A white creature desperately run for its life through the snowy forest. It catches each its heavy breaths as the creature trying to escape from its pursuers, enduring the pain it took before separating from its kind.


    No matter where its goes, no matter how fast it runs, its pursuers sneeringly chasing the creature like tailing a weak prey. Aside from its paw marks on the white snow, the crimson liquid from its deep marks leave a trail of its tracks.


    The enemies ravaged their settlements and went on a violent onset to its upants. The other side ceased the opportunity of the cold season to attack the resting nemesis.


    The two tribes has been hostile against each other for a long time, long before the civilization. From disputes of authority for the scrimmaged territory to the survival of the fittest.


    The two opposing races used every single means to destroy and erase one another. But the attacking side were going to put an end of this long term rtionship in one day.


    The monster didn''t stop its silver hooves from running over the cold yet soft snow despite knowing its pursuers are ying with it. White puffsing out of its tired mouth as it catch its breath.


    Its staggered limbs are at its utmost limits escaping from its depredated home. Not long before the monster slowed its speed and copsed on exhaustion.


    "…Kyu…"


    A tired and low whine let out of the worn out and injured monster. A few secondster, its pursuers, three wolf-type monsters, casually waltzed through the snow approaching the lying monster.


    Now that ytime is over, one of the wolves kicked the monster with intention to kill. The monster flew fast towards the tree nearby. The force of the kick snapped the tree in half all the way to the second one, albeit didn''t break.


    The distance between the two trees are far, making the monster travelled long midair. Despite that, the monster keeps its body and soul together. The reason behind it was that the monster has higher Level and stats than the wolves.


    The wolves certain that they inflict enough damage to the monster, they slowly but confidently walked to it. But the wolves let their guards down.


    With enough time, the monster barely managed to cast a certain spell at random. Before the wolves noticed the disappearance of its smell, the monster vanished from the snow.


    ◆◇◆◇◆◇


    It''s the hottest days of the year. The season where the sun bathe the northern hemisphere of the world in heat, summer.


    In the middle of the day, in the month of Cancer, my sister, who had started to study at the academy in the Imperial Capital, sent a letter to us stating,


    ''I am very sorry, Mothers. I will be challenging the Imperial Dungeon to improve myself so I cannot go home this summer break. And also… expect visitors to visit our mansion.''


    "Seems like we cannot have Louise this summer." Mother, who is sitting on a couch, said in a sad manner. "I know training is a must, but family is important too."


    "Our daughter''s already a properdy." Mom, who is upying the excess space of Mother''s seat, sced Mother. "She not the little girl from before, you know?" Then she pulled Mother''s head into her ample sulent bosom.


    "Mmm~. Ay wery rav yu. Yur da bet." Mother then wrapped her arms around Mom.


    "Can you be more mindful of your surroundings?" Witnessing their coquetry, I blurted out my envy.


    Sophia, who''s sitting besides me, opens her arms. "Come here, Raphael. Let me spoil you."


    "Thank you, Sophia. You are the angel of my life." epting her invitation, I plunge my face unto the soft assets of my beautiful future wife.


    Although they are not as bounty as my Mom''s or Gabrielle''s, I still love them because they were owned by her.


    I took a nce at my mothers and glimpsed Mom winked at me when our eyes met. I winked her back as discreet as I could not to be noticed by Sophia.


    It''s been months since my approach to Mom. Since then, I barely engage an interaction with her for a few days, the same as her for me. Though we still continued our mother and son rtionship.


    Once our awkwardness settled, we eventually be more intimated with each other. When she was alone, I sometimes surprisedly hugged her from behind, sometimes, with rubs.


    Even with our intimacy, she didn''t gave me chance to hear her response to my feelings. She really wanted to say it this autumn.


    We stopped making physical contacts when Mother got home. Mother don''t know that I am flirting with her wife behind her back.


    But fret not Mother, once I''m done with Mom, you''ll be the next one, if only I''d stay alive that time, probably.


    I have to recruit these two high-ss generals to build my forces. The more the powerful and plenty my army will be, the more my chances to gain victory once I spark a revolution against my sister.


    (And I might take her, including her properties, as my spoils of the war once I win.)


    We are currently in the living area as we read Sister''s not so-good letter from the empire. Sophia''s in my side, using the same couch adjacent the flirty couple. She will be part of the family so she''s included in our family matters.


    I haven''t told her about the development of my rtionship with Mom. Sophia had saw Sister as a rival and I am going to add one soon. I truly do not want to hurt her but this is really all I want.


    I will slowly breaking down details to her time by time. I want to deploy cushions prior before dropping the bomb.


    Sister cannot visit us on her summer vacation because she''s been grinding herself inside a 70-floored dungeon. The Imperial Dungeon was a conquered one so the resurrection feature is avable.


    Without Sister means we cannot go dungeon crawling and face the 60th Floor Guardian together. Sister wanted to personally conquer the dungeon so I have to wait until her next vacation.


    But winter is cold so her next break might not be the right time.


    Mother and I passionately continued to embrace our respective partner for a while. With my satisfaction full-tanked, I raised my head to continue our conversation.


    "But what did she mean visitors?"


    "I don''t know. Perhaps she invited someone?" Still having her wife trekking her twin mountains, Mom answered my question while caressing Mother''s head.


    Sister told us to anticipate visitors this month. She didn''t specified who or how many will being, but as nobles, we have to give them a warm wee in the middle of summer.


    ◆◇◆◇◆◇


    After eating my lunch, I went to the forest, at the in to be exact, to continue my training. I already achieved my goal, which was to acquire Longevity skill, but mothers don''t know a thing of it yet.


    It might rouse suspicion if I suddenly stopped working. I also wanted to be stronger and better inbat, killing monsters to evolve into a High Human is my goal for life now.


    "Skwah!"


    "Hello, Griffith. I am here again."


    As usual, Griffith immediately rushed to me as she detected my presence after I teleported. If she missed me this much when I''m not here for just a day, how about when I started studying in the empire?


    (Maybe I can visit her once a week.)


    Michael and the others are in the Imperial Capital right now, enjoying their adventurers'' life. Leaving me no one to apany me.


    "Wanna rove around the forest with me?"


    "Skwah."


    "Hm. I''ll take that as yes."


    I opened my Inventory and withdraw her bridle. Equipped it on her before mounting her soft back.


    "st off!"


    Griffith slowly pped her wide and majestic wings then flew off to the azure sky. Flying constantly a thousand feet above the ground, we sonically stroll above the thick forest.


    I have motives going to the vast and dense forest instead inside the monster-rich dungeon. I''ve been ughtering monsters in the dungeon for some time until now.


    Stepping on the hot sands of the Desert Floors, kill indefinite amount of monsters, gain EXP then Level up, repeat.


    If still have free time, I fondle Gabrielle''s and thedies'' soft assets. Just grope, nothing more nothing less. Thedies are sure desirous and tempting but I have to set boundaries for a certain period.


    I''ve been doing the same thing since Sister''s departure. Three times a week, from cool spring to hot summer. Things had gotten boring except for the fondling part.


    Encountering and killing the same monster every single session pige no skill. Repeating attack patterns improve me no tactics nor strategies. That''s why I am looking for new monsters within the vast forest.


    "Oh! Looks like I detected something new."


    Almost an hour of swirling around the vicinity, a hundred kilometer south from the in, I perceived an unknown entity. Within the coverage of my Omnidirectional Perception, a quadrupedal creature popped up a dozen of kilometer ahead. But…


    "It seems badly injured… hurry up, Griffith."


    "Skwah!" She croak harshly, increasing her flight speed.


    Just half a minute had passed before we arrive andnded at the location. Upon stepping my feet on the earth, an unconscious and bleeding monster unfold on our eyes.


    I approached the monster and check its condition. "That''s a lot of damage."


    Its wounds are visibly deep and fatal despite its thick fur covered with blood. Broken bones and torn flesh surfaced from its skin. In spite of being in that situation, the three meter long mammal monster managed to make it alive and breathe heavily.


    "I have to heal it immediately before itpletely lose its life." I ced both my hands on its blood-drenched bushy silver fur. "Level 5 High Heal!"


    Pale aquamarine light emitted from the suffering monster, warm and soothing. Deep wounds quickly closed up and healed, bone fractures conjoined and fixed. The blood still strained its furs but the monster has beenpletely healed.


    "All done. But it''s still down for the count."


    After being healed, the monster''s stillying on the ground. It must have been mentally exhausted from all the trauma and distress it experienced today.


    I tried to find if it left trails like footprints or blood but couldn''t found any. I still couldn''t find out how it went here but we cannot stay put.


    "Alright. I don''t know what or who attacked it but it''s definitely dangerous if we stay here further. Let''s take it to the dungeon and wait for it to awake."


    I grasped Griffith and the monster at the same time and warped ourselves to the in then to the dungeon.
