Book 2: Chapter 4-3: Things Bequeathed by the Father
We had fulfilled our reconnaissance objectives.
The Fire Fox Village as well as most of the soldiers who invaded it had been wiped out. What was important was that the village itself could not be used as a base of operations.
Itd be practically impossible for them to invade Erucy like this, and even if they forcefully tried then we could easily deal with such a small number of soldiers.
Kuu, what do you think we should do with the soldiers here? I could easily deal with this amount by myself.
I said and Kuu started thinking desperately.
She bit her lips and then slowly opened her mouth.
You should leave them be.they have to be alive to convey how dangerous the Fire Foxes are to the Empire.
Im sure she wanted to take her vengeance, but Kuu said to let them go.
It was a decision she based on the future of the Fire Foxes instead of her own emotions.
Im of the same opinion. Youve worked hard Kuu.
I patted Kuus head softly and enjoyed the feeling of her soft Fox ears.
I am the Chief after all.
Kuu said with a sorrowful smile.
**********************************
After that we went around to the salt areas and gathered as much rock salt as I could fit in my backpack.
Using my large capacity bag we were able to gather enough salt for the village to use for a few months if we were a bit stingy.
Now that I knew the location I could travel here within 2 hours and periodically collect more.
Then I picked up Kuu in a princess carry once more.
The weight of Kuu and the bag now exceeded 100Kg so even with my body reinforcement magic it was a bit painful.
However, I refused to show it in face or actions. That was the pride of a man.
KuuIm sorry about hitting you before. I just couldnt allow you to keep badmouthing those who died. If you want to hit me back later I wont mind.
The thought of them giving their lives to fight for someone overlapped with things in my past lives and my emotions went out of control.
Even if I got angry I didnt have the right to raise a hand to her. This was my mistake.
If it was Roleau I wouldnt even mind if I ended up using a Pharaoh Special on him, but Kuu was a young woman.
Its alright. If Cyril-kun hadnt gotten angry then I might not have acknowledged how hard my Father and the rest tried to help us. That scares me more. When we get back to Erucy I can convey to the others how courageous they were and how much they loved us.
Kuu was talking to me in friend mode.
This allowed us to speak much more casually.
You think thatll help keep them from being depressed?
I think theyll be depressed anyways. But, I want to convey their feelings properly.
Kuus voice didnt express any hesitation.
Im sure they will mourn. However, as they understood the love that was behind their loved ones actions they would be able to stand up once more.
No, Kuu will have them stand again.
..do your best.
Yes, Im still immature but someday Ill be a great Chief like Father and Cyril-kun.
Kuus eyes looked to the distance.
Im sure those words were aimed at her late Father.
Well, for now you can just aim to be like your Father. I cant be arrogant and say I should be your goal.
ButI really think that a Chief like my father or you is my goal.
Kuus arms tightened their hold around the back of my neck.
Even when we were coming here I felt like Kuu was being strangely affectionate.
Also Cyril-kunearlier you said something about a Brothel? And that youd patronize me there?
Did I say something like that? I dont remember.
In truth I remembered perfectly. However, after my emotions calmed down I was embarrassed by my outburst.
You did say it. Could it be that.youre backed up Cyril-kun?
Hey! Kuu!
Her completely blatant words surprised me and I almost dropped her.
We were moving more slowly than when we arrived, but I was moving at around 60km/h so it was extremely dangerous.
So? Did I get it right? Are you backed up? Could it be that Lucy-chan doesnt let you do it? A so-called sexless marriage?
Ihavent married Lucy yet.
After getting poked where it hurts I couldnt help but stutter.
How unexpectedyou got along so well since long before I thought youd long been married. If I remember correctly Elves dont engage in any premarital relations right?
Thats only old-fashioned elves. There are plenty who dont care. However, Lucys family lineage is made up of Shrine Maidens and her Grandma was very strict so those kind of things are no good.
Looking at it from another perspective Lucy had strong sexual desire. That was shown by what she did next to me while I sleptbut with her Grandmas lessons firmly in mind she wouldnt cross that line.
If we were married she wouldnt have any issues with it, but I had decided not to get married until things had stabilized.
If I went around merry-making and celebrating while things were still bad it would set a poor example.
So we mutually refused to lay a hand on each other.
Is that so? Then would you like to make children with me? Im okay with you Cyril-kun.
K-Kuu calm yourself.Im sure the situation in the village mustve been hard to bear but dont fall into desperation. Treasure yourself more.
Im completely calm. Ive had good feelings for Cryil-kun since long ago and ever since we reunited youve been very reliable and kind.
I started to blush.
Kuu was an absolutely beautiful girl.
I personally thought Lucy was a little better, but that was simply a matter of personal preference. Im sure there are plenty of people who would say that Kuu was prettier.
I hadnt seen a girl whose beauty matched that of Lucys until I saw Kuu.
If I would eventually have to do such a thing with an elf then I was thinking that I would prefer it to be you Cyril-kun. I also think that I would be good for the future cooperation between our people if we as Chiefs had a child together.
I dont like taking such calculating things into consideration.
You said it yourself Cyril-kun. If your emotions and logic are pointed in the same direction then go for it. My personal emotions and my rational thoughts are both giving me the go sign.
Listening more carefully I could hear a bit of shyness in her voice.
It looks like she wasnt as stoic as she wanted to sound. After realizing it I regained some composure.
No. I wont do that to you Kuu.
Are you worried about sexual disease? I dont have any experience so you dont have to worry about something like that.
Thats not what Im saying!
Even though I said that I was a bit surprised at the relief I felt when I heard she didnt have any experience.
Do I not have any charm for you? Even though Im like this I was the most popular girl in the Fire Fox Village.
Kuu is certainly charming.
She was soft, cute, smelled good, and had a large breasts. I even thought she had the ideal body type.
Kuus chest was practically perfect while Lucys was a bit lacking.
As I thought. My Brother especially said that my tail was erotic. Even my father said that my tail was a once in a hundred years beauty.
I wouldnt understand that and Im scared of how your brother saw you!
I couldnt help but rebut.
Im sure that our species differed on how we rated beauty, but Im sure the tail was not a common one.
I certainly thought that her golden fluffy tail with a white tip on it was cute, but I couldnt muster up any sexual desire for it.
Is that so..Im confident in my tail thoughwant to try touching it?
If youre going that far then I wont hold back.
I said and placed my hand on Kuus tail.
I moved her body a bit so I could carry her while touching her tail and ran it through my hand.
My hand sunk into a soft fluffy feeling. This was certainly really nice.
The way it ran through my hands felt like itd turn into a habit.
Nnnn.it feels good Cryil-kunbut dont do it so hard.
As I was playing with her tail, Kuu let out a romantic voice. It made me feel weird.
Sorry. Fire Fox tails are pretty great.
It is great. Ah, but dont touch other girls tails. A girls tail should only be touched by her parents or he husband. If you do it forcefully its practically rape.
Wait a secondthen why did you tell me to
Cause its you Cyril-kun. Plus I was serious when I said I didnt mind if it was you Cryil-kunso just tell me whenever you change your mind.
Kuu said as I let the last of her tail slip out of my hand.
I felt great regret as my hand parted from it.
My male instincts wanted to accept herI wanted to play with her tail some more.
However, Lucys smile floated through my mind.
I made a promise with Lucyand I dont want to betray her.
That was my answer.
Itd be way too uncool if I ran away to another girl just because I couldnt do it with her right now.
You act like a gentleman. I like that part of you too Cyril-kun. Ill keep it a secret that you touched my tail so dont worry about it.
Wellthats not really what I was talking about.
And so Kuu and I talked as we returned back to the Village.
