With the warm, soft, and fragrant girl in his arms.
Ye Feng stroked Elysia's elf ears. They were pointed and slender, with an extremely smooth and pleasant feel.
"Eek—"
Elysia's body trembled, and she shook her head like a puppy that had fallen into water.
"Don't move around. I'm just touching. But if you start rubbing against me, I won't be responsible if the gun goes off by accident."
"..."
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Elysia had no choice but to stop moving, wrinkling her nose in displeasure. "How can you be like this? Girls are as delicate as flowers."
"It's because you're too cute, Elysia. Smooth skin, a soft waist... you're prime material to become a meat toilet."
"?? Wh-What?"
"But don't get complacent. Your forehand is clumsy, your backhand is weak, and your movements are too sloppy... a common ailment of beginners. No matter. With proper practice under my guidance, everything will get better."
"I would never be proud of something like that!"
Elysia puffs her cheeks.jpg
"Just kidding."
Ye Feng stroked Elysia's ear, satisfied. "Speaking of which, I've always had a thing for gentle elves with large chests. You really satisfy most of my fetishes, Elysia."
"...Then it's a deal. You're only allowed to touch my ears."
"Still thinking about 'how to minimize the losses' at a time like this? As expected of the Pink Elf. Alright, I promise you. For today, I'll only play with your ears."
Hearing Ye Feng's guarantee, Elysia let out a small sigh of relief... He didn't seem like the type to break his word.
However...
Feeling the rough pads of his fingertips brushing against her pointed ears was like having a faint electric current run along her nerve endings.
So my ears really are sensitive.
Even Eden and Aponia had barely ever touched them.
And even if they had, it was only a light touch, never like this crude, bear-like fondling from Ye Feng.
Elysia lowered her gaze and tried to regulate her breathing, but a strange odor suddenly entered her nostrils.
It was only then that the Pink Elf was shocked to realize that her body, which felt like it had just been bathed in milk, still carried an unpleasant scent.
Furthermore, she hadn't changed out of her long gloves and thigh-high stockings, which were soaked through with sweat and various other fluids.
Now, in the quiet autumn night, they were emitting an unbearable smell...
"Um, I'm really begging you now, can you let me go?"
"Oh? Why?"
Elysia's gaze darted away.
She was a girl who was always mindful of "beauty."
To be covered in filth like this, even while being held in the arms of a strange man, was an extremely undignified matter for the flawless maiden.
"It's alright. Even if you're covered in mud, Elysia, I'd still be happy to hold you. Sluuurp~ I'll lick it~"
"Eh?"
Ye Feng opened his mouth and took Elysia's ear into it, sucking on it like a popsicle.
The elf maiden's body tensed up again. Her small hands pressed against Ye Feng's chest, her shoulders trembling slightly.
The streetlight illuminated the bench. Elysia was curled up in Ye Feng's embrace, her pink hair cascading down.
Rustle~
A night breeze blew from the maple grove behind them, caressing Elysia's cheeks. The cool wind helped to clear her increasingly hazy mind.
"Besides, the sweat and other things on your body were all my doing, you know."
"..."
Elysia pressed the side of her face against Ye Feng's firm chest. "Can I ask you a question?"
"Of course. Whatever you want to ask, as long as I know the answer, I'll tell you."
Elysia's gaze grew serious. Her small hands clenched slightly, and she seemed a little nervous.
"...In the coffee shop, were you the only one?"
"Indeed, it was only me who touched your body."
Phew~
Thank goodness. It wasn't the worst-case scenario.
Considering the shower-like amount... Elysia had been truly terrified.
Still, why did he emphasize 'who touched your body'?
"Wait, could it be that there were others present at the time?"
"Ah, there was indeed."
A chill went through Elysia's heart again.
Ye Feng said, "It was the Herrscher of the Void."
"The Herrscher of the Void?"
Elysia looked up, her star-bright eyes staring at Ye Feng in disbelief.
She knew, of course, that he didn't mean the Herrscher of the Void from the Previous Era.
Even while staying in the [Elysian Realm], Elysia was generally aware that Herrschers had descended upon the outside world.
The World Serpent operative named [Raven] whom she had observed in secret last time seemed to be a victim of the Herrscher of the Void.
"That's right. You and the Herrscher of the Void are quite entangled, aren't you, Ely? In the last civilization, it was you who shot down the Herrscher of the Void. And in this era, the Herrscher of the Void personally watched you fall into the abyss. This must be fate."
"..."
Elysia was silent for a moment before saying, "...To actually call yourself the abyss."
"What would be a better metaphor? I think 'abyss' is quite fitting; it allows people to fall continuously. Is there anything else you want to ask, Ely? Ah, right. You must be completely clueless about this world, right?"
Ye Feng was very considerate. Without waiting for Elysia to ask, he took the initiative to explain his world and the matter of the NPCs.
Elysia blinked, finding it hard to believe.
If what Ye Feng said was true, what was the difference between him and a real god?
"So, this is your paradise... and my consciousness just arrived here?"
"What else? You're just a memory simulation. It's not like you have a physical body."
That wasn't entirely accurate. In the [Elysian Realm], there wasn't much of a difference between a memory simulation and a physical body.
At the very least, Elysia hadn't immediately noticed the difference between the NPC's body and her simulation.
Ye Feng said, "What's here is the real, genuine physical body of the Previous Era's Elysia."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because Snake and I examined it very thoroughly."
"Snake?"
"Mebius."
"You mentioned her before," Elysia said.
"Mhm. She came in here a long time ago. What? Did Snake not tell you anything about this place?"
"Huh?!!"
Elysia's face froze.
It was only now that she finally understood the "hidden meaning" in Mebius's words from before.
All that talk about betting on the Herrscher of the Void, the cream puffs...
It all added up!
Mebius... she's been a naughty girl, hasn't she.
Ye Feng stopped stroking Elysia's ear and, with a perfectly straight face, asked her, "Alright, we still have plenty of time, so you can ask your questions slowly. In the meantime, can I lick your 'beta'?"
"??"
Elysia's eyes went wide. What is this guy talking about?
Her pure brain was refusing to comprehend it.
Then she heard Ye Feng say, "I'm giving you a chance to give me a taste of my own medicine."
"...Wh-What?"
"I just sprayed you with my fluids. You can spray me back."
"?"
You call that a taste of my own medicine?
No matter how you look at it, I'm the one getting the short end of the stick!
"No way!"
