To You, Who Will Die Alone in Paradise Chapter 20

“Is this for eating? It smells like dried grass.”

Dandeleon found that simple question so funny that he giggled and laughed for a long time.

“It’s not for eating, it’s for smoking. An adult thing that our dear High Elf doesn’t know about~.”

Kellewen’s face stiffened.

“Is this perhaps a cigarette?”

It was the first time he had seen one in person. He had remembered what Dandeleon had mentioned in passing and had looked it up in a book. At the time, he thought it was something he would never see again in his life, but….

“Huh? You said you didn’t know what a cigarette was before. Was that a lie?”

“I didn’t know, so I looked it up. This… you shouldn’t do this, Your Highness. A cigarette might have a slight analgesic effect, but in the long run, it will make your body sick.”

“Hey, this isn’t a strong one.”

Despite Kellewen’s dissuasion, Dandeleon was adamant. He rubbed the tip of the cigarette with his fingers and put it in his mouth. Then he started rummaging through his coat pockets again.

“Please stop.”

Kellewen sat next to Dandeleon to stop him. The large, long sofa had plenty of space left even with the two of them sitting on it. Dandeleon moved his body into the empty space and reached for the candlestick on the table.

“Your Highness, that’s dangerous!”

“Get away. Before I set your hair on fire.”

Dandeleon waved the candlestick toward Kellewen as if shooing away an animal. Kellewen wished the candle would just go out, but one of the three candles stubbornly survived and lit Dandeleon’s cigarette.

Putting the candlestick back on the table, Dandeleon took a deep drag on the cigarette.

“Your Highness.”

“What does it matter if it makes my body sick?”

Kellewen’s worried words were cut off before they could even begin. Dandeleon glared at Kellewen. His eyes were unusually aggressive.

“Your Highness, I think you’re very drunk….”

“Hey, High Elf.”

Dandeleon blew cigarette smoke right into Kellewen’s face.

It was a great discourtesy, but Kellewen was not angry. He was just resentful of himself. If he had stopped Dandeleon when he was emptying glass after glass by himself, he would not have gotten this drunk, but he had been fooled by his words that everyone drank like this in private.

What should he do now? According to what Kellewen had read in a book, the effect of cigarettes was stronger when accompanied by alcohol. Not only would his mind become more clouded, but it would also be much worse for his body. It was when Kellewen was thinking of forcibly taking the cigarette from Dandeleon.

“I really hate you.”

Dandeleon uttered a completely unexpected statement.

It felt like his heart had dropped. It was instantaneous, but his heart ached to the point of making his mind go dizzy.

That fact shocked Kellewen again.

Dandeleon was drunk and not in his right mind. Knowing that, Kellewen was still hurt. It was the first time in his more than 100 years of life that he had been so shaken by another’s words.

“They say a High Elf’s lifespan is over a thousand years, and you’re going to offer that entire lifespan to a single tree?”

Dandeleon put the cigarette back in his mouth and mumbled.

“What kind of nonsense is that….”

“If the Guardian Tree lives, then the continent and the life on the continent will also live, will they not?”

Kellewen came to his senses and composed himself. For now, he had to soothe Dandeleon first.

“My sacrifice will be what saves you, Your Highness.”

“You keep talking like that, but what does that have to do with me?”

Dandeleon said, full of scorn.

“Because I’m going to die soon.”

Kellewen’s heart, which he thought had regained its composure, began to pound again. The aftershock was less than before, but the ominousness that followed the end of his words lingered for much longer.

“What do you mean by that….”

“Haha, it’s a joke.”

Dandeleon stubbed out the cigarette on the table. It was an act he would normally have cautioned against, but now he did not even notice it.

“Just something I’m saying because I’m drunk….”

Dandeleon said so and unbuttoned his clothes. Kellewen, startled by his previous words, realized this fact late.

“Your Highness?!”

When he came to his senses, Dandeleon had already thrown off his shirt.

“And this too, is just something I’m doing because I’m drunk.”

Dandeleon, revealing his white naked torso, pressed close to Kellewen. The smell of alcohol, the smell of cigarettes, and Dandeleon’s body odor, all mixed together, hit him. Kellewen’s mind, which had been fine with a whole bottle of alcohol, suddenly became hazy.

“Your Highness, please stop this behavior.”

“No, you stop and listen to what I have to say first.”

Kellewen turned his head and tried to push Dandeleon away. But Dandeleon’s voice was firm. Unlike before, his pronunciation was also clear. Thinking that he might have sobered up, Kellewen inadvertently looked back at Dandeleon.

And he found Dandeleon, who had taken off his pants as well.

“I’m not trying to have sex right now, you know? I’ll respect that you won’t do something you can’t take responsibility for.”

“Y-you say you’ll respect that, but why are you taking off your clothes….”

Kellewen said, squeezing his eyes shut. But his effort to block out the sight failed in a few seconds.

“Where are you touching now…!”

Dandeleon, now naked, had this time pulled down Kellewen’s pants as well.

“I’m just going to enjoy myself, so you just watch, High Elf.”

The situation was not looking good. Dandeleon was just as, no, even more adamant than he had been at the Fountain of the Dead Prince. Kellewen, on the verge of losing his reason, instinctively moved the magic in his body and then flinched, coming to his senses.

The situation was different from before. The magic he used required more magical power the farther it was from nature, and unlike the garden, which was full of plants, the only natural object in Kellewen’s room now was the flowers in the vase.

Moreover, High Elves were not supposed to use magic unless their lives were in danger. Last time, he had been so flustered that he had used it inadvertently, but he could not repeat the same mistake.

That momentary hesitation gave Dandeleon an opportunity. Dandeleon pulled down Kellewen’s underwear, then brought his own member up against Kellewen’s, which was half-hard.

It was a different kind of pleasure from the one Dandeleon had given him before. Kellewen gritted his teeth to ignore the pleasure spreading through his lower body.

“F-for someone who says they’re enjoying themselves alone, my… my body part is….”

Kellewen’s words were cut off. Dandeleon began to stroke his own member with his hand. Naturally, the sensation was transmitted to Kellewen as well. Every time Dandeleon’s fingers moved up and down, the outside of his fingers brushed against and stimulated Kellewen’s member.

“Just use your willpower and endure that much.”

Dandeleon said with a giggle. He raised his hand all the way up and then gripped the tip of Kellewen’s member together with his own.

“Kuhk…!”

Kellewen bit his lip until it bled. He felt like he would scream if he did not. As if it were a handful to hold two with one hand, Dandeleon’s hand moved slowly.

Even that was too much for Kellewen. Every time the soft, slightly cool hand brushed against his own, a pleasure so intense it made his body shudder shot through him.

“Ah… ah! Aahk, aht, aaang!”

As Dandeleon’s movements gradually quickened, the moans flowing from his mouth also became higher and more suggestive.

Kellewen squeezed his eyes shut and tried not to see any of this situation, but the embarrassing sounds penetrated his ears even with his eyes closed. The same was true for his other senses.

The weight of Dandeleon on the inside of his leg, his body odor that captivated him like an aphrodisiac, and the sensation on his member.

Before he knew it, Kellewen was focusing all his attention on the sensations of his body. The thought that he had to stop Dandeleon, the thought that he had to run away, had all disappeared. The regularly delivered pleasure built up, and just as it was about to overwhelm him.

“Heuk… euuh? Heuung….”

Suddenly, Dandeleon’s voice changed slightly. Kellewen flinched and opened his eyes.

“Why is it like this… heuk, eut….”

Unexpectedly, Dandeleon had a pitiful expression on his face. He was so engrossed in moving his hand that he did not even know Kellewen was looking at him. His pleasure-soaked voice had also changed to something similar to a child’s whining at some point.

“Eu, heut… something, is missing….”

Dandeleon muttered so. Kellewen flinched and tensed his body.

That small movement broke the precarious balance. Dandeleon swayed as if he would fall backward. Kellewen hastily reached out his arms.

A small body fell into Kellewen’s embrace.

“Ah…!”

Kellewen was flustered. One of his hands was on Dandeleon’s shoulder, the other was on his waist. The feeling of his soft skin was transmitted directly through his hands.

A fierce impulse arose within Kellewen. He wanted to stroke Dandeleon’s skin instead of letting go. He wanted to slowly, gently caress him and check every inch of his body with his fingertips.

“Don’t let go.”

When Dandeleon whispered that, Kellewen thought it was an auditory hallucination he had created himself. But Dandeleon spoke again, in a clearer voice.

“Lower… touch me.”

Kellewen did not move. The pleasure that had seized his body, the impulse that surged within him, were all too unfamiliar to him. He did not know what to do. It was as if he had lost the ability to judge what was right.

But Dandeleon did not wait long. He tugged at Kellewen’s hand on his waist with a hint of annoyance. As Kellewen’s hand moved down, his fingers slid between Dandeleon’s buttocks. Kellewen, surprised, tried to pull his hand away, but ended up pressing hard on the tender flesh inside.

“Haaaahk!”

A scream burst from Dandeleon’s mouth. It was a completely different sound from before. Not the coquettish voice as if meant to be heard, nor the pitifully whining sound, but a voice completely soaked in pleasure, having lost all reason.

The moment he heard that voice, Kellewen’s mind went blank. Confusion and deliberation stopped at once, and all his senses focused on Dandeleon.

Dandeleon panted and pleaded.

“Can’t you put it in?”

Kellewen was trembling all over without realizing it. Dandeleon’s voice was excessively sweet. It was more fragrant, more intense, and more addicting than anything he had ever tasted here, impossible to escape.

“Just a finger would be fine.”

Dandeleon wrapped both arms around Kellewen’s neck.

“Please, High Elf….”

Kellewen’s hand was still frozen in that spot. But the internal struggle was fierce.

Kellewen thought. This was an act he should refuse. But a secret voice interrupted his thoughts. It was not an act that would make him lose his virginity. As the prince said, this was an act to make the prince himself feel good. But… to continue this….

“Kellewen.”

Dandeleon called his name. He held his face with his hands, forced him to look at his own face, and then pleaded with a desperate expression.

“Please.”

Kellewen’s reason snapped. Before he could even think, Kellewen’s finger moved. As if someone had taught him, the finger found the hole right away and penetrated it accurately.
