Chapter 121 - Chapter 119: Gala's Conspiracy
Gala was infatuated with Princess Shua.
Wanting to show the princess his strong and cool side, he had heard about a "dungeon for beginners" and invited the princesses. When they arrived at their destination, the man they had seen at the Adventurer Guild was there, accompanied by two women, and was said to be A-rank.
Looking at the A-rank adventurer, he seemed like a gentle young man with two beautiful women. He also had two Silver Wolves with him.
(These guys are A-rank? He's got some fine women attending him and acting all high and mighty. Surely, he's just some rich boy who bought his rank with money.)
That was the assumption he made when he picked a fight.
'To be able to speak so strongly to an A-rank without flinching! Gala, you're so manly and tough! Wonderful!'
He believed Shua would think that of him. And his plan was to make her fall for him and embrace her. For that, he needed to secure lodging anywhere, a place where her guards couldn't reach.
In the Kingdom of Rhodesia, Gala was the second son of a Duke's family, so anything he did was forgiven. If by any chance there was retaliation, his guards would have handled it, and it should have worked out this time too.
But his guards disappeared and had returned to the imperial capital before he knew it. The result was that, far from being liked by Princess Shua, she came to hate him and even told him to "go back to your country."
Until he could embrace Princess Shua, he had absolutely no intention of returning. Opportunities for the princess to go outside were extremely rare. He was scum who thought that, at worst, rape would be fine. But even that chance seemed to be slipping away.
(I don't want a duel! Why is this happening? If I die, it's all for nothing! And on top of that, that bastard is a student at the Academy? What a day!)
To make matters worse, he fainted in front of everyone. Having soiled himself with feces and urine, he became a laughingstock and shut himself in his room.
One week had passed since the opening ceremony.
Gala had become a shut-in, his complexion like that of a corpse. Then Kari and Zame came to Gala's room.
"We looked into that guy, the one called Shivans. That guy is seriously bad news! Last year, right after enrollment, a prince challenged him to a duel and he showed no mercy. Normally, if a prince challenges you, you'd grovel on your knees and apologize, right?"
Hearing Kari's words, Gala asked, "Can't we get that prince on our side?"
"Impossible. That prince died in the war against our faction. It seems that guy beat the prince half to death in the duel. Knowing full well that going to the battlefield in such a state would be fatal, His Majesty the Emperor here apparently sent him off to war anyway."
"Why! Why was a guy like that in a beginner dungeon! He should just go to a tougher place! Damn it!"
Gala cried out in fear.Then, Zame spoke up, "About that matter..."
"Apparently, that dungeon isn't for beginners. Beginners are only allowed near the entrance, and the depths are tough even for advanced adventurers. And since that territory is managed by Shivans' father, it's not strange for Shivans to be there."
"I'm... such an unlucky man!"
The two were fed up with Gala as he lashed out violently.Because he was from a Duke's family, all his selfish demands had always been indulged, making him arrogant and conceited.
Perhaps he felt a little better after his rampage?Gala twisted his handsome face into a sinister expression and consulted with the two.
"Hey? If we're going to be killed anyway, let's do those three women! Kari and Zame, you've had plenty of good times thanks to me, right? At worst, let's gang-rape Shua at least. And assassinate that brat! I'm tired of pretending to be a good boy! Let's teach those noble brats our terror and our dirty methods!"
Gala instructed Kari to "stall the duel as much as possible to buy time," and ordered Zame to "arrange an assassin and kill Shivans!"
"Let's figure out a way to drag those three women into this room. At worst, let's just drag Shua in. As usual, if we spike their drinks with that super-strong drug, it'll be easy, right?"
Saying this, he showed them a powdery white drug.
"Oh! Gala, you brought your usual drug?"
"Of course, Kari! Who the hell do you think I am! If you make them drink this, they won't even remember who they slept with! Even virgins become total sluts! I'll give you guys a good time again too! Kahahaha!"
Then, Zame, trembling and fidgeting, asked Gala worriedly, "B-but, that drug has a huge backlash and strong side effects. Even if the princesses don't remember, if they become mental wrecks, won't we be found out as the culprits? Won't we get caught?"
"In that case, we just dump them somewhere and make it look like they were raped, right? They won't remember who they slept with anyway! If we coordinate our stories to say they were attacked after drinking with us, there's no problem! More importantly, I'm counting on you for the duel delay scheme and Shivans' assassination!"
At Gala's words, Kari and Zame snickered.The three of them failed to notice that a single bird had been watching the entire scene.
After the opening ceremony, once I finished greeting the exchange students, I pulled Kate and Aria, who had the faces of women, close and took them to the White Castle.
"Honestly! Do you know how long I've been waiting?"
"Aristo seems so absorbed in the exchange students, it's like he's forgotten about me. Love me!"
Kate and Aria immediately stripped completely naked, and I undressed as well. Without even taking a bath, they wanted to be embraced right away. While casting 'Clean,' I first kissed Kate in preparation to hold her.
Making lewd sounds of slurping and splashing, we greedily embraced and kissed. When I removed her underwear, sucked on her breasts, and licked her nipples, she said, "They've gotten bigger again, haven't they? I want to match my Master's tastes. I've been enduring it all with just masturbation," and pressed my face against her chest.
"Ah! Just having my nipples sucked, I'm already about to cum! Is it okay to cum? I feel it so much! I'm cumming! I'm cumming already!"
When I promptly used manual stimulation as well, she immediately squirted with a gushing sound.
"Please! I'll do lots of fellatio later! First, I want you to thrust into my slutty pussy! I want your cock! Fingers feel good too, but make me cum with my Master's cock!"
Upon insertion, she trembled violently. "My body is rejoicing! Can you tell? I've been cumming this whole time! Ah, ah, aah! Cumming cumming cumming!" she screamed, convulsing and shaking, tears streaming down her face in ecstasy.
"Hold me tighter! So much that I know I'm my Master's woman! So much that I want lots of impregnating sex! I want to make my Master's cock feel good too!"
"I'm cumming inside, Kate!"
"Of course! Aah, cumming cumming cumming! Aaah!"
When I released, she shuddered and trembled, tears flowing again. After she finished the cleaning fellatio, it was Aria's turn next. She wanted to be pleasured with restraints and prepared them. First, we kissed normally.
"You're as gentle as ever! Aristo has never even kissed me once!"
When I kissed her while holding her tight, she was so overjoyed that she cried.
"They're beautiful, and they've gotten bigger again!"
When I praised her breasts, kneaded them, stretched out my tongue, licked, and sucked, she said, "I'm so happy! Only Shivans does this! Praise my body more! I'm cumming just from my nipples!" and trembled, seemingly having a light orgasm.
When I used manual stimulation too, she cried out, "Nooo! I'm cumming! Ah! I'm squirting! I'm going to pee too!" and convulsed violently while squirting and urinating.
After casting Clean and having her do 69, she sucked me carefully.When I started licking and rolled my tongue over her clit, she said, "I can't suck... I want to suck your cock, but my pussy is being spread open, and when your tongue goes inside... I'm cumming again!" and squirted with a gushing sound.
When I inserted in missionary position, she clung to me, crying, "I love Shivans' cock! I love it! I love you! More! More!" and tightened her vagina.
"This cock knows my body inside and out! I will definitely bear Shivans' child someday! Give me lots inside today too!"
"Yeah! I'm cumming, Aria!"
Saying that, we shared a fiercely greedy kiss, I pulled her hips close, and released deep inside.
"Cumming cumming cumming! Hot semen is being poured inside me! It feels so good! I know I'm Shivans' woman!"
With a satisfied expression, she performed cleaning fellatio for me.
After both of them were embraced by me until noon, Kate said, "As I thought, my pussy only responds to my Master!"
"Kate has finally graduated from useless men!"
"I graduated a long time ago, Aria!"
The two laughed together, but I was concerned about Kate's future.
"Speaking of which, you'll graduate in about half a year, right? What are your plans?"
"Eh? Have you forgotten already? I said I'd be your sex slave for life, didn't I?"
I remembered, but when I asked, "Are you serious?" she nodded.
"Because, I'm still scared of other men, and my womb is still broken. No man would want a woman like this. Even if my womb heals, I don't want other men anymore! Let me stay by your side forever! So, shall we do it one more time?"
She immediately performed fellatio, and once I was hard, she straddled me.
"I want you to stay by my side forever! Hold me just occasionally is fine! I'll keep doing my best to be called a good woman!"
"Kate, you are a good woman!"
Crying profusely, she said, "I love you so much!" and clung to me while shaking her hips violently.
"Amazing, Kate! I'm about to cum!"
"Ufufu! It's fine! I'm a woman who makes you cum inside forever!"
"B-but, someday, you'll get pregnant, you know?"
She held me tight and whispered in a small voice, "The me right now loves my Master. Surely, the future me will too! Because I don't want to get pregnant by another man."
While performing cleaning fellatio, Kate murmured, "Half a year, huh..."
"I still have a year and a half! As long as I'm a student, I can always be Shivans' woman."
Aria said that, then kissed me and writhed as I fondled her chest. After sending the two back to school, I went to Port Town Marino to enjoy myself with Kiku, Inori, Shikari, and Chou.
After their meeting with me ended, the princesses Shua and Jen were writing a letter to their father, the king. Jen was furious, wondering, "Who on earth made this personnel selection?"
Shua's letter was long.
"Far from deepening friendly relations, Gala picked a fight with the son of Viscount Butler, who is said to be part of this country's military faction, causing a disturbance that led to a duel. This is a situation that can only be called a mistake in personnel selection. If a duel occurs, whether we win or lose, resentment will remain, and it will be far from a friendly relationship. We can no longer handle this on our own. Please help us. Incidentally, there seems to be almost no chance of winning."
"Deliver this letter to the royal palace with the utmost urgency!"
"Understood."
She entrusted the letter to the butler who had accompanied them, and a fast horse was dispatched.After the opening ceremony ended, the exchange students had roughly grasped the situation and had apparently been dividing up the work of gathering information on me.
Since the first-years only knew rumors, they had to ask the second and third-years.
"Gala, was it? Even if he didn't know, picking a fight with the son of the man called the 'Crimson Death,' said to be the strongest in this country, can only be called foolish! Ahahaha."
"Shivans-kun fought and won against the top student of the Knight University, and he's even fought to a draw with the strongest active knight. Someone who can beat him? I don't think there is anyone. It's pitiful, but the moment he was challenged to a duel, he should have groveled and apologized!"
"You all are exchange students, so you might not know, but until last year, this country had factional conflicts. When there was a war with your country, it was the Namibia faction that cooperated with the Kingdom of Rhodesia. The students here were also dominated by the Namibia faction, and there was bullying. But Shivans-kun thoroughly defeated them and was called a 'Devil.' You can't imagine it from his appearance, can you?"
As the exchange students gathered information almost daily, the main rumors and intel they collected were mostly along these lines.
And the exchange students reached one conclusion.
'Even if a duel is held, there is absolutely no chance of winning. If he wants to survive, he should grovel and apologize to Shivans!'
After spending a whole week, this was the only conclusion they could reach, a unanimous opinion. Who would convey this to Gala?
"Eh? I'm the one to tell him?"
Since no one wanted to be involved with Gala, the task fell to Princess Shua, the only one who was the same age and of higher status.
(I have a really bad feeling about this, but it can't be helped... Maybe I'll go to Gala's room tomorrow or something...)
She sighed and reluctantly accepted the task.
Meanwhile, at the royal palace of the Kingdom of Rhodesia, the letters from the princesses caused a huge uproar. Even at Duke Wali's family home, Gala's family, they were holding their heads, saying, "This is sheer madness. What on earth is that fool doing?"
"Father! I told you something like this was entirely possible with Gala, didn't I? How much trouble has that idiot caused this house up until now? That idiot was a representative of our country? He's brought shame not only upon our house but upon the entire nation! We're a laughingstock to the world again."
The eldest son spoke calmly for a reason. Gala had committed every act that could be called a crime.
"When he himself asked to be sent, I had hoped he was trying to become a somewhat decent human being... In this country, Gala is already synonymous with criminal..."
Duke Wali sighed and offered something like an excuse to his eldest son, but the eldest son sneered.
"Expecting something from him? Father, you are still too soft on Gala. He is no longer of any use to this country or this house. I honestly think it would be better if he died in the duel. Is there any crime left... that he hasn't committed?"
"You're right. You may be correct. I had a feeling a day like this would come someday."
Duke Wali looked up at the ceiling with a lonely expression and muttered.
The royal palace deliberated on how to handle the situation.
"In the first place! For what reason was Gala sent? You knew he had behavioral problems, didn't you?"
When the Prime Minister complained, the bureaucrats said, "H-However, His Majesty gave strict orders to select men and women of good appearance, and there was also a strong request from His Excellency Duke Wali... We were unable to refuse..."
(Indeed, that's true. It would be better to withdraw them early. If he loses the duel, it will only increase the hatred. I beg you, don't cause any more problems than this.)
"Here, we shall postpone the duel as much as possible and focus on bringing the exchange students back early!"
Everyone was racking their brains, wondering why this was happening when they had been dispatched for the sake of friendship.
Each of their respective weeks passed, and the eighth day arrived.It was Kari and Zame who called out to Shua after her classes ended.
"Princess Shua-sama. You're going to visit Gala today, right? Zame and I will guide you."
The kind-hearted princess couldn't refuse Kari's offer, delivered with a seemingly friendly smile.
"It's not a visit! It's a warning!"
"If Princess Shua-sama comes... he'll be, be delighted!"
Zame couldn't hide his excitement. The exchange students didn't live in the student dormitory but in a place like the lodging used by teachers. It was far from the student dormitory and in a location that didn't attract much attention. The men's building was quite far away, and it was also distant from the women's building.
How dangerous was it for a woman to go alone to a man's room? The sheltered young lady Shua had absolutely no idea. Her fate was to be led, nonchalantly, into Gala's room by two grinning wolves in escort's clothing.
"Welcome, Princess! It's a shabby room, but please come in!"
"You look pale, Gala. I only came to warn you, so I don't need to come inside."
As expected, the princess wasn't a fool. However, Gala mocked her, saying, "Is it a royal family custom to give warnings at the doorstep?" which irritated her.
"Well, we'll listen to the discussion too! It's not right to stand around talking in a place like this, you know!"
Pushed on the back by Kari, she entered.
"I-I'll... prepare some tea, so Princess Shua-sama, please sit down!"
What Zame prepared was initially tea, but he also had alcohol laced with the super-strong drug ready.
As she sniffed the tea served, Zame said sadly, "It's not poisoned or anything..." Shua replied, "R-Right. Anyway, listen to what I have to say!" and reported the information the exchange students had gathered.
"I see... So this Shivans guy is that strong? Then, even if we put up a proxy, it's still going to be tough..."
"That's right, Gala! I think you'll most likely lose this duel. Of course, there was an opinion that you won't know until you try. But objectively speaking, I have to say it looks grim."
Since lives were at stake, Shua argued emphatically that she couldn't casually say, "Why not give it a try?"
"But you know, I am still a member of the Duke Wali family of the Kingdom of Rhodesia. Do you think I can grovel to someone of a mere Knight Title from the Altmea Empire? Personally, I value my life. But as the opinion of a princess of the Kingdom of Rhodesia, can you say that's the right thing to do? What do you think?"
"I-I can't judge which is right... In the first place, Gala, you shouldn't have caused a commotion! Why did you do such a thing?"
He apologized and performed a dogeza. From here, he began his all-out performance.
"I love Princess Shua!"
Shua was surprised by the sudden confession, her heart pounding.
"Listen to me! We lost and became a defeated nation! We were forced to pay reparations to the idiot nobles of this country, and it was humiliating..."
Tears streamed down his face, and he wore an expression of deep regret, but Shua calmly retorted, "So what are you trying to say?"
"You saw that guy, right? He's got beautiful women attending him, keeps Silver Wolves bought with our money, and bought his A-rank with our money!"
"That might be prejudice. They say he's quite a capable person..."
Even as she said this, she recalled her father's face, forced into agonizing decisions as a defeated nation. From my perspective, I'd want to say, "You attacked us on your own, what the hell are you talking about?"
"That's why I won't bow my head! Just because we lost the war, to grovel like that... When I think of our nation's people, I absolutely cannot do it!"
He began to cry, acting as if he were a tragic hero. Shua couldn't help but feel sympathy.
"I-I understand, but... if you go through with this duel, the chances of you dying are high, you know? You understand that, right?"
"Of course. I'll fight that guy and die a noble death! So before I die, I have one last request. Will you hear it?"
"You're not going to say you want my chastity, are you? That's not acceptable..."
"No! I'm not that terrible of a man! At the end, I just want to share a drink with my beloved Princess Shua," he said. "That's fine then. Just one cup, okay?" she replied, and Gala nodded.
(One cup will become many, and she has no idea she'll be gang-raped by us. Still, Gala's performance was incredibly convincing. When that guy goes after a woman, he's amazing!)
Kari was impressed and signaled Zame with his eyes. Then the alcohol was distributed, and Gala said, "Everyone, watch how I die! Long live the Kingdom of Rhodesia! Now, a toast!" and downed his drink.
Princess Shua, who was sipping slowly, began to get drunk from just one cup.
"You people... put something... in this, didn't you?"
"Correct! From now on, the three of us are going to violate you!"
Her clothes were torn with a ripping sound. "No! Someone! Help—!" she screamed.
"Where do you think this is? It's not the royal palace, so no one's coming! Zame! Make the princess drink more and turn her into a total slut! If we're doing this, we want to feel good together, right!"
"O-Okay, Gala! Kari, hold the princess's mouth open!"
Kari forced her mouth open, and Zame made her drink. Gala was about to strip off her underwear too, and when she desperately resisted, she was hit and kicked.
"You coward! So, all those crimes up until now were you...?"
"That's right! I violated many women together with these guys! Come on! Scream and cry more! As if I'd ever go through with a duel! Idiot!"
With those final words, Shua's consciousness faded away.
