I take a deep breath and sigh heavily as my mind leaves the pleasant, dizzy stupor of a good sleep. A groan leaves my lips almost immediately and I move my right hand to my forehead. I don't remember drinking so much as to deserve such a world-splitting migraine. In the first place, after getting my Primordial body, I haven't ever felt that much of the negative effects of alcohol anymore. It's very, very unexpected.

Everything is a little bit hazy too. I don't usually have any issues remembering things. And again, especially not after tiering up so much and becoming what I currently am. This must have been one hell of a party that took place... where? On the ship? In the new settlement of the Mermaids? In the water?

When the headache finally subsides to a bearable level, I lift my eyelids and stare absentmindedly at the unfamiliar ceiling spanning above me. It's made of wooden planks with an unusual colour, something like a much deeper and darker pink. Well, this is a world full of magic and such so it shouldn't be that surprising to find out about the existence of pink trees or something.

But, at the same time, that wood gives me a weird feeling of familiarity.

So, I move my eyes around and examine the rest of the charming cabin. There's a single, empty window south of the bed I'm currently lying on. I can see a fragment of the sky, which is also of a beautiful, pink shade. For whatever reason, the frame lacks glass or anything else that would protect the inside from the weather outside. Though, not even the faintest breeze seems to be disturbing its peace.

Looking more at the sides, I notice that all the furniture is made of the same wood. Some pieces are carved out of full logs and some are combined from planks. But, as I glance even lower, I finally realise that I'm not the only one under the sheets. A stunning woman with light violet skin lies by my side while snuggling her well-endowed chest into my arm, sleeping peacefully. Her crimson hair looks messy and an adorable frown disturbs her pretty forehead.

"Ailish?" I whisper to myself. "Where—"

The headache hits me again and I grunt in pain with a heavy grimace. Everything comes back to me all at once. All the details about the battle with the Sahuagins, the Kraken, the emperor, and then the evil goddess. But, one thing still remains unclear.

Where am I and how did I get here?

The last thing I remember is losing consciousness in the middle of the ocean. Though, I can make a quite simple guess after considering the dominant hues in this place and the presence of my lovely Succubus.

The voluptuous woman in question stirs softly and lazily opens her eyes. Since I've been looking at her calm but troubled face, they meet mine and we stare at each other for a few silent seconds. Then, her demonic pupils narrow into thin slits and she launches herself up into a sitting position, which gives an alluringly lively bounce to her generous bust.

"Master! You are finally awake!" A massive, relieved grin forces itself onto her luscious lips. "I thought you would never wake up..."

It falters a little as she bends forward and lays her forehead on my chest alongside her fists. I reach out to slide my fingers into her soft hair and brush through it gently.

"I'm alright. My head is slightly killing me, but it's bearable." I chuckle quietly. "What do you mean never wake up?"

The beautiful Succubus lady brings herself up again and shows a slightly hesitant smile. "It's been... a week since that day..."

My brows rise to my hairline. "A week? Holy fuck. No wonder everything is so hazy."

"Please, just continue resting for now. Don't move too much and just lie down. I know that you haven't yet fully recovered."
