Chapter 274: The Beast of Betrayal
Chapter 274: The Beast of Betrayal
“Male! Female! Mating!”
I’m going to lose my mind.
I never thought I’d hear those words again.
But what was even more mind-boggling was her attitude—the idea of just committing the act in secret first and asking Helena for forgiveness later.
“Is that really okay? An Apostle is an avatar of a god… to a human, they’re basically like a child, aren’t they?!”
“It’s not a matter of whether it’s ‘okay’ or not; there’s simply no other way. And just because Helena is the child closest to me doesn’t mean we can’t mate.”
Righteous Light blinked her golden eyes, claiming that she, at least, had never preached such a doctrine or forbidden it.
“But for a god to… you know, with a human… don’t you feel any sense of revulsion or…?”
“Revulsion? Hmm. Of course, I can’t let the other believers know about this… but I don’t really dislike the idea. In fact, I quite like it. No, I feel like it has to be you, Yandel.”
She placed a hand over her chest and tilted her head side to side. Every time she did, her ears twitched in a way that was actually quite cute.
This was a development I truly hadn't anticipated. Is this… really right?
I knew her way of thinking would be different from a human’s since she’s an ancient deity, but still, is this really okay?
While I was lost in thought, half-dazed, she must have taken my lukewarm reaction as a rejection.
Righteous Light’s ears and tail drooped, and her voice turned somber.
“Do you dislike me that much…? But if we don’t do this, there really is no other way….”
“No, it’s not that I dislike you. I was just surprised. There’s no precedent for this.”
While there were many people who carried the blood of dragons, there had never been a single person in history recorded as carrying the blood of a god.
To be more precise, should I say that anyone who claimed to usually got struck down by divine punishment?
Perhaps because it was a world where gods actually existed, people tended not to invoke their names lightly.
However.
“Huh? There is a precedent, though?”
“There is?!”
Why would there be?!
“It’s true. Before Cyclic Life became a god, she had a husband she was married to, and even after becoming a god, they mated constantly. They didn't have any children, though. For the record, she grants her blessing to the talented descendants of the children she had before, turning them into High Elves.”
“So the reason High Elves are revered as the descendants of the Goddess is because they actually carry that blood?!”
I didn't expect to learn such major lore while being asked to mate!
“That’s right. And what about Free Breath? That one hides their identity and does it with their believers all the time.”
“I can understand why I wouldn't know if they hid their identity… wait a minute. Isn't Free Breath someone who transforms into various forms regardless of age or gender?”
“I’d say they have a very liberal view of romance.”
“…….”
To think that Free Breath—the one who grants various tricky authorities and is considered the hard counter to the Boiling Silence cult—had such a twisted sexual preference.
I really didn't want to know that.
Righteous Light waved her hand in front of my face as I stood there, frozen in shock. Then, as if realizing something, she clapped her hands loudly and shouted.
“Ah! Now I get it!”
A smirk pulled at the corners of her mouth as she leaned toward me.
She snatched my arm in an instant, pulled me close, and whispered into my ear as if sharing a secret.
“It’s because I’ve never done it before.”
“…Pardon?”
“I know that men like virgins. I’ve lived a long time, after all. That’s what’s bothering you, right?”
“Heeuh?”
“Don’t worry. Until now, I’ve never had the urge to mate, and I never had a partner to do it with anyway.”
Righteous Light licked up the shell of my ear with her tongue, as if getting a preliminary taste.
My body reacted instinctively to the soft, moist sensation traveling through my ear.
She giggled for a long while, seemingly enjoying my reaction, before suddenly throwing herself onto the bed.
Still holding onto my arm, of course.
Flump.
As I reached out my arms to keep from falling, I naturally ended up pinning Righteous Light beneath me.
She beamed up at me from under my weight.
“Well?”
“…Well, what?”
“Do you want to check for yourself? Whether I’m a virgin or not?”
It was a provocative tone.
But isn't it human nature to fall for a provocation even when you know it's one?
“You know this is a betrayal, right?”
“Yeah. I’ll explain it well to Helena….”
“No. If we’re going to do it, let’s do it together.”
“Huh?”
I placed my hand on Righteous Light’s face as she stared up with wide eyes and looked deep into them.
“From now on, we’re betraying her together. And we’ll beg for forgiveness together. How about that?”
“Krrr…”
Righteous Light let out an unidentifiable animalistic sound and turned red as I nodded to her.
“Good. Now we’re accomplices, Righteous Light—mmph?”
Chu.
She suddenly lifted her head and pressed her lips against mine.
Her soft lips were crushed roughly against mine, and a faint animal scent mixed into Helena’s familiar fragrance tickled my nose.
She seemed a bit rough, as if it really was her first time, and her tongue flickered uncertainly near my gums before pulling away.
“Phew!”
“U-Uh, um…?”
While I was flustered by the sudden kiss, Righteous Light explicitly licked her lips and added briefly:
“Solari.”
“Huh?”
“Righteous Light is certainly my divine name… but it’s too long. So for now, call me Solari. It’s the name given to me by the child who was my first priestess, before I became a god.”
That sounded like a very important name.
At least, it was a name I had never heard once while playing H&A. It probably meant she didn't tell just anyone.
I carefully spoke the ancient name of Righteous Light.
“…Solari?”
“Yes!”
“So that’s why the name of the Grand Temple was Solaris.”
“It’s where I live, and it’s also where the first Saintess is buried. …Anyway, we’ve spent too much time on useless talk. Since we’ve decided to do it, there’s no need to hesitate any longer, right?”
Solari smirked and instantly flipped our bodies. This time, it was my turn to be pinned underneath.
The supple curve of her waist. Her vertically slit pupils shimmering dangerously. And her roughened breath.
I flinched for a moment at the sheer, raw desire, but soon relaxed.
It’s not like she’s actually going to eat me, right?
…As if mocking that thought, Solari roughly tore my clothes off.
“I’ll enjoy the meal.”
Another kiss followed. But having done it once, she seemed to have gotten the hang of it, as the stiffness was mostly gone.
Instead, she licked with her tongue an unusual amount.
Slurp. Schlorp.
Solari, who had made a mess of my lips and the inside of my mouth with her saliva, slowly lowered her head.
Starting from my lips, she licked her way down the center of my body.
It was a clumsy sort of foreplay, as if she had seen it somewhere but never actually done it.
But was it because of the atmosphere? Or perhaps her beautiful appearance? That alone was enough to make me incredibly aroused.
Schlup. Chup. Chu.
Solari continued downward, mixing in kisses here and there. Her incessantly twitching ears looked strangely erotic.
Only after crossing my upper body and reaching my waist did Solari pull her tongue away from my skin.
Clink, clank.
She struggled for a moment, unable to get my belt off immediately, but after a few attempts, she managed to pull down both my pants and underwear, revealing my rock-hard cock in all its glory.
Boing.
“Grrr…”
With a dazed expression, she sniffed and brought her face close to my cock.
Every time the soft yet firm touch of her nose or her breath tickled the shaft, my cock would twitch.
Solari nodded with a satisfied smile at the sight.
“The preparations for mating are properly finished. Then, I’ll begin now.”
“What? This is the end of the preparations? What about you, Solari?”
“Hmm? Why me?”
In the meantime, Solari had cast off her clothes, and her naked body was laid bare before my eyes.
Naturally, it was basically Helena’s naked body. However, the twitching ears and the tail swaying behind her buttocks completely changed the impression.
There was a fresh beauty reminiscent of the beastkin… but right now, only one thing caught my eye: her pussy.
“What the….”
She had ended up like that just from a few kisses, licking a straight line from my mouth to my navel, and sniffing my cock.
Was this what she meant by preparations being finished once my thing was standing?
Just what part of that got her so excited? Even if she looked like a beastkin, she wasn't a real one, so she shouldn't have a heat cycle.
While I was inwardly dumbfounded, Solari sat up and half-straddled my cock.
The sensation of her soft pussy flesh against my glans.
In a position where she could insert it just by lowering her hips, Solari spoke with a slightly trembling voice.
“Haa… with this, I won’t be a virgin goddess anymore.”
“Uh, about that.”
I caught Solari just as she was about to push down and asked the question I’d been wondering about.
“Right now, you’re in Helena’s body, aren't you?”
“That’s right.”
“And Helena had sex with me a long time ago.”
“Yeah. I arranged the meeting, so of course I know.”
I remembered everything—the sensation of piercing Helena’s hymen and the single streak of blood that flowed between her thighs.
“Since you’re borrowing Helena’s body, won’t you be unable to prove you’re a virgin even if you put it in now?”
“Ah, it’s fine. I’ve connected only the pussy part to my main body. I told you, didn't I? It’s not Helena, but ‘me’ and you, Yandel, who have to be joined.”
“…Pardon?”
To my bewildered face, Solari declared boldly.
“If you don’t understand, just stay still. I’ll show you soon enough!”
Squish—squelch.
Her hips slowly lowered. Solari’s pussy enveloped my cock as if devouring it… and finally, just as it swallowed the glans entirely.
“Ka-reung…”
White, glowing Divine Blood flowed down my cock.
