A Cliché Multiverse Story-Chapter 286 - CH. 291: Did You Miss Me?

The chapter name is just a coincidence. Jk lol. I have been extra productive lately. I don't know the reason. Well, might as well put this hiatus to an end. Be grrrrateful!

***??

Maya came back to herself and found herself in Asahi's arms. What happened wasn't just another fantasy of hers. She had done something she had only read in Leme's ero manga.

'Onii-sama made me climax with his fingers… and I fainted… Fuck me!'

She blew her chance to progress further. With a sigh, she put away the maid dress and snuggled with Asahi. His warm embrace felt just right for Ojou-sama. She was satisfied lying here.

Meanwhile, Rini peeked into the room and raised a brow. The strange scent in the room resembled Maya's body scent. Her sharp nose could discern a person with their scent, though she mostly kept her smell sensors suppressed with mana. This also allowed her to differentiate Ray from other monsters.

She wanted to leave her Onii-san alone with Maya, but she also wanted to join them for a nice nap. Taking a deep breath, she made her decision.

"Maya."

Maya opened her eyes. "Huh? Rini?"

"Can I sleep here with Onii-san?"

"You…"

Maya huffed, her cheeks slowly turning red. Why was it Rini of all people? Her enhanced senses could easily sniff out what happened here.

"Of course. If you promise to never tell anyone about this."

"This?" Rini asked as she tilted her head in ignorance. "What do you mean?"

Maya pulled her cheek. "You know this, you sneaky girl. I know you rub yourself while sniffing Onii-sama's shirt."

Maya's straightforward words provoked a blush on Rini's face. "You didn't have to say it like I'm a pervert..."

Even though Rini looked like a young woman, her gestures were still unchanged. Maya found the gap between her appearance and behavior rather cute.

"I'm not criticizing you, my stupidly sexy imouto. It's normal for girls in puberty to get these urges… let alone a girl with monster blood."

"I will not tell anyone," Rini swore solemnly.

Though Rini was embarrassed for being exposed, she assumed a serious expression. She had let her guard down once, she won't do it twice!

Rini snuggled on Asahi's left side while Maya clung to his right.

After three hours of peaceful sleep, Asahi and the girls exited the realm. The girls teleported from the Yotsuba Mansion to the Stardust Garden.

Shizuka wrapped a gray muffler around his neck. The fabric had several small gaps which weren't present on the ones bought from shops.

"Aa-kun, it's nothing special… but accept this."

"You made it?"

Shizuka gave a soft smile. "Yes. It wasn't too hard."

He hugged her tight to his chest. "You're the best sister ever."

"I'm not the best woman?" Shizuka asked in a playful voice.

"Of course you are. All of you are the best."

Shizuka's gift was only the start.

Nao gave him hand-sewn shorts, which she had worked on during the nights.

Shiori gave him a collection of new light novels in the market. Asahi appreciated the sheer quantity of culture in the covers.

Saeko walked up to him and pulled out a box wrapped in colorful decorations. It was a little heavy for a birthday gift. Asahi skeptically unwrapped his gift.

"A hammer?"

"Not just any hammer, Dear," Shiori said. "She bought it from Hephaestus's workshop for you."

"I heard from Klyscha-sama that you enjoyed crafting with Chiaki. I prepared this gift..."

Asahi stored the hammer in his ring and kissed Saeko's cheeks. "I do. Thanks for the gift. Speaking of Chiaki, where is she?"

He hadn't seen the little fairy for a day or two.

"She is with Ray. Someone had to stay behind with her," Shiori said.

"I see."

He proceeded to receive the gifts.

Aimi's gift was a brand new black dagger forged in Hephaestus's forge. It was extremely sturdy and sharp with no special enchantments.

Leme gave him a gold necklace with a heart symbol. She was most likely inspired by Saya. The two shared a deep sisterly bond.

Grayfia's gift was a simple wristwatch with a black strap. She also wanted to make something like others, but she lacked the time to do so. It was her first time celebrating a birthday as well. In the Underworld, there was only one ceremony related to age—the ascension to the heir position at the age of sixteen.

Yuriko tied a bracelet in his right hand. "This is a good luck charm. Don't lose it, okay?"

"I won't."

"Saya, what's yours?"

Saya flinched at the sudden call. "I-I don't have one."

"Liar. Where is—"

"It's incomplete!" Saya cut off her mother and looked at Asahi. "Give me a week."

"Fine with me."

He was curious about this incomplete gift. He turned to the last three women, who hadn't given him anything.

"Aa-chan."

"Onii-sama…"

Rika was avoiding his gaze while Maya blushed, still not over their earlier act.

"Onii-san," Rini said firmly. "Can you wait for my gift?"

"Sure. You two want time as well?" he asked with a wink. "Rika aside, Maya, you didn't have anything for me?"

"Aa-chan," Rika interrupted him.

Rika walked up to him and shoved a card in his chest. Asahi checked her gift. It was a 'Rika's ten days slavery voucher.' Asahi speechlessly looked at the tanned beauty. She blushed, curling her hair around her finger.

Asahi had never seen Rika fidget like this.

"You know this love and dating thing is new for me… I couldn't decide on something to show my appreciation for Aa-chan. Use my body as a substitute until I find it."

"Take as much time as you want cause I enjoy this sexy body of yours." 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

The maid-style birthday party more than made up for any lack of birthday party. The gifts were just icing on the cake.

"Onii-sama, give me one day!" Maya requested, and he nodded.

"Sure sure. How far did you guys go in the dungeon?"

"Forty-eighth floor," Saeko said. "Closer to forty-ninth in fact."

"Hmm. I'm gonna level up some."

"Asahi-sama," Aimi mumbled, a pleading look in her eyes.

"Come along."

The girls didn't want to leave today, so they stayed in his room.

Asahi and Aimi teleported to the dungeon. A hot gust blew out of the familiar red rocks to give a "warm" welcome. Asahi kicked the wall with a grin.

"You missed me so much, Dungeon-chan?"

The Dungeon roared back at him, and cracks appeared on its walls. The monsters weren't the flame rocks he met last time, but a group of hellhounds and red-scaled lizardmen.

"She is going yandere mode!"

Asahi put away the fragile gifts of his lovers and prepared himself to battle Dungeon-chan's vengeance.
