While Others Cultivate, I Use My Multiverse System

Returning from the meeting, my head was filled with plans for the future. Even though the appearance of the stone-rich dungeons seemed to put a wrench in my already existing schemes, in fact, I couldn't be any happier with this event. Omitting all the stuff that it could mean in the long term, I had now absolutely the best alibi if anyone were to start looking into the source of the stones that my faction would soon push to the market. 

Now, anyone who would be interested in the source of my stones could be told off with something among the lines of a dungeon luckily appearing on the lands of my faction. The other way to go around it would be to flaunt that the huge number of the believers of my faith chosen to venture to the existing dungeons, offering this huge number of stones to the chapel, in hopes of obtaining a blessing. 

And it went without saying that the price of such blessing, which would simply mean carving the stones out and turning them into an actual useful item, would happen at a steep price.

At this point, I was inclining to go with this idea. Not only would that allow me to obtain a foreign source of the magic stones that would make it even harder for anyone to track the true origins of my products, but I could also only claim that the process of carving actually had something to do with my faith, stopping anyone for a moment from attempting to replicate the results. 

But all of that was nothing but a song of the future. Right now, with those plans brimming in my head, I made my way back to the basement. After all, I made a promise.

Passing through the doors, I finally managed to return to Ayda's world. Most likely busy with delivering the stones to Huskarl or doing some other kind of task, my girl was nowhere to be seen. But instead of panicking, I allowed myself to sit down on the bed before falling down with my back on it. 

For the first time since this day started, I could take a moment to let my body have some rest. Starting with my eyes completely empty at the simple structure of the ceiling, I closed my eyes for a moment…

Only to be suddenly forced awake with a huge load landing on my belly!

"Wha…"

With all the air escaping from my lungs along with this broken word, I forced my eyes open, only to see a familiar and surprisingly happy face of Ayda.

"Cough, cough… What made you so happy?"

Clearing my throat from the saliva that got stuck during the unexpected attack, I reached with my hand towards Ayda's head. Brushing my fingers through her soft hair, I could hear her humming slightly.

"I brought those stones to Huskarl. Just thinking about the face she made… Pfff…."

Bursting out with a lovely giggle, Ayda snuggled up to my chest. Rubbing her cheek against my breast, she conveniently hid her face from my eyes.

"Is that really the case?"

Full of doubts, I could only ask. Even though it would be an easy thing to just read her aura to learn what she actually had in mind, I preferred to keep her emotions the same mystery as they would be to me if I never became a witch in the first place. For some reason, this made me experience Ayda in her full glory, instead of being spoiled with all the changes to her mood in advance, making me unable to properly enjoy her character.

"Okay, okay, I submit. I just couldn't get enough of your sleeping face…"

Raising her head and resting her chin on top of my chest, Ayda looked me directly in the eyes while putting a mischievous smile on her full, red lips. Coating my arms around her back, I just brought the girl closer to me, gently hugging her to my heart.

"So? What face did she make? Or rather, what's the actual reason for you to be so relaxed? Even without reading your emotions, I can tell that the signs of tension that plagued your body before I went to my world, are now all gone."

Rubbing my hand against the soft fabric of the cloth covering Ayda's back, I leaned my head forward, stealing a quick peck from her lips.

"You won't miss anything, won't ya?"

Showing her teeth in a wide smile, Ayda locked her hands behind my neck before suddenly rolling to the side. Pulled by her grab, I ended up on top of the girl, with her breasts making for the finest pillow for my head. Moving her hands from behind my neck to the top of my head, Ayda started caressing my scalp while keeping my face buried in her soft bust.

"I don't really know how did you manage to do it, but if Huskarl words were anywhere near the truth, then we don't need to worry about the wizards anymore. Just with the stones that you brought along, she claimed she can set up a barrier around this village that would last for at least a year."

Gently brushing her fingers through my hair, Ayda unknowingly started to lul be right back to sleep with the heartbeat that my eyes, tightly pressed against her chest, could easily pick up. Coated in her welcoming warmth, hearing the good news that would finally take some worries off my back regarding Ayda's world, I could feel my consciousness melting away.

"And with an entire year, I can easily turn this place into an impregnable force with all the means that I have at hand now, not to speak about the new strengths that I will find in the future…"

Even though we were in a pretty intimate position, I felt no lust surfacing in my mind. Even though it was the same warmth of Ayda's skin that would usually fire my instincts up, for some reason, right now I just couldn't get enough of the peace that her embrace offered.

"That's right. But now, you need to rest. Just like you said I was stiff before, I can tell how tired you are."

Moving her hands from the top of my head to both of my cheeks, Ayda leaned her head forward, attacking my lips. Contrary to my previous peck, her kiss lasted for a lot longer, only adding to my sleepiness with how gentle it was. 

"Now, sleep. I won't let you go until you are fully rested!"
