for Advance Chapter
Only the two of us were left at the campsite.
"What is it? Laugh if you want. Is it really that funny?" Shasha rolled her eyes at my attempt to stifle a laugh.
"Sorry, it's just so ridiculous..." I let out a chuckle and reached out a hand, kneading Shasha's breast. The soft texture made my fingers sink in. "You let the Hero's hand touch your tits just now, didn't you?"
"Mm-hmm. What? Are you jealous?"
"Over a mere human? Why would I be jealous? Besides, I'm the one sending you to his bed. Eventually, not just these tits, but your very entrance will be enjoyed by the Hero. That's how he'll become obsessed with you. Hahaha."
As I spoke, I reached inside Shasha's clothes, my large hand grabbing her soft, plump breast, squeezing the smooth flesh into different shapes. I also gave her erect nipples a pinch.
"Mmm... if you play with them now... the Hero will see my nips sticking out through my clothes later. I'm not wearing any underwear, you know."
Shasha's eyes were misty with lust, and she panted as she let me ravish her. I pulled my hand back—not because I cared about what she said, but because my divine sense detected that the Hero and Nami were returning.
"Sorry to have worried you both," Elnor said apologetically.
"I'm sorry... it was my fault earlier," Nami said with her head down.
"Oh, no, Nami-san. No need to apologize. I understand how you feel," Shasha said quickly, her face flushed red (a result of my recent "handling").
As expected... Shasha-san really is a good person. She has such a broad heart...
Thinking of "broad hearts," Elnor's eyes drifted toward her chest. Hmm... so big and white. Wait, why are there two little bumps? Could Shasha-san be... not wearing a bra? No, surely not. I must be seeing things. I shouldn't think such lewd thoughts about Shasha-san.
I noticed the Hero's gaze and smirked inwardly. Choosing my succubus wife to seduce the Hero was definitely the right move. Facing tits like those, a pure virgin boy stood no chance.
The Hero also looked at me, thinking that this man was also 3rd-tier. But what was his relationship with Shasha-san? Were they a couple?
At that thought, his mood inexplicably dropped. After hesitating, he gathered his courage and asked:
"Um, Renault-san, what is your relationship with Shasha-san?"
I was surprised but replied casually:
"Me? We just met on the road. We're just ordinary companions."
Great! That means I have a chance...
Wait, no! I decided I was going to marry Nami. Why am I being so unfaithful?
But... I'm the Hero. It's normal for a Hero to have a harem, right? And Shasha-san looks like she really admires me.
Elnor smiled to himself. He was starting to look forward to this journey.
A few days later.
"Shasha, another buff, please!"
"Coming, Lord Hero!"
Elnor swung his sword down for the final blow, and the massive Magic Wolf King collapsed.
"Phew... that wasn't easy. But with this..."
He opened his panel.
Hero: Elnor Age: 18 Level: 30 (0/1000) (+13 attribute points) Stamina: 23 Strength: 25 Agility: 23 Sexual Skill: 4 Skills: Swordplay Lv.2 (56/100), Combat Lv.1 (79/100) (1 skill point available)Reaching Level 30 gave him an extra 10 attribute points, and his base attributes had increased by 10. For the past few days, he hadn't assigned his points, unable to decide between Stamina and Agility. Though the EXP required for Level 30+ was much higher, he felt incredibly powerful—a world of difference from his old self.
Elnor clenched his fist. Good. One step closer to defeating the Demon Lord!
He looked at Shasha with immense gratitude. These past few days, he wouldn't have been able to level up nearly this fast without her help.
As for Nami... while she couldn't help much in combat, she took care of the group's meals.
However... he was already 3rd-tier, while she was still stuck at 1st-tier. Though he didn't blame her, he couldn't help but feel she was falling behind. Why can't she work harder and reach 3rd-tier like Shasha-san? Even 2rd-tier would be fine...
Perhaps due to the comparison, Elnor felt a hint of disappointment in his childhood friend. But he quickly shook it off; Nami had been with him through many hardships before this.
"Lord Hero... congratulations on breaking through to the 3rd-tier!"
Shasha hugged him with a delighted smile.
"Wha— Shasha-san! Um!"
Elnor felt Shasha's full breasts pressing against him, his face turning beet red.
"What is it? Do you dislike me, Lord Hero?" Shasha stared at him with a hurt expression.
"No, no! How could I?"
"Good... since you broke through today, let's go back to town and have a feast to celebrate! It's on me."
"Hahaha, I couldn't possibly let you pay..."
I leaned against a tree, watching Shasha's performance and raising an eyebrow. Over the past few days of adventuring, the "bond" between Shasha and the Hero had grown rapidly. Combined with Shasha's "accidental" physical contact, I could tell the Hero now trusted her implicitly.
Nami, on the other hand, was frequently left out. I watched her with interest; she looked miserable. She had wanted to congratulate her childhood friend first, but Shasha had beaten her to it. Nami's raised hand hung in the air, with nowhere to go.
"But... I was here first... why did it turn out like this?"
The girl bit her lip, trying to suppress her sadness. Her eyelashes trembled as if she were about to cry. Is it because I'm not strong enough? Because I can't help him?
She remembered Elnor's words. If she weren't just a 1st-tier support, if she had more power, she could help him. Maybe she would be the one holding him now.
A look of resolve appeared on Nami's face. She seemed to have thought of something and walked toward me.
"Um, Renault-san, you're very strong, aren't you? Could you give me some guidance? How can I get stronger quickly?"
Oh? She's tougher than she looks. How touching...
But since you've come to me, I'll certainly help you get "stronger."
"Getting stronger... I do have a way, but I don't know if you can handle it."
"As long as I can get stronger and help Elnor, I'll do anything!" Nami said with a determined look.
I smiled. This girl was practically delivering herself to me. She was quite cute; under normal circumstances, she would have been the Hero's primary wife.
I pulled out a small glass vial and handed it to Nami. Inside was a shimmering, violet-red liquid that seemed to pulse with mana.
"What is this?" Nami asked, her eyes wide with curiosity.
"This is the blood of a rare monster I once found. If you drink it, you'll gain the power to use 3rd-tier magic. However, the side effects will affect your body and mind."
She gasped and hesitated. To her, such a forbidden item was terrifying.
"It's okay. I'm just giving you an option. It's up to you." I didn't take the vial back; I simply walked away, leaving Nami to her thoughts.
Heh. The 'monster blood' thing was a lie. That's just Demon blood. Drinking it will boost her mana, but... her body will gradually transform into that of a demon.
