Iris and Cai hugged Lux as they all sat on the couch together.
They listened to him as he recounted everything that happened in Elysium during the ti that they weren't together.
They felt sad upon hearing Gaap's death and felt indebted to him for the latter had sacrificed his life to save their fiance from death.
When he was about to tell them about Aina, Lux felt conflicted if he should tell them about his past life.
Although he didn't mind letting them know about it, he felt that it would just complicate things. However, he was also certain that Iris and Cai wouldn't think much about it.
He also wasn't sure whether the two Gods who were protecting Elysium and Solais would allow him to speak about matters that should only be known to the Gods.
As if knowing what he was thinking, he heard Eriol's voice inside his head.
The God of Gas told him that he shouldn't share this kind of information with others.
Since he had already been given a warning, he decided to tweak his story about Aina a bit and told them that the two of them had developed feelings with each other during their encounters in Elysium.
Although Iris and Cai felt that the Half-Elf was not telling them everything, they decided to trust him and accept his love for Aina.
However, when he told the two about how he and the four Dragon Ladies beca lovers, Cai wasn't able to stop her lips from twitching.
"An Aphrodisiac?" Cai looked at the Half-Elf in disbelief. "How strong was it?"
"Very strong," Lux replied with a straight face. "Before I got hold of my senses, I had already done the deed."
Iris smiled, while Cai arched an eyebrow. Both of them knew that Lux was soone who took relationships seriously, so they could understand why he would want to take responsibility after doing what he did.
"One Dwarf Princess, and two Dragon Princesses," Iris said with a smile. "I don't know if I should praise you or pinch you for making these girls your lovers."
(E/N: Agarthian Princess is next :P)
"Well, after observing Valerie, Ali, and Ari when we visited your Guild Headquarters, I could already tell that it was only a matter of ti before you crossed that line," Cai comnted. "I just didn't expect that it would be this soon."
Iris nodded her head in agreent. "Well, they are all beautiful girls, and they also have status. I don't mind calling them my sisters."
"Still… there is a possibility that you made two of them pregnant huh," Cai narrowed her gaze. "I think that's unfair. Iris and I should have been first in the pecking order.
"I asked you to get pregnant in the Abyss, but you refused . You told to wait, but you completely went wild with those two Dragon Princesses. Isn't this discrimination?"
Lux could only smile bitterly because Cai had a point. However, if given the choice, he still didn't want Iris and Cai to conceive his children due to the threat of the destruction of Solais.
"I know that it was a selfish thing to do," Lux said. "I plead guilty. But I hope that you and Iris will not ask to make the two of you pregnant. Right now, Solais is not a very stable place.
"I know that the Rowan Tribe, Barbatos Academy, and the Six Kingdoms are already doing their best to secure their own territories in Elysium in order to migrate as a last resort. But, until we are certain that no harm will co to the two of you, let us put our baby-making sessions on hold, shall we?"
Iris and Cai frowned, but they also understood where Lux was coming from. Alexander and Maximillian had already told them about the migration plan to escape from the miasma, currently on the borders of the Six Kingdoms, that was starting to slowly but surely encroach upon the territories of the Six Kingdoms.
After an in-depth examination, they estimated that they only had three years at the minimum and four years at the maximum until the lands of the Six Kingdoms beca uninhabitable.
Because of this, they were rushing to build their cities in Elysium in preparation for the mass migration.
This was also why Aina's parents decided to take a gamble and founded their own Kingdom in Elysium while they still had the ti to do it.
They no longer felt safe in Solais, so migrating was the only option left to them.
"Very well, we will listen to you," Iris said. "Three years. After three years, we will no longer hold back, okay?"
"I hope you don't go back on your word when that ti cos," Cai stated. "We have already waited long enough."
Lux nodded. "Understood."
"How long will you be staying here?" Iris asked.
"A week or two," Lux replied. "Aurelia also wanted to et the two of you. So if both of you are free, can you accompany to the Crystal Palace to et her?"
"Okay," Iris replied in a heartbeat.
"I want to see her as well," Cai smiled. "To think that the Dragon Prince was actually a Dragon Princess. I have to confirm for myself if it's real or not."
Lux shook his head helplessly. "You think I am making things up?"
"Of course not," Cai replied. "But I've seen Aur, and I find it hard to believe that he is actually a she. There must be a reason why she is hiding her gender, don't you think? Did she tell you the reason why?"
Lux pondered for a bit. Truth be told, he didn't ask Aur this question because he didn't want to pry in her privacy.
However, he had an idea why she was hiding her gender.
But unless he personally heard the reason from her, he decided to not make any premature assumptions at this point in ti.
"I'm sure that she has her reasons," Lux stated. "But I won't ask this from her. If she feels that she is comfortable enough to share his reason with , I'm sure that she will tell about it."
Cai thought for a bit before nodding her head.
Aur had her secrets, just like she had her own secrets. Since that was the case, she would also not ask her questions that might make her feel uncomfortable.
After they finished their discussion, Iris and Cai pinned the Half-Elf down on the bed.
They had a lot of catching up to do, and they would make sure to remind the Half-Elf that he still had two fiancees who loved him very much.
