Chapter 51: Sleep so Good, I Woke up a new Woman.

(Marinkia’s POV)

Berna: “Are you awake, Marinkia?” She asked.

Marinkia: “…Yeah.” I reply with a groan.

Sitting up, my body was fine. I wasn’t in any pain, either. I was just very groggy. It is a good thing that Grant banned caffeine many years ago, or I would be very addicted to coffee…

Marinkia: “How long was I asleep for?” I ask.

Berna: “It’s been… Many years.” She answered with a sad expression.

Marinkia: “…”

What?… How many years would that be? Oh, God… I have left Clare alone for so long. As well as left my wives alone…

Berna: “I am just joking, Marinkia. You were only asleep for a few days.” She said with a laugh.

Marinkia: “Not funny, Berna.” I say with a pout.

More laughter ensued, and soon Berna and a few other maids guided me to the bath. Looking in the mirror while they bathed me, I saw that my appearance had drastically changed.

My hair was now pure gold, like I had dyed it. It was natural; I swear!!! And my eyes were now also pure gold. Trying it out, I could make my eyes glow whenever I wanted to. Can I make people tell the truth now?

Marinkia: “Berna, tell me a secret fetish of yours.” I ask, looking Berna in her eyes with my glowing ones.

Berna: “I am sexually attracted to women’s armpits.” She answered.

Her face went beet red instantly. Holy shit… can I even make Numens tell the truth!?

Marinkia: “Sorry… I didn’t think that my powers would work on you…” I say with a remorseful tone.

Berna: “It’s fine… They shouldn’t work on us, but it seems that you have another privilege that Krul has. That being, her abilities work on us as well.” She replied with a sigh.

After that little awkward conversation, we returned to my bath. It didn’t take long for them to scrub me absolutely clean. And them bathing me has always been relaxing to an extreme for me. A true delight.

My dress for today was a dark green one piece, and my lingerie was also dark green. With my new appearance, it would seem that I could work with more colors for my outfits now.

Brown hair isn’t bad, as it will fit with every color. The problem is that no color of clothing could ever bring out the color of your brown hair. That wasn’t the case at all for my new golden hair.

Krul: “Good morning, Kia. Your wives are here, by the way.” She informed.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

Mai rushed up to me and gave me a hug, followed by Mercedes doing the same. A long conversation followed, and Krul assured me that my two wives were fully aware of happened during our separation for so long.

Some Time Later.

Clare: “Alright, now that it’s settled. Why don’t you three go get married? Mai and Kia still don’t have their PCs, after all.” She suggested.

The society of Numens was very similar to my old one. They even used Credits for the currency. All in all, it was practically the same society, except that the Numens ruled it all.

Marinkia: “We don’t have a car, though?” I reply.

Krul: “Car? Well… we can buy you one if you want. Though we do have many shuttles that you can use.” She replied in her wife’s stead.

Mai: “That would be great!” She said with an excited tone.

Mercedes: “It will be even better than great!” She agreed.

Marinkia: “How so?” I ask with a head tilt.

Mercedes: “Do you think that Krul wouldn’t be using the most expensive and top of the line products? The shuttles here must be brand new and expensive!” She exclaimed.

Marinkia: “…”

Clare: “That’s right. Kia, the one that you rode in before… wasn’t the best. I am sure that you will enjoy the ride even more this time.” She said with a smile.

I was ushered into a shuttle by both of my mothers. The maids ushered Mai and Mercedes in, and Berna was the driver. Once inside, I understood what they meant…

Mai: “This is…” Her words failed her.

Mercedes: “Wow…” She said with a shocked expression.

Marinkia: “…”

I mean, it was a shuttle, sure. But did need to be this absurdly luxurious!? The clouds were… I mean; the seats felt like pure clouds. The interior had some very expensive gems inlaid everywhere. There was… I could honestly go on for hours about how amazing this shuttle was.

A Shuttle Trip Later.

Berna: “Ladies, we’re here.” She informed.

Marinkia: “Fwha…” I say with a groggy tone with misty eyes.

Holy heck… I accidentally fell asleep!? Oh, Mai and Mercedes did as well. I am not a failure, then. I was worried that I ended up becoming more like a mate…

With great drowsiness, we left the shuttle. Since the number of mates in this society was very low, the MB, Marriage Bureau, was practically empty. No, it actually was empty…

Or it would be, but the Numens weren’t stupid. Even if there aren’t many mates, they knew not to waste a bunch of space. So, this building doubled as many, and pretty much every bureau for this city.

Rather than go get married, we actually first needed to get a new PC. As such, we walked over to the side that handled such matters. Going inside, it was decently full. But no one was waiting in line.

The Numens knew that waiting in line sucks, so they did everything in their power to make sure no lines would happen unless it was unavoidable. Walking up to a free stand, I talked to the person tending to it.

Marinkia: “Hello, my wife and I both need PCs.” I explain.

Clerk: “Very well, please follow the employee that will come out shortly. We need various things from you so that your identity can be easily verified if ever needed.” She replied.

Soon, a woman came out and guided Mai and me into a different room. There, I gave my saliva, fingerprints, and a few drops of my blood. This wasn’t just for documentation.

PCs were great, as they only allowed the original owner of it to have access. Sure, you could let others see what you’re doing, but otherwise it is a practically closed off system that has access to the internet.

Both Mai and I had to get a short bit of surgery. The PCs were installed in one of your wrists, so we needed to take out Grant’s PCs, and replace them with the Numen ones. Luckily, anesthetics were even better in this society.

Once the medicine was applied, there wasn’t any pain at all as the woman cut my wrist vertically. It also didn’t hurt as the woman reapplied the medicine on the nerve the PC was connected to before removing it.

Using a nerve, it was possible to have a connection to your PC and brain. The surgery and replacement was done within just a few minutes. The woman was clearly skilled at her job, probably aided by Krul’s knowledge.

I forgot to mention, but every time I was bandaged up, they used the same pain numbing medicine on me. To ensure that everything worked out, we had to stay and be watched for an hour. Luckily, Mercedes could wait alongside us until then. Soon, I will be getting married to them…
