Chapter 24 - A night at the Inn

During the several days that Willow and Aria spent together that week, a friendship blossomed between them during the day, with them working as a team and also with Aria giving Willow tips.

"That's it! You're doing great, but try to control your mana output a bit more." Aria said, as Willow was raising his spear into the air on the certain day.

Magnetism Magic was very useful in combat, but Willow was getting used to using it. As he used to use up a lot of his mana with each use of this skill, he was trying to learn how to control it so that he could use this skill more often during a fight rather than just when he was desperate.

Unfortunately, not all creatures were composed of iron or steel, like the Beast of Carnage, so Willow needed to think of ingenious ways to use the only magical ability he had obtained.

However, while Willow and Aria during the day seemed like good friends and, in the eyes of some in the guild, even a master and an apprentice, during the night, in order to save money for the mission, they got used to sharing a bed. This could be dangerous for their relationship, because human warmth, especially on the most extreme nights, could be really exciting. Yet somehow, during the almost a week that they shared a bed, nothing happened between them.

Willow was pretty sure that Aria saw him only as a younger brother, and he certainly wasn't wrong, as she was always stroking his head, messing up his hair, and complimenting him on his growth. What's more, at no time did she desire him as a man, because he could literally see her feelings all the time with his class's unique ability, <Vision of Eros>, but she never gave any sign that she desired him.

Well, that never happened, at least not until the night of their eighth day together.

Just like every other night, Willow and Aria were sharing a small bed in one of the cheapest inns in Pavagar. Earlier, they had gone to sleep as normal, and with no more hope of anything happening between them, Willow had fallen asleep within minutes of them going to bed. However, during the night, he began to hear some strange sounds that woke him from his light sleep.

His eyes opened slowly, still trying to understand exactly what those sounds were. He looked first at the wooden ceiling, then at the wall to his right and the door. There was nothing out of place. The inn was silent too, indicating that it was already closed, and Pavagar was very quiet in the early hours of the morning. Even so, the sounds continued. Willow, still brain-fogged, was regaining his senses, and his hearing was getting sharper as the first few seconds of waking passed.

The sound he had been hearing all this time was a gasping breath, accompanied by something wet closing in.

Finally, Willow realized that the sounds weren't coming from far away. Then he looked at Aria and saw her bare and white back.

For some reason, Aria was shivering. Was she cold? No, it couldn't be cold because she was sweating, and warmth was coming from her body.

'She's not doing... is she?' Willow wondered.

However, with her back to Willow, it was impossible for him to see if Aria was even awake. So Willow decided to use the resources she had to help him.

-:|:-

Name: Aria Valenwood

Race: Elf

Level: 108

Description: She's extremely excited.

Emotions: Excitement, Confused?, Awake

-:|:-

Willow's natural reaction was to be wide-eyed and surprised by the information the ability was showing him. He had no doubt that the panting was Aria's, there was no way it could be anyone else's, and that word... Excitement... Willow had never imagined that he would see such emotion in Aria or that she would do such a thing being literally in the same bed as her, because she seemed so pure and noble that it didn't seem like something Aria would do.

As he thought about it, he realized that he had put Aria on an unreachable pedestal, and that was why he hadn't even tried to have anything with her all those days.

At that moment, what Willow felt was not a mental snap but a light bulb going on in his mind and making his thoughts clearer, as well as what he should do.

However, there was no way for the system to know whether Willow had realized this or not, so it decided to give him one more push.

[You've been given a new Mission of Opportunity!]

[Mission of Opportunity: A night at the Inn

Description: Aria Valenwood seems lonely. Help her out.

Objective: Have sex with Aria Valenwood.

Difficulty: D.

Rewards:

+2000 XP

+1 Skill Point.

+1 Heart with Aria Valenwood].

The objective was so clear that it left no room for interpretation, but Willow didn't care. Even if the mission hadn't come up, he would have tried it, anyway. After all, he was a grown man and had not had a woman in his arms for a long, long time.

When Willow lifted his back and sat on the bed, Aria was surprised, held her breath and lay still for a few seconds to pretend she was asleep. However, she didn't have time to remove one of her hands from between her thighs.

'Just as I imagined...'

Willow smiled and lay down again, which almost made Aria sigh with relief. For a few moments, she thought she had managed to hide well, but then Willow whispered in her ear:

"Were you doing that next to me? Ah~ How indecent..."

Her eyes widened, but a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. While one part of her feared that she would be seen doing that, another was hopeful that it would happen.

Aria turned towards Willow and looked him in the eye. At that moment, Willow felt his heart race. Aria, with her cheeks rosy and her eyelids halfway up, her eyes from excitement, was at her most beautiful and vulnerable. So Willow smiled, brushed away a lock of white hair that fell across her face, and put his right hand on the back of her head. In the next instant, he pulled her close and their lips came within inches of touching.

"Just let me confirm something, so there's no room for any other interpretation... You want this, don't you?"

Her eyes shifted for a moment, but then she looked back at Willow and said, "Right now... more than anything else in the world, but I'll hit you if it hurts."

'Oh, so she's a tsundere when she's horny.' Willow thought, smiled, and finally brushed his lips against hers.

Her lips weren't very thick, but they were extremely soft and smooth. So the kiss fit easily and, for the first time in a long time, Willow felt the warmth of another person's breath invading his mouth.

Aria clearly wasn't very experienced. In fact, it was possible to say that she had no experience at all, which was why Willow had to guide her as he slowly introduced his tongue into her mouth.

It wasn't long before the atmosphere quickly began to heat up more and more. Carefully, Willow placed one of his hands on one of the straps of Aria's nightgown and slid it down to her shoulders. Then Willow began to move slowly downwards with kisses. He kissed the side of her neck, causing a shiver to run through him, then a little further down, her shoulder, a little above her breast and with his right hand he managed to undo the clasp of her bra, freeing them before his eyes.

"Now I know where all that food goes," said Willow.

"Willow..." Aria murmured, a little embarrassed, but he wouldn't stop being so close to the pot of gold.

Her breasts were large, but not huge. They were round and perfectly firm, possibly because she was still so young. When Willow placed his right hand on one of her breasts, he felt how soft they were. So, on the left breast, he put his mouth to it and began to slowly swirl his tongue around her pink aureole.

Aria knew that the walls of the inn were thin, so to prevent her moans from being heard, she put one of her hands over her mouth and closed her eyes.

"Mmm..."

Willow, however, could hear her clearly. He even heard the little startled moan as he began to move lower and lower, kissing her belly and getting closer to what he really wanted. The moment he reached her skirt, he lifted it and saw the white panties she was wearing completely soaked through.

'She's ready for this. But this seems to be her first time, so I'd better go through all the steps.' Willow thought.

Sliding her panties down, Willow finally saw her flower. It was dripping like a water mine; it was as pink as a dahlia flower, and it was probably the tightest vagina he had ever seen in his life.
