Chapter 296 - 263: Quests and Gifts (Part 2)
"The key and passcode to the treasure vault, I’ll have my sister give them to you later. But remember, the Elf Kingdom isn’t particularly wealthy, so take it easy when you wake up..."
Xiya was still siding with her own sister after all, only asking Natasha to take a little less rather than saying that it was her queen sister’s property and not to touch it.
In the end, a sister married off becomes someone else’s elf. Now she and Natasha were truly a family.
After laughing and playing for a while, Xiya took the initiative to snuggle up to Lynn, and before it got dark, Natasha wasn’t shy with Xiya, decisively claiming the other half of Lynn.
It wasn’t until an elf came to invite them to the banquet outside that a human, a dragon, and an elf were still tangled together.
The banquet set up in the Elf Royal Palace was nothing out of the ordinary. Besides Lynn and Natasha, all attendees were important members of the Elf Race.
The defeated candidate Saintesses had dispersed by the afternoon, and it was heard that the fanatic girl from the Druid Clan, although not chosen by the Goddess of Nature and Life, received the Gift of Nature from the Elf Queen as the Nature’s Messenger due to her devout faith, allowing her to level up by 50 levels.
The other two elves who became candidate Saintesses with Xiya managed to secure natural blessings for their children, ensuring the children would grow up healthy and disease-free to adulthood.
As for the Human Race girl who sneaked into the candidate Saintess list, she didn’t demand any rewards or compensations and just lingered in the Elf Royal Palace, saying she wanted to bring children to the Life Divine Envoy...
All in all, the banquet seemed to just be a formality, a gesture of respect from the Elf Race towards Lynn. Throughout, a group of elves cozied up to Lynn, and if they knew how to flatter, it might have turned into a session of excessive praise.
Finally, when the banquet ended, Natasha skillfully obtained a ticket to the treasure vault from the Elf Queen and slipped away quietly with a dragon without even saying goodbye.
When Lynn returned with Xiya, who had sipped a few glasses of fruit wine, to her room, Natasha was nowhere to be found.
Thus, Lynn and Xiya, with her slightly flushed cheeks, naturally found themselves alone in a room together.
"Actually... I could have my way with you anytime. But considering you have a task, I suppose tonight is the night, right?"
Lynn, holding Xiya’s hand, led her to the bed and sat down slowly, and then he gently spoke to the elf beauty beside him, as radiant as blooming flowers.
"Although the task from Lady Goddess is indeed like that, before the Divine Oracle, our union was inevitable even without Lady Goddess’s instructions. Could you really let me slip away from your grasp?"
Xiya, sitting on the bed edge, gently leaned her head against Lynn’s shoulder, then turned and smiled softly, speaking tenderly to Lynn.
"You were the wife I took a fancy to at first sight. How could I bear to let you run away? Regardless of what role your Lady Goddess may have in mind for my life, you are already on my must-have list. Incidentally, we have a saying back home: ’Choose the day rather than collide with the day.’ Since it falls upon today, it just fits, nothing wrong with that."
Lynn said, bending his head lightly against Xiya’s fragrant hair, then reached out to embrace her and gently lay her down on the bed.
Xiya had been teased by Lynn before, but that was just flirting... Um, to be precise, it was more than flirting, just not deeply engaged, merely tasted.
But tonight was undoubtedly the real deal. To be honest, Xiya was a bit nervous. She wasn’t afraid, just a little worried that, being somewhat slender due to a long-time vegetarian diet, she wouldn’t satisfy Lynn’s tastes.
The fear wasn’t of him eating, but of him not being satisfied...
However, Lady Goddess’s task was urgent, and it was inconvenient for Natasha to wait for a relay, so she could only do her best.
"Lynn... I’m ready."
With her clothes scattered around, Xiya whispered softly as she clung to Lynn, then they both got their wish, or more like both human and elf got their wish...
...
...
The night grew darker, and after a busy half-night, Master Lin was off duty... or rather off the clock.
The courage Xiya had summoned up now seemed to have dissipated, although she had given her best, she still wasn’t a match for Lynn’s natural talent.
Now she was curled up into a small ball, weakly huddled in the blanket, her body and surroundings full of battle traces.
"Am I really useless? Far worse than Natasha, right?"
The weakened voice of Xiya suddenly echoed in the newly calmed room.
Lynn hesitated, sensing that saying the truth might be too hurtful to the elf, so he chose a different approach.
"But Xiya truly is delicious."
Lynn’s comfort sounded a bit different in Xiya’s ears.
Delicious, like the most exquisite dessert, indeed very delectable yet it posed one problem—
It wasn’t filling.
For the first time in her life, Xiya regretted being born into the Elf Race, blaming her delicate and fragile body, beautiful but impractical!
"Then should I... maybe rest a little longer, and I... could manage, perhaps... maybe..."
Xiya hesitated, her soft voice devoid of confidence. In a real combat scenario, she wasn’t even as capable as some unconventional player, Lynn used to say she’d have legs to play with for years; she could endure all night in theory, but he used more conventional approaches, and she couldn’t handle it.
"That’s really not necessary, what do you take me for? I think of you as my dear wife, not some tool for pleasure. What reasoning is there to eat forcefully, regardless of how you feel?"
As Lynn spoke, he gazed seriously at Xiya, smoothing out her tangled hair beside her pointed ears with an earnest expression, then leaning down to plant a kiss beside her ear, causing Xiya to tremble and surrender immediately, feeling truly
incapable...
"How about..."
Xiya slowly extended her slender, delicate, and beautiful legs from the blanket, about to continue speaking when Lynn, who had been watching her closely, suddenly turned his gaze towards the door.
"Creak~~"
The tightly shut door was pushed open from the outside. Although they were inside the Elf Royal Palace, without fear of enemy attacks and such, Lynn wasn’t completely careless; at the very least, he had set up warning devices, and the door was locked.
Now the warning devices showed no reaction, and the locked door was pushed open. The only ones capable of this in the whole Elf Royal Palace would be...
Step~
Under Lynn’s watchful eyes, a slender leg in red high heels stepped in first from outside the door.
With Lynn’s excellent eyesight, he could see that the leg was astonishingly white. Upon closer inspection, he noticed a pair of pure white stockings, apparently with a pantyhose design, initially giving off a blurred look.
The owner of these lovely white-silk legs seemed hesitant, halting with one leg inside as if doubting whether to enter.
But this hesitation lasted only a few seconds; before Lynn could speak, a stunningly beautiful Elf Queen barged into the room.
Lynn wanted to ask, "Your Majesty, what brings you here at this late hour?", but felt that pretending to be ignorant was a bit sly, so he spoke forthrightly—
"Is this also a task from Lady Goddess?"
However, after Lynn spoke, the Elf Queen who seemed to have dressed up specially shook her head.
"No, it’s a gift from Lady Goddess."
Task, gift—the terms may differ, but the intent remains largely the same.
"I refused His gift earlier today..."
"Well, what about tonight’s ’gift?’ Do you want it?"
Saying this, the Elf Queen lifted her head and chest, posing regally as a queen.\
