Slowly getting back into the flow...
===========================================
Consoling everyone took a bit more time then expected,but after hugging and making up with everyone,we finally decided to start moving on again.
Of course there were a lot of things everyone wanted to say,but because I was a bit worried about blondie's concussion and the beastmen that were now in the tow,we couldn't afford to have any more idle time with each other.
There was also the problem with rimulu and the medicine we still needed to acquire for her mother and looking at our current state with myself and wylniva already tired without even getting close to the dungeon...it didn't look very good after all...
We may need to delay this task some more.
I thought for a second,raising my eyes towards rimulu who was still sitting on top of one of the beasts,the
I could only smile wryly seeing her act like that,it wasn't as if I couldn't understand her,she probably also understood that we may delay this for another few hours or even a day if we don't recover fast enough from this incident.
Her frustration was also fairly justified because this wasn't a case that could be taken lightly it was something that would decide the life and death of someone dear to her,her mother in specifically,time was precious at the moment and before the poison would kill her mother we needed to get into the dungeon as quickly as possible and search for the
If such delays continue I am not sure if rimulu will continue to be docile and obedient like this anymore she may even decide to go on her own and do this by herself,getting killed in the process because of her injuries that weren't healed yet in her dragon form..
That I could definitely not let happen at any cost.
I vowed to myself looking away from rimulu at the same time as I didn't want to upset her anymore nor break my promise.
-Wylniva do you think we can still get to the dungeon today ?
I asked,standing next to wylniva as the other girls were still making quick preparations to saddle in again,they still weren't experienced with riding their beast mounts even while coming here some of the girls had to try really hard to keep their balance on their mounts without falling off to the ground,the only reason they were able to move so courageously while on beast back was because it was urgent,but now that the tense feeling was gone and I was safe some amount of clumsiness returned that made it troublesome for them,luckily they gained some amount of insight in riding while coming here so I can't say that this was a fruitless event even if it was forced.
Wylniva hearing my question seemed a bit surprised,not sure how to answer as she spoke to me with her honest opinion crossing her arms while also shuffling her beautiful black hair behind her back.
-My lord,you still think of continuing ?...Hmm seeing that only the two of us are relatively spend and the others are fine I can't say that we can't still go there...In either case it will still all depend on the dungeon itself who knows maybe its going to be much harder then anticipated.But rather then that there is something else that is bother me...
Wylniva murmured that last sentence if it wasn't for me being so close to her I probably wouldn't have heard it,but hearing her say that,I could immediately guess what she was getting at,after all,with the forced encounter of the beastmen and one of them calling the other princess nonetheless,I can't help but feel as if there is something much more going on then I initially thought it was,wylniva wasn't exempt from this either as the conversation we had on the flight showed that she seemed to know something after all when that princess gave her name to us.
I looked at her,keeping my gaze at her sharply as if trying to get the answer out of her that way while watching her getting lost in thought,it didn't take long for her to notice my gaze and after seeing it she quickly came back to herself smiling at me seductively while licking her red lips with heated eyes.
-What ? Do you want something my lord ? I will give it you whenever you want..you just need to ask~...
She said playfully,quickly getting back to her usual persona as if nothing happened for the past few minutes of our lives that could have been our last,she was someone easy going with eyes always aiming towards her goal and loyal nonetheless,
After experiencing everything with her,I couldn't say that I didn't like that part about her she was a bit scheming most likely,but I didn't feel like keeping my guard with her anymore,after seeing her getting scared so much towards despair.
How should I say it ? It was fun I guess.
I smiled,seeing me smile all of a sudden wylniva felt a bit confused,but that confusion only held for a couple seconds until it was replaced by small amounts of surprise the reason for it being my hand that had suddenly come up her left cheek caressing it gently within my palm as I spoke to her softly with kind glint in my eyes.
-I am glad you are okay

The words themselves just seemed so little if you think about it,but after hearing them wylniva couldn't help but freeze and stare at me wide eyed without saying a word,this little interaction continued for about a few more seconds until I felt someone from behind pulling me to their chest with a irritated growl that followed.
-What are you two doing ? Did something happen while we were gone ?
Hoboku asked suspiciously,hearing and feeling her plain jealousy through both tongue and soul I couldn't do anything,but smile wryly and it wasn't only just her hobusaku and hobura were also here crossing their arms in a strict way while glaring at both me and wylniva as if we were doing something taboo even though it really wasn't anything dirty,still me getting all friendly with wylniva like this must have made them a bit too worked up then normally which was sort of my fault to be fair.
Wylniva quickly came back to herself upon seeing the trio behind me,she obviously knew what those eyes meant that were directed towards her and could feel those emotions that welled in the air easily as she narrowed her eyes a bit watching the 3 behind me,her usual response to this would be a rude or teasing response depending on the reception she got,but for this one instant I felt that she had a somewhat change of heart when she spoke.
-Hmph...What ? Your pets don't like me talking to you anymore ? I think their paranoia had gotten into a whole new level after getting separated for a few minutes can't you have your own opinion now ? Its a bit shameful don't you think ?
She said,her expression showing more then a bit of disgust and anger as she left without hearing a second word,her sudden outburst left me momentarily surprised as I didn't expect her to say something like that even her emotions were a bit jumbled switching between anger,loneliness and lust,luckily neither hoboku,hobusaku nor hobura could understand wylniva's foreign speech which made it so much more troublesome as three girls obviously caught onto the hostile tone of hers and looked at me as if waiting for me to tell them what she just said to them.
I sighed turning around as I stared at the 3 beauties behind me.
-Girls,I understand you being worried,but can you please be not so hard on wylniva,I know that I was a bit too close to her for comfort,but that was only because I thanked her,without her I don't think we would be standing here talking like this...
I said,trying to lessen this hostile relationship some bit as I faced the girls explaining them what was going on and lecturing them at the same time,their response to my explanation was a bit mixed with faint unyielding grunts and lowered heads,but they quickly understood and told me they would try even if they were a bit unwilling.
Hoboku was the still a bit unconvinced about something even though she knew that I wasn't doing anything devious or trying to break my promise she still continued to stare at wylniva from afar while thinking about something intensely,I couldn't figure out what she was really thinking and because she wasn't answering me when I questioned her I had no choice,but get close to her and squeeze her butt.
-Uhh ?
Her response to this lewd action was pretty immediate as she suddenly looked at me with a hot glint in her eyes having finally pulled her attention towards me again I laughed for a second still groping and massaging her plumb butt to make her feel good..
-What is it ? Is there still something you want to say ?
I asked,it took hoboku more then a few minutes to properly answer as she seemed to be really lost in the joy of her having her butt squeezed by me,hobusaku and hobura who were watching by the side could only watch enviously as they also seemed to yearn for this treatment themselves waiting patiently as if hoping they would get something too.
-Hnn...My lord...don't you think..that..that she changed somewhat ? Just now the...way she looked at you made me feel a bit concerned thats all...
She said,trying her best to keep her moans to herself while also enjoying the grip of my hands kneading her butt into shape.
Her little concern didn't actually sound very weird to me as I also had that very same though a moment ago when listening to wylinva and watching her look at me,maybe she got a bit uncomfortable after being completely exposed to me emotionally or maybe she is tired and isn't acting like herself,in either case I still wouldn't say that any of these reasons would warrant hoboku watching her so strange just until now I was sure that these two in particular had a pretty understanding with each other,but now...it just seemed weird.
In the end,I didn't try to pursue this matter anymore and just let it go,hoboku also didn't think about this anymore after the massage and instead constantly tried to kidnap me into one of the bushes or grope me while I wasn't looking and because hobura and hobusaku were waiting patiently the whole time I couldn't help,but feel bad for them which is why I gave them a small service to make them motivated again.
And while all this was happening,I didn't notice wylniva's far away gaze watching me intently.
