<~> Chapter 175 "Group meeting really quick!" I called out. We hadn't stopped for the night yet but I wao have this discussion where Cecilia wouldn't hear it. Unfortuhat meant that Bel wouldn't be included since she's riding in the an's seat with Cecilia right now.

  Everyone curiously turoward my bench as I put together my thoughts. "There are a few things we o talk about for this trip. One of them being, whether or not we trust Cecilia enough to tell her about the Succubi. Maybe even invite her to bee one as well, if she's ied."

  "Why? Do you think we o tell her?" Torien asked.

  "Well, we're about to head into a repressive city where we won't be as free to have sex as openly as have been," I replied.

  Torien looked at me ftly. "That's y worry?"

  I felt my face heat up a bit but I tinued. "We're succubi, we'll o be as... satiated as we in case it's not safe to recharge right away. There's also a few things I would like to test before we make it to the city and it would be hard to do if I was worried about her seeing it."

  Man perked up. "Test what?"

  "My wings," I replied. "So far things have been clear, not much traffi this rht now. It would make seo find a spot obscured from the road a out gliding and flying with my um, rger form. I 't really do that if she freaks out at me shapeshifting in front of her. I'm a bit sick of being called a demon."

  "Cecilia worked closely with Tarklin, she would know that roup fought off the dungeon break, I doubt she would suspey of us of being demons," Torien said.

  "Sure." I shrugged. "Either way, it would still be better if we told her ahead of time rather than wonder what we're doing on one of our breaks and disc me on her own."

  Silva crossed her arms. "The bigger question is if we trust her. It doesn't sound like you know her that well. W with her a few times doesn't garhat much trust to me. How do we know she isn't w with the demon summoners?"

  Man shook her head. "No, if she was involved with the demon summoners she would have demonic miasma on her. Since Lilith and I gaihe demon huitle spotting them with our mana sense is easy. She would stick out like a sore thumb."

  Silva nodded. "I suppose that's true if you say it is. But even if we know she's not directly our enemy, that doesn't mean she wouldn't have reservations about your new species..."

  "What if we seduce her?" Raya asked suddenly. When everyouro her she looked flustered for a moment but kept going. "She was clearly into me the other day. Maybe if we draw her into a few threesomes and ies she would be more receptive to joining us. Or at least not be bothered by what we are. I feel like it would work," she finished with a shrug.

  Theo chuckled. "I feel odd being included in this versation."

  Sibyl grinned. "You'd rather be included ihreesomes and ies."

  The ent got a full belly ugh out of him. "You've seen through me, what gave it away?"

  Sibyl leaned forward aed her on her palm. "The girls talk, it sounds like you knew what you were doing. I wouldn't be against having some fun with you, given the ce."

  Man ughed. "Let's stay on task girls, we're talking about sedug Cecilia not Theht now."

  I tapped my fingers oable. "It's not a bad idea, and she did seem ied in a few of us. It doesly solve the trust issue but if Raya vinced her to bee a succubus as well then we shouldn't o worry."

  Raya smiled. "Let me have dibs then? I've been thinking about those tasty abs since I met her." She pulled Sibyl into a hug. "Sibyl here still has 'em but they're less noticeable now." She started pulling up the catgirl's shirt and rubbing her fihrough her belly fur.

  Sibyl's ears went bad she looked embarrassed but she didn't fight it. If anything she looked aroused. A peek through the bond told me maybe a bit more than I really wanted to know about how that made her feel.

  I cleared my throat. "Alright then, so Raya will try and seduce her and use that as an inroad to telling her about us and potentially invitio bee a succubus. Be careful how you breach the topic though, I don't want to pressure her if she doesn't want to join us. In the meantime, we should try and probe her for how she might feel about non-demon shapeshifters."

  Raya snickered. "Probe her? Aren't we going a little fast Lilith?"

  We all had a ugh and Sibyl took the opportunity to wiggle out of Raya's grasp and pull her shirt back down. The mood was light as we joked around and waited for the time to pass.

  ***

  Several hours ter the carriage came to a stop. Everyone climbed out of the carriage, eager to stretch s from the slightly bumpy jourhe carriage had better suspension than what I had expected but it was still a bumpier ride than a car. At least my ass didn't hurt as much as it did the first time I rode in a carriage.

  Everyone was quick to get started setting up camp. The sun was setting now. We still had a little bit of sunlight but it would get dark pretty quickly, we o be ready before the noal monsters came out for the night. Most of the mohat came out during the day were cleared along this road but that wasn't the case for the night monsters. It was too hard to actively target them from what I've heard from Theo.

  "Lilith! e help me with the uunas, everyone else hahe tents and things," Cecilia called out.

  I nodded and headed over. "What do you need me to do? I've never unhooked an uuna from a carriage before."

  "No problem, let me show you. You'll handle Nikka since she likes you already."

  Cecilia showed me the ropes, literally, and I got a handle on how to strap and unstrap them from their equipment. , I helped groom them which was something that was really necessary for uunas right after being unstrapped, the bonding experience helped them tolerate the experience again iure. Uunas were very temperamental and intelligent, if you didn't give them rewards ahem happy they would start refusing to do things for you. This was a bit of a double-edged sword, it was easier to get them to uand plex instrus but harder to get them to follow them if they didn't feel respected. This grooming art of their reward for pulling the carriage all day, and they were happy to do it as long as you didn't treat them solely as beasts of burden. They were pack-oriented animals and expected a give and take from the members they felt were part of their family.

  Nikka nuzzled me when I got up to her face. Her big head nearly pushed me over but I just ughed and ruffled her fur baikka had pretty much been affeate with me from the start and even fought with me against bandits. It had been a little while since I had seen her so it was o bond like this with her again. It was unfortuhat I wasn't able to ride her on this trip but being in the carriage with my friends was oo.

  "You're really good with them. Not just Nikka who has taken a liking to you, but with Landa too." The uuna iion made a chuffing sound and rolled on his back for Cecilia to groom his belly. "Landa wouldn't be as rexed as he is if he was worried about you. He probably already reizes you as part of his pack, that's good, makes everything safer."

  I smiled and reached over to ruffle his head fur. "He's a good boy." Landa nuzzled me bad Nikka started gettiween us, seemingly jealous of the attention I was giving him. I ughed and refocused on Nikka. "Don't worry, you're a good girl too! The best!"

  It was kind of crazy, the huge animals acted just like cats. I had seen firsthand just how dangerous they could be though, it was a grisly sight.

  "A lot of people are scared of them and stay scared of them forever. That's ly a bad thing, I would rather someone be scared of them than be aggressive towards them. But someone who is scared of them will never form a bond, fe a e with them, and will never be treated as one of their pack. Uunas will go to great lengths to proteeohey sider part of their family. They might proteeohat travels with them but it's much less likely that way."

  Ohe uunas were properly thanked and pcated, I came over to help finish up the tents. Between Silva and Sibyl, most of the tents were already up but another helping hand never hurt. Man, Bel, and Raya were on the hunt for firewood, the task of 'fire building' would be good practice for Raya's magic lessons. Even if Man wasn't here, it would be uhat anyone ever made fire the way I was used t camping in my old world. Basic fire spells and ritual magic meant that almost no one had to actually rub sticks together to get kindling going. They still needed fuel to catd burn through the night but starting the fire was a non-issue.

  We arrahe tents in a semi-circle on one side of the carriage opposite the road. The top of the carriage would give whoever was on watch a good vantage point to look out for monsters from all dires. We were a little ways off the road a up our tents oher side of the carriage to give us a little bit of privacy from araveling the road at night. Unlike closer to the frontier, it wasn't as dangerous to travel in the dark. You still might run into monsters but they were much less threatening thahings that came out raehall. That's also why there were forts set up along the eh toward the froowns, they were necessary on that path.

  Eventually, all of us finished with our preparations for camping and Sibyl volunteered to do the cooking for us orip. sidering she was the cook for the Ruby Vixen all these years, none of us had any pints. Cecilia helped carry over some of the ingredients while Sibyl got started using some simple magid a small stove kit.

  Raya was looking a little despo, so I decided to sit dowo her. "Hey, Raya, are you okay? You look upset."

  She gave me a half-hearted smile before sighing. "Promise you won't ugh?"

  Patting her on the back, I smiled. "e on, it 't be that bad."

  Raya gave out another exaggerated sigh. "Sibyl won't let me help her cook. ...I almost burned dow a few times back at the Ruby Vixen."

  I raised an eyebrow and Raya crossed her arms in respoo my look. "I mean, I get it. But I'm not totally useless when it es to that stuff. I could still chop vegetables or something..."

  I thought about it for a moment before patting her on the leg. "Maybe Sibyl just wants to show off, show how good she take care of you. Past... mistakes aside, maybe it would be better to just accept that cooking is what she's good at and—" I decided to ge my words at the withering stare she was giving me, "and you're better at other things."

  She sighed and slumped down. "Maybe you're right."

  ing her in a side hug I whispered into her ear, "Besides, it's about time to do what you're good at and seduce a certain dark-haired beauty."

  Raya licked her lips. "Mmm, I taste those abs already."

  I blinked. "Okay, that was a little gross..."

  She scoffed. "What? The taste of sweat? The smell of womanly musk?"

  I pushed her away with a ugh. "Eww. I don't want to hear any more about womanly musk."

  Raya pushed me back with a huge smile. "You just don't get it, it takes a refined pate to uand," she said with a mock haughty tone.

  The two of us started ughing just as Cecilia came over to sit down on one of the old logs ulled over as makeshift benches. "What are you two ughing about over here?"

  We looked at each other and I saw the glimmer of mischief in Raya's eyes. She got up and sat o Cecilia, quickly getting into her personal spad ing her long twin tails around the dark-haired woman.

  "We were just talking about you actually," she said in a seductive tone as her firailed up the other woman's leg. "Lilith was making a joke at my expense because..." she leaned forward to whisper in Cecilia's ear. "I 't wait to taste you."

  Cecilia flushed and squirmed in obvious arousal.

  "Wh-what about Sibyl?"

  Since Cecilia wasn't making any effort to stop her, Raya pressed closer and groped the woman's ass through her pants. "Who says she wouldn't join us? Would you like that? Getting caught between two predators?"

  "I... I would...."

  "Gooood. I'll make sure you enjoy yourself tonight."
