140 Mushoku Tensei

Two weeks after the wedding ceremony.
I took Sylphy and Roxy downtown.
To buy birthday gifts for Norn and Aisha.

We decided on a surprise party.
Secretly preparing a surprise for the sisters.

There's another reason that the three of us together, but I'll explain that later.

---

We arrive at the plaza.

Maybe because it's harvest season, the city has been particularly festive.
Carriages going to and forth, people selling fruits and vegetables with face full of smiles.
Food right now are fresh and cheap.

A platform rise in the middle of the plaza.

Soon it'll be the Harvest festival.
All the festival is a bonfire in the plaza, use big pots to cook the harvest, and everyone having a feast together.
No other event besides that.
Just gathering around the bonfire to thank earth for the harvest and feast together.
No singing or dancing.
Speaking of which, ingredients are available to anyone who brings a pot over.
Last year Aisha came to pick up some while I was away.
She said it wasn't very good because they just toss random junk in.
Will I have any this year?
I'm a bit interested even if it's not much good.

"This season sure is lively as usual."
"Yeah, people of all walks show up around this time."


Roxy glance back and forth with curiousity while Sylphy replies.

The students are enjoying themselves in the plaza, searching for merchants,
Farmers pushing cartloads of vegetables passing by,
Adventurers arguing it out after brushing each other's shoulders.
Only in this season would Magic City Sharia be this lively.

Many Beast Race can be found in the Plaza too.
Strong ones, wielding great swords the size of machetes.
They're here for the festival too.

The festival coincide with Pursena's and Rinia's mating season.  Warriors of all ages gather at the Magic University to win their hands.
Seems like Rinia and Pursena are ready to find mates as well.  They are taking the challenges seriously this year.
But regardless of traditions, they declared that they would only pick among suitors that defeat them.

Sword must be Saint Rank or better, Magic must be Advanced Rank or better, Adventurers must be at least A Rank or better, ideally have a  beautiful pelt, wild yet gentle, a man with upright tail and ears.
Even I think their standards might be a tad high.

Well, I wish that they find a good man.
Someone like me.

"..."

I look around.

Roxy to my left.
Sylphy to my right.
A flower in both hands.

"Um, Sylphy-san, Roxy-san."
"What is it, Rudeus-san?"
"Yes?"

"May I wrap my arms around you?"

A sudden bout of inspiration.
All men dream of this once.
That popular feeling that came with a girl on both sides.

Once upon a time, I'd spat out from seeing a guy like that.
But, in my heart I still yearn for it.
I must try it.

"Em."
"... Fine."

Sylphy leans in my right.
Roxy sheepishly leans on my left arm.

Ohh, envious eyes shower upon me like during the Resurrection of Jesus.
How pleasant, to be envied.

Just kidding.
Rather than in my delusions, basically no one looked.
Merchants are all too busy, and the all beast warriors are rushing to the Magic University.
Some students briefly glanced in my direction, but quickly looked away.
Adventurers too, whether at the tavern or bickering outside, waste no time to jeer at us.

Even so, I'm already satisfied.
In particular.
Of the sensations from my right hand.
The tactile feedback from here and there simply doesn't exist from Sylphy in the past.
'Here and there' might be a bit rude.
Her nibbles and breasts.

Messing with a girl's boobs in public.
Feeling wondrous gratification from something so simple.
My heart feels rejuvenated from the desert of youth that was my past life.

Just a little more, and this oasis may soon reach mini-perfect like Elinalise's.
In other words, right here exists twin islands where dreams are made of.
The treasure islands are right here!

Of course, not just Sylphy.
On my left Roxy's flat chest sticks tightly.
But flat doesn't mean nonexistent.
My well practiced arms easily identifies the softness in Roxy.

Oh, how wonderful.
I'm thankful to her well toned muscles.
Because without them, I might only able to sense halve of her softness.
Haha, don't be jealous my biceps.
You're wonderful too.

"... Ufufu."

I couldn't contain my laughter.

The reason we came out today was to pick presents for the sisters.
But that wasn't the only reason.
A few days ago, Elinalise told me.

"I got the message across.  The three of you go out somewhere, and when the mood is right, find a decent hotel and do the deed."

In other word, that thing.
Today, it's happening.
Enjoy both of them together on one bed.
Ah, I can't wait to find out.
Will I able to satisfy them both?
Ah, I can't wait to find out.

"Rudi, Rudi?"

Sylphy's calling brought me back to my senses.

"You're drooling.  Feeling hungry?"

Roxy wipe my lips clean with a handkerchief.
No good, no good.
Delusions overwhelming.

Of course.
Even though I'm looking forward to the endgame the most.
But I don't plan on neglecting the date in the mean time.
Find great gifts for Norn and Aisha.
And Sylphy and Roxy deserve to enjoy a proper date.

"Sorry, my mouth felt a little lax."

While apologizing I try to regain my focus.

---

We spend a whole day looking for presents, circling the street.

First is the craft district.
The craft district has a lot of magic items.

Of course, the business district has magic items as well.
But the ones available there are all commercialized items, practical and expensive.

Craft district have many inexperienced magic tool creator trainees, so a lot of training works can be found.
None of much use, basically they're all toys.
But, you might find a rare item by a future genius here too.

According to Roxy.
Seems like one of Roxy's classmates studied in the Craft District.
But unfortunately he already left town.

"Although i don't think we'll find anything for the girls here."

Despite what she said, Roxy is busy checking out all the various magic items here.

Of course, I don't think we'll find things Aisha and Norn would like here either.
I'm actually here to find a present for Roxy.

Even though Roxy and I already married, we never even have a wedding reception.
She said wedding ceremonies are unnecessary, but reception is a separate issue.
So my plan is to cerebrate it along with Aisha's and Norn's birthday.

Of course, Roxy doesn't know.
This too is a surprise.
A surprise for one that helps preparing it.

I plan to drop by in secret to tomorrow if Roxy says "I want this" here.
If it's a magic tool, it might be pricy.
Right now, my family income includes Sylphy's and Roxy's wages, royalties from the scroll I got from Nanahoshi, and my share of earnings from Labyrinth.  Four sources in all.
Particularly the last one, including the inheritance from Paul, there're enough there for us to enjoy for 30 years or so.
Not enough to squander as we please, but there're plenty.
Still, you never know when a time to use money comes.
That's why I still avoid being a big spender in everyday life.

But commemorate a wedding is an exception.
Even if Roxy said "I want a Porsche, a Cayenee," I would still buy them for her.
But recently Roxy has always been riding Jirou everywhere, so I don't think she need a new ride.

"This pot that freezes anything when you insert magic might work for Aisha."
"I think Aisha would like something cuter."
"A, true, better if we don't give her anything related with work.."

While Sylphy and Roxy discuss this, I carefully watch Roxy's movement.
Until now, I have yet to see Roxy fawning over anything.
So far she only has been diligantly looking for gifts for Aisha and Norn.
Completely in liue of her own feelings.

"Rudi, what are you staring at?"
"Yes.  I want to lick Roxy all over."
"Please take this seriously.  Wasn't it Rudi's idea to buy presents?"

Of course, I was thinking about Norn's and Aisha's presents too.
But, I thought the stuff here probably aren't to their tastes.
