BXBX NOVEL Chapter 144 143: Two Weeks (2)
Easy; both to live, and to lose time unknowingly.
We had rapidly gotten ourselves to the next break day, and I recalled the last few days schedule, which would likely be what we would do every day of this first year.
Wake up early, enjoy either a hearty breakfast or throw something together because Leone and I were \'preoccupied\', make our way to the Academy.
Then our classes, during which I would kick Anput\'s chair incessantly whenever she dozed off, making sure the Jackalkin was awake by any means.
Combat Class was rather fast as well, as Anput and I tended to spar more often then not, and Jahi would guide Leone; our professors left us alone when we did that, since they saw that Anput and I were truly sparing, grinding each others rough edges away, while Jahi was more than capable of teaching Leone the basics.
Of course, during any inter weapon training, both Jillian and Greselda tended to be my partners, and occasionally Draka\'s golden haired maid Poshka, who would inform me of how Fresca was doing during her pregnancy, as well as any other related news to her Mistress\' \'hunting\'.
I have to commend Draka on that front; she was currently engaged to Rialo, had both Fresca and Poshka, and was now courting Miss Grangeri, the studious woman in our magic Theory Class.
Apparently Draka was also rather far along with her as well; they were planning a date for the next off day.
Besides that, she had also slowly sunk her claws into a widowed shopkeep, who, although a little older, seemed rather flattered that such a young woman was that interested in her.
While I was giving her props on that front for acting on her desires, I found myself wondering how she\'d keep all these women satisfied.
I mean, Jahi and I were all over one another when we had the chance initially, and now, what with Anput and Leone being with us, we had different outlets for our lust.
Though, I did remember my only maxed skill being [Nymphomania], so I doubt we were a good benchmark for a group of lovers...
Besides finding Draka\'s situation entertaining, I enjoyed sparring against Jillian, since I had slowly \'caught\' up to the insufferable woman, making our matches rather even in skill.
Which meant that I had scored quite a few painful blows on her.
However, the woman was an enigma; with each blow dealt to me, sadistic glee erupted on her face. With each blow I dealt to her, a spark of lust lighted her eyes.
I had no idea what to think about her, so I decided to fall back on the good \'ole reliable \'let future me deal with that shit\'.
Works every time!
Then we would get home and unwind, be it through some more sparring, some shopping that was of just Leone and I, cooking, baking...
As well as other, more carnal ways of unwinding.
Like letting a thirsty vampire bite one side of your neck...
Or letting the territorial-ish Jackalkin bite the other side of your neck...
Topped off with a sadistic Demoness wanting something darker.
Fun!

Jahi PoV
Since it was our off day, I rolled out of my bed before staring down at Kat, who was fast asleep.
Her fair skin was red, both from my hands and from the little whip laying beside her.
Besides that, her face was slack from pleasure and pain as she lay on the soft bed, her eyes closed.
Chuckling at her sprawled out figure, I bathed as quick as I could before dressing myself, slinking from our room.
Tossing my coin pouch between my hands, I double checked my appearance before nodding, exiting the cottage.
It was barely dawn, and as much as I wanted to lay in bed being warmed by Kat\'s soft body, I had a few things I needed to get.
Expensive things, but things I deemed necessary.
Humming gently to myself, I walked through the quiet streets of the Capital, enjoying the sparkly occupied roads and just opening stores.
Some stalls were starting up their grills, preparing for the morning rush when everyone woke up, while others were displaying their goods, making sure everything looked appealing on their small counters.
As a Demoness, I drew quite a few stares; curious ones, afraid ones, lustful ones...
However, people rarely approached Demons; we were not only taller than most, but also rather strong compared to other races as well.
If I had to guess, Professor Thorn and I would be matched in terms of raw strenght.
Besides, seeing such an imposing figure like myself, why risk approaching?
I was almost seven feet tall, my horns were rather sharp, and I had a blade strapped to my waist.
So, color me surprised when I turned from one street to another and collided with a armored woman, her dark green skin covered in both scars and tattoos.
Glaring up at me, the Orc refused to move from in front of me, making me shrug.
Stepping to the side, I was going to continue on, but...
Sighing, I stared down at the glowering woman, her dark yellow eyes meeting mine.
"Can I help you?"
Wanting to be done with this as soon as possible, I waited for a response, only to not get one.
Giving her another moment, I nodded before grabbing her shoulder, shoving her to the side.
Considering her heavy plate mail armor, I was rather surprised when she didn\'t fall down from the shove, but oh well.
Continuing forwards, I made my way towards the store I wanted to visit, only to feel someone grab my shirt.
Stopping, I glanced over my shoulder to see the Orc behind me, making me sigh again.
"What?"
Still, nothing.
Keeping my eyes locked on hers, I was contemplating drawing my blade and skewering her throat, but...
Well, a murder in broad day wouldn\'t be easy to cover.
"Are ye Jahi Asmodia?"
Her voice was deep and raspy, and she had a similar accent to Lesnera, the Dwarven Cook back home.
"Yup. Don\'t think there are many gold horned demons around."
Narrowing her eyes, she tilted her head as she said "Watch yerself now..."
Letting me go, the Orc turned around, walking in the opposite direction.
Wondering what exactly had just happened, I too turned and walked away, pushing the encounter to the back of my mind.
Currently, I had a more important thing to ponder.
What kind of jewelry would each of my wives like the most?
They already had a ring each; not that they couldn\'t wear multiple.
They had collars...
Which I still needed to give to Leone...
So, necklaces were out of the question; though pendants to attach to said collars was available.
Hmm...
Pursing my lips, I sighed as I tried to find something for each girl; Anput liked her amethyst dangle, Leone wore her ring constantly, and Kat...
Well, she wore her ring, but tended to cover it in public...
Maybe something easy to hide then, like a bracelet or anklet for her?
Seeing the jewelry shop Draka had recommended, I entered, a short male Dwarf at the counter.
"Good morning lass! How can I help ya?"
Chuckling at his cheery attitude, I approached the counter and leaned on it, saying "I need three good gifts for my women."
Leaning on the counter as well, the pudgy dwarf gave me a sly grin as he said "Oho~ Tell me more about these lucky wives! Old Narde will help ye as best I can!"
Grinning at one another, I said "Well, lets go alphabetically then. First, my Jackalkin wife. She really likes amethysts and obsidian, but she already has a good earring she always wears, as well as our engagement ring."
"Jackalkin ye say... She from the Sultanate?"
Nodding, I watched as the dwarf slid from his chair, his brown eyes flitting around the dim store.
"Aha! Over here lass."
Scurrying as fast as his little legs could take him, he approached one of the many tables, pulling out a stool as he opened a glass case.
"Somethin\' like this \'ere will pair well with her skin tone!"
He showed me a gold ring, a giant amethyst situated in the center.
It was a trilliant cut stone, and the amethyst was a deep, vibrant purple.
Lifting it gently from the cushion, I raised a brow as I saw a rune carved into its surface, making the dwarf grin.
"That there is just a simple scratch resist enchant. Pretty standard nowadays."
Nodding, I stared down at the ring, trying to imagine it on Anput\'s finger.
"Hmm... Actually, what about something obsidian? I gave her a pretty big amethyst before..."
Nodding, the dwarf placed the ring back into the container before pursing his lips again, making me chuckle.
Opening his mouth, he was about to speak when we heard the door open, and I saw someone I did not expect to see walk in.

Again, sorry if these chapters a bit bleh~, but I\'ve been resetting my brain and preparing a few extra chapters for a \'just in case\' moment, though I will release one on Christmas Day my time~!
Anyways, yup, I wonder who walked in~?
