Mia was the first to wake up that morning. Her tired eyes scanned the room and found four sets of clothes folded neatly on a nearby desk. She looked down to see an unfamiliar yet nostalgic sight. Adeliza’s head, asleep on her chest, just like when they were training. The fond memory made her smile until she tried to move and felt something pressed up against her inner thigh.

She peeked under the covers and found that everyone sharing the bed at the moment had been stripped and Adeliza was currently touching everyone in a way. Each of her legs was between someone else’s her left leg being between Mia’s and her right between Lili’s.

At her stirring Adeliza woke up and smiled at her.

“Morning Mia, did you sleep well?”

“I did.”

She tried to respond indifferently but the red in her face betrayed her.

“Ha, I knew your mind regressed. You couldn’t handle the truth and now even something at this level bothers you?”

“Well… it’s just… um…”

“Just what? We’re all girls here. What could happen?”

Adeliza began teasing her, holding her close with both arms around her neck, leaning her face in close and pressing her nose against hers.

“What are you imagining us doing I wonder.”

{um…}

Kathy began her face dyed red. Her hands over her face and her body curled up and turned away.

{Please don’t ask questions you already know the answer to.}

At the unexpected voice, Adeliza turned her attention from the frazzled Mia to the embarrassed Kathy, giving Mia a chance to escape. Adeliza wrapped Kathy up in her arms and legs causing confused sounds to come from her startled lips.

“I knew reviving your programming was a good idea. You’re just so cute when you have a face to express it.”

{Ma-master please stop toying with my tiny heart.}

As she messed around with her Mia got dressed and left the room to get breakfast. Lili followed shortly after her face red in a mix of anger and embarrassment. A short while after Kathy and Adeliza emerged. Adeliza’s face was pressed up against Kathy’s as she was embracing her from behind. They were wearing their clothes from the day before again.

Kathy kept trying to look away, but Adeliza kept drawing her attention. During breakfast, Kathy was forced to sit in Adeliza’s lap but not for lack of chairs. That morning Adeliza fed Kathy like a small child. Lili was a bit perturbed at the sight but couldn’t oppose her. Mia found the sight somewhat eerie as the jovial face of the woman teasing the much smaller girl seemed like it would be better suited to a girl fawning over a tiny animal.

Once Kathy had eaten her fill she got up and ran away in a huff apparently too embarrassed to continue on. Slamming the door to Mia’s room and loudly letting her body fall against the door. An audible but slightly muffled sigh ensued. Mia looked over to her.

“Master…”

“Ah, are you jealous? Feeling neglected perhaps? Feel free to sit on my lap. I’ll always welcome you with open arms.”

She patted her thighs invitingly with a joking smile between her ears.

“No, it’s not that… why are you treating that girl like that.”

“Kathy used to be useless now that she’s started moving on her own, I’ve got to make sure she keeps moving. And what better way to get her to move than in a way I enjoy.”

|If you want disobedience why not give me that order? |

“Because the problem with your programming is a complete lack of personality. The obedience is fine. I rather prefer it.”

Adeliza began eating her breakfast as Lili and Mia stared at her. Adeliza ate in silence for a few minutes. A minute after their plates were empty Kathy left the room and gave Adeliza a hug. Mia and Lili were surprised at the sudden action, but Adeliza accepted it gracefully.

{I’m sorry I ran away but don’t embarrass me in front of the others.}

“I’m sorry but you’re just too cute. I can’t help myself when you’re so adorable.”

Mia cleared her throat.

“Master. Since my amour’s arrived can you help me make the adjustments?”

“Sure. You think you can help with it, Kathy?”

{Y-yes if you’re ok with it.}

She turned her gaze towards Mia who nodded quietly. Kathy hid her smile behind her hands, and such was how their day began. After their late breakfast, they left the kitchen to find Mia’s parents had already begun their work for the day baking bread for the locals and travellers who’d buy it.

After they left, they met the commander at the barracks who handed Mia her armour and told her not to make it too vulnerable to attacks like the last hero. Adeliza simply shrugged and laughed it off. In exchange, Adeliza offered the man the book containing all the knowledge the elves had about the war as an apology for dying in his arms.

Mia took the box excitedly and went to the nearest blacksmith to ask to borrow his workshop and tools. The old dwarven man began staring the girls down as Adeliza gave a similar stare at his shop. Adeliza seemed unimpressed and in anger, the dwarf refused to let the hero borrow his forge.

“Ha! With such shoddy workspaces no wonder you’ve not left the bronze age yet.”

“Oi, lassy I donna care if you be friends with the heroine of this age them’s fighting words.”

“I could build a better workshop with my eyes closed.”

“Wanna bet your tiny polearm you can’t?”

“Please, this was made in a proper forge, you think anything you have can even hope to match its value. It could probably split your Iron anvil if I was blind drunk and swung it halfheartedly.”

“Are you saying that anyone could swing it and split the anvil?”

“Anyone who can lift it at least.”

“Then I’ll wager my best hammer she can’t.”

He pointed at Kathy.

“I bet her virginity she can.”

She also pointed at Kathy.

{Wait… master.}

She handed her the halberd.

“Don’t worry Kathy I believe in you. Don’t mess up.”

With a gentle pat on the backside, Kathy was placed squarely into the centre of their bet. A small group had gathered outside at the commotion and were watching in curiosity as Kathy stood frozen and afraid.

{Wait… what do I get if I win…}

“I’ll let you ride around on my shoulders for the rest of the day.”

With an uncharacteristic look of determination, she spread her feet out to a more solid stance held the Halberd perpendicular to the ground set her sights on the anvil and slammed it, blade first, into the big chunk of iron on the ground. A horrid screeching filled the air as the metal scraped against metal and sparks flew from the sight of the anvil being cut clean in two.

The thin axe head of the halberd sticking out of the ground between the two halves of the anvil sat motionless. The crowd was breathless. With the sound of the anvil collapsing on either side of the polearm’s blade the crowd began cheering. Adeliza smiled at the dwarf from ear to ear. He began grumbling to himself in gnomish and tossed the hammer at her head. She caught it deftly and replied to him in his own tongue, “Much obliged.”

Kathy wasted no time and immediately hopped up on Adeliza’s shoulders like a child. She handed Kathy both the hammer and the halberd and walked out to a more undeveloped part of town where there was an empty space among the army tents and began chanting.

The dwarf had followed her and was surprised to see her actually building a workshop with her eyes closed. They watched in wonder as she weaved multiple spells to build walls of earth and support them with quick-growing vines and leaves. She unearthed clay stones and coal which began to coalesce in their own areas in the slowly forming building.

An anvil of diamond sprang up from the earth, dead centre, and the forge in the back was large and had an apparatus attached to it the dwarf didn’t recognize.

“What’s that?”

“Oh? You’re still here? You’ve been working the forge for how long and you don’t even know the most basic of basics? I’ll explain it to you in terms even a child can understand. You step on this part here and it fans the flames. The flames get hotter, and I can work metals stronger than bronze.”

The Dwarf left angrily, and Mia took out her armour and set it on a nearby workbench. Adeliza got to work sketching out the materials she had and coming up with something more suited to Mia, as what the capital has provided was exceptionally plain.
