Kaisen''s blood was boiling, but he kept it together, clenching the reins of his horse with a grip so tight, it might as well have been iron.


    With a scowl on his face, he yanked the reins harder, channeling all his frustration and anger into that simple gesture.


    It was like something straight out of a movie or anime, you know?


    The emotional hero, torn between duty and love, his heart heavy as he watches the heroine ride off into the sunset.


    But Kaisen wasn''t about to let that happen.


    Oh no, he was gonna chase after her.


    Because that''s what heroes do, right?


    And not entirely because he wants that Elfussy.


    Just when Kaisen thought he had it all under control, he gave the reins a firm tug, and that''s when all hell broke loose.


    His horse let out a startled neigh, its hooves kicking up dust as it reared up on its hind legs like it had a mind of its own.


    "Whoa...whoa...easy now..."


    Kaisen''s voice was drowned out by the thundering hooves as the horse''s back legs hit the ground and its front legs shot up into the air.


    In that heart-stopping moment, Kaisen knew he was about to take a tumble.


    ''Fuck me! Me no need any Elfussy.''


    "No, no, no! Easy there, buddy. No need to rush."


    Kaisen eximed, his voice strained with panic as he tried to calm the horse down.


    "Let''s take it slow, okay? Your pace, not mine."


    And just like that, as if it had heard his plea, the horse settled down, its wild energy fading like a passing storm.


    Kaisen let out a shaky breath of relief, thanking the heavens that he hadn''t been thrown to the ground.


    ''No more heroism. I will stick with being a pervert.''


    "Steady now, Kaisen."


    Maximus said,ing forward to lend a hand.


    He could hear snickers echoing behind him, but Kaisen kept his gaze forward, jaw clenched tight.


    He could practically feel the eyes of hispanions boring into him, waiting for him to crack, to give them the satisfaction of seeing him flustered.


    He knew exactly what they were thinking—probably something along the lines of ''look at that idiot, can''t even handle his own horse''.


    Turning back would only validate their amusement, confirm that they''d gotten under his skin.


    He was better than that, stronger than their taunts. So he squared his shoulders and rode on.


    ''Fucking bastards. I will make you beg for your life.''


    "Are you okay, Kaisen-kun?"


    Alice''s voice,ced with concern, cut through the tension as she rode up beside him.


    "Yes, Alice-san, I''m fine. Just my horse being a bit jumpy."


    Kaisen reassured her with a smile, though his eyes flickered briefly to her chest before meeting her gaze.


    Alice caught his nce and shot him a look that said, "Really? Now?"


    She fought to suppress a smile, but the corners of her lips betrayed her, twitching upward despite her efforts.


    ...


    "We''re entering the forest!"


    Maximus''s voice rang out, cutting through the air as the grasnd faded into the dense foliage ahead.


    The riders reined in their steeds,ing to a halt at the forest''s edge.


    For a moment, they all looked back, casting one final nce at the open ins they were leaving behind.


    Even though Sable had darted ahead for a bit, she eventually circled back to join the group.


    She admitted that being alone wasn''t all that fun, even though she was clearly still steamed at Maximus for who knows what reasons.


    Kaisen didn''t get it, but he was just relieved she was back with them.


    After all, his cock was already missing the sight of her and her tits bouncing around.


    So hering back was definitely a relief.


    ''He, he, he.''


    To spice things up even more, Kaisen was secretly wishing for the rain to pour down.


    ''Rain, rain,e again, little Kaisen wants to y.''


    Why?


    Well, just imagine the sight of a drenched Sable, her white shirt clinging to every curve, turning transparent and leaving little to the imagination.


    It would be like a dreame true for any red-blooded man.


    Kaisen was salivating just imagining it.


    "So we''re leaving it all behind, huh?"


    Sable remarked, her eyes drifting to the small settlement in the distance, Hero Square.


    It was a sight familiar to Alice, Lloyd, and Kaisen, a reminder of where their journey had begun.


    But little did they know, this scene was just as familiar to Alwyn.


    After all, it was here in the outskirts of the forest that he firstid eyes on Alice.


    The memory reyed in his mind, igniting a fire of desire that made his mouth water.


    ''That little turd of a human, Kaisen, is stirring up trouble. If things go his way, something''s bound to happen on this journey.''


    He nced sideways at the other human, aplete idiot in his eyes.


    The supposed boyfriend of a smoking hot woman who had no clue that his so-called best friend was trying his damnedest to get into his girlfriend''s pants.


    And to make matters worse, she was actually ying along, returning the feelings right under his oblivious nose.


    It was enough to make Alwyn''s blood boil with jealousy and frustration.


    ''Stupid cuck.''


    The guy in question shot him a sideways grin, looking about as innocent as a newborn babe.


    Alwyn forced a smile in return before quickly turning his attention back to the scenery.


    ''I''ve told Elfie to work her charms on the guy so I can slide into Alice''s sweet pussy. And damn, it''s going smoother than a well-oiled machine.''


    Alwyn thought to himself, a dark grin twisting his lips.


    ''Especially since the only thing that slut''s good for is spreading her legs wide, thanks to all that intense training she''s been getting.''


    He shook his head in disappointment, cursing himself for being so damn impotent.


    He should''ve picked someone else from his stable of ves to have a little fun with.


    But no, he had to go and pick Elfie, just to test out if her archery skills could be put to use in the game.


    And damn, did it pay off.


    The next thing he knew, it was like he was living in some ultra-realistic video game, with graphics so lifelike it made his head spin.


    ''Fuck! I should''ve made my mother y the game.''
