Chapter 49: Cathedral, my love!!
WHAT IS HAPPENING?!
"*sniff* Ahhh, this smell. THIS SMELL IS...!"
"Eeek!"
SOMEONE!! I KNOW THIS IS RICH COMING FROM ME BUT HELP ME GET THIS PERVERT OFF OF ME!!!
“And these clothes! I can feel her in these clothes too!”
"EH?! STOOOOP!!!"
SHE IS TRYING TO UNDRESS ME!! Wait…no…she is not…she is rubbing herself on them…
STILL!!
I can't use my powers to get out of this because I do not want to attract that kind of attention and I have an idea who she is, buuuut...!!
"No way I am stopping! You were late to arrive, so this is a just remuneration!"
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!”
“I wonder if the tights and the underwear are like that too…”
“DON'T TRY TO LIFT MY DRESS!!"
"Then, I will go for the chest!"
"Of course, you should go for the chest! It’s the best! I mean…no!!!"
GAAH!! NERINNE!! DIDN'T YOU SAY THAT THESE THINGS WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO ME?!
"I said accidents, dear~~."
NERINNE?!
"I mean, she had to use her resources to get you inside the Capital without a problem. She even promised to obtain a high-quality inn for you to stay. So, I wanted to return the favor in a way."
WHAT WAY?!
"Oh! They are softer and bigger than mine!”
“Of course, they are! Mine are superior! Although, yours have a nice shape and size too.”
“Really? Thank you for the compliment, almost no one compliments my appearance, you know.”
“No prob—! Wait, that’s not what I wanted to say, dammit!”
“Aaah…the smell is more intense! This is heavenly!"
"And stop sniffing me!!"
She really is just choosing when to listen to me, huh?! Nerinne, what’s her deal?!
"You see...she is one of the mortals closer to me and that has made her develop a certain...liking to me, dear. Whenever she prays, she asks me to descend and do many activities with her. Like sharing a cup of tea, playing boardgames, sharing a bath and even having a sleepover. Oh, and now that I mention it, there was that one time when she spoke of enjoying some skinship while breathing heavily.”
THAT IS SOMETHING WAY DEEPER THAN JUST 'LIKING'!!
"But I have my duties and the rules, so nothing like that ever happened. Then, after convincing her of letting me repay the favor, she said that she wanted to spend some time with you as a reward. She also asked me to put a bit of my essence on you and she would be satisfied. Ah, but don’t worry, despite everything, she is a good girl!”
Yeah, mhm, riiight.
Also…that perfume…
That is why it smelled so familiar!!
"Indeed. I genuinely think that it is a fair trade, my dear. After all, you get to experience some ecchi moments with someone in a nun outfit, which is something that is on your list. And she gets to be with you for a bit. It is as you say, a ‘win-win’ scenario, right? But it seems your little detour to help Erevain's sister made her a…little impatient."
Oh, of course. Then, as a fellow pervert, I might as well enjoy it!
"See? I knew you would understand, dear~~."
AS IF!! Well, I do…BUT STILL!
A LITTLE IMPATIENT?! SHE IS PANTING! HER EYES HAVE THAT DOUJIN SHINE!! AND WORST OF ALL SHE IS DROOLING!
"Oh, chosen hero! You shall endure it then! For the sake of this holy quest!"
Don’t try to act as a proper goddess now, you pervert heroine!!
"We have arrived your Holiness."
"Ah, that's a shame and I was just getting comfortable."
"Using my breasts as pillows, a part of me approves but...grrrrr. Now I know how a certain shopkeeper lich felt like..."
"Heeeh~~? You know a lich that is also a shopkeeper? That sounds interesting! Neee~~, you shall tell me all about it in bed! Chandler, prepare the teleport seal to my chambers."
"At once, your Holiness."
"No way! I am getting off thi—!"
"[Teleport]!"
Whyyyyyyyyy?!!

"..."
I am now in a luxurious room, one that is filled with what I believe are artistic interpretations of Nerinne's appearance.
It seems she was not kidding when she said that some only managed to see her as pure light with eyes, since there are some paintings that depict her that way.
Although, there are others where she appears as a woman and yet, they don't have that much of a resemblance except for, you guessed it, the eyes.
Anyways…
My hair is thankfully not a mess.
But I can’t say the same about my clothes, they are pretty much ruffled…
Nothing some magic can’t fix, but still.
And I she stopped trying to see my underwear back in the carriage, so no problems there.
Hm?
'But Auros, wouldn't you enjoy having an H-scene with the nun of nuns of this isekai? It seems out of character for you to be this reluctant...' you say?
Oi.
I am not that thirsty of a weeb!
Ok, maybe a bit, but that is not the point!!!
Besides! It all depends on the context! Context!!!
If she had appeared and introduced herself in her 'Holiness' mode, showing that distinct air of a holy onee-san with a soft and pious voice, then…umu, that would have been nice.
Like, imagine this.
After talking and doing what we had to do for the day, we would have gone our own separate ways for the night, but then a knock on the door would disturb my nightly preparations…
Then, I would open the door and find her looking at me with eyes full of desire, making me just squirm at the classic gap-moe!
In her soft voice she would tell me all that she wanted to do to me and then...! Then...! Then, I would have accepted right away!!! No questions asked!
But nope!
It didn’t go that way!
"..."
Ah, by the way...WHY THE HECK AM I BEING USED AS A BESTO WAIFU BODY PILLOW?!
You know what? I’m just going to get free from this paralyzing spell and teleport out of here.
So, without further ado, mana of mine, please overwhelm this pitiful spell.
"Hm? Oh no, you don't! We still have some time!"
"Well, I decided that there is no time left!"
"That is not for you to decide, Lady Auros! Oh, Goddess hear my prayers..."
Don't you hear her prayers, Nerinne!!
"...and restrain the one reflected in my eyes!"
No! Do not restrain me!! I repeat! Do not restrain me you Goddess!!!
"[Holy Restraint]!"
STOP IT WITH THE LIGHT SHOW!! I CAN TOTALLY SEE YOU!!
"Fufufu~~~."
THIS GODDESS!!! DON'T YOU—!!
STOP IT WITH THAT SMUG SMILE!!
*BZZZ-TIN-CLICK*
OH, YOU DIDN'T! PERVYNNEEEEE!!
"There! You won’t be able to break out from this, no matter how strong you are. After all, this is a spell with the power of the Goddess infused in it. Now…I’m going to enjoy this.”
Ah...I give up...
"Hmm?"
"What? You seem to be surprised."
Says the blonde woman that is just…hugging me tightly, and nothing more. Well, she did have her face fully buried in my breasts before she spoke and now, she’s peeking out from them.
Also, did I mention that she looks like a tanned gyaru? A gal?
Because that is how she looks.
"Well, I was just wondering if you were going to be doing anything more besides hugging me. If you catch my meaning..."
I am still a bit out of it, so I may, or may not sound edge alter enough, but I don't care...
Her eyes widen in complete and genuine surprise before she starts shaking her head quickly...all while it is still buried in my breasts.
"Goddess, no. I would not commit such crime and offense to the Goddess' teachings. Carnal love is only for those willing."
That is the holy onee-sama tone I wanted, but it loses all validity with her being where she is...
"Then, why play around with my breasts?"
"Skinship, teehee~!”
"That dummy laugh does not suit you!"
"No? Strange, it is well liked among my acquaintances..."
"What are you doing looking that dejected while buried in my breasts?! You should be happy! They are the best breasts besides the ones of the Goddess!!"
"...!"
Ah crap...I said that out loud, didn't I...?
"You...! You...! You have been with the Goddess?!"
"Stop holding me that tightly!! I am not going to run away you know!!"
"Tell me! Tell me! How does she look like? Does she really have that divine voice that melts your heart when hearing it? Is she soft? Does she really smell like this? *sniiiif*"
"Don't start sniffing me again!!!"
This woman!!
Aaah!! I want to move, but I can't!!
These things tying my hands and feet are tight too!!
Although…the image of my besto waifu being restrained like this while being sniffed at...hot...aaah so hot...
And with a tanned gyaru nun…
Oh yes…
Wait! I can't get aroused by that right now!! Let alone awaken to a new fetish!!
"Is she…is she alright?"
Huh…?
What is this sudden change in her mood?
"Is she crying more? Less? Is she hurting?"
She is...truly worried.
Like…really worried.
"I...we...we are trying our best fighting the Draconic menace, but I do not know if we are truly doing well or if she is protecting us from a darker truth. But maybe I am mistaken. Maybe…I am worrying too much. After all, I am but a mortal. Even if I am the closest to the Goddess…no, I guess I am the second closest now…”
Sumanai.
"Sorry about that."
She shakes her head, again.
She really is not coming out of there, is she?
Well, I wouldn't come out of there too if I was in her position, so there’s that.
"No, you do not have to apologize for that. It actually makes me happy, since that means I have someone that is more or less like me. And that also means that the Goddess has someone that can be that close to her. I thought that was going to be me, but if she is happy, then I am happy too. It’s just that every time I talked to her, I could not help but feel that there was a certain sadness in her voice…and even…frustration.”
Why do I feel that I just NTR'd this woman?
It feels...dirty...
What?
NTR is life?
You evil monster!!
I thought we were friends!!!
Still…
"..."
Those thoughts have been worrying her that much, huh...
"Oi, didn't I say that you should be happy while being buried in my breasts?"
She peeks out from them again and she tries to smile, even if her eyes are a bit teary.
Now, I get it.
This is why you did all of this, isn’t it, Nerinne?
You should have just told me...
"Haaa…you leave me no choice then. Hear me and be marveled!"
She looks at me with expectant eyes...and I can also feel her breath in my cleavage...
"The Goddess, Nerinne, she is really beautiful. She has rose gold hair that reaches all the way down to her hips. Her proportions are perfect, and her eyes are a lighter tone of gold compared to mine. Her skin is creamy white, but sometimes she will show herself with a tan that makes her look beautiful, like a sunset."
Her overall expression is starting to lighten up again as I say this. Good.
"Her voice is just...truly divine. I am eternally grateful of being blessed with listening to her for life. I can honestly tell you that I will never get tired of her voice. No matter how many years pass."
She nods excitedly while making my breasts jiggle...but let’s not mind about that and just continue.
"Yes, she is soft. Her hugs are warm, her caresses are entrancing, and her lap pillows are unbeatable. Also, she indeed smells like my perfume..."
*sniiiiiif*
And there she goes sniffing me again!!!
If this keeps up, I’m really going to awaken to something I don’t want to be awakened to!!!
"A-And she is alright. She is doing her best too. Yes, she is worried. And yes, she has cried. She is hurt when she sees her people die or suffer, but she is also laughing and having fun. She is someone who can act like a complete nerd at one moment and be the complete image of a Goddess in the next.”
There, she is really smiling now.
"I do not know if things are going well, but I do know that they will get better from now on. I have given my word to the Goddess and I intend to keep it. So, as I said, stop it with being sad. At least enjoy it."
She looks me in the eye and then she starts…laughing?
"Hahaha...you pass. You completely pass."
"Eh?"
"I apologize, but I was testing you. I wanted to see who was the person that the Goddess had chosen. Even if that is more than enough qualification. And you have passed with flying colors. Because even after all the things I did to you, you never resorted to violence or intimidation. You never even got furious, just annoyed and you even complimented me. And all of that is quite surprising, since you are powerful enough to break through my paralyzing spell and even force me to use holy magic. So…I am totes pleased to meet you at last, Lady Auros~! I am Ludovica Aldert~. Although, I believe you already know about me.”
Yes, she is saying all of that while still using my breasts as pillows...
This head of the church...
"Then, does that mean you can stop with this?"
"Hmm? Do I? I mean, it is really comfy here. So soft…and warm. Ahh…so nice. And the smell too. You also just gave me permission to enjoy it, so I will.”
"Why do I feel that that talk about the test was just a part of it and you only really wanted to smell the Goddess' essence...?"
"Mmm...I think I am going to take a little nap here. Tell me all about that lich shopkeeper when I wake up..."
"Oi. At least get these things off! I won’t leave! Hnn! W-Where are you squeezing?!"
"Zzzzzz...."
"Oi!"
Dammit! Squeezing my butt too...
Being used as a dakimakura by the female head of the church...check...
I am so getting my revenge, Nerinne...
To be continued...(cue ad for Auros H dakimakura and Non-H dakimakura!! Pre-order the 2-pack now and get an Erevain plushie as bonus!!)
Glossary entry #21:
Gap-moe: A nun being actually lewd. A seemingly lewd person being the purest. The toughest, meanest looking person being someone with a heart of gold that loves kittens. That contradiction, that going out of character, that is gap moe!!
Gyaru: Japanese slang for “Gal”. They are usually depicted in anime as outgoing girls that have bleached hair and tans, although the neither are absolutely necessary and sometimes their skin naturally tanned. They use make up, have manicured hands, and never follow the uniform code of their school. They are sometimes the bullies, but sometimes they aren’t. Sometimes they are frivolous girls, and sometimes they are actually hardworking girls with a simple desire to express themselves.
NTR: An unholy genre of manga that only true villains and heretics enjoy. If you know or see someone who enjoy it, get the flamer, the heavy flamer and proceed to purify them. Besides that, NTR stands for “netorare”, a term that can be said to mean “cheating” “adultery” and so on. It usually depicts someone’s significant other being stolen by another person, be it by the classic ways or…mind break. Truly unholy.
Dakimakura: Body pillow with a pillowcase that has an anime girl on it, one that usually is in different positions for each side. Depending on the pillow, such positions can be lewd or wholesome, as well as the level nudity such anime girl print has. Here’s a protip, don’t buy them…used.
