Chapter 56: Renewed Hope (Part 15)

"You…truly believe you may heal my afflictions, Alexander-sama?"

"As unlikely as it may seem, method is pretty convoluted, I'll admit, but I've been assured it will work. I mean, it will work as long as I don't muck it up."

He grimaced at how not incredible or inspiring those words were.

"Sorry, still getting used to the idea of being a cheerleader."

"I will happily undergo such a process, Alexander-sama."

"Indeed. If it will help Amagi, I…will offer all that I can."

The Aloadae was left blinking at the immediate and completely certain response both foxes offered as they sat in a secluded bunk room of the Bakunawa, expressions attentive and resolute as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"Do you maybe want to give it a little more thought than that? This is a pretty big deal, I may remind you."

Amagi bowed from where she sat seiza style on the mattress, gracefully responding, "You have done more than could have ever been expected for us, Alexander-sama. Even now you continue the trend. What else can we do to honor that effort other than accept it?"

Shinano merely nodded along with Amagi's words, Alexander briefly wondering if he should make it clear this was her very being he was attempting to alter…and gave it up as a bad job, figuring that the pair were so obsessed with paying back their assumed debt that he could ask them to fight a Siren armada alone and they would happily march to war.

"Well, if you're certain about it."

Keeping the sigh where it belonged he ran through a final analysis of the Bakunawa's sensors, finding everything in working order while a quick mental check with Enterprise and Belfast - the maid still sulking which was genuinely beginning to unnerve him - confirming that they were all just running routine operations and other passive activities as they waited for their next set of orders.

"Okay, let's get started."

Passing off two small tumblers to the foxes he jokingly clinked them against his own, all three of them downing a slightly metallic tasting medicine that - according to TB - was enough to put them down for a few hours even with enhanced metabolisms, long enough for the operation to conclude one way or another.

…Although Alexander found himself wishing that he had more time to enjoy the sensation of both Sakura laying down on either side of him, busty forms pressing into his own as a brief surge of numbness overtook his mind-

-and he blinked, finding himself back in the same room he'd met Shinano in the first time, a peaceful venue of Sakuran design while an open wall showed off the impressive sight of the Sacred Sakura.

"It's actually quite impressive how you managed to make this happen so quickly. Feels like I just fell asleep."

"All I did was think of both you and Amagi and instinct took care of the rest, Alexander-sama."

Gazing down at his body in curiosity he found that he was garbed in a Sakura set of robes - kimono or something along those lines - sized for his body, resisting the urge to roll his eyes as they had stylized lines of gold on the midnight fabric more than reminiscent of flames.

Instead he turned to Amagi, asking, "Ready to start?"

"Yes, Alexander-sama."

Deciding that there wasn't much more to be said he sat before the battleship, Shinano flanking them as the Aloadae closed his eyes and focused, trying not to think too deeply about the fact that he was basically willing things into existence in whatever weird dream world or terrain they currently occupied.

"Not the strangest thing I've done thus far, depressingly enough."

Instead he focused on bringing forth the cube shards embedded in his back, remembering the many times they had either heated, cooled, been shifted about or any other number of things as with only a slight bit of surprise he found a gleaming chunk within his upright palm, glinting softly in the sunlight.

"Huh. Well that was-"

He cut himself off as he found Amagi holding a perfectly symmetrical cube in her hand, having manifested it with little difficulty while he'd no doubt sported a constipated expression all the while.

"Never mind. Unimpressive."

"No need to be so down on yourself, Alexander-sama. A Wisdom Cube is the basis for our entire existence, even outside of this unusual terrain we can feel and resonate with it as easily as breathing."

"Well that lessens the blow. Either way, here we go."

He hesitantly accepted Amagi's handing over of her Wisdom Cube - Christ did it feel weird to hold the literal soul of a person in his hand - and did as TB instructed, holding his shard and the Cube close, waiting for that tell tale 'pull' that implied the AI could begin the process of rebuilding Amagi to how she should have initially manifested…and only felt the slightest traces of resonance, like two weak magnets occasionally twitching against the other.

"This isn't right, is it?"

"No, master. It isn't."

Jerking suddenly as TB appeared beside him in the flesh Alexander had to hold back yet another sigh as Amagi and Shinano seemed completely at ease with the AI's sudden manifestation, merely waiting patiently for whatever news they had to offer.

"Okay, then what's the matter?"

"The connection isn't sufficiently close or intimate enough to properly establish a workable bridge. The Wisdom Cube creates a very strong seal around the ego, working past it is no small matter."

Amagi's tails wilted slightly, tone disappointed as she murmured, "Ah…Perhaps it was-"

"There is…well there is a way to help overcome that barrier."

The AI began awkwardly shifting as Amagi and Shinano looked to her in interest, Curtis knowing full well what she was about to suggest and bracing himself for it.

"Physical intimacy is a useful method for creating deeper bonds, the joining of bodies also leading to the joining of minds."

The words were hesitant and shy from the normally cool and collected machine, Alexander mentally despairing at the departure of normality as he looked to Amagi and Shinano, both Sakura seemingly unfazed by the sudden suggestion.

Hell, their tails were actually waving, Amagi merely replying, "Then that is what we shall do."

"Wait. We?"

Shinano demurely nodded - something at odds with the way her fox appendages twitched with anticipation - as she elaborated with, "As the one responsible for this shared space I should also draw closer, should I not?"

"We will ensure that I am not crippled and made helpless, Alexander-sama…and you have earned our attentions many times over."

Both foxes began to crawl towards him with blatantly seductive expressions even as their pale skin pinked and flushed with shyness, TB quickly vacating the 'room' as Curtis wondered if he should try to exercise some restraint and manners, to tell them that they didn't need to fuck him and that there were alternate ways to arrive at the same destination…and wondered what the hell he was thinking.

"If it is for my dear friend's sake, then any trial is not above consideration…and this is far from, a trial…"

"Shinano speaks truly, Alexander-sama. I do not doubt this will be…enjoyable for all. Else why would our sisters covet your presence so?"

"I mean, there's more to it than just my dick."

Although at the moment he couldn't think of any other reason he cared to mention, the hypnotizing sight of the Sakura women crawling closer - loose robes revealing prodigious chests - with undulating tails and twitching ears quickly causing a discernible reaction down under his clothing.

"Screw it, if they're willing and this works then I'm all for it."

Setting aside what few inhibitions he DID have a moment ago Alexander instead watched and waited as both women gently rubbed against him, busts squishing as they lightly pushed him onto his back, looming overhead as they began to breathe that much heavier, Amagi sensually whispering, "Let us attend to you, Dragon-sama."

"This is a nice moment, do we really need to-"

His complaint was silenced as the brown-haired Sakura bent low, catching his lips in a soft kiss that accompanied a low hum of satisfaction, the Aloadae gently running his hands through Amagi's hair and teasing her scalp as immaculately groomed fox-tails began to sway with audible swishes.

Her technique was pretty advanced, too. A delicate tongue slowly but thoroughly exploring his teeth and gums, playfully flicking against his own muscle before retreating as she nibbled and sucked on his lower lip, swaying and pressing her body against his with just the right amount of teasing to get him all worked up.

"Not just me, Dragon-sama…Shinano too."

Pulling back from the lip lock and rolling onto her side Amagi made room for her sister to rest fully atop Alexander's body, the silver-haired fox flushing an alluring shade of pink as she demurely replied, "My apologies, Dragon-sama, but I would not presume to be as experienced a lover as-"

Putting an end to the fox's self-recrimination Curtis was the one to initiate this time, silencing the carrier's words as he let his arms encircle her waist, pulling the Sakura into a heated kiss as an endearing breath of shock left her nostrils, quickly melting away into shy passion as she responded in kind.

While not as experienced or familiar with physical intimacy as Amagi seemed to be Shinano more than made up for it with demure enthusiasm, lightly pecking at his lips and shyly squirming in his arms, hesitantly cupping his face with her hands as gentle breaths that smelt of some kind of herbal tea and perfume suffused his senses.

"Fuck, I sure hope no one ever makes me pick."

Eventually Shinano retreated just as Amagi had, both Sakura kneeling beside him before in unison they removed their robes, the soft fabrics pooling around their knees and exposing their chests to the supremely interested male's roving gaze, admiring their bodies as they both subtly preened at his attention.

Yet again, he prayed that no higher power ever made him pick between them. While Shinano was a bit bigger than Amagi, with soft pink nipples already standing upright with eagerness atop heavy mounds the battleship's still impressive bust was cast into sharp definition by her dark bodysuit, the silky fabric clinging to her every curve and lending an air of exoticism to the woman.

"Would you like to, ahh…touch us, Dragon-sama?"

"Will I find myself castrated for defiling the Oracle of the Sakura?"

The roguish grin caused Shinano to shy away slightly, Amagi merely smiling as she mused, "Considering her infatuation with you I believe Nagato will endeavor to shield you from any and all consequences…you may do as you wish to us, Dragon-sama."

Alexander allowed a smirk to adorn his lips.

"What did I say about the whole Dragon-sama bit?"

Dual moans left the shipgirls as his hands latched onto their tits, sizable enough that even his larger body was able to get a nice handful, flexing and squeezing his fingers as soft flesh flowed between them.

Shinano's silky and immaculate flesh, Amagi's fabric-covered teat, the warmth and elasticity…Alexander grinned as he rolled and pinched the Sakura's mammaries, marveling at their faces and myriad of expressions as he went to town on their breasts.

"A-ah, Dragon-sama…hya?!"

A squeak left Shinano as he gave a sharp but mostly teasing twist of his wrist, deforming her bust as the fox positively shuddered at the action.

"Do I really need to keep harping on the name deal?"

Before they could respond he released them, the globes jiggling slightly as they returned to their normal position as he laced his hands behind his head and reclined in a nearby pillow throne, deciding to exercise his evident authority before saying, "Why don't the two of you use those tits of yours in kind?"

To make his statement clear he undid the front of his own robes, letting his cock spring free and stand at alert attention as both foxes blinked at the throbbing length, obviously caught off guard by his virility…and didn't hesitate to move in close, their robes left behind as they crawled forward and positioned themselves above the twitching meat, breathing heavily as they grabbed their ample globes and tenderly sandwiched his length between them, obediently engulfing his rod in pillowy heat as a pleased groan left the Aloadae.

"Holy shit. I can't believe they're actually doing this."

Sure, they had said he was basically god to them but this was actual proof of that, the male scarcely able to believe that he held real power over such beautiful women.

"Ah, should we not attend to Dragon-sama, more seriously?"

"We should indeed, Shinano."

Watching with rapt fascination as the carrier and battleship drew close to his leaking head a blissful sigh left the Aloadae as silky lips planted a kiss apiece on his head, the sensation every bit as delightful as he'd imagined it would be…and even that compared to how it felt as the duo began to slide their heavy mounds up and down his shaft, the alternating movements and constantly varying pressure sending him to Heaven, like a handjob but much more tender and all encompassing.

That wasn't even factoring in the eye candy and additional pleasure he got from the sight of the fox pair lathering their lips and tongue on the tip of his head, completely uncaring if their chests flowed and pressed together or spit was swapped, faces flushed as they kissed and sucked on his glans with tender and dutiful motions, Alexander letting loose groans and grunts of approval.

And promptly decided to reward them by reaching and gently scratching or petting their ears, both shipgirls tensing for a moment at the contact before their tails began to happily sway back and forth, picking up the pace in a manner that had Alexander breathing hard, grunting out, "I'm going to cum, you two are way too good at this-"

Before he could finish that sentence Amagi dipped down, sealing her mouth over his cock and hollowing her cheeks as she tried to evidently suck the life out of him, an intense hiss leaving the male as pressure and release mixed into a potent burst of physical pleasure, cum flying into Amagi's throat as she dutifully drank ever last spurt with audible swallows that just made the entire experience that much more potent.

"Mmm…you are quite virile, Dragon-sama."

"Okay, now you're just deliberately messing with me. That calls for discipline."

Enjoying the game they were playing Alexander pushed forward, toppling a surprised Amagi onto her side as he grabbed a delicate and suit-covered leg, hiking it up against his shoulder as one hand held it steady, the other tracing teasing arcs against the inside of her thigh and tickling the more sensitive skin on display…all while his eyes focused on the drenched and moist patch of fabric sticking to her nether lips, the shape and texture causing him to smirk.

"No underwear, Amagi? Are the regal and composed Sakura actually wild and animalistic in private? I mean, you wouldn't guess that from Nagato or Kawakaze…"

A rather adorable blush colored the Sakura's cheeks, sending him an askance glance as she murmured, "It seems you show your true colors at last, Dragon-sama."

"Only when given permission."

And with that he gave an experimental push of his hips, flared head rubbing against the soaked fabric of her bodysuit as the battleship tensed in surprise, Shinano raptly watching from the side as she murmured, "Will that not impede…you, Dragon-sama?"

"As if."

The Aloadae grinned as a breath gasp left Amagi's throat, his head pushing past her puffy entrance while her bodysuit went taut around her body as it strained against his invading length, the fox tensing and trembling as she panted with anticipation, tails lashing with audible thumps against the ground as Alexander found that the whole experience was really quite novel.

Factor in Amagi's already tight walls with the silky resistance of her suit being in play and it was a double whammy of sensation, warm and squishy walls grasping and massaging his sides while straining textiles kissed his slitted head, the male smirking as he already felt the material begin to give way-

-and with a soft snap it broke, his length plunging inside with one clean movement while the tension in her body suddenly went slack, a breathy gasp of delight escaping the battleship as Shinano just stared with a flushed and nervous expression.

Rightfully so, in all honesty. Even if she and Amagi were taller and bustier than some of their fellow sisters he was a veritable giant in comparison that came packing, even Amagi's pelvis had the slightest of raises to it as she struggled to accept him.

"S-so impressive, Dragon-sama. I shudder to think of what - hah - Lady Nagato and the others would have experienced…"

Slowly pulling himself out of her greedy cunt alongside the ripped remains of her suit the Aloadae languidly stated, "They managed just fine, you shipgirls are incredibly durable. But, honestly…"

He leaned down and he stroked back inside the shipgirl as a low moan escaped the woman, nipping at a pointed ear as it rapidly flicked before musing, "Is talking about other girls really something you want to be doing right now? After all, this moment is all about the two of you."

He finished off the statement with a tried and true tactic of sending a puff of air into her fox ears, womanhood clenching around his embedded girth as she shivered at the action. And then he really started going to town, one hand holding her leg up and the other wrapping her tails around them as additional leverage, pushing into her sopping folds at a frantic pace as their pelvises connected with loud smacks each and every time.

What was interesting was that Amagi wasn't a very loud lover but rather a very physical one, showcasing every bit of pleasure and sensation she was experiencing in the most blatant way possible. One hand scratched and pawed at the floor, another grabbed and twisted a heavy breast while the leg not held immobile in his grasp looped and curled around his own, tails thumping and curling even as they were held tight within a closed fist while nothing more audible than a quiet moan or breathy gasp graced his ears.

It wasn't long before he felt himself reaching his limit, the sight of the battleship pushed back and forth along the floor as her bodysuit conformed and accentuated her curves just made it that much harder to hold back and quite frankly he wasn't in the mood for any such thing, hilting himself and rumbling in pleasure as he painted the shipgirl's insides white, her form shuddering with release as her heavy breathing evened out into something resembling normality.

"That was…incredible, Dragon-sama."

"It just so happens to be someone else's turn as well."

Withdrawing himself from Amagi with a light sluck noise he turned to an equally nervous and anticipating Shinano, the Oracle alternating her gaze between his swaying and dripping cock and his eager smile.

"Ahh…please go easy on me, Dragon-sama?"

"Not a fucking chance."

A throaty moan left the busty carrier as he crashed his lips into hers, hands snaking around her waist and grabbing her soft ass before lifting her above his crotch, able to be dropped onto his waiting meat at any moment of his choosing as he released her from the kiss, saliva coating her chin and prodigious chest with a shimmering trail before the Aloadae purred, "Not when you're the dream and fantasy of so many. Who wouldn't give an arm and a leg for the chance to merely hold your hand?"

A cute blush colored the Sakura's pale skin-

-and it was replaced with a far more crimson hue as he bucked his hips forward, breaching her presumably virgin tunnel as a low, sensual whimper escaped the carrier, her tails looping forward to cover him like an embrace as she mewled, "Dragon-sama, I don't…so big-hyah~!"

While still quiet and relatively subdued Shinano was a fair bit louder than Amagi, compensating for the increased volume with a complete and total submissiveness as she wrapped her stockinged legs around his waist and hung on tight, allowing him to set the pace as a hesitant motion of her neck ended with a loving kiss that left her humming with delight into his throat.

"There is a LOT to be said for this entire scenario."

Aside from the massive ego and power trip he got from fucking some of the Sakura's most renowned spiritual leaders Shinano herself was utterly endearing with her soft and pliable lovemaking, such a sinful and luscious form utterly compliant with his wants as her bountiful chest squished against his own, exotic ears and tails constantly twitching and caressing his body as he carved deeper into her womanhood.

"Ah, Dragon-sama…something is…is-"

A final, full-bodied shudder left the fox alongside a deep moan as her pussy clenched like a vice around Alexander's embedded length, the male smirking at how he'd managed the testosterone boosting feat of making a cultural idol cum before he'd even gotten close.

Something that Shinano seemed to realize as he gently stroked her back, coming down from her high as fuzzy ears flattened in mortification, the carrier quickly stating, "My apologies, Dragon-sama. I-eh?"

The confused murmur coincided with him pushing the fox atop of the still sprawled Amagi, both women blinking at their close proximity as the Aloadae gave an experimental stroke of their loins with his dripping head, both shuddering at the sensation.

"No worries, Shinano…you'll have plenty of opportunities to make up for that transgression."

The three promptly forgot what they had initially been trying to do as the imagined terrain became home to moans and cries of passion, a certain AI watching from the distance with a mix of intense exasperation and blushing mortification.

[...Master?]

"Yeah yeah, I know. We forgot what we were supposed to be doing.]

[Thankfully I did not.]

Curtis couldn't help but wince at the AI's reproachful tone, figuring that he had kinda left her to take care of things while he'd gone off to horny dreamland.

He honestly couldn't remember the last time he'd woken up to a giant, sticky wet spot in his pants.

"So how did it end up going?"

[Why not ask her yourself, master?]

Turning to do just that as Amagi and Shinano slowly roused themselves to alertness - both foxes pressed deeply into his side - he could immediately tell that they had let loose a fair amount of ejaculate themselves, if they way they stiffened as they moved their hips was any indication.

"Well, join the club."

"How do you feel, Amagi? We got a little sidetracked but TB says she was able to complete her corrections once we were, uhh…sufficiently connected."

Despite the innuendo the news that she might have been fixed seemingly trumped lewdness, the fox quickly sitting upright and taking a variety of hesitant, almost frightened breaths. Some deep and long, others short and stuttery as she both straightened and hunched her back as Shinano looked on with the most expressive and eager look he'd seen her sport to date.

"I…I feel healthy. As if nothing was ever wrong with me at all…"

The battleship's eyes were wide and full of disbelief, that she could apparently exist and breathe without difficulty for the first time in her life, tails swaying madly as her ears flicked with a nervous sort of energy.

"Guess the procedure went off without a hitch, huh-mmf?"

Amagi seized his lips with almost frantic desire, parting from the kiss a moment later as her tails danced with a mad energy, bowing low as she gravely intoned, "My loyalty is and shall always be yours to command, Alexander-sama. I declare that here and now, and shall declare it again wherever or whenever you may see fit for me to do so."

The male sent a plea for help Shinano's way - he wasn't up to date on Sakura politics but he WAS certain holding the personal loyalty of one of their big wigs over Nagato's own authority was a big no no - but the silver fox just seemed happy in her own quiet way for Amagi's good health and of absolutely no help to his current predicament.

"...Fuck it. If I command her absolute loyalty then I can just tell her to listen to Nagato, that should work out alright. Hopefully."

Settling for a resigned nod the Alodae replied, "Happy to have it. Now as for my first command I order you and request of Shinano that we go to the showers to get properly clean. After all…"

He allowed the surge of pride at yet again being able to affect the shipgirl's futures for the better to infect his smile.

"We need to spread the good news."

OMAKE:

"Alexander, while it makes me quite happy to see Amagi and Shinano in such high spirits I think this is…telling of your preferences."

Accepting the closest thing to a rebuke he'd ever heard Jeanne mention Alexander grimaced at the greetings and well wishings taking place, Amagi and Shinano cheerfully and childishly accepting their sisters older congratulations…which was fitting, seeing as they had been shrunken to a size that made even the subs seem mature in comparison.

"Tell me about it. Knew you were just fine with them on the smaller side like those two queens but even a scoundrel like myself has standards, you know?"

Bart's teasing words had Alexander groaning and pulling at his hair, desperately responding, "I have no idea what went wrong! I don't have a preference for bigger or smaller women, I like em' in all sizes. And even then girls like I-13 or Vampire have a feminine charm to them that makes it hard to view them as kids. This is…what the fuck."

Belfast merely patted him on the shoulder - the gesture not at all consoling when he could TELL the maid was trying not to add her own playful barbs to the mix - as two scampering foxes both ran towards him, tails flying behind their bodies as a high-pitched but nonetheless wise voice spoke up with, "Are you being mean to Dragon-sama? He didn't do anything wrong, you know."

Adorable enough to classify it as a warm crime described the shrunken Amagi and Shinano as they clung to his legs, barely cresting his knee as their fluffy tails curled around each limb, Shinano demurely stating, "He healed my friend and made us as he wished…that is no crime."

"Please stop pouring fuel on the fire."

Now many sets of eyes were on him, the Bakunawa's retrofit bay not nearly loud enough for his liking.

"Actually, Dragon-sama…that dream was really nice and made us feel all fuzzy. Can we do it again? We promise we can take it."

With even the Commander offering an unimpressed look as two tiny foxes stared up at him with adoring eyes as they propositiond him for sex Alexander privately wished that Purifier had killed him in a heroic last stand or something like that.

"Lolicon~."

Eugen's playful whisper in his ear was the last straw, a defeated sob leaving the towering male.

"Please let me die in the next campaign."
