Saying Goodbye to Silaro

In the morning, Damien woke, feeling like he was being watched. Opening his eyes and looking around, he remembered the previous night with Beatrice. He started blushing at the memory, before quickly noticing the door was ajar.

I thought she closed it!? Raising his head, he looked over and saw a blue eye peering through. Bluey! Shoot, I got so caught up I didn't think about how she might feel. I know she likes Be-...Betty, but still...

At this point, Betty woke up. “What is...oh...” she said, seeing herself and Damien naked in bed. She reached up and kissed him, “Good morning,” she said, a giddy smile on her face.

“Good morning,” Damien replied nervously. He looked back and Bluey's eye was gone.

Betty giggled, “I've always wanted to do that.” She hopped out of bed, still naked, “Now I'll make you breakfast.” She grabbed his shirt, putting it on. Due to their size difference, it went down past her waist and halfway down her thighs. “How do I look?”

Damien blushed, It's the girlfriend-morning-after experience. “Really sexy...”

Betty blushed back, apparently not expecting such a strong response. “I want to jump back in with you, but I'm kind of sore from last night,” she squirmed.

Damien shook his head, getting up and walking over to give her a kiss. “Whenever you're ready again.”

Betty blushed even deeper. “Alright, I'm gonna make the best breakfast you've ever had!” She enthusiastically opened the door, only to run headlong into Bluey. Looking up slightly, she said, “Um...Bluey...I...”

“Did you two mate last night?” Bluey asked.

Betty shivered a bit, before replying, “Um...I really like your Master, so-”

“Bluey, I still-” Damien started at the same time.

Bluey hugged Betty. “That's great! I kind of thought you wanted too. Well, Master too.”

“Wha-...what...” Betty replied.

Damien just sighed.

“Does that mean you're going to join us on requests?” Bluey asked, punching the air. “It'd be fun to have you along too.”

Betty seemed relieved. “So you're not upset?”

Bluey seemed confused. “Why would I be?”

Betty blushed and poked her fingers together. “Sometimes woman...human woman, will get jealous if you take another woman's man.”

Bluey seemed more confused, scrunching her face as if thinking hard. “But...aren't I, Master's...so I...”

Damien put his hand on Bluey's shoulder, shaking his head. “If you're happy with everything, don't worry about it too much.”

Bluey nodded, grabbing Damien's hand and putting it on her head. “I'm happy.”

Damien sighed, mussing up her hair.

“Besides, slimes normally just mate with whoever the closest slime is...”

Betty raised her eyebrows. “Really?”

Bluey nodded. “Yeah. But mating with Master is sooo much better. Being human is awesome!”

After Betty made them some breakfast of fried eggs, ham, and buttered bread, she started talking, “So, about joining...”

Damien was worried, “You're having second thoughts?”

Betty blushed, “No, I just need a couple days to get everything sorted out.”

Damien raised an eyebrow.

“Like leaving my jobs, collecting my things, cleaning out the apartment...”

Damien was taken aback. “Why do you need to clean out the apartment? I was hoping we might be able to move in, actually...”

Betty poked her fingers together again. “Errmmm...I was hoping, maybe, we could get a fresh start somewhere new. Like Ancona. No one will know us there, so we can join the the guild there without worrying, and...”

She probably wants to leave her memories behind here...well, I can understand that, too... He smiled. “That sounds good to me. Bluey?”

Bluey, mouth full of ham, gave a quick nod and thumbs up, then when back to eating.

Betty giggled at her. “Thanks.”

After finishing breakfast, they all got (properly) dressed, and prepared to go their separate ways. However, Bluey realized she'd forgotten something. “I wanted to show my affection for Betty.”

Damien was taken aback, “What do you mean?”

Bluey leaned over and kissed Betty on the lips.

Betty blushed and tried to respond by holding out her arms, but no words were coming out.

Damien facepalmed. “Bluey, that's only for lovers. I know I probably should have explained better, but if you want to show affection for someone else, you should just hug them. Or at most kiss their cheek.”

Bluey blushed, “Oh, sorry,” and gave Betty another kiss, this time on the cheek.

Betty still seemed despondent, so Damien leaned over and gave her a kiss on the lips himself.

This seemed to reset Betty, who jumped up and hung off of Damien, turning the kiss into a passionate makeout.

Bluey cheered them on, until Betty let go, smiling. “Okay, so let's take care of everything today and meet back up here this evening,” she said, blushing as if thinking of what she wanted to do once they were back together.

Damien blushed back, nodding.

“And then tomorrow we can grab any last minute things for the trip, and then we'll head for Ancona.”

Bluey was excited, “Alright, let's go!”

Damien and Bluey went down to the shops, picking up extra supplies they would need for the journey. Betty has extra utensils, but we'll need three bedrolls... he blushed at the idea of not needing three. No, we need three...at worst we can just slide them together.

After getting some supplies, Damien turned to Bluey. “Do you want some more clothes?”

Bluey seemed confused. “Is something wrong with my current clothes?”

Damien looked at them. While they were a bit revealing, they were probably also functional in a fight. Actually...how was Bluey going to fight now? “Nothing, just let me know if you want some. I was also thinking, how are you going to fight in that form now?”

Bluey thought for a moment. “Like this?” she replied, jabbing the air.

Maybe we should go practice? “Let's go catch a couple rabbits for lunch.”

Bluey seemed excited at the prospect, racing ahead of him.

Outside the city, Bluey quickly caught on to some rabbit.

Damien, realizing he could ask now, “Can you smell monsters? How do you track them?”

Bluey shook her head, “No. Well, I can smell them now, but I can sense their aura once I know what to look for.”

“Their...aura?”

Love this story? Find the genuine version on the author's preferred platform and support their work!

“Yeah! Like, I can feel it on my skin,” she said, pulling at the skin of her arm.

Damien nodded, despite not really getting it.

After a moment, Bluey ran off, with Damien quickly following behind. After a few moments, they ran into some rabbits. Bluey ran up and...awkwardly started punching at them.

“Huwah!” she yelled, bending over. She connected with the rabbit, smashing it into the ground.

I guess that works... “Why don't you try kicking shorter enemies that are lower to the ground?”

Bluey nodded, running over and punting one of the other rabbits. While it did the job, it also sent the rabbit flying into the distance. Bluey turned around and smiled, giving a thumbs up, “Good idea!”

Well, if we weren't trying to get them for food, that would be fine...actually... “Try out your Lightning Bolt too.”

Bluey focused for a moment, and suddenly her hair started billowing behind her, all turning the same yellow-gold as the streak in her hair. That looks like a power-up scene! She pointed a finger at a rabbit, and lightning streaked through the air, electrifying it.

After successfully getting a couple rabbits, they cooked and ate them, before sitting in the grass around the fire. Despite it being midday, there was cool breeze keeping them from getting too hot.

“Master,” Bluey said, crawling up next to him and laying on him.

Alarm bells were going off in his head.

“Can we...” she said, looking up at him with eager eyes.

Damien started thinking quickly. What am I supposed to do? I want to, but I don't want to make Beatrice feel bad. But...she already knows about me and Bluey, so she doesn't have a problem, right? Is it because Bluey is my summon? So maybe it's fine as long as it's not another regular girl? Ughh...

At this point, Bluey pushed him down and started kissing him. Any reservations he was having went out the window, and he wrapped his arms around Bluey, pulling her against him.

“Wait!” Bluey said.

Damien was caught off guard. “What's wrong!?”

“We have to get naked first, right?”

“Oh...er...yeah...” he replied as Bluey was stripping off all her clothing at light-speed. He also pulled his off, before Bluey grabbed his member.

“Why isn't it big yet?” she asked, looking down at it.

“We need to warm up more,” Damien replied, grabbing her breasts. He started licking them delicately as Bluey giggled. “That feels good, but it tickles!”

After some more kissing, Damien was at full mast, and Bluey slid herself onto him. She put her hands on his chest, pushing herself up and down. “This feels so good!”

“Me too,” Damien replied, grabbing her waist and struggling to hold himself back. After just a minute, he couldn't hold himself back anymore. Pulling her down, he released inside her, causing Bluey to let out a satisfied 'Huwaaaah...'

“You feel better now?” Damien asked, pulling her into his chest.

Bluey nodded, “Yes. Don't you?”

Damien chuckled, “Yeah, I do.”

After cuddling for a bit, Bluey wanted to go kill a few more rabbits, so she ran around while Damien cleaned up.

They then went back into town. While they were walking along, Bluey whispered, “Let's go to that store from yesterday again.”

Damien chuckled, “So you do want more clothes...”

Bluey shook her head, “No, I wanted to get something for Betty.”

“For Betty?”

Bluey nodded. “She seemed interested in my undergarments, so I thought she might like some.”

Damien blushed, “I think she'd like that, but I don't know what her size is.”

Bluey was confused, “But you m-...” she stopped herself.

Phew...

“You saw her naked yesterday...”

Damien facepalmed.

“...so shouldn't you know her sizes?”

“No! I can't just know sizes based on that!” Damien whispered back. “And don't talk about being naked with someone in public, either.”

Bluey nodded, seeming a bit sad.

Trying to raise her spirits, Damien added, “We could still go get her something, though.”

As predicted, Bluey's mood instantly swung back with a smile. “Okay, let's go!”

After the trip to the clothing store, they went back Beatrice's apartment. She was already there, cooking up some diced beef and vegetables.

“Oh, sorry, I should have brought something...” Damien said when seeing her.

Beatrice smiled and shook her head, “No, it's okay, I need to clean out anything we're not bringing.”

“Betty, Betty, come change with me!” Bluey said, holding up the bag containing their purchase.

Beatrice looked between her and Damien.

“Bluey wanted to get you a gift.”

Beatrice blushed, “We can try it later-”

“Let's go now,” Bluey interrupted, pushing Beatrice towards her room.

“I'll mind dinner,” Damien replied, grabbed the spatula and going towards the food.

After a couple minutes, where he heard some odd sounds coming from the bedroom, Beatrice and Bluey came out. They had on matching nightgowns (corresponding to their hair color).

“Yeah, yeah, doesn't she look great?” Bluey said, looking at Damien.

“You both look great,” he replied, petting Bluey's head.

Beatrice blushed but gave a small smile, “Thanks.”

Damien served dinner while the other two sat down. “Did you get everything taken care of?”

Beatrice nodded, “Yes. Auntie was a bit sad, but the guild seemed...very supportive of my decision to return to being an Adventurer,” she explained, frowning.

“I wouldn't worry about it,” Damien replied.

Beatrice smiled and nodded. “You're right, I won't. I also got our carriage rented for tomorrow. We're leaving at midday, so there isn't any rush.”

Bluey jumped in, explaining there day. “We bought a bunch of extra things, and then tried out my human form in combat, and then we mated a bit, and then we got your gift, before coming back here,” Bluey explained, using her fingers to make sure she didn't forget anything.

Beatrice blushed a bit, going silent and looking at her bowl.

Damien realized this was probably a good time to clarify things. “Um...are you...”

Beatrice shook her head. “If it's just your summons, and you give me lots of attention too, I won't be upset. I knew that already going into things last night.”

Damien blushed, and nodded.

“If it's another human, you have to talk to me first.”

Damien choked on a vegetable. “What!?”

Beatrice blushed, “Is that-”

Damien shook his hand to stop her. “No, no, I'm saying, you're actually okay with it if I talk to you? You're not going to get jealous?”

Beatrice blushed further, “I don't want to be greedy,” she murmured.

“I don't know if I'd call that greedy...” Damien shook his head.

Bluey stopped eating and looked between them. “Um...are you two mad at each other?”

Damien shook his head and sighed, “No, it's the opposite.”

They continued eating dinner in silence, an awkward air around them.

After they finished, Bluey pushed both of them into the bedroom. “Go in here and mate for a bit to make up.”

“Bluey, we don't need-” Damien started, but stopped as Beatrice blushed and looked down.

Bluey closed the door on them, and Beatrice looked up at him. “I don't mind if-”

Damien leaned over and kissed her. “I'm not going to betray you like that. It's weird your so accepting of me...'mating' with my summons anyway.”

Beatrice shook her head. “I told you, I knew that when I was getting involved with a summoner.”

Damien thought introspectively. I guess I won't worry about it right now, and just make sure Betty doesn't feel lonely. Looking at her, he grabbed her nightgown and started to slip it off.

Beatrice grabbed his hand. Blushing, she said, “Um...I'm still sore from last night, so...”

Now Damien blushed, “Sorry, I didn't mean to be so rough.”

Beatrice shook her head, “No, it's fine. I...really enjoyed it. Let's just wait another day or so...” she said with a smile.

Damien picked her up and laid her on the bed. Laying down next to her, he started kissing her gently.

She grabbed his shoulders, pulling him back in so she could stick her tongue in and grab his, passionately entwining them until they were both out of breath.

Once they finished, she wrapped her arms around him, smiling in satisfaction.

Damien ran his hand through her hair. “You know, this isn't how I expected this to go...”

Beatrice giggled. “What does that mean?”

Damien blushed, I don't think I should tell her 'when I came here from another world'. At least not yet. “When I met you at the guild that day.”

Beatrice nodded. “Me neither. I thought you would end up wanting transfe-”

The door opened slightly, cutting off their conversation. They looked over, seeing Bluey's blue eye looking through.

“Yes?” Damien asked.

“Um...did you two make up yet? I'm kind of lonely out here.”

Beatrice giggled, “Come over here.”

Bluey smiled, running over and vaulting over them onto the other side of the bed, holding onto Damien and smashing her breasts into him. “I wanna cuddle too.”

The three of them chatted for a bit, as Bluey was curious about Ancona, so Beatrice shared what she knew, while Damien listened. After a while, both of them fell asleep, hunkered up on either side of Damien.

Damien has an epiphany moment. This is pretty amazing. Not only am I not lonely anymore, but I have two beautiful companions I'm with. I should really thank the goddess the next time she checks in.

“Oh, you're welcome,” he heard the goddess say in his head.

Damien's eyes went wide. Goddess?

“Yes, it's me! I was planning on checking in soon, but since you thought of me, I figured now would do.”

Oh...well, thank you!

“Of course! But, you realize, you're not done right? You need to make sure those with you aren't lonely, either. You have more than just yourself to take care of.”

Of course, I ...I wouldn't dream of upsetting them.

“Good, good. Well, I need to get back to work. Tootaloo!”

Already! I- he thought, but he could sense the presence of the goddess was gone already. Well, I'll take what she said to heart.

In the morning, the three of them got ready and packed their belongings. “Don't you want to bring any of this?” Damien asked.

Beatrice shook her head, “I borrowed most of it from Auntie, she's going to come pick it up later.” She seemed a bit sad as they tidied up.

“Are you changing your mind on leaving?”

Beatrice shook her head, “No, not at all. I just...I have good memories in this apartment now,” she smiled, hugging him.

Bluey, not sure what was going on, hugged them as well.

Beatrice giggled. “Come on, let's go grab some food and then meet up with the carriage driver.”

They first stopped at Beatrice's favorite bakery, grabbing some bread for the trip. After purchasing a few days worth, Damien wanted to stop at the meat-man before they left.

“Haha, haven't seen you in a couple days sonny...” he trailed off as he saw Bluey and Beatrice. “Oho, is it because you picked up a couple beautiful girls!?”

Damien and Beatrice both blushed, while Bluey was distracted with the meat on display. “Ye-yeah, this is actually my summon, Bluey. This is Betty, my...” he paused. What is Betty? Saying a party-member seems too distant, but saying something like 'lover' is embarrassing. “She's my girlfriend.”

Beatrice blushed even heavier but smiled, looking down in embarrassment.

“Haha, wonderful!” the meat-man replied.

“We're actually leaving Silaro for a while, so I wanted to come grab some food from you for the journey.”

“Oho, let's see...” he said, turning around. He pulled out a big bag of dried meat. “Here you go, this'll keep for a while, so you can eat it as needed!”

Damien nodded and paid. “Thanks again!”

“Of course! Make sure you stop by again when you're back in town.”

They walked away, and Damien noticed Beatrice was still blushing.

“What's wrong? Do you not want me to tell people you're my 'girlfriend'?”

Beatrice smiled and shook her head. “No, it was just...unexpected. I didn't think you felt that way.”

Damien was taken aback, “What do you mean? We're already-”

Bluey jumped in. “Am I your girlfriend, too?”

Damien was confused. “I don't know, you're already my summon. Isn't that pretty close?”

“Oh yeah, I guess that's true...”

Beatrice giggled.

They then headed over to the meet the carriage driver. As they did, Damien thought he recognized him. Wait, it's the guy who wouldn't give me a lift!

The carriage driver seemed to recognize him right away. “I'm glad you have money this time.”

Beatrice looked between the two of them.

“Yeah. Well, she does.”

The carriage driver gave a 'hmpf' then pointed with his thumb to his carriage. “Let's get going.”
