Taking Pity

Hearing Sofia’s cry for help, I couldn’t bear to just leave her there. Still invisible to all but my party, I went back over to her and cast shade once more, touching her shoulder to cast the spell on her. She glowed with a faint purple aura, signifying the spell had worked. While Sofia looked to me with relief, Lucille gave a glare.

“This isn’t right,” she said. “You shouldn’t cheat someone like this.”

“Sorry,” I whispered. “We’ll come back for you with money.” Sofia gave the others a small wave before pulling on my sleeve, signaling it was time to go. Making sure not to bump into anyone, we made our way back to the front door, slipping outside as a couple entered and the door was still open. We snuck off out of view of the restaurant, and ducked in an alley to release the spell. The purple aura dissipated and we were visible again.

“Hey,” Sofia said, pulling me in for a hug. “Thanks for that. I’ve washed enough dishes for one lifetime. Plus, sneaking out like that was kinda hot.”

“Oho? Sofia’s got a thing for bad boys?” I teased.

“And what if I do?” She counterteased despite her own blush.

“Then I’d have to do this,” I said, kissing her. She snuck her tongue into my mouth, deepening the kiss.

“Get a room! Perverts...” shouted an old man passing by the alley. Startled, we stopped the kiss.

“He’s got a point,” I said.

“Yeah...” she blushed before having a sudden look of realization, then a smirk followed by another blush. “I’ve got an idea.”

“Judging by that look, it’s a naughty one, isn’t it?” I said.

“How about we test out the limits of that new skill of yours,” she said. At first I was confused, but I caught on quickly.

“Naughty indeed. You’ve got a thing for bad boys and an exhibitionism kink, huh?” I teased. “I like it.”

“Cmon, let’s do it. Right here,” she teased, removing her cloak.

“Shade!” I said, casting the skill twice more, and we once again became invisible to others not in the party. As we frantically undressed, I noticed that even removed, our belongings still remained under the effects of the skill.

As usual, I was in awe of her now naked form. Her nipples were already hard, either due to the situation or the night’s cold air, perhaps both. I pressed her against the wall, kissing her while playing with her breasts.

“So you’re a boob guy, huh?” She teased.

“I appreciate the entire female form, but I do admit, your tits are pretty great.” I said, suckling on one nipple. She moaned. “Hey, remember, shade only hides us from sight, not sound.”

“Y-yeah,” she said, covering her mouth with her hand. “They’re just sensitive.” I continued sucking on her nipples while also snaking a hand down to play with her already moist pussy. Her muffled moans grew louder until she eventually came, her legs shaking and giving out under her as she fell to her knees.

“This works surprisingly well,” I teased. She understood my meaning and took my head into her mouth, stroking the shaft with one hand and fondling my balls with the other. She was certainly a fast learner. Her technique was surprisingly good. As she went down on me deeper, my own orgasm fast approached. Suddenly, she stopped.

“How about this?” She said, taking her breasts in her hands and wrapping them around my shaft.

“Oh fuck that’s good,” I groaned, my dick feeling like it was in heaven in her chest. As she pumped her tits around me, she even licked my tip. “How do you know about this?”

“Books,” she answered quickly before taking me back into her mouth. I wasn’t about to complain.

“I’m gonna cum,” I warned. She let me out of her mouth, focusing on the titfuck. Soon enough, I exploded all over her chest. “Fuck that was great.”

“Glad to be of service,” she smiled. “Now fuck me.”

“Of course,” I replied, my cock still ready to go, no magic ring required. She stood and I pressed her against the wall, picking her up by the legs and sliding my cock inside her. She wrapped her arms around my neck and legs around my hips for support as I raised her up and down on my cock.

“So...good,” she moaned.

“What the...?” said a voice from outside the alley. A random citizen was looking in our direction, but due to the shade skill, he saw nothing. I kissed her to silence her moans.

“Quiet, remember,” I whispered, pounding her harder.

“S-sorry,” she said, trying to contain herself while in the throes of ecstasy.

“It must have been nothing.” said the onlooker before wandering off.

“Does it excite you? Knowing anyone could walk through here and not even notice us?” I asked, teasing her as I sped up my thrusting.

“Y-yes,” she moaned. “But, I’m just glad it’s you.”

“Aww,” I said. “That’s sweet.”

“I mean it! You were the first one to believe in me. The first to give me a place to belong.” she said between moans.

“Yup. Right on top of my dick,” I joked, pounding her harder to emphasize it.

“I’m trying to have a heartfelt discussion here!” She joked back. I simply kissed her.

“I know, I’m glad I met you.” She kissed me back.

Contrasting to the lovey dovey wholesome stuff, she said, “Now fuck me harder before we get caught!”

I laughed, “Your wish is my command.” I pressed her up against the wall again, drawing her in for a kiss as I thrusted at full speed. Soon enough, we both had our orgasms, her quivering pussy making me unload inside of her again. I set her back down, unsure if my sudden lightheadedness was just from the afterglow or not.

“You okay?” She whispered.

“Just...lightheaded...” I admitted, bending down to grab my things.

“You’re probably running low on mana,” she said. “Most people get lightheaded when they do.”

“Then that means the skill is about to wear off! Quick, get dressed!” I said, scrambling to clothe myself. Barely succeeding, the magic aura faded, signaling the end of the skill’s duration. I looked to Sofia, who was nude from the waist up except her cloak, which she draped over herself.

“Uh, a little help, please,” she said, suddenly shy. Chuckling, I stepped to block her from view as she finished dressing, only peeking a little bit. When she finished, she gave me a peck on the cheek. “Thanks.”

“My pleasure,” I said. “Literally.”

“I’d say that was a successful test, wouldn’t you?” She asked playfully.

“Actually, yeah. Aside from the awesome sex, I learned quite a bit about how Shade works,” I said.

“Oh?” She inquired.

“Yeah. First off, it works on our clothes and other belongings, even if we take them off. Secondly, it seems I can keep it up as long as my mana lasts. Then, I also know more about magic in general now.” I elaborated.

“Good to hear my idea had more beneficial effects than just having a good time,” she joked. I kissed her once more, leading her out of the alley.

“You two!” shouted an angry, yet familiar voice. I turned to see Flora and Lucille approaching us. They were pretty much drenched, their wet clothes clinging to their chests, and also being slightly see through.

“Out already?” I asked.

“Already!? It’s been an hour! Where’d you two go! You abandoned us there to do dishes! Do you know how hard it is to do dishes with one hand!? I thought you were going to return with our money to pay the restaurant!” Lucille angrily yelled.

“Sorry, sorry. We got sidetracked,” I said, trying to calm her down. Flora merely gave us a look of condolence.

“Grr...fine.” She sighed, giving up.

“Eh?” Sofia said.

“You both are just lucky I leveled up from that,” she said. “Otherwise, I would be angry.”

“You leveled up?” I asked. That isn’t even her angry? What does angry Lucille look like?

“Indeed. I chose to invest in an ability called Full Guard. It allows me to greatly increase my defenses for a short time. It should prove useful against large enemies like that manticore, should we come up against them again,” Lucille said.

“Good to know,” I said. “Let’s get going to the inn.”

“Fine. All worked out in the end, so I suppose I shall let you two off the hook,” Lucille said, walking off and leading the way to the inn.

“Sorry about that,” said Flora.

“That’s our line,” Sofia said apologetically. “We should’ve helped you guys out.”

“It wasn’t all that bad,” Flora admitted. “I think Lucille is just fed up with being injured.”

“She’ll be fine for one more day. Tomorrow we can have our new cleric companion heal her,” Sofia said.

“That’s true,” I said, following after Lucille with the others.
