Chapter 10 Life 10 Celebrity or Dragon God?

Beeping, a steady beeping. That is the first thing that I became aware of. Then I could smell gauze and the slightly bitter smell of pure oxygen in my nostrils. I couldn't smell anything else. Then I heard the steady breathing of three people nearby. Then I felt pain. Both of my shoulders ached from deep wounds and I could feel the stitches in my skin. My body ached from severe burns on my chest and face. Finally I opened my eyes. I am lying in a hospital bed in a dark room. I can see Miki , Aika and Irina sleeping in chairs beside my bed. I shift slightly and a groan escapes from me as the pain escalates from my movement.

"You're awake!" Irina almost yells , startling Aika and Miki from their sleep. How are you feeling my love?"

"Like I just fought a monster and lost." I said.

"No, Ise, You didn't lose, You killed a monster that everyone thought was unkillable, and everyone on Earth knows it."

"Everyone?"

"Yes everyone." A new voice added. "Thank you fror saving Japan. I am deeply in your debt Lord Gremory."

I turned my head, and saw an older man in a suit, flanked by two Generals and an Admiral , walking through the doorway. The officers and touched their heads to the floor while the older man bowed . Suddenly I recognized the man in the suit. "Emperor Hiro?" I was shocked beyond words. The Emperor of Japan was bowing to me. I attempted to bow in return but a fresh wave of pain washed through me. I could hardly move.

"Please don't trouble yourself Lord Gremory," I am a mere man while you are a God who walks among us." Said Emperor Hiro.

"No, You are the son of Heaven and I am an unworthy boy in your presence." I stammered. "I am not a God."

"You are the Sekiryuutei." Said Emperor Hiro. "You are the Red Dragon Emperor God who killed the unkillable Kaiju."

"Please stand, your Majesty," I replied. "I am not a God and I do not wish to be worshiped as one. I am a Dragon, but I am not a God."

Miki, Aika and Irina were kneeling before Emperor Hiro. They recognized him before I did. "Please, everyone get up. This is making me extremely uncomfortable."

Emperor Hiro and the military officers stood as did my girlfriends. Emperor Hiro said. "I and everyone in Japan owe you our very lives, Lord Gremory. That is a debt that we can never repay. If you do not wish to be worshiped as a God, then I will abide by your wishes. Allow me to at least present you with this medal."

The Military officers snapped to attention when Emperor Hiro reached into the breast pocket of his suit and pulled out a small case. Then he opened the case and took out a medal."This is the Jugun kisho, The Medal of Honor, that has not been awarded since the end of the last World War. By my authority as the Emperor of Japan and by the authority of the Prime Minister and the Admirals and Generals of the Japanese Self Defense Force, I award you Gremory Issei with this Medal of Honor on the Eleventh of May In the Two Thousand Six Hundred and Seventy ninth year since the Founding of Japan" Then everyone including my girlfriends saluted and then bowed. "I wish to have an official award ceremony as soon as you are able, Lord Gremory, But I wanted personally to give you this award as soon as you were awake." Then after pinning the medal on my chest,, Emperor Hiro and the Generals and Admiral left the room, the Admiral pausing to close the door on their way out.

I turned to Kiryuu and asked. "Did that just really happen? Did Emperor Hiro just come to visit me?"

"Yes my love." then Aika pointed at my medal and said. "There is no hiding your secret now. You are the most famous person on Earth, and yes, to answer your unspoken question, You are already being praised as the Crimson Dragon God Emperor. All other Gods are myths and legend, but you Issei Gremory, are a God who walks the Earth, whether you like it or not, and I couldn't be happier. They are getting ready to build you a Palace in Kuoh Prefecture, and a Shrine in your honor is planed on the grounds of the Imperial Palace. Lexus, Acura and Infinity are fighting over who will award you with your official Limousine, Hell, There is already a crimson painted Rolls Royce Phantom under guard in the parking garage."

"Um, Aika, exactly how long have I been unconscious, and how did the Emperor know when to be here at the Hospital?"

All three of the girls started laughing, Then Irina said, "Are you kidding? You aren't in a hospital This is the Imperial Palace and you are in Emperor Hiro's Guest room. He has been waiting in the room across the hall and his aids have been standing outside of the door since you got out of surgery There is a fully staffed ER suite in the basement and Emperor Hiro's personal physician has been in charge of your care since you were airlifted here by ambulance three days ago. Doctor Ishido said that you would be waking up soon and the Emperor and his staff Officers have been waiting patiently for the last two hours

"Oh wow, I don't know what to say"

"Don't say anything." Miki said touching my lips softly. "You are healing at a phenomenal rate. You looked like you were going to die when you lost consciousness on the beach, but your heart was strong and for that I am grateful."

Soon doctor Ishido and a troupe of nurses came into the room and after examining me, Doctor Ishido said, "Well Lord Gremory, I can't believe how quickly you are healing, but you still need plenty of rest." and then after a final check, he and the nurses bowed and quietly left the room.

I slept.

Soon I was awake again. the gauze was gone from my face and my bandages were removed from most of my burns. I didn't hurt as much and the wounds on my shoulders were beginning to heal. Sunlight was streaming from the window and I could see Cherry trees and a Zen Garden outside. The girls were gone but a nurse was busily checking my blood pressure and pulse. The blood pressure cuff was what had awakened me. "Please Excuse me Lord." she said bowing, "I was trying to not disturb your sleep." Then she said, "Your friends have just stepped out a few minutes ago to meet with The Son of Heaven, and they will return soon, meanwhile, what would you like for breakfast.

Within a very short time A table and three dining chairs were brought into the room and one of the nurses raised the head of my bed and rolled the tray table across the bed in front of me. Then Waiters brought steamed rice and grilled Blue fin tuna with Miso Soup, and sukemono, nori, natto, kobachi, and a green salad. They were all served on fine china and Tea and Sake was poured into porcelain cups. All of the serving dishes cups and plates were of the highest quality and they were adorned with the Imperial seal inlaid in gold. After our meal was finished, a butler entered the room wearing a traditional Kimono, After bowing he announced, "Rooms are being prepared in the palace for you and your companions, The Son of Heaven wishes for you to be his personal guest until your own palace is completed. Please excuse me." Then he bowed again and left the room. Then the waiters returned and cleared away the dishes, table and chairs. and I was left alone with my lovers.

"Tell me what happened to Kuoh Prefecture after the battle? I asked.

"The fires were brought under control and most of the town was saved. A few of the houses burned down as well as some of the businesses. The School was saved and the residents who were left homeless have already been relocated into the Hotel. " Miki said. and then she added tearfully, " Our home and Irina's parents house were among the houses that were lost. That is one of the reasons that we will be living in the Imperial Palace for the time being."

A week later, I was well enough to be released by Doctor Ishido and I and my companions moved into our rooms in the palace. An official ceremony was held on the grounds of the Imperial Palace, and a Parade was held in Tokyo in my honor. There is no more going back to a quiet life in Kuoh Prefecture. I am a world famous celebrity and so are Miki, Irina and Aika. They are already known as the Brides of the Sekyruutei even though we aren't married yet. I suppose that it is better than referring to them as my Concubines. A special law was signed by the Prime Minister and Parliament, allowing an exception for me to have as many wives as I wish.

I still patrol the skies on most nights but it is no longer in secret, and I always have an escort of Military Fighters. The Navy and Air Force are rotating as escorts and pilots in both branches of Service compete for the honor to be my escort pilots. I am actually longing for anonymity , but I can't go back and change the past. As soon as I transformed in a crowded mall parking lot. there was no going back. Even Aika with her formidable mental power couldn't erase the memories of the whole town at once, and of course, within minutes of my transformation, the world News media already knew of my Identity.

Aika, Irina, and I are being tutored at the palace. We all still wish to be High School Graduates and of course, we already have scholarships waiting for us at any University on the planet if we so desire. I have been commissioned as an Admiral in the Japanese Navy, because I defeated Ghidorah and Rhodan and since the Kaiju have always attacked Japan from the ocean, The Emperor and Parliament felt that it was the most fitting military honor that they could give me. Some of the more enthusiastic junior officers were campaigning for me to receive the Title of Shogun, But I quickly put a stop to that. The only title that I am comfortable with is "Sekiryuutei" and that is the only title that I want. Of course I am also called Lord Gremory and because that title was first given to me by the Emperor of Japan, I cannot refuse it. I am a super hero without a secret Identity, An Admiral, a Celebrity and even though I do not want the title, I am hailed as The Red Dragon God Emperor.

The suite that we have in the Imperial palace is spacious and has many paintings and pottery from Japanese History in display cases. The furniture is well made and luxurious and the kitchen is well stocked. At first we had an executive chef but Miki prefers to do the cooking and she is continuing to teach Irina and Aika to cook in her "Hyoudou" style. "After all," she said one day, "We are all going to be the Sekiryuutei's brides. so we should all be able to cook what he enjoys."

The bedroom contains a king sized Western style bed with a full silk canopy, and curtains. The furniture in the entire suite are antiques, but they are of the highest quality and they are quite comfortable. There is only one TV in the suite, it is a 70 inch flat screen hidden by a two sliding book cases. Other than the modern plumbing and huge hot tub and the TV, the entire suite looks like a museum display. All of the girls were awed by the luxury and beauty when we first moved in. The first one to discover the bedroom was Aika,. She called Miki and Irina and said, Hey you two, come check out the bed, we need to have a foursome party to break it in properly."

"Fine by me," Miki said, "I get first dibs on Issei's tongue!"

"I get first dibs on his dick!" Shouted Irina.

Aika folded her arms and muttered, "I should have kept my mouth shut and just called you Ise."

I laughed and said, "I will spend extra effort on my Fingers Aika, I can also raise the temperature of my hand for added pleasure.

Aika nodded and smiled broadly. "Ooh that sounds intriguing, but you have to properly fuck every one of us today.

"OK, my love, I will be happy to take care of all of you until you are satisfied. Fucking pregnant women is so hot. I can't wait until you all give birth and start lactating"

"You Issei are a true pervert! Miki said in a disproving tone.

"Yep, I never denied that Miki, and you love it"

"Well, you definitely got me there" Miki whispered while guiding my hand under her shirt and bra.

Aika quickly grabbed my other hand and guided it into her panties.

They both smile at Irina because they scored points against her , but she just pulled off her skirt and panties and jumped onto my shoulders and wrapped her legs around the back of my head. Instinctively, in darted my tongue and I tasted her juices. Then Irina just grabbed the back of my head and said, "I win!" Then she said, "I'm not letting go until I cum, Ise."

Eventually, we all found the bed and all three girls were satisfied, then we showered, and climbed into the hot tub where they all took turns riding me in the hot water. Finally we were all exhausted and satisfied and we went back to bed to sleep. before drifting off Irina murmured, " I would have never dreamed that I would be fucking a Dragon God every day..."

I wanted to protest that I am not a God but she was already snoring softly. All three girls cannot hug me in their sleep but they don't really fight much over who sleeps next to me. Miki made a schedule for left, right, and odd girl out, but usually, during the night the odd girl just climbs over and falls asleep lying on top of me. It is a little game that we all play. we all pretend that it doesn't happen but by morning they are all wrapped in my wings when we wake up. What a life, will I ever go back to my old life where I am surrounded by girls who constantly block each other from having sex with me, or will I stay in this world and raise my children with the women who share me. I still miss Rias, Asia, Akeno, Koneko, Kuroka, Ravel and Elmenhilde, but if I go back, will I be as happy as I am now? I honestly can't answer that.
