I Own a Brothel in Another World

Chapter 85 – New Leadership

My two lovely girls quickly reach my position and kneel in front of me. I can see that Astrea has still not fully recovered from the backlash caused by her technique. She is moving slightly awkwardly and a faint tremor passes through her arm occasionally.

I chuckle at Sirgia’s attempt to support me with her own body, wrapping her arms around my chest.

“It’s okay. I’m fine. Just a little winded. Let my heart calm down a bit and we’ll be good.”

She nods but still keeps hugging me. I move my gaze onto Astrea.

“Come closer and let me heal you a little. You are bruised all over. Did that last punch cause you some harm too?”

“I can wait. It’s nothing much. I think I tore a few muscles. You should first focus on yourself, Alastair.”

Shaking my head, I reach out to brush her cheek. With Sirgia’s support, I don’t need to hold onto the hilt anymore. And my body seems to have already recovered from the initial shock caused by the first use of new ability and all the sudden strain I put on it in an instant.

“I’m good now, as you can see. Come. You won’t make me ask twice, will you?”

She also moves closer after rubbing her cheek into my palm and switches to brushing it against my face while purring softly. Wrapping my arm around her, I begin slowly healing Astrea up. Bit by bit, the visible cuts and bruises fade out. Since they aren’t deep and are quite fresh, barely any new scars appear.

“What the hell was that thing at the end? Can all pure-blood Beastkin survive with a hole in their stomach and still have enough strength to launch themselves over half of the chamber?” I ask.

“No, it definitely wasn’t normal. It shouldn’t have been possible for him to even move with his body hurt so much all over. Micah had very high endurance, especially with his Beastzerker’s Enchantments, but except for the red lines, at the end there, he looked completely different from what I’ve ever seen him become,” Astrea answers.

“So... What’s the situation? I’ve basically barged in and finished him off mid-fight.” I raise my head and glance around. If not for the two of them holding onto me, I could stand up already.

As my eyes move over the people in the chamber, most seem to be in awe, whispering amongst themselves. At least those brought in by Taro. The others that have been present in the alpha’s chamber before his arrival also have admiration in their eyes, or something different in the case of a few females, but I can spot some that avoid my gaze with a clearly anxious expression. I think I can figure out why.

After I feel a faint and ticklish lick on my cheek, Astrea draws herself back to move her face away a bit.

“Everything is alright. He broke the rules first by bringing his weapon into the fight. I’m not sure how he got it, but the moment he did, it wasn’t a duel anymore. Isn’t that right, Elders?”

She turns her head to the side and I follow her. Three pure-blood Beastkin have just finished arriving by our spot. There’s one male Wolfkin, one male Bearkin and one female Raccoonkin. They all are clearly long-lived, with parts of their fur turning white or grey, mostly over their heads and joints.

The trio of elders nods and Astrea moves her gaze back to me.

“Thank you for intervening.” She leans in and places a faint peck on my lips. “I’m not sure if I would have been able to completely avoid that attack. While his aura was weaker than mine, I could have easily lost an arm or leg there, due to my state.”

“That’s good. I was afraid this whole challenge would have been invalidated, but since people aren’t rushing at us with their weapons, I guess it’s fine.”

“There’s just one small problem,” the older woman joins in and we all look at her. “As Astrea has said, from the moment Micah reached for an external help, the oath has been broken and the challenge has been, in fact, rendered void.”

“And from that point, it reverted into a normal battle," the bearkin continues after her. "One thing remained unchanged though. To kill an alpha in a direct contest of strength means to be worthy of competing for their position with the other challengers.”

“If Astrea would have killed Micah even with the help of the others, she would have still been able to lawfully take his place,” the last one of the elders doesn’t stay silent either. “But, as we all have seen, the one who defeated the previous alpha, was you.”

As one of them is speaking, the other two nod along with that person’s words. After a full round with each of them having their turn, all the gazes return back to the woman.

“Your overwhelming might that has easily cut through Spiritualization like it wasn’t even invoked, inflicting deep wounds in the stone body of this chamber and many others, left no doubts in everyone’s minds that you are most likely the strongest person in this Community, fully deserving the title of the alpha. No one, maybe besides Astrea, would dare to challenge you for this position after all of this.”

I repeat all of their statements in my head to get a full picture from that split-into-pieces monologue and move my eyes to Astrea, who is watching me carefully with her usual calm expression. I can clearly sense her pride and affection flowing into me through our bond though.

“So, want to duke things out after you rest a little?” I ask her with a smirk. 

Making her show off a little more in front of the people could be a pretty decent idea. I can just lose at the end or surrender after some powerful attack. Well, there’s also a high chance that Astrea will just mop the floor with me. She’s plenty capable of that, judging by her previous battle and our sparrings.

The person in question looks at me, then at the elders, and then back at me, starting to pull herself closer again. She nuzzles her cheek into mine with much more affection, basically rubbing her whole face over it, and steps away, turning her back to us.

“Listen to me, people of the Community!” Astrea sweeps over the area with her serious gaze while raising her voice. “The current alpha is dead. You have seen for yourself his dishonest conduct, now and before. It’s time for a change. And that’s why, after carefully thinking about it and receiving the permission from the Elders, I announce myself… withdrawing from the contest for the position of the alpha.”

People start murmuring between themselves and even Astrea’s friends seem surprised by her statement. Some gazes turn to me almost immediately. 

I shake my head with a chuckle. “Of course…”

“But!” Astrea recaptures everyone's attention. “Instead! I officially declare myself as the new alpha’s sworn mate! Invoking my right to be recognized as his equal and to share privileges, authority and responsibilities together! We have already partaken in the bonding ritual!”

A myriad of gasps fills the chamber the moment she mentions the words 'sworn mate'. Astrea’s friends’ jaws rest literally on the ground from shock. Many other people have even stronger reactions to the mention of the ritual. 

When we talked about it, she presented it like it was no big deal, but is it really? I don’t think it’s just ‘things people do’, as she said. Considering everyone’s reactions, Astrea wasn’t known as someone who would even consider becoming one’s sworn mate.

“If anyone has any doubts regarding that,” she still continues, silencing the crowd, “we will repeat it right now so that the Elders can personally ascertain its legitimacy!”

「Oi, oi, oi, oi! Doesn’t that mean we have to fuck in front of like fifty people?! I know Beastkin culture is something else but hello?!」

I stand up after patting Sirgia’s head to let her know that I’m all fine and begin to sweep my eyes all over the crowd. If looks could kill, I’m fairly sure mine should be quite lethal, seeing a few people shiver strongly or turn pale as they meet my gaze. I’m certain most of them were the ones willingly following the previous alpha. Anyway, I better not see any—

Amongst the five women sitting on the alpha’s fancy sofa, a single girl is timidly raising her hand into the air—the half-blood pantherkin. Her eyes are darting away from mine as she sends me side glances with a slightly flustered expression.

「You just want to see us fuck, don’t you?!」

I immediately look at Astrea to see if she noticed and there’s no way she didn’t as she has already turned her head my way, waiting for me to move my eyes onto her. I sense a very slight tinge of anxiousness in her mind, most likely from pulling me into this without explaining anything. I have no doubt that she would withdraw if I said a word, but that would cause her image to take a huge hit.

「Ah, whatever. They’ve already sucked me in the open. It’s not like I care anyway. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.」

With a smile, I nod at her. The corners of her lips also rise faintly and Astrea nods back at me. I move my gaze to Sirgia, who is standing by my side.

“Are you fine with this? Since the very moment we came here, it’s all been quite… extraordinary. You have been on the side for most of the time. I don’t want you to feel like you are unnecessary or irrelevant. You are my precious lover too so you should speak up whenever you feel like it. I’m not like that guy, keeping my women under my thumb.”

She smiles at me sweetly. “Please, don’t worry, Master. I was already expecting to be just a third wheel during this operation since both you and Astrea are strong enough and don’t really need my help. But, I’m happy to be able to be around you. Thank you for letting me come.”

Sirgia pulls on my vest and I lean down to let her peck my lips. A heavy blush surfaces on her cheeks afterwards.

“I admit that… it was really embarrassing… back then… but I managed to do it in the end, right? I think I’m getting a little braver… I really admire Astrea for being so bold… But, I’ll be fine. I’m going to wait with her friends for you to finish. I understand that this is important for her.”

I sigh and pat her head. “You would never be a third wheel. Don’t forget that it was thanks to your help that we had an easy time getting rid of that camp and rescuing the captives. Who knows if we would have been able to make it go that smoothly with just the two of us. You are the best little dwarf girlfriend I could have," I use her favourite pet name while brushing through her hair. "Don’t push yourself too hard and let me know if you feel uncomfortable immediately. I love you.”

She nods with a beautiful smile and starts trotting to the side after leaving another peck on my cheek. Returning my gaze to the middle again, I notice that Micah’s body has been moved somewhere else and three people are finishing up getting rid of the blood. Good. At least they aren’t savage enough to fuck over the corpses of their enemies. I’m not really into that.

After a moment of looking around, I find Astrea sitting on her knees on the alpha’s sofa, glancing my way. Her friends moved away from it to the side, where Sirgia is currently arriving. Also, my beautiful catgirl mate is already completely naked. A sight to behold. But not just for me this time.

「I can’t believe we are doing this...」

Sighing again, I begin walking towards her while taking off my coat.

~I’ll undress you,~ Astrea sends me a mental message with her ability before I get it completely off.

Since it would look weird to pull it back up, I finish the movement and throw the coat to the side, not reaching for any other pieces of my clothing. Trying to focus just on her, I stop in front of the sofa. Astrea raises herself on her knees and takes my face into her hands as she starts kissing me passionately.

I place my own palms on the soft skin of her back and brush over it as she affectionately sucks on my mouth. While we make out, Astrea begins to unpin my vest and shirt and slowly undresses me, just as she said.

“So, how are we going to do it?” I ask her during a short moment of rest.

She stops raining pecks all over my lips and switches to rubbing her cheek into mine, whispering into my ear. I can feel her petite breasts on my bare chest now.

“You should show them that I’m yours. Without holding back. We will do the same thing as when you accepted me; when we cum together. You are the new alpha. You have to assert dominance over your sworn mate. Use me as you wish, do me as hard as you can, so that there are no more doubts.”

「I’m fairly sure there were none and it was just your horny friend that caused this...」

“What about the equal part? This doesn’t sound like we are equal. Never mind the fact that I know very well how you’d much rather be the one to assert dominance over me instead. I told you that I want you to stay true to yourself. Can’t we do anything about this?”

Finished with my belt, she lets my pants slide down while still brushing her face against my cheek. I can tell that she is pondering over my words. She gives herself some more time by lazily moving down and unhurriedly lowering my underwear to the very bottom, stepping off the sofa to do that.

I don’t mind putting on a show if that’s what she wants, but I’m also quite certain that Astrea is just following the common standards, where even if the alpha has a sworn mate that’s considered his or hers equal in the Community, since either gender can be at the top, it’s still the alpha who is completely dominant over them. Most of their respect and authority comes most likely just from being an alpha’s man or woman.

Astrea gets done with my shorts and stands up in front of me, glancing at my face slightly from below; her adorable tail makes lively dances, which I can now recognize as happiness after carefully watching it again and again during our time together.

~Thank you, Alastair. If you are really okay with that, I have an idea. We can do it two times. I’ll take the lead during the second. You will lose some face amongst part of the tribe, though.~

~The only face I care about is yours. We just have to silence any opposition with our might, right?~

She exhales through her nose softly while the corners of her mouth lift a little, getting as close to a tiny laugh as possible. Incomprehensibly adorable.

~I really couldn’t get luckier, finding a mate like you, Alastair. Let’s do it. You go first this time. Be strong. Be rough. Be dominant. Do me hard.~

If the lady wishes for it, so be it. 

I push my right hand into Astrea’s short silver hair and grab it roughly, making sure that I don’t squeeze her cute ear. I strongly pull her up until she can barely touch the ground with the tips of her toes and tilt her face up to dive deep into her mouth, going after her tongue like a predator chasing its prey. I swear I can already hear excited gasps somewhere on the side.

I actively explore the insides of her mouth like my life depends on it while Astrea receives the rough affection with her eyes closed and the other, uncovered ear, twitching repeatedly. All the time monitoring her through our bond, I can only sense pleasure from her.

Without any warning, I yank her off my lips and throw her back onto the sofa. She lands on the soft pillowing with a cute yelp. Making myself tower over her, I come closer and stare at Astrea from above as she submissively gazes back at me.

Turning around, I fall to the back and land next to her, throwing my arms over the backrest and spreading my legs open.

“Lick it,” I order her.

Astrea crawls towards my fully erect cock and starts following the issued command by moving her tongue all around my shaft. As she lovingly tickles my whole penis with her faintly harsh tongue, I sweep my gaze over the hall, ending at the group of five—six if we include Sirgia—women sitting on the side of the sofa; now slightly in front of it to get a better view.

Stopping my eyes on a certain Pantherkin girl, I squint at her. I don’t think she gets the idea, judging by how she bites on her lip as her hand snakes down her tummy. You are supposed to start feeling guilty, not even hornier!

She begins rubbing her pinkish pearl with her slender fingers while looking me straight in the eyes. I sigh and return my focus to Astrea. I’m not going to humour her. Damned little pervert. Just you wait. I’ll teach you proper manners if you end up coming back with us.

I grab Astrea’s left leg by the ankle and pull it up, making her hang in the air with my dick in her mouth and her pussy spread towards me.

“Did I tell you to suck it?” I ask and bring her pretty slit to my face, setting us up in a vertical sixty-nine.

Wrapping my arms around her waist, I dig into that fragrant crevice with my tongue, using her supposed violation of orders as an excuse to make sure that she’s wet and ready to go, making it look like I’m just punishing her.

Astrea eagerly bobs her head up and down on my rod as I explore her humid insides. Her enchanting tail waves at me from above her soft butt, trying to ensnare me. As expected, she’s much more than ready. Plenty of love juices are dripping from her excited pussy, serving as a decent appetizer.

To not prolong it too much, I finish it up with a few, loving sucks on her tiny clit, causing some trembling moans to travel through my cock as a result. Placing both hands on her waist, I pull Astrea up until her face is in front of mine, upside-down. With her like that, we exchange a few sloppy kisses.

Having enough, I throw her down onto the mattress again, jumping at her instantly afterwards. In the simplest missionary position, I slide myself into her hot pussy with one thrust, slapping my pelvis against her bottom.

“Nyaaaaaahhhnnnn~”

And the real game begins. I catch her wrists and push them over her head as my cock makes a mess of her precious place, releasing loud, wet sounds into the air, accompanied by Astrea’s completely open moaning.

“Ahhhnnn~ Ahh~ Ahh~ Nhhhnnn~”

Increasing the tempo even more, pummeling her into the soft cushioning that rebounds Astrea’s body back to me after each thrust, I lean forward and pick her fluffy ear into my mouth, starting to place gentle bites on it.

“Nyaaaaahnnnnn~ Nyaa~ Nyaa~ Nyaahnnn~ Nyaa~”

Her cries instantly turn more fervent and her body wriggles under my assault. Each time my teeth softly clamp over the thin sheet, Astrea’s pussy squeezes my cock harder in turn, sending waves of pleasure through my body. And she is certainly enjoying it very much too.

“Nyaaahh~ Nyaaa~ Alasta—nhhhnnn~ Harder~ Nyaa~ Nyaa~”

Holding her wrists with one hand and wrapping the other arm around her waist, I roll onto my back and Astrea lands on my chest, still impaled on my eager rod, rushing through her tight tunnel. I quickly hug her as much as I can and begin to thrust upwards into that unsatisfied hole at an incredible pace.

“Nyah~ Nyah~ Nyah~ Nyah~ Nyah~”

As the fast, continuous slaps echo through the chamber from the intense hammering her leaking lily receives, Astrea’s back arches into a bridge a little. She bites on her lower lip from the overwhelming pleasure, having trouble looking at my face with all the shaking her body is subjected to. 

“Nhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnyyyyyyyaaaaahhhnnnnn~”

She finally crosses the line and her tight pussy convulses on my cock as Astrea reaches her first orgasm, moaning loudly into the air. Her whole posture trembles in my arms and her face falls onto mine. I slow down a little but don’t completely stop, listening to her panting into my ear. 

“Rougher… More… Don’t hold back...” she whispers into it.

I rock my hips once more and push us up into a sitting position, violently going after Astrea’s lips for a moment. She starts moaning into my mouth as her lower lips also receive bits of affection, a little bit tamer for a brief while.

But, that break doesn’t last long as I soon throw her further back on the sofa. After Astrea’s body lands on the cushions with a soft thump, I grab her waist and rotate her vertically, pulling her small, appetizing ass up. 

Clearly figuring out my intentions, she tries raising herself on her hands to finish the proper doggy style, but the second she attempts it, I grab her wrists and pull them back, towards myself, sending my cock back into her snug hole with a mighty push.

“Nyaaaaaaaaaaaahnnnnn~”

We enter the second phase of the first round as I begin vigorously pounding her pussy from behind, pulling Astrea’s body to get her pinkish slit rammed with my dick each time my waist sends her figure forward. And the view of her slim butt and back, with that adorable fluffy strand, is something that can make countless men go crazy.

“Nyahn~ Nyahn~ Nyahn~ Nyahn~ Nyahn~ Nhnnnn~ Nhnnn~ Nyaahhh~”

Astrea enjoys herself to the fullest, receiving my intense pounding with an accompaniment of various moans that are like music to my ears. Since she wished for it, I fully intend to follow her request and slam my hips against her ass harder than ever before, releasing almost deafening slaps as flesh hits against flesh. Her bottom is starting to turn slightly red.

Sensing Astrea’s approaching her high again, I pull her body up to lean it over my chest, hold her hands behind her back with one hand and use the other to cup her chin up from the front, squeezing it with a bit of force and turning it to the side so that we can join our lips in very sloppy and chaotic kisses.

Of course, the pounding turns no lighter and her snug hole receives as much love as it did before, now pushing her whole body slightly into the air with each impact.

“Nyaahn~ Nyahn~ Mhnnnn~ Nhhhnnn~ Mnnnnn~ Nyaaa~”

A few of her moans get muffled when we attempt to take each other’s tongues for a dance, which results in a lot of saliva covering our faces. Astrea quickly reaches another orgasm and I violently push my hips up while pulling her wrists down, tipping her pleasure meters off the scale.

“Nyaaaaaahnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn~”

But, as her marvellous vagina clamps on me for the second time, I still don’t release my load inside. Nevertheless, it’s time to bring an end to my turn and why not do it with a bang. I know I said that I won’t humour that sly pervert, but I changed my mind. Let’s see how she reacts to this.

“Ehhhhhnyaaa?!”

Not even a second after Astrea’s trembling fades down, I push her high up into the air with a powerful thrust that slaps her bottom really hard, almost making her jump off my dick. I slide my arms under her raised knees and link my hands behind her neck, pulling it down.

My dick rushes through Astrea’s folds again as her body falls down while I step off the sofa. Starting to walk ahead, I resume the assault on her pretty lily from below while forcing her to almost look at it in a full nelson.

“Nyaahnn~ Nyaahnn~ Nyaahnn~ Wait~ Nyaahnn~ What~ Nyaahnn~”

Since they are quite close, we quickly arrive in front of Astrea's friends. I stop specifically by a certain half-blood pantherkin, positioning us so that she gets the best view of my cock ravaging Astrea’s leaking snatch.

As my precious catgirl releases countless amorous moans and cries under the heavy pummeling her comfortable tunnel receives, the clearly turned on panthergirl that has been fervently fingering herself gets drawn to the movements of our genitals, losing contact with all the surroundings. She brings her face so close that I can no longer see it from above Astrea’s body.

While that shrewd feline is enjoying the show and bringing herself closer to the climax, my own very rough affection is already pushing Astrea into another orgasm. Aiming for the perfect finisher, I catch her flailing tail into my mouth, accidentally locking eyes with Vii. 

Since it would be too beta of the alpha to run away, I retain the connection as I chomp on Astrea’s tail while giving it a decent tug at the same time, bringing my lover to her peak in a flash.

“Nyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaahhhhhaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaa~”

I unleash a torrent of milky white liquid into her constricting passage, giving that snug tunnel three more strongest shoves while filling her up, releasing a vibrant groan to match Astrea’s cry. 

We both start panting after her body finally stops spasming. Throwing her up into the air, I rotate her and catch her again as Astrea latches onto my waist, connecting our lips together. I can hear my hot cum dripping from her pussy onto the ground as I discreetly cast Rejuvenate on both of us.

~Your turn now. Be strong. Be rough. Be dominant. Do me hard. Give me no mercy,~ I repeat her own words and add my own spin to them.

Astrea stops the kiss and begins purring into my ear as she rubs her face into mine. Louder and louder. Reaching quite the level of noise, she unwraps her legs from behind my waist and slides down onto the ground. The moment her feet touch the stone pavement, she yanks me towards herself with a lot of force.

As we begin to fall, she switches our places and I end up under her shortly before we slam into the floor with a loud thud. I release a faint groan from the impact. Glancing around, I notice that we ended up between the five ladies, all looking at us, clearly surprised.

Astrea is sitting on my belly while still releasing loud purrs. We lock gazes. She very slowly licks her lips as her eyes flash with a feral glint. She’s ready to pounce on me at any second. Oh, boy. It’s time for a ride.

She pushes herself a little to the back and leans forward, starting a long lick from my underbelly up to my very shoulders. Arriving at their height, she sinks her fangs into my flesh, bringing out another grunt from me. She continues marking me all over while I don’t hide any of my reactions.

Finished with her little game, she slides the fingers of both of her hands into my hair and pushes her mouth against mine, joining our lips in a wild kiss. She’s not purring anymore, clearly announcing that the time of being nice has ended.

Pulling back after assaulting my lips in a fierce manner, she drags her nails over my chest, from top to bottom, leaving red trails in their wake, almost cutting the skin but just barely not. What an incredible level of control.

Our gazes connect again and I smile at her. She responds with a vicious smirk that could make anyone shrink back in fear. But, I’ve already seen it a few times and know very well what comes next after this very strong catgirl decides to let her true nature take the reins.

Raising her hips up, she bumps her forehead against mine, staring me deep into the eyes.

“Hold it.”

I use my hand to aim my penis at her entrance and she lowers herself onto it just enough to lodge the tip between her cute lower lips. Quickly retracting my palm, I rest both of my arms on the sides, giving myself fully to her.

Astrea slams her waist down like a falling guillotine and impales her pussy with my cock, drawing eight more streaks on my chest at the same time. I release a vibrant groan.

“Nhnnnnn~”

With a muffled moan, clearly held back, she begins banging her butt and thighs into my waist with mighty movements. Each hit evokes more groans from me, which I’m more than happy to let her hear. And the girls surrounding us. They are even more shocked than before at what is happening in front of their eyes. But, a few of them are back to enjoying their time with the show.

“Mhnn~ Nhhnn~ Mhnn~ Nhhnn~”

Astrea’s pussy knocks onto my underbelly with loud, wet slaps from the time we’ve already spent mating. And my previous load released inside of her. Assuming the position of the dominant one, she makes herself look high and mighty, letting out only faint moans of pleasure to not muffle out my own groans from either her fierce attacks or feral bites and scratches.

Since I’m the one who is supposed to be toyed with, I don’t hold anything back and soon reach another orgasm under her rough efforts. Astrea senses it and pushes my cock deep inside her pussy, squeezing her legs together to wring me dry, at the same time, biting and pulling on the flesh of my neck.

I immediately cast another Rejuvenate and she resumes her movements, turning her side to me this time. She grabs my leg and pulls it to her chest while letting her pretty lily make out with my dick in a perpendicular position.

Her lovely but prickly bites on my thigh and calf evoke even more grunts from me. I’m just the toy for her own satisfaction right now. And it seems that Astrea has caught up on my stunt from before as she begins staring the Pantherkin girl into the eyes as she rams her tight snatch onto my cock and licks my leg.

She releases a ferocious hiss her way and falls to the side, bringing us to a scissoring position and beginning to move even more fiercely. The new way of receiving pleasure paired up with her loving bites on my calf makes me cum again in no time and her tireless pussy devours another wave of milky liquid.

Thank the Goddess for Rejuvenate because even a Primordial would surely need it when dealing with a Beastkin as I cast it again to not have my performance lacking even the tiniest bit for this important moment. If you are going to make an impression, make the best one.

Astrea gets up, catches my ankles and pushes them to the sides to achieve the fabled amazon position. She starts banging her thighs against mine, raining her pussy onto my cock from above while sweeping her gaze all over the crowd.

After a loud hiss not aimed particularly at anyone, she drives my rod deep inside herself and leans forward towards my face. Her sharp teeth clamp over my ear with great force and she tugs it a little as I release the last, finishing load into her furthest depths.

“Nhnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnmmmmmmmmmmmm~”

She keeps quivering for around ten seconds and falls flat on my chest, panting like crazy. This might have been the most intense session of my life. Yet. I let her run wild before, during our training, but we never went this hard.

I pick Astrea up and walk with her back to the sofa, dropping myself onto it. Placing her on my side, with her head resting comfortably on my lap, I throw one arm behind the backrest and use the other hand to softly scratch behind her ear. As Astrea’s breathing slowly calms down, she begins releasing satisfied purrs.

“Does anyone else have any qualms over our positions?” I shout into the hall.

And that’s when I realize that less than a half of the audience is actually listening. The vast majority of Beastkin that have been present in this chamber during this whole ritual is now entangled with each other in their own rituals, for Goddess knows how long. 

In pairs or in groups, part of the population is too busy to hear my question. Even the armed forces brought by Taro that have been standing along the walls are now using them for a slightly different purpose than to rest their backs on them, after throwing their weapons away.

“You did great.” Astrea’s voice captures my attention. “You have made a great show of power and then an even greater show of endurance. More than half of them were not able to hold back while watching us. They will surely respect us now.”

I glance around to find the three elders and they make a slow nod after my gaze lands on them, announcing their approval. I chuckle wryly at Astrea’s words and this whole situation. What the hell did I get myself into?

Astrea raises herself up. “Bring water for the alpha!” she shouts and leans into my chest, starting to rub her face into my neck while purring sweetly.

A male pure-blood Dogkin quickly brings a tray with two glasses and a jug. I pick them both and he pours water into them, scurrying back afterwards. I bring one to Astrea’s lips and sip on the other.

Another man comes to us and bows his head. “Alpha.”

“Yes?”

“We’ve found this on Micah’s body.” He hands me a big silver ring.

“What’s this?” I examine the curious item after picking it up with my fingers.

Sirgia climbs up onto the sofa and gets closer. “I know these runes. It’s a spatial inscription. That’s most likely a spatial storage.”

The man, a pure-blood Deerkin, nods. “That’s right. Besides plenty of weapons and other things, we’ve found Shatterburst inside.”

“Shatterburst?” I ask.

“It’s like a drug-artifact. A black-red crystal that pushes the body almost twice past its limits at the cost of one’s life, often used as the last struggle by cornered Beastkin. It has no effect on other races,” Astrea answers me. “And it explains how he survived my attack. He must have somehow managed to swallow it shortly before I hit him. That’s also where his personal weapon came from.”

“Right. But I haven’t seen it anywhere on him. Where was it?”

“We found it around Micah’s genitals.”

「IT’S A COCK RING?!」

I instantly cast Clean from Livelihood Magic onto the piece of jewellery and my fingers, throwing it back at the guy who handed it to me. Hell nah. I ain’t using a ring that has been on another dude’s dick, no matter how big it is. The storage, I mean, not the dick.

“Your orders?” He catches it and looks at me.

“Check the contents thoroughly. I’ll think about this later. You can go now, thank you.”

The man bows again and walks away. I throw both of my arms behind the backrest and lean my head to the back too, releasing a long sigh. As Sirgia cuddles to my side too, I can hear her pondering over something.

“I wonder if he was using it to make himself last longer.”

“Pfffffffft.”
