When Yuki said she wanted to rest, she did not expect Nana to go out of her way to make an entire bed made of leaves and then let her use her lap as a pillow. She looked up at Nana, who was currently caressing her head with a gentle, loving expression on her face and felt a little embarrassed. “Nana, how are you supposed to rest if you are the one being used as a pillow?”

“This is fine,” Nana said with a smile. She was fine as long as Yuki was by her side. If Yuki had ever disappeared, she would have to turn the world upside down until she found her. In her life and all reincarnations after, there could only be one Yuki. Yuki was her forever partner, she would have no other.

Yuki pursed her lips and reached her arms up towards Nana’s face, and held her chin. “Don’t always spoil me. I should get to spoil you sometimes too.”

“Hehe.” Nana smiled and leaned down, and kissed Yuki’s lips. She then whispered in Yuki’s ear, causing Yuki to blush. Yuki’s cheeks were bright red as she glared at Nana and said: “We are too young for that! But…. We can kiss as much as you want.”

“Then I will get my fill when we get home. So, for now, let me pamper you.” Nana was very stubborn. But she knew her request was a bit too much. As mystic races, they normally married early and had children early. This was to keep their clans going. She knew this was not the case for her and Yuki. They could not bear children since they were both girls, but it did not mean they had to stay away from the other stuff.

 Yuki was about a year away from adulthood, while she was only a few months away. Her hormones were starting to kick in, making her want a bit more from her lover, but she knew she could not force it. She would need to settle for longer kissing sessions instead. What triggered her desire for more was partly Elder Nishikawa’s fault as well. It was due to the dual cultivation method she had given them.

Yuki couldn’t help but blush thinking about it. It was not that she did not want to experience such things. After all, she spent eighteen years in bed. But she also did not want to dive into things too quickly. She also knew she could not make Nana wait too long. So she would do what she could to help the girl she loved until she was ready. As she thought about it, she figured maybe she should just let nature take its course. If she felt uncomfortable, she would stop. If she were ready, she would keep going.

While Yuki was lost in thought, Nana pressed her finger on her brow. “Don’t think too hard about it. I was only asking. I can wait as long as you wish. I am in no rush.”

“Mmm….” Yuki nodded and pressed her face into Nana’s stomach. “I will try not to make you wait too long. But give me time.”

“Okay.” Nana smiled and continued running her fingers through Yuki’s hair.

While Nana was pampering her fox girl, Ami was cursing the day she was born. “Why are there so many evil people in this sect!”

It was true. Over the course of the past few days, the outer disciples of the sect had forgotten that they were being watched and were going wild. Ami had lost count of how many guys had come up to her asking her to give them some favors, and they would give her flags. She could only snort and swing her sword. What favors did she need to give when she could just take!? 

As Ami trudged through the forest, she heard a sound not too far from her. She picked up a rock and, without looking, chucked it at the location she sensed someone in. “Come out!”

“Ah!” A familiar cry came out of the bush. Not even a second later, she saw Ai, with a pitiful look on her face walking out of the bush with leaves stuck in her hair. “Ami, why did you have to toss a rock!? It hurt!”

“Why are you hiding in a bush!? You are stronger than half the people in this place! If you were not being sneaky, I would not have hit you with a rock!” Ami replied back. She walked over and, with a gentle look on her face, began plucking the leaves out of Ami’s hair. “Are you still not ready to fight humans?”

“I…. I don’t know. I was chased by a huge demonic beast and then ran into a group of disciples bullying another disciple. After that, I kind of forgot I was able to fight.” Ai really did forget. She had been hiding for so long that she just kept doing it.

“You never make sense, you realize that, right?” Amie sighed. “How many flags did you get?”

“Er…. I only found ten.” Ai replied because she was pushing through the underbrush and tickets, she had found quite a few flags.

“Not bad. For someone who did not even try to attack a fellow disciple. As for me…. I got like thirty now, but only because of idiots. You would be surprised at how many idiots I ran into. Many of which said: If you do this for me, I will give you some flags.” Ami sighed as she leaned against Ai and continued: “And it was not just guys either! I even had a girl who said the same thing!”

“Haha! Ouch!” Ai laughed only to get pinched. “Why did you pinch me!?”

“Why did you laugh at me!?” Ami shot back. Ai pursed her lips and looked away. Her waist hurt! 

“Alright, I am sorry. Let’s go find a place to sit and talk.”

“Why do you bastards always chase this Fatty!?” Fatty was running for his life. He had thirty people chasing after him at this moment, all of which were people he had angered due to his business. Since they could not kill him outside the mystic realm, this was their only chance to get rid of some of their anger. So they were all chasing after him with swords drawn, making poor Fatty run for his life.
