Characters involved in this chapter: Violet, Ruby, Juniper, Joan, Mimi, Alice, Kelly

Apparently more colors have people's names than I had thought. Alice Blue, Kelly Green, Mimi which is a shade of pink, it's honestly interesting.

Apparently Ansel had a hot spring, who knew? The sleepy little town in the middle of nowhere liked to keep the knowledge of the spring secret to prevent tourism, but anyone who lived in town knew of its existence and by extension of my slaves, so did I.

I hummed low in my throat as I leaned back into the warm embrace of the woman behind me. Soft mounds of flesh pressed into my upper back, blonde hair falling just past my face as I rested against my companion, warmed by the water of the springs around us. Behind me, Juniper wrapped her arms around my chest, smooth flesh pressing into my breasts as she embraced.

"Tired Mistress?" The matriarch asked me softly. I shook my head, shifting in the water as I rose to press myself even further into her, resting against her ample chest.

"No, just relaxing. It's been a busy week for me so it's nice to just take a day off."

She hummed as she squeezed me softly, "Is there anything we can do to help make it more relaxing?"She offered suggestively.

I snorted, reaching out and pulling the girl beside me closer. Joan squeaked, face flaring with her blush as her naked form was pulled into my own. I gave her a grin, trailing my fingers up her naked side, ending with my hand lightly cupping her modest breast, "I can certainly think of a few ways you can help me… take a load off were."

At my suggestive glance, Joan's eyes widened. They did so even further as my eyes trailed down her body, taking in her perky breasts and pink nipples and the barely-there muscles in her abdomen, before falling even lower to peer at the pink slit held between her legs.

I licked my lips, tweaking one of her nipples and relishing the soft moan that emerged from her mouth, "It really is too bad that Saphron and Terra had to return home. I would love to fuck those sluts one more time. Saphron was really getting the hang of sucking cock."

Like in canon, the two women had a son and had actually left him with a sitter while they had visited their family and needed to return to him. I personally had no intense feelings towards Adrian Cotta-Arc given that he was a literal toddler, but I certainly hadn't appreciated the fact that his presence was preventing me from using my slaves.

I had briefly mused the idea of making the entire family forget about the boy's existence to spare me the headache, but eventually decided against it. Maybe it was the dying whimpers of my conscience, but the idea of just abandoning a child left a bad taste in my mouth and so I decided to think of another way to deal with the issue.

I eventually decided on just taking the boy in. There were several beautiful and most importantly empty properties on the lands I owned and even more near my manor. I would simply let Terra and Saphron raise their son there along with a few of my maids. He would live a life of luxury, with his every need and whim attended to until I secured my place as Empress of Remnant, at which point he would join his parents and the rest of the world as my thralls. Simple.

Still, that didn't change the fact that Saphron and Terra had only hired the sitter for a week and needed to get back to their son by the end of the day. They were still gone and I was still left wanting for two of my newest slaves.

Eh, oh well. It wasn't like I didn't have literally their entire family at my beck and call as well.

With that thought, I moved my hand upwards and away from Joan's nipple to cup the back of her head. She gave an adorable squeak as I pulled her in, locking my lips to her own in a firm kiss.

"Oh my!" Juniper sounded out behind me, "I think you've shocked her Mistress. I believe that was her first kiss." She giggled.

Deciding to make it one to remember, I deepened my lip-lock with the girl, hands coming up to cradle her face gently as I tilted my head sliding my lips against her own as I inserted my tongue into her mouth. She gave another surprised sound at that, and I slowly opened my eyes to find her staring at me with wide sapphire orbs. I gave her a wink, moving my lips against hers as I slowly coaxed her tongue into moving against my own with some success.

As I made out with her daughter, tongue twisting around the short blonde's as my hands cradled her jaw, Juniper leaned forward, taking my cock in her hand, jerking it softly while she stared at the two of us, "My daughter's first kiss… What a wonderful sight! I'm so happy I could be here for it." She sighed happily.

Across the spring, Ruby let out a loud moan of pleasure. I glanced over, taking in her lounging form, legs spread widely as her hands stretched downward, fingers threaded into blonde hair as she forced the owner's head deeper into her core. One of her feet was planted firmly on the blond's back, the other hooked around her neck and forcing her face between her legs, very clearly dominant in a way that Ruby seldom was.

I turned my attention to the blonde. Much like everyone else in the Arc household, she possessed an hourglass figure, with a thin waist and supple hips and ass that was currently pointed towards me. Unlike everyone else in the household, there was also a semi-hard cock between her legs, one that she had her hand wrapped around, stroking it softly.

Mimi Arc was a quiet girl, possibly owing to the fact that she was the only futa in such a large family of women. She, like Joan, had seemingly acquired a crush the moment Ruby and I had entered her view. Only unlike her sister, she had become infatuated with Ruby instead of me, sneaking glances towards the oblivious redhead whenever she had the opportunity.

Now, given Ruby's altered mental state, there wasn't a chance in hell of her returning the girl's feelings and I honestly had no intentions to change that, she was mine after all, but that didn't mean that she couldn't still use her. It had been a simple thing to pull Ruby aside and convince her to give Mimi a chance to have some fun with her. Of course, that came with the caveat that the girl wasn't allowed to put her cock anywhere near Ruby's pussy, but I don't think she honestly cared about that.

And if things went well and Mimi performed well enough, maybe she could even become Ruby's pet. I couldn't always be around to pleasure her after all and she was getting bored of fooling around with Summer and Yang. It would do her some good to have a person to wait on her hand, foot, and cunt when I wasn't around.

Luckily, it seemed that she was indeed enjoying Mimi quite a bit given the way her face was twisted into an expression of pleasure and the fact that her hips were currently moving at a rapid pace as she rubbed herself into Mimi's mouth. And from the way her breath was hitching, I knew what was approaching.

The redhead ground her cunt into the girl's face as she came, covering the girl's delicate features in her slick as she did so. Mimi apparently liked this quite a bit, as the submissive girl's hand began moving along the length of her cock even faster, stroking herself as she dug her tongue even deeper into Ruby's quivering hole.

Even as Ruby's ass fell back to the ground as her orgasm subsided, Mimi didn't stop sucking at her pussy, instead digging her tongue even further into her as her hand stroked her own cock hard and fast below her. Soon enough, either from the taste of Ruby's cum or the fact that she had been the one to cause it, Mimi came as well. She let out a moan that was muffled by Ruby's pussy as her cock jerked in her grip, spurts of thick cum shooting from the tip to splatter on the ground below her.

I rolled my eyes at the sight of her orgasming just by getting Ruby off. Mimi was apparently super fucking submissive, to the point that even Ruby of all people was able to dominate her. It was kind of odd to watch honestly, but I couldn't say it wasn't hot.

"Having fun Ruby?" I called out to my girlfriend as she slowly ran her hand through Mimi's hair. She gave a lidded look, a lazy grin on her face as Mimi's tongue went to work on her once more.

"She's amazing Mommy." Ruby sighed happily, "Nobody but you has eaten me out like that. It's like she's in love with my pussy or something, it's amazing."

I hummed lightly, "How would you like to keep her? I know you're jealous of Summer because she has a pet. Do you want Mimi to be yours?" I asked casually, leaning forward to place another chaste kiss on Joan's lips.

Ruby's face lit up, "I can have her? I'll be sure to treat her right Mommy! She loves to eat my pussy so I'll make sure to wake her up every morning by sitting on her face so she can get a good breakfast!"

I grunted into Joan's mouth as I came from her filthy words, cum spurting from my cock to cover Jumper's hand and mix with the water around us. The woman gave a small noise of surprise that quickly turned to a happy humm as her hand was completely covered in the white liquid.

After I finished cumming, Juniper brought her sullied hand to her face, taking in the white coating with an hungry expression, "Oh my, so thick…" She gave her hand a languid lick, savoring the taste of my semen as if filled her mouth, humming in pleasure.

As Ruby got into her groove once more, grinding against Mimi's face, I recovered from my orgasm, pulling Joan into my lap and grinning at the wide-eyed look of surprise on the girl's face as her legs were brought over mine, her pussy resting against my hard cock underneath the water.

"So Joan," I began casually, resting my hands on her hips and lightly moving her back and forth, causing her pussy to grind into me and eliciting a moan from the shy girl, "I couldn't help but notice you staring at me all day. Care to tell me what that was about?" I teased.

To my surprise, the girl gave me a shaky grin as she was slowly rubbed against me, "W-well what can I say? I w-was stunned by your beauty and couldn't look away." Her speech was interspersed by soft moans, breaking up the...

I blinked as the words registered, spoken with shaky confidence as if she was delivering a cheesy pickup line. Was she flirting with me? While I was forcefully grinding her against my cock, ready to use her pussy for my own pleasure? That… that was fucking adorable!

She let out a squeak as my hands lifted her up, slowly positioning her entrance directly above my cock, "M-Mistress, are you gonna…?"

I grinned at her sultrily, "Call me Violet sweetie. I've decided, you're too cute to not be mine. Congratulations Joan, out of everyone in your massive family, you get to be my girlfriend. You lucky girl." As her face bled red, I lowered her down onto my cock, slowly making my way inside of her incredibly tight pussy.

Joan's eyes went wide, her mouth opening in shock as she slowly slid down my length. I grunted as I felt her pussy massage me, she was definitely a virgin, lack of hymen or no, she was way too tight to have ever taken anything inside of her before.

With some effort, I managed to bottom out inside of her, our hips meeting firmly underneath the water. I gave a sigh, feeling the tip of my cock rubbing against her cervix, "There's a good girl. You feel amazing Joan." I praised the girl, watching with glee as the blush on her cheeks spread down her neck and to the top of her chest.

"T-thank you Violet." She panted out, trying to get used to the feeling of my cock inside of her. Her eyes clenched shut, and her pussy clenched around me as she gave a loud moan, "I-ah! I think I just came!" She moaned out.

I barked a laugh, trailing my hands up her sides as she clenched down around me, before tightening my grip on her hips, "Let's make sure you did." I said, before begging to manually move her up and my cock.

Her clenched eyes shot open as she was bounced on me, my cock spreading her out over and over as her thighs spread around my own. Her blue eyes rolled back into her head at the feeling, so overwhelmed with pleasure that the only thing coming out of her mouth were tiny squeaks.

"You're fucking her so deeply Mistress!" Juniper whispered into my ear, pressing her tits into my side. I bought a hand up, squeezing one of the large mounds as I continued to bounce Joan up and down, enjoying the way her virgin pussy felt clenching around my cock, "Does she feel good, Joan? How does it feel to have your new girlfriend's cock so deep inside of you?" She cooed.

I gave a soft sigh as Joan began to bounce on her own, adorable squeaks emerging from her mouth as she placed her hands on my shoulders to keep herself steady.

"V-Violet! Ah~ Feels so good!" She moaned out loudly.

Deciding to change positions, I grabbed Joan around the waist, keeping her impaled on my cock as I stood from the water. I turned around to the lip of the spring, placing the still-moaning girl down on the edge as I loomed over her, between her legs.

Now in missionary position, I began actively thrusting into the girl, plunging into her pussy happily as her loud moans echoed in my ears. My balls slapped against her supple ass as I stared down at her face, twisted in an expression of pleasure. Adorable little moans escaped from her lips as her body rocked back and forth, her hips arching up into my own.

"Fuck her Mistress." Juniper encouraged somewhere out of my sight, "I want my daughter's first time to feel special so give her everything you have!"

I was more than willing to listen to the MILF's words, increasing the pace of my thrusts by several magnitudes, the sounds of my hips slapping against Joan's echoing out throughout the hot springs. Her once quiet moans increased in volume until she was practically screaming into my ear, hands clutching desperately at me and no-doubt leaving red marks on my back.

Soon enough, I was ready to cum. I thrust a few more times into that wet heat, before plunging my cock forward as far as it would go, pressing against her cervix once more as I unloaded directly into her womb. She gave a loud squeak at the feeling that quickly transitioned into a moan as her arms wrapped around me, cummming from the feeling of my seed flooding into her

As I jerkily thrust into her pussy, Joan's mouth was moving a mile a minute, "Ah! It feels so good! It's so hot and good Violet! I love you! I love youIloveyouIloveyou-Ah!" Her words cut short as she gasped loudly and I groaned as her pussy began squeezing down even more tightly around me, the slick walls trying to strangle the life from my cock.

Despite this, I continued sawing in and out of her, using our mixed fluids as lube as I kept pumping my cum into her deepest depths, draining my balls into my newest girlfriend.

As my orgasm ceased, I dimly wondered how Weiss would take to this newest addition to my little harem. In canon, Jaune had annoyed her to no end with his endless flirting, but Joan was infatuated with me not her this time, maybe they could get along?

Eh, if they didn't I'd just make them. Wasn't that hard of a change.

I sighed happily as I removed my cock from Joan's pussy, a few leftover spurts of cum shooting forward to coat the girl's pussy and stomach as she panted, staring up at the ceiling with a lidded expression. Her chest heaved, pink nipples bouncing hypnotically and drawing my eye as she gave a small, nearly unhearable moan as cum began leaking from her pussy, pooling on the floor below.

The embers of my lust reignited at the sight, and I moved forward to claim the girl again, only to be interrupted.

"Oh Mistress~" Juniper's voice called out off to the side. I looked over curiously, and immediately the smoldering lust in my core sprung up into a raging fire once more. The sexy MILF was currently sitting on the tiled floor, legs raised and spread as a hand dipped down to spread her leaking pussy. Her long hair fell down her shoulders, strands of silken blonde covering her nipples in a way that was oddly seductive. Her lidded blue eyes stared into my own as she beckoned me forth with a finger, "Why don't you let my daughter get some rest after her first time, hmm? There's another pussy that will fit your fat cock just fine over here, and it is more than willing…"

My cock jumped at the sight, and I grinned as I began to make my way over to the woman. Let Joan have her rest, I had a perfectly good slut right here.

You know that old saying that you never really know how thirsty you are until you take that first sip of water? I never knew how true that was until just now.

My throat worked overtime to gulp down the chill liquid contained in the bottle being crushed in my grip. I gasped as I pulled the bottle from my lips, bringing a hand up to wipe off my sweat-soaked forehead, "Fuck me, that was refreshing."

"Sure as hell looked like it." I turned to the voice, raising an eyebrow as Kelly gave me a lopsided grin, "You downed that thing like your life depended on it. Maybe you need to stop cumming so damn much if you want to keep those fluids in your body, I'm pretty sure sis is pregnant now."

She glanced backwards at the couch, upon which was the barely-conscious form of her sister, Alice. The girl was currently face down, ass up as she groaned into the cushions. Her gaping pussy was leaking my cum, flowing down her thighs to pool on the fabric of the couch itself. Kelly tsked at the sight, "That's gonna take fuckin forever to clean up you know?" She said as she turned back to me.

Kelly was one of Joan's older sisters and the quintessential tomboy/bad-girl of the family, complete with the short hair and outgoing attitude. She was also fit as fuck, with the muscles under her skin clear as day as she cocked her hip at me, naked as the day she was born and not at all embarrassed about it.

I rolled my eyes as I tossed the empty bottle behind me, "That's not my problem. If you don't want it to make a mess, why don't you go lick it up? There is still quite a bit left in your sister." I pointed out.

Kelly tilted her head, looking like she was thinking about doing exactly what I had suggested, turning a thoughtful gaze to her sister cum-filled pussy, before she shook her head, "Nah. I don't think Alice would like that too much. She's always been weird about eating after other people so I don't think she'd appreciate me shoving my tongue in her pussy."

I nodded at her words. If Kelly was the tomboy of the family, Alice was the nerdy know-it-all. It had been kind of annoying, the sorts of things she had been spouting throughout the day, and I had taken a great amount of pleasure shutting her up via my cock, either in her mouth or her pussy.

Most behaved better with my cock inside them I had found. Who would have guessed?

Still, I gave Kelly a wry glance, "Well, if you don't want sloppy seconds, why don't you try it straight from the tap?" I pointed at my cock, still erect even after cumming so much in Alice's pussy.

Kelly's grin widened, "If you wanted me to suck you off, all you had to do was say so. I'm always down to suck a futa!" She said happily as she kneeled in front of me, tanned legs bending into a squat.

I snorted, smacking her on the head with my soaked shaft, "Even if it's got your sister's pussy-juice on it?" I challenged.

Kelly just gave me a lidded stare, bringing a hand up to softly grasp my cock. She brought it down, smacking herself in the cheek with it as she grinned cheekily, "That just makes it even better! Alice may not like that shit, but I honestly couldn't care less! All of us are hot as fuck, you'd have to blind not to see it."

Before I could parse the statement, Kelly engulfed my length with her warm mouth. She sucked and licked at the head of my cock, light brown eyes staring up at me full of lust, before taking it deeper into her throat. She hummed happily, a hand coming up to fondle my balls as she cleaned my cock free of her sister's pussy, tongue sliding along the length of my cock as she deepthroated me.

I grunted, bringing a hand down onto her head, "Damn girl, you're really getting into it! You must like sucking cock huh?"

She spent several more moments just keeping my dick inside of her mouth, before popping off of it, looking up at me with a happy grin as she stroked it rapidly.

"I love futa cock!" Kelly said happily, leaning down to shove my rod back into her throat, keeping it there for a moment before popping back off. She gave me a breathless look, slowly stroking my cock in front of her face, "It's like all the best parts of a woman, combined with the best part of a man! They're fuckin perfect!"

She leaned forward to place a soft kiss on my cockhead, grinning as a spurt of precum came free to paint her lips, and then immediately pulled me into her mouth once more.

Content to let her work, I brought my hands up to my chest, fondling my breasts as the tan slut throated my cock below me. I stared into her eyes as she slid back and forth along my shaft, lewd squelching sounds emerging from her throat as she took my entire cock over and over again. I pinched one of my nipples, teasing the nerves held there as my other hand went down to rub her head like she was a dog, eliciting a moan from her that sent wonderful vibrations throughout my cock

Kelly brought a hand down between her spread legs, rubbing at her trimmed cunt with frantic fingers as she began sucking my cock with even more zeal than before. Her nose constantly brushed up against my pelvis as she shoved the entirety of my shaft down her throat, pulling back and doing it all again.

After a moment of this, she pulled back to leave only the head of my cock in her throat. Brown eyes stared up at me as her tongue began to massage the spongy head, gifting languid strokes of her tongue to the glans, before slowly moving her head forward

I groaned as a particularly hard swab of her tongue caused my cock to jerk, rewarding her with a large drop of precum that leaked out of the engorged head, and causing her to let out a happy moan.

Deciding to go ahead and get into the main event, I pulled myself free of Kelly's throat, grimacing as she tried to keep me inside by sucking on it even harder. Eventually, my cock escaped her hungry maw with a pop, and she gave me a sheepish grin at my raised brow, smallish chest heaving with her pants.

I slapped her a few times with my spit-soaked shaft, rolling my eyes at her rapturous expression every time I made contact, "You really are a slut aren't you?" I asked rhetorically.

At my words, Kelly's fingers picked up speed between her legs, rubbing at her cunt with an incredible fervor and sending her juices flying everywhere, "Yesss… I'm a dirty little slut for futa cock, Mistress. Nothing gets me going more than a stacked bitch with a big dick!" She panted.

I snorted, "Well I may not be 'stacked' as you put it, but I've certainly got the second part down." I leaned down, hooking my arms underneath her toned thighs, pulling her up from the squat she had somehow been holding this entire time as I made my way over to the nearest wall. Her legs curled around my back, pressing herself into me as her back slammed against the wall.

Not wasting any time, I immediately plunged my cock into her, lowering her down until I had bottomed out in her clenching pussy.

"Holy shit dude, you're so fuckin big!" Kelly groaned out as I bounced her up and down on my cock. Her arms and legs wrapped around me happily as she clung to me like a koala, her short hair tickling my face as she panted into my ear, ""You're filling me up so good! My pussy feels so fuckin full!"

I huffed, giving her ass a hard slap before squeezing it, feeling the tight muscles tense in my grip as I pushed her harder against the wall, "I thought you loved fucking futas, you're telling me none of the ones you fucked had cocks like mine?"

Kelly just shook her head, "Fuck no! None of them have even come close!" She pressed forward, placing her head against my collarbone, "It's gonna make me-ah! Fuck!"

She let out a long, drawn-out moan as she came. I paid her no mind apart from just increasing the speed of my thrusts, fucking her into the wall as I used her clenching pussy for my own pleasure.

I angled my hips so I could thrust even better up into that tight hole, using her body which was pressed up against the wall to hold myself up as I really got into it. My core ached and burned with how quickly I was thrusting but the pleasure overode the pain by miles, letting me continue fucking my newest slut through the pain.

"Fuckfuckfuckfuck" She chanted into my collar as I continued bouncing her up and down on my length. Her pussy clenched and massaged my cock as she came again and again, not granted a moment of respite as I continued fucking her through them.

Sweat rolled down my naked back as I continued my assault on Kelly's cunt, pushing up into the moaning slut with everything I had, some animalistic instinct in the back of my mind pushing me forward, urging me to fully seed this whore who was wrapped around my cock.

The feeling of her squeezing pussy soon grew to be too much and I groaned as I blew my load into the tomboy's pussy, scorching cum shooting forward into her fertile womb as she jerked in my arms. Her ass clenched in my hands as she rolled her hips on my cock, cumming her brains out even as I filled her up with my own cum. Her moans echoed in my ear, much more quiet than I had expected from the girl, and she leaned her head forward to place her forehead on my shoulder, muffling them even more.

With a few more thrusts, I had emptied virtually everything I had within the girl who was still clinging to me like a limpet, shuddering against my body as her chest rubbed against my own.

I was still hard however, and so I tightened my grip, pulling her free from the wall and striding towards the couch that Alice was slowly regaining her bearings on. I placed Kelly down, resting her back against the cushions of the couch as I brought my hands down to her thighs, spreading her legs and pulling them around my shoulders.

I leaned forward, placing my hands on either side of the tomboy's head as I began thrusting into her once more. She panted into my face before raising her arms, gently cupping my face and pulling me down towards her. Our lips met and Kelly immediately set about doing her best to wrestle my tongue into submission. Our tongue's wrestled against each other as I continued to fill her up with my cock, pushing against one another in a battle that neither of us was winning.

As we did so, Alice came up beside us looking at her sister curiously, "Wow, she's never looked like that before while being fucked." She commented frankly. I pulled away from Kelly, her tongue trailing along my own as I gave the other blonde a curious look, "You watch your sister get fucked often?" I asked her as I continued thrusting inside of Kelly's cunt.

Alice shrugged, paying an odd amount of attention to my cock slipping in and out of her sister's cunt, "Sometimes she's really loud when she's got friends over and I get curious. I've almost walked in on her a few times, but I always manage to close the door before they see me."

I shook my head in disbelief, "You'd think after the first few times you'd stop trying to check."

"It's good research." Alice defended, "I don't have an interest in sex, it's gross, so I use Kelly as a benchmark for what it's supposed to feel like." She looked back at her sister, "She never looked like this though. She usually looks kind of bored unless she is sucking their penises." She muttered.

I grunted as I continued slamming myself inside of the tomboy's cunt, "You sure as hell didn't have a problem with sex when I was fucking you into the couch." I commented.

She looked at me like I was an idiot which I was absolutely going to punish her for later, "Yeah, but it's you, Mistress. Of course I'm fine with getting fucked by you."

That struck a chord within me, the idea of this girl who was apparently asexual putting aside her disgusted feelings towards sex and willingly getting fucked by my cock just because I had brainwashed her to be my slave was fuckin hot.

I panted as I thrust forward harder than ever before as I came once more into Kelly's pussy, filling the already flooded tunnel with even more semen. Brown eyes fluttered as she was filled to the brim, cum slipping free from the seal caused by my hips against hers.

Feeling even more left in the tank, I stepped back slightly, pulling out of the girl as my hand moved rapidly over my cock while I stared down at the two of them, lidded brown and wide blue eyes staring back at me. After just a moment, I groaned as my balls clenched once more, sending another load cum flying up the length of my shaft to surge forward onto the sisters.

Both sister's skin were covered in a thin layer of white as I unloaded over the two of them. Kelly moaned happily at the feeling of the hot cum landing all over her body, while Alice gave a small noise of discontent as her glasses and hair were covered in the sticky substance.

Just for that, I made sure to give her an extra coating as my orgasm subsided, making sure to jerk the last of my load directly over her face. I gave a small sighed as I finally finished, a pleasant ache settling in my balls as the last of my cum was deposited over the girl's features.

While Kelly immediately set about devouring the cum I had plastered her with, Alice gave a grimace as she looked down at my cum covering her body, bringing a hand up to wipe at her glasses, "You know, there is a distinct correlation between ingested semen and the contraction of STIs. Even if aura makes disease all but impossible you should still make sure to get tested every once in a while just in case of-mmf!"

I shut her up by shoving my cock in her mouth with an annoyed grimace, sighing in relief as her speech was cut short by several inches of dick blocking her windpipe. This was going to be a common occurrence I imagined.

Oh well, I'd just gag her if she kept spouting nerdy shit at me. It wasn't like she didn't have two other perfectly usable holes.

Elsewhere, in a dreary fortress, a self-proclaimed queen's eyes narrowed as she listened to her servant's words.

"...and it appears that it is all due to a great deal of influence by the head of Carze Manufacturing, Violet Carze. She has publicly stated that once Sanctuary is opened she will be the headmistress of the academy, which leads me to believe she is the one behind its conception." Cinder concluded her report, keeping her head bowed for her master.

Clawed fingernails tapped on the hard surface of her throne, "So they still believe they have a chance against my Grimm. How… optimistic of them."

Foolish more like. Salem had lost count of how many 'Huntsmen' had fallen to her Grimm. Several thousand at the very least by this point. It was honestly baffling how they hadn't completely lost hope for the idea of salvation from her will.

Still, though she did not show it, something about the sudden rise of this academy concerned her. The other Academy's were efforts of entire Kingdoms pooling their resources together to build a bastion of hope in their homelands. For this Violet to not only have the resources to do the same but also actually choose to do so was mildly concerning.

Salem had a bad feeling in her gut, and if there was one thing she had learned to trust in her many, many years on Remnant, it was her gut. She would have to keep an eye on this girl.

"Cinder, I have a new mission for you." The woman perked up at her words and Salem nearly rolled her eyes, ever the boot-licker. Still, she had her uses, only Tyrian was as devoted to her as his younger comrade, and that man was actually insane. And not even in the fun way.

She was rather attractive as well. The way her body filled out that outfit of hers so wonderfully caused a rising lust to build in the Grimm Queen, and crimson eyes flickered down to the small bit of pale cleavage that was allowed to her at her current angle.

Oh well, there would be time for that later. For now, she had important things to take care of.

"Yes Master, what are your orders?" Devoted eyes stared up at her as Cinder spoke softly.

Salem languidly pointed a finger at the kneeling woman, "You and your two minions will be attending this new Academy. Keep an eye on the Carze girl and any who closely associate with her."

"Do you want me to kill her if the opportunity presents itself?" Cinder asked and Salem shook her head.

"No, you are only to monitor her and report your findings back to me. As much as I would enjoy the panic and negativity caused by the assassination of the Headmistress of a new Academy, it would no doubt cause troubles for my other plans."

Cinder gave a reverent bow, "Understood. I will gather them up and make my way to Menagerie immediately."

"Oh, and Cinder," Salem called out to the woman as she made her way from the room. Said woman looked back at her curiously, "Yes, Master?"

Salem licked her lips, staring her up and down, "When you have informed your minions of their mission, report to my chambers. I have an… issue that needs dealing with." She emphasized.

Cinder's face bloomed scarlet and her eyes darted downward, before shifting back up just as fast, "Yes Master. I'll be there." She said, before beating a hasty retreat, heels clicking along the stone floors of the fortress.

Salem chuckled, "I know you will Cinder. You wouldn't miss it for the world."

As she was left to her lonesome, Salem leaned back, contemplating all that she had been told.

A new Academy, one that had been conceptualized and turned into a reality so quickly by one woman, it was concerning. Was she allied with Ozma? Had that fool found another pawn to play in their game?

Well, no matter, it wouldn't change their fates either way.

Let them build their little academies, training the next generations to fruitlessly fight her unending tide of darkness. Soon enough, it wouldn't matter how many stood against her.

"Let them foolishly try to fight for their survival." She spoke to herself, sinister magic leaking from her fingertips into a pool of inky black liquid that formed just off to the side of her throne, "Soon enough everyone will be mine.
