Chapter 404 Slipped Away
I brought eight women with me from the World of Barbarian, adding Nysia and the other four, thirteen women were now crowding on me,
Well, not really crowding. Yuko and the others who I spent the most time with at the World of Barbarian gave way for Nysia and those who wanted to be close to me.
Copying them, even the innocent Avelin who always wanted to be spoiled by me pushed Dannae forward instead. Seeing them that considerate, the four were somewhat embarrassed since they\'re still not officially my Companions. However, with how welcoming they were, the four eventually fitted right in with the group.
Elise somehow got a good conversation going with Zerina and Irja.
On the other hand, Leianne got Yuko\'s interest with her proactive approach to stay relevant and Reinys felt like she found a kindred spirit. They\'re both Princesses.
Dannae then naturally went over to Avelin and Noelle.
As for Lunaria, since I haven\'t talked to her yet, she\'s still somewhat reserved. To not let her become an outcast, Erin, who helped her when those Specialized Darkgens became desperate to kill her before they retreated, and Caila, who didn\'t have anything to do, approached her.
Looking at the four mixing in with my Companions, Nysia who stayed at my side had a satisfied smile on her lips. "They\'re fitting well, husband. And thanks to that, I got you all by myself."
Her last sentence was the most important for her of course. In any case, I also wanted some kind of alone time with her. That\'s why while the other four were in the process of integrating themselves, I quietly slipped out with Nysia.
Our destination? Our room at the top floor, of course.
Although they\'re aware of us quietly leaving to get time for ourselves, Yuko and the others let us be. It\'s not like we\'ll be gone for long. There\'s a lot of time for me to spend with them. And that\'s even if we\'re about to become busy closing Portals and killing off Dark World Transcendents.
As soon as we arrived at our room, I picked up Nysia in my arms and brought her down to our sofa bed. "You\'re working hard, wife. I better reward you, right?"
"I already got my reward in the form of you being here again. To be honest, this past month was like those 10 years I waited for you. Although those calls and Incarnation of you reduced my longing for you, feeling your breath brushing against my skin and your warmth being transferred to me is what I truly missed."
"Don\'t worry. As I promised, I will be taking you with me."
Dropping my lips on hers, with how we both longed for each other, we instantly entered the right mood.
Putting the situation of the world, the upcoming battles, the girls on the floor below us and everything else to the back of our minds, we focused on each other. Making use of this big sofa bed, the mark of our love soon stained the blanket and the bedsheet while the pieces of our clothes gradually left our bodies.
Locking her lips to keep her moans contained, Nysia and I savored the following hours.
Only when Lexie notified us through the communicator about the arrival of Krond did we let go of each other.

While we were busy upstairs, Lexie helped the girls to get their own accommodations in this tower.
In this Tower, there were a lot of floors that weren\'t used. There were those floors that contained rooms for the League\'s Core Pilots. Moreover, there were also the VIP floors that were previously used by the three Factions\' delegations back then.
Now that Elise, Lunaria and Leianne were part of the United Alliance and they\'re mostly staying here when there\'s nothing important, they kept the room for themselves.
Nonetheless, there were still empty rooms near their designated rooms. From those free VIP rooms, Lexie let the girls pick a room for themselves.
Although we\'re probably staying here for at most four days if all goes well, having their own rooms would be easy for me to be alone with any of them...
"What\'s the situation?" Nysia asked Lexie for a more comprehensive detail about the report she sent. After our intimate time, Nysia was back to being the League Head or the Alliance Head. Dealing with things professionally.
"Like Daisuke ordered, Krond was taken in custody for Interrogation. Those who arrived with him were also taken in and separated from each other. We checked their communicators and at least three of them contained evidence of them contacting the Healer Faction."
Restraining him should be Nysia\'s job but because I took her with me and spent a few sweet hours together, Yuko and Irja, as both Rank 2 Transcendents, subjected Krond and his tag-along with their Transcendent Aura, leading for their capture without any sort of battle happening.
We\'re already in the elevator, going down the floor where Krond should be. However, I\'m set at going to the floor where the four girls were located. It\'s time to make them my Companions and have them call for the Door of Transcendence.
We now have a lot of manpower so there\'s no need for me to do everything.
Nysia and Leianne will be responsible for Krond\'s interrogation so my first destination is her room.
"Well then, I\'ll leave it to you Nysia. Leianne will follow you afterward." I took a step outside the elevator door as soon as it opened.
"Un. Take your time to talk to them, I already asked them and I find their answer satisfactory. Everything now rests on you." Nysia nodded. This woman really made sure that the four had the inclination to be my Companion.
Even though I could check it by myself, my wife was that diligent in picking my concubines… Err. That sounds wrong. I also like those four and unlike with Caila and Noelle, I\'m positive that it\'s going to evolve into a romantic one. Moreover, they\'ll have the same status as everyone so it\'s not really concubine but more future wives…
"Alright. Ah. By the way, what about you, Lexie?" I nodded at her and with that exploitation of the Companion still in my mind, it clicked in my mind upon taking another glance at the tall blonde glasses lady that\'s wearing a secretary outfit.
"Huh? What about me?" With my question without any context, Lexie was puzzled as to what I was talking about.
"Do you want to become my Companion?" Using the same question I asked Noelle and Caila, I kept only one of my feet outside the Elevator to keep it from closing.
"Eh?! No… How can I? You\'re Nysia\'s…"
As expected, her reaction would be like this. I had a good impression of her and it\'s not like she had someone else at the moment. She\'s a woman too dedicated to the Primeval Aegis League.
Understanding my intention, Nysia smiled and interjected.
"You\'re right. I forgot this point. Lexie is also a possible Companion now. There\'s the example of Noelle, Caila and Ophelia who you left behind in the previous world who clearly aren\'t that romantically inclined to you."
Not romantically inclined, huh?
"Actually. I\'m not really sure if it will stay that way. This is destiny we\'re talking about, by being my Companion, I could clearly feel how they became tied to me." I started with my conjecture, "However, at the moment, that\'s how it really is, I\'m not seeing any of them as someone I will be romantically involved in… Nonetheless, they\'re now part of my highest priority. If they\'re in danger, they would no doubt become my priority even if the consequences would be dire like the destruction of a world."
I\'m clearly aware of my priority now and on the scale of things, no matter what, their safety will be my top priority. Even if what\'s at stake is the destruction of Earth.
That\'s just how I really am. Ever since the start, my priority isn\'t saving the world or worlds. Well, at the start I\'m focused on saving my own hide but then, I became aware of my attraction to Yuko and Zerina. Followed by the other girls in every world I arrived at.
"Of course, the entire decision lies on you, Lexie. We\'ll be here for a few days so take your time and don\'t be pressured. Either way, I\'m truly grateful to you for being Nysia\'s trusted aide." I continued before completing my exit at the elevator.
"… Un. I\'ll think about it. And I\'ll consult Nysia." With how I worded it, Lexie calmed down and after taking a deep breath, she nodded and stared at Nysia instead of me.
"You don\'t need to consult me. I will naturally urge you to become one of his Companion. You have a good impression of him, right? Besides, none of the Core Pilots of ours ever caught your eyes. We\'ll be leaving this world and I know how much you treasure the League, perhaps more than me. I will be entirely at ease knowing that it\'s in your hands… even more so if you can become a Transcendent soon."
Typical Nysia. Not only she urged the four to become my Companion, but she\'s now also urging her trusted aide. But her point was something that\'s also in my mind. Lexie could become like Ophelia. With our immediate departure, she could lead this world to rebuild. I don\'t know if Liam and Lyra will come with us or even the Heroes but with a Transcendent taking the helm, a new era will also usher in this world once we rid of this world of the invaders.
It\'s now starting with the Anzeans. Based on what they can learn from them, it\'s either letting them keep their settlement or we will also purge them.
As soon as the elevator door closed, I turned around and my feet naturally took me to the first door.
Knocking on the door twice, Leianne\'s somewhat worried but excited face appeared from the door.
"You\'re here…" Leianne bashfully whispered as she gradually widened the opening to let me enter.
