Chapter 231: Drawing Lots
The water dripped along their body as Miguel sat in a small stool fully naked.
The shower drizzled on their head, behind Miguel was Aaliyah while in front of him was Edith. The two of them took turns to clean Miguel’s body.
Nothing could be hidden as every part of their body could be seen and in full view.
With a smile on their face, Aaliyah and Edith washed Miguel’s whole body peacefully.
Controlling themselves, the shower session ended up just being a shower session and nothing else happened aside from them touching each other’s private parts here and there.
To reciprocate, of course, Miguel also decided to wash their bodies one by one. His fingers roamed and traced every curve and outline.
Their neck, breast, waist, crotch and butt did not escape his fingers.
After a while, the three of them got up, fully refreshed, and with a consolidated understanding of each other’s state of mind.
The remaining awkwardness was slowly being washed away. Perhaps, it would not take long for the three of them to get fully accustomed to the sort of relationship that they had dove into.
It was a good thing that the three of them were quite open minded to begin with.
Miguel was a cultivator and most cultivator’s practiced polygamy. In the Immortal Cultivation World, strength ruled all. And in their minds, it was only right for a strong man to have many lovers. Even an emperor will have his own harem.
As for Aaliyah and Edith, the Wild Beast World also practiced polygamy and it was not prohibited. Although it was not as widespread and common compared to the Immortal Cultivation World that he was previously in, Aaliyah and Edith still came into contact of a lot of people who had their own harem and was practicing a polygamous relationship.
For the two of them, it doesn’t matter if Miguel has a lot of women in the future. As long as they were included in it and they would not get neglected, then it was fine.
With Miguel’s looks, this sort of thing was bound to happen sooner or later. In fact, they felt lucky that they were the first to accompany him, and hence, they would have more time with him compared to his future companions, if he ever added some more.
While it was still just the two of them, the two of them decided to accept the situation as soon as possible and make the most of their time together.
This was their second chance of life anyway. At this moment, only Miguel was the most important thing in their life.
As they laid on the bed, the two women’s hands once again roamed around Miguel’s body.
Although they were able to hold themselves back in the bathroom earlier, the same could not be said in the bed this time around.
As for who initiated it, it was surprisingly Aaliyah this time around.
She steeled her courage and inserted her hands towards Miguel’s crotch. She grasped and stroked his dick, her eyes were closed and her heart fluttering in nervousness.
After she succeeded, her heart fluttered, but this time, it was no longer due to nervousness, but happiness.
And like a domino effect, her actions quickly escalated.
Edith did not want to get left behind and also made her own move. She took Miguel’s hand and guided it toward her pussy. She showed her intentions clearly.
It would be rude if Miguel declined their offer, so, of course, he reciprocated in kind.
After almost two hours of intense activity, the three of them laid on the bed with a satisfied and contented smile on their face.
Aaliyah and Edith were resting on each of his shoulders, their arms resting atop his chest and stomach respectively.
Their faces were smiling and their breathing was relaxed.
After such an intense sexual activity, the two of them immediately went to sleep a few minutes after they were done.
As they just dual-cultivated recently, they did not dual-cultivate this time around and what they did were just pure and intimate sex between lovers.
Sensing their peaceful expressions, a smile also blossomed on Miguel’s face as he also went to sleep a few moments later.
...
The three of them woke up a few hours later with a blooming mood.
It was said that sex could help one relax. It can reduce one’s anxiety and depression.
At this moment, the three of them could testify to the truthfulness of this statement.
They stood up from the bed and went down to the basement to do some exercise.
As he could only summon three summons per day for the time being, he only summoned the Scorching Water Tortoise and allowed the Dark Veil Beast to settle in first.
The Scorching Water Tortoise looked around curiously, searching for the Dark Veil Beast who would always hop on its head every time it got out of the grimoire.
Miguel explained the situation to the tortoise. It seemed to have understood his words as it nodded its head before it went back to it’s usual attitude.
Edith then trained with it, trying to enhance it’s experience and combat strength without Miguel’s order.
Their daily routine consists of such simple matters. However, it was these simple matters that the three of them did not want to disappear.
After Miguel finished daily session of creating the new skill, the three of them went to Maras Tavern for breakfast.
As expected, Maras’ countenance had still not improved. There was still worry plastered on his face and he seemed to have aged even more considerably.
Miguel did not say anything as he thought that he had already said enough. If the twin truly wanted to explore that passage without strength to back them up, then just let them be.
After they ate their breakfast, they made their way to the academy once again.
Yesterday, the top 5 of each stage was decided.
Tomorrow, the champion of each stage will be decided, and the day after, it will be the time to decide the grand champion in each division.
Compared to before, the top 5 competition would be even more intense and tiring.
This time, the competition will run in a double-elimination type competition.
They will be divided into two brackets, the upper and the lower bracket.
The five of them will draw lots, four of which were a pair of each other, while the remaining one was blank.
The two pairs will battle in the upper bracket, and the losers will move down to the lower bracket, in which they will battle again and compete for the finals.
The one who drew the blank will automatically move to the finals of the lower bracket and will wait for the losers in the upper bracket.
The winner of the lower bracket would then face the undefeated participant in the upper bracket tomorrow.
The winner between the two would then be declared as the champion of their own stage, who will eventually compete for the grand champion title.
When Miguel arrived at the academy, he noticed an influx of people compared to yesterday.
Perhaps it was due to the fact that it was already the top 5, there were a lot more people in the audience today.
At a glance, Miguel even noticed more students. He guessed that they should be the juniors and the seniors, who returned to watch the top 5 battle today.
After he sat down, Miguel was approached by Damian.
"Elder Journey, some of the items that you requested have already been obtained. If you wish, you can get them right now in the Red Family. As for the relatively hard to obtain items, the family is still doing it’s best to obtain them for you," he stated.
Hearing that, Miguel nodded his head and was satisfied with their efficiency.
"No need. I’ll collect all of them at the same time after you gather some more from that list. Do tell me if you cannot find the item, though, so I would waste my time waiting for it to be obtained."
Since he needed all of them to be part of the formation, Miguel was not hasty to obtain the materials and items obtained by the Red Family for the time being. He figured that he would collect them all at the same time after a few days.
Damian originally stated before that the relatively hard to obtain materials and items will take a week, so Miguel was willing to wait that much.
"Alright. No problem," Damian nodded his head in understanding and went back to his seat which was rows in front of Miguel.
After a while, Lumier and Casandra went to the stage. The two of them were holding two clay bowls with a little opening at the top. In front of them was the respective top 5 of each stage and division.
Lumier was in-charge of the Martial Artists Division while Casandra was in-charge of the Grimoire Summoners.
In each of the bowls they held was the lots needed to be drawn by the participants.
Lumier went forward and announced, "Freshmen Martial Artists, come forward and draw your lots."
After he was done making the martial artists draw their lots, it was Casandra turn to move forward.
She nodded her head to the participants and beckoned for the freshmen summoners to come forward one by one.
Gasper was one of the freshmen’s top 5. He was at the third of the line so he was the third to pull out a brown paper that was rolled into a cylinder neatly.
After the fifth person pulled out the remaining paper, Casandra nodded her head and smiled, "Alright, open your lots and see who’s your pair, and who will automatically move to the lower bracket finals."
