Chapter 7 – True Meaning of Divine Acts Assist

Because this was a village with a higher floating population, that is, more people are coming and going than the actual people residing in it, there wasn’t much of a need for individual temples like those in Lambda.

Instead, they have built a rather large shrine where all Gods and Goddesses are enshrined together.

I prayed there and was able to communicate with Xaneela, and the topic of conversation went something like this.

《Hey, Alf, do you know the difference between doing a divine act and having sexual intercourse?》

(Hmm… the words are different?)

《Come on. Seriously?》

[What difference does it make?]

《Nfufufu. You’ll find out soon enough.》

I honestly didn’t understand what Xaneela was saying back there, but it didn’t take long before I realized what she truly meant.

○●○●

“It’s so nice to be young.”

One of the women at the same table, who was drinking and eating with us, murmured enviously as she watched Greg’s back as he left the diner with the two women.

She was Arlene, I think.

She is a tall, sharp-looking person who accompanied us on our mission to defeat the goblins.

Her wavy green hair is very striking.

“What are you talking about? You’re still young, aren’t you?”

Connie, another volunteer soldier, consoles Arlene.

She is about the same height as Emmy.

She is a bit boyish with short light brown hair.

“Hmph… I will now allow myself to be comforted by a girl who’s only lived half of my life.”

By the way, Arlene is in her mid-thirties, and Connie is in her later teens.

Over here, you become an adult at an earlier age, so it’s okay for Connie to drink and get married.

“You’re saying something like that, but I can see you glancing at Alf with your eyes glistening since a while ago.”

“H-huh!? W-what are you talking about!? I am doing no such thing!”

Though while saying this, Arlene kept sending fluttering glances at me.

It’s not like she’s falling for me or anything, but maybe it’s because she was being influenced by my [Fascination].

As a result of having dealt with more than 100 people in the town of Lambda the other day, my level of [Divine Skill] has gone up.

So, from [Exchanging body fluids] to [Skin Contact], it has now evolved to the extent that attracting by [Conversation] is now possible.

In other words, if you converse with me, you’ll be in the mood for it.

“E-Even Alf wouldn’t be interested in an older woman like me, would he?”

I smiled as naturally as I could at Arlene, who peeked at me with trepidation.

“Of course, I would. If it’s a beautiful woman like Arlene, it would be a shame for me if I reject here.”

“Wheew~! Sis, you finally did it!”

Connie whistled like a perverted old man, and Arlene’s face turned red at once.

Emmy is with Ada today, by the way.

(I think I should do my duty at least once.)

Especially if the other party wants it, then it would be against my purpose in reincarnating in this world if I were to reject it, wouldn’t I?

O-of course, Emmy also consented to it, so I think she won’t rebuke me. After all, I’m just doing my job.

And since she also went to the trouble of sitting me down with a group of attractive women, it’s natural to think of doing “it” after that, right?

“If it’s okay with you two, you can visit my room after this….”

So I decided to have a delicious “meal” with both of them together.

However…

“Eh, I think I’ll pass.”

Connie refused.

“…?”

It was the first time I’d been rejected after coming here, so I was a little surprised.

“Eh? That’s unusual. Isn’t Alf your type?”

At Arlene’s words, Connie nods her head.

“Yes, he’s exactly my type. It’s just for some reason… I’m not feeling like it today? I don’t know.”

“Oh? Maybe it’s already that day for you?”

“Nu-uh. Today is a safe day for me.”

“If so, then that’s even more unusual.”

“Yeah, I wonder why? Even though I think he’s a pretty good man and all….”

As she said this, Connie, sitting next to me, touched my face and body curiously.

I also took her hand in mine.

“Is it perhaps you don’t want to do it together with Arlene? If that’s the case, then we can set the date….”

As I said this, I poured my magic power through her hand with all my might.

However…

“Ahaha, that would be ridiculous. After all, I’ve participated in several threesomes before, including with Arlene over there.”

…Connie doesn’t seem to be particularly affected by it.

So I pulled Connie’s body into my arms and brought her face close to mine.

This is pretty rude if it’s a normal conversation, but today is a drinking party, so we have an excuse to be a bit rowdy.

“If you don’t like it, just tell me.”

“Mfufufu, quite daring, aren’t we? But the more I stare at you, the hotter you look in my eyes. So, I wonder why? Mmchup.”

We put our lips together… and our tongues intertwined.

Of course, with [Fascination] in full swing.

“Puhaaa… fuuh… you’re quite good too, I tell ya….”

Connie said this with satisfaction.

However, she put her hand on my shoulder, moved away, and left her seat.

“Well, that’s it for me. Instead, why don’t you and this old lady over there have a good time? I’m sure she won’t refuse.”

Smiling as she said this, Connie stood tall and turned toward the stairs leading to the guest room.

“Now then, what should I do… ah, since today is a safe day, I wonder if I can join Greg and the others? I’ll bet it’ll be a lot of fun!”

Saying this, Connie walked away from me.

I see.

The [Divine Skill] is just a skill to promote procreation.

Perhaps Connie is not affected because she isn’t looking for a child yet.

After all, even the most effective way, “exchanging body fluids,” didn’t work on her.

“Uhm….”

When I turned around at the sound, I saw Arlene. She was looking at me with tears in her eyes and a sad expression on her face.

“I knew it… you prefer younger girls… no, it’s normal for men to like younger girls… compared to an old lady like me….”

Damn. I fucked up.

I was so upset by my first experience of [Divine Skill] not working that I forgot about her presence.

To resolve this, I turned to Arlene, hugged her, and kissed her lightly.

At that moment, I realized again of my mission.

And why it is my fault.

And it was Arlene who wanted me, not Connie.

“I was just trying to make sure I would be alone with you, Arlene. I’m sorry if it hurt you.”

I feel like a jerk with this excuse. However, what’s done is done.

And for my mistake, I have to fix it myself.

“No way… all that… just for me?”

Thankfully, though I don’t know if it’s part of the skill, Arlene was easily convinced.

The [Divine Skill] is a great tool. It’s almost like a cheat even.

But it also is self-aware that it must not be abused.

Truly a god-like blessing.

“Well, shall we go to your room then?”

“…okay.”
