Chapter 51: Stupid Horses
For a brief moment, the horse halted its hoofing and glanced at Kaisen's outstretched arm, just a few feet away from its snout.
Sable raised her eyebrows in approval, nodding her head in impressed acknowledgment.
Meanwhile, Llyod had dusted himself off and joined Alice, observing the scene unfold with interest.
"That's a good approach. Did you see that, Llyod-san and Alice-san?"
Sable advised, her tone firm yet encouraging.
"When approaching a horse, talk to it and calm it down. Make it think you're its friend. And Kaisen-kun is doing perfectly fine."
The duo nodded in agreement as they watched Kaisen's progress.
Meanwhile, Kaisen was sweating profusely, feeling the horse's breath on his hand. He could almost feel the warmth of its snout now.
Then, after a tense pause, the horse took a step forward, causing Kaisen's heart to leap with excitement.
"Yeeess... Just like that. Come to papa, girl."
Kaisen cooed, his voice trembling with nerves.
"The horse is giving in now. Slowly put your hand on its nose and gently stroke its--"
Sable's advice was abruptly cut off by the horse, which promptly kicked Kaisen straight in the family jewels.
Kaisen's eyes widened in shock as he doubled over in pain, his voice erupting into a high-pitched squeal of agony.
The horse snorted triumphantly, as if to say, "Not today, buddy."
"Oh."
Maximus muttered, wincing sympathetically as he watched Kaisen rolling around in the mud, clutching his balls and screaming in agony.
Meanwhile, Llyod suddenly grabbed his own balls, his face contorted in pain as if he could feel Kaisen's agony as well.
"Well, that's a first. Never seen a horse go for a guy's nuts before."
Maximus remarked, his moustache twirling in amusement.
Alice immediately rushed to Kaisen's side, a mixture of concern and suppressed laughter on her face.
She began to heal him with her magic, but deliberately avoided his groin area—tempted though she was—since there were people nearby.
Instead, she focused on his chest, sending golden light coursing through his entire body.
"Damned bloody horse! My poor balls!"
Kaisen howled in agony, tears streaming down his face.
After a moment, he managed to stand up again, albeit gingerly, now that his balls were healed.
Glaring at the black horse, which seemed to be laughing with its incessant neighing, Kaisen's determination hardened.
Joining Llyod, they both shot fierce glares at the horses, ready to assert their dominance once and for all.
Like brothers from another mother, but in this case, more like brothers who shared the same hole.
It was Alice's turn next.
She gulped nervously, closing her eyes and taking a few deep breaths to steady herself.
With a newfound determination, she opened her eyes and set her sights on a white horse nearby.
Taking slow, deliberate steps, she approached the horse, her heart pounding in her chest.
"That's it, Alice-san. Stay calm and gentle."
Sable commented, her chin resting on her hand as she observed.
"Show those horses who's boss, Alice-san!"
Llyod cheered enthusiastically, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Yeah, Alice-san. Show these motherfuckers who's in charge!"
Kaisen added, earning a puzzled glance from Llyod and a 'what the fuck' expression from him.
Alice paid no mind to their antics and followed Sable's advice, approaching the horse cautiously.
"Easy... easy."
She cooed, extending her arm tentatively.
To the boys' disappointment, the horse remained calm, its eyes locked on hers as if entranced.
Llyod and Kaisen exchanged hopeful glances, ready to celebrate Alice's inevitable kick to the groin.
However, to their dismay, the damn horse simply snorted and lowered its head, allowing Alice to pat it without incident.
"Ara ara. Congratulations, Alice-san. You're the first to pass the first lesson."
Sable applauded, her claps slow and deliberate.
She glanced at the boys with a hint of mockery, as if silently saying, "Too bad, I would've kissed you if you had succeeded."
Llyod and Kaisen cursed under their breaths, shooting furious glares at the horses, who remained blissfully unaware of their frustration.
As the duo tried again, their attempts ended in failure, much to the amusement of Maximus and Sable, who watched with entertained expressions.
Meanwhile, Alice continued to impress, managing to coax the horse into lowering itself and allowing her to mount its back.
Under Sable's guidance, she learned the basics of steering and control, her confidence growing with each passing moment.
While the boys ran around like headless chickens, trying and failing miserably to approach the horses, Alice's horse was like putty in her hands.
It did whatever she asked without a fuss.
As Alice rode the horse, there was a slow and almost magical connection forming between them.
They seemed to be getting to know each other, like old friends catching up after a long time apart.
And yeah, Kaisen couldn't help but notice how Alice's boobs bounced ever so slightly while she rode.
It was kind of funny, but also kind of mesmerizing in a weird way.
'Noice. Noice.'
He lazily admired the heavenly scenery around him, lost in thought.
But in the blink of an eye, he found himself airborne, with the horse's hooves squarely landing on his buttocks.
"Fuck these horses!"
He cursed, punching the air.
Finally, Llyod succeeded in riding his horse, albeit slowly.
After a few hours of practice, Maximus announced that it was time to go.
Kaisen and Llyod were sweaty and exhausted from their efforts, while Alice seemed to radiate with energy, shining like the morning sun.
They were supposed to leave that day, but it seemed like that wasn't going to happen at all.
The thought of having to face the queen and the princess after already saying goodbye was embarrassing enough.
'Especially that stupid princess. She's going to mock me like a bitch.'
"If it weren't for the boys, we would've left long ago and reached Hero Square by now. But, well..."
Sable trailed off, a mischievous glint in her eyes as she glanced at Kaisen.
She and her fiancé had removed their cloaks and now were dressed in civilian attire, as if they wanted to blend in with the crowd.
Sable let out a giggle as they walked through the palace corridors.
"I hope you're not that incompetent in matters of the bedroom."
She added playfully, her tone teasing.
Maximus wore light green pants paired with a neatly tucked-in brown shirt.
However, Sable's attire commanded attention.
She wore a tight, white gown that clung to her curves like a second skin.
The gown started just above her breasts, teasing a hint of cleavage before skimming down her entire body.
Kaisen couldn't help but notice the way the fabric hugged her every curve, accentuating her figure.
He found it difficult to tear his gaze away, especially as he couldn't help but notice the subtle bounce of her breasts with each step she took.
Alice couldn't help but giggle at Sable's playful comment, causing Llyod to shyly look away with a blush creeping up his cheeks.
Meanwhile, Kaisen shot Alice a look that seemed to say, "Just you wait until I get you alone."
Alice gulped nervously and quickly averted her gaze, feeling the intensity of Kaisen's stare.
The brief exchange didn't go unnoticed by Sable, whose keen eyes missed nothing.
