Honey Window

When Sisi left to borrow clothes from Lucy, Asher sat down next to Elara. She rested her head on his shoulder as he wrapped his arm around her.

"I invited Ava to sleep with us today," he said, as images of the hot threesome that was going to happen crossed his mind.

"Of course you did," she snorted. "Can't wait to fuck an elemental?"

"It crossed my mind," Asher replied, smiling. "What about you? Haven't you thought about it? How would it be to kiss one?"

"I don't mind Ava joining us," Elara murmured, snuggling closer to Asher.

He smiled, resting his head on top of hers, just cuddling with his girlfriend in silence. When the dryad emerged from Lucy's room, she wore shorts that showed off her slim legs and a shirt that was a bit too big on her, especially in the chest department.

"It's strange to see you in your human form," Asher said.

"I can change," Sisi offered.

"Stay like that for now," he replied, wanting to be sure they didn't get in any trouble. "Do you want to go with us?" Asher asked Elara.

"No, I'll go train," she replied.

After a short goodbye kiss, Asher left the house with Sisi. As they stepped outside, she had the chance to see their world beyond the house for the first time.

She was looking around all the time, but there wasn't really anything interesting there, as they just walked to the Academy. But after they passed a thin line of trees, and Sisi spotted the big building, she stopped, staring at it. "What's that?" she asked.

"The Academy," Asher replied. "We study there."

"I have never seen something so big," she said, quickly catching up to Asher, her gaze shifting over the building.

"It's not even the biggest in the city," he said. "Sisi, when we're around people, try not to say anything that would reveal you're not from here. Actually, maybe don't speak at all for now. I'm not sure if the camouflage skill takes care of what you're saying too."

"Okay," she replied.

As they walked into the Academy, Sisi was looking in awe at the spacious room. The place was empty, and Asher suspected that most of the students went to a dungeon. He led Sisi to Rachel's office where she was waiting for them.

"Finally," the teacher said, looking at the dryad in her human form. "It's good to see you like that, Sisi."

"Umm... thanks," the dryad replied uncertainly.

"How did the night go?" Rachel asked, glancing at Asher.

"Great," he replied, a bit flustered at the sudden change of topic to the night of constant sex with Elara.

"Has she drained you completely, or do you have something left for your old, poor teacher?" Rachel asked.

"I'm okay."

"So why aren't you going to a dungeon?"

"The rest of the girls drank a bit too much yesterday, and they are a bit hungover. Nothing bad really, but I decided it would be better to skip a dungeon today, just to be safe."

"Oh wow," Rachel gasped. "Making a reasonable and safe decision? I'm positively surprised, and I think someone's trying to be on their best behaviour. Perhaps I should reward you for being such a good student," the teacher purred. "Encourage more reasonable decisions by positive reinforcement."

"And what would my reward be?" Asher asked with a smile.

"Why don't you come to my room in the evening and see for yourself?" she asked. "And you could bring some naughty girl that we could both teach how to be responsible."

"I have a perfect candidate," Asher replied, thinking about Lucy. He wondered how Rachel managed to time her suggestions so perfectly, but then realized she was probably just talking about whoever ended up too hungover to go to a dungeon.

"Unfortunately, I don't have time right now for some fun," Rachel said. "Unless you want to just talk, then I can spare ten minutes."

For a moment Asher wanted to suggest that in ten minutes they could do much more than just talking, but decided against it. Sisi was with them, and she wanted to wait with sex. And he preferred to wait till evening to have proper fun with his teacher, rather than a quick fuck in her office.

Without anything to talk about with her, Asher and Sisi left Rachel's office. He showed her around the Academy, but there wasn't anything amazing there, just a bunch of classrooms. Then he led her to the training square and explained they were training there.

"There's not a lot to show around here," Asher said, as they began heading back to the house. "But if you want, I can show you the city one day."

The dryad looked at him and nodded after a moment of thinking. After they had entered the house, she asked, "Can I turn into my normal form now? It feels weird to be... like this." She raised her hands, indicating her body.

"You see yourself as a human too?" Asher asked.

"Yeah."

"You can change, of course, but keep the camouflage up for the non-harem members."

"Always," Sisi replied. Her skin and hair turned into a green shade as her face changed slightly. In less than a second she was looking normal again.

"Better?" Asher asked.

"Very."

"I'm going to the square to train," Elara said, emerging from their room, walking past them to the exit, exchanging a small kiss with Asher.

Asher glanced at Sisi, unsure what to do with her. He wanted to hang out with Naomi, and while Lucy was sleeping or sulking in her room, he didn't know who he should leave the dryad with. Perhaps he could just leave her to be on her own.

"Maybe I'll go to sleep a bit if that's okay?" Sisi asked, as if sensing his dilemma.

"Are you okay?" he asked, worried that she was still feeling bad after the previous night.

"I'm fine, just a bit tired."

"Sure, there's an empty room upstairs, if you want to take it," Asher offered. With him and Elara sharing the room, one remained unused.

"I'll go to Lucy," the dryad replied.

"As you wish."

They stood in front of each other in silence, Sisi just looking at him, and as he wondered what she was waiting for, only one thing came to his mind. He stepped closer, leaned down, and tasted her sweet lips, kissing her shortly.

She returned it, her lips moving against his, but she quickly pulled away and practically ran toward Lucy's room, getting inside.

Asher was a bit surprised she wanted to sleep with Lucy after the previous night. But she had also told him that she wasn't blaming the pink-haired girl and it was her own fault she got so drunk.

He knocked on Naomi's door, but when no one answered, he texted her asking if she wanted to help him with archery training. She was up for it, but needed ten minutes to prepare, so he just relaxed, lying on the couch in a moment of peace without any women around.

His eyes closed on their own, but it was only like a second before someone grunted. When he opened his eyes, Naomi was standing over him with her new bow in hand. "Sorry, were you sleeping?"

"No, just resting. Are you ready?"

After she confirmed, they headed toward the training square. On his way, he noticed Ava sitting on the grass behind their house, with her eyes closed, as two elementals fought against each other in front of her.

"They are really amazing," Naomi said, looking in the same direction as him.

"Yeah," Asher replied. "How are you feeling?" he asked, realizing that he had talked with Lucy, Ava, and Madelyn, but didn't have an opportunity to talk with Nami.

"The headache stopped," Nami replied. "Just a bit tired."

"We don't need to train now, if you want to rest," Asher offered.

"No, no, it's okay," she quickly protested. "I'll just go to sleep earlier today."

"Okay, did you enjoy the game?"

"Y-Yeah, it was... fun."

"I like the photo from you," Asher said. "You looked really cute in it."

"Oh my god! Stop! I was so drunk," Naomi gasped.

"I could tell," he chuckled. "But anyway, you looked cute."

Naomi blushed, averting her gaze as she murmured, "Thanks." They walked in silence for a moment before Naomi asked, "Do you have any experience with bows?"

"Not a lot," Asher sighed. "You should assume that I had never held one in my hands."

"No worries, we'll start with the basics," Nami replied, as they entered the Academy, but it was only to pass through it to the training square, where Elara was jumping around one of the training dummies, striking it with her daggers.

The rest of the square was empty, and they had the shooting ranges completely to themselves.

"So, how do we begin?" Asher asked.

"Actually, just shoot at the target, and we'll go from there," Naomi replied.

"Don't have your hopes up," Asher said, focusing on his ring to create a bow. The arrow that he released flew too far to the side and didn't even reach the target, as he aimed too low.

"It's not so bad," Naomi said. Then creating her own arrow, she proceeded to show him how to position his hands and body. But when she released her arrow, it flew above the target and struck the wall behind, as she had missed her shot by a lot.

Asher shifted his gaze from the missed arrow to Naomi, who had her cheeks blushing furiously.

"I-It's because of the bow," Nami murmured. "I-I haven't used it before, and it has this enhancement that makes the shots more powerful. I-I didn't know it would be so strong."

"Don't worry," Asher replied. "It was flying straight into the center of the target. Look where my arrow hit," he said, even though his arrow was no longer there, as it vanished soon after hitting the ground and returned to his bow as a light ball.

Naomi glanced at him, but then quickly summoned a new arrow, and this time it hit inches above the center of the target.

"Good job," Asher said. "A few more shots, and you'll be hitting dead center every time."

"It's really strong," Naomi whispered, looking at her bow. "I have much better range with it now."

"Great," Asher said, waiting to see if she would test it again, but she turned toward him.

"You were supposed to train," she said.

"Yeah," he sighed. "But it's much more pleasant to just watch you doing it." He created a new arrow and tried to use her tips to position himself and the bow better. This time the arrow reached the target, but flew past it on its side.
