A Journey Within the Realm

Once again, here I was, wearing my robe’s hood and being called Ronnie. This time, the girls told me not to speak and stay in the back. Miki was at the front desk while Rin and Kyoko held my arms so I wouldn’t escape. What happened to their minds to want to do this!?! I have a slight guess that they couldn’t fight off the urges to see a naked man. Sure, Nori may just be curious, but the others are just horny. Horny? Oh, God… I hope not. You never can guess what a group of horny women can do to a single man. Believe me… I have seen the videos. Don’t believe me? Go on the internet when you are over 18. Trust me… it’s there. I heard a door open and saw the clerk walk over to the desk.

“Why, hello,” The clerk said, “It’s nice to have customers today. Everyone else is too busy preparing for tonight’s grand bazaar. Well… there was one person. Anyway, how may I help you?”

“We would like six passes to the hot springs, please,” Miki answered.

“Wonderful,” the clerk sang, “That will be 60 gold coins.”

“’60 gold coins!?!’” Miki exclaimed, “Why so much?”

“Because, Silly… they are lifetime membership passes,” the clerk cheered.

“Lifetime,” everyone exclaimed, “Cool!”

Miki took out our money funds and pulled out the exact change. After the clerk made sure it was the right amount, she reached inside a drawer, pulled out six membership cards, and handed them to Miki. Once Miki handed us our own cards, the clerk noticed Shina.

“Excuse me, Ma’am,” the clerk said, “That Kitsune can’t be in the hot springs. She will have to wait on the stone next to the springs. Don’t worry, she will still be in plain view. Plus, she doesn’t need a membership!”

“Thanks. We will make sure she doesn’t go in,” Miki replied.

The clerk bowed as we walked into the locker rooms. Once inside, the girls wrapped a towel around me and undressed me without a second glance. They told me to wait as they stuffed my clothes inside a locker and began undressing themselves. I covered my eyes while they were doing this. After they were done and had towels on, they dragged me into the room where the hot springs was and threw me in. Then they took off their towels and got in with me. I quickly looked away, and that’s when Miki swam over and yanked the towel I was still wearing. Instantly, I lowered my body into the water until it was at neck height. All the girls giggled.

“Don’t be shy, Randy,” Miki said, “Be a man and enjoy it!”

“That’s easy for you to say,” I complained, “Now, if you don’t mind, I’m going over to the other side of these rocks.”

All the girls giggled as I swam to the other side. Once I was there, I rested by leaning on the side of a rock. I sighed. Even if the girls wanted me to join their little fun, I was too much of a gentleman to do that sort of thing. I’m one of people who like to wait until they are married before they do any funny business. I decided to stay out of view of those girls until they were finished relaxing in the springs. Just then, I had the strangest feeling that I was being stared at. I looked to my right. Nothing. Then, I looked above me. Still nothing. It was when I looked to my left that I saw something. To be precise, someone. Right there, beside me, was a beautiful woman with blue hair and orange eyes. Just my terrible luck, she was standing up so her top half was showing.

“I’m so sorry,” I quickly said, turning around, “That was very rude of me.”

“Who are you?” she asked, “And… what are you?”

“My name is Randy Nelson,” I answered, “I’m what you call a man.”

“A man?” she repeated, puzzled, “Like the ones from our distant past?”

“Yes, Ma’am,” I replied.

“You must be a noble man if you look away from a naked woman,” she said, “I thank you for that, kind sir. And are those people giggling your friends?”

“Yes,” I answered.

“You must be very kind,” she replied.

“That and the fact that I’m a light mage,” I added, “They are suppose to help me save the Magic Realm. However, right now they have been teasing me with their bodies. I think they are trying to use me for their own lustful urges.”

“That’s terrible,” the woman said, “Wait a minute… did you say that you are a light mage?”

“I did,” I answered.

“That’s wonderful,” the woman exclaimed, hugging me.

I let out a short scream. The woman quickly let go and backed away.

“Forgive me, Randy,” the woman said, embarrassed, “I just got a little excited.”

“That’s okay,” I replied.

Suddenly, all the girls came rushing over. I quickly covered my eyes.

“What happened!?!” Miki exclaimed, “We heard you scream!”

“It’s okay,” I answered, “This lady just accidently hugged me.”

“I bet it was okay,” Kyoko joked, “What is your name, Lady?”

“My name is Miwa,” the woman replied, “Who are you guys?”

“Allow me to make the introductions,” I said, still covering my eyes, “Miwa. Meet Miki, the elf, Kuri, the fairy, Nori, the ghost, Rin, the witch, and Kyoko, the vampire. These are my friends.”

“Nice to meet everyone who is Randy’s friends,” Miwa replied, “Even though they are trying to do lustful things to a man who wants to do the noble thing and wait until he is married to do them.”

“Before anyone comments on that statement, can we please get dressed so I don’t have to worry about seeing anything I don’t want to?” I asked.

“Go ahead, Randy,” Miki answered, “We had our fun. Go and get dressed first. Then, wait for us at the front desk. Take Shina with you.”

“Thanks,” I replied, blindly swimming towards the exit.

After I was sure that there was no women around, I uncovered my eyes, found my wet towel still floating near the edge of the spring, wrapped it around me, and got out of the water. Then, I walked over to Shina.

“Let’s go, Shina,” I said, “Miki told me to take you with me.”

Shina meowed as she followed me inside to the locker rooms. After I got dressed, I took Shina and entered the room with the front desk. The clerk looked up at me and was about to say something, until she saw what I was. That when I noticed I was not wearing my hood.

“Umm… you’re not a woman,” the clerk said, confused, “What are you?”

I gave a weak laugh, “Uhh… yeh. You see… I’m a man.”

“Get real. A man?” the clerk repeated.

“I’m afraid so,” I replied.

“Heh heh… I just sent a man into the hot springs with six women. How interesting…,” the clerk said to herself.

After she said that, I watched as her eyes rolled into the back of her head and she fell to the floor face first. I walked over to the desk and peered over to check on the lady. Once I saw that she was fine, I turned to Shina and chuckled.

“Well, Shina. It appears that the clerk has fainted from the sight of me,” I said.

Shina meowed in agreement. The two of us waited for about ten minutes for everyone, including Miwa, to enter the room fully dressed.

“Where’s the clerk?” asked Miki.

“She’s taking a little nap behind the counter,” I answered, chuckling, “She kind of fainted when she saw that I was a man.”

“Speaking of which,” Miwa began, “I still don’t quite understand everything. Why don’t we go to my farm so you guys can explain the whole ordeal to me in private?”

“I think that would be for the best,” I replied, “Lead the way.”

Miwa nodded and started walking out the door that lead outside. We all followed her to her farm. Her farm was very close to the hot springs. It was a small farm, only big enough to grow two to three different crops.

“What do you grow, Miwa?” I asked.

“Different types of magical mushrooms,” Miwa answered, “However, lately, they have been doing poorly.”

Just then, Shina walked over to Miwa and meowed.

“I can’t believe what I am seeing,” Miwa exclaimed, “A Kitsune! You’re friends with a Kitsune!?!”

“Yeh. Her name is Shina,” Miki replied.

Shina meowed a couple of times.

“You will help my mushrooms without any offering?” Miwa asked Shina, “Thank you so much!”

I watched as Shina walked over to the mushrooms. When she reached the field, Shina started to glow brightly, causing rays of light to shine down onto the crops. After the light faded, Shina stopped glowing and walked back to us. She then, meowed once more at Miwa.

“Thank you for letting me know,” Miwa said to Shina, “You are very kind.”

“You can talk to animals?” I asked.

“Oh, yes,” Miwa answered, “All the goddesses in Triharvest can. That’s how we can communicate with the Kitsune. You see, the Kitsune help us with our crops if we give them offerings. Once they accept the offering, we let them know what needs their help. Sadly, we haven’t seen many Kitsune around the town. It’s strange though. The Kitsune always stay near Triharvest.”

Shina meowed a few times.

“What!?!” Miwa exclaimed, “You say that Kei has been capturing your kind and draining their powers in order to become stronger. What happens to them after they are drained?”

Shina meowed.

“Oh no! They die if they have no powers!?!” Miwa yelled, “How many are left!?!”

Shina meowed.

“Oh… you poor thing…,” Miwa said, shedding a tear.

“What?” Miki asked.

“Shina says that she is the last of her kind,” Miwa answered, “If it wasn’t for Randy, the Kitsune would be gone forever.”

I kneeled down and held out my hand. Shina walked over to me and started rubbing the hand.

“So, that’s what you were trying to tell me when I rescued you,” I said.

Shina meowed.

“Should we head inside so we can talk?” I asked, standing up.

“This way,” Miwa replied, walking towards the house.

We followed her into the house. It was a quaint house and very clean too. In a single room that covered the whole floor, it had the kitchen, a family room, and stairs leading upstairs. Also on this floor was the door leading into a bathroom. The door was open and I saw that this bathroom didn’t have either a bathtub or a shower. The full bathroom might be upstairs next to the bedroom.

“Nice house,” I said.

“It’s enough to keep me alive,” Miwa replied, sitting down at the kitchen table, “Please, sit down.”

Kuri sat down on the table while the rest of us sat on the chairs.

“Soooo… ask us what you want to know,” I said.

“Let’s see… how about where you came from,” Miwa replied.

“A good place to start,” I said, “I came from a place called the nagical world. I was transported into this realm by a book titled ’The History of the Magic Realm.’”

“If you came from the nagical world, how did you find out that you were a light mage?” Miwa asked, “Tell me your whole journey so far.”

We told Miwa what has happened so far. After we were done, Rin asked about the whole ‘Timmy down the well’ and calling Miki ‘Silver.’ I explained that those two were from something I called television and that one was from a movie while the other was from a show.

“Wow… you been through a lot since you arrived in this realm,” Miwa said, “And after listening to your tale, I would like to join your quest.”

“I thought you might,” I replied, “Welcome to the team, Miwa.”
