Women tied up being whipped by a gnome

Kazuhiro Kitase’s only hobby? Sleeping, of course. Since childhood, his dreams have been a portal to exhilarating adventures with an elf girl. During one of their explorations through ancient ruins, they both get scorched by a dragon, and Kazuhiro wakes up like usual. Except this time, he finds a familiar figure in bed beside him—the elf girl from his dreams.

The digital presence left by people I knew who died young has vanished. Songs they’ve uploaded, photo albums, public diary entries, all deleted and all that’s left is generic obituaries.

Male goblins are known to attack people, kidnap women, rape them and father children with helpless captives. When a group of devout pilgrims travel through the forest without an escort, they fall victim to such a goblin attack. The lovely Anvil is the only one left alive in the attack, and her god does not seem to be answering her prayers, as the lustful goblins take her with them to feast on her as much as possible. She chooses not to resist, for to refuse would be her death sentence. Is it perhaps even the will of her master that she should help these lowly creatures to satisfy the almost insatiable desire that plagues her?
