A Degenerate's Tale

The next day, the party gathered in front of the hotel resort. Sheryl fidgetted nervously when she saw the white carriage. As a pure maiden, last night's experience was easily one of the lewdest things she has ever done. And to further cement the fact, the slightly larger size of her breasts will forever remind her of the hot spring.

Having a huge orgasm while getting a breast massage from her client. How embarrassing was that? Thankfully, her party members were not paying attention back then.

Sheryl looked down at her chest again. As a woman, she couldn't help but be happy with her bigger size. Her fox tail wagged side to side when she thought of this. Maybe she should ask Madam Roth for help again? No no. She would be too embarrassed to show her face... Fortunately, this town was the last stop before their destination, Dai.

The trees became more sparse as they approached closer and closer to Dai. Dai was situated by the sea, which meant more sand, flat ground, and less fluorescent trees. Many newlyweds could travel to Dai for their honeymoon because of its perfect weather, and flourishing city.

Sheryl's mind wandered off to her perfect honeymoon Dai. But before that, she must first find a partner. Maybe a handsome beastman, or even a noble elf. Then... then they can do lewd things together...

"Leader? Leader?" Paula's voice awakened Sheryl from her daze.

"Uoh?"

p "Hah... You're totally dozing off."

"No, I'm not!" Sheryl said with her ears perked up.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The ground shook.

"Uh... Well, can you tell us what to do about that thing then?"

A reptilian-like creature stepped out of the trees. Its huge body was easily doubled the size of the carriage. It was green in colour and its silhouette easily blocked out the sun. Taking a closer look, one would find that this giant lizard creature had wings on its back, and its face was much more elongated than a regular lizard. It was an Earth Dragon, an A-Rank creature. Despite having "dragon" in its name, it was not a true dragon because of its lack of intelligence and inability to use magic.

Sheryl was angry and embarrassed from her daydream. She said in a loud voice, "I'll handle it!"

The legendary sword, Sakura Death appeared in her dainty hands. The beautiful pink blade glittered elegantly from the sunlight.

"Grrrrr..." The Earth Dragon took a step back cautiously at the aura of the legendary sword. However, Sheryl's small figure was not intimidating enough for it to back off completely.

"You came at the perfect time..." Sheryl said with a smile that did not appear like a smile. "I just happened to need a punching bag at this moment!"

"Grrr!!!"

Instantly, Sheryl appeared on top of the Earth Dragon's head. At the position she was previously at, an afterimage lingered for a brief second before disappearing.

Bang!

Sheryl slammed the handle of her sword against the forehead of the Earth Dragon, making its yellow eyes roll back.

"Aiya, who pissed the leader off?"

"I don't know, but she's been in a daze since this morning."

"You think that happened?"

"That?"

"Midlife crisis you know? Who knows how old she is even though she looks that young. I've known her 10 years and her appearance has never changed. I would bet that she's going into her middle years..."

Bang!

The Earth Dragon fell to the ground, completely dead. Sheryl stepped out from behind its dead body, completely unscatched.

"Alexia?" Sheryl said with a smile on her face.

"Yes?" Alexia replied innocently and took a step back. "Please don't walk towards me with your sword out while smiling like that, leader."

Sheryl lifted her sword up. "I'm only 28! I'm not going into my middle years!"

Shiing!

"Nooo! Forgive me!"

Later that night, the party settled around a campfire once again. By tomorrow morning, they would arrive arrive at Dai.

Everyone in the Wild Roses was asleep in their tents with the exception of Sheryl, who was on night duty. She sat by the campfire and lovingly cleaned her sword, Sakura Death. Her mind began to drift back to her earlier days.

Flashback*

Not long after the sun rose, Sheryl's eye abruptly shot opened. Her mind felt refreshed as she slowly removed herself from her bed. Her bedroom was a simple one. Wooden tiles made up the floor, and the sunlight shone through the window. She had just recently turned 14 a few days ago, reaching the age of maturity for a foxkin.

She stepped out of her room and went outside. The air was fresh, filling her lungs with life and she instinctively lifted her arms up for a stretch. Feeling wide awake now, she grabbed the broom by the shrine's entrance and began to sweep the leaves away. It was her daily routine.

After she was done, she went to the back of the temple to wash up. It was a simple process. All the water was stored in barrels so she had to scoop the water out and rinse it over her body. When she was done, her ears were shivering from the cold. It could be considered as a part of her mental training.

She hurriedly donned her shrine maiden outfit which consisted of a red hakama trousers and a white kosode. By the time she finished dressing, she was no longer cold.

She was the Miko of the Crimson Fox Temple, and also the heir to the Crimson Fox clan. In the Beast Kingdom, the Council governed the kingdom. Each member of the council was the strongest variant of each clan, and the Crimson Fox clan was the clan that represented the Fox Clan within the council.

But despite having such high status, Sheryl lived a simple, humble life.
