Chapter 265 17: Demons In The Forest [1]
Zell landed in the centre of his village; the moment he stepped forward, two women lunged towards him, wrapping their bodies around him, sniffing and licking him relentlessly.
"Ah... Yinfra, I've missed you so much... Forgive me for making you work so hard with no repayment."
"Yanfra too, although it's an avatar, please enjoy the rest of the day by my side."
Zell felt their hands rubbing over him.
"Oh, this is wonderful!"
The women started to caress his back and chest, kissing him, licking his neck and face, and even nibbling on his ear, causing him to shudder as if electrified.
It was so good being home again!
"Were you both lonely?"
"Mmm.. always... even a second without you makes me want to cry!" Yinfra pretended to be one of those tragic heroines with a bitter smirk as she kissed him gently.
"Why are you acting like that?"
"Hmph, bastard! I can be a gentle wife at times...!" Yinfra complained while Yanfra snuck behind him, massaging his shoulders and back and kissing his neck with her soft pink lips and cute, narrowed eyes.
"But we can't allow that now..." She then winked at Yanfra, who giggled before taking hold of Zell's arms and dragging him towards a small gathering of many women.
'These two, always thinking about other women first...' Zell thought.
Inside the large hut was a group of women; they all looked a little tired, with slight wounds on their skin with some bruises, while Evelyn and Elisé sat on two soft chairs eating some berries.
"Oh~ you're back, bastard!" Evenlyn chirped, throwing some fruit at him with enough force to kill most people in this village.
Pah!
His hand easily caught the apple, using his skill to avoid it exploding on impact, before taking a large bite from it with a smile, "Mmmm, really nice. Thanks, little fairy!"
"You little shit!" She grumbled, but he turned away and ignored her.
He walked past them before sitting beside Anya, Tessa and Cryska, who were beaten up quite badly, Cryska was the least injured, but her hair was messy and her clothes torn, almost letting her massive tits hang out.
'Let's give them some new clothes more suited to this world.'
Zell secretly prepared basic clothes just before he learned the metalmancy skill, which he was constantly practising these days, trying to form basic weapons that could injure demons and other monsters that would soon appear en masse which normal weapons would only deal flinching blows at best with the girl's current power.
He currently had a few words, a large spiked hammer and a bladed whip made; they were not perfect and might be useless; his skill with metalmancy could no longer be seen via the game system. Thus he needed to focus, calculate and create with his mind and feeling.
'Thankfully, Baal imprinted all the knowledge on the subject into my mind... So it's not as hard.'
"Hello, girls, why are my cute women all beat up? Who did this?" Zell spoke with a bright voice, the three women showing a look of regret, then acceptance.
Tessa was the first to move and speak, her body sitting on his right thigh, leaning against his body with a vulnerable look.
"Darling~ there were demons, and they tried to kill us, but we fought hard and managed to get enough fruits and vegetables for the villages for a few weeks."
"Mmm~ honey, my ass and boobs her so much, look there's, are marks on your cute dwarf tits, why not go massacre them all for me? Hehe~!"
Anya leaned against him, her chest did have a mark, but it was more like dirt from falling than a weapon or what she said, so Zell just slapped her plump ass, pulling her onto his other thigh, letting her lean against his chest.
'I neglected these three as much as Rika and the girls... A long road, but I must find a path where all of them are loved and don't feel lonely. Be it giving them something that will help pass the time when we cannot meet... or a mission that stops them from thinking of anything but survival.'
A thought came to mind; he pulled his hand away from Anya, reached for the wooden box on his belt, and grabbed the three silver rings with different gemstones.
'These are item rings; now the inventory will slowly stop working... It's a cheap gimmick, but I cannot use all my time just soothing the women around me; the demons are already here.'
'I have to thin their numbers.'
Zell put the weapons made for each girl into the rings, using his black streamer, something even Baal didn't have, to engrave a message and their names onto the rings; in all honesty, he made other items for the women around him and would soon give them as gifts, but now these rings held a dual meaning.
One for survival.
Another is his promise and oath to both the girls and himself.
He would marry every one of the women that supported him or shall support him from this moment.
"Oh... cute ring..." Anya whispered before Zell grasped her left hand gently, stroking her smooth fingers and red nails with a faint smile.
'They'll be mine forever until death does us part.'
The moment he slid the ring onto her finger, she knew what it meant, soft teardrops oozing from her little golden eyes, Anya's arms quickly wrapping around his neck, always feeling insecure that after sex, he forgot her or didn't care anymore.
She began to have nightmares about her past life, never meeting up with him again, causing her chest to feel hurt, but she could not gather the courage to call him or find him to soothe her worry.
However, the moment the ring touched her flesh, she felt a strong connection to him, his love, affection and worry for her.... then inside the ring, she found countless first aid items, emergency food, potions and several hammers that all were signed and engraved with his name.
This alone couldn't erase her loneliness; Anya looked into his eyes and saw his sincere and apologetic look.
"Sorry, Anya, as a boyfriend, I was trash... After sleeping with you, I didn't support you. It's a miracle you stay beside me; please allow me from now on to make up for the time I was such an immature and horrible lover."
Honestly, none of the women truly blamed him, even now. They knew the weight on his shoulders and how hard he fought to save them; since all the women around him knew of his past and the other lives and timelines, Yanfra never wished for him to be misunderstood.
Thus none of them complained.
The moment he admitted his faults, the three felt a sense of happiness: instead of Yanfra's words... it was his own.
"We forgive you, darling," Tessa whispered, reaching out and touching his cheek. "Please let us help you and do everything together. We must fight harder to survive the coming war and protect our children and families, yes?"
"Master... your life is mine... Why would I blame you?" Cryksa added before she saw the two rings and saw the name engraved on one was hers... Feeling her heart race, she was moved to tears; even she was counted.
Cryska never considered herself his woman but as his servant or retainer.
The moment she saw the ring, the sealed feeling and desires towards her master smashed, and her body moved forward with instinct alone and jumped into his arms, wrapping hers around his neck and kissing him.
Her tongue entered his mouth and danced with his, their bodies pressing closer, their breasts crushing against each other.
As he took a deep breath, Zell realised the room had grown silent; everyone stared at the couple with shocked looks; he continued to kiss Cryska passionately; the sudden affection shocked him for a moment, but now he was gladly kissing her back.
His lips sucked on her tongue as they entwined, moving like a dance between them.
With a growl, Zell broke off the kiss, breathing heavily.
"Everyone, I am sorry..."
"Finally!" Alizée shouted, followed by many women agreeing upon seeing the delighted Cryska in his arms, while Anya and Tessa hugged him and Cryksa together.
Zell didn't realise that most of the older women expected this from the start, only worrying that the ones who were originally normal humans might struggle with this harem.
They always wanted to advise him when watching Cryska work so hard, training wolf riders and fighting harder than any younger woman.
"Mmmnph~ such a wonderful kiss, Zell. It reminds me of sucking your cock on the sofa that time, fufu~!"
Suddenly, after the kiss and with the ring on her finger, Cryska changed, or rather would it be more apt to say.
She returned to the woman that charmed his pants off.
Cryska's hands slipped down his body, caressing his chest and abs, before sliding into his underwear and teasing his stiff member, pressing her purple lips to his ear.
"I've always wanted to taste that delicious sperm inside me. Now that I'm a succubus, I can taste semen even in my ass or womb~ we should make some time to try it out and see if the flavour changes."
"Fufu~!"
Seeing Cryska like this caused Tessa and Anya to feel alarm bells, clinging to his arms, kissing his cheeks and pressing their bodies against his arms.
They didn't know how to drive him wild like Cryska, but that was alright.
Because she was their ally, not the enemy, leaning into his ear again.
"I think you should sleep with these two cuties first; my little Anya wants cock so bad... oh my~ who did she take after?"
"I can wait and clean up your cock when they are satisfied, master~."
Zell looked at each of the women, realising once again that he started to care less about the end of the world.
His true goal was to make these women happy, protect them and their families and create a future for them all.
