Ryuji sat on the edge of his bed while letting out a yawn; although he did little today, his body felt an aching sensation. The exhaustion of the past few months began to build up and finally caught up with him.

He looked to his sides, each girl clinging to him in some form, with Ciel to his left, Yumiko to his right, while Erika and Liana clung to his back, and Sariel sat on his lap.

''I just want to cuddle with you all tonight, will you be happy with just that?'' He wondered while letting out a sigh.

"Ryuji~ you''re so unfair. Why did you choose all of us!" Yumiko frowned and leaned against him while grasping his arm tight. Her two tails slapped the bed while she watched Ryuji with sharp eyes.

"Haha, Ryu, I knew you couldn''t pick one of us alone—such a cute boyfriend." Erika seemed fine with sharing him with the others, her hands stroking his hair while kissing the back of his neck.

"Master, Sariel wants to sleep on master''s chest, ehehe." Sariel hugged his chest and rubbed her face against him with a lovely smile on her face.

"Husband, let me wash your back in the bath. You look tired today. I am here to serve you well." Ciela was the person least bothered after being ravished last night. Instead, she slid her finger along his palm while enjoying the warmth of his body.

"Darling, if Alan finds out, then we might have to elope!"

The words from Liana made Ryuji''s body tremble for a moment before he just gave up and leaned back into her and Erika''s chests. Upon seeing him relax, Yumiko changed her frown into a smile as she kissed his cheek and whispered.

"Don''t worry, we can see how exhausted you are, there if you just want to cuddle then I am happy with that."

"Thanks Yumiko, everyone... If I didn''t have you all, I might have fallen apart by now."

Everyone cuddled and spoke about the training while letting Ryuji lie on the bed, the girls not arguing or competing over who would sleep where. Instead, they just made sure he could sleep most comfortably.

Ryuji soon fell into a deep sleep, causing all the women to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Darling seems to be really tired... Is he going to be okay?"

"I think Ryu was trying so hard to stop us from worrying, maybe all this time..."

"You''re right, Erika—Ryuji really did push himself from the moment I met him in the royal castle. No matter if he was wounded or overwhelmed, he would never let it show or ask for help."

"Darling is so stupid, we would gladly accept his burdens..."

"Liana, this is what he is doing now. Our dear husband chose all of us because he needed all of us to feel at ease. Look at his smile, and how comfortable he looked while pressing his face against Yumiko''s and my tits."

"Master just loves women~ ehehe."

While they gently stroked his face and hair, Ryuji didn''t awaken for twelve hours—slowly, over time, the girls joined him in his long rest until all of them became entwined on the bed.

Thanks to their growing cooperation and teamwork, the girls began to train with Ryuji daily in his demon form.

Ryuji nodded, then decided they would go to the usual restaurant in the city since it would give them large portions for a few extra coppers.

They walked through the city, and a large crowd gathered around the arena while the streets were quiet.

"Hm? What''s going on, the street''s empty?" Sariel looked around, confused because for the past few days, the entire city was full of people during the times, and matches weren''t happening.

"Why do I sense a group of powerful people? Is something happening?" Ryuji wondered, then looked towards the place where these people were and realised.

They were toward the arena.

The group was around fifty people, but only twenty gave Ryuji a sense of danger, while the other part of the group, with thirty knights in normal armour and a fat male who seemed to be a noble of some kind, led them.

"What do you mean, Ryuji?" Yumiko, Liana, and Erika asked, each of their faces filled with confusion.

"Hm? Oh, sorry, I was talking to myself. We should avoid the arena area and go eat. I don''t want to deal with troublesome people. Especially those who want to steal my lovely women." He replied with a smile, then turned and walked towards the restaurant.

"R-right, we should avoid any trouble."

"Yeah, let''s leave the arena, Ryuji~ which is your lovely woman?"

"All of you, idiot."

Meanwhile, as the group turned around and headed towards the restaurant as they had planned, none of them noticed one of the holy knights turn around and notice Liana''s figure before he whispered to the noble beside him.

"Young Lord, it seems that the princess is out with a group of her friends in the city. What should we do?"

"Do you think they saw us, Knight-Captain?" The young noble asked, his face filled with confusion as he looked around the city.

"I don''t think they did, Young Lord, but it would be best if we dealt with the Princess first. If she doesn''t accept, then we can just put pressure on the king and use the churches power to make her accept or watch her father die."

"Alright, but let''s make sure they don''t see us. We need to approach her in the perfect way, after all."

"Yes, Young Lord, we will act when she is alone, and that man she is with is not around."

"Young lord, please calm down, it''s not good to lose your composure like this."

"Never! If that was your wife with a handsome male, would you accept it!" The fat noble began to shuffle towards the place the knight pointed out.

The group pursued the young lord, and the knight-captain, who was enraged that the man Liana was with was a man and could not see his face.

However, making the noble react like this, the knight''s lips curled into a smile as if he planned for this to happen.
