After finished having dinner, all of them went to their respective rooms to take a rest after the long battle they just have with the demons. Even though Druid Oz don’t really need to sleep and he could stay wake up by replenishing his stamina with his mana, but since he didn’t know whether this clone body of his will recover or not if something happened because of the constant use of mana, he’s been giving the body some sleep daily.

But even though he’s sleeping, before he sleeps, Druid Oz still continues to monitor the progress of his summoned insect familiars that he ordered to search through the Eastaria continent to find the demonic emperor’s seal fragment.

With the information that he got from the Slime clone, he knew that they’re going to need to find that demon emperor’s seal fragment as soon as possible before the demons found it first. There are several possibilities of what the demons will use the demon emperor’s seal fragment for, but whatever it is, it will remain as a great threat for not only the Tarot empire but the whole world as well.

That’s why, as the one entrusted with the Eastaria continent, Druid Oz is trying his best to recover the demon emperor’s seal fragment before the demons have their hands on it.

But somehow, Druid Oz couldn’t help but shake the terrifying possibility of the demons in the Eastaria continent already possess the demon emperor’s seal fragment. Druid Oz thought that they might already possess it, that’s why they’re sending the demons to the Ablux continent now since they’ve already achieved their goal here.

The reason why the demons came to the Eastaria continent and wage war with the kingdoms and the empires inside it is in order to search for the demon emperor’s seal fragment, and to strengthen and increase their number. Druid Oz is sure with that deduction of his, that’s why he’s trying his best to search for the demon emperor’s seal fragment with his summoned insects.

But Druid Oz still believes that the demons are still not found the demon emperor’s seal fragment yet because they still sent their army to search through some locations since they won’t be ordering their army to do so if they have found the demon emperor’s fragment, Druid Oz continues to spread his summoned insects to search through the Eastaria continent.

It will take a long time since a continent is huge, but that’s also the same for the demons, that’s why for now, all he could do is just continue to use his summoned insects to search and keep on letting them increase their number in the same time to constantly increase the speed of the search.

After monitoring the search for about forty minutes, Druid Oz’s consciousness started to fade and he entered a deep slumber.

“Ngh…” Druid Oz let out a small groan as he wakes up, his muscles felt sore, and there seems to be some weight on his shoulders and on top of his body.

(What is this warmth?) (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz slowly opens his eyes and found out the surprising and dangerous situation he is in.

Azaline in his left, Claria in his right, while Geeta is lying on top of him.

“S-Since when…? Why… did it become like this…?” Muttered Druid Oz as he’s having a hard time processing the scene before him.

***********************

—Last Night—

After going to their respective rooms, Druid Oz slept for 1 hour, but not the three girls.

“E-Eh…? You… What are you…?” (Azaline)

“Y-You too… What are you…?” (Claria)

Azaline just that realized what an embarrassing side she just show towards Druid Oz and how she one-sidedly blame him is unforgivable, so she wanted to apologize to Druid Oz, while at the same time, she’s curious what he’s doing after what just happened, and whether it’s time for her to take a step or maybe several steps forward between them as well.

While on the other hand, Claria is also embarrassed for how she loses her composure in front of Druid Oz and thought that she would like to apologize to him and maybe spend some time together chatting with each other as well.

But when they walked out of their room and went to Druid Oz’s room, the both of them coincidentally meet each other instead.

“”Ah…”” Looking at each other, they immediately realized that they’ve come to in front of Druid Oz’s room for a similar reason.

“About what I said in the dinner… Sorry… I overstep the line… It’s the matter between you and Ren, I should have read the atmosphere and didn’t say anything about it. But I got carried away by the mood and said such insensitive things, please forgive me,” Claria apologized as she bows her head towards Azaline.

“I-It’s fine… We… Got even closer because of what you said as well,” (Azaline)

(Ah… I don’t know whether I wanted to hear that or not…) (Claria)

“I’m sorry as well. I said such rude things to you because of my jealousy. Anyway, we never have a proper introduction to each other, aren’t we? I’m Azaline Elvenheim, the current queen of the Elvenheim kingdom. Nice to meet you, general princess. You can just call me Azaline,” Azaline stretches her hand forward, offering a handshake.

“I’m Claria Galhala, the general princess of the kingdom. Nice to meet you, Azaline. You can just call me Claria as well,” Answered Claria with a kind smile as she accepts Azaline’s handshake.

They converse with each other for a while, and it turns out that the both of them got into a friendly term with each other quicker than even the both of them expected.

“It’s kind of weird talking like this here, let’s enter together, I guess?” (Claria)

“True, let’s go,” (Azaline)

But somehow, they’re thinking of having a conversation in Druid Oz’s room, and as if it’s a custom, the both of them erased their presence and entered in stealth-like thieves or assassins as if it’s natural.

But when they entered the room, it turns out someone had defeated them and have taken the headstart over them.

(Geeta!!!) (Azaline)

***********************

Druid Oz inhales a deep breath to stabilize and regain his composure, but when his heart is about to stabilize, his keen ears couldn’t help but capture the sounds of the three beautiful girls’ breathe.

(T-This is not good… I need to go away… But how!?) (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz’s mind once again entered a state of turmoil.

He tried to shift his gaze to another direction, but wherever he shifted his gaze to, it will end up in one of the three girls’ sleeping faces.

(Calm down, Ren Arken! Calm down! I need to… Calm down…) (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz decided to close his eyes again and inhales a deep breath and attempt to stabilize his mind and heart once again. After regaining some of his composure, Druid Oz started to think about how to go away from this perilous situation.

If he carelessly moves, one of them or all of them might wake up, and he’s not sure what is the right reaction to give them. But as he’s thinking about his escape plan, the question of how did they managed to enter his bed without getting him noticed started to take over his mind.

(Did I let my guard down too much? But didn’t this happened with Edreale before…?) (Druid Oz)

“Now’s not the time to think for that, should I use a clone and switch position with it…? What is this… Why do I felt kind of reluctant to do so…?” (Druid Oz)

Just as Druid Oz is getting troubled by the options that appeared in his head, the most worst-case scenario suddenly occurs.

The sound of footsteps suddenly get near the room’s door, and not long after, the door of the room got opened. Druid Oz that got too absorbed in what course of action he should take in that situation failed to notice the sound of the footsteps as his keen ears are too focused on the breathing sound of the three beautiful girls.

“Ren! This is not time to sleep! The noble army is marching-” The Galhala King stopped his words midway as he saw the scene inside Druid Oz’s room.

“E-Eh?” (Druid Oz)

“Oh my…” The Galhala Queen that came together with the Galhala King and the prime minister, Allomere, covered her mouth with her hand and let out a surprised voice even though her eyes seem to be not surprised by the scene at all.

“HAHAHAHAHA!! How bold! How great! Three great beauties in your arms in one night, as expected of Ren! HAHAHAHAHA!!” The Galhala King laughed heartfully as he spits out misunderstandable words with his loud voice.

But on the other hand, Druid Oz is getting goosebumps because of the terrifying aura leaking from the Galhala King’s company.

“Seems like you’re enjoying your time, Ren…”
