Reincarnated as the Only Human

The four women approached me curiously, their hands still wrapped around their initial gifts as their disbelief at what I had given remained wound around their minds.

”This has been a long time coming, and I should have done it sooner, but I kept forgetting or I was busy. So... Yeah, I’ll do it now~! Though again, just like with the Focuses and most of the other things you’ve seen, keep mum about this, alright~?”

My ’smile’ made them all nod, which made me shift it to one of warmth instead of one of promise as I beckoned for them to come closer, continuing to speak and explain what was about to happen.

”I... have certain abilities that I honestly have no idea on how to explain, and one of them allows me to copy one of my own abilities and ’gift’ it to those that I am close to. As I’m sure you’ve noticed... Rhefia, Camara, Aethisia, and Kalia all have the ability to see and manipulate the Weave. That isn’t because they could do it themselves, but rather... because I can do it and I gifted that ability to them... alongside a few others. Ehretia and Aka too have some abilities of mine, since my children are given abilities naturally. However, I eventually found a way to copy it to those not directly related to me by blood; Rhefia was the first. And now I have a way to do it for more than just my first wife.”

Their eyes widened in shock as they clearly recognized where this was going, making me chuckle as I confirmed it for them.

”Sari, as my wife you’ll be receiving more, since that’s how this ability of mine works. Heila Prixisia, Yiksa, for now you’ll be receiving less than Sari, and even though you two are my concubines, I... would like to keep the dynamic as it is, if you understand? Perhaps if we bond more... Well, anyways, this allows me to grant not only my wives - my life partners - abilities, but also those that I consider family abilities too, so...

Anyways, for the time being, all four of you are getting the same three abilities; the ability to see the Weave and interact with it, the ability to close your tubes to prevent pregnancies, and something that makes your bodies more pleasurable to your partners. Sari, in addition to that I’ll be enhancing your abilities with anything that is a blade. So... come closer, you four.”

Their eyes only widened at my rushed explanation, and I chuckled as I started with Sari first, cupping her cheeks and activating [Skill Transfer] as I bestowed [Mana Sense], [Blade Proficiency], [Closed Tubes], and [Pleasurable Body] to her, the surge of warmth flowing between our lips as I transferred it with a kiss.

Sari gasped as she felt the warmth take root inside her body, and after a moment of blankly kissing me, she pulled back and stared at me in silence, her jaw slack as she looked at the bundle of threads coiling around my body.

For a brief moment I saw fear flash through those golden eyes, making me smile wryly as I nodded and said ”I know... I never really said it, nor do I recall if I showed it, but... I have Blood Magic and Dark Magic. Some... things happened a long time ago, and I awakened to Blood Magic first.”

Sari pursed her lips, the woman staring at me quietly for a moment more before reaching forwards and hugging me, surprising me as she muttered ”S-Sorry... just didn’t expect to see it... to see... all of this...”

I exhaled softly, a weight leaving my chest as I realized that seeing that fear scared me as well, and hearing her words reassured me.

”You can switch it off as well... just think about it and will it away. Do the same to see it all again.”

”I... I will. This... Astra... I don’t know what to say...”

The normally cocky Catkin was staring at her hands with a overwhelmed look, though when I saw her begin to pluck at the threads and play with them, I smiled softly as I made my way over to Yiksa.

The Dark Elf was smiling wryly at me from the words I said earlier, the woman who awoke one of the rarest and most despised Magics inside of me unsure of what to say as well.

”Yiksa... I never thought I’d be doing this, but... Things’ve changed, haven’t they? You’ve changed, and I appreciate that.”

She nodded, and just like with Sari I cupped her cheek and leaned forwards, kissing her deeply and finding it amusing that she kissed me back so passionately, the Dark Elf gasping as the warmth spread to her before going back for one more kiss.

At once her green eyes flickered, and she gasped again as she looked around, finding Kalia instantly as she smiled at our daughter, who was wrapped in a wonderful shroud of verdant green threads and smiling back at her Dama.

Patting Yiksa’s cheek, I moved towards Prixisia next, the Lamia leaning down and bringing her head closer to mine as she listened to me say ”I didn’t think I’d be able to ever do this, but it’s nice to gift everyone these abilities. We might not have the... deepest bond, Prixisia, nor the same amount of affection as everyone else, but you are still family. Either as a good woman to everyone, or as my concubine... So...”

My lips found hers, and we kissed softly as I gifted her the abilities as well, seeking out her forked tongue and transferring that warmth over before whispering ”Maybe we should rectify that soon...”

She nodded, her orange eyes shimmering as she remained quiet, her eyes widening as she began to look around at the world through a new lens.

Looking at her for a moment more, I turned towards the last woman, who was shuffling back and forth caressing her pregnant belly.

”Lastly... Heila. I won’t lie and say that I was always... perfectly content with your addition. It was rushed and improper on many levels, but I think Rhefia’s repented enough since then, and we’ve settled our differences. Besides, if there is one thing in this world that I can say I believe in whole heartedly, it’s that - unless there is clear issue - families should stick together. Rhefia decided that she wanted you in ours, and again, while it was a rocky start, I think you’ve been a wonderful addition. Just like your daughter will be as well, and perhaps the next~?”

Heila blushed at that, though she nodded as she whispered back to me, her voice raspy as she said ”I-I’m sorry... I-I was t-the one t-to blame for it all... I m-made her impregnate me, a-and-!”

Placing my lips on hers, I silenced her and gave her a reassuring kiss, staring into her watery eyes before coaxing her to calm down as I deepened the kiss, my hand sliding towards the back of her head and keeping her close.

Our kiss was certainly different from the others, but the Doe needed reassurance, and after a few moments of replacing her worries with lust, I pulled away and smiled at her, saying ”It’s fine, Heila. Really. I forgive you for that, and I forgave Rhefia for it as well. Besides, worrying too much could make this little one worry too.”

She nodded, looking down towards her stomach for a second before looking back up, activating her new ability.

I moved away as soon as she did so, allowing Rhefia to become her focus instead as I took what was certainly a distressing aura away from the emotional Doe, not wanting to scare her; without the Sight, no one knew what horrors lurked around me thanks to my choices, and I was content to keep it that way.

”With that... well, I guess we’re all truly family now, aren’t we?”
