Village Head's Debauchery

"Here, I want to give you this," Orion said, extending the sack containing the two Devourer's bracelets to Saraphina.

The other women gathered around Orion, and Saraphina cast curious and sceptical glances at the sack.

Saraphina accepted the sack from Orion, her expression filled with doubt. "What's inside?" she asked, her voice tinged with suspicion.

"Open it and see for yourself," Orion replied.

With a furrowed brow, Saraphina nodded and untied the sack, prompting keen interest from the other women.

As she revealed the Devourer's bracelet, a puzzled expression appeared on Saraphina's face. She turned back to Orion. "What is this?" she asked, her frown deepening.

"That is the Devourer's bracelet you asked for yesterday. I made sure to get it for you as soon as possible," Orion responded with a warm smile.

He might have obtained the Devourer's bracelet by chance, but that didn't change the fact that Seraphina had asked for it earlier. Giving her the Devourer's bracelets now would further prove his love for her, and that was something Orion always prioritized with all his women.

Of course, it was challenging, but it was a task he willingly accepted.

Upon hearing Orion's words, Seraphina's and Greta's eyes brightened. Saraphina immediately appeared before Orion and hugged him tightly, wrapping her legs around him as well.

Greta exhaled in happiness, impressed that Orion had gotten his hands on a Devourer's bracelet a few days after Seraphina had asked for it.

However, the rest of the women, who had no idea what was happening, couldn't help but sigh in confusion. They were puzzled by Seraphina's joyful reaction to receiving the bracelet and unsure how to react to the unfolding scene before them.

The jealousy in Ursa, Ingrid, and several others dissipated as they realized that this was likely something personal between Orion and Seraphina.

"Thank you! Thank you!!" Seraphina exclaimed joyfully.

She sealed her lips with Orion's, giving him a deep, wet kiss before pulling back slightly. A string of saliva connected their lips momentarily, and Seraphina quickly wiped it away with her lips before returning to her feet.

"Alright, now tell me, how did you manage to get it so quickly?" Seraphina's expression shifted drastically as she focused her gaze on Orion.

She understood the value of the Devourer's bracelet from the moment she heard about it and its functions. She knew there was no way the Four-eared elves would willingly hand it over without something equally valuable in return and a valid reason. These were her speculations, and there was still a high chance that negotiations would fail. Therefore, she was worried about what Orion might have done or offered to obtain the Devourer's bracelet for her.

"Well, after I mentioned that my beloved partner was interested and wanted to experiment with it for a while, they instantly handed it over to me," Orion cleared his throat and responded with a smile.

Seraphina snorted at Orion's words. She got the hint from Orion's tone and couldn't help but inwardly sigh in relief that Orion hadn't resorted to anything outrageous to obtain the Devourer's bracelet. "Thank you," Seraphina responded.

"You're welcome. Just be careful when experimenting with them; I don't want anything bad happening to you," Orion cautioned.

Seraphina couldn't help but ask, "Them?"

Orion nodded, "Check it; there's still another one in there," he responded, pointing at the sack.

Seraphina's eyes widened in response to Orion's words. Immediately, she rechecked the sack, dumbfounded to find another Devourer's bracelet she hadn't noticed earlier due to her excitement.

Seraphina raised her head and looked at Orion briefly before shaking her head tiredly in defeat. "You are really something," she said.

"I know," Orion responded, "Don't worry about returning them, though; the Four-eared elves permanently gave them to us, so you can experiment with them as you wish," he added.

Seraphina was dumbfounded once again as she focused on Orion. Her thoughts raced as she contemplated how Orion could have permanently acquired only one but two Devourer's bracelets.

Though she trusted Orion's words, she found it hard to believe how he had accomplished all this in such a short amount of time.

"You know, you're utterly unbelievable sometimes," Seraphina said, sighing in defeat.

"Again, I know. Be careful when you're experimenting in the workshop. I need to be somewhere now," Orion responded. He leaned in and kissed her quickly before turning around to do the same for the women nearby.

After bidding them all goodbye, Orion exited the house with Crystalia and immediately headed towards the Third Border City.

…....…..

Third Border City

Palace manor

Queen Selene sat upon a throne crafted from beautiful crystals, adorned with various colourful gems, her expression impassive as she regarded Elara and a few other clan leaders and family heads standing before her.

"So, the Four-eared elves were indeed mentioned in the 'Ancient Codex' and participated in the 'Great War," Selene stated.

Elara nodded in confirmation. "Not only that, according to the 'Ancient Codex,' they had close ties with the Dream Elves, Nightwalker Elves, and Dawn Elves. Together, they formed a formidable alliance, which enabled them to survive the 'Great War' and secure a stellar gate to enter this world," Elara explained.

"I see," Selene replied, nodding in understanding.

Just as she was about to speak further, the hall's door swung open, and a guard entered, immediately bowing before her.

"What is it?" Selene asked with a frown as she observed the guards.

Their interruption of such an important meeting suggested something serious had occurred, prompting her immediate curiosity.

"Your Highness, Warrior Orion and Princess Crystalia are in the castle, waiting to see you," the guard announced.

Selene sighed in relief upon hearing the guard's words. "Escort them in," she replied.

Although she could already guess the reason for their visit, she was curious about why they were both visiting her simultaneously, especially this early morning.

The guard nodded in response and immediately exited the throne room.

"You all can leave and focus on gathering more information about them; we'll continue this another time," Selene ordered, her voice directed at Elara and the others.

They all nodded and proceeded to exit the throne hall one by one.
