Orion leaned in and kissed her on the side of her neck before trailing upwards and melding his lips with hers. Taking advantage of her current occupied situation, Orion thrust his entire member in before gently pulling out.

"AHHH~~" Crystalia broke away from the kiss and moaned loudly.

Her knees were raised upwards, and her toes curled on the bedsheet as she finally received Orion's manhood with her womanly warmth.

"Husband~~ You can go faster, I can handle it~~" Crystalia said, her voice ringing in Orion's ears, prompting an indescribable wave of excitement to rush through his body.

Though he couldn't go too far since this was Crystalia's first time, that didn't mean he couldn't provide her with an indescribable experience.

Orion used one hand to cup the feel of her small, petite breasts, massaging them softly to further arouse her, while using his other hand to gently widen her legs and prevent her from instinctively closing them.

Pahh~~ Paaahh~~~ Paaahhh~~~

The sound of their flesh slowly melding clashed against each other, filling the air, while their bodily fluids scattered on the bed as they both indulged in the pleasure and satisfaction of tasting each other's bodies from the inside out.

....

Hearing the moans emanating from Crystalia's room, Queen Selene smiled. She had been worried that her daughter would delay giving herself away for the first time and continue to wait without having a child of her own. However, she couldn't help but sigh in relief, seeing that her worries had been for nought.

She had given birth to a brave daughter, after all, so how could something like that be capable of stopping her?

Nonetheless, since her daughter had finally decided to break the final barrier of her relationship with her husband, she no longer saw any reason to remain. She immediately returned to the Third Border City to handle her work.

Just as she was about to step forward, Celeste emerged from the other side before her. "Selene!" she called out.

Queen Selene furrowed her brows in confusion, pondering why Celeste was looking for her so early in the morning.

Had Orion informed her about their relationship?

Though they had promised not to let anybody know until they were prepared, the woman before her was Orion's biological mother, so she wouldn't find it surprising if she knew about it.

"Have you seen Orion? A warrior arrived earlier this morning to give him an important message from the Village Chief," Celeste asked, arriving before her.

She thought Orion had returned to his room after yesterday's event, but she didn't see him there when she went to look for him.

"He's currently busy," Queen Selene responded, glancing at the door beside her.

Celeste shifted her attention and noticed that it was Crystalia's room. Hearing the moans and rippling of flesh that emanated from behind the door, Celeste's eyes widened in understanding. She immediately realized that Crystalia was finally having her first time.

"I thought that they would choose to delay it a little longer. It's good that she didn't," Celeste responded, exhaling lightly in relief.

"I would have locked the two of them in the same room if they had. So it's good they didn't. I think we should leave before they notice our presence," Queen Selene responded, smiling lightly.

Celeste chuckled at Queen Selene's words. She nodded and followed Queen Selene as she walked away.

East side of the Third Border City

Orion landed on the east side of the Third border city walls. He was immediately welcomed by the Prismerion and Village warriors, who led him toward the Village Chief, who was also just arriving.

"Orion, it's good that you're finally here," the Village Chief said with a smile.

He walked forward and hugged Orion, patting him on the back before releasing him. "I'm curious about what kind of matter would require you to remain in Aegis of the Arctic Deity's presence for three days. Of course, it's alright if it's sensitive information you cannot reveal," he added.

No matter how curious he was, he wasn't stupid enough to force Orion to spill the contents of his conversation with a god.

"It's a long story, one I'll explain in detail later," Orion responded.

Initially, he had wanted to keep everything a secret, but considering the current circumstances, he realized he couldn't. The benefits of sharing what he had learned far outweighed the consequences. If they encountered more races or even a runaway city, preparing their minds for what they might witness on the other side of the world when the time came was essential.

The Village Chief was momentarily stunned by Orion's response before he nodded, smiling brightly. "Alright, I'll arrange a time when you can visit the Village Chief's compound for this discussion," he responded.

Orion nodded in agreement.

The Village Chief then led the way towards Rightward Stronghold leader Seth, who was waiting for them atop the enormous wooden wall in the distance. They reached his position within minutes.

Rightward Stronghold leader Seth immediately noticed their presence and turned to welcome them. He nodded at the Village Chief before shifting his attention towards Orion. "Warrior Orion, it's good that you are finally here. We have been awaiting your presence for the last three days so we can finally commence the eradication of the Dead Forest," he said.

The bitterness Seth had harboured about the young man before he had been entirely cleared away. Though he coveted and respected power and authority above all, he wasn't a fool.

Despite his confidence in the positive changes he could bring to the village, they seemed laughable compared to Orion's achievements.

With a god protecting them 24 hours a day every day, reducing the strain on the warriors, they had expanded to the point where many races were under them, relying on them for security and sustenance.

Even if he were foolish, Seth could still conclude that the village needed a leader like Orion instead of someone like him. He would gain more by following behind Orion and ensuring that he didn't fall to the ground when he stumbled.
