Ch. 9 Experience

Ever since Ela turned 18 Affie and Crys have been very strict about keeping her in her own bedroom and many times during the day they go out of ear shot whilst I'm training and discuss stuff... After about a week of that Ela stop speaking to me and completely stopped having anything to do with me... I felt a little hurt by it but if that's what she wants to do I guess I don't mind... it was a bit awkward at first because she never even left her room when we were on break and she never once looked at me while we were out hunting. I finally got to participate in fights. Ever since Ela got her new class I expected her to get some new skills but she never used any extra skills so nothing much really changed... I still can't level up... But the experience I needed for my quest turned out to be actual experience... Which got weird fast... Because I get a lot of extra exp... also when I started fighting Crys ended up insisting that we form two parties because I simply killed everything in one hit so either I couldn't be allowed to participate or Ela wouldn't be able to fight... So Crys took Ela to hunt separately and Affie stayed with me. I of course had to make a ton of healing potions for them before they left off alone without their healer. So it was just be and Affie for awhile. Affie didn't seem to mind but she definitely seemed less talkative without the others. She'd just happily follow me around and do nothing at all.

It was about a 8 months since they announced it that we all got together in the living room. The first time since she turned 18 that I saw Ela whilst at home. While we don't know whose actually giving birth to the child... I'm not a 100% sure they know entirely either... I think they hit randomize between the two or something... We do get a kinda birth we have to watch... on the floor in front of us while I sat beside Crys and Affie then Ela on the other side we waited for the little one to be born... All staring at the same spot as a bit of light begins to gather and slowly but surely grows until theirs a small baby laying on the floor buck ass naked... Clearly a girl... then her hollow eyes become clear and start looking around the room. Affie and Ela both raced to hold her but Crys just kinda sat there smiling. I didn't have an overwhelming emotion nor reaction I just enjoyed the sight of these three being so happy. After much debate Affie ended up getting to be the first to hold her. Then came Crys much to Elas dissatisfaction then she was handed to Ela who then refused to give her back repeatedly even when Affie or Crys said it was my turn I laughed at the adorable squabble and said it was ok but both Affie and Crys insisted and the little baby ended up in my arms while Ela practically sat on my lap playing with her...

Ela was absolutely furious when the baby refused to even look at her as she just stared up at me making me feel very uncomfortable. We sat like that for a few hours... Before Crys insisted on putting the little girl to bed and I went back to my own room... I've had a room of my own since I was 12... I was genuinely surprised when Crys seemed to be deeply offended by the idea as for once it was Affie that was fighting for a reasonable cause... Affie said that it's unfair to Ela that she was kicked out at 12 if I'm not and Crys for once didn't have a good argument despite never actually winning an argument she was always on the side of reason but her only argument this time was she liked cuddling with me. Which made Ela blush and Affie laugh out loud... I didn't have much of an opinion... After much discussion they decided on also finally ending the breast feeding thing that went on way way to long by any standard... And end it that day... Right after doing it once more... Which they instructed me to do what I always did while they almost obviously masturbated and made out... Which... Was somewhat awkward for me... and despite it being called the last time... They insisted on doing it twice once in the morning and once in the evening even though all three of us participated in the act in both scenarios...

After all that weirdness all the relationships in the house became pretty normal. I mean I haven't seen Ela since I turned 12... and I'm seeing her for the first time when the new sister is born in months... but no one brings it up weirdly... She's always either in her room or in the dungeon with Crys... As for Affie and Crys I still see them around the house on the days off but most my time is spent with Affie before I spent the night training in my room... Which weirdly locks from the outside every night at a specific time... Affie and Crys said it's for my own safety... So I spend all night training despite the growth face kinda locking me in a stage where I cannot gain any stats and cannot level up any skills... can't even gain a skill... So it's mosh just cause it's something to do... While I could also sleep and I do from time to time it's also in no way necessary as ever since my mana body became unique I stopped needing sleep and am never tired in any way. Most my training is just habitual... I did nothing but train for so long why stop? I'll also need to do more again soon... Skills don't level themselves up after all...
