Chapter Title: Building Memories with Her (2)

"It's okay. Big sis will take it all."
The moment she smiled so kindly, something snapped inside my head.
Squeeze...! I gripped one breast tight—it was too big for one hand.
The areola and nipple slipped out between my fingers.
Slurrrp!! I sucked on it so hard my cheeks hollowed out.
"Eek..! They won't go anywhere, so be gentle..."
Sera spoke in a soothing tone like she was calming a child, but it was way too late to hold back now.
I kneaded her breast like I was milking it and latched on with every intention of draining every last drop of milk.
This body is mine. My own personal milk bags!
Grind grind grind. My hips moved on their own, rubbing my dick against Sera's hand.
As if sensing my desire, she moved her hand to match my rhythm.
Still clumsy, sure, but it was a full-on handjob.
Maybe that's why it felt even hotter—the awkwardness of it.
The thrill of taming a female clueless about sex sent my arousal skyrocketing.
"Kyahaak..!"
Splurt... spluuurt...
In the end, I let out an ugly groan and came right in her hand.
It was the first time in this life I'd climaxed with a female.
Embarrassingly enough, it took less than three minutes.
Once I finished, all the strength drained from my body, and I let go of her breast.
"So this is semen..."
Sera stared blankly at the load in her hand and murmured.
For how vigorously I'd blown it, the amount was ridiculously small. Maybe a third of what an adult human male would produce.
It was already thinning out to near-transparent, and it hadn't even been long since I came.
And yet, she brought it to her nose.
Sniff sniff. Her nostrils twitched twice.
"Ugh, it stinks..."
Sera wrinkled her brow and muttered under her breath.
It wasn't meant for me to hear, but my heart still dropped.
Hitting me right in the post-nut sage mode, waves of self-loathing crashed over me.
No matter how hard I scrubbed, I could never wash away that signature goblin stench.
Even I got annoyed by it sometimes—god knows how she felt. She had to be disappointed.
"Keruk."
I handed her the pink handkerchief.
It had some of my blood on it from earlier when I wiped the floor, but it was the best I had on hand.
"Thanks."
Wipe wipe. She took the handkerchief and cleaned the semen off her hand with the clean side.
Now one side had blood, the other semen.
"Sniff sniff. It's wiped off, but the smell lingers. And—"
Sera flexed the hand that had the semen on it, opening and closing it repeatedly.
"It still feels sticky. Guess I'll wash up when I get back."
Sera slipped her top back on and wrapped herself in her robe.
She even pocketed the dirty handkerchief before standing up.
She was just gonna leave like this? I figured I should at least see her off, so I tried to stand.
But even bracing against the floor, my legs wouldn't cooperate.
Pathetic— all the strength had drained out of them.
"I'll head out for today. See you tomorrow."
Sera left without waiting for an escort.
『Sera's Perspective』
Sera returned home and wrote in her diary.
[...I took off my robe to gauge Gob's reaction, but he couldn't tear his eyes away from my breasts. It was cute.]
Her lesbian friend had been right. Gob loved breasts. A lot.
[I could've healed his finger with a prayer, but I pulled out the handkerchief on purpose. Just to hold his hand.]
Sera paused there and picked up the handkerchief on her desk.
One side had Gob's blood, the other his semen.
Sniff sniff. For no real reason, she sniffed the semen-stained side.
'It's definitely not a good smell, but... I keep wanting to sniff it.'
She couldn't explain the strange addictiveness.
Sera set the handkerchief down and finished her diary entry.
[Somehow got swept up in the mood and ended up doing naughty stuff.]
[Didn't know what to do, so I bolted.]
[What happens starting tomorrow? Are we lovers now?]
[But I swore my body to the Goddess. I have to stay pure.]
[Plus, Gob's a monster. If I date a monster, people will—]
Sera stopped mid-sentence and set her pen down.
"Ah— I really don't know..."
She cradled her head and slumped over her desk.
...
Putting her tangled thoughts aside, Sera headed to the kitchen.
She stuffed every eye-catching item into a bundle.
Cookware, plates, spice jars, and more.
"What're you doing?"
Lucy had shown up at some point and spoke up.
"It's a secret."
Sera answered without turning around and kept packing things into the bundle.
The hefty bundle was already half full.
"You planning to go somewhere?"
"Uhmm... who knows."
She absolutely couldn't reveal her secret about Gob, so her answer stayed vague.
"Can't let you out tomorrow."
"Why?"
"Purification time."
"Ah, right..."
The time for purification had come around already.
She hadn't given it a thought.
She'd planned to visit Gob with the bundle tomorrow...
"Could we maybe postpone..."
The moment Sera said that, the air around them chilled instantly.
Lucy's eyes had gone cold.
"No? Of course we have to. No, we absolutely must."
The chilly air returned to normal.
In truth, Sera had only floated the idea—she knew full well how necessary purification was.
She'd nearly died once before for ignoring Lucy's warning.
'By the time purification's done, it'll be dark... so two days from now?'
『Gob's Perspective』
Scrape—scrape—
I sharpened my knife on the whetstone.
Sharpening knives I didn't even plan to use—it was my habit when my mind was racing.
'Not coming today?'
I clearly remembered Sera saying, "See you tomorrow."
But the sun was nearly set, and she still hadn't shown.
Just polite talk? Not coming anymore?
I'd even caught fish for her today. The knives for cooking were sharpened hours ago.
Then again, why would a green dwarf monster deserve visits? Unless to kill me...
But what about yesterday? Showing her breasts unasked, letting me grope, even the handjob.
Thinking rationally, no normal person would feel lust for a goblin.
I sure never felt any for female goblins, swear to god.
Still, calling yesterday a dream? It was too vivid, too ecstatic.
Is that what motherhood would look like sculpted into a human?
Scrape—scrape—I sharpened the knife.
If I could taste that body again, I bet I could kill with this knife.
But she didn't come, and darkness slowly blanketed the sky.
Grrrowl. I'd skipped lunch waiting, and now my stomach complained. Should I eat something?
No appetite. Better just sleep.
I set the knife down and crawled into bed.
Lay down to sleep, but sleep wouldn't come.
Sera's image kept floating in my mind.
That playful smile drawing near without distance.
That benevolent smile forgiving anything.
I shook my head to shake it off, but it clung tight.
Lovesick goblin? Crazy. We'd met less than a week ago.
I hated myself for still secretly hoping she'd knock even now.
Even knowing it wouldn't happen—
Knock knock.
A knock. Goosebumps prickled all over.
"Gob~ I'm here~! Open up quick~!"
Sera's voice.
I bolted out like popcorn popping.
Flung the door wide open, and there she stood with a massive bundle strapped on.
"Huh, you opened right away today?"
Seeing that innocent smile, I nearly teared up.
If I could talk, I'd gripe about how late she was. Not the right moment, though.
Thud. She stepped inside and immediately dropped the bundle.
"Keruk?"
I pointed at it and growled questioningly.
"Gifts for you. Wanna open it?"
More gifts? Fruit yesterday, now what?
I unwrapped it like a kid tearing into birthday presents.
Whoa, what's all this? Cutting boards, frying pans, kitchen knives.
A bunch of jars like pepper shakers—definitely spices.
Plates, forks, knives—every kind of utensil imaginable.
"Like it?"
"Keruk!"
I jumped in place to show max joy.
Days of using scavenged or stolen tools.
Craftsmen don't blame tools, but mine were so bad I had to.
Few types of spices, coarsely chopped.
Fine powder like this? Amazing!
"Hehet. Glad you like it."
She smiled proudly.
Thrilled, but... did she overdo it? Could an herb gatherer afford this?
"Keruk keruk."
I pointed at the bundle, then made a circle with thumb and forefinger.
Roughly: how much? Okay to give me?
"Worried about money? Don't be. I'm loaded."
No clue how loaded, but definitely not light.
Heavy as hell. Couldn't even dream of lifting that bundle. How'd she carry it here?
"I said I'd buy whatever you need."
Seeing me still uneasy, she added it to reassure me.
Thanks, but still burdensome.
How to repay?
Grrrowl.
A stomach growl somewhere.
Thought it was mine at first—no hunger pang.
Then...?
"Hehe... came without dinner..."
Sera's awkward smile. Even that's cute.
Wanna repay debt somehow, but money's impossible.
Do what I can do best.
...
Tonight's dinner: grilled fish.
Used the gifted spices on pre-prepped fish.
New tools made it a breeze.
"Smells delicious just sniffing it?"
Sera, watching the process, reacted to the aroma.
Smell passes, at least. Now for taste.
Crisp. Prodded the fish—exterior nice and crispy.
Golden hue, slits showed perfectly cooked white flesh.
About time—plated the fish.
Sizzle. Residual heat made the oils pop.
Sat across from her, plate between us.
She closed her eyes tight before the food.
"Today, too, You provide our daily bread—thank You for Your grace, Goddess."
She murmured the prayer in a whisper.
Body way too lewd for a priestess, but seemed devout.
"Let's eat~."
Sera forked off some flesh and popped it straight in.
"It's delicious!"
Her eyes sparkled. Phew, she likes it.
I'd skipped lunch too, but watching her devour it killed my hunger.
"Hek, it's tasty, but kinda spicy."
Too salty? Went Korean-style and overdid the heat.
But her fork didn't stop.
Poke, eat, poke, eat. Panting hard, but chowing down.
"This is seriously good. How are you this good at cooking?"
"Keke."
I scratched my cheek, grinning sheepishly.
Feels like overpraise, but damn nice.
Past life, had nothing else, but cooking brought joy to others.
Clung to it desperately—now paying off as goblin too.
Good call learning to cook.
...
After the meal.
"Thanks for the great meal."
-Nod.
Nodded, but compared to what she gave me, it was peanuts.
"Um... it's getting kinda late to head home..."
Sera broached it casually.
Awoooo—right on cue, a wolf howled in the distance. Perfect timing.
"Mind if I crash here?"
-Nod.
Sleeping with her in this tiny hut? Quest window guaranteed.
But no way was I sending Sera out alone into the night.
