Reborn in another world as a Hermaphrodite

"Alex, wake up. You need to go take a shower."

As Alex slowly opened his eyes, he was finally back in the castle's bedroom with the white ceiling.

Katherine was already awake, sitting next to him, trying to wake him up as she flipped his sides of the blanket.

"What's wrong? What shower?"

Alex yawned as he finally sat up from the bed, noticing Katherine's face seemingly blushing red.

"Y-Your pants..."

Looking down, he finally understood what she was trying to say as there was a massive wet spot on his crotch.

More importantly, he could feel his crotch and panties feeling extremely sticky despite the pad he had attached meant for his period.

It was clear that the period wasn't to blame, considering what he had dreamed of last night.

"I'll be right back!"

As Alex rushed towards the bathroom, Katherine finally got up from the bed as well.

Standing before the mirror, she could see a wet spot that was still visible as she thought back to what happened in her dream.

Without wasting any time, she quickly removed her clothes before pulling out new pairs from her pocket.

But feeling a little dirty down below, she decided to head towards the bathroom with a towel wrapped.

"Alex, can I come in?"

After waiting for a bit, Alex finally opened the door. But before he could say anything, Katherine walked straight inside.

As Katherine jumped into the bathtub full of water, Alex silently got into the bathtub with his hand on his crotch.

"We haven't taken a shower together for so long. The last time was almost a month ago, wasn't it?"

"Yeah..."

Seeing Alex sitting so far away in the bathtub looking away, Katherine suddenly got up to get the showerhead before sitting next to him.

"Come on, Alex, there's no need to be so shy. Mom had seen every part of you already——"

As Katherine forcefully dragged Alex's hand away, she didn't flinch a single bit, seeing that his cock was fully erect.

But there was a visible awkwardness in the air as she grabbed the soap to begin scrubbing his back.

With more and more of his body being soaped, the two remained silent until Katherine broke it.

"You want mom to help you?"

Alex wanted to nod to experience it again, but he quickly shook his head, afraid of the consequences it could lead to.

After she finished rinsing the front and the back, there was only one part left on his body.

"Thanks, Mom... I can do it from here."

This time, Katherine accepted her decision, opting to hand the soap over to him before getting herself one.

Just as Alex finished washing his crotch, Katherine had only finished soaping the front of her own body.

"Mom, let me help you."

Katherine didn't say anything but raised her arms to let him start scrubbing around her body.

With most of the body fully soaped, Alex grabbed the showerhead to begin rinsing her body.

Moving onto her legs, he avoided the middle as he couldn't help but notice the shape of her thighs.

Even though most people would say it was a little bit fat, it was the ideal thickness, in his opinion.

Especially when factoring in her towering heights compared to most women and even some men.

The fact that her chest didn't sag at all and her round bottom made it even more attractive inside his head.

"Why am I thinking about this? Stop it, Alex. This isn't a dream anymore. She's your mom, for God's sake."

Quickly shaking his head, Alex began rinsing the soap off her legs before turning the showerhead off.

"Thank you, Alex," Katherine murmured as she grabbed the showerhead to begin washing her private part.

"No problem..."

---

When the two both got out of the shower, the awkwardness had long disappeared.

Katherine was looking through Alex's closet, picking the right pairs of clothes for Alex to wear.

"Hmm... This cloth doesn't really look that good on you," Katherine commented as she pulled out three pairs of clothes.

"M-Mom, can you just pick something, please?"

Alex was standing right before the mirror, fully naked, shivering a little in the cold air.

"Just give me a few seconds. I need to find the best clothes for my handsome son."

Alex watched as Katherine put the three pairs back in before grabbing another out.

"This one looks good... Oh, sorry, I almost forgot. Here's your panties."

After what felt like forever, Alex was finally allowed to put on a pair of clothes.

However, he soon was forced to take off his pants before pulling his panties all the way down to his knee.

After attaching the fully washed and dried pad to the panties, Alex quickly pulled it back up before fixing his clothes.

With everything fully set, the two could finally step out of the room together.

"I'm never letting Mom pick my clothes again, " Alex said to himself, as he couldn't believe how long it had taken.

"I'm going to go wake Sophia and Mary up. You can go to the dining area first, okay?"

Alex nodded as she turned around to head toward his sister's room while he headed forward.

After arriving at the dining area, no one was there except a few maids standing by.

"Where's everyone?" Alex curiously asked.

"Lord Fredrick and Lady Ava had left the castle already." One of the maids answered.

"How about Luqing and Miss Meiya?"

"I don't know."

As Alex sat down and began eating the food on the table, Amelia suddenly rushed into the room at full speed.

"Alex, can I borrow you for a second? I need you to help me with an experiment."

"Huh?"

Just as Alex nodded once out of muscle memory head, Amelia quickly dragged Alex out of his seat before a portal appeared.

Within a blink of an eye, he was now in Amelia's room.

Right before him was running some sort of lab with various glass beakers that were fully sealed and boiling.

"Okay, so you know how I managed to help you cure your lack of mana, right?"

Alex nodded again. He still remembered the burning sensation that made him kiss Amelia uncontrollably.

"I had been trying to develop a way to enhance mana gain permanently rather than just temporarily.

Yours was my first edition, and now I have finally developed the second edition.

And since you're the only one I know who worked with the first potion, I want you to try my second one."

As Amelia turned off the fire and pulled one of the beakers from the heat stove, Alex was starting to have a bad feeling.

"What's inside this potion?" Alex nervously asked.

"Come on, you don't trust your aunt? Have I ever done something that would hurt you?"

"No, but——"

"You're hurting your aunt's feelings, Alex..."

As Amelia put down the beaker, looking to the ground in sadness, Alex started to feel a little guilty.

"Fine, I'll drink it. But are you sure this is safe?" Alex asked as he grabbed the beaker.

"I'm sure of it. Most of the ingredients have already been tested to be mana enrichment, and I only added a few extra things.

There is no way it can have some damaging effect. I already tested on a few animals, and they showed no side effects."

Hearing Amelia's reassurance, Alex opened the beaker cover only to find a strong, foul smell.

It was the polar opposite of the slightly sweet smell the original he had tried in the past.

"Why does it smell so bad?" Alex asked as he put it back down.

"It took me a year and all my money to find all the ingredients. If you don't want to drink it, I can drink it myself——"

Alex instantly chugged the whole thing down with zero hesitation after hearing how valuable it was.

Putting the beaker down, Alex looked down at his hands as he began to feel something a little different inside his body.

"Do you feel anything different?" Amelia asked as she quickly took out a clipboard and a pen.

"I... I feel hot?"

"Hot? Okay. It must be the Sodium aluminum iodide interacting with the mana."

As she began writing down her notes, Alex's body suddenly started to cool down.

"Wait, I feel cold now."

"Okay. Interesting. It looks like potassium nitrate is working as intended... Try to use your mana."

Alex tried to cast a spell, but it failed as he couldn't control his mana at all.

It was going all over the place, forcefully expanding all the mana connections as he started to feel a little dizzy.

"Go into your meditation state and try to control your mana. Quick!"

Alex quickly closed his eyes, going into a meditation state. But he was surprised to see his stars rapidly changing colors.

"Don't just watch, control it!" Amelia's voice appeared inside Alex's head.

Not wasting any more time, Alex finally tries to control his mana by exerting the star's attraction.

But it was much harder than he expected, as the mana refused to go back towards where each star was located.

They were all choosing to stay inside the tunnel, forcing it to hold all of the mana's weights.
