"Grandma Derry…" Orion blurted out as he took in the sight of the mischievous gilf resting her palms on his chest while straddling him. His gaze shifted towards the door, noticing Grandma Vivian entering the hut. "Grandma Vivian," he said, alternating his gaze between the two beautiful elderly women before him.
Before Grandma Vivian could respond, she rushed to help Grandma Derry up. "Get up, Derry! Can't you see he's still injured?" she exclaimed angrily, forcefully pulling Grandma Derry and causing her to reluctantly stand on her feet.
Once Grandma Derry was up, Grandma Vivian wasted no time and proceeded to pull Orion up as well. "Are you alright, Orion?" she asked, her voice filled with genuine concern.
Orion nodded his head, his face displaying a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, I'm fine," he responded, leaning on Grandma Vivian for support as he was lifted up. Grandma Derry also lent a helping hand, pulling him up until he was standing on his one good right leg, while his injured leg remained raised in the air.
Observing Orion's posture, Grandma Vivian immediately noticed his injured leg and asked with a worried tone, "Are you still feeling unwell?"
Orion nodded in affirmation and explained, "No, it's just my leg. Aunt Greta used her gift to heal my injured leg, but it needs a few hours to fully recover and heal properly."
Grandma Vivian nodded in understanding, empathizing with Orion's situation. She too had experienced the effects of Greta's gift when she strengthened her womb. While not particularly painful, it felt like tiny spikes pinching at her insides. So considering the numerous injuries Orion had sustained, it made sense that the healing process would take some time.
Grandma Derry immediately grabbed onto Orion's shoulders and insisted, "But where are you going? Come on, you need to rest." However, to her surprise, Orion stood his ground and shook his head firmly, expressing, "I need to go somewhere first. I'll rest when I get back."
Both Grandma Derry and Vivian looked at him in disbelief. They couldn't understand why he would prioritize something else over his well-being, especially after narrowly escaping a severe injury from the Vylkr vines.
However, even though Grandma Derry understood the importance of Orion's well-being and knew that she had to ensure he didn't entertain any thoughts of leaving the hut until he was feeling better, her curiosity about his destination lingered. Taking a moment, she asked cautiously, "So, where exactly are you heading to, then?"
Grandma Vivian, on the other hand, wore a disapproving frown as she heard Derry's question. Given what they had learned the previous night, it was clear that Orion shouldn't be considering going anywhere until his overall condition improved. However, her curiosity also gnawed at her, compelling her to hear his response.
After all, it had to be an incredibly serious matter if he intended to go out with only one functioning leg.
Orion looked at the two of them, sensing their intentions and concerns. He knew that if he revealed his destination, they might try to stop him from going. However, he also realized that he couldn't make the journey alone with his injured leg.
Taking a deep breath, Orion carefully chose his words, "I need your help because there is a promise that I made....." he started, deciding to mention the part about how he plans to have a special and unforgettable kushi experience with Ursa, as it would be her first time. He also mentioned that she was also his partner, emphasizing his commitment to keeping his word. ".....and if you help me in getting there on time, I promise to make it up to both of you," he added, hoping to convince them to lend him their support.
As soon as Orion finished speaking, Grandma Derry couldn't help but instinctively gulp at his words. It seemed that instead of going through the effort of ensuring her plans for getting pregnant went smoothly, this opportunity was presenting itself effortlessly.
"First time…" Grandma Vivian muttered thoughtfully her voice filled with curiosity and confusion as she tried to make sense of Orion's words. Meanwhile, Orion heard her comment and realized that he should have omitted that part, especially considering the nature of the world they were currently living in.
Meanwhile, Grandma Derry abruptly blurted out, "She is also your partner," before she suddenly paused, appearing stunned as though she had just remembered something. "Is she your fourth partner?" Grandma Derry suddenly asked, squinting her eyes at Orion as she eyed him. But her question was enough to snap Grandma Vivian out of her daze as she also realized that she had been focusing on the wrong subject.
"No," Orion shook his head in disagreement, "Fiona the well woman is my fourth partner, and Ursa is my sixth."
"Fiona the well woman is your sixth," Grandma Derry nodded her head in understanding before she suddenly thought of something once more. "FIONA THE WELL WOMAN IS YOUR SIX...."
However, before she could finish her sentence, Orion swiftly used his hand to cover her mouth, preventing her from screaming. Amid their struggle, their balance was disrupted, causing both of them to fall to the floor with a soft "thud." Orion, in his attempt to protect Grandma Derry, ended up bearing the brunt of the impact as he tightly held onto her and rolled to cushion the fall.
"Can we please stop doing this?" Orion's muffled voice pleaded, trapped beneath the concealed enormous breast of Grandma Derry. After a moment, Grandma Derry regained her composure and pulled herself up, straightening her back. Straddling Orion's waist once more, she fixed her gaze on him, staring intently.
"If I help you meet this Ursa so that you can have your kushi," Grandma Derry began, her voice filled with anticipation, ".....will you at least promise to give me your answer?".
Listening to Grandma Derry's response, Orion nodded his head solemnly, taking her words seriously, "Yes." Once he had given Ursa the best experience she had ever known, fulfilling his promise to her, he would then turn his attention to Grandma Derry, if she was willing to wait. He remembered his previous words to her and was determined not to let them go unfulfilled.
