A flicker of panic crossed Conis's face as the realization dawned on her. Fire, she thought, her wings feeling perfectly fine. She glanced behind her, her eyes widened in alarm as she noticed the tips of her wings ablaze. The sight sent a surge of fear through her.

In her distress, Conis blurted out, “My wings!” Her instinctive reaction was to extinguish the flames, but her futile attempts only heightened her anxiety.

Ben enveloped her in a reassuring hug. “It's not that kind of fire. Your devil fruit is producing them. They will not harm you,” he explained, his voice calm and reassuring.

As Ben held her, Conis took a moment to absorb his words. A mixture of relief and curiosity settled within her. “Not harmful?” she questioned, still processing the newfound revelation.

Ben nodded, offering a reassuring smile. “Exactly. The fire produced by your devil fruit is under your control. It won't cause any harm to you.”

Conis paused, taking a deep breath to quell the residual panic. Gradually, she began to sense the truth in Ben's words. The flames, once perceived as a threat, now felt familiar and manageable. She extended her awareness to the fire, realizing that it wasn't a force to be feared; instead, it was an extension of her abilities. She focused on the fire in her wings and they grew bigger. It wrapped around them. It formed a transparent fire cocoon. Conis eyes were locked on Ben`s. The fire did not hurt them.

Marianne's eyes widened in awe as she took in the spectacle before her. “Wow,” she breathed, captivated by the mesmerizing display.

Honey, standing alongside Marianne, couldn't help but be moved by the beauty unfolding. “Beautiful,” she added, her voice filled with genuine admiration.

Conis decided to unleash the controlled flames with a graceful gesture. The vibrant display of fire danced and twirled in the air, casting and glow across the surroundings. The flames seemed to move in harmony, responding to Conis's unspoken command. Pagaya, McKinley and the God Guards' mouths dropped. They saw the flames moving, controlled by Conis. She looked majestic, like a God.

“That was amazing,” Conis replied, her voice tinged with delight. A wide smile adorned her face.

Ben was surprised. She had control of her ability. She can manipulate flames like Ace's devil fruit. However she can also make the flames harmless. Ben did not feel any heat on the fire.

“You are,” Ben said.

“He is trying to win her over,” Kaya remarked.

“He already has,” Mikita added.

Releasing his embrace, Ben stepped back, allowing Conis to reunite with her father. As she turned towards Pagaya, her cheeks flushed with a rosy tint. The memory of hugging another man in front of her dad lingered, and she couldn't help but feel a mix of embarrassment and warmth.

“Father,” Conis spoke, her voice carrying both joy and a touch of trepidation.

However, Pagaya, with a serene smile, dispelled any concerns. “There is no need to say anything. You have grown, my child. You have spread your wings. I wish you the best of luck, Conis,” he said, his words resonating with paternal pride and a heartfelt blessing.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Conis couldn't hold back the tears that welled up in her eyes. She ran to her father, embracing him tightly. “Father,” she whispered, her voice choked with a mix of love and gratitude.

Pagaya returned the hug, offering comfort and reassurance. “There, there, my dear. A daughter will always leave her father. A father's biggest worry is his daughter finding the wrong man. He is good, and you will have support,” he reassured her, his words echoing the bittersweet nature of such farewells.

His gaze then shifted to Ben, who stood with a solemn determination. Though his eyes remained closed, an undeniable chill ran down Ben's spine as Pagaya addressed him directly. “I will protect her with my life,” Ben stated.

Pagaya nodded. “We will take care of her,” Alvida reassured. The other girls nodded.

“Okay, we need to go,” Ben said. He knew Enel had seen everything and attacked him. He has pride and the games to complete. He will focus on them. There was also the Stawhats, they probably have his attention as well.

Conis let her father go. “I guess it's time for me to go for now,” Conis said.

“We will be back soon,” Ben said. They all nodded.

“Lets head back to the Miss Love Duck,” Ben ordered. Kaya transformed into her full beast form. Her tail was long and slender, with a delicate tip that curled slightly at the end. Her skin was a pale alabaster, and her hands had sharp claws. She had a pair of large, feathered wings that were folded behind her back. A single horn protruded from her forehead, and her eyes were yellow. Her teeth looked normal however they were sharp.

Pagaya, McKinley and the God Guards' mouths dropped again. They saw an angel. Her wings were large. Ben and Kaya flew all the girls back to the Miss Love Duck. They were all on the deck. HQ came out of the Bridge.

“We welcome you to the harem,” HQ greeted, a cheerful tone resonating in the air.

Conis, perplexed by the unexpected term, turned to Ben for clarification. “Harem?” she questioned, her eyes seeking an explanation.

“Pervert,” Kaya remarked.

“Does the sleep with Ben naked rule apply?” Marianne asked.

Conis looked surprised, sleeping naked with Ben. She was not sure about that yet. She thought no man had seen her naked before.

“That was a joke,” Ben replied. The girls chuckled.

“Time for the girls' talk,” she declared, directing her attention to Kaya. “Could you perform a check-up on my love?” Alvida requested, her grin widening with a hint of playful mischief.

“Yes, I will,” Kaya stated. A twinkle of amusement in her eyes.

“Ben head to 2L3 now,” Kaya ordered. She had a determined look.

“Yes Nurse,” Ben responded. He smiled widely.

“Alvida, could you have the talk in the Bridge please, we need to start making our way to the Sacrificial Altar and Conis knows the way,” Ben said.

“Sure, my love,” Alvida responded. She took the girls up to the Bridge. Ben headed to the Medical room. He walked up and sat on the bed. He felt he was fine however a check-up would not hurt. He could see Nuse Kaya again and make progress on the quests. He thought win win in his books.

He took his shirt, shoes and pants off. He started to inspect his body. The bruises and marks from his body were disappearing. The few he had were gone. Ben thought this was interesting. He knew he had rapid healing however this was amazing and very useful.

At that moment, he could hear the clicks of a heeled shoe. The door opened. “You pervert but I can do a full body check,” Kaya said. Ben turned around.

He saw Kaya wearing a short white stretchy fitted dress that just went to the top of her thighs. The dress had a full length red zip at the front with a broad white collar that exposed ample amount of her cleavage. She wore white heels and white stockings that went to her knee cap. There was a nurse cap on her head.

“My sexy Nurse,” Ben remarked.

“We have already established that you like this outfit,” Kaya said. There was a hint of authority in her voice.
“You look like my gorgeous angel, sent to heal me, take away my sickness, and cure me,” he expressed, his words laced with a profound sense of gratitude and admiration. The room seemed to hush, and a warm silence enveloped them as Ben's heartfelt words lingered in the air.

“You have your way of words, but if I need to make you take a large injection I will,” Kaya stated.

Ben thought she was serious. ”One more thing,” Kaya whispered, her voice carrying a seductive undertone that demanded attention. As she leaned in, her gaze locked with a playful glint, she continued, “This outfit is only for your eyes.”

“I know and I know it was tough for you to wear it. I love you for wearing it for me. You are sexy and cute. The perfect angel,” Ben expressed.

Kaya smiled. She knew those words were true. She could feel the emotion behind them. Her heartbeat started to go faster. Her cheeks flushed. Her eyes were in admiration. She shakes her head. “I love you too Ben, you are my everything. You gave me this home, this family, people who I can trust and tell everything to,” Kaya responded. She paused and smiled. She let those words linger in the room. “However, you are getting a check-up now,” Kaya stated.

Ben smiled. “Sure,” he responded.

Kaya walked towards Ben. The dress was short so that her white panties could be seen with each step she took. She looked sexy. His penis was getting hard.

“Someone for sure is working,” Kaya remarked at the large bulge in his underwear,

“Last time a mean girl hit him but we checked and he was working fine,” Kaya added. She smiled.

“Yes Nurse but we need a check-up examination just to make sure,” Ben suggested.

“We will have to,” Kaya agreed. She knew the game he was playing but she did not mind. She loved him, she would always try to make him happy.

Kaya put her hand on Ben`s chest and traced her finger along his chest.She thought it was hard yet soft at the same time. It was sturdy for sure. She smiled. It felt good playing on his chest. “Sit down,” Kaya said.

“Yes Nurse,” Ben replied as he sat on the bed. She walked back to the front and picked up a stethoscope. She walked back. Ben thought she looked sexy with it. She had a perfect balance of sexy and seriousness. She was exotic.

With a gentle touch, she secured the stethoscope around her neck and positioned its cold metal diaphragm on Ben's chest. Leaning in, she listened intently to the rhythmic cadence of his heartbeat. The ambient sounds of the room faded as she focused on the steady lub-dub, lub-dub resonating through the earpieces.

The room seemed to still for a moment as the rhythmic symphony of Ben's heart unfolded. Each beat echoed a tale of vitality, that it was strong and stable. She smiled.

Ben saw her large cleavage in front of him. He could see the top of her breast. Ben thought she had large breasts. She was blessed here.

Kaya took the stethoscope off. “You are okay here,” Kaya said. She looked at Ben. “Please get up,” Kaya requested.

“As you wish, Nurse,” Ben replied as he got up.

“Since you got hit by lightning, I must do a full body,” Kaya stated.
