Chapter 219: Meeting Orb Again!
-----
After reaching a certain area within the Dungeon away from the other Adventurer Parties, Frank and his group were greeted by a large floating sphere, Orb!
She flew towards Frank and hit him directly, crushing him into the ground!
CLASH!
"I sensed all that commotion yesterday and I was very worried, Master! I am so glad you are okaaaaay!" cried Orb, although she had no eyes for tears to come from.
"Agh! Okay, Orb! Sorry! Ugh, please, stop crushing me into the ground! You are fairly heavy and strong, you know?" asked Frank, as Orb suddenly topped.
"Ah! Oops…" she said, floating a bit away from Frank.
"Hah…" sighed Frank.
"I see that Orb is very happy to see you again, hehe," laughed Annabelle.
"I-I wouldn't really want to be in place of Frank at this moment…" said Asterion.
"Brother don't say that!" laughed Hilvera.
"Ungh… I am happy to see you again too," said Frank, hugging Orb back, as she seemed flustered by the sounds she produced.
"Uwawawah… Master's soft and warm hugs… I missed them…" said Orb.
"Thanks for helping everyone all this time while I was sleeping…" said Frank, giving a little kiss to Orb, as she exploded once more in embarrassment.
"A-Another kiss?! Uwaaaaah! Master, you pervert…! W-We cannot! You are a human and I am… a Dungeon Core!" said Orb, imagining weird things that she read from the books that Gwendolyn and everyone else brought her while Frank slept these last six months.
"Eh? What are you even talking about…?" asked Frank while feeling a bit of cringe…
"Haha, she learned some stuff about things like those… in the books we gifted them," said Cathyl.
"Y-Yeah… she was bored and wanted to learn how to read!" said Gwendolyn.
"W-What?! What kind of books did you give to Orb-chan? Hentai Doujins?! You contaminated her mind!" said Frank.
"I-It's nothing like that, brother! And who is to talk here? I remember that you always kept your hentai doujins hidden beneath your bed! I remember there were… like a few dozen! Hmm, maybe I should talk those things with Gwendolyn so she can know you better, huh?" asked Kamei while rubbing her chin and grinning eerily.
"Eeh?! Kamei, how did you know that?! I thought I kept them well hidden! Ugh…" sighed Frank, feeling defeated.
"What is hentai doujin?" asked Gwendolyn while curious.
"Yeah, what's that?" asked Clishya.
"Did Frank-kun collected romance books?" asked Cathyl.
"Aniki, were you into literature? Maybe I should also read those "hentai doujins"!" said Asterion.
"No… I don't know what she's talking about…" said Frank.
"Hehe… You see… hentai doujin were books with lewd drawings of girls doing sexual things… Onii-sama liked a lot those of mature women…" said Kamei.
"Oh? Is… that true, Frank? (Perhaps is that how he liked me so much? I suppose he always had such a kink for mature women such as myself…)" asked Gwendolyn as she realized one of Frank's tastes were mature women despite him being fairly young when he began to collect them…
"…No, don't… believe her… Gwendolyn…" said Frank.
"Hmm… Okay then, I won't… I believe you more because you are my fiancée now, I have to trust you, right? And even if it is true, I do not really see the problem with it, you are a young man, so it was fine that you needed to let some steam out," said Gwendolyn, getting into Frank's side!
"Ah? Gwendolyn, you are the best!" said Frank, hugging Gwendolyn and rubbing his face on her chest as she petted his head.
"Eh? I didn't expect that outcome…" said Kamei.
"I guess Gwendolyn didn't really mind it," said Cathyl.
"Hmm… Now I am really interested in those books!" said Asterion, as a bit of steam, began to come out of his large bull nostrils.
"You are not reading any lewd books, young man!" said Cathyl.
"Y-Yeah!" said Hilvera, as if she were a second mother to Asterion.
"Okaaay... Don't get all mad with me…" sighed Asterion.
"What is everyone even talking about?" wondered Orb.
"Kamei-chan, don't try to tease your brother like that again, alright?" asked Gwendolyn while patting Kamei's head.
"Yeah, tell her!" said Frank while grinning and hugging Gwendolyn.
"Aahaha… I guess I went a bit loosen there…" said Kamei.
"Well, it's whatever, let us forget about that now… I don't want to be reminded of it every day…" said Frank.
As Clishya watched all these quirky interactions, she could not help but laugh a bit, feeling a bit more relaxed…
"Hehe… I see that everyone is lively again…" she said.
"Ahem… Anyways, let's go to the underground, there have been a lot of changes down there that you haven't seen yet, Master!" said Orb, guiding everyone towards the depths of the Dungeon through a large stair she generated in the floor in an instant.
The group walked downstairs, noticing many new constructions as if they had suddenly entered inside an old and refined castle or something…
Although the bricks and everything were made of the same dungeon bricks, there were also furniture and more things, decorating everything around… although there were no windows because everything was underground, of course.
The floor even had red carpets and more, and there were many candles illuminating everything…
"Amazing… Orb. This is just as I asked you… Even better, in fact…" said Frank.
"That is right, Master! See? I did not slack around these months! This is a castle for all of us! Just as you wanted, and underground dungeon castle!" said Orb as she hovered around.
"So amazing… And big too!" said Clishya.
"Indeed… This is really… like a maze of its own…" said Annabelle.
"So this is what you were working on so diligently and secretly all this time!" said Cathyl.
"That's right, Cathyl-chan!" said Orb, waiting for pettings from Frank.
"Thanks a lot, Orb, well done. Good girl," said Frank, petting lovingly at Orb's surface, hugging her, and even giving her another kiss.
"Fweeeeeh! Another kiss?!" cried Orb while acting all embarrassed.
"Of course, it means that I care about you, also it could be a reward too? Though I do not know what else could make you happy. But I see that your kind like to be given affection," said Frank.
"N-Noo! T-That's.. not right!" said orb while pretending to be cold and emotionless, but it was useless against Frank's gentleness.
The party walked and explored the underground "castle" a bit more, as Gwendolyn felt a bit sad.
"Frank, what about Yurei-chan? Is she getting replaced?" she asked with puppy eyes.
"Eh? Not at all… Why would she? We will still go to the surface, but this is like a second base for us and a place where we can set several gates to go to other places," said Frank.
"Oh, is that so?" asked Gwendolyn while waving her tail around.
"Of course, Gwendolyn, why would I replace Yurei? I know it is also your home, and our love nest," said Frank, kissing Gwendolyn.
"Oh my, don't say such things in here…" said Gwendolyn.
"Eeh?! What is going on here?! Master and Gwendolyn… together?!" asked Orb.
"Oh… I guess we didn't tell you…" said Gwendolyn.
"Yeah… sorry about that," said Frank.
Both of them then began to explain things to Orb, as she realized that her Master had found a mate at last.
"Oh, Master! That is so romantic! That also means you can have your own children and bring them here!" said Orb.
"C-Children?!" asked Annabelle.
"Oh, Annabelle, you are getting a sibling, or a few…" said Asterion.
"Nice!" said Hilvera.
"Eh?! I am not ready yet!" said Annabelle.
"W-Well, we were already thinking about having one, fufu, perhaps I might already get pregnant soon…" said Gwendolyn.
"I can't wait," said Frank with a happy smile.
"Does that means that I will become an auntie?" wondered Kamei.
"C-Children… so soon?!" asked Clishya.
"It is just a thought for now… relax," said Frank.
"I-I see… I am happy for you, Frank-kun…" said Clishya while trying to contain her feelings of discomfort surging in and out of her mind… After knowing that Frank was getting with Gwendolyn and all, she already did not know what to do, and even after being comforted a bit, such feelings came back with the reality that Frank could even become a father one day shortly…
Clishya began to think if it could be okay for Frank to be with another girl alongside Gwendolyn… In Terra it was not rare for beast-kin to have multiple partners, although it was not widely practiced because the man would always have to bring a lot of food for many wives and children… well, there were also women with many males, but the problem was kind of similar.
Beast-kin were the only demi-humans that practiced such behaviors and saw them as normal, other races did not fancy them as much, or were aloof about them such as Humans. Demons, in specific, would often find a partner to spend their entire long lives with, the same could be said for elves and dwarves, although elves that were of royalty often had multiple wives/husbands to make many offspring.
Clishya could feel on Frank the aura of a King, so she hoped for him to consider one day having at least a second partner… which could give her the chance to get with him…
But it was all just hope and dreams… however, through such beliefs, she was not giving up on Frank, and she noticed that Gwendolyn did not act jealous of other girls, and seemed to understand her feelings for Frank…
As such thoughts rushed through Clishya's mind, Frank decided to upgrade Orb.
"Upgrade? At last! I accumulated a lot of Divine Power these last months, Master!" said Orb.
