Misaka 17712 fell beside Misaka 11485, exhausted, and Noah kissed her forehead and smiled at her, then turned his attention to Misaka 18327, bringing her into his p. The girl was already panting with arousal before he even started removing her maid outfit.

  The three Misaka had shared dinner with Noah and the other members of his family, then followed him to his bedroom, in order to experience sex personally. Three different Misaka would take their pce tomorrow, as they agreed to all have their turn experiencing it directly.

  Noah had been worried at first, when he suddenly found himself with ten thousand girls, each with a lifespan of at most a few years, and wondered how many he would manage to save.

  Furthermore, he had feared that training the first of the Misaka might cause all the others to view him with hostility. His kinks weren’t exactly something he could hide either, as the Sisters had started exploring the isnd almost as soon as they appeared and had already found the second basement beneath each pace.

  Fortunately, the Misaka network, as they called their shared ability to transmit information to each other via electromagnetic waves, worked far better than he anticipated.

  A few conversations between the Misaka and other members of his harem had led them to be more open-minded about BDSM retionships. The previous brainwashing they had suffered since birth made them retively passive, and already used to the idea of existing to serve a purpose defined by others. Not that Noah approved of such brainwashing, even if it worked in his favor.

  What Noah didn’t know was that the Misaka network didn’t just allow the Misaka to talk over great distances. They also could share their memories, and even their sensory input.

  And they did.

  Noah had been extra gentle and affectionate when he brought the first of the Misakas to his bed, only doing some light bondage and blindfold py, and three nights ter, all the Sisters agreed to call him Master and wanted to join his harem.

  They were also spending time in the basements of the four Paces that had become their homes, using the items they found there on each other. Most of the day, you would find at least some of them engaging in lesbian BDSM pys.

  At least, they had enough sense not to broadcast it when they pyed, or all the Misakas would end up spasming on the ground, crippled by the pleasure coming from dozens or hundreds of them.

  From what Akeno told him, the six Valkyries could not compartmentalize, and once they got started, they just wouldn’t stop short of a direct order or something dangerous happening.

  That was different in the evenings, though. After dinner, all pys stopped, and only the three Misakas being with Noah broadcasted. When Noah was having sex with three Misaka, he was effectively having sex with them all. The same happened with the cuddle that came afterward.

  And after the cuddle, the three Misaka added a tex bodysuit of their favorite color under their maid outfit as part of their new uniform, as ‘proof’ that they had personally served their Master, like it was a badge of honor.

  Once dressed, they would accompany him to the garden behind the pace, where a hundred or so Sisters would wait to sign soul contracts and solve their lifespan issue. A hundred being about the maximum number of Soul Contracts Noah could create per day with his current energy reserves. They would then compete in a Janken tournament to determine which three would be next.

  All the Misakas wore on their maid uniform a tag with their name and number. They had resisted Noah’s request for them to choose names for themselves, stating that Misaka was like a family name for them, another proof of the bond they shared, and Noah had respected their opinion.

  Already, several thousands of the Sisters were making themselves useful on the SAO world, attending courts of justice as lie detectors, or doing humanitarian work by creating food and water and vaccines where they were needed.

  On that world, criminality had fallen to an all-time low, mainly thanks to Lilith revealing to everyone that they wouldn't be able to hide their crimes, and that they would be punished for them after their death.

  In addition, terrorist organizations were being crushed almost as soon as they formed.

  Things were really going well on that side, with even the media that had made him public enemy number one now keeping their heads down, as it was hard to argue against the results he and his girls provided.

  But he hadn’t pushed any reform on the Bleach/DxD+ world yet, as far as the human nations were concerned, and it was time to do something about it, if he was going to be away for years on the mysterious Xianxia world Lilith had pnned.

  Noah focused his attention back on Misaka 18327, giving her a few orgasms, and gently id her beside her two sisters. Now would normally be the time for a cuddle, but he received a message from his system.

  “I’m sorry, girls, but something came up. Take a nap for now, and we’ll snuggle when I return.”

  “Misaka understands, Master.” said Misaka 17712 with a smile. The other two nodded.

  Noah smiled back and headed for the bathroom to take a quick shower. He needed to clean up if Lilith wanted to see him in person.

  Hopefully, it wouldn't be for another stupid bet.

  Noah quickly showered and groomed himself, then teleported to the library. Honami, Hisui and Iris were there, each reading a book while sitting on a comfortable chair.

  The door opened and Misaka 14423 entered as well, the first among those wanting to spend some time reading to have cleaned herself after the sense-sharing session. The girl, wearing a pale green tex suit under her maid uniform reminding Noah of mint ice cream, blushed cutely as she saw Noah, and made an elegant curtsy, curtesy of Grayfia's training, before searching for the book she had started reading.

  "Master?" asked Hisui. "Can we help you with something? It's unusual to find you there at this time."

  "Lilith is coming in person, and my room isn't really an appropriate pce for it." smiled Noah, and the girls jolted upright, suddenly checking their own appearance. Misaka 14423 was the one who reacted the least, only setting her book on the table and watching curiously.

  "S-Should we prepare tea for Lilith-sama, or gather everyone?" asked Hisui with trepidation.

  "Offering Tea wouldn't be a bad idea." nodded Noah moving a table and some of the chairs. With the help of the girls, in seconds, they had tea and snacks ready, and the girls were standing at attention nearby.

  A few seconds ter, Lilith appeared, dressed in an elegant white and blue dress, smiling with satisfaction.

  Noah was already bowing when he froze for a second, because Lilith wasn't alone.

  Two more people accompanied her, one of them being a God. He looked like an old but vigorous man, with a warrior's body, a wild mane of white hair reaching down his back, piercing bck eyes, and a short, pointed beard. He was dressed in a simple, dark blue tunic, and he only had sandals on his feet.

  The third person was a girl of medium height, with a gorgeous face, a bob of scarlet red hair, and deep blue eyes, dressed in blue jeans and a bck top. She gnced with interest at each of the maids for a moment before looking back at him nervously. Noah recognized her instantly, and her presence gave him a clue as to who the God was.

  He completed his bow and said with utmost respect.

  "Hi, Aria. It is a pleasure to meet you in person at st. Lilith-sama, I am beyond happy to feast my eyes upon your appearance, as always. And Susanoo-sama, I assume? It is a great honor to meet you."

  Noah gestured to the table, and Hisui, Honami and Misaka 14423 hurriedly moved the chairs and created more teacups to invite them to sit.

  "Hi." nodded Aria.

  "Noah. Thank you, but we aren't staying more than a few minutes." said Lilith. "As I know you have already guessed, Aria is the reason we came to visit. I already know the answer but let me ask anyway. Are you willing to take Aria as your subordinate? That would mean assuming responsibility for the two worlds currently under her charge."

  "Of course, Lilith-sama, if that is her wish. But how will that affect the governance of that other world? Will she still be part of the council?"

  "Yes. Aria will still be free to vote how she wants, debate your decisions or make suggestions, and you will not be allowed to punish or reward her based on her actions as a member of the council." said Lilith.

  "I understand." replied Noah.

  "Young man, take good care of my daughter. I'll be angry if you make her cry, and I'll check on her often." warned Susanoo.

  "You daughter?" blinked Noah, and Aria's cheek reddened a little.

  "Susanoo had a soft heart for his Champions, especially the female ones." smiled Lilith.

  "I see. I will treat her well. And Susanoo-sama, you are welcome to visit if you wish. But please give us some prior warning, so that we'd have time to prepare to welcome you."

  "Thank you for the permission." nodded Susanoo, understanding that what Noah was really asking was for the God not to barge in while Noah was in the middle of some bedroom activity.

  "What is this?" asked Lilith, a teasing smile on her face. "You allow an old man like Susanoo to come visit you, but your own Goddess never received your permission."

  Noah looked at her poleaxed for an instant before chuckling.

  "Permission was always implied, Lilith-sama. And who am I to deny you entry on what is really your own isnd? I do not have a death wish, thank you very much." grinned Noah.

  "Better." smiled Lilith.

  Noah was about to add something, but hesitated and closed his mouth.

  "What were you about to ask?" asked Lilith.

  "…Lilith-sama, I was thinking about Aria's second world, who isn't peaceful yet, as far as I'm aware. I specialize in close to mid-range combat using cold weapons and magic, while that world has mechas fighting in space, and my skillset isn't ideal for it. I was wondering if, maybe, you could add some kind of technomancy skill to the Yin-Yang store, so that I would be able to build my own mecha, to make things more effective."

  Lilith nodded as she tapped her jawline with a dainty finger, thinking about his suggestion.

  "Eh. It is commendable for a warrior to want to forge his own weapons." nodded Susanoo. "But in that case, it would be difficult. Technomancy is really a package that would have to contain advanced multitasking, telekinesis, and a huge improvement in intelligence and knowledge. In order to remain fair, the cost of technomancy would have to be prohibitive."

  "I see. Thank you for the crification, Susanoo-sama." nodded Noah, not letting his disappointment show on his face.

  "You do not really need that, you know? You already have the key to fulfill your needs." pointed out Lilith.

  "Lilith-sama?"

  "You have the Resurrection skill. You simply aren't exploiting that ability to its full potential, because of perceived limitations that do not actually exist."

  Noah frowned for a few seconds, before the light bulb turned itself on, and his eyes widened. Nothing in the skill's description limited him to people belonging to the fiction having served as inspiration material. If he needed genius inventors to build mechas, he only had to know about them. Bulma from Dragon Ball? Rakshata from Code Geass? How about the Rider version of the Heroic Spirit Da Vinci? No, maybe not her, he might end up accidentally killing Caster Da Vinci in Chaldea if they shared a single soul. Or more likely, his System would simply tell him it couldn't do it.

  All he had to do was pay their corresponding cost in Yin points, and voi, instant genius ready to use!

  After a bit of convincing, of course.

  "I see that you understand." smiled Lilith.

  "Indeed I do." breathed Noah. It wasn't even limited to inventors. If his skill really worked that way, he could literally add to his faction any individual he could wish for.

  "You may also want to invest in golem magic, if you're interested in forging war machines." nodded Susanoo. "But that's only if you wish to py by that world's rules and manage it from the shadows. Nation leaders aren't piloting those machines, and they are just as susceptible to sudden bursts of wisdom when facing imminent death as anyone else."

  "Thank you for your advice, Lilith-sama, Susanoo-sama. I will take it to heart."

  Susanoo nodded, looked at Aria with a fond smile, and disappeared.

  "My Champion, I am satisfied with your efforts on your first world. I had only asked you to be a positive influence, but you are going above and beyond that requirement. As a reward, I will give you the possibility to resurrect people to a state long preceding their death, so you can fulfill your promise to Asuka. It shouldn't affect your actions in the rest of the Great Game anyway."

  "Thank you very much, Lilith-sama." smiled Noah as he bowed to her, and she nodded to him, then disappeared.

  The girls rexed as the gods were gone, aside from Aria who instead felt more nervous. Noah smiled to her and gestured to the table.

  "Hisui, Misaka, would you mind asking Kurumi, Chris and Lichty to come, please? Do not tell them about Aria being there, let it be a surprise."

  "Misaka understands."

  "Yes. We'll be right back!" grinned Hisui, her ears twitching in anticipation.

  "Thanks. Honami, could you prepare a room for Aria, please? As close as possible as the one belonging to Takina or the one we reserved for Chisato."

  "Yes, Master."

  "Thank you."

  As they left, Aria sat down on the chair, and Noah served her tea before sitting in front of her.

  "Thanks Noah." said Aria, rexing a little. "I'll be honest, I was half expecting you to push me down right here and there."

  "What do you take me for? …Don't answer that question!" chuckled Noah. "It's not that I'm not tempted, Aria. You are gorgeous after all… I assume from what Chisato and Takina told me that you are a lesbian?"

  "I am." nodded Aria after a short hesitation.

  Although she wasn't so certain anymore. She did feel some attraction toward Noah, now that she was seeing him in person, and bmed his Charisma and handsome face for it.

  Noah simply nodded.

  "And yet, you came and delivered yourself into my hands, despite expecting me to push you down, as you said. Is it about Chisato and Takina?"

  "Yes." sighed Aria. "I miss them so much, and I know that they will live here even after that crisis is resolved, so… As long as I can be with them, I'll endure being your sve girl."

  "That's a great proof of love if I ever saw one." nodded Noah. "I won't make you my sve, Aria. Not unless you want it."

  "You won't?" asked Aria, surprised.

  "You're a fellow Champion, so you already have abilities like teleporting or detecting lies or speaking all nguages. I do not necessarily need to grant you the other skills for you to be able to contribute to overseeing our worlds, and I'm not worried about your safety. I also have no concerns about your loyalty, with Susanoo vouching for you."

  "Yes. Thank you for your trust." nodded Aria.

  "Ho-we-ver." grinned Noah. "Only the members of my harem are allowed to have romantic or physical retionships with each other. With the exception of your retionship with Chisato and Takina, since it is already established. So, if you ever want to be intimate with, let's say, Rias… Artoria… Asuna…"

  "Oh, you devious bastard." compined Aria. "You already know that I won't be able to resist that kind of temptation!"

  "Providing incentives and deals you can't resist worked well with me so far, Aria." chuckled Noah. "But you may want to take Takina's case as an example. She was and still is a lesbian, but as far as she is concerned, I am an exception to the rule, and she had a lot of fun being my sub after the first few weeks. I do not see why it would be different for you."

  "Yeah." nodded Aria. "I won't deny that her feedback has been an important factor in my decision. Same with living together with so many hot girls, since you allow intimacy between them. Us, I guess."

  "If it can make things easier for you, I will give you a few weeks to get used to living here, and when we start, I will ask the girl of your choosing to help with your training. Maybe more than one girl. Assuming you do want to join my little harem, of course. If not, I wouldn't mind a ptonic retionship with you as a little sister."

  "That's a lie. You would mind." snorted Aria.

  "Touché." acknowledged Noah.

  "…It's fine. I knew this would happen when I decided to subordinate myself to you. It's better than I expected, really, if you give me some time and get a sexy girl involved in my… training."

  The library's door opened, and Kurumi entered. The girl's blue eyes widened as she saw Aria.

  "Kurumi!" cried Aria as she jumped from her chair and sprinted to the girl to hug her.

  "A-Aria? What are you doing here?" blurted out Kurumi.

  "I missed you girls too much, so I agreed to become Noah's subordinate to come live here."

  "Ah?"

  "I'm going to leave you girls alone, as there are some waiting for me." said Noah. "Tomorrow morning, Aria, I'll give you a tour and introduce you to everyone. Well, maybe not all of the Misaka Sisters. Then we'll speak about the status of your two worlds, and we'll get to work."

  "Yes, thank you, Noah." smiled Aria.

  "Good night, girls." said Noah as he teleported back to his room. The three Misaka had just got out of the shower and wore some of Noah's T-shirts, and nothing else.

  Noah smiled as he undressed to his underwear and entered the bed, and the Sisters piled on him.

  "So, I guess Misaka 14423 shared her senses with you girls?"

  "Yes, Master. Misaka is very impressed. Misaka wanted Lilith-sama to know that she is grateful for helping the Sisters and letting us live here, but 14423 didn't dare speak." said Misaka 17712.

  "I think she already knows." smiled Noah as he ruffled her hair. "You can convey your gratitude by contributing to the task she entrusted us with."

  Misaka 17712 nodded, and id on top of his body, pcing her ear over his chest. She wanted to listen to the sound of his heartbeat.

  …

  Takina tried to keep a stern expression as she watched the three trembling girls kneeling at her feet. She wore tight bck leather pants, a bck leather corset with cups covering her breasts, fingerless gloves, and had a mean-looking crop in her hand.

  The three magicians, on the other hand, were naked, their hands cuffed behind their backs.

  "I am going to give you one chance, and one chance only. You will tell me your names, which organization you belong to, and why you attacked Arisa Meigo. We'll decide what to do with you afterwards. If you refuse, I promise you that you will become intimately familiar with every. single. gear of piece of furniture of this basement. Yes, including the many, many dildoes. I will break you, and then you will tell me everything I want to know."

  "Where are we even? Why do you have that…?" started to ask the reddish-brown haired one, but she flinched as Takina spped the crop against her own thigh, making an intimidating sound.

  "I am the one who asks the questions. You have ten seconds to decide."

  "Alright, alright! I'll talk!" shouted the blonde haired one.

  "What is your name? I will warn you that I can tell when someone lies, and the instant you do…"

  Takina waved with her crop to the rest of the basement, and the three girls shivered.

  "I-I am Marie Spearhead." said girl with long wavy blonde hair, who specialized in water magic.

  "Marybelle Bckball." replied the one with reddish brown hair. The st one with long straight green hair sighed and looked down.

  "Jane Elves."

  "We are Witches of the Anglican Church." said Marie.

  "And you attacked Arisa because?" asked Takina.

  "She is a Saint, and she will start a war." replied Marie.

  "…Saint or not, I am pretty sure that she doesn't intends to start a conflict. The girl only wants to sing."

  "Our Master didn't tell us why exactly she is dangerous." muttered Marybelle.

  "…are you guys idiots? Someone tells you to kill a girl for… reasons, and you blindly follow orders without first investigating to see if they are justified?"

  "We weren’t going to kill her!” protested Jane. “We were going to kidnap her and bring her back to Engnd.”

  “Which is barely better… And what about that fire user who ran away? Another witch like you?”

  “Our Master didn’t run away!” angrily protested Marybelle. “He only made a tactical decision!”

  Marybelle flinched, her budding anger instantly extinguished, when Takina hit her crop against the palm of her left hand, producing another spping sound.

  Inwardly, Takina was somewhat amazed that she could produce such intimidation without even touching the three girls. Granted, they were naked and cuffed, locked in an intimidating basement. But the way they shuddered and looked at her like she was Freddy Krueger, waving a bunch of bdes in front of them, felt a bit exaggerate.

  Then she remembered the 20 Charisma attribute points she got from Noah. She had noticed that since she signed the soul contract, she seemed to have an easier time convincing people. But only now did she see how Charisma could also work this way.

  “A tactical decision, you say. What’s his name?”

  “…”

  None of the witches answered. They only lowered their heads and trembled.

  “I did warn you about the consequences of not answering or lying.” Said Takina.

  “Please!” begged Marie. “We can’t tell you his name. There are magic spells and curses that can be used against someone, using their names.”

  Takina nodded reluctantly, understanding that they would not give up their Master’s name even if she started subjugating them. She would have to complete their training to obtain it, and she didn’t think she would have time for that. She wasn’t even sure she wanted to.

  “I am going to discuss your cases with the others. I expect you three to still be kneeling here when I return.”

  The three girls nodded, and Takina disappeared.

  Marybelle exhaled slowly, her body rexing a little. Their situation was still very bad, but the immediate danger was gone for now.

  Marie stood and quickly walked to the heavy wooden door that was the only way out.

  “It’s not locked!” cried Marie as the door opened, and Jane stood as well.

  Marybelle followed suit due to simple peer pressure. She didn’t think their escape would be so easy, but she didn’t want to be the only idiot staying in this dreadful basement, and her staying might make Jane and Marie hesitate and ruin their chance to escape, assuming they had any.

  “How about we try to find our clothes first?” asked Jane.

  “Like we’re even going to be able to put them on with those damn cuffs." retorted Marie. "I’d rather suffer some public embarrassment and get the police’s help than stay in this basement. Our Master can erase their memories after he rescues us.”

  Running up the stairs, Marybelle and the others found themselves in what looked like a normal living room. The door leading outside was also unlocked, and they burst outside.

  Only to stop in their tracks, freezing in terror.

  Three people were having tea just outside the house, one of them being the very same young woman who they were trying to escape from.

  And she wasn't amused.

  She turned to the others.

  "…What do you think, Chisato, Hitomi? Do we turn those three idiots who can't even follow simple orders into sves for your Master? Are they even worthy of the honor?"
