Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill Chapter 552 Coaxing

While it was time for them to depart, each of his women felt the sting of separation and longed to spend more time by his side.

The priority now was ensuring Teresa was fully informed about the situation.

Beyond that, there was a lingering hope that she might eventually gain mastery over her volatile abilities.

"Mom, I’ve prepared some gifts for both you and Diana," Vritra remarked once the five of them were shielded from public view.

"Gifts? Honestly, we should be the ones giving you something since you’ve just been married," Vanessa replied, her voice taking on a seductive lilt as she added, "When exactly would you like to collect your present?"

"Hmm, very soon. For now, take this," Vritra said, producing a scrap of fabric and passing it to his mother.

"What is this supposed to be? It’s far too small to be used for a dress..." Vanessa remarked, examining the material. It was awkwardly sized—too large for a simple handkerchief, yet too small for any practical garment.

"Divine gave those to me and mentioned you'd be able to figure out its use. It functions as a weapon and can also boost your overall strength," Vritra clarified.

Vanessa promptly stored the cloth within her inventory.

"I see. I'll examine it properly later. Thank you, honey," she said, leaning in to press a tender kiss against his lips.

"And Diana, this one is for you." Next, he revealed a heavy metallic door, though its dimensions were strangely miniature.

"Is this some kind of toy?" the goddess asked, tilting her head in confusion. However, her expression quickly shifted to surprise as she felt the potent energy radiating from the object.

"This is known as the Tomb of Gods. You can investigate it later as well," Vritra explained while handing it over. "Exercise caution and inform me if you sense anything hazardous."

"Understood. Thank you, dear." Diana stowed the door away and followed Vanessa’s lead, placing a kiss on his lips.

"Foxy, Fiona, I’ll have something for you next time. This was all I could get from Divine at the moment," Vritra promised.

"It doesn't matter, Master. The only thing I truly desire is you." Maeve wrapped her arms tightly around him, affectionately rubbing her cheek against his chest.

Patting her head, Vritra asked, "Foxy, do you know how many demon lords exist in total?"

Remaining nestled in his embrace, the fox demon answered, "Master, there are exactly one hundred demon lords who serve the five gods."

After a brief pause, she added, "There might be a few others waiting in the wings, but they are only officially recognized when one of the current hundred dies."

"I understand. That pig demon... he's still breathing, isn't he?" he questioned, recalling the events of the previous conflict.

While the other demon lords had perished in that war, the pig had somehow managed to cling to life, despite being in a wretched state.

"Yes, he is among the more powerful lords. From what I’ve heard, his strength has increased significantly since then," Maeve replied. She had become a literal fountain of knowledge for him.

Vritra found it incredibly easy to gather intelligence through her.

"I see. It’s about time we slaughtered that pig and seized control of the demon realms. Perhaps we'll keep a few demon lords as pets," Vritra declared.

To him, there was no distinction between humans and demons; they were all the same in his eyes.

"As you wish. Just give the word. I possess detailed information on every single one of them," Maeve stated with absolute confidence.

"Excellent work, Foxy. The World Information Center is far too small a stage for you. Let's make you the Queen of all demons instead," Vritra said, a small smile playing on his lips.

"If you’re the king, then I’ll gladly accept, hehe." The demoness tilted her face up and captured his lips with hers, her kiss lingering much longer than the others.

Just before pulling away, her tongue darted out to give his lips a playful, fleeting lick.

"Haa, Fiona..." Vritra turned his attention to the redhead, who looked visibly upset that she hadn't received any individual attention yet.

He pulled her into a warm embrace and whispered, "I’ll be heading to the Star Realm shortly. Why don't you join me there?"

"... " Fiona suppressed the urge to agree immediately. He had been showering Teresa with all his affection lately.

She craved that same devotion. Jealousy gnawed at her, making it difficult for the redhead to simply let him off the hook.

"If you don't have other matters to attend to, why not just stay here by my side?" Vritra suggested. Fiona was only slightly more composed than the others when it came to him.

"Won't your new bride be displeased?" she murmured, her cheeks puffed out like a squirrel as she remained in his arms.

"She won't. I'm going to explain everything to her soon. Regardless of what happens, my feelings for you will never waver. You don't actually believe you're inferior to Teresa in any way, do you?" Vritra asked, meeting her gaze.

"Of course I don't," Fiona snapped back, though her confidence wavered slightly since she hadn't seen the other woman's appearance yet.

"Heh. My dear Fiona, brighten up. We’ll have a new home soon, a place just for our family," he said, attempting to lift her spirits.

The marriage had happened so abruptly that he hadn't been able to spend quality time with his wives since his return.

"A house? Where exactly?" Fiona asked, her interest finally piqued. The idea of living in their own private home made her genuinely happy.

"That's a surprise. I'll show you once it's finished," Vritra replied. He knew he needed to be honest with Teresa and ensure that his wives' presence wouldn't jeopardize her safety.

"Honey, we'll be heading out now." Vanessa, Diana, and Maeve prepared to leave. Unlike Fiona, they had various administrative duties to oversee.

However, they would soon be unburdened by such tasks. Fiona rarely bothered with trivial matters anyway, and the subordinates were far too terrified of her to step out of line.

Her reputation alone was enough to keep anyone from plotting behind her back.

Eventually, only Fiona and Vritra remained.

"Darling, I want you," Fiona said, her eyes filled with longing.

"Just wait a moment, I—" Vritra began, but he was cut short when a soft weight slammed into his back.

"Hubby, I'm back! Did you miss me?" Yasmine cried out, hugging him from behind as if trying to recharge her energy after their long separation.

"Wifey, I'm glad you've returned. I missed you dearly." Vritra smiled, pulling Yasmine forward so he could hold both women at once.

"So, when are we leaving for the Star Realm?" Yasmine inquired.

"Tomorrow. We shall all go together," he answered.

"On another note, when are you going to make time for Fiona and me? I get that Teresa needs you right now, but you can't just ignore us, right?" Yasmine pointed out, unable to hold back her demands.

"I know, and I promise to spend time with you," Vritra assured her. Managing so many relationships was proving to be quite a challenge.

Nevertheless, he wouldn't trade it for anything.

"Let's go, I'll have them prepare—" Vritra started, but Yasmine cut him off.

"No need for that. I'd much rather stay in the fourth dimension so I can remain close to you."

"Me too. I want to be right by your side, darling," Fiona added, pressing a suggestive kiss against his cheek.

Yasmine immediately followed suit, kissing his other cheek.

"Fine, fine, have it your way," Vritra sighed, granting them entry into the fourth dimension.

It now felt as though two stunning ghosts were constantly hovering around him, but he certainly wasn't going to complain about the company.
