After an unknown amount of time, the sound of the water in the hot spring finally subsided.
Shien soaked in the water and hugged Merica, who was panting slightly on top of him. He felt as if his bones were going to turn soft.
At this moment, Shien finally understood why so many men dreamed of getting intimate with the elves.
It was not only because the elves all had outstanding looks, but also because they were the favorites of nature and were blessed in many aspects.
That skin was as smooth as a pearl.
That delicate body was as soft as jade.
And that ethereal voice …
"Phew …"
Shien let out a breath of relief as if he was bathing in a spring breeze. He felt that his entire body was complete.
On the other hand, Merica only realized what had happened to her after she caught her breath.
So that's how it is. Is this what it means to be "eaten"?
Indeed, she had been eaten from top to bottom, and just as Shien had said, she did not seem to have suffered any superficial damage.
However, apart from the superficial damage, she had suffered a great loss in every other aspect, okay?
"Ugh …"
Merica pouted as if she felt very wronged and could not help but sob.
This girl actually cried.
"What … What's wrong? Merica? " Shien was startled by the sound of crying. He looked at Merica and saw her wronged expression. He immediately asked guiltily, "Why are you crying?"
Why am I crying?
Don't tell me you don't know the reason?
Merica pouted more and more, and her expression became more and more aggrieved. In the end, she could not help but sob.
"How could you do such a thing to me? Mr. Shien! "
Merica complained about Shien's behavior in an extremely aggrieved manner.
"Can't I?" Sean blinked his eyes and said innocently, "You're the one who invited me to eat you, aren't you?"
Can you be any more shameless?
At this moment, even someone as meek and delicate as Merica had the urge to bite someone.
However, with her personality, she was destined not to do such a thing. She could only speak while feeling wronged.
"What should I do now?" Merica was like an innocent girl who had just lost everything. She said anxiously, "If this matter is known by others, then I …"
Merica was extremely worried.
Shien did not take it seriously.
"If others know, then so be it." Shien held Merica in his arms and said casually, "This is nothing shameful."
Shien did not intend to hide all of this.
Since he had already devoured this little Elf girl, he would naturally marry Merica and let her have a blissful sex life, just like what he had just said.
He believed that with Rosie's attitude, she would accept Merica, right?
So, there was nothing to worry about at all.
However, Merica did of her.
"This is a shameful thing." Melica looked like she was about to cry again. "If my clansmen knew that I had lost my purity, they would definitely scold me to death."
"If my clansmen knew that I had lost my purity, they would definitely scold me to death."
Merica's words made Shien react. Sean frowned and said to Melica, "But you weren't forced to do it, so it shouldn't be considered as being defiled, right?"
Shien frowned and said to Merica, "But you were not forced to do it, so it shouldn't be considered as being defiled, right?"
Do you dare to go back and read the previous chapter before saying this?
Merica wanted to say that no, I was forced to do it.
But now that things had come to this, Merica did not want to accuse Shien anymore. She only felt uneasy and worried about her future.
"I … I will become a stain on the entire elven race!" Merica said fearfully, "So far, no one has ever lost their purity. I have become the first impure elf!"
"The first?" Shien was stunned.
No way?
Merica was the first elf to lose her virginity?
"Are you kidding me?"
Shien seriously doubted this.
"It's true!" Merica said fearfully and angrily, "Elves have always been long-lived, and they are naturally born. They do not need to give birth, nor can they be together with men of other races. So, when we elves fall in love, it usually doesn't end well. In the end, we will choose to silently dedicate and watch over our lover until he passes away. Then, we will return to the elven homeland to live the rest of our lives."
Under such circumstances, the elves who valued their purity would naturally not sacrifice their purity in exchange for a fruitless relationship.
Those who wanted the purity of elves would not obtain the admiration of elves.
Even if they encountered someone who wanted to use force, the moment the elves realized that they could not resist, they would decisively burn all of their vitality and commit suicide on the spot, turning their bodies into pure magic power and returning to the world. Thus, until now, there had never been a person who could obtain the purity of elves.
This was also one of the reasons why men of other races were so passionate about the elves.
After all, this was a group of high mountain flowers that no one had ever managed to get their hands on!
If he could succeed, wouldn't that prove that he was the most outstanding man in the world?
He could boast about it for the rest of his life!
However, when they tried to woo the elven girls, the elves who were wary of the males of other races wouldn't even give them the slightest chance. And when they tried to use force, the elves wouldn't hesitate to burn their life force and commit suicide. In this way, who would be able to succeed?
The only people who had a chance to get their hands on them were those with noble character and would not covet the bodies of elves.
However, even if the elves fell in love with these heroes, they still wouldn't choose to accept this relationship when considering the difference in lifespans between them. They would only choose to silently dedicate themselves to each other until the other had their own happiness, and only then would they leave on their own. As a result, these relationships would eventually turn into sorrow.
In this way, how could there be a situation where an elf would lose her virginity?
"In other words …" Shien pointed at his own nose in astonishment. "I've become the only man in this world who has pushed down an elf?"
This …
It seemed a little satisfying …?
However, Merica couldn't feel happy anymore.
"It's all Mr. Shien's fault." Merica was still anxious and fearful as she said, "What should I do now?"
Clearly, Merica was really at a loss and very afraid.
It was not because she had given her body to Shien that she felt fearful and fearful.
In fact, even if Shien did something that he shouldn't have done, Merica still did not blame Shien.
It was still the same saying. Elves who fell in love only knew how to selflessly contribute.
Even if they had to sacrifice themselves, they would still choose to accept it if it was really necessary. It was just that no elf had ever encountered such a situation before.
There had never been a hero like Sean who could make an elf fall in love with him, but he was not noble at all. On the contrary, he was a scumbag, and he actually ate up the little elf girl without saying a word.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for pure and holy elves to fall in love with such an evil man of another race.
However, Shien had done it.
From this point of view, Shien had to admit that he was the chosen one.
However, because no elf had ever done such a thing before, and no elf had ever offered their purity, Merica, who was the first to eat a crab, felt afraid and panicked.
She did not even dare to imagine how everyone in her race would view her if this matter was spread out.
Would they view her as a stain on the elven race?
Or would they think that she had abandoned herself and had no self-respect at all?
What should she do?
The confusion and fear of the future became Merica's only emotions, and she was truly afraid.
"What should I do? Mr. Shien! "
Merica, who was at her wit's end, could only hug Shien and cry again.
"Don't cry, don't cry. It's okay." Shien quickly wiped away the tears of this little girl. As he did so, he said, "Anyway, no one knows about this. Even if someone knows, am I an irresponsible person? Can't I just tell everyone that I'm going to marry you? "
Shien thought that Merica would feel relieved if he said that.
However, he did not expect that not only would Merica not feel relieved, she even shook her head again.
"No one will accept it."
Merica sobbed.
"Why?" Shien asked doubtfully. "Could it be that the elves have a rule against marrying men of another race?"
If there was such a stupid rule, Shien felt that he would have to go to the queen's palace and make a scene.
But this time, Merica did not shake her head or nod.
"The elves have no rule against marrying men of another race, because we do not need to get married at all, nor would we consider getting married." Merica said with a nasal voice, "The elves view love as sacred, but also believe that love is extremely poisonous.
"Because we are long-lived, there is an intrinsic difference in lifespan between us and the men of another race.
"For example, humans only have a lifespan of 100 years. But for us, this 100 years is not even enough for a newly reincarnated elf to reach adulthood.
"For the children of the elves, they are only considered adults at 150 years old, and they are considered to have reached the end of their lives at 1,000 years old. High-level elves have even longer lifespans. Until now, none of the royal elves have died of old age. They either died in an accident or in battle.
"For us, 100 years is only equivalent to five or six years for the other races.
"But if you were to be with a man of another race, you would have to watch him grow old and die after five or six years. That would be too sad and painful.
"Therefore, the elves will not discriminate against those who fall in love with men of another race. They will only sympathize with them and feel that they are pitiful.
"However, if you want to be with a man of another race regardless of the consequences, the elves will definitely oppose it. They will think that it is very irrational and willful."
Merica's explanation made Shien speechless.
After all, to a certain extent, this point of view was not wrong.
Think about it, if a human fell in love with someone who would grow old and die after five or six years, they would most likely choose to hide this relationship and not tell anyone about it. They would also not let the other party achieve anything, right?
People who valued relationships might choose to accompany the other party and spend the rest of their lives with the other party, but there were not many people who would recklessly tell their feelings and watch the other party grow old and die in front of them.
Of course, it could not be denied that there were some humans who would disregard everything and persist in being with the other party.
But the elves would not.
They greatly valued love and viewed love as sacred. They were also long-lived species, so their understanding and experience of time was completely different from that of humans.
They would not choose to enjoy a moment of youth.
Because they truly lived a long life, there was no such thing as a moment of youth in their concept of life.
They would not choose to disregard everything.
The importance they placed on love and their purity made most of them choose to silently dedicate themselves and then silently leave, rather than numb themselves and escape from reality for a short period of happiness.
Queen Sophie of the Elves is a prime example.
In her thousands of years of life, there were countless people who pursued this Elf Queen, and there were even a few famous heroes in history.
But in the end, Sophie chose to reject them all, and even kept her distance from them from the very beginning, not allowing any seeds of love to germinate.
This was the elves' view of love, a kind of national instinct and obsession.
Because of this, there were many elves who fell in love, but not a single one of them had a good ending.
This was the difference in the values of life and race.
No one could say anything about it.
"I … I only wanted to quietly stay by Mister Shien's side, I never thought things would turn out like this."
Merica said worriedly and blankly.
"Now, I really don't know what to do."
At this moment, Merica's delicate and pretty face showed the most intense perplexity so far.
It was no longer something that could be explained by the uneasiness after losing her virginity, but also a kind of questioning of life, a kind of bewilderment.
Looking at Merica like this, for a moment, Shien wondered if he had committed a heinous crime.
But soon, Shien shook off this thought.
"Look at me, Merica."
Shien held Merica in his arms and sat up in the water while gazing at her.
"Mister Shien …?"
Merica straddled Sean's body. Feeling the intimate contact between their bodies, she blushed a little and was a little nervous.
"Look at me."
Shien spoke again.
"…"
Merica unconsciously raised her eyes and looked at Shien.
In the next second, Merica and Shien stared at each other and saw a pair of deep and dark pupils.
Inside, Merica could clearly see her own face.
Then …
"Trust me, I will solve all of this."
Shien made a firm promise to Merica.
"But …"
Merica was still a little worried.
"Trust me." Shien interrupted Merica and said in a very strong voice, "I will think of a way."
Merica was silent.
Silence permeated between the two.
It was not until a long time later that Merica nodded timidly.
Shien smiled.
