There was something wrong that bothered Li Yang right now. It might have been the sex, but it was actually good—regardless of who he was doing it with right now. The sensation of pounding his dick into a pussy wasn't something that got old easily especially when it was a recent thing he got enmeshed in.
Perhaps if he were to differentiate between making love and fucking, then there'd be some difference? Although the former might have just been tenderly fucking his partner.
But that wasn't it.
With one final exhale, the man pulled out and eyed the Priestess Rei's creamed pussy. Li Yang looked around his surroundings with a frown. It was too quiet. There was supposed to be at least some noise, even minute background sounds but there wasn't anything like it at all.
"What's the matter?" Priestess Kei asked. Her golden eyes stared at him with a lascivious light as she bit her bottom lip.. She gazed at Rei who was currently resting against the mattress and completely sexed up. "If my sister is resting now, I can go for another turn with you. Or have you completely emptied your balls already?"
Those words made him click his tongue and eye her naked body.
The idea and even reality of having a woman available to sleep with with just one beck of a call could have been something like a man's dream. He wasn't completely tired actually, and with a little more stimulation—might get up and ready to go again.
And he could even just buy a Divine Energizer Drink for this.
While he may have shut down some notifications from appearing constantly—like Mass Charm Points Notification, or other stuff like that… it didn't mean that he wasn't getting them. Li Yang could easily purchase them now to refill himself.
And yet he didn't.
He instead glanced at Priestess Rei and asked. "Didn't you tell me that the rooms were too close together here and the walls were thin?"
Priestess Rei stared at the ceiling and wondered where she was for a moment. "Ugh, yeah—I always keep hearing you and Setsuko. It's one of the reasons why I was always pissed. Get yourself a room, but still it's not enough when I can hear everything."
"Well, I can't hear anything right now. Surely someone else must be in this Inner Court's hallway by now, right?" Li Yang said. He frowned and started to go down the bed, but was stopped by Kei reaching out and grabbing his wrist.
Kei trailed her fingers across his arm and gave him a seductive smile. "Almost all of the Inner Court Priestesses are in the arena in the forest, they're spectating the events. You don't have to worry about it."
"Then I should be there," Li Yang said and tugged his hand away. The man reached for his clothes and started dressing. "The sex has been fun and all—but the least I can do is watch Setsuko after all that she's done for me."
"... Do you really think she's going to be happy once she learns about this?" Priestess Kei motioned between them. While the woman kept the smile on her face, a certain glint flashed in her eyes as she said it.
Priestess Rei blinked and then stared aghast at her sister. "Kei!"
Li Yang scrunched up his face. "... I think what matters is being there for her when she needs me." The arrangement of their relationship as Consort and Lady was nothing more than mere fabrication, but he did care about Setsuko.
In a normal monogamous relationship then this was tantamount to cheating, but that wasn't what he was in. As far as the Heavens and his System was concerned, he was in a polyamorous relationship and it was supposed to be centered around him.
He hated how he needed to wrap his mind around this situation—but he'd cross the bridge with Setsuko once he actually got there. A part of him knew that she'd understand, as if he could tell how she'd react because of their energy bond.
Li Yang then shifted his gaze back to the table where his obsidian sword lay there with his business suit and he took the latter up first. Whether it was just an odd sensation within him, as if something was prickling the back of his head—he felt the urge to wear his normal clothes again.
And yet he couldn't go out looking like that.
Li Yang wore the robes he bought with Setsuko and then picked up his sword. The weapon felt light and ready in his hand and he made his way to the door. "I'll be leaving now."
"Haven't you mentioned that the High Priestess wants you to stay in your room?" Priestess Kei pursed her lips. "Where do you think you're going with that sword?"
"Please just tell me if you're going to try and stop me—it'll save us time." Li Yang glanced at her briefly.
Priestess Kei raised her finger at him. "Why you disrespectful—"
Priestess Rei quickly reached out and held her twin sister's hand down. As much as she hated where this conversation was going and she was aware of how things were not in the right place now—she gave the man a look. "Get out of here before my sister does anything more rash."
Li Yang's expression wavered slightly, but then he nodded. "Thank you, Rei. I owe you one."
He stepped out of the room and quickly saw and heard the sounds of fighting within and outside the temple's halls. The scent of fire and smoke engulfed his nose. "What the…?" His gaze flickered to a small object hanging above his door and he quickly tore it down and crushed it underneath his foot.
As he did that—an intruder stepped into the halls of the Inner Court.
It was a masked man holding a katana drenched in blood. The guy himself was not safe from injuries, but the man's eyes widened as he pointed his weapon at Li Yang. "Y-You there—are you a slave of one of the women here?"
