"Why were you in the woods little one?"
"I was logging wood for my family."
"You're a good boy."
Whilst hugging my arm between her cleavage. Lisa keeps having a conversation with me. Does she even have dignity as a woman?
She's so flirty, though I don't hate it.
She's not even phased with the situation. If not for our other companions, Amber, Lumine, and Noelle. I would have eaten this woman in the middle of the forest.
Our groups arrived at the second part of the plan.
"Who is there!"
Amber suddenly stopped as she shouted filled with vigilance. Our steps stopped when she shouted. Looking around the early silence of the forest.
I pretend to be trembling as I put my arms around Lisa's waist while smiling slyly. I buried my head in her deep ravine again.
"Here Here, don't be an afraid little one. I will protect you."
With a charming smile, Lisa grabbed my head as she pulled my head more deeply. She knows my intentions very well.
Lumine and the others did not notice our rendezvous, they thought I was acting.
I slowly slid my hand down to her rear rump giving it a good squeeze. I heard Lisa's lovely moan.
"Naughty kid~"
Whispering with an erotic voice, Lisa tightened her embrace of my head.
Anyway, Enough playing around. The culprits are showing up. With a blink, Multiple Abyss Mages of different types teleported around us.
"Kekeke, Foolish Humans! I'm back!"
The Cryo Abyss Mage showed up and laughed hysterically. With 7 other Abyss Mages with it.
Things just got better. This is a considerable force. If we can eliminate them it would be good.
Behind them were a bunch of Mitachurls and Hilichurls. There are about hundreds of them. If you think this is very excessive, nope it's not.
Vision holders are very powerful as they are chosen by gods. Abyss Order knows better.
"Lumine."
Huddled up together, circling Lumine. Lumine nodded as our surroundings distorted.
Then our groups disappeared before the enemies.
"What!?"
The Abyss Mages cried out. They were confused as to how we disappeared. Not far away from the location, on a hill, there is a structure of a teleport waypoint.
"And Kaboom!"
I said.
A loud rumbling explosion can be heard from a distance. The Abyss Order that sets on ambushing us perished without a corpse.
With Lumine's teleportation skills, we can abuse it.
There should be a huge question that everybody loves to ask. If Lumine can use the waypoint unlimitedly, why can't she teleport to Mondstadt to tell Jean or teleport the Reinforcement team?
It's because the Reinforcement is already on the way. We don't know where they are right now. Looking for them en route would be a waste of time.
So I came up with a plan to use explosives to lure a part of the enemy to dwindle their troops. These explosives come from Mondstadt. It's not one Element Explosive, but all Element Explosives.
Using one type of explosive cannot destroy an Abyss Mage shield. Using other Elements is a must.
The result is satisfactory. The lured Abyss Order disintegrated.
...
"Ronan, Wouldn't they just revive?"
Amber asked me, she's quite skeptical. But I don't blame her.
"Amber, if they can abuse the ritual. The Abyss Order will not surround Calla City for hours. There should be a price for doing a ritual isn't it, Ronan?"
Lisa answered Amber's question. I nodded.
"Lisa is right. I don't have proof but seeing the Abyss Order did not make a move. It would mean they can't rely on the Ritual."
Amber listened well, humming in understanding.
"Where did you get that many explosives? Look! it's even forming mushroom-like clouds. I can even feel the ground shaking."
Over the horizon, A huge mushroom-like cloud formed up as Amber said. This is due to many explosives detonated in one go. I can feel the Elemental Particles shaking violently as they form a huge elemental vortex up above.
It was devastating to behold. The forest became barren and the land gorged up into a crater. Some surviving trees are leaning on the side.
"We were just in there a few seconds ago. It's scary! How did you come up with this kind of plan Ronan!"
Paimon suddenly appeared. She had been hiding since earlier. She didn't do dare to utter a word of fear the act would be found out.
At first, she wanted to be part of the plan but Lumine sermoned her.
"Master Jean gave it to us. She asked me to use it freely. Well, there were tons of explosives in the arsenal so I couldn't help but take a handful."
Hand akimbo, I proudly said.
"Handful? How is this handful?"
Tilting their heads in confusion they asked.
...
3rd of the Abyss Order was obliterated in ashes. The main force reaction can be guessed. They retreated.
The plan was foiled. They don't have any information other than the last seen detached troops missing on a large crater. Seeing that their enemy had a powerful weapon they did not hesitate to retreat.
Reluctantly but the Abyss Order are not idiots if they know when to retreat.
It was just a simple plan really. Not grandiose or something. I was just using the move, to make your enemy fear the unknown.
After the Abyss Order retreated the people of Calla City cheered in unison. Loud cheering noises reverberated in the city.
Rizark who was still on the wall is still serious. Watching the retreating Abyss Order.
"They will not give up easily. We have to fortify our defenses and be vigilant at all times. Grandmaster Varka took the main force with him in an expedition and these Abyss Orders are using this opportunity to attack us. They will not let this opportunity come to waste."
After the plan, We got back to the wall in Calla. Hearing Rizark's conclusion no one objected. What he said is true.
"But, victory is Victory!"
Showing his teeth, Rizark laughed wildly.
...
I relax my body on Eula's thighs. Right now, we are at her house in Calla City. Eula prefers living outside the city for most of the time.
Combing my hair with her fair lovely hand.
"I heard about it. You harmed yourself."
"Ah, that. I just want the act to be more realistic."
I answered nonchalantly. I was lying with my head on the side so I couldn't tell her expression.
"Don't worry it's just a small wound. It didn't even hurt. See, there is a medicine for it though. It didn't even leave a scar."
"Sigh~ what do I do with you? You just do whatever you want."
"I already told you what kind of man I am. When I work on something, I will focus on it until I achieve the best work."
"..."
She became silent for a while before opening her mouth.
"Promise me not to overdo it. You don't want me to be widowed don't you?"
"Hey, don't kill me like that. Of course, I will not be excessive. Also, how could I leave a beautiful woman behind?"
"That woman, how did you get into her eyes?"
Her hands that were combing my hair stopped.
"I don't know, she told me she was curious about the man who can conquer you. When she found out I was capable, she began to flirt with me openly."
"A witch indeed. She lives up to her name." Eula placed her hand on her forehead, shaking her head.
"Witch huh, how many victims did she set her eyes on?"
I do not know Lisa's background story very much. Since I decided to eat her, I'm very curious about her.
"As far I've known, she only targets girls. She is a weird woman. I've never heard of her seeing any man."
That's quite convenient. Did I just got sent into some fantastical vanilla world or something? My romance is smooth sailing as far I'm concerned.
Shaking those thoughts away. Even if I do, I thank that person for giving me this opportunity.
"I see."
"Do you like her?"
Here it is, the million mora question. One wrong answer, all of it goes down to drain.
"...To be honest, I do. But you know, I have you first. I want to know what you think instead."
I raised my body, sitting next to her. I put my hand on her face, caressing her cheek gently. Rubbing her lips with my thumb.
Eula stared at my eyes unwavering.
"Why do you men loves to have many women? I see the commoner's family they only have one spouse. Why can't you be like them?"
"...I can't answer all for the men. Eula, I am of my own. If you are against it, I will not force you. I will respect your choice."
Eula lean her head on my shoulder. She was thinking deep inside her. When he told her about himself, how he would love other women in the future. He gave her choice to choose.
Her answer is already obvious.
"I have already picked my choice."
