BXBX NOVEL Chapter 29 Traveling To Cholden
"From what I know the beasts they use provide fast travel so we should arrive by nightfall." Shaman really did not know but wanted to reassure Elysia.
"I hope so" Elysia had grabbed a hold of Shaman's hand as they finally arrived.
They approached the reception desk and asked for a carriage for Cholden, the man pointed at a carriage and so they went over.
"Excuse me, we would like to go to Cholden" Shaman asked the man who was dozing off and looked like an old farmer.
"oh? that will be 2 gold." The man offered his hand to take payment.
Shaman dropped 2 coins and hopped in the back.
"How long will the trip take?" Shaman asked this as it seemed like certain people went to different cities.
"We will arrive just before nightfall, this baby here is fast so we will get there in no time." Shaman was relieved it would not take long but it was just hitting the afternoon so it was at least 7 hours of travel.
"Elysia this trips going to take a while but at least we arrive before night" Shaman had leaned into Elysia's shoulder.
"Well at least it looks like it will just be me, you and Wolfy" Elysia had started pat Shaman's head and felt like she was going to die of cuteness.
The carriage started to move and we're now off. Luckily they were in an enclosed carriage so as long as they were not loud they could do what they wanted.
"Can I use your lap as a pillow?" Shaman. turned her head to Elysia and could see her nodding. Shaman fell in her lap with a smile as the rumors of the lap pillow were true.
Elysia also continued to pat Shaman and her ears, Shaman did not resist and enjoyed the sensation of her ears being pat. She curled up into Elysia with a satisfied smile as their journey continued.
***
Guards arrived at the scene as they could see that there were many marks of fighting and blood, there was also a melted dagger and many weapons.
"What happened here, judging from the weapons here, there were at least over 30 people here that have died." The guard examined the amount of weapons but then he saw a coat in the middle that was red and gold. The guard approached it and spotted the insignia telling him a noble had been killed.
"Boys, One of the major noble families of this city has been killed. Please take this insignia and inform the family of his death, launch an investigation on what happened and why there were no guards at the gate." The guard ordered his men and so they got to work.

The carriage was moving at a good pace and Shaman had fallen asleep on Elysia's lap.
'I hope we can find a place to stay when we arrive, I would rather not stay in an inn.' Elysia sighed a little.
'At least I have Shaman.' Elysia smiled lovingly at Shaman who was now fast asleep on her lap.
'I will say her fur is so soft I cannot stop patting it, I might be addicted to it. Do I dare touch her tail but I feel like that would wake her up.' But before she could make up her mind the carriage stopped suddenly causing Elysia to catch Shaman from falling off. Shaman had woken up rubbing her eyes.
"Shit we got bandits!" The old man yelled to tell the girls the situation.
Shaman shot awake hearing those words and looked at Elysia.
"Looks like I get a little exercise, lets just hope they are not that strong." Shaman then headed out of the carriage to see the situation and could see a group of 5 people with knives.
'this looks cliché and typical.' Shaman was a little baffled by how stereotypical this situation was.
"Hey Elysia, can you just use your bow and shoot one in the leg." Shaman thought if they injure one of them they would run away.
"okay~" Elysia jumped out and used a weak arrow shot and hit one right in the leg causing the man to scream in pain. The other bandits looked at her with fear and picked up the wounded man and ran away, they did not realize that there were higher level adventurers as usually the trail was used for low security supplies.
"Thank you girls." The old man gave a small bow to the girls.
"No worries." Shaman liked the man as he did not take advantage of them and left them alone so she was willing to show some respect. They both entered back in the carriage and since Shaman was awake Elysia took the opportunity to ask.
"Can I touch your tail?" Elysia looked a little dejected as she thought she would get rejected.
"hmm? of course, I'll make it 3." Shaman then released all her tails and presented it to Elysia. Elysia's eyes widened and she went in to pat them.
"Oh my god, they are so soft and fluffy, I wish I could pat them forever." Elysia was having a blissful time but Shaman was trying not to moan as it was quite pleasurable for her tail to be patted in such a way. After a minute Shaman finally got used to it and the patting became more of a satisfying feeling than a pleasurable one.
'Good thing that man from the guild got his teeth punched in because this feeling is paralyzing.' Shaman remembered when her tail was about to be violated and knocked out a man for it.
After 5 minutes Shaman asked Elysia to stop as it was getting a little too much for Shaman. Elysia woke up from her excited daze and awkwardly laughed as she was completely lost in Shaman's tails.
"haha, sorry Shaman." Elysia was scratching her head with a weak smile.
"It's okay, so how about you sleep on my lap because I'm sure you are curious about what it feels like." Shaman retracted her 2 tails and patted her lap to tell Elysia to come sleep on it.
Elysia smiled brightly causing Shaman's heart to tighten a little. Elysia went over and planted herself on Shaman's lap.
'Now let's see how soft your fur is.' Shaman had a grin and started to pat Elysia's ears like she would her 2 pet dogs at home.
Elysia who was surprised at Shaman technique caused her sensitivity to touch to overcome her letting out a small moan.
"ah~" She quickly covered her mouth but Shaman laughed and continued to attack Elysia.
Elysia after trying hard to resist finally got used to it and started to fall asleep. Shaman continued to pat her slowly till she fell asleep.
'I will say her fur is beautiful, it is really hard to stop patting.' Shaman had to internally fight with herself to stop as she wanted to use the attribute points she got and use the wheel of fortune she got.
[Attributes]
Vitality: 95 -> 100
Agility: 155
Intelligence: 140 -> 150
Strength: 150
Dexterity: 80 -> 100
Defense: 75 -> 100
[HP: 1000/1000]
[MP: 1500/1500]
[Slicing tornado lvl 1 -> 2]
After allocating the 60 points she got and using her 1 skill level up, she asked the system to open the wheel of fortune. In her mind a wheel had formed and could see vague names for rewards. Without wasting time she spun it.
The Wheel had finally stopped and had landed on an item.
[Ring of marriage]
[rarity: legendary]
[Give this to a loved one to bound them to you, any sexual act against them that they do not allow will activate a shield stopping any advances]
Shaman's lips twitched when reading the description and could not help but think that the system is toying with it.
'YOU BASTARD SYSTEM, WE ONLY JUST STARTED DATING AND YOU ARE GIVING ME THIS REALLY GOOD SHIT!' Shaman screams internally and raises a middle finger at the system as she did not want to marry Elysia yet and was way too soon to do so.
[hehe~]
'YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE!' Shaman screamed even more as the response told the wheel was rigged and just an elaborate way to give her this ring.
Shaman sighed in defeat and looked at Elysia.
'I guess I can put it on her finger, it is not like I have to propose yet.' Reassuring herself she put the ring on Elysia's finger and a system notification went off.
[User Elysia is now bounded to Shaman]
[Item affects are now in use]
'Well at least she is protected in some regard.' Despite her rude words to the system she was rather happy with it, she only had the issue with the system as it was pushing their relationship and Shaman wanted to take it slow and not jump to marriage.
'Oh well, let's hope she does not check it and just accepts it.' Shaman leaned back in her chair and started to pat Elysia again.
