◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
Kerry headed to where the elves were causing a commotion.
Chasing after the escaped elf was futile anyway, and he figured he would meet her again there.
From a distance, villagers gathered with farming tools were visible.
“No! Why are you saying we kidnapped your missing elf?!”
“Child! Are you alright? Don’t touch the wound!”
“Someone call a doctor! Quick!”
The villagers were furious. The atmosphere, with even farming tools in hand, was hostile.
It felt like a riot could break out at any moment.
The elves, meanwhile, were aiming their bows at the villagers. A tense, precarious standoff hung in the air.
Kerry surveyed the surroundings to grasp the situation.
Listening to the villagers’ words, he could roughly understand what was happening.
‘A village child was hit by an elf’s arrow. It pierced his arm…but if treated well, he won’t die.’
He understood why the villagers were angry. But why were the elves angry?
A man, appearing to be the leader of the elf group, spoke.
“I won’t say it twice. Bring my sister back immediately. If you don’t, you will all be annihilated.”
“I’m telling you, why are you looking for your missing elf among us?!”
“My sister, who was beside me just now, disappeared without a word. So, isn’t it obvious that humans kidnapped her, ten times out of ten?”
Elves were sold for exorbitant prices in places like underground auctions.
He could understand why the elves were so on edge, if only a little. There was that much karma accumulated from the actions of the people of this world.
He roughly understood the situation now.
The elves believed their comrade was gone due to human interference, and the humans felt wronged, denying it.
Meanwhile, the elves had even shot an arrow at a child.
If the villagers truly hadn’t kidnapped the elf, then it was understandable that tempers were flaring.
Honestly, being human, he couldn’t definitively say it wasn’t human action. He didn’t know these people well.
Then it happened.
“Kerry!”
Lina’s party approached. It was Lina, Victoria, and Natasha. Were the others still at the inn?
“You all came.”
“Yes. We couldn’t stand by with all the commotion. But what exactly is the situation here?”
The elves and villagers remained in a tense standoff.
Kerry quickly summarized and explained the situation to Lina’s party. Lina’s expression was grim.
“The situation has become complicated. If we mishandle it…”
“Yes. Both sides will be willing to fight.”
Honestly, if it came to a real fight, the villagers would lose. But the villagers were furious and outnumbered the elves.
They probably relied on their numbers.
It would have been nice if they could at least admire the elves’ beauty.
But they were completely covered with hoods and masks, so there was nothing to see.
Then, the male elf who seemed to be the leader approached the party.
He came closer and took off his mask. The face of a handsome male elf was visible.
“Heavens. What beautiful ladies you are! I’ve never seen such beautiful human women before.
The name of us elves, called the race of beauty, itself feels shy before you.”
The masked male elf spoke with an oily voice and tone. His theatrical tone was so cringeworthy.
Lina seemed to know the man before her.
“…Greetings, Arein.”
“You know me?”
“…Your magical prowess is widely known across the continent.”
“But few recognize my face.
For a woman as beautiful as a flower blooming on a cliff to recognize me. It is an infinite honor.”
“…”
Just be brief. And this guy is annoying.
Lina also looked a bit fed up. It felt like she knew him well from before.
Wait. No way, this guy isn’t Lina’s past-life elf companion, is he?
‘The Hero’s elf companion isn’t a woman…really not a woman?’
He felt like he was falling into an abyss from the gates of heaven.
This couldn’t happen, and shouldn’t happen. How could the Hero’s elf companion be a man?!
Something was definitely wrong here. Ah! Is this a dream?
It’s a dream, so something this ridiculous is happening in reality!
Kerry couldn’t calm down.
“Arein. If possible, I’d like to talk…”
It was when Lina opened her mouth. Kerry couldn’t accept the impossible reality.
“Excuse me for interrupting, but…Lina.”
“Yes, Kerry.”
“Could you slap my cheek?”
“What? I can’t do that. How could I ever slap Kerry’s cheek…”
He felt like he needed a slap from Lina to wake up from this dream. But even in a dream, Lina wouldn’t slap him, would she?
It was quite realistic for a dream.
Then the male elf looked at Kerry and said,
“How unpleasant.”
“?”
“How dare a mere human interrupt our conversation! Ah! Of course, the term ‘mere human’ does not apply to you three beautiful ladies.”
This obnoxious bastard as a new companion?! He absolutely couldn’t accept this reality.
This was a dream. Yes. It was a dream, so he might as well curse freely. This motherfucking bastard. He had it coming.
It was when Kerry was about to ask the male elf about his parents’ well-being in a Korean-style greeting.
Then the elves began to murmur.
An elf, with light green hair, came running from a distance.
“Brother. I’m here!”
She was wearing a mask, but it was definite.
That light green hair and that physique. It was clearly the female elf Kerry had bumped into earlier.
“Arwen! My sister is safe.”
“Of course I’m safe. Did you think I was captured by humans? From the looks of it…it seems like that was indeed the situation.”
Then the confronting villagers began to protest.
“See! We didn’t kidnap her!”
“Apologize immediately! Apologize to our child too.”
“Elves, apologize! Apologize!”
The male elf, who appeared to be the leader.
The one who had probably instigated this situation didn’t move. He just glared at the villagers from behind his mask, then turned his head.
“Hey. You rude bastard. If you made a mistake, you should at least pretend to apologize, shouldn’t you?”
The male elf ignored Kerry’s words and spoke to the other elves.
“We’re leaving.”
The elves walked away, receiving jeers from the villagers.
Were elves always such rude creatures? It was a bit of a disappointment.
But still, the impression of that female elf’s beauty was unforgettable.
Lina clutched her head, looking exasperated.
“Haaah. We managed to resolve the situation, but…I couldn’t say anything I wanted to.
If only there had been a chance to talk, we might not have had to enter the forest.”
“…The atmosphere was too hostile for any conversation, Lina.”
Kerry nodded. He was glad he got to see that obnoxious elf bastard now.
He was absolutely against a man like that joining the party.
Especially if it was an obnoxious and handsome male elf, he couldn’t accept it even if he had dirt in his eyes.
‘The elf companion is getting a complete replacement.’
He felt sorry for Lina, but Kerry made up his mind.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
The elves returned to the forest.
Lina’s party also returned to the inn. It was already dark outside.
Fortunately, no bloodshed occurred in the village, but Kerry wasn’t in a very good mood.
“Kerry. You seem to be in a bad mood…would you perhaps lighten your expression?
Or did I do something wrong?”
Oops. He wondered why dinner with the party was so stiff; it must have been his expression.
“It’s not your fault, Lina. It’s because of that male elf.”
That obnoxious bastard. That damn bastard.
“Phew. Indeed, I was also disgusted by his refusal to even apologize to the villagers.
A kind person like Kerry must be even more angry.”
“Husband. Calm down.”
“Heh heh. Kerry. You’re not actually angry because that man showed interest in us, are you?”
He somewhat admitted Victoria’s point. He absolutely hated the sight of that guy hitting on his party members.
Then the Saint, who had been quietly eating, blurted out a remark.
“What’s the big deal about not apologizing to commoners? It’s just something that can happen.”
At that moment, the atmosphere at the dinner table froze.
‘Alright. Max punishment for the Saint, and make her do community service at the inn all evening. As a sign of remorse.’
[Understood, Master.]
The Saint, in mid-meal, let out a moan. Her body trembled, and her face flushed.
The party, unaware, genuinely worried about the Saint. Since the Saint said she was in pain, the caring party members were truly angels.
Kerry shook his head, watching the Saint climaxing while receiving the party’s concern.
‘More importantly, who should I choose as the new elf companion?’
Since that male elf was the Hero’s past-life comrade, he must be quite skilled. At the very least, any replacement had to be comparable in skill.
Then the female elf came to Kerry’s mind.
He had only seen her for a fleeting moment, but that light green-haired elf was beautiful.
But the succubus had said she wasn’t strong. That was a shame.
For now, it seemed better to worry about choosing an elf companion after entering Scandinavia.
Lina, comforting the Saint who was moaning in climax, said,
Of course, Lina thought she was just having a stomachache, not an orgasm.
“More importantly, everyone, let’s go to bed early tonight. We have to enter the Elven forest early tomorrow morning.”
Victoria asked in a worried voice,
“The elves’ hostility towards humans…it was beyond imagination. Is it really okay to go in, Lina?”
“I will manage somehow.”
“If you say so, I’ll trust you.”
Victoria also trusted Lina.
‘If she’s a regressor, she can surely lead us to the Elven village, the romance of humanity.’
That day, the party ate dinner as discussed and went to bed early.
Though the Saint claimed she wanted to serve the villagers and helped out at the inn for free.
“Saint. We’ll go in and sleep first. Work hard.
To offer free service for the residents. Truly befitting the name of a Saint.”
When Kerry waved and spoke, the Saint glared at him as if to kill him. She still had a long way to go to be reformed.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
Kerry had intended to rest tonight.
Even if he was overflowing with energy from the elixirs, he sometimes needed days to rest.
Kerry happily threw himself onto the bed.
“Ah. This is nice.”
Perhaps because his body was tired, he quickly felt sleepy. After spending some money in this world, he felt no major discomfort in living.
How long had he slept with his eyes closed?
Tap, tap a knock was heard. He really wanted to rest today. This popularity wouldn’t leave him alone.
“Coming out.”
Who could it be? Victoria? It wasn’t her turn for a lust cooldown, since he’d appeased her secretly the other day.
Kerry opened the door.
Standing in front of the door was the blushing Saint.
“Isn’t this the Saint? What brings you to a man’s room late at night?”
“…”
The Saint couldn’t say anything, just stood there, blushing.
“Would you like to come in first?”
“Ah, no! It’s not that. What I want to say is…”
“I already have a rough idea of what it is. Come in.”
The Saint tried to pull away, claiming she hadn’t come to enter the room, but it was no use.
The Saint couldn’t refuse Kerry’s words.
Kerry lit a candle.
The dark room brightened with the candle’s light.
Red light shimmered, illuminating the Saint’s body, making the atmosphere incredibly lewd.
Especially the sight of the Saint clutching her legs tightly and blushing was a masterpiece.
“How was your work at the inn? Did you enjoy it?”
“You…never make me do that kind of menial work again! Do you know how frustrated I was with the endless dishes?
My beautifully manicured nails were ruined! Do you know how much it costs to do one nail?”
“Oh dear. You still haven’t learned the ways of the common folk. When will our Saint finally mature?”
Kerry asked Ego about the Saint’s training progress.
[‘Kerry’s Exclusive Dick Entrance’ Obedience – 6 percent]
Only 1 percent increased? He needed to put more effort into training the Saint.
“More importantly, what’s the reason for your visit?”
“…”
The Saint twisted her body and couldn’t say anything, just like she did at the door.
Actually, he had seen this side of the Saint many times before.
“You should be used to this by now.”
“How can I get used to something like this?!”
“You can make it easy for yourself with just one word.”
“Y-You bad…”
[Beep – A negative will toward the Master has been detected. Punishment initiated.]
“Hee-hee-eet!”
The Saint, perhaps finding it hard to endure, hopped up and down, clutching her crotch.
Kerry shook his head at the sight.
“You’ve already done it several times. Just speak comfortably.”
“Please, just let me go to the bathroom comfortably.”
“That’s not possible.”
“Why?”
“Because it wouldn’t be fun.”
“Eek! You-you-you!”
[Beep – A negative will toward the Master has been detected. Punishment initiated.]
Was she simple or honest? Every time Kerry teased the Saint, she would easily fall for it.
The Saint needed to pee, and as the punishment prolonged, it seemed increasingly difficult for her to hold it.
“Isn’t that a trauma for you? A grown woman wetting her skirt.”
“…”
The first time she asked permission to use the bathroom in the abandoned house, the Saint had ended up wetting her clothes.
Perhaps because of that, she was reasonably obedient when it came to going to the bathroom thereafter.
The Saint, once again, approached him as if she had no choice.
And with a deeply flushed face, she spoke.
