When Olivia finally woke up. She found herself sleeping within a bedroll, dressed in her usual combat uniform whilst Asai was quietly praying to the shrine at the end of the hall.

Finishing his prayers of appreciation and thanks. As his future children were literally ensured to having healthy and able bodies. Asai rose from his position and met Olivia's brown gems with his own eyes.

"Morning sunshine, enjoyed your nap?"

"Y-yes! I enjoyed my nap very well, also... What we did before I fell asleep, was incredible!"

Barging through the door and interrupting Olivia's thought process, Sora quickly inspected their get up and the lack of urgency in Olivia's expression. Falling to her knees and pouting in disappointment, she dhan realized she was too late, as the game of tag seemed to have ended already.

Ignoring her obvious desires, as his lust was entirely sated. Especially after being wrung dry by Kami. Asai moved on to his next objective.

"Sora, good timing. Tell me, do you have an update on the local dungeons?"

Forcefully dragging her mindset and priorities away from procreation and back to her duty to the nation and king. Sora cleared her mind before replying.

"Your Majesty, whilst the dekans were indeed our enemies. It appeared they had taken the liberty of clearing our dungeons, utilizing them as training grounds and food stores. Thus, we currently do not have any dungeons on the verge of breaking-" Seeing his expression crumble somewhat, as he was close to deciding on forcing another dungeon portal with his blood, and risking it all. Sora continued. "-However, I had received unconfirmed reports from the hunters who would hunt close to the northern mountains, that they had sighted a dungeon that was open and inviting."

"What colour was the portal?" 

Hearing such a question, Sora became slightly confused. As all recorded dungeons within her kingdom's history had been black in colour.

"Your Majesty, it was black..."

Asai turned his back towards Sora, facing the shrine once more. Unsure whether they had the same customs here, but he placed multiple plates of fruits and flowers as offerings before marching past the two women and making his way back to Par'Talucca. 

"We're heading back, lets gather the team before making our way north. In the meantime, have your scouts confirm the position of the dungeon for me."

Quick to follow him out, the two swiftly left the shrine as the doors gently closed by themselves.

Kami reappeared, wearing only a oversized tunic that she stole from Asai's [Inventory] still having his scent lingering upon it, she glanced over towards the food he had left. Smiling in joy, as such a custom had been long since forgotten, ever since the ritual became more about offering silver coins rather than food. 

Her memories went back towards the children who used to visit her, wishing, praying and leaving sweet caramel-covered-apples for her to enjoy.

Her gaze lingered upon the door, thinking back on the humans who had just visited her.

"Human, I don't know who you are... But father doesn't seem pleased, that you had the balls to decline his offer, refusing his blessings... For your sake, I'll pray you make it back here one day, to visit me and play with me once more~"

...

Sneaking back into the palace, Sora was extremely filled with joy as the people sang praises about their new lord and king. Eager to please her new monarch, she confidentally strolled through the palace-halls, ordering the servants into preparing refreshments and the bath. Something she was sure the man would enjoy. As it was actually a naturally formed hot-spring, that only required maintenance here and there.

Entering the pent-house again, Asai's attention immediately landed on Robin who stood menacingly, with her back towards the man. Seeing her long ears twitch, it was clear to everyone that she had long since noticed their presence.

She dynamically turned around to reveal her outfit, being a uniform in which shinobi typically wore. Striking a pose as her thrust one hand out in a peace-sign, whilst the other went towards her eye that had divinity coursing within it.

"OMAE WA MOU SHINDIDEI RURU!"

Asai almost had a heart attack right then and there. Freezing up in great confusion and shock.

"H-how does Robin know that phrase!? S-she's also from Earth!? HUH?"

Out from the corners, Mel and Bethel fell out of the wardrobes. And whilst Mel was more concerned about the bump on her head, Bethel was clasping her stomach in laughter.

Connecting the dots, adding 2 to 2. Asai immediately figured that it was simply a prank orchestrated by Bethel.

"Asai~Well, did you like it? Bethel told me that men really like it when their lovers say that phrase. Apparently, it means welcome home darling!"

Bonking the girl on the head.

"I have no idea as to what you've just said. It honestly just sounded gibberish to me. Although I appreciate the gesture, please speak to me in only a language I can understand..."

Robin pouted a little before nodding.

"And also, your outfit is adorable. It looks really good on you." Fixing her mood back up with compliments and head pats, the half-elf immediately recovered her spirits.

From the corner of his eyes, he saw Bethel peeping over the bed frame. Trying to analyse and scrutinize his reaction and expressions.

"Is she onto me? That I could possibly be an other-worlder too? Well tough luck kid! You'll be saving the world on your own when the time comes. My lazy-ass will be enjoying the peace and sunshine after I'm done with the dragonkins."

"It's good to see you in a good mood Bethel. Because I've just received reports of a newly sighted dungeon appearing north of Par'Talucca. Before we make our way there, lets have a quick spar you and I... Just a little warm up...  Come!"

Asai, although having only just returned to the palace through the front doors. Once again, leapt out of the balcony... 

Shortly followed by Robin who wanted to join in on the fun, and then Bethel. Who was somewhat regretting her prior actions of setting up the little prank.
