Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties

"Alright." Liz nodded. "Hm… So wait, let's circle back. It was about the conversation we had about Roka, but not about Roka."

"Yeah…"

"Who… Who is it about then?"

"..."

"Wait, did it already happen with someone else?"

"Well… That's what I wanted to talk to you about-"

"Who?" Liz asked, suddenly bringing her face much closer to his. "Who?"

"Well…"

"Was it Raya? Or Rea? Or… It wouldn't be… It wouldn't be one of the guys, would it?"

"No, not one of the guys."

"Then which is it? Raya or Rea?"

"..."

"Which is it? It is one of them, right?"

"..."

"Is it not one of them?"

"No… It's not one of them."

"Wait… You don't mean… You don't mean what I think you mean, do you?"

"I think I do mean what you think I mean."

"There's no way! What the fuck? Both?!"

"Um… I mean… Yeah, I guess you could say-"

"Wait, wait wait…" Liz rubbed her face, trying to wrap her head around it. "So you're… Wait."

"..." Cero waited patiently.

"Lith, me, Raya, and Rea? What is… Wait, Rea?! Raya I can understand, but Rea?!"

"You hate her that much?"

"I don't hate her! I don't hate her at all! But like… That's a horrible choice!"

"..." Cero could only press his lips together silently.

"I mean… Wait so you've already been with both them? But then you tell me that I get a say?"

"That's um… That's kind of why I said that I wasn't completely honest yesterday. Well, it's not like I lied. But… I do want to be completely honest with you so…"

"But Rea? Really? What do you even see in her?"

'A succubus' tendencies, kinky as fuck, great ass.'

The Paru rubbed his chin.

"I don't really know. I mean… It's tough to answer questions like that, isn't it?"

"Well…" Liz tilted her head. "Yes, I suppose. Still… Rea… I'm shocked."

"Yeah, I can tell."

Liz immediately frowned.

"Well then, I assume what you said about me having a say wasn't just an empty promise."

The Paru scratched his neck, before slowly pushing himself up.

"It wasn't."

"Then what if I were to exercise that right now?"

"Do you want to do that?"

"I'm just saying… Like… If I wanted to do that."

"If you don't want to, then what's the point of asking?"

"Because I want to know!"

"You know I can just tell you what you want to hear, right? Especially if it's theoretical."

"But you won't, right?" Liz stared him dead in the eyes. "You won't… Because you want us to be completely honest with each other."

"Yeah, I do."

"So… What would you do? If I told you… No, if I asked you…?"

"Hm… Well, I don't want to, for one." The Paru whispered as he lay a hand on Liz's cheek. "But… Yeah, Rea… I could agree with that. But Raya… I don't think I can."

"Why…" Liz gulped. "Why not?"

"I like her a lot and… I owe her a lot. I like Rea a lot too but… Well, hypothetically, that's what I would do, maybe."

"So you really like Rea?"

"I do, yeah."

"Even though she's a spoiled brat?"

"Haha." Cero chuckled. "Yeah, I guess she is a bit of a spoiled brat."

While the Paru lay back down with the back of his head on her thighs, Liz looked away for a moment, staring at the horizon.

"You said that we would be together. That we would stay together after this, after going back to Wor…"

"Yes."

"What about them? Rea and Raya?"

"Haven't really discussed it with them seriously."

"Do they… Know about us?"

"No. I wanted to talk to you about it first."

"So basically… It's who we will be with later…"

"Yeah, I guess."

"Well…" Liz pressed her lips together, blushing slightly. "I have been with them for a while now. We didn't kill each other during that time, so I doubt it'll get that bad later."

"You think?"

"Yes, I do…" She whispered. "It's a bit weird since I know them but… Raya, I do like. Rea, not so much but…" Liz shrugged. "Mmm… Well, if you like her, then I trust your judgment."

"You do?"

"Ha! Why do you sound so surprised?"

"What makes you trust my judgment?"

"Well, you chose me, didn't you?"

The Paru's hand stroked her cheek as he sat up.

"I sure did…" He whispered, his lips an inch away from hers. "I guess I did exercise excellent judgment."

"See?" Liz chuckled, her gaze slowly moving from his eyes to lips. "Being able to recognize that is also excellent judgment."

Their lips met, and it didn't take long after that for Liz's back to reach the ground.

Just like it didn't take long after that for their clothes to come off.

"I feel like I'm forgetting something…" Roka whispered to herself, staring into the horizon. "Something that I did yesterday. Something I was sure I was going to regret…"

"Isn't being unable to walk or talk properly enough? Drinking that much should already be regretful enough, no?" Al suggested.

"No. I think it was something more precise and…" Roka frowned suddenly, realizing whose suggestion this was. "Fuck off. Get back to your position."

"Ugh, fine."

The Commander let out a sigh.

'What the hell was it…? Something I thought I would definitely regret the next day…?'

***

"So you see? That's the most important part about being a Navigator. Judgment calls are a daily occurrence. No, an hourly one. No… A… How do you say that? Anyways, you get what I mean, right?"

"Uwaaaa…" Lith yawned.

"Yeah, that's right." Rea nodded. "Anyways…" She looked around for a moment. "Since when are we outside? Damn… Wait, when did you jump in that river? Waiiiit… That's your hair! Hahahaha! Oh, damn. I really thought you… What happened to your skin? It's so glowy. Did you get oiled up or something? Heeeeell no! I'm not into women, alright? Don't get oiled up for me. I will literally bite my tongue if you get too close!"

Meanwhile, Lith was seated at the other end of the cell, shaking her head silently.

Sometimes, she found her mate's judgment… Dubious.
