Chapter 185 - Monke And A New Dungeon
Leaving the portal area, Drake, Catalina, Domino, two feline guards, and I walked under the giant arch that connected this place to the outside.
Walking closer to the catwoman, I tilted my head in her direction, and she looked at me with a smile.
"By the way, I didn\'t get to ask you this because we were in a hurry last time." She hummed and I continued, Drake listening in as we did so. "Is your Dungeon more focused on trade? That\'s what I\'ve gotten through my observations, at least."
"Hmm… Yes, you are correct on that front." She motioned her hand behind us, our eyes following and meeting the various monsters, humans, and demi-humans unloading shipments, into various vehicles used to transport said cargo. "It is why we also had trouble defending against the raid a few days ago. Some of my men have been focused on escorting the traders out of my Dungeon, causing them to be late in arriving against the force of humans the both of you faced. That, and my felines aren\'t really that cut out to be defenders against a well-trained group of armed soldiers numbering a few hundred."
We walked past a few more busybodies here and there as we continued forward, some of them giving us smiles and eyes of wonder, particularly, the little children playing about the streets.
I waved back at them, causing them to giggle and wave back. Besides me, Catalina and Drake chuckled at my action.
"You are always good with kids." Drake mused as he looked at Domino still perched atop my shoulder like an ornament, her arms playing with the fur on top of my head.
"Indeed, and that shows in how you manage your daughter." I rolled my eyes at their claims, but didn\'t disagree with them. I may think I am not that good with kids, but if other people tell me I am, who am I to tell them off?
"Anyway, we shouldn\'t be that far from our destination." Catalina then surprised me by jumping at my side and hugging my arm in between her breasts. "Shall we?"
I smiled and Domino, who shook a little because of the sudden weight added at my side, shifted to my opposite shoulder so she could get closer to her Mama.
Meanwhile, Drake was looking at me again with jealousy, his eyes squinting and his lips forming a frown, gritted teeth showing.
Rolling my eyes at his display, the four of us, six if you counted the two feline guards still following us, continued on in silence, content enough just to feel each other\'s presence and being at awe with the spectacle of the bustling city without it looking like a ghost town.

"Here we are." Catalina let go of my arm as she gestured for the two feline guards following us to open the double doors in front of us. "This is the place where we hold most of our meetings, and the leaders of various factions inside my Dungeon are inside waiting for us."
"I see…" I cupped my chin with my free hand as Catalina guided me inside by grabbing my other arm once again, with Domino trying to bridge the gap between her and me with her actions, and Drake still being the jealous OP protagonist of his own novel.
Heading inside, we were greeted by another guard, and instead of a feline, she was a cat demi-human.
"Master?" She looked at Catalina with sparkling eyes, and Catalina cringed at the sight of her subordinate.
"Melanie, what are you doing here?" The catgirl in question looked at Catalina with a lovesick smile, before she spotted me with her master clinging to my arm like a high school girl would and a little girl sitting on top of my shoulder.
"M-master! How could you!" She then cried out, large, comical tears seeping from her eyes and into the ground as she wept. "How could you replace me, you\'re one true love, with a brute like that! You even had a child!"
And just like that, all of us present stared at the catgirl like she was a total nutjob, except Catalina, who was pinching the bridge of her nose with irritation.
"Melanie… How many times have I told you this…" Catalina glared at the catgirl, who was still weeping on the floor like a lover had just dumped her after going behind her back. "We were never a thing. That was just a one-time thing."
"Still! You can\'t ignore my feelings! Our sweaty skin glancing off of each other… The hugs and kisses we exchanged... Our sacred gardens rubbing to assert dominance… Ehehehehe~" As the catgirl continued to list down more and more scandalous sentences, Catalina\'s face began to glow red, and the catgirl in question went off the deep end, chuckling at herself as a blush adorned her cheeks, her eyes dazed as she looked at nothing in particular.
"… Is this normal?" I questioned the catwoman with a raised eyebrow, and she just sighed, her face still red from the embarrassment of having her previous nightly escapades revealed to me, Domino (who didn\'t care), and Drake, who was busy sporting a nosebleed.
"Right, I forgot you were into yuri…" I facepalmed as I glanced at Drake\'s current state. "Anyway, we should get going. We don\'t want to keep the others waiting."
From my words, Catalina perked up, and she tightened her hold on my arm. I also grabbed on Drake\'s right shoulder with my free arm, dragging him along as he daydreamed about some girl-on-girl action.
Even though I didn\'t want it to happen, the catgirl noticed us leaving. She hastily stood up and ran after our group.
"W-Wait, Master! I still haven\'t told you about our time trying out those wonderful… wonderful… t-toys… Ehehehe~" Catalina stiffened once again, and I couldn\'t help but giggle at her shocked and embarrassed state. Drake was starting go down deeper into the yuri rabbit hole of daydreams as he heard the words come out of the catgirl.
"So… Toys, eh?"
"Shut up…" I smiled impishly as I covered Domino\'s eyes and grabbed a dildo from my inventory. Showing the item I fished out from my inventory to the blushing catwoman, her jaw dropped and I leaned in closer to her ear.
"I might just use it on you the next time we have our fun, wouldn\'t you agree." I grinned as I saw a lustful smile appear on Catalina\'s face. I quickly deposited the sex toy inside my inventory, laughing aloud, and removed my free hand from Domino\'s eyes.
She blinked once, then twice, before settling her gaze on her blushing Mama who was sporting a lewd smile, and then back at her uncle Drake, who was kneeling on the ground with another lewd smile.
I chuckled at her actions and rubbed her head. Grabbing Drake once more from the ground, I tugged on Catalina\'s arm, and she snapped out of her lewd daydreams.
"… Later… We\'ll do it later…" She leaned into my ear and whispered the words which made me get my little Jionni to go stiff a bit. Behind me, I saw the catgirl still sporting a lewd smile plastered on her face as she continued to fantasize about the night she and Catalina did the deed.
Sighing, Catalina tugged on my arm and we continued onwards, my arm dragging the daydreaming Drake along as he continued to fantasize as well.
Also, the catgirl noticed us moving and moved to catch up as well.

"So… These are the two then?"
"Indeed, they are."
We were now seated around a round table that was eerily similar to the round table I had in the meeting area of both the Monster Town and Human Town. There were 8 seats in total, all of them being occupied, with me, Catalina, and Drake each occupying one.
That left five other seats, each of them having a figure sat upon as they stared at me with open curiosity, wariness, wonder, and hope.
The one who spoke first was a female fox demi-human with three bushy tails that waved around the air. She looked at me with a fanged smile, her emerald eyes with orange slits for pupils glowing underneath the light coming from the chandelier hanging above us.
"We are eternally thankful for your coming to provide us with your aid." She bowed, showing off her massive cleavage with the poor excuse of a dress (in the formal sense) she was currently wearing. "As such, the five of us, leaders of our own factions living within the Dungeon of our Master, Mistress Catalina, have pooled our resources to offer our saviors a gift."
She raised her head and clapped once, the doors leading outside bursting open as two guards, another female fox demi-human, although only sporting a single tail instead of their leader\'s three, and a male human who looked like he hit the gym at least 10-days a week.
They were bringing what seemed to be a giant box that was wrapped in chains with small holes punctured on the sides.
The moment I saw that box, I had an inkling of what was inside.
Laying the box on the ground gently, the two guards stood at its side as they unwrapped the chains that locked it securely. Once it was no longer chained, they opened the lid, which caused the box\'s walls to fall to the ground, revealing the contents to every person inside the room.
"Nya~?" A catgirl, along with about four other humans and demi-humans stood in a pose, dressed seductively as they stared at me with awed eyes.
"… Pardon my French… But what the fuck?"
