Chapter 81: A Menace In The Forest [1]

Then there was Sable, the dark elf.

Kaisen couldn't shake the feeling that she was acting a bit off, especially when the topic of the forest came up.

It was like she had some secret tucked away, but she kept her lips sealed tight.

Kaisen shrugged it off, chalking it up to her still being peeved at Maximus, who wouldn't shut up about going back to the palace.

But deep down, a nagging suspicion lingered.

The tension between Maximus and Sable reached a boiling point, while the animosity between Maximus and Alwyn escalated to epic proportions.

And who was the mastermind behind it all?

None other than Kaisen himself.

He wasted no time, diving headfirst into the fray, launching his attacks with ruthless precision.

It was like watching a master chess player in action, each move calculated to sow chaos and discord among them all.

"Sable-san, those berries over there look promising. Could you gather them? Your keen eyes can distinguish between what's safe to eat and what's not."

"Why not, Kaisen-kun. You've done well finding this berry patch. Although you might not be able to tell the difference between poisonous and edible, your effort in finding them is commendable."

Kaisen smiled sheepishly, scratching the back of his head.

"Of course, Sable-san. We can't rely solely on meat if we're going to be here for a while. And besides..."

He leaned in, a mischievous glint in his eye.

"...I could always offer you a massage if you're feeling tired."

Sable giggled and playfully slapped Kaisen's shoulder.

"Ara ara, Kaisen-kun. Aren't you getting a little naughty?"

Kaisen chuckled, shaking his head.

"Not at all. I'm just here to lend a helping hand, Sable-san. Anything you need, I've got your back. Keeping you in top shape is my number one priority, after all."

Sable giggled again before strolling over to the berry patch Kaisen had mentioned.

Her simple tunic hugged her curves, emphasizing the sway of her ass cheeks as she walked.

Without a bra or panties, her breasts bounced subtly with each step, catching Kaisen's attention.

He couldn't help but admire the way she moved, the natural jiggling drawing his gaze, a primal desire stirring within him as he watched her go.

Maximus was teaching Alice how to handle her magic staff.

Being a high-ranking knight, he naturally knew his way around all sorts of weapons, including knowing a bit about magic staffs.

Though he couldn't wield one properly himself, he could still offer her some useful pointers.

"Kaisen-kun..."

Alice beamed upon seeing her lover approach.

He came over to them and lovingly patted her head, causing her cheeks to flush as she leaned into his body, craving more of his affection.

"Look at you, sneaking lessons from a knight."

Alice pouted.

"It's not sneaky, silly. Maximus-san was kind enough to give me some pointers on using the magic staff. I'm grateful for the help. It's tougher than it looks."

Kaisen ruffled her hair affectionately, eliciting a contented sigh from Alice as she closed her eyes in bliss.

"Be-besides, if you get injured, I have to properly heal you, r-right?"

Alice stammered, her cheeks flushing pink.

Kaisen couldn't help but chuckle at her adorable flustered state.

He leaned in and planted a gentle kiss on her cheek.

"That you do, love. That you do."

Maximus observed them from the corner of his eye, waiting for their public display of affection to come to an end.

Though he pretended to look away, Kaisen was certain that Maximus was keeping an eye on them.

And truth be told, Kaisen didn't mind at all.

In fact, it was one of the reasons he was being so overly caring towards Alice—besides wanting her to love him more, of course.

"Maximus-san..."

Kaisen finally addressed the knight, slinging an arm over Alice's waist and drawing her closer.

His hand wandered down until it rested on top of Alice's ass.

She looked down, her cheeks flushing crimson with embarrassment.

'Sooo cute...'
