Episode 15
"Wait here."
I left Vindel standing outside and entered the building.
As expected, Isti was there. Apparently, no one had dared approach her, because there was no one near the seat where she was sitting.
Everyone was whispering about Isti while watching her from a few steps away, but Isti paid them no attention at all and was lost in thought.
It was impossible, but I was afraid she might ask who I was when I spoke to her.
"Decal."
Just then, someone called my name.
A blond man who had been sitting in the corner was approaching me with a grim expression.
It was Sael릭, who had been utterly humiliated in front of the Bordeaux Dungeon earlier today.
"Your name is Decal, right?"
"It is."
Had he investigated me?
Sael릭's business seemed obvious. He intended to fight me to restore his honor.
"I formally request a rematch…."
Just as Sael릭 began to bring it up, I suddenly lost my balance and staggered.
"Darling!"
Isti leaped into my arms.
As if to say that I had been worrying for nothing, Isti looked up at me with a bright expression.
"You're back."
"Yeah. I missed you, so I ran back as fast as I could."
I played along with Isti's coquettishness and gently ruffled her hair.
The gazes of everyone around us stabbed into me. I had no idea what the others were thinking, but Sael릭, standing in front of me, seemed quite shocked.
He made no effort at all to control his expression. He looked as though he had witnessed something that should never have happened.
"Did you have something to say?"
When I spoke to Sael릭, Isti naturally turned to look at him as well.
Sael릭 stiffened.
"No… It's nothing."
"Then we'll be going."
I went straight to the reception desk.
"How may I help you?"
The receptionist, Ashelin, looked quite tense because of Isti standing beside me.
"I've returned after completing an exploration mission."
I placed five soul stones on the reception desk.
"I've confirmed them. Would you like to have them exchanged right away?"
"Yes."
The five soul stones were exchanged for five gold and forty-five silver.
It was almost exactly the amount Vindel had mentioned.
"Your extermination results are at the maximum. How far did you explore?"
"I made it to the fourth basement floor."
"The lowest level."
Ashelin asked several more questions about the dungeon, and carefully recorded my answers as I responded.
"Congratulations on completing the mission. This is your reward."
Apparently, the mission-completion reward was separate, because I received another ten gold.
"Since this was your first completed mission after registering as an adventurer, you may apply for a license."
"Please do."
"Very well. Please visit us again in two days."
Today's earnings came to fifteen gold and forty-five silver.
It was the first money I had earned since coming to this other world.
"Shall we head out now?"
"Yes."
Isti pressed herself tightly against me.
She looked as though she never wanted to let go again.
Vindel was waiting for me outside.
"Vindel. Good work today. How much should I give you?"
"One gold, please."
Huh? That's all he wants?
I was so dumbfounded that I was briefly at a loss for words.
"…Eighty silver would be fine, too."
Seeing that I wasn't saying anything, Vindel apparently misunderstood and began lowering the price himself.
"Come here."
I gave Vindel seven gold.
"This is your share."
"Is it really all right for me to receive this much?"
"In exchange, will you run an errand for me?"
I took the spellbook I had stored in my inventory back out and handed it to Vindel.
"Sell this for me and bring me the payment."
"Are you out of your mind, sir? What will you do if I run away with this?"
"I trust you."
Vindel looked back and forth between me and the spellbook with a stunned expression, as though he had lost the ability to speak.
"If you can't find a buyer, you can just bring it back. Will you take care of it?"
"Yes! I'll do my best."
"Good. Off you go."
Vindel hugged the spellbook I had given him tightly to his chest and left.
In truth, I didn't care what happened to the spellbook.
Since I was satisfied as long as I could control the living, I had no interest in necromancy.
I didn't want to bother with dead things, either.
I had simply shown Vindel kindness because I had felt like it.
If I had really wanted to receive the payment, I could have hypnotized him, but I hadn't.
"Decal. Who was that boy just now?"
Isti asked me.
"The kid who helped me while I was at the dungeon today."
"I can do dungeons well, too…."
Oh, was she feeling left out? I couldn't help but smile.
"You weren't there. It couldn't be helped. Shall we go together next time?"
"I'll protect Decal."
Being guarded by a diamond-ranked hunter. Just thinking about it made me feel reassured.
"Let's get something to eat. Is there anything you don't eat?"
"I don't like spicy food."
"Do you mostly eat vegetables?"
"I like meat."
Good.
I found a meat restaurant on the main street and went inside.
The meat restaurant was generally just as I had imagined. There was a brazier in the center of each table, and the meat was brought out according to the order.
While we waited for our order, Isti kept looking around.
"What's wrong?"
"I've never been here before."
"But you like meat."
"Usually, I catch it and cook it myself."
That was surprising in its own way.
"Are you all right with so many people staring at you?"
"Yes. I'm used to it."
Come to think of it, attracting attention was something unusual for me, but for Isti it must have been part of everyday life.
Perhaps having strangers pass by without paying any attention was what would have been unusual for Isti.
What would meat from another world taste like?
Compared to the modern world, where cows and pigs were raised as livestock, it had to be lower quality, right?
But when I tasted it, it was surprisingly decent.
"How is it?"
"It's delicious."
Isti seemed satisfied, too.
After eating our fill, we paid eighty silver for the meal.
"Shall we go rest now?"
Isti nodded.
There was somewhere I wanted to show Isti today.
First, I rented a room at the Water and Grass Inn.
"Isti. Look at this."
"Hmm?"
I took out the
"A big shell."
"Take my hand."
Without any suspicion, Isti clasped my hand tightly.
I used the
"This place is…."
Isti usually didn't show much change in expression, making it difficult to tell unless one looked closely, but she seemed surprised.
"Let's look around and see if there's a room you like."
"Are you the owner of this castle, Decal?"
"Something like that."
I picked a room and went inside.
Magnificent. Antique furniture befitting the atmosphere of the castle and a luxurious bed welcomed us.
It was strange how the atmosphere had changed so much simply because we had moved to a different location.
I naturally pulled Isti into my arms and kissed her.
"Mmh… Mm."
Isti clung to me as though she had been waiting for this.
Instead, she took the initiative, kissing me and twining her tongue with mine.
"It was hard holding myself back."
"Holding back what?"
"Making love with Decal."
"Sex?"
Isti's cheeks flushed slightly.
"…I don't want to answer."
"Don't you like this?"
I gently stroked the small of Isti's back and kissed her neck.
"Ah, ah…."
Isti's body shuddered.
"It feels so good it gives me chills."
"Will you make me feel good, too?"
This time, Isti kissed me.
When I stuck out my tongue, she pursed her lips and sucked on it.
It was service she performed instinctively.
I lowered my pants and took out my erect penis.
My suppressed cock sprang free and pressed against Isti's body.
"Ah…."
"Grab it with your hand."
Isti took hold of my cock as I instructed.
Perhaps because she knew it was a delicate area, she didn't seem to know how much force to use, merely letting it rest in her hand.
"Grip it and move your hand up and down."
"Like this?"
Isti quickly figured out how to give me a handjob and began moving her hand.
Even then, she didn't stop kissing me.
"Mwah… slurp. Mmm… Does this feel good?"
"It's the best."
"I learned something new."
Isti smiled shyly as she looked at me.
"Teach me more. If it makes Decal happy, I'll learn anything."
"Then this time, put it between your thighs."
"My thighs?"
Perhaps the request seemed strange, because she tilted her head.
"I've wanted to try it ever since I first saw you."
"Do I just put it there?"
Isti placed my penis between her thighs as I asked.
"Oh."
The sensation was incredible.
As though she had realized what I wanted, Isti squeezed her thighs together.
With only a pair of panties between us beneath her short skirt, the sensation of her vulva and thighs was transmitted directly to my penis.
"Ngh!"
These were dangerous thighs.
Seeing my reaction, Isti smiled.
“Do you like my thighs?”
“They’re amazing.”
“You can do as much as you want.”
I grasped Isti’s waist and moved back and forth, rubbing my cock against her cunt.
Isti squeezed her legs just right··· and watched my face with eyes full of curiosity.
I felt a strange sense of humiliation, but I didn’t dislike it.
I was close to climaxing.
I pulled out my cock and came all over Isti’s thighs and cunt.
With her skirt hiked up, Isti gazed blankly at my cock as it ejaculated.
Then, with her thighs covered in cum, she looked up at me and said,
“···Did it feel good?”
I made Isti lie facedown on the soft bed.
“Ah.”
“Raise your hips.”
Isti obediently lifted her hips into the air.
I pushed my cock, which had only just ejaculated, inside Isti’s cunt.
“Ngh···!”
I felt strong resistance, but compared to yesterday, it slid in all the way with relative ease.
I immediately began pounding Isti’s cunt.
“Mmh! Hnn! Mmh!”
So that the suggestion’s effects would quickly rise to their peak.
I stirred Isti’s cunt as much as I pleased.
“Nnngh···! Ah, haaang.”
Isti buried her face in the bedsheets and clenched her toes tightly.
The fact that she was already feeling this much told me that the suggestion had grown far stronger than yesterday.
The change in Isti’s feelings must have had an effect as well.
“Mmm··· I don’t like it when you stop.”
Isti gently swayed her hips from side to side.
“So impatient.”
I began pounding Isti’s cunt again.
I thrust in without restraint, sliding all the way inside and scraping along the walls of Isti’s vagina.
“Ahh, this feels good♥ So good♥”
“Should I come inside?”
“···Haa, wai, mm, Dekal, do you··· love me···?”
“I love you, Isti.”
I embraced Isti from behind and whispered into her ear.
My hips moved like a beast’s, heightening the feeling of climax inside Isti’s cunt before I came all at once.
“Hngh♥”
An unbelievable amount of cum gushed out, considering it was only my second time.
When I released Isti’s waist and pulled out my cock, she collapsed facedown onto the bed and trembled faintly.
She spread her legs wide, as though she could barely keep her body upright.
Yet my body forgot its fatigue and grew hard again.
Anyone would be the same with Isti as their partner.
I climbed on top of Isti and penetrated her again.
“N-no, don’t. Not now··· don’t···.”
Ignoring her, I stirred her cunt with my stiff, erect cock.
“Haa, mm, Dekal, wait, I··· it feels strange···.”
I tightly restrained both of Isti’s arms as she moved as though trying to escape, then put my weight into it and pounded her relentlessly.
“Ngh, mmph♥ No, nooo. Ohgod♥”
Isti’s cunt clenched tightly around my cock.
With her arms caught in my grasp, she helplessly endured my penetration, her legs kicking up and down and patting the innocent bedsheets.
“~~!”
Each time I pounded Isti’s thoroughly soaked cunt, the sounds of wetness and flesh colliding echoed through the room.
“Hya, hyaa, ngh······!”
“Isti, I love you.”
I bit her ear and whispered.
“Ngh···! Hnn! Mmh···! Me too··· hic!”
I came inside Isti’s tightly clenching cunt.
The final climax felt so good it made me dizzy.
Isti trembled faintly as she received my cum, seemingly lost in the intense afterglow.
Exhausted, I lay on my side and fell asleep just like that.
When I opened my eyes, Isti was sleeping in my arms.
Could there be a more satisfying morning than this?
As though she had sensed my presence, Isti slowly opened her eyes.
“Did you sleep well?”
This time, I was the one asking.
Isti smiled with her eyes, then buried her face in my arms again.
