Tyler welcomed Amanda’s arms and laid on her chest. It was comfortable and warm so he looked up at her with a smile and started to relax. He didn’t want to lie about anything but he knew he couldn’t tell anyone he was reincarnated in a new body from 2026 when it was the year 3334 in a new galaxy and planet. He felt his Eidolons started to return, which also comforted him.
"Amanda, they’re finally coming back. It’s nice. I don’t want to lose you, the other girls or any of them so thank you for comforting me and waking me up. Those aren’t fun thoughts or dreams to have," Tyler explained.
"I understand baby but nightmares are just dreams, mister!" She said cheerfully while booping his nose with her finger. "Sometimes they can be really bad but what you have here is real and you won’t lose us or them!"
He laughed and realized everyone was back inside of his body again.
"Thanks Amanda...I really appreciate it," Tyler smiled.
"Hope you all had a good night off or work. I need to talk to Amanda and it’ll be helpful for you to all hear as well," Tyler said cheerfully.
"The champ has some great news!" Ash chirped playfully.
"That’s good! I had a great time with Vox. You should see the realm now, it’s developing. It was good to get to know him," Alexandria said excitedly.
"You’re too kind. We did have a lot of fun, though," Vox chuckled. "She’s very smart, powerful and helped me design some things so you might notice a feminine touch."
"Welcome to my life!" Tyler said playfully. "Sometimes that’s the best balance we need."
’He’s so funny when he’s talking to them. I wish I could hear them sometimes but that’s his business. They come out and talk to us enough. He looks so cute even with all that muscle, that aura and that handsome face,’ Amanda grinned.
"Hey Amanda...can we bring the other girls in? I need to talk to all of you about something that happened before my dreams."
She noticed he looked a little nervous in his eyes.
"It must be important! Yes, let’s all cuddle!" Amanda smiled.
"This is one of the many reasons I love you very much. You’re so understanding and willing to include the others no matter what. You put yourself last too much but sometimes it’s a clever choice!" Tyler explained excitedly.
Amanda giggled and blushed. "Thanks, go get them! Love you too."
Tyler kissed her forehead and got up quickly. The ladies were hanging out in the living room chatting and watching a random movie. Tyler noticed it was already almost noon.
’Damn, I must have been absolutely wiped out. They all look beautiful and refreshed.’
"Hey ladies, you all look great today. Did you get a good night’s sleep?"
Kass was the first to respond, popping up and racing to him quickly with a big hug and kiss.
"Too good! It was amazing. I had a dream that we were on our honeymoon again. You and I were doing some really naughty things while scuba diving. I don’t know how it worked but it did!" She said while finally laughing and whispering to him, "I need you tonight baby."
"I’m sure we can work something out." He hid his lip movements by kissing her cheek.
"Yes babe but it would have been nice to cuddle with you too!" Sophie said cheerfully.
"I agree with what Sophie said. We both slept like rocks, I think. At least I did. I was out, I didn’t wake you up or anything, did I Soph?"
"Nope, I wasn’t waking up for anything apparently. It felt good though." Sophie laughed.
"I’m glad, hey, let’s all go cuddle with Amanda I have something to tell all of you," Tyler smiled.
They shrugged and were still in comfy, relaxed clothing anyway so they followed him into the room and they all got in the obnoxiously large custom bed.
Tyler explained his meeting with Athena and everything they talked about in that space. He would only reveal he was a reincarnation when it was the absolute right time.
The girls were listening intently and he noticed their reactions, the gasps, gestures, tightening up around him and most importantly, the beautiful, hopeful look in their eyes that they could all one day be something extraordinary.
"Let’s get that staff to level 10 as fast as we can. I wonder how much we could help you by training and sending our magic at you?" Sophie asked with an eager smile.
"That’s a good idea! We could give him a super buff if we through enough magic into it and it’s not like we’re low on Esper’s restoration potion. We’ve only gone through a jug and a quarter. We still have over 24 of them. We should go to the dojo today." Nyxara said.
It had been awhile since she dueled or fought and that’s what she usually did consistently and on a regular basis. The thrill of dominating her opponent, from getting stronger and from being number one as a princess all drove her strong-will.
"I wonder how big Bahamut is going to be on Vexara...that’ll be crazy!" Kass exclaimed excitedly.
"No kidding. Asura is going to be beautiful too. We don’t even know what she looks like in her non-Eidolon form. Ask Ash what she looks like and what she does?" Amanda smiled.
"I’ll leave it a surprise. You’ll want to see it for yourself. It’s quite unique," Ash smirked.
"Good to know."
"Tyler, you have no idea, it’s crazy how different she is than most beasts or whatever. I’m a kitsune and you have incredible summons. My dad is a god for a reason, that’s all I’ll say." Ritsu chimed in cheerfully.
"It’s going to be a surprise, even for me!" Tyler said cheerfully. "Can’t we cuddle and watch a movie first, please?"
They agreed to relax before training and picked out a movie to watch. Kass and Sophie were the ones snuggled up in the bed, turned on the TV and planned on trying to get the staff to level 10 later.

Zinnia walked out and checked in with the 10 or so people in the magically sealed hideout. Zed noticed her walking to the wall and using an ability. The wall opened in a different place than they came in, causing him to question what they spoke about earlier.
’What spell is that? I haven’t seen it and she said someone who is SS created it. Was she lying about someone setting a bunch of them up? Was this her setting them up?’ Zed thought with his imagination running wild and the list of things it could be expanding.
’Who is this woman and how is she so powerful? Maybe I couldn’t just charm her and make her kill herself.’
