Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Members of the New Territory
The next day
When I headed to the Adventurer Guild in the morning with Passo, he asked with a laugh, "Do you think that drunkard will come? Won't he run away?"
"Fatso! Who's gonna run away?"
"Fufufu. Don't go making excuses when you lose again!"
While I was making a request to Mario-san, the two of them seemed about to start a fight. Then, one adventurer stepped between them.
"Oi! You're Regias, right? You were alive? I thought your arm tendons were cut and you were dead. Is Yaris-chan doing well?"
An adventurer past thirty with a rugged face was talking to the old man who had been called a drunkard by Passo.
"I wondered who it was, it's just Vel. I came here today to break the nose of that cheeky brat over there!"
"Now that you mention it, you hadn't even given your name, had you, Regias-san? I'm called Shivans and I'm 13 years old. It'd be embarrassing to lose to a 13-year-old kid, right? You wouldn't be able to walk around town, would you?"
He took my provocation beautifully.
We borrowed the guild's training ground and faced each other with wooden swords.
"Have you sobered up yet?"
"Shut up! My arm moves! I've sobered up. With this, I'll beat you!"
He charged with a roar, but when I nimbly dodged, he sprawled on the ground.
"You can cross swords with the Knight Commander at that level? You shouldn't tell lies."
After exchanging a few blows, Regias quickly started to run out of breath.
"Already exhausted? This isn't even worth the effort."
"Shut up! The match starts now!"
When he was overwhelmed by me not just in swordsmanship but also in strength, he shed tears of frustration.
"Regias! What's wrong! You're not this weak!"
"Shivans-dono! Please finish him off!"
There were two spectators. The adventurer named Vel and Passo were cheering.
Then, an arrow filled with killing intent flew in, but I caught it and stopped it. The target wasn't me, but Regias.
"Yaris..."
"How pathetic. Losing even to a child! What Knight Commander!"
This girl seems to have high abilities too. For the time being, since I won, we decided to borrow a separate room and talk. There, introductions were made.
Regias, 34 years old. Has one daughter, Yaris.
Yaris, 16 years old. Works as a hunter and looks after neighborhood orphans.
Vel, 32 years old. A colleague who fought alongside Regias.
Passo, 25 years old. Lolishota.
"Shivans-dono... my treatment..."
"I am Shivans O'Brien. Son of Baron Butler."
The four stirred at hearing he was the son of the Lightning-fast Butler.
"Tch! You should've said so from the start! No wonder you're strong! I feel like I've been tricked!"
Regias said that, so I got a little annoyed.
"Do you seriously think I won because of my bloodline? Since childhood, I was trained by that muscle-brained shitty old man to the point I thought I'd die many times, unable to even run away, and I made efforts while covered in wounds! What do you understand! You, a person who ran away into alcohol and didn't even make an effort!"
At my intensity, all four were terrified and couldn't speak.
I heard a mental announcement that I had learned 'Intimidation' and 'Fear'. Thanks to that tensionless announcement, I calmed down.
"Your concentration to stop an arrow I shot seriously was certainly amazing."
"If I hadn't stopped it, it would have hit Regias-san, you know?"
"Of course I intended to hit him. Stopping that is worthy of respect!"
Saying that, Yaris stood up, said "You really worked hard! Good job!" and hugged me. Her chest isn't that big, but she's probably braless. It's squishy and feels good.
"Compared to that, shitty old man! You're nothing but excuses! Learn a little from this kid!"
"Yaris... sorry... but you... weren't you seriously trying to kill me?"
"Yes! Because, there's no point in you living, right!"
When she admitted it so readily, Vel and Passo were completely taken aback.
So then, I spread out a map of the land granted by His Majesty this time and showed them.
"I want to transform this place into a land where everyone can live richly and comfortably!"
"Eh? You're a noble, right? That's different from us!"
Yaris said with dissatisfaction, so I explained from my upbringing.
"The land where I was born was a barren place."
One quarter was desert, one quarter was land covered in volcanic ash, one quarter was marshland, and only one quarter was decent land. The residents were 80 serfs and 20 battle slaves. When I said I grew up with my parents and two squires, everyone was surprised.
"Until I was eight, I was raised morning and night on thin, tasteless scrap vegetable soup, and even though it was a knight title, it was a shabby mansion only slightly better than a house in the slums. Everyone will know this if they go to the territory."
The four were even more surprised at those words.
"So, I don't care about things like noble or commoner. Even my current lover was originally the child of a serf. I had no other friends either. So, in a good way, I think the environment was good. Because I lived a life not very noble-like."
So, I talked about how I gained the wisdom to live in the great outdoors, and even in a harsh environment by noble standards, I became able to endure it.
"I think the land this time is also desolate and the people living there can't hold any hope. But it can be changed! If everyone combines their strength! Everyone's abilities are incredibly high! Passo-san is excellent as an Internal Affairs Officer, so I invited him!"
Then Yaris, still hugging me, said, "This little squirt?"
"How rude. Setting aside my face and physique! My brain is sharp! More importantly, other people! Are they necessary, Shivans-dono? Besides, this Vel person and that rude brat Yaris, we just met them, right?"
You admit your face and physique are that of a little squirt, Passo? Is that okay?
"Regias's latent potential is high. Vel-san seems suited for espionage or covert operations, and Yaris-san, though a woman, seems suited as a commander."
"Hee... Young master, you can tell my ability? Amazing!"
"To see through me despite being so young! As expected!"
"I don't care, but you... get away from Shivans-dono!"
"No way... jealous? No matter how cute I am..."
When Passo muttered, "Even though you're an ugly old hag," it turned into a huge fight with "What did you say! Where am I an old hag! You little squirt!"
"Stop it. Young master, what should we do? Will Vel and Yaris also become retainers?"
Regias asked calmly.
"Yeah!"
"Fine by me."
Passo made a face that said he had a headache, but we proceeded with future plans. If everyone said they would become my retainers, I'd drop the formal speech and talk.
"Right now, among people who are smoldering with dissatisfaction, we'll need many who want to become our soldiers or farmers. Regias, in the future, serve as my Knight Commander and gather squires. Vel, take charge of intelligence and security and gather subordinates. Yaris, for now, recruit residents. Passo, I want you to serve as steward and Internal Affairs Officer. If you need money, get it from Passo."
When I handed five gold coins to Passo, the three swarmed him saying, "Well then, right away!"
"You lot! Properly tell me what you'll use it for! Got it? I won't let you waste money! Moving expenses, how much you spent gathering people. If there's no report, I won't hand over any more!"
Even if a bridge is built, the road to the central area will take about one month, so there's time. From there, I held detailed meetings with the four.
"Hey, Shivans-sama? Is it okay to bring orphans and such too?"
"It's fine, but we'll need people to look after them and buildings too, right?"
We came up with concrete measures and addressed problems one by one.
"I'll only be here for about two more days. Where should we hold meetings and consultations?"
"Let's see. How about my house? It's reasonably spacious, and I live alone."
When it was decided to hold meetings at Passo's house, Yaris spoke up, "Then let's move into Passo's house right now! Everyone would be happy to live with a beauty like me, right! Please take care of the orphans too!"
"Oi, no way! Damn it... she's not listening..."
Passo said his house was small, but it was sufficiently spacious.
"With this, we could probably call about 50 people, huh?"
"What are you saying on your own, Vel? You planning to live here too?"
"Of course! We're retainers from now on, right?"
"Where do you find such self-important retainers!"
In high spirits, I returned to Klaus's mansion and held Tima.
"Master! You're in a good mood today!"
"Something good happened! I got retainers."
She was happy together with me.
As I was changing clothes and relaxing, a 30-year-old veteran maid named Noah said, "I have a consultation," so I listened in a separate room. "I'd like to request shaving," she said, looking embarrassed.
"That's fine. At this hour, no one should be using the bath."
When she tried doing it herself a little, she got razor burn and her skin stung. So when I was thinking of switching to hair removal cream, she made a sad face.
"What's wrong?"
Noah started talking about something close to grumbling. According to her, she married late at 24.
Her husband is a soldier in the national army, one year older. At the beginning of their marriage, they had a nighttime life, but recently it's about two or three times a year. She said she likes children and wanted them, but couldn't have any and had given up.
"I don't know which of us has the problem. Either way, I'm an auntie with a small chest. My husband probably doesn't want to hold me either. So, it seems he goes to brothels, but..."
As far as I could tell with Appraisal, there seemed to be no problem with her body.
"If forced to say, the problem might be with your husband. For example, the possibility that his sperm is thin. In that case, how about targeting days when it's easier to conceive?"
"Thinking that, I tried hard wearing sexy underwear too! Thinking that if I shaved like this, he might look my way. A senior maid also said, 'My husband got excited.' But, I'm not even pretty..."
Having completely lost confidence, she was crying.
"Th-that's not true at all. Noah-san, you're beautiful!"
"Shivans-sama, do you feel like holding me? You don't, right!"
So after hair removal, I did manual stimulation.
When I found and played with her feel-good spots, her voice started to come out.
"L-let's go over here!"
Surprisingly, the bath had a separate room.
Apparently, long ago, Klaus and Windam used it when they got lustful.
(As expected! Rich people are really amazing!)
"It's okay if voices come out here. No one has used it recently, but I clean it every day. I've been sexually frustrated lately. Also, I might be on the louder side with those voices."
When I made her cum thoroughly with manual stimulation, she said, "I'm not very good, but..." and performed fellatio. When we were both fully ready, I slowly inserted.
"Yan... when you sink it in like you're savoring my pussy... I get excited! I feel it so much... it feels good! Aah! Aaan!"
"Did you cum?"
"Yes... it's my first time cumming inside... it's really good!"
I made her climax many times, and when I stimulated her portio, she squirted and her convulsions wouldn't stop.
"No! I'm still cumming! I've been cumming nonstop, I feel like I'm going crazy!"
When I told her I was about to cum, she said in my ear, "It's okay to cum inside. That way I can cum together with you!"
I wondered if she'd resist cleaning fellatio, but she did it for me.
"Was it okay to cum inside?"
"Ufufu. You already did, right? It's fine if you hold me with the feeling of holding a prostitute! I'll also keep the feeling of being held by a male prostitute! Don't worry about it!"
If that's the case, let's go at it hard without holding back!
I enjoyed the remaining hour in various positions.
"Again... if you have time, please hold me!"
Saying that, she changed clothes and left.
During dinner and during massage, Klaus didn't touch on the topic of Passo at all.
(There must be some circumstances. I won't ask until Klaus brings it up.)
After that, my life was holding Aqua and returning to my room the next morning.
The next morning
It was Noah who came to wake me up.
When I reached my hand inside her skirt, she didn't resist but kept her crotch tightly closed.
"Did you masturbate yesterday?"
"I-I don't know..."
Even as she was being touched, when I shifted her panties aside, she was moistly wet. And then, little by little, it started making wet sounds.
"Did you?"
"I-I did... three times... because it was my first time cumming..."
She confessed that she had been staying overnight at the mansion yesterday, and so others wouldn't hear, she did it in the toilet, stifling her voice.
When I showed her my cock, she sucked on it frantically. And when it got big, she immediately straddled me in cowgirl position and started shaking her hips on her own.
"I know that I've been talked about behind my back, saying I'm always quiet, uninteresting, and my only merit is being serious. I know my husband also called me a gloomy woman. So I avoided men and was bad with lewd talk too. But actually, I was interested!"
She took off her top herself, guided my hand to her chest, and made me fondle her. When she got emotional, she leaned over me, stuck out her tongue on her own, and begged, "Kiss me."
"I came a lot yesterday too! Just like that, inside... cum inside!"
Making squelching wet sounds, she slammed her hips violently and reached a grand climax.
"Really... I'm a married woman... and yet, you've turned me into this kind of woman..."
Saying that, when she finished cleaning fellatio, she straightened herself up and left with a smile, announcing, "Breakfast is already prepared."
After breakfast
When I went to Passo's house, it had become a big deal.
"I heard you lived alone...?"
"I want to cry already! It's you, Yaris! If you're even a scrap of a woman, at least do cleaning, laundry, and cooking! Can't you even do that? I'm letting you live here!"
Then, Yaris also briskly gave orders, just like a commander.
"You. That's trash, right? Treasure? I don't know! Either keep it or throw it away, pick one! You woman over there, clean! This is a house that the little squirt kept dirty! You man over there, help with the move! Kids, burn the trash!"
(Not bad at all!)
As I was watching, thinking that, Regias and Vel weren't there. Apparently, since last night, they had gone out to search for trustworthy companions with strong skills and wouldn't be back for a while.
After that, I took Passo and went to the Master Craftsman of construction to work out the details. When we returned to Passo's house, the rooms had been properly allocated and everything was neat and tidy. Using the ingredients and seasonings I had prepared, the women were also cooking.
"Have you reconsidered, little squirt! It means Shivans-sama had a good eye!"
"O-oh! You can do it if you try!"
I returned to Klaus's mansion, and while looking after the Quack Doctor Trio, I held Tima, and after that, continued with Noah.
Today as well, Klaus said nothing, and the day ended with me holding Aqua.
The next morning
I went to Passo's house and asked if he had cut ties with Klaus.
"I'm a lazy bum, and not very clever. I'm disliked by the people of that house. So this time, I'm going to show them that my life isn't a rotten one!"
Yaris, who was listening, applauded.
"I also had someone I liked a little. When my father was active, we were close. From around the time my father couldn't stand on the battlefield anymore, he suddenly became cold. I'll show that guy! I'll make him get on his hands and knees in dogeza, regretting that he left with my mother, not me, making fools of us!"
It seems everyone has something they hold deep in their hearts.
That night
I talked a lot with Aqua.
She didn't seem to know much about Passo.
"Come to think of it, recently, even when Shivans comes, Aristo hasn't been clinging to you, right?"
Now that she mentioned it, that's true. I hadn't really noticed.
Every morning, as soon as he changes clothes, he goes to the Adventurer Guild, receives requests to gather herbs, and sometimes, accompanied by Klaus, Marino, the Quack Doctor Trio, and guards, he climbs the mountain and makes potions himself. He also seems to be collecting strange mushrooms and trying to make medicine by comparing them with the book I made.
"I'm sure he wants to catch up to you, even a little."
He seems to be working hard to accumulate various knowledge and experiences. Also, the reason he goes to bed early at night is apparently because Emilia told him, "A sleeping child grows," so he sleeps plenty and drinks milk every day.
"And also! My period, which was supposed to come around after the party, is late! My second child with Shivans! I might be pregnant!"
Aqua has completely become my woman.
"You'll be busy next year, right? Properly think about a third child, okay?"
"We don't even know about the second one yet?"
I'm sure it's fine! She said with a laugh, absolutely certain it had happened. However, she seemed lonely that I was going home tomorrow.
"Hold me tight until morning! I want to sleep in Shivans's arms!"
As usual, in the morning, I returned to my own room using Instant Movement.
Today, it was good I came back a little early. Because Noah came.
"I heard you're going back today... I couldn't hold back..."
Saying that as she took off her clothes, she immediately became completely naked.
"I've kept calling myself a prostitute, but now I came wanting to be fallen from a married woman into a woman. Please hold me! Even though I was just a gloomy and serious woman, I'd never even sucked my husband's cock! Now, I've become a terribly lewd woman who happily holds Shivans-sama's cock in my mouth and even shows you my masturbation..."
Making sucking sounds, she wet her fingers with saliva, then put her fingers into her pussy, making squelching sounds.
I asked a question to Noah, who was trying to straddle me.
"My husband's cock or my cock. Which do you like better?"
Without answering, she straddled me and deeply sank her hips.
"You ask even though you know? I can't cum with my husband's cock! It has to be Shivans-sama's cock! I love it! My pussy that's become lewd aches wanting this cock! Aah! Making me say such things, are you going to make me even more obscene? I'm going to cum right away!"
She clung tightly to me, shedding tears of joy as she climaxed.
"My body is rejoicing this much with something other than my husband! I'm feeling it and cumming so much I could cry! I'm cumming right away! Cumming so much! I love Shivans-sama so much I even allow you to cum inside! It feels good! Aah! Cummingcummingcumming!"
When she realized I was about to cum, she hugged me tight and said, "We'll cum together! Watch! The face of a woman who's become a lewd female having an orgasm!" and kissed me.
"Surely now... my womb is being fertilized!"
She gripped tightly and squeezed her vagina.
"Since you've made me into a bad prostitute! Make me fall as long as time permits! Make me a woman! For these three days, my husband's face never comes to mind. Even when sleeping, only Shivans-sama! Even masturbation, only Shivans-sama! Having lewd sex like this is also only with Shivans-sama!"
When I held her as long as time permitted, she asked, "Was my erotic pussy good?"
"It was incredibly erotic and good!"
"Ufu♡ A lewd married woman prostitute my husband doesn't know♡ A body thoroughly known by Shivans-sama♡"
Saying that, she kissed me, changed clothes, and left.
When I went to the Master Craftsman's place, he said, "Right now, we're building a road to His Majesty the Emperor's territory."
The road width is enough for four carriages. The land has already been secured, so he told me they would work hard to reach a point where they can exit at the bridge location in one month.
"Then, let's meet in one month!"
I returned to Klaus's mansion and said my farewells to everyone. Tima beckoned me from behind a pillar, so thinking it was a secret talk, I approached.
"I'm... late, but if it happens, I'll give birth, okay?"
"Of course! I'm counting on a healthy child."
"If you want me during pregnancy, bear with it using my mouth and butt, okay!"
She was so cute that when I fondled her breasts, she said, "Yan! You're making me want to do it!" so I took her to a separate room and ravished her from behind.
"Be sweet to me again!"
She waved her hand as she said that.
Finally, when Klaus called me, it was about Passo.
"I had no expectations for that guy. However, somewhere in my heart, I am hoping that you will make him stand back up, just like Aristo!"
"Place your expectations on Passo. Not on me, Excellency. I'm sure he will accomplish it!"
Saying that, he smiled warmly and we shook hands.
