Inside of the mind space, Rya saw Aster's body appear right next to her on the bed at the highest point of Hyperion, previously whenever he entered the mind space he would appear at the ground near where his soul avatar is always sitting, but now that he has increased his control over the mind space, even if it was just a bit, he could change where he appeared.

Rya saw Aster's handsome sleeping face and she pouted before she softly laughed, she stopped herself from looking at what was happening outside because she knew, he was going to be doing lewd stuff with the others.

But along her daily bath to nurture and prepare for Aster helping her accelerate the recovery of her soul, she received a quite… daring message from Lilia.

"Take the chance to learn while you can, otherwise Sarina might surpass you~", it's what she told her.

Rya has a pretty well understanding of the other girls, in her mind Sarina is a gentle and non-aggressive woman, who doesn't fight for attention, which itself has a charm to it.

As such, she is always willing to be the last one to take a turn and doesn't really try to monopolize Aster, she was the one with whom Rya thought she would get along the most, as she practically the contrary of Lilia.

But that image just crumbled apart earlier, Rya just awakened to the truth that the calm ones are quite scary when they decide for something, so she had started to consider Sarina a formidable rival for the main wife spot.

"I guess I should have expected it from someone that even corrupted me, lascivious dragons~", she cutely said as she rested her head on Aster's chest to sleep with him.

Previously she didn't have a need to sleep or even rest, but now that she has become "younger" and more human-like, she had started to enjoy daily mundane things, such as eating, chatting with Lilia and sleeping.

And like that, under the eternal starry sky of the mind space, those two slept snuggling with each other, surprisingly Lilia didn't barge in, well to be honest she did enter the mind space, but after seeing those two enjoying a calm sleep, she simply giggled and left, as she thought to herself.

'I guess I have teased her enough for a day~'.

And so, the hours passed in the mind space, until Aster's eyelids slightly trembled, he opened his eyes and enjoyed the sight of cute Empress peacefully sleeping in his embrace.

He could tell when the girls were in the mood for sex and when they just wanted some cuddles, he would never push them to anything just for his pleasure, not to mention this kind of interactions were good for him to.

Thinking on coming to spoil Rya later, he kissed her forehead, earning a few giggles from her, before he left the mind space, it had been around eight hours since he entered the mind space, which means it has been roughly an hour since he went to sleep in the outside world.

'To think it took me eight hours inside the mind space where I recover even faster than normal, that succubus mother of mine did wear me out this time…', thought Aster as he chuckled.

It's not like he hadn't been out for more than that, but normally after such a long session he goes to sleep in the outside world, eight hours of full recovery in the mind space amount to a lot.

Aster opened his eyes in the outside world, feeling fresh as a lettuce, he was still laying down naked on top of Lilia's body which had return to normal when her wings disappeared.

Due to that, his head which previously was resting on her chest when she was in her dragon form, was now resting on her belly, despite the fact that they were all sticky due to having broke a sweat after all that lovemaking, there wasn't any unpleasant smell in the room.

Much less on their bodies, Aster couldn't help but kiss Lilia's cute bellybutton, before using his soul energy to get up, as expected Lilia was already up since a while ago thanks to her monstrous body, she just remained quite and calmly observed her beloved son sleep with a sweet smile on her face until now.

Naturally how could she miss any chance to sweeten her darling's eyes, Lilia extended her pretty hand towards Aster, as she posed like a noble lady waiting for a gentleman to help her stand up.

"Come one, you did it like crazy already mom!", Alice who recently woke up just to see her mother seducing Aster right of the bat, jumped from the bed landing on the air in front of Aster, as her tail wrapped around his waist for support.

Sarina and Aria also approached Aster and gently held onto him, making Aster laugh, he helped Lilia get up and then said.

"Let's clean ourselves, so I'll go check on Kana and then we'll have a nice family dinner with my Sarina's delicious food".

Those four laughed and then followed Aster to the bathroom where they helped clean and wash each other, after finishing changing, with a snap of Aster's fingers, his Rigel's flames cleaned the mess in the room, getting rid of all the "fluids" that were produced during the previous session, in a few seconds the enticing sweet smell was replaced by a relaxingly fresh and clean fragrance.

Only then they left the room, Lilia went with Sarina to the kitchen since she wanted to prepare something for her darling by herself, while Alice and Aria went straight to the training room, where Tiana was waiting for them, since they felt full of energy right now.

As for Aster he left the mansion and went into the forest, the sun would be leaving the sky in an hour or so, and judging by the stars that had started to become visible it was going to be a pretty night.

It wasn't hard for Aster to find his way to where the little girl was, in part because Espi's figure could be seen from afar, and also because he could hear the cute laughing voice of Kana and surprisingly Mira.

Another thing he immediately noticed the moment he left the mansion was the big tree that stood in the middle of the forest, near that river which was used as a private pool by Aster and the girls, that was Nim's clone which had started to prepare the land for when its main body can be taken out of the mind space, so that its consciousness can live in it, because what would be moving around, following Aster will be the clone for a variety of reasons.

"Hey, you are finally out, do all humans mate for hours, do you have to do it inside a room, how many times can you do it, are humans always…", the moment the chatterbox Runic Oak detected Aster's presence, it shrank into a mini hand sized tree and came flying towards Aster to make a ton of weird questions, which made Aster bitterly smile, luckily, he knew how to handle this curious three.

"I'll show you how we humans interact, without any ulterior move, is the base of what we call "friendship", but you have to be quiet and just observe", he said.

The mini three sparkled at Aster's "generous" offer, in Nim's mind, someone that was always surrounded by girls who were happy at all times, must be a social success, and that knowledge was priceless for it as it would help to understand humans better.

Naturally Aster was basically scamming the three, just so it didn't bombard him with tons of strange questions, but there was no need for Nim to know that.

Aster soon reached an open area within the forest of the valley, and then smiled as he heard some sounds coming from the bushes that were ahead of him, Kana suddenly appeared out of thin air, and tackled him.

Of course, the light as a feather little girl, couldn't even move Aster who just welcomed her with open arms.

"Big brother~", she cutely said as she hugged Aster, to then grab his hand and drag him along.

"Come big brother, it is still not finished but I want you to see the garden I have been working on with aunt Helena and sister Dahlia!", she said with an enthusiastic voice.

Aster happily followed her, past the bushes from which she came there was an even larger open area, this is where Espi's nest was located, apparently Kana chose the nearby area to make her garden, because this way she could come play with the little wyrm.

Once they passed some tall trees, Aster's eyes glowed as he saw the area in which Kana and the pair of aunt and niece from the Green Lotus faction had been working on, it was totally different of what he remembered.

Besides Espi's house, there was a sea of pretty flowers with a wide path that surrounded and went through the garden, a shallow pond and a recreative area with a large table that could be used for picnics or tea parties, it was like a though smaller quite refined version of the secret room of the store where Helena and Dahlia lived.

With the current color of the sky, a specific part of the flower sea looked specially eye catching, there were some kind of sunflower that were releasing a pretty dim orange light, followed by white flowers that were slowly changing their color to a light blue, it was quite the visual spectacle.

Those weren't spirit herbs with medicinal properties, but decorative ones, however the scent produced by the sea of flowers was quite relaxing and to Aster's surprise, the spirit energy in this area was though just a bit, denser than in other parts of the forest he has explored so far.

And it was natural, because there was no spirit gathering formation set up here, which picked Aster's interest, but that could wait for later, since he could feel the "Praise me" gaze of the little girl piercing him like a spear, which was honestly cute.

Aster patted Kana earning some giggles from her, as he asked.

"Did you choose the flowers and the design of the garden by yourself?", he asked, to which Kana happily nodded.

"Mm, aunt Helena showed me different kinds of flowers and those two fitted perfectly for the idea I had in mind, but it wasn't just me, you should have seen how smart is Espi big brother!".

"It saw me struggling to prepare the land and helped me by changing its size and digging around to remove large stones and roots that were in the way, it even helped me plant the seeds in the right places", she said as she pointed at the little wyrm which was approaching them.

Aster could also see Mira who was sitting on the branch of a tall tree, looking like a grumpy cat that doesn't want to come down, which made Aser inwardly laugh at the comparison.

"I see, it's good to see that you two are getting along so good, since you'll be coming with me for the next mission", said Aster, which made Kana's eyes sparkle.

"Hissss~", even the little wyrm happily hissed, as it understood the meaning of Aster words, despite the fact that it could only communicate with Kana, it perfectly understood what others said.

Aster inwardly smirked and then added.

"Ah, of course, Mira can come too, as long as she wants to", the ligress girl was about to refuse when Kana started cheering up.

"Really, thanks big brother, I had a lot of fun with Espi and sister Mira, even if we just got to meet not too long ago!", she said.

Mira's refusal stuck in her throat after seeing that little angel-like girl be so happy, just because she stuck around as she wanted to see that strange wyrm up-close, just to end up chatting and making company to the little girl who was frolicking in the flower garden and jumping around with the wyrm.

"Big brother, here let me serve you some tea I prepared myself!", said the little girl with an enthusiastic expression as she guided Aster to the table, not without turning to see Mira to say.

"You too sister Mira, everyone liked the tea I prepare, even Espi~".

"Yes, come and join us "sister" Mira", said Aster as he sat at the table, making Mira softly growl at him.

Ultimately, she gave up and jumped from the tree branch, to perfectly land and sit in front of Aster, even Espi approached the table, to wait while Kana prepared the tea, in case you wonder how it worked for Espi whose body was more than one hundred meters large, it shrank until it was around twenty centimeters, and properly occupied a "seat".

"Here!", Kana finished quite fast, she poured a cup to each one and happily waited to see them try it for the first time, in Aster and Mira's case.

Now, Aster is normally not too fond of hot drinks, but this tea was quite good, even the grumpy ligress girl couldn't help but be amazed at the taste.

"It's good…", she mumbled which made Kana sweetly smile, she didn't need to hear Aster's answer, because she was sitting on his lap, getting head pats from him, as for Espi, it was using its little tongue to drink from the cup, with a delighted expression.

It was a strange tea party, but Kana enjoyed it a lot, Aster asked her what she did during his absence and the little girl told him everything and while Mira limited to mostly drink from her cup and ask for more, she actually laughed a bit from time to time.

As for the little wyrm, it hissed at some parts as if it was participating in the conversation, in fact it was thanks to Kana translating, very much to Mira's surprise.

With Kana's bright laughs and delicious tee, the time flew by and before anyone noticed the moon as already illuminating the starry sky of the valley, they actually chatted, listened and drank tea, for about two hours.

Aster saw the little girl fidgeting as she hesitated to say what was in her mind, and he smiled.

"What happened, you can always rely on me you know?", he said as he gently caressed Kana's silky hair.

Kana nodded in response before saying.

"Big brother, are you going to help me train during our mission… it was fun to beat that bad guy last time", she said in a low voice.

"…".

Aster remained silent for a moment before he laughed out loud, apparently the little girl felt a bit embarrassed because she had fun beating the crap out of Ley back then.

"Of course, I'll help you train as much as you want".

"Yeeei!", Kana happily hummed after getting the answer she wanted, making Aster smile, while Mira observed them with a somewhat conflictive expression.

On one hand she still held it against Aster for "capturing" her, but she had to admit that out of all the people that could have discovered her true name, Aster was one of the better outcomes.

"Humph", she softly snorted as she drank from her cup, just to feel he urge to murder something, when she heard Nim saying.

"Hey Ligress woman, are you feeling like mating after this human ritual?".

And with the never ending arguing between Mira and Nim, as well as Kana's laugh and Espi's hisses, the tea party ended, originally Aster was going to start with his plan regarding Espi today, but the little girl deserved all his attention, so he postponed it for later.

Not only because he wanted to, but because Esmeralda had told him how hard she has been working to improve, certainly Kana is a genius, but she also works as hard as her body allows her to, because she wants to walk alongside Aster.

For someone like her with a gentle nature by innate, to have such a strong resolution to become stronger, is quite rare, anyone who sees such a fragile-looking girl training like she does with Esmeralda, would be moved.

And yet she never complains nor shows any signs of being tired, because she does it for the sake of be closer to her beloved big brother, such a good girl deserves to be rewarded, which is why Aster had decided to take her with him in more missions than what he had thought.

"We wondered why weren't you returning, turns out you were all enjoying such a nice place without us, no fair~", Lilia's voice suddenly drew the attention of Aster and the others.

They turned around just to see, all the girls coming from within the forests, carrying all sorts of dishes, which they then placed on the table.

"I think dinning outside under the light of the moon from time to time, might be a good change, don't you agree", said Sarina as she smiled at her daughter.

"Mm, the air here is quite fresh and the scenery is lovely", said Aria as she sat next to Alice, who took the seat directly at Aster's left.

Surprisingly Sarina occupied the seat at Aster's right, which made Lilia's right eyebrow twitch, but she sighed and abided by the bet she made and sat next to Sarina, which made the other girls laugh.

But the one who was enjoying this the most was Kana, having all her sisters and aunts surrounding her, smiling and having a good time together made her happy.

Naturally she had her usual glutton competition with Alice, while they fought to personally feed Aster, just to both be outsmarted by Lilia who stood from her seat and hugged Aster from behind, to then look at him with needy eyes and ask him to feed her.

And so another household rule, which consisted in dinning at Kana's garden in the valley, was born like that, probably a bigger flower garden will be needed in the future to accommodate more people, but that will only keep the little girl happy in the incoming years.
