Sex with Rohan that lasted until the late hours of dawn
"Haa...♡ Haa...♡ Ah~ feels good♡"
Sticking our bodies together and moving freely, I felt all the built-up stress melt away.
'Yeah, thanks to that my head feels clear!'
It's not like my body was wholesome to begin with—how could abstaining from sex suddenly make a wholesome spirit reside in me?
Trying to restrain myself from the sex I'd been having at least every other day for the sake of contemplation had actually backfired.
'Right. I've always done it, so it shouldn't be hard. Let's just do that. And if it doesn't work out... well, I'll worry about it then.'
Having settled in an instant what I'd been agonizing over for days after finishing sex, I looked up at Rohan, who was holding me in his arms so I wouldn't be uncomfortable lying on top of him, and whispered.
"Thank you, Rohan"
"Huh?"
"Thanks to you, I've decided what to do from now on"
"Yes. Honestly, I'm not sure what that is, but I'm glad I could help"
"Yeah. Our head guard is so good at this♡ Mwah♡"
If he had any feelings for me, he'd undoubtedly be curious about what I'd been worrying over, but rather than probing about my concerns, Rohan seemed perfectly satisfied just knowing he'd helped resolve them, smiling warmly.
Quite liking this distance between us, I gave his lips one last kiss before heading home first.

Early dawn
Returning to the empty house since Leira had finished work and been charmed by a customer into going for an After and staying out, I shouted up at the sky.
"Hey Goddess-nim! Are you watching?"
- ...
The Goddess, who was obviously spying on me, didn't answer my call at all.
"Not answering, huh? Fine! Just listen! From now on, I'm going to..."
- !?
Not hearing the Goddess's reply, I explained my pre-planned scheme—something so embarrassing it's hardly even a plan—to the Goddess who might be listening, then distributed the semen I'd just received from Rohan into appropriate stats.
'Do I sense a bit of surprise?'
I had the illusion of sensing the Goddess's startled reaction to my plan, but since it was likely just my imagination, I decided not to dwell on it. After showering with warm water, I lay in bed in the world's most comfortable position and shouted to the Goddess once more.
"Yeah. Let's see who wins—you or me, omniscient Goddess-nim!"
After that, I implemented my plan conceived during post-coital sage time—'Sleep soundly when sleepy'—as part of my grand strategy 'Live without ever clearing the game.'
*
After that, peaceful days followed, making me regret all the time I'd spent worrying.
.

"Shephy? I'm planning to stay out again tonight..."
"Again? Who is it this time?"
"Huh? W-well..."
"Never mind. I'll just take a look. Let's see... today's customer is... huh? Seriously?"
"D-don't look!"
"Gilbert?... That's the slave trader Gilbert, right? No wonder he hasn't been calling me lately—he's been calling you, Leira? Do you like him enough to want to go to his place?"
"Uuuu... I-it's not like that... It's just that he's good at sex..."
"Slave Play. You want to do it, don't you?"
"!?...Uuuu..."
Watching Leira blush crimson and bow her head in embarrassment, I recalled having sex with Gilbert.
As a slave trader, under the pretense of checking the condition of slaves, he'd held countless women, and his techniques were on par with those of host male prostitutes who rely solely on sex. I particularly remember enjoying the sex play where I'd follow him to his mansion in the slums for an After and become his slave.
"Hmm~"
If I followed and asked to be made his slave tonight too, Gilbert would welcome me with open arms.
'But somehow...'
This situation felt like a divine revelation urging me to follow Leira to the slums.
"Well, he is good. Have fun~ Tell him to call me sometime too"
I decided not to follow Leira.
"Huh? You're not coming?"
"Why would I? I'm on duty now, and I have a reservation today. Have fun~ Take care of yourself... Actually, I'll have a guard accompany you."
"Okay! Thanks~ I'll be back! Hehe♡"
I deliberately avoided what would normally be a perfect opportunity to follow Leira on a slum outing, a situation where Choice Options wouldn't even appear.
- ...(Grit!)

"Madam? I have a request..."
"Michelle? Ah~ Is it already that time?"
"...Yes♡"
Michelle, a noble-born lady, had introduced connections with merchant groups and noble customers since joining the brothel as a prostitute, and in addition to handling accounting and manners training for the prostitutes, she had one demand as compensation every quarter until the day she left the brothel.
"M-Ma-madam? I-I found out something this time... Th-the water in the southern lake has all d-drained, so s-snails and tentacles and slimes and! Th-those s-s-s-slimy m-m-monsters are appearing in m-mass quantities♡... Hehe♡ Hehehe♡ Hehehehehehe♡"
It was escorting her during interspecies encounters with monsters and, if it was alright, joining in the fun myself.
"Michelle, really~ You're too excited, aren't you?"
"Ah! S-sorry♡ Hahaha..."
Michelle, who usually seems impossibly pure for a prostitute, becomes so excited when it comes to interspecies encounters with monsters that she can't even speak properly, making her one of the brothel's top-tier perverted whores.
"Hmm~ That sounds good too"
The information Michelle brought—the massive emergence of slimy monsters in the southern lake that drive women mad with pleasure, a once-in-a-decade event—seemed tailor-made for her, but...
"I have a prior engagement♡ Sorry, but want to come along? It's a business trip request♡"
"This is...!? C-can I r-really come along?"
"Of course. Actually, I already talked to him about it♡ I said I'd bring another girl along each time from now on, like last time."
"Th-th-th-then... Th-thank youuu♡ I'll g-go then♡ Heheh♡ Heheheh♡"
"Michelle, are you that happy?"
"I-it was my l-lifelong dream♡ Aah♡ O-o-o, Orc Husband-nim♡"
"I held back for the sake of our girls, but maybe I shouldn't have♡ Shall we go right away?"
"Yes♡"
So, due to the massive emergence of slimy monsters at the southern lake—monsters that spew pleasure-inducing slime only affecting women, making them quite useful—everyone headed to the southern lake, leaving the guild house deserted. Michelle and I casually went up to the second floor.
And...
Tsubuubuub!- Puuk!- Pak!-
"Oooook♡ Ogooooooogogogogok♡♡♡♡ Husband-niiiiim♡ Give it to meeee♡ Uhoook♡ Ohheuk♡ Hogogogogogogok♡♡♡♡"
"Keuk! I'm! Kup! Not! Kueuk! Michelle-yang's! Heup! Husband-nim!"
"Hegiiiiik♡ Don't knoooow♡ Michelle is a stupid bitch♡ Othook♡ Don't knoooow♡ Hekak♡ Hegyaaaaak♡ Give it give it give it give it my pussy's gonna tearrrrr♡♡♡♡♡"
"I should've brought you sooner if I knew it'd be like this♡ Michelle? Does it feel that good?"
"Ohhiik♡♡♡ Hagyagyagyagyak♡ Hegigigigik♡ Hot♡ Hoohot♡ Oggogogogogok♡"
"Guess she can't hear♡ Huhut♡"
A great~ experience♡ to make up for Michelle missing out on slippery tentacle interspecies because of me.
I let her taste the incredibly violent cock of guildmaster Uk-nim, who's more orc-like than any orc.
"Noona, Michelle-yang seems to have fainted. I healed her with an Elixir"
"Already? Thanks, Uk. Ah, you used your own Elixir? You didn't... have... to...♡"
Gguk-
Gguk-
Apparently not nearly satisfied from just tasting Michelle's pussy, Uk, who hadn't even cum yet, pressed his cock, soaked with Michelle's love juices, against my cheeks over and over.
"Sorry♡ But I had no choice, you could say? Anyway... mwah♡"
"Keuk!"
Byurut! Byut! Byurururut! Byubyut!
The poor semen that couldn't enter Michelle's pussy covered my face like cream sauce sprayed on noodles.
"Haub♡ Chuub♡ I'll do everything~ you want today♡ How about it? Hmm?"
"Then... call me Husband-nim"
"Huh?"
"Call me Husband-nim, Noona"
"Huhut♡ Men are all the same♡ Okay, Husband-nim♡ Ah♡ Suddenly like that♡ Ahyuk♡ Aheueueuk♡ Ohok♡"
Like that, I enjoyed playing Husband-nim with Uk using the same loose mouth that had called another man Husband-nim not long ago.
"Me too♡ Make me your concubine toooo♡ Ahng♡"
It was a bonus that Michelle, who'd woken up thanks to the Elixir, was knocked out again.
- (Shiver shiver...)

Avoiding all things that clearly seemed like the Goddess's meddling, three months passed before I knew it, turning from the hot summer sun to the autumn leaves...
- Hey you fucking bitchhhhh~~~!!!
Early morning, while roasting sweet potatoes in the pile of leaves the guards had gathered in the brothel's backyard, I looked up at the sky and answered the familiar voice cursing me from somewhere in my head.
"Yum yum. Oh, welcome, Goddess-nim. Yum yum, want a sweet potato?"
"How can you eat that shit right now!!!"
The world turned monochrome and froze, just like when I first met her before summer, and finally, that being, the Goddess, appeared before me again.
"Let's talk!"
"Hmm~? That's bothersome~"
"Ah, let's just talk!"
Watching the omniscient creator of all things in the Atroxia Continent, the Goddess, anxiously begging a mere prostitute for conversation, I realized my three months of effort... no, my negligence, was absolutely not wrong.
"Seeing you like that... I guess there's a reason I have to progress the story?"
"Eut!?...Shephy, you...!"
My self-esteem had nearly hit rock bottom and plunged underground due to the Goddess's schemes, but now I knew.
"Alright, let's talk then. Let's talk."
I am absolutely not the Goddess's puppet.
Perhaps I'm an existence far more important than any Hero or Saintess...
"First of all... am I a goddess too?"
"!?"
Maybe I'm an even more incredible existence than I thought.
