"Ladies, are you just going to stare like that or come here and give me a hug?"

Hearing this, all five ladies walked towards Lith and hugged him. It was not possible for everyone to hug him all together. Alexandra hugged Lith from the front, Lilith and Lucy from the sides, Arya was at the back and Emilia, she just squeezed herself in beside Arya and hugged Lith in whatever way she could.

A while later, Lith, being in the middle of his five beautiful women, said, "alright, you can let go now."

Everyone broke the hug and backed away a bit.

Lith then said, "It's been what, seven to eight years? Eight years since we last saw each other. How have you all been all this while?"

Arya chuckled hearing it and said, "are you going to talk to us in that condition? You should first freshen up, we'll talk after that."

"Daughter-in-law is right, baby. Freshen up first, we'll talk then." Lilith nodded and agreed with Arya.

"Hmm? What condi" Lith was about to ask this question when he realized he was standing naked in front of the five ladies. His clothes were all gone for some reason.

"Ah, I see." He nodded in understanding. He wasn't embarrassed or anything even though he was standing naked. He had no insecurities regarding his body and judging from how shameless he had gotten while being around his mother and Arya, this thing wasn't enough to get even a slight embarrassment from him.

Lilith snapped her finger after noticing Lith was ready to move out from this cave. Her one snap caused everyone in the cave to vanish from their spots and teleport away.

Soon, all six people teleported out in a brightly lit room.

Looking around, Lith noticed that he was in his mother's bedroom and was back in the Royal Castle in Nightingale.

Lith took a deep breath of the air present here and said, "Such a nostalgic smell."

It had been a very long time since he was in the castle. This was his home and after finally being back here eight years later, a warm feeling swelled up in Lith's heart.

This feeling was the same as the one he used to experience back on Earth. He was away from his home for studies and used to only go back six to eight months later. The feeling he used to have when he reached home was just indescribable and something very nice.

The same feeling he was experiencing now and felt warm in his heart.

Lilith, Lucy, and Alexandra could feel what Lith was feeling. They were close to him and had a blood bond with him. The three felt happy to see Lith being happy and continued to watch over him.

Lith soon shoved aside these thoughts and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

A few minutes later, Lith walked out of the bathroom wearing a red towel.

"Fuiyoooooh~" Arya exclaimed looking at the divine figure of Lith.

His perfectly sculpted body, his toned abs, his wet silver hair that had water dripping down from its end, his perfect chiseled face and his amethyst-like purple eyes were a sight to see for her.

She could swear that she had seen a lot of people, men and women alike, but none came close to looking as good as Lith. Just a simple piece of clothing was enough to bring out all of his handsomeness.

Who would've thought that the pretty boy from eight years ago would end up becoming the hottest man in the world as puberty hit him!

Lilith whistled while looking at Lith and turning to her side, she said to the other ladies, "You like what you see? I made that, fufufu."

It was a bit embarrassing for Lucy to hear her mother compliment herself like that but then again, she couldn't blame her. Her little brother was indeed very hot.

Emilia had a slight blush on her face as she looked at Lith. She was of course very happy to know that she was now dating someone so handsome, but the thing that caused her to blush was the naughty thoughts in her mind.

This innocent and cute angel had been corrupted by Lith and Arya and the thoughts she had now were of her being in bed with Lith. She was imagining herself lying on the bed and Lith, with his divine figure, was on top of her and looking at her with love filled eyes.

They were about to

'No, No, No! What am I even thinking' Emilia panicked internally and stopped herself from thinking anything more.

As for Alexandra, she was already wet just from looking at Lith.

Alexandra felt tingle down there and she had to control herself to the fullest to not just give in to her desires and pounce on Lith.

Noticing all of their reactions, Lith raised an eyebrow in surprise. From Alexandra's thoughts, he could figure out that they were having such reactions just by looking at him. He had no idea he was that handsome.

To understand the situation better and to see why they were acting like that, Lith decided to see himself in a body mirror. He walked towards the one present just a few meters from the bed and as he looked in it, he was shocked!

"Oh damn!" Lith exclaimed out loud as he saw himself in the mirror.

He couldn't help but say that as he was very much surprised to see a Greek God like figure in the mirror. He never expected that he would turn out to be this handsome.

'Puberty sure hit me like a truck. Just how handsome have I become?' Lith thought to himself. 'Oh wait, what am I even thinking I am no narcissist, I shouldn't think like that. But holy hell my body is indeed very amazing.'

After a few more seconds of admiring himself, Lith turned to look at his ladies and said, "You all seem like hungry beasts, ready to pounce onto me at any moment."

Arya nodded. "Yes, that's true. My panties are already wet and only I know how difficult it is to control myself."

Lilith chuckled hearing this and Lucy giggled as well.

Alexandra was too busy trying to control herself and she didn't listen to Arya.

As for Emilia, well she was trying to hide the blush from her face because it was not just Arya and Alexandra who had their panties wet

Lith chuckled and said, "Alright, my pledge of abstaining from sex is over. I can now do it with all of you if I want. But"

"But? Why is there a condition type thing now?" Arya asked.

Lilith nodded and agreed with Arya's question.

"Hear me out first, babe." Lith chuckled again and said.

Arya stopped from speaking and just listened.

Noticing everyone listening attentively, Lith cleared his throat and said, "So I was saying, I can do it with all of you right now if I want, but I won't be doing it."

"All the years of cultivating alone, I've come to realize that I haven't spent a lot of time with all of you individually. I want to give time to everyone and now that I am a Rank 9, I'll be getting married to all of you as well. So there's two options that I'd like to put out."

"First, get married first and then go on dates or second, go on dates first and get married later. What do you guys think is the best one? Do let me know."

Lith said and after finishing, he walked towards the dining table present in the bedroom and sat on a chair near it.

Everyone was silent and pondering over these things and Lith let them be and didn't disturb them.

Lith didn't just want to have a relationship where he simply had sex with everyone. He loved all of them and while cultivating, he understood that he had been neglecting them. He thus decided to take these measures and thought more about their happiness rather than his.

A few minutes of thinking later, like usual, Arya was the one to make up her mind and spoke first.

"I am fine with both options and I am sure mother-in-law, Lucy, and Alexandra are fine with it as well. But look at Emmy there, can you see the internal struggle she is having?" Arya smiled at the end of her sentence while pointing towards Emilia.

"Eh?" Feeling called out so suddenly, Emilia let out a surprised shout.

She was busy currently with thinking of the options Lith gave her. If he went on date with her first without marrying her, he could only do a limited amount of things with her. But if he married her and then they went on date

Emilia couldn't think more about this as it was something naughty and too lewd for her innocent self. Thus she had a hard time thinking about how she would put out her thoughts.

But Arya, who knew Emilia for a long time, could figure out her troubles and told Lith about her.

Looking at Emilia's flushed face, Lith could understand her troubles. He knew that if they went on a date, they wouldn't be able to have sex if they weren't married.

"Arya, I understand what you're getting at. But it's completely fine for me to be honest. I can just have a normal date with Emmy and have a fun time as well. Even without doing anything naughty, things can be good." Lith put out his thoughts.

Hearing this, Emilia was surprised and so was Arya.

"You sure can have a fun time, no doubt. But let's first hear from Emmy herself what she wants. Emmy, don't shy away, we are all family here and he is your soon to be husband. You can speak your mind without worries." Arya said in a calm tone.

Emilia was flustered hearing all of this and also embarrassed to have so much attention. But being the experienced lady she was, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

"I am fine with any of the two options. But, but" Emilia's voice became softer as she continued and her blush was starting to come back.

Emilia became conscious of this and took a deep breath again. She looked at Lith and trying her best to put on a neutral face, she said calmly, "But I would prefer the option where marriage is first and date later more. If the others want to go on a date first, I am fine with it as well"

Emilia's voice once again became softer as she said that.

Lith nodded. He understood her troubles. Looking at the other ladies, he asked, "So does anyone have any objections with having marriage as the first thing and date as the second?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Lith smiled and getting up, he clapped his hands. "Great! Let's get married then!"
