Chapter 34 34: Half-Orc And Feelings!

Once Zestria left, it was a rather uneventful evening.

The dungeon was finished quite quickly, with the succubi crushing the monsters as Raven and Emily left together, her roots almost wrapped around his arm like a tree, her pink lips humming a soothing tune.

"Emily, are you going to get down soon? You've already finished, right?" Raven wasn't that phased by her actions; he tried an elven female dog; this dryad wasn't much worse, only he hoped she would do these things in private in future.

"Eh, how did you know!?" Emily gasped, then leaned against his shoulder, her soft green hair brushing against his neck, as her large eyes peered into his.

Raven stayed quiet, his right hand leaning over, reaching between her exposed thigh, the orc's large palm sliding over her warm and sticky pistil, causing Emily's lips to open and gasp with a loud and shocked noise.

"Ahhh!?" Her shock was painted on her face as his fingers teased and played with the silky petals that oozed with the thick sap before his finger entered a hot, sticky pollen tube. Her body convulsed from the thick fingers stretching the wet tunnel to his size.

"No... it's outside... Mmmm!"

The moment she said those words, a smirk came to Raven's face as he slipped out his fingers before loudly sucking the tasty sap from them, a delightful honey taste filling his mouth as Emily's mouth opened wide, her sap now licking by Raven's tongue causing her mind to explode.

"You are finally speaking sense. Emily, you are a wonderful woman from what I have seen, but please have some self-respect. We haven't even had our date yet, and you've already used my arm to orgasm. Get down."

His words caused Emily's roots and vines to release him instantly, her body slipping from his now sticky arm, her face blushing red as she realised her actions were too obscene and forward.

Raven saw her dejected look; giving a slight sigh, he wrapped his arms around her tiny shoulders, gently kissing the top of her green hair, the scent of melon filling his nose as his fingers stroked along her sad cheeks.

"Don't look so sad; you know about me from the database, right?"

"Mmm..."

"I still have her in my heart, and my feelings towards you are still growing, but how can I say I truly treasure you if I carry her deep in my chest when we still haven't started to build our tale together?"

"I... I was..."

Her eyes were slightly wet, and before they could even form tears, his enormous almond thumbs brushed across the base of her eyes.

"Emily, don't worry; there is no need to rush. You are my type, a wonderful woman that has almost swept me off my feet. Otherwise, I would never let you latch onto me; your race and age are irrelevant; there is no rush, and you can be at ease. I want to get to know you, fall in love with you, not fall into lust with you."

"Mmmm!?"

Emily's eyes shone brightly, his words causing her chest to beat rapidly as he felt it was thumping as they embraced each other, standing under a quiet bus stop as the pitter-patter of rain and cars passing them sounded as their ambience and background music.

"I have many secrets, but my feelings and Philis. It will never be something I hide from you; the information states we met 8 years ago, and for 8 years, I loved her. Even now, she is important to me, but that chapter of my life is over..."

"But I cannot rush... I won't ask you to wait forever because I am not some special man, a mere orc with my vices and weaknesses."

Her hands wrapped around his back, a black car almost splashing her green body with dirty water, filled with filth and muck from the factories to the north. Raven's huge body covered and turned her away as his back was filled with sludgy and disgusting dampness.

"It's fine... everything... No matter what happened in the past, what might happen in the future, even if you have other women... Visit that cow woman... I want to know..."

Emily's eyes were hopeful, the emerald orbs peering into his eyes with a penetrating gaze.

"What?" Raven asked with a soft smile, his arms feeling her shy vines stroking his fingers and wrists gently, rubbing against him like a shy girl.

"Do I have a chance.... can I enter that big heart of yours!? I am a dryad.... I'll suck your vitality all the time... I love being perverted... you know?" Emily began to speak with a rapid-fire voice, her breathing almost hyperventilating as his hands grasped her back tightly.

He pressed his forehead against hers, the tiny dryad only up to his chest as he leaned down, a massive smile from ear to ear on his face as he found her too adorable that he couldn't resist it.

"We are having this conversation because you have already entered my heart. A small green seed, right in the depths, her little roots slowly forming as she germinates, helping the dark and bitter feelings slowly purify with her smile and presence."

"Ah? Ahh... Is that so... I see... I see...."

Raven gave an amused smile; although his romantic tethers in this world were becoming more difficult and hectic, his mind and body changes after becoming a manticore were simple.

Be honest to yourself, be honest with his women and accept everything if they can't.

In this world, polygamy was widespread. Usually, female orcs or male orcs would have up to 6 partners, but his mother was happy with his father and became an odd one among her siblings, the same for the monsters that drained vitality; they would have a reverse harem just so their lovers could alternate and avoid their death.

That's why he knew it wasn't a big problem for Emily, but he didn't want to start any serious relationships until he could speak to Philis without feeling regret and wanting to rush to her side again.

Originally, Raven was a monogamous person; his love for Philis even now was a large part of who he was, but the changes to his body, the gates of bliss alone, would require him to have passionate and loving sex with 12 women at the very minimum.

Not lustful and emotionless sex.

He needed to connect to their hearts, and they to his. Thus Miriam couldn't clear the first gate alone, he needed a woman like Emily or his passion towards Lilith to break the first gate, but with time he felt that Miriam would become more than just a weekend's moment of passion and pleasure.

Everything needed time!

While he was thinking, Emily seemed lost in her thoughts, her flowers blooming randomly, at times happy flowers, sometimes sad, lustful or bright pink ones.

Raven watched her in silence as she looked up at him with the weirdest smile; it was so bright and seemed like she had won the lottery or something, her soft hands tapping his chest as she began to cry, her tears pouring from her eyes.

Tears of happiness as she rubbed her slightly wet nose on his chest, luckily the dryads fluids were all sweet and like honey; otherwise, he might flick her forehead away from him and the nasty goo from her nose.

"Stupid orc... why are you saying these words and using plant analogies... are you trying to charm me more!? Stupid.... huge cock.... idiot! Haha....Am I here? inside your heart... my vines, branches and flowers don't disgust you?" Emily's voice was filled with countless emotions as she lifted her hand close to his face, a small blue flower blooming from her green hand.

He looked at the flower for a moment before gently kissing the soft blue flower, its pink bud fluttering as the flower turned a bright red, countless petals blooming from the flower as Emily turned red; even her green body was a bright red.

"You dumb dryad! Why would I dislike these cute flowers? Each one is a part of you, your feelings, and show are how honest and lovely you are! What a huge cock, look at your massive ass, shaking it in front of me and making me like this!" Raven argued with her feeling a little rebellious.

He placed her red hand on his crotch, causing Emily to gasp as the thick purple aura flooded her body while her gentle pink mist filled Raven.

The light rain slowly faded as the pair stood in a strange embrace.

"It's huge... and so thick..." She muttered as he felt a strange feeling flowing through his body.

Crack!

The second Seal was broken.

He entered the 3rd Stage of Gate 1!

Filled with a slight sense of power, his body and muscles shuddered, tightening while endorphins rushed around his mind, causing him to feel great. He ignored Emily, who was now rubbing along his crotch with a more perverted smile than earlier.

Instead, he placed his finger under her chin and softly lifted her face, which was fixated on his lower body. Her eyes widened as she took her hand away, worried he was mad.

She was filled with a sense of regret, and fear after finally reaching this stage, worried her caressing of his crotch might have affected his mood; ready to apologise, his magnetic and sultry voice sounded, causing her mind to turn blank like a sheet of paper instantly.

"If you are not working tomorrow, would you like to have our date early, my cute dryad Emily?"

Her mind didn't care if she was working; she nodded profusely as he suddenly lifted her off the ground, giving her a tight hug, before clasping her hand gently, walking towards the evening district, although known for its adult entertainment, it was also home to the cities best restaurants and bars.

The time was 8:03 pm as Raven's spare hand deftly manoeuvred around his cell, booking meat at a reputable steak restaurant he had always wanted to try but never visited.

Emily leaned against his arm, her branches and vines wrapped around his arm as she felt this was like some mystical dream. She believed if she spoke, it might end, as her green eyes fluttered and enjoyed the night air, guided slowly by Raven, who shortened his steps for her benefit as they walked together like lovers.

It was a place he never visited with Philis and would remain a place he only went with Emily, no matter who else he might end up with.

Le Relais de Arcadia - This would be their signature date spot.
