Chapter 28 – With Elsie (5)
Having received 9 gold for the Rage Fang and 2 silver for the herb gathering request, Elsie and I left the Adventurer’s Guild with elated hearts.
“Hum hum hum~”
The sound of 9 gold coins jingling in my pouch made my heart sing.
“We got 9 gold! That’s great, Rent.”
“Yeah, I didn’t expect to earn this much. With about 3 gold, we shouldn’t have any trouble with inn fees for a while.”
Let’s save up a bit more before sending money to Mom and Dad.
“3 gold? Why 3 gold, Rent?”
“Well, if we split it between Elsie and Noah, it’s exactly 3 gold each.”
“Oh, no, Rent! That money is what Rent earned by catching the Rage Fang alone! We shouldn’t split it!”
Elsie was against splitting the 9 gold.
Of course, I was the one who caught it, but we’re a party now.
In the future, I’ll be the main force of our party. I’ll be the one taking down the most monsters.
But if I monopolize the money every time I defeat a monster?
I don’t think that’s a party anymore.
Of course, it wouldn’t be right to split everything equally every time, but this time the money is perfectly divisible, so I think it’s okay to split it.
Besides, Noah spent two-thirds of her entire fortune to have sex with me.
Noah needs funds right now too.
“It’s okay, Elsie. We’re a party now.”
“But just because we’re a party doesn’t mean we should split what Rent caught alone…”
“Then just listen to me this time, Elsie. From next time, let’s discuss with Noah how we should split it. Today, I’m in a good mood, so I want to divide it equally into three.”
Elsie looked unconvinced, but nodded.
“…Okay. That money is Rent’s, so I’ll follow Rent’s opinion.”
“Thank you, Elsie.”
“No, I’m the one who should be grateful for receiving Rent’s money. What will Rent do now?”
“I…”
It’s still too early for lunch.
If I were alone, I would have rushed into the forest and spent my time in a storm of self-pleasure, but Elsie is by my side.
There’s also the option of going back to the inn to rest.
But I’d rather not choose that option if possible.
I’m a little scared of meeting Tina again until dinner.
Besides, I also want to talk with Elsie a bit more.
Time to get closer with party members is precious.
“I want to look around the city a bit more. So, Elsie… can you come with me? Even though I got a tour yesterday, I’m not familiar with the roads yet.”
I tried to persuade Elsie by using the fact that I don’t know this city well yet.
“Yes, of course!”
Elsie accepted with a kind smile.
Indeed, Elsie deserves the nickname of a saint.
“Where would Rent like to go first?”
Elsie asked me where I wanted to go, being considerate of me.
I think it’s good to mention a place related to Elsie here.
It feels good to be able to explain something you know about.
I’m confident that if I were asked to explain or discuss my favorite positions, AV scenarios, or manga developments, I would happily ramble on.
“I want to go to the temple. Yesterday, I only looked at the outside, so I’m curious about what the inside of the temple looks like.”
Elsie’s face brightened.
“Okay! Then let’s go quickly, Rent! The inside of the temple is magnificent and really beautiful! I’m sure Rent will like it too!”
This is the first time I’ve seen Elsie’s face so excited like a child.
Just seeing Elsie’s bright smile, not just her kind smile, and her excitement makes going to the temple worthwhile.
A situation where she shakes her breasts and gives sexual service with a kind and maternal smile is good, but a situation where she happily gives sexual service with a bright and wide smile, which makes me feel more familiar, is also good.
The lewd priestess Elsie version is closer to the latter, but there’s a clear difference between doing it after being completely corrupted by pleasure and enjoying sexual service or sex with a pure heart.
The attitude of enjoying sex itself in everyday life gives a subtle charm that is different from corruption.
It’s the difference between lewdness that one is already aware of and lewdness that one thinks is normal.
Of course, there’s only a difference.
I like both very much!
◈
I followed Elsie into the temple.
The temple was built with white building materials, giving it a pure white impression overall.
It felt similar to the magnificent churches I saw on TV in my past life.
As we entered the temple, a female priestess approached us.
She was a priestess who gave off the impression of an intelligent senior, wearing glasses.
Of course, she was wearing the same fantasy priestess outfit as Elsie, with her thighs exposed.
Her thigh flesh was slightly visible with every step she took.
I think it’s very good.
Suddenly, a lewd scenario came to mind where an intelligent senior female priestess is demonstrating sexual service to young Elsie and other priestess candidates.
On the outside, the senior priestess is trying to set an example for her juniors.
But the skillful waist movements of the high-ranking priestess, who is playing the role of the one receiving the service, reveal her lewd moaning to her juniors!
The beautiful moment when the excitement of sex sprouts in the hearts of young Elsie and other priestess candidates at the sight of the lewd side of the usually strict and kind senior priestess that they had never seen before!
Thank you for the material!
“Elsie, what brings you here? Is the person next to you hurt?”
The senior priestess spoke to Elsie in a strict yet slightly kind tone.
“No, Priestess Misha. Rent next to me wanted to see the temple, so I’m here to guide him.”
“I see.”
The female priestess called Misha put her hands together and bowed to me.
“Welcome to the temple. May the blessing of Solis be upon you.”
“Thank you. Ah…”
Surely, “May the blessing of Solis be upon you” is a greeting unique to the temple.
Then, I should follow suit.
I put my hands together, bowed my head, and said, imitating Misha.
“May the blessing of Solis be upon you, Misha.”
When I raised my head, Misha’s eyes were wide open.
Did I do something wrong?
I looked at Elsie to ask, and Elsie was also surprised with her eyes wide open.
Huh? Did I really make a mistake?
I lowered my body and asked Elsie in a small voice.
“Elsie. Did I do something wrong?”
Elsie snapped out of it and shook her head.
“Ah, no. Um, Rent… why did Rent say that just now?”
“Huh? I just… saw Misha saying it and thought that’s how everyone greets each other at the temple, so I followed suit. It’s not a greeting that only priests can say, right?”
It was Misha who answered my question.
“No. Rent’s response was very correct.”
“Ah, is that so?”
“Yes. I’m the one who was rude.”
Misha, who had a strict impression, gave a gentle smile.
“Usually, adventurers who are not regular temple-goers don’t greet us like that. I was surprised that Rent greeted us so politely.”
“I see…”
How bad are the greetings of other adventurers usually that they are so surprised by just this?
“Ugh!”
At that moment, an injured adventurer entered the temple behind us.
A female priestess approached the adventurer.
“What brings you…”
Before the priestess could finish speaking, the adventurer yelled.
“Can’t you see! Treatment, treatment! You money-grubbing bitches!”
“…Please follow me, I’ll guide you to the treatment room.”
“Treat me right here!”
“If you want treatment, you need to pay the corresponding amount at the counter in the treatment room…”
“Damn bitches! Is money all you care about! Huh!”
Misha’s expression slightly hardened and she approached. It seems she thought it was too much to leave it to one priestess.
“…Do you intend to receive treatment?”
“Isn’t that why I came here! Get out of my way!”
“Kyaa!”
The adventurer pushed the priestess and walked towards what was called the treatment room.
“I’m sorry, Rent. I have work to do, so I’ll excuse myself. Elsie, please guide Rent well.”
“Yes… Priestess Misha.”
Misha went to the priestess who had just been pushed.
“…That’s harsh.”
I can understand why Elsie and Misha are surprised.
“Not all adventurers are like that. However… most of them are on edge because they are injured.”
Certainly, I can understand that they would be on edge if they fought monsters and got injured.
But I think it’s a problem to act like that.
A manga-like scenario comes to mind where an adventurer who went to the temple because of an injury but was turned away because he didn’t have money, uses his last strength to violate a priestess.
In other words, such behavior is only allowed in fantasies, and it would cause many problems in reality.
“Shouldn’t they be kicked out if they act like that?”
“There are… some opinions like that. But the priestesses working in the treatment room refuse.”
“Why?”
“Because just because they receive treatment in the treatment room… doesn’t mean all adventurers survive. When they think about the adventurers who died in the treatment room even after being treated, they say it’s hard to refuse them no matter how they act.”
Oh, they are philanthropic priestesses.
“However, treatment is impossible if they can’t prepare the money. If the temple provides all treatments for free, the temple would surely not be able to sustain itself.”
It seems that the priestesses tolerate such behavior because of their guilt towards the adventurers who die even after being treated.
Moreover, it’s the opinion of the priestesses in the treatment room who receive the harshest treatment. It wouldn’t be easy to argue against it.
And even if an adventurer is in a life-threatening situation, the reality is that they have to be strict about money for the sake of the temple’s survival.
It’s a headache-inducing problem.
“I’m sorry, Rent. I was looking forward to coming to the temple, but you had to see this scene…”
“It’s okay. I would have seen it someday if I were an adventurer anyway. It’s not something Elsie needs to apologize for.”
If I keep bringing up this topic, Elsie’s mood will also become gloomy, so let’s change the subject.
“More importantly, what’s Elsie’s favorite place in the temple?”
“Ah… My favorite place is the chapel. Please follow me.”
Elsie smiled as usual and led the way.
◈
I followed Elsie into the chapel.
White pillars and long chairs arranged in a uniform manner.
The wide space gave a sense of grandeur, and the colorful stained glass that filled the ceiling was spectacular.
The stained glass depicted various scenes.
Roughly speaking, it seemed to depict scenes from mythology.
And at the very front of the chapel, there was a huge statue of a woman.
She had a benevolent smile, long hair that reached her waist, and was holding a staff in one hand… a voluptuous naked female statue.
Wow.
“Elsie… is that perhaps…”
“Yes, it’s a statue modeled after the appearance of Solis. It’s said to have been made based on the appearance that an elf saint who existed in the past saw in a dream.”
An elf saint.
I don’t know who she is, but she did a very good job!
Frankly speaking, the statue of Solis has a quality that gives a very vivid feeling.
And she’s a beauty, voluptuous, and naked!
It can be a very good masturbation material.
I thought that Solis would be the first masturbation target for many male followers.
Surely, there must be at least one or two men who secretly come to the chapel at night and masturbate while looking at the statue of Solis illuminated by the moonlight.
Looking closely, the naked Solis appears here and there in the pictures reflected in the stained glass.
It’s like watching a public, mythology-based erotic painting through stained glass.
“How is it, Rent? I like this chapel. The stained glass is also very beautiful… and looking at Solis makes me feel at peace.”
Elsie had the face of a devout follower.
Unlike Elsie, I feel like I would be seething with lust if I secretly looked at Solis alone.
“I don’t know much since it’s my first time… but I think Solis is very beautiful.”
I think she’s incredibly sexy.
The stonemason who made the statue must have made it with a lot of lust.
Because the voluptuous breasts and buttocks made of stone feel textured just by looking at them!
Moreover, the fact that the nipples, areolas, and even the vagina are explicitly expressed is proof!
If you go closer and look up from below, wouldn’t even the anal wrinkles be expressed?
“Yes, I think so too.”
I feel a slight prick of conscience because of Elsie’s pure smile.
Does Elsie really not have any thoughts even when looking at that naked statue?
Perhaps she’s so used to it that such thoughts have already disappeared.
“Rent. If it’s okay with you, would you pray to Solis with me?”
“Pray?”
“Yes. We’ll pray to Solis for the safety and prosperity of our party in the future.”
“That sounds good. Is there a procedure or a set way to pray?”
“No. You just put your hands together and pray to Solis. Let’s sit here and do it.”
Elsie sat down on one of the many empty long chairs, and I sat next to Elsie.
As soon as I sat down, Elsie immediately put her hands together and began to pray.
“Solis, please bestow your blessings upon us.”
I followed Elsie.
“Solis, please bestow your blessings upon us.”
While praying, I also asked Solis for forgiveness in my heart.
I will be relying on you a lot as a masturbation material related to mythology and temples in the future!
This is also part of promoting lust for life, that is, reproduction, so please forgive me!
