## Chapter 661 – Promotion

“That son of a bitch is out of his mind, sending me a letter like this.”

I can’t fathom what kind of mentality makes him give something away and then ask for it back.

Sure, the Marquis gave it to me to save the Baron, but that bastard insulted me. The necklace is something I rightfully took as payment for that insult.

To curse me out like that and think I’d just give it back? Is he naive, or just plain stupid? Seems like his brain is just empty.

It even said he’d send someone to retrieve the necklace in a few days. Is that crazy bastard not coming himself and sending someone else? I guess I’ll go meet them around that time and tell them to fuck off.

“Katt, he wants the necklace back?”
“Yeah. That bastard’s got a death wish.”
“To dare ask for something Katt has claimed. Unforgivable!”
“I’ll never forgive anyone who tries to take what’s mine!!!”

She was about to explode with anger, so Claudia slipped her hand into my pants and started stroking me.

“Katt, calm down for now. Let’s be good, okay?”
“Ah… right. I need to calm down now.”
“You can get angry when you meet him next time.”

I can get angry then.

I leaned back leisurely on the sofa and enjoyed Claudia’s handjob, feeling like everything in the world was easy. As expected, Claudia knows my body best. I’ll just get angry when I meet him next time, as she said.

“Oh, right… Claudia.”

As I relaxed and focused on the sensation, I suddenly remembered something important.

“Hm?”
“Well, it’s…”

A few days ago, after slaughtering the Lizardmen, I made a promise to Hilde. She definitely asked me to introduce her to Claudia, didn’t she? I haven’t been able to do it because I’ve been busy dealing with Ari’s whining.

It was an important promise that Hilde emphasized, so I should start acting on it soon. Fortunately, it hasn’t been that long.

I hope she’s not angry.

“You remember Hildegard, right?”
“Yeah. I remember her. She seemed to like Katt a lot… but what about her?”
“She wants to meet you.”
“Suddenly?”

I briefly explained the situation when I made the promise to Claudia.

“Hmph… making such a cute promise. I wonder what kind of favor she’s going to ask for? I’m curious.”

Claudia whispered in my ear, smiling gleefully.

She’s probably thinking of asking Claudia about me. Hilde is yearning to be in my arms, after all. She’s probably thinking of scoring points through Claudia. We even saw each other and talked when we went to catch the demon last time.

Still, I made a promise, so I have to let them meet.

“So, when should we go meet her?”
“Since you promised, the sooner the better. Is tomorrow okay?”
“I’ll have to wake up early.”
“Will you be able to get up?”
“I’ll try.”

If we’re going to meet, we’ll have to go outside the city early in the morning. She’s avoiding coming into the city because of the Saintess. So, we have to go somewhere secluded.

“Are you going to meet that Succubus?”
“Lisha?”

Lisha came up from the basement. She must have heard me talking to Claudia. We’re not going today, but tomorrow.

Lisha came right in front of me and sat down, naturally slipping her hand into my pants like Claudia and stroking my cock.

A situation where two women are naturally taking care of me.

“If she’s so friendly to you, it would be fine to invite her to the house. There are so many things I want to ask. She must know a lot about Hell and demons.”
“Ah… but I don’t think she knows everything in detail.”
“Still, having a specimen is a very valuable thing. If it’s alright with you, would you invite her to the house next time? Using that crystal makes it simple, doesn’t it?”

Even if I invite her, all I have to do is use the crystal inside the house.

Of course, if I’m going to summon her inside the city, I have to go outside the city first, summon her, and then ask her. I can’t just summon her willy-nilly.

“Ah, but she’s not trying to come into the city right now because there’s a Saintess in the city.”
“If that’s the problem, don’t worry.”
“Hm?”
“If I’m here, she won’t even know if the Saintess comes looking for her. Didn’t I hide that Vugal perfectly? I’m very skilled at concealing identities.”
“Ah.”

That’s true.

If Lisha’s here, she can easily hide the fact that Hilde is a Succubus. She’s the woman who perfectly handled the Vugal situation.

As expected of our Witch.

“I’m quite interested in that Succubus. If you don’t mind, please convey my wishes to her.”
“Well… sure. I have to do whatever Lisha asks. I’ll do that.”
“Hehehe, thank you so much. So, you’re leaving tomorrow morning?”
“That’s the plan.”

I enjoyed the double handjob from my two wives and rested.

“You’re going to meet a dark-skinned Succubus?”

Winnia, who came down from the second floor, narrowed her eyes and looked at me.

“Ah, Winnia. Well, it’s…”

I immediately told Winnia the same thing I had explained to Claudia. After hearing my story, she said.

“I’m going with you too.”

The promise was to introduce her to Claudia, but there wouldn’t be a problem if she came along.

“Okay, let’s go together tomorrow morning. But where’s Karin?”
“She went to the guild.”
“Then I’ll have to tell her tonight.”

But it’s not like going out is a big deal.
Ari, who was doing housework, also came over and asked.

“Father? What kind of race is that Succubus?”
“A race that sucks men’s essence.”
“Am I… similar to that?”
“It’s quite different.”

Alraunes and Succubi are very different.

Alraunes use essence as a means to recover their magic power or enrich plants, but for Succubi, essence itself is the driving force of their lives.

But both are seductive female races. The part about trying to suck men dry is the same, too.

And when you think about it, they’re both murderous monsters.

But our Ari hasn’t killed anyone, and Hilde only takes essence in dreams and hasn’t killed anyone either. And she’s helped me many times… at least Ari and Hilde are good. That’s what I think.

* * *

I woke up early in the morning and started preparing to go out. I shook Claudia and Winnia, who were sleeping, to wake them up, and they soon struggled to raise their upper bodies.

“Ah… I can’t… Darkie, go wash me…”
“Katt…”
“Oh dear.”

I carried the two women on my shoulders and went into the bathroom on the first floor. Ari also woke up in the middle and followed me to help wash them. Well, they both came to their senses and washed themselves.

I went outside the city gate with Claudia, who was wearing her usual tight black leather pants and jacket, and Winnia, who was wearing a robe with a moderately exposed cleavage and a short hem.

I immediately went into a secluded forest and found a place with a space where we could rest and took out the crystal to call Hilde.

“Okay, Katt. Call her. I’m ready.”
“Okay.”

I immediately poured mana into the crystal, and it immediately started to react. ㅡGoooo. In that state, an ominous pink gate was created in the air, and Hilde in her Succubus form came out from inside.

For once, she’s not just wearing underwear, but normal clothes.

“Katt-nim!!”

As soon as she came out, she shouted my name as usual and tried to fly towards me. I was about to dodge lightly, but suddenly Hilde widened her eyes and shouted in shock.

“Oh, oh?! Ka, Katt-nim?!!! What is this!!!!”
“What is.”
“I can feel it all!!! You have a new woman, don’t you!!!!”

She noticed right away.

Well, she did that with Liz-nuna too.

“And it doesn’t seem like a human…! Who is it?! And what race is it!!!! Katt-nim, I think I’m going crazy, what is going on!!!!!”

Hilde knelt down and grabbed my clothes, asking almost desperately. She looked quite shocked. But what can I do?

“Tell me properly!! I can tell when Katt-nim has sex!!!”

She has that ability.

“Ah, well… there’s an Alraune.”
“Ah, Alraune!!!! Was that some kind of plant race… no, no!! Katt-nim!! You said you didn’t like Succubi!! But what about Alraunes…! I’m going to cry! No, really, I’m so upset… Hng! Hmph… Hnggg…!”
“Hey, hey! Why are you crying all of a sudden!”
“But…! I thought I was Katt-nim’s sixth woman…! Hng! You said you didn’t like demons, but you’re doing that with a native monster woman…!”

What am I supposed to do with Hilde, who suddenly burst into tears and rubbed her face against my stomach?

Claudia was smiling and looking at me, and Winnia was glaring at Hilde.

“Cl, Claudia? Hey. Hilde. Today is that promise we made. Stop crying and look up.”
“Hng… Ah, yes? Oh, right… we made a promise…”

Hilde, who wiped her eyes, looked at Claudia.
Claudia, who came closer first, greeted her with a smiling face.

“Yeah, nice to see you. It’s been a while since winter, hasn’t it?”
“Ah, that’s right… nice to see you too. You’re still beautiful, Claudia-nim.”
“Hehehe, saying that as soon as you see me. So, you said you had something to talk about?”
“Ah, yes.”

Hilde, who answered that way, composed herself and bowed her head in a polite manner. She does it to Claudia first, and then to Winnia next.

“Winnia-nim, it’s been a while since we acted together in the snowy mountains. How have you been?”
“…I’ve been good. More than that. What are you trying to talk about with Unnie?”
“That’s… I want to talk to Claudia-nim personally first. Can I tell you after that?”
“…Do as you please.”

Hilde, who finished talking to Winnia, looked at me again.

“Then Katt-nim… first of all, thank you for keeping your promise… Hng, really… I’m going to cry…”
“Yeah. Well.”
“Katt, she seems to be hurt. Then, Hildegard? Shall we talk for a bit?”
“Ah, yes…”

Claudia naturally led Hilde, who was about to cry, and walked over there. A half-elf and a Succubus… Anyway, naturally, only Winnia and I were left.

I immediately spread my cloak on a flat rock and sat down with Winnia.

“What is that, really…”
“I know, right.”

Seeing her about to cry like that reminded me of Ari about to cry again. Claudia and Hilde are not visible, probably because they went quite far. As I was waiting, Winnia said.

“Darkie.”
“What is it, Winnia?”
“You know that Succubus loves Darkie, right?”
“Of course, I know. She says she loves me every time I see her. She was with me when I caught the Sasquatch last time, too.”
“…That’s true. But Darkie has been rejecting her every time she’s come running to you, right?”
“That’s right?”

Winnia looked at my face.
I immediately added an explanation.

“I originally reject women who come to me. Claudia is the one who speaks up or takes responsibility. No, but as my wives increase, it’s become unavoidable…”
“…Haa.”

Winnia, who looked at me for a while, sighed and leaned against me.

“When you think about it, is it all because of me?”
“What is?”
“Darkie starting a harem. I feel like it’s because I forced Unnie at first.”

Bringing up such old things.

“No, it’s not because of Winnia.”
“Then?”
“It’s because Claudia wants it that way.”

More offspring.
More power.
Higher status, influence.

Claudia wants me to achieve everything I can as a man. That’s how much love she pours into me. She wants me to do everything, to become the strongest, to take everything, and to create a lot of offspring that she can’t give birth to.

Her love has become the foundation of my being.

“I see… but Darkie.”
“I’m listening.”

Winnia turned her body and hugged me, saying. Quite strongly, giving strength to her arms and rubbing her face against my chest.

“I don’t like it when Darkie has too many women.”
“Winnia…”
“So, I’ll only allow up to ten. Anyway, no matter what I say, Unnie’s thoughts won’t change, and Darkie believes in Unnie’s words. Even if the number of women increases, I won’t say anything up to ten. But if it goes over ten… I think I’ll get really angry.”
“Ten is too many.”
“Seeing Unnie, I think it’s more than possible. But if I ask for this much, wouldn’t you accept it?”

I don’t want to increase it that much either.
I immediately hugged Winnia’s waist.

“I’m… so happy just being able to hug Darkie like this that my heart feels like it’s melting… doesn’t Darkie feel the same?”
“Of course, I do.”
“Then that’s enough. It’s okay up to ten. Don’t hold back and do what you want. But no more than that. Got it?”
“Okay. I’ll do as Winnia says.”

In the first place, there are no more women to increase.
