"Strange."
Sitting in a comfortable chair, Kai murmured as he pulled his hands away from his keyboard. Sage, perched on Kai's shoulder, murmured in an equally puzzled tone.
"It's certainly strange, master. This isn't the typical Skeptic style we know, and everything is too 'clean'… I don't like the smell of this at all."
"Neither do I. Launch a formal investigation into Detnerat and all its associates. No matter how much we have to spend, we need to find out what these bastards are planning." Kai ordered in a firm tone. The beautiful fairy nodded resolutely before responding.
"Right away, master."
As holographic screens began to appear around Sage, Kai glanced at the clock on his computer, which showed he'd been working for 7 hours, meaning that in reality not even an hour had passed. Curious, Kai began typing on his computer, and soon several screens revealed a large amount of data about his physical state.
"Things are going better than I expected… I'm sleeping better than ever, haha." Looking at his data, Kai couldn't help but comment, amused. Sage laughed softly before speaking in a playful tone.
"That's because it's your perfect dream, master. One where you can work."
"Are you calling me a workaholic?" Kai turned to look at the tiny, beautiful fairy, who met his eyes before responding in a playful tone, somehow resembling a little cat.
"I'll only say that not many people in the world would be so excited to be able to work on their dreams, fufu."
Kai rolled his eyes at the playful fairy's comment before replying in a slightly annoyed tone.
"I'm simply a productive man with many responsibilities. But I have hobbies too; now that I'll have more free time, I'll be able to enjoy them."
"What do you want to do, master? Make swords or fix cars…? Because those are definitely hobbies that don't seem like jobs at all." Sage spoke back with a mischievous smile on her face. Kai snorted in annoyance and put his hands back on the keyboard as he retorted.
"I'm going to get back into building scale models."
"Fufu, I'll look up some interesting ones online."
Sage replied in a playful tone before giving Kai a kiss on the cheek. Immediately afterward, the beautiful fairy flew over to land, lying down on top of Kai's head, where she began working, visibly happy and relaxed. For his part, Kai let out a defeated sigh before pressing a keyboard shortcut that opened what appeared to be a development environment whose icon was a striking golden card.

…
"He's already been working a whole day…?"
Sitting in front of the medical capsule, Nemuri asked as she looked at Keiko's screen, where letters could be seen scrolling across a black background at a terrifying speed. Keiko, who was watching the information with total concentration and occasionally typing at great speed, suddenly closed her eyes and shook her head a couple of times before looking at Nemuri and answering.
"…Actually it's been more than a day, 33 hours to be exact; it won't be long before he wakes up."
Hearing her, Nejire—who was on the floor with Tomoko and Ryuko making origami to kill time—suddenly lifted her head and asked, full of excitement.
"He's going to wake up?!"
"Yes, we agreed he'd stop exactly at 36 hours, or 4 hours for us, so he'll wake up in about 20 minutes, and so far all his data is even better than expected, which means this trial was a resounding success."
Keiko explained with a calm smile. Nejire and Tomoko jumped up at once and looked at each other before nodding seriously and running out of the medical room at the same time.
"What are they…?"
Momo murmured, bewildered, as she watched Nejire and Tomoko rush off. But at that moment, Shino and Ryuko—who looked at each other in confusion—suddenly had a flash of realization and looked down at the hero costumes they were still wearing.
"We'll be right back." Shino remarked with a smile before turning around with Ryuko and running out of the medical room after Nejire and Tomoko.
Understanding what it was about, Yumiko looked down at herself for a few moments before standing up and looking at the others. At that moment, Keiko commented in a cheerful voice.
"I'm going to shower right here and keep an eye on Kai; hurry up."
"Fufu, we'll be right back."
Nemuri got up from her seat and walked out of the room with Yumiko, at which point Keiko turned to look at her beautiful daughter. Momo looked back at her mother and remarked with a confident smile.
"I already took a bath; I'll change into comfortable pajamas while you shower."
"Make something 'attractive,' because the others aren't going to waste any time." Keiko remarked with a warm, motherly smile. Momo nodded before responding as she subtly stroked the ring on her finger.
"I know; I'll create something that suits me."
"Fufu, be right back."
Keiko laughed, somewhere between proud and amused, then walked toward the shower in the medical room, at which point a smile full of nostalgia formed on her face. Her beautiful daughter was growing up faster than she ever could have imagined—something that filled her with contradictory emotions oscillating between pride, nostalgia, and loss.
Meanwhile, Momo, unaware of her mother's conflicting emotions, used her quirk to create an elegant red silk pajama set consisting of shorts and a camisole. After confirming there were no cameras in the dressing area with her phone, Momo began to change, but upon seeing her plain pink panties, a slight blush formed on her face. At the same time, from her exposed hand, a small piece of fabric began to emerge from her bare skin.
…
…
…
"Alright, Sage, time's up, we're leaving."
Hearing the alarm he'd set on his computer go off, Kai ordered in a calm voice as he stretched in his chair. The beautiful fairy nodded calmly from atop Kai's head, and as the holographic screens around her vanished, she commented in a serene voice.
"Right away, master."
As she spoke, Sage placed her delicate hands on Kai's head, and soon the entire space began to lose its color and life, finally transforming into a completely dark space.
…
Inside the medical capsule, Kai took a deep breath and then began to move his fingers and toes, and after a few moments, his eyes fluttered slightly until they finally began to open. As the medical capsule started its basic examinations, Kai brought his hand to his head and looked around, feeling a little dizzy.
Around him, Kai could see 8 women of incalculable beauty, with faces without a single flaw in sight, as if they had hundreds of beauty filters over them. Lowering his gaze, Kai could see the beautiful women wearing comfortable yet alluring silk pajamas of different colors that accentuated their feminine figures—a sight that inevitably made him swallow hard.
"Are you feeling okay, darling? Does your head hurt?"
At that moment, the capsule began to open, and a beautiful blonde—the one with the smallest breasts, but who nonetheless embodied an irresistible sensuality—approached and asked in a soft, worried voice.
"Yeah… I'm fine, just a little dizzy…" Kai murmured before shaking his head. But at that moment, Kai felt a warm hand on his crotch and a seductive voice that sent a shiver through him resonating near his ear.
"Seems like you're a little more than dizzy… Do you need help with this, honey? It looks painful~"
But right at that moment, the sound of a quick slap rang out, and as the seductive Nemuri let out a groan, Momo spoke in a serious voice.
"Don't bother him right now, Nemuri. Kai isn't feeling well; look at his eyes."
Hearing Momo, the girls looked into Kai's eyes, and there they could see how his pupils were dilating and contracting in rapid succession. Right at that instant, Tomoko looked at Sage—who likewise seemed confused—rose into the air, and spoke urgently.
"Sage!! Use the angel on Kai, he doesn't look good!"
"Don't be alarmed. It's nothing out of this world. It's just that the transition between dream and reality is stronger than I imagined. I'll have to make some adjustments to the ability to make it smoother…" Kai explained in a slightly pained voice. At that moment, Yumiko pulled Kai's head to bury it in her enormous chest and asked, visibly worried.
"What, does something hurt, sweetheart? Do you want me to give you a little massage?"
"Nothing really hurts… It's just that I feel like my self-perception and self-control are a bit clumsy right now…"
Kai murmured with an expression of slight pain, as if he were holding himself back with all his strength from doing something. At that moment, Shino looked at her beloved and quickly stepped forward and embraced him intimately, then whispered into his ear with sultry intent.
"Are you trying to hold back? Why? Here we're all yours, and you can do whatever you want with each and every one of us~"
Kai swallowed audibly upon hearing Shino's seductive voice. In that instant, a mischievous smile formed on Nejire's face, and she quickly took Kai's hands to guide them beneath her and Yumiko's pajamas.
Hearing Kai swallow as a predatory light began to appear in his eyes, the girls licked their lips seductively and took a step forward. But right at that instant, several sounds of plastic striking skin rang out, and soon the voices of Keiko and Momo resonated in unison.
""Stop right there!""
"What happened?"
Nemuri couldn't help but ask with a frown as she gently rubbed her backside. Although she loved when her Kai spanked her, now that someone else had done it, she once again realized how important love was in intimacy. With her beloved, she felt only pleasure and passion; with others, only pain and anger.
"Today there's going to be nothing more than a kiss!"
Momo announced in a serious voice as she looked at the sulking girls and her beloved Kai, who looked like he was suffering trying to keep his sanity. Keiko nodded and added with similar seriousness.
"It's for Kai's sake. He spent 36 hours working non-stop inside his mind, trying out a skill for the first time. Today nothing is more important than doing all the relevant medical examinations; we have to make sure the ability is safe, and we have to do it now. You all know him well enough to know what will happen if he does it on his own."
Hearing Keiko, the frowns on the girls relaxed, and soon they looked at one another. At that moment, Tomoko took the lead and gave her beloved an affectionate kiss on the lips before speaking in a slightly disappointed voice yet laden with unmistakable love.
"I don't want to wait, but your health is more important, so I'll do it. I love you."
"I love you, darling…"
Ryuko declared her love before starting a tender kiss—something all the girls did one by one before pulling away from Kai with sad, unsatisfied expressions. At the end, Kai closed his eyes to begin meditating, and the capsule closed once more.
…
…
…
After about 30 minutes, Kai let out a long sigh inside the medical capsule and opened his eyes, which once again looked clear and sharp. Recovering from that strange mental state he'd woken up in, Kai quickly communicated with his trusty assistant through their mental connection.
[Did you record everything that happened to me, Sage?]
[Yes, master, but I was affected too, so there may be errors.] Sage replied in a serious, professional voice. Kai soon ordered with seriousness.
[We'll review it anyway; I have a feeling that strange sensation of misalignment between my mind and body is something I should pay attention to.]
[Understood, master, I'll draft a complete report.] Sage replied with similar seriousness. For his part, Kai made the capsule open and commented with a calm smile as he looked at his worried girlfriends around him.
"Don't worry, everything's fine now. The ability needs some adjustments, but it works very well."
"…It's better for the capsule to keep checking you, sweetheart." Keiko remarked in a worried tone. Kai, seeing the same concern on the faces of his sexy girlfriends in pajamas, smiled and spoke in a warm voice.
"Then let's do this; why don't we have a movie night right here? I'll stay in the capsule, and we'll build our little fort like in the garden."
"You're a genius, Kai-chan!!" Nejire exclaimed with shining eyes before lunging to kiss her Kai with passion. Tomoko pushed Nejire aside to kiss her beloved, after which she announced loudly.
"I'll bring the mattresses!"
"I'm going with you!" Nejire added with visible excitement.
"I'll bring the blankets!" Ryuko kissed her beloved before announcing. Momo did the same and announced with a smile.
"I'll handle the popcorn."
"I'll bring the drinks." Yumiko remarked with an amused smile before giving Kai a quick kiss on the lips. Shino also kissed her beloved and commented cheerfully.
"I'll take care of the projector."
"Then Keiko and I will handle darkening everything." Nemuri commented as she put her arms around Kai's neck and soon started her kiss. After Nemuri, Keiko finally gave Kai a passionate kiss and commented with a happy smile.
"Let's get to work."
For his part, Kai, upon seeing his beautiful girlfriends work quickly and efficiently, managing to turn the medical room into an improvised theater, felt his chest fill with infinite emotions, and a huge smile formed on his face. Soon, he couldn't contain himself and ended up verbalizing the feeling that welled up from the depths of his being.
"Thank you… I love you from the bottom of my heart; you make me the happiest man in the world."
Hearing the declaration full of sincerity and love, the girls paused their movements for a few moments, but soon they all turned to look at their beloved and jumped to embrace him with all their strength, all exclaiming in unison.
"""I love you!!"""
