The Eminence in Smartphone

X Shadow Garden

The group walked through the forest. Touya was still unconscious, but the girls were more than capable of defending him if things got difficult. Noticing how alert they were, Alpha calmed them down.

"There is no need to worry. There is a road nearby, so animals usually avoid this part of the forest. We just have to wait."

"Wait?! Our friends don't have much time; wait for what?" protested Lu.

"Not what. Who." explained Alpha.

Almost an hour later, they heard a chariot coming closer. Touya's wives prepared for a fight, but Alpha calmed them down with a gesture.

"Don't worry. Our transport is here. Follow me."

Yae and Hilde dragged Touya as the others followed Alpha, Beta, and Delta's to the road. They noticed three elegant black chariots, with golden ornaments engraved on them and an elegant golden kanji on the door. All of the chariots were spacious and luxurious. But the biggest and more luxurious one was the chariot at the end of the group. Pulled by pure blood horses, the finest of the finest.

Touya turned his head and looked at the kanji. He was still weak and recovering, but was able to recognize it. "Mitsugoshi?"

"Keep your strength, Touya!" advised Sue.

He smiled weakly, when the chariots stopped and the drivers jumped out of the chariots, making a perfectly coordinated bow to Alpha, Beta, and Delta. They were all beautiful women, mostly elves, in black, elegant suits.

One of the women then ran to the last chariot and opened the door to a tall, beautiful elf in a cocktail dress with a thick neckline. Her hair was indigo blue, and she had a beauty mark under her lip.

"Alpha-Sama, Beta, Delta, I am so happy to see you. Master, it is always an honor! And of course, it is a great pleasure to meet you, honorable guests. My name is Gamma, and I will take care of your stay in our world. I am aware we have a situation in our hands, but don't worry. The Numbers are investigating as we speak, and we are getting as much information as possible. Before you realize it, we will locate those who dared to put their hands on Shadow-Sama's allies. And will be exterminated as they deserve."

Touya mumbled something, to which Gamma nodded happily. "It is an honor. Please get into the chariots."

She tried to exit the chariot, but as soon as she put a foot out of the chariot, she slipped and smashed her face to the ground.

The women in black went to help her, in synchronized and well-practiced moves. They helped her stand up and cleaned her face with handkerchiefs they prepared specifically for these types of situations. Smiling, and pretending that didn't happen, Gamma invited them to the chariots.

"Please, make yourselves at home, honorable guests. Shadow-Sama, this way."

Shadow walked to the biggest, more luxurious chariot, and Gamma followed him to fix him a drink. She turned to Touya and his wives for the last time, before closing the door. Someone gave an order, and the chariots made a turn to go back to the capital of Midgar.

...

Touya opened his eyes, and the first thing he noticed was the comfortable couch. This wasn't his bed; this bed was far more luxurious, and someone had spread some perfume on it. Was this a hotel, or something?

Then, seven voices shouted:

"Touya!"

Yumina, Elsie, Lindsay, Yae, Sue, Lu, and Hilde jumped to the bed and hugged him.

"Girls! Where are we? What happened?"

"We are at the Mitsugoshi company housing. Shadow Garden's headquarters." explained Lu.
