Reincarnated in the Astral World

Chapter 61: New Year

The year is 1317 of the Eldorian calendar, which was created the same amount of years ago when the whole continent was united by a stable alliance. Similar to Arthur's past life, the new world also divides the years into twelve months, but each month has exactly thirty days.

Arthur wakes up on the morning of the thirtieth day of the twelfth month, exactly two months and four days after his fourteenth birthday and also the last day of the year.

As Liam, he never knew what it was like to celebrate the end of a good year and the beginning of a new one. At that time, he knew that all his days would be filled with violence and death, but now his life is wonderful, and each day is a new discovery alongside the women he loves so much.

Arthur tries to stretch out as soon as he opens his eyes, but it's difficult due to Nyx hugging his body like a sloth puppy. "Morning, honey," He strokes her red hair, which gets longer every day. Having Nyx by his side is always something very good, so he has nothing to complain about.

"Mm... mmmm..." She grumbles, as usual, not wanting to stop hugging him. "Let's stay like this a little longer, pleeasee~"

"You ask this every morning," He laughs at her spoiled and cute way. "But I can already smell the delicious breakfast prepared by Margaret, she and Mom must have a lot of things planned for today's menu, and I always wake up hungry because of you."

"Hehe~" Nyx shows a naughty smile as she thinks about the reason Arthur always wakes up hungry, and it's clear because they have a lot of fun during the night.

Arthur holds her chin and makes her look into his eyes, "You have such an adorable side but don't like me to see it," He rubs his thumb on her soft lips.

"..." Nyx looks away, biting her lips timidly; she strives hard to appear as a charming and confident woman like Aria because she knows how much Arthur admires his mother. But at the same time, he seems to really like Margaret's honest and naughty way, leaving her confused about which he prefers.

"So cute," Arthur kisses Nyx again before jumping out of bed. Waking up like this is always very good and could only get better with Margaret also sleeping with him. But he is not in a hurry, instead looking forward to enjoying the day.

He goes downstairs with Nyx, who can now keep her body materialized without any problem inside the house. They find Eve reading a book in the living room while Aria and Margaret are making a great breakfast, the biggest so far, with several types of sweet and savory breads, assorted cookies, juices from fresh fruits grown with magic by Aria, and also a delicious coffee.

Arthur hugs his mother tightly as he has been doing every morning, but when it's time to hug Margaret, she steals several kisses from his lips.

He has really been striving to behave since Magaret moved in with them. He didn't eat her flower again since they came very close to doing it all the way last time, but he has kissed and touched her many times every day while Nyx is the only one to receive his milk yet.

Arthur does not want to treat his lover differently, but he wants to have control over his actions and not give in to his emotions. Also, he can see how his demonstrations of love for his wives make his mother look uneasy, so he wants her to slowly adapt to it so that things look more natural.

Meanwhile, Aria observes the changes in Arthur and Magaret's bodies. In two weeks, he had already reached the peak of the sixth grade of the Mystic Nocive Rank, while a whole month of cultivation did not make him reach half of the previous rank.

Margaret also shows a significant increase in her power growth after Arthur started kissing and caressing her. She seemed to be developing much better than a commoner but it seemed like she would take at least two months to reach the second grade of the first mage Rank, the Apprentice Rank, but she actually did it in just two weeks.

Aria feels ashamed for peeking on Arthur having intimate moments with his fiancées but she still does it to analyze how his Astral Energy gets stronger and makes Magaret stronger too. And the more she thinks about it, the more she is sure of what his heart-shaped Nexus represents.

And that makes many strange thoughts rise in her mind like the forms of tests and experiments that she could use to understand more about Arthur's power. But whenever Aria thinks about asking her son to do such things, she finds herself in a dilemma where both options seem wrong and immoral.

But today is a day that Aria tries not to think about it. Not only in Eldoria but all over the world, the passage from one year to another is a special day.

In the Lumindell Kingdom all the nobles gather in luxurious grand parties while the simple people celebrate in the streets of the cities. The people of Fletcher Village are very simple, so every year, Arthur's family has a big party open to everyone.

But such parties were Draven's wish, and now that Aria does not see him as part of the family anymore, she can do what she wants, and it is to spend such a day only with her beloved family, which now includes two lovely daughters-in-law.

With no training and cultivation to do today, they spend all their time relaxing. After a long and fun breakfast, they take a walk on the riverbank near the house, and Aria is very happy to see Arthur playing with Eve while they help Margaret get fresh fruits and some fish.

They have a picnic and then return home to prepare the evening banquet. Aria and Margaret make a great duo in the kitchen and even Eve and Nyx try to help prepare various dishes for dinner, creating scenes that Arthur really enjoys watching.

Without the big Fletcher party, the usual silence falls over the village at night, but at Arthur's house, the atmosphere is very festive and pleasant. Aria uses her magic to make musical instruments play beautiful melodies, and Arthur dances with each of his princesses and also his Queen, of course.

Aria uses her magic to easily prepare the dinner table in the backyard of the house, and they dine under the starlight sky. After dinner, she makes a platform of pure, bright gray energy and raises a large sofa several meters above the house.

Then, with a gesture of her finger, she activates dozens of fireworks that she created with magical resources when midnight strikes and the new year begins, covering the sky above the village with lights of all colors that create images that are alive: a large dragon flying through the skies, a deer delicately hopping, a huge majestic owl, and several other animals in sequence.

Everyone in the region is fascinated by that magical spectacle, but Aria only cares about the happiness of her family, which is reflected in the looks of Arthur, Eve, Margaret, and Nyx as they watch the fireworks.

Even seeing how happy Arthur is, Aria can't help but question him. "This isn't a big party like the ones before, but it doesn't seem bad either, right, baby?"

"It's perfect," Arthur comments and wraps his hand around his mother's waist. She is sitting next to him on the couch while Eve is on the other side, leaving Nyx and Margaret pouting in the corners.

Aria always opens the brightest smiles when Arthur shows his affection with caresses. "So Mommy will do this every year."

"Yeah," Arthur nods and places a tender kiss on her cheek while stroking Eve's hair and also casts loving glances at Nyx and Margaret. "Spending such precious moments with only those I love is the best."

Aria gets so pleased due to how Arthur thinks the same way as her about everything. She rests her head on his shoulder and just enjoys the moment until the fireworks are almost ending an hour later. She feels her body complain whenever she has to move away from Arthur, but she still does it to let him have time with his lovers.

"Good night, baby," She places a tender kiss on his cheek and takes the also reluctant Eve inside the house, leaving Arthur, Nyx, and Margaret enjoying the last minutes of the show.

Arthur thanks his mother and hugs his two fiancées. They both kiss his cheeks at the same time, making him smile; but then they exchange quick glances in silence, leaving him curious.

Nyx holds his face and makes him look at her before kissing his mouth while using mental communication to speak to him. 'I'll see you in bed, darling.'

Then she returns to his Nexus while Margaret hugs him tighter, making Arthur laugh. "Is this some kind of agreement between you two?"

"Don't worry about it, darling~ we have a good deal," Margaret smiles as her delicate hands run to Arthur's waist, sliding inside his shirt; just like Nyx, she loves to feel his muscles, especially his six packs.

"I see," Arthur holds Margaret's chin and kisses her lips. "I'm very happy that you get along so well... it makes me want to reward you." He speaks in a loving tone while also caressing Margaret's body.

While the last magical fireworks adorn the sky, Arthur makes Margaret feel very good with kisses and caresses, but they don't go further outdoors and just enjoy the moment.

An hour later, Arthur takes Margaret to her bedroom like a princess and puts her in bed; she asks for more kisses, and he fulfills her wish before going to his own bedroom.

After closing the door, he looks at his bed with a determined expression. "Nyx," He calls her, and she materializes her body, sitting on her knees in a behaved manner; her shy eyes, slightly blushed cheeks, and expectant expression add even more to her natural charm.

She is only wearing her black bikini because she uses it whenever she is alone with Arthur while leaving the dress only for when she is near other people.

"You are so beautiful," Arthur never tires of praising Nyx's beauty, just as she never tires of receiving his compliments.

He slowly walks towards the bed while taking off his shirt and shoes, but before removing his shorts, the tent on it is already huge. He points to it while continuing to look at Nyx. "Do you know why I am like this?" He asks in a teasing tone.

"..." Nyx just bites her lips, her face getting even redder.

Arthur smiles as he reaches the bed and extends his hand to touch Nyx's face, running his fingers on her cheek and his thumb caressing her lips. "It was very nice of you to let me have that moment alone with Margaret."

"I just-" Nyx tries to say something, but Arthur sticks his thumb inside her mouth while his gaze becomes more loving. "There's nothing that turns me on more than such a good wife… I'll reward Margaret later for her hard work, but now I want to reward you, so ask me anything."

'I want to be your first!' Nyx exclaims in his mind.

Arthur smiles before passionately kissing Nyx's mouth; he also takes his hands to her fluffy mounds and starts squeezing them, making her let out cute moans. "Ah… I didn't mean now… mm~ but I just wanted to have it before…"

"It's okay, honey," Arthur comments while pressing Nyx lying on the bed and getting on top of her, stroking and kissing her body. "Mom will have to forgive me, but I can't wait any longer… I want to make you feel good and feel good with you, my love."

Nyx's eyes shine like never before as does her beautiful smile. "Then let's do this… I've been waiting for a long time for this moment, so I'm so happy that it's finally going to happen~"
