Chapter contains explicit Sexual Content

It was a glass and a half of some dark amber drink that tasted like wood (in a good way) before I felt it at all. “Good stuff. Thank you.” I said, staring at it to avoid looking at her. She’d unbuttoned enough of her top that I knew her bra was purple and lacy. She wasn’t kidding about seducing me. Maybe after I calmed down I’d be in the mood to be seduced, but I had more to go through first. Too much on my mind.

She seemed aware of that detail too “So, you were saying you had an idea about your political acumen?”

“Right, so as I was saying, it was just me and poor dead Bernson. But why was some nobody grunt in there with him? I’m not good enough to be a bodyguard, nor was there any sign I was anything but a common soldier. But… well I do have a, lets be kind and call is sensual skill.”

“You could just have had some good sexual experiences.” she countered.

“Yeah well, one of my Advancement options was rather blatantly a ‘you sleep with nobles to gain power and protection’ class. So…” I shrugged.

“Ah, yes that does tell a story, doesn’t it?” She nodded and sipped her own drink. “One that you think implies that you spent enough time around him and his fellow nobles that you picked up on the ‘game’?”

“It’s not too much of a stretch from what I know, even if that’s not much. And on the subject of poor dead Bernson, you called him a leader of the moderates. What’s that mean?”

She grunted “So, coward he was, he wanted the war over so he could go home. This had upsides for us though, he was part of a faction vying for peace. We have our own group, the shield-bearers they’re called. The old guard in that group is a dramatic bunch.” She chuckled “But the problem is both the moderates and shield-bearers have had a run of bad luck lately. Lots of dead to enemy ambushes or traps or assassins. To many to be an unfortunate series of coincidences.”

“Someone wants the war to keep going.” I said, downing my glass. “Someone on one side, maybe someones on both sides, is throwing a wrench into the works for the people trying to end the fighting.”

She nodded slowly “My guess is both sides, likely an alliance across the borders for one reason or another. Pitrak needs to keep fighting or they’ll lose face with the Empire. Uvtrayl has to gain the lands we started the war over or we look like we spent all those lives for nothing. Not hard to imagine some selfish nobles screwing us all over for personal gain.”

I grunted noncommittally. I’d need way more information before I made a call on that level of political fuckery. But it did at least sound painfully plausible. Still, politics was a headache. “Change of subject. Tell me about leveling. I get Attribute points every level, I got Advancement options at eleven but not twelve, what more should I know?”

She seemed taken off balance for a moment. “I’m a terrible teacher, but I’ll try and give you the basics. First off, you should be getting five Attribute points a level. Everyone gets one pick from five Advancement options at eleven, then twenty and thirty and forty and so on.” I nodded understanding. “If you make it to fifty, you gain a tertiary class which, as I understand it there is no rhyme or reason for what it is other than some mixture of your experiences and personality. It can be advanced like the other two as well. Skills are gained in early life by your experiences, but after level ten they are based on your classes. Spells are the same as skills in that regard.” She tapped her chin “Hmm… oh, don’t tell people about your Status details in anything but vague terms.”

[I warned her about that during out travel, but I think you know more than I, as you have the full mortal experience.]

“Ahh, thank you Miss Carmilla. Yes, it’s considered somewhat intimate to share details. Also it can be considered giving away military secrets under certain circumstances if you’re a soldier.” She paused and sipped as she thought again. “Oh right skill ranks increase with use. Some scholars think skills have their own experience pools and level similarly to classes, but that’s an academic argument and doesn’t matter to people in everyday life.”

With that I blinked and pulled up my Status “Oh yeah, that is painful to see. Some of my ‘your life sucks, deal with it’ skills are higher rank than they were when I first when over my Status. That’s… oof.” I sighed and got Helanna to refill my glass.

“I think that’s the basic of the basics, outside of Elemental stuff but I think your own Elemental can cover that with you better than I can.”

[I appreciate the confidence. I have been hesitant to go over more complex details because they rarely matter but I have told her the basics, and the lovely dear even spent far too many points making me more comfortable than she really needed to.]

I felt my cheeks heat again “You saved my life and helped me out a lot, you deserved it. My choice to make anyway.” I mumbled that last part, but I know she heard me.

A moment of silence passed before Carmilla spoke up, wrote up? She communicated.

[Helanna dear, were you not planning on seducing this adorable girl while you still had the privacy of a luxury train cabin to do so in?]

I nearly choked on my drink then noticed movement from Helanna. She was standing and removing her top, tossing it aside before sending her bra to join it. My jaw hung open as I stared at her naked chest.

She blushed ever so slightly “They’re less impressive uncovered I know, but I’m not in my prime anymore. It’s fine, I’ll make up for their sag in other ways.” she spoke as she slowly stepped towards me.

I held up a hand “Okay stop, this is completely unacceptable. You will NOT speak ill of those incredible tits ever again.” She paused in her movement and blushed more before rushing over and kneeling down to kiss me.

Oh thank the fucking gods for how things were going at this particular moment, her lips, her tongue, the fingers of her hands quickly undoing my own top and pulling it open. I felt my body pulse with arousal.

Then I felt Carmilla, her phantom fingers sliding down my spine and across my ass cheeks as Helanna’s head lowered and he took a nipple into her mouth. I gasped and arched my back, pressing my breasts into her face. “Oh fuck yes~!” I gasped out and shivered, my hands fumbling with the lose pants I’d been given, pulling them open and feeling only the slightest discomfort as I pushed them down and only had to kick them from one leg. It didn’t matter, Helanna was also tugging her pants and underwear off and gods I was so damned horny.

She lifted me with a grunt, her arms not just for show, and dropped me onto the bed. “Scoot up.” she commanded and I obeyed, head resting on pillows as she climbed between my legs and I felt her tongue drag across my inner thigh. “Mm, good girl~.” she purred before placing several soft kisses directly on my soaking pussy.

“Oh y-yes~” I squirmed in place, legs spreading wide and my eyes pleading with her to stop teasing. Thank the stars she understood. Her tongue driving between my lips an into my sex was absolutely incredible, the feeling of it wriggling inside me, stroking my inner walls, I was near my climax damned near before I could even get into the rhythm of her movements. “C-close, oh fuck, yes~!”

She shifted up a bit, her lips wrapping around my clit and drawing it from its hood with her tongue as two fingers drove into my core. I was trembling on the edge, trying to last just a bit longer. But I looked down at her, violet eyes piercing my own gaze as her tongue ravaged my pearl. It was too much and I burst.

I bit down on my hand to keep my volume down, I had no idea how well insulated the walls were but I felt like I might just be a screamer and didn’t want to test things right that moment. I cried out against my own skin, hips jerking as I ground my pussy into Helanna’s face. That fantastic woman just rolled with it, her tongue continuing to stroke across me as I came and the world turned into blinding flashes of pleasure.

After a minute or two I managed to come down and regain full awareness of my surroundings, including Helanna grinning down at me. She’d moved up while I was recovering and leaned over me, looking into my eyes with my own nectar dripping from her chin onto my face. Before I could say anything, her lips were on mine and I was tasting myself on her tongue. I moaned and pushed into the kiss harder, sucking her tongue as it invaded my mouth and letting my hands slide down to eagerly grasp handfuls of her soft, warm tits. Fuck they were so big and soft and perfect, fingers teased her nipples and she twitched in response. Oooh, that was good to know~.

I pinched her nipples softly and she let out a sharp gasp into my mouth. “C-careful girl, there’s a line where it stops being fun and starts just hurting.” she panted into my ear.

“I’ll make sure I don’t cross that line. Now how about you reward your good girl and give her something tasty to lick?” I purred, kneading her breasts and biting her ear just hard enough that she could feel my teeth.

She wasted no time and immediately scooted up, placing her legs on either side of my head. I looked up into her lustful eyes and then down at the brown and gray patch of hair between her legs, not quite enough to hide her glistening labia. As she shifted down, pressing herself against my face, I had a sense of familiarity. The feeling of muff tickling my nose was something I knew and enjoyed and urged me to eagerly eat the older woman out. I ran my tongue across one lip, then the other, savoring the taste of her dripping honeypot. As she whimpered above me, begging me to stop teasing, I smiled and kissed her clit. Then I drove my tongue into her, sucking on her lips as I tongue fucked her like my life depended on it.

My fingers joined the pleasure, gathering some of her dripping essence and rubbing her clit with rapid strokes. Her reactions were strong, stronger than I expected. I suddenly didn’t feel so bad about having a sexual skill if it was making Helanna writhe above me like that.

She lasted longer than I did, but my skills clearly pushed her harder than she anticipated because it wasn’t that much longer and she nearly fell off of my face as she peaked. I felt her drench my face without warning, quickly pressing my lips around her sex to drink down her sweetness with a shuddering whimper of my own. Fuck she tasted so good.

After that we enjoyed each other’s bodies more placidly, teasing, laughing, taking warmth just from contact. It was relaxed and comforting and though it took longer, pushed us to a few more climaxes before we grew tired from the exertion.

I lay against her, head on her shoulder and hands lazily stroking her skin as we enjoyed out afterglow. “That was… thank you. I really needed it.” I said softly, kissing her cheek.

“Mmm, you’re not the only one. I hadn’t been with anyone in nearly a decade before today.” she laughed softly then turned to look at me. “Not bad for an old lady, huh?”

I swatted her softly. “No self depreciation. You are both incredibly sexy and very, VERY talented with your tongue.” I said, smirking.

“Well you weren’t exactly slack off down there either, you really do have some skills for this kinda thing, huh? Everything was sharper and more intense than it should have been, not that that is in any way a complaint.” She chuckled and turned to kiss me again. “Sadly, we really do need to both get dressed. I have my own cabin I should be in and I don’t want one of the escorts to get a look at what I got to play with.”

I snorted and bit her lip softly. “I get it, get on out of here and stay out of trouble.”

Once alone and dressed I lay in bed and relaxed, almost missing the System notification waiting for me.
