Elf Tensei Kara no Cheat Kenkoku-ki

Book 1: Chapter 7-3: Dream

For now its fine. Its a special time for the two of us to enjoy some luxury. Well be able to do it again later.

Theres even honey mead! Ive never had it before!

Honey mead was liquor that had been distilled using honey. The place we lived was cold and unsuitable for cultivating sugarcane. That means it was a very high class luxury good that relied on importation.

Because of that we could only get sweetness from fruits or honey. Without any improvements the fruits in the area werent very delicious. This made honey a very popular product. As a result honey leapt up in price and for that reason even alcohol made with honey couldnt be obtained by normal citizens. This mead was most likely meant for an important guest or higher up who had a taste for it.

Theres only three bottles. If we hand this over the adults will take it all and itll never reach us right? So lets open one here. I put my life on the line so I should at least get this much of a benefit.

The Elf village put a fairly large amount of emphasis on seniority. The delicious things would be given to the elders and very little would make it past them.

Before Lucy woke up I had used Samsara Recursion and summoned Deet to use my Item box to take out some goods.

The items in Deets Item Box would reset when I reincarnated, but other than that everything I put inside would remain there.

Uu, but this kind of embezzlement.

Okay, I guess Lucy isnt drinking any. Ill just have to finish it myself.

I flaunted the golden liquid as I poured it into my cup.

I could hear Lucy gulping.

Here, take a sniff. It smells delicious.

Yeahit does.

Lucy said as if her mind was blank.

This was how much Lucy wanted to taste something sweet.

The mountains around us had bees, but they were more like giant hornets and paper wasps. They were carnivorous and made it prohibitively difficult to take the honey. The last time wed seen any honey was at the wedding of the Village Headmans son. It had been specially prepared for it.

Naturally we didnt get to try any of it.

Okay then. Here I go.

I poured the honey mead down my throat. I felt my body tingle as I tasted the first sweetness Id had in years.

The sweet flavor washed through my tired body.

Delicious! It was worth risking my life to attack that base.

I purposefully overreacted and emphasized how delicious it was.

What a shame. Lucy wont be able to enjoy this flavor. She might never get another chance to taste honey mead in her life.

Lucys cheek twitched.

Just one more push.

Theres only one cup left. I cant wait to drink it.

..give it to me.

Lucy said in a voice as quiet as a mosquito.

Hm? What did you say?

Mead.I want to drink it.

I seethen here you go.

I filled Lucys cup to the brim.

I didnt expect Cyril to give it over without more teasing

I was just teasing you to get you to drink it. Once you agreed of course Id give it to you.

I said holding out the cup to her. Lucy timidly grabbed it and sniffed it. Then she took a mouthful.

Delicious~~

Lucy said as if she was melting.

Her face had a loose smile Id never seen before. I knew she thought the deer liver was delicious, but it was apparent that the deliciousness of sugar was something on a whole new level.

No matter where it is or when.women were weak to sweet things.

Im glad you liked it.

I said as I took a bite of the deer meat and a sip of my mead. The salty flavor of the meat and the sweetness of the mead suited each other. My body flushed as the alcohol took effect.

I might be fine dying now.

Lucy slowly drank her mead bit by bit as she whispered.

I think you should stop thinking like that. Once winter comes around Ill give you something more delicious than the honey mead. It wont just be a cupyoull be able to have your fill.

I said and patted the trunk of a maple tree nearby.

The mead was delicious, but it was only as sweet as a cup of tea with three sugars in it. I wanted to let Lucy taste a true dessert snack.

Honestly I wanted to prepare it now, but winter was the only time when I could do it properly.

Winter? Theres no food during the winter and we cant get honey either you know? Are there any sweet things out there during the winter?

Yeah there are. Theres something delicious. Its even more sweet and syrupy than the honey mead, enough that youll go to heaven Lucy.

If I get to eat something that delicious I might die.

Lucy replied seriously to my joke.

Before I realized it, Lucys cup was empty.

I let out a little smile and poured the leftover honey mead into Lucys cup.

Seeing that Lucys eyes widened.

Cyrils so nice. Can I ask two things? Do you want to kiss me?

Of course since I love Lucy.

Second, are you against a kiss with tongue?

Of course not. I prefer it.

Lucy asked those questions then she took a sip of the honey mead in her cup before bringing her face close to mine. Our lips touched and Lucys tongue entered my mouth.

I could feel warm mead flowing from Lucys mouth into mine. I felt like it was tastier than when I simply drank it from my cup.

PICTURE

Then after about ten seconds Lucy moved away.

That was your half of the leftover mead.

Lucy said turning away shyly.

Adorable. I wanted to push her down right now. However, I resisted the impulse.

But honestly I wanted to kiss some more. Oh, I just had a good idea.

Okay, lets open the second one. Ill split it in half with you Lucy.

If there was more mead then I could do it again under that pretext!

I still hadnt recovered from the recoil of using Samsara Recursion this morning, but I could do it again quickly if I was prepared for a bit of after effects to my soul. Id just have to be careful for a while.

I had to take out the second one right now.New n𝙤vel chapters are published on

Thats no good. The other two are for the others.

However, Lucy plainly turned me down.

Only those self-important idiots will get to drink any

Even so we cant. It might reach everyone in the village. If you open it Ill get angry.

If you get angry whatll happen?

I wont speak to Cyril for an entire week.

Okay then, lets get ready to set off.

I quickly cleaned up our plates and cups before going over to the horses.

She was completely serious. I dont think Id be able to handle Lucy treating me like I didnt exist for an entire week.

Cyril

Lucy called out from behind me. Had I gone a bit to far in my teasing?

Thank you. It was delicious.

However, the words I dreaded turned out to be thanks instead.

I turned around with a smile and said.

It was my pleasure.
