Graduation

When I finally finished up inside the office, I was equal parts embarrassed, relieved, and ecstatic, for all sorts of reasons too.

Embarrassed that Lady Von Goldiue had to ask if I was actually part Demi Human with how high my libido was, as well as how long we had spent partaking in Regina for our lusts, and also because I was being watched the entire time I bred a Catkin...

Relieved obviously because this was finally over and I was a Rancher, as well as the obvious fact that my balls now felt many times lighter, giving me that wonderful bliss that came after having raunchy, unprotected sex with a Demi Human; there was no doubt in my mind that the Catkin was with child already, and something about that just stroked my libido even more, to the point that I had came inside her four times before having to stop.

Finally, I was happy because I was now 25 gold richer, had forged a decent connection with an important Government officially, and of course...

I was now a Rancher!

My dreams had come true, and here I was, staring down at the silver medallion around my neck with a stupid grin on my face as I hummed quietly and did everything I could to refrain from jumping up and down like a little girl.

"Congratulations Hildegarde! I knew you had it in you!"

The busty teacher who had been teaching me for months now grinned at me, before her nose wrinkled for a brief moment as she stepped closer, undoubtedly catching the heavy stench of sex that wafted off of me... and I could see the conflicting emotions in her eyes at that stench.

There was no way the Proctor would be the one asking me to have sex with her, since she was so important and I was just a nobody at the moment, so I must have been asked to breed the Demi Human with her, and...

Well, some people thought that that was fine, but most thought that breeding a Demi Human yourself was something only delinquents and degenerates do; after all, there is no chance you get to have a real baby with them, so what point is there to fucking a Demi Human besides for lust?

And why haven't you just found a Human woman to make your wife so you can start a family together, to continue your bloodline and procreate properly?

That was what she was thinking, and I coughed uncomfortably as I said "It's all thanks to you, Miss Fran! You were an excellent teacher for me, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without you!"

That complicated light left her eyes, replaced instead with warmth and joy as she nodded, loving the praise and loving the fact that there was yet another Rancher for the Empire.

"It's my joy to have been able to teach such fine students yet again! All of you were such excellent students! I look forwards to hearing about you once more~! Perhaps by that point, I'll be able to brag that I helped teach some of the finest Ranchers to ever live, hm~? Oh, wouldn't that be something..."

Her desire for notoriety was well known amongst the students, but it was harmless since she prioritized her job first and foremost, with her desire to become famous or know someone famous personally taking a back seat, but still... considering the rumors I had heard about her and the Noble girl who had applied to be a Rancher as well, I wasn't surprised...

Speaking of, my only close acquaintance this entire time walked out of room 4, the same silver medallion I wore hanging around her neck and resting atop her own curvaceous chest, which was clad in a fine silk that seemed far too opulent for a job about getting your hands dirty...

"Ah, Hildegarde! I see you passed as well! Good, good. As expected of my rival!"

Smiling wryly at the pompous tone that she took, I scratched my nose and nodded, saying "I see you passed too, Evelyn. Can't say I am too surprised, just... an odd sight as always, y'know?"

I looked the Noble up and down one more time, taking in her red silk dress and definitely not checking her out slyly, admiring her curves and arrogant posture that gave her a charm that most found irritating, but I found rather adorable, especially the haughty expression she wore as she looked down at me...

"Odd you say? This is the finest silk you can procure in the Frontier, and I work tirelessly to maintain its brilliance! My magic aides me just as my Demi Humans do! There is nothing odd about me having good taste and style! Anyways, I learned that my Ranch is somewhere near the base of Mount Fornagi and near the Vorgina Outpost. What about you?"

"The side of Mount Fornagi. So we're uh..."

The Noble grinned at me as she took a step forwards, either not catching the sweet scent of Regina on me or simply being accustomed to the scents of sex herself to not care as she said "So we're neighbors as Ranchers then too, huh? Good to know, Hildegarde~! What do you say? Wanna work together every once in a while~?"

The switch to a seductive tone made me shiver, but I nodded and got a giggle in response as Evelyn added "Good to hear~! Well, we should get going soon, no? Want to reach my new home before nightfall... and get out of this stuffy place. Ah, Miss Fran... could we exchange our goodbyes privately, perhaps~?"

Then the switch of her attention made me smile wryly again as I watched Evelyn lead Miss Fran away, the Noble not giving a damn about decorum at all as she openly groped the curvy mature Professor's butt and pulled her into her own office to have sex once again.

It wasn't what I was expecting for my graduation ceremony, but what truly mattered was the fact that I was now a Rancher...

My dreams... they were truly beginning to flourish now, and that made me happier than anything else ever had in my entire life.

I was one step closer to being able to create my own blissful haven with my own family of Demi Humans, and I was one step closer to piling together the funds to begin my search for where my Mom actually went, and what happened to her out on the Frontier...
