I felt how Cassandra pressed her body against me and her breath near my lips and how she touched my burned skin.
- Keirin, do you have any idea what my father and mother are up to? - I asked, enjoying the touch of the dark elf. -One of the reasons is to show that they have a connection with someone who married two princesses and has a third as a servant. Even if this news has not yet leaked from the academy, then either at the tournament of six academies or at the ball everyone will start to find out
The dark elf froze listening to what I said and, having listened to me, began to run her fingers over my clothes. Squeezing her waist with my hand and holding her close to me with the other, I kissed her and then let her go.
- Do you think they want to try, if not recruit you, then reveal your importance to all the nobles? - Keirin asked thoughtfully. - Then why send your wives?
Running my fingers along the back of the dark elf sitting on me, touching her hair with my fingers, I opened my eyes and smiled, observing the expression on Cassandra's face, which showed various thoughts and desires.
- First of all, the Kray Empire will not lose anything from the presence of two former princesses. But it will only acquire a significant appearance in relation to other kingdoms and empires of the human race. - I said, passing my hand below the dark elf's waist. - The girls will see where I lived and will be able to get acquainted with information that would not have been shared with me.
I saw how the dark elf tried not to show or react to my touches of the lower waist, but her look showed how difficult it was for her to control herself now.
- Based on your words, everyone will get what they wanted only in a changed image. - Keirin said understandingly. - What do you want to do when Trey's ball takes place?
Smiling at Keirin's understanding and her question, I already had an answer to it. After I received the title of mercenary, now it will not surprise anyone that I decide to carry out tasks not from the academy.
- I want to go to one of the dungeons where the monsters live. - I answered the light elf, having heard what I wanted to do, Cassandra looked at me with a wary gaze. - And of course you will go with me, Keirin.
I knew little about the dungeons where the monsters lived, some were in abandoned villages where large packs of monsters settled.
Some built their lairs deep in the ground and went out to hunt at night, many small towns placed orders to protect cities from attack before clearing the lair of monsters that were disturbing the employer.
- We just returned from one mission and almost immediately want to go on another mission? - Wanting to hear me, Keirin asked. - You know that clearing a lair is beyond the power of one mercenary and they hire more than one or two?
Sighing, I just grinned at the words of the light elf. Cassandra wanted to say something, but due to the fact that her voice had the ability to switch to a different key, she restrained herself from speaking.
She could only listen carefully to what Keirin and I were saying and look at me with a look that said that I was lucky that she did not have the opportunity to say something now.
- Yes, I was told in the Cray Empire that they usually hired a group of experienced mercenaries to clear out the lair where the monsters lived. - I answered with nostalgia in my voice, continuing to move my hand below the dark elf's waist and squeezing her butt. - I will only use a sword and if there is a danger that threatens us, I will use magic and torturers.
I felt how the dark elf began to move her pelvis and press against me and her breathing became more and more intermittent.
Remembering the professor's words that many warriors try to throw out their emotions during a battle, I was wondering how she was coping now.
- Even if we go on missions when the academy is on vacation, do you still have exams or have you forgotten? - Keirin asked, from her voice I understood that she accepted my plan. - You need to pass it first, don't rely on my memories or your wives, the exams change every year. And let me remind you, we were gone for two months.
Having winced at the fact that Keirin was right regarding the exams, due to my absence and the fact that I was never present at the antidote lesson, problems could arise with passing the exams.
I had doubts that Suga'Tin would allow me to be expelled from the academy, but I didn't want to owe him more than I already do.
- There is truth in your words Keirin. - I said, raising my hand back to Cassandra's waist and pressing her to me with the other hand. - I can only hope that even with missing classes and the whole course on antidote, I will have the opportunity to pass the exams.
Sounds were heard from the side where Keirin was sitting, slightly moving the dark elf and looking in the direction where the sounds were coming from, I saw Samantha getting out from under the blanket and looking around her with a still lost look.
Having made sure where she was, the girl turned her gaze to me and Cassandra, who was clinging to me, Samantha's face began to change, filling with embarrassment and what she apparently began to remember.
Looking at my hand, on which a snake was visible, and at her own, she was convinced that she had not dreamed about the wedding ritual.
- Apparently I fell asleep after the wedding ritual. - Samantha said in a sleepy voice, looking from me and Cassandra to her sister. - I had a strange dream.
Laughing at the statement about the strange dream, I attracted the attention of the girl who, still sleepy, was trying to understand the reason for what caused my laughter.
- What you took for a dream was not it, dear sister. - Keirin said in a hasty voice, throwing an irritated look at me. - You lost consciousness when you heard the truth.
The girl began to blink rapidly and looked quickly from me to Cassandra and her sister, expecting us to say that everything said earlier was a joke.
But seeing that we weren't laughing and were only becoming even more serious, Samantha began to take deep breaths trying to calm down, while we silently watched the behavior of the light elf.
Our attempts to talk to her or explain everything would have a backlash. Based on our experience with Cassandra, we had to wait until Samantha calmed down for further conversation.
- It's good if what I heard was not my dream but in reality. - The girl said in a quiet voice, looking from her sister to her friend. - How long did they know the truth? And why didn't they say anything?
Observing the behavior of the light elf who looked at us expectantly, there was anger and resentment in her gaze that she had not been told earlier that I was chosen by the goddess Ges.
- How do you imagine this conversation? And we must not forget if others find out about who Trey is and danger awaits us. - I heard the irritated voice of Cassandra, who got off my lap and looked intently at her friend. - Would you believe what you heard before the wedding ritual, or maybe you would have abandoned it after learning the truth?
The light elf tried to speak, but the questions that the dark elf asked her stopped her from speaking.
Having fallen silent and thinking about what her friend had said, Samantha leaned back on the sofa and looked with interest at me and Cassandra sitting next to me.
- You're right, I wouldn't believe what I heard, even considering that Trey has dark magic. - The girl answered thoughtfully. - You didn't go on missions just to get academy currency, right?
It was clear from Samantha's behavior that she had not yet fully accepted what her sister had told her and was trying in every possible way to check whether she was sleeping or not, waiting for an answer to her previously asked question.
- You're right, Keirin and I went mainly because the caravan passed near the place where the Avels once lived. - I answered, confirming her question; I could see Samantha cast a suspicious glance at her friend. - And no, Cassandra did not know about our plan to penetrate the avel capital.
Telling Samantha about how our original plan changed due to the attack of robbers on the caravan. And taking advantage of the opportunity, we left the caravan, about how we freed the girls and how I went alone to the capital of the avels.
About a dream where the spirit of the forest came to me and how he told me that the chosen ones have their own style of sword and I needed to get into the sanctuary of the gods.
