For a moment, I felt lightheaded, but not in a sort of way one would get from exhaustion. It was more like my head turned fuzzy before it floated away from my body briefly and came back to it, if that makes sense. As the white light dimmed through my closed eyes, my senses I thought I had lost slowly came back to me while being a little more sensitive to the strange new changes. The air around me wasn't the slightly damp, stagnant air of the church's secret cavern, but the cool, refreshing one of an air conditioned room. The cold, hard, dirty ground now had a carpet with a soft, velvet-smooth texture. Instead of the silence, a soothing jazz track rang in my ears.

In short, it was like I was suddenly transported from the church's secret cavern to somebody's luxurious bedroom, and when I slowly opened my eyes, that assumption turned out to be correct, but I only had a moment to confirm it.

"Jinmaaaa! You finally came!" A sudden feminine voice whose mature, silk-like tone was impossible to not recognize.

Just as I was trying to take in my surroundings, I was suddenly pulled up from my kneeling position and into an incredibly soft, springy pair of large cushions. The sensation that enveloped my face and head, 'divine' couldn't even describe it well enough. Moreover, I was suffocating under such softness while an unbelievable scent of perfume filled my nostrils. I wasn't sure whether I was on my way to heaven or that I was already there, but taking into account that voice and the hints of the exotic dancer outfit I was familiar with, I might be leaning more towards the latter.

"... Obina?" I muttered with muffled breath.

"That's riiiiight!" she exclaimed with a melodic tone before gently setting me down and striking a pose fitting for a model, "The one and only voluptuous and exotic Immortal who oozes ecstasy, the Goddess of Lust, Obina, is heeeeere! Welcome, Champion Jinma Kotori and companions to my humble … oh? Do we have an unexpected guest?"

The Goddess of Lust, who was all gung ho in her greeting moments ago, stopped midway as she noticed someone that, from the sound of her tone, shouldn't be here. My thoughts rushed to the worst conclusion.

Did Sue somehow manage to come with us?! Wait, more importantly, wasn't Nyra not feeling well moments ago?!

I yelled in a panic through [Telepathy].

"Uuugh. Not so looooud," an unfamiliar, slightly husky voice groaned.

"... Who said that?" I asked.

"Uh, Jinma, you might want to turn around," Obina said, "Umeiyon, Ren, you should see this, too."

Obina then spun me around by the shoulders and, with Ume and Ren just raising their heads and turning in the same direction, we all had shocked expressions on our faces.

Instead of Sue, who I feared came here with us moments ago, there was a dark-skinned, slender woman with long, light-pink hair lying face down on the velvet carpet. She was wearing a dark violet tunic and skirt, both of which were old and worn out while being too small for her size, poorly covering her privates. Her most notable features, though, were the long, pointy ears and large almond-shaped, glass-like wings flopped over her form. She looked exhausted, maybe malnourished as there wasn't a lot of meat on her. It seemed like she could break under the slightest touch for how frail she appeared.

"... Pain. Hurts. Can't move … starving," the dark-skinned woman groaned before the loudest growl I've ever heard rang throughout the room.

GURURURURURU!

WAS THAT HER STOMACH?!

"Oh, dear, this doesn't look good at all. Jinma, lay Nyra on my bed and let me see if I can get some—," Obina said.

"NYRA?!" Ume, Ren, and I interrupted Obina.

"Dammit, didn't I say to keep it down?" Nyra groaned, “Jinma, please do as Goddess Obina says and put me on her bed. I can’t move.”

“Uh, right,” I said, still startled as I activated my [Levitate] Null Spell and carefully lifted Nyra off the floor. I then moved her to Obina’s bed and gently set her down on her back. The Goddess, meanwhile, quickly rushed out of the room, probably to get some food to sate Nyra’s hunger.

“What’s going on, Jin?” Ume asked, “Nyra’s curse should still be keeping her in the tanto, right? Moreover, I’m not sure if a ‘Pixie’ like her is supposed to be this big.”

“I don’t know! I’m as confused as … the tanto’s gone?!” I exclaimed as I quickly patted myself, trying to find the weapon I usually carry.

"Th-That's not all … Lady Umeiyon, w-why do you have horns … and wings?" Ren asked shakily.

"HUH," Ume and I responded in unison.

I turned to her and, as Ren said, Ume has the horns and wings from her Dragon form appear on her. She looked over to a full-sized mirror and checked herself, feeling her horns and flapping her wings before her human-like skin had gone pale.

"Jin … what's happening? I … I didn't mean to, like this …" Ume muttered, having difficulty getting the words out.

"This is the work of being in the Immortals' Realm, after all," Obina then said as she came back to the room with a bowl of what looks like applesauce in her hands, "When you opened your hearts to the monument in prayer, it took a rendition of your souls suitable for this place and sent them here while they manifested into physical bodies. Umeiyon's current form is the most suitable one to fit into this place, considering how Dragons are usually so huge in their true appearances.”

"Dragons?!" Ren exclaimed, "Y-You mean, Lady Umeiyon is …"

"Ren, please don't be scared or harsh to Ume," I said, stepping between them, "I thought the people knowing Ume being a Dragon would make them panic, so I asked her to keep using her Lizardman form in public. I planned to have her reveal herself when we've grown close enough as a party. This was my idea, so whatever transgressions you may have at this unexpected revelation, direct them at me."

I was hoping to ease the weight of Ume's sudden burden by shouldering the blame. I didn't know what else I could come up with since I was just as flustered about the sudden development as everyone else.

"... No, Jin, don't take all the responsibility on your own," Ume intervened, lowering my arm protecting her before turning to Ren, "I've been walking around as a Lizardmen even before I met Jin in hopes that I could find a suitable mate to help me save my kin that's in danger of extinction. The reasons are complicated, but I intended to carry this mission out without getting a lot of people involved. Things progressed so fast and there wasn't a good time to talk about it to you and the others, but still, keeping such a secret from you all, it may not be the right thing for me to do as the head wife of Jin’s harem. If you're angry about finding this out, I'll take the brunt of the blow, just don't be hard on Jin for following along with my wishes."

Ren held her head with both hands, "I, I don't know. Things are already crazy right now as they are, I don't know how to process all this ..."

"Aaaah!" A surprised scream resonated in the room, making the three of us jump.

"What is it now? We're trying to—"

"Jiiiinmaaaaaaa!" the source of the earlier scream, Nyra, squealed in delight as I was suddenly met with a pair of chocolate-colored tits slamming against my face, tackling me to the floor.

Thank god my defenses are stupidly high, because I was sure hitting my head on the floor like that would knock me out cold if they were normal.

"Jinma! I don't just have a body again, but I'm sexier than before!" Nyra exclaimed in excitement before pushing up her exposed breasts, "Look at these tits! Look at these curves! Do you wanna see how big my ass has gotten?! Even my voice became lower and dripping with sex appeal! It's like I'm on par with my birthplace's queen in beauty!"

Indeed, remembering how Pixies were first described to me, Nyra definitely has a bigger, more mature body than the standard. While I was happy that she somehow got a body after who knows how long, I was preoccupied with more pressing matters.

"I'm happy for you, Nyra, really, but—"

"In celebration of my new body, I believe I'm overdue for a good greeting like we do back home. Pucker up, stud!" Nyra interrupted before holding my face and planted her lips over mine, initiating our first kiss together. In my moment of shock, she quickly took advantage of the opening and shoved her tongue in my mouth, escalating our kiss from heartwarming to raunchy within seconds.

Holy crap, she's got some skills, I mentally praised Nyra's kissing techniques. She was practically sucking up the tense, anxious feelings I had moments ago. My body couldn't resist from how it lost all its strength from Nyra's passion.

After a couple seconds, Nyra pulled away, letting me fall limp on the floor below her, "Wooooo! I still got it, baby! Fuck, I'm in such a good mood I wanna greet everyone! Scalybutt! You're next, big girl!"

"H-Huh?! Wait, I don't think this is a good—mmph?!"

Without giving her a chance to refuse, Nyra lifted herself off me by her large wings and moved to kissing my Dragon Wife next. Just like before, Nyra forced herself into Ume's mouth with her tongue, giving a passionate, messy makeout session. The Dragoness, despite being as powerful as she is, had as much difficulty pushing the Pixie away as I did with how quickly she lost control of her body.

Not gonna lie, but anytime when yuri is happening in front of me is always a good one, in my opinion.

When Nyra pulled away a couple seconds later, letting Ume collapse on the floor, she placed her fingers on her lips while closing her eyes in thought, "Mmh, as expected of a Dragon's kiss to taste as delicious as this. Jinma's a lucky bastard."

"What is … happening right now?" Ren asked shakily.

"Wolfyyyy! Of course, I couldn't forget about you! Come here!" Nyra exclaimed before pulling a move that one would see from a prince or handsome lover in a romance movie, holding my Werewolf slave by the back as she was tilted near parallel to the floor. As soon as their lips touched, Ren's ears perked up, her tail straightened out, and all the hairs looked to be standing on end. Just like with me and Ume, the Werewolf's anxiety and tension in her muscles seemed to be sucked out during their passionate kiss.

When finished, Nyra abruptly dropped Ren on the floor and shivered pleasantly in place, "Mmh, I could taste the sweet nature of Wolfy's personality in her saliva. How delightful."

"Heey, aren't you going to give some of that love to me, too?" Obina asked dejectedly, totally going with the flow of the current situation.

"Goddess Obina! How could I possibly turn you down for anything?!" Nyra asked, "No, I should be the one begging to give some of my love to you, but to ask for something like that so selfishly, especially after bringing me back to life with that amazing fruit sauce, is it really okay?!"

Ah, so there was something in that fruit sauce that pulled Nyra out from the brink of death. That explains the one-eighty of boundless energy she has right now.

Obina giggled, "Nonsense. Any form of affection from Jinma or his companions, be it from love or lust, I will accept it all wholeheartedly."

"GODDESS OBINAAAAAA!" Nyra screamed in delight as she flew towards the voluptuous goddess without slowing down.

Then, by some ethereal power, Obina effortlessly caught the bigger Pixie in her hands before the two of them shared a kiss. Unlike the first few times with Ume and Ren, Nyra's kiss with Obina, whether by love or lust, the image held some form of unexplained beauty. It was like I was watching one of those European murals or paintings from the Renaissance back on Earth come to life, yet they still presented themselves as a priceless work or art.

In only a few minutes, Nyra somehow overturned the tense, serious air in Obina’s bedchambers and sucked it all up with her kisses, leaving Ume, Ren, and myself on the floor sapped of energy. I’m not sure if she intended such an effect or if she was just in that much of a kissy mood after getting her body. Heck, I don’t even know if she has some kind of power as a Pixie that saps negative feelings away. Whatever the case, I’m thankful to her for lightening things up a little. I especially didn’t dislike that amazing kiss she gave me, as well as the yuri show with Ume and Ren.

Still, that begged the question of why Nyra has that body, let alone a body at all. Obina mentioned the Immortals’ Monument took a rendition of our souls and manifested them into physical bodies here, in this realm. Going by Sue’s absence, this is only possible for Champions and those acknowledged as their companions, which is indicated by my Affinity Level with each person. Nyra, though we haven’t made such a thing yet, still came here with me, let alone have a physical form completely different from regular Pixies. Also, from her excitement, it seems she’s gained a body that bears resemblance to her queen. Finally, to top it all off, my tanto, the very thing Nyra was sealed in from her curse, is gone.

Despite how promiscuous Obina is, I seriously hope she was smart enough to have the answers to what’s going on here, along with what I should do with Sue.
