Chapter 130: Chapter 130: The Wives Certainly Won’t Complain About the Extra Real Estate?!
He stepped out of the shower and while he was toweling off he caught his own reflection in the full length body mirror in the bathroom and stopped.
"Hot damn."
"I look even better." He thought smiling and posing in front of the mirror.
His build had changed a lot more than expected with his muscles looking more filled out and more refined and perfect.
’I seriously didn’t think my muscles could actually look any better, and I don’t look like those monstrous looking over muscled dudes.’
His shoulders were a bit broader while his frame was packed with a dense and compact kind of muscle that looked like it took functionality rather than pure showy.
It wasn’t like the vanity bulk of a bodybuilder but it was just real lean muscle that made his entire physique look like it had been put through a magical upgrade.
He turned slightly striking more poses and trying to study his full body and as he posed he noticed something else that caught his attention.
"Huh, I think I actually got taller than before."
He then measured himself against the mirrors frame out of pure curiosity, as he had done the same the last time he got a hardware upgrade and confirmed it with a small but noticeable increase.
’A few centimeters sure but it’s an increase none the less.’
’Hell I’m not even that tall by this worlds standards, with them having all those gigantic monsters and beasts, and even some intelligent fantasy races who are huge even when compared to me.’ He thought.
’But the main attrchere is my muscles, Eve will be having her dream day the next time we dual cultivated.’ He thought funnily as the things she loved just below her snacks were his muscles, though if you asked her she wouldn’t confirm nothing saying her true love is food.
As he continued his masterful posing and checking every single change that had come with the new upgrades, his gaze drifted downward as he paused then blinked.
’Wait a damn second, did I get bigger there too?!’ He thought confused for a second as a slow and wicked grin spread across his face.
"Well, the wives certainly won’t complain about the extra real estate, that’s for sure." he said smiling smugly.
Then his gaze drifted to what he could see of his back as he saw the three marriage bond tattoos running down his spine with two of the three being sharper now with finer linework, more intricate details and looking more beautiful and obviously cooler than before.
"They certainly do look more epic than before, the system’s tastes are immaculate, if it was the one that designed it." He thought as a warm smile spread across his face.
Aurelia’s crossed blades with the fire, Seraphina’s wing and rose vines and Evelisse’s wings and stars being largest of the three on his shoulders and upper back.
As he saw the last one his expression softened.
’Aura and Sera have both crossed into Lover rank and I could get their bond tatoo upgrades but Evelisse hasn’t crossed just yet.’ He thought but he didn’t feel disappointed, not even slightly.
’That little glutton’s still working up the nerve to say things out loud instead of teasing and complaining them into existence.’
He could picture her first time exactly as she shoved food into her mouth at dinner while insisting she was only eating because it would otherwise go to waste and that they had nothing else while she glared at him the entire time she ate.
’She has come a long way from then, my cute little glutton wifey.’ He smiled.
’Well I’m in no rush right now so I’ll just keep spoiling her until she runs out of comebacks and complaints, both with snacks and my muscles.’ He laughed as he headed out to the room.
He put on a t-shirt and shorts while deliberately keeping every motion slow and controlled trting not to break anything.
’Carmilla?’ He reached inward through the contract calling his so called master and self proclaimed sugar mommy.
’Hmm? What is it, my adorable little disciple?’
’Please stop calling me that.’ He said, a bit scared that he was already getting used to the term.
’No, you are way to entertaining and funny for me to stop it.’ She laughed as he sighed.
’Fine so what are you up to?’
’Helping my genius little sisters make sense of their new cultivation techniques, obviously, someone has to, not everyone’s like you with their crazy levels of comprehension.’ She said as.she saw.it in action with the Foundation Severance Technique he improved, but she wasn’t sure how high of a comprehension he had and whether it was actually his comprehension, but she didn’t care to find out as it was his secret.
’And you, still cultivatiing?’
’No, I’ve finished for today.’ He said, still wondering how he would explain his S Rank Cultivation to her, if it was just his wives it would have been easy as he could tell them about the system and how it worked or something else like explaining it as a talent.
’How are they doing?’
’Aurelia’s practically inhaling hers, she keeps asking me how she can fuse her weapon intents into the mana circulation.’
’I think she’s trying to invent a new technique before she’s even cultivated he cultivation technique once.
’That tracks, it is Aura were talking.’ He could picture her exactly, weapon in one hand with her cultivation technique in the other as she stopped swinging every few seconds to start scribbling notes.
’Seraphina’s cross referencing and learning more about her desire and dream affinities first as she’s new to it, but she’s already got a theory about something alchemy realted with it.’ Carmilla said impressed with her talent for alchemy.
’Of course she does, my Sera is the best.’ He said not surprised, as she just needed a little push to gain her confidence and she would sky rocket.
’And Evelisse?’ He asked, wondering what his snack loving wife was up to.
’Has she run back to watching her anime after getting bored of sitting?’
’The little glutton is trying very hard to concentrate, your snack bribery worked wonders.’
’And I just had to light ankther fire under her and she practically jumped at the technique.’ Carmilla’s mental tone turned slightly and unmistakably amused.
’Light a fire?’
’Hahaha, I said that if she could surpass you, she could take all of the snacks she wanted for herself and she wouldn’t have to deal with your blackmailing.’ Carmilla burst out laughing.
’And since you just reset she’s more pumped than ever.’
’Though she’s asked me four times now whether reading counts as exercise and whether exercise earns her a small snack privilege.’
’That’s what you meant by trying?’ He shook his head at his third wife’s snack addiction.
"Of course she wants to eat." Lucien closed his eyes as Carmilla’s laugh rippled through his mind.
’She’s actually doing well though as I’m walking her through her Holy, Light, and Darkness affinities.’
’Thank you for that Carmilla, genuinely.’
’They are my little sisters but you’re welcome!’
’So, when’s dinner?’
’I can’t wait to taste it using your mouth again.’ She said innocently.
’You’re a Goddess, surely you have a way to feed yourself or even taste without me right?’ He asked sighing.
’I absolutely can.’ She said not clarifying what she was answering.
’But food tastes better when someone else makes it for you.’ She laughed.
’And the tasting part?’
’There is no other way since I am a poor tiny soul clone, well besides sharing my sugar disciple’s senses.’
’You’re an impossible master.’ He pressed two fingers to his temple.
’And you’re still my favorite disciple.’ She laughed.
’I’m your only disciple currently.’ He said.
’Exactly that’s why you’re my favorite but even if there were others no one could replace my dear sugar baby.’ She joked.
’I’ll keep that in mind.’ He said and found himself smiling despite everything.
He ended the mental conversation while shaking his head at all the nonsense as he headed out the room and towards the stairs.
’It really has been a while since I cooked for them.’
Between the dungeon, Carmilla, three foundation rebuilds, and his own breakthrough and everything else something as simple and something that he very much enjoyed such as standing in a kitchen had quietly fallen off the list for some time.
’I miss it.’ He thought missing the sound of sizzling and the arguing over who gets the last piece between Evelisse and him.
Even Evelisse’s cute face when something turned out better than she expected and then she’d stuff her cheeks full like a chipmunk.
"All right," he said smiling and heading for the stairs.
"Let’s fix that, today I’ll make dinner for them."
’I’m sure Eve is missing her husband’s mana infused cooking, though Sera is also an amazing cook, so maybe not?’
The estate was quiet downstairs with the kitchen untouched since breakfast as the girls spent the entire day learning and he cultivating.
"Let’s see what we’ve got in stock." He said as he rolled up his sleeves.
’Something filling and delicious for Eve with a sugary dessert to end it for her, like always.’ He decided as she’d eat through anything less than a full spread in no time.
’Something refined and delicious for my gentle Sera.’
"And something with real kick to it for my spicy Aura.’ He thought since she practically loved the spicy good last time.
"Cooking for three completely different types of appetites." He huffed a laugh.
He started pulling ingredients, moving with the easy confidence of someone who’d done this a hundred times thanks to the systems cooking rewards.
Though he kept his new strength deliberately leashed the entire time, slowly releasing more as he got better at controlling it while cooking.
After the previous incident, accidentally breaking the kitchen would be a genuinely embarrassing way to start dinner.
’Who would have thought that cooking wpuld be a good way of training my new strength, body control and coordination all at the same time.’
As he worked the ingredients his thoughts briefly drifted back to his new and ridiculous cultivation rank.
’Peak S Rank, a rebuilt foundation, two bloodlines that shouldn’t be able to exist together and mana core the size of a small sea.’
’I’m quite the genius if I do say so myself, or maybe monster is a better term, but surely there are more monsters put there on level or higher, considering the population, size and variety of this world?’ He thought and laughed at his own joke as he flipped a piece of meat searing in the pan.
’Plenty of time to actually test all of that later, first thing to do now is feed my hardqprking family.’
As right now, there was something more important waiting for him upstairs with that being the three women who’d spent all day buried in scriptures and by now were all probably hungry and with one, maybe two including his master definitely about to argue over dinner the second it hit the table.
He smiled, reaching for a knife to chop some vegetables.
"Let’s give them all something worth looking forward to."
