Towards the Human Kingdom

Saito looked unsure for a second before he said, "Alright." As soon as the word left his lips, the Elf Queen jumped towards and embraced him tightly.

Her busty body stuck together with Saito's body. The Elf Queen's hands were running through his back, she took a deep breath as if she wanted to remember his scent as well.

Saito kept his hands under control even though he wanted to trace her seductive curves, especially that plump butt. However, he knew that if he did that, it would give a wrong idea to Elf Queen and only raise her hopes.

Saito controlled his desires and didn't touch her inappropriately at all. After the hug ended, he gave her a smile, "Stay happy while I am gone. Maybe my answer would be in your favor."

The Elf Queen had a smile on her face, she didn't notice the word "maybe" at all. For her, this was as good as if he said that he would be in an intimate relationship together with her when he returns.

Saito soon left the hall leaving the Elf Queen with an inexplicable feeling. She stared at his back eagerly waiting for the way when he would return back.

Saito let out a sigh when he was out of the hall and thought 'Even though I said it to stall for time and give her a little hope so that she wouldn't be miserable during this time. I hope it won't break her too much if I give her a definite no when I return back here.'

There was another occurrence for which Saito didn't account at all. There was also a strong chance for Saito to accept this relationship after exploring this world and understand how the people lived here, and the way society had been formed here. He just needed time to get used to this world.

The Elf Queen sat down on her throne with a heavy feeling weighing down on her heart. Saito though flew down, a bit relieved. He noticed Lyra sitting on top of Emma, ready to move out.

Saito smiled a bit and flew towards her, Lyra was a little surprised to see him flying in the air and groaned, "I also want to learn how to fly!"

Saito touched her face and said, "Remain seated for now. When we reach the Human Kingdom, I will teach you how to fly."

Saito sat on top of Joergen, both the master and the pet could fly and reach the Human Kingdom but they didn't do that. Saito ordered Joergen with a neutral look, "Joergen, make sure to keep your speed similar to Emma's speed. Don't run so fast that she would have to overexert herself."

Joergen nodded his head and replies, "Yes master. That was what I planned to do anyways."

"Great. Now let's move!" Saito said that as he seated on top of Joergen. Lyra was also seated on top of Emma, she looked pretty comfortable seated them but was surprised when Emma jumped forwards.

Her whole body shook, she was unable to get used to this sudden speed of Emma. Joergen quickly caught up to them, Saito noticed that Lyra wasn't used to the high speed.

He thought of another plan in his head quickly, he suddenly ordered them both, "Both of you, stop!"

Joergen and Emma suddenly stopped, they both looked at each other wondering why Saito had ordered this. Saito stared at Lyra and said, "Lyra… come here."

He asked for Lyra to come and sit in front of him. Joergen was large and broad enough for her to sit on top of him. Lyra thought for a few seconds before she asked Saito, "What about Emma?"

Saito gave her a smile and proceeded to tell her, "Emma can use her skill Shadow Blend to stick into Joergen's shadow. Joergen can fly in the air and you wouldn't be uncomfortable with the high speed then."

From his words, Lyra understood that he was doing this to make sure she was comfortable while travelling. If she was sitting together with Saito, she definitely wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

She lowered her head and thought that she was troubling Saito. Before she thought any further, she heard him speak, "What are you thinking? I just want to hold you while we are on this journey to the Human Kingdom. Don't you want me to hug you wifey~?"

He made a pitiful look as Saito said that. Lyra chuckled at his words and got down from Emma. Saito got back a little and created some place for her to sit in front of him.

She jumped onto Joergen's back. Emma used her [Shadow Blend] skill to enter Joergen's shadow. Saito's arms snaked around Lyra's slim waist as he hugged her from behind.

He kissed her neck and later ordered Joergen, "In the skies, Joergen!" Lyra was incomparably excited; she wasn't scared at all while she was seated on top of Joergen and now that they were flying high up in the air.

The only thing going on was her heart racing. Saito whispered softly, "Umm… Lyra's body is so soft. I want to hold you like this forever."

Lyra though replied back, "Mou~ That's cheating~ I want to hold Axel forever as well~ I can't hold Axel when I am seated like this~"

Saito as if ignored her words and rubbed his head against her back, he couldn't believe how lucky he was to have her as his wife. She was so beautiful, so understanding, and also so nice.

Joergen was flying at his top speed yet Lyra wasn't nervous at all. Her heart was in turmoil as she felt Saito's head which rested against her back.

She didn't understand why she felt so strongly for him. He was so nice to her; he risked his life to save her younger brother when they didn't even have any connection to him. He took care of both of them, trained them even though they were nothing but trouble for him.

He was the Hero of her Race yet he never tried this title to his advantage. Her whole race would have submitted to him if he so desired yet here he was, going on an adventure together with her.

She vowed within her heart 'I will do anything to make sure Axel is happy. I won't try to restrict him or his feelings.'

Saito continued to hold onto Lyra while they were flying their way towards the Human Kingdom. Even though it was around 1000's of miles away, the speed at which Joergen was flying couldn't be underestimated.

It only took them around a day before they finally reached the Human Kingdom. Right before entering the Human Kingdom, Saito ordered Joergen, "Start the descent now. I don't think the people would like the fact if we land in the city."

Joergen answered him by slowly decreasing his speed and descending down towards the ground. Slowly, the shadow on the ground which had followed them all the way was growing stronger as Joergen continued to descent.

Not long after, Joergen stepped onto the ground. Saito voiced out, "Emma, you can come out now." Emma did come out of the shadow; she looked a little worn out from staying in the shadow.

Saito smiled at her and says, "Now, it's time to go on foot. It would have brought complications if Joergen landed in the city. Keep your speed low, we are very close to the city."

Emma answered back with a soft tone, "Yes master." Lyra seemed a little reluctant to part away from Saito, she had gotten used to placing her head on Saito's chest to rest.

She got down from Joergen and rode on top of Emma. Saito thought in his head 'Skill: Illusion!' The Illusion skill was used, Lyra's aura as an Elf disappeared and her appearance changed very slightly, her elf like ears disappeared and were seemingly replaced with the human ears.

If someone touched her ears, they would of course be able to feel her elf ears but the Illusion wouldn't break from something so trivial.
