"Dear, is this your home? It's a very big place, your people must be rich"
Seems she's calmed down from the earlier events, that's good.
"Yeah, let's go inside so i can introduce you to the others living here"
She looked at me curiously, ready to see who i was living with.
I already sent a mental message to Shion to have all the girls meet me in the living room.
~
Right now all the girls are sitting down, waiting for me to speak.
"Rachnee, this is Miia, she's been living with me for a few days already so if you need any help venturing this place you can ask her. This little bundle of energy is Papi, she too has been living with me for a few days, though the only thing on her mind is playing and having fun, so i doubt you'll find much help in other things."
While i introduced them, Miia blushed when i mentioned how we've been living together and papi just jumped on my back.
Rachnee introduced herself while i noticed sparks flying between her and Cerea.
"Cerea here has just recently joined, but she's very nice, i hope you two get along. I'm sure you will, right?"
i didn't want to be bothered with the same petty squabbles they had in canon, i used a firmer voice to let the message get across that i don't want any fighting.
They nodded quickly and calmed down a little.
"So, Eden, is what they're telling me true? How are you able to adopt monsters, and attack humans without any repercussions?"
Seems like Rachnee is starting to find some oddities.
But before i could answer her, a cute little birdie spoke first.
"Big sister Shion lives here too, so Papi thinks Eden is a important person!" Papi, she's taken quite a liking to Shion since they've met.
"Shion? As in THAT Shion?"
Shion is pretty famous in the Monster world, considering
*Step* *Step* *Step*
"The one and only!" Seems like someone wanted to make a big entrance.
"How high ranking do you have to be to have Ms. Shion live with you?!"
*Knock* *Knock*
Hmm? Who's here.
Using my divine sense i saw that Smith and the MON were here.
'I thought she wouldn't be able to make it today…i guess this is killing two birds with one stone.'
Opening the door i was immediately engulfed into a hug by Doppel as she rubbed her cheek on my chest.
"Haha! For someone so bold, you become like a docile little kitten in his hands" Zombina seems happy, that's good.
"Yo! Didn't expect you all to come over today, but i guess this works out."
I could notice Manako looking at me out of the corner of her eyes—sorry—eye.
And Tionishia, she's really tall, but she's pretty and very nice.
"Ah, well, the girls finished their work early so i promised them to come here!"
"Tch, our work? you dumped all of your work onto us and we had to force you to wake up so we could come here" I could hear Zombina mumble under her breath at Smiths comment.
After that i welcomed them inside and they also came to the living room.
"Oh! Ms. Shion is here as well, i didn't expect you to still be here, i thought you would've went back to accompany your king"
Smith saw Shion and talked to her, though Smith was still a little scared of her after their first encounter, with Shions more oppressive aura out at the time.
Doppel laughed at the second part of Smiths words, with a playful look in her eye,
"Hey, Ms. Smith, in order to pay me back for the shitty family you first put me in, could you tell me who exactly Eden is, and why he's allowed all these privileges?"
Rachnee asked, not out of doubt, but just curious who the man she loves is.
'I guess i have that effect on women'
That proves it.
"Ah, i've been meaning to ask that myself. I have the highest level security access, but even i couldn't see some of his information!"
The girls looked at me with shock and confusion, save for Shion, Papi, and Doppel.
Papi wasn't that invested in this, she just wanted to cling on my back, but i knew she was listening by how her ears were perked. And the other two already knew.
"Guess the game is up, isn't it, Master?"
"I guess it is, Shion, i guess it is."
The girls just looked even more confused.
"Why all the looks, is this how you act in the presence of your king?" I had a playful smile on my face as I released some of my aura, The King Of Monsters, mixed with a little Entity King, washing the girls in feelings of awe, as they felt an intense need to bow.
Of course, i won't let that happen, i only like seeing my women bend if it's in the bed.
"Y-y-you…" That seemed to be the same reaction that all the girls had.
Even smith, who wasn't a monster, had the feeling to kneel, but that's only because she's close to me.
In fact, every monster alive kneeled when i released my aura, it's the connection they feel with their King that they will know when i release my aura, no matter the distance.
I didn't stop them from kneeling though, just my women.
"Ah, Eden, i think you've broken them." Doppel said as she crawled on my back, now empty because papi got off from the shock.
Listening to her thoughts, she felt that being on her Kings back like that was rude.
"*Sigh* And this is why i didn't want to tell you, listen, don't change the way we used to act, just because of something like this. If i really had a problem with any of you, do you really think Shion would have let you come anywhere close to me? All of you are very important to me, so i hope you don't disappoint me."
After i said that the girls seemed to ease up, but with that came another wave of emotions.
Love.
The girls already had a huge affection for their King, even if they haven't seen him. Every monster has some form of it for me, they just don't know who i am. Now that my identity is revealed, they feel even better about their feelings for me.
Cerea's devotion for me broke through its limits, i could also feel the pride she had in her heart about being the best of her race, being the first to serve the King personally.
Miia herself had a crush on the King, which split off into having one on me. Now they we are revealed to be the same person, her feelings fused together and she's also broken though the barrier of love.
Papi seemed more comfortable with everything again and hopped on my back when Doppel made room for her since they're both small.
I'm glad to see them getting along.
Rachnee seemed happy, i don't know exactly why, but i can tell her love me grew as well.
Zombina, Tionishia, and Manako also had awe in their eyes, but Manako looked insecure about herself still, so i'll have to talk to her about that.
And Smith…she just had a funny look on her face, at first she was a little afraid that i'd have a problem with her and how she was acting, but she calmed down when she saw the look i have her, letting her know that she was just fine the way she was.
"Well, i guess it's time to eat now, isn't it?"
~
-8:00pm (20:00)-
Currently i'm sitting in a hidden room inside the house, the same room Maki appears in when she leaves Yggdrasil.
I made dinner for the girls and talked to everyone, they got tired from all the food and are sleeping in different rooms.
Smith and the MON stayed here, i'll advance my relationship with them over the time they'll be here since they're on break.
Now it's time to summon my little maids~
