Hello, my dear readers. How have you all been? Well, I hope.

How many of you guessed that I would be writing another chapter for "A Devil's Flock" this year?

Don't raise your hands, because it surprises me as much as you all do. Four chapters in one year for this fic. That is pretty good if you don't mind me saying.

Of course, nothing can be perfect because when I started on this chapter, notifications fell out and no emails were sent hence why I saved this one up for a bit until I was certain that it could be posted.

The schedule is still looking good.

When I had the anniversary, I went to see the Burning Witches. They are still so awesome and if you read this, and you like 80's metal, go see those ladies. They are awesome!

The review count is at 77, which is six more than the last time. Given the fact that it's been just a bit, I don't think that is too horrible.

490 favorites. Increase of 27 since last time. Not too shabby. I do hope that I get past the 500 until next time.

545 followers. Increase of 23. Thank you all.

Also, the poll has been somewhat hopeful for me.

18 votes are in favor of Ravel joining Minato's harem. 4 have been against that. So we'll have to make plans for that.

In a bit of a month, that is great for me.

No guest reviews, so we'll get into the story.

Some of us, including myself, are going to enjoy this chapter.

Minato hadn't expected that he would be moving out so soon from Miya's house, especially not after the hassle they had of moving into the place.

Then again, he had winged nearly ten Sekirei in the span of a month and he still had six pieces left over.

They were still in Miya's house, in the process of moving out of the place. Of course, his own packing had to happen, which was the least of worries, as several of his Peerage had to find their own belongings, including Matsu.

Serafall Leviathan was an excellent master of Minato Sahashi and, by proxy, of his Peerage as she had also gotten rooms and accommodations for all of his Peerage Members.

All women had their own bedrooms (although Minato doubted that they would sleep in his bed) with their own wardrobes that they could fill.

The house had also been stocked with every possible item that could be foreseen as required in a house.

From kitchen utensils to furniture and everything in between, the house could immediately welcome its inhabitants.

Magic was a wonderful thing. Plus, Serafall dealt with hypnotizing everyone required to deal with it.

Never in his life, was Minato Sahashi so grateful for a woman like Serafall. He would have to give her a serious thank you.

While his Flock was busy packing their stuff, Minato slipped out as he whispered a few words (and a few sweet nothings) in Kazehana's ear.

The Wind Flower took on her role as second in command, as she knew that Minato had to return a favor.

Before they would move out, and that would come in the next two days, Minato was going to help out Uzume.

It was a shame that she was winged. The Ashikabi/Devil was a dream guy to get winged to.

Even if he wasn't human, he still did his best and so did his Peerage/Flock as, so far, they performed their duties as he wished from then.

All of them got big thank yous for how they had behaved at the party. Benitsubasa, Haihane, and Hikari especially made him worry about how they would act and they kept their cool.

There would be even more romance in the house. If she were to guess, most of his Sekirei wanted more from their Ashikabi.

Kazehana knew that it would come down to her. Maybe, it was better if she followed her heart and body, and let the rest take care of itself.

Minato had another focus. Helping out Uzume and wondering what the favor was that she wanted from him.

The Ashikabi knocked three times on her bedroom door. It remained quiet, so he knocked again. The sound of stumbling became clear.

Sometimes, he wondered why she came out in just panties and bra, as she looked sleepy. The Sekirei yawned during the opening of the door.

"Eh, King. Do you have any idea what time it is?"

"It's two in the afternoon, Uzume-chan. Had a rough night?"

For a brief second, there was an incredible sadness in her eyes. Uzume did have one rough night and she hoped it would be the last one.

Minato didn't miss it, but he would wait to see how she'd react.

"Kinda, yes. Don't you have to oversee the packing, King? You'll be moving out soon."

There was another sadness in her eyes, but Minato shelved that up for later.

"In a few days. Myself and Miya are working out the details. And well, it's not like it's cramped. If you want, you can move in with me, if you'd like."

Gears began to turn in Uzume's head. Miya's Inn was a neutral ground for Sekirei. But Minato's wasn't and something told her that she could help out Chiho that way as well.

"You're serious, King? Won't your Sekirei blow a gasket if you'd invite another Sekirei in? One that is winged?"

Minato put his hands in his pockets and leaned against the wall.

"I wouldn't say it if I wasn't. Give it some time to think. No pressure. Now, I am here for another thing. I owe quite a few favors due to your help, especially with the clothes."

The brunette stretched which made Minato avert his gaze. She was a beauty and then some, he found it a damn shame that she was winged already.

But it was a matter of respect.

She knew she was sexy and it flattered her somewhere that he looked away.

"There is indeed a matter of which you can help in order to pay me back, King. Can I borrow you for a few hours?"

For a brief second, Minato pondered about that.

"I think so but let me run it by the wives. I take it that we are going out."

The Veiled Sekirei nodded with a huge grin.

"Yes. Give me two minutes so I can get dressed and you can ask them."

It was Minato's turn to cackle when he heard that.

"A woman getting dressed in two minutes, never gonna happen. You'll find me downstairs."

The Ashikabi cackled when he ran back to his women while Uzume couldn't stop her own giggle. She began to like that guy even more.

'Chiho, baby. I hope that you like him as much as I do. That Devil is one of the best things to ever happen.'

Minato came back to his flock and found that they were all going around and squabbling like little children.

There were three teams, two of each, that were in conflict.

Benitsubasa and Haihane were arguing with Hikari and Hibiki while Musubi and Kusano were also involved.

Akitsu remained out of it, dutifully packing while Yume tried to pull Musubi away. Matsu was laughing as she watched the drama unfold.

Kazehana had her hands on her head while she couldn't stop them from arguing. A part of her wasn't sure how they were talking and how to stop them.

Miya was about to unleash a Hanya mask but Minato put his hand up. The Innkeeper got the message and let the Ashikabi handle this.

"ENOUGH!"

It was like time slowed and all of them, even the ones who were not in trouble, turned to Minato.

"What is going on? Kazehana?"

The Wind Flower felt a relief that she would let her lover take care of this.

"The girls are saying that they need more suitcases, so Benitsubasa wants to borrow the suitcase of the Twins, who were trying to convince Musubi-chan and Kusano-chan to lend them a suitcase. Hence this debacle."

Minato snapped his fingers and from the roof, a dozen suitcases dropped.

"That should suffice. For the mature ones here, I am going out with Uzume-chan. She asked me to return the favor that I owe her. It requires me to go out. You have behaved so well during the party in the Underworld. For Pete's Sake. Keep that up. For the ones who didn't misbehave, Kazehana, Akitsu-san, Yume-san? Kisses?"

The [Queen] was closest and growled into her kiss when she felt the arms of Minato around her waist.

Akitsu had gotten up in a remarkably composed fashion but found herself assaulting Minato in a more violent fashion while she was trying her hardest not to blush.

Yume smirked and grinned when she felt how her arms were pressed to the side of Minato.

A pep in her step came through when she walked back to packing.

"Why don't I get a kiss?" Matsu pouted which made Minato glare at her.

"You enjoyed the problems. That is on you, Matsu-san. I'll see you all when I am back home. I do hope that I don't have to get a phone call."

Uzume watched back on how Minato walked over to her. Instead of his grey sweater, he had chosen a heavier black one with a hoodie.

Uzume was wearing her usual attire, a pink sweater with a star on and jeans that clung to her legs.

"Women trouble?"

"Laying down the law helps. Where are we going, Uzume-chan?"

The Sekirei smiled as she walked outside of the Inn and next to Minato.

"We are going to see my Ashikabi. And we are going there in a human fashion." The Devil grinned when he heard that.

"Good to know." Pulling up his hoodie, he was sure that he would keep his identity a secret. He had never heard from Uzume's Ashikabi so there must be a good reason.

Scene skip

On the train, Uzume was seated while Minato leaned against the pole next to her.

"Uzume-chan, if you don't mind me asking, what sort of person is your Ashikabi? Whoever has winged you, is one lucky guy."

Uzume knew she would have to put his mind at ease.

"My Ashikabi is female. Her name is Chiho Hidaka." Minato's eyebrows were raised when he heard that revelation.

"I see. Why do you want me to meet her?"

The Sekirei looked away, which made Minato sigh and cross his arms.

"You want my help." The Devil began to talk in a stern but not unfriendly tone as he waited for her.

"But I cannot help you unless you tell me what your situation is."

Uzume looked back at him while he kept his expression.

"I won't claim that I know much about Sekirei. But from what I have experienced, they love to be around their Ashikabi. So it's abnormal that she lives apart from you."

The Veiled Sekirei had high hopes for Minato Sahashi. So far, he had been proving her right. She would put her trust in him.

"Minato, if I tell you, I'll need your promise that you'll help me. That is the most important factor now."

The Devil mulled over that thought while he rubbed his collarbone.

"I'll do what I can. I am not exactly a miracle worker." Uzume's laugh was not her usual, flirtatious giggle. More a bark that made her break the dark thoughts.

"Given what you have done so far, I'd be mistaken if you weren't one."

The Ashikabi's eyes darkened and she could read something else in his eyes.

"Miracles don't ask for a price. I'll hear you out and see how far I can go. Now, talk to me, Uzume-chan."

The brunette knew that she would be taking huge risks, but it was better that she relied on Minato now.

"Chiho-chan has a deadly disease. From what I picked up, it's terminal but no one really knows what she has. The treatment is only slowing down the disease."

Minato pondered about that news for a bit.

"I'm not a doctor. If you wanted that, I could have asked Ajuka-sama or some others. I'm not exactly well-versed in that. But that is not the threat that Chiho-san is facing. What is the bigger issue?"

Uzume took a big gulp and she felt that she was so alone. So lonely. No one to rely on. No one that she could count on.

How many more times would she have to carry out the dirty jobs of Higa before she fully broke?

Like Minato heard her thoughts, he flopped down next to her, and a strong arm was wrapped around her shoulders.

Pulling her closer, Uzume didn't try to break from the grasp. She could feel his strength, he didn't let her go, and she didn't want him to.

"Take a breath. There is no rush, I am not going anywhere." The comforting words made her find the glimmers of hope that she was hunting for.

He didn't have to go anywhere and just let Uzume cry on his shoulders. Soft, shaking sobs went on his shirt while he kept rocking her.

Minato Sahashi had gotten his strength. He had been protected long enough.

They would continue like that until Uzume saw the stop. She signaled Minato, who helped her up. They remained in close personal contact when they got off the train.

Sekirei Number Ten felt a lot better, and she didn't want to let go of Minato.

They kept in close contact as they walked together.

"You still haven't answered. What is the problem that you are facing?"

Uzume knew that he wouldn't let that go.

"Chiho-chan's treatment is complicated. Due to some personal issues, something you should ask Matsu-nee about, I can't rely on MBI to help me out. The owner of that hospital, Higa Izumi, is also a participant in the Sekirei Plan. Don't ask me why, but he feels he needs to win this Damned Game."

The name rang a bell with Minato.

"So what is the exact issue with you and Chiho-san? She is getting treated there, but how does that relate to you and MBI?"

Minato saved the information up for later and waited while Uzume talked.

"As you know, the screwball that we have to call Game Master has rules in place. Those rules are highly inconvenient for Higa. Given the position that I find myself in, he is tasking me to his dirty work. I don't have an option. I either take care of his demands or he stops the treatment of Chiho."

The Devil felt a deep pit of anger in his stomach which made him fume.

Cooling down the heat of his fury, he had to rely on coldness to take care of this.

"With your position, you couldn't ask for help. Miya is neutral, so you went to me. I do wonder why though?"

Uzume rolled her eyes and there was relief that she got some humor again.

"I have seen what you have done, King. The things you have done. Akitsu-san, Yume-san, Kazehana-neesan. If there is anyone who can save my Ashikabi, it's you."

There was another part in which Uzume wanted Chiho to be saved. Not herself. Minato found that what Uzume was asking, was not too easy.

"To help you two, we need two things. We need to break you free from that scumbag's clutches. And we need to figure out how we save Chiho-san's life."

The streets kept on turning and Minato began to feel increasing hostility from the place. He found eyes on him so he pulled up his hoodie. Harder to track down someone whose face was covered with that.

"Can't you reincarnate her? I mean, it did save Akitsu-san and brought Yume-san back."

Minato shook his head.

"I wish it was that easy. If that disease is terminal, her body is weak. Reincarnating a living person, requires them to have a certain strength. If I wait until she is expired, you are dead. Plus, as you might know, most of my Sekirei had time before they agreed to be reincarnated. For that, I'll need to build trust with Chiho-san. That'll take time. Besides, if she is as ill as you claim, it'd be something to consider."

Uzume blinked a few times and hoped that he would continue to talk.

"What do you mean?"

"If no one can pinpoint the disease, and it eats at her, there is a high chance that Chiho-san has another issue. She could possess a [Sacred Gear]."

"A what?"

"A [Sacred Gear]. Those are powerful items bestowed upon humans from The Big Guy Up There. They are predominantly used to fight back against Super Natural Creatures."

The Sekirei blinked thrice and found herself baffled by that explanation.

"You gotta be kidding me? My Chiho-chan has that sort of thing in her?"

The Devil just shrugged on that remark while he continued the walk.

"As I said, it's a possibility. Some [Sacred Gears] can kill or sicken their hosts if they are not discovered. If she has one, I'd be worried about what sort. I'm not too keen on looking that up."

Uzume raised an eyebrow.

"Some Super Natural Creatures are keen on collecting them or looking for [Sacred Gears]. It's a great point of interest, but not one that I share."

Uzume caught up to him and crossed her arms under her sizeable bust. Her eyes watched on Minato.

"I was never too interested in them and when I got my time to fill a Peerage, I found myself winged to Sekirei. So there is that to consider. But we'll see."

The two continued their walk to the place and Minato began to feel some presence around the hospital.

There was a good chance that the Sekirei he had faced were part of Higa's Flock or they would be associated with him in another way.

"Uzume-chan, there is a good chance that there are enemies inside. I got some simple spells. I'll follow you all the way but you won't be able to see me." The Devil didn't wait for confirmation, and it was like he disappeared.

Uzume knew that he was probably true. Higa had the entire hospital rigged. It was his property.

"King, the same can be said about the inside. Something to keep in mind." Minato knew that would be the case, so he would just take care of that.

Sirzechs or Serafall could shut down the entire hospital (if they had a reason to be subtle). He may not be as powerful as the Ssatan's, but a room he could fool for a bit.

Uzume trusted that Minato would be around her. Despite his body being invisible, she could feel his presence. He was around her. He wouldn't let her walk in alone.

Inside the hospital, Uzume had to go to the desk.

"Ah, Uzume-san. Back to visit Chiho-chan?" The front desk nurse asked as she watched how Uzume got closer.

Minato admitted that she would make a fantastic actress.

"Yes. It's now visitation hours, so no check-in?"

"Just sign out when you leave. You know the drill." Minato had already picked up several cameras and saw security.

It wouldn't be easy to get Chiho out.

If she wanted to come with him at all.

Like he said to Uzume, he would need to build trust with Chiho. That would require time. Plus, if that Higa character was also in this game, it would likely require a Sekirei fight to help her.

But Higa didn't face a fellow Ashikabi, he faced a Devil. One that would be fine with bloodshed.

The Ashikabi never really liked hospitals. Too sterile. Too clean. Too much bad shit happening in one place.

Uzume just kept trusting him. Which was good.

If he could save Chiho, Uzume would be tied to him.

Then again, she never had talked about that. Somehow, Minato had hoped that she would get involved.

There was something growing inside of him. A seed of fondness that was now sprouting into something more.

The Devil shook his head. Now was not the time to fall in love with a taken woman. Then again, there were some ideas that were filling his head. Damn, that Issei boy was rubbing off on him.

He'd see where the pieces would fall. Uzume was now needing help from a dependable source.

"Minato." Uzume could feel his breath tickle her neck.

"You're not walking alone. I'm here."

Her smile came back and she grinned.

"You're not exactly Mephistopheles." The Devil had the same facial expression as Uzume when he heard those words.

"One nickname a person."

Then they stood by the room.

Third floor, fifth room. Save that information for later, Minato. It would be important.

He touched the wall of the room and spoke a small spell. The room would only get the information that he wanted out. Namely, Uzume meeting Chiho and a bit of snuggling and talking.

Chiho was sitting, back to the room, watching the outside. The only source that came through, was an Angel by the name of Uzume.

A Sekirei. Who had winged herself on a weak Ashikabi like herself?

Chiho Hidaka was never one for praying, but she had been hoping that her sweet Uzume found a man or a woman, who would take care of her Uzume when she was gone.

And when she heard the door turn, she expected a nurse for a check-up or a doctor with another complaint.

But that wasn't the case. A mop of brown hair came through and her face lit up.

"Uzume-chan! I didn't expect you tonight!" There was a small giggle on her Sekirei's face.

"Hi, Chiho-chan. I got a surprise for you." Minato had undone the spell and when Uzume nodded, the Devil came through the door.

His first impression of Chiho Hidaka was a mix of several contradictions.

She was wearing pajamas, like most in a hospital would. Brown eyes shined at Minato as he took in the long blonde hair. She looked soft but something said to him that she wasn't easily broken.

The smile went wider when she watched Minato come through the door. The Ashikabi had a soft smile on his own face.

"Who is this guy?"

The Devil waved his hand at her as Chiho watched him come in. Grabbing a chair from the side, Minato sat down next to her.

"Hello, Hidaka-san. I'm Minato Sahashi, a friend of Uzume-chan." The female Ashikabi's head turned from Uzume to Minato with a wide open mouth.

"You're already on a first-name basis with her?"

"We're friends and former roommates," Minato answered for Uzume who sat next to her Ashikabi with a grin.

The first contact was already good, but Minato kept his eyes on Chiho. There would be several ways this could go.

"Former roommates?" Chiho wondered, as her attention shifted to her Sekirei. The brunette nodded as she inched closer. It was clear that Uzume had missed her Ashikabi.

"He lived in the same Inn as me. He is in the process of moving out. His, eh, well benefactor," Minato nodded to that term, "has bought him a big place to live. But right next to us."

Chiho giggled when she heard those words. Then she remembered something that her Sekirei had told her before.

"Wait a second, is the guy you were talking about?"

The Devil looked over at Uzume.

"When you moved in, a while ago, I mentioned you in a previous visit." The tone made it clear that the previous conversation should not be discussed.

"You seem to know a lot of people." Minato scratched his cheek when he heard those words.

"One could say that, yes. I know many."

Chiho crossed her arms and kicked off the blanket as Uzume got the message. Lifting the blonde up to her lap, there were some more snuggles.

Well, it was clear there was a lot of love between them and Minato didn't want to interfere.

"So, what brings you here, Sahashi-san?"

Minato's eyes flickered to Uzume, who nodded to him.

"Well, Uzume-chan did me a few favors. So I asked her if she wanted something in return. She asked that I come along to meet you. I thought it would be a good idea."

"Like a date? That is cute!" Chiho squealed while Uzume didn't know why her cheeks reddened from that declaration.

"It wasn't exactly a date. And I wouldn't like to invade another Ashikabi." Chiho's eyes widened when Minato revealed that bit.

"Jeez, Minato, I thought you'd be a bit more gentle on revealing that tidbit."

"You're an Ashikabi? Then you know?" Suddenly, she got really afraid of the threat that Minato could be.

"That Uzume is an alien, yeah. And she told me that you're her Ashikabi. Don't worry, I'm not an enemy." Chiho relaxed a bit when she heard that, while Minato leaned in a bit closer.

"Uzume-chan wouldn't bring a horrible Ashikabi to meet you, right?"

The female Ashikabi looked up to Uzume, who had the decency to look sheepish. Minato chuckled a bit from that reaction while Chiho turned back to him.

"How many Sekirei does he have? If you are so confident in him?"

The Devil sighed when he leaned his head back.

"She is confident in me because Uzume-chan has seen that I am capable. And if you are wondering, I winged ten Sekirei. All willingly in case you are wondering."

Chiho felt her mouth drop open, she could barely believe that part of Minato.

"You? Ten Sekirei? Are you kidding me?"

Minato sat back and it was like Chiho had offended him.

"You don't think that is possible. If you insist on knowing, Kazehana, Sekirei Number 3; Musubi-chan, Sekirei Number 88; Yume-san, Sekirei Number 8; Akitsu-chan, Sekirei Number 7; Benitsubasa, Sekirei Number 105; Haihane, Sekirei Number 104; Hikari, Sekirei Number 11; Hibiki, Sekirei Number 12; and Matsu, Sekirei Number 2."

Chiho found herself to be even more shocked at the way that Minato revealed this information.

'He's either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid, likely a mix of both. I do hope more of the former.'

"Those are your Sekirei? Wow, ten women. That'll be a handful."

Minato shrugged at that remark.

"It helps that the first, Kazehana, is a good help with that. She and Uzume-chan go back a while. Uzume-chan helped me out with her powers. And honestly, I was kinda curious to see what sort of person winged a woman like Uzume-chan."

The blonde turned to Uzume, who shrugged and ruffled her hair.

"He had some issues with Miya, hence why he moved out. That place is just for the crazy ones. I do dread that she is going to amp up my rent. She'll lose over a dozen tenants. That would be horrible for her income."

There wasn't a hint of sarcasm in those words, and the dread set in for Uzume while she shuddered at that.

Some could say that his proposal was immoral, or with ulterior motives, but neither woman picked that up from the words that Minato spoke.

"If you are that afraid, you could move into my place." Both women were not expecting that news and it was Chiho who recovered first.

"Really? Ten women and you still want my Uzume-chan? What a pervert."

The Devil's eyes flattened and Chiho felt a cold dread coming down while Uzume gulped.

"If you believe me to be that kind of man, I assure you that I am not. That being said, Hidaka-san, I do wonder, why doesn't Uzume live at your place? From what I experienced, Sekirei like to be around their Ashikabi."

Chiho couldn't stop the dread and turned to Uzume.

"Tell him?"

"Tell him."

"I have a deadly disease. It's eating me away. There is nothing that can be done. I have no one. I am an orphan. The hospital is doing its best but the disease is too strong."

Minato cupped her cheek and made Chiho look at him.

"Do you want me to ask a few people for their aid? I know a lot of people and my benefactor, like Uzume-chan put it, can maybe get some help. Outside the usual." There was a strong fire in his eyes, something which made Chiho's heart jump a beat.

"King, are you going to kiss her? That'd be rude."

Chiho didn't know why Uzume called him that while Minato hoped that Chiho would ask about that aid, instead of his name.

"I wouldn't be... that is not... I would never..." Chiho stammered as Minato let her go and he looked at Uzume, before looking back at her.

"Yes or no, Hidaka-san?" The female Ashikabi grinned at him as she touched his arm. Despite the look of it, it was a strong arm. One that had been trained.

"If it's not too much trouble. And please, Chiho is fine."

Minato stood up and then knelt in front of her.

"It'll never be an issue. You're a friend of Uzume-chan, so I hope that will make you one of mine. I'll leave you two for a bit. Uzume-chan, I was not joking about my offer." With that done, the Devil got out of the room.

"See you later, Minato." The male Ashikabi waved at the two and when he was gone, he used a magical circle.

"If you want my advice, move in with him. I won't be around for much longer. He'll take good care of you." Uzume kissed her forehead.

"Sweetie, might I remind you that if you die, I will be going with you." The Sekirei let a breath out that she held in.

"Let's leave the matter of death for another time. What do you think of him?"

Chiho pondered about him.

"Strong. Capable. Warm. Kind. But not weak. That is clear. One would be wrong to mistake his kindness for weakness."

Uzume rolled her eyes.

"Watching too many crime films again?" Chiho smirked back at her.

"There was a documentary about Al Capone a few days ago." From that point onwards, they began to chat. Minato had undone the spell.

The recordings were saved and watched by a pair of eyes behind glasses.

Kakizaki was watching how Uzume and Chiho chatted.

Dumb women who didn't know to whom they belonged.

Higa Izumi had vowed to win the Sekirei plan and as a faithful servant, Kakizaki would make sure of it.

Yet, there was something. He couldn't shake the feeling that there was something inside that room, that had not been recorded.

What could that have been?

They would monitor them closely. Perhaps, teach Uzume that they were the reason that Chiho was still alive.

Scene skip

Minato could have teleported completely back home, but he found that he needed a walk.

First contact with Uzume's Ashikabi, Chiho Hidaka had been good. She clicked well with Minato.

Now, it came to the point of knowing how to help them.

Them, as they were a package deal. He couldn't help one and leave the other behind. He would need to save both of them.

So that was why he wanted to walk for a bit. Clear his head.

He couldn't just storm the hospital and take the girl. That would leave unfortunate implications. And the words of Uzume about Matsu... what did she mean by that?

His thoughts were shaken by his phone beeping.

Whipping out the device, he was overjoyed that he had taken a model that Ajuka had made.

The screen showed him the result of a scan that he did before he entered the room.

[Small particles of magic and aura detected. Longer exposure is required to determine.]

'If she has a [Sacred Gear], it will be hard to determine how many Pieces I'd need. This needs time. And talking with my Flock, who are due for some rewards.'

When he got to the Inn, he opened the door and found the place to be remarkably quiet.

"Hello! Anyone home?"

The landlady came out from the back with a rueful smile on her face.

"Minato, what are you doing here?"

The Devil craned his head a bit to find his (former) landlady looking puzzled at him. It was always a weird feeling when you came back to a place you no longer lived.

"Came back to see my Flock. If that answers you. Where are they?"

Miya's smile was humorous when she heard that.

"They had packed up and Kazehana had them move to the new house. I take it you'll find them there."

The Ashikabi really had to thank his first Sekirei and if he was honest, she would love the reward as much as he would.

"Thanks, Miya. We'll come back often enough. We're not strangers, I can say that much."

The purple-haired lady found that a good saying as she saw him leaving after a bow.

'You'll make something out of yourself, that much I can guarantee.'

Minato's new house had been located right next to the Inn, after all.

Opening the door, it had been done in a blue and black style, much like the mansion that he called his home for a decade, the house of Serafall Leviathan.

The hallway was huge, with stairs leading up and when he looked sideways, there was much to register.

His master had been waiting for this kind of house.

The materials that were used, were from the highest quality marble stone and wood from the Devil Forests.

"What do you think, hun? She did a wonderful job." His head swiveled to see Kazehana coming down with the other women behind her. The Sekirei were all smiles and giggles when they explored the place.

"We installed ourselves in this house after we were done packing." Kusano raced to Minato who lifted her up and gave her a tight hug.

"Had a nice talk with Uzume-chan?"

Looking his Flock over, Minato sighed when he considered the dangers that could be involved.

His strong heart, open mind, and sense of justice made his path clear.

"I'll talk about Uzume-chan later." The Ashikabi collected himself for a bit.

"Ladies, line up." The women followed that order, falling in line via the Piece they had been assigned.

After a flurry of light, and their cheeks heating up from the kissing, Minato walked in front of them.

"I have not been able to say this, but I am proud of you. During the training, our visit to the Underworld, and that party, I have seen stellar behavior. I wish that to continue."

Those compliments were nice to hear, all women admitted that.

"The last few weeks have been taxing on us, so training is postponed this week."

The bunch of cheers and elated joy made him think they would be grateful for that.

"I do think I should also reward you all for this." For nine of the ten Sekirei, their mind went into the gutter.

Minato got quiet for a bit and his eyes rested on Kazehana.

"Kazehana, as my first winged, my [Queen], and my first kiss, you were the one who moved them out. I do think you are better suited for talking about this. I'll remove myself from Kusano for a bit. Let's go for ice cream, Kuu-chan."

The youngest Sekirei was about to rush out the door while Minato just stood back.

From the line, Kazehana walked up to him.

"There are some things that I require from you."

Minato sighed and looked at her. How did such a perfect woman fall in love with him?

"We made an agreement and I'll be damned if I don't order it. I owe this to you. But our restrictions are now gone, patience is running out, and I do think that you will want this chat. Is that an issue?"

Kazehana pressed a searing kiss on his lips and grinned.

"No, hun. I think that is for the best." The other Sekirei looked hungry for more from Minato.

"As you mentioned, patience is running out." He could feel the tension in the air and winked at them all.

"Fight it out between each other, ladies. Just keep my place standing."

And with that, Minato got out the door, racing after Kusano.

Kazehana crossed her arms beneath her impressive bust and her eyes got a stern look.

"Women meeting in the living room now!"

The line, starting with Akitsu and ending with the twins, walked right back in. All of them were ready to listen.

Scene skip

While the hallway and stairs were shows of extreme extravagance, the living rooms were homely and cozy.

The Sekirei were all seated on the cushions while Kazehana stood in front of them. The whiteboard summon was a useful thing. Something that she would thank her Ashikabi for later.

"Okay, ladies, I'll be blunt. Who of you wants to bang our Ashikabi?"

There was a certain amusement in seeing her sister-wives getting embarrassed or red in the face. At least, the majority of them.

Hikari began to stammer, which made her so much cuter, given her usual behavior. Benitsubasa was also bright red and glaring at Kazehana while Haihane had an amused smile on her face.

But none could deny the shy redness on her own face.

Hibiki, however, was a lot calmer than her sister with a dreamy expression on her face.

Matsu was cackling and ready to experiment on her Ashikabi. To a degree that made Kazehana fear for her Ashikabi's sexual health.

The [Rooks] were acting very differently. Yume was just like Hibiki dreaming, but was shaken away from that to explain to Musubi what the context of the word "banging" meant. It wasn't fighting.

Just like Musubi, Akitsu was clueless about the meaning of the word but when she found her Flock, blushing and stammering, the Yuki-Ona made the link between what was asked. Flustered, she ducked her head and squeaked.

"I'll take that as a yes. All of you want to fuck our Ashikabi!"

Yume clapped her hands.

Kazehana acted like the second in command for Minato but between the [Pawns] and the others, Yume stood as acting closer to that for her.

"Kazehana, not that it hasn't entered all of our minds, but there is a time and place for everything. None of us have gone further than kissing our Ashikabi. I believe that all of us need to talk about this personally, how much further we would want to carry our love."

The [Queen] had acted too fast, spoke too soon. But as leader of the Flock, she crossed her arms and pushed up her impressive chest.

"I would like to let you all know that Minato promised to give his virginity to me. I do allow you in his bed, but only after that. Unfortunately, none of you have the patience for that. We'll have to accelerate our plans. But that is my own issue. Now, Yume, would you want to bang our Ashikabi?"

Yume looked over at Kazehana and her mind had been made up.

"Of course, I would. He brought me back to life. Gave me a new chance. I love Minato. So yes."

Kazehana's head swiveled over to Musubi. The Miko Sekirei was ready to burst out.

"What about you, Musubi-chan? Are you ready for that?"

Standing up, she raised a fist.

"Minato-san has taken me in. He brought back Yume." But then she began to fiddle her fingers.

"But I know very little of that sort of stuff. I think that I'd like him to teach me." The older Sekirei laughed at her adorable reaction. Kazehana wished that she could cuddle the adorable [Rook];

Akitsu stood up.

"I want to take that step with our Ashikabi. I'd like to have him."

The Wind Flower couldn't help but admire her honesty.

"That is much like you, Akitsu. What about you, Benitsubasa?"

The redhead sighed and leaned back in the seat.

"I don't know much about this. While I'd be fine with it, I think that I can wait for a bit. Let me decide for myself how long I take. I am not going to be his first. Or his second. Or his third. There is no race and I can take it easy."

Haihane smirked. Finally, the washboard was learning maturity.

"I would be open for fooling around a bit. Let him know my body before I offer it to him."

The weapon user answered before Kazehana could ask her the most important question.

"He'll respect that. I know that for sure. Now, Matsu. I can see you drooling. I think we'll need to prepare our Ashikabi for that."

The brain Sekirei pouted when she heard that her deepest fantasies couldn't be revealed.

"Oh, come on, Kaze-tan. I have so much information for the uninitiated among us."

The eyes of the [Queen] narrowed.

"You lived for most of your life on the Internet. I don't think that we'll need that much filth. So be quiet!"

Matsu sank in her seat and Kazehana looked at the Thunder Twins.

"What about you two?"

Hikari had a carnivorous grin on her face while she licked her lips. Despite her best efforts, Hibiki couldn't hide it either.

"I would be more than willing for him."

"Couldn't have put it better myself, sis."

Kazehana knew enough of that. Six out of ten, with the two that sat out, wanting to take it easier.

"Look, the reason why I am asking now, is because all our restrictions are gone. We are no longer living under Miya's roof, where the mere hint of sexual talk would be punished, our ideas of Devils are now over and before this damned Plan kicks up a notch, I want to have bedded our Ashikabi."

The [Queen] sat down on the table.

"I have a suggestion on what we can do in the coming days but for this, I'll need your cooperation. There is a test I'd like to run and...," Whispers and giggles came through.

It was all too fortunate for Minato that he was out of the house. He would be more terrified than aroused.

Outside, Minato was walking through the city with Kusano on his back. She had found it most comfortable there while they went to get ice cream.

She was rocking herself on his back while Minato just kept walking through the city.

They eventually found a place to get some.

"What are you going to pick, Onii-chan?" The green eyes of the Green Girl shined at him as Minato was broken from his musing.

"I think that I'll take one scoop of mocha and one of chocolate. Or something in that style."

No one said no to ice cream but Minato's taste buds had been spoiled in the last few years. There were few things that Devils did better than indulgence.

"What are you going to pick, Kuu-chan?"

The young Sekirei sat up and began to count

"A scoop of vanilla, a scoop of chocolate, a scoop of strawberry, a scoop of caramel, one scoop of..."

"Two scoops, Kusano. You still need to get dinner and gorging yourself on ice is not good for you!"

It was like Minato had declared the most egregious demand from Kusano and like every child of her age, she began to wriggle.

"Onii-chan, that's not what I want! I want all those flavors! Come on, Onii-chan! Onii-chan, I want that many! I can eat that much! Kusano knows that!"

Lifting her from his shoulders, there was the stern look that Kusano had seen so many times when Minato had to be stern around the older women.

"Two scoops. Be quiet or you'll go back home."

The [Bishop] kept her mouth shut and pouted the entire trip to the place.

Minato began to think if it had been such a good idea that he took in Kusano.

Then again, things were working out between the others.

And he did promise her a treat.

So he knelt to her level.

"If you promise to behave and you promise that you can finish your dinner tonight, you'll get four scoops. Only for today, okay?"

The mood of Kusano lit up like he had promised her heaven on earth.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, Onii-chan."

The hug was hard for her age but Minato smirked.

"Don't shout too much yet. You'll have to keep your promise."

Scene skip

True to her word, Kusano did manage to finish the ice that Minato had promised her. And she did manage to finish her dinner although Minato suspected that she had gotten a smaller portion than usual.

He was pleasantly surprised that the girls had also started cooking.

Musubi had made rice curry and it showed that she loved making that meal.

With ten women, it shouldn't come as a surprise that some were able to cook. From the looks of it, he began to think.

Kusano was out as a child, and Kazehana didn't seem like the type either.

Matsu would be too focused on the nutritional values of the food which would make it disgusting.

He wouldn't let her close unless she was monitored by at least three of her sister-wives.

Hikari was not too enthused about domestic activities but Minato thought that he could teach the twins about cooking nonetheless.

Akitsu was a woman who he believed, knew how to better herself as well.

He heard what Yume had been telling him and that she helped Musubi out. Plus, her own repertoire of cooking was a lot more extensive. So he would be fine with that.

Benitsubasa was pouting and eating. Minato didn't even ask what was going on with her as she didn't want to talk about it. Luckily, he had Haihane's wink who made it clear that he didn't have to worry about it.

Something that made him worried was the whisper in his ear of Kazehana.

"Don't eat too much, hun, and take a nice long bath. I'll need time to prepare."

Of course, he had to wait a good while until he could take a bath. The women were going first in the giant bath that had been installed.

It was close to what Minato had seen in the house of Serafall. They were clearly inspired by human beings who had come over to the Devils and had found a way of life in those places.

From the sounds that his women made, they approved of giant baths where they would take their time and relax.

Plus, with the help of the older women, the younger ones could find their new drive in it.

Minato also checked the rooms in his new house. There was one giant bed, resembling the one that he had in his guest room during his stay at the Gremory's house.

For some reason, Serafall had also prepared sixteen bedrooms, on several floors around the house.

If it came down to it, the women could sleep in their own bedroom. Matsu had hers already outfitted with her screens, monitors, and other electronic equipment. Minato made the mental note that he would give her some Devil stuff.

It was on par with the best systems that humanity had. He would know. He helped Ajuka Beelzebub design the materials.

Minato just walked over to the place and found that several women had shared bedrooms. Musubi's room had an extra bed for Yume and the Thunder Twins also shared.

Minato began to think about what would happen when he had children.

Because he knew well enough what would be expected from him.

Heiresses had the duty to give their families babies but young men were expected to make sure the women they had, were also having children.

The Ashikabi would do that when he had settled down, his blood had cooled and his duty carried out, he would produce offspring.

He remembered the words of Kazehana and didn't stay in his room but just went to the living room. Laying on the couch, he began to ponder on what else the night would bring.

Kazehana's tone made him excited. There was something planned tonight.

Scene skip

Kazehana couldn't believe how much effort it would take to get Kusano to sit still when they washed her. She had to enlist the help of Benitsubasa, Hibiki, and Matsu to make sure that the little girl sat still.

"Kuu-chan, come on. Just a bit!"

"No. I want to get in the water!"

She tried to shake away but found that impossible as both Benitsubasa and Hibiki held her arms to the side.

"Matsu, now would be good." The Brain Sekirei dumped a load of water over the Green Girl who shivered from the cold.

"Kya, cold. Ma-nee-chan! Meanie!" Kusano practically cannonballed in the hot water while Kazehana sighed at the show.

"Thank you, ladies. Now, who wants to get washed by me?"

Benitsubasa pretty much zipped away and sat back while she took care of her own soaping up.

Haihane chuckled as she was also washing her body. It proved to be highly amusing to see so much boob on display.

Her best friend really was unlucky to not be blessed in the chesticle department.

Maybe, Minato could do something about that. Magic could do lots of nifty things.

Aside from Kusano's washing, Yume and Musubi were also helping each other out. The oldest [Rook] was taking care of the long hair of Musubi as the younger girl enjoyed the ministrations.

There was some consensual groping. They were very close after all.

Plus, they weren't the only ones who were playing around. Hikari and Hibiki were sitting, opposite each other.

Soaps and shampoo were mixed between the other and both clearly reveled in the ministrations from the other.

It was fun with Rias and the others, but now, they could fully enjoy each other.

Kazehana let Matsu play around with her body as she returned the favor. Akitsu had gotten a portion of herself where the cold didn't bother her. She could later join in the warm water.

"Oh, I think that we'll need more experimenting. Let's just go to my...,

The glare from Kazehana made Matsu shiver with fear and delight.

"I need to see Minato tonight. You'll get your turn, little minx." When they were all seated in the bath, Benitsubasa was gnashing her teeth into powder. Asides from herself and Kusano, all had tits that floated in the water.

Kusano was floating around and swimming. While that would be seen as bad manners, none of the Sekirei had it in their heart, or the energy, to stop her.

"Ah, this feels nice." Kazehana stretched out, showing off her impressive rack.

"Bigger than Miya's bath, that's for sure," Matsu cackled.

"Lots more people can fit in. It's awesome." Musubi leaned back against the railing.

"We can all take a nice bath in this." Yume had pulled closer to Musubi.

"It's indeed enjoyable," Akitsu smirked when she found her own chest floating.

"What if we ask our Ashikabi to join us in this?" Hikari proposed as she was thinking much the same.

"Yeah, that would be a treat." Hibiki was next to talk.

"Like I would allow that." Benitsubasa sprung up.

"Talk for yourself, washboard. Most of us would be in favor," Haihane shot back, and before it could get even worse, the [Queen] had clapped in her hands.

"That's enough, ladies. We don't need him to repair the bath and the building. Besides, he's going to see some of us naked."

Musubi had gotten Kusano in her lap and covered her ears. The subject was not suited for young ears.

Inside the room, Minato had been reading through a book. It had some good tips on how to handle the women around him.

Issei might be interested in this as the women flocked around him. Eventually, fatigue caught up to him, and the comfortable chair did even more wonders on him. Before long, Minato lay asleep in the chair.

Small touches on his face made him stumble back to life.

"Onii-chan, onii-chan, wake up." The Ashikabi found his head rolling back.

"Eh, Kuu-chan. What is?"

The blonde girl was getting him back to life when he saw her face fill his view.

Like a bear, he stretched out and the yawn was even more. The Green Girl giggled for a bit before the arms clasped around her.

Her laughs grew even wilder as he began to tickle her while he enjoyed himself with her. It worked out the sleepy mood that he had.

"What's up, Kuu-chan?"

He admired the orange pajamas they had bought for her. It was clear that the young girl was going to bed now.

"I decided to come get you. Bath is free. The Onee-chan's are not nice. I have to sleep in Ma-chan's room."

Minato wondered who else wasn't in his bed tonight. It was made clear that he would get laid tonight. When he began to think about it, the only time that he got sexual relief was that sloppy blowjob that he got from Kazehana.

His balls were full and in desperate need of draining.

Like Kazehana instructed, he took a nice, long bath. Soaking in the hot water, Minato's head began to think about the recent events. They had turned well but something nagged at him.

The fight between Riser and Issei would have implications. For him, as their trainer as well.

Not that those would be dangerous, but they could get extremely uncomfortable. He was only wondering about how much those guys could do to a Devil like him.

The Ashikabi hoped that he wouldn't fall asleep in the bath.

It wouldn't be good for that.

Before he could continue, he heard a door open and just waited and see what would happen.

He felt two soft hands clasp around his eyes and a soft, demure giggle.

The large breasts of Kazehana were pressed against the back of his head and a part of him wanted to be smothered in those tits.

"Hey there, Kazehana."

The Wind Flower pouted as she kept her hands up.

"How did you know that it was me?"

Minato chuckled when he tried to break free but found that Kazehana kept her hands in place.

"You forget that I have been doing this for a while. Anyway, any reason why you're blocking my visage?"

It became clear that Kazehana was going to giggle.

"A few. Minato, I'd like you to keep your eyes closed. But for good measure, I have gotten a blindfold. You trust me to keep you safe?"

The Ashikabi got still for a few seconds before he opened his mouth.

"Don't betray it and you'll keep it." That was good enough for Kazehana who wrapped the blindfold around his eyes.

It didn't take long before she helped him out of the bath.

Whatever she had planned, it was clear that they would not fuck in the bath. Gently, she dried Minato off from the bath and even helped him into a bathrobe so he wouldn't have to walk around the hallway naked.

Kusano did not need to see him naked at this stage. It would take ten years before the idea of doing anything aside from kissing would be acceptable.

And why would one need to do something immoral, if one had nine others to whom the act was not so immoral?

Kazehana guided him through the door and somewhere, he longed for the hand of Kazehana around his own but was let go.

"Just a second, hun. Keep it on for just a bit." Minato just waited and listened to the sounds of the room.

Kazehana and he weren't alone, he could hear at least two more breaths aside from her and himself.

"Okay, take it off, Minato." The Ashikabi obeyed the order and his mouth fell open to see Musubi, Yume, and Akitsu, kneeling on the bed, completely naked.

Two of the three were blushing while Musubi was sitting with a happy expression. Like she was not embarrassed by being completely naked.

Aktisu was her own beauty, a traditional one with her breasts being hidden by her arms as she presented herself. He could see how soft, and yet strong, her body was.

Yume was trying her best to show more but found it too embarrassing. Her body was more of a muscular type. while her long legs took a lot of attention.

Musubi had no sense of shame, so she sat up and gave Minato the best view. He gulped while his cock even went harder. She had the second nicest rack, next to Kazehana and it was clear that she was proud of them.

It took a few moments before Minato's brain connected to his mouth and his eyes shifted to Kazehana who had taken the liberty to take off her own clothes.

"Kazehana, what the? Musubi-chan, Yume-san, Akitsu-chan? Can someone explain to me what is going on?"

The Wind Flower rolled her eyes, walked over to Minato, and undid his robes. His dick sprung out, at full attention from the beautiful sight.

"You have four, beautiful, naked women in front of you, and the only thing you ask is what is going on? Really, hun?"

Minato grinned as he grabbed Kazehana in an embrace. Their lips smashed together while they kissed and she could feel how his arms were wrapped around her waist to grope her ass, giving it a few appreciative squeezes.

"I'm not an idiot, Kazehana." The Ashikabi took a few minutes to collect his words. Scooping her up, he carried her like a princess to the bed and put her down, gently, next to Akitsu. Sitting between the four women naked, Minato didn't feel a hint of shame either.

"You all had a conversation with each other when I took Kusano out for ice cream." The interruption broke the tension in the room.

"Aw, I wanted to have ice cream as well." Musubi's adorably childish pout caused the other four in the room to break and laugh as well.

Kazehana tried her best to keep it under wraps, while Yume and Akitsu giggled. Minato chuckled as well a few times.

"What was agreed upon during that conversation?" Minato didn't miss a beat as he asked that from the ladies.

"As we are no longer under Miya's roof, our restrictions around sexual intercourse and the like are now gone. Given the fact that the patience of my sister-wives is running thin, we have come to the collective agreement that the ladies are now free to explore a more carnal relationship with our Ashikabi."

Only Kazehana could take a talk about debauchery, and make it seem like a royal decree.

Minato found another laugh and then turned to the three ladies by his side.

"You are all okay with that? Akitsu-san?"

The Yuki-Ona didn't trust her voice but just nodded. Her blush could light up the sky as she kept looking over the Ashikabi.

"Musubi-chan? Yume-san?"

Yume spoke for her sister, who kept sneaking glances as well.

"I believe it has been long enough. We have sworn our lives to you, hence why I believe it would be well that we start with the consent of your first Winged and our superior."

Musubi raised her fist.

"Yeah, and I would like to know what is so fun about this. But I also feel tingles."

Minato then looked over to Kazehana who sighed.

"Hun, I know your views on the idea of having sex in a more romantic setting, believe me, I do. But your Flock grows impatient and I trust those three a lot more in regards to not taking you before me. So do you accept?"

It would be a shame and he would never let his women feel that disregarded.

"If you are all in agreement, good." Minato looked over to the three and presented himself with the raging hardon.

"As Musubi-chan and Yume-san were my second and third winged, I believe that it's only fair they go first."

The bed was big enough for sixteen (or more) as that would be the number that Minato would eventually reincarnate.

Kazehana got the message. Dragging along Akitsu, the [Bishop] pouted as she was left out while the other two got their first time with the Ashikabi.

"So just a question, ladies. You know what you should do?"

Minato sat in front of them while they knelt in front of his dick. The two women gulped as they could see veins protruding, and it was big enough to make them feel fear.

"Kazehana-san told us. We will be fine." Minato watched as they began to lick and suck. They worked well together as they switched up. When one took in the head, the other began to lick on the lower part.

There was a powerful groan from him as it signaled that they were doing well. Minato could feel how well they worked. It wasn't as expertly as Kazehana but they made up for that on teamwork. It was like they didn't even have to talk but just work.

"Oh, fuck. You two." Still, he had to find something else to do while they found ways to make this even better.

"Stop for a bit." They halted, eyes wide in fear that they had done something wrong.

"You're doing well but I find myself doing nothing while I can have more fun. Therefore." He grabbed Musubi so she laid on his body, with his head buried right up against her pussy.

"Minato-san?!"

The Ashikabi was muffled by the talking.

"Right now, I'm your Ashikabi. I'd be a shitty Ashikabi if I don't repay the favor. Plus, I have a request. Musubi-chan, wrap your tits around my dick but leave enough for Yume-san to suck on."

She didn't have much else to say as Minato dug right into the girl. He could smell the soap on her body and the relief that she smelled so good.

His tongue began to drag along her slit as he gently ate her out, while his hands were kept on her ass.

Musubi didn't realize that as she felt fireworks going off in her head as there was something that she had never thought about.

Good fights, good meals, and good sleep. That was all that got her going. But now, with fireworks going off in her head and the mouth that drooled from being eaten out, she had found a fourth thing that would make her get up in the morning.

Now, she had a fourth reason. One that would prove to be much more encouraging to do.

"Ah, Minato-san, that is... Oh, this feels... Oh, yes!" The girl moaned with happy abandon while Minato sucked and licked out that came his way. It was something new to taste with Musubi as he played around with her.

The appreciative squeezes on her ass were another new thing she discovered.

Given her younger sister's newfound descent into lust, it came down to Yume to follow up with their Ashikabi's request.

The Sekirei of Fate found that Minato was impressive. Even with the sizeable bust of Musubi wrapped around his dick, she found herself with the head to play with. Licking and sucking him off while her hands made sure that Musubi's tits would hit all the right spots to get Minato off.

From the groans and shakes that he was making, it was clear enough that he was enjoying this.

And Musubi who wanted to arch her back, who wanted to get even more from Minato found herself unable to move.

"Yume-sama, please!" The Miko Sekirei wanted to get more from him but her sister shook her head.

"You heard him, Musubi-chan. Let's get him off first." Her words left little room for argument so when two pairs of hands were pressed against the breasts which made Minato gasp even more.

The pressure was incredible and they worked like a well-oiled team.

If his upper head could think about it, it would comment on the fact of all their training but found that blood was lacking. It all went to his dick and that currently was throbbing like crazy.

"Minato-san! Your, well, dick! It seems so hard. It's throbbing!"

Of course, Musubi would voice it like that, as Yume's mouth was occupied. The Ashikabi gave a few rough thrusts, which at another point would have impressed all women present.

But when his release came, hard and shocking, it showed that Yume and Musubi were busier on catching all that.

His first few bursts of semen landed in Yume's mouth who couldn't handle the load that was coming through.

Acting on pure instinct, Musubi took over as Yume's cough filled the room. Still, the Sekirei of Fate kept her hand before her mouth and made sure that none of his semen fell out of the mouth.

Dutifully, she swallowed it all while Musubi, who still had her tits around his dick, drank up the rest. Swallowing all the release that Minato had left over, she felt his body tense and then relax. For the most part.

His tongue went even further and his hands slipped away from her ass as they began to play with her pussy.

It proved not too difficult for his fingers to slide into her pussy as Musubi was as wet as a tropical rainforest.

In and out, he had made her work up like crazy. With Yume gone, she could arch her back as Minato ate her out even more, driving her crazier.

The Ashikabi grinned when her moans reached a higher peak.

"Oh, Minato-san! Please! I want!"

If he was a bit more playful, he would have made her beg for it, but dirty talking was not something that Musubi had learned. Plus, she had taken care of his needs so he decided to finish it.

When his thumbs gently reached the clitoris, Musubi came undone and painted his face, completely, with her own release.

She went slack and fell on top of his body. Both had to catch their breath after that rough bout. Minato didn't have the slightest intent of moving his body. So it came down to Musubi who got up and put herself next to her Ashikabi.

"How did I do?" Musubi's eyes shined at him and Minato found that she had done well.

"Wonderful. Nice job for the first time." The kiss was mixed with his own salty taste but he didn't care as she could feel her body getting used to him.

His eyes went over to Yume who stood by the end of the bed. Scooting a bit over, Minato motioned her to get closer.

"I'm not getting up, Yume. Use your knees to support yourself."

Yume had a brief second of wondering but just followed his instructions. Her pussy angled right on top of his face as she gently squatted down.

Of course, she had seen what Minato had done to Musubi and had found it to be one awesome show.

But to actually be the woman who would get that, she had reservations.

Which went out the window, the second that Minato began to work her over. Musubi watched how Minato began to carry out his mission to get Yume off.

Yume now understood why Musubi wanted to arch her back and let Minato do all those nice things. Yet, she found that it was nearly impossible to make even the slightest moves. Her hands dug into his hair while Minato sucked even more and just found the right spots to hit her.

It could be because she had also missed her own actions that she found herself getting more aroused, and so she ground herself into Minato's face. Not that he disliked that. There wasn't another spot that he rather would be in.

Crushed by an alien, Minato continued to eat her out. Musubi watched in awe to see how Yume had gotten so worked up from the ministrations.

But she understood. After all, she had experienced the same actions and there was an amazement in her eyes while Yume shouted indescribable words.

They were so much taken in by their own pleasure that they had forgotten they had an audience.

Kazehana had Akitsu in her lap and restrained with all she could, preventing her from jumping in and joining the three.

But there was no chance of that happening.

Kazehana had also seized the opportunity to teach her younger Flock Sister about the wonders of having multiple wives.

The Wind Flower was not dumb. The roughest estimate was that Minato would have 16 Peerage Members (and that wasn't counting others who would join his harem, regardless of that), and with only one male, there were those who would get horny while he was otherwise occupied.

Hence, if they started this now, sex between harem members would become normal, and they would make do with that.

It would take time though, that was for sure.

But given how much Akitsu liked the action between her legs, that was one less member to worry about.

The [Rooks] wouldn't be an issue either, otherwise, they wouldn't have joined in together.

The Thunder Twins were also sisters, so Kazehana would make that work.

Matsu was an unapologetic lech, so she doubted that she would protest.

That was five of the nine he would bed, six if she included herself. With Akitsu, now getting even more aroused, that would be seven.

Yeah, she had her work cut out for her. But it would prove to be for the best.

She saw how Minato had learned from the times they had some fun and the Ashikabi was quickly picking up tricks on how to get Yume to her peak.

The Sekirei of Fate felt even more of her head twirling and she was begging.

"Minato, for fuck sake. End this! I swear to you!" The rest of the sentence was lost as Minato got her off in ways that she had never guessed before.

"Oh, yes! Finally, oh, fuck yes!"

The scream echoed and Kazehana knew she had done good, having ensured the room was soundproof.

"Ah, fuck! Minato!"

There was a collapse and Minato would have been in a bit of an uncomfortable spot if Musubi hadn't veered up and grabbed the other woman.

Yume was catching her breath and her blush was getting even hotter.

It was freaking adorable if Minato had to guess.

"Now, ladies! You had your fun. But I think it's nothing more than fair if someone else got her turn."

Three heads turned to see Akitsu who was panting, with her chest heaving. Her bust made wonderful moves.

"Turnabout is fair play."

Both women had fairness ingrained in their systems, so they got up from their spot and laid at another part.

The bed was big enough so finding room wasn't an issue. They didn't lay too far from Minato though as they closed their eyes and drifted off to blissful sleep.

Minato would pull them closer afterward but now, he would let Akitsu have her fun.

When Kazehana let the [Bishop] go, she pretty much flung herself over to Minato. Another kiss followed up as their wings opened and Minato's devil wings mixed with her own, icy ones.

She could feel warmth but also a storm that made her own. Gently, the mix of their magic and powers subsided.

When they let go, Minato looked her in the eyes.

"Are you sure about this?"

Akitsu grinned and nodded to him.

"Yes, and I watched them. I have an idea."

Her body was a lot more honest or, at least, more open than she was. The blush and her eyes gave much more away than her final expression.

"I'll listen. Tell me what you'd like to do."

Minato had found that she was quite impressionable, and she put herself in the same position as Musubi.

Not that he minded it. It was also early bedroom days for him. They would have eons of time to figure out how they would make this whole event a wonderful experience.

He'd be more than happy to test all that out. When Akitsu wrapped her incredibly soft chest around his dick and she slowly began to suck, Minato followed up with his own actions.

Akitsu was a bit cooler than Musubi or Yume. but aside from that, he could feel how she was trying to swallow as much up.

His head popped out from underneath her gorgeous and shapely ass.

"Don't struggle too much. You can learn but we don't need you to suffer for it."

It was somewhat of a relief to hear, but Akitsu would not be known to disappoint her Ashikabi. So she allowed more and more of her throat to be wrapped around his cock.

He groaned when there was even more pressure on his dick.

But with his first load out, he would not just focus on his own pleasure. So it came down to him to give even more pleasure.

Akitsu's sounds, connected through his dick, made for even better vibrations. So he let Akitsu suck as much as she thought she could handle, while her breasts, soft and well-formed as they were, were still wrapped around his cock.

Minato definitely enjoyed that.

Akitsu knew that he was doing his best, so she did hers. The sucking and licking were incredible and when she picked up from Minato to use her tongue, she did the same.

They had an audience but both were so taken up in the whole thing that they pretty much ignored that same audience.

Not that Kazehana minded as she watched with a certain hint of wonder and delight how Minato was getting Akitsu off from this while he played around.

The Yuki Ona began to moan even louder from Minato spreading her lower lips as she pushed her hips down even further.

From there, it took a few seconds to find a comfortable rhythm as both sucked each other off while Minato groaned when she did even more than just that.

Their bodies were shaking and moving, Akitsu knew that she was close to her peak, her body letting her know that.

What she didn't expect was that Minato went over the edge before her. There was a surprised moan as he unloaded in her mouth.

What surprised her even more, was Minato adding two more fingers inside of her pussy while his other hand teased her clitoris.

With sperm drooling down from her mouth, she sat up and screamed his name out.

"MINATO!"

If Minato could see her, he would be taken aback by how beautiful she was, as she sat up, with moonlight twinkling down on her.

Then she fell down on top of him, already off in an orgasm-induced sleep. Minato tried to wriggle his way out from underneath her but found that two helpful hands from Kazehana lifted the [Bishop] off of him.

"Thank you, Kazehana."

The woman smiled back at him and placed Akitsu down next to Yume and Musubi.

"Minato."

With a grin and a roll of his eyes, he laid back down but Kazehana shook her head.

"I'd like something else, love. I can barely hold back."

That something else was Kazehana lying on the pillows while Minato ate her out. It wasn't exactly a big issue as he was perfectly open to doing it like this.

With his hands playing on those breasts, he was punching the right buttons to make her even quiver. Of course, she was completely worked up from seeing her lover do what he did with the other Sekirei.

In her mind, love was love and that was all too open for her.

Not that she would ever let another man do what Minato did to her.

Her hands dug into his hair while her mind was getting blown away by the ministrations that Minato handled. Drool leaked out and she could feel even more build up.

Minato didn't doubt if she was playing with herself. Of course, she would. It was why she was getting so close already.

Not that he minded it as her legs were wrapped around his neck and the fact that he was so sturdy that he could withstand everything that she threw his way.

He knew that she could break his neck if he was just a human.

But those further thoughts were out as his hands teased those oversized breasts of hers. In another woman, they would have been misplaced. But for Kazehana, they were just the right fit.

Another loud scream echoed over the place and her body becoming slack was the indication that Kazehana had already reached her own peak.

Letting him go from his comfortable prison, Kazehana looked up at him, with a certain hunger in her eyes.

The Ashikabi sat up and watched at her, with a hint of worry and apprehension.

"Kazehana?"

The fact that he sported a raging boner was indication enough that his body could continue.

Before the [Queen] answered, she had tackled her lover to the bed.

"More."

There was a moan of need in her voice.

"I can't exactly do much like this." Of course, he was acutely aware that her pussy was pressing on his dick and that she was lubing him up.

"Oh, honey. You can. And you know what I want." Kazehana just smirked and grabbed his dick and began to press.

It only came down to his own body grabbing her up and preventing her from dropping down.

"Kazehana?" Her name was a warning and a question at the same time.

"I feel it throbbing. I can't handle it. I want this. Please." It wasn't fitting that a woman like her would have to beg her lover to fuck her.

To claim her. To make love to her. To give him her everything.

"What about my choice?"

Kazehana sighed when she looked at him.

"You clearly look like you want this. So is it so bad that I want the same?"

The Ashikabi couldn't fault her for thinking that. Plus, it would have been just fine to fuck her like this now.

"You know, I was hoping for more. Like a date and some other stuff. And some reservations. Not much like this."

Letting go of his dick, she leaned down and pecked him on the cheek.

"Love, I get that. But that is your idea of love. Now, I need my bodily needs attended to. Are you really going to say no, now? Please?"

The Ashikabi pondered on that for a second.

"Alright, but." Kazehana's relief made it impossible to avoid the attack as Minato flipped her over. Laying on her back, Minato had moved her up to the pillows.

His hands were teasing all sides of her body but rested on her breasts as he played around with those for a bit.

"Ara, ara, Minato."

The eyes of the Ashikabi showed exactly what it meant to be in bed.

"If you want this, I am open to it. But like this. Alright?"

Kazehana sighed as she knew that it was most likely coming from the fact that Minato was a [King] as well and he could never let his subjects rule over him.

If she hadn't seen him in action, she would have protested. Demanded that she'd be the one to teach him.

But the Sekirei also knew that Minato was a Devil. Not a Human.

So she would let him take this one.

There were no reasons for complaints. She got what she wanted, maybe even in the way she wanted it.

So when he leaned in over her, his dick was pocking at her entrance. There was an audible gulp. She wasn't unfamiliar with him or his size.

Her tits and mouth both had known his dick but now, it was time for him to go in her pussy. To be finally claimed.

"Last chance to rethink." Grabbing him by the hair, she pressed one hungry but fiery kiss on his lips. Then she growled in his ear.

"If you don't fuck me, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life." It was best that he kept his mouth shut.

Gently, he inched his way into her pussy, her walls already clinging to him. The Ashikabi could feel how she gasped for breath when he got into her.

"Kazehana, this is your first time, right?" The Sekirei looked up to him. An unfamiliar blush had made its way onto her face.

"Despite how I act, yes. Too dangerous to get winged. Does it reflect?"

Minato shook his head and kissed her again.

"I figured it out."

"I mean, a race bound by a kiss. I think I got it." Kazehana looked up at her lover. She could admire the muscles, the body, the hotness.

He wasn't the biggest, buffest man she had ever seen but there was no use in denying the power he had.

"This is your first time as well, right?"

The Ashikabi nodded to her question.

"You have not forgotten what Serafall-sama told you. So gently, okay?"

Kazehana let Minato edge his way into her. Kisses and gasps were what followed as there was more that she could feel.

She had always imagined it would hurt.

Oh, it did. But less than what she believed. It could have something to do with the fact that hormones were driving her crazy or the fact that he took his sweet time.

There was also the feeling of incredible fullness. Her body was accepting and molding itself around his dick.

Minato was also enjoying the feeling of her pussy, slowly constricting itself around his dick. She felt good. So good.

But when his hips reached hers, he stayed like that. Just for a bit to let her feel that dick. The pulses, the stretching.

He was also holding onto himself, his brain not being able to go higher besides, warm, tight, and wet.

"You just have to say it. Until then, I'm not doing anything," Minato told Kazehana as she was gasping for air while growing used to him.

His hands were not sitting still, playing with her tits while their lips were on each other.

"Be gentle."

Kazehana asked and Minato followed up on that.

Slowly but surely, he began to pump his hips. It was like his body was telling him what to do.

It was for the best that he listened to his instincts and let them carry him. His own body felt so good around hers. It was like her softness was mixing with his hard body.

Kazehana could feel not only how her body was getting more used to him, but how much he was holding himself back from cumming.

She just leaned back and let those hips follow up. She was fine. She could do it.

When he moved out, she rolled back, only to meet him. In and out, the two worked up a rhythm while kisses and touches peppered the other. They had seen each other naked and had done everything already.

There would be more. That was a given.

"Ah, Minato."

Kazehana groaned as he hovered over her.

"Please. I need you to."

When he found the right spot, he gently hit it which made her gasp and it made her even more desperate.

"Oh, just for a bit. Just hold on." A few more touches and pressure on the right spot. Before long, Kazehana could feel her release coming.

"Minato, please. I can feel it! Just end it. Please!"

The Ashikabi collapsed right on top of her after a loud groan came from within him.

"Oh, fuck. Cumming!" It was rough and fast, without even him knowing that he was getting to his peak.

"Right there, oh yes! Yes! Yes!" Kazehana let her own release wash over them. Their juices mixed, at least, what was staying inside of her.

Then Minato rolled out from her heat and rolled on his back while dragging her along. Her breasts were resting on his chest while another kiss came through.

They stayed like that, making out for a bit while Minato's tongue explored Kazehana's mouth.

"That was awesome," Kazehana purred in his ear while she could feel her throbbing die down.

"I am inclined to agree." Minato wrapped his arm around her waist while his right hand gently felt what he did between her legs. The left cupped her breasts as he played with them.

"You know, if I wasn't so tired, I'd go for another round. Or five." Kazehana blanched when she heard that much.

"I think I can't handle that, dear." Getting up closer to him, she leaned in for an additional kiss

"But I'd be up for the challenge. Would be fun." Kazehana remarked.

"We'll have to talk with the others about how to proceed. But right now, I'd like to sleep. You?"

Kazehana purred on that.

"Prepare yourself, darling. Now, there is nothing stopping them."
