Chapter 5 - Chapter 4

Ren, carrying the girl, runs back to the evacuation area, and people said track and field wouldn't be useful unless I planned to go pro. That it was a waste of my time. You never know what will happen in life…your second life?

While Ren is busy running through streets every which way trying to avoid the various types of monsters, he notices the girl is trembling all the way to her bones. Ren embraces her tighter, "don't worry, I'll get you back to your mother".

The girl clings to him for dear life. After a few minutes, Ren makes it back to the evacuation site. Upon seeing her daughter, life fills the mother's eyes once again. Ren hands her over and takes a moment to catch his breath. Mali, "I can't believe it. There's nothing in the world that we could offer for it to be enough. Maya may be a child at the moment, but you can take her once she comes of age, as a wife or mistresses, which ever you prefer". Maylene bows her head as deep as she can holding a baby and child in each arm.

Ren, why are you offering up a young girl as a reward? She's just a kid. Oh wait, there was probably stuff like this in the past from my world. From the looks of things, they're not too technologically advanced. The middle ages? Well, never mind that. I'm not about to lock in this girls future for something so trivial...well, it wasn't trivial, but it still feels...off, "I actually didn't do much. There was a woman fighting a minotaur. She deserves all the credit", easiest thing to do is give the credit to someone else.

Mali, "there's no need to be so humble. Rushing into a monster attack is no easy feat. You saved Maya and nothing changes that. Not taking her would mean we'd have no other means to repay you, so Maya would need to become a slave".

Ren, shocked, WHAAAAAAT?!?!, "hold on, why does it lead to that??? I don't want anything in the first place, but at the very least, can't your daughter get her fiancé to pay me or something?". Mali, "if it was Maylene herself you saved, or my grandson, then that would have worked. But they're under no obligation to do that for Maya. It'd actually put the marriage at risk. Me and Maya will be nobles in name only, so we aren't worth anything".

Ren, "Isn't there any way around this? I don't want to shackle Maya's future". Mali, "shackle? It's the opposite", as she tilts her head in confusion. Ren, AHHHHH, my sense of values doesn't work on them. Maylene, "Mother, as Maya's mother, I could pay him back in Maya's stead".

Mali, "I know you're not married yet, but that wouldn't be enough dear. We don't have the time". Maylene, "he seems opposed to it so I'm sure he wouldn't demand much. Although it's a bit unfortunate, I'm grateful as Maya's mother that he respects her freedom to this extent", she turns and looks Ren in the eyes, "would that be acceptable?".

Ren, "anything that doesn't result in anyone's future being taken away". Maylene, "then it's settled. Mother, you have a tent in your carriage don't you? We should set it up once we get to the designated evacuation area". Mali, "if that's all he wants, then nobody should complain", as long as nobody finds out.

Maylene, "sorry, Sir, I never got your name". Ren, "It's Ren. You can drop the Sir". Maylene, "If you insist, that would be easier on me. If I could trouble you with helping us sent up the tent, it would be a great help". Ren, "no problem. It's best to set up a base as quick as possible in times of emergencies", probably. I have no idea.

Once they evacuate to a more suitable location, the tent is set up a little ways away from the carriage, Maylene, "which would you prefer, the carriage or the tent?". Ren, "I'll take the tent, it's smaller". Maylene, "understood. Please prepare it as you please". Ren, "yea, thanks", getting a tent in this situation is a great help. Geez, why wasn't this an option in the first place? Give back my peace of mind from the panic and worry I had to go through!

Ren starts to get settled in his tent, as I thought, the ground's a bit cold. Getting them to sleep in the carriage was the right call. A female voice calls out to him from outside the tent, "Can I come in? I thought the ground would be cold, so I brought some blankets to lay on. Ren, oh, perfect. True consideration at it's finest, "yea, come in".

Maylene enters the tent that's only big enough to fit one or two people, time to start repaying him. Ren, actually, it'd be better if I got out to make it easier to put the blankets down. Ren begins to get up but is frozen stiff by the sight in front of him. Maylene pulled the shoulders of her dress to the side, allowing it to fall to the ground, revealing her naked body to Ren, "I've come to repay you, as promised". Ren, THAT'S WHAT SHE MEANT???

The next morning, Ren wakes up and sits up in a daze. He looks to the side and sees a pretty, short purple haired Maylene, who is completely naked under the blanket, OH, it wasn't a dream. I actually...slept with her last night...let's think about this for a minute. I was too stunned to think straight and ended up letting her seduce me, losing my virginity. Is what happened bad? I can't say so. They were going on about how they would have to sell the daughter into slavery to pay me back, which was absolutely not an option. Me promising to take the girl as my wife when she is older is also not an option. In that case, what happened last night had no demerits, in fact, it only had merits. I graduated from my virginity, and although I thought that my first time would be a train wreak, she said she was satisfied. Yep, I can't see any downsides. In conclusion, I didn't do anything wrong. In fact, refusing her advances would've been rude at that point. She was literally putting her body on the line for her daughter. Truly admirable.

Ren continues his monologue, Now that I've gotten that out of the way...HOLY SHIT, OLDER WOMEN ARE HOT! They've got to be against the rules or something. They're lethal weapons! What was the term for her again, a MILF? Yep, no doubt about it, she's set me on the path of older women. They're a national treasure. But the question is what to do from here? I let myself get caught up in the moment so I'm not sure how to approach this...oh, I hope she doesn't get pregnant, even if she said she wanted it insideI'm an idiot.

As Ren was contemplating to himself, he suddenly felt movement under the blanket. Under the covers, Maylene has migrated from his side to between his legs. She rubs her breasts from his abdomen upwards to his chest until her face is level with his. Ren, lethal weapons!

A short while later, Ren and Maylene are both lying down, breathing heavily under the blanket after their 'active' morning. It's well past early morning. Ren, after catching his breath, "what's going to happen now?". Maylene, "being a parent, I've got to choose the best choice for my children. I wish you were a higher ranking noble than my fiancée, but I doubt one would come out this far, practically the front lines. As much as I'd absolutely love to be your woman, I'll be leaving soon. And given how you were thinking about my daughter's future, I doubt you'd be up for an affair even if you live in the capital".

Ren is a bit stunned, "...that's out of the question, how could that even be an option?", I COMPLETELY FORGOT SHE HAS A FIANCEE! Sex really does cloud your judgement. Maylene, "thought so. Figured I'd throw it out there. You have no idea of your worth". Ren, "my worth?". Maylene, "all the men I've been with have only had dicks half the size of yours. And your stamina is incredible, doubly so since you were a virgin. You can get any girl you want with no complaints. I wish we could spend more time together, but we need to go".

Ren, OHHHH, I'm above average here? I was a bit above average for Japan after I did a little research. But if that's the case, I feel sorry for the men here...and the women. Maylene, starts to get up and put on her dress, "as much as I'd love another round, my son is probably hungry. I hope you didn't completely squeeze them dry", as she props up her breasts and leaves the tent.

Ren starts to get dressed while thinking to himself, commando? Wait, she was surprised by my boxers. Do they not have any here? He leaves the tent once dressed, I'll put that aside for now. I need to think about what to do now...wait, actually, what do I do now? I have like no money, no companions. The only people I know are leaving soon...isn't this a very bad situation? I have no clue what to do!

After a couple of seconds of thinking, What's the saying? 'When in doubt, follow your instincts'? Let's go...to town? That's where they're telling me to go. I doubt a town that's half...a third(?) destroyed will do any good, but onwards I go, as he puts on his cloak and walks off, clearly in a good mood, a skip in his step before stopping once he realises something, is it ok for me to just leave like this? What should I do in this situation? It feels awkward going to talk to them now.

Ren looks back towards Maylene, who's now breastfeeding her son while sitting in the carriage. Now that their eyes have met, Maylene gives him a smile and a small wave. Sensing that everything is ok, Ren turns back towards town and starts walking, guess it's ok. I feel like I'm doing something bad. Well, I did do something bad…it's decided, I'm not going to think about this anymore. Onwards!
