Chapter Title: Elf's Overflowing Affection
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Esty sent the orc up in flames with a Fireball without a moment's hesitation.
We took down way more orcs today than yesterday.
Enough to fill four large soul stones to the brim.
But my level growth stalled at 87, and I had a pretty good idea why.
The experience from orcs just wasn't cutting it for my growth anymore.
"Esty. How do I level up more from here?"
"Catch monsters like minotaurs, gargoyles, hobgoblins, or skeleton warriors."
"How strong are those?"
"They're the kind that take a party of three or more gold-rank adventurers to bring down.
A lot of people lose their lives to them."
Got it.
This must be the line in the sand.
I'm not planning on living and dying as an adventurer, so taking on more risk than this probably isn't worth it.
"Should we fill up the rest of the soul stones before we go?"
"......"
Esty was looking off somewhere else, like something had caught her attention.
"Esty?"
"Decal. There's a boss nearby. It's the culprit behind this monster outbreak."
A scream suddenly rang out from close by.
"Uwaaak! Help!"
"Let's go."
I hurried toward the scream with Esty.
There was a giant... no, an orc. It was ridiculously huge. Twice my height?
Its whole body was rippling with muscle, and it wielded a sharply honed double-headed axe stained red with fresh blood—it had already taken out a few people.
"We're saved!"
"Look, it's the Lofty Hunter."
"We're gonna live."
"Please take down that orc!"
The ground was littered with adventurers who'd been utterly demolished by the orc.
The orc turned toward us and leered, sticking out its tongue.
"Woman. Come to my arms, and I'll spare your life."
What the hell. It even talks?
The sight made the hair on my neck stand on end.
"Abandon that male and come to my side. Right now."
Esty nocked an arrow.
The orc took that as the signal to start the fight and charged straight at us.
"Huh!"
Terror froze my body as the monster towering over three meters bore down on us.
Esty calmly drew her bowstring, and the orc hurled the axe in her hand right at her.
In that split second.
Esty's arrow left a streak of light as it pierced the orc's head.
The double-headed axe, mid-range in flight, shattered into pieces like glass shards raining down—testament to the arrow's power.
The orc dropped to its knees, headless, and arrows slammed into its chest one after another, two, three.
Esty didn't stop firing until she'd punched three holes the size of human faces through its torso.
"Whoa. Whoaaa...!"
"That's elf archery for you!"
"That's the skill of a diamond-rank hunter...!!"
Like the crowd's reactions, I was stunned too.
"Esty, you..."
Esty turned to me and said.
"I told you orcs are easy for me."
She wasn't kidding.
The boss orc had looked way too strong for me to handle—probably was, in fact.
But to Esty, it was nothing.
Esty walked forward and reached into the hole in the orc's chest.
She pulled out a red gem.
"What's that?"
"Red soul stone. The source of the monster outbreak. We need to destroy it here."
Esty tossed the red soul stone into the air and shot it with an arrow, shattering it.
"Let's head back. The orcs won't multiply anymore now."
Esty acted like it was just another day at the office, utterly nonchalant.
But that beautiful, intense display she'd just put on—no one here would forget it. Me included. I'd etched it into my mind: Esty's strength, the side of her face like a flower blooming on a cliff.
The moment we got back, I cashed in the large soul stones.
Word must've spread like wildfire, because by the time we arrived, the place was buzzing about the platinum-haired elf who'd shot down the orc boss.
And it was all true.
"What can I help you with?"
At the counter, Aselin smiled at me.
"You kept my words in mind, right?"
Aselin's cheeks flushed red.
"Yes, Decal's cum from when you came inside me is still deep in my pussy."
Satisfied after the check, I placed the large soul stones on the counter.
"Cash these in, please."
"The payout for the large soul stones, plus the mission completion reward, comes to a total of 217 gold."
Aselin set a pouch of gold coins on the counter.
It was stuffed to the brim with coins.
"Should I hold onto this?"
"Yeah. I'm hungry."
"Alright. Let's go eat something delicious today."
As I turned, the long-haired guy from yesterday was clapping with a beaming smile.
His name was... right, Wabid?
"Congratulations. As expected of the Lofty Hunter.
Truly impressive. Ha ha ha."
"......"
"And your companion there must have played a big role too. I would've loved to see it."
"Decal."
Esty said in an annoyed tone. I thought she was calling me, but no.
"Yeah?"
"Not 'the one over there'... Decal."
"Ah, my apologies. Decal."
"It's fine. Can we go now? I wanna rest up quick."
Wabid stepped aside.
"Of course. Hope to see you again."
The moment we stepped outside, Esty grumbled.
"That guy's annoying."
Can't help it if she forgot his name. To anyone looking, Esty was the star, and I was the sidekick.
Wabid was kinda pitiful, though.
But he'd chosen to talk to a human-distrusting elf, so he must've been prepared for that.
"Let's go eat."
I enjoyed a feast with Esty.
But I was craving something a little different too.
I'm not picky, but the food in Dry Village felt kinda limited in variety.
We'd sorted the monster outbreak, and we had plenty of cash now.
So what was next?
Absolutely nothing.
How great is that?
More precisely, I wanted to spend the whole day goofing off with Esty.
"Esty. I'm taking two days off from adventurer work."
"Suddenly?"
"Until Karen shows up."
That red-haired swordswoman. Just imagining her strutting up to me on her own, those lewd tits bouncing, had me excited already.
"We'll stay together at the Eight-Colored Clam Castle during that time."
"...Two whole days?"
"Yeah, non-stop."
Esty placed a piece of meat she'd been holding onto my side.
"...What's that mean?"
"It means I want lots of love...."
Who could've guessed this merciless orc-slaying elf had such a cute side?
I felt my lips curling up against my will.
Like always, we booked a room at the Water and Grass Inn, then headed to the Eight-Colored Clam Castle.
The second we got inside the single room, Esty threw herself into my arms and shoved me down.
"Hua. Mm. Ungh...."
She pressed her body tight against mine like she couldn't hold back anymore.
Guess I wasn't the only one suffering.
"Let's wash up first. I stink of sweat—stop sniffing."
"I like your sweat smell too. It's Decal's scent."
I love Esty's smell too, but we'd been running around the forest all day.
My hygiene senses were screaming red alert.
"We can relax in the bath... huh?"
"Not letting go."
Esty's face was full of joy.
Like she was unleashing all the feelings she couldn't show outside, now that it was just us in the castle.
I took Esty with me to the big bath.
The water was perfectly warm, like someone had prepared it just for us, and crystal clear.
Without me asking, Esty started trying to undress me.
I stripped her clothes off myself too.
We slipped into the bath together for a half-body soak.
Esty climbed right onto my lap, though.
"Stay still. I'll give you that thigh massage you like."
Esty turned her back to me and pressed close.
Then she slipped my cock between her thighs and clamped them shut.
Ah, feels good even in the water.
I turned Esty's head for a kiss, savoring the languid pleasure.
My fatigue was melting away.
Esty's thigh squeeze was the best.
Without breaking the kiss, Esty gently stroked the part of my cock sticking out from between her thighs.
"Mwah. Smack.... Mmm.... Mm. I love you."
Esty whispered with hazy eyes, softly tangling her tongue with mine.
"I love you too."
Nothing but the splashing water and Esty's soft breaths filled the air.
No rushing, no pounding.
Just tenderly caressing each other.
Running hands down her pretty lower back, fondling her breasts.
"Haaang.... Hn. Smack. Chup."
Esty gazed at me with loving eyes while we kissed.
Like there was nothing at all between us.
"Turn around this way."
I held Esty and slid into her pussy.
"Hn, huaa...."
It's underwater and an awkward position, so moving freely is tough.
But just being inside felt amazing.
"Mm. Hngk...."
Even super slow thrusts.
Esty trembled sensitively, feeling it all.
"Haa.... Mm. Ungh.... Haa...."
"Want to hold hands?"
Esty nodded.
We clasped hands and slowly thrust in and out, over and over.
Esty climaxed quietly, holding her breath.
"~~! Ngh, hngt.... Ah...."
Her pussy clenched tight around my cock.
Esty writhed in front of me, lost in pleasure, then leaned her weight against me to catch her breath.
"Let's go to the bed."
"...Mm."
I grabbed Esty as she tried to get up.
"Darling...?"
"Like this."
"E-embarrassing!"
With my cock still inside, I lifted Esty up.
Instinctively, she wrapped her legs around my waist to cling on.
"Put me down."
Carrying the shy Esty, I headed to the changing room.
With my strength now, it was no problem.
Esty, legs spread wide and impaled on my cock hanging off me, buried her face in my shoulder out of embarrassment, refusing to lift her head.
"Let's wipe off some water first."
I set Esty's ass on a shelf, grabbed a dry towel, and roughly patted her down.
Esty squeezed my waist with her legs and said.
"Q-quickly...."
I gripped Esty's lower body, pulled out, and thrust back in.
"Hiyat...!"
With her weight, I figured I could support her with my arms, so I held her up and pounded away.
"Hngit! Mm! Haaang...!"
I quickly got the hang of it, holding her steady as I slammed into her pussy.
"Nghak...! Mm! Hngh.... N-noo. Too much... feeling it...!"
Esty wrapped her arms around my neck to support her weight, legs held by me.
Her ass hung down like fruit, pussy exposed and defenseless as I hammered it.
"Ungit! Hak. Mm! Mm! Mm!"
"How's that? Perfect, right?"
"It's strong but good♥ I love the hard pounding♥"
Esty's pussy juices dripped in drops to the floor.
"Esty. I love you."
"Hk! Haat! Mnghk! D-don't say that now, I'll cum♥"
Esty's pussy squeezed tight.
"Why not? You're the only one for me. I love you."
Esty's ears turned red as she hung her head, stifling moans.
To break that silence, I pounded harder, and Esty panicked, flailing her calves.
Squelch squelch—my fully erect cock plunged deep, churning her soft pussy.
"Hngik! Mnghok...! C-cumming...!"
Esty threw her head back.
I unloaded all the cum I'd been holding back deep inside her pussy.
"Can an elf make a face like that?"
"Ahee...."
Esty stuck out her tongue in ecstasy.
She didn't even have the spare brainpower to hear me.
I carried the now-docile Esty to the bedroom.
We dove onto the soft bed, and I pinned her beneath me, slamming back into her pussy.
"Higyak! Mnghot...! Hnguk...!"
"Let's have tons of sex for two days."
"Yhes...♥ Want lots of love♥ Make me have your baby, darling♥"
I kept fucking Esty without letting go.
I pounded her pussy until I couldn't get hard anymore, came inside, held her close until I got erect again, then went right back in.
Forgetting all about the outside world.
Even when my cum started leaking back out of Esty's pussy, I didn't stop.
"Haaang, mmaa♥ Nghik♥ Cumming♥"
When I got too tired to move, I used my hands to tease her breasts and clit.
Esty moaned sweetly without end, twitching in response to my touch.
Half a day slipped by like that.
No clue how many hours exactly. I savored Esty's soft naked body against mine, whining.
"Ah, I don't wanna go out."
"Hee hee...."
Esty's pleasant weight settled on me.
"I wanna stay with darling forever too."
Tempting offer.
What if I just moved all the girls I picked here into the Eight-Colored Clam Castle?
It'd take prep, but a harem for me sounds nice.
"Darling...."
Esty, exhausted, fell asleep right in my arms.
I stopped stroking her hair and closed my eyes too.
I thought it'd be a quick nap, but when I opened them, it was pitch black outside. I carefully set Esty down without waking her and tucked her in.
I headed out of the room to use the bathroom.
One big yawn later, and my head cleared up.
"It's dark!"
I called up the menu to turn on the lights.
A soft crimson glow lit the hallway.
Where was the bathroom again? I checked the map data and walked. I was naked, but knowing it was just me and Esty here, I didn't care.
...My erection wouldn't go down easily.
Even after all that with Esty before sleep, I'm still raring to go.
Has my dick leveled up too?
After finishing up and washing my hands, I stepped out—and someone was waiting.
She'd appeared like a ghost, but I wasn't startled.
Familiar face.
"Bella."
My slave had come to me.
