Village Head's Debauchery-Novel

Chapter 571 In Search of Divine Aid

"You don't mean?" Selene said, recalling that the Crystalforge Elite warriors and Orion had confirmed the existence of another god right below the garden. 

Although she wasn't sure if the god would be willing to help them, she understood the weight of the name 'god.' 

Regardless of Orion's relationship with a god, she wasn't optimistic that the god would willingly assist them in resolving their predicament.

"Yes," Orion interrupted. He continued, "He's the only one who can help us with this predicament now."

Selene quickly shook her head, "No. I don't think it's proper for us to directly ask a god we've just learned about to solve a problem for us," Selene said.

Orion looked at Selene's hesitant expression and immediately understood she was just a little fearful about asking a god for help.

"How about this? I go and speak to him first to find out if he can help us, and then I'll let you all know if he's willing," Orion suggested, shaking his head as a sigh escaped his lips.

Hearing Orion's words, Selene bit the side of her lip nervously.

"Mom, please, let's give it a try," Crystalia said, turning her head to the side and staring at her mother with a pleading gaze.

Selene gazed at Crystalia's pleading expression and sighed internally before shifting her attention toward her husband.

Noticing his wife's gaze, King Brylon exhaled deeply and nodded weakly.

Seeing this, Selene sighed once more. She refocused her attention back on Orion and nodded in response. 

"Alright, if that's the case, we will count on you. I will have someone help the King to the garden; you can go ahead," she responded.

Orion nodded in response. He nodded at Crystalia, Madam Seraphina, and the rest again before turning around and silently signalling Fifi as he walked towards the door. 

Once they arrived outside with the door closed behind them, Fifi couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is she really your partner?" Although she had just witnessed an engagement, which appeared slightly similar to their village proposal, she still didn't want to believe any of it until she received confirmation from Orion himself.

Orion turned his head to the side to look at Fifi. He nodded his head with a smile on his lips. "Yes, she's my partner," he responded. 

He suddenly furrowed his brows and asked, "What's the matter?" wanting to know what was on Fifi's mind.

"Nothing. I was just glad Celeste wouldn't complain if she found out, considering how beautiful she looks," Fifi responded with a cheeky smile.

"I thought that you would be worried about the fact that she's from a completely different race," Orion responded, looking at Fifi with a raised brow.

Fifi snorted at him in response. "Considering that it's you, I'm even surprised that you haven't made a tree nymph yet, considering that they are the only other race closer to us," Fifi said.

Orion couldn't help but harden his smile.

"What? Don't tell me that you've already had a tree nymph partner," Fifi asked, narrowing her gaze at Orion. However, before Orion could respond, her lips suddenly broke into a frown as she chuckled deeply, "Don't worry, I was only joking. You should look at your face," Fifi added. 

Besides the fact that tree nymphs couldn't get pregnant, a tree nymph and a human becoming partners was something that the rest of the villagers, and even the tree nymphs, would laugh at once they heard of it because not only would such a thing never happen, as the men would instead focus on using their semen to help with the village's population and accumulate enough wealth for their old age, or find another woman to become partners with and have children, but even the tree nymphs themselves would never consider the possibility because it provided no value to them.

As such, it was just as ridiculous as it sounded.

Orion's smile tightened even more as he didn't know how to respond. Regardless, he shook his head internally and decided to postpone this matter for another time, seeing as this wasn't the best time to discuss it.

"Humph, it seems that you are teasing me," Orion said jokingly before he suddenly stretched his arms upwards and wrapped his arm around Fifi's shoulders, dragging her downwards while ruffling up her forehead amusingly.

Fortunately, Fifi lowered her large body frame and went along with the behaviour while joyfully laughing loudly, "Hehehe… Stop it," she said jokingly.

Meanwhile, the Prismerian Healers' Sanctuary healers looked at the two strange figures, a young man and woman playing cheerfully with each other and disregarding the world outside them. However, they quickly recognized who they were from the commotion and rumours already spreading throughout the kingdom. 

They decided to disregard the scene and only steal a few glances to get a glimpse of the foreigners from outside the mountain, the strongest warriors that had ever graced the Prismerian kingdom, as they walked past them.

Within a few minutes, Orion and Fifi quickly halted their steps in front of another door. Orion decided to check if Elysia was doing well before heading to the garden. 

As Orion opened the door and was about to enter, he stopped and looked at Fifi, who was positioning herself to stand guard outside the door.

"Don't you want to come in and see one of your sisters?" Orion asked with a raised brow.

"I thought you said that you both needed some privacy," Fifi responded, mirroring his expression.

"Don't worry; I was just concerned that she might feel intimidated and distressed about her injuries in her state of recovery," Orion responded. 

"But since, she could be better by now. Wouldn't it be better for me to introduce her to one of her beautiful elder sisters?" Orion suggested. 

Although the hierarchy for his women was based on when he had become partners with each of them, and not by their age, they never strictly adhered to such a hierarchy unless in special situations. 

They had all expressed their love for him, making the hierarchy less significant. Now that he thought about it, he realized he never asked Crystalia and the others for their ages. Nonetheless, he would be able to do so once all this was over.
