Chapter 460: Crossroads
Chapter 460: Crossroads
Even though I’d been given permission to be with other women under a condition that was practically non-existent, I didn’t immediately run off to tell Silvia.
There were several reasons for this.
The biggest reason was that I felt it wouldn’t be right to rush over and deliver the news to Silvia the moment I got the okay.
I decided it would be far better to spend some time with my girls first.
Besides that, there were other reasons, too. I could only see a future where Silvia would die from sheer happiness if I told her now. I also thought it would be better to tell her after I’d granted the wish she’d mentioned. There were many reasons.
In any case, we didn’t disperse after our talk was over. Instead, we all spent some quality time together, just the four of us, for the first time in a long while.
Come to think of it, it felt like it had been ages since the four of us had gathered to hang out for no particular reason.
Well, Diana had been passed out with her head on my thigh the entire time, but still.
For the sake of her honor, I should mention that she didn’t throw up.
In fact, Leia had cast a healing spell on her right away, so it wouldn’t have been strange for her to be perfectly fine.
Could she have been faking it? No. Not that it would have mattered if she was.
“Alright, girls, I’m planning to head back to the dungeon tomorrow. Does anyone have other plans?”
Later, during dinner.
After we finished our meal, I let them know the plan for the next day.
“Huh? Tomorrow? Isn’t that different from what you said this morning?”
“W-well, about that…”
It was because I’d already taken care of everything I needed to do before going to the dungeon.
I’d worked on lifting the curse with Matilda, and I’d also… well, I wasn’t certain, but I’d at least come up with a guess as to why Elder Sister Rachel was angry.
No. No matter how I thought about it, the only conclusion I could reach was that Elder Sister Rachel was so angry because she liked me.
Once my thoughts had solidified in that direction, I couldn’t seem to think of any other possibilities.
In any case, the reasons I’d postponed the dungeon trip this morning had all been resolved, so there was no reason to delay any longer.
To think I’d put off a dungeon dive to work on Matilda’s curse and to figure out why Elder Sister Rachel was pouting.
I could never tell Sara that, not even if I died.
I mumbled my way through Sara’s sharp question and glanced at Matilda, who seemed to have guessed why I’d postponed the trip this morning.
She was trying not to show it, but a faint blush was spreading across her face.
“Matilda.”
“Ye-yes…?”
No. It was more than a blush; she was already half in her lovey-dovey mode.
Hey. No matter what, isn’t that a little too fast?
Don’t fall for me over something like that.
Does she not remember how mechanically I was moving at the start?
“Are you okay with going to the dungeon tomorrow? You said you had something to discuss with the Pope, but you didn’t get to go to the temple today.”
“Ah, ahem. Ye-yes. It’s fine. It wasn’t urgent, so it’s alright if we talk another time.”
My question seemed to snap her back to her senses, and she gave a proper answer, so there was no problem.
“That’s a relief. Silvia, you’re okay with it too, right?”
“Hic?! Ye-yes, sir!”
Silvia, who had been sipping tea in the corner, jumped in surprise and answered, clearly not expecting me to address her one-on-one.
Ah, right. Sorry. Go on, drink your tea.
…Will she actually die if she finds out what we talked about today?
Forget an Apostle Appointment, I wouldn’t be surprised if she died from just a kiss.
Whether she knew what I was thinking or not, Silvia couldn’t even think about drinking her tea and just continued to tremble violently.
So she’d been staring at me this whole time.
“Well, anyway, it’s settled. We’re going to the dungeon tomorrow. Vanessa, sorry to ask, but could you please start the preparations?”
“Yes. Understood.”
With the dungeon trip decided, we broke for the night.
Just then, Leia, whose turn it was tonight, clung to my arm.
On the nights she spent with me, she almost always washed up in my room.
“So, are we going to look for the 3.5th floor next?”
She brought her lips to my ear and whispered in a tiny voice.
Information about the sub-layers was a secret among our party members, so she was likely trying to keep others from hearing.
Thanks to that, Leia’s sweet scent filled my nostrils, and her breasts pressed firmly against my arm.
This is bliss.
“That’s right. I have a rough idea of where the entrance is. It probably won’t take too long.”
“Oh? Is that so?”
“Yeah. So this time, we’ll probably spend more time exploring the inside of the 3.5th floor than actually finding it.”
“My. Then it will be cold again.”
Ah, right.
The Kobold Cave on the 1st floor and the Ant Nest on the 2nd had environments almost identical to their main layers.
Did that mean the 3.5th floor would be cold?
As expected of my angel. So smart.
Looks like Diana is in for some trouble again.
As I thought that, I was about to look over at Diana, but I realized Leia was already staring intently at her.
And her expression looked like she was already planning to hug Diana for warmth.
…My angel. I know you know this, but Diana isn’t a living heater.
Well, it’s not like I have any room to talk, since I’m always hugging and playing with her.
“Wh-what is it?!”
As if some crisis instinct was triggered by Leia’s gaze, Diana suddenly jumped and looked our way.
“Nothing. I was just saying it’ll probably be cold on our next dungeon trip.”
“Ah…!”
Was that gasp of realization from Diana, or was it from Leia? Or both?
“O-of course! How could this great one not have thought of that! Vanessa! Vanessaaaa!”
With a look of sudden understanding, Diana hurriedly called for Vanessa and ran off.
Beside me, Leia was looking at me with a slightly sulky face.
“Guwon. That was mean.”
“Sorry. As an apology, I’ll let you hug my body all night long.”
“But you’re not cute, Guwon…”
“L-Leia?!”
“I-I’m kidding! Really! It was just a joke! You’re handsome, Guwon! So please don’t make that face.”
“No, even if it’s a joke, hearing that from you really makes me lose my will to live. Please be careful in the future.”
“Oh, Guwon. Making jokes like that again…”
Thinking I was joking, Leia shot me a gentle glare and lightly tapped my back with her tail.
No. I wasn’t joking, though.
But for Leia to make such a mischievous joke at me.
It was something I couldn’t have imagined her doing normally.
I wonder if she was also stressed out by what happened during the day.
Sara had released her stress by fully unleashing her aggression, and Diana had healed by resting on my thigh, but Leia had just quietly endured it all.
Still, if teasing me like this helps Leia relieve her stress, then maybe it’s not so bad.
Well, it might be a little… no, a lot of torture for me, who has to take her teasing.
Since she’s never like this, I have no resistance, so the damage is doubled.
But for my beloved Leia, I can endure!
“Alright, Leia. How about we don’t worry about any special training tonight?”
Back in the room, we finished our showers and lay naked in bed, facing each other.
“Hehe. Is this part of what you said earlier, about loving me more than ever before?”
Leia rested her head on my arm, tracing circles on my chest with her finger as she smiled softly.
“Well, that’s part of it, but more than that, I just feel like loving you tonight without a single thought in my head.”
“Guwon…”
“So if you have any requests tonight, Leia, don’t hesitate to tell me.”
“Requests? Hmm… let’s see… In that case… yes. Please just lie still like this.”
Leia lightly pinched my nipple with the finger that had been circling my chest, then smiled slyly as she slowly moved her hand downward.
She then pressed her chest against mine, as if draping half her body over me, and began to slowly move her torso in a circle, rubbing her breasts against me.
With the hand that had moved down, she took hold of my Dick and began to slowly stroke it up and down.
“What? But this is just like usual…”
Of course, I was enjoying it. I already felt like I was in heaven.
But we’d decided to just enjoy ourselves without thinking about training, so wouldn’t this be boring for Leia?
She could do whatever she wanted for a change.
But Leia slowly shook her head.
“No. It’s completely different. Usually, I do my best to please you, Guwon. But tonight, I’m going to do exactly what I want.”
Leia said this with a smile that felt somehow different from her usual one.
“Is that okay?”
“Y-yeah. Of course. I’ll stay perfectly still.”
“Hehe. Mmm… smooch.”
Hearing my answer, Leia grinned and pressed her lips to mine.
It was a deep kiss, her lips pressing firmly against mine, but she didn’t use her tongue, breaking away after our lips had simply touched.
Then, Leia slowly moved her body downward.
She’s going to do what she wants? What on earth is she planning?
“Hehe. How cute.”
Positioning herself between my legs as if to give me oral sex, Leia brought her face close to my Dick and immediately launched an assault that dealt massive damage to my psyche.
And it came from a direction I had never anticipated.
“L-Leia?! C-cute…?!”
My… my Dick is cute?!
Wait a minute. No. That can’t be right. My Super Ultra Great Magnum King God Emperor… anyway, the one body part I could name without hesitation if asked what I was most confident in… is cute?!
“Hehe. Yes. Now that it’s so smooth, it looks a little cute.”
And Leia said this while pointing at my Dick, which was completely devoid of a single hair.
Ah, ahh! I see! So that’s what she meant by cute. You scared me.
“S-still, doesn’t it have more of an intimidating presence than a cute one? It looks bigger without any hair.”
“That’s true. It does look a little bigger. Hehe. But it’s still cute.”
Even after understanding her reasoning, I still didn’t like the word “cute,” so I tried desperately to argue, but Leia just poked the tip of my Dick with her finger and called it cute again.
M-my angel…
Leia is so good at reading my expressions. Surely she knows I don’t like my Dick being called cute?
Is she deliberately teasing me again, like before?
Or is she doing this because of the shocked look on my face when she said I wasn’t cute earlier?
While I was lost in thought, Leia continued to play with my Dick.
First, with the finger that had been poking the tip, she repeatedly pressed and released the urethral opening.
Soon, sticky pre-cum began to coat her slender fingertip. Once her finger was sufficiently covered, she began to spread it over my Dick.
First, she circled her finger around the glans, then touched the opening again before drawing a straight line down the shaft.
It wasn’t a movement meant to pleasure me like usual, but one that truly felt like she was just playing with my Dick.
Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t feel good, but being stimulated in such a small area with just one finger created more of a frustrating ache than pleasure.
If I had my way, I would have asked her to stimulate me more properly, but I’d just said what I said moments ago.
I had no choice but to endure it tonight.
“Hehe. It really is cute.”
Watching my Dick twitch reflexively from the tantalizing stimulation, Leia said it one more time before sticking out her slightly longer-than-average tongue and touching its tip to the base of my shaft.
Then, in one smooth motion, she licked all the way up to the tip.
The stimulation was stronger than before, but it was still far from satisfying.
After licking my Dick once, Leia gave the tip a light peck, as if kissing it, then pulled away with a grin.
