Breeding Day (Part 4: The Event Actually Begins)

My feet were making dents in the brick.

The guild doors were the only thing holding back the horde of women from hunting down Kazuma and ravaging him for all he's worth, literally. My back was to the wall while I used all my strength to keep the doors closed. It was an intense struggle. Not only was I up against so many horny women, but there were also those like Bova and Oulan in there, who had monstrous strength to call upon. But I'd win. I had to, for Kazuma's sake.

"Darkness, we need to run."

The sudden shock of him appearing next to me almost made me lose my grip on the doors.

"Kazuma?! When did you-?! Nevermind, everyone in the Guild got influenced by Luna's plans but it was too much! Nnng! If I don't hold them back you'll be torn to shreds! You run now!" I yelled, pushing back as hard as I could while my love...stood his ground.

"No! I need you!" He pleaded with me. Admittedly, my heart still skips whenever he says things like that. "The world's gone absolutely sex crazy! Even the Axel Hearts have become the fucking 'Axis Hearts' and want me to breed the whole town! I had to act my heart out or else Xara would’ve sensed my fear! If we want to escape with our wallets intact, we need to get out of town!"

"You can run while I stay behind! I'll be your wall!"

"I don't need a wall right now! I need my girlfriend!"

...

Everything slowed down to a crawl. I let the doors go, grabbing Kazuma tightly in my arms to protect him from the women about to burst through, while also providing the hug he so clearly needed from me. There was no way I couldn't have embraced him there... but I knew it wouldn't last long as the doors slowly op-

SLAM

"Ugh, this is one of Svobena's messes, isn't it?" Sylvia sighed while ensnaring the door shut with multiple brown tentacles. "I'll fix this, just give me a minute."

It was a little anticlimactic after the fear we both had, and we released the hug as a few other women encircled us.

"Aww! What a cute couple you two make!" chirped Erika.

"Sorry, were we interrupting something?" Lia asked, a slightly concerned look on her face.

The two of us gazed at each other. "We should probably talk, please excuse us." said Kazuma while dragging me just out of earshot from the group at the front door of the guild to go near the closest tree.

“Nice outfit by the way.”

“Oh, thanks,” I smiled, looking down at the guild work uniform I was wearing. My sexy date dress definitely needed a wash after everything that happened last night, so now I was squeezing into a white shirt that was a few sizes too small for me. My shoulders were bare, my tummy in sight, a massive cleavage to match Luna’s, a tight red bow around my neck, and under the skimpy booty shorts that failed to contain my rear were two long pairs of socks that struggled to get past my knees. I gave him a little spin before awkwardly admitting, “I borrowed it from Luna… before everything in there happened.”

I could tell he enjoyed it… but something far heavier was on his mind.

After a moment of staring at each other again... we started hugging once more, this time sinking to our knees in unison.

"Sorry... It's just been a helluva day." He sighed quietly, nuzzling into me while the world kept on going. "I thought I had a change of heart about Breeding Day, but walking over here my brain kept freaking out about money, and going to jail, and what happens to you if I can't pay it all..." I stroked his back and he squeezed me tighter, "...so I just ran here. I was so wrapped up in my own head about what to do, that I think I really just wanted to…hear from you. It's dumb, I'm sorry-"

He wasn't going to pull away from my grip that easily, "Kazuma, please. You know it makes me very happy to hear you want my opinion." I reassured, "I'm scared too. Do you think we can raise the money in time?"

"I dunno. I wanna say I can, but this isn't a one-time payment. We'll need to come up with ways to make money long-term as well."

"Sena did mention that the first payments will be made when they can prove that the children are indeed yours. So we at least have a grace period before pregnancies start showing."

He nodded, sounding a little more secure. "That's something I guess... not much of a provider, am I?"

"Stop that. This isn't something either of us thought would happen." I scolded his deprecation, "I'm just sorry that it was my stupid slut brain that put you through all this. If I hadn't started this Harem Knight thing then-"

"Then Xara and Wiz would still be lonely. Tifa would be in bed with some creep. Sylvia would be terrorising that village, and none of the monster girls would be citizens." Kazuma informed, seemingly scolding me right back. I suppose neither of us liked the other's insecurities. "Like it or not, we haven’t done a terrible job. It just sucks that we're going to jail for not being made of money."

It's weird hearing one's accomplishments in the field of perversion. We really had done something fantastic in the past week, haven’t we? Tomorrow I will be giving my earrings back, as that was the end of Vanir's 'trial period'. I had hoped Breeding Day could be my final send-off to this wet dream come true, but the after-effects were simply too grand to ignore.

"And here I thought I could be the dream hentai protagonist. Solving problems with my dick and being funded by the government to do it... man, why'd they make their bursary so fucking small?!"

With a small sigh, I agreed. I was still confused by all the new rules and regulations I had inadvertently created in this world, like the bursary and how much it would really give all the women. All we knew was that it had something to do with going to the Harem Knight Gala later... where we would be meeting back up with...

"Wait... what if the government was willing to give us more money? What if we ask Iris for help-?"

Kazuma's eyes opened wide, as if my idea had come from the heavens themselves (though having been there in person and seeing the corruption myself, I’m unsure if that analogy still works). He slammed his hands on either side of my face and squished it tightly in his hands. "Say that again..."

My lips barely had room to make the sounds, "Asthking Irith?"

"THAT'S IT!" He yelled, hopping out of our hug and letting go of my face to jump to his feet. "Iris freaking loves me! I'm her super special Onii-chan, she'd never send ME to jail! Especially for something that's technically her family's fault!" The happy adventurer began pacing in thought, "All we have to do is go there later, tell the gala that we've been helping the Kingdom by breeding everyone in Axel, and then they'll give us a HUGE pay increase!"

Iris was the capital's Princess and current leader while her father and brother fought on the front lines. A young blonde girl with desires to see the world, she was easily swayed by Kazuma's eccentricities when they first met. He'd almost stayed with her forever in the palace, but after I dragged him out of there and a snafu involving a royal ring, he was finally convinced to return to us in Axel (albeit not before a lot of whining on his end). I'd known Iris for longer though, as my father is one of the King’s advisors, so we’ve spent a lot of time together over the years. Unlike Kazuma, I feel like I actually have a claim to her being almost like a little sister to me.

"With logic like that..." I mumbled, quietly at first before a surge of pleasure spiked through me, "...it'd almost be better if we DID breed everyone in the guild!" I nodded excitedly, sharing Kazuma's enthusiasm and jumping to my feet. "That way, we’d have proof that we're the best Harem Knights Belzerg has seen in years! Show them that the scheme was such a success, they can increase our bursary to support all the new heroes for the royal army!"

Kazuma clapped and hopped around in excitement, "Yes, yes, YES! Why was I even worried to begin with?! Iris will sort everything out! She's a good kid, and a great little sister after all." Kazuma haughtily laughed before seemingly realising something. Staring at the door Sylvia was still holding back with growing interest, he wondered aloud, "So... I really should just go through with Breeding Day then, right?"

I couldn't exactly hold off my own interest either, "Iris does seem like a safe bet right now. Between the two of us, she has to say yes. So…it'd be a bit of a waste to ignore the plethora of women wanting to have sex with you…"

At that moment, as we both came to a silent agreement, we performed our very first fist bump together, a strange custom Kazuma had taught us from his homeland (although I let him do most of the work out of fear of punching him on reflex). I had seen him do it with Megumin and even Aqua on occasion, but never with me. Such a small act, while simple and probably insignificant to him, made my heart flutter once again at how much we’ve connected this week. Perhaps there’d be more of these fist bumps between us in the future? I suppose we’ll have to see…

Anyway, with complete agreement between us, we hurried back to the rest of the group. Sylvia had drilled a small hole in the wood of the door and sent a tentacle through to the other side. She appeared to be searching around the mess of groaning women with an intense look of concentration.

"AHA! Found her!" She suddenly shouted, and even from here I could feel a sudden shift in the mentality from the guild. The groans no longer saying 'Kazuma' and instead just groaning in general. "Okay, I've got Svobena by the head, so I can activate her powers and tone down the mental manipulation a bit. But they’ll still be feeling horny ‘cause of the aphrodisiacs in their system.”

“They all signed waivers, they’ll be fine.” I brushed off, suddenly realising something, “Although, before you make them feel better…”

Vanir was still feeling rather full of himself; happy he got the brat to agree to breeding the town. The lad was very easy to manipulate after all. Revelling in his victory, Vanir laid back on a nearby roof, needing to make sure he was able to come help if the situation demanded it.

But as he was relaxing his weary mask... he smelled something.

"Hmm, what is that?" He asked no one, sniffing the air for the foreign contaminant, feeling like it was familiar, but couldn't quite place why. "Almost smells like... oh no."

He tried to close his nose, but it was too late. It had already started dripping.

"Loneliness!"

The demon's schnozzle began profusely leaking snot. The horrid green substance dribbled over his mouth while getting stuck on his suit’s collar on the way down. Vanir tried to run away, but it was staggered from his allergies making him sneeze as well.

“ACHOO! AAAACHOO!!!! GAAAHHHH!!! DERE’S SNOT UNDER MOI’S MASKK!!!” He yelled as he sneezed, the gooey mess spreading and sticking to his face. His gloves were soon covered with it too, and the one handkerchief he had with him was quickly rendered useless by how much snot was pouring down from his nose. He hobbled away, with only Darkness giggling at the grand noise he was making. At least she was able to score a small win on the demon after he'd been so manipulative.

The crowd of women had all awoken now, after a brief spell of feeling intense loneliness. All of them were looking around in a daze before hearing something.

"Ladies and gentlemen - but mostly ladies - of Breeding Day!"

Noise began starting deep into the Guild. Many of them remembering where they were and heading back inside, all murmuring about what was happening. Luna and Sena were also in there, confused as the rest, though Luna was much more frantic to get to the front of the crowd and see what was happening.

On the stage that had been constructed near the back of the hall were three women. Luna's stomach sank, having forgotten she'd booked the three and had to tell them that Kazuma was no longer appearing.

Lia was smiling out front, playing a few notes to draw even more attention on her keytar, "Sorry for the wait! But your star has returned!"

Confusion turned to cheers as Kazuma jumped out onto stage, shocking the women who thought he'd left but playing up the crowd for all he could.

The guild had an electrifying spark in the air. Money was to be earned, hopes were to be raised, babies were ripe for the making! All of them may have had different reasons for being there, but seeing the knight up on stage ready to go was enough to make the room explode in happiness. Darkness once more took on bouncer duty to hold back as many women as she could from rushing onto the stage and grabbing him where he stood.

Luna was the only one who got through, quickly jumping up and taking the microphone from Lia. The list of things she was going to say before everything changed now having to be said in quick succession, "Uhm, everyone?! Listen to me! Please make sure you have your tickets! Any roughhousing or stealing will cause you to be kicked from the venue! Everyone will have a go in order, as long as one of the Kazumas doesn't pick you to jump the line!"

That caused the man in question to raise an eyebrow, "Wait, 'one of the Kazumas'? Plurals?"

"Here," Luna said while handing him a single potion bottle that she'd kept inside her vast cleavage, then she reached down with a pen and wrote “1” on the back of his hand. "We got a new formula from Vanir. This one will keep track of which is the original AND last longer in bed. There's more I can get, but for now that one will do."

The colours... Kazuma recognized it from his time in the hot springs. A smirk on his face arose as he swirled the contents in front of his eyes.

"We don't have long before Kazuma needs to leave, but we'll be here to make sure this event is as great as we can make it!" announced the blonde before stepping away to hand Kazuma the microphone.

Looking out on the sea of people, time seemed to slow down. He saw their faces of happiness, greed, hope, and loss. He could see the girls he'd rescued from loneliness and strangers he'd never seen before. He saw large monsters standing tall and tiny humans shyly staying put. Friends, queens, old enemies, and waitresses galore. Amongst all the chaos and cheering, Kazuma had to speak from his heart.

“Now, before we officially begin, there’s something I feel needs to be said first..." He began, taking a large breath and holding anticipation before yelling out:

"You’re all really, really fucking WEIRD!”

The suddenness of his declaration stopped the adoring cheers momentarily.

“I know I shouldn’t say that, but this world is way more sex focused than I realised, dammit! I honestly can't believe you all used to JUDGE ME for liking panties when you all came here just to get my CUM! The hypocrisy and arrogance of you people! It’s palpable!"

Darkness' stomach was dropping slowly but surely, fearing he'd become a little too unhinged as he lost the crowd.

"Maybe you're all vultures after my money. Or maybe you're here for a better tomorrow. Hell, maybe some of you came because you genuinely like me! Wouldn't that be a fucking first?!” He yelled into the mic, making many women look around in confusion before he gave a quick and relenting exhale. “BUT…if the world truly demands it, if it just won't leave me alone until I jizz into every pussy in town...then I guess I’ll just have to be the hero it needs!”

He quaffed the potion.

After a brief second, thirteen Kazumas suddenly appeared around him. They began posing together, partly out of respect for Crimson Demon theatrics, partly to pose with the Axel Hearts, and partly because it reminded them of a certain anime they'd collectively watched.

With a single motion, all of them ripped their clothes off and let hard wangs free to their adoring public. The crowd was suddenly back on his side. The sight of his massive cock times twelve was a great reassurance that they'd all get their chance to have a go that day. And with one final cheer... Breeding Day officially began.

“COME ON! LET'S! GET! BREEDINGGGGG~!!!!” Screamed one of the Kazuma clones that had stayed on stage to ram his eager member into Lia's equally eager pussy. She started playing her keytar despite the sudden invader inside her cunt. The chaos of it all overtaking everyone's collective mood.

One day, many years from now, a painting would be made to commemorate the group of naked Kazumas all jumping offstage into a happy, screaming horde of women.

It would not be shown in public museums.
