Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: The Party
Tima immediately consulted with the Madam and offered to support me as a nurse.
"While I'm at it, could I also handle your sexual desires?"
"That's fine, Tima. If you become pregnant, I'll take care of you. Do your best! But make sure Emilia-chan doesn't find out!"
She replied that she understood. It was decided that she would support me in various ways from after breakfast until dinner.
Perhaps because she had gotten over many things, Tima gradually became more and more lewd.
Morning of the Fourth Day
"Yesterday, I masturbated so much I didn't get enough sleep—! When I toy with my nipples and clit while imagining sucking a cock, I squirt right away! Seriously! The wall has changed color from Master's cum and my love juices! Kyahaha!"
Is she hyper because of lack of sleep? She's full of lewdness.
"Because, you said you like lewd women like this, Master! My lewd pussy is always wet! Because, you even appear in my dreams and violate me! Being violated feels so incredibly good!"
Even now, she's masturbating with a cock deep in her throat.
The moment my thing gets even a little bigger, she immediately straddles me.
"Here it is, here it is, here it is—! It's coming, it's coming, it's coming——! The cock pierces right through to the top of my head and blows my brains out! Aah! I can't take it anymore! I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming! I'm going crazy! I feel like even things that shouldn't come out are about to come out!"
No matter what I say to her, she's delighted.
"Super lewd? Super slut? Super pervert? If it's Master, all of them are correct!"
(What's with this hyper mood? She seems broken... What are these 'things that shouldn't come out'? Is she releasing endorphins or something?)
A notification sounded in my head: Acquired 'Adrenaline' and 'Dopamine'.
As I was thinking it was a delicate matter whether to be happy about this situation or not, she shouted, "Hey? I won't allow you to pull out! Anything other than a lewd creampie is unthinkable! Impregnate me irresponsibly like a brute! I want to handle Master's sexual desires!"
She licks all over, insisting that cleaning fellatio is only natural. However... she does her work perfectly, and elsewhere, her lewdness is completely invisible. When I praised her for that, she puffed out her large chest and said, "Of course!"
"Other men are nothing but a motley crowd. Besides, for the sake of the Madam who has expectations of me, I will work hard to exceed those expectations!"
It was then that word arrived that His Majesty the Emperor had collapsed.
"Shivans-kun! We're going to the palace!"
Klaus called out to me.
When we immediately headed to the palace, the court physicians were gathered and consulting with each other.
"Have you figured out what the illness is!?"
The court physicians flinched at Klaus's shout.
"You don't know!? You quacks! Out of my way!"
"K-Klaus-sama... who is that boy?"
"A great doctor!"
When a scoffing, derisive laugh arose, Klaus's anger became apparent.
"You lot who scoffed at this boy. Once the results are known, you'd better wash your necks and wait."
I took His Majesty's pulse and examined him with Appraisal.
"This is...! It's poison. It seems to be lead. It must have been mixed into something."
Immediately, I used Instant Movement to extract only the lead from His Majesty's body, and when I cast High Heal, his complexion gradually began to return. Then, when I investigated what it had been in, I found it dissolved in trace amounts in the alcohol he was drinking.
"This alcohol? Who brought it?"
At my question, the Grand Chamberlain stepped forward.
"I believe it was a gift from the eldest son of the Marquis Kaoz household. However, the other day, Marquis Kaoz-sama also drank the same alcohol."
The Grand Chamberlain nodded at Klaus's question asking if he was certain.
"So he tried to erase his father along with him, is that it? Why would he need to do such a thing?"
I wouldn't know even if asked, but there is a way to confirm.
"If we recommend this alcohol to the eldest son and he drinks it, the mastermind is someone else. If he panics and refuses, then that means he himself is the culprit, correct?"
"However... when would we make him drink it? I see! At the party this weekend!"
When I said that was correct, he nodded deeply. To preserve evidence, Klaus decided to take that alcohol home with him.
And as we were leaving, he spat out a parting shot: "You quacks! Don't think your heads are safe. It is thanks to this boy that His Majesty is unharmed. Had you not scoffed, your lives would have been spared. Say your farewells to your wives!"
The court physicians stood there, pale as ghosts.
When he ordered the guards, "What are you doing? These wretches nearly let His Majesty die. They are worthless doctors with nothing but pride! A punishment must be given for insulting a great doctor! Seize them and cut off their heads!", the court physicians wept, screamed, and begged for their lives.
When I wondered if he would really kill them, he said he planned to banish them.
"Those fellows have been court physicians for generations through heredity. It's not like that potion the other day, but they know nothing of the world outside the castle. I'll give them a good lesson."
In other words, their knowledge hasn't been updated at all. If that's the case, they have no one to blame but themselves for losing their positions.
It seems there is no one monitoring His Majesty. For the time being, we've passed the worst of it, but when Klaus ordered the Grand Chamberlain, "This was an assassination attempt. Be extremely careful," he bowed his head with sharp eyes and said, "Please leave it to me."
After continuing a life of holding Tima in the morning and afternoon, and holding Aqua at night for a whole week, the day of the party finally arrived.
"I'm bringing Tima too. If there's an opening, I'll take her!"
She flipped up her skirt and was delighted, saying, "Just seeing Master's face makes my lewd pussy constantly squelch and weep! Well then, I'll wear string panties! Yay! I get to go to the party!"
The main guests at today's party were my parents. There were people who tried to cozy up, people who openly despised them saying, "Upstarts!", and people who said, "A barbarian as a Baron? The Empire's dignity has fallen."
"Looks like about eight hostile parties."
Aristo was analyzing it coolly, but perhaps he thought I didn't care at all? He spoke to me with a relieved expression.
"After all, they are people who cling to status because they have nothing of their own. I don't care how many become my enemies."
Chuckling, he slapped my shoulder repeatedly, saying, "That's so like you, Shivans." Emilia, being tall and slenderly beautiful, was extremely popular with everyone from old men to young men.
When she finally escaped, she complained.
"Even though your girlfriend was in trouble, you had no intention of helping?"
"Did you really need help against small fry like that, Emi-nee?"
She immediately took the bait.
"W-Well, I didn't need your help against guys like that!"
"As expected of Emi-nee. That's what I thought!"
Then, three youngsters, a mix of boys and girls, arrived.
"I am Indigo Blue, from the northeast, next to your territory. I'm the 13-year-old son of a quasi-knight. Pleased to meet you!"
Next, a girl said "It's my turn," and introduced herself.
"I'm Limone Yellow, from east of your territory! I'm the 13-year-old daughter of a quasi-knight! I'm aiming for the Imperial Academy! You two are as well, right?"
The last boy chuckled and introduced himself.
"Did you think Limone was a girl? I always thought Limone was a boy. The lady next to you is beautiful! I'm Frank Red, a quasi-knight's son from the southeast. We're all 13, so we're all classmates!"
Emilia was happy to be called beautiful, but replied a little sullenly, "I'm 14."
Just as I was wondering if we needed to introduce ourselves, it seems we are more famous than we thought. The boy who introduced himself as Indigo was staring intently at me.
"What is it, Indigo-kun?"
"Well, I was just thinking you're far more beautiful than Limone!"
Frank nodded in agreement.
"You guys have it good! Good looks too! On top of that, Aristo-sama is the heir to a Grand Duke family, right? And Shivans-kun, I've heard rumors you're accomplished in both literary and military arts! I definitely want to be friends!"
Then Limone stepped forward.
"You can just ignore these idiots with their ulterior motives showing! I want to have a match with you sometime! You're strong, right!?"
"Well, not really. I'm sure you're stronger. Yep! I'll take the loss."
As I completely ignored them, Aristo looked happy.
"As expected of Shivans!"
"Is that... a compliment?"
Then the music started and the dancing began, and a battle over Aristo broke out among the women. Casually, even Emilia was pulled away by men, and the Junk Trio went to her rescue.
I quietly slipped away and pulled Tima close.
"In a place like this... Aah! But I'm going to come right away!"
"You say 'in a place like this,' but aren't you already squelching?"
"Because... it's a pussy exclusively for Master! I love you!"
She came over and over, stifling her voice as she cried out, "I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming!"
"Please... cum inside! Shoot your hot semen deep inside!"
Saying she was happy, she performed cleaning fellatio for me.
As the dancing was reaching its climax, I invited Emilia to dance a waltz, and a cheer of "Ooh!" arose. The audience seemed captivated by our dance.
Then, I heard an announcement: Learned 'Charm'.
When Emilia, in high spirits, and Aristo, who had been dragged around by various people, regrouped, the conversation turned to the Junk Trio.
"Hey. So the territories of those three's families are in a mountainous region?"
I don't know the details that well either.
I shared the knowledge that the traveling merchant Marc had taught me. 90% of the three families' territories are surrounded by mountains, and only Limone's place in the middle has anything resembling a proper road.
There is a road connecting our territory and the Margrave's territory, but it's apparently hard to call it decent.
"Moreover, I hear there are monster nests and many dangerous places near the border with the Margrave's territory."
"I want to go on an adventure with the three of them sometime! I went into the mountains with Teacher and even fought a goblin!"
Aristo said innocently, but he seemed to have completely come to respect Emilia as his teacher. The grandson of a Grand Duke as an adventurer? I thought that was an impossible game, but Aristo was already bragging that he could ride a bicycle.
"More importantly, Aristo-sama. If you enter the Imperial Academy, those three will likely come on strong as friends, you know?"
"Ugh... Limone aside... I'll leave the other two to you, Shivans. You're the only friend I need!"
And so, the party was reaching its climax.
Meanwhile, His Majesty, who had recovered, and Klaus served that alcohol to Marquis Kaoz, who gulped it down. The lead poison had already been removed.
"Ooh! This alcohol tastes similar to my hometown's!"
"That's right. It was a gift from your son, after all!"
(As I thought, this man seems to know nothing...)
Just as Klaus was convinced, the son of Marquis Kaoz appeared there.
"Ivan! You come too! Tonight, we throw formality to the wind!"
When Kaoz beckoned him over and tried to offer him a drink, Ivan looked startled and panicked.
"N-No... rather than drinking... not the hometown alcohol... well... I was thinking I'd like to drink something else..."
"What are you saying! We are before His Majesty!"
His father Kaoz got angry, but Ivan fled. His Majesty and Klaus had obtained confirmation. Only Kaoz, who still knew nothing, was grumbling complaints.
His Majesty and Klaus looked at each other and nodded. The two had been devising a plan since before the party. And their opinions aligned. The culprit was likely Ivan alone!
And they were convinced by this incident.
"Even if we dispose of that one man, we will remain in the dark. We have no evidence to capture him and make him talk. Let him run free for a while and investigate the background and the nobles cooperating with him. Understood, Klaus?"
Nodding deeply, Klaus had been organizing the Shadow Corps. If possible, he wanted them to find evidence and bring it back. And the two thought that if His Majesty did not die, they would undoubtedly try another method.
Just as the party was reaching its climax, they led the drunken Kaoz out, and His Majesty and Klaus returned looking as if nothing had happened.
The party concluded without incident.
We returned to Klaus's mansion.
We carried Windam, who was dead drunk, to his room, and Aqua entered the room with him. In reality, Aqua returned to her own room via Instant Movement and continued to be held by me until nearly dawn.
The Next Morning
Windam awoke feeling a sense of fatigue that told him he had done it so much his crotch was empty.
"Yesterday... was intense, wasn't it...!"
Semen was leaking from the crotch of his wife Aqua, who smiled bewitchingly. When they changed clothes and headed to breakfast, everyone was already seated.
Emilia, who was concerned about my mother Leen, asking if she was alright after yesterday's party, already looked like a daughter-in-law and mother-in-law.
"The Madam is pregnant, after all. Please don't overdo it."
Then, when Aqua said, "I might be having a third child too," everyone looked at Windam's face. As Windam whistled and looked away, Aristo asked with a dubious expression, "Is that true, Father?"
"Aristo-chan, are you, like Shivans-chan, unable to separate from your Mama's breasts?"
At Leen's airheaded remark, Father Butler burst out laughing, "Is that so, Shivans? You're still such a child too! Ahahaha!"
To meet with an accident in a place like this...
"That was before I was old enough to remember. I have no memory of it."
Just as I was thinking why I had to suffer such an injury from the morning, Aristo also became heated and retorted, "M-Me too! It's not like that! I'm not a mama's boy! I'm already an adult!"
"Well, never mind. According to today's schedule, Butler and his family are returning home. However, I would like Shivans-kun to come back once more. Knowing Butler, he's going to dump all the matters of the new territory onto Shivans-kun anyway, isn't he?"
At Klaus's words, Emilia pressed him, "Is that true?"
"Excellency... I've also become a Baron, you know... so, well, I have many other things I should be doing..."
My father made a flustered excuse, but Klaus ignored him and spoke to me.
"Regarding that matter. There is no doubt it was the son's doing. But we don't know the background or any collaborators. Including the matters of the new territory, please use your teleportation technique and come back!"
When I replied that I understood, Aqua smiled happily.
"Ah. That reminds me, Shivans. Mario from the Adventurer Guild said he wanted to meet you and Teacher. Shall the three of us go after this?"
When we immediately went there, the Guild Master appeared.
When we went to a separate room, he handed over silver plates.
"You two will be promoted to B-Rank in no time anyway. I thought it would be unbearable for the examiners to get injured each time. So I'll give these to you in advance."
Aristo, seeing that, had an envious look on his face.
"Honestly, I think A-Rank would be fine too. But if that happens, you'd start receiving requests from the nation, like your parents, and you wouldn't be able to refuse. So I kept it at B-Rank."
"I am grateful for your consideration."
Probably, there will be requests not only from the nation but also from nobles. If there are nobles with malicious intent, they could lure us out and assassinate us.
We gave our thanks and returned to the mansion. Klaus and Butler were having a discussion so intense it almost looked like a quarrel.
"Listen, Butler. You are now a Baron, and your land is more than double. You must also maintain soldiers. You can't just get by with retainers like before, you know?"
"Even you, Excellency, don't think I'm just a muscle-brained idiot, do you? I'll properly contact my old comrades from my mercenary days and gather reliable soldiers!"
It was unexpected, but he had been thinking properly. Apparently, right after his promotion in rank, he went to see his comrades, gave them money, and instructed them to gather people.
Then, a haggard Windam and a glowing Aqua appeared. Windam clung to me.
"Please. Make me a health drink, quickly!"
"Father. You're drinking too much, aren't you? Go easy on the alcohol..."
When Aristo spoke to him with concern, Windam said, "Even though you're a child," but looked happy.
"Aristo is already 13, right? When I was 10, I used to pilfer money from Father and Mother and frequent brothels and the places of women around there. You've grown up to be a serious, good kid!"
Then, the Madam delivered a fierce kick.
"You idiot son! Don't go proudly talking about your dark past! I'm sorry, Aqua. This idiot must be a constant source of trouble, right?"
"No, Mother-in-law. I have a generous heart, you know? Right, dear!"
I think she's talking about her husband who doesn't notice her affair with me, but I'll naturally pretend not to know.
Then, Aristo came to ask me secretly.
"Hey, Shivans? What's a brothel?"
"I wouldn't know either."
"Wow! There are things even Shivans doesn't know!"
The Madam watched our conversation with a gentle expression.
Then Klaus asked me.
"Since when have you been able to use the teleportation technique?"
"Just recently. It might be the effect of becoming an adventurer and my level rising."
However... when I started to say that, they were probably intrigued.
Everyone stared intently.
"However? What is it?"
"There are conditions for activating it."
When I said that I must be in contact with the person, and that the scenery in my memory must be vivid, Klaus asked, "So it's no good if the conditions aren't met?"
"That's right. Even if I've seen a place, it's no good if my memory is hazy. I nearly died once when I tried. I only use it for places I've properly and clearly memorized."
My, how scary, the Madam exclaimed.
"Then, what about teleporting into that room over there?"
Windam was probably asking, thinking it could be used for assassination.
"Since I can see it now, the area in front of the room is possible, but inside is impossible. You might think I've entered it once, but I haven't memorized it."
Don't make a disappointed face, Windam. It's completely obvious you're thinking of dangerous things.
So, I informed only Windam and Klaus.
"You might think it can be used for reconnaissance or assassination, but it's also no good if the scenery I arrive at differs from my memory. For example, if my memory is of a bright room, but now it's a dimly lit room and hard to see, there's a high possibility I could be flung beyond space-time. There may be times you wish to use it, but it's quite inconvenient."
I can't have it used as a convenient taxi service. If I don't hint at the danger of death, they'd likely ask right away. So I gave them a warning.
"I see. So even though it seems convenient, it has various restrictions."
Klaus... you were thinking of using it casually after all. After noon passed, as we were about to hold hands and return, Butler blurted out, "Ah! The carriage and horses..."
"Don't be stingy, Butler! I'll buy them off you for that much!"
"We're still very poor, you know, Excellency?"
He was handed one large gold coin and became elated.
"I shall come again tomorrow morning!"
"Indeed. I'll be waiting! We're going to the palace tomorrow, after all!"
What could it be? A celebration for His Majesty's recovery? I don't really know, but we returned to our territory.
My father immediately gathered Gale and the others to discuss the barony, and my mother took care of the girls. Emilia was looking after the two Silver Wolves. I shut myself in the basement laboratory.
That Night
"W-Wait, Shivans... let me rest a bit... I'm going to come so much I'll die!"
"What are you saying, Emi-nee? You're the one who said you wanted sex so lewd it drives you crazy, aren't you, Emi-nee! You said you wouldn't let me sleep tonight, right?"
Having turned into a beast, I made Emilia scream until late at night.
