Chapter 4: The Secret That Was Kept from Them 


It had been agreed that after the initial night, Rem would be paid every ten days. Today marked the end of her second ten-day period. 
"Manager, are you sure this isn't too much?" 
The weight of the sack filled with coins she had received confused the elf. Calling it twice as heavy would have been exaggerating, but it was close. The only explanation she could come up for this sudden increase was a counting error. 
"No, there's no mistake. Compared to how it was before you came here, there are barely any fights happening in the store these days. Plates and tables don't get broken nearly as often either, which is a great help. Also, these past weeks have been your training period of sorts, so please think of this as your proper salary." 
"Well, in that case..." Rem said, as she gratefully accepted the money. Knowing what the future might have in store for her, there was no way she could not. 
As the elf stuffed the money pouch deep in her pocket, the door of the saloon flew open. A man walked in, wearing a black cloak and a large hat. He looked like a traveller, and based on his white, messy hair, was quite old. Both Rem and the manager were quite surprised, as no customers usually came at dawn. With his palms together as a mark of apology, the man approached the stranger. 
"I'm so sorry~. We were just about to close~." 
"I see..." the man grumbled in response and began turning away. However, seeing Rem in the corner of his eye caused him to turn back. 
"Wait, could it be... Are you that half-elf?" 
With a confused look on her face, Rem tilted her head and pointed at herself, as if asking "me?" Her guard, which had been steadily lowering for these past twelve days, was now fully back up. 


"Al, Al! Al!!" 
Rem returned to the inn, panting hard. She needed to tell the good news to Alferez as soon as possible. 
"Rem, what's wrong? You're back later than usual." 
The princess, sitting on the edge of the bed in her dress, turned her head towards the elf with an elegant gesture. On her lap was an elementary-level grimoire Rem had bought her the other day to kill time. Anyway, her comment had been spot-on; it was almost noon already. She usually came home way earlier. Not that any of that mattered right now, though. The information Rem had at last managed to obtain was so good that those questions could wait for later. 
"I found it! I found the witch who put the curse on you! Well, more precisely, a human traveller who said he knows someone who specializes in curses came to saloon, and..." 
While the adventurer dressed in black from head to toe did look suspicious, he had actually come here from a neighbouring town after hearing rumours of an half-elf girl looking for a witch. Rem couldn't help but to feel excited. 
However, that excitement was quickly stifled. Alferez hardly reacted. This was exactly the sort of information they had been looking for, and yet she didn't seem to be at all interested. 
"Al, are you even listening?" 
"H-Huh? Of course I am!" 
Clearly not a fan of Rem's accusation, the princess straightened her back. Even so, her passionate and persistent attitude from the beginning of their journey was nowhere to be seen. 
"Well, knowing you, I was expecting you to be... happier. More like 'Wow, Rem! Really!?'" 
"Is that really how you see me?" 
Alferez smiled wryly at Rem's attempt to imitate her. She didn't seem to be in a bad mood after all, although the elf still wished she would just praise her openly. 
Perhaps this had come so suddenly that the girl didn't know how to react. Not that it was a bad thing. Rather, seeing her this surprised made all of Rem's struggles worth it. 
Or maybe... 
Alferez's life in the inn was what her life had always been, confinement. She had once again been locked in an environment without stimulus, and it made sense to assume she would be lacking in emotions due to that. Bad thoughts suddenly filled Rem's mind. She was taken over by guilt as she collapsed on her knees. 
"Wh-What's wrong!?" 
Alferez was greatly shocked by Rem's sudden change in attitude. 
"Sorry, Al... If I had found that witch sooner, then..." 
"Why are you speaking like it's too late? If anything, you found her shockingly fast." 
The bright smile on her face was indeed as elegant as you would have expected from a princess, but she still wasn't acting like her usual self. Just then, perhaps having sensed this herself, the girl closed her eyes and let out a big sigh. She then got up and looked down at Rem, still crouching on the floor. 
"Now then, let us get going." 
"Going? Where?" 
"To ask for more details, of course. It'll save you the trouble of having to repeat everything to me if I just come with you. Now, Rem, guide me to that human!" 
Alferez stretched her arm with an over-exaggerated motion and pointed out through the door. The elf was happy to see her so motivated, but unfortunately, there was a problem. She placed her butt on the bed, lifted her finger, and corrected the girl's mistake. 
"Well, the saloon's closed already. He said he'd be back this evening." 
The princess was clearly not satisfied with this, however. She gave Rem a sharp look and stated: 
"...You did ask where we can find the witch, right?" 
"I mean, didn't you just say that you wanted to hear it straight from him? I thought it'd be rude to ask him the same thing twice, which is why I asked him to come back later." 
"Why!?" 
She was furious. But why? Wasn't this exactly what she had wanted? 
"Gosh, stop being so hasty. I just hadn't gotten to that part yet." 
Rem pouted her lips and countered the girl's nonsense rebuke. As she did, Alferez began drilling on her even harder. 
"I-I'm not hasty! Anyway, why do we have to wait!? Let's just go ask him right now! At what inn is that traveller staying?" 
"Huh? I didn't ask." 
"Dammit!!" 
For how disinterested the princess had seemed earlier, she sure was acting like a child, Rem thought. However, she had spoken too soon as Alferez wasn't nearly done yet. With her fists shaking in the air, the girl began shouting. Such a horrible temper. The elf now understood why she had turned into a cat. 
Well... I was the one who told her to be happier, I guess. 
Though Alferez's reaction hadn't been quite what Rem had expected, it still beat her not reacting at all. 


After a while, it came time for Rem to head to work. The traveller had promised to be there, which is why Alferez had come with her. The elf had asked her to put on a costume to make sure no one would realise that she was a princess. Her suggestion had been a knight, the girl had other ideas. 
"Well then, since I'm already carrying this bag, why don't I dress up as a traveller?" 
Though she had spent most the the day pouting, her attitude was cured in an instant as they were about to leave. It was a pretty terrible disguise, though, considering that the two of them were actually travellers. Still, Rem didn't want to go too hard on her. The girl hadn't been outside in a while, and since she looked so happy, the elf decided to let her do what she wanted. 
The two of them arrived at the saloon way earlier than Rem normally did. Thankfully, the manager knew that they were coming and had already opened the store. 
"Thank you so much for doing this for us..." 
"Don't worry about it. It's easier to get someone to talk when you buy them food and a drink, right?" 
Rem forced herself to laugh. The manager's offer to let her use the saloon had seemed generous, but as it turned out, he wasn't planning to do it for free. Rem would need to buy some drinks to compensate, it seemed. 
Just then, apparently having heard from somewhere that the saloon was opening early, the regular customers marched in. There were way more of them than usual, and before long, every last seat had been occupied. 
"...So, this is a bar?" Alferez said with a frown on her face. The place was noisy, smelled like alcohol, and there were drunkards wherever you looked. This was a completely different world compared to the elf village or the castle in which the two girls had spent most of their lives secluded. Even Rem had needed some time to adjust; it was way too much for the princess. 
"Wait here." 
Rem guided Alferez to a table by the corner since the traveller still hadn't showed up. However, just as she was about to leave and start working, the girl grabbed her sleeve with her eyes pleading "don't go". 
"D-D-Do you pl-plan to leave me h-here all b-by m-myself!?" she said, stuttering a comical amount. Rem couldn't blame her. It made sense that she'd feel anxious being left alone with all these guys looking like they were up to no good. 
"Right... I'll ask the manager if you can stay in the kitchen... Ah, he's here! Look, Al! There he is!" 
The door opened, and a traveller wearing a black cloak walked in. Rem waved her hand at him, and the man skilfully made his way to her through the chaos that was the saloon. He then took off his cap, placed it on his chest, and greeted the girls. 
"How have you fared, young half-elf? Might this be the lady you said wanted to hear what I had to say?" 
Once he was done, the man took a seat across from Alferez. The princess quickly regained her composure, and with a voice considerably lower than her usual one, began questioning the stranger. 
"Which royal palace do you serve?" 
It was there that Rem noticed it too. The man's mannerisms were far too high-class for a mere traveller. 
"Right. I used to be a knight back in the day, though I cannot tell you where. I am long retired, however, and have taken on the life of a traveller. The country I come from is very advanced in terms of magical research, which is why I had a hunch who that witch the young half-elf seeks might be." 
As he finished speaking, the man lifted his finger to order a beer. 
"A man can't just come to a bar and not order anything, can he? Won't you treat me for a pint? Think of it as a price for the information." 
Alferez nodded and sent Rem to the kitchen to deliver the order. As she arrived, the elf was met by the manager with a frown on his face and his arms folded. He was mumbling to himself, as if trying to remember something. 
"Is something wrong, Manager?" 
"No, it's fine. I was just thinking if I had seen that guy before..." he said and gazed at the knight in the black cloak. 
"Well, we do get a lot of customers. Maybe you saw someone who looked like him?" 
"No, I don't think I saw him here... Damn, I wish I could remember." 
"Anyway, can you please take the orders while I talk to him? It's really important. I'll be right back afterwards." 
"Sure... Wait, who'll take care of the kitchen?!" 
Rem apologized furiously, saying that it wouldn't take long, and rushed back to the table where Alferez was waiting for her. She placed a large jug of beer she had brought with her in front of the man, which he proceeded to chug down in a single go. The girls both stared in amazement as the liquid quickly disappeared down the knight's throat. He glanced back at them and began talking calmly. 
"The witch you seek is most likely an old hag by the name Galina, who lives at Mount Kedros. She specialises in curses, and from what I've heard, there's no job too dirty for her." 
Rem gasped audibly. This witch matched the description perfectly. She turned her head towards Alferez, but much to her surprise, the girl didn't seem too happy. Rather, she seemed angry. And at the same time, slightly lonely. 
"Galina from Mount Kedros, huh? Thank you very much. I really didn't expect that I'd be able to get her name and all." 
The princess bowed deeply, and Rem quickly followed suit. The man raised his hand slightly, as if to say that there was no need, and laughed. 
"No, no. It's nothing. Rather, this is my apology for you. I thought I needed to give you at least some hope." 
"Apology? Hope?" 
What had the man meant by this? Rem looked confused, and so did Alferez. 
"The truth is, I have been given another mission regarding the young lady. The half-elf, I was told, I could have for myself as a part of my reward." 
The knight pulled out his sword faster than either of the girls could parse his words. They had caught Rem's attention, and right as she realised what was going on, the sharp blade was already heading towards her head. She wouldn't have time to dodge. 
"...!" 
However, a split-second later, she was still alive. A flying metal tray had passed right over the elf's head and hit the man's wrist, stopping his attack. With the sword barely in his grasp, he turned his head towards where the object had flown from. As he did, he saw the manager preparing to throw the next tray. 
"Rem, that man's an assassin! He was dressed up as a knight, so it took me a moment to remember!" 
"Tsk!" the man clicked his tongue in response. He likely hadn't expected for there to be someone here who knew him. He then turned back towards Rem and prepared his sword for another strike. 
"Exactly. I was hired by Her Majesty to find you brats. Oh, but don't worry. The thing about the witch was the truth. However, the only place the princess will be going is back to the castle with me. As for the half-elf... Yeah, you'll make for a good playthi— Gueh!" 
The man, having been licking Rem's body with his eyes, dropped his sword to the ground and held his head. 
"Who the fuck... just hit me...?" 
He turned to look behind him, and as he did, the fire in his eyes died out. The reason was simply; a dwarf, holding the club that had hit him earlier, and a dozen other customers had him surrounded. 
"Did you just say you were gonna make our Rem your 'plaything'?" 
"You really thought we're gonna let you get away with that, huh!?" 
Rem was as shocked as he was. These people were all protecting her. Before she could ask why, the manager tapped her shoulder. 
"Did you think you could just lay your hands on one of my employees? If not, you sure have some nerve starting a fight in a bar filled with tough guys... Pretending to be a knight got you all cocky, huh? Now then, go get him, boys!" 
The customers gathered around him attacked the man at the manager's signal. He tried pulling out a dagger, but as he was greatly outnumbered, the weapon was quickly taken away from him. It didn't take long before the fake knight was crying for mercy. 
Just then, the door was kicked open, and a group of soldiers barged in. Seeing how they immediately rushed to help the man, it could be assumed that they had already been waiting outside. It seemed that their original plan, whatever it was, had failed, and it was now time to use force instead. However, there hadn't been enough reinforcements to completely overturn the tide of battle in their favour. Had they been wearing armour for example, the situation might have been different, but they weren't. As such, though they had come here to help the man, the soldiers ended up being the ones in need of help themselves. Food and drinks flew everywhere, and the sound of chairs and bottles shattering filled the air. 
"What should we do, Rem...?" 
"D-Don't ask me!" 
Alferez was frightened. Though fights were a regular occurrence here, it was the first time Rem had seen it get this bad. The two girls stood there frozen, until someone yanked them to the kitchen. 
"What are you two standing there for!? Hurry up and run!" 
"But, Manager, it's our fault that any of this happened..." 
"No, you're wrong! This is not your fault, Rem, but mine alone! Besides, fighting the castle guards is bound to get you in trouble later on!" 
"Argh! This is no time to be worrying about that, you two!" 
Though neither Alferez nor Rem wanted to leave the mess they felt they had themselves created behind, they didn't have much choice as the manager shoved them out through the back door. 
"Worry about your own safety before ours. Having an assassin after you is a pretty serious situation." 
With a look far more serious than anything he had shown before, the manager slammed the door shut. The two girls were frozen in place, still able to hear the roars and sounds of stuff breaking coming from inside. 
"Like you said, we have our objectives. However, there is no way that we can let everyone get involved and then run awa— Hyaah!?" 
The manager wasn't interested in hearing Alferez's protest. He lifted up the girl as if she was made from feathers and placed her on the back of a horse carriage stationed just outside the saloon. All those years of loading and unloading stock had made him a master at this, and before Rem could open her mouth, she too had been loaded in. 
"Manager!" 
The elf tried to hop out, but the man pushed her back in. He then closed one of his eyes, smiled slightly, and stated: 
"Listen up, okay. Quarrels with soldiers aren't really all that rare of an occurrence around here. Besides, one look at you is enough to tell me that you haven't done anything wrong. Barkeepers are pretty good when it comes to gauging people, you know?" 
"But... We've caused you so much trouble..." Rem apologized, and so did Alferez. The manager simply patted the elf's head and handed her a sack full of coins. 
"This is a prepayment for your salary. You can come back to work once the heat is off. Make sure you do and pay for the wagon ride, okay?" 
"Manager..." 
Could she really just run away and leave them all behind? Rem was confused, and though her hands were gripping the reins, she was unable to move them. She turned back and looked at Alferez. The expression on the princess's face was just as grim as the one on her own. However, unlike the elf, she had made up her mind. She placed her hands on Rem's shoulders and stated: 
"Let us go, Rem. We cannot let the man's goodwill go to waste." 
Despite her words, there was no doubt that Alferez was the one most worried here. She had likely only said what she had to take the responsibility off of Rem. Knowing this, the elf bit her lip and shook off any hesitation. 
"I'll see you again." 
The manager waved at them while smiling, and the two girls bowed back at him. Rem then shook the reins, sending the horse running towards the sunset. 


From the looks of it, the manager and the rest had really given it their all. Though the girls had ended up sleeping outdoors, their pursuers hadn't caught up to them. The royal family also didn't want the scandal that was the princess running away from home going public, which meant that there shouldn't be too heavy of a punishment for those involved in the quarrel, Alferez had told Rem. At the moment, she had no choice but to believe her. 
"In other news, this place sure is nice." 
They had decided to stay the night at the foot of a mountain a great distance away from the main road. The large, grassy boulders scattered all around formed a maze of sorts and made for excellent cover. For now, this would be a good place to hide from pursuers. 
"We really need to go back and apologize once this is all over," Rem said to Alferez—now a cat—in front of a bonfire they had built. She let out a short meow, seemingly in agreement. A hint of sadness could be heard in her voice. Rem knew for sure that it wasn't just her imagination. Though the girl might appear moody at times, she was more aware of her position as a princess than anyone else. There was no doubt that getting those people involved in her own struggle as well pained her deeply. 
It's not fair that she has to go through this... 
What was wrong about wanting to break a strange curse affecting you? Nothing. Others might claim that she was selfish, but not Rem. She would never leave the girl's side. With those thoughts in mind, she gently patted the ball of white fur that was the cat's head. 
"Why don't we go for a quick walk?" the elf suggested after taking out some vegetables from the wagon and giving them to the horse to eat. Though Alferez acted disinterested at first, once they actually started walking, it became obvious that she had been in the mood for one. The two weaved through the grass and trees and hopped playfully from boulder to boulder. After a while, they reached a considerably larger boulder, on which Rem sat down. The cat quickly followed suit and rolled into a ball on her lap. 
As the elf stared at the silent, starry sky, she could hardly believe that the two of them had been running for their lives not all that long ago. The soft weight of the cat on her thighs felt good. Perhaps she had finally gotten used to seeing the girl like this. Rem patted her gently, and as she did, a strange sense of serenity filled her mind. 
"I think this is how it felt when my mother used to hug me... I wonder why. Al doesn't resemble her at all..." 
A smile formed on Rem's face, and a painful throb appeared in her chest. For some reason, remembering her mother made her feel more happy than sad. 
"Al... I want to stay with you, forever..." 
Those words escaped Rem's mouth. Though she couldn't reply right now, the girl would, without a doubt, tease her for it next morning. And yet, the atmosphere of the night had made the elf's lips loose.  



"Hey... Even if you stayed as a cat for the rest of your life, I..." 
The sentence was cut short as Rem realised what she had been about to say and covered her mouth with her hands. The cat tilted its neck slightly, before reaching towards the elf and giving her hand a lick. She couldn't talk, and as such, Rem didn't really have a way to tell what sort of an emotion it was supposed to represent. She didn't seem to be angry, however, and the elf sighed in relief, all the while regretting speaking so carelessly. 
"Sorry. I won't say something that weird again. Anyway, let's do our best. I don't want the manager's help to go to waste." 
Gazing upon the stars above, she restated her determination. And yet, no reply was heard from Alferez, not a single meow. As Rem looked down, she saw that the cat had already fallen asleep. Without a doubt, she was exhausted. The elf picked her up slowly, making sure not to wake her up, and returned to the bonfire. She then grabbed some blankets from the wagon, spread them on the soft grass, and with Alferez's warm body providing her with heat, fell asleep as well. 


Something strange happened the following morning. 
"Meaaawn~." 
Alferez's cat-like yawn woke Rem up. As she forced her tired eyes open, she saw that the bonfire had died out. She was in the same state as when she had fallen asleep; lying on a blanket, embracing Alferez. However, something was off. The girl in her arms... felt different. As the elf touched her hair and back, the sleepiness she had felt instantly vanished. 
"Al, what's going on!?" 
Rem panicked and jumped up. As she did, the girl let out another long yawn and slowly got up as well. Now seeing her body in full, the elf's jaw dropped. 
"...Hm?" 
Alferez touched herself, and at last, realised why Rem was so shocked; she had an extra pair of ears, pointing straight up, and fluffy tail, swinging from side to side. 
"What's happening? Is this what it's like when you're in the middle of turning into a human?" 
Though she was mostly back to being a human, some parts of her still remained as a cat. But why? The sun was already quite high. Normally, she would have been finished transforming long since. Why had it stopped half-way this time? 
All of a sudden, the words of the Queen appeared in Rem's mind. Words that blamed her for the princess's curse. 
(It's my fault? It's because of what I said last night, that I wouldn't mind her staying as a cat?) 
Had her statement really caused this? Considering how little she actually knew about the curse, she couldn't say one way or another. What she did know, however, was that this wasn't good. 
The princess's reaction couldn't have been more different. A bright smile appeared on her face as she checked out her ears and tail. 
"Wow, this is pretty wild!" she stated cheerfully. Rem, shocked by the girl's seeming lack of care, lashed out to her. 
"What do you mean? This is your own body! Aren't you, like, scared or something!?" 
"Well, a little, but... Funny. For some reason, it just doesn't feel like that big of a deal. The cat-part of my mind hasn't gone away yet, I think." 
As she said that, Alferez tried tilting her head. However, her eyes moved as if she had noticed something interesting, and her mouth twisted into a slight smile. 
"Rem, you try touching it too. It's really soft and fluffy," Alferez said and held out her tail. The elf had no problem petting her when she was fully a cat, but with her like this, she wasn't quite sure if it was okay to touch her. The fact that the shape-shifter herself was acting so calm felt strange to her. Well, this did happen to her every night, Rem supposed. She had also gone through all those crazy experiments with the potion. Perhaps the girl was just so used to this kind of weird stuff happening that it didn't affect her? 
Alferez hurried Rem with her eyes, like a child who was having way too much fun. Rem had been won over and, with hands shaking nervously, she reached towards the tail wiggling before her. Tail she had touched countless of times before, but now felt so unfamiliar. 
"Meow! Haaa... That sent shivers down my back! Be more careful, Rem! I'm really sensitive there!" 
"Y-You are...? Sorry..." 
Don't ask me to touch you and then start complaining, the elf thought. She started to pull her hand away, but before she could, the girl grabbed her wrist and stopped her. 
"I told you to be gentleee! I never said that you could stooop!" 
It was hard to tell how exactly she wanted it to be done. Still, considering how much the princess was asking for it, Rem thought she should at least give it another shot. She grabbed Alferez's tail and began petting it slowly against the grain, which, based on her expression and the way her back kept twisting from side to side, she seemed to enjoy quite a bit. 
"Meow... Rem... That feels... kinda... gooood..." 
"St-Stop making those weird noises..." 
It wasn't just noises. The princess had snuggled up to her, like a baby kitten seeking attention. No longer able to stop herself, Rem's fingers tickled the base of Alferez's tail. Her body twitched, seemingly from pleasure, and the cheeks of the two girls met. As her sweet smell tickled the elf's nose, she too could feel herself getting in a strange mood. 
"Haa... Rem..." she whispered on her lips. She pushed her soft, bare breasts against the elf's arms, as if begging for something. Rem felt a throb between her legs. It was obvious what the girl wanted. Painfully obvious. 
"No, Al... We can't... Not right in the morning... Not outside..." 
"But, but... I can't hold back... I think I might be... in heat..." 
"H-Heat!?" 
Rem blushed in shock. That wasn't the kind of word she had expected to hear coming from the mouth of a princess. Still, now that she looked at her, her teary eyes, her half-open mouth, she clearly was horny. The elf gulped. 
"Al, wait... Let me get these ready first... Ahhn!" 
She turned to fix the scattered blankets, but as she did, the girl wrapped her arms around her from behind and pushed her on the ground. 
"Rem... Rem...!" 
"Wait... Al... Not yet... Ahn!" 
Their moans of lust mixed together as Alferez's tongue licked the elf's neck. The blankets she had tried to straighten out were now being gripped tight by her slender fingers. The princess's heavy breasts pushed against her back, and even through her clothes, she could feel that her nipples were hard. They drew circles against Rem's back, and with the throb in her crotch growing ever stronger, her legs slowly spread open, as if begging for the girl's fingers to assault what was hidden between. Wouldn't you know it, that's exactly what they did. 
"Ehehe... Rem!" 
"Ahn! Haa! Haaaa!" 
Rem's back shivered and arched as Alferez softly rubbed the middle of her panties, while at the same time licking her neck and ears from behind. Moan after moan escaped the mouth of the elf crawling on the ground. 
Aaaah... It's like... I was the cat here... 
The painful throb within her grew stronger with every touch. Her slit had begun gushing out thick nectar. She had completely lost control of her hips, now moving back and forth in a horribly obscene way. Her body reacting this strongly to a mere touch made Rem feel so ashamed. 
"Take this!" 
Annoyed by constantly being on the receiving end, the elf flipped around and pushed Alferez on the ground in turn. She moved on top of her, grabbed her breasts, and pressed her lips against hers. 
"Aah... Rem... Mhh... Mmmh..." 
"Huh!?" 
Rem had been the one to launch this attack, and yet, the instant their tongues met, a wave of pure pleasure shot up her back. Though usually soft, Alferez's tongue was now coarse. 
Come to think of it, the tongues of cats do kinda feel like sandpaper... Could it be... Ahhn! 
It seemed that, just like her ears and tail, this part of her had not fully transformed either. The texture was just rough enough without being painful, and in fact, felt quite good. Completely entranced, she continued running her tongue along it. 
"Haa... Ahn... Rem, this is... incredible... Meooow!" 
Alferez tilted her head as well and pushed her tongue deeper inside the elf's mouth. Saliva dripped out from between their lips, making the kiss even sloppier than it had already been. Shaking from pleasure, Rem's fingers played with the princess's nipples. As they did, the girl suddenly pulled her closer and sucked her tongue deeper. 
"Ahh!?" 
The sudden movement caused the elf to moan, and without even knowing that she was doing it, she stroked Alferez's cat ear. Though she had been scared of touching them a moment ago, those feelings were now long gone. She tickled them with passion, causing the princess to moan wildly. Seeing her react this way filled Rem's heart with joy. 
"Meow! No... Not there..." 
"Aha! Your ears are super sensitive, Al... Let me tickle the insides too." 
"Haa! Ha! Haahn! Meoooow!" 
Alferez's sweet moans got Rem in the mood for a little mischief. Unable to stop herself, she took a playful nip at the girl's ear. 
"Huah!?" 
The surprise attack caused Alferez to moan even harder. Rem was surprised too; she hadn't expected to be able to fit the whole thing in her mouth. She licked the ear all over, as if brushing the fur covering it. As she did, the girl's shaking arms wrapped tight around her. 
Right. Even if she looks a bit different, Al's still Al. 
Still licking her ear, Rem lightly gripped Alferez's tail for a second time. Her shoulders sprang up, and her eyes filled with excitement. She was clearly looking forward to the elf stroking her some more. Unfortunately, that wasn't what she would be getting. 
"Meooow!?" 
The princess let out a scream. As for why, that was simple; Rem was using the tip of the girl's tail as a brush to tickle her slit. Unlike ear licking, this was something she could have never even conceived happening, and her wild moans were a testament to that. She panicked and tried to close her legs, but the elf's knees blocked that attempt and secured her thighs wide open. The girl had no choice but to endure the torture. 
"Tell me, Princess. How is it like to be tormented by your own tail?" 
"No, stop! It feels too good! I'll... I'll lose my mind!" 
"That's fine, go ahead. Lose... your... mind!" 
"Haa... Meooow!!" 
Alferez's tail was getting wet from her juices. Her slit had been spread open, and her thick honey gushed out from it, trickling down her thighs. Rem noticed this, and purred as she brought her mouth closer to the lewd spring. 
"Haa..." 
She pulled the girl's tail away from her slit, and as she did, thick strands of honey came with it. Rem licked up what she could from the tail's tip, before moving on to sucking it out directly from the source. 
"Aaah!" 
Alferez's butt jumped. She tried to escape Rem's tongue, but once again the elf stopped her on her tracks. She slurped up her juices and, intoxicated by their sweet taste and smell, assaulted the girl's lovebud. 
"Hnnh! Rem, not there... Not yet... Hnnhh!" 
Rem had no plans to listen to her requests. After all, she wanted to drink this nectar. She flicked the girl's bean, causing her honey to gush out, which the elf then drank up before flicking her bean again. That cycle was too much for the princess to handle. 
"Wait, Rem! It's too strong... Aah!" 
"Ahn! Al, wait!" 
At last, Alferez turned over and began crawling away on all fours. Rem, having not yet had enough, quickly caught her. As her tail sprang up in shock, the cute crevice hidden behind it became exposed. With no hesitation whatsoever, the elf plunged her tongue, wet from all the nectar, into the small hole. 
"Hii!? Rem, where are you... touching me...? Hyaah!?" 
The princess's back arched as Rem's tongue entered her, and every single muscle in her body tensed up. The elf, only encouraged by this, traced the edges of the girl's hole. As she did, Alferez's moans changed into much weaker ones, and soon after, her upper-half collapsed on the ground. Though even Rem herself hadn't thought that she'd be touching Alferez's butt, her excessive reactions were quite enjoyable, and before she knew it, she was going quite hard on the girl. She grabbed her butt, now pointing upwards, spread her cheeks open, and licked the parts around the hole until they were dripping wet with saliva. 
"Meow! Rem, you dumbass! Stupid, stupid! Haa! Aaaahh...!" 
She smacked the elf's head with her tail, but rather than hurting her, it only made her happy. Rem continued licking the princess's butt, while at the same time playing with her slit using her right middle finger. She didn't do much more than tracing it, but even this was enough to cause the girl's honey to flow out, creating a puddle on the elf's palm. 
"Aah! Haaa! What is... happening...? Why does my butt... feels so... Haaa..." 
Alferez was resisting less every passing second, and soon she began accepting the pleasure radiating from her butt. Rem, no longer able to hold back either, reached towards her own crotch. 
Ahh... I'm... this wet too... 
The elf was surprised by the size of the flood within her panties. There was so much juice that it tricked her brain into thinking that she had stuck her fingers in a glass of water. As she stirred it up, a wave of pleasure shot through her body, causing her drool to flow out, which she then smeared all over Alferez. 
"Haahn! So wet... So good...!" 
The girl's tail rolled up, fully exposing her privates. She shook her hips seductively, begging for true pleasure this time. Rem's tongue immediately replied, and so did her fingertips as they rubbed her lovebud and slit with great speed. 
"Th-This feels... different from usual... But... still good... It's like my body... was floating...!" 
"Cum, Al! Cum from your butt!" 
Alferez's body stretched, like a cat that was yawning. Staring at her eyes half-open, Rem plunged her tongue deep inside the girl, all the while touching her own crotch as well. 
"Hii! What the!? My butt... feels so weird... and so good... Noo! Cumming! I'm cumming! Meow! Meow!!" 

 


The upper half of the girl's body arched, as if she was pushing her chest outwards. She stayed like that for a moment, her naked body shivering, before finally collapsing on the blanket, completely exhausted. 
"Meooow... With my butt..." 
Still shaking, Alferez rolled into a ball and looked up to Rem with bitter eyes. 
"Did doing it with your butt feel that good?" 
"Dumbass! Don't ask me that!!" 
Furious that the elf would even ask such a mean-spirited question, the girl leaned over to her. Then, as if taking revenge, she took a light bite out of her ear. 
"Hyaah! A-Al... Didn't you just cum...?" 
"This is what you get for saying something that weird! As punishment, I'll make your ear feel good! Get ready!" 
"H-Hey, take it easy... Hyaah!? Ah... Ahhn... Ahn!" 
Despite how sensitive she must have been from the orgasm she just had, Alferez rubbed herself against Rem's breasts and thighs and licked her ear all over. A little bewildered and overpowered, the elf embraced her and allowed the pleasure to fully take over her body. 


The girls had stopped by at a town en route and obtained a map leading to the Mount Kedros, where the witch lived. They avoided large roads as much as the wagon would allow and instead travelled through forests. Far from being a shortcut, they could barely make the horse walk there. Though the two were getting closer to their goal bit by bit, this was far from the laid-back journey that it had been meant to be. 
"I need to break Al's curse as soon as possible..." 
Rem's motive had changed. While the cat ears and tail did pose a massive problem, the way Alferez was right now, she couldn't really expose herself in public all that much anyway. The elf rushed the horse along as she travelled in quiet, trying her best not to shake the wagon and the girl laying on the back. 
"Ah... Yes... Meooow... Rem... Touch me, Rem... Ahn... Haahn... Meooow..." 
The princess moaned, fully nude. Around three days had passed since she had transformed into this state. Though she did still turn into a cat during the nights like she always did, when the morning came, she wouldn't turn fully back into a human. Furthermore, she was in heat, and no matter how many orgasms she had, it was never enough to satisfy her. Even now she was touching herself, begging for Rem to take her. 
"Meow... I want to feel good... Rem... Rem...! Meooow!" 
Alferez's moans sounding like those of a cat was probably just something the rush Rem felt had made her to imagine. What was definitely real, though, was the fact that the girl's frustratingly sharp wit was gone; she had been reduced to the level of a toddler, even down to the way she spoke. 
"What is happening to her?" 
Could her heat ever be fully cured? Would she ever even return to being fully human? There being no one she could ask these questions greatly added to Rem's anxiety. 
She should have noticed sooner. Having cat ears meant that the curse was progressing. However, the elf had been too scared to face the truth. All the signs had been there, yet she had chosen to assure herself that things would work out in the end. 
It's your fault. 
The Queen's words still haunted Rem. She hadn't even known that a princess by the name Alferez existed before meeting her in the manor. How could she possibly be related to this? And yet, why wasn't she able to deny it with complete confidence? 
"Do I... want to take the blame for it?" 
Even if Rem had nothing to do with the curse, she still might be responsible for the girl's current state. Alferez had always felt guilty making her curse other people's problem. It was there that the elf had let out those fateful words, "I don't mind if you stay as a cat"... 
"Hey, Rem... Let's do it..." 
"Whoa, Al! Stop it, that's dangerous!" 
Without any warning, the fully nude cat-princess wrapped her arms around Rem from behind. In panic the elf pulled herself away, and the wagon, having been suddenly stopped, came close to toppling over. 
"Reeem! I can't take iiit!" 
"W-We just did it this morning..." 
The gaps between her attacks of heat were growing shorter; it was only a little past noon and she was already having another one. Though Rem wanted to spend every moment of sunlight travelling forward, she would have great trouble operating the wagon if Alferez continued clinging onto her like this. With no other choice, she decided to answer the girl's plea. 
That was a lie, of course. 
Hearing her endless moans as she pleasured herself had pushed Rem to her limit as well. Lust surpassed guilt. She tied the horse to a suitable tree, quickly undressed, and embraced the naked princess moaning at the back of the wagon. 
"Aah!" 
With her arms opened wide and a smile of satisfaction on her face, Alferez accepted her. The two kissed, and Rem pushed the girl down on the floor. 
"Ahhn! Rem..." 
Alferez's sweet voice tickled her ear, causing Rem to feel great pleasure, as if every muscle in her body was shivering. She quickly interrupted those moans, echoing through the forest, with another kiss, and placed her hand between the girl's legs. As she did, she shuddered violently, and with her face twisted into something that resembled a smile, spread her legs wide. 


A few days later, the wagon reached somewhere very desolate. Had this too been a lush forest back in the day? The ground was rocky and barren, an ominous fog hung in the air, and countless numbers of dead trees spread in every direction. As the girls travelled through the fog, a mountain covered in decayed trees slowly appeared before them. 
"Is this Mount Kedros...?" 
Rem hopped off the driver seat and took a look up the mountain. Though the peak wasn't too high up—even by foot you could likely reach it in less than half a day—the way up there seemed far too rocky and rough for the wagon to travel. As the elf surveyed the mountain in more detail, she noticed something; halfway up it, behind a large cliff, there was something that looked like a roof. No doubt, that must have been the witch's mansion. 
"There's probably no one else who'd live in a place this devoid of life." 
If Rem was alone, she could easily climb up the mountain. The problem was, how would she carry the cat-princess, suffering from eternal heat, with her? You see, ever since the inn town, the elf hadn't felt the power of spirits. Soaring through the air with Alferez in her arms as she had done in the past would be difficult, if not outright impossible. She turned around and took a look at the girl, sleeping at the back of the wagon, and pondered. 
"Should I wait till night...?" 
It would likely be far easier to carry her as a cat, although traversing a mountain at night did also bring about its own dangers. Furthermore, the witch might be using magical beasts as gatekeepers, which a half-elf carrying a cat probably wouldn't stand a chance against. They had done well making it this far as quickly as they had, but as for plans regarding how to face the witch, Rem had none. 
"It probably won't be as simple as asking her 'please break the curse', huh...?" 
Though her destination was right in front of her, she didn't know what to do next; the elf had prepared herself for this journey taking years, and had never actually stopped to think about what she'd do once she got here. 
"Now, what to do... Hmm?" 
She sensed something moving at the back of the wagon. Had Alferez woken up? The girl had been wearing her dress while asleep, but that thing was likely coming off immediately. Travelling while she was a cat really did seem like the safer option. 
Just then, an unnatural gust of wind blew by. There was someone who used spirits here, in this barren wasteland. Rem tensed up in an instant, turned around, and pulled out her sword to block a silent swing of a rapier headed towards her head. 
"I have to say, I wasn't expecting you to come here", the attacker spoke in an annoyed tone as she pushed her weapon downwards. 
"That's what I wanted to say, Aunt Amita", Rem replied while jumping back. 
Amita's clothes were tattered all over, from which one could assume that she had been searching for the two this whole time. There were signs of fatigue on her face as well, and the way she spoke had no bite to it. 
"You're pretty persistent, Aunt. Do you really hate the idea of me befriending a human that much?" 
"That's not the problem!" 
The woman's sudden yell caused Rem to flinch. Even so, she hadn't travelled all the way here just to be stopped by her. Furthermore, something about her statement had caught the girl's attention. 
"Aunt... Could it be that you know what sort of place this is?" 
"...Meeting the witch isn't going to do you two any good. Give it up." 
She definitely knew. Not only that, she was still hiding something. Rem had no time to figure out what that something was, however. 
"Get out of my way, Aunt. If you want to talk, we can do it after I've—" 
"Your goal is to break the Princess's curse, correct? That is impossible." 
The elf, having been about to force her way through Amita, now stood frozen still. Amita knew about Alferez. And that wasn't even all. She continued speaking, further stopping Rem from moving. 
"Rem. The reason why you were locked within the village was to prevent you from meeting the Princess." 
"Wh-What do you mean...?" 
She tried to run, but her body wouldn't listen. Why was Amita saying the same thing as the Queen had said? It was that question that that completely stopped her in her tracks. 
I knew it... There's some sort of a connection between Al and I... 
Looking at her confused niece, Amita sighed deeply, before gently extending her arm. 
"Let's go home. I'll explain everything once we get back to the village." 
Rem's desire to know the truth caused her to forget what was really important. She did as she had been told and reached for her aunt's hand. 
...Wait! If I go home now, what's going to happen to Al!? 
The elf scolded herself, after which she lifted up her sword and pointed it towards Amita. 
"Sorry, Aunt. I can't go back to the village. I promised to Al that I'd break her curse. She's in pain. I can't just leave her alone!" 
"That's not your problem! Tell me, Rem, why do you care about that girl so much!?" 
Having her niece not listen to her had finally caused Amita to lose her temper. She was more furious than Rem had ever seen her. Some of that anger transferred to the girl, and she shouted back. 
"Isn't it obvious!? I love her!" 
At first, even Rem herself didn't know what she meant by that. She had just said it on impulse. Well, she certainly did like Alferez. She saw her as a friend, and sometimes even as her little sister. The elf knew her pain and sympathised with it. 
But... Is that really all there is to it? 
In her heart she knew that it wasn't. The answer was right there in front of her; she just tried to pretend like she didn't see it. 
No. I... I should already know... 
Rem decided to try facing her own words with honesty. As she did, her heart suddenly became light, as if all the fog covering it had vanished. In an instant, love towards the girl filled her chest. She smiled gently and once again stated her feelings; not on impulse this time, but really meaning what she said. 
"Sorry, Aunt. I... I love Al... I really, truly do... From the bottom of my heart..." 
"Do you even understand what you're saying...?" 
All colour had vanished from Amita's face. That was understandable. They were both girls, and furthermore, falling in love with a human had been the exact "mistake" she had witnessed her sister commit. She couldn't be expected to accept it so easily. 
Or that's what Rem thought at least. However, as she soon learned, the woman had meant something completely different. 
"I can't live without Al! I want to marry her and stay with her for the rest of my life!" 
"Stop speaking! That girl is your twin sister!!" 
As soon as she had blurted out those words, Amita slapped her hands on her mouth. It seemed that she had exposed a secret she hadn't meant to. 
Rem stopped as well. In silence, she shook her head, rejecting what she had just heard. 
She couldn't believe it. There was no way that she could believe something like that. 
However, despite that sentiment, she accepted the information surprisingly easily. Perhaps due to the conversation she had with the Queen, deep in her heart the elf knew it to be true. The intense look in Amita's eyes was also extremely persuasive. 
"Al and I... are sisters?" 
If that was true, it would mean that she'd had sex with her twin on multiple occasions. Strength left Rem's body, and the hand that was holding her sword drooped. Amita shook her head, as if regretting ever telling her. 
"You spent all that time together, but you never had a chance to notice, huh? Well, whatever. If you didn't know already, just forget what I said. And if you refuse to do that... I'll have to take you back using force." 
The woman readied her sword, and Rem did the same. Her bow was inside the wagon. Had Alferez been her normal self she could've asked her for help, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. On the off chance that the girl's feelings of lust had eased momentarily, the elf glanced to where she was sleeping. That was an opening that Amita wouldn't let pass. She kicked the floor and flew forwards. Not towards Rem, however, but the wagon. 
"You'll no longer be sad once that girl disappears!" 
Rem had been taken off-guard, and her reaction came late. Not only was Amita agile, she had spirits on her side. The girl could never hope to match her speed. That single delayed step became fatal, and she was thrown into despair. 
"Noooo!!" 
Just as Amita's sword was about to slice through the side of the wagon, the world before Rem became blurry. But, not with tears. Everything turned into a giant whirlpool, and as if being sucked into it, the elf's body became completely numb. 
"Wh-What...?" 
Her eyes spun, and all colour mixed together. She also felt like she was going to throw up. One more rotation and Rem might have been done for. Thankfully, right before that happened, her vision returned to normal. 
She was unable to stand, however, and collapsed on her knees. Something felt wrong. Trying to endure the nausea, the elf opened her eyes, and as she did, what she saw blew her mind. What was below her wasn't the cliff she had been on just a second ago, but a bright and polished stone floor. In panic, Rem took a look around, only to find herself inside a building. A dimly-lit, bleak stone mansion. The room she was in currently was a wide entrance hall with a tall ceiling. 
"When did I get here...? And how...?" 
"Rem...?" 
Still confused about what exactly had happened, Rem heard the voice of someone still half-asleep calling out to her. That voice belonged to Alferez, now lying on the floor. The wagon was nowhere to be seen. Neither was Amita. From the looks of it, only the two of them had been transported here. Rem rushed to the girl and lifted her up in her arms. Though her heat seemed to have eased off slightly, being transported to an unknown location had made her quite frightened. With shaking hands, she grabbed the elf's arms and wouldn't let go. 
"It's fine. I'm here with you..." 
Rem was just as anxious as she was. Nevertheless, she forced herself to act brave and grabbed the girl's shoulders. As she did, Alferez pushed her body against hers, and soon after stopped shaking. It seemed that she had managed to calm down. With that out of the way, it was now time to figure out where the heck they were. 
"I-Is there anyone here!?" 
"You shouldn't make noise in the house of another." 
No sooner had Rem asked the question than it had been answered. At the top of the large stairs of the central hall stood a small figure, belonging to an old lady bent with age in tattered robe. With a curved cane in hand, she walked down. 
"This is quite the unusual combination. A half-elf and a human." 
White, dried hair peeked out from under the woman's hood. Based on her getup, it made sense to assume that she was a witch. Though the sudden appearance of someone so mysterious did put Rem on her guard, she quickly realised who it really was. 
"Could it be... Are you Galina of Mount Kedros!? Listen, we two are-" 
The old lady frowned, perhaps irritated by how hasty the elf was being. 
"Yes, I am aware. I heard you, which is why I brought you here. Good grief, making such a ruckus in my garden..." 
This really seemed to be the witch they had been looking for. However, that wasn't even the most confusing thing to Rem. As far as she knew, the mansion was halfway up the mountain, a far distance from where they had just been. And yet, the woman had apparently not only heard the conversation between her and Amita, but even thought of it as noisy. 
"Damn, talk about having sharp ears..." 
"I heard that!" 
Again. She had heard Rem whispering to herself. Be it due to magic or whatever, the woman's hearing really was excellent. 
"I know why you two are here. It has to do with the princess who turns into a cat, correct?" 
"Y-Yeah! Please, I'm begging! Please lift her curse!" 
Rem had no plan, no trick up her sleeve. With her arms wrapped tight around Alferez, still sitting on the floor, she did the only thing she could: beg. 
"It cannot be done", the witch answered coldly. 
"Why!? Aren't you the one who cast it in the first place!?" 
"While that is true, I was asked to make it so that even I couldn't break it. I hope you don't take it personally." 
"'Asked'...?" 
Right. This was the first question Rem had wanted to ask her when she learned that the witch knew about Alferez; why did she curse her? 
"Keh keh keh. Ah, those eyes. They're the eyes of one who understands nothing. Very well, the foolish look on your face has won me over. Allow me to explain everything", the old lady said and shook her cane. As she did, a bench slid over from next to the wall. She motioned the girls to sit down, before preparing another sofa facing them for herself. Though bewildered by the magic happening before her, Rem quickly sat down, as did Alferez. She seemed completely exhausted and quickly laid her head on the elf's lap. 
The witch waited for them to be done, before hunching over against her cane and letting out a small laugh. 
"Now then, where to begin... Perhaps from your parents, half-elf?" 
"All I know about them is that they were a human and an elf, both women... I haven't been told anything beyond that." 
Exactly. Never had she really thought about who her human mother was. Though at times she had found it difficult to believe that she had been born to two women, her circumstances had been filled with far too much misfortune for her to have the time to realise the truth. 
"Is she... Alferez's mother?" 
"Indeed. I don't know exactly how they came in touch, whether the human got lost in the woods or the curious elf went to play in the human village, but that's not important. What matters is that those two members of different races met and fell in love." 
The old lady smiled and giggled, clearly making fun of this love story between women. Though it did make Rem furious, she wanted to hear the rest and decided to hold her anger in. 
"Now then, here is where the problem appears. The human and the elf were both women. Under normal circumstances, it would have been impossible for the two to have a child. So, how exactly were you and the princess born?" 
"With... secret elven arts?" 
That's what her aunt had told Rem. However, she wasn't sure exactly what they were. That answer had apparently been quite amusing, and the old lady had a fit of laughter before replying. 
"Good grief... The elf-importance of elves' truly knows no bounds... Were they really planning to keep it all a secret from you? What a joke. I can't help but to laugh!" 
Rem wasn't laughing. Instead, she puffed her cheeks and glared at the woman before her. However, being a witch, the anger of a young girl obviously had no effect on her. 
"Half-elf. There is a tree by the name of 'tree of origin' in your village, correct?" 
How did she know? Even in the land of elves, Rem's village was nothing but a small, rural town. Despite its grandiose name, the tree of origin was likely something only known to the locals. Then how, how did the old lady know about it? 
"Behind that tree, there is an entrance. Entrance to a hidden spring, where the power of a god resides." 
"God's... spring?" 
"Indeed. It is said to have the power to make any single wish come true." 
This was the first Rem had heard about it. She didn't know what to say. The tree she had been forced to guard held such a secret? 
"I've heard that originally only the elders knew about it. However, as it eventually became a legend among witches, some regular elves ended up hearing about it as well. The secret, meant to be kept forever, leaked out, and... I'm sure that you can figure out what happened next." 
Once again the lady giggled. 
"In other words, my mothers used the spring's power to become pregnant..." 
"There are some additional procedures that you need to complete first, from what I hear, but yes, indeed. The young elf brought a human to the secret spring of her people. Not only did those two women fall in love, they broke the taboo and had children. And, what happened after that... Hihihi! You probably know already." 
She did. Two women, fallen in love. Furthermore, one of them—the human one—was a princess. They were separated, never to be allowed to meet each other again. 
"The elf gave birth to you, and the human to the princess. In other words, twins born from different mothers. The human king and the elven elders were naturally outraged, and a promise was made to never let the two pairs of mothers and daughters come in contact. That was meant to be the end of it, but it wasn't." 
Rem now understood why she hadn't been allowed to leave the village. But, was that really all there was to it? Had they done this all just because they didn't want her to meet Alferez? A look of suspicion rose on her face, which the old witch saw and laughed brightly. 
"The elders of your village asked me for my help. They asked me to make the human princess's body into one that would never allow her to get married!" 
"Why!? Didn't my mother break the rules just the same as Alferez's?" 
"Being elves themselves, perhaps they thought that the human woman had corrupted their dear young child. Or it could have been an act of revenge for learning about the secret spring. Anyway, their motive doesn't matter. The Queen became furious once she found out, and through a series of rumours—some true and some false—managed to convince her people into both fearing and hating the elves." 
"And they believed her!?" 
That was what had caused the divide between humans and elves, the reason behind the misfortune Rem had suffered? Filled with sadness, she drew closer to the woman. 
"Elves and humans had never really interacted all that much, at least not publicly. With no one in the human world to dispel those rumours, they spread like wildfire. It only took less than two decades." 
"No way..." 
Rem moved even closer to her, unable to believe what she was hearing. 
"You understand, don't you? Those young girls breaking the rules on a whim is what led to the two races detesting each other. The sin is yours to carry. The princess turned into a cat, and as for you, half-elf... how are you planning to atone? Please, I would be very interested to hear." 
The witch giggled. "Maybe a dog", she laughed, "or perhaps a caterpillar". The young elf, however, wasn't listening. 
"On a whim...? Mother... had me on a whim?" 
No, that couldn't be. Her mother had always looked lonely when she spoke about Rem's human mother, but also happy. Her smile had been calm and soft, not one that belonged to a sinner. 
That's right... Those two weren't just playing around. They really, truly loved each other. 
It was for that reason that they had wanted children badly enough to break the rules. They likely knew that higher powers would soon separate them, and wanted to leave a proof of their love before that. Rem understood that sentiment well, painfully so. In this moment, she loved Alferez. 
And yet, a complete stranger was making fun of her feelings. Just the thought made her furious. Her fists clenched tight, and despite knowing basically nothing, she felt genuine hatred towards the old lady she had just met. 
"Meow... Rem..." 
Just then, as if having sensed her bloodlust, Alferez let out a small whimper. 
Right. This is no time to be losing my patience. I need to save Al...! 
The elf opened her clenched fists and stroked the hair of the girl laying on her lap, to calm her down as much as to calm herself down. She then turned towards the witch and asked her about the princess's current state. 
"Al... I mean, Alferez, is turning more and more into a cat... Is that because—?" 
"No. It's not part of the curse I cast. You thought you wouldn't mind her being a cat, correct? That's all I can say." 
"So... she's eventually going to turn into a cat permanently...?" 
"Like I told you, I don't know. However, judging by the way she is, that does seem plausible." 
"No way... That... That can't be..." 
Rem was starting to fall into despair. If the curse was advancing, but the person who cast it said they couldn't break it, then what was she supposed to do now? 
I found the witch, and it didn't even matter. All I did was learn about my and Al's secret... 
That information was really important too, of course, and had she not been in the situation she was, she likely would have been way more shocked about it. However, saving Alferez took first priority. They could worry about being twins later. 
"Is there really no cure?" 
With the girl in her arms, Rem asked the question one last time. The old woman didn't answer, however, and instead stood up and sighed as if she had lost interest. 
"Don't just ask others to explain, but think for yourself a little. Now then, it's time for my nap. Would the guests mind leaving?" 
"H-Hold on! I'm not done speaking to you y—" 
Before she could finish, the witch shook her cane. As she did, the elf's body rose in the air, and the whirlpool from earlier appeared once again. 
"Noo! Not this!" 
Rem felt like she was going to throw up. Not only that, this was taking way longer than the previous one. She gripped Alferez as hard as she could, trying to endure it, until suddenly her bottom thudded against the ground. 
"Ouch!" 
With two people's worth of weight on her butt, the elf felt a sharp pain, and her eyes watered. This was the final straw, and Rem burst into a fit of rage. 
"What the heck was that granny's problem!? If she can't break the curse, then we went there for nothing!" 
Still on her butt, she waved her arms and legs wildly. This series of unbelievable and unforgivable things had gotten the girl to her boiling point. 
"Also, she's the one who cast the curse!? Is wanting to have children with someone you love really that big of a crime!?" 
"Children...?" 
The half-cat Alferez looked up to the yelling elf. Like a child who had just woken up, she rubbed her eyes. Seeing her innocent stare brought Rem back to reality, and she finally decided to take a look around to see where they had landed. 
"Are we inside a building...? No... We're inside the wagon!" 
She quickly grabbed her bow from the floor. If they really had returned to the foot of the mountain, then it made sense to assume that Amita would be waiting for them. It didn't really make sense to act cautious after yelling as much as she had, but still, just in case, Rem only stuck out half of her head as she took a look outside. 
"She's not here. Wait... Where are we?" 
The scenery around them was different compared to what it had been before they were transported to the mansion. There were trees everywhere, but unlike the ones at Mount Kedros, these ones were covered in green, lush leaves. As Rem jumped out from the wagon to check where they were, she noticed something under her feet and gasped. 
"These stones... Wait, isn't this the road that leads to Al's manor!?" 
They were home. The two girls—as well as the wagon—had travelled such a massive distance in an instant. The old woman's strength truly was something to be afraid of. With magic as powerful as this on her fingertips, turning a girl into a cat must have been trivial for her. 
Well, whatever. If they truly were home, then that was all that mattered. Rem rode the wagon along the road, and shortly after, the manor she had missed so much appeared before her. The yard did seem a bit messier than the first time she had seen it, but she didn't care. All the elf wanted to do now was head to the bedroom and get some rest. 
"That sure was something. Can you believe it, Al? We're sisters!" 
Alferez simply stared back with a look of confusion on her face. It was impossible to know how much of what Rem had said she understood. The elf was talking to her like she was a child, or at least how she thought you'd speak to one; it was hard for her to tell as she had no experience dealing with them. 
Anyhow, she grabbed the girl in her arms, hopped off the wagon, and carried her inside. At last, they were back. 
"Home sweet home!" 
With her cat ears wiggling, Alferez sprang off to look for a suitable bedroom, and the elf followed suit. Though they had ran off in a hurry after Amita's attack, thanks to the time Rem had spent cleaning the place up as a maid, all the rooms were relatively clean. 
"Let's go with this room for today." 
Having a countless number of equally luxurious bedrooms to choose from filled Rem with nostalgia. She lowered Alferez on the bed, but just as she was about to lie next to her, the girl tugged her shirt. 
"Hey, Rem... 'Children'...?" she asked slowly while staring up into the elf's eyes. Her head was bent slightly to the side, like that of a little child's when asking a question. Rem lay down on the bed as well, facing Alferez. 
"I was talking about how our mothers had us. Everyone got real mad at them." 
"Huh? I don't get it..." 
Alferez frowned. Apparently the elf's indirect approach wasn't to her liking. Nevertheless, Rem took the confused girl and embraced her tightly. 
"You don't need to understand. Two lovers tormented by those around them isn't something worth understanding." 
Not only were they of different races, they were also both women. The backlash they must have faced had likely been far greater than Rem could ever imagine. And yet, she and Alferez went one step beyond by being sisters as well. Trying to get anyone to approve of their relationship would be extremely difficult, if not outright impossible. 
"Despite that all, those two loved each other and did their best to stay together. They even had children..." 
With feelings as strong as those behind their birth, Rem didn't want anyone to deny them. And yet, with the way she was right now, the elf was powerless. She couldn't even do anything about Alferez's curse. The future looked dim, and as despair filled her body, she unconsciously squeezed the girl tighter. 
"Children...? I want children too... With Rem..." 
"Huh!?" 
Rem was taken aback by the strange phrase that had been whispered into her ear. She looked at Alferez for an explanation, but the only answer she got was a smile full of innocence. All of a sudden, however, the girl's cat ears tensed up, and she pressed her lips on the elf's. 
"Meow... Rem... Let's make a baby..." 
"H-Hold on! Al! Do you even realise what's coming out of your mout— Hyaah!?" 
Still kissing her, Alferez pushed Rem against the bed and licked her neck and ears like a kitten. Though the elf knew that this wasn't the time for this, the anxiety and frustration she felt did make escaping it all to a world of pleasure seem like quite an attractive option. As the girl's hands touched more of her body, it became impossible for her to resist the temptation. 
"Ah... Mhh..." 
Rem moaned, and before she knew it, her hand had moved on Alferez's cheek, begging for a kiss. With a smile on her face, the cat-princess complied. Though her mental abilities might have become weaker, it didn't mean that she had lost her memory. The girl moved her tongue in the elf's mouth confidently, rubbing it against hers. She aimed for all of her favourite spots, and a moment later, Rem was fully in the mood for sex. 
"Ah... Ahn... Ahh... Haaaa..." 
Kissing alone had filled her head with pure ecstasy. With their lips still connected, the two girls hastily tossed off their clothes, and once they were fully nude, embraced each other tightly. Their breasts pressed against each other, with Rem on the top this time. 
"Ahn... Haa... Al, your boobs... are so soft... They feel amazing..." 
"Haaa... Yours too, Rem... I love how... stiff your nipples are..." 
Rem moaned, and as their skin rubbed together, waves of pleasure shot through her body. Unable to take it for any longer, she caught the girl's thigh between her own. At the same time, Alferez's left hand fondled the elf's butt, sliding down the crevice between her round cheeks before reaching the shameful hole hidden behind them. 
"Hyaah!" 
Rem shrieked, and her back arched. As the girl drew circles around the hole with her fingertips, she felt both a sense of uncomfort, as well as an irresistible throb. Without even realising that she was doing it, the elf shook her backside. 
"You licked my butt last time. I'll make you feel good with your butt too!" 
"Al, stop! Hold on... Haa... Haaa... Haa..." 
She panted hard. Her body wouldn't stop shaking. Furthermore, Alferez was sucking her nipples from below, causing Rem's bottom to jump up and down in pleasure. Though she might have been the one on the top, she was most certainly on the receiving end. 
"I-I'll... do it too... Aaaahh!!" 
Planning to launch a counter-attack, the elf reached for the girl's breasts, but before she could, her hand suddenly stiffened. The reason for this was simple; Alferez had moved her right hand to Rem's slit, spread her lips, and plunged her fingers in. She moved them in and out, rubbing the walls near her entrance. 
"Haa! Aaah! Haaaa!" 
The simultaneous assault of both of her holes caused Rem to whimper. Pleased by her reaction, the princess replied cheerfully. 
"I know that this is where babies are born from." 
"O-Of course you do! You've been married like a dozen times..." 
"Yep. And that's why I'm gonna marry you next! This time I'll get to be happy." 
Though Alferez hadn't really meant anything too serious with her statement, it was still enough to cause the elf to choke. That was exactly what she had wished for. And, at the same time, what might send them down the same road as their mothers had walked. As things were right now, only sadness and sorrow waited them there. Nevertheless, Rem's chest squeezed tight with joy; despite all the divorces and remarriages the girl had gone through, the word "this time" showed her true feelings. 
I don't care that she's my sister. I'm... I'm never going to let her go! 
Feeling both sorrow, as well as a mix of pleasure and happiness, she stroked Alferez's hair. 
"Yeah. Let's be happy, Al... Ah! Ahh!" 
Focusing too much on her lower half had left Rem's breasts defenceless. Near instantly the girl took advantage of her vulnerability and latched onto her nipple. She sucked it strongly, almost as if trying to squeeze out milk, which in turn caused the elf to lose strength in her hips. 
"Suck! Suck! Ahn... Rem, your milk's not coming out!" 
"O-Of course it's not... That only happens once you get pregnant... Also, you look like a baby, Al..." 
"Meow! Okay! Today, I'll be a baby!" 
Alferez showed no signs of giving up and sucked Rem's nipple even more intensely than before. She continued moving her fingers inside her as well, causing every muscle in the elf's strengthless body to tense up. Sounds of wetness assaulted her ears, and she couldn't tell if they were coming from the girl's saliva or her own love juices. As the embarrassment she felt grew, so did the painful throb of joy within her. 
"Ah... Ah... What a... mischievous baby you are..." Rem said, wanting to show that was she calm. However, even those words ended up coming out as a trembling mess. 
Come to think of it, would we be able to have children too? 
Of course, she wasn't planning to do that. The two of them were sisters, after all. And yet, she couldn't take her mind off the elven spring, said to fulfil any single wish. Had she really been guarding such a thing without even knowing it? She felt like a fool. 
Just then, Rem realised something. Something very important. 
"...Wait!" 
Wanting to confirm the flash of hope she had just seen, the elf begged Alferez to stop touching her. However, with no way for her to know what the elf had just realised, the girl simply sank her teeth into her nipple. 
"Hnngh!" 
The sharp pain transformed into pleasure by the time it reached her lower half, causing thick honey to gush out from her slit. Even Rem herself was shocked by the amount; there was enough of it to drip down her thighs. Furthermore, the princess's fingers were still moving, now faster than ever. 
"Ehehe! You're all wet down here, Rem!" 
"Y-You don't need to say that! Anyway, could you stop for a second? I need to talk to you about somethi— Ahn! Ahhn!" 
The fact that pain made her feel good caused the elf such embarrassment that she almost forgot her realisation. 
"Hey, Al! There's a fountain at the elf village... that grants any wish. If we go there, we might be able to break your curs— Ahn! Hey, listen! Ahn! Aaahn!" 
Rem tried her hardest to put her idea into words before she forgot it. However, though she was the exact person who should have heard the information, the girl was far too busy wriggling her fingers inside the elf's slit to listen. 
"Aaah... Nooo..." 
The throb between her legs soon grew irresistible, and Rem too stopped thinking. Leaving all the difficult things for later, she retaliated by tickling Alferez's cat ears. 
"Hii! Meow!?" the girl shrieked and shook her shoulders violently, like a cat drying its wet fur. It seemed that her ears really were sensitive. This was only the beginning, however, and next the elf rubbed her breasts, as well as pressed her lips on hers. Rem's mouth was full of saliva from the earlier moaning, and as their tongues played with each other, it flowed into the girl's. 
"Ahn... Meow... Rem, more!" 
Begging for more saliva, Alferez rolled around in the bed. She was now the one on the top. 
"Meow!" she moaned cutely and licked Rem's ear. Waves of pleasure travelled through the elf's body, and before she knew it, her hands had grabbed tight on the girl's shoulders. Her tongue moved from the elf's ear to her neck, filling her body with violent rushes of joy, to the point that she felt like she might reach climax from this alone. 
"Al! Your tongue... feels incredible!" she screamed with a quivering voice, earning a bright smile from Alferez. Charmed by the sparkle of her eyes, both innocent and mysterious, Rem could no longer go on without a kiss. The girl didn't give her what she wanted, however, and as if continuing where she had left off, began licking the elf's breasts. Her cat tongue moved up them, from base to peak, creating an illusion that pleasure was shooting out from Rem's nipples. 
"Aaaahhh...! Al, yes! My boobs feel so good... And my nipples! Aaahh!" 
Answering the elf's plea, Alferez flicked her flower buds. It felt incredible, and the girl's tongue being in its half-cat state only added to the pleasure. Each time its slightly-rough surface rubbed against her nipple, Rem felt like part of her brain shut down. Little by little her mind was going blank. 
I-It feels good... but... 
If the power of the spring could break the curse, she would never again experience this unique pleasure. That's how things were meant to be, but Rem didn't care; the pleasure had beaten her, and for a brief moment the thought of keeping the girl like this crossed her mind. 
No, that's stupid! I'm going to save Al. I'll turn her back into a regular princess! 
The elf scolded herself for being so weak and restated her oath. 
(But, when she's back to normal... will I be able to stay by her side?) 
Once Alferez was a regular princess, there would be no reason for her to stay in the manor. Feeling as strongly about her duty as a member of the royal house as she did, she would likely end up getting married off like she was always meant to. Would there be a place left for her, a half-elf? 
Sadness and anxiety assaulted Rem. Her chest felt heavy. They had wished to stay together forever and promised to break the curse, but perhaps they just weren't compatible. 
"That's... Haa! Ahh! Aaaahn!?" 
The elf getting lost in thought had given Alferez's tongue a chance to invade her lower half. It brushed her pubic hair aside and swiftly slid between her legs, now spread wide open for some reason. The sadness had made Rem impatient, and her crotch throbbed with great heat, as if she had wet herself. She felt the girl's breath against her genitals and eagerly awaited for the coming pleasure. And yet, right before Alferez touched her, her instincts kicked in. In panic and terror, she screamed: 
"Al, wait! If you lick there with that tongue, I'll—" 
It was too late to stop her, however. The girl's coarse tongue pressed against her slit and quickly licked up her folds. 
"Hiiiii!" 
The sensation was unlike anything Rem had expected. An explosion of pleasure pierced through her head. She had been pushed all the way to climax, and her back arched up from the bed. And yet, the girl didn't stop. Like a kitten drinking milk, she continued licking her wet slit. 

 


"Noo! Please, let me rest! I'm way too sensitiv— Hyaaaahn!" 
Rem tried to push Alferez's head back, but with her tongue already deep inside, the elf couldn't put any force behind her arms. Every last drop of the thick fluids packed behind her lips was being carefully licked out by the princess's tongue, moving in and out and all around her tiny slit, only the length of a single finger. Rem's butt lifted up from the sheets, and her entire body rocked back and forth in an obscene way. 
"Al! I'm... I'm going to cum again! Haa! Aaahhh!" 
With her knees up and her legs spread, the elf's shameful torment continued. Her privates loved every second of it, and her insides shook, feeling an orgasm far bigger than the last one coming. Moaning heavily, her eyes suddenly met Alferez's, and the girl stared at her innocently. She looked irresistibly cute, and at the same time, her ears and tail filled the elf with sadness. 
I promise you... I'll turn you back to normal! 
She could think about them staying together after she had broken the girl's curse. Just then, as if to test the strength of her determination, Alferez's coarse tongue moved up to her lovebud. 
"Haa! Hii! Ahh! Ahh! Ah! Haaaa!" 
All of Rem's thoughts vanished in an instant. She closed her eyes and welcomed in the tempest of pleasure, forgetting all about her wishes and promises. She felt like her body and mind were being carried off somewhere and gripped the bedsheets tight. And yet, Alferez paid no mind to Rem's orgasm, and simply continued licking her. 
"Aah! Rem, you're twitching so much here! Lick!" 
"Haa... Stop... I-I mean it... I'm... way too sensitiv— Aaaaahh!" 
The elf was being made to cum again and again. Honey gushed out from her slit. Barely conscious, she stared at the half-cat girl happily lapping it all up. Rem vowed in her heart that she would return the princess back to normal, before allowing the endless series of orgasms to take her away.
