Ch.81A Little More! Massage Paradise

After gathering all the necessary materials for her work from the market and blacksmith, Mina shut herself in her room as soon as she returned to the inn.

Since crafting magical tools requires intense concentration, she didn’t want any interruptions, and said she wouldn’t leave her room except for meals.

We agreed not to visit or knock on Mina’s door to let her focus on her work, as she mentioned it would be completed by tomorrow evening if there were no complications.

“You said we’d experiment with the poisonous mushroom alloy as soon as the magical tool is finished, right?”

“Yes. Phyllis has already ordered the alchemist’s workshop to extract toxins from the mushrooms she bought in bulk from the apothecary, so tomorrow afternoon we can pick them up and hand them over to Mina.”

“I hope the alloy made with color poison dye and silver is the metal Will is looking for… Hmm, A pair. That’s it for me.”

“Ah, am I last place? I had one card left. What a shame.”

Having found a deck of playing cards in the room drawer, we were sitting around the table playing card games.

The composition of the cards was identical to those used on Earth, and we discovered that games like five-card poker and blackjack existed here too.

While Jessica and I were relatively familiar with card games, Seti and Phyllis were not, so we decided to play the easy-to-learn One Card game to strengthen our friendship. After about 30 minutes, with the condition that the loser would grant one request from each of the other three players, the One Card tournament ended with Jessica, Seti, and Phyllis discarding all their cards in that order, leaving me as the loser.

“Now it’s time for everyone to make one request of Will, who came in last place~ Shall we start with Phyllis, who came in third?”

“Clap, clap, clap, clap~”

“Hmm, what’s the scope of possible requests?”

“Property transfers and forced sexual demands are NG, but anything within city ordinances and not violating taboos between races is fine.”

Taboos between races would include, for example, if Phyllis had come in last place, I couldn’t ask her to remove her tights in front of me.

Since we’re trying to have fun within reasonable boundaries, I don’t think any extreme requests will come up.

“Hmm, in that case, that thing you did when we went to Evernight Mountain… what was it called? Massage?”

“Ah, you want another leg massage? No problem, lie down on the bed over there.”

“W-wait! This time I’d like to receive it without wearing tights, like Jessica or Seti.”

“Um… I don’t mind, but didn’t you say elven women shouldn’t show their bare legs?”

“That’s right. So Will, please wear a blindfold. Then I’ll remove my tights, and you can massage me that way.”

“What?”

Hasn’t the level of the request suddenly increased!?

Miss Jessica, the One Card champion and referee, is this statement from Phyllis OK? Oh, it is OK?

Phyllis’s “request” was deemed acceptable under tournament rules, so with Jessica and Seti’s help, I was blindfolded.

“Will is all ready.”

“Ah, understood. I’ll prepare too.”

After Phyllis’s shy-sounding voice, I heard the soft sound of thin fabric sliding against skin.

What a peculiar situation—blindfolded, surrounded by women, listening to another woman undressing right in front of me.

And next, I’ll have to massage Phyllis’s bare legs relying only on my sense of touch without being able to see.

*Gulp*

Is the sound of swallowing particularly loud because my eyes are closed?

Hoping no one else heard that sound, I waited for a moment when I heard the three of them talking.

“Phyllis, your legs are so pretty.”

“I know. There’s not an ounce of excess fat, but they don’t look skinny either. And her skin is so white.”

“D-don’t stare so intently. While the taboo against showing bare legs only applies to men, I’m not used to exposure in general.”

“Why are you so nervous already? You’re about to let Will touch these legs freely on the bed, aren’t you?”

“F-freely!? No, I wasn’t planning to ask for that long…”

“Will, come over here. I’ll help you.”

Taking Seti’s hand, I climbed onto the bed, and Jessica and Seti each took one of my arms and guided me to Phyllis’s calves on either side.

I’m guessing I was positioned kneeling between Phyllis’s legs as she lay face down on the bed with her legs spread.

“A-are you ready, Phyllis?”

“Yes, I’m counting on you.”

“Don’t tense your legs so much, just relax. I’m starting.”

“Hnngh…!”

With my eyes covered, I use only my hands to massage Phyllis’s slender legs.

As I thought when massaging her through the tights, Phyllis’s legs are thin and long with elegant curves.

They’re sufficiently slender, but her thighs have just the right amount of flesh—a different feeling from Jessica’s legs, which look erotic with their proper curves, or Seti’s healthy legs that feel firm with muscle when touched, though it’s not obvious from the outside.

“Mmh… aah… hnng…”

As I worked from her ankles up her calves to her thighs and back down to massage each foot, Phyllis seemed to relax, letting out short moans while comfortably surrendering to my touch.

While making another round up to her thighs, I heard Jessica’s voice.

“You’re only going halfway up her thigh? It extends much higher, you know.”

“Oh, really? It’s hard to judge leg length with a blindfold on. Thanks, Jessica.”

With a height of 174cm and a model-like figure, Phyllis has legs that are even longer than mine.

I thought I had gone up to a risky point, but apparently I hadn’t even reached halfway up her thigh.

Since I’ve started this massage, I should make sure she fully enjoys it… With that thought, I enthusiastically massaged upward, and the next moment, my thumb lightly brushed against something soft like fabric.

“Eek!?”

“Whoa, what’s wrong, Phyllis?”

“N-nothing. I’ve just never been touched by someone else in that area, so…”

“You startled me. Just relax, I’m almost done.”

I seem to have touched a rather dangerous area, but I continue the massage, pretending not to notice to avoid embarrassing Phyllis further.

I slowly work my way back down from her thighs, through her calves, and massage her feet once more before ending the massage.

A massage is normally physically demanding, but this time it felt more mentally exhausting.

“Good job, Will.”

“Now that she’s dressed, can I take off the blindfold?”

“Ah, could you stay like that for a moment? Phyllis, come over here…”

“Huh? What is it? What’s going on?”

While I was confused about what was happening, I felt someone climb onto the bed in place of Phyllis.

“My turn next. Do it for me like you did for Phyllis.”

“Seti’s request is also a massage? Alright. Then…”

“No. Keep the blindfold on.”

“Huh? Why?”

“You seemed more focused with the blindfold on. I want to experience that too.”

“Well… alright. Lie down and relax.”

Even blindfolded, I shouldn’t mistake Jessica’s or Seti’s leg length.

Besides, Seti is wearing tight, short leggings—spats, I think they’re called?—so if I stop my hands around where I feel the fabric, I won’t make the same mistake as with Phyllis.

“Nyaaah…”

Seti quickly relaxed as I started massaging from her calves upward.

Jessica and Phyllis seem to be whispering near the entrance of the room, as I can faintly hear them muttering.

I can’t make out what they’re saying… but Seti might be able to hear them.

‘…Huh?’

I feel like I’ve gone far enough up her thighs, but I don’t feel any fabric.

I thought I couldn’t possibly misjudge Seti’s leg length, but maybe I underestimated the blindfolded situation.

Thinking this, I moved my hands a bit higher up her thigh and touched a soft, rounded hill.

“Mmm!”

“Eh? What’s this… a butt!?”

Not understanding what was happening, I hastily removed the blindfold with one hand and looked down to see Seti’s naked brown lower body spread out before me.

Right beside her were her neatly folded spats and underwear that she had been wearing until just before the massage.

As I stared at Seti, comprehending the situation, she gently moved her tail to cover the embarrassing area between her legs and averted her gaze.

“…Massage my butt too.”

“Phyllis didn’t go this far, you know?”

“…Phyllis was third place. I’m second place.”

“I see.”

So she’s saying that since her card game ranking is higher than Phyllis’s, she deserves a better reward.

Seti’s argument makes sense. But if we follow that logic—

“Oh my, then as first place, I should be able to make an even more amazing request, right?”

“Since it’s still daytime, I’ll settle for a full-body massage.”

“Hmm~ That depends on Will’s patience, doesn’t it?”

Seeing Jessica wink with a devilish smile, I was momentarily flustered, but Seti tapped the back of my hand with her tail, demanding my attention.

While I’ve always said I’m OK with seductive temptations from my beloved partners, I don’t want to become a depraved man who rolls around with women at every opportunity, so I’ll summon my iron willpower and focus solely on the massage.
