Zell's body began to spasm as he leaned against the thick brown trunk, his black-scaled flesh and demonic features fading slightly; his missing arm began to regenerate with a sickening crunch and bubbling sound rapidly, the scent of iron and blood filling the area.
"Are you okay?" Edelgards's soft voice sounded, her plump rear sitting on a tree stub, her bushy white tail swaying as she watched Zell's arm regenerate like a walking snack machine with unlimited uses.
'I wonder if it tastes different?' She thought, her emerald eyes sparkling at the interesting man that saved her. This "knight" of her's seemed more like the demons in the nightmares and stories her mother used to speak about.
'He's handsome, though... Let's allow his weird quirks.' Her mind told her before she smiled widely up towards him. The knight didn't seem bothered by their company either way, so why not? They were all stuck here for now, after all. Was it better than being alone or fighting each other, right? 'Besides, I can always eat his arms if they grow back!'
A wicked grin spread across her face as she stood from the stump and offered her hand to help him.
Although she aimed to look wicked, instead, she looked like a cute girl trying to act naughty, which caused Zell's face to twitch; this girl just ate his arm with such a joyful face and almost sounded like she was enduring multiple climaxes, now was giving him this weird ass smile and offering her arm.
"What? Does that mean I can eat your arm too?"
Zell was feeling playful, surviving that damn chase, waiting for his rewards, and so pulled the cute wolf towards him; already quite certain she was related to Griselda, so he didn't need to worry if anything went wrong, he just left it to his noble wolf to fix.
He still couldn't contact the others and was feeling a bit of withdrawal; it was strange that not even Yanfra could contact him; she normally knew much more than everyone else and left her little ways to contact him.
"Ah!?"
Edelgard was caught off guard, her light body pulled into the air as she flung into his chest with a thud, almost knocking him down. Zell seemed weak as he stumbled, grasping around her back for support as they leaned on the brown trunk.
"Ow... Why did you do that? Stupid... I bit my tongue..."
'This girl is a bit of a klutz... she's fun to tease!'
She stuck her tongue out as if you show him the bite marks from her teeth; suddenly, she felt a strange taste as his hand shot out, trapping her tongue between his fingers and pulling on it gently, causing her head to tilt back, gasping softly, her lips parting open, her green eyes staring wide in shock as if asking what happened. He held onto her tongue tightly while grinning mischievously.
Her emerald orbs stared into his crimson ones as she tried desperately to pull away but only made herself dizzy. She gasped again, looking shocked and embarrassed when he finally released her.
'Why did he do that!? it felt so strange; what an idiot!' She scolded him, rubbing her tongue awkwardly and blushing brightly.
"So, what was your plan from here?" Zell asked Edelgard, his back leaning against the tree as he began to move his regrown arm, thrusting, swiping and jabbing into the air with a decent speed. Honestly, it felt strange and didn't feel like "his" arm, but slowly it became a little more familiar as he looked at the little Lycan, who was pouting at him with her tongue pulled out, this time from a safe distance.
'I think she has to be the younger sister, right? A little less adult than Griselda, her ass is bigger and meatier though, probably not a melee type fighter.'
His thoughts continued as he grinned at the girl, wondering how far she would go if provoked enough. She was pretty cute, no doubt, and had some nice curves. But then again, there wasn't any reason to provoke her. Not yet, anyway.
The two walked together through the forest, talking casually and laughing occasionally; it was hard to tell where exactly they were because the trees grew tall and close, blocking most of the sky.
However, Edelgard seemed to know this place like her back garden as she sniffed the air and began to guide Zell around, teaching him where the white bears lived or what food the hulking squirrels enjoyed eating, before they came to a small clearing filled with a wide patch of grass and fields; there were no buildings but some strange rocks with symbols carved inside.
Edelgard was prancing forwards, a little angry at Zell because he asked if he could eat the squirrels; although a carnivore, the Silvan wolves didn't eat the squirrels as they held a strange symbiotic relationship; when there was major danger, the squirrels would act as early alarms of sorts, thus for generations the Silvan wolves would not needlessly eat or kill the squirrels, rather protecting them from other predators or people.
"Hmph... Alvin is a good squirrel... want's to eat him! Stupid...."
Her little feet continued to kick the stones in the fields, sometimes looking back at him with a strange pout and cute angry look. Frankly, Zell didn't mind her attitude from running for his life earlier, being mauled and almost eaten; this moment of relaxation was soothing his tired soul.
"Then if I get angry, can I eat you?" Zell asked, his body vanishing before appearing to face Edelgard, causing her to stumble into his chest, pressing against his hard muscles as the air left her lungs.
'E-eat me!? I am not tasty!'
Edelgard began to bare her fangs, growling at him as if she feared he might eat her, the thick bushy tail puffing out as she began to slam it against the ground; the moment she tried to push herself away.
Zell decided to play a nasty trick on this slightly sheltered girl, moving his head close to Edelgard, catching her off guard as his lips pressed against hers, those cute green eyes growing into huge circles as she looked confused at his action, dropping her arms ready to scratch him almost instantly.
"Nnngggghhhhh!"
It took a second for her to realise what he'd done, biting her lower lip lightly and making sure to leave a mark. It wouldn't hurt for long, but it would surely annoy her until someone helped her remove it.
"Uuuuughhh..." She grunted, glaring daggers at Zell as he smirked and rubbed his nose against hers, tasting her sweet scent, her body trembling slightly under his touch. His hands moved over her sides and thighs, pushing aside her fluffy white fur as he slid one hand underneath her shirt to rub along her stomach.
Edelgard was stunned, suddenly feeling a slight pain in her lips before his tongue entered her mouth, teasing her's, 'was this the eating he meant!?' as the gears in her mind slowly began to tick, her face turning deep red as she realised her misunderstanding.
Zell didn't care, kissing her passionately, exploring her soft pink lips and enjoying her warm breath, his tongue dancing with hers. Edelgard was startled and stiffened for a second and was quickly taken into his pace.
'This bad knight!? Only a husband can kiss a woman!' Edelgard protested before a delight tingled through her tongue, causing her resistance to fade.
The new feelings and sensations his kiss caused her to feel clouding her actions momentarily, allowing him to slide his other hand further up her thigh, finding her smooth skin beneath her pants, touching her through the cloth.
They both broke apart for air, breathing heavily and Zell smiling as her cheeks turned bright red.
"You're really cute when you blush." He said quietly, watching as her ears flattened, her eyes wide, and her expression bashful.
"Y-you are also very bad... let go of my-"
Before she could finish, he grabbed her by the waist and spun her around, pinning her to a rock with his hips, holding her firmly.
"No, arguing," Zell whispered huskily into her ear, nibbling on its furry lobe, lifting his hand high into the air before slamming down with a slight whistling of the wind, slapping her ass with a loud smack, her plump ass wobbling from the impact as she let out an adorable howl from her lips, which caused the surroundings to become unsettled, as the open clearing, suddenly didn't feel like a simple clearing anymore.
Like countless eyes were watching Zell from every direction, and judging by the sudden silence that fell upon the area, the animals were listening too.
"...ahh!"
Edelgard yelped loudly, jumping away from his grip and landing on the ground, panting heavily as she glared at him angrily, her face flushed redder than ever.
Zell chuckled, rising from his crouching position and placing himself behind her again, his hands sliding up her thighs, gripping her tight butt cheek.
"Well, well, looks like we have a problem."
Edelgard growled lowly, standing straight and putting her fists on her hips.
"Don't try to make me mad, human. If I wanted to, you'd never survive."
Zell shrugged. "That depends on how many squirrels are hiding in these bushes. I'm hungry, and I bet they taste amazing."
"Y-you! don't eat my squirrels!" Edelgard shouted as her hand pointed towards Zell, shaking with rage, and confusion from the sensation of his lips, the taste of his tongue and the feel of that kiss.
"Oh? Oh? My cute little Edelgard looks so cute when she's embarrassed! Look, her tail is so cute. How it shows all her feelings at once!"
Dread...
That's all Zell felt now; a hand was on his shoulder...
A hand with claws that were now over several inches inside his flesh, only the sheer force of the person's aura stopping his blood from pouring and him letting out a grunt of pain.
"Mommy!! Tell him he is a bad guy... he...."
"Oh my? What did he do? You can tell me, baby, ~ I'll make the bad buy go away, see?"
Zell's knee smashed into the floor; suddenly, the huge clearing was visible to his eyes, no longer empty but filled with several small wooden huts and homes, with dozens of silver-furred Lycans all watching the scene with curious eyes.
'Ah, shit... I dun fucked up...'
"N--no... Mother... don't! He's not bad, but don't hurt him anyway!" Edelgard desperately tried to reason with her mother, the most powerful warrior of the tribe, unlike
'Mother? So is this the mother that fought against the demons but still lost in the end... I wonder how much she remembers that event...'
The fact that many of these people were the same as him, but their worlds were already destroyed was rather strange for him, he wondered if they were all reincarnated after it was destroyed, but that didn't make sense as Yanfra said that reincarnation was far too powerful a magic for even the divines to play with easily.
'Is it an imperfect reincarnation? It's interesting.' I need to speak more with Veronica and Yanfra when I have time...
Zell could feel the claws in his shoulder digging in further, despite Edelgard speaking for him; how could he explain spanking her ass and feeling her up, especially when they all saw the action...
'A bad male has tainted my cute Edelgard... I have to get rid of him before she becomes like my other daughter and then leaves without sending me any mail or messages!'

"...."
'You're joking, right?'
Zell didn't know how to face this situation before turning to the tall, silver-haired woman with deep scars all over her body and a tight eight-pack more defined than his.
"Well... Nice to meet you, mother-in-law!"
A moment later, Zell became a shooting star.
