Chapter 150: Test(3)
In the end, Lina's party couldn't find Arwen.
This was unusual. There was no way Arwen hadn't heard the rumor that Lina had drawn the Spirit Sword.
It was news that had spread throughout the entire village.
Lina seemed to think that Arwen's sudden disappearance meant she was either avoiding joining them or, at the very least, wasn't interested.
Natasha's eyes drooped with disappointment as she spoke.
"Is Arwen really not coming?"
"Let's wait until the very last moment, Natasha."
The other elves also volunteered to look for Arwen.
Quite a few of them went, so no matter where Arwen was in the forest, the news would reach her soon.
Lina's party, fully prepared to depart, made their way to the village entrance to leave Scandinavia.
All the elves of Scandinavia had gathered to see them off.
It was quite a spectacle.
I could see the elf who had danced in a dancer's outfit when we first arrived, and the one who had playfully winked while hanging laundry.
There were many elves I'd gotten close to during our stay.
It seemed the elves had moved beyond simply trusting the heroes to genuinely liking them.
The elves called out to Lina's party.
"You'll come visit again, right?"
"May the heroes' journey be safe!"
"Kerry. You're handsome for a human! Don't lose heart."
“…”
Why did they suddenly have to bring up my face? Though, I had to admit, I did feel a bit intimidated standing next to those chiseled male elves.
The only consolation was that none of the women in my party showed any interest in them.
Titania stood before the crowd of elves, as elegant as ever in her queenly dress. It was a shame to leave her behind.
"Kerry..."
Titania called my name, her eyes meeting mine.
With so many eyes on us, we couldn't speak, but her feelings came through in her gaze alone.
I took out the gift I had prepared.
"Your Majesty. This is my farewell gift."
"Don't use the word 'farewell.' We will surely meet again."
"Yes. You're right, Your Majesty."
I handed her the basket containing the gift.
It was something I'd gone to great lengths to acquire. I'd even hired a mage for express delivery.
"My brother from the Magic Tower made this himself. I hope you like it."
At a glance, it looked like an ordinary basket holding a bouquet of flowers. But Titania knew.
Kerry had told her to look forward to it; there was no way he would give her just a bouquet.
Titania carefully pushed the bouquet aside and looked at the bottom of the basket.
"Th-this is...!"
Titania's eyes widened.
At the bottom of the basket was an object shaped like a phallus. Moreover, it was an object shaped exactly like Kerry's familiar cock.
Though Titania had never seen a dildo before, she understood its purpose clearly.
Blushing, Titania looked up at Kerry.
"It's a custom-made item, modeled after my own. Please think of it as my double, Your Majesty."
"I'm so... so happy! Kerry. To think you prepared such a gift!"
That dildo was made by none other than my brother. It wasn't just a dildo shaped like my cock.
It was a dildo with a power source that allowed it to move indefinitely without batteries, and it could analyze and learn the user's orgasm patterns.
"I've included detailed instructions with the gift."
Unable to contain her emotions, Titania threw her arms around Kerry. It was something she shouldn't have done with all the elves watching.
As expected, the elves began to murmur at their queen's actions.
It was no wonder they were surprised to see the normally impassive Titania show such an emotional reaction.
"Your Majesty, many eyes are watching."
"Just once... let me hold you just once."
"You were the one who said this wasn't the last time. Even if my journey isn't over, I'll come visit when I have the chance."
"You must. Kerry."
After I hugged Titania, something had been slipped into my embrace. It was a gift from her.
I was curious what the queen's gift was, but since she'd slipped it to me secretly, it seemed I couldn't check it here.
'Seems like something pretty good.'
Just then, Natasha, perhaps feeling anxious about the strange atmosphere between Titania and me, quickly ran over.
This was my cue. If I acted any closer to Titania, a rumor of a scandalous affair might start circulating among the elves.
I finished my conversation with Titania and returned to the party.
The party waited for Arwen at the village entrance.
The elves who went to find her had said they'd be able to locate her quickly.
Lina spoke with an impatient look on her face.
"Arwen is late."
Natasha and Victoria, who had grown fond of Arwen, looked as if they were desperately hoping she would come.
“Arwen will definitely come!”
“That's right! Arwen will come!”
The Saintess and the old hag didn't seem to care whether she came or not.
No, wait. The Saintess was grumbling to herself, something about how no one had welcomed her like this when she joined.
Of course they didn't.
It was then.
In the distance, the returning elves came into view.
They were the ones who had gone to find Arwen. Among the elves running from tree to tree, I could see Arwen.
Arwen was carrying a backpack bigger than her own body. It was clear what that meant.
Arwen shouted toward the heroes.
"Me... me too! Take me with you!"
Lina's party cheered. Lina, too, smiled in satisfaction, pleased to see Arwen.
Only the Saintess grumbled that no one had welcomed her like this.
*
With Arwen having joined, the party left Scandinavia immediately. Arwen said her goodbyes to her mother, Titania.
Titania seemed to envy Arwen for getting to go with Kerry, but she no longer appeared jealous.
Right. This is what a beautiful mother-daughter relationship looks like.
Kerry didn't know. He didn't know what Titania had whispered to Arwen.
“I... would really like for Kerry to become my son-in-law. You can do it, right, my daughter?”
“...”
Arwen's face turned red.
She took it in a purely innocent sense, like a mother cheering on her daughter's love life.
Lina's party had to run again today. They didn't have a carriage.
This time, however, the journey was quite comfortable, thanks to Arwen.
"Blessing of the Wind!"
Arwen summoned a wind spirit to aid the party's travel.
It was enough that even I could run comfortably without needing to be carried. Of course, being carried was still faster.
Victoria said as she ran.
"Arwen, it's great to have you. I can tell we'll be relying on you a lot from now on."
"That's right, Arwen. We're glad you came. Welcome again!"
“Thank you for welcoming me! Victoria-nim. Natasha-nim.”
Hearing Arwen's awkward formal speech, I commented.
“What's with the formal language? You're a princess, you don't have to do that.”
“R-right now, I'm not a princess, but a companion traveling with you.”
“Oh.”
The party let out a small gasp of admiration. It felt like the immature princess had matured a little before joining us.
Lina also gave a small nod, welcoming Arwen.
Arwen looked at Lina with sparkling eyes.
It was a rather intense gaze, probably because Lina was the Hero.
As they traveled, Arwen kept stealing glances at Kerry. She was still awkward around him.
The Saintess, too, was acting stiff for some reason.
Arwen resolved to be helpful to the party so she could get closer to everyone.
Thanks to the Blessing of the Wind, their travel time was shorter than expected.
Thanks to that, the party was able to take a break.
During the break, Kerry had a secret rendezvous with the Saintess.
"Saintess. Cute little Arwen has joined us, yet your expression is completely rotten. Is that any way to act? You need to think about the party's atmosphere."
"Th-that's... I have something to say about that! I... I... Nnngh! Please, stop sucking my breast and let's talk!"
Kerry was sucking on the Saintess's breast. Delicious, grade-A breast milk poured from her nipple. Kuh. This is the stuff.
Lately, I'd been deliberately dressing the Saintess in clothes that made it easy to drink her milk.
Today, she was wearing a one-piece dress, and it was easy to just pull down the shoulder strap and suckle her breast.
Kerry kneaded her breast while sucking on the nipple. Massaging the large breast made the milk flow better.
"Nnngh! H-how long are you going to drink!"
Sluuurp— Chup, chup—
"Until you admit you were wrong, Saintess."
"That's... Hiiik! I told you I have something to say! When I joined the party, no one welcomed me like that... Why is everyone so happy to see Arwen... Hnngh!"
Sluuuuurp— Sluuuuurp—
Kerry kept sucking on her breast even as she spoke.
I didn't have time to console Victoria in Scandinavia, but I did have enough time to drink some delicious breast milk.
Perhaps because of that, the Saintess's nipples were a little red and swollen, a result of me sucking on them too much.
Because of her swollen nipples, they were now in a constant state of arousal, even when she was just standing still.
[Divine Power has increased by 1.]
This is it! This is why I've been drinking her milk whenever I got the chance.
While drinking the milk, Kerry used Goddess's Eye on the Saintess.
[Saintess's Divine Power - 99 > 89]
The Saintess's Divine Power had dropped. Of course, that lost power hadn't just vanished into thin air.
Kerry now possessed all of it.
'This is a sweet deal, but it'll be a problem if her Divine Power drops so low she can't do her job.'
I had already thought of a way to solve this problem. I was confident there would be no issue even if I drained all of her Divine Power.
"Kerry! Hiiik! I'm telling you, it's unfair!"
The Saintess said, looking down at Kerry sucking her breast.
"Hoo. Your breast milk really is delicious, Saintess."
"I-it's not delicious!"
"You have nothing to feel unfair about, Saintess. Your case is completely different from Arwen's. After all the chaos you caused, you should be grateful we even let you in the party."
"I never asked to join the party!"
"It's all just karma."
Kerry continued to suck greedily on her breast.
"Nnngh! Don't just... don't just suck so relentlessly on the right one!"
"The right one is turning me on today!"
"Ahiing! You're so mean! So mean!"
Sluuurp— Chup, chup—
The Saintess's breasts were soft. The sight of her pink nipples, swollen and red, was incredibly hot.
“Kerry. You... you may have my body... but... Hnngh!”
“?”
“You'll never have my heart!”
“Who said I wanted it? I just like your breast milk, Saintess.”
“You're so meeeaaan!”
Sluuuuurp— Sluuuuuuurp—
As if to provoke her, Kerry sucked harder on her nipple. I can't quit this milk; it's just too savory.
But I was starting to get full.
“That's enough for today!”
Kerry personally helped the Saintess fix her clothes. Breathing heavily, the Saintess remained quietly on Kerry's lap.
The sight of her got me aroused, but there was no more time.
“Well then, let's return to the party.”
The Saintess sniffled and said.
“My Mother will not forgive you...”
“Yeah, whatever. More importantly, if you pull any stupid stunts out of jealousy toward Arwen... you know what'll happen, right? Let's be good without me having to spell it out.”
I had only spoken with a slight edge in my voice, but the Saintess's shoulders trembled as she nodded. Good. Now we're getting somewhere.
Kerry and the Saintess returned to the party separately. Kerry first, then the Saintess.
Once the two of them returned, the party started running through the forest again.
“We're almost there.”
Lina, running at the very front, announced. A village was visible in the distance. It was the closest village to Scandinavia.
There, they would resupply before heading to Astria.
“A village, finally!”
Victoria was visibly delighted. It was because not having to camp outside meant more opportunities to relieve her lust with Kerry.
Kerry just shook his head. Just then, Lina, who was running ahead, spoke.
“That's a relief, Princess.”
“What is?”
“That you don't have to camp outside on your very first day.”
“I was prepared for camping. Besides, I think it would be fun to gather around a campfire with all of you...”
A campfire isn't bad for a bit of atmosphere now and then. But only now and then.
A bed and a warm room are always the best.
The party arrived at the village. It wasn't a very large village, but it seemed to have everything they needed.
Being close to the elven forest, the village seemed to have some demand from tourists.
It was just as Lina's party reached the village entrance.
A group of people appeared, as if they had been waiting. It was a group of priests from the Elena Church, dressed in white.
“It has been a while, O Heroes.”
“?”
The party looked on with confusion at the words of the woman who seemed to be the group's representative.
When it seemed the party didn't remember her, the woman said in a fluster.
“N-no way... Does no one remember me? It's me! Kerry-nim! It's me!”
“...”
I took a closer look at the woman's face. Shit. No matter how I look, I have no idea.
“It's been a while, Head Priestess.”
Of course, my mouth said something else entirely. Thankfully, it seemed she was a priestess.
“As expected of Kerry-nim, you remembered me! What a relief.”
I seriously don't remember. What do I do?
Just as Kerry was struggling to recall the woman before him, Lina spoke nonchalantly.
“Head Priestess Tina, what brings you here?”
Tina? Only then did Kerry remember.
She was the woman who had delivered the goddess's invitation to the sanctuary right after I met Lina.
“It is nothing else. Lady Elena is urgently seeking the heroes.”
So that's what this was about.
The moment he heard the goddess's name, Kerry's face scrunched up as if he'd just seen a pile of shit on the road.
Seeing this, Lina flinched and glanced nervously at Kerry. She was well aware that Kerry held no fond feelings for the goddess.
Lina watched him carefully and asked.
“What should we do, Kerry-nim?”
What should we do? The goddess's business was obvious without even having to ask. It had to be about the Saintess, who was now Kerry's captive.
“Lina-nim. Aren't we busy? If someone has business with us, they should be the one to come see us. Why are they ordering busy people to come and go? Don't you agree?”
The goddess was no longer the one in charge.
