she reached the fourth level, and back then, she had spent five months reaching that level, so the fifth level had likely not been far away. But still, in just a few seconds of cultivation, she had broken through, and it didn't seem to stop! Aurora's inner energy capacity continued to increase at a discernible rate. But at the same moment, the sexual energy inside her depleted equally fast.
Aurora spent hours in that state, and another layer was broken before she could even comprehend what had happened! She entered the sixth level of Energy Storage! The whole of Energy Storage only had ten levels. At this rate, she would break through to the Condensing stage before she knew it.
But then, amid all the excitement, her ascent to power slowed to the point where it was hardly noticeable anymore. All the sexual energy inside was spent, and now she merely cultivated at the same rate as before. She couldn't help but sigh. That extreme speed of cultivation Aurora had just experienced, coupled with her major breakthrough in martial arts the day before, had given her such a high. Now that everything was back to normal, she had a hard crash with reality.
"I'll never get to experience anything like that again. Even the energy I got from Koren was way weaker than when I lost my virginity. If I cultivate normally, I most likely have to spend close to a year before breaking through again. Sex might shorten that by a few months, but everything has its limits," Aurora monologued.
"But still, this was nothing short of a miracle. I just skipped an entire level like it was nothing! I have to tell elder Vara about this," Aurora continued before pulling out her phone and calling Vara. Only a moment passed before she answered.
"Hello, Aurora. How was your night?" Vara asked.
"It was good. But more importantly, I just broke through in cultivation! Twice! I was at the fourth level, but now I'm at the sixth one! I can hardly believe it! I'm so excited!" Aurora spoke, rushed from excitement. Vara laughed at the younger girl's current state.
"Yes, I told you the first time will give you a big boost. If you think skipping one level is impressive, you should see those younger girls who are still at Body Tempering. Don't mention skipping one level; if they are lucky, they might even go from the middle levels all the way into Energy Storage. Too bad it's so rare for us to get virgin disciples. You and I were like that, but most of us have sex very early. There are even some girls who had their first when they were twelve or even younger, which I think is a bit too early. Boys tend to be older than that, though. But anyways, congratulations on your breakthrough," Vara said.
"Thank you, elder Vara. I'm sorry if my call bothered you, but I really needed to tell someone, you know?" Aurora said, causing Vara to laugh yet again.
"Aurora, I already told you that you can call whenever you want or come visit me. As long as you don't call in the middle of the night or early morning, I won't get mad. You're the only disciple I took into my martial family, so I will, of course, cherish you."
"Really, I'm the only one? How come? What made you take me in?"
"I've only become an elder recently, so I haven't had many opportunities to take anyone in. Adopting someone into your martial family isn't something done lightly in the first place. I took you in because you remind me very much of myself when I was younger. We were both virgins when we entered the sect, albeit I was a bit younger. We both guarded our virginities but gave it away without any complaints when we realized the power we could get from that trade. That's why I took you in. Because we're similar people," Vara explained.
"Oh, I see. I'm glad to be similar to someone like you," Aurora said with a smile. Not that Vara could see the smile.
"I bet. Have you thought about any classes to choose yet?"
"Eh, no, not really. I was a bit, um, busy yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to look at my choices. I will look into it today. I already have a pretty good idea of what I want, though," Aurora said.
"That's good. Then, if there's nothing else you need, I need to get going soon," Vara said.
"No, I just called to tell you about my breakthrough. Don't let me keep you."
"See you later then, Aurora."
"Goodbye, elder. It was nice talking to you," Aurora said.
"You, too. Goodbye," Vara replied. Then, she hung up.
