    POOF!


    Right behind from me, suddenly, a gorgeous blonde Vampiress materialized out of thin air. It was Alice herself, who had used one of her various Vampiric Abilities to… turn into mist?!


    "I''m d you''re back, my Kireina." She smiled calmly, as usual, as she embraced me in a hug from behind, her thin arms wrapped around my neck, as she caressed my face. "I''ve missed this scent, and your sweet blood… My dearest."


    "I missed you as well, Alice." I giggled. "Though, did you had to scare me like that? I''ll let you drink my bloodter, so be patient."


    "Of course. Alucard has grown well; I''m teaching him how to speak by now." She said. "I never doubted you would be back. "Unlike other girls…" She nced at Lilith running to my side.


    "Kireina-samaaaaaa!"


    BAAAM!


    I hit the ground, beingpletely demolished by her small, yet really heavy body. She wasn''t a Dragon-kin for nothing, and one packed with small yet dense muscles, and huge scales.


    "Lilith! I''m happy to see you as well!"


    "BUWAAAAAH! I WAS SO WORRIED!"


    "T-There, there…"


    I slowly calmed her down, hugging her and giving her a kiss in her little nose, as she rested her head on my shoulders while hugging me, without wanting to let go of me.


    "I''m back, and everything''s alright. There''s still a lot of problems but we''ll resolve them together, no worries." I smiled gently.


    "I''ll be there to help as well…" Lilith smiled, blushing a bit. "Fafnir''s been sleeping a lottely, is it because he''s a dragon? I was worried at first, but the other dragons and the wyverns told me it was fine to sleep for so long… He slept through all the time you were gone!"


    "I-I know…" Iughed. "Well, some children sleep a lot."


    "Unlike the littlezy Fafnir, my adorable Electra and I spent our time together designing higher tiered divine magic technology. And we''ve created greater and better results with the aid of Andromeda-chan." Suddenly, Charlotte appeared while readjusting her sses. "A-Ah, I''m also d to see you, Kireina. I was actually… well, I was holding back, but I was quite sad."


    "You''re really strong hearted, Charlotte! I''m so happy to see you, I missed our icy nature too." I hugged her tightly.


    "Why are youparing your genius girl with my little goober?" Sighed Lilith. "They''re different kids!"


    "I wasn''tparing, I was merely analyzing…" Charlotte sighed. "Okay, sorry… I just didn''t knew how to start a conversation."


    "Damn, you''re painfully honest sometimes, Charlotte…" I sighed, giving her a head pat.


    Still, she worked hard for us, and was really cute anyways. She gave off the icy secretary vibes that really got me going. A personality like that is necessary amidst all the tomboyish and reckless wives I have…


    "Oh, about Andromeda, she''s currently in the Realm Core." Charlotte said. "She said that whenever you find time, that you could go look for her."


    "Alright, noted." I nodded. "Maybe I should-"


    "Where do you think you''re going?! You owe me a big apology!" Suddenly, a muscr and huge red oni girl appeared in front of me.


    "O-Oga! How are you?" I wondered, hugging her big, strong biceps. "Aahh, I missed these tough muscles of yours!"


    "E-Eh?! O-Oi! Don''t just hug- Ahh!" Oga suddenly got all embarrassed and ended hugging me as well. "I missed you, you know?!"


    "I''m sorryyyy! I''ll make up for it, Oga." I smiled. "How are you?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>


    "I-I''m alright, though I''ve barely fought aside frombining my strength with the girls…" Oga sighed. "I want more action!"


    "I''ll make sure to give you a lot of action, in bed too."


    "O-Oh? G-Good then."


    She was still the sage good ol'' lovely tomboyish oni girl I know and love.


    "It is a relief to see your return, Kireina. Amidst all the things I could see, your return was one filled with the fog of destiny." Nanako walked in, with a calm smile. "Your presence fills us all with hope, however."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    "Altani! I''m d you''re alright, and I heard you helped out Loki with Mady, right?" I asked.


    "Well yes, that useless woman couldn''t had gotten so far without us." Madyughed.


    "Don''t be so rough on her, Mady." Nanako sighed. "Loki is… simply quite wed, but she is indeed, a good mother. I''m happy for your return, Kireina, and also, I''m rather happy Hel was retrieved safely." I quickly gave her a hug and a kiss, despite her stiffness, she still epted them happily.


    "Kireina, I''m relieved you''re back." Altani appeared, with a serious look in her face, yet her eyes seemed filled with a lot of emotions she masked behind a dead serious expression. "Emerald has been growing just fine, though, he still has yet to learn how to speak…"


    "Hehehe, that''s the least of my worries, he''s sleeping soundly by now!" I giggled, giving her a hug and a kiss. "I missed you Altani! Though, I remember meeting someone simr to you in my travels… She had your almost exact personality! And was the chief of a tribe. I helped them out fight a guy named Genie… And we beat the crap out of him, I ate him and all…"


    "I-I see… That''s quite a lot of anecdotes. I would dly hear them out while having some tea." Altani smiled gently. "A fellow tribe chief must be someone admirable to hear about!" She got quite excited, alright.


    "Oh my! Kireina is really back! She''s in the flesh here! Acelina! Acelina!" Ismena, the former princess of the Athetosea Kingdom, who had be a beautiful light fairy after her evolutions. At her side, her older sister Acelina, walked in, who had be a demoness, her attitude having be more explosive than before.


    "Ohohohoho! I told you she would be fine, my dearest sister, you were always such a worrywart! It is Kireina we are talking about! Heh, I always thought she would be back!" Acelinaughed loud and pridefully.


    "Eh? Yeah sure, but you were the one that cried the most when she died!" Ismena said.


    "E-Eh? W-What lies are you telling, my dearest sister…" Acelina pretended to not have done such things.


    "I''m sorry if I worried you two, I''m back!" I hugged and kissed them quickly.


    "Without your leadership, things would be much harder around. I''m so relieved you''re back… I can''t work as a leader myself yet… Even as a former princess, Ick your charisma…" Sighed Ismena.


    "Come on, you''re pretty good already." I sighed, caressing her face. "Just keep striving forwards."


    "She is more than capable! That is what I always tells her, and she just doesn''t believe me. Kireina-sama, if you could, I would love if you could teach her to have some pride on herself! I think it is the only thing she''s missing to be a proper ruler and leader… And because our Country is so vast, her knowledge is necessary." Acelina smiled.


    "Indeed, I''ll do my best!" I nodded.


    "W-Wait, Acelina! Geez, why are you just jumping into conclusions?!" Ismena pouted angrily yet cutely.


    "I only have good intentions for you, Ismena!" Acelinaughed.


    FLAAAASH!


    Suddenly, a shadow appeared from the skies, as a cute harpy girl fell right over my head!


    POOF!
