90 hours having sex with the elves and 10 hours to sleep and rest.
He finally understood why elves were called 'man-eaters.' An ordinary man wouldn't be able to handle them. They went days without eating much, surviving only on simple cereal bars that Zaydas gave them, and drank plenty of water, never leaving the room except for a few baths.
And a lot of sex!
[+3,885 AP!]
[+6,993 AP!]
Looking at what appeared in the bottom left corner of his retina, he smiled slightly: 'It seems their importance is quite significant.'
Of course, although other elves appeared in the story of the manga Isekai Nonbiri Nouka, it was undeniable to him that Ria and her sisters were the best.
"Sluurp~~!"
Speaking of Ria... Zaydas stroked the head of this 'nymph,' letting her do whatever she wanted upon waking, while the others continued to sleep.
But seriously, she had gotten really good at it...
───────────
In front of Zaydas was an orchard covering 1 hectare of land. Half of the land was planted with tall trees that bore golden fruits, similar in shape to apples, but clearly something different.
'It actually worked...'
Watching the fruits ripen and turn golden, it was just as he had read in the novel description in his past life: Pocket Hunting Dimension.
This golden fruit was an excellent ingredient for making wine, as crafted by the Golden Apes in the novel.
Honestly, he only had a little hope—after all, it was a novel, and not everything could be considered something that actually existed in another dimension. However, if Dimensional Jump had proven anything to him, it was that some of the fictions he had seen were real. So, why not give it a try?
He only regretted never having watched the anime Toriko. He simply couldn't bring himself to like it. But if he had watched it, maybe he could have replicated some things from there.
'Well, enough thinking about that. Let me taste it...' Zaydas used telekinesis to pluck a golden fruit and bring it toward him.
It was a bit difficult to pull off, but not impossible.
'Let's see how it tastes...'
Holding in his hand a fruit slightly larger than a conventional apple, he took a bite of the golden fruit.
Zaydas' eyes sparkled. He took another bite.
Although subtle, he could feel his strength increasing slightly. Of course, if he hadn't stopped to pay attention, he might not have even noticed. But that wasn't even the most important part—the most important thing was the taste.
"Delicious, simply too delicious~" Zaydas hummed.
It was rare for him to feel this way when eating something.
When he finished eating the entire golden fruit, Zaydas could feel its golden energy subtly spreading through his body, strengthening him slightly.
Even if it was just a 0.001% increase, it was still incredible.
'So, this isn't the original version from the novel?'
In the novel, the golden fruit was described as something even more special. But maybe the laws in that world were stronger, producing more nutritious golden fruits...
'But this can still be considered a spiritual fruit or something similar.' Zaydas thought, his eyes shining. 'I want to make wine with these fruits!'
He blinked and used Dimensional Jump, traveling to the DC AU. After learning how to make wine and buying the necessary materials, he returned, appearing in the air not far from Hiraku.
'I need to do something about my returns to this dimension...'
But for now, he simply teleported to the golden fruit orchard.
The entire process, from extracting the juice from the golden fruits to mixing it with wine yeast, nutrients for fermentation, etc., was done using Modeling and Telekinesis.
With everything done, he took several 50-liter fermenters with airlocks and filled them before sealing them. A total of 20 were filled.
In his mansion, Zaydas reinforced the floor with magic, solidifying it to the maximum before creating an underground area where he built a wine cellar and a separate dark room to let the wine rest.

'Great Sage, how much will it cost me to change the time flow in this room to 1 minute per 1 month?'
[Analyzing... 1 minute per 1 month will cost 4 AP.]
'Do it.' Zaydas commanded.
[-4 AP]
Zaydas felt Chronokinesis being used in the room.
Leaving and closing the door, he waited for 1 minute before opening it again.
In the meantime, he spent 10% of his Demonic Power by using Chronokinesis in this way.
When he entered, he opened the fermenters, did what needed to be done after seeing that the bubbling had stopped, and transferred the liquid from each of them into wine barrels.
'Great Sage, do the same as before, but four times the previous amount.'
[-16 AP]
[Done!]
Zaydas left the room again and waited 4 minutes.
During those 4 minutes, he lost 50% of his Demonic Power.
Taking a golden fruit, he began to eat and felt his power being replenished by 2% after finishing it.
'So, it can also be used this way...'
An interesting discovery.
He ate ten more golden fruits, replenishing about 20% of the Demonic Power spent on using Chronokinesis in the room.
Waiting in the hallway outside the room, he thought for a moment and went to the wine cellar.
Well, although he called it a wine cellar, for now, there was no wine in it—just several empty shelves.
'I need to produce bottles for my wine...'
Although he didn't know how good the wine made from golden fruits would be, he imagined it couldn't be inferior to any other wine he had ever tasted.
This time, he bought 100 empty bottles to store the wine, but next time, he would try producing his own bottles.
When the 4 minutes passed, he returned to the wine resting room.
As he approached, he could already smell the strong aroma of fermented wine, mixed with energy to the point that just breathing it in made him feel refreshed.
Opening the door, the scent became even more noticeable.
...
Rias and her sisters were preparing to leave. However, they stopped at the door when they caught a delicious scent and...
"That's alcohol!"
"This smell is so good... Where is it coming from?"
Ria sniffed more deeply.
Rita pointed and said, "It seems to be coming from there!"
When they saw a door that hadn't been there before, they were initially confused.
"Has this door always been here?"
"No, it's something new." Ria answered Rize.
"Shall we check what it is?" Rikoto suggested meekly.
"..."
No one answered as they all looked at Ria.
Sighing, Ria said, "Alright, let's take a look."
Smiling at each other, they followed Ria, who took the lead.
When they opened the door in the lower right corner, they saw a staircase leading to an underground area.
"Zaydas did all this in such a short time?" Risu seemed surprised.
"Did you forget how his power works?" Rifu gave her a strange look.
"Ahhh..." As if remembering, Risu fell silent, blushing slightly in embarrassment.
"Shall we go down?" Rize nudged Ria's shoulder.
Ria nodded. "Since we're already here, let's go down."
...
Zaydas could feel the presence of the elves approaching. The truth was, he could have stopped them from coming down, but he didn't want to. He was going to call them anyway to show them the wine he had created.
After filling all 100 bottles with the golden wine, he left the room, letting the rest continue resting for longer until he started producing more wine bottles.
'I feel like I could drink it as it is, but I need to wait at least a month for the wine to mature, and the longer it rests, the better the flavor...'
After using Chronokinesis a few times, he gained a bit of control, but not much.
Making the bottles float, he carried them to the cellar while setting up a barrier in the wine resting area to divert attention from the room—the same type of spell he had used on the golden fruit orchard.
Upon arriving at the cellar, he stacked 98 bottles while keeping two in his hands.
Closing his eyes, he tried to use Chronokinesis only in the space around his hands, surrounding the bottles of golden wine.
As he did this, the elves arrived and saw him inside the cellar with the door open.
...
When the elves arrived, unsure of what he was doing and why he stood there with his eyes closed, holding two glass bottles, they remained silent, not stepping any closer.
"What is Zaydas doing?" Rifu asked in a low voice.
"I have no idea, but..." Risu touched her lips. "If I had to guess, it has something to do with that delicious scent we smelled earlier."
Although the aroma lingering in the air had faded slightly, there were still traces of it.
"That makes sense." Ria agreed with her.
...
Zaydas opened his eyes.
For a brief moment, a clock-hand pattern became visible in his eyes, but it vanished as quickly as it appeared.
"You arrived just in time." Zaydas smiled at them warmly. "Come in, let's taste the wine I made."
"Wine!"
When they heard what he said, a look of eager anticipation appeared on each of their faces.
Stepping into the cellar, they saw that Zaydas had prepared an area with a table for tasting and drinking.
The table was large enough for 20 people, so seating eight was not an issue.
Drawing magic circles on the wooden table, Zaydas made eight glass goblets appear—proper glasses for drinking wine.
Although they were used to his powers, it never failed to impress them whenever they saw something like this.
However, their attention was focused on his hands.
When Zaydas placed the two wine bottles on the table, their eyes followed them, like a dog tracking a juicy piece of meat...
"This glass..." Ria asked. "Why does it have this shape?"
"Haha, so you're curious about that, huh?" Zaydas smiled mysteriously. "Actually, the answer is simple. This shape makes the wine taste better, and I call it a goblet."
"Really?" Not just Ria, but all the elves looked skeptical.
From what he understood of this world, glass cups followed a standard shape. There shouldn't be one where the rim was narrower than the base.
Without explaining further, he knew they would eventually understand.
Uncorking the first bottle, a popping sound echoed, and an aromatic scent, even stronger than before, filled the room.
'Almost three months matured, and this is the result.' Even he felt his throat dry at the intoxicating aroma.
With elegance, he poured the wine into his glass and the girls'.
Then, he held his goblet by the stem and swirled the golden wine slightly inside the glass.
"This color..."
"I've never seen golden wine before..." Ria murmured.
The others nodded in agreement.
If even Ria, the oldest among them, hadn't noticed, then there was no way the others would.
"I'm not surprised you didn't see it." Zaydas said before taking a sip. "This wine is made from a special magical fruit that I created myself."
Although it wasn't entirely true, it wasn't a lie either. The fact that he had copied and tried to replicate it from something he read in a novel didn't need to be explained.
When they heard this, the elves' eyes sparkled.
It was easy to read what they were thinking without even using mind-reading: If he can create fruits like this, he can make even more delicious wines!
Even before tasting it, they had already taken for granted that it would be delicious.
However, before Zaydas drank, they held back their urge to down the wine immediately.
Zaydas brought the goblet to his lips, and as the wine slid down his throat... An indescribable sensation made him let out a deep sigh of satisfaction.
The girls could recognize that expression—it was the same one he had when he was...
Several of them blushed, but they didn't dwell on it for long. Instead, they picked up their glasses and took a sip as well.
Meanwhile, Zaydas could feel that just a single sip of the golden wine was enough to stimulate his body's cells and even doubled the recovery speed of his Demonic Power.
'So the wine has the effect of strengthening the body and accelerating my power recovery...'
It was like a buff effect, whereas the pure fruit had the ability to instantly restore lost power.
Each had its own advantages, but in the long run, the wine might be even better.
When Zaydas turned his attention back to the elves, he saw that many of them had flushed cheeks and were letting out small, erotic moans.
"God, how can a wine this good even exist?" Risu asked, not directing the question at anyone in particular.
"I want to marry this wine!" Rita exclaimed.
Even Ria and the other elves nodded, making nasal "Mmh, mmh!" sounds in agreement.
"Wouldn't it be better to marry the one who can make such wine?" Zaydas said playfully.
When they heard that, their eyes gleamed intensely. They suddenly looked even hungrier than they had the night before.
"Yes, if we marry Zaydas..." Rita licked her lips.
"Hey, girls, let's calm down, alright?"
"Hehehe~~"
...
Hours later, Zaydas was lying naked in his cellar, looking helplessly at the passed-out, drunken, naked elves...
Chuckling a little, he shook his head.
When he told them to calm down, he never said it was because he couldn't handle it~
Using telekinesis, he carried all of them to the bathroom, washing each one before placing them in bed.
Just as he was about to leave the room, Rize woke up, looking groggy with her flushed face. When she saw him, her eyes curved into an almond shape, shining as she said:
"Why are you dressed? Come here! Your big sister's gonna make you happy~"
