Chapter 16: Streamside Battle

I couldn’t stop shuddering for some odd reason. At first it was just my fingers, but now my whole body couldn’t stop shivering from this unknown fright.

“Huuuuurrr!!”

Due to the uncontrollable urge to sway left and right, I avoided two deadly bludgeons coming from the muscular Kobold that aimed to maim my arms.

“Yeeeek!”

Seeing its pride attack easily avoided by my sheer luck, the monster released a strong middle kick, but my crying instincts made me dodge that stomp of death, just as if was dancing on a rhythm that this monster couldn’t fathom.

*Boog!*

—That shivering excitement saved my life for the third time! Holy!

This perfect opportunity did not passed unnoticeable, and I immediately snatched the sword hanging on my back. I thrust forward directly, straight to the monster’s torso, inflicting a mortal wound.

*Voom!*

That accumulating wind magic generating on my sword tore the monster’s flesh inside, and finishing my slash upward, the kobold warrior— who has a substantially larger build compare to mine— was easily shaved in half!

Followed by a loud *thud*, the monster fell on the ground.

I did it… I defeated a kobold warrior by myself…

The results of my endeavor made me breath a heavy sigh. Although I won, it was merely through the guidance of my luck and this sword. Still, it’s not actually a bad thing to feel happy about my accomplishments from time to time.

What I’ve learned on this little adventure so far: Monsters like kobold prefer to hunt in packs. According to Remi, because they are usually seen walking in big groups, these monsters are classified as C rank monsters by the guild. Three ranks above my current adventurer rank.

Our party continued the journey, under the agreement that we will flee at the first sign of danger.

With Meles as our vanguard and Remi as our rear supporter, journeying through this monster infested forest had been a piece of cake. Well, the role of leader unfortunately fell on my shoulders, as I’m the type of guy to give out orders.

Surprisingly, the three of us are quite proficient in wind magic, though mine is more on the lines of a “cheat”. Since I cannot use a spell of my own, relying on this sword Gordon passed onto me was quite the blessing.

After traveling with Meles and Remi for nearly five days, it made me rethink my usefulness. I could understand that everybody has their strong point, but traveling together in this quest made me think I’m excess baggage somehow, even though I’m the leader.

I mean, Meles is an excellent front line attacker and could massacre a group of monsters on her own, while Remi's cooking skills were essential to our survival. I fear that if she isn’t here, Meles and I would've already ate a deadly mushroom of some sort. Not to mention, she’s capable enough to defend herself on top of those gigantic boobs.

In short, I feel like I have no role in this party other than a mere leecher. That’s why I’m trying my hardest just to satisfy my manly pride. And though I dislike killing, it’s better than endangering these two girls.

“Haa…”

Wondering how my two companions were doing, I turned around.

Seems like they just finished cleaning up the smaller ones.

“Kansouke’s done already?”

“By sheer luck, yes.”

“I do not think so. Kansouke won because he’s skilled.”

Meles approached me with a praise as she strapped the two crimson daggers on her waist. The two short swords that she previously used before were kept inside our messy backpack. When I said “messy”, it’s mainly because Remi’s been collecting various stuff on this journey.

If our horse could complain, it’ll grumble endlessly because of back pain.

Well, I don’t blame her. Although Remi came with us on her own volition, she still needs to make a living. And while I plan to share most of the profits I will get from Gordon with her, that would be when we actually finished this quest first.

In the meantime, I brought out our map.

“So if we continue west for more than half a day, I think we might be able to find this cave within the waterfall.”

“How does Kansouke know?” Remi inquired with a dubious face.

At first glance, I guess there’s no way you could trust the words of a guy like me with utter confidence in a single vibe.

It’s true!

But due to my curiosity on meeting a dryad, I played in the mountains on my own back when I was young. That adventure turned out to be quite the useless one though, but I did learn a few tricks here and there.

“Because of the speeding water current, I would assume were getting closer to the source. If we just follow this water stream like we do, we’d reach our destination in no time flat. That is, if we don’t encounter any more monster along the way.”

“I see… That does makes sense.”

Yes, at least make me sound intelligent once in a while.

“Now then, let’s continue!”

“Umu.”

Following our plan that we just discussed, we walked alongside the forest water stream.

Bringing a horse this deep in the forest was not such a good idea. Because of the leveling terrain, having one accompany us was starting to hinder our movements. Even I have to tippy-toe on some areas.

“Lets form a camp for now.”

Sensing the rising wind in the air, I made a decision as our party’s leader.

I glanced skyward.

There was still no sign of the blue moon, yet orange sky had already invaded our borders.

“I agree.” Meles quickly backed me up while glancing at the same sky.

“We couldn’t really move much with the horse anyways.”

After saying that, Remi guided the horse to a nearby tree trunk and tied its rein around it. Meles quickly disappeared to scout the surrounding area, while I grabbed some nearby wood to form a campfire.

As usual, the three of us immediately performed our assigned task.

While we were resting our exhausted souls in front of the burning fire, I used that opportunity to explain what I had thought in mind.

“From tomorrow onward, I’d like to continue on my own. I’d appreciate it if the two of you could wait for me here.”

As expected, the two of them were startled, especially Meles.

“Why?”

“Did you not see? We could not travel any further with this horse around.”

I blamed the clueless horse, who was peacefully resting on it’s place.

“Then I’ll come with you.”

“No, I don’t want you to leave Remi here by herself. And don’t even think about suggesting that we go without you.”

“Muuu…”

Before she could even retort my statement, I had already denied her.

Yes, Meles is indeed a lot stronger than the two of us combined, but leaving one of them alone here would weigh too much in my mind.

So it’s better if I go by myself.

“Fine, I’ll stay with Remi. But if Kansouke doesn’t return by nightfall, we’ll leave this horse to it’s fate and follow you…”

I smiled and wiped the tears building up at the corner of her blood red eyes. To make a girl as cute as Meles cry, I really am a sinful man.

“How about you, Remi? No words of encouragement at least?”

“Do what you want… You won’t listen to what we’ll say anyways. *grumble* Trying to act cool.”

Ah, my heart.

Such a lovely reaction coming from a worried maiden. That was really bad of me. But it’s not like I’m going to my death. Although me and her are not exactly on good terms, Tersa wouldn’t allow such things.

-Right, Tersa?-

-……………-

Such a lazy slacker. She must be sleeping, so I decided not to bother her.

“Well, it’s better if we all retire for the night now,” I suggested.

The two stood up and prepared a layer of sheeting on the ground. Although they followed my instructions as usual, they left an impression as if they were mad. Nothing I can do about it.

I stood up from the fire myself and stretched my arms. I sat on an empty trunk near the fire and leaned my backside against a tree. Once I’ve decided that it’s comfortable enough, I unfastened the leather holding my sword, and placed it within arm’s reach.

Sleeping like this had been a hobby for me lately.

However a usual distraction prevented me from completely shutting my eyes. Meles bristled beside me, hinting me to do that.

So the great benevolent me of course, hugged the quiet Meles and kissed her hair.

“Sleep well.”

“Mhmm…”

As I thought, that wasn’t enough. So I pulled the dark strands of her hair aside, and pressed my lips on her forehead, between her beautiful horns.

“Go to sleep.”

“Ehmm… Goodnight.”

Meles happily went to sleep afterwards. Pulling another set of sheeting, Remi covered Meles’ legs from the harsh chill, and also, from my hungry eyes.

Remi shot me a wide glance, but she did not say anything. She did not mention a word about it.

“What~? You want a kiss too~?”

Her cheeks were turning red after hearing my taunting tone. Soon, her cheeks were awfully dyed red because of embarrassment.

“I’m… I’m not a child…”

Instead of sleeping like Meles, she kept me company in silence. If I didn’t know any better, I would jump to her like a dog in heat right now.

But alas~ Was she perhaps waiting for me to sleep first?

……………………………………………………..

It had been a battle of silence.

The lovely whistling of Meles’ breath resounded in our ears in that quiet forest.

I did not mention a single word about it. I just stayed put on my place, while stealing some glances at this girl whose expression is dyed in embarrassment.

*fidget fidget*

*fidget fidget*

I almost want to laugh, yet I have a bad feeling at the same time.

Slowly, Remi’s working her way to me. For some unknown reasons.

For her sake, I closed my eyes and played it like a fool. As if I didn’t see or hear anything, I pretended to be asleep.

*fidget fidget*

The fidgeting noise was getting closer and rougher.

And without creating any other noise after that, my closed eyes perceived a feeling of dread, approaching. Immediately, that unknown fear was replaced by a sudden soft sensation spiced by the arousing smell of female skin.

“I know you’re awake… So you can stop pretending…” Remi said in a faint whisper.

“Well, you got me.”

“Y…You can touch.”

She grabbed my wrists and placed it on her chest, motivating me to do something. From those thoughts alone, my sword had fully awaken.

“A…lready? Just touch… Okay?”

“Of course…”

I dipped my head downward on that golden treasury, inhaling her warm scent. And with a simple brush of my fingers, she wiggled on top of me.

“Shhh… Don’t be noisy, or do you want Meles to hear?”

“That’s… foul play.”

I started on her belly, her waist, and finally, her breast. I was fondling her softly, as I fought the overwhelming instinct to fill her hole with my seed.

Touching them bare was phenomenal, but seeking them under the fine lines of her corset just further intensifies my burning arousal.

Remi was fighting back the onslaught of desire. With every loving pinch of my palms, she would bite on her lips.

“Aaaahhhnn…“

Eventually, the sweetness of her breath produced a moan. A delicious moan.

She blindly reached to my head and pressed my face on her nape. Her actions urged to move upward, to caress her butt with my sheathed sword.

Using my fingertips, I guided that lewdness deep inside her. Slowly, slowly, slowly, I circled her swollen nub and her elbows gave away.

She was tightly grasping the edge of my pants, resisting, but these hands of mine blessed by God coerced her into spreading her legs wide. Her own body was unable to heed whatever instructions she’s giving out.

“Mhhnngggg…”

I was given a sign. I knew it was getting closer. And at last, she let it loose!

“Mnnnmmmhh……!”

Yet instead of a delicious cry, only a muffled scream was heard. She bit on her finger so hard, she’s basically chewing on her own skin.

“Are you satisfied now?”

At the moment those sinful words left my lips, Remi twisted around and knelt. She focused her gaze at that certain part of my body. You know, that one part that grows when you get excited.

Remi’s face was even more drowned in embarrassment, or maybe it’s on the lines of excitement.

“It wouldn’t be good for Kansouke if it ends like that, right?”

Crap. Remi’s unexpectedly brave today.

Convulsing, she slowly reached to unzip my pants.

And voila! After many nights of solitude, my sword has finally revealed itself! Ready to be sheathed, ready to be sharpened, its aching to do some action!

“Try it without using your hands.”

“Mhm.”

Remi nodded at my instructions. She positioned her hands on my thigh, and with only her mouth like I said, she began to lick.

Her panting accompanied by her experimental tongue makes me jiggle on pure pleasure.

“There, lick it good.”

I pushed the golden strands of her hair and set it aside at the back of her ear, while she coats the tip of my sword with her obscene spit.

“Now, swallow it.”

Just like a big mouthful, she pushed and pressed it deeper inside her mouth. Her passive obedience inflamed my lust even further, causing me to pump my hips in desperate motions.

“Nggnh… Its so hot… Mnnm… I feel like… my mouth’s burning up.”

Remi acted like she would choke, but that did not halt the lewd movements of her mouth. Her innocence towards the actual thing causes her to touch my sensitive spots, accidentally.

And an even more surprise came for me. She trapped my sword between her mounds, giving me that sensational feeling to be submerged under a mountain of pillows.

“This… is not counted as hands, right?”

I can only nod. Those beautiful emerald eyes pleading me into consent! I can do nothing to deny them.

Her mouth and and boobs were already in motion. Traces of that purifying seed were evidently spewing at that tiny opening of my sword.

I arched and stood up. I pressed and held Remi’s head, and with one last violent thrust, I came. My sword pumped that blinding light deep inside her mouth, feeding her everything I had.

“Whoo~”

After satisfying my excitement, I pulled out, and bunches of steaming white fluid cascaded from her mouth. She caught tidbits of it with her hands and swallowed them again.

“I’m sorry, I got a little excited.”

Her lewd actions rerose my sword, attaining a profound level of excitement. There’s no turning back now, we’re gonna have to do it all the way.

“Pfffft…”

?!

A soft snicker came from Meles’ direction. But when we cock our heads to look, she was still fast asleep.

She “was” sleeping, right?
