*****

Needless to say, after I told my girlfriends that I gave Christina a kiss, they severely 'punished' me that night. I got creampied so hard I swear I could have gotten pregnant 20 times over with that amount of semen.

Regardless, the following days were relatively peaceful. Christina and Emy kept on dueling, because they both wanted an equal opponent to train. Though Emy still won the majority of the matches.

So roughly two more weeks have passed.

My portal magic has progressed pretty decently, I'd say. Around 20 Linked portals can be summoned simultaneously, though the distances between me and the portals, and the portals to each other did not increase by much.

The size of them though, did change dramatically, back then, the length of each portal was like, half the length of Emy's cock. But now it has doubled, so roughly around 30cm in diameter, I'd say.

For illusion magic, I am now able to change pretty much all of my figure at the same time, which is very convenient. And also, the projection duration has increased to a few minutes, enabling me to show my girlfriends some short clips or animations.

They especially loved cartoons, like 'Tom & Jerry', or 'Oggy and the cockroaches'.

And today, it is August 8th, my 18th birthday. From the early morning, I got a lot of happy birthdays from both the servants and the S.D squad members as well. Even Stephen gave me a free dessert ticket for a month, limited to the restaurants inside the academy, of course.

I also received a huge box shipped to me from our homeland, it's my parents. In the one of the letters attached to the box, dad said that he didn't really know what to send, so he just threw in a ton of bullets, diamond and lapis tips, gunpowder and so on.

Which is exactly what I need right now: A restock, I'm kinda low on gun supplies right now. And I didn't expect some kind of special gift either, each elf will have like, hundreds, if not thousands of birthday over the course of their life, so finding a special thing for each birthday is a hassle.

Mom, on the other hand though, she sent me three full package of condoms and a bunch of skincare products, with a message to 'not go overboard'. I'm sorry mom, I didn't use a single condom since the beginning, hell, I didn't even touch the package that you gave me before coming here.

Anyway, Emy and Liana said that we should do a small party, with Christina and Anastasia as well. But they also told me that I should stay inside the house and leave the preparations to them.

So here I am, practicing illusion magic and watching anime at the same time. They said that the party is going to be in the evening, and now it's almost 6 P.M already. I wonder when they will arrive.

*click*

Oh, here they are.

''Welcome back.''

''We're ready.'' Liana said, walking towards the round table that I'm sitting at, holding several bags in her hand.

''Pardon the intrusion~'' Anastasia is walking behind Liana.

''Hi, Sylvia.'' Followed by Christina, carrying a big box.

''Well, sit down first, I think Emy is almost done.'' I said.

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

After they have settled down on the chairs, Liana started to take all kinds of food out of the bags and place them on the table. Shortly after, Emy came out of the kitchen with a big cake on her hands.

''That looks good~'' I commented.

The cake is half chocolate, half vanilla, she said, with my face and name drawn on the top layer of frosting. And of course, 18 candles, for 18 years have passed since my birth.

Emy places the cake in the middle of the table and sits on my right, Liana is on my left right now. Emy then uses fire magic to light all the candles up.

''We're all good?'' Liana asked, to which we nod in agreement. ''Alright then, three, two, one...''

'''' Happy Birthday!! ''''

*clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*

''Thanks.'' I said, smiling.

''Now, blow the candles, Sylvie.'' Liana pats me on the back.

*whoosh*

I blow out all the candles, then close my eyes to make a wish. Now then, what should I wish for this year... Mhmm... I've already wished all the things I ever wanted before, so let's just wish for everyone's health.

Opening my eyes, I could see Christina and Anastasia looking at me from the other side.

''Happy birthday, Sylvia!'' Anastasia said cheerfully.

''Happy birthday, my love.'' Christina said, cupping her chin.

''Thanks... Let's get to eating, then, I'm starving already.'' I smile awkwardly.

''Let me cut the cake.'' Emy proposed.

-----

''Right, I've bought present.'' Anastasia said, pulling out a small box from her pocket after swallowing a piece of the cake. ''Open it.''

Inside the box is a beautifully crafted golden bracelet, this energy... Is it divine magic?

As if she has noticed my thought, Anastasia started to explain. ''This is the prototype healing bracelet that I made, it's not quite to the level of the ones made by the church professionally, but it should still provide pretty decent healing.''

''Isn't this... very rare?'' I asked.

''Well, yes, it took me quite a while to make this. But... I think we're good friends, so it's worth the effort. Come to me every now and then, and I'll recharge it for you.''

This... Is actually insanely precious, it's very hard to enchant healing magic, so there's only around a hundred of this being made every year. Most of them can't even get to the market. And to think she put that much effort into it...

This girl is so sweet!

(*´∀`*)

''...Thanks! Anastasia, I love you!'' I smile at her.

''N-No problem...'' She blushes lightly, then turns her head away.

Seeing this, Christina lets out a chuckle. ''Right, I have a present for you too.''

She opens the big box that she bought in earlier, and puts the present on the table before me.

''You said before that you like stargazing, so I bought you a telescope. I specifically ordered this one from our craftsmen, I hope you like it.''

''Woah~ It looks so cool!'' I exclaimed. ''I've always wanted telescope, but never really got the chance to own one. I love it!''

''I'm glad.'' Christina smiles brilliantly, then she turns to my girlfriends, as if expecting them to go next.

''Ah, we'll give our presents later, for now, let's play some games?'' Liana said, grinning mischievously.

''...Alright?''

What, what is that look?

-----

So now we're playing the Ousama game, Christina prepared the chopsticks for this one.

Mhmm, I'm not the king this time. Unlucky.

''Yay~ I'm the king.'' Anastasia said excitedly. ''Then... Number three and four, please hug each other!''

'''' Ugh. '''' Christina and Emy frown at the same time.

Reluctantly, they both stand up and hug each other.

*clap* *clap* *clap*

''Good, good.'' Anastasia said.

Now onto the second round. ...Yes! I'm the king.

''Oh, I'm the king.'' I said. ''Hmm, number one and three, kiss each other on the cheek.''

Time for some hot kissing scenes. Let's see... Ah, it's Liana and Emy, I mean, I've not seen them kissing a whole lot, so this is a good opportunity.

They both stand up, and then started to kiss each other on the lips casually, exchanging saliva for a few seconds before coming back to their seats again, all the while I was admiring the picture of two gorgeous girls kissing.

''Awawawawa-

But it seems like the other two are not very used to this, Anastasia's face is beet red, her hands covering both of her eyes, but I can clearly see her peeking through the gaps between her fingers, so that's not a very effective cover. Even Christina seems taken aback.

''Well then, let us continue-

-----

In the end, it was not until 11 P.M that the party ended, Christina and Anastasia said goodbye to us and left.

It was a lot of fun, though, we tried a ton of games together. Besides normal karaoke games, we tried all kinds of card games as well, then we moved onto board games, I did a bit of singing too, good time.

''By the way, what did you guys prepared?'' I asked, sitting in the bathtub together with my girlfriends.

Both Liana and Emy grin at the same time.

''That will soon be revealed on our bed, my princess.'' Liana said.

Eh?
