My Parasite Skill System - Chapter 149
Well.
In the end, this carriage ride was just another one of me and Old’s peaceful escapades.
And it was just yet another obstacle standing in our way we had to pass.
That obstacle was an easy one, thankfully. All we had to do is wait, confined in that luxurious carriage … for quite a long time, I’ll admit it, but it was still cool with us.
That human princess had offered us some relatively good tribute. And we were simply on our way to it. Our next location.
And this was a real location, this time about. For it wasn’t high, high in the trees like it first was. It wasn’t also on a battlefield like it kind of was for some time.
Well, a true location, right?
And all we had to do was to endure patiently, while we would soon be arriving at the place.
That carriage ride; it was very peaceful, at that.
There were no cries ranging out around us like there was back in the woods (Old wasn’t technically with me, but well). Nor was there any wild orc up to the funny task of half-destroying our mount or anything.
It was just one peaceful ride, yes. And in this very sense, it changed a lot.
Everything went fine.
Knowing me, you’d probably say that it wouldn’t be so fun this way, since there was basically no playing around … but, boy; I sure was tired, after all this.
Or maybe I simply felt like being idling in that luxurious carriage all the long … I wouldn’t really know–do you happen to know?
No, you don’t.
I was asleep, after all! Sleeping folks don’t know anything, as per the number one sleeping rule, yes.
And then came the moment where I would finally open my eyes.
The sun rays didn’t take long before they greeted me with their annoying lighting.
Then I replied with a “Yawn~”
We’re still in the carriage … but it’s stopped? Hm? Hmm… My head is still on that big sister’s comfy pillow-thighs … but where are we?
My face was an interrogative one, and glancing real quickly around, I couldn’t really make out of anything concerning our location.
Not like I could sort of glance outside really quickly with that [Mana Perception] skill, hm.
“Slept well, my little man?” and then I noticed these two interrogative eyes which were set upon me from above.
Would they be telling me where were we?
Slightly frowning, “Mmm … we’re here…?” when I also had to take on an interrogative tone.
Trying to further expand and widen my eyes, opening them but somehow still narrowing them because of the beating sunlight coming from the opened windows; it was at this moment that I could see and comprehend everything went all fine and right.
“We have … dun, dun, dun!… arrived, already, yay!”
“‘That so, big sis’…?”
And up till that point, my head was still and sound, always resting on these soft thighs … it was with great regret that I had to part with them, “miss you already, thighs…” I whispered to myself, still somehow lying comfortably on them.
I really wasn’t willing to part with them. When the princess giggled: “Yes, we have!”
“Arrived … as in, arrived ‘arrived’? We’ve arrived home?”
“Yes, yes. You’re new home. Want to see it? Wake up at once. Uncle already has gone inside with the little lady.”
Oh? Is that so? It’s true they aren’t here, hm. And I should be moving, too, if they’re gone already.
And noticing that, I began straightening my back at once.
Oh, too quick, too quick.
Feeling all tired and dizzy over my head–her hands came behind my shoulders and drove me up gently,
“There, there, don’t raise yourself up too quickly; you don’t want to be feeling all dizzy and funny, do you?”
“Mm … right, but too late though … and wait … poor me, I feel so dizzy! I now have no choice but to fall back onto those fluffy thighs … ah~”
And I let myself fall back on them.
“Oh~ poor you!” the princess added, pleasantly.
“And also, isn’t it the first time I’ve slept in this form?… it feels so off, for some reason…” but seeing how her lips parted with one another … hesitated, then made no comment on this,
I went on strongly, “And as such, I do indeed feel like stretching myself!”
And that was true, anyhow. Also was true that my body felt a little flat. But the idea came just naturally to me, no worries: I just had to stretch that body, yah!
Immediately after I fell back onto the thighs of cloud–she let out a little squeak, “H–hey, be still, what are you doing, huhuhu!”
But it was too late, muahahah. I’d gotten back on my comfy thighs. And abruptly pulling my shoulders behind, I very quickly proceeded to be wiggling and jiggling around on them like one little worm discovering the wonders of a rainy day.
That, and I was an ace at doing this, I’m sure.
“Ahh~~~”
“Pfft … kindly stop messing with me, now, my boy. You’ve got to go, hey.”
But I ignored that! That body sure didn’t seem convenient to hang around all the time, when I thought about it … right?
And deciding that, because of this very reason, I’d need to give myself some good old parasite time, like back in the days of youth–I also felt like stretching myself even more…!
–When suddenly, this urge to stretch and wiggle it all took over myself…
With even more harshness and eagerness than before, “Not quite good enough though, big sis!!!” I proceeded on doing that again.
“Hahaha. Come on, you’re messing with my robe, hey!”
Going like a crazy worm for the following next seconds going by, I’d be tormenting the princess, hehe.
Eventually, I’d stop, though.
“I’m good~”
‘Cause I was stretched very well, and ready to go.
“About time.”
“Yes, about time–and so, where’re the two others?”
Stretching not all my muscles this time about, but my back up, I sat normally on the bench, “Ah, and you’re still with that white cape of yours, huh.”
“Hmm, yes, naturally, since we’re in the city. Remember the reason, right?”
“I do, I do.”
“–your uncle and the little lady, mm-hm, well, they’ve gone inside, already.”
“Oh … yes. I saw, and I’d figured that already.”
Their bench was empty, after all. Of course they were inside of the house, already.
Our bench still was full of us, though.
And so, sitting my butt correctly and with manners, now, on this very bench, I let my elbows slide to my laps, and started to think.
The others were gone. Old and the elven princess. Did that mean she had woken up?
Hardly so.
She wouldn’t wake up soon. That was Old’s appraisal for you. She wouldn’t wake up given the state she was in.
But anyhow, they’ve gone inside, already.
“The mansion, right? You called it a mansion, big sister Elina. Is that … ‘this’?”
I couldn’t make out of it in its entirety, but from inside of this carriage … this new carriage … as the door was way tinier, I could see a little of it.
My index finger pointed in that direction, to the right.
From this little bit that I could see of it, it sure seemed appealing to me already.
Not like this carriage we’re in right now.
Oh, and yes, did I mention we underwent a change of carriage?
