Chapter 181 – To The Old Place [r-18]
[Scene Change]
The number of places I had to summon rain for turned out to be far more than I had expected. I originally thought there would be around 2-3 big towns and 10-15 small villages and that the whole trip would take only two or three days, but I was completely wrong.
There were about 20 large towns and more than 80 villages. Thankfully, many of the oasis were shared between multiple villages, so although there were over 80 villages, I only needed to visit around 35 locations.
In total, I had to use Hydro Convergence more than 60 times. Each day I performed the skill eight to ten times. Because of that, the entire journey took seven full days of traveling and continuous skill usage.
For that I would really like to thank the luxurious carriage. If not, this traveling journey would be no less than hell.
The first day had been relaxing and sunny. I even managed to fuck the queen right in the middle of a village. But after that, I had to keep using the skill over and over, draining my stamina heavily. I barely had any time or energy left to have sex with her. It was using skill, eating and resting.
The queen also had to talk to her subjects and act like proper royalty.
I also didn't complete any new hidden missions during the trip, and the Lust Energy Points I gained from normal missions were much lower than I had hoped.
So overall, the Lust Energy Points I collected were far less than I had anticipated.
Still, there was one good thing — this was the last village where I needed to use Hydro Convergence.
As usual, the villagers had already been informed through Den Den Mushi that the hero could summon rain. So when we arrived, a large crowd was already gathered to welcome us with warm smiles and cheers.
"Welcome, Hero Alex!!"
"Welcome, Queen Titi!!"
The villagers greeted us enthusiastically, their faces full of hope and gratitude. After all, we were going to summon the rain and improve their lives.
The queen and I waved back at them.
I was much less excited than usual because I was exhausted. This was already the fifth village we had visited today, and my stamina was running low. And I was also tired of monotonous work.
The queen, however, handled the welcome like a true politician. She smiled brightly and stepped forward gracefully, shaking hands with the village chief and other important members of the village.
I also forced a smile and talked with them, but I couldn't match the queen's energy or perfect composure.
Meanwhile, the maids took the horses to the side to feed them and let them rest. They made sure not to interfere with our work. They were also adapting to their routine.
We spent some time talking with the villagers. The queen reminded them to prepare containers and set up systems to collect the rainwater efficiently so nothing would be wasted. In the desert, water truly was life.
The villagers had already been told about the miracle by the previous villages, so they were well prepared.
I didn't waste much time either. I raised my hands toward the sky and quietly activated Hydro Convergence.
After about ten minutes, moisture in the air began to condense into clouds. Soon, rain started falling over a large area, covering the entire village.
And the main focus was the small oasis which was filling fast. This was going to sustain the village for a long time.
"Long live Hero Alex!"
"Long live Hero Alex!"
"Long live Hero Alex!"
The villagers chanted my name loudly. But I was too tired to enjoy it. I had already used the skill six times today, and my body was feeling the strain.
After a while, I spoke briefly with some of the villagers, saying a few words about the blessings of Goddess Angela to make them feel good. Frankly, I wasn't in the best mood because of how exhausted I was.
Both the village chief and the queen noticed my tiredness. The queen didn't want me to seem unfriendly, so she turned to the crowd and spoke warmly.
"Usually the hero is a very kind and energetic person, as you all know. However, creating such a miracle requires a tremendous amount of strength. This is already the sixth time today that Hero Alex has used his skill. It is very tiring and burdensome on the body. If he were not blessed by Goddess Angela herself, a normal person would need at least a year to perform such a miracle."
The villagers seemed to understand the difficulty of what I was doing. They looked at me with even deeper respect, as if I were sacrificing something huge for their sake.
Then the village chief knelt down on both knees. The rest of the villagers quickly followed, bowing their heads and clapping their hands in gratitude.
"Thank you, Hero Alex, for giving us the miracle of rain and saving our lives. We will never forget your sacrifice."
'What the fuck is this about sacrifice? It's just stamina, not my life energy. I'm tired because I've been doing this non-stop for a whole week.'
I wanted to shout the truth, but I didn't want to ruin the mood. Besides, this kind of reverence could be useful for me and the queen in the future.
"Hero Alex, how about you go back to the carriage and rest?" the queen suggested gently. "I'll talk with the villagers for a little longer. Then we can return to the royal palace."
I nodded. "Fine by me. Take your time with your subjects."
After that, I went back inside the carriage to rest. The maid followed me in quietly.
….
….
"So how much time do you think the queen will take to talk to her subjects?"
"Hmm… The queen said it would take at least half an hour. But we might need to rest here for about an hour because the horses are still eating and resting."
"Oh, so how long will it take before we reach the royal palace? I miss my girls. I want some relaxing time and nice orgy."
We had left the royal palace days ago and visited many villages and towns along the way. Since I didn't know the geography of Alabasta well, I had no idea how far we still were.
"It may take a few more hours to reach the royal palace. It will already be nighttime by then, so we might need to stay the night in the desert."
"What? So we're going to spend the night in the open desert?"
"No, Hero Alex. There is an old royal palace on the way. As far as I know, we will rest there tonight."
"Isn't the main royal palace in Alubarna where we stayed before?"
"No, before that there was an even older royal palace. The oasis there dried up, so the capital was moved to a new location about 200 years ago. Since no one lives there now, it is treated as a historical site. Although, it would be better to call it ruin, as no one guards that place. It is only regularly maintained and that too bare minimum."
"Alright then. Go help the driver maid. Make sure the horses are well fed and properly rested. After that, we'll continue our journey."
"Yes, Hero ♥ Kiss ♥"
The maid was already between my legs. She was kissing and licking my dick and balls with pleasure. She was sucking my dick like it was the most delicious thing in the whole world.
She looked like a lowly bitch who had fully embraced her role of my onahole maid while happily serving my dick.
"Haa ♥… I'm sorry, but I'll have to stop here for now… See you later then ♥ Sorry, Mister Dick ♥ I will serve you later…♥"
"Okay, go do your work."
Slap!!
Slap!!
Slap!!
"Haaang ♥ Yes, Hero ♥."
I lightly slapped her face with my dick to encourage her. She smiled happily and left the carriage.
I rested for about half an hour to recover some stamina. After some time, the queen finally returned to the carriage after talking with the villagers.
Knock…! Knock…!
"Please come in~"
"I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."
Moments later, the queen entered and saw me sitting there — without any pants on… with my hard dick, glistening with saliva.
"Gulp…♥"
