"I’m telling you... Ahh~... Let’s sto—AHH~!"

Lu-el and Kaori’s morning intimacy extended until noon, same as yesterday.

It wasn’t like they had not taken a break.

When Kaori woke up after fainting from pleasure, they had their breakfast at the inn’s dining hall—where she told Lu-el that they needed to make some preparations in the afternoon since they would be leaving the Daifuku Hot Spring Village tomorrow.

Knowing their honeymoon would end soon, Lu-el wasted no time and continued their intimacy as soon as they returned to their room.

Regardless, even with their continuous intimacy from morning to noon, the satisfying, overwhelming sexual pleasure and stimulation they shared only made both of them want more.

"Maybe this will be the last..." Lu-el said after penetrating Kaori from behind with his entire length in a single thrust while pinning her down on the futon.

"After this round, we’ll get ready and head out shopping for supplies."

"You’re lying—AHH~!" Kaori retorted, only to continue moaning loudly as Lu-el began relentlessly pounding her.

They were far overwhelmed by their intimacy and intoxicated by pleasure, and Kaori had realized it herself.

There’s no way Lu-el would stop like he said.

Even if he did stop after their round on the futon, he would definitely start another round while showering, and she wouldn’t resist at all.

They would do it again before getting dressed in their yukata, and then one more round after getting dressed, right before they left their room.

It might look like they were overdoing their intimacy, but that should be expected since it was their honeymoon.

In the end, it was already night by the time they felt satisfied enough to hold back their lustful desires for each other—which is exactly what happened.

"What did I tell you!" Kaori grumbled, scolding Lu-el despite it also being half her fault.

"I know..." Lu-el said, embracing Kaori in apology.

"I’ll try to hold back from now on," he teased, assuming that holding back their intimacy was not something she truly wanted.

Kaori’s annoyed yet regretful blushing face told Lu-el that he had guessed right.

"Are you two done flirting?" Mikoto interrupted as she and Manami arrived at the inn lobby where Lu-el and Kaori were waiting.

"Tonight was actually a more appropriate time, so there’s no need to scold your lover or hold back your intimacy, young lady," Manami teased, making Kaori even more flustered as she recalled their conversation from the night before.

Following Mikoto and Manami as their group left the inn, Lu-el kept wondering where they might be going—until his eyes widened in sudden realization.

"Kaori..." he said, getting her attention.

"Are we perhaps getting married tonight?"

Since their benefactors were with them, it was the only assumption Lu-el could make—that they would stand witness to their marriage.

"OF COURSE NOT, YOU IDIOT!" Kaori exclaimed, completely flustered, loud enough to draw the attention of nearby passersby.

"You’re that dedicated to her already?"

"Pfft—hahaha!"

Hearing Mikoto and Manami’s remarks only made Kaori more embarrassed.

"We might be lovers, but we’re not getting married yet!" Kaori shouted, making Lu-el even more confused about both their destination and the customs of the world of Goddess’s Vessel.

"And I can’t get pregnant and have a child yet..."

Kaori continued to panic, only to become mortified by her own words and blush like a red maple leaf.

***

Continuing their night stroll, with Kaori clinging to Lu-el’s arm to hide from his gaze—and from Mikoto and Manami’s teasing—the group finally arrived at their destination: the Adventurer Guild.

Like the inn and other establishments, the Adventurer Guild had the feel of a building constructed with modern methods while imitating a retro fantasy style.

The stone pillars supporting the four-story building looked almost like concrete, and the wooden walls were so neatly finished it seemed as if they were factory-produced. Not to mention, the windows were made of glass.

Maybe the crafters in this world are more skilled than mine, Lu-el thought, once again impressed by what was supposed to be the graphics of Goddess’s Vessel—if only it was just a game.

Inside, their group was greeted by a beautiful blonde woman who appeared to be the only staff at the reception counter.

Lu-el clearly saw the woman’s eyes widen in surprise as she covered her lips with her right hand, then quickly shifted back to a perfect customer service smile as she revealed them again.

"Good evening, everyone," she said before bowing slightly and introducing herself. "I’m Marigold, the vice guild master of the Daifuku Hot Spring Village Adventurer Guild."

"Thank you for accepting our request, Mari," Mikoto said in greeting.

"I hope we’re not interfering with you and the guild master," Manami teased, hinting at their relationship.

"I’ll get back to him once we’re done for tonight," Marigold replied, enduring her embarrassment from Manami’s teasing.

While Mikoto and Manami spoke with Marigold, Lu-el took the chance to ask Kaori.

"Why exactly are we here, Kaori?" he asked, glancing at her clinging to his right arm as if hiding from Marigold’s curious gaze.

Looking up at him, Kaori finally spoke again after a long flustered silence.

"Didn’t you say the bandits stole all your belongings?" Kaori said, reminding Lu-el of his made-up backstory about being robbed while bathing in the river.

"I need you to get a new identification card for the next place we’re going," she added.

Lu-el immediately understood most of her intention.

He already realized Kaori wanted to monopolize his gift-granting ability as a Livestreamer—not that he was against it or conflicted about it.

With that in mind, it was reasonable that Kaori would want fewer people to know about his class as a Livestreamer.

Which meant Kaori had likely asked Manami not only for advice on how to take his massive rod with her mouth and throat, but also for help obtaining a new identification card from the Adventurer Guild—or so Lu-el assumed.

"Is that so..." Lu-el said, keeping his laid-back demeanor while slowly panicking internally.

"You’re not even going to ask what I might be dragging you into..." Kaori murmured, feeling guilty and afraid that Lu-el might end up hating her.

Rather than focusing on how troublesome Kaori’s situation might be, Lu-el was more concerned that he had no official records in the Adventurer Guild, despite his made-up backstory of being a wandering adventurer.

Kaori might become suspicious if nothing appeared in the Guild Archive, but Lu-el also foresaw trouble if he refused to get a new identification card now.

With no other choice, he decided to appeal to Kaori’s growing affection for him.

"There’s no need to," Lu-el replied, holding her hand and offering a gentle, comforting smile.

"Because I’m with you until the end of the story, Kaori."

"She’s blushing..."

"Blushing even more than the other night..."

"I mean, even I would be..."

Unable to endure the affection and teasing, Kaori retreated into her tsundere personality.

"Let’s just get this over with!" she retorted, her face, ears, and neck all flushed red as she dragged Lu-el along without letting go of his hand.

***

The reissuing of Lu-el’s identification card took only a few minutes.

He only needed to place his hand on a magic item tablet almost identical to an 11-inch Android smart tablet.

And to his surprise, he actually had a record in the Adventurer Guild Archive.

That hacker goddess, Lu-el thought, assuming it was Goddess Luvira’s doing.

A magic item card was then given to him—or rather, a 4.5-inch thin smartphone displaying his personal information.

---

[Adventurer Identification Card]

Name: Lu-el

Class: Livestreamer

Rank: Copper-rank Adventurer

Origin: Southern Region

Bank Account: ---

---

"So that’s why you’re so ignorant," Kaori said, noticing Lu-el’s place of origin.

Setting aside Kaori’s intriguing remark—and the concerning state of his bank account—Lu-el’s attention, along with Kaori’s, shifted toward Marigold, Mikoto, and Manami’s reaction.

"No way... the Goddess’s Eye..." Mikoto murmured, her voice trembling as she looked nervous.

As a Priestess, she was fully aware of the Livestreamer class as the Goddess’s Eye—that Goddess Luvira herself was overseeing everything happening around Lu-el, including this very moment.

At that realization, Mikoto couldn’t decide whether to feel honored by being seen by Goddess Luvira through Lu-el’s eyes or frightened by her behavior, remembering how she had scolded Lu-el and Kaori.

"I need to report this to the guild master—no, to the Duchess..."

Marigold nervously dropped the magic tablet at the counter before attempting to run toward the communication room—until Manami grabbed her shoulder over the counter to stop her.

"You can’t do that, Mari..." Manami said, flashing a threatening smile before continuing, "Why do you think the young lady requested to do this at night when no one else is around?"

Thanks to Manami’s persuasion along with the implied threat of divine retribution if Lu-el’s class was exposed, Marigold agreed to keep his record confidential.

Marigold even used her authority as vice guild master to restrict Lu-el’s identification card so that only high-ranking officials, such as the guild master and vice guild master, could view his class.

"Thank you for your consideration and understanding," Kaori said, unusually formal as she bowed slightly in gratitude.

Did they perhaps know about Kaori this entire time? Lu-el thought as he followed her outside the Adventurer Guild.

***

Since Mikoto was still nervous around Lu-el, she and Manami stayed at the Adventurer Guild for a while.

Lu-el and Kaori, on the other hand, went night shopping, buying supplies including new sets of clothes for both of them.

It was already midnight by the time they returned to their room at the inn.

Kaori assumed they would resume their intimacy since it was the last night of their honeymoon.

But to her surprise, Lu-el seemed content just cuddling on the futon.

"You’re not going to do anything perverted to me?" Kaori asked, unable to admit that she wanted it herself.

"Shouldn’t we sleep now since we’ll leave early tomorrow?" Lu-el teased, wanting her to admit what she truly wanted first.

"If it’s just one round, then you can do what you want..."

"Just one?"

"Fine..." Kaori said before kissing him, and after their lips parted, she finally admitted what she wanted.

"Make me feel good, Lu-el... until I fall asleep from pure pleasure."
