**Yo. The Library of Van Shi Tong**
Days passed in the familiar routines I had grown accustomed to. I helped my other selves with information, trained in contorting and stretching my body, visited the virtual reality room several times a week, and improved my control and understanding of the elements through bending. I also made sure to spend quality time with my daughter. It still feels strange to use the word "daughter"—I'm not entirely used to having a little girl who is a part of me by my side...
Her achievements stir even more emotions in me than my own. I don't know, maybe that's how it's supposed to be. By this time, we had watched all the cartoons from the late 20th and early 21st centuries, so we decided to go back another decade. I was delighted to revisit heartfelt animated films like *The Aristocats*, *Lady and the Tramp*, *Robin Hood*, and *The Fox and the Hound*. I didn't forget about old Soviet cartoons either—some of them were not only on par with Western ones but even surpassed them.
Another day was coming to an end, and I was in bed with Dria and Celine. Celine refused to sleep in her own crib, and Dria and I had grown accustomed to retreating to another room for privacy. Things had changed in other ways too... Due to concerns that intimate relations might lead to another child, we decided to focus on other forms of connection. But I'm plagued by doubts—it seems Dria can absorb my energy through her entire body, so other forms of intimacy are also questionable. At first, I was afraid to "finish" even on her skin, worried she might absorb it. But what will be, will be. After all, Celine has already shown us she's not an ordinary child who needs constant supervision.
"So, do you like Gaia?" Dria asked me through our spiritual connection. How did our conversation even turn to this topic?
"Mmm, yeah, she's nice," I replied vaguely, waiting to understand why she asked.
"You like her too!" Dria said cheerfully.
"Uh-huh?" I broke the awkward silence. I could feel Dria hesitating, wanting to say something but holding back.
"Gaia wants a child!" she blurted out, sighing softly and patting her ample chest.
Now it was my turn to fall silent. I knew about Gaia's secret desire for a child but tried not to think about it. And now here we are...
"What do you think about it?" I asked, though jealousy doesn't seem to be in Dria's vocabulary.
"I'd be happy for her," she said, her sparkling eyes meeting mine. "She's wanted this for a long time but couldn't make it happen. And Celine would have someone to play with. Gaia was too shy to tell you herself, so she asked me to."
"Does she even have... you know, the necessary parts?" I asked, thinking Dria was unique in that regard. After all, none of the books mentioned spirits and humans conceiving children. Lady Tienhai doesn't count—even as a spirit, she just looks like a giant human woman.
"She has everything," Dria assured me, nodding. "And... she's waiting for you in our room," she added casually. "Don't think I'm pushing you—I still love you so much. I just want you to know."
Honestly, I expected something like this from you... I asked Dria for time to think, then considered the situation from every angle. Let's be honest, I like Gaia. Over time, I've come to understand her personality, which I find appealing. Her nature plays a big role—as Dria proved, spirits don't share many human concepts. Take jealousy or monogamy, for example—if they exist for Dria, they're at the very bottom of her list.
Seeing her feelings, I was willing to meet her halfway, but part of me resisted her exotic body. That hesitation vanished after visiting the desert in the Spirit Realm, inhabited by cat spirits. Why limit myself to the principles of my past world when I'm in a completely different reality?
But now, my instincts are subtly bothered by her motives. She's not interested in me—she wants the child I can give her... But I'm not letting go, especially if my own blood—or energy—is involved.
If I dig into my past, many of my relationships didn't start as beautifully as this. In my early years, my overflowing life energy and hormonal surge created a strong desire to explore the bodies of beautiful women. It was all mixed with my fantasies about cartoon characters. I was thinking with the wrong head. Deeper feelings developed as our relationships grew.
I'm confident my cute teenage face back then couldn't have inspired true love. Kaya and Shizuka found stability in me for themselves and their children. They knew their loved ones would be safe with me. I don't blame them—I wanted their bodies too. Only over time did we build something as complex as love.
Dria's case is different—something like imprinting happened between us, though I'm still not sure. But I have no doubt about her feelings. It's hard to hide anything from spirits—you always sense how they feel about you. Something similar happened with Jun. For her, I became a destined man she wouldn't let go of. Her obsession has only recently started to fade. I hope she'll stay with me not because of my strength but for who I am.
Ursa is another example—I was simply her only option. She tried to figure out if I was connected to Ozai or another high-ranking official, fearing exposure and expulsion from the Palace, away from her children. Once she realized I wasn't acting on anyone's orders, she jumped into my arms without hesitation. Circumstances brought us together, but we've already sparked true love—we just need to keep fueling it.
But don't doubt this: I could have won their hearts under any circumstances!
"Alright, I've thought it over. Gaia will be a great mother to our children," I told Dria. Take what's given, right? Good advice...
"I knew you wouldn't refuse!" Dria winked, kissing me goodbye. "Be gentle with her."
I left our room with mixed feelings, her words echoing in my mind: "I knew you wouldn't refuse!" It's like my women sometimes know me better than I know myself.
Before I knew it, I was standing in front of the right door. After taking a few deep breaths, I opened it. Gaia stood there, already naked, her hopeful eyes fixed on me. Her nervous hoof-tapping showed how anxious she was. The soft light illuminated her impressive figure, which she awkwardly tried to hide with her hands.
"So... you agree?" she asked, her voice trembling with excitement.
"Yes," I nodded, quickly adding, "But I want to be part of the child's life too. I hope you'll stay close to me." Not the best start for what's about to happen, but I needed to set things straight.
"Of course, that's what I wanted," she said, her emotions overflowing as she nodded repeatedly.
"Can you change the lower half of your body to... human legs?" I asked, feeling awkward.
"I can," she replied, hesitating slightly. "But... some things might be lost in the process. I've rarely changed my appearance, so I don't have much experience," she admitted shyly.
"I should've expected that..." Looking into Gaia's hopeful eyes, I couldn't bring myself to refuse. Who knows if she'll ever be able to recreate those intimate parts in the future.
My long silence seemed to signal her to act. Gaia gently took my hand and led me to the only bed. She sat me on the edge, then slowly lowered herself to my lap, folding her legs to the side.
"Can you take off your pants?" she asked softly, her tone making my energy rise. She was so adorable in that moment, especially with her voice.
I silently unfastened my belt, lowering my pants and underwear, freeing my energy. As it sprang out, it lightly struck her chest.
"Tell me if you don't like it," she whispered before taking it in her hands and bringing her face close. Her warm breath made the tip twitch eagerly.
"You're doing great," I said gently, seeing her effort. Compared to my other partners, she wasn't as skilled, but I've always enjoyed watching my energy dominate a mouth.
My hands soon explored her exposed figure. Pinching her tight nipple, I heard her cute squeak. She didn't expect that from herself... My fingers sank into her ample size. She's definitely the woman with the most impressive figure I've ever seen! And it suits her body perfectly—aesthetically pleasing. Soon, I felt the buildup to release.
"Dria said I need to swallow everything," she mumbled before taking my release into her mouth. A few droplets fell onto my energy source, which she also attended to.
"My turn now," I said, stopping her playful tongue from starting another round.
Taking her hands, I helped her stand. I moved behind her, standing before her unique form. Grabbing her energetic tail, I finally saw her treasures.
"Almost like a human's..." What I secretly feared didn't happen. Gaia had a perfectly beautiful opening, maybe just a bit larger than usual.
"So beautiful," I couldn't help but say aloud, gently running my fingers near her slit. Gaia quickly covered her face with her hands, and I physically felt waves of her embarrassment.
"I'm going in," I said, half-questioningly. Hearing no clear response, I began to enter her slowly.
"Ah," she squeaked again, this time with a soft, tender moan.
"I've only gone in an inch!" Her sensitivity and tightness were impressive. As I slowly pushed forward, I heard the music of her squeaks and moans. Just as I reached the hilt, her body went limp... At least her front legs gave way and folded.
"Sorry," she whispered weakly. "It felt too good..."
"It's okay," I soothed, stroking her smooth, short fur. "Better lie down however you're comfortable. It'll only get more intense," I admitted, my tone slightly ominous.
She resumed the position she had while attending to my energy. As I built up momentum, Gaia definitely had a couple of mini-releases. Maybe it's the result of centuries of abstinence? The world clearly didn't give her that opening for nothing...
I have a theory that spirits and humans were meant to create a new race, combining only their best traits. Dria, Lady Tienhai, Gaia, and even the River Lady could fit here—she's clearly too "human," and I've seen obvious traits on several cat spirits. No, I wasn't staring—I just have good eyesight!
I must have gotten lost in thought because I didn't notice Gaia could only gasp hoarsely, her opening flowing with my essence mixed with her juices.
"Give me a moment to recover, and we'll continue," she said, pushing herself to speak.
"I'm not going anywhere. We can continue tomorrow, or even the day after," I said, moving to face her—or rather, her form...
"Mmm," she shook her head. "The more we do this, the faster we'll have a child," she said, quickly attending to my energy, which dripped with viscous fluid.
"Then let's try the other opening? Maybe it's less sensitive..."
She agreed, and I positioned myself at her back entrance. Already heated, I entered her fully without hesitation. Gaia's body responded with a spasm, showering my energy source with her juices.
"She's out," I observed. Now I can proudly say I've "conquered" a higher spirit using only my energy. "At least we know her anal passage is even more sensitive..."
I picked her up and laid her on the bed. I almost headed to my room with Dria out of habit but quickly changed my mind. It wouldn't be right to leave after our first night together, and I didn't want her thinking any silly thoughts. Better to sleep beside her.
Making my decision, I climbed onto the bed, getting comfortable. I couldn't resist burying my face in her soft pillows. Instantly, I felt better, sleep already creeping in... That's the power of a spirit's embrace!

**Outside the door to the room where Yo and Gaia lay:**
"This insufferable human-spirit hybrid will turn this sanctuary of knowledge into a den of vice!" Van Shi Tong's assistant grumbled angrily. "Hmm, but maybe another Celine will appear," she thought, pausing. After all, Celine is a good thing, Yo's actions are questionable, but in the end, it's still good...
