Chapter Title: Big-Boobed Pixies #5
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Dealing with their constant whining was pretty exhausting, but I had to play this smart. It wasn't even that hard. I'd already gotten a rough feel for how to handle pixies.
"No, Serinyu. What the hell are you talking about? You're totally misunderstanding."
"What?! Why would I be misunderstanding?!"
She was shrieking like a banshee.
She really felt betrayed, deep down.
"You said there was no way. But there is. A way to befriend the dryads."
"Huh?"
"I just give you more of this, and you give it to the dryads."
"More of what?"
Serinyu froze like her brain had short-circuited.
She really was a total airhead.
"You take this from me and give it to the dryads, right? They might like you for it."
It wasn't a sure thing. But that was fine. I had excuses lined up. Even if the pixies couldn't tame the dryads with my white stuff, I could just blame it on individual dryad differences.
"Oh? Is that how it works? Hold on."
My words hit home again.
>—Swipe.
Serinyu dropped her guard and rubbed her chin and lips, deep in thought. She started mumbling to herself, piecing together our conversation step by step. It was like watching a con artist swindle kids.
I almost felt like the bad guy here.
"Wait. Let me talk to my friends first."
"Go ahead."
Serinyu bounced over to her companions, her massive tits jiggling with every step.
"Hey, is that really okay?"
"I... I don't know."
"Me neither."
"How do you not know?!"
"If even you don't know, Serinyu, how are we supposed to?!"
"Exactly..."
"Ugh! This is important! What am I supposed to do if you guys don't know?!"
"Sorry..."
"But this is our first time too..."
"Argh!"
Was this even a conversation?
It looked like a total communication breakdown. But listening in, they were calling her "Serinyu" with respect, and her attitude was fairly gentle. She must hold some high status among them.
How does an idiot like her end up in charge?
So whiny and dim-witted.
"Hey, Serinyu. The whole point of swapping gifts today was to make friends with me, right? Mission accomplished. No need to get mad."
"Hmmm..."
"Right? Think about it calmly. I didn't trick you. You've got no reason to be pissed."
"Yeah... I guess."
Finally, some sense sinking in.
Serinyu came back over to me.
"Got it. But you're kinda dumb. You suck at explaining things."
"This bitch..."
Just let me flick her forehead once. Please.
"I thought you were tricking me."
"That's on you for jumping to conclusions."
"What? So it's my fault?"
"...No. It's nobody's fault. Let's just move on."
"No. It's your fault."
Agh!
"Fine. My bad."
"Heh, admitting it feels good. Anyway, forget me asking for the stone back. Keep it. I only said that 'cause I thought you'd screwed me over."
It's useless anyway!
"Now, back to business. So what's this stuff? What's inside? You said it wasn't some pretty yellow stone."
Let go of your stone obsession... Nah.
What was the point?
>—Pop.
I popped the lid right off.
"This. We call it white stuff."
"Shaa. It's yummy. And good for the body too."
Sharan chimed in with the backup explanation as I spoke.
"What? Yummy? Good for you?"
Whether it worked or not, Serinyu perked up with interest, eyes sparkling. Was she really this easy?
>—Snatch!
She even yanked the jar right out of my hands.
"Oh? It's white. And looks all sticky."
"It's yummy, so drink some too, Serinyu."
Sharan said it with a beaming smile.
Anyone seeing that grin would fall for it hook, line, and sinker.
Up close like this, that smile almost seemed sinister. Come to think of it, Sharan was basically a forest spirit who lured people in and ate them.
"Hmmm... Like honey?"
Serinyu sniffed at the opening.
It probably smelled kinda fishy. I'd have to smooth-talk her past it.
But then.
"Oh wow. It really does smell sweet. Kinda like honey, huh?"
"What?"
Sweet?
Was mine sweet? No, I'd read somewhere that cum tastes different based on diet, but it was always kinda salty-fishy, right?
First time hearing my white stuff had a sweet aroma.
"Sharan. Is this sweet?"
"Yes, Master. White stuff is sweet."
"Huh... How come I never knew?"
I couldn't tell.
Oh.
Maybe only female monsters could smell the sweetness? Made sense. Good stuff always tasted bitter, right? Or not. Whatever.
Perfect.
Time to get her to drink it.
Once she did, Serinyu would be in my pocket. No downside. I could think of it as educating this rude little brat.
"Give it a try. You'll love it, I bet. I loved your stone, after all."
I threw in some stone praise to seal the deal. Honestly, the stones were pretty. I liked them. But as trade goods? Total rip-off.
"Right? We all love pretty stones. Okay, I'll try it. We've swapped precious stuff now, so no fighting from here on out. Got it?"
"Obviously."
"No betraying me later. And no fake 'truces' that turn into sneak attacks."
She was laying it out like a strict contract.
If I planned a surprise attack anyway, empty words like that meant nothing. So damn naive. Believing that crap to the letter. If it weren't me, she'd be in deep shit.
"Got it. No fighting, ever. That's why we're friends."
"Good."
Serinyu nodded, looking satisfied.
And then.
"Alright... Let's give it a taste."
Serinyu drank my white stuff.
>—Gulp.
>—Gulp.
"..."
She really did it.
For real.
Without a shred of doubt.
Just chugged it right there.
Pixies... Let's lump them in as forest fairy folk for simplicity.
Dryads, rusalkas, pixies—they were all fairy types. The defining trait? Incredibly naive and trusting.
Way too defenseless.
What if it was poisoned? Guzzling it like that. We hadn't even known each other long, and "friends" and "pacts" were just words.
Any human with half a brain wouldn't do it past toddler age. You learn not to eat random shit from strangers.
But pixie Serinyu? She bought the flimsy "friendship pact" and downed my white stuff without hesitation.
"..."
Even after all her annoying bullshit, seeing this innocence was starting to prick my conscience.
That moment.
"Ah!"
"Eek!"
The little shit screamed out of nowhere and scared the crap out of me!
"It's delicious!"
"What? Delicious?"
"Yeah! So sweet! And it tingles going down! What is this stuff?!"
Excited Serinyu closed the distance, squealing as she asked.
It had worked, as expected.
"How'd you make it?! I want more!"
Not like a kid tasting candy for the first time or anything.
She was hooked hard. Her favor toward me had skyrocketed—you could see it. Fists clenched at her chest, eyes sparkling.
"No way. That good?"
"Yeah! First time for this flavor! Sweet and tingly! Hey everyone! This stuff he gave us is amazing!"
>—Jiggle jiggle!
She hopped around, tits flopping wildly. Quite the sight.
"R-Really that good, Serinyu?"
"I wanna try too."
These ones were just as innocent. The plain brown-haired pixies eyed my white stuff curiously.
"Master. Success."
"Yeah. Looks like it."
Total victory.
Nailed it.
The plot to feed pixies my white stuff.
"White stuff, right? Too yummy! We're friends now!"
Pure affection, shining bright.
She grabbed my hand, grinning ear to ear.
"Glad you like it. I was happy with your stone. Seeing you happy makes me happy too."
"Pffft! You get its value! Guess you're not as dumb as you seem."
Another dig? Here?
"Anyway, I want more white stuff. We're friends now, so hook me up!"
"Bring more stones."
"What?! No way! These were already precious! I deserve more white stuff!"
This bitch—friends for five minutes and already pulling this?
Still, after seeing her pure side and realizing she'd fallen completely into my pace...
She was kinda cute.
Plus.
>—Jiggle.
Those tits. Damn.
Too big.
Time to drive the nail home.
"Fine. They do look valuable. Super valuable, even."
"Right?!"
"Yeah. So here's more white stuff. Didn't expect something this good, so I only brought a little. Sorry."
"Yeah! You brought way too little! Pay more attention next time! Now give me more!"
"Here."
"Yay!"
>—Flap flap flap!
So thrilled, Serinyu fluttered her wings in low flight, zipping around me.
One taste of something yummy, and she was putty.
"But I can't make it right here."
"Oh, right. You make it?"
"Follow me? I'll give you some there."
"Okay!"
Instant yes.
She was all in. No more sweet-talking needed. One yummy treat, and this picky pain-in-the-ass trusted me completely.
Pixies were too easy.
"Let's go."
I held out my hand.
"Yeah!"
Serinyu took it.
"You guys wait here! I'll be right back!"
"Serinyu! Not fair if you hog it!"
"Yeah!"
"Don't worry! You'll all get some! Let's go!"
She was so pumped, she tried to lead the way.
"Sure."
And so I took Serinyu's hand and headed to a secluded spot. She grinned the whole time, thrilled.
I swear, this wasn't a kidnapping.
"Heh heh heh. Let's head to a quiet spot together, missy."
"Hurry up!"
