The lodge looked beautiful beneath the light of the three crescent moons. It sat on its own hill and was formed from dark stone. Esme and I dismounted beneath the hill, since it was too steep to ride up. We followed the dirt path that wound its way around and up the hill.
We arrived at the lodge and noticed that it was crumbling. Stones were missing in the walls.
“It’s like a skeleton of what it once was,” Esme said.
“Where would the shield crystal be?” I asked.
“I think I know. Follow me.”
Esme grabbed a lantern from her soul storage. We walked inside the crumbling, stone building.
A giant spider appeared in the corner of my eye. I dodged the web it shot from its mouth, then drew my ice katana and sliced it in half.
“Of course there were going to be Giant Spiders,” I said.
Esme put the soulcore in her storage. “Sad to see this place overrun like this.”
We walked down the hall until we arrived at a staircase, leading down.
“Mother Ash would keep treasures down here,” Esme said.
“Was she your caretaker?”
Esme nodded. “She was like you. She believed us curseborn could be a force for good.”
We stepped down the stone staircase and arrived in a vast underground hall. Unlike the upstairs, which had been falling apart, the walls down here seemed mostly intact.
Three more spiders appeared at our front. Esme and I slashed them, carefully dodging their web shots.
One of them dropped a shining piece of silk. “Crafting ingredient,” Esme said. “Nice.” She tossed it in her soul storage.
We made our way down the hallway, killing Giant Spiders all the while. It reminded me of my first dungeon in this world, where Esme and I slayed those Fur Ants. More soulcores meant more level ups, items, and gear, so it was never a bad time to clean up trash.
A golden spider hung off a thread in a big, circular room. Slowly, it descended, then dropped to the floor and faced us.
“I think that’s an elite,” Esme said.
“Elite Giant Spider… what kind of moves you think it’ll make?”
Esme hit it with an ice arrow. It took no damage, judging from the fact that no shadows leaked off it.
“Immune to ice,” I said. “Shit.”
All we had were ice attacks.
“We have to go this way to get to the shield crystal.” Esme put her hands on her hips. “Wish we’d brought Ayla along.”
“We could always go back and get her.”
The golden spider chittered, then shot a boiling, purple liquid at us. We backdashed just in time to see the purple goo dissolve the floor where we’d stood.
“I really don’t want to get hit by that.” I reflexively raised my ice katana.
Suddenly, the spider jumped onto the wall. It let out a roar, then flew in the air straight at us.
A fireball hit it. The thing’s body and legs enflamed, and it cried out. A spear made of fire surged through the air and impaled the creature. Shadows bled out of it, and it vanished, leaving a goldcore.
The woman who picked it up had such sumptuous, curly red hair. Her thighs were too big for her thigh-highs, and she wore a skirt that left little to the imagination. I’d only seen her once before, but I could never forget that voluptuous figure. The button holding her shirt together seemed to be fighting for its life, as if her huge tits were eager to pop out.
“Sherry,” Esme said.
Sherry ignored her friend and walked up to me. She held a lantern above her head and stared into my eyes.
“Soulbond with me, Remy.”
“Sherry!” Esme grabbed her friend’s shoulder. “That’s rushing things a bit, don’t you think?”
Sherry grinned, then caressed Esme’s cheek. “It’s good to see you again too, Esme. But I’m the one who brought him here, remember? I should’ve been the first one to soulbond with him.”
I gulped. My dick was hard from staring at her tits, but Esme was right; we ought to have a chat, at least, before we agreed to soulbond.
“Let’s get what we came for,” I said. “The shield crystal.”
Esme walked toward what resembled a fire place. She felt the ground next to it, then pulled up a loose brick. She pulled up more bricks, revealing a trap door.
“I never knew about that.” Sherry bent over to get a closer look at the trap door.
Meanwhile, I got a good look at her thong and the netting around her upper thighs.
Calm yourself I said to my dick. We need to get a lot done today.
But my dick only spoke one language, and it wasn’t English.
The trap door opened to a small crevice. From it, Esme pulled out a gleaming orange crystal. She also pulled out a choker and a bangle.
“These were Mother Ash’s,” Esme said. “I always wondered what they did.”
“You were her favorite, so of course you’d know her secret hiding spot.” Sherry took the choker and held it up to her lantern. “Enhances healing effects by 20%.”
I grabbed it out of her hands. “That’s for Tara.”
She smirked at me. “And who’s Tara? Another lucky woman who gets to ride your cock?” She sounded very jealous.
I cleared my throat. “She’s a water healer.”
“I’m sure she gets all wet for you.”
“Sherry!” Esme pinched her friend’s ear. “Cut it out. Remy’s no creep. You’re being too forward!”
“When I saw Remy driving his car from school, I wanted to stand in the road, knock on his window, climb inside, and fuck him right there, in the driver’s seat. But I didn’t. I said to myself, ‘just wait. Wait till he comes here, and then I can fuck him.’ Well, I waited. And I’m not going to wait much longer.”
The spiders were respawning. They cast strange shadows across the walls.
“Let’s at least get away from the monsters,” I said.
We made our way out, Esme and Sherry arguing the while. I knew what it felt like to be ravenously horny; I’d been a teenager, once, after all, so I could empathize with Sherry. I wondered if she was a virgin, like the four girls in my harem had been before I met them. But considering her forwardness and blatant sexuality, I would guess not.
The idea of being with someone experienced excited me. Someone who might even teach me a thing or two. But I didn’t want to show that excitement until we were somewhere safe.
We all sat in the rickshaw. Sherry rested her thigh over mine, getting close to my boner. Those thighs… I wouldn’t have minded if they strangled me.
Esme pushed her friend’s thigh off me. “Stop, Sherry. You’re not even soulbonded to him yet!”
“All right, all right.” Sherry sighed with disappointment. “You don’t mind my forwardness, do you, Remy?”
“Uhh…” It was actually refreshing. If you wanted to have sex with someone, why not just tell them? Why beat around the bush so much? “I like it, though it does make me a little uncomfortable, but that’s only because I’m not used to it.”
“See?” Esme said. “You’re making him uncomfortable!”
“Don’t be such a prude, Esme.” Sherry crossed her arms.
Esme got up and repositioned herself between us. “No touching until you two are soulbonded.”
“We can soulbond right now,” Sherry said. “What do you say, Remy?”
All my current soulbonds had happened during moments of danger. It almost felt weird to soulbond with someone so casually.
“Let’s at least get back to the temple,” I said so that Esme wouldn’t be upset.
Sherry licked her lips. “Going to make me wait a little longer, eh? All right. I can respect that game.”
We arrived at the fast travel point, then used it to teleport back to the temple.
Ayla, Maria, and Tara were awake. Tara was arguing with the Soulful Doll.
“Tell me where they went!” She stomped her foot, then noticed us materialize. “Oh, thank heavens. Remy!”
Tara ran forward and hugged me. I caressed her silver hair and kissed her on the head.
Ayla ran toward Esme and Sherry.
“Sherry! It’s been forever!” Ayla said.
Sherry giggled. “Damn, you filled out, Ayla. Look at that figure.”
“No… look at you…” Ayla covered her mouth. Both women were curvy and stunning.
“All right, everyone listen up!” I shouted to the room.
I explained my idea. We would use the shield stone to create an area free of monsters. We’d also have to clear the land and make it level enough so we could build structures. Since the swamp down here was also a hot spring, the first order of business was to build an onsen.
“Is an onsen really the priority, here?” Maria asked.
“Yes,” I said. “It’ll help us all relax. Unwind. Let down our walls.” And that seemed to be the secret to leveling up soulbonds, which was still my best way to get stronger.
“But we don’t know the first thing about building an onsen,” said Ayla.
“I know who does.” Tara raised her hand. “The woman who designed the onsen on the island.”
I snapped my fingers. “And where can I find her?”
“At the onsen, of course. She lives on site, in a special villa.”
That would be my next task, then. Unfortunately, we were all wanted by the authorities of the island, so going back there was asking for trouble. Well, everyone except for Sherry.
“Esme, you set up the shield,” I said. “Ayla, Tara, Maria — keep farming for soulcores. I want at least one level up by tomorrow.” I pointed at Sherry, who wouldn’t stop smiling seductively at me. “Sherry, come with me to the onsen. They don’t think you’re part of my harem, so you won’t be suspected.”
The button keeping Sherry’s shirt together really looked like it was about to explode. How big were those tits?
“Just me and Remy,” Sherry said. “That okay with you, Esme?”
Esme nodded. “Whatever Remy wants is okay with me, of course.”
Sherry kissed Esme’s cheek. Esme’s milky skin turned bright red.
“What was that for?” Esme asked.
“Nothing.” Sherry giggled. “I just missed you.”
The two hugged, and it made me feel all warm inside.
