After our impromptu shopping trip, Odeta and Katsuki proceeded back home first with our items while I stayed behind on the ship with Lisa for the event she wanted to participate in.

Emilia was still accompanying us though, which I felt I had to ask.

"Are you sure it's alright for you to stay with us?"

She smiled at me, "Of course, Lady Aster. My people are competent enough to keep things running without my constant input. If they need my help, then that's when they'll find me."

Lisa leaned closer to me and giggled, "Ehehe~ It's actually so that she can be free to run around and find more ways to make money~ Right now, her biggest money maker potential is you~"

Emilia blushed but did not say anything to refute her, probably because it was true.

Well, I don't blame her since I already know that she possessed a merchant's mentality and at least she wasn't the unscrupulous kind of merchant who was trying to scam us.

I decided to throw Emilia a lifeline by trying to change the subject, "So… Do you have any stores around that are focused on sweets or desserts?"

Emilia blinked at me, "Eh? Umm... There isn't any."

What?!!

You have such a big ship travelling around the World and obtaining various wares from different cultures and races but you have nothing related to sweets?!!!

This place sucks! How can there be no sweet or dessert shops in this entire ship?! I'm definitely not spending my vacation here!

As though reading my mind, Emilia quickly explained, "Umm… The reason why there aren't any patisseries is that no one tried to set up one here… I have tried getting a few to set up shop on the ship but it seems like most of their sweets are locally sourced and difficult for them to set up here while maintaining their quality… So they figured it wasn't profitable for them to do it…"

"Ah… Really? But surely there's some that can work with normal ingredients right?" I pointed out.

Emilia pursed her lips, "I apologise, but I'm not very familiar with desserts in the first place so I'm not sure why there aren't any applicants either. Not many people request for such a service either so we saw no need to pay much attention to this."

Wow, I never knew the people who come here are so uncultured…

"What about the cake that would be acting as the prize for the event we'll be participating in?!"

Surely the cake wasn't a lie right?!

"We do transport desserts and sweets on this ship from other countries to sell at least…"

"Is there not even a cafe or something here? A bakery maybe?"

"Oh we have those. We just don't have shops dedicated to desserts in particular like a patisserie."

Ok, that's better. That means there are at least sweets available on board this ship instead of having nothing at all. This place doesn't suck as much anymore and I can feel safe spending my vacation here now.

Still… Isn't it a shame that there isn't a dessert shop here? Maybe… Maybe I can be the one to set it up? I'll have to worry about the logistics I guess but it's a possibility.

Right then, a crew member passed by while ringing a bell, "Guests interested in joining our Love Couple event should head to the lower decks soon! The event will be starting in another half an hour!"

Lisa's face brightened up, "Oh! That's the one! We should go before we miss it, Aster!"

She didn't even wait for my response before she started pulling on my hand towards the lower decks and leaving a stunned Emilia behind.

If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

When we reached the location of the event, we found ourselves in a sort of hall that had at least twenty to thirty other couples gathered there facing towards a stage.

Most of them were male and female couples but there were a few gay and lesbian couples alongside some futas as well.

There were beddings spread out around the ground and I feel like I know what this event might be about…

I did notice that there were also others who were standing by the side of the hall, acting like spectators.

"Ummm Lisa? I thought you said only couples were allowed here? Why are those people there?" I asked.

"Hmm? Oh! Those must be people who are also in a relationship with the couples here! Since the event only allows a pair, the others would watch instead~"

Ah, so that's how it is.

"Ok, so what do we need to do for this event? Is it some kind of quiz show or something?" I asked, hoping that those beddings weren't for what I think they were.

Before Lisa could answer, someone walked up on the stage and started to address everyone gathered in the hall.

"Welcome today's couples participating in our event tonight! I shall be your host for this evening and I thank you all for coming!"

Some people laughed as though he had just said a joke but I didn't get it.

"Our prize for tonight is the famed Couple Chocolate Cake from Kiss Patisserie in the Nekinumi Kingdom! Now the rules are simple! The couple that lasts the longest will get the prize! We have prepared the aphrodisiacs on the tables in front of the stage and both participants are required to drink it! The couple that lasts the longest will receive the prize!"

…

I knew it!!

I turned to pout at Lisa.

The Infrid smiled coquettishly at me, "Ehehe~ It's an event where couples would compete in endurance sex with other couples~ Don't worry! The aphrodisiac is a mild one! It's just enough to get you to want to keep thrusting your hips so that couples can't cheat by moving slowly!"

That's not even what I was worried about! I should have known this event was something sexual with you involved! Is it too late to back out now?!

"And here is the prize for this evening!" The announcer continued while I was still thinking of whether I should just escape this place.

A cart was wheeled onto the stage and a giant four tiered chocolate cake was revealed. It was topped with even more chocolate pieces and the fudge covering every layer was glistening in the light. The smell of the chocolate wafted throughout the hall and that was enough to make my mouth water.

Ok, I'm definitely getting that cake no matter what!!

"How is it, dear guests? The event will start in a minute so please take a bottle of the aphrodisiac each and we will start in a minute!"

I immediately turned to my Infrid lover, "Lisa!! We're winning this!! Get me that aphrodisiac right now!!"

"Ehehehe~ Coming right up!"

Lisa quickly went to pick up two bottles from the table and returned to me, passing over one of them and immediately downing the contents of the other one.

With nothing else left to lose, I drank mine quickly as well, feeling my body heating up almost immediately.

I felt a stirring in my loins as the aphrodisiac took effect, my cock slowly but surely hardening into full erection.

I was already stripping myself out of my clothes even as the emcee announced the start of the event, prompting couples all around us to start their own lovemaking sessions.

Lisa was faster than me in stripping herself naked and she quickly pushed me down onto the bedding. She still had the ring that prevented others from perceiving her appearance but I got the feeling that she was drooling at the sight of me right now.

She stripped off the rest of my clothes before diving in between my legs, her mouth and hands wrapping around my cock that was throbbing with need.

I gasped as the aphrodisiac made me feel more sensitive than normal and my hips lifted involuntarily from the pleasure.

Lisa was not holding back either as she started pumping my cock at full speed while her head bobbed up and down on my shaft while trying to suck out my seed.

I was vaguely aware of the various moans and groans coming from the other couples around us, some of them starting out with foreplay while others had already started fucking each other from the beginning, their screams of pleasure mixing in with the moans.

A few of the spectators had even started masturbating at the sight too, adding their own moans to the chorus.

My Infrid showed no care towards the others around us and fully concentrated on pleasuring me, her mouth sucking my shaft while her tongue constantly tickled my length.

It didn't take long before I came into Lisa's mouth, the Infrid swallowing every bit of my cum without spilling a single drop.

She took everything and swallowed it like it was a delicacy, letting out a moan of pleasure even as she pulled back and released my cock with a 'pop'.

I didn't even have time to rest before she had gone ahead to mount me, her pussy hovering above my cock while her own cock was also standing upright at attention.

"Ohhh~ Asteeeerr~~ Fill up my pussy with your cum too~" She moaned before sitting herself down on my cock.

That was when I lost myself in the haze of lust as she bounced up and down on top of me, our moans mixing with the other couples' inside the hall.

All I could think about was fucking the really sexy Infrid above me and making her moan out in pleasure, not even caring that there were others around us that may be watching us make love.

I can't really remember what happened next since the aphrodisiac was clouding my senses, but I know I kept fucking her in various other positions through the night.

It's all for the cake ok?!
