The next day, a momentous event unfolded as the entire village gathered to bestow upon Arthur the esteemed title of village head, a rightful honor earned through his triumphant victory over Asorth.
Underneath the gentle caress of the sun's warm rays, the village's women, all 28 of them, came forward, their faces adorned with anticipation, their dresses a vibrant tapestry of colors.
As Arthur stood at the heart of the river, the shimmering waters reflecting his newfound stature, the surrounding forest cradled them in a lush embrace.
Towering trees, their leaves swaying in rhythm with the whispers of the wind, cast dappled shadows upon the ceremony.
Luna, with her eyes aglow with pride and admiration, stood beside Arthur, a symbol of support. She radiated a quiet strength that resonated throughout the gathering.
Yuki, the village's healer, a figure of wisdom and grace, took her place by their side, her presence offering a sense of harmony and balance to the proceedings.
They were dressed in a white see through fabric, and since they were in the river, their clothes were wet which only made it more erotic as their pink nipples could be seen through the clothes.
In stark contrast to the vibrant scene surrounding him, Arthur knelt humbly in the center of the river, clad in nothing but a simple white fabric wrapped around his waist.
His posture was one of reverence, his knee touching the cool, watery ground. He watched with solemn anticipation as the ceremony unfolded.
Amidst the picturesque backdrop of the river, the forest's emerald embrace, and the village's expectant gazes, Luna, with a gentle smile gracing her lips, positioned herself before Arthur.
Her eyes, closed in deep concentration, spoke of ancient traditions and the weight of the moment. In her delicate hands, she held a necklace of intricate design, fashioned from materials passed down through generations.
As Luna raised the necklace above Arthur's head, it caught the sunlight, casting prismatic hues across his form.
The necklace itself seemed to come alive, as if recognizing the significance of this ceremony. Its beads and charms danced in the air, each one telling a story of the village's history and Arthur's journey.
Her crotch was so close to his face, he could have sworn he could smell her erotic scent from beneath the fabric she had on.
He sighed, trying to dismiss any indecent thought he could potentially have for his mother, but every second made it harder to do so.
As Luna concluded her heartfelt prayer to the village's goddess, she opened her eyes, her smile radiant as the morning sun.
With grace and reverence, she knelt before Arthur, her movements deliberate and unhurried, as she began the ceremonial placement of the necklace around his neck.
The necklace, adorned with symbols of honor and respect, gleamed with a timeless beauty against the backdrop of the river's flowing waters.
"Sweetie… you have no idea how happy I am right now," Luna whispered, her voice carrying the weight of years spent alongside Arthur, her hand tenderly cupping his cheeks, bringing their faces close.
"I…can see that." Arthur met her gaze with a warm and knowing look, their eyes locking in a moment. But for a split second, his eyes darted downwards to take a peak at Luna's massive milk shakers.
Although he immediately diverted his eyes, Luna caught on to this, she moved his face closer, with a mischievous grin on her face as she spoke.
"Are you have pervy thoughts about your mother right now?" She asked, looking him in the eye with a wanting expression on her face.
Arthur was about to respond when Yuki suddenly chimed in.
"It's time for the next phase of the ritual." She spoke, standing close to them, with a tray and feathers in her hand and a cold stare.
The ritual unfurled like a tapestry woven with tradition and significance, stretching on for another hour.
Arthur, now adorned with the sacred necklace, found himself immersed in a series of trials that ranged from the symbolic to the practical, each a testament to his commitment to the village.
In a touching display of unity, Arthur gently kissed the cheeks of every woman in the village, sealing a bond of trust and camaraderie that transcended words.
The air was filled with soft laughter and heartfelt blessings, as the women, young and old, greeted their new leader with open hearts.
Then came the moment of choosing his second-in-command, a decision that held the promise of collaboration and strength.
As the names of Asorth, Luna, and Sina were announced, each woman accepted her role with grace, a ripple of applause resonating through the assembly, acknowledging their dedication and leadership.
By the time the sun began its descent beyond the horizon, the village had witnessed the culmination of a historic day.
Arthur, now the recognized leader of Eldoria, returned to his chambers, weary from the day's journey. His body bore the weight of tradition and responsibility, and as he rested on his bed, the room exuded a sense of solemnity and accomplishment.
The door to his chamber swung open, and Isla entered, her presence a gentle interruption to the quietude.
Her eyes, soft and understanding, found Arthur in the room, and with a respectful gesture, she closed the door behind her, sealing off the world outside.
"I didn't think you'd actually go through the whole event on your own master." Isla spoke, standing at the side as she watched Arthur rest it out on the bed.
"Well, it's not like I had a choice… and besides, it was worth it, now I rule over Eldoria with its riches and artifacts, which is just the first phase of my plan." Arthur responded, although his eyes were still closed.
"I see… whatever decision you make… I'll be here to support you through it." Isla uttered, slowly sitting on the bed and resting her head on his chest.
A sudden intrusion shattered the tranquility. The door swung open once more, this time with a frantic urgency, and in rushed Sina. Her normally composed face was etched with fear, her voice a panicked cry that cut through the room.
"Master!"
Arthur, weary from the rituals and trials of the day, swiftly turned his gaze towards the door, his eyes widening at the sight of Sina, trembling like a leaf.
"Master! The Black Knights are here!"
The room seemed to hold its breath, as if the very walls were bracing for the impending storm.
