"You planning to drag me to some sleazy joint or what?"
Sure enough, Kana took the bait right away.
"It's just a normal restaurant. You'll see once we go in."
"Normal? The sign says 'Elf Slave Bar'!"
"Whatever, let's just check it out. If you don't like it, we can leave."
I managed to talk Kana into it, and once we stepped inside, it was surprisingly ordinary—just like Biska had said.
There were quite a few folks there with the same master-and-elf-slave setup as us.
The waitstaff were elf slaves, too.
I realized not every elf was a knockout like Kana.
Sure, they were generally more refined-looking than humans on average, but even among elves, there were clear levels of attractiveness. Couldn't be helped.
Kana's beauty, with her collar on proud display, immediately drew every eye in the place.
"Could I see your registration tag, please?"
"Here."
"And who might your master be?"
At first, Kana seemed embarrassed and just pointed at me with her finger.
The waitress tilted her head.
"...This man over here is my master."
"Confirmed. Enjoy your time."
We were shown to an empty table.
We each ordered what we wanted, and up to this point, everything felt pretty standard.
"But do we have cash?"
"Just put it on the Shadow Guild's tab. Right now, I'm debating whether to order drinks or not."
"...Huh?"
Biska glanced at me cautiously as she spoke.
"We're still on the job, remember? Sure, it'll wear off by morning after some sleep, but drinking on duty needs the client's approval."
"Never thought I'd see the day the great Biska gets chatty about booze. You must really want a drink."
"I do."
"Flash me those tits later, and you're on."
"Deal."
I shook on the booze-for-tits exchange with Biska.
Kana didn't say a word, like she'd gotten used to me groping Biska.
"Kana?"
"Yeah? Oh. I was just looking around."
"Other elf slaves?"
I lowered my voice a bit.
"The Elder might have known... She knew the forest elves hated slave traders, but we had no choice but to choose coexistence."
"Well, she seems like she's got some experience in human society."
That said, she probably wouldn't bother persuading a natural-born forest elf like Kana.
"I'll go tie up the carriage before the food arrives. Gotta let the prisoners go, too."
Biska said after placing the drink order.
"You sure it's okay to release them already?"
"Sending them home now'll make tomorrow's talks smoother."
"Alright. Hurry back."
Once Biska left the bar, a massive beer mug arrived at our table like clockwork.
"Should we start without her?"
"First time drinking."
"Sip it slow with some snacks."
Even beer can sneak up on you if you chug it.
As soon as the snacks arrived, Kana started nibbling and gradually got comfortable with the bar's vibe.
"Mmm... Hehe. Feels kinda nice..."
Drunk Kana was way cuter.
"Jae-hyeok. You like havin' me as your slave?"
"Love it."
I scooted closer and hugged her. Kana nuzzled into my shoulder.
"I like... you bein' my master, too."
"Booze confession?"
"Don't wanna admit it, but... when I put on this collar, my heart kinda fluttered."
"..."
"Your fault."
What a cutie.
I kneaded her soft cheeks while staying by her side.
Just as the pleasant buzz hit, a dart game kicked off in the center of the elf bar.
"Ah! So close to the bullseye!"
"Your round now."
"Ugh, damn it."
'Livelier than I expected.'
That's when a group of guys approached our table.
Kana tensed up immediately.
"Hey! Just gotta ask 'cause I'm dying to know..."
"Sorry, but Kana's got a master."
"...No, seriously—what's the story behind that cum-soaked getup from head to toe?"
"..."
"..."
Shit.
At least give me a break with Kana here, huh?
I didn't want to keep remembering that I was rocking these weird tights!
"It's just between us guys, no need to get all sensitive."
"Right? No normal person's fashion sense."
"And it's blinding white. Not just white—stand in the sun, and it'll blind you."
"Gotta wonder what kinda headspace someone's in to wear that."
Nosy bunch.
"It's magical armor that boosts virility. Happy?"
"Whoa!"
"No way!!"
"Virility booster, huh... How much? Hey, elf slave—spill it for us!"
Kana mumbled without thinking.
"Uh, enough to pass out?"
She was clearly thinking of Ellie before our adventure.
"Ooh..."
"Dude, you chug that and still wear that?"
"I'm already at that level. Don't need it."
"Bullshit. You pass out snoring five minutes after hitting the room with your slave."
The friends got heated, bantering back and forth.
Just leave already.
"So where'd you snag those ridiculous tights?"
"A goddess gave 'em to me."
"A goddess?!"
"What!?"
They were hammered enough for killer reactions.
Guess I was buzzed too, not telling them to scram.
"Banged a goddess, and she gave 'em as a souvenir."
"Ooooh, fuck yeah. Epic."
"Sex with a goddess? Insanely jealous. Heard they're all hotties."
'Hot is right...'
Only seen two, but both were jaw-droppingly gorgeous with killer bodies.
"Thanks for clearing up our curiosity. Here's something for the tab."
"Uh, sure..."
What? They're paying?
...Shit, how wild was my cum-tights story to them?
Hard to believe they came just to ask about it.
Thought they might pickpocket me or something.
'Funny guys...'
"Jae-hyuk~."
Kana's tongue was slurring.
"Lemme play darts too?"
"You okay...?"
"Fine."
Looked like the elf slaves' darts game caught her eye.
"Gotta get master's permission to play."
"When'd you turn into such a dutiful slave?"
"Here... you can treat me like one."
"..."
Something lewd stirred in me.
"Go have fun, Kana."
"Okay, Master."
While watching Kana play and waiting for Biska,
a sharp, electric jolt zapped through me.
Divine Presence Detected
!
A goddess's aura!
'The tights... You found her? A goddess!'
I shot to my feet, scanning the room.
Too shocked by the divine presence to stay calm.
That's when I spotted long black hair heading toward a dim corner that looked like a storage closet. I strode right over.
"Kana! Wait a few minutes for me."
"Huh? Oh, sure!"
Rounded the corner,
and tailed the black-haired woman from behind.
My heart pounded like it would burst.
Even just thinking about rudely grabbing her ass had my brain buzzing with excitement.
Pushed aside worries like "What if it's not her?"
Grabbed her pale arm tight.
"Lemme see your face."
Can't exactly ask a stranger if she's a goddess.
She'd think I was some outdated pickup artist.
So I decided to confirm if she was the same one.
'The goddess who made me wear these tights has to be watching me from somewhere.'
That's what I'd do.
"Hey. Didn't you hear me? Turn around."
"..."
She turned slowly.
A beauty with black hair, purple eyes, and porcelain skin.
Ah...
I knew instantly.
Not the goddess I was hunting. But if she was one, no guess would fit better.
'How'd I miss a stunner like her in this bar till now?'
Impossible.
Her aura was on another level.
"...Let go."
That one word made me release her.
I towered over her, but those charismatic eyes...
I faltered a bit...
'How do I confirm she's a goddess now?'
"If you're drunk, why not drink quietly and leave?"
"Wait—I was looking for someone... No, a goddess."
"...What goddess?"
"A black-haired... goddess."
She brushed back her flowing hair like she was showing it off.
"Ah."
Only then did I see.
It looked pitch black, but under the light, it shimmered deep purple.
I got a little drunk on that stunning violet glow.
Her face had a mystical beauty.
But those purple eyes were snake-like, chilling.
"My mistake. Sorry."
"Those clothes."
"Pardon?"
She eyed my tights.
"A goddess really gave them to you?"
"...Yeah."
"...Unbelievable."
She tossed that out and vanished.
...She denied the black hair, but not being a goddess.
Was that her?
The dark goddess the Shadows served?
'...Gorgeous.'
And stacked...
Vague urge to see her again pulled me after her, but
after rounding the corner, the presumed goddess was gone.
...Time to head back.
"Yes! How's that?!"
Huh? Kana?
Back at the table, Biska sat sipping her beer and waved at me.
Kana was triumphantly victory-posing after dominating the elf slaves at darts.
"Master~!"
Drunk Kana ran up with a pouch of coins and hugged me.
"Made money. Praise me~."
"...!?"
"Master, quick. Praise your good slave Kana~."
"...Uh, okay."
This girl's wasted. How many rounds did she win?
Empty mugs around—bet booze on darts, won booze; bet money, won money.
Cleaned house, apparently.
An elf who nails shots from dozens of meters? Darts is child's play.
Doing it drunk? Impressive.
I hugged Kana tight and stroked her hair. She smiled, rubbing against me in my arms.
Like a puppy.
Drunk Kana, pride and bravado forgotten, craved only my praise.
"Good girl, Kana."
"Ah... Mmm... Yes. Love the praise."
Even covered the tab.
Damn, Kana.
I sat with my cuddly Kana and eyed Biska.
"Total puppy now."
"The booze."
"Might be her real self. Sweet elf slave living for your praise."
"Maybe."
I didn't mind. Loved it, actually.
I kissed her forehead, doubling down on the praise.
Kana beamed, wrapping her arms around my neck and clinging.
"Carriage secured okay?"
"Yeah. They grumbled, but the prisoners all went home safe."
Just negotiate directly tomorrow, then.
Wonder if I'd spot that purple-haired woman again.
"Remember that woman sitting alone behind me?"
"Huh? Outta nowhere... Was there someone back there?"
Goddess or not...
My senses sharpened.
"Not your usual playful White. Something up?"
"Nothing yet."
"Hm. Alright?"
Biska topped off her mug.
"...By the way, client—how strong are you with booze?"
That night.
On the way back to the inn, two women clung to me.
"Whiiiite~ Hehe."
"Uuuun... White..."
"Shoulda paced yourselves, you two...!!"
Barely got the sloshed pair into bed.
Fuck, how's two girls heavier than my sword?
"Mmmph."
"Ung..."
Locked up so long, I get wanting to cut loose...
"Biska. You gonna wake up tomorrow?"
"Whiiiite..."
Then Biska shifted her leotard aside, exposing one breast.
Plump...
"Mmm... Take whatcha want..."
Funny she remembered the deal mid-haze.
Help yourself, huh...
I gathered the leotard to the center and lifted.
"Eep. Ah."
Biska squirmed, tit out, leotard wedged in her pussy, body half-floating.
What a slutty body.
"For hauling you here, that's extra."
Schlick.
My raging hard-on poked out like "My turn now?"
