◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
The lion-headed man at the edge of the forest roared. The sound was so loud it felt like the air itself vibrated.
Kwaaahhhh!
Goosebumps erupted all over Kerry’s body. He didn’t even need to check the stats with the Eyes of the Goddess; that thing was a monster.
“Run! Victoria.”
“Right!”
Victoria and Kerry ran back into the forest. Damn it. He just wanted to go home, but things were getting ridiculously difficult.
The monster chased after them, running on all fours with its heavy hands and feet. He didn’t know what kind of animal it was, but it was incredibly fast.
“Damn. Why is it so fast?!”
“This is bad. I’ll hold it off, Kerry, you…”
“Aren’t you tired of that chivalrous act?”
“You! I’m worried about you, and that’s what you say?!”
“Just run!”
Think of a way to survive. The Wind Blade was ready. He had a wooden spear, but it didn’t seem like it would do much against that thing.
Judging by the wings, the monster could probably fly too. This was dangerous.
“Kerry! It’s right behind us!”
“Shit. I’ll buy some time with magic, then you run…”
Before Kerry could finish, another roar echoed from the opposite direction.
What now? What is this, a monster brawl?
“Kraaa!”
But it wasn’t another crisis. The source of the roar was Natasha.
“Natasha! You came to save us!”
He was saved. Lina wasn’t visible right now, but she must be nearby. The two of them would be able to handle it somehow.
Then, as Natasha approached from afar, she looked different than before.
A red haze shimmered and rose from her entire body.
Kerry recalled Natasha’s talent.
[Talent – Bloodlust]
[Summary – Strength increases with rage. Self-control diminishes as strength increases.]
Natasha seemed even more agitated than usual. Unbeknownst to Kerry, already stressed from losing him, Natasha had gone berserk at the sight of danger.
That red haze felt really dangerous.
He worried that she might lose her mind and attack him instead, but it was a needless concern.
Natasha charged at the lion monster. A thunderous boom resonated through the forest as the two collided. Birds startled, taking flight from the trees.
“Grrrr-”
“What is this…? Ah. You’re the red-haired woman Huruuku talked about. Heh. This is interesting.”
Barickmeteo couldn’t continue. Natasha didn’t wait and pressed her attack.
Instead of her usual two feet, Natasha attacked the lion monster on all fours like a beast.
She even bit it with her teeth like an animal.
“Stronger than I heard. Quite the crazy bitch, too. Do my words not reach you?”
Natasha and the lion monster were almost evenly matched. For Natasha, who fought on par with Huruuku, to fight so similarly against a seemingly stronger opponent…
It was probably the power she gained by throwing away most of her reason.
“Kerry!”
Then, a welcome voice came from the forest. They finally arrived. He missed them!
“Lina!”
“Are you alright? Are you hurt?”
“I’m fine. But Natasha…!”
“Yes, I know. I knew something was up when I heard that roar. Natasha got all worked up and ran off ahead of me.”
“Is she going to be okay?”
“…”
Lina couldn’t answer. Natasha’s talent was incredible, but it wasn’t something she could control.
“Tsk. You’re ridiculously lucky.”
The lion monster glared at Kerry, saying so. Was it targeting him from the beginning? Why?
Before he could sort out his thoughts, the lion monster took flight. Natasha continued to attack, but she couldn’t stop it from escaping.
“I’ll let you off the hook this time, seeing as the situation isn’t in my favor. But don’t interfere with us again. If you value your life, that is.”
Leaving those words behind, the monster soared into the sky and disappeared. Following shortly after, the knights who had been searching for Victoria appeared one after another.
Finally, the moment of their emotional reunion arrived. He’d truly thought he was going to die just moments ago.
But there was still a problem.
Natasha. Natasha’s rampage hadn’t subsided yet. She glared at the escaping lion monster and tried to chase after it.
But there was no way she could catch it in the air. Then, Natasha, chasing after the lion monster, suddenly turned around.
And started running towards them.
“Isn’t this dangerous?”
“Yes, it is. Kerry, please get away from me. I’ll try to stop Natasha. Everyone else, get back! It’s dangerous.”
Victoria, not understanding the situation, urgently asked Kerry,
“Kerry, wasn’t she on our side? Why is she trying to attack us?”
“It’s a bit complicated. Just get out of here, Victoria.”
Natasha began to run towards them with tremendous momentum. The sight of the red haze rising from her was chilling.
Just as Lina and Natasha were about to clash, Kerry unconsciously shouted,
“Stop! Natasha!”
“It’s no use, Kerry! In that state, Natasha won’t listen to anyone…”
Before Lina could finish, Natasha stopped dead in her tracks.
“…”
Frozen, Natasha turned her head and stared intently at Kerry. Then she began walking towards him on all fours. What was this all of a sudden? Shit.
“Kerry, it’s dangerous!”
“Wait. I think this is okay.”
Natasha approached Kerry with a bright smile. There was no way a Natasha smiling so brightly could be dangerous.
Stopping in front of Kerry, Natasha started licking his face. Literally licking his face with her tongue.
Like a puppy.
“Heheh. That tickles, Natasha.”
Lick- Slurp-
Natasha licked Kerry, bouncing happily. Lina looked at the scene, a little dumbfounded. Even Lina had never seen this side of Natasha before.
“I don’t think she’s dangerous right now, Lina.”
“Th…That seems to be the case. Natasha, are you…back to normal?”
“Grrrrrrr!”
As Lina reached out her hand, Natasha growled fiercely. It seemed she was only docile towards Kerry.
Lina couldn’t understand the current situation.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
Finally, Kerry and Victoria returned to the castle. It had been a long three weeks. Although it was only three weeks, so much had happened.
A banquet was held at the castle.
Victoria spared no expense, throwing a feast for Lina and her companions, hailing them as the heroes who saved Prague Castle.
“Wow, this looks good.”
Kerry didn’t hesitate to dig in. He had fond memories of the food at Prague Castle.
As expected of a proper meal after so long, his tongue danced with joy.
Then, the old woman approached.
“Son-in-law! I’m so glad you’re safe. I was so shocked when I heard you fell off a cliff… Anyway, I’m glad you’re alive. You’re not someone who’d die so easily. Indeed! That’s right.”
“Thank you for your concern.”
“But say… Why is my granddaughter, who came looking for you, like this?”
Natasha growled at her grandmother from beside Kerry.
“Grrr!”
“Natasha, it’s Granny. Don’t you recognize me?”
“No, Natasha. You have to be good, remember?”
Then Natasha sat down quietly. She looked quite cute.
“Grandmother, it’s best not to approach Natasha right now.”
“…Raising a granddaughter is pointless.”
The rampaging Natasha only listened to Kerry. Since she wouldn’t listen to anyone else, Kerry had no choice but to keep her by his side.
Kerry enjoyed the banquet, making sure to feed Natasha as well.
“I’m glad you returned safely, Kerry.”
Lina approached and said.
“And I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have left my post…”
“It’s not your fault, Lina. Don’t blame yourself. It was the right decision for you to go to the rear. I thought so too at the time.”
“Kerry…”
“And… being stranded wasn’t so bad.”
“Huh?”
“Ah, I mean it was a rather novel experience.”
“I… I see. You’re very positive, Kerry.”
Victoria, eavesdropping on Kerry’s words, blushed up to her ears. But she didn’t approach Kerry to speak to him.
For some reason, she felt uneasy around him after returning to the castle.
Victoria simply looked at Kerry with a complicated expression.
‘I’m glad there were no casualties. Just as Kerry said, Lina and her companions did a great job.’
There were quite a few seriously and lightly injured, but the fact that there were no deaths was truly remarkable.
According to the knights, Lina had run around tirelessly, doing her best.
Victoria thanked Lina repeatedly. She also promised a reward, but Lina waved her hand, refusing.
It was quite amusing to see Kerry’s disapproval.
Then, Natasha, who was next to Kerry, started to regain consciousness.
“Ugh… Where… Where am I?”
“Are you alright, Natasha?”
Natasha turned her head at Kerry’s voice. Upon seeing his face, her eyes welled up with tears, and she embraced him.
“Husband! Sob sob!”
Natasha checked Kerry all over, asking if he was hurt anywhere.
It took a full day to reach Prague Castle. During that time, Natasha’s rampage didn’t subside.
Only Lina knew the reason.
‘When Natasha goes berserk… the rampage doesn’t stop until she sees blood. It was quite a troublesome drawback… but I never thought it would be resolved like this.’
During the day they spent together returning to Prague Castle, Natasha was docile.
Rather, she followed Kerry’s words like a puppy. On the way, Kerry jokingly said, “Paw!” and she obediently gave him her hand.
After hearing from others about what had happened, Natasha was incredibly embarrassed.
“But I’m glad my husband is back.”
The banquet continued merrily. The knights who had toiled to find Kerry and Victoria, as well as Lina’s party, all relieved their fatigue together.
Kerry was having fun too.
Until Victoria sent him a lewd sign with her hand.
‘Victoria… Here of all places!’
It was the same lustful signal she’d given him in the cave whenever she wanted him.
Making a circle with her hand and poking her finger through it.
‘Th… That! What if someone sees!’
Having been starved of intimacy due to Natasha’s constant presence, Victoria couldn’t hold back any longer. As soon as Natasha regained her senses, she seized the opportunity to send the signal.
Worried that someone might see Victoria’s overly explicit gesture, Kerry reluctantly nodded.
Victoria stood up and said,
“Everyone, I think I’ll retire for the night. It’s been a long journey, and I’m tired.”
The knights all expressed their understanding and let Victoria go. And not long after,
Kerry also stood up.
“I’m quite tired as well. I think I’ll go back to my room and get some sleep.”
“I understand, son-in-law. Tsk. You must have had a hard time, not being able to eat properly and all.”
Actually, it wasn’t that difficult.
“Husband…”
“Natasha, you stay here and enjoy yourself a little longer. I’m really just going to sleep… So, I’ll see you later.”
Lina quietly bowed her head in farewell. She had enjoyed the banquet enough.
As soon as Kerry stepped outside the banquet hall, as he walked down the hallway, Victoria, as expected, appeared.
“Kerry!”
“Victoria… You can’t make those lewd gestures in front of everyone. What if someone sees?”
“But… But… I couldn’t hold back any longer. Because of Natasha, I couldn’t even get close to you these past few days.”
“I know. But you can’t do that next time, okay?”
“…That’s mean. I worked up the courage to send you a signal.”
“If someone sees such a suggestive gesture, both you and I will be in trouble.”
Especially Lina and Natasha. They absolutely couldn’t see it.
“I understand. I’ll be careful next time. So, does that mean we can have fun tonight? No one else will bother us. They’ll think we’re asleep, right?”
This was a sex addiction. Addiction!
“Besides… Tonight’s the night we can do it inside.”
At her last words, Kerry’s lower body bulged. He couldn’t resist creampies. Kerry and Victoria headed towards the bedroom.
