57- I’m So Close!
57- I’m So Close!
In the immediate, I got a new Achievement.
The reward of an extra Free Token was an incredible gift. Having a cache of Tokens I could spend at any time on any action was a huge boon none of the others shared, so far as I knew. Tara had confessed to only having 1 Free Token. Of course, it took a near death experience for me to get the reward…
It was important for me to go over my gains after the—ahem—party that saw me having sex with something like a dozen female Marshins, followed by Regina. I would have been sore and had difficulty walking for maybe a full day after so much repetitive boning, but this was a magic world and my body was enhanced by my levels.
To my family, I simply told them there’d been a celebration of our curing the eggs, and I gained levels. It wasn’t a lie, exactly, just an omission of events no one wants to explain to their mother. How many people have ever discussed orgies with their parents? I’m going to go with practically zero, throughout the entire history of people.
And speaking of which… not that I would ever tell my family, but I’d just leveled up three times in my second class, Pleasure Seeker.
I was still 11 levels away from ranking up from Initiate to whatever came next. It would be Apprentice in Healer, but I didn’t know about Pleasure Seeker. Maybe Sexpert.
I chuckled.
The trainers back at HQ, Rus, Abbie and Rainer, had all explained things changed at level 25, and changed again after level 100. I was trying not to get too ahead of myself, but when you leveled up three times after one wild sex party, you start to look forward.
I also knew that, after level 12, I could officially bond a Nakamamon. This caused a surge of excitement to well up within me. Yes!
What would I pick? Something fiery, so I could work on my cures without needing to borrow Lanelle’s Magmamander? Something that could fly like Tara’s Slitherwind so I could travel quickly to the places I was needed? Something adorable and cuddly like Tweedle Dee? Something with healing powers, the way Cinzy’s fairy matched and enhanced her Bard powers? Or the way Drat’s companion helped him stay even stealthier than he otherwise would be able to? The way Trent’s gem thing helped him scout beneath the earth and extended his earth magic capabilities? Something completely different, like the gigantic pack beast Muppin? The possibilities were literally endless.
I had to shelve it for now and concentrate on how I would progress.
Each level up brought with it specific bonuses, like in the most popular tabletop RPG in history. Sometimes I got to spend them how I liked, and other times I was just assigned a specific ability.
Level 12: +2 skill points
Level 13: +1 Durability
Level 14: Ability Upgrade: Blissense
Just like that, I’d blown past my Healer level. In one sense it was gratifying, because getting upgrades after having sex was absolutely incredible. In another way it was a little disappointing that I was doing more philandering than healing. But I wasn’t about to look a gift horse in the mouth. I would saddle that baby up and ride it, because I was becoming an expert at riding.
I could be down with upgraded Blissense.
Okay… I was initially disappointed with this. The first one had only really been usable in two instances. It was great if I wanted to get a deeper look into the mind of a partner I already had, like Regina. I could therefore understand that she was open to basically any and everything, didn’t want to have a long-term exclusive relationship with me, and was only really looking to shack up in order to have her world rocked from time to time. She didn’t want to marry, not at the age she was, but she did want to explore and have a lot of orgasms.
The second tier ability seemed, on the surface, like an invasion of privacy. I couldn’t see using it… until I considered the note afterwards. This actually could be a really useful ability. I hoped I wouldn’t need it.
The other bonuses I’d gotten were great. I wanted more skill points, because everyone wants more skill points all the time forever. I had been pretty liberal in spending them on the Qualities from my new class, because they transformed my body into sex god status. I didn’t regret this, but I always wished there were more skill points to be had.
Unfortunately I just wasn’t going to get the skill points flowing in like candy, like I wanted. Well, you can’t always get what you want. Another life lesson my father had given me that proved out time and again.
Now, I had also leveled up as a Healer, by producing and then administering the cure to the ailing Marshin eggs. Those little cuties were going to hatch today or tomorrow, and I swelled with pride knowing I’d done my best to get them healed up, and fast.

“Back to the pants,” I told my family in the real world.
They were, obviously, a part of the god we were hunting. Or the god’s pants anyway. I didn’t know if the god had melted there and left the pants behind, or it had shrugged off all its clothing and this was one of several pieces. As I stared at them, one thing was clear: they were divine, and if anyone touched them, they’d die a rather quick and painful death.
Not good.
I’d have to run a diagnosis. Without any Tokens to speak of.
Actually…
I understood that Tokens came back with time and meditation. I was terrible at it. But there were other ways…
***
When I returned to the village on the boat with my new bonded Nakamamon, I realized some important conversations needed to take place.
“Vellenia,” I said cautiously. This time it was my turn to pole the boat. She sat directly beside me and clutched onto my leg, sliding her hand up and down the inside of my thigh.
“Hmm?”
“You do know that I have, eh, mated with some other women, right? In the ongoing sense.”
“Of course.”
“Oh… does that bother you?”
“Why would it? You will need human companions to mate with, since we aren’t compatible.”
That… was a surprisingly pragmatic take on things. And good information to have, us not being able to produce offspring. I was so glad thus far to be surrounded by women who weren’t jealous monsters. Hopefully they wouldn’t be jealous of monsters, or more specifically the monster I’d just bonded. I certainly was glad they chose me over Alan, Drat or Trent, or just existing and being single. In the same way, I was really lucky they didn’t quarrel over possession of me. This was no different.
Tweedle Dee was sitting curled up in a ball on Regina’s bed, shivering and beginning to look faded out. He was surrounded by the team, peering hopefuly at him, and then at me. Another dose of Healer’s Breath got him looking better again, and Regina cooed and stroked him the moment he opened his eyes.
“This is Vellenia,” I told them, “in case you hadn’t met her before. She is not my bonded Nakamamon!”
A lot of staring happened then, though Chrysta and Larelle, Alan and Trent were quick to offer congratulations. Regina, Cinzy, Ivy and Isabelle also did, after a period of awkward staring with mouths hanging open. Fairy Poppins, in a move surprising everyone, flitted up off Cinzy’s shoulder and zipped out the door.
“We discovered a pair of pantaloons,” I said, and soon led them outside to where the pants had joined the tunic. I gestured grandly.
The pants had the same golden glow coming off them, though the tunic was summer green beneath, and the pants more of a rusty tree trunk hue.
They were definitely divine and a hundred percent off limits to everyone except myself. They were to be guarded at all times, and Cinzy was soon off with Vellenia to let the natives know these were here, and not to touch them. Regina declined to stay in bed with Tweedle Dee, and instead chose to range out around the village, where Trent would help her by looking inside the earth if necessary. Together, they would
“Oooh,” she moaned. “I needed this.”
I couldn’t disagree with that. It seemed like ever since I’d started down this path with Regina, my cock had been drawing me back toward sex over and over. Any day I didn’t have it was a bad day. Any day I did have it was acceptable, and any day I had it more than once was perfection.
Ivy rode up and down, and I watched in fascination while the tattoos writhed over her body and my shaft appeared and disappeared into her. The flex and relax motion of her thighs and the six pack abs was hypnotic.
We ended up having sex for several hours. Ivy beckoned Izzy to join her, and the two continued kissing while Ivy got her fill. Switching positions allowed me to pound Ivy from behind while she nestled in between Isabelle’s legs and ate her out. Isabelle still seemed unsettled, and wouldn’t make eye contact with me, but it wasn’t an issue. She still spread her legs for me and accepted me inside her while Ivy rode her face. Having sex with a girl while her girlfriend slowly ground her pussy into her face was something I never thought I would personally witness.
I ended up blasting off all up Ivy’s stomach and boobs a good half hour later, with Isabelle laying dazed.
“That’s a lot,” she marveled.
I just grinned down at her. “Thanks.” Part of me wanted to watch her lick and swallow it. Whether Ivy could read my mind or not was up for debate, but she grabbed onto my ass and slid down so she could get the head in her mouth, and suck the lat drops off of it.
Her eyes widened in surprise.
This is Christopher wondering for the very first time what his jizz tastes like.
