This is the part four of the adventures of Emma, the Elven Warrior. If you missed part three, here is the link: Part Three and if you haven’t read anything for the series yet, then here is the link to the rest of the series: Quicklinks

Emma brought Elana to a stop beside Bythenia’s tower and tied off the reins to a nearby tree. Their approach had been as slow as possible so they wouldn’t be heard, but if Bythenia was as powerful of a mage as Emma had been led to believe, there was every chance she already knew they were here.

“Keep an eye out while I get ready!” Emma instructed Teran as she started to prepare herself for entering the tower.

She took the three potions out of her bag and slid them into a pouch at her waist. Emma detached the shield from Elana’s saddlebags and retrieved the oil she requested from the Claysends. It was an oil of magic resistance that should allow her to block oncoming spells with her shield. With a small rag, she began to slowly coat the shield in the liquid, allowing her to feel a little more secure in her ability to survive the upcoming bout. Emma checked over her sword and her new dagger to make sure they were nice and sharp before she felt satisfied in her preparations.

“Ok! Let’s go!” Emma said at last.

The two of them slowly approached the main door and pushed their shoulders against the large wooden blockades to open them. They scraped along the stone floor as they slid into place. Clearly they had not been touched in a very long time.

The entrance chamber was a wide circular room that opened up into two separate chambers to the sides and had a set of winding stairs set to the back of the room. The room didn’t contain much in the way of furniture. It mostly seemed to serve as a vanity space for Bythenia’s collection of art, statues, and various other finely crafted wares. You could barely see the walls behind the displays that covered them.

Emma drew her, still cold, sword the moment they entered the chamber, this was not a time to be caught off guard. She knew a little about how to fight mages, but she had never actually done it before. So she needed every advantage she could take. Emma and Teran quietly made their way to the doorway behind the stairs, hoping that the dungeons would be in the lowest part of the tower.

Upon quick investigation it turned out they were right, the stairs opened up into a short corridor with three barred cells on either side of the corridor. Most of them contained monsters of varying shapes and sizes, each one an amalgamation of animal parts topped off with a crown. The central cell on the left side was the only one with a live person in it. The two of them carefully rushed to the cell door to see the Tiefling they had been asked to rescue.

Yui had light pink skin with slightly darker horns trailing back over her hot pink hair that bounced in ringlets over her shoulders. Her frame was powerfully built, though in a way that allowed for flexibility rather than musculature. She was lying on the small bed at the back of her cell as they approached, her pointed tail twisted curiously over her legs and her eyes focused on Teran.

“Teran! What are you doing here? And who is this?” Yui rose from her bed and slowly approached the bars.

“She is an adventurer. We came here to save you!” Teran explained quickly, keeping his tone as hushed as possible.

“There’s got to be a key around here somewhere …” Emma muttered, glancing to the back wall to see if there was any hanging nearby “… We’ve already found her. Surely we’re not going to have to go further in before we leave?”

“What do you need a key for?” Yui asked, raising her hand with a slight flourish. At first there was nothing in her fingers, but swiftly a lock pick was created between her fingertips.

“Wow!” Emma exclaimed as she watched Yui stick the pick into the lock and start trying to open the door. She hadn’t expected Yui to be magical, and she made a mental note to ask her about it if they got out of here.

“Why didn’t you use that to escape sooner?” Teran asked.

“And where would I have gone?” Yui smirked, raising an eyebrow quizzically. She continued working on the lock, making excitable noises with each successful probe. Her tongue poked slightly out of the corner of her mouth as she drew close.

“You know there is a simpler way of opening the cell doors!” a voice told them from the back of the room.

Emma snapped her head in that direction to see the final flickering of purple magic from a teleport spell. A woman stood in the remains of the spell, her hands clasped together in front of her. Her hair was black that faded into purple at the tips, while her lips were shaded in a plum lipstick. Her dress and cloak were beautifully maintained, consisting of the finest purple and black fabric. All of which was adorned in golden jewellery. The woman held up her hand and with a snap of her fingers every cell unlocked and the doors slowly opened “You see?”

Emma glanced back down the corridor and watched as the monsters began to creep out of their cells, all the while looking in their direction. They were surrounded.

“Do you know how to fight?” Emma quickly asked Yui. When the pink Tiefling nodded her head, Emma handed off her shield and new dagger before saying “You two deal with the monsters! I’ll deal with Bythenia!”

Without waiting for a response, Emma raised her sword and marched towards the sorceress, who brought her hands apart and waited expectantly for the Elven soldier to approach.

“You’ll deal with me, will you? Might I at least know the name of my vanquisher?” Bythenia taunted.

“Emma Venslort of Unosvil!”

“Well Miss Venslort, introduce me to my maker!” with a wave of her hand, Bythenia summoned purple fire in the palms of her hands. Emma side-stepped the blast of purple magic flung at her and closed in two more steps. She struck out quickly four times, not wanting to give the Sorceress a chance to cast any spells. Each blow was parried by a spectral shield Bythenia was creating in the seconds before the impact. 

Bythenia released a surge of fire towards Emma’s face, which the warrior just barely managed to dodge. Using the momentum, Emma spun quickly and sliced her blade along Bythenia’s stomach, creating a thin line of blood across the chest and causing the sorceress to yelp in pain.

In retaliation, Bythenia reached out to the side of the room and wrapped one of the nearby crates in her magic. Knowing she didn’t have the time to dodge, Emma braced herself against the blow but still found herself flying across the room, crashing into the bars of the closest cell and collapsing onto the ground. She groaned in pain from both impacts, but knew she had no time to wallow in her agony as the sorceress was already pressing the attack.

Bythenia created a long sword of purple energy out of nothing. It floated in the air above Bythenia’s head as it came into view, and on the sorceress’ command it was already starting to move towards Emma to pierce her chest. Not being in a position to quickly dodge, Emma raised her sword in front of her, hoping that it might lessen some of the impact, though knowing deep down that without the oil coating it could do very little.

The blade flew towards Emma with incredible speed and crashed against her blade, she watched as the spell shattered like glass against her blade and dissipated into nothing. Her confusion doubled when the blade began to glow with a cyan light and she found herself unharmed after something that should have killed her.

“Don’t worry! I’ve got your back!” Harriet’s voice echoed in Emma’s head. She didn’t know how she knew it, but something told her that the voice came from the blade.

“How are you not dead?” Bythenia shouted, staring at Emma with confusion but also a little fear.

“You pissed off the wrong bar maid!” Emma smiled, using the bars to drag herself to her feet.

“Object possession, hm? I guess I’ll just have to incinerate that sword once I’m done with you!” she snarled, allowing her purple flames to dance between her fingers.

Emma surged forwards, slicing her glowing blade through each ball of fire Bythenia threw at her, each one dissipating without effect upon being hit. She swung the blade in a downwards arc towards Bythenia’s shoulder, but the sorceress dodged to the side. Emma quickly turned the blade, dragging it towards her, but Bythenia seemed to be learning and creating the shield beside Emma’s wrist to block her movement.

Out of the corner of her eye, Emma caught another box flying towards her. She quickly stepped back, allowing the box to fly between them and crash against the far wall. Emma was about to continue her attack when she realised Bythenia was not done, another crate was coming towards her from the other side. Emma ducked beneath it just before the box flew over her head.

Remaining on the ground, Emma sliced Bythenia along her shins. The sorceress cried out from the deep wound, and was distracted enough that she found herself unprepared for Emma’s next move. The warrior pushed off the ground and drove her blade straight into Bythenia’s chest. The sorceress’ mouth went agape as the cold steel was twisted in her chest.

“Allow me to introduce you to Asmodeus. I’m sure he’ll be pleased to see you again!” Emma sneered as she ripped her blade free. Bythenia dropped to her knees, confusion glistening in her eyes at her unexpected wound.

“I was meant to be written in history books, and remembered forever!” Bythenia muttered sadly, her breaths covered in shallow breaths.

Emma glanced behind her when she heard loud clattering sounds from that direction. It seemed as Bythenia was fading, so were her monsters. Emma returned her gaze to the sorceress as the rest of her body collapsed.

“Unfortunately I don’t think you’ll be leaving anything behind!” Emma told Bythenia as her eyes slowly closed and she stopped breathing.

Emma rushed over to Teran and Yui, the two of them nursed a number of gashes and light cuts from their fight “Are you two alright?”

“I’ve had better days!” Yui smirked as she leaned against the cells. She held Emma’s dagger and shield out to her once she got close “Thanks for these by the way!”

“I think we ought to spend the night here Emma, ride back in the morning! It’s indoors, and thanks to you, the threat within it is now gone!” Teran posed between ragged breaths.

The logic seemed sound to Emma, but even though the tower should be safe now without Bythenia. Emma figured they would be better off if they erred on the side of caution anyway, they were in a mage’s tower after all.

“Alright, but we should check out the rest of the tower for any more monsters or traps before we settle down!” Emma told them.

“Good idea! If there are any traps, I think I can help get rid of them!” Yui added as the three of them started to make their way out of the dungeon.

*************

Emma, Teran and Yui spent the next few hours searching every inch of the tower for any remaining traps or enemies. Every so often, Yui would seemingly cast a spell that had no effect, but a few moments later, she would point out a magical trap ahead of them, which she would set about disarming with additional magic.

As the three of them settled into a slow and comfortable rhythm, Emma began to feel more and more like there was no more cause for concern in this tower, which allowed her to start up a conversation with Yui about the surprising fact that she knew magic.

“I learnt magic to keep up with my extra curricula activities …” Yui began to explain after a little probing from Emma “… You can’t tell my parents what I’m about to tell you ok?”

“I don’t have any reason to!” Emma promised.

“You see, the life of a noble’s daughter is not particularly exciting. But all the tales I’ve heard of daring rogues and fearless thieves are incredibly exciting, so I couldn’t help but feel drawn to a lifestyle like that. Not to mention, I happen to live in an area filled with very wealthy nobles!” Yui stopped her story to cast another spell to help her look for traps. Once she was satisfied, there weren’t any around, she gestured for Emma and Teran to move on.

“At nightfall, I like to slip into my neighbour’s houses and steal something from them to test my skills. If they never realise, then I succeeded and I can keep the item. If they do, then it means I failed and I send it back to them! Over the years, they have begun to increase their security, due to many failed attempts, so in order to combat that, I learnt a little magic, so I detect and disarm traps, and also secret away certain items on a whim!” Yui explained. All the while, Emma made note of her abilities in the back of her head. There was a good chance she might have a use for someone like her in the future. Plus she could empathise with choosing her future career path based on stories.

“Wait! That’s why you wanted to learn magic?” Teran asked, a little aghast.

“Yes! I assumed you figured that out when I ask you to find me a magic teacher?” Yui replied, a little shocked by the admittance.

“No I just assumed you had an interest in it?” he said, ever so slightly sheepish.

“Well in that case you better not tell Lord and Lady Claysend!” Emma chimed in, hoping that he would bite back against this. It had been almost a week since she last felt Horatio’s cock, and she was really craving it. This could give her an excuse to sate her desire in the meantime. But Teran didn’t say anything in return after that. In fact, the rest of their search was virtually silent.

Once the three of them were satisfied that the tower was safe, they had a brief dinner before they decided to turn in for the night. Not wanting to be in Bythenia’s room, Yui took a smaller guest chamber, while Emma was allowed the expansive and highly decorated room that had once belonged to the sorceress.

Once Emma and Teran had bid Yui good night, Teran sidled up to Emma and whispered into her ear “Why shouldn’t I tell the Lord and Lady?”

Emma smiled at his challenge and took him by the arm. She quickly, yet casually, led him away from Yui’s door and waited until they were far enough away from the door before she spoke.

“I’ll make it worth your while if you don’t tell them!” Emma said with a seductive tone.

“And how will you do that?”

Emma slipped her hand along Teran’s shirt and into his pants. She carefully touched his penis with her thumb and two fingers, and slowly began to stroke the shaft. It quickly began to rise from her attention.

“I think there was something you wanted to do to me on the way here?” Emma’s strokes were firm yet slow. She didn’t want him to get too excited too soon.

“I did!”

“Well I just happen to have a room with a comfortable Queen-size bed, would you be interested in testing it out with me?”

“Yes!”

“And in return you won’t mention Yui’s hobbies?” she carefully released her grip on Teran’s cock as she asked to make sure he was well-aware of the consequences of his choice, though at the same time, she wasn’t particularly invested it, she was mostly looking for the sex.

“I won’t!”

“Good!”

They reached Bythenia’s chamber quickly after that, and Emma immediately pushed Teran inside the room. She tossed him onto the bed, letting him roughly bounce on the mattress. Before he was even settled, Emma was tugging at his belt and tossing it aside. She ripped open his pants and pulled them down to his ankles, allowing her to see his cock again.

She took a hold of the shaft and hovered her head over it. Emma let her tongue hang out of her mouth and dangle as far from her lips as she could let it go. She watched him carefully as it drifted closer to the head, wanting to see every expression he made. Emma knew he wanted her to suck on it, but instead she let her saliva drool over his cock and pulled her head away.

Emma began to work her hands along his shaft from the top to the bottom, rubbing her saliva into his cock. She even added a little more when it was growing dry to make it nice and wet. Only once she was satisfied with how soaked his cock was did she begin to stroke it properly again. She slid her hand up and down his cock from root to head. Her massaging was slow and steady, but already she could hear him groaning beneath her grasp.

Her free hand slid between his legs and her fingers wrapped around his balls, they stroke the sack without proper determination, purely just trying to tease and tickle his stones. The hand on his shaft slid to the base and picked up the pace on the lower half of his cock, pumping and teasing with tender care.

Teran moaned loudly and slowly sighed her name, a sound that Emma quite enjoyed. She could tell that Teran was close to finishing, the pulsing in his cock being a giveaway to that fact. She picked up the pace for the final few moments to expedite the release, and after a few seconds, she could feel his cum beginning to drip over her hands. She continued pumping him a little bit longer, having learnt from Horatio that it takes a little bit of work to get it all out.

“How was that?” she asked as she pulled back from him and stood next to the bed.

“That was great!” he told her, his words breathy as he came down from his high.

“Thanks! That’s the first time I’ve jerked a guy off!” she admitted, starting undo her own belt so she could remove her own clothing “So, now that we’ve done that. What would you like to do to me?”

Teran raised his head and watched as Emma slowly removed her clothing. She knew he loved her breasts, so she kept her shirt on the longest to hide them from him. Once her clothing was off, Emma decided to spin for Teran so that he could see every part of her properly.

“I liked the idea you proposed the other day. I’d like to fuck you up the arse tonight!” Teran told her. It was not the request Emma had expected, but it was also not something she had ever experienced before and she couldn’t deny that she was interested to see how it felt.

“Alright. Take off the rest of your clothes then, and let me feel what you can do!”

Teran sat up and quickly began to remove his clothing. He struggled a little with his pants as Emma had bunched them up around his boots, but eventually he got them off. Teran was quite the muscular man, though not particularly toned. He had thin hairs spread out around his chest, stomach and legs, though it was all significantly more prominent around his genitals.

Emma turned away once he was undressed and climbed onto the bed. She lay completely flat on her stomach with her head beside the pillows in case she wanted them. She turned her head towards Teran and smiled “Well? My arse is waiting for you!”

Teran returned her smile and climbed onto the bed after her. She turned her head away as she wanted to be surprised when he entered her. Emma could feel him slide his legs over hers and press his cock against her arse cheeks. He slowly began to run the length of his cock along the crack of her arse. Each time he rubbed his cock against her, she felt herself grow more and more aroused.

“Go on Teran! Give me your cock!” she moaned impatiently, her arousal forcing the words out of her mouth.

“As you wish …” Emma felt Teran grab her arse and spread her cheeks apart slightly. She felt the tip pressing against her anus, and she groaned again as he started teasing her again “… Once I’m ready!”

Emma released a light whimper as he continued pressing the tip into her arse, but refusing to go any further. The more he played with her, the more she realised this must be his pay back for all the times she teased him.

“Are you sure you want this now? We could always save this for another time! I’ve already cum after all, so I don’t really need to keep going!” he taunted her, making her worried that he wasn’t actually going to fuck her tonight.

“No, I want this now! I want to feel your cock inside me. Please fuck me Teran!” her words shuddering through her continually building arousal.

“I don’t know! As I said, I already came, so what’s in it for me?”

Emma closed her eyes so she could re-centre herself and bargain properly, though the task was made more difficult by Teran’s continued probing against her arse. It led to her response coming more from her horny mind than her rational one.

“If you fuck me now, I’ll suck you off when we get back to Tinnoth!” she offered.

“Ok! That works for me!”

With that, Teran began to slowly push his cock into her arse. She could feel it stretching the walls of her arse as half of it slid into her. He laid on top of her to press the second half inside her with ease, and the two of them groaned once it was fully inside.

Teran released her cheeks to let them clamp around his cock and began to slowly thrust into her. Emma rested her head on her hands and let out a long sigh as she enjoyed his warm up pumps. She figured he would pick up the pace and go rougher momentarily, and got herself ready to enjoy that. For now, she would enjoy this erotic feeling of his cock moving around in her arse.

Emma saw Teran take the bed sheets in an iron grip as he groaned in her ear. Hoping to inspire him to go faster, Emma decided to clench her butt cheeks, tightening her walls around his cock. Even more so than before, his moans grew loudly with each pump. His lips caressed her neck, evoking a sigh from her. Teran’s movements grew just a little faster, enough for his balls to tap erotically against her arse with each thrust.

“Good God Teran! It’s so good! Fuck!” Emma cried, still patiently waiting for him to pick up speed but the build-up was definitely worth it.

“I knew you would!” Teran wrapped his arms around her. She could feel him pinning her to the bed and grew excited ‘Here he comes! Go on! Fuck me as hard as you can!’

Teran pulled her close to him and she could feel his shallow breaths in her ear as he thrust into her. Then she felt his cock throb inside her as he pumped deeper and deeper into her. He released a long moan into her ear as Emma felt his cum flood into her arse ‘No, no, no. Don’t tell me you’re done!’

He pumped her arse a few more times before she felt his slick cock slide out of her arse as he rolled onto his back beside her. Emma sighed with disappointment as she felt his cum dripping out of her, but none of her own. She turned towards him and raised her eyebrow.

“All done?” she asked accusingly, though Teran did not seem to notice her tone.

“Yeah! That was great!” he told her, his words slurring and breathy from the excitement.

Emma rolled over and glanced around the room. Her eyes settled on her sword and a dressing gown made of black and purple silk. She rose from the bed and wrapped the gown around herself. Teran looked over in confusion as she picked up her sword.

“Where are you going?” he asked.

“I’m just going to walk around the castle! There’s something I need to investigate!”

“Do you want help?”

“No! It’s more of a personal thing!” a statement which seemed to satisfy Teran as he rolled over in the bed, pulling the blankets over himself. Emma was certain he was asleep before she had even left the room.

Once outside, Emma strode quickly from the door at first, but slowed her pace once she was certain no one could hear her. She strapped the sword belt around her waist and drew the blade from its scabbard. She gripped the handle with both hands and let the flat edge of the blade face her.

“Harriet? Are you still there?” Emma asked, keeping her voice low just in case.

A response came from the blade.

“Harriet? Did I really hear you earlier?” Emma raised her voice a little, hoping it would push through.

The blade began to glow the same cyan colour as before, but this time Emma could see Harriet’s reflection in the blade where her own should have been.

“Yes Emma, you did!” she replied, her voice soft though it seemed to be drawing nearer.

“How are you in my blade?” she asked, a little confused about what was going on.

“When I was given the option to pass into the afterlife, I realised I didn’t want to go. That I wasn’t done with life yet! I wanted to see more of the world, and I wanted that bitch dead. Both of which I could do with you, so I attached my soul to the blade!” Harriet explained.

“Well thank you for helping me! I probably would have died without your help. But I do wonder, you said your soul is attached to the blade, can you leave it?” Emma wondered, still trying to come to terms with this situation.

“No! My essence is changed, so I can no longer take physical form. I’m also not sure whether or not I can pass into the afterlife anymore, though I don’t really think I want to! I like it here!” Harriet chuckled.

“So since you’re basically in my sword for good, does that mean I can cut through spells anytime?” Emma asked excitedly, deciding not to push the issue on the whole separating thing.

“Yes! There are also a number of other things I can help you with. Since I am attached to the spirit world, I can always let you know when Undead related entities are near you!” Harriet explained cheerily.

“Ooo that could be quite useful! If I recall there was another job I was thinking about taking that involved Undead!” Emma blurted out.

“Then I guess we know what job we should take on next!”

“There’s also one other useful thing you bring …” Emma muttered with a wry smile.

“What’s that?”

“I’ll now always have some to talk to on the long journeys I take!”

“Exactly! So does that mean you’re excited about this?” Harriet asked. Emma could see the nervousness in her reflection as she spoke.

“Of course! I am a little disappointed you don’t still have a body, because I would love to fuck you again. But I’m happy to have you around!” Emma admitted, a slight chuckle coming from Harriet.

“I wish I could fuck you again too! But it was either this, or the afterlife!”

“Then I think you made the right choice!” Emma said cheerily, bringing the blade close to her face and kissing the flat edge “I look forward to our upcoming adventures together Harriet!”

Harriet blew a kiss to Emma which made the cold hilt warm ever so slightly “As do I! It’s going to be a lot of fun, I can tell!”
