After that chat with Cali, Jahi and I had a bit more of an in depth talk on what it ant exactly and how far I was - and how far she was willing to - going to go with this, which just had us co to one agreed upon conclusion.
I could run a more ’up scale, fancy and proper’ business where the main product was so sort of pleasure, all while dressing myself up in the sort of things that would attract the attention needed in said sort of place, but I would never actually be involved in anything.
Obviously, of course, but on top of the very clear warning that I was never to get close to a custor Jahi also made it clear that she didn’t want to even entertain most custors to begin with, just trading words here or there if necessary.
On top of all of this she also reminded that this was sothing that was going to need the agreent from our other two wives as well, though on that end I was confident that Anput would be intrigued enough while Leone would see the necessity of it.
Besides, there was the promise of ’personal shows’ and the like that could get them all to co to terms with this, but it wasn’t even like we were going to be doing this anyti soon since we didn’t even have the first arrivals just yet.
Speaking of, the Clans - or more specifically Belian - sent another letter informing us of their approximate arrival, which would apparently include a handful of rchants that would want to look around and ask us a few questions as well as a pair of ’contacts’ that we could make use of between us and the Clans.
The rchants would help handle all of our wants while the contacts would help us fulfill our needs, so long as we were aware of the ’price’ that would co along with it; there were a few things that we were promised we wouldn’t have to worry about asking for, but Belian also made it abundantly clear that there was going to be a line we could cross when asking for things.
I was sowhat intrigued in figuring out just where that line was located and how close I could get to it before crossing it, but I also wasn’t going to risk anything just yet, not when we were dealing with soone like Belian.
Starting out deeper into debt would be a horrible move for us, though the thing was I had no idea just how much money we were able to produce on a daily basis since the materials we harvested could be used by both Anput and Leone to create new things.
All of the potions and salves would fetch a nice bit of coin on their own while all of Anput’s gear would get basic enchantnts from to then be sold at a premium, so although I was worried about the idea of debt I don’t know if I actually needed to worry about it that much...
But why risk sothing when you can just completely avoid that risk altogether, right?
So I drafted up a list of things we needed, things we wanted and also took a look into what we had on hand to barter away, all while also trying to guesstimate just how much we could potentially bring in through any products we sold.
The problem with that was I didn’t know how low I could go without being stupid for lowballing everything nor how high I could go without being stupid for overpricing everything drastically, so that thought exercise was canned rather quickly.
With that I didn’t have much to do in these remaining days besides just give my help wherever it was needed, continue doing my chores and also enjoying so alone ti to bask in the sun and read so books or practice.
I was also being asked quite regularly to help relieve my wives of their urges whenever they required it, and obviously that ant I had little free ti at all since all three of them were always raring to go.
Even Leone kept locked in her laboratory one day for three hours as she just used incessantly, which shocked all of us since she usually couldn’t muster the ’courage’ to do that; we later found out she concocted a stamina potion and was technically under the influence, but that didn’t matter to at all~!
Each day just ticked by slowly but surely, leaving feeling a bit conflicted since on one hand the peace was incredible and super refreshing, but on the other ti just seed to be slipping away as every single day started blending together into this amazing, relaxing stream of nothingness.
Honestly I couldn’t complain, and even when there were noticeable monts of either irritation at one of my wives or one project or another giving a bit of a beating I still felt like this was so of the best ti I had ever spent.
That earlier feeling crept back with a vengeance because of that, and sadly I was proven right... just not in the way that I had been thinking when I first started feeling ’odd’.
My plight ca not as a Fiend or so horde of monsters, nor as a group of bandits that wanted to ransack us; no weather phenonon swept across the plains nor did our house suddenly collapse...
Instead, with the arrival of the giant caravan of people coming to settle into our new city, I saw a certain Demoness that I really didn’t want to see, one that had gritting my teeth as actual anger took over.
That long leather coat that hid dozens of blades strapped to that lithe body was all too familiar, let alone the arrogant, haughty smirk that remained on her face even now...
Leading the caravan towards our new ho was the red skinned bitch herself, Satanya, aning that Belian must have decided to further groom the insufferable Demoness for his spot by having her co here and start shoring up the relations between the Clans and us.
