What had started as a simple low-stakes adventure had quickly spiraled into something utterly absurd. Deep in the forest, Ellustrya and Celdine found themselves at the center of a bet neither could back down from: whoever pulled their trousers up first would lose, and the winner would get to spend the entire day with Boldasarre.
The moment their trousers fell, things took an unexpected turn.
Ellustrya, with her usual grace and poise, stood tall despite the ridiculous circumstances. From the waist up, she looked every bit the royal she was. Her long, flowing blue hair, intricately braided, cascaded down her shoulders. Her dark complexion gleamed in the soft sunlight, contrasting with the rich red and gold of her outfit. The intricate detailing on her royal cloak, clasped at her shoulders, further highlighted her status as an Elder Dark Elf princess. She radiated elegance, her narrowed blue eyes giving her an air of authority that few could challenge.
However, below the waist, things were... less dignified.
Ellustrya's trousers sat helplessly at her ankles, revealing the pristine white of her high-cut underwear. The brilliant white fabric stood out against her dark skin, the contrast only emphasizing her current predicament. The high leg apertures of her panties exposed much of her thighs and hips, and with each step, she felt the cool forest air brushing against her bare skin. Though she carried herself with her usual regal bearing, there was no denying the absurdity of the situation—she, a royal figure, adventuring with her undies on full display. It was scandalous, almost unthinkable... and yet, somehow, it had happened.
Celdine, for her part, seemed to be taking things in stride. The blonde adventurer's smile was infectious as she walked beside Ellustrya, her own trousers still around her ankles. Like the princess, Celdine had her own pair of high-cut panties, though hers were bold and colorful, contrasted sharply with Ellustrya's more refined appearance. The mischievous glint in her eyes showed that she was reveling in the competition, making playful jabs at Ellustrya as they trekked through the forest.
"Watch your step, Ellustrya," Celdine teased, hopping over a tree root as Ellustrya carefully navigated the terrain. "Wouldn't want those 'queenly knickers' to get dirty."
Ellustrya gritted her teeth, doing her best to ignore the blonde's barbs. But even as she tried to maintain her composure, she couldn't help but feel the burning heat in her cheeks.
"Everyone now knows you're the princess who dropped her pants and showed everyone her panties!" Celdine snickered as they reached a clearing in the woods.
Ellustrya shook her head, doing her best to focus on the task at hand. She didn't have time for Celdine's games.
"Just how do you keep your undies in such pristine white, anyway?" Celdine asked, her tone mocking. "Some special royal detergent? Or is it just your natural purity that keeps them so bright and clean?"
Ellustrya sighed, trying to keep her temper in check. "You would know all about that, wouldn't you?" she shot back, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
Celdine smirked, shrugging off the comment. "Hey, at least I'm not the one who decided to wear white panties on an adventure."
"White is the only color I wear," Ellustrya replied. "Besides, it's not as if this was planned."
Celdine chuckled, shaking her head in amusement. "Yeah, I'm sure it's all just a big coincidence."
"Moreover, everyone saw you with your trousers down, too. Your lilac knickers are far more embarrassing than mine."
The blonde adventurer waved a hand dismissively. "Eh, everyone knows I've got a wild streak. They don't expect anything different from me."
Ellustrya rolled her eyes, unable to hold back a chuckle.
"Besides, Boldy can't resist me in my pink undies, you know!" Celdine grinned. "And when we get out of this bet, we're going to spend the whole day together."
Celdine flashed the princess a knowing wink as she continued her brazen taunting.
"We'll see about that," Ellustrya replied. "This isn't over yet."
The two women continued on their way, neither one willing to back down from their ridiculous bet. With each step, they felt the cool breeze against their bare legs, a constant reminder of the stakes at hand.
"Feels refreshing, that breeze, doesn't it Ellustry?" Celdine asked.
Ellustrya glanced over at the adventurer, unable to hide her disdain. "You would think so."
"It's like a soft caress on your skin," Celdine said, her voice low and sultry. "It sends shivers up your spine."
"That's not how I'd describe it," Ellustrya replied dryly. "Though I suppose it could be... pleasant, in the right circumstances."
"Pleasant? You mean like when you were alone with Boldy last night Was it pleasant then?" Celdine smirked.
Ellustrya felt her cheeks flush, her eyes widening as the memory of last night came flooding back to her. She had been vulnerable and exposed, and yet somehow, it had felt... right.
"It was... nice," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "He was so gentle with me..."
"He was just fascinated by your panties," Celdine interrupted, a glint of mischief in her eyes. "I know I am!"
Ellustrya groaned, rolling her eyes at Celdine's brazen remark. "Of course you are," she muttered.
"I bet he really loved how tight your underwear is on you," Celdine continued, her grin growing wider by the minute. "How it hugs your curves, how it shows off your perfect butt. How it elongates your bare, shapely legs..."
"Can't you be quiet?" Ellustrya sighed, fighting the urge to deck Celdine in the face. "We're trying to make our way through a dangerous forest, here."
"Don't change the subject, Princess," Celdine retorted. "We're talking about how much Boldy loved seeing your panties."
"You're being ridiculous," Ellustrya huffed.
"What's ridiculous is that your pants are around your ankles, but you can pull them up at any time!"
Ellustrya clenched her jaw, fighting the urge to end the competition on the spot. But she knew she couldn't back down now—she had to see this through, no matter what.
"Well, I hope you've enjoyed the breeze today, Princess," Celdine said, a hint of mockery in her voice. "Because when you lose to me, you'll realize that you paraded around in your bright white panties with your pants around your ankles all for nothing!"
"And when I win, I will have the whole day with Boldasarre," Ellustrya replied coolly. "And you'll have to find another man to chase after."
"Boldy would never choose the white panty princess, am I right?" Celdine chuckled.
"We'll see about that," Ellustrya shot back, her eyes narrowing. "You'll see that I am far more than just my underwear."
"Well, why don't we take things up a notch, Princess Panties?" Celdine asked, a mischievous gleam in her eyes.
"What do you mean?" Ellustrya asked, wary of the blonde adventurer's intentions.
"If we're going to be parading around in our knickers, then why don't we make it more interesting?" Celdine suggested, grinning widely.
"Interesting how?" Ellustrya asked, her curiosity piqued.
Celdine reached for the waistband of her underwear and began to peel them off.
"Let's go completely bottomless!" The adventurer declared as her underwear slowly began to descend. Ellustrya gave her a firm slap, stopping Celdine in her tracks.
"Don't be so foolish!" Ellustrya exclaimed, leaving no room for dissent. "This wasn't part of our agreement. The knickers must stay on, come what may."
Celdine's face fell, a hint of disappointment evident in her expression.
"Fine," she grumbled, pulling her underwear back up. "But don't say I didn't offer you a chance to spice things up."
"Spice things up?" Ellustrya asked incredulously. "As if parading around in my underpants isn't enough, you want me to be completely nude from the waist down as well?"
"You know, it's not a bad idea," Celdine replied, a hint of mischief in her voice. "I bet Boldy would love to see us walking around with our knickers down, and our bottoms out on full display."
"No, he wouldn't. This conversation has ended."
"Alright, fine, keep your knickers on," Celdine said, a smirk tugging at the corner of her lips. "But you're missing out, Princess."
"No, I'm not," Ellustrya replied, her eyes narrowing slightly. "And you've got to keep yours on too, or else you forfeit the bet."
The two women stared at each other for a moment before Celdine sighed in defeat.
"Fine," she said, rolling her eyes. "We'll do it your way."
"Thank you," Ellustrya replied, her tone laden with sarcasm.
The two women continued on their way, the forest seemingly stretching out before them endlessly. Ellustrya's mind was racing as she tried to process everything that had happened—from the ridiculous bet to the absurd circumstances they now found themselves in.
"This is ludicrous," she muttered to herself, shaking her head in disbelief.
"What's wrong?" Celdine asked, raising an eyebrow.
"This entire situation," Ellustrya replied, her exasperation evident. "I can't believe I let myself get caught up in this mess."
"Don't worry," Celdine said, flashing the princess a reassuring smile. "We'll get through this together."
"It's not that," Ellustrya sighed. "It's just... I'm a royal figure. And here I am, parading around in my underwear like some sort of... exhibitionist."
Celdine laughed, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "That's kind of the point of this bet, you know."
Ellustrya rolled her eyes, unable to hide her frustration. "It's just so... demeaning."
"Hey, at least you have nice underwear," Celdine replied, gesturing at Ellustrya's high-cut panties. "I'd kill for a pair of underwear that fits me like that."
Ellustrya lifted her head proudly, her silvery hair catching the light. "My knickers are fit for a queen," she responded coolly, adjusting her cloak.
"Well, they certainly do make your legs look amazing," Celdine remarked. Ellustrya couldn't help but notice the way the blonde's gaze lingered on her bare legs, the hunger in her eyes evident.
"It's all about the right kind of underwear, you know," Celdine continued, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "If you've got the right underwear, you can make any outfit look sexy."
"I suppose it is true that one's undergarments can be an important part of one's appearance," Ellustrya said thoughtfully, stroking her chin. "After all, we do spend most of our time wearing them."
"Exactly," Celdine replied, nodding eagerly. "You've got to think about what kind of impression you want to give off, and your underwear is a big part of that."
"But I'm a royal," Ellustrya protested. "I shouldn't have to worry about such things."
"Of course you should," Celdine shot back, rolling her eyes. "Just because you're a royal doesn't mean you can't show off your body. You've got a great figure—why not flaunt it?"
Ellustrya sighed, shaking her head in defeat. "I suppose you have a point."
"And besides," Celdine continued, her tone becoming more playful "you've got to admit, this bet is pretty fun."
"That is debatable," Ellustrya muttered, glancing down at her bare legs.
"Oh, come on," Celdine exclaimed, nudging Ellustrya in the arm. "Admit it—you're having fun."
Ellustrya rolled her eyes, unable to hide a smirk. "Alright, fine," she replied. "I suppose this is... moderately amusing."
The soft breeze once again reminded her of the exposure of her bare legs, but she remained composed, unwilling to give Celdine the satisfaction of seeing her flustered.
"See? I knew you'd come around eventually," Celdine replied, grinning widely.
The two women continued their trek through the forest, the air around them thick with tension as they tried to outdo each other in their brazen display of panties.
As the two women shuffled through the forest, their trousers dragging uselessly at their ankles, they encountered a group of fellow adventurers. The group stared wide-eyed at the sight before them—Ellustrya and Celdine both dressed fully above the waist, but their lower extremities completely exposed.
The adventurers, whom were all young women, stared at them in disbelief. One of them, a young woman with auburn hair and pale skin, spoke up first.
"I don't believe this..." she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's really them."
"Yes, it is us, and you can see my royal undergarments!" Ellustrya replied.
The adventurers' eyes widened in shock and awe as they took in the sight of the royal princess and adventurer, both of them half-naked and clearly enjoying their little bet.
"I just... I can't believe it," the auburn-haired adventurer continued, her voice laced with disbelief. "How did you end up like this?"
Ellustrya and Celdine exchanged a glance, their expressions mirroring one another.
"It's a long story," Celdine said, flashing the adventurers a wry smile.
"Well, we're not going anywhere anytime soon," the auburn-haired adventurer replied. "Why don't you tell us all about it?"
Ellustrya sighed, shaking her head in amusement. "Alright, fine," she replied. "I suppose we might as well." Celdine, quick on her feet, grinned and concocted an outlandish explanation. "You see," she said, "monsters won't attack you if they can see your underthings. It's a little-known secret."
The female adventurers blinked, glancing from Celdine's lilac briefs to Ellustrya's royal white ones. The explanation was absurd—yet strangely, they believed it.
"That's... that's incredible," the auburn-haired adventurer breathed, her eyes wide with wonder.
"So, you two are taking this opportunity to go with your trousers down for the entire day?" Another one asked.
"Of course!" Celdine replied, grinning widely. "It's a lot more fun than walking through the forest with your trousers up, I'll tell you that."
"Really?" one of them asked, eyeing Ellustrya's high-cut knickers. "It doesn't seem like it would be very comfortable."
Ellustrya shrugged, shifting her weight slightly. "It's actually not that bad once you get used to it," she replied.
Celdine nodded confidently. "Absolutely. Best protection there is."
"Why not just remove your pants completely?" One of them asked.
Celdine smirked, shooting Ellustrya a knowing look. "You never know what might be around the corner," she replied. "We need to be prepared."
"Yeah, but..." the young woman trailed off, clearly unable to find the words to express her thoughts.
"Look, you're missing out," Celdine said, her tone matter-of-fact. "There's something freeing about going without trousers. It's like you're truly living in the moment."
The adventurers looked at each other, clearly unsure how to respond.
"Just give it a try," Celdine continued, her voice encouraging. "You might be surprised at how much fun it is."
The group of adventurers stared at Ellustrya and Celdine in disbelief, their expressions ranging from shock to amusement to outright horror.
"This is so embarrassing," Ellustrya sighed, shaking her head in resignation.
"Well, we've already come this far," Celdine replied, a smirk tugging at the corner of her lips. "No point in stopping now."
Ellustrya gritted her teeth, trying to ignore the way the cool forest air felt against her bare legs. The absurdity of the situation was not lost on her, but she knew that there was no backing down now—not when she was so close to winning the bet.
The other adventurers, however, seemed less than thrilled by the prospect of going around with their trousers down. They fidgeted uncomfortably, their faces flushed with embarrassment as they tried to avoid making eye contact with Ellustrya and Celdine.
"You've really got to live a little, you know?" Celdine said, her tone light and playful as she addressed the group of adventurers. "Don't be afraid to embrace the moment."
"Besides," she added, flashing them a mischievous grin, "Boldasarre loves it!"
At the mention of Boldasarre, the young women's expressions changed—some became eager, while others appeared intrigued.
"He does?" one of them asked, her eyes wide with wonder.
Celdine nodded confidently. "Absolutely," she replied. "He thinks it's the sexiest thing in the world."
The adventurers' eyes widened in surprise, their curiosity piqued.
"Well," one of them said, her tone hesitant, "I suppose we could give it a try..."
"That's the spirit!" Celdine exclaimed, grinning widely. "Now, who wants to go first?"
The group of adventurers looked at each other, clearly unsure of how to proceed.
"Oh, I'll do it," one of them finally said, her voice barely above a whisper. She reached down and began to unbuckle her belt, her hands shaking slightly as she did so.
Celdine watched with amusement as the young woman slowly pulled down her trousers, revealing a pair of modest, hi-cut white underwear.
"There you go!" Celdine said encouragingly. "Now, just put your trousers down to your ankles, and you're all set."
The young woman complied, her movements tentative and uncertain as she followed Celdine's instructions. Once she had lowered her trousers to her ankles, she let out a soft gasp, her eyes widening in surprise.
"Wow," she breathed, her gaze fixed on her own bare legs. "This is... strange."
"It is, isn't it?" Celdine replied, grinning widely. "But once you get used to it, it's actually kind of fun."
Ellustrya watched as the young woman experimented with the new sensation, shifting her weight from side to side as she tried to adjust to the feeling of having her trousers down around her ankles.
"How does it feel?" Celdine asked, her gaze fixed on the young woman's expression.
"It's... strange," the young woman replied, her voice barely above a whisper. "I can't believe I'm actually doing this."
"Just wait until you get to see Boldy's reaction," Celdine said, her eyes gleaming with mischief.
The other adventurers stared at Celdine in disbelief, their expressions ranging from shock to horror. But the young woman who had puller her trousers down seemed to have no such qualms. In fact, she appeared to be rather enjoying herself, her eyes sparkling with curiosity as she moved around.
"It really isn't as bad as it seems," she said, her tone somewhat reassuring. "Once you get over the initial embarrassment, it's actually quite fun."
Her words seemed to ease some of the tension among the group, and soon, more of them began to lower their trousers to their ankles The air around them filled with nervous laughter and excited chatter as they took in the strange new sensation. A multitude of different panty colors were on display as the group of young adventurers began to explore the sensations of having their pants down. All of them were wearing the high-cut style, popularised by none other than Ellustrya herself for adventuring.
"You know," one of the women said, her voice barely above a whisper, "this feels kind of... nice."
The others looked at her in surprise, their expressions ranging from shock to disbelief.
"It does?" one of them asked, clearly unable to comprehend what the young woman was saying.
The young woman nodded, a slight smile tugging at the corner of her lips. "Yeah," she replied, her tone slightly embarrassed. "It's like... I don't know, it just feels freeing, somehow."
The others stared at her in disbelief, their expressions ranging from shock to horror. But slowly, one by one, they began to lower their trousers to their ankles, their faces flushed with embarrassment as they explored this strange new sensation.
Ellustrya watched as the young adventurers fidgeted awkwardly, clearly unsure how to handle the situation. She felt a pang of sympathy for them, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a sense of pride at being the one who had inspired this moment. It was, after all, her and Celdine's bet that had started all of this—a simple wager between two adventurers over who could go the longest without pulling their trousers up.
"This is... this is unbelievable," one of the young women said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I never thought I'd be doing something like this..."
Celdine laughed, shaking her head in amusement. "That's the beauty of it," she replied, her tone matter-of-fact. "You never know what you might end up doing when you're out on an adventure."
The other women stared at Celdine in shock, clearly unable to comprehend how she could be so casual about the situation.
"But... but we're in public," one of them protested, her voice laced with disbelief. "We can't just... go around like this!"
Celdine shrugged, her expression nonchalant. "Sure we can," she replied, her tone matter-of-fact. "We're adventurers—we make our own rules."
Ellustrya couldn't help but admire Celdine's confidence, despite the absurdity of their circumstances. The blonde adventurer seemed completely unfazed by the fact that everyone was half-naked in the middle of the forest, parading their panties for everyone to see. In fact, she appeared to be rather enjoying herself, her eyes gleaming with mischief as she addressed the group of young adventurers.
The adventurers looked at each other, their expressions ranging from shock to horror.
"I'd be so embarrassed if Boldasarre saw me in this state!" One of them cried out.
"Me too! What would he think of me?!" Another added.
"He'd think you were sexy as hell," Celdine shot back, grinning widely. "All these petty ladies, dropping their pants just for him!"
The women gasped, their eyes widening in shock and horror.
"You think so?" one of them asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Absolutely," Celdine replied, her tone matter-of-fact. "I guarantee you that Boldasarre would love to see all of you going around with your trousers down."
"Really?" another one of them asked, her expression uncertain.
"Absolutely," Celdine replied, her tone confident. "Trust me—I know men, and I know Boldy better than anyone."
The young adventurers exchanged glances, clearly unsure how to respond.
Ellustrya sighed quietly, shaking her head in disbelief. "This is ridiculous," she muttered under her breath, doing her best to ignore the absurdity of the situation.
"What's the matter, Princess?" Celdine asked, her tone mocking. "You look like you've seen a ghost."
Ellustrya gritted her teeth, doing her best to maintain her composure. "I'm fine," she replied tersely, her eyes narrowing slightly. "I'm just... not used to all this attention."
Celdine laughed, her eyes gleaming with mischief as she addressed the group of young adventurers.
"Don't worry, ladies!" she exclaimed, her voice booming through the forest. "This is nothing compared to what you'll get once you meet Boldy!"
The young women stared at Celdine in shock, their expressions ranging from disbelief to curiosity.
"I don't think I could do it," one of them whispered, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Oh, you totally can," Celdine replied, her tone matter-of-fact. "Once you get over the initial embarrassment, it's actually quite fun."
Ellustrya rolled her eyes, trying to ignore the way the cool forest air felt against her bare legs. She knew that she shouldn't be surprised—Celdine was always full of surprises. But this? This was something else entirely.
"I can't believe I let myself get caught up in this mess," she muttered under her breath, shaking her head in dismay. "I must have lost my mind..."
The young adventurers looked at each other, their expressions ranging from shock to horror.
"This is unbelievable," one of them said, her voice barely above a whisper.
"We can't do this," another added, her voice trembling slightly.
"We have to," the first woman replied, her tone firm. "We're adventurers—we make our own rules."
Ellustrya sighed quietly. "Great. Now everyone's running around in their knickers," she muttered under her breath, her eyes narrowing in mild frustration. Despite the cool air brushing against her exposed thighs, she stood as tall and regal as ever, determined to maintain her composure even if her royal knickers were on full display for all to see.
Celdine led the gaggle of adventurers, all with their trousers around their ankles, back to the camp where Boldasarre was resting. As they approached, Boldasarre looked up from his spot by the campfire, his eyes widening in shock as he took in the sight before him.
A dozen young women, all clad in their adventuring gear from the waist up but with their trousers down around their ankles, exposing a rainbow of brightly colored panties. And there, at the front of the group, were Ellustrya and Celdine, both looking rather pleased with themselves.
Boldasarre's jaw dropped open, his eyes bulging out of his head as he stared at the spectacle before him. He tried to speak, but no words came out—only a strangled, choking sound that was quickly followed by a gush of blood from his nose.
The adventurers gasped in horror as Boldasarre toppled over backwards, his eyes rolling back in his head as he lost consciousness.
"Oh no, I think we killed him!" one of the adventurers cried out, her voice laced with panic.
"He's been pantied to death!" another added, her tone equally horrified.
Ellustrya and Celdine exchanged a glance, their expressions mirroring one another's concern.
"Boldasarre! Boldasarre!" one of the adventurers cried out, rushing over to his side. She knelt down beside him, her hands fluttering uselessly over his prone form. "Please wake up! Please don't let my panties be the very last thing you see!"
Ellustrya knelt beside Boldasarre, her fingers lightly brushing his forehead. "He's fine, he just got a little... excited," she said, a smirk playing at her lips. She straightened up and looked at the other adventurers. "Give him some space, he'll come to in a moment."
Boldasarre's eyes fluttered open, his vision blurry as he took in the scene around him. The colors and shapes gradually sharpened, and he realized he was surrounded by a sea of anxious faces and bright undergarments.
"Boldasarre, are you alright?" one of the adventurers asked, her voice tinged with concern.
He blinked a few times, trying to regain his composure. "Yeah, I'm fine," he muttered, pushing himself up to a sitting position. He rubbed the back of his head and glanced around, still somewhat dazed.
Before he could fully gather his wits, the girls swarmed him. Hands reached out to steady him, voices overlapping in a cacophony of concern and relief.
"Oh thank goodness you're okay!"
"We were so worried!"
"Do you need anything? Water? Food?"
Boldasarre held up a hand, attempting to calm the flurry of attention. "I'm alright, really," he assured them, though his cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and amusement. "Just... got a bit overwhelmed."
Ellustrya folded her arms over her chest, watching the scene unfold with an amused expression. "Well, Boldasarre," she said with a teasing lilt in her voice, "it seems you've become quite the popular man today."
Celdine chuckled beside her. "You should see your face right now," she said to Boldasarre. "You turned more white than Ellustrya's briefs."
Boldasarre couldn't help but laugh, despite himself. The absurdity of the situation was undeniable. He glanced around at the adventurers' worried faces and colorful undergarments, shaking his head in disbelief.
"I've seen a lot on our adventures," he said, grinning widely now. "But this? This takes the cake."
The girls laughed along with him, the tension easing as they realized he was truly alright. The forest air buzzed with their relieved chatter as they began to settle back into their camp routines.
Ellustrya met Boldasarre's eyes for a moment longer than necessary before turning away to join Celdine by the fire. Boldasarre watched them go, still bemused by the turn of events but grateful for the strange camaraderie that had formed among them all.
As the adventurers began to disperse back to their various tasks around the camp, Boldasarre found his gaze lingering on their retreating forms. Despite his best efforts to maintain a gentlemanly composure, he couldn't help but appreciate the sight of so many lovely ladies with their trousers down, colorful undergarments on full display.
Ellustrya, who had been watching Boldasarre closely, felt a pang of jealousy as she noticed the direction of his gaze. She knew it was ridiculous to feel possessive over him, especially given the circumstances, but she couldn't help the way her heart clenched at the thought of him admiring anyone else.
She strode over to where Boldasarre was sitting, her bare legs brushing against the fabric of her lowered trousers with each step. "Enjoying the view?" she asked, her tone sharp and accusatory.
Boldasarre's head snapped up, his eyes widening as he realized he'd been caught. "I... I wasn't..." he stammered, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
Ellustrya folded her arms over her chest, her lips pursed in a tight line. "Don't lie to me, Boldasarre," she said, her voice low and dangerous. "I saw the way you were looking at them."
Boldasarre swallowed hard, his mouth suddenly dry. "Ellustrya, I swear, it's not what you think," he said, his tone pleading. "I was just... surprised, that's all."
Ellustrya scoffed, her eyes narrowing in disbelief. "Surprised?" she repeated, her tone mocking. "Is that what we're calling it now?"
Boldasarre sighed, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "Look, I'm sorry," he said, his voice sincere. "I didn't mean to upset you. It's just... this whole situation is so bizarre, I don't even know how to react."
Ellustrya's expression softened slightly, her anger fading as she saw the genuine remorse in Boldasarre's eyes. "I know," she said, her voice quieter now. "I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have snapped at you like that."
Boldasarre reached out, taking Ellustrya's hand in his own. "It's okay," he said, his thumb brushing gently over her knuckles. "I understand why you're upset. But I promise, you have nothing to worry about. You're the only one I want to be with."
Ellustrya felt her heart skip a beat at his words, a small smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. She squeezed his hand gently, letting him know that she believed him.
Ellustrya looked at Boldasarre, her expression softening into a playful smile. "So, Boldasarre," she said, her tone light and teasing, "what's your favorite color underwear?"
Boldasarre's eyes widened, his mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water. He stared at Ellustrya, his mind racing as he tried to come up with an answer. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't seem to form a coherent thought.
"I... I don't..." he stammered, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment. "I mean, I haven't really thought about it..."
Ellustrya raised an eyebrow, her lips twitching with amusement. "Really?" she asked, her tone disbelieving. "You're surrounded by a group of beautiful women in their underwear, and you haven't thought about what color you like best?"
Boldasarre swallowed hard, his eyes darting around the camp as if looking for an escape. He knew he was trapped, but he couldn't bring himself to answer the question.
Just then, Celdine sauntered over, a knowing smirk on her face. "It's pink, right, Boldy?" she asked, her tone confident and self-assured.
Boldasarre's head snapped up, his eyes widening in surprise. "What?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
Celdine chuckled, shaking her head in amusement. "Come on, Boldy," she said, her tone teasing. "We all know you have a thing for pink. It's written all over your face."
Boldasarre's cheeks flushed an even deeper shade of red, his embarrassment reaching new heights. He opened his mouth to protest, but no words came out.
Ellustrya watched the exchange with interest, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Is that true, Boldasarre?" she asked, her tone curious. "Do you really like pink underwear?"
Boldasarre looked back and forth between the two women, his mind racing as he tried to come up with a response. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't seem to find the right words.
"I... I don't know," he said finally, his voice weak and uncertain. "I guess I've never really thought about it before."
Celdine laughed, shaking her head in disbelief. "Sure you haven't," she said, her tone sarcastic. "Just admit it, Boldy. You're a sucker for a pretty pair of pink panties."
Boldasarre's face was now a deep shade of crimson, his embarrassment reaching new heights. He looked at Ellustrya, his expression pleading for her to save him from this conversation.
Ellustrya, never one to be outdone, leaned toward Boldasarre, who had been trying (and failing) to avert his gaze. "White is right, isn't it, Boldasarre?" she teased, giving her knickers a subtle tug. The high leg apertures shifted slightly, exposing more of her hips as she maintained her playful tone. "You're my panty prince, aren't you?"
Boldasarre's face flushed a deep crimson. "P-P-Panty P-Prince?!" he stammered, overwhelmed by the situation.
Before Boldasarre could manage another word, Celdine pushed forward, dropping her trousers completely and declaring, "He's my Panty Prince, not yours!" She shoved Ellustrya aside and sat herself squarely on Boldasarre's lap, her colorful briefs fully on display.
Poor Boldasarre could only make muffled sounds as Celdine took her seat.
Ellustrya, however, wasn't going to let Celdine have the final word. With her trousers still pooled around her ankles, she gracefully hopped toward her rival, her royal demeanor unwavering. With one swift motion, she headbutted Celdine, knocking her out cold.
As Celdine slumped to the ground, Ellustrya stood tall once more. Her gleaming white knickers contrasted sharply with her dark skin, the high-cut design continuing to leave her legs exposed. She turned to the other adventurers, her regal voice cutting through the silence.
"Don't say a word about this whole thing to anyone," she commanded, her narrowed eyes ensuring no one dared disobey.
The adventurers nodded, their eyes darting nervously from Ellustrya's still-exposed knickers to her commanding gaze.
With Celdine unconscious and the other adventurers sufficiently cowed, Ellustrya turned her attention back to Boldasarre. He sat there, still stunned by the events that had transpired, his eyes wide and his mouth agape.
Ellustrya approached him, her steps measured and deliberate despite the trousers around her ankles. She reached out, her fingers gently brushing against his cheek. "Boldasarre," she said, her voice soft but firm, "I think it's time we had a talk."
Boldasarre swallowed hard, his heart pounding in his chest as he looked up at her. "Ellustrya, I..." he began, but she silenced him with a finger to his lips.
"Not here," she said, glancing around at the other adventurers. "Let's find somewhere more private."
With that, she took his hand and led him away from the camp, her trousers still down and her royal knickers on full display. Boldasarre followed, his mind reeling from the events of the day.
As they walked, Ellustrya's grip on his hand tightened. "Boldasarre," she said, her voice barely above a whisper, "I know this whole situation has been... unusual, to say the least. But I need you to know that my feelings for you are real."
Boldasarre's heart skipped a beat at her words. He looked at her, his eyes searching her face for any sign of deception. But all he saw was sincerity and a hint of vulnerability.
"Ellustrya," he said, his voice hoarse with emotion, "I feel the same way. I know this bet has been ridiculous, but it's also made me realize how much I care for you."
Ellustrya smiled, her eyes shining with unshed tears. She leaned in, her lips brushing against his in a soft, tender kiss. Boldasarre's arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her closer as he deepened the kiss.
When they finally broke apart, both were breathless and flushed. Ellustrya rested her forehead against his, a small smile playing at the corners of her mouth.
"So," she said, her tone playful, "does this mean I win the bet?"
Boldasarre chuckled, shaking his head in amusement. "I think we both won," he said, his voice low and husky.
With that, they made their way back to the camp, hand in hand, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. Together.
