Chapter 855: Dinner Dates (6)

"And then you chose to open a butchery? That's rather... quaint, I suppose. Definitely worse things to do considering you knew you were good at it."

Gertrude grunted and refilled her mug, while I took a sip of mine and stared wistfully at the barren bones littered in front of , the at long since devoured; I could definitely eat more, but that was just the gluttony speaking and not real hunger, so instead I nursed a mug of beer and enjoyed so conversation instead.

"Like I said, I was an adventurer and took pride in being able to get the best materials from the things I killed. Figured that was sothing I could make money off of, and the rest is history. Problem is... well... It's not an actual 'problem', but having a kid kinda..."

She struggled to find the right words, but I nodded and saved her from searching for the thing to say as I replied "Priorities changed and new needs arouse. Money is paramount now more than ever, and you don't want to disappoint. Mm... This might be

going too far, but..."

Now it was her turn to step in and 'save'

as she gave

a small smile and said "Her Dama left . Simple as that. Thought we had sothing special, but the mont a week of intimacy led to the unsurprising result of

being pregnant she ran. I found her again, offered to give her a second chance... hoped to let her et her daughter, let Eleanor et her Dama, but... she said no and ran away again."

Maybe it was the drinks getting her tongue loosened up, or maybe it was the fact that I was the first person to actually try and talk to her besides her daughter Eleanor, but Gertrude wasn't as silent as she usually appeared.

"Her loss, honestly."

That got her to blink and pause as she stared at , and I shrugged and said "You're downright gorgeous, Gertrude, and apparently quite loyal and devoted. Willing to give a... not so nice person like that a second chance all for your daughter? Her loss."

Maybe I was seeing things, but it looked like her cheeks darkened a little while her eyes glistened, but she got up and took my plate from

before I had the chance to confirm either of those things, clearing the table as she said "Thanks... but I think you've had too much to drink. Take a few minutes, sober up, and head ho before it gets too dark."

It felt like she needed space, and as I watched the muscular woman enter the kitchen and start disposing of the food waste I tapped my fingers on the table and wondered what to do; she asked for space, yes, but maybe now was ti for just a little bit of pressure..?

Not to get into her pants, of course, but to reassure her and comfort her, get into her good graces even more... but she wasn't wrong that I needed to sober up, and if I could watch her do dishes while those sowhat tight pants made her ass look that good, then fuck it I guess I should sober up.

"Oh? Lady Duchess! A pleasure!"

Selkis grinned at

and put down her plate, using her magic to clean off her hands before she extended hers, which I took and allowed her to bring to her lips as she greeted

quite happily; mories of yesterday were spurring her on, most likely...

"Hello again, Miss Selkis. It is just

today... Astra is busy with work. She wanted

to co and see if there was anything else that might have caught her eye though..?"

Her grin widened, and those two rows of fangs shone in the torchlight as she nodded and beckoned for

to enter the tent with her, the Scorpionkin taking her plate inside as she said "A few things that weren't here yesterday, things I was saving just for her! She seems quite interested in the materials of my ho, and that makes

quite happy!"

Inwardly I had to roll my eyes sowhat since I knew what really made her happy was Astra's immaculate pussy, but still, she likely wasn't lying completely about being happy that soone was fascinated by her holand's materials.

They were good materials, and quite rare here since the abundance of Fire Mana was native to her ho and not ours, where Water and Earth were more prevalent; that, and the sands provided unique characteristics that we couldn't get here.

When we were in the tent, alone, I felt my womb throb as I stared at Selkis from behind, wondering why this Scorpionkin was rather charming compared to the other people from the Susahan Desert, who tended to be extrely arrogant and sotis even sexist.

Good looking, well endowed, charming and charismatic... she was quite the futanari, wasn't she?

And apparently rather rich since she had so many goodies to sell in abundance...

"There's all these chests here filled with different kinds of gold, silver, copper and more that might interest her; Susahan Blood Rubies alongside so other gems in that one there, and then so bones and blood vials in this chest here. Feel free to browse."

Sitting down and beginning to eat, Selkis watched as I perused her goods for a little while, her eyes straying occasionally to my breasts and butt as I did so, and that only got

more aroused as I acted like I cared about this different kind of silver then what we had; the slight red sheen was interesting but not sothing I was interested in.

"How much for all three chests?"

My question surprised her, but she quickly composed herself and gave

a number that ant little to , so now that she had eaten a little I turned back to her and asked "Might I be able to receive a discount, Miss Selkis?"

I emphasized that question by dropping my dress to the ground, and she raised a brow and just stared at

in shock before a grin slowly spread across her face as she nodded, understanding what I needed and preparing to give

just that as she stood up and began to undress as well.
