I was very satisfied with the night I had spent with my harem. It was the first time I had received a reward thanks to Valkyrie Training, and on top of that, thanks to Skill Hoarder, all the skills they had received so far that I didn’t have were now mine.

I was about to check the screen to see what gains our party had received, but a voice called out to me right then.

"Rick, come here~" Sarah called me over to a spot she had saved under the sheet, right in the middle of my Valkyries.

I couldn’t refuse such an invitation. I could check our progress while lying beside my wives. I didn’t hesitate even for a moment before lying down, where I was immediately welcomed by the red-haired young woman.

The spot Sarah had called me over to was right between her and Alicia. I slipped under the blanket and crawled until I was between the two young women, who welcomed me with smiles. Each of them hugged my closest arm and nestled her face against my body.

"My prince’s body is so warm," Alicia said, smiling to herself as she rubbed her cheeks against my arm. On my other side, Sarah was planting small, affectionate kisses on my arm.

I was very comfortable where I was. Although the night wind in the forest was cold, I was protected by the warmth of our campfire, a warm blanket, and the body heat of my wives as they hugged me—I couldn’t ask for anything better.

Both of them had their eyes closed, snuggling against me, ready to fall asleep at any moment. Knowing that I might fall asleep too, I decided to check our progress through the system.

There were still some stats I didn’t like. There were some imbalances here and there, but the one that stood out the most to me was Camula’s stats, which lagged far behind the others.

My plan was to create harmony between my Valkyries’ skills, stats, and fighting styles. With that in mind, the ideal choice would be to make Camula a tank, but her stats were still kind of strange.

Low Strength for someone who was going to stand on the front line, low Magic and Agility—all of it added up to a mess.

’Tomorrow, I’ll grind with her before we reach the city,’ I thought inwardly. ’I want her to be a little stronger in case something unexpected happens.’

My planning was interrupted by someone trying to start an argument.

"Hey, you two," Erina said in annoyance, with Sarah blocking her contact with me. "Don’t you think this is a little unfair?"

"What is?" Sarah asked, sounding a little irritated.

"You’re monopolizing Rick. What else could it be?"

"Ah, that," Sarah said, pretending she didn’t understand, then went back to nestling against my arm. "It’s not my fault there’s only enough room beside Rick for two people."

"Hey, we’re all Valkyries, so it’s not fair that only three of us get to cuddle with him."

"Erina is right."

"You too, Justine?" Sarah stared at the girl with glasses.

"There are six of us, so it would be fairer if we took turns with Rick’s body."

"Hey, hey. During sex, that makes sense, but while sleeping? How do you plan to do that? Are we supposed to wake up every two hours to switch positions on top of him?"

"Of course not. I wasn’t going to suggest something that stupid."

"Then what’s your idea?"

"Two sleep on top of him, and one on each limb."

"It surprises me that you think that idea isn’t stupid."

"But it doesn’t seem like such a bad idea if you stop to think about it," Diane said, breaking her silence beside Alicia.

"No way. That idea is completely ridiculous," Sarah shot back, but Diane didn’t seem to be listening to her.

After thinking a little about Justine’s idea, she sank beneath the blanket. The outline of Diane’s body moved down past Alicia’s waist.

"W-Whaah!" Alicia cried out in surprise. She moved her legs, accidentally kicking me in the shin.

"Ouch!"

"Ugh!" And from the sound Diane made under the blanket, she had also taken a hit from the princess.

"I’m sorry, my prince," Alicia apologized to me, stroking my arm.

"You didn’t need to kick my head, Alicia," Diane said to her, coming out from under the blanket with a hand on her forehead.

"W-What has gotten into you, Diane?!" Alicia grew nervous around her longtime friend.

"What was I trying to do? Obviously, I was trying to grab Rick’s leg."

"And what does touching my butt have to do with that?" Alicia was red, both from anger and embarrassment.

"Well, it was right in front of me, so I can call it an accident on the way there," said the white-haired girl with an utterly shameless expression.

At that moment, Sarah turned to Erina, who was lifting the sheet. She was probably about to follow in Diane’s footsteps.

"If you try to do something like that, a kick will be nothing compared to what will happen."

"Got it. Got it," Erina said, lying back down.

Sarah turned back to my side, thinking the disturbance had already passed, but by this point, she should have known that Erina was just as stubborn as she was.

"Waah!" The young woman beside me let out a surprised cry, almost imitating Alicia.

When I looked at her, two hands slipped under Sarah’s armpits and came to rest on her breasts.

"Erina!" Sarah called out the name of the woman groping her, clearly irritated.

"Hey, don’t get so mad. You’re going to sleep beside Rick, so if I sleep while groping your breasts, the universe balances itself out."

"Are you crazy or something?!"

"Normally, I’d use Justine’s boobs, but yours aren’t bad at all." Erina kept testing the texture of Sarah’s knockers. "Even though they’re smaller, they’re so soft that groping them is really relaxing."

Erina was right. There really was something therapeutic about groping Sarah’s mounds. I couldn’t deny that.

Justine then gave Erina a karate chop right to the head, and she stopped groping my Swordmaster. Her perverted hands, which had been full of energy before, now released the young woman and fell lifelessly.

Justine stared coldly at the unconscious Erina. "That should keep her asleep until tomorrow."

The way she did it made it seem like this was a recurring thing. I barely had time to worry about Erina before I suddenly felt a weight fall on top of me, accompanied by Camula’s pink hair.

"I want to sleep with Master too!" Camula said loudly with a smile on her face, while the weight of her body made it hard for me to breathe.
