Bertha was even able to incorporate her 'Hammer-Bomb' with her 'Lovey Pink Gigahammer Multi-Ouchie Maker', creating a very deadly combination that <span class="mu-i">almost</span> defeated the armored clank she was fighting, rendering it nearly immobile—an impressive feat by it's own, yet your wife with the Warrior class assured you that she needed just one more week to completely win against one, saying she'll gain a new ability in the process.
Ruby actually worked hard, even making small trips to the dungeon while accompanied by some clankers. Whenever you caught sight of your Mastermind she seemed to have endless schemes in her eyes. You helped her gain a clearer focus when you could, playing along as 'the Baron'.
And speaking of plans, Herta always seemed to have the manic look of Lunacy Savantae on her face. She dedicated her time making designs to present to you, each with varying ambition and detail. The goddess went as far as to create pacifiers, baby cribs, and strollers for at least a dozen children as well as miniature models for the rooms/new wing.
Mel, thanks to the fact that you escorted her to the airship, was able to create better traps around the estate and even in the port as well. After demonstrating how well they worked by (accidentally) getting caught in one, and getting saved by you again, she used the incident to fix them in various ways and ensured that none of the residents of your estate would (likely) get caught in them.
Ayane was doing extremely well in her routine, getting healthier and more apt with magic by the day. That spellbook helped her in brushing up on the basics.
As for Cattleya...
With your high perception you could see her wipe her brow, little droplets of sweat go down your catgirl's bronze skin and hide between her ample bosom. She notices you staring at her, raising an eyebrow.
"What?" You said. "Can't a man appreciate the beauty of his sex slave?"
"You could do more than watch, you know." Said she with a smirk.
"If you ask nicely I'll consider it." You didn't miss a beat.
You'd been keeping a <span class="mu-i">very</span> close eye on your Cat. She'd been working far more than usual, acting restless and using her free time to hang around you even as you worked on making more Lucky Artifacts for your fluffy tailed in-laws. Your kitsune wife appreciated the sentiment, considering her brooch would be starting to lose power soon.
Cattleya would also often come by and supply you with freshly made ingots, something which you thanked her for. You couldn't help but notice your muscle-headed catgirl steal glances at you when she thought you weren't looking and would blush far more easily when you were in the room.
