Opposite the naughty room is another room with a black door.

But, this one is apparently the 'Treasure room', according to the sign.

*clack*

Wow...

''Wow~...''

(◯Δ ◯)

I understand, Anna. I would have made that face too, if I hadn't been taught etiquette by mom.

Hm? I acted like a bitch? That's just your imagination. I am a pure, elegant princess with a god-like body. Alright?

''How rich was this guy??'' Liana exclaimed, looking at the mountains of gemstone scattered all over the place.

Well I mean, 'scattered' probably wasn't the right word, they're still on stands. But the amount is still ridiculous, even if the value of gems in this world is not that high compared to Earth.

''Is there any instruction?''

''Let me see... Here it is.''

''It says... 'Freebies! Take five per person, if you take more than that, I will have you escorted out of this place.' ''

''Alright then, these look like high quality gems, having more won't hurt.''

-----

After permanently borrowing the juicy gemstones, we headed to the final room sandwiched between the previous two.

This time, the door is bigger, whiter, and fancier.

And it doesn't have a sign.

...We aren't going to be thrown into a maze or anything like that, right...?

*clack*

'''' ... ''''

''Rather simple, huh.'' Liana commented.

''Yeah, I expected more...'' Anna said dejectedly.

It's... a living room?

There's one big sofa at the center of the room, and a simple wooden table before it. And that's about it.

''Just sit first.''

So we all settled down onto the sofa, with Emy in the middle, me sitting on Emy's lap, Anna sitting on my lap, and the other two on the sides.

What in the hell is this position.

It still fits though, somehow.

''So, what do we do here?'' Tina asked.

''I mean, there's literally nothing else in this place...'' I said, scanning the room.

''Sex?'' Liana said.

''Sex.'' Emy replied.

No, you idiots.

''Eh?! A-Are we doing it here...?''

No, Anna, they're teasing you, specifically. My poor cat is too gullible.

Hmm... Usually in these room there's some kind of hidden mechanisms somewhere... The table?

There we go. I think I just activated something.

Above the unremarkable table, a transparent blue screen appears. It looks like some of those hologram projections that you would typically see in sci-fi movies, or, the infamous systems in a lot of fantasy works nowadays.

Is this a video playback or something? Cause I don't see any buttons or controls, so it's not a game.

*bzzt*

Suddenly, the man himself? Saint Vivian appears.

''Woah!'' The small fry cat got jumpscared by that, she buries her head into my chest to hide like usual.

''Hello, fellow Saints.'' He said, his voice low, almost sounded like a grumble.

Anna finally turns back to look at the screen.

''My name is Antony Vivian, your senior.''

A withered old man in his twilight greets us. He has a firm and serious look on his face, is this really the guy who put an obscene amount of sex toys in his tomb...?

''If you're watching this, then it's very like that I've died.''

''But it's fine. I chose to be a human. And I chose not to extend my lifespan.''

''Fortunately, I won't have to go alone. My beautiful wife is coming with me as well.''

''I also have quite a few children. They're very cute and smart. I'm sure they would make our house prosper even more.''

I'm so sorry dude, your household is a mess right now.

''But I digress. The very purpose of this recording, is to pass down my message and advices to future Saints. You. Yes, you. And your companions as well.''

''...Let me begin with this first. I have a lot of faith in the goddess. Throughout history, no Saint has ever been recorded as a malevolent individual. That goes to show just how seriously the goddess takes her duty to choose the right people. Although she might seems aloof and clumsy sometimes, the fact that she loves this world is plainly evident.''

''And maybe because she loves this world that she was able to protect it this well thus far.''

''That brings us to the next point. You need to learn to love this place, too.''

''This world is amazing. It has wonderful people living in it. I've traveled far beyond the empire's territory, and, personally experienced all of that.''

''So, I advise you to explore it as well. Get to know the people, what they do, what they love, and what they fight for.''

''Let me tell you some of the places I've been before.''

''The land of steel and fire, Dwarf country - Vurgon. The mystic forest of jade elves - Everwood. The grassland of wild beast-kins - Ranka. The nest of ferocious dragons - The Infinite range. The underwater city of dreams - Atlas.''

''That's not all of them, but the point is. I've never had a bad experience visiting any of them before. Maybe excluding the dragon nest.''

''...Even now, I still remember vividly, the cheerful people living in those cities. Thriving civilizations. They're not humans, but I could see ourselves through them. It's magical, really.''

''I wanted to protect them, and let them grow. And to do that, I needed to collaborate with a lot of people.''

''You can't defeat the demon king alone, believe it or not.''

''However strong you might be, the demon king will definitely have a lot of helpers. And you are not going against them alone.''

''There are former Saints that you can consult with, the church is also your major ally as well, make them you allies.''

''...And one final thing.''

Saint Vivian relaxes his face, but I could still see his blue eyes sparkle, shining brilliantly.

''No matter how you are right now, don't forget that you were once a human, an Earthling, just like me and everybody else. Don't forget your root... Don't forget the humanity inside you.''

'''' ... ''''

That... was good. Concise and inspirational. Exactly what I need.

Little Anna seems a bit sentimental, let me give you some head pats.

''...Now, a little bit of chatting.'' He said casually.

''This video was taken using a very rare material, a mermaid queen's tear. It's extremely hard to come by, and the price is ridiculous as well. Hopefully someone could come along and develop modern camera sometimes soon.''

Hey, that's me.

''Oh, and I also have a little hobby as well. You might know about BDSM.''

''Ooh~'' Liana on the side nods repeatedly.

''I've left a lot of unused goods inside another room. Feel free to take them if you like. And remember to read the precautions.''

''And, as an expert on the topic, I'll give you a few bonus tips as well.''

''Hm! Hm!''

''Firstly, you need to set a safe word with your partne-

-----

The BDSM education session lasted for about 10 minutes, which was way longer than his previous message.

I mean, he did teach us about how to enjoy BDSM, sure. But it is really a good topic here...?

''Alright. It looks like I don't have much time left on this recording...''

He smiles warmly one last time and waves lightly with his wrinkled hand.

''...I hope you the best, comrades. And remember, live the way you want to live. That's all from me.''

*bzzt*

'''' ... ''''

''That was good.'' I said.

''I agree. Excluding the BDSM part.'' Tina replied.

''What do you mean? That part was so good.'' Liana refuted.

''Only for you, cutting board.''

''Huh?! You have the audacity to say that when you've heard Sylvie moan like a bitch in heat after being spanked before?''

I think I did.

''Ngh...''

Even the cat is getting horny...

''Let's go back for now. We'll do a big, fun gangbang tonight, alright?'' I said.

''Don't forget the bondage.''

''I won't.''
