Morning come.
The party who were now praised as heroes of the village. As the lavadillo's migration would've been devastating if left unchecked, especially when the locals simply had no in-house military presence of their own. With a sudden overabundance of meat, the group now enjoyed their breakfast along with the villagers who considered yesterday to be a blessing in disguise.
Whilst Rosemi and Robin were acting practically like sisters, enjoying their breakfast together. Although being swamped by the villagers who were both curious of their stories and another group of locals who were kneeling and praying to the half-elf who was trying to enjoy the salty-meat.
Asai could only gaze on in admiration. As much as he had become accustomed and used to people looking and staring at him, even he, would struggle to calmly eat his meal if he had such a crowd worshipping his every bite.
"That's actually kind of weird..."
Taking another bite out of the salty-beef flavoured meat, like a lobster in which the exoskeleton both protected the flesh and acted as a container. Having a fresh mind to think about it, he realised just how important a source of salt would be for such feudal people. Similar to how having a source of vitamin C was crucial for sailors.
As for Mizumi, Miku and Mimi. The three had decided to scout out ahead, to ensure their path westwards, back to Aevraury was still clear. And also, any signs for a boss variant of the lavadillos. Poking, prodding and kicking any rock that appeared unusually large.
Seeing as everyone was enjoying himself, Asai was chilling in [Hide] upon one of many rooftops. It wasn't that the man was anti-social, but rather, he still felt a lingering sensation within him, that he had failed to help the local dark-elves. That he was powerless, even when he stood at level 96, with so many skills compared to everyone else, in addition to his broken [Inventory]
Realizing that it was simply impossible to be prepared for everything, as much as he wanted to, as much as he endeavoured to.
From his vantage point, he soon noticed a carriage travelling from the direction of Ignis towards the village. The caravan itself was being pulled by two skeletal horses, whilst its rider and summoner casually sat at the front.
[??: Lvl 65]
Asai, not yet having finished his little breakfast and cup of coffee, remained seated atop the roof, watching as the carriage swiftly entered and stopped. The local dark-elves seemingly aware of its authority knelt, whilst the village elder remained the sole person standing.
Emerging, was a dark-elf Asai recognised from the palace.
[Ruby Armant: Lvl 77]
"My lady, what brings you, the royal wizard and personal advisor to Her Majesty to our humble village?"
Ruby flicked her bangs behind her hair before laying her red eyes upon the elder.
"My agents reported high-usage of magical energies here-" Her gaze followed the eyes of a few villagers who were already looking out towards the devastated plains. "-Explain, what happened here?"
Asai dropped down, showing himself entirely as he finished his cup of coffee and simply relinquishing it. Allowing it to fall before dematerializing as it entered his [Inventory]
"Greetings, Lady Ruby. I can explain on their behalf if you'd like?"
The dark-elf's expression remained immaculate, as her brain immediately connected the dots. Having already heard of his ability to devastate fields with a single magical spear, she nodded her head swiftly.
"Your Majesty, King Trichia. Please, if you would follow me. Lets talk in private." Asai nodded in confirmation as he followed the woman into her carriage, entering it to find it magically isolated from external sounds.
"A sound barrier?" "Sound-proofing?"
"Yes. This carriage is sometimes utilized by my agents, and the information we share is mostly confidential or militaristic. Not for the ears of would-be gossipers.
Having both taken a seat opposing each other. Asai couldn't help but inspect her attire and curves.
"A short tight pencil skirt, no tights- probably due to the general-temperature. White underwear, nice. A black tunic that's relatively thin and light-weight. Over-filling D cups?-"
"-Ahem*" Ruby's arms wrapped around her chest, folding as she frowned. Evidently, she was aware of where exactly Asai's gaze was lingering towards and upon. "Your Majesty, please. If you will."
"Well, the short version of the story is that, the village just happened to be in the path of around 500+ lavadillos migration path to goddess knows where. I just happened to be awake at the time, so my party and I killed them all without a thought."
"F-five-hundred!? Are you able to prove this claim?"
"Yeah, if you ask the villagers, I'm sure they'll be more than willing to show you the corpses they have stockpiled."
Ruby nodded, as she retrieved a notepad from her [Storage] to note down the numbers.
After a moment of silence, her gaze met his.
"Thank you, Asai de Trichia. If you weren't here, the village would've been... no more. And, before you ask. I'll explain.
Usually, monsters and beasts usually send out scouts of their own. To new lands or territories, before informing the rest of their nest in the new optimal and better place to settle in. So, the villagers are usually capable enough to handle these few scouts.
And having received reports of these sightings, we would then by protocol deploy our military force to handle the situation. I came today, simply because I was... Happened to be on the way here anyway. So I was expecting just a few beast scouts, when I received reports of rumbling and magical-residue.
To think they had entirely skipped their usual scouting behaviours, and to think you happened to be here to save our people. I, as royal wizard to Her Majesty and the kingdom of Ignis, I sincerely thank you."
Ruby switched over, seating herself beside Asai.
"Actually~ I know how to sincerely thank you..." Her gaze lingered around his chest, unwilling to rise up. Her hand lingering around his thigh as she stroked him slowly, waiting and seeing if he would push her away, or exit the carriage entirely.
"I heard... Emilita told me everything, about how amazing and incredible you were. And that she would soon be giving birth to your offspring. And... As the royal advisor, loyal to Her Majesty, I also need experience in the affairs between men and women.
Asai de Trichia, would you perhaps be interested in teaching me all about love-making? Please, consider this as your reward for saving our adventurers, preventing the eventual dungeon-outbreak, gifting our kingdom with so much resource and food that our citizens are able to live freely for months without worry of starvation.
And also for solving and saving this village, this village in which many of my agents grew up in."
Ruby started to undress, starting from her top, quick to pushing her heavy breasts out to squeeze them towards the human.
"I may be inexperienced, but I've read a lot of books as to what men enjoy. Please, allow me."
Asai nodded. As his cock was already hard and raring to go. Honestly, ever since she took the seat so close to him, he was enjoying her sweet and thick fragrance. Having her soft hand stroke his thigh also sent chills up towards his brain that felt amazingly good.
In addition, this solved his one regret, one that was lingering within his mind.
The desire to mate with a beautiful mage or another necromancer. In efforts to acquire more magical utilities. Even something like [Fire Ball] or [Ice Shot] would prove to be a useful addition to his growing repertoire of skills.
"Fucking hell, these dark-elves really value and prioritize strong and powerful men over love huh?"
Unbeknownst to Asai, Both Emilita and Ruby had called it love-making or making-love deliberately, because they thought that was love itself. That one had to copulate and engage in sexual-intercourse to make love, and therefore be in love, to have love and to be loved.
Hoping that having two powerful beauties within Ignis awaiting his return, that this powerful human would be more inclined to visiting them and bestowing them with prosperity. Hoping that, Asai de Trichia would eventually decide to settle down, and choosing upon Ignis to be his eternal home and nest.
