Hello everyone! And fucking hell 13k words without including the AN…anyways, here's to demonoid217 and Old Man of the Mountain for beta reading for me, and here's to dank, life is a lie for helping me out even a tiny bit.

Now before starting the chapter, I am dumb and forgot to type in the name of the music that Abhainn played in the past few chapters…its "Spirit of the Wild" by BrunuhVille and "Druidic Dreams" by Adrian von Ziegler in order.

Anyways, onwards with the chapter!

I don't own anything except some stuff

Chapter 7 – Three Elves, one Gamer

I gulped softly as I drank in Chloe's form. While not as curvy as Anna, Grace, and Esdeath, she definitely makes it up for it with her ass. In all honesty, I expected her to be slightly hostile with me. But seeing as her cheeks are slightly flushed and her eyes are full of affection instead of malice, then I can have my fears come to rest.

And come to think of it, she started looking at me like that when I mentioned her name. I said it out loud in surprise given how she suddenly appeared in front of me without me realizing it.

Wonder how thi-

"You remember me…"

I blinked. 'Ah, that explains it.' I nodded as I gently patted the wolf pup. "Of course, how can I forget you? You and I may have only been children, but I still remember the day I freed you from your shackles." I closed my eyes as I hummed, playing a tune. With how she acts around me, I can say that her affection for me is decently high.

Opening an eye, I used [Observe] on her.

Chloe

Level: 25

Title: [Dark Queen's Aide]

Thoughts about you: Pleased with you especially since you "remember" her

[Chloe – 50/100 Affection]

Yep, decently high.

"How about you sit beside me? You look like you're about to fall over. Come on and relax." Chloe blinked several times as her cheeks reddened a fair bit before jumping on the rock and sitting on an open spot beside me.

Keeping myself from eyeing her toned legs, I picked up my flute and closed my eyes. 'What's that one music called? Ah, fuck it…' I thought to myself as I brought the mouthpiece close to my lips. Immediately, everything around me seemed to come to a halt as I blew into the mouthpiece in a soft but quick manner, my fingers dancing along with the keyholes.

The melody is soft, quick, and almost energizing in a way as it reverberates around the forest. The animals around us relaxed and listened. I felt Chloe lean into my shoulder, her hair gently tickling my skin. 'I'm probably the only human she will ever trust.' Opening one eye, I saw her relax her body as she closed her eyes.

The winds gently blew around us, I felt Chloe shiver slightly as she leaned closer to me. I do not mind; I mean who won't? Chloe is a young and beautiful Dark Elf, technically a half Dark Elf but who cares? The collector in me just screams that she is unique.

I stopped after a few moments, the music still playing in my mind. Opening my eyes, I looked at Chloe smiling comfortably. Pausing the mental music player in my mind, I smirked as I activated [Sensual Touch] and slowly snaked an arm around her.

She flinched slightly, surprised at the sudden action but not pulling herself away from me. Good. My hand held onto her shoulder, gently rubbing into it, before pulling her towards me. I heard her gasp as I put my flute down and leaned my head on hers. I don't hear it, but I can feel her heartbeat beating faster.

"I'm glad you're okay…that night, I didn't know what happened to you. I'm happy that I was able to save you that night." I took a deep breath as if to calm myself down. This seemed to have an effect as Chloe held on to me tightly, her eyes closed. Taking a bold move, I gently caressed her cheek with my other hand, the result was obvious. Her cheeks reddened as I gave her my affection.

[+5 Affection with Chloe!]

[Chloe – 55/100 Affection]

It's funny. Here's a Dark Elf that can kick my ass several times over and she looks so small and submissive. I felt my manhood twitch in anticipation. But not now. Sometimes it's best to marinate it first before feasting.

Looking down at her, I barely held myself back from grabbing here then and there. Her cheeks are flushed, her red eyes are glistening, and even her ears are drooping slightly. I'm tempted to kiss her, but not yet. I instead went and gently wrapped her with both my arms, holding on to her tightly with a hug.

I heard her breath hitch as she shakily wrapped her arms around me. Her breasts squeezed against my chest, allowing me to enjoy the sensation of her soft chest. While not super big, it's still big enough for me to feel the softness. "I missed you. I wanted to thank you. To express my gratitude for saving me from that place…from him." I closed my eyes as I looked down at her backside.

'Damn.' I held back a grin as I leered at her open back leading down to her ass. With just a single look, I can tell she is very flexible with how supple her body is. Her ass looks so bouncy, looking down at her juicy thighs and her toned legs, I gulped to myself.

"Don't worry, you are free from him." I gently caressed her back, she shivered at my touch. I made sure to keep [Sensual Touch] on. I smirked as I heard her hold down her moans. It's a futile effort, but cute as well.

After a few moments, I pushed her away from me, much to her disappointment. Looking at her in the eyes, I put my years' worth of experience in dating games to work.

"After I saved you, were you able to find help?" I know the answer already, she works for Olga, the Dark Queen. But she doesn't know that. Besides, one of the best things to do with a girl you met after so long is to question her to get her to open up to you.

And if my guess is right…

She blinks before looking down slightly. "Y-Yes. After you saved me, I managed to find someone willing to help me." A smile starts to form from her lips, likely remembering Olga taking her in after I saved her. If I was in control of my younger self, I would have taken Chloe in, but alas, things have to be let go…

But then again, I will get what I want in the end.

But it seems that she doesn't go any further. Understandable, given who took her in is considered the most dangerous woman in Eostia.

"I see…" Shifting myself to be able to hide my lips as I gave her an eye smile, I asked another question. "Are you living a good life now?" Her eyes glanced down to her sides, looking guilty. "Yes…I do. My caretaker cares for me, and to thank her I do many things for her." In all likeliness, she doesn't regret any of it. But what she does regret is not telling me the whole story.

I can see her lips quivering ever so slightly. A sign that she doesn't like keeping things from me. Good. While she sees Olga as the one who took her in, I'm the one who freed her in the first place. She met Olga because I freed her, everything that happened to her is due to my actions.

And while Olga has taken care of her for many years, the fact remains that she only met Olga because of me. She would have met Olga regardless but because of me, that has changed. She met me, probably the only human that has shown her kindness, and then she met Olga.

Closing my eyes, I let out a sigh as I once again hugged her. She melts into my embrace as she draws me closer to her. I looked down and raised a brow as I noticed a familiar-looking pouch. 'Oh? She kept it, how cute.' Glancing at her hair, I smirked as I took note of her hairstyle. 'She kept the same style when 'I' saved her.'

"You kept it."

"Huh?"

Pulling away from her, I looked at the pouch strapped to her hip. She followed my gaze, stopping on the pouch. It's simply a small brown pouch that looks like it has been through a lot. I can see some scratches and some tears but other than that it's still in great condition. Just seeing that tells me one thing: she is sentimental. The pouch means a lot to her because it is what 'I' gave her when 'I' saved her.

'And judging from the smell…' I leaned forward and chuckled. "Strawberries." Chloe looked slightly flushed as she nervously looked down. Seeing this, I smiled as I reached for her pouch, opened it, and grabbed a single strawberry from before closing it. It seems she hasn't noticed.

Chuckling, I gently grabbed her chin and pushed the strawberry against her lips. She seemed surprised for a brief moment before opening her lips to welcome the strawberry in her mouth.

[+10 Affection with Chloe!]

[Chloe – 65/100 Affection]

Her cheeks reddened as she proceeded to chew the small fruit inside her mouth. I hummed while watching her. "You know, you're cute when you look like that." The Dark Elf stopped for a moment before focusing her eyes to the side to hide her embarrassment.

I smiled as I closed my eyes and looked up, enjoying the cool air breezing around us. With her affection being that high, would kissing her now be an option? Sure, we've just met now but she sees me as the human who saved her from a life of slavery, and in turn, she developed a crush on me.

'Ah, that's right. [Fetish Zoom]"

Chloe

Fetishes: Masochist, Submissive, Vanilla, ?, ?

She loves vanilla. I can see it given how she was treated in the past. She wants to be treated right. To be able to experience the one thing she was denied at such a young age.

Thanks to Mandeville, note to self: get rid of him as soon as possible, she was the unfortunate witness to the scum that had the power to do whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted and had grown accustomed to getting what they desired through any means.

Now here's an interesting idea, she loves vanilla, and she loves me. Which means I can kiss her now if I want. Looking at her lips, I barely kept myself from licking my own. 'Come on Abhainn, she won't have any problem kissing you!' I mentally berated myself as I masked my face with confidence before grabbing her chin.

Before she could utter a response, I leaned in and pressed my lips against hers. I kept my eyes open to see Chloe's reaction to all of this. She didn't think this would happen to her and I don't let this chance pass up. The good news is that she makes no attempts to push me away. I decide to risk it even more and our tongues intertwine with the taste of strawberry still lingering in her mouth. When I pull back for some air, a small bridge of saliva still connects and her eyes become slightly dazed. I allow myself a small laugh as I raise my thumb to wipe it off her lips. And to enjoy the moment, even more, I take the saliva I wiped off and press it to my lips.

"Food should always be shared, right?"

[Chloe – 75/100 Affection]

'[Horny Meter]'

Chloe – 45/100

Chloe nodded dumbly, obviously out of it. Her cheeks are flushed red, her eyes are glazed, and from what I can tell, she's not thinking straight. Evident by how she's leaning forward with her lips puckered. 'Well, what do you know? She's really into it.' I chuckled as she whined, impatient at how I'm leaving her hanging for several seconds.

Smirking, I leaned forward and claimed her lips once again. She moaned happily as I ravished her tongue with mine. Grabbing her shoulders, I pulled her against me, she followed as she climbed on my lap. I felt the bulge forming from between my legs, effectively rubbing against her thong-covered womanhood.

She moans as she pushes her chest against mine. Creeping my hands down to her back, I felt her shiver as I used [Sensual Touch] while rubbing her back down to her ass.

Her moans vibrate the inside of my mouth before separating for another gasp of air. Her face is now flushed, her breathing heavy, and the smile on her face tells me that she enjoys it as I continue my fondling of her ass. This time, she is the one to initiate the kiss when she grabs both sides of my face and leans in.

"You're quite a needy woman, you know?" I chuckled before giving her another deep kiss, wrestling and dominating her tongue. I squeezed her ass while rubbing my crotch against hers. Her eyes widened for a brief moment before deciding to grind her covered womanhood against my raging bulge more.

'[Horny Meter]'

Chloe – 60/100

'That's it. Show it to me! Your slutty side!' I felt my sadistic side burn in excitement as I raised a hand and gave Chloe's ass a spank. Her eyes widened as she pulled her lips away from me to release a whine of pain with a mix of pleasure in it.

"W-What are you doing?" I hummed as I softly grabbed her chin to look at her in the eyes. "I'm giving you what you want, Chloe. Your ass is really sensitive and I just can't help but feel the need to spank it." I leaned closer to her ears and blew into it. She let out a yelp as she held onto me for support. "And I felt the need to mark it with my hand. After all, you are mine." I growled into her ear before spanking her ass once more.

She let out a soft moan as she held onto me tighter. I smirked as I pulled her closer to me, allowing me to hear her lustful pants. Squeezing her ass cheeks together, I marveled at how firm it was, it felt as if I was molding clay. I felt her covered womanhood rub against my crotch, causing her to let out sweet moans while I spread her ass.

I felt a lustful grin spread across my face as I felt the temptation to get rid of my pants and slide them right in between her cheeks.

But not now.

For now, she will have to make do with some spankings. 'Speaking of…' I raised a hand and spanked her ass once more. This time, I heard her squeal as I felt something wet spray into my crotch. I raised a brow as I gave Chloe a nibble on her ears.

If there's one thing that's been evident for every elf, it's that elf ears are sensitive.

Immediately, she yelped as she squirmed under my touch, squeezing her soft globes of flesh further against me. Her yelps quickly turned into moans as I rubbed her soft back with [Sensual Touch]. With one of my hands, I gently grabbed her by the chin and looked at her in the eyes.

"Did you just cum?" She looked down on the side, feeling excited at how much I am being dominant with her. When she didn't answer, I smirked as I leaned in closer to her and tugged on her chin, causing her to finally look at me in the eyes. "I won't ask again, did you cum?" She closed her eyes as she shivered in excitement.

Clearly, with the way she is acting, she is enjoying this. A lot.

"Y-Yes…"

I chuckled as I rubbed my thumb against her lips before reaching out to her strawberry pouch and grabbing one. She eyed the small red fruit in confusion, this confusion turned to excitement as I gave her a wink before pressing it to my lips.

"A good and honest answer deserves a reward." I bit into the strawberry and chewed for a few seconds before leaning in to kiss her. She eagerly leans in, ready to accept the strawberry-flavored kiss. Our lips connected once again as our tongues intertwined.

She happily moaned as the flavor of strawberry entered her mouth, I felt satisfaction as Chloe hungrily kissed me, hungry for more of my affections. Her moans reverberated throughout the woods, yet she kept on going. I grabbed the back of her head and pulled her against mine, not only further deepening the kiss but also allowing me to explore the entirety of her mouth.

She let out a muffled moan as she tried to fight back against my tongue. For a few seconds, our intense lip lock continues before she lets out a loud yet still muffled moan. I looked at her eyes and almost laughed as I saw her eyes, full of submissive pleasure, roll up.

Pulling away from her lips before licking mine, I allowed myself a chuckle as Chloe pants, clearly satisfied after cumming twice in a row.

Looking down at my pants, I sighed as I noticed a very wet patch on my bulge. Clearly, Chloe is very…efficient at squirting. 'Well, with the way things went, I shouldn't be surprised or disappointed when a part of me becomes wet. Especially since this is a hentai world, after all.' I thought to myself as I watched Chloe twitch, a stupid smile on her face.

I licked my lips as I eyed her sweaty and toned body. There is always something about girls with dark skin that makes them hotter than girls with lighter skin.

'Dark chocolate covered with white cream is good…but a tanned girl with a glistening body thanks to sweat is also good.' I chuckled darkly as I grabbed one of her tits and squeezed. Unfortunately, she seems to not notice how euphoric her face looks.

While I wouldn't mind fucking her now. I don't see the point when it would be like fucking a doll. Yes, it will feel good, but I want to hear someone moan and cry out my name as I ravish them and make them mine.

Hearing sexy moans from a girl who got absolutely fucked until they can't think is sexy, but there's something else about having a girl who still has some senses moan out for you to hear.

Cupping one of her breasts, I hummed in appreciation as I squeezed the soft flesh. I felt it spilling through my fingers, making me grin lecherously. It's not big, but it's big enough for me to grab a handful. "Good," I muttered before frowning as I eyed the cape. "But this needs to go." Unclipping her cape, I tossed it to the side without a care.

Besides, why do I need to care for that when I have something delicious in front of me?

"Hmm?" Blinking momentarily, I glanced nehind Chloe's back and spotted a familiar blue hair. 'Esdeath? What is sh-oh…' I barely held on to my surprise as I noticed her panting heavily, her body moving is moving erratically, as if she was doing something…vigorous…

Glancing down, I raised a brow as I saw a wet puddle forming around the bush she was in. 'Is she a fucking waterfall or something?' I chuckled as I turned my attention back to Chloe with a glint in my eyes. "Time for a show." Licking my lips, I shifted Chloe around my lap, with some difficulty. Turning her back towards me, I spread her legs and barely held back the temptation to fuck her here now.

"Damn, you're really flexible, Chloe." She shivered at my compliment, making me smirk at how quick she was to regain her consciousness.

[+5 Affection with Chloe!]

[Chloe – 80/100 Affection]

Shifting through her so-called clothing, I growled lustfully as I took a look at her pink nipples, already hard and standing, tempting me to suck and tease them. She moaned as I grabbed both nipples and proceeded to tug, twist, and pinch them. It certainly looks hard and stretchy enough to do so.

Watching Esdeath, I smirked as her body movement got faster and certainly a lot rougher.

Esdeath

Pumping three of her fingers in her pussy, Esdeath moans as she watches her lord play around with the Dark Elf. She doesn't know who the Dark Elf is, but with how her lord easily dominated her earlier, she shouldn't worry.

'The bitch is grateful that she's receiving his affection right now, as she should.' A bit of drool leaves her mouth as Abhainn inserts two of his fingers inside her pussy. 'Chloe is her name if what I heard is correct.' Esdeath reminds herself as she watches Abhainn turn Chloe into a moaning mess. The Dark Elf moves her hips in tandem with her lord's fingers, giving Esdeath a show.

Abhainn smirked as he captured her lips with his own. Esdeath can see that Chloe is already losing at the battle between their tongues, again, as it should be. She spasms as she wraps her arms around his neck, lovingly caressing him.

While both of them were kissing, his fingers didn't stop and neither did Esdeath's. Biting back a moan, Esdeath took off her breastplate, letting her tits free, and started to pinch them, playing them. 'It's close!' Esdeath thought to herself as she doubled her efforts of pleasuring herself. She has already been there since the start; it is a wonder how Abhainn seems to attract almost everything.

Chloe grinds her ass against his crotch, making him smirk at how needy she looks. 'She looks like she wants him. To fuck her senseless, to make her his.' Esdeath held a lustful grin as she imagined Chloe falling to worship her lord's glorious cock in all of its glory.

Gulping, Esdeath felt lips open as her tongues stretched out as if yearning for the touch of his large meat rod. To lick it and lather it with her drool, and in turn, to shower her with his virile seed. 'Oh, how I miss it already.' She moans to herself as she inserted another finger into her slobbering hole.

"I want it." She whispered hotly as she watched Abhainn pull away from Chloe's lips. The Dark Elf's eyes look hazy with lust as her tongue stretches out, begging for more. Her lord chuckled as he stopped his fingers entirely.

Her eyes widened in distress as she eyes Abhainn's bright green eyes. His eyes are full of sadistic mischief, fueled by her attempts to move her hips to pleasure herself with his fingers. But despite moving her hips, she can't seem to feel good.

'She is moaning, but it's not as loud as before when he was fingering her.' Esdeath felt a shiver run down her spine as she can already see how desperate Chloe was getting to finish.

"Do you want to cum, Chloe?" A teasing smirk formed from Abhainn's lips as he breathed hot air towards her neck. Her body shivered, enticing Abhainn but managing to control it.

'As expected of him.'

Instead of answering, Chloe whines. His eyes narrowed as he shifted his fingers in her pussy, causing a jolt of pleasure to edge her closer to orgasm, but not enough for her to reach it. "Answer me, Chloe. Otherwise, this is all you're getting as my woman." He growls into her ear. Gulping loudly as both Esdeath and Abhainn watch her willingly swallow her pride for pleasure, the Dark Elf let out a shaky breath.

"Y-Yes…" Smirking smugly, he hummed as he closed his eyes. "I don't know. I think I misheard something. Quite disappointing coming from my woman." He teased, slowly pulling his fingers out of her pussy. Her eyes widened as something inside her clicked. "I want to cum! Please let me cum my lord! Give this slutty Dark Elf your attention and make her cum!" This seemed to surprise him for a moment before a wide grin spread across his face as he leaned closer to Chloe.

"Good answer!" He stated loudly before biting into her ear and letting his fingers run wild. Pinching, twisting, and pulling her hardened nipples while her pussy eagerly accepts and sucks his fingers deeper inside her. All for the goal of bringing her close to finish. Chloe's moans got louder as she seductively moves her body in tandem with his movements. Desperately grinding her ass against his hardening member, Chloe's pussy started to secrete more juices, likely imagining how big it is and how hard he'll fuck her.

Esdeath hungrily bites into one of her nipples as she furiously pumps her fingers into her pussy while occasionally pinching her clit with her other hand. Her muffled moans started to grow heavier and a lot louder, but she didn't care. All she cares about is achieving her orgasm alongside the new toy that is named Chloe.

She can already see it. She and several other women squirm as he takes them all, burying his manly length deep inside until their body only craves for him. His slimy baby batter filling them all up, covering them all with his musky scent.

'With how much he let out the last time…' She hornily thought to herself as she can already imagine the many holes he will fill to the brim. She pushed her fingers deeper into her sopping hole, filled with her wild imaginations of him leaving parts of himself deep inside the wombs of the women he will eventually claim.

Breathing heavily through her nose, she eyed them both lustfully. Imagining herself joining and playing with the Dark Elf's body. Her moans will be music to Esdeath's ears, just seeing Chloe's ass was enough almost enough to make Esdeath reveal herself so that she can bring out her whip and lash at it.

'Oh, I wonder how her bare ass would look like with lashes?' Just the thought of it is bringing her closer to her release.

"Oh? Your pussy is tightening up, are you about to cum?" Abhainn breathed into Chloe's ear, causing her to yelp before moaning as she felt one of her nipples being teased once again. She let out a sweet moan as she turned her head towards him, letting him look at her eyes cloudy with need. He raised a brow as she leaned her head towards him. "Please," She whined as she looked at him deeply in the eyes, his eyes widened briefly before a smug smile appeared on his lips.

"Very well."

He leaned in, Chloe squealed happily as she eagerly puckers her lips and lovingly presses hers against his. Her submissive squirming excites Esdeath even more as she twirled her tongue around her nipple. 'Almost there!' Esdeath's eyes widened as she watched Chloe pull her lips away from Abhainn before letting out a loud and throaty moan from Abhainn's pleasurable touch.

"Cum! Let everyone hear what my slut sounds like!" This brought her closer to the edge as her back arched. "Cumming! I'm cumming for my master like a slut! Please watch this worthless Dark Elf cum for you! MASTER!" Her loud moans reverberated throughout the forest as Abhainn pinched her clit, causing a shower of her love juice to spray all over.

At the same time, Esdeath released her own moan, not caring if she was heard. Besides, her lord probably knows that she was watching the whole time. Her pussy let out a torrent of her own pussy juices spraying against her hand and dripping down against the forest floor. She held still for a few moments, relishing the afterglow of her orgasm as her legs twitch ever so slightly.

"Cumming for mashter…feelsh sho good…" Chloe's words came out slurred as her tongue hangs off of her lips, a stupidly satisfied expression on her face. Abhainn chuckles as a lustful smile forms from his lips, seeing this, Esdeath shivers as she remembers that Abhainn is a predator that does not need teeth or claws.

Abhainn

[+10 Affection with Chloe!]

[Chloe – 90/100 Affection]

Pulling my wet hand away from her snatch, I took a good look at it before licking my hand, tasting Chloe. Looking down at her, I hummed as I gave her tits one last grope before fixing her all up. She will still have some signs here and there, specifically her lower half, but she'll be fine. Gently placing her down beside me, I eyed her body with hunger clear in my eyes.

'Much as I want to fuck her now, I already made up my mind to save it for Prim.' I thought to myself as I shifted my pants in an effort to hide my bulge as much as possible. Much to my annoyance, it doesn't work. "Oh well, with a dick as big as mine, I doubt any man can hide it even if it's soft," I mumbled before sighing as I glanced at the bush where Esdeath is at.

I didn't hear anything from her, but I did hear her moan when she came, so at least I can say that she enjoyed the show I provided.

"Ah…"

Turning to my side, I raised a brow as Chloe looked at me with an ashamed look. However, before I could utter a word, she looked to the side as she clenched her fist. I frowned; I can understand why she is ashamed. While she loves me, she is a former slave. She sees herself as a broken toy, and when her personality slipped, to her, she showed me that she has already been used and likely thinks that it's unsightly. While yes, I did find it unsightly, I still find it hot.

She is a former slave, and I am a noble. It may be cliché but she sees that as a reason that she doesn't deserve me, especially since someone else has already taken her virginity. Even after all that we did, all it took was her to slip into her other self, back when she was a slave.

Recognizing the signs, I quickly grabbed her hand before she could do anything and tugged her gently towards me. She gasped as I gently wrapped my arms around her.

My goal is to get the heroines to be a part of my harem through any means necessary, but that doesn't mean I'm cold-hearted. Chloe belongs to me, and while I will be rough with her during sex if she wants to, I will ultimately treat her right. I consider myself an evil person, but not all villains are pure evil. I act on my wants and desires, and those that I get are my own treasures.

"There is no shame in it, Chloe," I whispered to her softly, making sure to hold on to her tightly as she relaxed at my touch. With her calling me her master earlier, it scared her, unwanted memories surfaced during our session. While I did enjoy what we did, I will have to be careful with her. I did find Chloe calling me her master and as well as acting like a bitch in heat hot, but I also enjoy her own bashful side.

"I…I showed you something…" She sobbed as she buried her face on my chest. Smiling softly, I closed my eyes as I began to hum. I am a bard, and a soothing tune of humming will certainly help. My humming is slow yet gentle. Chloe started to relax as her body began to loosen each second. The forest trees around us danced, the animals relaxed, somehow knowing to remain quiet to give us some much-needed privacy. My smile widened as she snuggled closer to me, her sobs starting to slow down with each second.

Taking this as a chance, I gently grabbed her chin and lifted her head to look at mine. "Chloe, despite everything that has happened to you, I will not let you go." Her eyes widened briefly as her lips quivered. "R-Really? You will never let me go? To disca-" Hushing her by placing a finger on her lips, I placed my forehead against hers, never letting my eyes go off to look anywhere else.

"You are important to me, Chloe." Her cheeks reddened as I felt her breath stop for a moment. Her affection for me is 90, so now is a good time to say it. "I love you, Chloe. Even all your flaws," Tears started to trail down her eyes as I held her by her cheeks and wiped the tears away. "All your perfect imperfections, I love them all." I almost smiled but managed to stop it with a chuckle. Her soft skin was quite the wonder to touch and rub against. But then again, she is a Dark Elf, there's probably something about Dark Elf biology that keeps their skins soft.

"I accept ALL of you, Chloe. No matter what. Never forget that." And then, I closed the distance between our lips. Earlier, our kisses were full of lust and hunger for each other, this time this kiss was gentle, loving, passionate.

[+9 Affection with Chloe!]

[Chloe – 99/100 Affection]

She closed her eyes as tears of happiness trailed down her cheeks as she wrapped her hands around my neck. After a few seconds, we pulled away, I patted myself on the back as Chloe gave me a beautiful and bashful smile. I chuckled as I wiped away the rest of her tears.

She can be really cute at times.

I blinked as I noticed movement from the corner of my eyes. Looking at it, my eyes widened briefly as a bunch of hamsters crawled around the grass curiously. Looking at Chloe, a teasing smile formed from my lips. She noticed this and looked confused.

Good, this will be a very pleasant surprise.

Putting my hand to my cloak, I grabbed [Lucky Wood] in my inventory and brought the mouthpiece close to my lips. As soon as I did so, Chloe smiled as she sat comfortably beside me. Keeping my eyes on the hamsters, I played my flute.

'Come on little guys, help me out here.'

Closing my eyes, I played music from one of the best movies back before I became a gamer, Lord of the Rings, Sound of the Shire. It all starts slow, gentle, and warm. I smirked as I watched the hamsters looking up at me, good.

While most of the instruments used for the majority are violins, I can make do with some improvising. The music became louder, faster, and yet it still retains its atmospheric tone. It started to go a bit sharper and increased in pitch.

The hamsters, differing in size and color of fur, started to approach us, helping each other out along the way. While playing, I felt a single trail of sweat go down my cheek as the hamsters were not a dozen or so…instead, there's a horde of them…chirping and clicking in excitement.

'And here I thought the most abundant animals in the forests are rabbits…' I thought to myself as I watched the hamsters climb up the rock we were sitting on, and as if knowing what I wanted them to do, the horde of fluff surrounded Chloe and began to nuzzle around and rub against her. Chloe blinked in surprise as she hesitantly gave a hamster back its affection with a gentle caress. The other animals around us got closer, the smaller ones such as rabbits and foxes made their way towards us while the bigger animals settled for being closer to us.

"Hey, that tickles!" Chloe giggled as a rabbit rubbed its head against hers, tickling her nose with its ears. Usually, foxes would go after rabbits and rodents such as hamsters, but thanks to me they are all friends, for now.

I don't know if the animals will go back to being predators and prey, but if it happens it happens, as unfortunate as that is.

The same wolf pup nuzzles its snout all over my arm, making me smile as I paused for a few seconds to give it a quick pat on the head before going back to playing my flute. The tune now sports a playful tone as my fingers dance around the holes while taking a quick second to inhale some much-needed oxygen every so often. This continues for a few moments before I let out a harmony of high pitch tunes that everyone enjoyed listening to. The tune then suddenly came to a stop as I pulled the flute away from my lips.

Turning my attention towards Chloe, I barely held a laugh as I watched her being surrounded by affectionate animals all vying for her attention of pats and scratches. She seemed overwhelmed but she was clearly enjoying it if her smile was any indication.

Putting my flute in my cloak to put it in my inventory, I skooched closer to her to wrap my arm around her shoulder. She jumped slightly in surprise before looking at me with a smile as she leaned into me happily. The animals around us let out their respective noises as they all settled down.

If one were to look at us, then I bet they would coo at how cute we look acting like a loving couple. Yes, I do love Chloe and she loves me. But that is because I want her to be in my harem. She loves me because I accept her for who she is, and also because in the past I saved her.

I raised my brows as the bush where Esdeath is hiding started to rustle before she stood up. The sudden action caused Chloe to stop and look at Esdeath, her eyes mixed in worry and fear. Her cheeks are flushed and I can see the hunger in her eyes.

Oh boy…

"Esdeath," The moment I said her name, Chloe sprung to action as she jumped away and ran to the woods. I paused for a second before chasing after her, this is Esdeath, she might chase after Chloe since she is running.

"Wa-urgh!" I felt a strong grip grab me by the scruff of my neck before I felt myself land on my knees and a wet feeling on my face. Opening my eyes, I came face to face with Esdeath's wet pussy, causing me to sigh internally.

'Of course, she's horny, why did I think otherwise?' I thought with a roll of my eyes as I bit into her clit with no warning, the result was her moaning as her legs shook before eventually losing their strength. I can't let her get on top of me now. I have to show my dominance here.

Esdeath fell with a thud, her legs spread, showing me her glistening pussy. She was looking at me in the eyes, waiting. I let out a deviant smirk as I lowered my head to begin eating her out. Closing my eyes as my tongue pierced her fleshy debts, already tasting her.

'She tastes vastly different…wonder how the rest of them taste like?' I thought to myself as I hungrily kissed her pussy lips.

New Quest!

[You Only Lick Once]

Objective: Taste all 11 of the heroines' pussies

Secret Objective: ?

Rewards: 10,000 gold and 10,00 exp for each pussy tasted, perk [God's Tongue]

Secret Rewards: ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, and ?

My eyes flashed with greed as a thought occurred to me. 'If I manage to taste one of the heroine's pussy, will I get the rewards in advance? Food for thought.' I then resumed licking Esdeath out, turning her into a moaning mess.

Thank fuck for perks.

Grace

Poking at the piece of fish on her plate, Grace sighed as she mulled over the offer of the Baron's son. A very generous offer, from what she can see. She will become his personal maid and serve him, and if what he says is true, she will serve him and only him. From what she can understand, she will answer to him alone. In return, he will protect her, and in extension, he will also protect Anna and her husband, Ian.

"Hey Grace, you know that the fish won't move no matter how many times you poke at it?" Snapping out of her thought, she looks at Anna showing her a gentle smile. The High Elf put down her utensils on her plate before gently grabbing her hands. "If you want my opinion on that matter, I'd say take it." Grace frowned as she looked deep into Anna's eyes. "But what about you and Ian? I can't just leave you both while I attend to Ab-Lord Abhainn. Not after what you've done for me."

"You don't need to worry about that. You've already done plenty for both of us. Besides, if you want to help both Ian and I even more, then take his offer." Giving her friend a wink, Anna let go of Grace's hands. "He said that you will be properly compensated for your work. I know you, Grace, you are the most caring and hardworking person I know. And as he said, he will also offer his protection to us, this is nothing but a win for all three of us."

"I don't know about that."

Both of them blinked as they looked to the side and saw Anna's husband, a young man named Ian, entered the room with a skeptical look on his face. "He's a noble, isn't he? He's probably just after Grace." At this, Anna frowned as she looked at her husband with a sharp look, causing him to flinch slightly. "Ian, I have seen many nobles in all my life, and he is one of the few upstanding ones I have met. There's no reason to talk behind his back like that."

Sighing to herself, she faked a cough before taking a sip of water. "And his father, Lord Calarus, is a former knight. It is highly likely that he has been taught the ways of chivalry and has been properly educated when it comes to courtesy." Glancing at her husband, he sighed as he held up his hands in surrender. "Fine, I just hope nothing goes wrong." He muttered, leaving the room while shivering as he felt his wife's gaze on his back.

Looking at the exchange, Grace smiles fondly, finding their interactions cute. 'As always, Ian is such a worrywart. No wonder it took him a few years to encourage himself to marry her.' Cutting a piece of her fish, she hummed as she took a bite of it. 'I guess I can talk to him tomorrow. I know it may seem rude to not give him an answer right away, but I need a bit more time. I hope he can forgive me for that, at least.' A faint smile formed from her luscious lips while a small dust of pink crept up to her cheeks, remembering the moment when he gently held her hands in worry.

Abhainn

[+5 Reputation with Grace Campbell!]

[Grace Campbell – 90/100 Reputation]

I blinked at the notification before groaning as I felt myself release another load into Esdeath's waiting mouth…only for her to keep going a few seconds after, causing me to shiver as I felt her tongue encircling around my sensitive glans.

Needless to say, it was quite an eventful morning.

5 hours later

After an uneventful lunch, I am currently following Esdeath down to the dungeons. I gave her a gift earlier, it's only right that I inspect how well she's treating it. A pair of guards unlocked the dungeon door, not batting an eye at the fact that I'm entering it.

'Good, these men know not to question anything.'

Looking around me, I took note that most of the cells are empty, only having a few men here and there. All of them cowered when they noticed Esdeath passing by them, they were all silent and I can see the terror in their eyes. They didn't make a sound as we approached a doorless room.

In that room, there is a large cauldron with some water that is being boiled, various torture tools hanging on the walls, and perhaps the most frightening is a chair having straps on the wrists and knee areas…and as well as having some spikes…

'Yikes, if I remember correctly, those things are called iron chairs.' I gulped before turning to another chair, this time with no spikes, and strapped to that chair is Morgan, naked. The mercenary has had better days. A bruised nose, some missing teeth, and a black eye.

"It seems that you have done quite a number on him…but it's not enough." As soon as I said the last part, Morgan's remaining eye widened in fear as tears threatened to fall from it. Esdeath looked ecstatic as she eyed Morgan with sadistic glee. "Why of course, my lord. He has felt the tip of the spear."

"Please! Please don't let her do this! I'm sorry, okay?! I'll give up being a mercenary! I'll work as a fa-" Before he could continue, I snapped my fingers, leading Esdeath to kick him in the face. I smirked as a few molars flew out of Morgan's bloody mouth. "You are only allowed to speak if you are permitted by my lord." She hissed, watching Morgan sob as he forced himself to keep quiet despite the pain.

"This is my revenge for hitting me last night. Serves you right for daring to even touch me." I smugly stated, watching him look at me with disbelief. This only served to fuel my ego against him, and it feels so good. He opened his mouth before stopping, remembering what Esdeath told him. Walking near him, I closed my eyes as I let out a chuckle. "You might be thinking why am I doing this when all you did was punch me? Well, let me tell you something, dog." I spat at him.

"When you get hit, you want revenge, but revenge isn't just throwing back a bigger punch, no, it's all about taking everything that matters to them." I held three of my fingers for him to see. "Their dignity," I closed one of my fingers. "Their sense of worth," And another finger. "And above all else…their very manhood," I smirked as my last finger went down, glancing at Esdeath, I gave her the go-ahead signal. Her eyes widened in sadistic excitement as she formed a sword and began to approach the helpless mercenary.

Realizing the situation and how fucked he is if he doesn't do anything, the mercenary panicked as he started to struggle before looking up at Esdeath approaching him, finally he breaks.

"Wait! Please! Please don't do this!" I frowned as I held a hand towards Esdeath, causing her to stop. I shook my head in disappointment as I looked at Morgan, he looked so hopeful, that perhaps I am willing to let him go.

But unfortunately for him, there is only one end to him.

"You disappoint me, have you forgotten that you are not supposed to talk unless I give you permission?" I gave him a false look of disappointment, his only unblackened eye widened as the realization settled in on him. "Supposedly, I would only have Esdeath take off your dick…" I then gave him a malicious smile. "But it looks like we will have to completely give you a change of gender!" Sweat poured from his very body as I slowly lowered my hand that was holding the sadistic woman eager to fulfill my pitiless order.

"Please no! Have mercy! Ple-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" He screams as Esdeath stabs the ice sword right at the center of his crotch. I cringed slightly as his screams grew louder when Esdeath started to slowly slice the meat stick and sack.

Looking out to the entrance of the dungeon, I hummed as a cruel smile formed from my lips. "One of you, get Ōkami!" I loudly called out to the guards. One of them moved to the side to look at me. "Yes, my lord!" He then turned and left his post to find my wolf.

"NO M-AAAAAAAGH!" Morgan screamed in pain as Esdeath finally delivers he final blow to his entire manhood. Stepping away, I watched as the strapped mercenary sobbed in pain as he watched his pride fall off and land on the floor with a wet plop. Esdeath eyed the bloody sword before shrugging as she tossed it down towards the boiling cauldron. The boiling water gained a slight red hue afterward.

Bark!

Raising a brow, I saw Ōkami running towards me, his tail wagging. Looking down at the bloody sausage and eggs, I frowned while shaking my head. "I was thinking of feeding Ōkami your second head…but what kind of owner am I to even think of feeding him something…filthy? And even if I did, I doubt it would be enough seeing how small it is." I let out a mocking grin.

Hearing this, Esdeath giggled as she looked down at it in disgust. "Then it's a good thing you're after that Dark Elf. If you had not interfered, she would be forced to have endured something so…inadequate." She mocked the man. I chuckled as I gave Ōkami a headpat. "Get rid of that sad excuse of what he calls his pride," I ordered with a wave of my hand.

"Gladly." My sadistic blue-haired bodyguard obliged as she held her hands up and created a hammer made out of ice before slamming it down on the discarded member, perfectly turning it into a bloody paste.

Looking at Morgan I sighed as I noticed that he doesn't seem to respond anymore, all he's doing is looking down at the floor while occasionally sobbing. "Ōkami, kill." My wolf growled as he pounced on the mercenary, he screamed as he felt Ōkami bite into his face then to his neck.

Esdeath and I just watched as Ōkami tore the man's neck open, leaving him to gurgle and drown in his own blood. I let Ōkami have his fun for a few more seconds before whistling for him to stop. He did so and looked up at me after going back to my side.

A moment of silence gave me a quick idea.

'Let's see if this works…stats.'

Got a decent amount of experience, almost halfway to leveling up.

I smiled as I leaned down slightly to give him some well-deserved headpats. "Who's a good boy? Who's a good little murderer?" I coo, causing Ōkami to bark happily. Looking at Esdeath, I chuckled as I noticed her giving me a slight pout. Likely upset from having Morgan be killed without having her fill with torturing the man.

"Don't worry Esdeath, Morgan has already been broken when he lost his own manhood. No reason to keep him around. Besides," I walked towards her and wrapped an arm around her waist, a heavy blush crept up to her cheeks as her lips curled to a sultry smile. "I'm sure we can find some more to toy around with." I gave her a quick peck before making my way to leave.

"When they beg you for mercy, you give them none," I stated as I walked past many cells with some of them having some prisoners trying to look as small as possible down at the corner of the walls. This gave me a satisfying sense of superiority, making me smirk. "Give them every reason to regret their choices, give them every reason why fucking with you was the worst decision they ever made, and most of all, make them live in fear until their very last breath." Stopping by the entrance of the dungeon, I turned towards Esdeath. I raised a brow as I noticed a trail of arousal leading from her crotch.

Heh.

"Be sure to remember those words, Esdeath."

With that, I left the dungeon.

Next day

Waking up and having breakfast was boring really. I had nothing much to do, and given that I am purely for support, I can't do the usual grinding, and even then, I don't have access to ID dungeons, leading me to either finding ones or just going for the old way of doing things, which is just me wandering around with others to kill monsters and people, anything.

In all honesty, the lands around me are fairly safe. The mountains help keep the monsters off of our backs, and the most life-threatening thing around these parts is a bear. And considering my perk, then I have no problems with the wildlife around me at all. So far, the only ones I have encountered as hostile is Morgan himself, and even then, he wasn't that much of a threat, to begin with.

'Since my STR is locked at 5, I can't even train myself. At best, I have to make plans upon plans just to compensate for it.' I sat on a chair, looking outside.

It is quite late in the morning now and since I don't have much to do, I figured I would just stay at home and wait for Grace to reply. Given how I got an increase in reputation with her yesterday, then I can confidently say that she is going to make her decision today.

"With Grace falling in, how do I get Anna?" I hummed playfully with a wry grin. As much as I want to grab Anna at the same time with Grace, I first need to deal with her husband. NTR is a dick move and is rather tasteless, in my opinion. The best I can do is turn her into a widow, but even then, how do I get rid of him without it being traced to me? Yes, I can persuade others that it's not me, but I'd rather not risk it seeing as my reputation will be on the line.

Standing up, I fixed my clothes and looked outside, only to blink as I noticed a familiar sexy Dark Elf standing in front of the main gate. From the way she is pacing back and forth, I can tell that she is nervous. But this makes me happy.

She has finally made her decision.

Leaving the room, I went down the stairs, not minding the busy maids running around to do their chores. I stopped for a moment to order a maid to prepare some tea. She may be coming here just to accept my offer, but I can't just have her leave so soon after going here. It's bad manners to do so.

Opening the double doors, I took a breath of fresh air before stepping foot outside. Once I do so, I spotted Grace trying to make some conversation with the guards who are currently interrogating her. Clearly, she looks intimidated. That will not do.

"Gentlemen." The guards tensed as they turned towards me and greeted me with a salute. "Good morning, my lord!" I nodded towards them before focusing my attention on Grace. She looks relieved to see me, not that I would blame her. "Open the gates, I will not have my guest remain standing when I have a table with refreshments ready for her." Both of them paled as they frantically opened the gate to allow Grace in. She slowly walked inside, causing me to chuckle.

This is likely her first time being in a place like this. Barons may be the lowest rank for nobles, but a noble is a noble, and all nobles have an estate at least and a castle at most. Walking through the gates, I nodded as I turned to walk.

"Follow me. Seeing as you went through the trouble of coming here, I should at least make you comfortable."

[+5 Reputation with Grace Campbell!]

[Grace Campbell – 95/100 Reputation]

'Nice, just five more until I get her affection rolling.' I felt my lips curve into a smile as I entered the castle with Grace in tow. Once entering the main hall, she marvels at the sight. Maids walking around to do their work, the decorations around the walls, the statues, everything.

"Welcome, please make yourself comfortable." I turned towards her. She blinked as a maid came through a room and bowed to me. "My lord, your table is ready." Glancing towards the maid, I hummed in approval. "Thank you, tend to us for the duration of our time." The maid bowed her head, this in turn caused a feeling of satisfaction to swell inside me.

After all, who doesn't like the feeling of someone being obedient to them?

"Yes, my lord. Please follow me upstairs."

Following the maid, I took notice of how nervous Grace looked. I frowned for a second before focusing as I climbed the stairs with Grace following right behind me. It was a few seconds of silence, but we reached our destination.

It was the balcony where I had tea with Alicia and Prim a few days ago. There is a table, some chairs, two cups of tea with their respective saucer, and a pot of tea. Moving quickly, I went behind one of the chairs and pulled on it before looking directly at Grace. She blinked for a few moments before giving me a small smile and approaching me.

"Thank you, my lord." She graciously accepts my offer before taking a seat. I gave myself a mental pat on the back before going to my seat. As soon as I took my seat, the maid took the teapot and began to steadily pour our cups with some tea.

"So, there is no reason to stall. You did not come here just to have a chat, did you?" I began as I took a small sip. The Dark Elf in front of me smiles as she grabs her cup and looks down at it, staring at her reflection. "No, my lord. I came here to accept your offer."

'Bingo.'

Nodding at her answer, I put my cup down. "Fantastic news, I will be sure to have the maids ready your room, and as promised, I extend my protection to your friend, Anna and…as well as her husband whom I realized I haven't met yet." I chuckled as I gave her a joking wink. She held a small laugh, clearly enjoying my company. "Thank you, my lord. It means so much to me, knowing that my friends will be safe."

I nodded. "It will take some time to get everything done. I will have to tell my father of the news; he will surely not mind me building my circle of subordinates." My father wanted me to be a knight, but it's impossible given how I am with a certain perk.

Since I am a bard and not a knight, my relationship with him is strained. We tolerate each other, but that's only because he wants to honor my late mother's wishes. But despite all this, he still wants to find someone to be something I can never be. My situation is similar to Klaus's. I cannot be a knight, but my father desires to have an heir to be a knight. I won't be surprised if he is trying to find a way for me to marry Alicia, the best knight second only to Claudia.

That will not do. People will see me as another Klaus if I get married to Alicia on my father's terms. If I were to be married to her, it would have to be on my terms to solidify that I am not cut from the same cloth as Klaus.

It will be humiliating seeing as people will quickly label me as someone who needs help to get through with life. It will not matter if I become the richest noble, people will still see me as someone who got married thanks to my father. I refuse to become someone like Klaus.

I closed my eyes as I took a sip of tea. The calming breeze along with the warm cup of tea does wonders in calming me down, even if slightly.

"My lord…" Opening my eyes, I was greeted by Grace looking at me nervously, her hands rubbing against her arms, and her luscious lips pressed against each other. I raised a brow before putting my cup down. "What of Morgan?" I blinked before humming as I leaned back to let out a sigh. "You will not have to worry about him anymore. He will never see the light of day again." Hearing this, Grace let out a sigh. "But you should know, he is a part of the Black Dogs…what if Vault…?" She let that hang in the air, I frowned a small bit after hearing his name.

'Fucking discount Guts…'

"You will not have to worry about him. We are in the mountains, many things happen here, and I doubt that he will hear of what has happened unless someone tells it to him." I gave her a practiced smile while giving her a confident wink. "And even if he does, it will only bring more trouble for him. After all, a leader is responsible for his subordinates' actions. The way I see it, he will leave Morgan out rather than risk anything. Especially after I tell him that one of his men slighted me." Chuckling to myself, I looked down at my reflection from the tea.

"There is nothing to worry about. We will handle everything else. Now drink your tea before it gets cold." She giggled slightly before drinking her tea.

Discreetly looking at her chest, I hid a smirk by drinking my tea.

'Soon.'

"Now then, let us discuss your living arrangements as well as your daily payments."

12 hours later

Grace

Cleaning the last table, Grace smiled as she wiped some sweat off of her cheek. The last customer just left minutes ago, drunk and happy, as per usual. "It looked like there were more customers than usual," Anna commented behind her, happily stacking some clean plates to clean for later.

Stopping for a moment, Grace chuckled to herself as she carried some tankards and set them down to the bar. "It's likely thanks to Lord Abhainn. Too bad he wasn't here to play music for us." Her friend hummed before nodding in agreement. "Last time he was here, he made things a lot livelier than usual. Music is really powerful."

"Who? That young lord? Well, with how the both of you talk, I can't help but agree." Ian grunted as he moved a table back in its original place. The place is a tavern, and when things get lively, there's bound to be a table or two that's been moved by the customers.

"Too bad we can't ask him to go here and play music for us whenever we need to. Since he's a noble, there is nothing we can do." Anna shrugged her shoulders as she set aside some leftovers from a plate. "Nobles don't do these things out of a whim. I'm still not sure about Grace accepting that offer." Her husband grumbled; arms crossed.

"Ian, I know that you're worried for Grace, but you have to trust the both of us and also trust Lord Abhainn to keep his word. He is very genuine." Anna exasperatedly stated, hands on her hips.

Seeing this, Grace can't help but feel awkward at being the third wheel in their conversation.

Click!

Blinking, Grace smiled as she turned towards the door. "I'm sorry, but we ar-" Her eyes widened as a dozen men entered the tavern one by one. They all look rough with various weapons strapped to their sides, some are even just holding their weapons outright.

She immediately felt fear as she noticed an emblem on one of the men's shoulders.

The emblem of a Black Dog.

Abhainn

Aside from discussing the arrangements with Grace, informing my father of finding my own personal maid, and as well as playing [Lucky Wood] to make sure my luck didn't deteriorate, nothing much happened. Sure, Honkus was walking around earlier with a bloody beak, but nothing else to take note of.

Staring at the stars, I smiled as I gave Ōkami a scratch behind his ears. He panted happily as his tail dusted against the grass. Beside me is Esdeath, looking around vigilantly. We may be just outside the castle walls, but there's no such thing as being too careful.

Taking in the cold air, I let out a smile as I watched an owl flying around before landing on a branch. While I plan to be a king with a harem to tend to my sexual needs, it's nice to have a quiet night like this. All the silence, the soothing breeze, it feels so nice.

Taking a deep breath, I stood up allowing my legs to stretch for a bit.

"Such a nice night," I whispered to myself before arching my back, allowing me to let out a few satisfying pops. Groaning in satisfaction, I looked down at Ōkami with a smile, which quickly turned to confusion as I noticed him seemingly baring his teeth.

"Ōkami…?" My eyes widened as he ran off, not even paying attention to me. Without much of a thought, I glanced at Esdeath and ran off to chase him. She followed behind me, making sure to control the speed at which she runs. My END is halved, which means I can only keep my sprint for a few seconds.

My eyes narrowed as we passed by several buildings and Ōkami had begun a full-on sprint on a certain building, Anna's tavern. Seemingly not caring at all, Ōkami jumped through a window, smashing the glass into pieces.

"What the-AAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" A man screamed in pain, likely due to Ōkami. "Esdeath!" My blue-haired bodyguard responded quickly as she drew her sword before kicking the door open, smashing it to pieces.

Panting slightly, I slowly jogged to catch up. What greeted me made my eyes widen. Ōkami is baring his fangs caked in blood, snarling against a few men, a downed man with a pool of blood seeping through his neck that has a noticeable bite mark, a man with a knife stabbed through his neck, and Grace protectively hugging a weeping Anna with streams of tears running down her violet eyes.

The men in front of me visibly tensed up, likely recognizing Esdeath and perhaps even me. Wiping some sweat off of my cheek, I already felt excitement run through my body. I mentally hid a grin with a grimace.

So, what if there's a dead body that is probably Anna's husband? That's good news for me!

Coldly staring at the eleven remaining mercenaries that are likely Morgan's men. I glanced at the dead body with a knife lodged in his throat, before faking my anger. "Keep a few of them alive for questioning. Show no mercy to the rest."

I can't see it, but I can feel Esdeath smile in joy at my order.

"Gladly, my lord!"

She lunged at the first mercenary, slashing him across the eyes, causing him to scream in pain as he kneels over, Esdeath's smile widened as she kicked the kneeling man, a sick crack was heard as he fell, unmoving. "You bitch!" One of them roared as he raised his axe in an overhead swing, intending to bury his axe in her skull.

Easily dodging the swing, she formed a spike made out of ice before stabbing it through his neck. Making him gurgle as he held his neck as if doing so will stop the blood from gushing out.

All of that happened in less than 5 seconds.

"Get the shit behind her!" One of them had more sense than the others as he rushed towards me with a sword ready to pierce me. But before he could, the air around us grew cold before a whip made of ice wrapped around his neck, choking him.

Esdeath's slasher smile emerged as she roughly pulled the whip, causing him to lurch back as the ice-cold whip digs into his flesh. He struggles to try to pull it away from his flesh, this only served to amuse Esdeath before she tightened her hold on the whip, causing the whip to glow for a brief moment before gaining spikes that pierced the struggling mercenary's neck, killing him.

'Eight left.' The one close to Ōkami got jumped by my wolf the moment he turned his back, allowing Ōkami to dig his teeth into the man's nape, causing him to struggle and scream in pain before ultimately dying a few seconds later. 'Make that seven.'

"Dammit! Come on! We only need to get rid of her!" The others charged towards her. Normally, others would be worried since they are all rushing towards her. But this is Esdeath, I don't need to use [Observe] to check on their levels to know that she is more than enough to deal with the rest of them.

She let out a smile that is part excited, part sexy, and a whole lot of scary. Rushing towards the nearest mercenary, she dodged a swing of a sword before punching him straight to the jaw, knocking him out. She jumped a few steps before spinning her sword into a reverse grip and stabbing the stomach of the one mercenary behind her.

Not letting her momentum go to waste, she spun around, bisecting the mercenary and causing his blood to spray out of his body and into a mercenary's eyes. He cursed as he stumbled back, and by instinct, began to rub the blood off of his eyes, trying to get rid of it.

"Watch out!" The moment he finally regained his sense of sight, he was too late. The last thing he saw was a sharpened blade stained with blood going down on his neck with the intent to behead him. "Shit! This is your stupid idea, Bertrand!" One of them roared before flinching as he blocked a swing from Esdeath.

A bald man gritted his teeth as he glared at me. In response, I gave him a disarming smile just to fuck with him. This obviously pissed him off as he raised his axe. "Fuck you!" He roared as he threw his axe.

Keeping my smirk, I took a few steps to the side, allowing the axe to fly past me before a sudden thud was heard. Glancing to the side, I rolled my eyes as I took note of the axe stuck to the wall. 'That was easy to dodge. Then again, I have a decent amount of dexterity.' I hummed as Esdeath frowned.

'Well…guess I know which one is getting special treatment later…' I feel a little sorry for him. But it's his fault for going after me.

'Ah, there he goes…' I thought to myself as Esdeath froze the man's entire body, leaving only his head. The last three of the mercenaries shook in fear before Esdeath raised her sword and in a split second, did a wide slash. A brief moment passed before they all fell, dead. She sighed as she swiped her sword to the side, removing the blood from her blade and sheathing the sword to her hip.

Looking around me, I frowned. The tavern is now a mess with some tables tossed around, some chairs are broken, a few broken bottles littered the floor, and then there are the obvious dead bodies and blood around the room.

Walking towards the two elves. I kneeled, frowning as I noticed that Anna's eyes were closed, out cold. Turning my attention towards Grace, I gently held her by the chin to look at me. Her eyes were streaming with tears but I noticed that there is a light in them. "Thank you…" She called out to me before falling unconscious.

My smirk widened as I mentally added two points to END, one in LUK, and the last two went to my CHA. Looking down at the two elves. I grinned, noticing how Anna's top seems to have been pulled apart, exposing her tits, and by everything that is fucking huge. Not overly big, but big enough to cause men to stare. I am tempted to squeeze them, but I know that there is a time and place for everything, and now is not one of them.

I sighed as I gave Ōkami a headpat. "Come on, we need to get these two back in the castle." I turned and narrowed my eyes as a crowd of villagers appeared, all in various states of shock. Among them, I recognize a man with a thick beard, Goose.

"What are you doing? Get the guards!" Some of them left to get the guards, with Goose being the first to go. Turning towards Esdeath, I made a motion with my head to cover Anna and Grace. This is not a show, and I will not let other men look at their bodies.

It took a few minutes for some of the guards to reach the scene. And by then, I have a few suspicions. Why were there no guards around the area? There are guards, but the area around Anna's tavern has no guards.

'Well, no use thinking over it now. If anything, I should be thanking them. They turned Anna into a widow, doing my work for me. How thoughtful.' I hid a smirk as a guard ties up the one mercenary Esdeath knocked out.

"Bring these two to the castle dungeons." I pointed a thumb to the bald mercenary now free from the ice and is instead held down by a pair of guards before being tied up. Looking at Ian's dead body, I frowned. "Have the local priest prepare this man's burial rights." The guards saluted before carrying out my orders.

"Ah," Turning to my side, I raised a brow as Grace woke up. She seemed to look around in confusion before her eyes widened as she saw Ian's dead body slowly being carried away. Remembering the recent events, she turned to the unconscious elf beside her with a blanket covering her top. Her lips quivered as she held her hands over to her eyes. "Oh, Anna…what am I going to tell her?"

Sighing to myself, I kneeled towards her and held her shoulder. She visibly tensed up before relaxing as she saw me. "I'm sorry, Grace. I should have arrived earlier." I can already hear Esdeath scoff, she knows that I am lusting not only after Grace but Anna as well. With Anna's husband dead, there is no obstacle.

"Come, I will have the maids prepare a room for you and Anna. Esdeath!"

"Yes!" Immediately knowing what to do, she went to Anna's side before lifting her to a bridal carry. "Take my hand, Grace. This time, I will not let anything happen to the both of you." She looked up at me, tears still fresh from her eyes. She wipes them off before taking my hand.

Standing up, I gently pulled her up, I noticed a faintly red blush on her cheeks. Cute. "Come, the guards will take care of everything here. For now, you and Anna need to rest." She nodded as she followed me, her grip on my hand tightening.

"Ōkami!"

Bark!

He barked happily as he quickly went beside me. I smiled down at him before turning my attention towards the castle.

[Affection for Grace Campbell unlocked!]

[+20 Affection with Grace Campbell!]

[Grace Campbell – 20/100 Affection]

Passing by the crowd of villagers, the grin I had due to everything unexpectedly going in my favor could rival the grinch. 'My LUK is high.' I joked to myself before glancing to my side, Esdeath was looking at me with a wide smirk, in response, I grinned. I can feel Grace shiver due to the cold winds.

'Oh, don't worry, Grace. You will never feel cold ever again.' I feel my grin turning into a lecherous one as I imagined Grace servicing me in full, especially in private. My pants felt tight and my cock began to harden the moment I began to think of it. Something I am sure Esdeath noticed if her licking her lips hungrily was any indication.

Oh boy…I may not be getting any sleep tonight…not that I need to, but still, sleep is nice.

'Well then,' Glancing at Anna, I frowned. 'Let's see how the upcoming days will come…'

3 days later

For the past few days, nothing much really happened aside from Anna grieving with Grace. Ian has been buried at the cemetery near the local church. While I would like to make a move on Anna now, I decided to give her some space alongside Grace. I gave her some time off before she officially starts working as my maid, from which I got 10 Affection.

[Grace Campbell – 30/100 Affection]

Esdeath has been doing her own thing, torturing the two men who unfortunately got the shorter end of the stick. Honestly, it would have been better if they had died, but no, they got incapacitated. I shudder when I remember overhearing some guards talking about Esdeath forming a cage of ice and freezing one of the mercenary's balls, allowing it to frostbite.

'Well, at least I did a few things to keep me busy.' I thought to myself as my mind wandered to the day I went and did all the necessary things for Ian's burial rights, even going as far as attending the funeral myself. On that day, I maxed out Anna's Reputation with me.

Which gave me this:

[Condition to advance to the next stage [Affection] – Comfort Anna]

'Comforting her can come up in different ways. I can do so as a friend…or I can comfort her sexually, directly, or indirectly…' My lips formed a lecherous smile as a simple but efficient plan came out to me.

Alcohol with aphrodisiacs.

I can buy the aphrodisiac from the shop; the alcohol can be anything. I can give it to Grace so that they can share it, then some good old lesbian action will happen, and what better way to get a sample of vanilla and chocolate than to do both at once?

I can already imagine it, their luscious bodies pressed against each other, the gleam of sweat around their bodies the longer they go on, their moans becoming the room's very own melody. "This is getting me hard," I said to myself as I leaned back on my chair.

Knock knock!

Blinking, I straightened myself as I turned towards the door. "Enter." The door opened and a pair of women came in. A knight and a maid. The knight is wearing the usual "armor" for the Knights of Iris. I say armor, but it just covers her nipples and her slit. But then again, hentai world.

The knight has long light brown hair reaching up to her hips, hazel eyes, and quite a curvy figure. Not comparable to Anna or Grace's figure, but if she were in the real world, she would definitely have the right curves. "Good day, my lord. I come bearing a message from Lady Prim." Standing up, I watched as the maid took the offered envelope before walking over to me and giving it to me. Nodding in thanks, I took the envelope and raised a brow as I got a whiff of vanilla. The waxed seal is still there, which is good.

Opening the envelope, I read its contents.

"Dear Abhainn, I am currently in Feoh with Alicia, and by the time you receive this letter, I am on my way to Ken for Lady Celestine's party. The party will be a week from now. I look forward to meeting you again!

-Your princess, Prim."

I chuckled, seeing the pink kiss mark. 'She's really looking forward to it.'

"My father is on leave, and it will take a few days' worth to reach Ken." I muttered before looking at the knight. "You have my thanks. The maids will have a guest room ready for you. The journey you took travelling here must be tiring. Rest, you have earned it." The knight's cheeks gained a small tint of red before accepting my offer. "Take her to one of the guest rooms." The maid bowed before leading the knight away, leaving me on my own.

Looking at the letter, I smirked as I read the bottom.

"I have prepared myself for you to take however you wish. Prim you naughty little princess."

Thanks for reading, the music Abhainn played in this chapter is from LOTR, The Sounds of the Shire. I may be repeating it, but thank you demonoid217 and Old Man of the Mountain for beta reading for me. Without them, writing wouldn't be as fun and I can do things quicker!

The next chapter might come a bit slower…mostly because another gamer idea came up on my head…this time it's a Fire Emblem Blazing Sword one…and as usual, there will be a harem…yeah, the idea train is not stopping…I might work on it but not publish it yet due to obvious reasons…

Before I forget, the one song Abhainn played during his time with Chloe is Fíonnula's Tale.

Demonoid: you've gotta stop smirking man. I know you've got every reason to be happy, but damn, keep the horny at bay for a bit longer. Also, Quick question. Since you do no damage, how exactly are you causing pain for Chloe when spanking her ass?

Lucky: It just does. There's a difference between doing damage and causing pain. Hell, even a light spank will sting a bit. Have you tried getting your balls slapped lightly? Yeah, it's kinda like that.

Once again, thanks to demonoid217 and Old Man of the Mountain for beta'ing for me. If you guys want to chat with me go to the discord, here's the link.

discord .gg/wd3tUYWVCd

I am online every day, so if you want to chat around, I'm fine with it. My channel is easily recognizable, you won't miss it, especially since my name is the first word in the channel's name. The discord is a ton of fun, full of authors, aspiring authors, degenerates, gamers, and most importantly, hentai.

On an unrelated note, big shout out to demonoid217, he has written and published his first story last month. The story is a crossover between Fire Emblem 3 Houses fic and Titanfall…madlad's first chapter is 22k words and the second is 15k…the name of his fic is "When Gods walk among Titans", send him some love, tell him I sent ya if you wish. The guy deserves it for his hard work.

Old Man of the Mountain: Hi Everyone, my name is Darklord331 and its a pleasure for me to be here betaing Lucky's story. Me, Demonoid and Lucky have been putting our brains together for the story and this is the result. I gave Lucky the story idea of how Chloe would meet the MC, a scene similar to a legend of Zelda where a person plays his flute while animals surround him. That's all I have to say for now, thank you for enjoying reading Lucky's story and I will see you next time.

Anyway, I will see you guys again in the next chapter, which will probably be next month since I have exams next week…

Ciao! Peace!
