20 An Adventurer’s Life For Me
I woke up and wasn't surprised to feel another source of warmth inside my blanket. I had suspected Hestia would become a cuddler after learning she had a falling out with her longtime friend. I knew it was Hephaestus from my previous knowledge, because she hadn't mentioned it.
Then again, I didn't really know a lot about the story, just the overall plot and a few of the events that happened. It wasn't something that had caught my attention before, which was why I chose it. It was almost all new territory for me, so I couldn't wreck everything by mistake like I had in the last world.
I folded the edge of the blanket back and revealed Hestia's sleeping face. She had snuggled right into my chest and looked really comfortable. When I checked the invisible clock in my head, I saw that it was barely past dawn and I wrapped my arms around the sleeping Goddess. I could easily waste an hour or two like this as I waited for the various shops to open.
Hestia murmured my name and how hot I was, then her lips kissed my pectoral right by the nipple. It hardened for her, as if she asked for it, then she moved slightly and clamped her lips right onto it and started to suckle.
I couldn't fight against how good that felt and my erection grew right up between her legs. She let out a soft moan at me pressing against her panties and she wiggled her hips a little, probably trying to either feel more or to stop feeling pressure down there. Either way, it felt great on my end.
Hestia was about the same height as Koneko and that made me feel even hornier. What were the odds that I would find another woman that was the same size as the last girl I was falling hard for?
As soon as I thought that, I had to smile. Blessing of Fortune was definitely at work again. I reached down and gripped Hestia's ass and she let out a fairly indecent moan and sucked even harder on my nipple. Her thighs pressed together and gave me a great spot to work with, so I did. I dry-humped her and made sure to rub over her, just like I had with Koneko, to give her a great orgasm.
“Ohhhh... ohhhhhhh... ohhhHHHH!” Hestia moaned and gasped. Her thighs squeezed me tightly and I blew my load all over the inside of the blanket and over her panty-covered ass.
We were both panting after the exertion and Hestia stopped suckling to give my chest several kisses and started to softly snore.
I didn't complain that she didn't thank me for getting her off, because the 600 Karma points certainly did. I wasn't going to question the value of a 'semi-conscious orgasm' when it involves a virgin goddess, especially because I knew she would be freaking out if she realized what had happened wasn't just a dream.
I cast a cleaning spell to clean myself of the mess, one for her because of her own mess, and one for the blanket for both of our messes. As far as she was concerned, it was just a pleasant dream. I wasn't going to ruin her powers by taking advantage of her, because she had been a virgin goddess for centuries for a very specific reason.
I closed my eyes and dozed away for the next couple of hours. I wasn't sure if Hestia had to work today, so I waited for her to wake up before I asked. She started to stir and made a few odd sounds, almost like disappointment, then she stopped breathing and completely stiffened because of the position she was in.
I thought about pretending to be asleep and chose to get the confrontation over with. “Good morning, Mother Goddess Hestia.” I said and kissed the top of her head, since that was the only spot I could reach with my lips.
Hestia didn't relax as she lifted her head from my chest. Her eyes almost bored into mine as she blushed from embarrassment. “G-g-good m-morning, B-Bell.”
I gave her a warm smile and provided her with a convenient excuse. “I need to thank you for looking after me so well, Hestia. It was my first time sleeping in a strange place and you took it upon yourself to make sure I was okay.”
Hestia's eyes almost lit up at my words. “Y-yes! Yes, that's exactly what I was doing! I was comforting you, my new child. It was my responsibility to take care of you like this. Yes, it was.” She said and nodded her head several times.
I barely held in my laugh at how much she was jumping on that excuse. “Now that you're awake, are you working today?”
“I have half a shift today.” Hestia said and looked over at the clock. “And I have to be there in fifteen minutes.”
“Not a problem! I'll help you.” I said and threw the blanket off and picked her up.
“EEP!” Hestia let out at me seeing her wearing only her panties and she cupped her hands over her breasts. It was funny, because by her doing that, it gave me an even better view than what I had.
“It's okay, Hestia. We live together now. I was going to see your big beautiful breasts bare at some point anyway.” I said and her eyes went impossibly wide.
“Hello! What can I do for... Bell!” Hestia gasped.
“I'm sorry for bothering you at work. You forgot your lunch at home and I brought it right over.” I said and unhooked the full thermos from my belt to hand it to her.
Hestia winced slightly at the double lie and I smiled at her. “Yes, thank you.” She said and accepted the thermos, then stared at it and wondered what it was.
“Like this.” I said and popped the top off to show her it was like a bowl and unscrewed the top to pour a small amount of still hot stew broth into it for her.
Hestia drank it immediately without prompting, so I screwed the top back on and she popped the top onto it, understanding its function, and grinned at me. “Thank you, Bell.”
I bowed to her and left before anyone could complain that I wasn't a paying customer. I would be eventually because the food smelled good. Buying it fresh was much better than buying it at the end of the day after it had been picked over. However, food was food, and I wasn't going to turn anything down.
I made my way across the city to the large Guild Hall and went inside. I spent a few minutes looking around and wondered how they could have the main adventurer hall be so... plain. Wood was everywhere and nothing really stood out to show that it was the most important and most used building in the whole city.
I walked over to the main counter and a woman with a moderately large chest was there doing paperwork. I say woman, except I meant she was a quite pretty half-elf with a slim body, shoulder-length brown hair, pointy ears, and emerald colored eyes behind very thin glasses. She wore a uniform of white shirt, black vest, and black pants.
“Good morning, ma'am.” I said softly, trying to not startle her.
The woman lifted her gaze from the papers she was working on and her eyes widened when she looked at my face. Her eyes darted down to my chest and back up, then down to my waist and back to my face, this time with an added blush.
I smiled to stop my chuckle at her actively checking me out. “Could you advise me about how to join up as an adventurer? I'm a complete novice about such important things and need to rely on an expert like you to handle me properly.”
Her face flushed to a deeper red at my innuendo. “I... I would be happy to help you, mister...”
“Bell Cranel, Prospective Adventurer.” I said and held a hand out for her to shake.
“Eina Tulle, Advisor.” She said with a smile as her blush faded and took the offered hand.
I didn't shake it and bent over it to kiss it instead. “It's very nice to meet you, Miss Tulle.”
Her blush rushed back and she looked a little faint.
“Do you have an office or something where we can talk things over? I have some concerns about money and earnings...” I started to say.
“Y-yes, I... if I can have my hand back, I can lead you to a meeting room.” Eina said.
I chuckled and let her hand go, then motioned for her to lead the way.
Eina smiled at me and called for another cute woman to take her place as she picked up a pile of different papers than what she had been working on. She walked around the counter to join me in front of it and led me to a small side room.
I couldn't help but admire her nice ass in tight dress pants as she walked. I just hoped that my peace offering would be accepted as it was intended, a blatant bribe to not be so harsh with me at the negotiation table.
