Extra's Rebirth: I Will Create A Good Ending For The Heroines - Chapter 512 512: Night Time

“So let me get this straight… That werewolf that attacked the soldiers of the town led you to a world underneath and you took over?” Medusa asked with a few blinks, even she couldn’t believe it however Azel nodded and confirmed it.

“Yes, that’s pretty much it then I took over.” Azel said. “So those times I disappeared at night… I was usually going there to check on them but Selene deserves more credit for co-ordinating them when I’m not around.”

Selene’s tail shook behind her and everyone could see that she was happy even though she was trying to hide it.

Her ears twitched. She tried to keep her expression neutral but the joy leaked through anyway. Her hands gripped her fork tighter.

“My Lord…” She muttered under her breath and then stuffed her face full of meat. “Lady Edna, this is really sweet. Thanks for the food.”

The flavors exploded on her tongue. It was better than anything Irene made in Lycas, and Irene was an exceptional cook.

Edna patted her on the head and Selene eased into her touch and as for Azel, he observed it with a strange expression.

Was it weird that he was feeling jealous about her being patted by Edna?

His wife was petting his other wife… The dynamic was bizarre but somehow it worked.

“You shouldn’t thank only me… Mira and Stella also put in a lot of work, I honestly didn’t expect a top tier noble like you to know how to cook.” She said while looking at Stella and Stella’s cheeks reddened.

“I just picked it up from the maids… it’s no big deal.” She muttered.

The way she said it suggested otherwise, like she’d spent hours in kitchens when no one was looking, perfecting techniques until her hands knew them by heart.

From what Selene could see, this was a very happy family and there were even more children than she accounted for. A whole four of them, her Lord was really active.

Her eyes slowly went to his face and he looked really cool while eating. She wanted those lips against hers.

The way he chewed… The way he held his fork… The way his jaw moved… Everything about him was attractive. How was that even possible?

“Easy girl… we can all see you.” Edna said and she looked around, everyone was giving her a varying degree of looks and her ears fell.

It was her fault for ogling him at the table after all, She should have more self-control than this.

“That aside… are we going to attend the Celestial festival this year?”

“Celestial festival?” Azel asked.

It was an in-game event which was literally like a festival for lovers. In the game, you could take any Heroine there for a date and that increased their affection for you, though it didn’t take place in Starbloom but rather the Aegis Empire.

He hadn’t thought about that event in months. The game version had carnival games, food stalls, fireworks. It was really a standard dating simulator festival.

“Of course… it’s that time of the year and despite the delays, they’re ready to start it.” Stella said as she tapped her hand on the table while slowly eating. “Don’t be surprised if you’re invited to appease the people or something like that.”

The Empire would definitely want him there. The Hero who saved the world making an appearance at their festival? Political gold. They’d parade him around like a trophy.

“I see…”

“What is this Celestial festival?” Selene asked.

Everybody seemed to know what it was about except for her and Edna smiled.

“It’s a lover’s festival that’s held in the capital of the Aegis Empire. I haven’t gone before so I wouldn’t know how it is but a lot of friends went and they had a good time.” Edna replied. “Once they finalize a date, how about we all go?”

All the girls nodded at the idea and even Selene nodded as well.

“If my lord allows… then I will accompany you.” She said then gave him a pleading look.

Her eyes went wide and hopeful like a puppy begging for treats. Her tail started wagging again.

“Huh?” Azel asked. “You want to come too?”

“Yes.” She gave several hard nods and Azel chuckled.

Her enthusiasm was infectious and he simply couldn’t say no to that face.

“Well I don’t see why not? I’m sure Ravik can co-ordinate them while we’re away” Azel said and it took everything in her might not to practically jump at him and cuddle him.

Her tail wagged so fast it was a blur. Her hands gripped the table edge to keep herself seated and the wood creaked slightly under the pressure.

“Alright, less talking and more eating… it’s not a nice habit. After we’re done, we can prepare for be-“

“No!” Raphael let out, alarming everyone. “We want to play Knights and Princesses!”

His little voice was firm. Determined. He’d clearly been waiting for the right moment to make his demand.

“Knights and Princesses…?”

Anastasia was the one that looked guilty now.

“It was a game that I thought of.” She admitted. “Raphael and Lysandra will be knights and will try to rescue the Princess, me from the Villain, Feng.”

She looked at Azel’s face and he was giving her a warm smile.

“Cute.”

The Elf King felt her face completely turn red as in an attempt to hide her face, she almost put her face in her plate.

Steam practically rose from her cheeks. She’d never been called cute so directly before. Former Elf King, current Queen, had been reduced to a blushing mess by one word.

“Alright, let’s play Knights and Princesses…” Azel said. “And I’ll be the Head Knight this time too, I’d have you know I’m very well versed in rescuing Queens and Princesses.”

Selene’s ears perked up at that. How many had he rescued exactly?

…

Hours later, the moon hung high in the sky and it was bed-time.

The game had run long… The children had insisted on multiple rounds, each one was more fun than the last.

Feng had played his villain role with surprising commitment.

Azel tucked in Raphael and Lysandra and even Medusa as well on the bed. She was holding them protectively, her arms wrapped around both children like she’d never let go.

“Master…” She muttered in that cute voice and Azel couldn’t help himself.

Since the children were sleeping, he leaned forward and they began kissing with tongue and everything making sloppy sounds.

Her lips were soft and warm… she really tasted like the dessert they’d had after dinner.

“Papa, stop making those sounds.” Raphael said and both of them paused.

It turned out Raphael was talking in his sleep. Azel let go of Medusa and let her rest her head on the pillow.

“He’s really cute…” He said as he kissed her forehead. “Thank you.”

She smiled. “This is the first time in some months that you’re tucking me in Master… I love it.”

“Hey, at least the blanket can hold your stomach this time.” He rubbed her head affectionately and walked out of the room with one last wave, turning off the lights and closing the door.

It was the same in all other rooms. He had personally gone out of his way to ensure that all of them were tucked in and given forehead kisses too.

Mira had tried to stay awake to talk but dozed off mid-sentence.

Sybil had asked him to check under the bed for monsters, which was adorable coming from someone so capable.

Irielle had simply smiled and thanked him quietly.

Anastasia had pulled him down for a proper kiss before letting him go. She wasn’t subtle about what she wanted.

He had even done the same with Selene who had fallen asleep over here. She could go back to Lycas in the morning.

She’d passed out in one of the guest rooms, still wearing his shirt and her tail was curled around a pillow.

This was the bare minimum for a man with many wives.

“It really is a lot of work to take care of so many women.” He muttered as he placed a hand on his waist.

His back ached slightly. All that running around with the children, the tucking in, the conversations. It added up but the reward was seeing the smiles full of love on their faces. It honestly made his day.

Gwendolyn floated beside him, looking very jealous as he walked to his room. Her arms were crossed and her expression was pouty.

“Hey Az.” She said and Azel looked at her.

‘Huh?’

“I want a kiss too. I’ll be going to sleep in your soul today so you should give me a goodnight kiss.” She said cutely as her face reddened and he smiled. She was floating right beside him and he leaned over, giving her a kiss on the forehead.

Even though it felt cold since she was a ghost, it made her face warm up and he liked that. The temperature difference was always jarring, it was like kissing snow that somehow blushed.

“Goodnight Gwen.” He said and Gwendolyn turned to face him, moving close and kissing him on the lips. It was a short one and then she phased into his body, settling into his soul. She was truly sleeping now.

He walked over to the last room and the only room that had lights on in the whole mansion… His own room.

Light spilled from under the door and he could see shadows moving inside.

He entered inside and Stella was on his bed, closing a black book. She was wearing a black gown that left little to the imagination and it made her look more beautiful tonight.

The fabric clung to her curves which were sheer enough to tease but not quite transparent. The lamplight behind her made it worse.

He closed the door behind him.

“Stella…” He said and she smiled at him as she sat up on the bed, placing one leg over the other.

“How do I look?” She asked and then posed in a way that made both of her breasts puff out. “You sure do like my breasts… you were holding them pretty tightly in the shower.”

Azel blushed… That was a misunderstanding.

“It was a mista-“

“I don’t really mind, since it’s you.” She said as she patted the part of the bed next to her. “Take off your shirt too.”

Azel took off his shirt showing off his toned body unknowingly flexing all of his muscles.

Stella bit her lip. She had seen it when he barely had skin on his bones earlier today, and now it was full. It seemed really magical.

Azel walked over and sat next to her and she touched his chest. Her hand was cold and she pushed both of them down until they were lying side by side.

The bed dipped under their combined weight while her fingers traced patterns on his skin.

“Do you like what you see?” She asked and Azel chuckled.

“I mean you are pretty beautiful.” He said and she smirked.

“Say something that I haven’t heard before… Everyone tells me that everyday.” Stella said and Azel looked at her once before sighing.

“Well then, your ass looks pretty nice for someone who has a child.” Azel said and she looked at her backside.

“Well thanks, haven’t heard that one before… Wanna touch it?” She asked in a tease and Azel nodded.

“Sure.” He said and then his palm moved.

The Grand Mage’s cheeks turned a bit red as Azel’s left palm touched her ass and took a handful of it through her nightgown.

She bit down to prevent any elicit sounds from escaping her. There was just something so arousing about having her ass grabbed by a younger guy.

The age gap made it feel taboo which was exciting since she was supposed to be the mature one here.

“Well, like it? You can be in there one of these days.” Stella said then her hand touched his head as she pulled him down. “Now I need you to do something for me…”

His head rested against her breasts now and her hand ran through his hair lovingly.

“I want you to cry.” Stella said. “You’ve been really strong today… for the girls… for the kids… for everyone however it’s only the two of us now, I’ve set some sound proof runes on the doors and windows… it’s only be the both of us so I want you to cry.”

Azel didn’t answer… He was silent.

“Right now, think of me as one of your wives… let go of all of your frustrations… I’ll listen to everything you have to give.”

He couldn’t hold it back… It just came out no matter how hard he tried to hide it.

Azel cried and she comforted him.

Her fingers stroked through his hair while her other hand rubbed circles on his back. She didn’t say anything and just let him release everything he’d been holding in all day.

Everything all came pouring out…

On the night the Hero returned, he cried himself to sleep.
