Chapter 364: Innocent White Crow

The elf ghosts are still around, butwhen Kisara starts to walk up to me while exuding pa.s.sion from her whole body

Puyuyu?

Taro suddenly shows up.

Nuohh! Taro, where have you been until now!?

Puyuyuyuu!

Ah! The one from back then? Kisara swiftly falls back while shouting in a fl.u.s.ter.

She presses a hand against her chest while using the other to bunch up her disheveled hair on her left shoulder. The nun garb and magic garment hiding her twin hills sink in thanks to her palm.

What a sight for sore eyes

The shape of her b.o.o.bs is clearly standing out as theyre held back by her hand. To me it looks like nothing more than a pose a pretty gravure model would take for a picture.

Taro talks with its usual puyuyu while swinging its small wand around.

Bear cub-chan, are you targeting my chest? Kisara asks, obviously agitated.

Well, she had taken Taros attack a while ago. The small dinosaur decorating the tip of Taros Christmas tree-like wand, had magnificently torn up Kisaras garb, exposing one of her t.i.ts. Its wobbling left a deep impression on me.

And maybe Taro plans to recreate that wobbling battle once more?

The small dinosaur toy is turned towards Kisara, no, the female elf ghosts. Wait, they still havent vanished? The twin ghosts look as if asking, Eh? Us?

I wanted to give a retort to the two ghosts, but Taros wand bends widely and its tip stops when pointing outside the village.

Why are you always interfering when Ive got some important business with Shuuya-sama, just like during our first battle!? Kisara points the spearhead of her witch spear at Taro.

The strings of the filaments extend from the hole in the handle, twining themselves around her arm.

Kisara Should I deal with it?

No, you stay up there.

Rotalz is way too big, so he might crush the house if he were to come down.

Rotalz, follow Shuuya-samas order, and remain on standby in the sky.

Mumu, that guys your precious

A fire dwells in the center of his big forehead, and the lower part of that forehead bulges out.

Sheesh, youre so short-tempered, Rotalz! Kisara shakes her head, jumps, and flies up.

Talking to Rotalz, who angrily told her, Things are going to become tough in the future if you do such things, you know?, while approaching him, Kisara places a hand on his forehead, where veins have popped out, and soothes him.

Thereupon, Puyuyu? Puyuyu~

Taro is moving the tip of its wand, telling me to look outside?

I obediently follow its request, but can only see a part of the Sea of Trees outside the village. Oh, could it possibly

Do you want to say that you were hurled outside?

Puyu!

Taro plants the wands end on the ground, nodding several times. Its probably saying that Ive been right.

Ah, back then, huh? The time when Divine Beast Rollodeen carefully lowered everyone to the ground with her tentacles and then released them, I suppose. Is that the reason why Rollo has meowed so many times? Did Taro have a hard time holding onto the tentacle?

In the end, Rollo must have hurled it into the distance just like that. I think thats the likely case here. Or Taro might have simply been thrown off when Rollo shook her body

So, how did you arrive here after having been hurled so far away, Taro?

Puyu??

Taro inclines its non-existing head. Kuu, how cute

Howdid youcome here? I ask once more, leaving breaks between my words and adding gestures to it.

Puyu, puyu, puyu

Did Taro understand my words and gestures? Taro patters around while mumbling something under its breath. Eventually Taro stops at the edge of the village.

I think its a dangerous place to be, butTaro doesnt mind those feelings of mine. It raises its wand above its head, and vigorously lowers it down. It continues a barrage of pokes as if to whittle down the rock protruding out of the cliff with the b.u.t.t end of its wand. In the middle of it, the it friggin adopts a pose, seemingly imitating my spear techniques.

What a cheeky teddy bear.

Puyu! Puyuun. After proudly squealing as if boasting of its own technique, it returns.

I feel like my eyebrows twitch lightly, but I dont answer.

So you climbed the cliff, right? And, what do you want me to do? Whats your aim here?

Puyuyu

Taro enters my house just like Muu before it. Hey, wait a sec, you plan to live in my home!?

At that point, Kisara flies back to me.

The bear cub that tore apart my sorcery outfit inside Shuuya-samas house She bickers around while landing with her thick-soled boots touching down on the ground.

At the same time, a tiny Helme appears in my visual field.

The owner of the strange voice Rollo-sama heard right after arriving was that of the small life-form, wasnt it?

Taro, who has entered my home, holds up its wand towards Muu, and unleashes a barrage of puyuyus. Helme points a finger at that small bear cub.

Looks like it. Higlia has called it a bols.h.i.+d of the Sea of Trees. It only says puyuyu, and as you can see, it looks like a bear cub doll, but it seems to be a beastman. Its weird movements are fast

I can somehow grasp the meaning of its cryptic puyusso its possibly of magic nature. It sure is a mysterious, tiny life-form. Ive never seen a wand like that either, but it seemed as though things similar to wind spirits are dwelling within it

The tiny Helme presses a finger against her chin, talking while pondering.

Something that would be cla.s.sified as spirits, huh? It appears it can also manipulate b.u.t.terflies and bugs, and the dinosaur or monster at its tip is weird, too

It seems to be an unknown spirit. I dont understand the small monster magic tool at its tip

That, umm, puyuyu manipulates the mysterious small dinosaur, butit ended up getting in my way with Kisara

As I pa.s.s on my feelings on the matterHelme shoots an illusionary water ball from a finger as if shooting a squirt gun.

Your Excellency, Muu wants to pew pew at you as well, and you must also properly deal with that Puyuyu. Theres also the matter with Kisara, so leave this to me

The tiny Helme makes her b.u.t.t s.h.i.+ne. Then she smoothly slips out of my left eye, apparently intending to help me out there. Its not Spirit Ball Conception, but her movement speed as liquid has become oddly fast.

Ah, Spirit-sama, youre too fast, the water mist Kisara extends a finger towards the watery glittering.

Of course, she cant catch it since its a fleeting trace of remains.

Helme, whos instantly finished transforming into a humanoid shape, enters the house while generating sheets of water spray from her lower half. And then she comes back out while bringing Taro and Muu with her.

The moment I see the reason why she managed to come out with them so quickly, I fully understand.

Small flowers bloom on two of her fingers, and mysterious strings extend from those flowers. Im also astonished by the flowers blooming there, but whats up with those weird strings?

Skillfully using those strings, she bound and immobilized Muu and Taros bodies. Also, Muu was a girl? The shape of her moderately sized b.r.e.a.s.t.s is being revealed by Helmes splendid turtle sh.e.l.l bondage technique.

I cant distinguish Taros gender because of its thick fur. Well, not like it matters anyway.

And then a part, which both victims have in common, glows up a bit. It looks like both of them have received Helmes baptism. Though I wont point out what kind of baptism

Lets offer them a prayer.

Seeing this chain of events, the nearby elven ghosts become frightened. Maybe, because of my chest?

I focus on HalKonk and make it transform into its three-quarter-sleeved s.h.i.+rt version. Then I flip over the green cloth, checking my chest.

As I suspected, the cross mark carved into my chest gleams faintly. Its an Extra Skill, so maybe the ghosts would pa.s.s on properly if I prayed for real?

Anyway, right now Helmes string is more interesting than the ghosts. I havent seen those mysterious strings on her so far.

The base of her fingers has changed its hue to a color similar to the Spirit Ball Conception. Once I focus my eyes, I can see that the fingertips have changed as well. Plant bulbs are visible at the ends. Moreover, small flowers are blooming on the tips of those bulbs.

The bulbs, which exist on all her fingers, are eerily squirming like beating hearts, butthe small bulbs on her left hands fingers are pretty with their color reminding me of a clear, azure sky. The strings extending from the bulbs flowers like pistils are also blue.

On the other hand, the bulbs on the right hands fingers have darkish bulb flowers. The strings extending from those are black.

The blue and black strings extending from both hands intertwine with each other while spiraling. And, adding to the Spirit Ball Conception-like mysteriousness within those spiraling string lines, their colors repeatedly change into special hues.

Those strangely colored strings have seductively bound the bodies of Muu and Taro.

Helme, these strings are?

Once I ask, Helme approaches me while walking like a model. Just like that, she forms the Ra Kelada sign on her chest so as to express her respect towards me, and then adds a bow while imitating Kisaras Palm Hold Fist salute. Because of her fist salute, the pretty strings bunch up. At the same time, a nice fragrance, seemingly an effect of the new bulb flowers, wafts over.

Yes, its a new skill. This is also thanks to you, Your Excellency.

When did that happen? What kind of effect does it have? And what about its name?

Pardon me for being late in reporting back to you. The skill is called

. It seems like I absorbed something from the semi-transparent orc the other day. Its effect is, as you can see, the creation of strings that combine water and darkness. Also, it allows me to fill the vicinity with my favorite scent.

Taro has its mouth clogged up by the strings. Given that Muu is silent to begin with, her mouth has been left alone. Taros appearance is that of a bear cub doll, but Muu looks just like a doll.

Hoh, so thats why the nice fragrancea skill effect befitting a spirit.

Thank you very much. It might have come to be after getting influenced by Your Excellencys chain skills. Well then, Im going to have a little chat with the two up there in the sky She announces and floats upwards.

Helme lands on top of my houses roof while lightly carrying the two string victims. Performing a two-staged jump as if using the roof, she leaps upon Rotalz as if switching with Kisara after revolving in the air.

With her sitting on Rotalz, the two of them keep circling above the village. The twin elf ghosts have been looking up, too.

After muttering, For her to subdue a darkness whale so easily while looking surprised, Kisara looks back at me again. Her blue eyes are shaking. However, her gaze is powerfulas its pinned on me. It seems to tell me, I wont let you escape today

It gives me the feeling of being preyed upon by a ferocious bird of prey.

Shuuya-sama, give my thanks to Spirit-sama. And, today is the day I shall show you my feelings that had to wait

Had to wait, huh? Shes rightthere had been many opportunities for me to have s.e.x with her while Quiche was asleep. But, I havent done so yet. Various reasons came into play here like me being busy, and me wanting to show my love to Quiche.

But, to be honest, all of these were just excuses. Its because Ive been highly evaluating Kisaras strength and spiritual nature. Shes more than strong enough for me to welcome her as

However, knowing her history, it wont be too late to do so after going to the great desert.

Ive been piling up such and other excuses, but in the end I feel slightly nervous since Im dealing with a beauty after a long time.

When Im thinking about all thatKisara drops her precious witch spear with a pained expression. The spear falls on the ground and rolls away. I can see a check patterned depression that seems to signify the family crest she had shown me earlier near the grip of the spear.

At the same time, she makes the magic garment, which has been covering her shoulders and collar, disappear. Moreover, the grimoire dangling at her waist gleams after the cross-shaped design of her nuns garb is clad in light. That grimoire contains a truly tremendous amount of mana

In the next moment, a part of her garb changes its shape, transforming into a no-sleeve costume that exposes both her shoulders. The lower part remains unchanged. But now its a charming witch attire that capitalizes on the black nuns garb.

Then she closes the distance to me with a witch-like speed, embracing me as if leaping into my chest.

Shuuya-samas smellwhat a dreamy smell. Mmh, more of that blood scent

Come to think of it, back when we fought, she licked my blood and painted her cheeks with it, didnt she? Dont tell me, does she possess a skill like Kaldos?

Oh well, finding out can wait for later.

The soft touch of her big b.o.o.bs pressing against my chest feels great.

Kisara, you smell nice too.

Im glad to hear that. After that battle, my heart and body throbbed

Kisaras white eyebrows are covered by her black mask, so I cant see them, butI know that craving is spilling out of her moist eyes.

Shes irresistible. Seeing how I have Helme create some time for usIll be disqualified as a man if I dont do anything after being pushed this far by a beauty.

ah.

Just like that, I steal her small lips. Her lips are slightly hot as mana apparently dwells in her dark purple lipstick. Kisaras pa.s.sion is being pa.s.sed on to me. Right after my initial, gentle kiss, I respond to her pa.s.sionate feelings, and finish up with a powerful kiss that pulls her lips with smacking sounds.

Ahn, Shuuya-sama, the bringer of light and darknessand me

Immediately after the kiss ends, Kisara traces her lips with a finger while releasing a seductive voice. Having become aroused, Kisara transforms the shape of the mask covering the area around her eyes. Now it looks the same as during battle. Its a helmet with a condor-like beak hiding the tip of her nose.

It looks groovy, but it wont be possible for me to kiss her like that.

Its become a helmet, but I separate a bit from Kisara.

S-Sorry. Its the crow shape. The Ogre Princess Armament selfishly without me even extolling itfor DamoAnuns mask to react on its own

The bringer of light and darkness, DamoAnun.

During her supernatural, magic voices adulationshe mentioned spear fighter DamoAnun. And does the frumious desert crow, which always takes the middle path, mean the middle path between light and darkness? Or maybebetween evil and holy?

The one piercing through G.o.ds, men, and evil without concern of divine blessings. This might mean that an enemy is an enemy, regardless whether they belong to the divine domain or the Spirit World.

There was also something about the holder of the Dawns sorcery techniques, wasnt there?

Making a prediction based on all thisKisara originates from the great desert. And the ancient stone resting inside my item box has something like Ancient Writing Stone of Dawn carved on it.

Well, I guess Ill ask herlater.

Ogre Princess Armament, huh? Does that mean youre not allowed to act on your own by the Spirit World G.o.ddess Mephalla-sama?

No, Iits my first kiss with a man. Thats why the mask, which sensed an unnatural surge of mana and pulsationMephalla-samas divine protection automatically Kisara looks shaken.

For her first kiss to be with me I thought she might be experienced, going by the bewitching aura shes been emanating. I hadnt expected her to be an innocent, white crow

I suppose Ill treat her as gently as possible.

I see. Well, its said that love isnt about hurrying. Should we limit it to kisses for today? I think Rotalz will be worried as well. I tell Kisara while looking at the twin elf ghosts smiling on the side, and picking up the witch spear.

Fufu, Rotalz is rather rooting for me.

Even while nodding at her commentI experience a weird sensation of being pulled into the witch spear. Is it close to Magic Halberd Baldok?

But, youre very kind. Its the reason why Spirit-sama, Quiche-dono whom you embraced over and over again, and Higlia-chan, whos endured even while knowing about it, love you dearly, Shuuya-sama

It seems like Kisara has been observing all of us from the sky. However, the witch spear in my right handrather than my soul being drawn inside itits like the holewith the fluttering filaments is appealing to me

It also seems like its desiring my blood. It might be similar to the time when I touched the Stone of Divine Evil for the first time. Though I quickly glossed over it as I was at the auction back then.

While tilting my head, I approach Kisara. I should make a rack for this witch spear later on. This is Kisaras spear.

So, can you take it off? I poke Kisaras helmet with a finger.

Yes, Ill pull it down, no, its important to me, but Ill take it off

Kisara inclines her head while shaking her hair sideways, and takes off the helmet. Even her bearing as she removes the helmet that made her look like a black queen looks graceful. On that occasion my attention is drawn to Kisaras small horn, butrather than that, her hair smells nice.

It seems to be a famous perfume in the Great Desert Goldix It sure smells great. Its waking my desires.

Just like that I place my arms around her hip, and pull her towards me.

Ah, S-Shuuya-sama

Her body trembles, as she apparently senses my warmth. At the same time, a stuffy, sweet aroma my beloved, womanly scent, which clearly differs from perfume, tickles my nose.

She naturally lets the helmet fall to the ground, and closes her eyes after revealing an eager expression. Her lips are quivering as if hoping for a kiss. Her thin, white eyebrows are pretty as well

While thinking all that, I take her lips for a second time.

Kisaras carnal voice echoes into the knoll inside Cydale for a few hours. If Rollodeen had heard it, shed probably be astonished.

Aahh, Shuuya-sama. I cantget up anymore.

Her voice is usually expressive, but it becomes hoa.r.s.e in the middle of her words. Shes exposing her womanhood atop the bed with her slender legs trembling like those of a baby chick.

Really? Just earlier you said things like

Im also related to Spear Fighter DamoAnun, so Ill do my best!

I fiercely attacked the wet, hot place between her legs.

Aaaahh

The white crow, which used to be an innocent, baby chick, was gone by now. All that was now left was the moaning of an adult female echoing at the base of the Bewitching Palace.

Several hours later, the brand-new bed has become sweat-drenched. Both of us continue having a silly conversation while smiling

While flirting under the pretext of a break, I inform her of various, important matters.

is the race.

After having listened to my long explanation, she nods, apparently contemplating deeply about what Ive told her. And then she looks directly at me.

A strong fire of l.u.s.t is still left in her eyes, but at the same time, I can sense that its being exceeded by a firm determination.

, and a race called Light Demon Lucivalas expected, youre the Bringer of Light and Darkness. The messiah of the Black Witch Church

Kisara stares at her grimoire towards the end of her statement.

Spare me with the Gramps Ton remarks. So, Kisara, youve called your combat occupation as Heavenly Witch Spearmaster. Whats that about? I ask her as she lies stretched out.

Yes, as you know, before I was defeated by Hoffmann, ahn

I wont forgive that guy.

My anger over him having injured Kisaramakes me unconsciously grope her big b.o.o.bs.

Fufu, Shuuya-sama, you do love my big chest

Yeah. After replying with a grunt, Sorry, please continue.

At the same time as I pull back my hand with a smile, I plant my feet on the wooden floor that looked like it was covered with a reed screen, and stand up. I walk away from the bed.

On that occasion, my eyes spotted the front cover of the grimoire bordered by gold leaf which Kisara had placed on a stand after removing it from her waist. The design adorning its cover resembles the design that depicted the majestic, ancient battle which had been visible on Kisaras mask. Or rather, its even more detailed over here.

A part of the picture shows thin magic streaks being radiated into the air from a horned humanoid with a spear. That part interests me, butlimiting it to just narrowing my eyes at the cover, I pick up a magic cigarette from the box I had placed on a stand next to the grimoire, and put it into my mouth. While lighting the cigarette, I look outside the window I added at the top of the roof.

The cold night wind feels pleasant as it brushes my heated body Its night, but the moonlight is bright enough so that I dont need

. I guess this is another side effect from me being a Lucival.

I sense the winter coming from the dull yellow leaves growing on the plaza. It might be a good idea to add an embankment over there.

At present I have no plans to cultivate farm land, but when I was entrusted with various jobs by Donagan, I heard all kinds of stuff about farming from him

It might be possible to produce extremely profitable wood vinegar from your trees, Shuuya

Please bury the crates in the soil

When I asked him why I should bury the crates there, Mint is the basics, you know? Its oil is going to become a precious resource

Quiche also showed up, and learned about farming together with me. It was also the moment when I talked with her about calling Sherry by contacting Hino to request her to act as a trader for us because we were running low on wax material for sealing.

With the equipment from the orcs we looted this time, well be able to hire strong adventurers, and if we also cultivate farmland

Because she showed that translucent smile of hers, she must have been emotionally touched again.

Immediately following, Donagan asked, Shuuya, werent you going to help me with my work?, with a touch of sarcasm. Because of that, I did my best with the work around Donagans house.

It looks like I got influenced by his story about planting redeck roots during that period of time. To be frank, I wasnt overly interested in farming, but listening to him, it gave me the impression that it might be quite fun

Though he didnt tell me about his precious seeds he was always carrying with him It seems theres some secret to those seeds. Lets ask him about them one day.

At the moment when Im about to s.h.i.+ft my eyes from the plaza towards the distance to take in even more of the scenery

Eh? Huh? I rub my eyes in disbelief.

The elven ghosts, which I had encountered on the plaza, which is scheduled to become a training ground, or rather, in the garden, have gathered with ghostly swaying movements in groups. An elf wearing seedy-looking rags, an elf wearing a fine dress, an elf lacking an arm, an adventurer-styled elf clad in an overcoat, and an elf that is very clearly a corpse.

All of them are staring at me. Though I can tell that they arent hostile, just like before.

Why have the ghosts a.s.sembled? Have we possibly f.u.c.ked too much? It shouldnt have been such an intense waist movement that itd shake the land.

Are they urging me to hold a speech? Something like, Rise, my people!

Well, lets leave the jokes at that. I had planned to go for another round while listening to Kisaras past, butthose twin elves are present as well

I dont know whether I can communicate with the a.s.sembly of elf ghosts, butI guess Ill give it a try.

I just need to slowly listen to Kisaras past, and the background of that grimoire later on.

At that point, I sense Helmes magic source. Which reminds meIve left Muu and Taro to her.
