Chapter 179 – In Search of Hana
<span style="font-weight:400">The both of us walked circles on the stage while facing each other. Our bodies wereid bare for all to see. Not even the audience was cheering anymore as they watched with bated breath who would make the first move. The dark elven queen''s hung and veiny cock throbbed as she moved, tempting my subus being just looking at it.
<span style="font-weight:400">When Elendir and I first did ''battle'' to decide the hierarchy, she was tender and sweet. It was almost akin to passionate lovemaking. Now, however, the steeled resolve in her glinting eyes told me she wanted to be sure of victory.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I don''t want to waste another minute while Hana is missing, so excuse me while I make the first move." I lifted both hands and summoned portals from which chains shot out of. Two snatched Elendir by the arms and one on the ground coiled around her neck. It reeled down, forcing her to her knees.
<span style="font-weight:400">Satisfied that Elendir would be restrained for the time being, I grabbed her by the head and massaged the length of her ears.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You think this will hold me for long?" Elendir asked.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Nope. Just long enough," I said, pushing her face into my crotch.
<span style="font-weight:400">Elendir''s eyes snapped open, but she seized the opportunity to eat my pussy out. Her tongue plunged into me with great skill and lips teased my clit which brought me mind-numbing pleasure.
<span style="font-weight:400">However, I didn''t close the distance to just let Elendir take the upper hand… My tail slithered down and coiled around the length of her dick, like a snake constricting around its prey. I felt her tongue stiffen from me clenching it tighter. Her eyes began to flutter and tongue slowed down as the pleasure I inflicted made her weak.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What''s the matter? You''re going to lose at this rate~" I taunted and slowly closed in with my aura to intensify her senses.
<span style="font-weight:400">Elendir flexed and shattered the chain restraints. My portals closed shut. Through sheer will, she had broken the trance and freed herself.
<span style="font-weight:400">When I jumped back, Elendir snatched my ankle. I fell t to the ground. She grabbed a handful of my hair and yanked hard, forcing me to stare out at the crowds going wild.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I have defeated many subi. You will be no different. Now, taste the pleasure of countless before you, Queen Saeko." With those words, Elendir thrusted into the limits of my depth in a single push.
<span style="font-weight:400">Lights out. I was seeing stars instead of dark elves and subi spectators. Elendir''s massive cock fucked me effortlessly without missing a beat.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Look at them," she urged me with another yank to my hair, bringing me closer to climax. "Those are our subjects. Hundreds— nay, <i><span style="font-weight:400">thousands.</i><span style="font-weight:400"> Each with their own family. We are responsible for their lives. If I have to fuck you to submission to remind you of that, then prepare yourself!"
<span style="font-weight:400">The rhythm picked up. Elendir pistoned so hard, the tip of her dick was assaulting my womb. Each time she struck, I''d lose bits and pieces of my sanity. All I wanted next was for her hot, dark elf cum filling me to the brim.
<span style="font-weight:400">But… a face appeared before me. Hana''s stupid grin. A toothy smile so big that it could reflect the sun''s rays and blind you. She stood by mine and Mio''s side whenever we needed her. Never questioning why. If I were to lose Hana, how could I call myself the subus queen?
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s because… I''m responsible… for their lives… that I have to do this… I''d do it… for any one of them!" I muttered, pushing myself up by the elbows.
<span style="font-weight:400">Elendir pped my ass. Pain shot up my spine. She must have hit hard enough to leave a handprint. Again, harder. This time to the left cheek.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You like that, don''t you? Pain and pleasure go hand in hand for a subus. If I—"
<span style="font-weight:400">A hard kick to Elendir''s chest pushed her away. Her dick slipped out of my pussy as she fell backwards. The audience gasped. Mio whooped. I conjured magical chains from portals again, binding her wrists and ankles to the ground, and then climbing atop her dick to ride on.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Sometimes… It feels better to be on top," I said, snapping my fingers. The ensuing ripple of magic shattered the restraints of those chained up at the back of the stage.
<span style="font-weight:400">They looked around cluelessly until I ced a charm on them and beckoned them to us. A light elven man, a subi, and two dark elven women. All four were criminals, prisoners of the dungeon underneath the manor made to be eye candy up here but were now my ves.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What are you… doing?" Elendir asked.
<span style="font-weight:400">"iming victory," I dered.
<span style="font-weight:400">Elendir opened her mouth to make a retort, but the light elf silenced her by pushing his dick down her throat. The two dark elves bent down and sucked on each of her nipples. Lastly, the purple-haired subus knelt down to kiss me. Both of our tails slithered behind Elendir and drilled into her puckered ass.
<span style="font-weight:400">The five of us fucked her relentlessly. Soon, she began to convulse intensely. Her throbbing dick erupted with thick, fertile ejacte that would have impregnated me for sure had it been <i><span style="font-weight:400">that</i><span style="font-weight:400"> time of the year again. As Elendir filled my pussy with cum, I noticed her hand tapping against the stage floor.
<span style="font-weight:400">I shoved the subus away and ordered the light elf to back off. He pulled his dick out Elendir, who began coughing out semen that might have gone down the wrong pipe.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Do you want to admit defeat? Or should I squeeze some more out of you?" I asked, shaking my hips and causing her to writhe again.
<span style="font-weight:400">"No… I concede…" Elendir announced, loud enough for the crowds to hear and go nuts cheering.
<span style="font-weight:400">Though the loudest among them was definitely the subi.
<span style="font-weight:400">"From henceforth, you reign as queen in our alliance… But Saeko, there must not be war… promise me that," she pleaded to me.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I promise. All we want to do is find Hana. We could use help from dark elven magic," I said.
<span style="font-weight:400">Elendir sat up but was still shuddering from climaxing so hard. The penis from their special elixir usually didn''t go limp, but hers did. She motioned to Shayle, who jumped from her seat and hurried onto the stage.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yes, my queen?" Shayle presented herself to us.
<span style="font-weight:400">"See to it that Queen Saeko''s needs and orders are met. In the meantime, I will… <i><span style="font-weight:400">reflect</i><span style="font-weight:400"> that I might never experience such an incredible orgasm ever again," Elendir said.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Who says we can''t go again?" I grinned. "But it''ll have to be after I find Hana. Thanks, Elendir. I won''t send our people into unnecessary conflict. You have my word."
<span style="font-weight:400">After iming leadership over Queen Elendir in the dark elven and subi alliance, I began issuing orders to rmence our search. We gathered the bulk of the subi outside of the manor, though I had no ns to take everyone. A sizable chunk was going to stay behind.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Selene, La. Change of ns. You two take care of things back in Japan. Mio, Yumi, and I will search Elza instead," I said.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Are you sure?" Selene asked. "You''re much less familiar with this world than your own."
<span style="font-weight:400">I nodded to reaffirm my conviction. "If three greater subi are flying together, then it''s going to cause a lot more panic than not."
<span style="font-weight:400">Selene and La bowed, then went to find Shayle to have a portal opened for them. Before the rest of us were about to take flight, Queen Elendir emerged from the manor. Rposed and back in all her regal glory.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Don''t try and stop us, Elly. It''s not happening," Mio said.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I have no intentions of doing so. I''vee to ask Queen Saeko if there is anything I can do to assist. The dark elven stand ready." Elendir straightened up as the proud matriarch she was.
<span style="font-weight:400">The three of us eased up. It must be hard for Elendir, but I could tell she really meant well when trying to keep me from stirring up trouble.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I appreciate it, but I think your people should stay put. If anything does happen, and I or the subi provokes the other races, I want you to distance yourself from us. Say that you acted to stop us," I implored her.
<span style="font-weight:400">They gawked at me in surprise.
<span style="font-weight:400">"But, Queen Saeko—"
<span style="font-weight:400">"What I''m doing is selfish. It''s probably the boy in me who still hasn''t grown up yet. But the dark elven people suffered enough, and this is a subi problem. Just sit back this time and let us handle it," I insisted.
<span style="font-weight:400">Did I say too much? It still felt awkward being a queen, despite a whole year having passed. Queen Elendir, however, took one step back and dropped down to one knee.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You are much more mature than you give yourself credit for. I understand. I shall pray for your good fortune from here. May the Everlight guide your way," Elendir wished us well before returning into the manor.
<span style="font-weight:400">"So, which direction are we headed? Hana could have gone anywhere, you know?" Mio asked.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I have an idea to narrow down our search," I said.
<span style="font-weight:400">Instead of searching blind, I told the subi to stay put. Mio and Yumi follow me down to the dungeons underneath the manor. We kept prisoners of all kinds there. Sarena being one of them, though in a separate high-security area. It wasn''t her that we were looking for however, but the rogue subi we had previously imprisoned.
<span style="font-weight:400">Mio taunted every prisoner we passed by, many of whom weren''t subi, but insubordinate dark elves or war criminals serving out their sentence.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Was she always like this?" I whispered to Yumi.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Ufufu~ Mio has actually be more behaved ever since you two met. Even you must have noticed it." Yumi giggled into the back of her hand and watched with matronly affection as Mio bothered the prisoners.
<span style="font-weight:400">How could I forget? When we first met, she was absolutely wild. Not a care in the world. Everything I told her not to do, she did. Sometimes, things were still like that. Though I''d be lying if I hadn''t noticed some of her changes, too.
<span style="font-weight:400">We reached the cell of our errant subi. There had to be over twenty inside, lying around and shooting res at us within the dark cage. Two dark elvendies were standing guard and saluted when they saw us.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Queen Saeko, we were informed of the change in leadership moments ago. Your orders are our duties," the pony-tailed elf said.
<span style="font-weight:400">"We want to speak with the subi inside. Open the cell," I gave their firstmand.
<span style="font-weight:400">The two clearly didn''t expect that and traded uneasy looks.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You wish to enter with the prisoners?" the red-headed one asked, her voice tinged with hesitation.
<span style="font-weight:400">"There''s no risk of them escaping. Do it," I said.
<span style="font-weight:400">Both of them faced inward at the cell, then raised both hands at the lock. A small spark of magic zapped the metal bars, creating a door that creaked open. They stepped back as it did, seemingly fearful of being immediately mind-controlled by the subi within.
<span style="font-weight:400">All of them rose to their feet and descended from their bunk beds as I entered, snarling with ws and fangs bared. Mio and Yumi nked me fearlessly.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Kneel before your queen," Yumi ordered, exacting her ownmand over them.
<span style="font-weight:400">They obeyed. As expected of a subus whose own aura was almostparable to a greater one. With their heads to the ground, Mio walked over to a resisting subus and grinded a foot on the back of her skull.
<span style="font-weight:400">"We''re not here to y nice," I began calmly. "A friend is missing. We think she went searching for more rogue subi or something called ahari somewhere in Elza<i><span style="font-weight:400">.</i> <i><span style="font-weight:400">If</i><span style="font-weight:400"> she had any lead at all, where in this world would she begin looking?"
<span style="font-weight:400">The question was kept vague. Doing so allowed their brain to process differently while charmed. For the longest time, I''d been using mypulsion in a way that only begot binary answers. Yes or no. But there were other ways of applying my subus magic, and it was more akin to suggestion.
<span style="font-weight:400">The red-headed subus I had caught and was the most recent addition to the prison, bowed her head in obedience.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Queen Saeko, Hana would most likely be heading due northwest. Too far west, and the beast tribes of Elza would sooner tear her to shreds. South, there would be no subi to find other than the armies of the Everlight''s prisoners," she answered monotonously, eyes shifting slowly from one side to the other while in thought.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Northwest? What''s up there?" I asked.
<span style="font-weight:400">When I turned around, I saw that both Yumi and Mio had a grim look on them.
<span style="font-weight:400">The subus continued, "Thends of our former demon lord. It has since been razed in holy fire by the bastard light elven''s champions, rendering the entire domain mostly uninhabitable."
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s true," Yumi said with sadness in her voice. "All across thosends were manors and garrisons much like this one, filled with nests of demons. The one we inhabit is among thest to stand, thanks inrge part to Queen Elendir''s political maneuverings following the war''s end."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Uwah… Suddenly, I feel very terrible about taking leadership from her." I sighed.
<span style="font-weight:400">"We got our ce. Get up, Red. You''reing with." Mio dragged the red-headed subus up and gave her butt a hard smack.
<span style="font-weight:400">A flock of two hundred subi took flight from the manor towards northwest Elza. Yumi, Mio, and I led the way. We had them spaced out in a gargantuan line to cover a greater distance. This way, it would be easier to detect Hana or a rogue subus'' aura. <i><span style="font-weight:400">Red</i><span style="font-weight:400">, whom Mio had so jokingly named, remained under my mind-control and flew alongside us.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yumi, you said ces like Queen Elendir''s manor were destroyed, right? Is it possible that some are intact enough for rogue subi to live in them?" I asked.
<span style="font-weight:400">"It is <i><span style="font-weight:400">possible</i><span style="font-weight:400">, but it is unlikely. The reason being our race needs to feed. If thend is too inhospitable for another race to make a living in, then there would be no one around to feed off of. A subus much rather prefers dense poptions," Yumi exined.
<span style="font-weight:400">"That''s why we ended up in Japan," Mio added with a smirk.
<span style="font-weight:400">I rolled my eyes. "Uh-huh. I know all about that…"
<span style="font-weight:400">Whichever subus living in Tokyo was probably having the time of their life.
<span style="font-weight:400">The forests we were flying over came to an abrupt stop. A craggy desertid before us with fossilized spines from long dead and burnt trees nketing the terrain, crackedndscape, and a hazy sky of dust. Leaves and trees at the break in the forest were alight with golden mes. Holy fire. If it hadn''t been put out yet, then that must mean it couldn''t be put out.
<span style="font-weight:400">So beyond this point, thend was once just as lush as Elendir''s manor and the light elves'' forests.
<span style="font-weight:400">We must have flown for half a day with no luck until our search line stopped from the left wing. Since it took a split second for the others to notice, it caused our huge line to nt diagonally as each proceeding subus saw and stopped mid-flight.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Queen Saeko!" A subus from the left raced down the length of the search line. "There is a medium-sized garrison back west. Dpidated, but thin trails of smoke might mean signs of life down there. Your orders?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"We''re leaving no stones unturned. Search together as a group," I ordered.
<span style="font-weight:400">Mio whistled sharply to the subi behind us, and all two hundred of us descended upon the garrison together. Charred walls and copsed rubble showed signs of an old battle. Likely not recent. The ramparts wrapped around what might have been a vige once. It was probably an impressive piece of work back in the day.
<span style="font-weight:400">I drew closer to the main keep when a familiar aura tickled the edge of mine. Even amongst the hundreds around me, I sensed it clear as day.
<span style="font-weight:400">"That look… Is she in there?" Mio asked,nding next to me.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I think— Mio, wait!"
<span style="font-weight:400">Mio didn''t wait for an answer and booked it towards the keep. She made it as far as the portcullis when a bright beam of light fired out from it. We leaped away in time to avoid getting it, but someone rolled out and crumpled to the ground. Her pink hair was stained a darker shade, face caked in dirt, but we knew right away it was Hana.
<span style="font-weight:400">However, Hana didn''t share the same joy and relief seeing us.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What are you guys… doing here? You hafta get out… now!" Hana shouted urgently.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Well, well, well. Look what we have here, Sister."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Deviant subi attempting to reim their broken home. Whatever shall we do about them, Brother?"
<span style="font-weight:400">Two elves of short stature emerged from the keep. They were dressed the same, in a white regalia with chainmail over their bodies. Twins. The boy had short blonde hair, and the girl had long blonde hair down to her waist.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Not good!" Yuminded with her eyes snapped open and fangs bared. "To think there were two light elven champions out here?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Champions? Is that bad? Should I be worried?" I asked frantically, trying to assess the situation.
<span style="font-weight:400">The boy materialized a golden spear and went low to the ground as if preparing to run us down. The girl summoned a silver shield decorated with the sun on it. I knew as soon as I saw them that those were artifact-level items, and neither of the light elves were looking to have a talk.
