Chapter 4: Homecoming and Reunion
It takes nine hours one way from the royal capital to the former Soderholm territory.
Since the sunset in the former Soderholm territory is usually around 21:30, they would not be stranded at the port on the way if they took the 15:00 flight.
Christo and Melvina got up in the late afternoon, hurriedly packed their bags, and left the "Muma's Cradle" in time for the 15:00 flight.
“The wind is blowing from the former Soderholm territory toward the royal capital this season, so the wyverns will be severely depleted. We had to change carriage twice on the way. The first was beyond the sea of trees in the northern part of the royal capital, and the second was in Baltic, a city in the Frontier Count Netzel's territory."
They headed down the street in the late-April afternoon sun toward the southern gate of the royal capital.
Next to him, Melvina, with her beautiful blonde hair straightened, was walking with a large suitcase in tow.
"I'm looking forward to traveling with Christo-san!"
Melvina smiles at him from under her light green wide-brimmed hat.
Her lips, which were lightly painted red, were lustrous.
Melvina was wearing a white blouse and an under-bust dress of the same color as the hat. The fabric of the dress started below the bust and the skirt extended from the waist.
The dress had yellow buttons on the abdomen, which were designed to tighten the woman's abdomen like a corset and enhance her figure.
Although the noble women of the royal capital are all plump, as they have no trouble eating, it is difficult for them to have the same beauty around their abdomen as their plump, man-loving legs and chest.
Under bust dresses like the one worn by Melvina have become popular recently.
"Hey, look at the two of them walking over there."
"Oh my, what a beautiful couple!"
"But the blond girl seems to be a little young... maybe a brother and sister."
"They don't look alike at all. Their hair color and eye color are completely different."
"Hey. Isn't that blonde girl over there really cute?"
“She's got smooth hair and a fair complexion. I think she's my favorite. Her clothes are also very sexy and her skirt is very short."
“Oh, she's really cute. I just came from the countryside, and it's a sight for the eyes......"
"Idiot, look carefully. She's with a guy."
The streets in the late afternoon are filled with young men and women of noble birth, due in part to the safety of the royal capital.
Christo is also an eye-catcher, but today it seemed that Melvina was getting more attention than that.
The fact that her hair, which is usually tied up on either side of her head, is down and blowing in the wind in a natural way makes her look a couple of years older on the outside, and the eyes of men on the street are drawn to her legs, which are wrapped in black tights underwear extending from her knee-length skirt.
In addition, the way she walked, instead of her usual footstep assassin-like gait, was postured and wide-legged, easily attracting the attention of those around her.
It was good that his wife was attractive, but Christo was not calm inside.
(Melvina……Are you doing it on purpose? No, I don't think that's the case with this girl. She must be uplifted by her trip with me and become defenseless.)
Unable to resist the men who were giving Melvina lustful looks, Christo hugged her thin shoulders wrapped in her blouse and held up her parasol. Since Christo was walking on the side, this greatly blocked her view from passersby.
"Christo-san?"
"We have to be careful not to get sunburned."
He was aware that he was doing something small, so he made an appropriate excuse.
Melvina didn't look into it deeply, and simply gave him an attractive smile.
"Thank you"
"No, I'm just doing what a man should do."
“Still, thank you...... Ah."
"What's wrong?"
"Umm, well, you know,......."
After looking around, Melvina raised her heels and put her mouth close to Christo's ear.
“Christo-san's, from yesterday, it just started to drip."
"――――"
"Ah, it didn't come out in large quantities, just a little from the back... Maybe my underwear got wet."
As she says this, she puts her hand around her navel, which is covered by her skirt.
"――――"
What's going on in her vagina under that hand?
Even though it's the main street in the daytime, he can't help but fantasize.
Between those slender hips and slender legs lies Melvina's vaginal cavity.
And the vaginal cavity is filled with the cloudy liquid that he ejaculated inside her last night and is stirring.
"...That's a big problem. Shall we stop at a washroom somewhere?"
“There are none in the city. Don't worry, I can stand it."
"No, no, it's nasty, isn't it? Then let's go into the windbreak when we get to the port. Luckily, I've brought a plastic plug with me, and I'll block your entrance so it won't leak."
"Eh, b-but"
"No problem. It's a long way to the other side, so don't hold back."
"It's not a matter of whether I hold back or not"
Melvina said so in a panic, but she felt strength in Christo's fingers as he hugged her shoulders, and stopped protesting any further.
Afterward, Christo escorted her down the road.
× × ×
"C-Christo-san, don't! We are outside! We might be noticed!"
"There's no one around. I've also put up a barrier that blocks vision with rune magic."
He took Melvina deep into the windbreak that stretches around the port.
When they reached a position where they could hear people coming and going in the distance, Christo took Melvina's suitcase from her and put her hand on the trunk of an oak tree that was growing nearby.
He then stroked her shapely ass through the top of her skirt.
"D-don't"
"It can't be helped"
He sticks to Melvina's back to sandwich her with the trunk of the tree and his own body.
She held her breath and stopped resisting as he rubbed his erect penis against her buttocks through his slacks.
“It smells really good. Your hair is so smooth. I wish you could have felt the same way about me, having my feelings for you stirred up the whole time we were walking down the street."
"U-um. I'll use my mouth. It might stain my dress and underwear."
"I won't do it too hard, it'll be fine."
He buried his face in her golden hair as he said that.
The sweet scent of roses filled his nostrils as he pressed the tip of his nose behind her ear and breathed in as much as he could.
He pressed his penis against her, rubbed her modest breasts with his left hand, and put his right hand under her skirt ――inserting it into the gap between her panties.
The feeling of the smooth plain of her lower abdomen.
Melvina's secret part can only be reached by inserting his hand quite a bit.
"Take off your tights and underwear."
"......"
"Melvina?"
"Yes……"
Melvina's body moves.
She thrusts her hips back, puts her hands into her skirt, and removes her underwear.
As she pulls down her underwear, her blonde hair sways under his nose and she lets out a lusty sigh. When she thrust her buttocks back, his erect penis was pressed against her buttocks, which aroused feelings of degradation even more.
"Um, we have time for the airship. Hurry up."
Melvina who says so is also excited, her eyes are moist and her cheeks are red.
She lifted up her skirt and stuck out her white peach buttocks.
"I'm going to put it in."
"......Yes."
The penis is buried in the hot moisture.
He knew from Melvina's expression that she didn't really mind, but her pussy was so soggy that he thought all of last night's semen might have poured out.
"Ah, ah, haa, ah, i-it's, good!"
Melvina leans down to rub the top of her head against the tree trunk.
When he thrusts the penis vigorously, a sound echoed through the trees.
"Look, you have to keep your voice down. I'm only blocking the view, but they might hear your voice."
“Nhh!? ......, ......, ――――ah."
Melvina covers her mouth with her hand.
To her who resisted pleasure with her eyebrows, insertion and extraction are repeated in an irregular rhythm.
Thump*, thump*, thump*, thump*――――.
"Hii......, ......ah......, ......, no...... nhh......, ――――"
He brushes her blonde hair away with the tip of his nose and nibbles her little ears with his teeth.
At the same time, he found the clitoris with his right hand and pinched it with his thumb and middle finger.
"Ah!"
"Voice"
“Nhh………… nhh~~~~ ……, ……, fuu, fuu”
"You're so cute when you hold back from something that feels good. That makes me want to be even meaner to you."
"W-What are you...? ――――Ooh!?"
Thud*――――.
The erect penis is pushed into the vagina to the root.
The erect penis was buried in the hot muck, leaving only a small portion at the base, and the tip was tightly attached to the deeper entrance. Melvina, who had been in a position that thrust her buttocks out, opened her eyes and arched her back. He put his arms around her and thrust up and gouged her buttocks from below as she tried to escape.
"Ah....... kahyu..."
"Cum, Melvina."
He whispered in her ear.
Melvina's eyes were distorted and her body trembled.
And,
“........., ......, ......, ――――, ......"
She suppressed her voice and climaxed.
The entrance tightened rhythmically around the base of his penis, and a thick stream of cum trickled down his ball sack.
"Kuh, it's coming out!"
Spurt*, spuuuuuurt*!
Spuuuuurt*, spuuuuuuurt*!
Spuuuurt*! Spuuuuuuurt*!
Spurt*, spuuuuuurt*!
Spuuuuuuuuurt*!
"Nhh... ah, cough*, cough*"
"Oops, I'm sorry. Are you okay?"
"Y-yes..."
Melvina nodded her head while holding her mouth.
In the meantime, hot liquid is poured into the back of her vagina.
While gently stroking her white lower abdomen, he keeps filling her inside.
"Fuu. I'll make sure to put a lid on it so it won't leak this time."
He pulls a plastic plug out of his pocket.
It was one of the toys he had bought when he and Patricia were having their kinky sex life, and it was meant to be inserted into the vaginal cavity to seal the semen inside, just as it was now.
The plug is shaped like a quail egg with a circular lid.
If Melvina's vaginal cavity is a baby's mouth, this plug is like a pacifier.
Christo crouched under Melvina's buttocks.
Her white peach buttocks were large enough to reveal the strong muscles that lay hidden beneath the subcutaneous fat that is typical of women. He split open the cleavage between her firm buttocks with both hands.
Squelch* ――a sticky sound rang out, and the buttocks split open.
The color of the skin was dark pink from below her tailbone, and darker near her anus. The defecation hole squirmed and loosened in time with her breathing.
And below the asshole was a secret hole overflowing with white.
Christo placed the plastic plug and pushed it into the vulva.
"Nhh..."
"Okay, I've plugged it. It won't leak."
"Haa... yes"
What was the "yes" for?
Melvina leaned against the trunk of the tree, unable to make proper judgments as her brain was invaded by pleasure.
(My semen has strong aphrodisiac properties. It doesn't seem to work so well on Melvina for some reason......)
"Is it too tight for you?"
"I-I'm fine… Ah, Christo-san."
"What's wrong?"
Without answering her question, Melvina turned around, knelt down and stretched out her hand to the penis that had finished ejaculating.
The white hand gently wraps the dirty pole that has become cloudy and muddy.
"...Hamu."
"Ooff"
Melvina opened her small red-painted mouth and took the semi-erect penis into her mouth.
The sensitive penis is made to swim in the lukewarm soggy liquid, which is cooler than the temperature of the vagina.
Squelch*, squelch*, suck*, suck*, slurp*, slurp*――――.
While gently rubbing the ball sack, Melvina sucks up the semen remaining in the urethra, treats the penis to encourage ejaculation, and licks the dirty sole clean.
"Uoohh..."
"Suck*, suck*, slurp*, nfuu... fuu, suck*."
In the forest, where only the chirping of birds echoes, the sound of sucking drowns out the sounds of nature.
Eventually, when the penis was fully erect again, Melvina sucked up the penis and removed her mouth.
"We have to go. The airship is waiting."
"That's right. …It's not good. My erection will be exposed even from the top of my slacks."
"Fufu. I'm glad you were satisfied."
Melvina staggers a little and grabs the handle of the suitcase.
"Let's do it in the airship"
"It's dangerous if we rampage too much. It's supported by a wyvern, so if we're not careful, we might be thrown into the sea of trees."
“I see. Then we'll just have to put up with the flirting."
"Fufu, please do so."
Christ collects the rune stones floating in the air.
Then he heard voices faintly calling the names of Christo and Melvina from the port.
The two hurriedly jumped out of the shadows of the trees and ran up the woods toward the port.
× × ×
Inside the airship, the room temperature is considerably cooler.
Christo put on his black school jacket, and Melvina put on a thick, daisy-colored shawl. The view through the small window soon turned to the green of the sea of trees, and the two of them turned away from the window to examine some of the letters of request that had been addressed to Christo.
"It seems that the forest north of the pioneer village is overrun by monsters."
Christo read the five sealed letters at once, muttering to himself.
"There are stories of werewolves, wendigos, blue ghosts, and even witches who kidnap people."
"Oh dear"
"I understand werewolves and witches, but I don't know what the others are."
"Wendigos are a subspecies of the giant race. They are mainly found in cold regions such as the snowy mountains. They are between three and five meters long. They have white fur covering their entire body, protecting their pale skin underneath. It is said that those who eat human flesh in the mountains mutate into wendigos, but this is only a myth. Their blood vessels are arranged differently and the structure around their respiratory organs is also different. Wendigos have air bladder functions similar to those of birds and dragons to allow fresh air to reach every nook and cranny of their massive bodies."
"You know a lot."
"O-ohohoho, I just happened to know about it."
Melvina said, her eyes swimming.
According to Patricia, Melvina seems to be a monster geek, but she doesn't want it to be known.
"What about this thing called the Blue Ghost?"
"It's a living corpse that has taken in the blue ashes of the holy tree. A hundred years ago, shortly after the Holy Tree landed in Yggdrasil, there were many of them because there was no culture of cremation. In the current capital, cremation is mandated by the law on cemetery burials, so it is a monster that has never been seen before."
"The people in the pioneer villages still bury their dead in the ground. But the demon disguised as Baron Ixel may have died and spread enough [blue ashes] to cause the blue ghost to appear."
Unless, of course, the report was a mistake ――Christo concludes.
(Almost none of the adventurers sent by the temporary government of the former Soderholm territory have returned from the northern forest. The number of missing people in the pioneer villages is increasing, huh? What the hell is going on?)
The most likely explanation is that the pioneer village, which had been protected by the old man's prestige, is now being incorporated into something more powerful with his death.
“Christo-san, are you going directly to subjugating them?”
"No, according to the administrator's letter, they paid a lot of money to hire a group of highly skilled mercenaries. They are called the [Band of the Giant Hawk of Salvation], and they were the ones who fought against the dragon race together with the army of the hero family. Do you know them?"
"Yeah... well. I've heard the name several times."
Melvina's expression becomes indescribable as soon as he mentions the name of the [Band of the Great Hawk of Salvation]. Has she heard any bad rumors about them?
“The original plan was for me to go hunting, but it seems that there are too many people who haven’t returned. Since the northern forest has become an unusually dangerous place, it seems that it would be better to stop sending me, the precious [Hero of the North], there. But that doesn't mean it would be wise to send a request to the warlords to defeat them."
"I see. I'm glad."
"What?"
Melvina put her hands on top of her skirt and stared at Christo's face.
"Christo-san won't be rushing into a reckless battlefield. I'm well aware that you're strong, but no matter how strong you are, if your weaknesses are exploited or you're caught off-guard, you'll die easily. Maybe I shouldn't say this to the [Hero of the North], but I don't want Christo-san to do dangerous things."
She doesn't want her loved one to die like her brother―― and she looks down sadly.
Technically, Setanta is not dead yet, but he is almost as good as dead.
Melvina received a considerable mental shock when she saw her brother, who had become a holy tree and was reduced to nothing more than repeating horrible ramblings.
"Thank you for worrying about me. But that's why I think I can spend a relaxing time over there, other than helping with paperwork and creating a resident register. There's nothing there, but I'd like to show you around the castle where I was born and raised, the pioneer village, and if possible, the monastery. You'd get sick of living there for six months, but I don't think you'd get tired of it if you stayed a few days."
"I'm looking forward to it."
Melvina said and gave a small smile.
× × ×
They changed carriages twice and spent a few hours there.
During that time, he played chess with Melvina and spent time on her lap, making out and touching each other. As he stroked her buttocks, waist, shoulders, and hair so that his hands and clothes smelled of the perfume she was using, he realized that it would be incredibly pleasurable to have super-slow sex, in which he continued petting for 24 hours with no penetration allowed, and only inserted when their sexual sensations were heightened.
After finishing the inspection at Gwendolyn's place quickly, he thought he'd try that kind of play once when Patricia was shutting herself in her room and studying for the exam.
(If I were flirting with Melvina, I might even think that I could stay like this for the rest of my life. If that happens, I'll go back to my monastic days.)
But he understands that many people in this world want peace.
It is natural that when you have a minimum of money and a pretty wife, you want nothing more.
If not for the old man's last words, Christo would have been content with his modest life with Melvina without hesitation. In that light, the old man's words were truly a curse.
"Watch your step"
After talking to Melvina, he went down the stairs of the carriage for the first time in several hours.
For the first time in several days, the port in the former Soderholm territory was still surrounded by dense coniferous forests.
Dusk was closing in on the sky over the port, and here and there the white snow was fluttering from thin floating clouds.
"Ara, it's pretty cold."
With Christo's help, Melvina comes down the stairs with a suitcase in hand.
"My breath is pure white!"
"It's unusual for it to be this cold. It should be a little warmer in spring."
"That's right. ――It seems that they haven't come to pick us up."
Melvina says while looking around the port.
At the port, there were only drivers who had finished their work for the day, removing the wyvern from the carriage and pulling it to the hut.
There is no one and nothing at the port, which is located at the far northern end of the country.
There was only a large plateau with neatly trimmed trees.
"We're not exactly guests of honor. ――The exit of the port is that way. When we get out of the port, we will go to Soderholm Castle. That's where we'll be sleeping for a while from today."
"What if I can't sleep because of the new pillow? Will Christo-san sing me a lullaby?"
"Okay, but the lullaby I know is a bit naughty lullaby. If you don't mind, I'll whisper it in your ear."
"W-well... what kind of song is it?"
Should I just tell her the beginning? ――Just as Christo was about to reply, a familiar figure caught his eye.
Ahead, beyond the port exit.
She is leaning against the pillar of the wooden gate with her suitcase in one hand.
Christo was about to pretend he had seen nothing and exit the port through the gate on the other side. But before he could urge Melvina to turn on her heel, she too noticed the figure and raised her voice.
"Oh, there's someone over there."
"...Ah, that's right."
“A black-haired... woman? She has an unusual staff, right? Is she a mage by any chance?"
"I don't know. Hey, Melvina. I was wondering, why don't we leave through the gate on the other side? There's something I want to stop by before going to the castle."
He turned his body around, trying to look calm.
However, the moment Christo turned his eyes, a voice he missed but didn't really want to hear echoed through the air.
"Ara? Is that [handsome-kun] over there?"
"Damn it, too late, huh?"
"Do you know her? She's walking over here."
"I don't know. Maybe she has mistaken me for someone else, so let's go."
"Oh, I'm not mistaking someone. You are [handsome-kun], right? It's been a long time. You remember me, right?"
"――――"
For a moment, Christo wondered if he should take Melvina's hand and run away.
But he refuses to do such a shameful thing as running away in front of his beloved fiancé.
The past will have to be faced someday.
He knew from the start that if he continued to accept requests in the former Soderholm territory, he would eventually come face to face with his own black history.
While Melvina's gaze was subtly piercing, Christo slowly turned around and forced a smile at the beautiful black-haired girl standing in front of him.
"H-hey. Laira."
"Yahho, handsome-kun. Uwa, how many years has it been? About five years? How have you been?"
The black-haired girl―― Laira swayed her knee-high black skirt, leaned forward, and peered at Christo from below.
She has dark eyes, long black hair tied in a side-tail, a beautiful bridge of the nose, thin lips, and a slightly round face.
Without a doubt, it's Laira.
As soon as Christo's brain recognized her as such, he was reminded of the stains of his former life.
[Aha. If you ejaculate just by being stepped on, you're a small fry.]
[Yes, I will make you ejaculate from now on. One, two, three, yes, ejaculate~! Ahaha, small fry~]
[It's a pity that you're so good-looking. But I like you a lot.]
[Ah, when I say I like you, it's like a pet. I'm not interested in you as a human being?]
[―― See you then, bye-bye. See you later, Christopher.]
"Aaaahhhhhh"
“C-Christo-san!?”
"I've come a long way back to the hometown I never wanted to return to in search of alchemical materials, and if you're back too, handsome-kun, then my homecoming is no longer in vain even if the information is empty. I'm glad to see you're doing well."
"U-umm..."
The black-haired girl gave a beautiful smile to Melvina, who had her eyes wide open at Christo, whom she had never seen before.
"Who's this cute girl? Is she your girlfriend, handsome-kun?"
"My name is Melvina Lou. I'm Christo's fiancé, and I go to the same Yggdrasil Holy Sword Academy as him."
"My name is Laira. Laira Almqvist."
The girl―― Laira held out her right hand wrapped in black leather gloves.
"I'm a mage who belongs to the Alchemy Department of the Magic Association. Nice to meet you."
