We finish eating, and Kenji looks satisfied with the meat Lysara provided and takes a nap. Lysara then takes me to a clothing store. Lysara gets a gleam in her eyes, and she is going through the store on a mission to find things she thinks will look good on me. While looking around, I see most pants have an option for a hole for tails, and tops that have options with holes specific for those with wings. She hands me a lingerie set first, "This may look like normal lingerie, but they actually provide defense against incubus and succubus pheromones. Put those on and also try this top. I think it will look cute on you, and it just so happens to boost defense. These bottoms here go with them and they reinforce the defensive magic of the top, making it more effective."
I go to the changing room and take off my priest's robe and the tied-up sleeve holding my breasts, and put the lingerie on first. Then I put on the top and pants. The top is form-fitted and you can see my abs through the stomach, and it draws attention to my breasts while also exposing my arms, allowing my muscly arms to breathe. It would be easy to fight in this outfit. I walk out, and Lysara comes up to me and lustfully looks at my chest, "Oh yes, even better than I was envisioning. We are definitely getting that outfit. I want you to always wear that lingerie while we are here in Patala. I will be getting several pairs in a few different colors with the same enchantment. I want to get you some more outfits that have a defensive boost." She says as she looks around.
She finds an outfit that looks like a harem outfit. The top covers just a bit more than my lingerie, and the bottoms are loose-fitting and taper to form-fitting near the ankles. She also grabs some sandals that look cute with it, and she hands them all to me, saying, "This outfit has a defensive enchantment as well. The sandals are enchanted with weightlessness. When channeling magic into your feet while wearing these, you can jump higher and farther and -" She reaches over to grab a veil that covers the lower part of the face that coordinates with the outfit, continuing, "This is enchanted with stealth magic. When wearing this, people will be less interested in you." I take all the garments to the dressing room and change into the harem outfit.
I walk out wearing everything she provided, and she says after biting her lip in that sexy manner while looking up and down my person with those desire-filled green eyes of hers, "I don't think that veil works, I am so turned on right now." The shopkeeper says, "Oh, it definitely works. The enchantment isn't strong enough to overpower love, though." Lysara then says while still looking at me with passion, "That is good to know. Now let's find one more outfit for you, boo." She turns and starts going through the store again. She finds a masculine-looking outfit she knows I will like and hands it to me with a pair of boots, "Another defensive outfit paired with boots of agility. You will run faster with these." I go and change my outfit again and come out, and Lysara says, wearing a sexy smirk, "You look really handsome in that. I think we got some good ones. Let's settle our tab and move on to the next store, boo... Ohwait. We never got your bow at the last town, did we?" I responded, recalling the incident with that ungrateful bastard, "I actually bought one right after buying your gift, but I dropped it during an altercation, and then I was immediately kidnapped, so I lost it as soon as I got it."
Lysara says as she boops my nose, "Then I will buy you another one before we go to the next store, my love." I go to reach for my purse on my hip to pay for these clothes, and she leans in closer, placing a hand on my hand that is reaching for my hip and whispers in my ear, "I am paying for all of this. That man tore your favorite travel outfit, and I will replace that bad experience by buying you so much more than he ruined. I won't take no for an answer today." She says as she comes in to nibble my ear, which startles me because I wasn't expecting it. Now I am blushing so hard my whole face is red. Lysara giggles that naughty giggle of hers, "Keep reacting like that, and I will do this every time we go out." She purrs and she puts her finger under my chin, lifting my face for what I thought was going to be a kiss, but she stops just before pulling a moan out of me with a phantom's kiss. I pouted a little bit because I thought she was going to kiss me, but I am still completely red. Lysara giggles, wearing a sexy, naughty expression, "I wanna make you beg for it." I continue to pout while she settles the tab with the shopkeeper and we then leave.
She then takes me to the potion shop after she has bought me another bow. We arrive and we see that the shopkeeper is an elf. Lysara asks him about healing potions, and the shopkeeper says, "I need someone with healing magic to make those potions, but I don't have anyone. If I did, then I could whip up a whole batch in like 30 minutes." I then raise my hand about chest level, and chime in, "Sir, I can use healing magic. Would you like to borrow my ability?" The shopkeeper has a huge smile, beaming, and starts rubbing his hands together almost like a villain coming up with a scheme. He says while showing the way, "If you would follow me this way to the back. The part I need you for shouldn't take too awful long, and the rest I can do myself."
I follow him and we get to a room with lots of beakers and glassware and a bunch of different colored potion ingredients, I am assuming. He takes me to a bunch of herbs and says, "I want you to embed your mana into all of these herbs. Once you are done, you can go back out in the lobby." I then go to the pile of herbs and I embed them, which only takes me a few seconds. The shopkeeper who was working on some of the other ingredients sees me leaving, "You can't possibly be done already." I look at him confused, not understanding why he would say that, "I am. Do you have any more you need me to embed with my mana as well?" He looks shocked, "Wait, so you not only embedded all of those herbs, but you have more mana to spare? You are acting like that didn't cost you hardly any mana."
I shrug slightly, losing the look of confusion, realizing the intent behind his words, "I have been told I have a large amount of mana for a human." The shopkeeper then closes his eyes and sighs briefly and responds, "Thank goodness, I wasn't expecting much from you because you were human to be honest. I am sorry for assuming things." I wave at him in dismissal, "Don't worry about it... So, do you have any more you want me to embed mana into?" The shopkeeper jumps, "Oh yeah, you did ask that, sorry. I will need to restock on those herbs. Can you come back tomorrow?" I replied, "I can come by every day while I am in town, if you need me to. I want to spread my ability, and help all I can with it. This also helps you, too." I say with a habitual, elegant smile. The shopkeeper, smiling, stops working on his ingredients and comes over to shake my hand, "I think we are going to be great friends. My name is Arbane. What is your name?" I replied, still shaking his hand, "Ari. I'll get out of your hair and go back out into the lobby."
I get back into the lobby, and as I am walking back to Lysara, a lizard boy comes in and runs into me. This caused me to crash into a shelf, causing many potions to fall on me. This caused a tiny purple puff cloud, like a spell or a curse had been activated. The child, just as quickly as he bumped into me, was gone. There was a tiger woman who appeared briefly after, asking about a lizard boy who stole from her. Arbane comes running in, "By the goddess, what has happened here?" He says, furrowing his brow in concern because of all of the noise.
I give them a brief summary about how a lizard boy bumped into me while running past me, which caused all the potions to fall on me, and a purple cloud surrounded me. The tiger woman thanks me and storms in the direction where the kid was last going. Arbane puts his hand on his head and asks with concern in his voice, "What potions fell on you?" I look at the shelf and the labels, "Potion of giggling, potion of agility, potion of stealth, and a potion of relaxation." Arbane thinks for a moment, "I think that combination causes a temporary minor curse that causes the body to make weird sounds." Lysara laughs, "I think I have heard of that." She comes over immediately and squeezes my breast, and it squeaks.
She repeatedly squeezes my breasts, making them squeak over and over while she is giggling maniacally, "HA! I love this so fucking much! How long does this kind of curse usually last?" Arbane replies, placing his hand to his chin, thinking, "It depends on a variety of factors, so I can't tell you exactly. It could be as quick as one hour, or it could be years potentially. Though I would guess maybe a week or so from the amount that you were exposed to." I am blushing since Lysara is still holding my breasts in her hands. She keeps squeezing my breasts over and over again while giggling, "This is going to be a fun week or so, then." Arbane says, "Don't worry about the cost of the potions that fell on you. With all the help you are going to give me this week, I should really be paying you. I got interrupted making this batch because of the noise. Give me a few more minutes, and I will get you your healing potions for free. It is the least I can do. You not only will be letting me borrow your healing magic, but you also got cursed in my shop." Lysara says with a beaming smile as she continues honking my boobs embarrassingly, "Thank you so much. We will gladly take those free potions." Arbane smiles and chuckles under his breath at Lysara's new obsession as he turns to leave to finish making that batch of healing potions. The whole time he is gone, Lysara is touching me all over. Different body parts make different sounds, but all on the squeaky, weird spectrum. She nibbles my ears and they make a weird squeak and she giggles, "I am having way too much fun now. I am afraid I won't be able to keep my hands off of you since you are now so entertaining." As she says this, her tail is wagging very playfully. When Arbane is finally done, he comes out and hands us our potions, and we say our goodbyes and head to the next store.
We then arrive at the special store Lysara wanted to show me, and Lysara says, "This is a sex shop. They don't necessarily sell sex, but they sell a lot of fun toys for sex. We have these all over Patala since there are succubi and incubi everywhere here. We need sex to live, and these are valuable tools for us. We also love to work at these shops as a race because of the sexual pheromones people emit in anticipation, and also the off chance they get to feed off a horny customer. So, is there anything you want in particular?" I look around, blushing, "I don't know much about this kind of thing, so I will need you to show me what everything is and what it is used for." Lysara giggles naughtily with stars in her beautiful green eyes, "Over here is a double dildo. The position we did earlier, we can use this for penetration." I turn beet red, and I imagine us using it.
Lysara approaches me while holding it and brings her lips just to the edge of mine without touching my lips, and she drags a little phantom's kiss out. She giggles that naughty giggle of hers, "You naughty girl. You are picturing us using this, aren't you?" I nod and I lean forward to kiss her on the lips, and she says, "Uh uh. You haven't begged for me, yet." I pout, "Please kiss me, Lysara. I will do anything you want." She purrs, "Good girl." She comes in and kisses me, pulling another phantom's kiss. She squeezes my breast again, causing it to squeak. The shopkeeper who is a succubus heard it and immediately exclaimed in disbelief, "No fucking way! What sound did her boob just make?! Do that shit again!" Lysara giggles and honks my breast again. The shopkeeper laughs, "HA! HA! HA! I would be touching those things all day if I were you. Why do they make that sound?" I say all red in the face, "I may have gotten temporarily cursed, and now my body does this for now." I say as Lysara keeps squeaking my breasts over and over, then nibbling my ear to do the slightly different squeak. Lysara picks the double dildo back up with one hand, the other is still squeezing my breast. I blush even harder than I currently am because I almost forgot about the toy since she was touching me. Now I am thinking of the toy AND her touching me.
Lysara says, "We are definitely getting this." She says as she releases my breast, turns to the next thing, "This is a strap-on. The harness holds a dildo so a woman can play the part of 'the man'." I blush more, and she breathes in a lot and says, "I love your smell. That is it. Everything that makes you excited and makes you smell like that, we are getting." She takes the harness as well and says, "We are going to need a basket." She quickly walks to the front of the store and places the items in a basket, and returns to my side almost immediately and continues, "This is a sex swing. This opens the door to a bunch of different positions. This will actually be handy on the road when we are traveling in wooded areas. We could hang it on a tree." I feel like since we have come into this store, I have not stopped blushing.
Lysara goes ahead and puts it in the basket and goes on to the next thing, "Moving on, we got candles here for wax play. Though I am not sure if you will like the hot wax or the pain of dripping the wax onto the skin." I blush and avert my eyes, feeling particularly bashful, "As long as it is you, I will try anything you want, Lysara." Lysara purrs, "If that is the case, then we need to buy everything they have in this store because I want to do everything with you." My whole body gets hot, and she puts the basket down and comes up to me and wraps her arm around my waist while initiating her phantom's kiss again, causing me to moan, then says, "I guess we are just going to have to buy everything then."
Lysara turns to the shopkeeper, who happens to be biting her lip in arousal, and asks, "How much for one of every item you have in stock?" The succubus shopkeeper says, "Hmmm. Probably around 30 gold for one of everything that you both can use. That is excluding our merchandise for men. I will have to double-check. I will give you a 5 gold discount, though, if you let me borrow that human. She smells delicious." She says as she licks her lips. Lysara wraps her arm around me, being possessive, and says, "This human is all mine. I wouldn't part with her if you offered me the world."
The succubus clerk smacks her teeth in disappointment, "Tssk. That's a shame. Let me double-check the pricing while you can finish picking up the items out here, and hopefully reconsider sharing. She is awakening my appetite." She purrs. Lysara growls at her and shows her teeth when I chime in as Lysara still holds me by the waist, "I am sorry, Miss Succubus. I belong to Lysara. She is the one who makes my heart beat, and she is the only one I yearn for." Lysara purrs and kisses me on my neck, then leaves my side to continue picking up things while the shopkeeper says, "You might want to watch out here in Patala, human. Your smell is so intoxicating that I am sure you will be targeted by succubi and incubi alike. We love innocent and erotic smelling humans. You drive us crazy. Especially while you are afflicted by that amusing curse."
Lysara says with a snarky attitude, "If they try, I will fuck them up if they touch even one hair on her head." The shopkeeper giggles a sultry giggle, "So cute. I love your 'couple' energy. Instead of borrowing the human, how about a threesome instead?" Lysara and I say in sync, "NO." The shopkeeper giggles, "Ok, fine. I will give up. For now, at least." Lysara finishes getting the rest of the toys, lube, and other sex things and places them all on the counter, which turned out to be several baskets worth of goods. The Shopkeeper says, "That will be 30 gold." I pull out 15 gold, and Lysara looks like she is about to protest, but I interject before she can say anything and say, "It is only fair that sex things should be paid for by both of us since this is an activity both of us are invested in." Lysara sighs and shrugs, "Ok fine. Have it your way." She says as she pulls out 15 gold from her purse, and we hand her the money.
This would have been too expensive for me if I hadn't brought my money from home. The money we get from healing is enough for our normal daily expenses, with extra for some fun things. This is a lot more than 'some' and most definitely a splurge. I still have a lot of my allowance left, so this didn't really make much of a dent. We pay for everything, and then we place all of the toys in our storage bags. The succubus clerk groans in sexual frustration and pouts, "She has money, too. Just pulling out 15 gold like it is nothing. Now I really want this human." She mumbles to herself as she turns away from us a bit in a childish way. Lysara says as she finishes putting the toys away, "What do you say about breaking in some of these now?" She says with a naughty smirk.
I blush hard in anticipation, and she steps in to kiss me while doing another phantom's kiss, and I moan in pleasure while honking my breasts. "I take that as a yes." She does that sultry giggle of hers. The shopkeeper is deflated and deeply sighs while waving us off. She is most definitely pouting because she couldn't feed off of me. We head back to the inn, and it is getting darker outside. Lysara says while we are walking, "I should have made you change back into that harem outfit before going in there, or put that veil on you at least. I should have anticipated that, but I am a dumb ass." As she says this, she grits her teeth.
I snap back, "You aren't a dumb ass. Be nicer to my future wife. Plus, it isn't like anything happened." She sighs and shrugs, "Still, I hate other people lusting after you. It makes me want to hit them." She says, gritting her teeth while also clenching her fist tightly. "You don't know how badly I wanted to kill that fucking crown prince for assaulting you. I know I already said it once, but my intent to kill him at that moment was strong. I stopped at the last second from hitting him with lethal force and pulled back at the last second for the sleep spell. I feel like if I were any slower in realizing the situation, I really would have killed him." I do remember her moving really quickly towards Tristan at that moment. So I believed her words even though my mind was in a haze at that time. I am still not sure everything I remember from the haze really happened. She is holding my hand and squeezes my hand, which squeaks, and I squeeze her hand back, and my hand squeaks in response. I respond, "I don't even think I would have cared if you did kill him at that moment. I was so terrified." She squeezes my hand again, and I squeeze her hand back, and we go back and forth all the way to the inn.
