Ankoku Kishi Monogatari (WN)

「Fufufu. And you're Totona, I presume? The daughter of that filth who dares to claim himself as the God King, Oudith. I wonder what your blood would taste like if I sucked you dry? But, I guess that won't happen today; we're retreating.」

Said Zafrada as red mist sprouted from her body.

The red mist spread across a wide area at once, heading straight toward us while avoiding the lamias, gorgons, and giants. It was as if it was alive.

「EVERYONE GET AWAY FROM THE MIST!!」

Everyone didn't wait for another second and tried to escape from the mist as soon as Totona warned them.

The red mist moved as if it tried to protect Zafrada and her comrades. It even attacked Reiji, thus stopping the fight between him and Dahark.

「WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, ZAFRADA?! DON'T DISTURB MY FIGHT!!!」

Dahark shouted at Zafrada.

「I refuse, Daha-kun. Arnak's troops are heading to this place. We have to leave right away.」

Dahark clicked his tongue the moment he heard the news.

「TCH!! LET'S SETTLE THIS FIGHT ANOTHER TIME, HERO OF LIGHT!! I'LL KILL YOU IN OUR NEXT FIGHT!! LET'S GO ZAFRADA!!」

「Okay, Daha-kun.」

More red mist sprouted from Zafrada's body, turning its color from bright red to blood red. And then the color became lighter and lighter till it completely vanished a few seconds later, leaving no one behind.

They had escaped.

「I think we're safe for now.」

Totona, who was riding on a chimera, descended beside me.

I couldn't detect the presence of our enemy. But, we shouldn't let our guard down.

Zafrada's presence had also vanished without trace.

In case the other party could hide their presence, there was a possibility of them hiding somewhere nearby, waiting for us to let our guard down.

「Fufufu, you came just in time, Totona-chan. I never expected the Serpent Prince Dahark and the Epidemic Goddess Zafrada to appear in person. Since there were Gigateses too, the situation would have become really dangerous were it not for your timely arrival.」

Someone came to Totona's side. It must be the person who traveled with Reiji and co.

I turned around to see the owner of this voice.

「―－－－－－－－－－!!!!」

I unintentionally let out a muffled scream.

EROTIC ONEE-SAN HAS APPEARED!!!!!!!

Her humongous pair of t*ts, which might be even bigger than Rena's, looked like they were about to spill from her already minimal attire. Her butt was literally protruding out of the skirt, which had a long slit that went up till her waist. Wait a minute, was it just my imagination that she was commando?

“THANK YOU FOR THE EYE CANDY!!!” were my thoughts as I mentally prostrated to her figure.

Who in the world was this woman?

「Please stop lying like that, Ishtar-sama. You should be strong enough to defeat some measly Gigateses.」

Totona glared coldly at Ishtar.

The Goddess of Love and Beauty, Ishtar.

I had heard rumors about her, and it turns out, the rumors were true about her.

「Well, I might’ve been able to fend for myself. But I would have had my hands full and would’ve been unable to save Chiyuki and the attendants, that's why you have my gratitude Totona-chan.」

Ishtar looked at us, throwing a wink at Totona.

「By the way, Totona-chan. You brought something quite interesting this time as well. Can you tell me what is THAT? Is it another magical creature you created?」

Ishtar came to our side with an extremely curious look on her face.

I unintentionally stepped back. That erotic beam is poisonous. Yeah, extremely poisonous.

To be honest, I prefer Rena's kind of beauty more than this erotic, AV star-like onee-san. But, not even Rena could beat Ishtar in terms of sex appeal, the latter's sex appeal was simply through the roof.

To be honest, I was weak to this kind of excessive eroticism, for a reason. I mean, her eroticism was something that should be enjoyed from afar.

「Please get away from Medjed, Ishtar-sama.」

Totona came in between Ishtar and me.

That was a close call.

「Geez, you're such such a tease, Totona-chan. I’m just curious, that’s all.」

「Medjed is my escort. No more, no less. By the way, that's truly a risque attire. Who are you trying to seduce this time?」

Asked Totona to Ishtar, sounds like she was trying to change the subject.

Yup, it went beyond risque, it was too erotic to the point that it became poisonous.

「Fufufu, it's him of course.」

Ishtar sent a sidelong glance at Reiji.

Reiji was speaking to Chiyuki. It seems he was confirming if she was safe.

Nevertheless, Reiji had become the target of this beauty.

Same as ever eh.

「Good grief, he's Rena's lover, Ishtar-sama.」

Totona reminded Ishtar with a cold voice.

「Oh my, Totona-chan. How can you say that when you're not in a relationship yourself? I mean, all the good men already have a fine woman by their side. Or else, could it be that you're planning to choose someone from among the ugly Evil Gods? That'll be a no. If you find a good man, you should snatch him, even if the other party already has a lover.」

「!!!」

Totona staggered back when Ishtar told her so. It was as if she got zapped by lightning.

「Fufufu, till how long are you going to lock yourself inside your library, Totona-chan? While it may be true that you hate to be compared with Rena-chan, it still must be hot for you to wear that thick robe in this kind of climate. Are you going to live in Rena-chan's shadow forever? It's such a waste seeing that you inherited Faeria's beauty.」

「Aaah…」

Totona was trembling non-stop. She seemed to be in trouble.

After I came to that conclusion, I stepped out and stood in front of Totona. Even if the other party was a literal, walking AV model, I wouldn't forgive her for causing trouble to Totona.

Totona was such a good girl after all.

I glared at Ishtar.

「Oh my, I guess I went a little bit too far. My bad, Totona-chan. And please be at ease, escort-kun. I would never hurt Faeri's daughter.」

Ishtar leaned slightly forward as she apologized to me.

The usual me would have stared daggers at her pair of giga-sized t*ts. But, I was currently an escort, and I shouldn’t make Totona worry about me.

What's happened to her?

When I turned around to look at Totona, I saw her looking down while muttering something.

It was as if she had made up her mind.

「Goddess Totona.」

Suddenly, Reiji called from the side.

When I looked in his direction, I saw him coming towards us with Chiyuki. And, just like before, Chiyuki refused to look in our direction. She must be really scared of that huge snake, huh.

「Thank you for saving Chiyuki, Goddess Totona.」

Reiji bowed to Totona.

Naturally, he didn't forget his usual refreshing smile. And yet, Totona was completely immersed in her own thoughts. Reiji was completely out of her sight.

Totona sometimes acted like this when she was completely immersed in her book. Normally, I wouldn't disturb her when she was in this state. I mean, Totona looked like she was truly enjoying herself when she read books.

But, she wasn't reading a book right now. I came to her side to remind her.

I tapped her shoulder.

「Eh? Ku… I mean, Medjed? What's the matter?」

Totona almost called me by my real name. I guess she was completely immersed in her own world.

But, she snapped right away.

Totona then noticed Reiji.

「E-Eh… Thank you for saving Chiyuki, Goddess Totona.」

Even Reiji was shaken by Totona's attitude.

「Ah… Are you the Hero of Light, Reiji? The one who saved your comrade isn't me. It's him, Medjed.」

Hearing that, Reiji looked at me. He was clearly suspicious of me.

Act natural, don't let him realize your identity.

I prayed desperately inside.

「Ah, thanks for saving my comrade.」

That was short. Completely different compared to Totona’s thanks.

Well I didn't care, not that I wanted his gratitude in the first place.

And he didn't notice my identity on top of that.contemporary romance

That's a relief.

「T-THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE!」

Chiyuki, who stood behind Reiji, also gave me her gratitude.

And again, she didn't look at me.

But I felt relieved to see a beauty safe and sound.

「Shall we go now? We can continue our conversation after we reach Arnak.」

Ishtar concluded our pleasantries.

「Uhm… Ishtar-sama. Our ship broke due to the attack. We don’t have a choice but to walk to Arnak.」

The attendant girl spoke timidly to Ishtar.

She seemed to be Ishtar's attendant. She looked unwilling to see her master, a Goddess, walking in the desert.

「No, it's alright. It seems someone came to welcome us.」

Said Ishtar as she looked at the horizon.

I followed her line of sight, looking in the same direction and saw the figures of dogfolk riding on chariots.

There was also the figure of a birdman with a falcon head, armed to a T, flying above them.

They looked like the Gypseal God army.

With this, we would finally arrive at the golden capital, Arnak, the place where Gypseal Gods reside.

Was what I thought as I looked at the incoming dogfolk.
