“Ah… ahh…”
Biner, the half-dragon, half-human girl, was lost in ecstasy, her eyes vacant. Her mouth opened and closed rhythmically, a string of lustful saliva dripping from it.
From among the half-dragon, half-human girls, I withdrew myself.
A cloudy white liquid gushed from the girl’s most intimate part.
Well, if Biner has reached her climax, then the “requirement” is met—
I stood up and addressed Lombardia.
“Lombardia, it’s time for **Enslavement**.”
“Here it comes, my master.”
As the Holy Axe Lombardia emitted a golden radiance, a similar light enveloped Biner’s neck, like a collar.
“Wh-what are you—Aaaahhhhhhh!”
Biner’s entire body was engulfed in a faint golden light.
The girl arched her body like a bow, screaming, and her entire body convulsed.
“Ag… ah… aah…”
Saliva dripped from her mouth, and below, she involuntarily released herself.
The steaming liquid spread from Biner’s lower abdomen onto the ground.
“…Something amazing is happening. Lombardia, is this really okay?”
“Hmm, well, it can’t be helped. I am trying to dominate this girl with my power. This is not a light intervention. It’s likely her entire body and mind are saturated with pleasure currents temporarily. There should be no danger to her life or spirit, so rest assured.”
While I was having this telepathic conversation with Lombardia, Biner regained consciousness.
A golden collar, which hadn’t been there before, was now around the girl’s neck.
“Haa… haa… M-Mr. Douglas… What was that just now…? My body… it felt like it was… being dominated by something…”
“Ah. That’s the effect of the **Enslavement** skill. With this, Biner is now an absolute slave to my commands.”
Lombardia’s skill—**Enslavement**.
It’s a skill with no regard for ethics, used to make the person I’ve brought to climax into someone who obeys my commands absolutely.
When I first gained the ability to use this skill, I thought I’d never use something like this, but I’ve finally used it.
Honestly, you never know what life will throw at you.
“S-slave…? I… I’m Mr. Douglas’s… slave…?”
“Yes. That said, I won’t give you reckless orders. For now, I have only one command for Biner—’Do not kill humans for any purpose other than self-defense.'”
As I spoke the words, infusing them with my “will to command,” Biner’s collar glowed, and the light spread throughout her body.
Biner sat up, looking at her body with a puzzled expression.
“Um… is this it…? I’m now dominated by Mr. Douglas’s orders…? Um, what happens if I try to kill someone for a purpose other than self-defense, thus breaking the order?”
“Apparently, you get a tremendous electric shock throughout your body.”
“F-feh, an electric shock…!? Is that electric shock the kind that makes your whole body feel good like just now!?”
“No, I don’t think it’s like that.”
If that were the case, you might end up breaking orders constantly and becoming an addiction-seeking electric shock victim.
Regardless, the physical encounter with Biner is over.
Next—
“By the way, Biner, you said something before the fight, didn’t you? That handing Marukt over to the Royal Knights was a bad idea or something.”
“Ah… that’s right, we were talking about that.”
Biner stood up and looked in a certain direction.
It was the ruined temple building where Biner had been standing initially.
Though parts of it were crumbling, the stone exterior of the temple was adorned with dragon motifs everywhere.
“Mr. Douglas, do you know what kind of religion this temple is associated with?”
As Biner asked, I recalled the information from my common knowledge as an adventurer.
“Ah… let me see… I believe it was the ‘Dragon God Religion’? I heard that most countries have declared it a heresy because many of its followers engage in destructive activities.”
—The Dragon God Religion.
It was a religion that believed dragons, beings of immense power, should be the rulers of this world. Its followers believed the current world, where humans have expanded their influence the most, was wrong, and they continued to commit acts of destruction sporadically across various regions.
Biner nodded at my reply.
“Yes, it would be considered a heretical religion in human nations. However, adherents of the Dragon God Religion still lurk throughout human society. For example—in the very heart of the Royal Capital of the Forest Kingdom Lacris.”
“…Seriously?”
Dragon God Religion followers in the heart of the Royal Capital…?
Does that mean terrorists plotting to overthrow humanity’s nations have infiltrated the King’s close associates or someone similar?
That sounds like a seriously dangerous situation…
However, Biner nodded again, without mercy.
“Seriously. And the beings that Dragon God Religion followers revere as rulers of this world include us Dragon people. If they hear that Marukt-chan has been arrested and imprisoned, how will that person react?”
“That’s troubling… By any chance, do you know that person’s name, Biner?”
“Yes. I believe his name was Augusto. He was a Minister at the Royal Castle of Lacris.”
That name sounds familiar.
The minister who was present during my audience with the King and was so hostile towards me and Chloe.
“…I see. In that case, Marukt might be escaped after all. —Well, let’s call it a stroke of luck. The dangerous item is in our possession.”
“Hm…? What do you mean?”
“This is what I mean.”
I took out a cloth bag from my pocket.
It was a magic cloth bag, purchased at the same clothing store where I bought the Santa costume, said to connect to another dimension.
From it, I pulled out a spear and showed it to Biner.
“That’s…! Marukt-chan’s Dragon God Spear!?”
“Yep. It was a good thing I recovered this.”
“I see, indeed… If the Dragon God Artifact is stolen, Marukt-chan would just be a Dragon person… While stronger than an ordinary human, she’d lose her extraordinary strength, and her life wouldn’t be tied to the Dragon God Artifact anymore…”
Biner brought her hand to her mouth and nodded with a serious expression.
Just then, Miina, who had been listening, came toddling over.
Miina tugged at the hem of my clothes.
“Nya nya, Douglas. Hearing what you just said, Miina thought nya.”
“Hm, it is?”
As I asked, Miina pointed at Biner and said innocently,
“Couldn’t you have just taken her bow instead of **enslaving** Biner nya?”
” “Ah…!” ”
My voice and Biner’s overlapped.
I-I have to admit…
Meanwhile, Seraphina was frantically trying to make an excuse in my place.
“Wh-what is this useless cat saying! There’s no way Lord Douglas would make such a simple mistake! There must have been some profound reason behind it!? —R-right, Lord Douglas…!?”
Seraphina turned her innocent eyes towards me.
Eyes that said, “I trust you.”
But even with such eyes directed at me, I had no profound reason behind this matter; it was unequivocally a simple mistake.
As I cautiously glanced at Biner—
“Jeez…”
Her ice-blue eyes were looking at me with a sharp, unimpressed glare.
—By the way, I believe there are several important principles for humans.
One of them is to apologize honestly when you make a mistake.
So, I—
“I’m so sorry!”
I bowed deeply at a right angle towards Biner, lowering my head.
It was the apology of a lifetime for the man named Douglas.
In response, Biner said,
“Well… it’s fine, I guess… I felt good too… And now that I think about it, I don’t have the right to complain to Mr. Douglas after being defeated when I tried to kill you…”
She said, scratching her neck with a “poripori” sound.
Her cheeks were flushed a faint red, as if from embarrassment.
As for Seraphina,
“S-see! This noble character who honestly admits his mistakes! This is Lord Douglas!”
She tried her best to proudly cover up the situation.
As always, Seraphina was my devoted follower.
I’m sorry, that you have such a worthless object of faith.
