"But let's not delve too much on one subject, do speak of your ideas, I know well that you always have new projects in stock for the residence, in that regard, you make for a terrific matriarch, you know?" by this point, the two of them were as close to one another as was physically possible, Edrick could feel how her body trembled every time his hands wandered close to an area of importance, Fanqia not knowing whether the situation would turn steamy or stay so cosy.

In any case, she thought for a second, before beaming a smile as something came to mind.

"Cattle!"

Anoteros blinked.

"Cattle?"

"Yes, you mentioned how much you liked farms and the countryside, right? Well, actually… I always wanted to have my own cattle, it was sort of my big dream back when I still lived in the town, I always wanted to go to the nearby fields to watch the cows and sheep graze all day long… Of course, this can't be done in the sect, but there is always the future- I know that you won't stay shackled to place forever, Lord Anoteros, this sect in itself is not worthy of your presence!" snuggling up against him, Fanqia was all excited whilst talking about various farm animals, some of them didn't even count as livestock, but it made sense for a countryside girl's biggest dream to not be anything extravagant…

Although, considering the way she had been living in the past, owning a farm might actually count as a lavish dream, now, however, it no longer was such, it might even be considered beneath her to have that sort of things in mind, after all, what sort of young lady who was married to a man from a great cultivation clan would be dreaming of not only rearing mundane animals, but to work on it personally?

Admittedly, the number was probably close to zero, but Edrick wasn't too concerned about the ways things were viewed in this world or kingdom, otherwise, he wouldn't have a foppoof as his second wife, in fact, if he was concerned with acting like a typical man of his rank, he wouldn't have any wives at all right now, only servants or maybe concubines that aren't shown in public at best.

As much of a bloodthirsty murderer, amongst other things that he was, he found old-fashioned farms to be quite charming things, after all, he had been raised in the countryside as a child and had worked on a farm in his youth, so he was not opposed to the idea in the least.

"What do you think we should be getting first on this future farm?" he didn't outright say it, but made it pretty obvious that he agreed to the proposition.

"Cows, the lady who sells carrots in the market said that I had an affinity for cows!"

"...The lady who sells carrots, huh? The one next to the man who sells roasted chickens?"

"Yes"

'I'll have to have a discussion with that one'

"But Lord Anoteros… I am wondering, how do those velvet pixie abilities even work in the first place? Do I just need to will it hard enough?"

"From what I read, the way they do things differ on what type of craftsmanship they are trying to do, but when it comes to alchemy, they apparently just need raw materials, and they can just assemble them to form something of great effect, it is indeed mostly a matter of will in that category- For example, you know those healing grasses that grow pretty much everywhere?"

Fanqia nodded.

"Usually, making them into a potion or pill would require several tools and multiple steps, a velvet pixie, however, simply grabs some of the grass, and squeezes it all into a pill ready to be consumed on the spot, they can even get rid of supplementary materials that way, the more skilled can even eliminate any drawbacks to certain recipes, which is probably how the royal family's newest generations always manages to have such a strong head start compared to everyone else, they can gorge on pills to aid cultivation without any fear of harming themselves, quite ingenious really, I would monopolise those little fellows too if I could"

He gently touched her face.

"We have plenty of materials available, so don't worry about failing, that bloodline was with you since the moment you were conceived, you might not feel it now as it has stayed dormant, but once you get it started, you will certainly understand what you need to know, that bloodline is an integral part of you, you'll learn to master it…" and with this, he squeezed her delightfully chubby waist, making Fanqia squeal in surprise.

As he turned to face her, Fanqia felt the sea serpent below the surface of the water poking at her thigh.

"Lord Anoteros… Do you really enjoy that body of mine?"

"Now, don't ask idiotic questions, Fanqia… Are you asking me if I think that you are too fat? Be serious, you have the perfect amount of chubbiness, that delectable meat of yours is everywhere it needs to be in the right quantity!" he slapped her thigh below the water, leaning closer to his wife's face.

"Don't you worry, Fanqia… If I were dissatisfied with anything, do you think that I wouldn't have mentioned it? Stop doubting yourself and spread those legs for me"

"Y-Yes…" not expecting such a wave of compliments, Fanqia felt a bit shy for the first time in a while, but followed his command immediately nonetheless, spreading her legs as he picked her up and placed her on his lap, the great rod entering the love palace that it had since long claimed as its property.

The water of the pond rippled with Fanqia's bounces, Edrick holding onto her waist as she arched back instinctively, the great peaks bouncing with otherworldly fluidity and softness, Anoteros just admired the spectacle for a while, his free arm resting on the pond's bank, enjoying as the sound of chirping birds was overtaken by his first wife's enthusiastic moans.

This was not the first time they had done it whilst submerged in water, neither was it the first time they had done it outside actually, but the setting felt much less private than that time by the lake at the mountain residence, and this made Fanqia feel all excited, unable to contain herself as she thought of even more absurd scenarios.

She didn't mind at all when or where Edrick had sex with her, in fact, the idea of him just claiming her in public with plenty of people to witness how domineering Anoteros was whilst dominating and using her body as he saw fit- It caused her to climax even earlier than normal.

"Heh, don't we have a little pervert here?" pulling Fanqia against his chest, tightening his arm around her waist, he took the lead and began to rapidly thrust his hips upward, the free hand at his disposal seizing hold of his wife's hair and pulling it back whilst he pushed his lips against hers.

Frankly, this somewhat public environment was also getting him a bit riled up, he had never done this with any of his wives…
