Chapter 384: Blackmailing others
"This is your room?" Eli inquired, his eyes sweeping across the unique house constructed solely from the surrounding trees.
"Y-Yes, H-How is it?" Alysia responded, her voice tinged with a mix of nervousness and curiosity, her fingers fidgeting as she stole glances at Eli.
"Wonderful..." Eli's lips curled into a warm smile, accompanied by a playful wink aimed at Alysia. "...just like the owner of the house."
Alysia's long ears, resembling delicate wings, fluttered gracefully like butterflies in the breeze.
Soon after, they settled themselves at the sturdy wooden table, their expressions turning serious as they delved into the heart of their conversation.
"So, once the land is fully nourished and I eradicate the worms, we can begin sowing the seeds we've wanted for," Eli elaborated, his finger tracing the intricate details on the Map of the Flora continent.
"Here... Here, and Here," Eli pinpointed three strategic locations on the continent's outskirts. "Firstly, we must garner support from the other Elders. To achieve this, let's have the two elders cultivate the plants and distribute them to the others. Once they recognize the immense value of these seeds, they will undoubtedly seek a share of the bounty.
That's when we formalize the contract and tap into their resources, mirroring our successful approach with the initial two elders."
"Hmmm... Do you believe they would go to such lengths for mere seeds?" Scarlett queried, her skepticism evident in her tone.
"Big sist--"
"Ahem"
"My beloved wife," Eli corrected with a tender smile, "In this vast world, who cherishes and venerates plants more than any other beings?" His gaze shifted towards Alysia, a silent acknowledgement of her deep connection with nature.
"Of course, it's the Elves, Dryads, and Fairies," Scylla chimed in, offering her perspective alongside Scarlett's inquiry.
"So, if others witness an Elf successfully nurturing plants and trees far better than others, how do you think they'll react?" Eli's curiosity sparked the conversation.
"Ah, I see your point now...." Scarlett nodded in comprehension, but then raised a valid concern, "But this approach might not resonate well in the Dawn Kingdom."
"That's where our journey begins. Initially, we'll cultivate fruits and vegetables here and then distribute them to other continents, focusing our sales on Nobles and high-ranking officials," Eli explained his strategic vision.
"Why not target the common folk? Won't that expand our market?" Scylla questioned, she couldn't understand why because for her only way to be famous... only by the use of local people.
Before Eli could respond, Alysia interjected with a serious expression, "If we do that, we risk causing inflation and displacing local vendors, which could stir unrest and backlash against the Kingdom."
"Exactly," Scarlett concurred, adding, "So, our focus initially will be on securing the support of nobles and influential figures, then using the pawns we secured in the Dawn Kingdom to expand our business there." A mischievous grin spread across her face as she glanced at Eli.
"But are you confident that your genetically modified seeds will outperform others?" Alysia inquired, as much as she wanted to believe Eli yet seeing the elaborate plan Alysia couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I'm quite certain. Even if it doesn't pan out as expected, we have little to lose," Eli replied confidently, a hint of pride in his expression.
"Well..." Alysia hesitated, unsure of how to respond to Eli's assurance.
"Hehe..." Both Scylla and Scarlett chuckled knowingly, recognizing the calculated risk they were taking.
They were just blackmailing others to use their plan so even if somehow lost they had nothing to worry about.
"We'll arrange rooms for you to rest," Alysia announced as she began preparing accommodations for their guests.
Later, Eli and the others found themselves in their respective rooms, ready to rest before the upcoming endeavours.
"Take your rest, everyone. I have a meeting scheduled today, so I'll be a bit delayed," Alysia informed them before leaving the house to attend to her commitments.
After Alysia left, the trio exchanged a knowing look before silently agreeing to enter Eli's room together.
With excitement in their eyes, they jumped onto the bed, their laughter echoing in the room as they embraced each other tightly.
"~Hmm~"
"~Hmm~"
Eli initiated the intimate moment by kissing Scarlett deeply, their tongues entwining in a passionate dance. Each kiss was filled with eagerness as they savoured each other's essence.
"Me~" Scylla's voice was filled with longing as she licked Eli's neck, her eyes pleading for his attention.... like an abandoned puppy.
"~Hmm~"
Breaking the kiss with Scarlett, Eli turned to Scylla and kissed her lips with equal fervour, his hunger evident in the way he explored her mouth. Scarlett, watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but giggle at Scylla's breathless state, her cheeks flushing with a mix of arousal and embarrassment.
As Scarlett began to remove Eli's clothing, her lips found their way to his neck, leaving passionate kisses along his skin.
"~chu~"
"~chu~"
Her hands trailed over Eli's body, caressing his skin and exploring every inch with desire. She focused on his neck and nipples, eliciting moans of pleasure from Eli as his muscles tensed under her touch.
"~MM~"
Scylla's moan of pleasure filled the air as Eli reciprocated, his hands finding their way to her breasts. The intensity of his touch made her face flush even more, her eyes darting to Scarlett to see whether she heard her shameful moan or not..... only to find Scarlett playfully winking back at her.
"Heheh..." Scarlett's giggle was mischievous. Scylla couldn't help but hide her blushing face, a mixture of pleasure and bashfulness painting her features.
"S-She..." Scylla's voice faltered as she stopped kissing, her accusatory gaze landing on Scarlett, pointing at her with trembling fingers.
Eli's smile widened as he gently pushed Scarlett back onto the bed, his lips trailing along her neck as he skillfully removed her remaining dress, exposing her to his hungry gaze.
"G-Gentle~" Scarlett's voice wavered as she tried to maintain some semblance of composure, her breath hitching with each touch.
"OH!" Scylla's eyes widened in surprise as she caught sight of Scarlett's seductive lingerie, the lacy fabric accentuating her curves in alluring ways.
Scarlett, feeling a mix of arousal and embarrassment, glanced at Eli with a questioning look, "S-She?"
Eli shook his head in response, an amusement etched on his face when he saw their shyness. He then turned his attention to Scylla, his gaze becoming more focused and commanding.
"!!!" Scylla flinched at Eli's stern look, briefly considering making a run for it. However, before she could act on her impulse,
'Slap'
"HIKK!"
Eli's sudden slap on her busty ass sent a jolt of mixed pleasure and surprise through Scylla's body, her skin tingling from the impact.
In one swift motion, Eli tore off Scylla's maid dress, leaving her clad only in a beautiful pair of white bra and panties, her complexion flushed with embarrassment and arousal.
"So pure~" Scarlett teased playfully, enjoying Scylla's reaction as her cheeks deepened in color.
Eli, now fully immersed in the erotic tension between the three of them, shed his own remaining clothing, revealing his proud and vigorous sword to their eager eyes.
"OH!! It's bigger than ever!!" Both Scarlett and Scylla exclaimed simultaneously, their eyes widening in awe at the sight before them.
"It's only going to get bigger... My little kittens," Eli's smirk held a promise of more to come as he pulled them closer, the air around them charged with anticipation and desire.
'Drip, Drip'
'Drip, Drip'
The sound of their sweat-slicked skin trembling with excitement echoed in the room, a prelude to the intense passion that was about to unfold between them.
