New Companions, Part 4
"Shh."
Since it was late, only two goblins remained awake.
We were three weaponless women, and two of us were completely powerless civilians, so the bastards had let their guard down.
Honestly, it worked out in my favor. If there were only two, I could easily distract them.
Even if it's fucking repulsive.
Once I confirmed the other goblins were asleep, I wrapped myself in a tattered blanket and approached the two awake ones.
"Hey... since you're awake, want to slip away and have some fun...?"
Of course, if we made too much noise while fucking, the others would wake up and kill me, so I had to lure them to the outskirts of the camp.
I couldn't believe I was voluntarily spreading my legs and seducing goblins again, even if it was to save those women...
Please, let my pheromones work. Seduce them, hurry...
"Kihik..."
"Wait, it's no fun if the others wake up. Let's go somewhere quiet..."
I pointed toward the dark woods and let the blanket slip, exposing my breasts. Excited, the bastards grabbed my hands and dragged me into the forest.
I had already told the two women to run and not wait for me, so they should be fine.
The best-case scenario was never seeing them again. My job was to buy them enough time to escape. I had told them to scream if the goblins woke up and chased them.
Because I would come running to save them immediately.
"Mph..."
Their cocks still smelled like absolute shit, but maybe I was getting used to it, because it felt slightly more bearable than before.
"Ah... ♥"
One of them naturally kneaded my breasts, shoving a nipple into his mouth and sucking greedily.
Since I needed to wait for the perfect moment to kill them, I pushed one goblin down, climbed on top of him, and guided his cock to my pussy.
"How is it? Does it feel good?"
Now that we were far enough from their camp, I did my best to seduce them, thrusting my chest toward the other goblin.
"It's so good, ah... ♥"
I ground my hips, bounced my breasts, and worked my mouth.
My body would heal anyway. I could endure any amount of humiliation and disgust. I would fuck them as much as they wanted, and then I would slaughter them.
"Kihik...!"
"Ngh...!"
The goblin sucking my breast bit down hard, as if trying to brand me like a slave. I swallowed the pain and forced the brightest smile I could muster.
"More... do it more..."
Even to my own ears, my voice sounded strained through gritted teeth, but the mindless beast didn't seem to care.
Worried they might lose interest too quickly, I put my heart and soul into serving them, rolling my body to drag out the time as long as possible.
"Haah, ahh... ♥"
I claimed I was just buying time, but because I had used so much energy regenerating my shattered arm, a sudden wave of heat washed over me. I ended up squirming and climaxing repeatedly in a short span of time.
I couldn't tell if I was just getting used to being raped or if I was genuinely in heat, but it felt a lot better than when I was surrounded and gang-raped this morning...
What the fuck am I thinking? Snap out of it.
Shaking off the stray thoughts, I looked down at the goblin pinned beneath me with a smile.
The goblin sneered disgustingly, reaching up to squeeze one of my breasts, while the other one kept kneading the other side.
They really fucking love tits.
Slash!
Finally seeing my chance, I rubbed the ring I had moved to my right hand, summoned my sword, and sliced the throat of the goblin beside me without a moment's hesitation.
"Kihik...?!"
The goblin beneath me tried to scream.
I had anticipated that, which was why I only slit the other guy's throat instead of stabbing him, saving myself some time.
I plunged the blade straight down, killing the goblin beneath me, then turned and cleanly severed the dangling head of the first one to stop his annoying gurgling.
"Haah... ha..."
Dying right after fucking someone like me is a pretty good way to go, isn't it?
I lifted my hips, but I didn't even have time to wipe away the disgusting semen dripping down my thighs.
"Ptu."
I spat out the saliva and semen lingering in my mouth and rushed back toward the carriage.
Since there weren't many goblins left when we were dragged away, the scattered luggage should still be there—unless those two women had packed up properly.
"Hah... wheeze... huff..."
Even though I was far away, a sudden wave of anxiety hit me. I held my breath and scanned the carriage.
They were gone.
The only things left behind were some random junk and my bag.
Ah, fuck, that scared the shit out of me!!!
And the severed head of the man, looking deathly pale even under the faint moonlight.
Confirming that neither of their bags was anywhere near the carriage, I didn't even have time to put on clothes. I just wrapped a piece of cloth around myself and ran as fast as my legs could carry me.
Honestly, I was terrified.
Terrified that the goblins would catch up to me at any moment.
Terrified that I would run into something even worse wandering alone in the dead of night.
Terrified that letting myself get raped over and over by goblins might have actually been the safer choice.
My body was exhausted from the constant cycle of running and walking, but my legs refused to stop, driven by the fear of pursuing goblins or other dangerous monsters.
Why the fuck can't this useless regeneration ability cure exhaustion?
After running for what felt like hours, I finally spotted smoke and a stone wall in the distance.
"Ha... ahaha..."
At least before, I had Meria with me. Having run for hours in sheer terror all by myself, my legs nearly gave out the moment I saw safety.
If I had made it this far, it was a safe zone with no monsters.
I was practically naked, wrapped in nothing but a scrap of cloth, and thought about putting on some clothes. But first, I wanted to get to the village and rest even a second sooner, and second, my entire body was covered in sticky semen and dirt, and I didn't want to ruin my clean clothes.
"What in the world happened? Are you alright?!"
...Next time, even if my limbs get chopped off and sliced in half again, I am absolutely using teleportation.
With that final thought, I collapsed into a sleep that was closer to passing out.
"Ugh... mmph!"
My eyes fluttered open, and the sudden rush of tension snapped me wide awake. I bolted upright, nearly leaping out of the bed.
Looking around, it seemed to be a normal inn room. I let out a sigh of relief.
Did the guard from yesterday bring me here? Before I could even feel grateful, I noticed the ring was missing from my finger. I immediately began rummaging through my bag, which was sitting next to my sword.
The bag had been completely cleaned out, leaving nothing but my clothes.
"That son of a bitch..."
No, wait. I didn't know for sure yet.
Since I had been unconscious, it could have been the guard who took it, or maybe someone else who carried me along the way.
Fortunately, when I tested it before, the ring's recall function only worked for me.
To think he had even prepared for the possibility of losing the ring instead of the sword—that blacksmith was definitely no ordinary craftsman.
I quickly washed up, rushed out, and after asking around, I managed to locate the guard post.
"Yesterday? We don't usually give out this kind of information, but since you say you want to repay them for saving you... Hey, who was on guard duty last night?"
"Uh... let's see. It was Walter and Eradin."
"There you have it. But we can't just give you their home addresses... Tell you what, my lunch break is coming up soon, so I can go tell them for you. Will you wait here?"
Even during this brief exchange, I couldn't stand still, pacing back and forth while my legs trembled with anxiety.
"Thank... thank you. I'll wait."
"Alright then. Sel, sorry, but could you head over to Eradin's place?"
"Ughhhhh..."
"I'll give you an extra thirty minutes for lunch, so just go, you lazy bastard."
After dozens of minutes that felt like hours had passed—to the point where I had scratched deep nail marks into my own arms from sheer anxiety—the two off-duty guards finally returned.
Were they both in on it? Or were they both innocent? Had they handed me off to someone else in between?
"I'm glad to see you're feeling better. You collapsed in such a terrible state that we were worried a horde of monsters might be right behind you."
"Thank you so much for getting me to a safe place to sleep yesterday. By the way, did both of you carry me to the inn room?"
Straight to the point.
"Ah, only I did that. Since we're guards, it would have been bad if both of us left our posts."
The dark-haired man replied.
Honestly, paranoia was eating me alive, making every single thing about this dark-haired guy look incredibly suspicious, but I forced myself to hold back.
Ah, damn it, I'm so bad at this beating-around-the-bush shit.
"My coworker mentioned earlier that you wanted to repay us."
"Yes. You brought me all the way to the inn when I was unconscious, so I wanted to treat you to a meal at least."
"No, no, we actually came to decline. It's our job anyway. Besides, this is such a quiet town that it's been ages since we've done anything truly rewarding. It was a meaningful experience for us too."
The man beside the dark-haired guard nodded in agreement.
"If anything, we felt terrible leaving a lady at the inn in... that state."
Ah, fuck, this is bad.
And why the hell are they both acting so upright and diligent?
Are they really not the culprits?
Did those goblin bastards steal the money from my bag, and did the ring just slip off somewhere while I was being carried over?
"I'll walk you back to the inn. I quite enjoy taking walks, so please don't feel burdened."
I completely ignored the man walking beside me on the way back to the inn, my head feeling like it was about to explode as I racked my brain trying to figure out who the thief was.
"Ha... thank you."
"Is something troubling you?"
"Ah, well... I lost my ring. It's really important to me."
In truth, I hadn't lost my sword, only the ring that recalled it, but that ring had saved my life more than once.
Just yesterday when I slaughtered those goblins, for instance.
"By any chance, do you mean that red ring?"
"..."
"Haha, that's a bit harsh. Shouldn't you usually say 'thank you for finding it' first?"
Only if you actually had any intention of giving it back, you piece of shit.
I glared up at the guard with a cold, dead expression. In response, he casually wrapped his arm around my waist.
"It seems like a very important ring. And even putting that aside, you must be in quite a tight spot without a single coin to your name, right?"
"You motherfucker..."
"It's nothing too demanding. Just let me sleep with you once, and I'll return your ring and money exactly as they were. You get everything back, so you lose nothing. All you have to do is spread your legs once for the man who kindly brought you to safety when you were passed out. It's not a bad deal, is it?"
