The noble's district, Alex's home.
Although the bedroom never stopped emitting passionate noises, the room had now become silent except for a few light sounds of people panting.
Alex lay there on his bed with a face that looked like he truly and utterly understood what it means to be satisfied, he was practically shining at the moment.
Artemia lay next to his right side while Sera was on top of him. This scene alone was enough to tell people what happened here.
Feeling Sera's bountiful bosom pressing down against his chest, he let himself drown in the pleasure of this sensual sensation. If he had a cigar he would probably be puffing on it right about now.
Finally, he realized that something is not right about Artemia and Sera's behavior.
From their interactions until now, Alex didn't take them to be girls who would strip down by themselves and join in on a sexy session.
If he thought a bit about how Artemia and Sera behaved before and the status quo in the house, it was easy to come to that conclusion. In the end, Alex was not an idiot who can't use his brain.
He recalled the events that had led to his present circumstances and his jaw dropped.
Surely, Sakuya won't help him expand his palace harem just like this? She's the queen's right hand, why would she go out of her way to help?!
Thinking he knows her so well, it never crossed his mind that if Sakuya guessed his intentions, it was possible that she would do something like this.
Based on past interactions with her, Sakuya was probably out to screw him over.
Of course, this slipped Alex just like it did numerous times before. It didn't matter, he would come to regret his actions soon enough.
Giving up on thinking about it, he decided to put the thought aside and ask Sakuya all about it when the opportunity presents itself.
At roughly the same time, Maria, Sakuya, Saeko, and Luna who were holding onto a sleeping Gracier came out of their respective rooms.
They each had different expressions. Saeko was bright red while Luna looked like her usual gentle self. Meanwhile, Maria had her head lowered with a dark expression. Only Sakuya had a faint smile on her face.
Each of them looked at the same room upon coming out, specifically, Alex's room.
When Maria noticed that she couldn't find Alex, Artemia, Sera, or anywhere else. Her dark expression took on a darker shade. Miasma started coming out of her and Saeko moved back in fear.
They stayed silent for a bit before Maria and Sakuya moved their legs first and they headed towards Alex's room. The others followed soon after.

When consciousness returned to Alex, he sucked in a fresh breath of air. Rubbing his eyes, he sat up and cracked his bones that complimented him for sleeping so soundly.
Stretching his back, his vision started clearing up as he became more and more awake. But, when he saw the scene before him, his hands froze in the air.
He froze up stiff like a boulder. It was clear from his eyes that he was shocked by what he was seeing. He thought for a moment that he was dreaming.
Maria stood there in front of his bed with faint smiles but those eyes were furious as hell.
Saeko looked at Alex like she was looking at garbage. She was judging him so hard he could hear her thoughts. Luna seemed flustered now that he was awake, she wanted to say something but in the end, she couldn't and she just lowered her head while still holding onto a sleeping Gracier.
Sakuya amused herself with his reaction. She looked like she knows where this was going and she was going to watch it from the beginning until the end. Feeling a chill climbing up his spine, he looked around and saw that Artemia and Sera had disappeared before he woke up. They are already dressed and they stood behind the crowd without saying anything.
Only Alex could see that Artemia and Sera were very happy that misfortune was falling upon him. Alex's expression turned green, then white, then red, and finally black. He had a very complicated expression at the moment.
He was walking on sunshine before this and now he felt like he had been rammed into by a huge truck.
Maria suddenly laughed. It was a very beautiful smile. Why then, does he find his heart throbbing when he sees it?
"Say, Alex…"
She smiled at him.
"I think you have a Super Regeneration skill?"
An alarm went off inside him, it told Alex to run as fast as his legs could carry him but he endured the urge to do so while forcing a laugh out of his mouth.
"H-ha ha yeah I did, what about it?"
This time, Sera laughed. She had a very jubilant expression even while she said something that caused Alex to fall into despair.
"Hah, well isn't that nice, that means you won't break no matter what we do to you!"
She clad herself in lightning while a bunch of ice petals gathered in Maria's palm.
Seeing this scene, Alex became speechless. He more or less knew what was about to happen, begging for mercy wouldn't do him any good the only thing he could do right now was to lower his head and accept his fate like a man.
But not before he raised his head one more time in final defiance and he shouted a classic line from this world.
And then he got swept away with ice and a crystal blade.
Artemia, Sera, and Saeko retreated from the room. Three returned to their rooms satisfied by the divine punishment meted out to Alex while Luna and Gracier who woke up returned to her room because they don't have the heart to keep watching Alex anymore.
After a while, Maria left the room that still had the fallout from the wildest pants-off dance-off he had last night, they left the room pretty angry because she didn't even stop to close the door.
Alex sat on the bed with a gloomy look. He appears unharmed but judging from the anguish in those deep heterochromia eyes of his, he went through a hell he didn't ever want to see again.
While he looked unharmed, his Super Regeneration skill is as much a curse to him as it is a blessing. Let's just say he walked away from this experience with some lasting memories.
Meanwhile, Sakuya got closer to Alex and she caressed his face while whispering into his ear.
"Looks like the harem isn't as fun as you thought huh? Try to rein yourself in from now on mmkay? Danan-Sama.''
He looked at this woman in front of him who made him very happy and then very sad and he cried inside. He understood that this must be her revenge after the countless battle he won against her.
