Chapter 247

Aegir POV

The Next Day

Before the sun could rise in the late mornings of winter, we and Natia get preparations ready and gather in front of the mansion .

Celia is in quite the deep sleep .

She wasnt back to her normal self even after sleeping for an entire day and didnt even wake up when I secretly snuck a peek in her room earlier .

Normally, the keen girl would jump up and happily greet me whether its in the middle of the night or early in the morning .

I guess I really overdid it that time when I had her upside down from there .

Ill be more careful next time .

Are you sure? If you leave her behind, Celia-dono will be sad .

That might be so, but bringing her along when shes not capable of fighting well could cause an unrecoverable injury .

Last night, I received a letter from Lintbloom regarding the new weapon and the idea for the chandelier I requested, so I ordered Celia to lead the escort squad and act as the convoy .

If I didnt, she might have broke free of everyone trying to hold her back and chased after me .

If I give her orders, she wont ignore them .

The path between Lintbloom and Rafen is maintained too so she wont encounter bandits .

Black beasts do show up rarely, although she should be fine if the heavily armed escort unit is with her .

Im actually more worried about Alice . Why did I bring her?

Instead of bringing a woman to a battle with orcs, I should have left her back home on the off chance that something bad would happen .

But because of Irijinas insistent recommendation rather she just picked Alice up and put her on the back of her own horse .

Alice-donos magic is really powerful! In a battle with so few people, shell be a great asset to us!!

I also know the power of Alices magic .

She can probably face the enemy, even if they are orcs, and turn them to dust in an instant if she wanted .

Mm, I havent used my magic at all lately so I have a full tank . It should be fine .

Alice is the same as usual, looking down slightly while showing a little enthusiasm .

Her remaining magic energy seems to be linked with the color of her hair, which is glowing a bright red right now .

But you arent the quickest .

My worries persist .

Alices magic is certainly extremely powerful when shes on the attacking side, however Alice herself is still just a simple girl against anybody who manages to get in close unexpectedly, actually shes probably one of the slowest and clumsiest out of all the girls .

Moreover, no matter who the opponent is, its an instant knockout if they touch her asshole .

Shell instantly sink into a swamp of pleasure and, without resisting, easily let herself be violated .

She doesnt like sex as much as me or the other girls but when she gets in the mood and lets me fuck her, she likes it in the ass .

Simply putting an index finger in her asshole makes her drool and howl like a bitch in heat .

Itll be fine Im wearing thicker pants I want to be useful to you sometimes too

Besides, everything will be fine with me protecting you! In fact, with this female knight and female mage, we wont be overcome by mere orcs mggh mgah!! What are you doing!?

Alices hands circled around from behind to cover Irijinas mouth .

Sorry, had a, bad feeling .

Im not sure but I think Alice just did a meritorious deed .

In the end, the ones who will be accompanying me and Natia are Irijina, Alice, Mack, Kroll and Christoph .

Its about time to depart . Still, I can never get used to riding a horse .

Natia says before patting my back .

Being someone who loves animals, Natia isnt used to treating horses like tools and riding them .

The seven of us ride five horses and head to our destination .

Alice rides behind Irijina on the same horse while Natia rides behind me on the same horse .

Natia hasnt ridden a horse before but she apparently understands the feelings of the horse so she doesnt think its anything difficult .

Naturally, I offered a horse for her but Schwartz got in the way .

He would neigh and stamp his hooves menacingly whenever she tried to ride the other horse .

Left without much choice, I put her on Schwartz behind me and then he contently bobs his head up and down .

Im sure this perverted horse just wanted to taste the feeling of the ass of the first elf hes ever seen .

Hahaha! Stop, stop, it tickles when you lick me that much .

Schwartz shows affection by licking Natia while the elf laughs happily, trying to brush him away with her hand .

Despite having such a large body, this horse is quite needy . He seems to be treating me like his mother . Its like he feels angry whenever I try to mount another horse because his mother is being taken away .

Natia gently strokes Schwartzs back .

is that so?

Yeah, us elves can understand the words and feelings of animals . Of course, that doesnt include evil monsters or irrational beasts .

Thats not it .

You can understand his words but that doesnt mean you can see through to the depths of his heart .

I can tell though .

Schwartz is acting so sweet to deceive her .

He doesnt see her as his mother, he just wants her to think hes cute so that he can target her holes when he sees an opening .

Like Ill let you do that . Im the one who will take her holes .

Schwartz neighs loudly .

? What are you talking about?

Its nothing, lets just depart quickly .

I would hate it if Leopolt finds me and starts rambling on about something else .

Leopolt-dono says To jump into danger and leave your own territory with but a few subordinates is an admirable thing to do . You have my utter respect . as a compliment to you! He also praises you by saying Its something I cant do . Doing all that for a single woman without thinking of the consequences is impressive . .

Without replying, I grab Irijinas breasts strongly .

That hurts!!

I knead them and pinch her nipples with my fingers before letting go .

Just thinking about his words gets me irritated .

Adolph was also told later about what was going on and could only sigh, telling me to at least get the elves to trade us some useful medicines while Im at it .

Hes an idiot too, look at this roster .

Alice is an introvert and cant negotiate with them, Mack doesnt speak, and Irijina and I know nothing about doing business .

Kroll shouldnt be able to discuss about business and Christoph is Christoph .

Time to depart!!

Thinking about this more will only annoy me .

I turn around to check if Natia is properly holding on and see that her face is all red .

Shes looking back and forth between me and Irijina and seems to be speechless .

Y-y-your breasts awawawawa .

Breasts? What about them?

Dont tell me the woman who creates aphrodisiacs is blushing over seeing breasts fondled .

In any case, things wont progress if we chat about it . Lets just walk forward .

A man just grabbed a womans breasts! I-Ive never seen that before

Natia is mumbling something as I get her to ride behind me and urge the horse forward .

Schwartz is rocking his body as he walks so I try to get him to stop by letting out a big fart .

But then I get punched in the back of the head by Natia .

We head south from Rafen and then proceed west after reaching Zan Dora to enter the group of city states .

The elfs village is located close to the center of the primordial forest and its easiest to enter from the southern bank of the Teries river on the side of the city states .

Since we arent accompanied by a carriage, our travel speed is extremely fast .

It didnt take more than a few days for us to reach the boundary of the city states and then decided to proceed on foot from there .

A small group like this shouldnt alert them to any suspicious activity and we should be able to pass through smoothly .

If bandits dont appear then we wont come across monsters either . Peace is nice but its a bit boring . Natia, could you tell me more about the elves?

geez, if you promise not to fool around, I will .

Natia says with a sullen expression .

On the way here, I put Natia in front of me because I thought she couldnt see the scenery if she stayed behind me, but then I couldnt help playing with her ears waving around in my face . The first time I pinched them lightly, the second time I blew on them, and the third time I bit them softly .

As a result, she went back to riding behind me and I was left with a red hand mark on my cheek .

Of course . I promise .

Kroll and the others also seemed to be curious and lined up their horses with me .

Irijina is in the front singing a marching song loudly . Ill leave her alone .

Alice who is riding behind her is hey now, her hand is reaching behind her and down her pants, plus shes grinding her hips strangely, dont tell me shes doing that .

Fumu I think Ive said this before but no elves leave the village besides me . It wont make for an interesting story .

Despite saying that, Natia told me about other various things .

My village is right in the middle of the primordial forest . Its a little hotter than here and is very humid well, its not a big difference I guess . Its a place where there are rows of giant trees over 100 meters tall and rampantly growing undergrowths .

Heeh such large trees are there?

Christoph expresses his amazement .

Stupidly tall trees dont exist in the forests of the central plains .

I heard there are some trees like that here and there in the Empire I guess they grow pretty big when its hot .

I take a peek at Natias chest .

Or maybe not .

We choose the biggest tree amongst all of them and then make our home there . If were too close to the ground, small poisonous insects or snakes or even the problematic orcs were going to face are too numerous and annoying .

She continues explaining .

It isnt just our village . The other elf villages often do the same and choose to create their homes in giant trees .

Im looking forward to seeing a pretty elf lady .

I mentioned it yesterday too, but we dont welcome anybody to our tree, not even elves from other villages . For humans like you, there definitely wont be a warm reception waiting . Ill try and talk to them though .

Mmm, Natia is truly a good girl .

Its the best when a woman not only has good looks but also a nice personality .

Dont say something so embarrassing!

I accidentally spoke my mind .

Natia blushes and yells at me, but that only makes her more cute .

Are the other elves as pretty as you?

Christoph is coming at her with flattery as well .

Hm? The elves living in the forest all look similar to me .

Natia doesnt notice the compliment and lets the comment pass .

Schwartz shows his teeth and laughs at Christoph .

To be tempted by sex is to become foolish .

I dont know what Kroll is mumbling .

I heard from Lola about you, how on the night you drank the aphrodisiac you sniffed her ass endlessly while she stood against the window .

You were just like a middle-aged man in your persistency .

Going from the south, well be passing through more wetlands than forest . Both the humidity and temperature will be high, and I guess it wont be a very comfortable environment for us but there are elves who like that kind of place and live there too .

The wetland regions with high humidity and temperature is definitely unpleasant to say the least .

Lots of poisonous bugs buzz around too, making it worse just like summer .

I dont know what they call themselves but we just call them marsh elves or black elves . To be clear, theyre both derogatory terms but we dont have any other words to name them .

So stuff like that happens in the elf world too .

Ive said before that us elves are indifferent to those of other villages, didnt I? On the other hand, we treat any kind of trouble like minor harassment and blood is never shed . but its a different story with the black elves . Theyre way too unlike us our living areas are separated so we dont normally encounter each other, but if we somehow clash-

She sighs and buries her face in my back .

There have been battles in the past where lives were taken . There have been times where the number of casualties were huge .

The elf world seems harsh too . How scary .

Natia glares at Christoph who jokes around casually .

Stupid, thats why youre not popular with women .

Youre all elves so is there a way to avoid killing each other maybe its not our place to say anything .

Natia smiles bitterly, commenting how humans are just as unreasonable .

Of course we try to talk it out whenever a fight breaks out, but it never goes well . The black elves are savage .

It doesnt seem like we should continue talking about this topic any longer .

There is something I want to ask no matter what though .

About those black elves what do they look like?

If these barbaric elves living in the marsh look like a goblins head stuck on an elfs body, I would be fine allying with the elves in Natias village and eliminating them in the future .

Their faces and bodies arent that different from ours, except theyre stronger and move slower . Also, apparently many of the girls have indecently large breasts and asses .

They have large breasts, you say!?

Cristophs voice overlaps with mine .

Schwartz also cries out happily .

Not good, if they look like the other elves but with larger breasts, I cant just back Natias elves then .

And also the color of their skin is dark brown or black . Thats the reason we call them black elves .

Dark brown, you say!?

I turn around instinctively .

Who was it that made that deep voice just now?

Now that I look, Christoph also seems surprised, and Mack is silent as usual with his mouth in the shape of the character , dont tell me that I was the one who did that .

That reminds me, Mack kept choosing the healthy-looking girls with tanned skin whenever he went to the brothel .

This isnt good, the image I once had in my head of the black elves having goblin heads has now changed to a group of beautiful elves with tanned skin fighting with their large tits bouncing around .

I wouldnt stand a chance against an army like that .

Theres no other choice but to surrender without resistance and lower my pants .

With that said, we havent made contact with the black elves in a while . Right now, the problem is with the horde of orcs .

Natia lightly hits my back as if to conclude the topic of black elves .

We arrive at the port on the northern coast of the Teries river .

After paying the ferryman of the boat a little more than one silver, he sends us across .

The ferryman thanks us in an exaggerated manner before leering at the hooded Natia and Alice .

What do you want with me!?

Being so upstream, the width of even a river as large as the Teries river is narrow, so the time it takes to travel from one side to the other on boat is extremely short .

Not as much needs to be tolerated before it was okay to kick the ferryman into the river .

The man flowed slowly downstream while the boat floated towards the opposite shore . Alice seemed deeply interested but Natia was used to seeing it being an elf adventurer .

She rests her chin on the table listlessly and complains .

No humans lived on the south coast during my ancestors time . It was after a city and a port was built here that humans started coming here for things like herbs and jewels . I really want to do something about that .

Even if you say that, its a foreign nations matter . Are there any humans who meddle with your village?

Natia shakes her head .

No, there arent any humans who can even reach our village . If they go straight ahead without knowing the path, theyll come across bottomless swamps, a nest of poisonous snakes and the dwelling of giant spiders .

Thats why the price of the potion made with the ingredients from this forest is so high .

The time I have trouble is when I leave my village to go to the plains . Its such a pain when I bump into exploring humans and they find out Im an elf

They would definitely ask her to guide them to her village after all .

Or this is what overwhelmingly happens the most, but when I do and theyre already dead or when its just about time to depart and they find out about me all of a sudden, I just lose motivation .

Please continue guiding us, we wont become unpleasant objects .

That way is a shortcut but the bush is thick and the ground is damp . Its better if we go through the animal trail on the right .

Our pace dropped significantly after we entered the forest on our horses .

But we should still be several times faster than normal if we listen to Natia .

Further down the road, we encountered a pack of wolves once .

Wolves huh, everyone check your weapons .

Right . Its skewering time!!FlamesJust become the rust on my sword . Uwaaaaaaah!

Christoph is already done before we even get attacked by the wolves .

He fell off his horse when he tried to draw his sword hastily .

Natia holds us off while we prepare for battle, then stands in front of the pack of wolves .

Dont worry, leave it to me . hey there, we are strong . I know you are hungry but youre in for some pain if you challenge us . Go and look for deer or boars like you always do .

She approaches the largest wolf of the pack, which is probably the boss, and talks to it .

When she does, the wolf bares its fangs and growls before whimpering and turning tail .

The other wolves naturally follow the lead wolf and disappear into the forest .

Those wolves were just hungry and couldnt distinguish what we were . If I just teach them that were strong, they wont challenge us .

Her expression of relief is probably because we could settle the situation without having to kill the wolves .

So it was true that you can talk with animals .

Of course . Elves live with the forest . They can at least communicate with the living things inhabiting the place .

Schwartz suddenly stops moving .

What is it, go forward already .

When I flick his ears with my finger, Natia gets angry and pulls on my ear from behind .

Ow, that hurts .

Gosh! Dont do something so mean! Hes scared after seeing that wolf from earlier . Look, its saying mommy, Im scared!

She dismounts from behind me and holds Schwartzs head in her arms, gently stroking him as well .

There, there, its not scary anymore . The wolf is gone and Im here with you . Youre such a scaredy cat despite having such a big body .

Natia talks sweetly while continuing to soothe Schwartz .

The horse rubs its nose against her meager chest .

Youre mistakenNatia .

Theres no way this guy would be scared of some wolf .

He would charge forward to stamp a bear or a black beast to death .

This pervert of a horse is lying to you by using the fact that you understand animals to get you to be affectionate with him .

Im unwilling to admit it but I understand what Schwartz is thinking way more than Natia does .

This guy can only see Natias ass, breasts and the hole within her pants .

Look, hes making such a slovenly face and his dick is getting bigger too .

Kyah! Geez, youre such a needy child .

As Schwartz neighs happily, I give his stomach a nice hard kick with my heel .

Get a move on, you perverted horse .

And so we finally reached the giant tree where her village is .

Its huge

Christoph looks up the tree dumbfoundedly .

Its not just big, it looks taller than 150 meters .

Ive never seen anything like this before .

Fueh

Alice and Irijina also look surprised .

Natia seems proud .

This tree was around even before my mother was born so Im sure its over a thousand years old . To us, this tree is our village .

Natia tells us to wait here before easily climbing up the tree .

Looking carefully, I can see stairs attached to the trunk of the tree, which is practically like one enormous building .

However, a shrill voice from above cried out before she even climbed up ten meters .

What are you thinking!?

Natia flinches as she stops moving .

You were wandering about during such a critical time and now youve even brought humans back to the village you should be ashamed of yourself!!

I-I can explain .

Youre not listening to me!

The owner of the voice was standing imposingly on a branch higher than where Natia was .

The elfs height appears to be about the same as Natia and even her ass and breasts are the about the same size .

Her hair is a little darker green and it flowed all the way down to her waist . Her sharp eyes tell me shes quite strong-willed .

On both sides of the woman who puts her hands on her waist are two girls of a slightly smaller build who also reproaches Natita .

An elf who leaves the forest cant be called a proper elf!

Or did you become the bride of some lowly human and came to introduce your husband to us .

I speak up on instinct .

Thats right!

Of course thats not it, you idiot! Ahem, but I will introduce them over here, we have

Natia throws a fruit at me before clearing her throat and introducing me to the women above her .

However, those women interrupt her .

Save it . I am Felteris, this villages strongest warrior and a female warrior of the proud elves! You humans should feel honored to learn my name .

Felteris puffs out her chest and declares her name to us boldly, while I just couldnt look away from her beautiful, white thighs .
