## Chapter 63 – [Interlude] Cloudy
—Splash!
I jumped into the lake as well.
“Ugh!”
It was cold, and I screamed, but the refreshing feeling was great. The water was a little higher than my waist. It was so clear that I could see the bottom. I scrubbed my body as if washing away the grime.
—Splish, splash!
“Kya-ha!”
“Aaaagh!”
Cloudy, excited, splashed water at me. The destructive power of the water cannon, derived from her immense strength, almost swept me away. Seriously?
—Splish, splash!
—Splish, splash!
—Splish, splash!
But it didn’t end with just one. I tried to scream. Water went into my nose and mouth. I tried to resist by focusing strength in my lower body, honed at the Swordsman’s Guild, but it was too much. I fell backward.
“Oh my! Katt!”
“Gahhh!”
Cloudy grabbed me, who was drifting in the water. I spat out water and exhaled.
“Are you okay? Sorry! I think I got too excited.”
Seeing Cloudy, fussing with a worried face, hurt my heart. I immediately said I was okay. I swallowed a little water, but seeing Cloudy anxious was more painful than that.
“No, I’m okay. Thanks to you, I’m all clean.”
“R-really? I won’t splash anymore, though…”
“…”
—Splish, splash!
I splashed Cloudy, who had become gloomy, in a surprise attack.
“Kyaa!”
“Ha-ha! Die!”
Cloudy, regaining her cheerful face, also splashed water at me. There was no destructive power like before in her touch. It was as gentle as any other woman’s.
The water, hit by the sunlight, scattered and sparkled. We laughed and splashed each other for a long time. It was a beautiful sight. Her, wet and naked, enjoying herself, was beautiful. Realizing that anew, ripples spread across the lake where I was waist-deep.
That’s right.
I got a serious erection. Enough to ripple the lake.
Hoo!
During the water play, the bodies of a sexually aroused man and woman naturally drew closer. I approached her, and she also approached me. We naturally embraced and kissed.
“Haa… haa…”
Cloudy’s hot breath touched my face. Her hands, which had been holding me, went down and touched my groin. Cloudy grabbed my penis and shook it. The kiss intensified. Finally, when the kiss ended, she said with a completely melted face.
“Do you… not like being outside?”
As if.
“No, I like it.”
Cloudy leaned her hands on a rock. As a man, there was no way I wouldn’t know what that meant. In that position, she lowered her waist and raised her hips. And she shook her hips seductively.
I reached out to her. Cloudy looked back at me.
“Come… now…”
I grabbed her buttocks roughly.
“Hngh…?!”
She twisted her waist greatly, as if she felt it just from that. After massaging her buttocks for a while, I slowly lowered my hand and caressed her genitals with my entire palm.
“You’re so wet…”
“Kheuheueue…!”
Sticky fluids continued to flow between my fingers. The elven physique was a little different from humans, and the amount was enormous every time I saw it. I rubbed my palm, using the slippery liquid as lubricant. Her body trembled violently.
“Heu-ut…! It’s, it’s because of the water…!”
“Because of the water?”
“Haaheueuk…!”
Her trying to suppress her moans every time I moved my hand was so cute that I was seized by the urge to tease her. I put my fingers inside Cloudy and shook them.
“Kyaat?! Kheu, kheuheut!!! S, stop! Stop… please…! I’m, coming…!”
I had figured out Cloudy’s habit; she would almost always say things like ‘stop it’ or ‘please stop’ right before she climaxed. I moved my hand a little faster.
“Kya, kyaaaaaaaat!!!”
Cloudy, who had a huge climax, burst into a shriek and convulsed. I thought she was coming too fast. Now that I had sent her once, it was time for me to do my duty as a man. I matched the tip of my glans to the entrance of her vagina.
“Haat?! W, wait a minute! I’m sensitive because it hasn’t been long since I came…”
“I can’t stand it either…!”
I thrust my fully erect penis into her vagina in one go.
“Kyaheueut??!!”
And I shook my waist. She wasn’t the only one excited by the caresses just now. I was also greatly aroused by touching her flesh. I felt like I was going to come right away.
“Kheuheuk…! I’m, coming!”
“Euh… eut! Inside, do it inside…!”
—Pshhh!
“Haaheueueut!!!!”
I ejaculated inside her womb. We climaxed at the same time. Exhausted, I leaned on Cloudy’s back, hugging her. We rested like that, overlapping each other’s bodies for a while.
“Hehe, Katt. Was it good, inside me?”
“Yeah… it’s the best, Cloudy… I don’t think I can live without you now.”
“That’s nice to hear. Then shall we go down soon? If we take too much time, the sun might set.”
We washed our bodies simply again, shook off the water, and put on our clothes. It was a little damp, but it would dry while walking.
“Let’s take a look around the lake before we go. There are a lot of plant-based materials blooming in places like this.”
“Really? Shall we look for them then?”
So we looked around the lake. Underneath the large rocks in the humid places were good spots. All sorts of grasses were blooming with moss in the shady corners underneath. I ignored the ones that weren’t very useful and only took what I needed. I was able to get a few magic herbs and other miscellaneous items.
Searching the rocks one by one in that way, I also found Limonia grass. It was the end of the 3 silver quest. I put all the collected plant-based materials into the sack.
“Ah, finally found it all. Let’s go down now. Ugh, why am I so tired?”
“You’re tired from just doing that? Really, a young man shouldn’t be like that~.”
I had been doing it all night, slept for a bit, woke up, climbed a mountain, and then did it again, so it was strange not to be tired. As I said, the difference in stamina between Cloudy and me was enormous. I was about to pass out as soon as I lay down.
“…?”
But wait.
A young man?
For some reason, I couldn’t just let that word pass.
“Hey, Cloudy. Didn’t you just say ‘young man’?”
“Huh? Y, young man? No? I didn’t?”
“No. You definitely said it.”
I stopped and stared at her face. She was somehow avoiding my gaze.
“…Tell me honestly.”
“Tell you what?”
“How old are you?”
Cloudy’s face began to turn red.
She is pretty. More beautiful than anything, and incomparably attractive. Because she was a dark elf hybrid. All elves are beautiful.
Moreover, they possessed such beauty and also had long lifespans. Even if she was a half-elf, she would likely live longer than humans, not shorter. Cloudy, of that race, called me a ‘young man’?
“…”
Tell me the truth, Cloudy.
I stared at her eyes as if accusing her.
“Ah, hahaha… Doesn’t it, doesn’t it seem late? Let’s go down quickly. The sun will set if we keep this up.”
“No, Cloudy, how…”
“Don’t say any more.”
Suddenly, Cloudy’s expression sharpened.
I couldn’t say anything because of that ominous aura.
“Hehehe… I’m just a little older than you, Katt.”
“…Then can I call you ‘Noona’?”
“Are you going to keep doing that?”
I put aside my questions.
Surely the day will come when I find out.
Anyway, it was time for the sun to set. The sun was setting, and the world was dyed crimson. At that time, we passed through the city gates.
“Heung… so where are we going now?”
“I have to go deliver this first. But I don’t know if they’ll be open at this hour.”
Since she was a black magician, it seemed like she would be open at night rather than during the day. More than anything, I wanted to get rid of this unpleasant sack as soon as possible, so I had to go. All sorts of things were packed inside. It was starting to smell now too.
I headed to Risha’s shop with Cloudy. I wondered if the thugs would flock to that slum again, but thankfully they didn’t. If they had come, I would have had to clean up a pile of corpses under Cloudy’s sword dance.
I followed my memory and soon the building came into view.
“It’s here. Let’s go in.”
“…It’s gloomy overall. I don’t really want to go in. I’ll wait outside.”
“Okay. I’ll be right out.”
I knocked on the door a couple of times and went inside.
“Yes, excuse me. I brought the requested items.”
Risha was sitting inside. It was night, so she had turned on the lights, and the light of the red lighting was swirling overall.
“Oh my, you came faster than I thought. I told you that you could come slowly.”
“Well… still, the freshness of the materials is important. You said it was okay even if they rotted, but I tried my best to bring them quickly, thinking of the witch.”
I slowly took the items out of the sack and laid them out. First, I took out the scale wolf’s hide and spread it out, then placed the other items neatly on top as if setting them up.
“How is it? I brought everything without any missing parts.”
Risha rubbed her lips with her finger and counted them.
“You brought them properly.”
“Haha, you gave me the job, so I have to work hard, right? I prepared these items with all my heart, thinking of you, Witch!”
“Is that so?”
The fact that she bought the skeleton mage’s staff that I had brought for a whopping 5 silver was something I could be grateful for again and again. And she said she would give me 3 silver for this request, so I couldn’t help but work hard.
“Hmm… you’re kind, unlike the kids these days. These days, kids have no sense of responsibility or manners…”
Risha, who said that, took out three silver coins. Well, it didn’t seem like she was the type to wander around, and the only people around here to give work to were either poor people or thugs, so I seemed like a high-quality workforce.
“Kind? If I’m a kind person, there’s no kind person in this world.”
I’m just a person who is sincere in front of money. More than anything else, it was my etiquette to show corresponding courtesy and sincerity in front of someone who paid properly. And it was common sense.
“Is that what you think because you killed people?”
“Yes?”
“You killed three more. You don’t need to worry about such things. The world is divided into lives that are worthless and lives that are not. Don’t worry too much about such things.”
“…”
“Anyway, thank you. I’ll ask you for work again next time, so come whenever you have time.”
I accepted the silver coins with a bewildered face and came out.
Cloudy was muttering something while leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. Was it the meditation I saw last time? I held out the silver coins in front of her.
“Cloudy, I made money. I’ll buy you something delicious.”
“…Huh? Oh, you’re out.”
“Tell me everything you want to eat. I’m not lying, I’ll buy it all for you today.”
“Something I want to eat…?”
The corners of her eyes curved.
“What I want to eat is right here?”
“…”
Tap, tap. The place she tapped was my groin.
Well, that’s what I expected.
I ended up being messed up again at the inn.
