A short break while Hal is out! The unleashed princesses.
I, Elise Lisha Umb Portland, am the second-in-command (sub-leader) of the “Princess Harem” because Hal-sama has fallen ill. I decided to consult with the party members about our future plans.
“Hal-sama will be resting for a few days due to overwork. Do any of you have any opinions regarding this period? As for me, I think exploring the town of Inmanu freely would be good.”
“Elise… your smile is… dark…”
Shera was the one who responded to my words with a quiet murmur. Still, “dark smile” is quite rude, isn’t it?
“Do you have a complaint?! Shera!”
“…No…”
With just one glare from me, Shera seemed to surrender, curling up her fox tail. It’s good that I won, but it feels somewhat empty. However, it seems I managed to hold back Freya, who was about to follow suit.
“Could it be that the fact that my Elixir was squeezed out was unpleasant?”
Dietlinde, who was the key figure in defeating the Frau-lein-Richter and sending them to ascension in the recent battle against the undead, asked with a troubled expression. Speaking of squeezing out Elixir… I’m envious. That must be why Holy Spirit Serena, the cause of this incident, isn’t showing her face.
“No, at that point, there shouldn’t have been a problem.”
Lyusienne, who actually performed the act of ejaculating Elixir, replied with a blush. Even so, to be so engrossed in magic attacks as a form of diet that I missed out on such a delicious event was careless of me. In the back, Shera, who had set out to compete with me, is also frowning, her brow furrowed… But looking at Freya’s smug face next to her – it’s infuriating.
“From what I’ve heard, she said she was squeezed dry by the No-Life Princess, Salome Asherah Unimenia. I was surprised when Lyusienne told me that she was the third princess of the Principality of Unimenia in her lifetime. Perhaps the three Frau-lein-Richter were the personal knights of Princess Salome the Third. But, she apparently sent them to ascension safely as well, so it’s likely considered an honorable injury.”
Alicia, who had been trying to figure out the cause of Hal-sama’s collapse, reported this. If I recall correctly, the Principality of Unimenia belongs to the Western Nations and is an ally of the Espana Imperial Kingdom. In other words… The No-Life Princess Salome was a real princess? Even so, it seems that Alma, the former Countess who fell into being the new ancestor of the vampires, was indiscriminately greedy.
“Hal-sama collapsed not from a lack of usual stamina or physical strength, but because his Holy Aura has been depleted. I’m not good at delicate Holy Aura transfer, and Holy Spirit Serena, who could do it, has fled again. Therefore, he needs to rest for a few days for natural healing of his Holy Aura.”
“Mm.”
Swan Hilda continued to explain Hal-sama’s condition. Mai, who can use basic Healing Magic, also agreed with her explanation. Usually, even if someone gets sick or injured, Hal-sama’s Healing Magic instantly cures them, so the situation of Hal-sama collapsing is bewildering. However, since there’s no danger to his life, we’ve been thinking of taking this opportunity to relax. I also want to eat my fill of the famous dishes I heard about from Hamilton, or rather, Provisional Count Elgerblard…
“I also think free exploration is a good idea. This town of Inmanu is a trading city, so there might be some interesting hidden gems.”
Freya, who is also my rival, agreed with my opinion. Freya was interested because she did business as a “Downtown Princess.” Next to me, Shera’s greedy fox tail was wagging happily. Personally, I’d like to finish this meeting quickly and then *fluff-fluff* that fox tail.
Currently, in a certain conference room in Elgerblard Castle, there are 14 party members: myself, Elise, Alicia, Mai, Swan Hilda, Lyusienne, Kirika, Tirna, Edele, Freya, Liliana, Shera, Eria, and Astarotte, along with semi-party members Sharon and Miralca.
The “Princess Harem” has certainly become lively. I miss the days when Hal-sama and I started this. And originally, the “Princess” in “Princess Harem” was me, but now it’s amusing that there are so many “Princesses” crowding in.
Holy Spirit Serena, upon learning that Hal-sama had collapsed, fled again. The three vampire sisters, Lara, Lili, and Lulu, didn’t seem interested in the meeting. Originally, demons who have fallen to become summoned beasts shouldn’t be invited, but they’ve been hanging around so much that their absence would leave a sense of emptiness.
“Are there any other opinions?”
“I will take care of Hal-sama.”
When I asked for other opinions, Tirna raised her hand gracefully. When we rescued her from Park-li’s mansion, she was a magnificent “boku-ko” (boyish girl), but she has grown into a beautiful girl with a noble aura. Lyusienne’s foresight in appointing Tirna as her head maid is not to be underestimated.
“I think it would be better to gather information at the Adventurer Guild before moving.”
“Kirika, you make a good point.”
“Indeed, Lady Edelas. If you like, I can even gather information from the brothel districts…”
“Eria, do you have connections in this town’s brothels?”
“I think it’s possible even for Liliana, who used to be a ‘Rose’ at ‘Drop of Rose’!”
“I’m sorry, Eria. My memories of back then are vague…”
“It’s so lively just having discussions, I feel like I don’t belong here.”
“It’s okay, Sharon. You were called by Hal-sama. Even I, who came along uninvited, was welcomed…”
“Miralca has certainly matured.”
“Th-that’s right! Miralca, of all people!”
“Lady Edelas, I… but it infuriates me when you call me an ‘Incompetent Princess.'”
“Miralca… a good girl. Pat, pat.”
“Thank you, Lady Mai.”
“I want my head patted too…”
“Pat, pat… *nanodesu*, Astarotte.”
“Thank you, Shera.”
As a result of our discussions, we decided to have free time until Hal-sama recovered. However, we agreed not to act alone, as there was a concern about being kidnapped by someone.
For now, we decided to follow Kirika’s suggestion and visit the Adventurer Guild in the town of Inmanu. Naturally, we were fully equipped, wearing masks modeled after Valkyries and cloaks with hoods over our adventurer attire. The evil vampires, the Almas, have been destroyed, and the undead we were concerned about have been defeated and sent to ascension, but we can’t be sure there won’t be any new enemies.
“Individually, we might seem eccentric, but when we gather like this, it’s quite a sight.”
“Indeed it is… Liliana. As a Queen, I won’t be allowed such freedom, so let’s savor this moment.”
“Yes, Lady Lyusienne. Let’s both enjoy our freedom.”
Now that we are honored guests of the Count Elgerblard Family, there should be no one in Inmanu who would dare to confront us directly. If we were to be attacked, it would likely be by demons.
“I’m looking forward to it too, *arinsu* ♪”
“It’s nice to relax once in a while, Lili_Berze.”
“That’s right, Lara_Berze.”
“Elder sisters look like they’re having fun too.”
When I turned around, Holy Spirit Serena, Lara, Lili, and Lulu had joined us without us realizing it. They are truly unpredictable.
“…Gyah! Let me go, *arinsu*, Dietlinde!!”
“Don’t let your guard down. But to run away at the crucial moment… perhaps I should just hang you~”
“H-help me! Please! Even you must dislike arrows.”
“Tch! I can’t help it. I’ll let you off this time.”
“Th-thank goodness.”
Dietlinde, who had quietly approached from behind, had captured Holy Spirit Serena, who had been caught off guard. And then, the usual development… My head hurts a little, but everyone else is watching with a lukewarm gaze.
“Hey, you summoned beasts! What kind of audacity do you have to not answer my summons!?”
“Because undead smell bad.”
“And leftovers from the new ancestor are the worst!”
“I’ll make up for it this time, so please don’t let your Seiken-gan backfire ♡”
When I shifted my gaze, Lara and the others had been captured by Kirika. It’s like returning to their original casing.
“Old man, that’s some delicious-looking skewers.”
“Naturally! The meat is aged perfectly, and the secret sauce is the best! The vegetables are also fresh ones I picked out at the morning market this very morning!!”
“This… what kind of meat is it?”
“This is wild boar shoulder loin. I bought a whole one from the Adventurer Guild, butchered it, and took my time aging it. It’s a masterpiece. How about it, haven’t you tried it?”
We, who had departed Elgerblard Castle on foot, are heading towards the commercial district where the Adventurer Guild is located. Incidentally, Inmanu is located across the Former Wahl Imperial Kingdom Territory and the Former Yangas Kingdom Territory, so there is an Adventurer Guild on the side of the Former Wahl Imperial Kingdom Territory after crossing the checkpoint. In other words, we are heading to the Adventurer Guild located on the side of the Former Yangas Kingdom Territory.
Along the way, there was a stall emitting the delicious smell of roasting meat. The old man running the stall seemed stubborn, but these stalls are often surprisingly good. And the skewers with vegetables on them looked delicious too.
“How much are they per skewer?”
“One skewer is one iron plate (equivalent to 100 yen). Cheap, right!”
“Well, let’s see—”
Freya, who proclaims herself a shrewd accountant, immediately started negotiating the price. Behind Freya, Shera’s behind was *shiggling* and moving. She must be getting impatient, and her fox tail can’t stop wagging.
“The meat is so tender.”
“Indeed, the sauce is also the best.”
“These are really delicious skewers.”
“Mm… delicious.”
And so, we all ended up eating standing up. Astarotte was happily munching away, and Dietlinde was also very pleased. Swan Hilda and Mai were nodding at each other, so this stall was a great find. Generally, eating while standing is considered vulgar, but it’s not the case for us. After all, standing cocktail parties are common at social gatherings.
“Well, what vulgar people. And they’re wearing strange masks.”
“It can’t be helped, they’re lowly adventurers.”
“We ultimately live in different worlds.”
“Now, now, my little kittens. Forget about those poor people and let’s go to the restaurant I’ve booked!”
” ” “Yes, Lord Albert!” ” ”
While we were eating the skewers, a group of three young girls accompanied by a man passed by, openly hurling insults. The man was reasonably good-looking, but not so much that I’d feel a desire to reach out to him. We were slightly put off, but we used our royal ability to “ignore” and promptly forgot about them.
“Adventurer Guilds all have a similar atmosphere, don’t they?”
After thoroughly enjoying the skewers of meat and vegetables, we arrived at the Adventurer Guild. Alicia is looking at the counter windows and bulletin boards with interest. Of course, Holy Spirit Serena is in an invisible state, but I’m surprised by Lara and the others, who are posing as harmless young girls while looking surprisingly unfazed. I think if it were known that they are intermediate demons and the vampire ancestor, it would cause a panic…
“This request looks interesting.”
We were browsing for requests that could be completed in a short period when Liliana seemed to have found something.
“Huh!? Seeking an arrogant princess! Self-recommendation or recommendation by others accepted. Please reject the vulgar bastard who is your political marriage partner with a noble demeanor. The success reward is one gold coin (equivalent to 100,000 yen) and a [Treasure Map] (?) The confinement period is one day tomorrow!?”
It’s a suspicious request, but the surrounding party members seem to think it’s a good way to kill time. Even I find myself becoming interested.
2. The Substitute Fiancée is Princess Tirna!?
I, Elise Lisha Umb Portland, left Hal-sama, who was resting due to overwork, at Elgerblard Castle and visited the Adventurer Guild accompanied by the party members of “Princess Harem” and their associates.
As usual, we safely cashed in the monster parts we collected from subjugated magical beasts during our travels and the treasures we found on our adventures, so our finances are in good shape. Since there are two of us in “Princess Harem” who can use the Item Box with Space Magic, namely myself and Shera, storing and transporting those items was a piece of cake.
Generally, mages are rare, so most of those who come to the Adventurer Guild to cash in are carrying heavy-looking bags, in contrast to us.
“Thank you very much for using our guild today. Is there anything else we can help you with?”
“I’m considering taking this request, but to officially contract it, I need to meet the client and have them approve of me.”
“Yes, that’s correct. We will process this request as provisionally accepted by ‘Princess Harem.’ Please take this map to the client’s residence. If you are not approved, please return the map along with your report.”
“Understood, thank you. I hope the contract goes smoothly. Please await news of our success.”
“May the request be accepted successfully… and we look forward to your visit to collect the reward.”
And so, we provisionally accepted an interesting request at the Adventurer Guild.
“By the way, who will be undertaking this request? I think it would be more interesting to avoid using a real royal… Freya, you don’t have any problem with this, do you?”
“Elise, that’s a harsh accusation! If so, I’ll include Shera and Eria in the target group.”
“I… definitely… was a princess… nanodesu.”
“Well, I was a high-class young prostitute on the fringes…”
“Now, now, fighting is not good. I think Tirna should undertake this request.”
“Lady Lyusienne, why me?”
“Tirna has also become very ladylike recently. Show me what you’ve learned! After all, ‘Princess Harem’ has many real princesses, so imitating them should be easy.”
“That may be so, but…”
“Don’t worry, Tirna. With the techniques you’ve learned from the Wahl Imperial Kingdom’s imperial harem, dealing with most gentlemen should be easier than twisting a baby’s arm, shouldn’t it?”
“Even you, Lady Liliana… I understand. I will take this request.”
The candidates I was considering were Alicia, Mai, Tirna, Edele, Freya, Eria, Astarotte, Sharon, and Miralca, but Tirna, recommended by Lyusienne and Liliana, might be suitable.
This also feels like it could become interesting.
Let’s trail behind Tirna and enjoy watching the unfolding events ♪
◇ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◇
My, my, my name is Tirnan Lian von Tuser. When Hal-sama first rescued me, I was a “boku-ko” who kept my hair short and acted like a boy. And Lady Lyusienne, my original master, was aware of this.
However, after starting to live in “Princess Harem,” and with so many princesses and duchesses of similar age around me, I began to feel like acting as a noble daughter myself.
How should I put it? “Princess Harem” is like a school for training ladies. After all, there are many noble role models, so it’s natural to learn from them.
“According to the map, the client’s house is a little further ahead.”
The request accepted at the Adventurer Guild will be undertaken by me. I must live up to the expectations of Lady Lyusienne, who recommended me. I am walking in a residential area not far from Elgerblard Castle. This area seems to be lined with the houses of lower-ranking retainers.
My family, the Count Tuser Household, was in decline, but it was a Count Household directly serving the Wahl Imperial Kingdom. In other words, it was of equivalent status to the Count Elgerblard Family.
Subordinates serving direct noble families are called retainers, and below high-ranking nobles, either retainers with noble status themselves or noble families possessing several direct peerage titles existed. In other words, the place I am heading to seems to be the residence of a knightly retainer family.
“It seems to be this house.”
The house I arrived at, based on the map, is small, but the garden is well-maintained, and the house itself seems to be lived in with care, which is pleasing. My attire is made with careful stitching, not overly extravagant to match the client’s status, so I should appear as the daughter of a minor noble family.
“Hang in there… nanodesu.”
When I took off the hooded robe I wore over my navy blue one-piece dress, Shera came over and took it. In reality, Lady Lyusienne and the others are following me with some discreet tailing, so even if there’s a bit of trouble, they should be able to handle it.
*Tap, tap, tap*
“Is this the residence of Rut Crystina de la Sandas? I am here by introduction from the Adventurer Guild.”
*Chime, chime, creak*
Then, the doorbell rang, and the door opened.
“Welcome. I am Rut. We will discuss matters in my room, so please come with me.”
The girl who appeared had blonde hair braided and flowing down her back. Her facial features were not bad, but they were ruined by her round-bottomed glasses. However, a beautiful emerald gaze peered from behind the glasses. Her physique is slender, but her breasts seem to be in the process of developing, showing promise. This is material that ignites my maid’s spirit. She will surely shine if polished…
“I apologize for the messy room, but please sit on that chair. I will brew some tea, so please wait a moment.”
Rut-san, who had led me to her private room, went to make tea. Looking around the room, bookshelves were installed on the walls, packed with books and mysterious objects. It’s understandable that Rut-san has poor eyesight. Her type might be similar to Liliana, who is a self-proclaimed researcher of heroes.
“Once again, I am the client, Rut Crystina de la Sandas. May I know your name, my cute adventurer?”
“My name is Tirna. Please to meet you.”
I instinctively replied with a curtsey, falling back into my usual habit. It was a natural movement for me as the head maid of Lady Lyusienne, the fourth princess of the Wahl Imperial Kingdom, but the client, Rut-san, widened her eyes in surprise and froze. It seems I made a slight mistake. Rut-san wants a haughty, princess-like female adventurer to reject a political marriage she dislikes. However, she seemed to sense that the beautiful girl who arrived was not ordinary.
Could it be that I overdid it?
“Um… I hope you don’t mind, but if it’s not too much trouble, could you tell me Tirna-sama’s full name?”
Rut-san, who is at the bottom rung but still part of the nobility, asked with dignity. It seems I need to respond to this sincere attitude with sincerity.
“My name is Tirnan Lian von Tuser.”
*Clatter*
Rut-san, startled, stood up from her chair.
“Could it be that you are the daughter of the Count Tuser Family?”
“Oh… in terms of lineage, that is correct. However, my family was already in decline even before the Espana Imperial Kingdom invaded… I would appreciate it if you could understand the circumstances.”
“I-I see. However, to trouble a Count’s daughter for the sake of a mere knight’s daughter…”
“Please don’t worry so much. I am simply an Adventurer now. Let’s keep this business-like. Will you hire me?”
“Yes! Of course. I was fully aware that the enticing advertisement was an exaggeration, but I wanted to ask someone who appeared to be a noble daughter, even slightly. To be able to ask a genuine high-ranking noble daughter is beyond my expectations. By the way, the other party is a womanizer, is your self-defense okay?”
“As you can see, I’ve learned various techniques from the imperial harem.”
Thus, I seemed to have met Rut-san’s expectations, and we proceeded to the stage of explaining the job details and confirming the reward. The reward of one gold coin is a large sum for Rut-san. According to her explanation, it’s money earned from copying manuscripts as a form of study. As for the bonus [Treasure Map], it was hidden within a cleverly crafted back cover of an old, dusty magical book (?) purchased from a used bookstore.
There is no doubt that this [Treasure Map] struck a chord with Lady Liliana.
The job is to thoroughly reject the person she was recently forced into a political marriage with. The fiancé is said to be reasonably good-looking but is a womanizer and not someone she can have a sincere relationship with. He is currently in a state of having a mini-harem with three girls he fancies.
According to the investigation of the other party’s conduct, although he calls himself her fiancé, he actually intends to make her his and then break off the engagement once he’s tired of her. If this is true, it’s marriage fraud. What a scumbag! Even if I didn’t have work, ‘Heavenly Punishment’ is fitting for an enemy of women.
Indeed, he seems to be someone the serious-looking Rut-san cannot handle.
Incidentally, their engagement was decided by their parents, but they have not even had a formal meeting yet. Despite this, this scumbag is using love letters disguised as summons to lure Rut-san out. If she were to go, he intends to create a fait accompli and force her to submit, undoubtedly leading to rape. This is truly beyond belief.
That’s precisely why she asked if I had mastered self-defense.
“Lady Tirna, please take this bookmark as a token. The other party’s name is Albert Lancia de la Gradra—”
And so, I received information about the secret meeting place and the bookmark to be used for identity verification. The bookmark is made by treating deciduous leaves with chemicals, leaving only the veins, and dyeing them red. I am to go to a cafe called ‘Gracile on the Border’ at 10 AM tomorrow, sit at the innermost table, place the bookmark on the desk, and wait for the other party.
As for the womanizing fiancé, Albert Lancia de la Gradra, he is described as a silver-haired, blue-eyed, handsome man. He is 19 years old, considerably older than the 14-year-old Rut-san, but the age difference is not impossible for a noble marriage. However, his womanizing is his biggest flaw. Also, Albert’s family, while retainers of the Count Elgerblard Family, has been granted the title of Baron, which is why Rut-san couldn’t refuse him.
This is precisely why she wants to thoroughly defeat him in a secret meeting before the formal meeting and have Albert himself propose the annulment. Perhaps Rut-san is also quite cunning. While talking about such things, it was revealed that Rut-san worships Lady Liliana.
It seems that Princess Yuliana the Second, who has been revived through the efforts of us “Princess Harem,” is working hard, and through her, the survival of Crown Prince Liliana is being widely publicized. Rumor has it that Safiya is also quite active.
Still, by what means shall I punish this womanizer?
Once he touches my body, I could knock him unconscious with sleeping pills, or perhaps make him lustful with an aphrodisiac and then release him into the town to expose his disgrace. Or, using the straightforward method, is it more interesting to subdue him with verbal abuse? I myself have learned rapier for self-defense from Lady Lyusienne, but I am generally better at “trickery.”
3. Crisis of Chastity and the Roaring “Heavenly Punishment”! △
“Tirna, if you deem it dangerous, you may dispose of the scumbag (Albert).”
“I can see the fate of the womanizer (Albert).”
“Leave it to me, Lady Lyusienne, Lady Liliana.”
The next morning, I, Tirnan Lian von Tuser, who was to meet Albert Lancia de la Gradra, a womanizer, as a substitute for the client Rut Crystina de la Sandas, was prompted by Lady Lyusienne and Lady Liliana.
“Heheheh. I’ll be lurking nearby too. Call me if there’s an emergency.”
For some reason, Holy Spirit Serena, or rather, the horny old man, is also excited. I will simply politely turn away the handsome Albert… In the end, it seems everyone will follow me without exception. Hal-sama’s complexion has also greatly improved, so the bedside care is left to the maids of the Count Elgerblard Family.
Today’s weather is lightly cloudy and pleasant.
My attire today is a sky-blue one-piece dress. This dress was purchased at a second-hand store and is slightly faded. I am wearing pretend glasses borrowed from Freya on my face to create the guise of Rut-san. Furthermore, I have put on a wig of blonde hair braided into a French braid.
These disguises are the work of my meddlesome party members, but I believe the expenses have already exceeded the reward of one gold coin (equivalent to 100,000 yen)… Since the goal is to kill time, they spared no expense. Even Freya, who should normally be suppressing expenses, gave her tacit approval, which is a headache. And the expense category is classified as entertainment. According to Freya, it ended up being cheaper than letting each of us play as we pleased. Moreover, the [Treasure Map] (?), which was supposed to be an extra reward, also scored high points as a pastime.
Even so, I cannot betray Lady Lyusienne’s expectations.
While deep in thought, I arrived at the target cafe. “Gracile on the Border” is a stylish shop with a triangular roof and ivy-covered brick walls, exuding an atmospheric charm.
*Galan, galan, creak*
As I opened the door, the sounds of a cowbell-like bell accompanied a view of the interior. The interior was dim and had a slightly dangerous atmosphere. It doesn’t seem appropriate for keeping a girl waiting before a formal meeting. Nevertheless, I must proceed to fulfill the request. Resolving myself, I entered the store, took a seat at the designated innermost table, and placed the bookmark, the symbol, on the desk.
Now, all that’s left is to wait for the womanizer to arrive.
“Customers, have you decided on your order?”
“I’ll have some black tea. What kind of tea leaves do you have? Could you recommend something?”
“At our establishment, we source from the Former Kingdom of Sazania in the Southern Nations—”
After a while, a waitress came to take my order. I decided to order black tea, playing it safe.
“…Fugaaaa! …Ughh… Uuuu… Yeah… Uuuuuuuu… —”
However, the waitress who approached from behind me suddenly pressed a wet towel against my face. Th-this! It’s a familiar smell of sleeping medication. But this is a very bad situation. Even I have no way to deal with this… —.
◇ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◇
“Did it work! Mira?”
“Yes! I made her fall asleep as instructed by Lord Albert.”
I, Albert Lancia de la Gradra, have now trapped Rut Crystina de la Sandas, my arbitrarily appointed fiancée. This cafe, “Gracile on the Border,” has a proprietor who is one of my womanizing buddies, so I’ve rented out the place today with the intention of raping this plain, ugly wench (Rut) to force her into breaking off the engagement.
I have absolutely no intention of settling down with this plain, unattractive wench.
I already have three lovely kittens.
This time, the older Mira Haldez, disguised as a waitress, made this wench fall asleep. Mira is 17 years old, two years younger than me, but she is a beautiful woman with silver hair and blue eyes, giving off a cool impression. Despite her slender physique, she has overflowing big breasts that are adorable. She is Kitten No. 1, who cries in such a cute voice in bed.
“You’re amazing, Mira! That was a skillful move.”
“I was actually a bit worried it would take too long, my heart was pounding.”
Emerging from behind the door leading to the second floor, a beautiful young lady emerged. She is my Kitten No. 2, Caloria Carladora. Caloria was originally the pampered daughter of a wealthy family but now her body cannot live without my penis. She is a legitimate beauty with luxurious golden curly hair and blue eyes. Her slender body and subtly developing beautiful breasts are very cute. She is 16 years old, and the development of her breasts is almost complete, which is a pity. However, since she was a daughter I worked hard to conquer, I have no intention of letting her go.
“Lord Albert, the second floor is ready.”
Finally, the last to appear is the quiet girl with brown hair and black eyes, my Kitten No. 3, Panna Chudos. She is the youngest among the kittens at 14 years old. At first glance, she appears to be in the early stages of secondary sexual characteristics with a youthful body, but when undressed, she reveals hidden big breasts, a wonderful physique.
ext
The moans of Miralca made my penis erect.
However, Miralca’s body, still a virgin, needed to be opened up slowly. Haste was not the key. Placing my palm as if to cup her labia, I sank my middle finger into the slit of her outer labia and stirred the flesh.
*Squish, squish, glug glug glug*
“No, no, no! Your finger is inside, stirring me… Ahhh!”
Then, Miralca experienced her second orgasm.
“Miralca, how does that feel?”
“…pant… pant… pant… It feels… not like my body anymore… I’m going to explode.”
Miralca replied, gasping with a flushed face. Her body was limp, drained of strength. Her breasts were fully exposed as her bra was lifted, her nipples still erect, her entire chest stained red from my caresses.
Her lower body, too, seemed unable to keep her legs closed, and they were slightly spread apart. A shameful stain had appeared on her pure white panties. In such a short time, Miralca’s body had become quite lewd.
Watching her state, my son signaled that it was ready and erect. However, Miralca’s body would need a bit more development. I removed her bra, which had become useless, and had her undress her upper body.
Compared to when I last saw her after she changed from a demonkin to a human, her breasts seemed more rounded. This was a supreme, beautiful pair of breasts. I then proceeded to remove her panties. Miralca, now relaxed, became completely naked without any significant resistance.
Looking at Miralca’s female genitalia, I saw a cute little bean (clitoris) that was erect, surrounded by its clitoral hood. Seeing this innocent state, it seemed Miralca had never masturbated before. The outer labia that I had stirred with my finger moments ago had closed again—snugly—and from between them, dripping love juice pooled on the futon.
Miralca seemed to be producing a lot of lubricant. With this much wetness, foreplay was over, and I judged that we could proceed to the next step.
“Miralca, it’s almost time for the long-awaited penetration.”
“Huh? Are you going to put it in already?”
“With this much wetness, it should be fine.”
“Hal-oniisama, will my vagina really not tear?”
“Don’t worry, a girl’s body is made to accept a penis. After all, Swan Hilda and Edele both experienced the ‘First Night Ritual’ and were fine, right?”
“Won’t your exquisite treasure hurt when it enters? I… I’m still scared.”
“It’s natural to feel pain the first time. All girls overcome this pain to become adult women.”
“R-really??”
“It’s true. Also, after a few times, it changes into sexual pleasure.”
“…Yes, Hal-oniisama, please break my hymen.”
“Understood, Miralca. I’ll try my best to minimize the pain, so relax your body too.”
“…Yes.”
6. I’m Scared, But… I’ve Been Waiting ③
In the bedroom assigned to me in Elgerblard Castle, Miralca, naked, lay in the center of a luxurious canopy bed meant for guests. Miralca had volunteered for the ‘First Night Ritual,’ wanting me to break her hymen. My careful foreplay had led her to experience orgasm twice, and the love juice dripping from her labia had formed a puddle.
I declared the foreplay over and was about to break Miralca’s hymen and have her virginity loss. Still, Miralca’s body had matured so deliciously in the short time I hadn’t seen her.
Moving to Miralca’s feet, I grabbed her slender ankles and lifted them.
“Aah! How embarrassing!”
Miralca’s shy cries echoed through the bedroom.
I spread her lifted legs apart. Naturally, the entirety of Miralca’s crotch region was revealed. The small perineum sandwiched between the labial slit and buttocks, aligned as a single groove, was a spectacular sight. As for her buttocks, I had only touched them through her dress, so there was little change from my caresses.
Meanwhile, some of the love juice that dripped from her labia, which I had caressed with my fingers, was flowing down her abdomen. Miralca seemed to be producing a lot of lubricant. However, I thought the stimulation might be too strong for virgin Miralca, so I had refrained from caressing her clitoris. For her outer labia, I had only inserted my middle finger and stirred them, reminding myself that I had not yet caressed her vaginal opening.
Even if she was very wet, her vaginal opening might be shrunken, making penetration impossible. First, I needed to check the condition of her inner labia.
Although it was an embarrassing position for virgin Miralca, she bent at the waist, spreading her legs into a crab-like position. Miralca was still shy, hiding her face with her hands.
Before my eyes, Miralca’s female genitalia were fully visible. Furthermore, as her legs were spread wide apart, her labia were pulled to the sides, slightly opening to reveal the flesh within.
The mystery of the female body was always astonishing, no matter how many times I witnessed it.
*Drip*
“…Hii! Eek!”
As I hooked my fingers onto her outer labia and parted them, a sensual moan escaped Miralca.
Inside her outer labia, there was a flood of secreted love juice. Deep within the pink flesh, the urethra and vaginal opening were visible. However, as I had feared, her vaginal opening was constricted, making it difficult to insert my son.
As always, it seemed I needed to insert my finger into her vaginal opening to expand it.
No, this time I decided to loosen it with my tongue.
*Slurp♡, lick, lick, lick, lick, lick, lick*
“…Hyan?! …An♡ …Yan yan yan… Don’t lick me!”
I kissed her soft inner thighs and licked my way towards her hidden treasure. Miralca seemed to be feeling it, kicking her legs. And by deciding to loosen it with my tongue, I also ended up caressing her clitoris, which I had considered skipping earlier.
I thought that suddenly pinching a virgin’s bean with fingers would be too stimulating. However, kissing it or gently sucking it should be fine.
*Kiss♡, kiss~, slurp, slurp, lick, lick, lick, lick, lick, lick*
“…N-no! What is this?! My body is numb… Ahh♡ …I feel like I’m melting! I’m going to go crazy!”
As I began caressing her clitoris with my tongue, Miralca seemed to be feeling inexplicably overwhelmed.
*Lick, lick, lick, lick, smack, smack, lick, lick*
“Yan yan yan! I’m going crazy… An an an♡ …Yan yan yan♡ …”
Then, I licked her lubricated outer and inner labia—sloppily.
*Tap, tap, tap, squish, squish, lick, lick, lick*
“What is this?! What is it! I’m feeling it… yan yan yan… N-nooo!”
Continuing, I placed the tip of my tongue on her vaginal opening and poked and loosened it.
*Squish, squish, squeeze, squeeze, knead, knead, squeeze*
While I was at it, I lifted her buttocks slightly and massaged her buttock flesh with my palms.
*Lick, lick, lick, lick, tap, tap, tap, lick, lick, lick*
At the same time, I licked and poked her female genitalia.
“Y-yes! No, no, no, it’s leaking… Nooo!”
*Drip, drip, splash, aaaahhhhhh*
And then, Miralca experienced her third orgasm and gushed profusely. The ejected fluid hit my face intensely and formed a steaming puddle on the futon. As it was, this would hinder the ‘First Night Ritual,’ so I cast ‘Washing Magic’ to dry our bodies and the wet futon.
“H-Hal-oniisama… I’m so sorry. I’ve made such a terrible mistake. You can… punish me—”
Miralca, having gushed profusely, began to apologize with a pale face.
“It’s alright, Miralca. It’s a natural phenomenon, and I’m sorry for caressing you so intensely. It seems your vaginal opening has loosened up nicely, so shall we continue?”
On the contrary, I apologized, and Miralca visibly relaxed. Perhaps in the demonkin world, the act of squirting fluid at someone was considered an insult? Well, I didn’t think Miralca, who had apparently been a sheltered noble among the demonkin, would know such vulgar things.
And now that Miralca’s vaginal opening seemed to have loosened up somehow, I would finally grant her ‘virginity loss.’
“Alright then, let’s restart and break your hymen.”
“Please, Hal-oniisama. Don’t make it painful!”
“Everyone feels pain at first. But your vagina won’t tear, so don’t worry.”
“…Yes, I’ll leave it to you.”
I lifted Miralca and laid her in the center of the bed, raised her knees to a kneeling position, and then slowly spread her legs apart. The ‘Washing Magic’ I had cast earlier had washed away the spurted fluid and any love juice that had dripped from her labia, but the slit of her labia was still sticky with moisture.
In fact, newly secreted love juice seemed to be overflowing, and unsightly droplets were falling again. Miralca truly got wet easily.
*Drip*
“Ah!! It’s embarrassing after all…”
I removed my panties, exposing my erect penis, and pressed down on Miralca. Holding my shaft with my left hand and spreading her outer labia and vaginal opening with my right, Miralca covered her face with her hands, her face bright red. For Miralca, a sheltered maiden, perhaps she couldn’t bear to watch the first penetration.
*Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop*
And as intended, the tip of my penis, the urethral opening, came into contact with her vaginal opening and was slowly swallowed. Miralca’s vaginal opening was narrow and tight. As my penis advanced, it tore through the partially adhered vaginal walls.
It seemed that the pain of virginity loss during the first penetration was largely due to the tearing of the vaginal walls, not just the hymen. This was something I knew from the experience of causing ‘virginity loss’ in many maidens.
“…It hurts! It really hurts! It’s so painful… I feel like I’m tearing apart!”
As penetration began, Miralca screamed, crying out from the fear of her vaginal walls tearing and the invasion of a foreign object, my son. She pushed against my chest and lightly slapped me, begging me to stop. But a man who had come this far could not stop. Indifferently, my son pushed through the narrow vaginal walls.
“Miralca, relax your body! If you don’t, it will only hurt!”
“B-but you say that when it hurts, it hurts… An♡ …My breasts! I don’t want this anymore!”
Miralca was in more pain than I expected, and she was also unable to relax her body, so to distract her from the pain, I began to caress her breasts somewhat roughly. As I slowly lowered my hips, I massaged and sucked her breasts. Miralca’s body soon began to sweat, and she seemed to be merging with me. The slender Miralca arched under me, and she was in pain.
And the tip of my penis reached the narrow part of her vagina.
Beyond this lay the hymen to be broken. I paused my advance and gathered momentum to thrust from my hips.
“B-break, dammit!”
*Crack*
“Gyahhh!”
With a sudden thrust of my hips, the hymen was broken in one go, and my penis sank deeper. Then, I carefully advanced, stopping just before her cervix. Her vaginal opening, which had accepted my penis, expanded to its limit, and a bright red ‘witness bloodstain’ dripped from the conjunction. Thus, Miralca’s ‘virginity loss’ was completed without further incident.
“Miralca, can you see where you and I are connected?”
“We’re connected, Hal-oniisama! There’s a slight discomfort in my lower abdomen now, but it doesn’t hurt much.”
“Shall we start moving soon?”
“…Yes.”
*Kiss♡ Kiss, kiss~, kiss~pa*
*Squelch, squelch, squelch, squelch*
*Thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust*
“…An♡ Yan yan yan, Aah♡ …Aah, aah, aah♡ …”
Given permission to move my hips, I sealed our lips with a deep kiss, caressed her breasts, and began thrusting and pumping. I thrust with all my might, trying to lead Miralca to her fourth orgasm.
*Thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust*
“…Aaaah♡ Hyaaaah… An an an, yan yan yan…”
“There, there, Miralca! Receive my hot thrusts and semen!”
*Thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust, thrust*
“Aaaah, Hyaaaah, I-I’m cummiiiing!”
“I’m reaching my limit too! I’m going to cum!”
*Gushhhhhh*
And then, Miralca and I reached orgasm simultaneously, or rather, I ejaculated in time with her orgasm. Perhaps it was because the foreplay was long, but I felt like I ejaculated a larger amount than usual. I hadn’t refined my holy aura this time, so it was just plain white semen.
Afterward, once we recovered from our post-orgasm stupor, Miralca and I connected one more time in missionary position, and then again in doggy style, until her stamina reached its limit.
“With this, the ‘First Night Ritual’ has successfully concluded, and Miralca has become an adult woman. How do you feel?”
“So this is the true first night. There is indeed a discomfort and pain in my crotch area, but it’s definitely not torn. And during the last round, I felt a little beyond the pain. I can’t thank you enough, Hal-oniisama.”
“That’s good then.”
“Now I can return to St. Agnes Abbey without any regrets.”
“You’re leaving already?”
“Yes, I’m worried about the young former demonkin girls I left behind…”
“Be careful on your way back. By the way, you can wash away the sweat by taking a bath, but your hymen can also be healed with ‘Healing Magic.’ What do you think?”
“What you broke for me today is a precious memory, so I’ll leave it as it is.”
“I see. In that case, I’ll go draw you a bath.”
“Yes, please.”
Thus, Miralca’s ‘First Night Ritual’ concluded successfully. The next morning, Swan Hilda, woken by Miralca, accompanied her back to St. Agnes Abbey. All that remained was Sharon, whom I had summoned. Sharon, who had seen her off, looked a little sad. Later, Alicia told me that Edele, tearfully, embraced Miralca as they parted, while Swan Hilda looked refreshed.
This was because I, still recovering from illness, had overslept.
Incidentally, as I finished ejaculating inside Miralca, a strange scene flashed through my mind. It was the tragic end of Miralca as a true vampire. The Hero Party, who had stormed the Demon King’s castle, defeated Demon King Gandaro after much hardship, and were in the process of hunting down the remaining forces.
Miralca had been hiding in a secret room within the castle, but my past self, Lester the Cleric, had discovered her. As she burst out, Hero Albert Sandia cleaved her in two with the holy sword Karyut. Miralca, split in half from the waist, sank into a pool of blood, spreading blood and entrails, her face contorted in agony. And immediately after, due to the protection of the Fire God Calyun bestowed upon the holy sword Karyut, her body burned to ashes.
But it was a strange delusion.
If my memory served me correctly, after defeating Demon King Gandaro, there were no maiden demonkin left in the castle. In fact, Miralca was alive and would live a happy life as a human.
7. The [Treasure Map] Leads to a Sinful Land
It was the morning of the third day since the horde of undead, led by SALOME ARCHELLA UNIMENIA, the No-Life Princess, had attacked the city of Imann. I, Hal Harem Von Raymond, was finally able to get up. To be precise, I had almost completely recovered last night, but Miralca, a former demonkin and true vampire, had visited my bedroom and eagerly desired the ‘First Night Ritual.’ After thoroughly moistening her with careful foreplay, it led to virginity loss, and I became tired again.
In fact, Miralca, like Swan Hilda and Edele, feared that her vaginal opening would tear from the penis. That’s why it was necessary to take extra time and carefully break her hymen.
Because of this, I overslept more than planned this morning. Getting out of bed and washing my face with cold water blew away my sleepiness and fatigue. After getting dressed, I went out into the hallway and saw Alicia walking towards me.
“Good morning, Hal. Are you feeling well enough to be up now?”
“Good morning, Alicia. My condition has mostly recovered, so I decided to get up today.”
“I see. That’s good.”
“By the way… could you call Miralca?”
“Miralca left for St. Agnes Abbey early this morning, waking up Swan Hilda. She asked me to tell you thank you. You took her last night, didn’t you?”
“Well… something like that.”
Miralca was, in a way, a hurried girl. Still, she seemed to have adapted well to the ‘Princess Harem.’ I recalled Miralca mentioning that she looked after the younger sisters as the elder among the former demonkin maidens. Since she had completed her initial goal of the ‘First Night Ritual,’ she had probably hurried back.
Well, I had told her she could come anytime as a quasi-Party Member of the ‘Princess Harem,’ so she would likely visit again if she wanted to.
“Good morning, Hal-sama. Are you well enough to be up now?”
“Good morning, Elise. You worried about me.”
“Not at all. This incident was a… honorable injury. We will gather everyone in the conference room shortly. Please report your full recovery. We also have reports from your absence.”
“I see. Then please gather them. But I heard Miralca returned to St. Agnes Abbey, and Swan Hilda is probably escorting her.”
“We were acting as a group, so Swan Hilda’s absence is not a problem.”
“Understood, Elise.”
“I’ve worried everyone, but I’ve managed to heal, so I’ll be returning to my normal routine from today.”
“Hal-sama, I’m so happy you’ve returned. We truly need your protection.”
“As Lychenne said, we were very anxious.”
“I also begged for Elixir, having been instigated by the Sex Spirit Old Man, so I was very worried.”
As I greeted them upon my return, Lychenne spoke first, followed by Liliana and Dietlinde, and then the rest of the Party Members chimed in.
“Regarding our actions during Hal-sama’s absence, we all went to the Adventurer Guild—”
Elise, the副長 (sub-leader) of the ‘Princess Harem,’ then explained what had happened during my absence. It seemed they had planned to explore Imann City freely, but Liliana found a quest, assigned it to Tirna, and then observed her with voyeuristic curiosity.
The quest involved helping a daughter of a low-ranking noble break off her engagement with her disliked fiancé. The young noble in question was a lecher who kept three mistresses despite being engaged, and they ultimately achieved their goal by having him flee in disgrace.
However, for some reason, Tirna’s complexion was flushed.
Perhaps an unforeseen event occurred during the mission, but since Tirna herself didn’t report it, I didn’t intend to pry. The quest was completed yesterday, and they received one Gold Coin (equivalent to about $1,000) and a [Treasure Map](?) at the Adventurer Guild counter.
“Is this the [Treasure Map]? …It’s quite old.”
The [Treasure Map] received from Tirna after completing the quest was quite old. It depicted the location of treasure on parchment, but some parts were smudged and illegible. I tried to decipher it while squinting at it.
“We’ve obtained the [Treasure Map], but I can’t figure out where it points.”
Liliana, with tired eyes, was likely engrossed in deciphering it all night.
“Ah! I think I can decipher it!!”
“W-where is it?”
“It’s that vertical shaft where those Undead were swarming.”
“Ah, you mean there!”
Then, comparing the map of Imann and its surroundings hanging on the conference room wall with the [Treasure Map], I happened to notice that the destination seemed to point to one of the vertical shafts. As expected, Liliana was showing great interest. Upon further investigation, it seemed this vertical shaft pointed to the location where the bodies of the girls who had become Undead were discarded.
“As expected, it seems we need to investigate the bottom of that vertical shaft.”
“Hal-sama, to reach the bottom of that vertical shaft, we’ll need Swan Hilda’s Sky Soaring to descend… won’t that be difficult?”
“Don’t worry, Astarotte. There’s likely a tunnel connecting to the lowest level of the underground ruins below the Prison Tower. I suspect that horde of Undead also overflowed to the surface through that passage.”
“So that’s how it was. I couldn’t understand how low-ranking Girl Skeletons and Lady Zombies could suddenly reach the surface and attack Imann City, even if a controlling individual appeared.”
“Aeria, couldn’t you figure out such a simple deduction?”
“Th-that’s… Freya, did you figure it out?”
“There’s no way Freya would have figured it out.”
“Elise, don’t say such harsh things!”
“Then, did you know?”
“………”
In the end, it seemed most of the Party Members hadn’t realized. We boarded a carriage and headed towards the vicinity of the vertical shaft to search for the secret tunnel. As we departed from Elgerblard Castle, Count Elgerblard, who should have been busy after inheriting his title, and his fiancée, Miss Eringye, came to see us off.
“It feels like we’ve come to a standstill here. Half of Imann City is former Waiyar Imperial Kingdom territory…”
As we boarded the carriage, Lychenne muttered, looking back. Then, we rode the carriage back to the vicinity of the vertical shaft in question. The surrounding area was a dense forest, and the vertical shaft had created a large hole slightly off the Main Road.
“The undergrowth is disturbed over there.”
As we observed our surroundings while driving the carriage slower than a normal pace, Kirika discovered an anomaly.
“Indeed, the undergrowth is trampled. Let’s park the carriage here and send out scouts. Mai, can you handle it?”
“Hmm… Leave it to me.”
“I’ll go too.”
As Mai dashed off, Sharon ran out in response. Both possessed excellent physical abilities and disappeared into the dense forest in an instant. We parked the carriage on the roadside of the Main Road, taking care not to obstruct passing travelers or horse-drawn carriages.
Further down this road, the thirteenth princess of the Great Lust Empire, who had been deceived by the Incubi Bakoon, was indiscriminately beheading travelers. However, since we had eliminated them, it seemed the road had regained its function. But to think that three days ago, hordes of Undead had swarmed, I felt a pang of pain.
“Found it!”
“Hal-sama, I’ve found it. It was easy this time. With the undergrowth so trampled, magical concealment would have been useless.”
After waiting for a while, Mai and Sharon returned, competing to report first. As it turned out, a secret tunnel leading to the bottom of this vertical shaft had also been dug. The entrance had been cleverly concealed again, but the passage of numerous Undead had trampled the undergrowth, creating a path. The scale of the tunnel was similar to the one we passed through in the Prison Tower. We could reach the bottom of the vertical shaft by carriage, but the trees growing along the way were obstructing it.
“It looks like it’s our turn. Aeria, help me.”
“Yes, Elise-sama.”
“I’ll chop it down with my Zantou!”
Since the trees were in the way, I considered getting off the carriage and proceeding on foot, but Elise called out to Aeria, and they began felling the obstructing trees with attacks like [Water Cutter] and [Wind Cutter]. At the same time, Shera, transformed into her elder sister Shera, swung her Zantou, cutting down the remaining trees and undergrowth. This cleared a path to the secret tunnel.
“This is regrettable… I can only use Fire Spirit Magic…”
Meanwhile, Dietlinde, concerned about the surrounding area catching fire from the conflagration, couldn’t use fire spirit magic. Furthermore, her preferred rapier and bow were not needed. In other words, she felt a sense of regret.
“Who was it who boasted that the forest was an elf’s exclusive domain? Gufufufu.”
“Grrr, this time, I’ll definitely turn you into an arrowhead.”
While silently grumbling at Elise and the others who were efficiently clearing the path, Dietlinde was suddenly teased by Holy Spirit Serena, who dispelled her invisibility, and their usual bickering began. It truly gave me a headache. Incidentally, the three vampire sisters had not shown themselves, seeming to be thoroughly avoiding anything related to the undead.
As the trees were felled by offensive magic and Zantou, the sound of falling trees gradually diminished, and silence fell. It seemed the path had been opened.
“Phew, I broke a good sweat. I’m looking forward to seeing how much weight I’ve lost ♪”
“I’m exhausted.”
“I still have plenty of energy!”
After a short wait, Elise, Aeria, and Elder Sister Shera returned, chatting amicably.
“I’ve caught you! What are you going to do with me…?”
“That’s Holy Spirit Serena, who is on the side of justice. How dare you be rude to her, you’ll be cursed for generations!”
“Didn’t the gods also wish to undo this existence and return it to a Holy Element Spirit?”
“Please don’t strangle me. What an inhuman and evil, insidious elf.”
*Gulp*
“It hurts, it hurts! Please stop strangling me. Hal-sama, save me!”
Meanwhile, the verbal sparring between Dietlinde and Holy Spirit Serena had also subsided. As I turned my gaze towards Dietlinde, Holy Spirit Serena, who had approached carelessly, was verbally abusing her within Dietlinde’s palm, but Dietlinde merely offered a cold smile. Then, as Dietlinde tried to twist Serena’s body, Holy Spirit Serena cried out for help.
“Hal-sama, I’ve successfully cleared a path to the tunnel, but the stench inside the tunnel was so bad it almost made my nose fall off.”
Mai and Sharon, who were listening to Elise’s report, blushed as they were pointed out for their omissions. Come to think of it, it was natural, considering a large number of Lady Zombies covered in rotting flesh had passed through just three days ago.
“Hey, Serena. You want to be saved, right?”
“Of-of course.”
“Then, can you purify the stench with your holy power?”
I asked Holy Spirit Serena, who was being apprehended by Dietlinde, if she would purify the stench.
“That’s troublesome… It hurts! Okay, I’ll stop.”
“Justice is on my side.”
However, Holy Spirit Serena was not one to obey easily. After shamelessly refusing, saying it was troublesome, she quickly changed her mind and agreed when Dietlinde tightened her grip on her palm. Having obtained her promise regarding the purification of the stench, Dietlinde declared victory with a smile.
“…Pant… pant… pant… The purification is complete. The air is now clean, not only inside the tunnel but also at the bottom of the vertical shaft. Still, it was a terrible ordeal.”
Thus, we were able to head towards the bottom of the vertical shaft, splitting ourselves into two carriages. As expected, Holy Spirit Serena, who seemed exhausted, gave me the purification completion report and then turned invisible and disappeared.
8. The [Treasure Map] Leads to the ‘Trial Chamber’
“I’m very excited! [Treasure Map]… What a romantic phrase that stirs a maiden’s heart!”
Beside me on the driver’s seat of the carriage I’m piloting, sits Liliana, who discovered the quest request that initiated this adventure. Liliana is knowledgeable about ancient languages and history as a hero researcher, but she’s engrossed in such a questionable [Treasure Map]…
I understand her enthusiasm, but… I worry about the New Yangus Kingdom.
Liliana, engrossed in the [Treasure Map], doesn’t seem to notice that Tirna, who actually accepted the quest, is acting differently than usual. By the way, Freya is the coachman of the following carriage, and Mai is sitting next to her, keeping watch.
The carriage deviated from the Main Road and entered the path cleared by Elise and the others, heading towards the tunnel leading to the bottom of the vertical shaft, which was hidden by magic. The fallen trees were cut into fine wood chips by the attack magic of Elise and Aeria, allowing the horses and carriage wheels to pass without obstruction.
“So this is the entrance to the tunnel!”
“This is undoubtedly a relic from the Ancient Magical Civilization Era.”
Ahead of the path we cleared, a crumbling stone gate stood open. Until this point, we hadn’t seen any ruins, indicating the presence of ‘Concealment Magic’ here.
“Alright, let’s head into the tunnel. We don’t know what’s inside, so be careful, Liliana!”
“Just seeing this makes me so excited! ♪”
We entered the tunnel, illuminated by magic tools that lit up the surroundings and the path ahead. The expense put into the internal structure was strikingly similar to the tunnel leading to the underground ruins of the ‘Prison Tower.’ The tunnel spiraled downwards, gently curving. This suggested that a tunnel was constructed around a vertical shaft.
Still, I wondered about the purpose of this vertical shaft.
“It seems to have led to an underground parking lot.”
“Hal, I see stairs going up and stairs going down.”
“We parked the carriages first. Shall we head up?”
“Yes, understood.”
We parked our two carriages side-by-side in the underground parking lot.
“Wow, it looks exactly like the underground ruins of the ‘Prison Tower’!”
“I’m surprised there are so many places like this!”
“Mmm.”
Elise, Freya, and Mai, who had descended from the carriage behind us, expressed their astonishment.
“Hal, it’s this way!”
“Liliana, don’t run ahead alone! There’s still a possibility of undead remaining.”
While we were awestruck by the grandeur of the underground parking lot, Liliana, who is usually clumsy, tried to press on ahead. I admonished her. Then, we all moved together, with Shera-nee and Mai taking the front, and Elise and Sharon at the rear, cautiously ascending the stairs.
At the exit of the stairs, there was another ruin on the verge of collapse, with a door that bore signs of having been heavily locked until recently. This confirmed that mere Girl Skeletons and Lady Zombies, incapable of opening such a lock, could not have passed through. It meant that Salome-chan, who had evolved from a Lady Zombie into a No-Life Princess, must have deliberately opened it to allow passage.
The ground, which we had assumed to be the bottom of the vertical shaft, was overgrown with giant trees, forming a dense forest, similar to the surroundings. However, the ground where the undead had roamed was trodden hard, with no undergrowth. Salome-chan’s leadership had also been effective, as no undead remained here.
“There’s nothing here but trodden ground and trees, isn’t there?”
We searched the area just in case, but found nothing.
“Well then, let’s head towards the stairs leading further underground, which is likely the main objective.”
Returning to the underground parking lot, we stepped onto the stairs that descended deeper.
“The ruins are definitely active.”
“My expectations are soaring!”
As we started descending the stairs, magic tool illuminations, spaced at regular intervals on the stone walls, lit up on their own. We proceeded cautiously, considering the possibility of undead remaining in this area. However, we found no signs of small animal carcasses or accumulated dust. Was it perhaps because this underground ruin had been completely sealed until recently? The surrounding stone walls were seamless, suggesting advanced construction techniques.
To us, the Ancient Magical Civilization is an enigma. Their magic tools, crafted with advanced magical knowledge that we cannot replicate even today, are sometimes discovered in the deepest parts of labyrinths. However, no tradition exists regarding how the Ancient Magical Civilization met its end. Their superior achievements only appear as magic tools, extremely rarely.
“It’s a dead end up ahead! There’s a rock door, but it won’t budge!”
As I mused about the Ancient Magical Civilization, Shera-nee, who was scouting ahead, called out. At the end of the stairs was a small room with a rock door that seemed to lead further. I touched the door, but it wouldn’t budge. In the center of the single-piece rock door, there were two indentations, presumably handles, but they wouldn’t move when pushed, pulled, or lifted.
“Looking closely, there are some characters carved above the door.”
Upon re-examining the room, I noticed some characters carved into the wall above the door. They appeared to be from the Ancient Magical Civilization era, but even with my previous life’s knowledge, I couldn’t decipher them. Come to think of it, Liliana had read something similar for me on a previous occasion.
“Liliana, can you read this!?”
“This is difficult. I think it might be decorative script, an adaptation of Ancient Magical Civilization characters. It seems to say something like, ‘For those who wish for a Magical Princess… offer the Holy… fullness’.”
“What on earth could that mean?”
And so, we found ourselves at a standstill before the door.
“What on earth is a ‘Magical Princess’?”
“Does it simply mean a girl who is a magic user?”
“It’s a common theory that there were more mages in the Ancient Magical Civilization Era than there are now.”
“And what about ‘Holy fullness’? What in the world is that!”
“Hmm… this!”
Amidst the heated debates among the party members, Mai pointed to her own slightly developed chest.
“With Mai’s observation, if we re-examine, these two indentations are shaped like breasts after the completion of secondary sexual characteristics!”
Liliana, who had been meticulously examining the mysterious indentations on the door, exclaimed.
“So, we’re supposed to press our breasts against these indentations… What a scandalous mechanism!”
“I agree! Let’s go back, Liliana!!”
Elise and Ly, incensed by Liliana’s interpretation, voiced their objections. Several other party members were also blushing furiously.
“So, what shall we do? Should we give up and go back, Liliana?”
“Tirina, offer your breasts.”
“I… I can’t… it’s too embarrassing…”
Liliana, looking around at the party members, pointed to Tirna, whom she believed had breasts most similar to the shape of the door’s indentations.
“Tirina, please do it. Then Liliana will be satisfied.”
“Ly-sama… it’s embarrassing!”
“This is certainly a way to pass the time~.”
“I feel rather embarrassed too.”
Tirina, designated by Liliana, was extremely embarrassed but, after being persuaded by Ly, opened her chest and exposed her breasts. Tirna’s breasts, which I had thought were still childlike, had grown more than I expected, seemingly a bit larger than the indentations on the door. They were about the same size or even larger than Miralka’s, who underwent the ‘First Night Ritual’ last night, and appeared to be soft enough to eat.
“Ah ♡ It’s cold!”
*Pi-kon♪* *Gii-iiii…*
When Tirna hesitantly pressed her exposed breasts against the door’s indentations, a mechanical sound rang out, and the door opened. The darkness beyond was illuminated, revealing the interior structure.
Furthermore, a stone slab with densely carved text was placed at the entrance.
“Liliana, please read it. I can’t read this script.”
“Yes, Hal. Th-this is…”
Everyone watched as Liliana began the deciphering process.
According to Liliana, this place was a ‘Trial Chamber’ to measure aptitude for becoming a ‘Magical Princess.’ Each time a door was opened, it signified passing a test of aptitude. So, did Tirna unintentionally pass the aptitude test for ‘Magical Princess’? As far as I could see, she simply exposed her breasts and pressed them against the door’s indentations…
“Tirina, are you feeling alright?”
“Yes, I don’t feel any abnormalities. It was just embarrassing to expose my breasts in front of everyone, and I was surprised by the coldness of the door when I pressed my breasts against it.”
For now, I was relieved that Tirna was unharmed.
Liliana’s explanation continued. The various physical measurement equipment in this room seemed to be for assessing physical abilities. Passing the set values for each piece of equipment would apparently open the door to the next room. When we checked the equipment and their target values, it became clear that only those with exceptional physical abilities could pass.
However, there was also a shortcut, almost mocking any effort. It stated that if one passed by pressing their breasts against the door’s indentations, their aptitude as a ‘Magical Princess’ would be recognized. This implied that the physical measurement equipment with unreasonably high target values were just for show, and those with breasts that fit the indentations, like Tirna just did, could simply press them against it.
And this time, the indentation was for large breasts.
Among the party members with large breasts that would fit the deep indentations carved into the rock door were Elise, Dietlinde, and Liliana.
“I’ll pass. I can use all elemental magic, so I don’t need it.”
“I’m content with my Fire Spirit Magic.”
Elise and Dietlinde, sensing my intention from my gaze, declined. They were already accomplished mages and spirit mages, so they probably weren’t interested in the dubious title of ‘Magical Princess.’ As I thought this, Liliana boldly opened her chest and pressed her recently developed large breasts against the door’s indentation.
*Pi-kon♪* *Gii-iiii…*
“Ah, it opened! As expected of my large breasts!!”
Liliana, having successfully opened the door, was overjoyed.
“Liliana, I understand you’re happy, but that’s quite indecent. Please adjust your disheveled clothing.”
“Ly-sama, I’m sorry.”
Liliana, who had been hopping with joy, was admonished by Ly. She immediately regained her composure, blushing, and adjusted her clothes. Still, with all this talk of ‘Trial Chambers’ and ‘Magical Princess,’ I couldn’t help but blush.
Beyond the door opened by Liliana’s breasts, there was another stone slab.
According to Liliana’s deciphering, this time it was to test the applicant’s intelligence. The room, illuminated by lights, contained some suspicious devices. It seemed one had to choose from three options for the problems posed by these devices. There were 100 questions, and one mistake would result in disqualification and having to start over from the beginning.
This room also had a rock door leading to the next room, and it turned out that by fitting breasts into the indentation, one could pass without answering the questions. However, this indentation was very deep, likely requiring ‘explosive breasts’ or ‘demon breasts’ to fit. And the only party member who seemed to fit this was Ly.
“I-I will not do such a vulgar thing!”
Ly, her face bright red, retreated.
“Ly-sama, this is an opportunity. Why don’t you become a ‘Magical Princess’ with Tirna and me?”
There was an unusual situation where Ly was trying to escape, and Liliana was chasing after her.
“Ly, read the mood!”
“This is just a little game. Still, to think there’s no indentation that fits my breasts, it’s quite insulting.”
“Kya! Liliana, stop it!”
Then, with the support of Elise and Kirika, Ly, stripped from the waist up and exposing her large breasts, had them pressed against the door.
*Pi-kon♪* *Gii-iiii…*
Naturally, the door opened.
There was another stone slab, and inside the brightly lit room, there were trial equipment resembling a three-dimensional maze, but everyone ignored it and gathered before the next door.
“This indentation is for beautiful breasts. Why are there no doors for small breasts or flat chests?”
“Hmm… yeah!”
Kirika and Mai, who were indignant and crying tears of blood at the door, collapsed. In my assessment, Alicia or Freya might be suitable for this indentation.
“N-no! I don’t want to!”
This time, Alicia tried to escape but was inevitably caught by Ly and forced to expose her breasts.
“Alicia, you’ll go through the same thing as me.”
“Ly-sama, this is terrible. Eek! Stop it!”
“Alicia, it’s okay. It’s just a little embarrassing and a bit cold.”
“Hyan! It’s cold!”
Alicia, brought by Liliana and Ly, who had already experienced it, had her breasts pressed against the door’s indentation.
*Pi-kon♪* *Gii-iiii…*
The room beyond was a dead end. In the center of the room, a stone pedestal was set up, with a treasure chest placed upon it.
9. The [Treasure Map] Leads to the ‘Magical Princess’
I, Hal Harem Von Raymond, blushed and was perplexed. While I was recovering from my depleted Holy Aura, Tirna had taken on a job from the ‘Adventurer Guild,’ and as a bonus reward, she received a [Treasure Map] that pointed to the vertical shaft where the undead had roamed. The undead themselves had been led away by Salome-chan, who had evolved into a No-Life Princess, leaving the place an empty shell. However, beneath it lay ruins from the Ancient Magical Civilization Era.
Moreover, these ruins were unplundered and active.
A sturdy rock door blocked our path, but it opened with a strange sound when a pair of bare breasts that matched the indentation carved into it were pressed against it.
Ultimately, there were four rock doors, and Tirna, Liliana, Ly, and Alicia had to offer their bare breasts.
For now, we had reached the innermost room of the underground ruins, but the meaning of ‘Magical Princess’ remained unknown.
In the center of the room, there was a stone pedestal, on which a treasure chest was conspicuously placed. I wondered if the treasure related to the ‘Magical Princess’ was hidden within this chest. However, there was a possibility of a trap, so we needed to proceed with caution.
Looking around the room again, I saw an illustration of four beautiful girls using magic on one wall, accompanied by text. This script also appeared to be from the Ancient Magical Civilization Era, and I couldn’t read it. Among the party members, only Liliana could read it, so I decided to have her decipher it.
We could worry about the treasure chest later.
“Liliana, can you decipher the meaning of the illustration and the text on the wall?”
“Yes, Hal. This is—”
Liliana then explained the deciphered text. The illustration of the four beautiful girls using magic depicted, as expected, the so-called ‘Magical Princess.’ However, to me, they just looked like cute girls wielding various elemental magics. What was the difference from ordinary elemental mages?
The burning red-haired girl was likely casting a ‘Fireball.’ The girl with flowing blue hair was protecting everyone with a ‘Water Wall,’ the green-haired girl was firing a ‘Wind Arrow,’ and the black-haired girl was shooting a ‘Sand Arrow.’
These were all beginner-level elemental spells, and I saw nothing particularly unusual about them!
“Hal, it seems this facility is an advertisement for a magic tool workshop.”
“I had to expose my chest for an advertisement! Liliana!!”
“Th-that’s what it amounts to, Ly-sama. I also offered mine, so we’re even.”
“I was so embarrassed… and it was just for an advertisement… this is too much.”
“I was also very embarrassed.”
Liliana, the instigator of this whole affair, was defiant, while the embarrassed victims, Ly, Alicia, and Tirna, cornered her. The surrounding party members had various expressions, some confused, others relieved that they hadn’t been subjected to it.
Still, I had obtained astonishing information from a somewhat bewildered Liliana. But a facility for advertising a magic tool workshop… it was incredibly indecent.
“So, does it say something about the ‘Magical Princess’ or the magic tool workshop, Liliana?”
I asked Liliana with a puzzled expression.
“Hal, the name of the magic tool workshop appears to be ‘Original Chichikuri Workshop’.”
“What a… lewd name.”
“I’m glad I ran away.”
“Even I find that an unbelievably embarrassing name.”
“I… I… it’s embarrassing.”
Kirika, Freya, Dietlinde, and Alicia voiced their opinions upon hearing the suggestive, or rather, direct workshop name from Liliana, but none expressed any positive sentiment.
“It seems that the ‘Original Chichikuri Workshop’ believed that a maiden’s strong will resides in her breasts, and thus developed magic tools that convert breast fullness into magical power. That’s why they used the word ‘Chichikuri’ in the workshop’s name.”
“What can I say… it’s a workshop name that goes against public order and morals.”
“Perhaps they were more open about matters of sex back then compared to now.”
Still, the idea of converting the passionate feelings of maidens for their breasts into magical power was a rather vulgar and crude concept for an invention.
“And the name of the developed magic tools is the ‘Breast Magical Princess’ series. It says that the latest model of this series was placed here. These are—”
Liliana then explained the ‘Breast Magical Princess’ series. The magic tools were designed as hair accessories (barrettes) and became exclusive items for the registered user. In this case, the act of pressing bare breasts against the indentations to open the door directly served as the registration process, and the door would not react to incompatible bare breasts.
This meant that Tirna, Liliana, Ly, and Alicia, who had pressed their bare breasts against the doors to get here, each had a registered magic tool prepared for them. And it was likely that these magic tools were stored in the treasure chest.
It seemed that registered individuals would become ‘Magical Princesses’ capable of using the attribute magic imbued in their respective magic tools by converting their breast fullness into magical power. However, as they used magic, their breasts would gradually shrink. When in standby mode, they would absorb magic from the atmosphere and their breasts would swell again. Furthermore, by setting a ‘standard breast value,’ one could even adjust the maximum and minimum breast fullness.
“N-n-no way! But I still can’t accept that there were no doors for small breasts or flat chests!”
“Mmm! Yeah!”
Kirika and Mai, the ‘flat-chested’ members who had just learned that breast fullness could be controlled by magic tools, were furious. Perhaps the ‘Original Chichikuri Workshop,’ which adored breasts, had no interest in small ones. Or perhaps, there were magic tools for flat-chested or small-breasted individuals, but they weren’t placed in this promotional facility.
“Well then, I’ll open the treasure chest.”
“Be very careful when you open it, Liliana!”
“Hal, it’ll be alright.”
*Pakka, hyu-uu, shusa*
The moment Liliana opened the treasure chest, a blinding light erupted and scattered towards Tirna, Liliana, Ly, and Alicia, transforming into hair accessories when they landed on their hair.
Were these the magic tools from the ‘Breast Magical Princess’ series?
Looking at the hair accessories adorning their hair, Liliana’s was a pink heart-shaped one, Ly’s was a blue diamond-shaped rhombus, Alicia’s was a three-leafed green clover, and Tirna’s was a single-leafed black spade.
They closed their eyes, seemingly doing something. They were likely performing the detailed initial setup of the magic tools. After completing the initial setup, they explained the magic tools.
“My magic tool is called the ‘Flame ♡ Heart Barrette,’ and I can use ‘Fireball,’ ‘Fire Arrow,’ and ‘Fire Wall.’ Now I can be of use in combat!”
Liliana, smiling dreamily, looked satisfied. Her set standard breast value was, by the way, a secret. It also had a function to change into defensive clothing, called ‘
“My magic tool is called the ‘Water ♢ Diamond Barrette.’ The spells I can use are ‘Water Ball,’ ‘Water Arrow,’ and ‘Water Wall.’ To think I can now use offensive magic… Liliana, you did well. To be honest, my breasts have felt heavy recently, and my rapier’s sharpness has dulled, so this is a very welcome gift.”
Ly, who had been angry just moments ago, seemed happy about being able to use water attribute magic and adjust her breast size. However, Ly also stated that her standard breast value was a secret. For maidens, breast size was a significant secret. Ly also mentioned that she would seal the defensive attire ‘
“My magic tool is called the ‘Earth ♤ Spade Barrette.’ Like Ly-sama and Liliana-sama, I can use three types of earth attribute magic: ‘Sand Ball,’ ‘Sand Arrow,’ and ‘Sand Wall’.”
Next was Tirna’s explanation.
“Earth attribute magic for Tirna! By the way, does this magic tool also have a transformation function? I’d like to know more.”
“My… my case is called ‘
“It’s fine to explain it with words.”
“That’s right, it won’t hurt. Tell us, Tirna.”
I pressed for details about the transformed costume, and Elise, with a dark smile, egged me on. However, Tirna remained tight-lipped.
“My magic tool is called the ‘Wind ♧ Clover Barrette.’ Like everyone else, I can use wind attribute magic: ‘Wind Ball,’ ‘Wind Arrow,’ and ‘Wind Wall’.”
Lastly, Alicia explained. The three with solid bonds – Ly, Liliana, and Tirna – made it difficult to pry secrets from them, so perhaps Alicia was the most suitable for uncovering information. I was also very curious about how the standard breast values were set for the beautiful-breasted Tirna and Alicia.
“Alicia, will you tell me about your transformed costume and your set standard breast value?”
“Um, Hal. All I can say is that when transformed, I’ll be called ‘
I tried to press Alicia further, but it seemed her bond with her adoptive sisters was also strong, and she wouldn’t reveal anything.
“Why are those who have it favored further? Alicia and Tirna’s breasts seem to be growing. Why are there no tools for small breasts? I absolutely cannot accept this!”
“…Ugh…”
Kirika and Mai, the ‘flat-chested’ members, were teary-eyed as they listened to the explanations. However, I had no solution for this situation… Nevertheless, with the addition of the four who became ‘Magical Princesses’ by obtaining the ‘Breast Magical Princess’ series magic tools, the ‘Princess Harem’s’ combat power had unexpectedly increased.
“Hal, realistically speaking, we need to confirm how effective the ‘Breast Magical Princess’ series magic tools are.”
“I agree. Although they are beginner elemental magics, it seems like a significant increase in combat power. I’m really looking forward to it.”
“Even though I received strict guidance from Master Elise… to be able to use magic so easily…”
Elise, who had been listening to the explanations from the now ‘Magical Princesses,’ expressed her desire to confirm their combat effectiveness. Dietlinde, a fire spirit mage, agreed, but Eria, who had awakened her water attribute magic after joining the ‘Princess Harem,’ looked bewildered.
“Even if it’s beginner elemental magic, it’s no match for me!”
“That’s not true. I think you shouldn’t underestimate them.”
“I wish I had found an indentation that fit my breasts… what a shame.”
Sister Shera, who had a tough exterior, claimed it was merely beginner elemental magic, but Sharon looked on with envious eyes. Freya, who had also been fleeing, made a regretful face.
Afterward, to test the performance of the magic tools, we descended to the bottom of the vertical shaft where the undead had roamed. Swan Hilda was waiting for us at the ruins near the exit.
“Seems like you were up to something interesting while I was away.”
Swan Hilda seemed a little sulky.
“Thank you for your hard work, Swan Hilda. Did you safely deliver Miralka?”
“Absolutely. That youngster seemed satisfied too, so she should be fine for now. On my way back, Mercurynande and Esmeralda clung to me, and I had a hard time shaking them off. Also, I reported the Count Elgerblard family’s internal strife to ‘Bess-chan’ and got her approval. There’s no other working Valkyrie like me.”
Swan Hilda seemed to have been busy with various matters. With Swan Hilda joining us, we had the four who became ‘Magical Princesses’ conduct some practice shots of their magic, confirming their usefulness as regular beginner-level mages. Meanwhile, Holy Spirit Serena seemed to have had a difficult time purifying the foul odor and did not appear afterward.
10. First Night Xvii ①
The [Treasure Map] that Liliana found and Tirna used to complete the quest from the ‘Adventurer Guild’ turned out to be a success. Still, ‘Magical Princess’… even with my previous life’s memories, I had never heard of such an amazing magic tool.
Little is known about the Ancient Magical Civilization. Occasionally, magic tools are found in the deepest parts of labyrinths. These hold immense value, and royalty, nobles, and wealthy merchants purchase them, leading collectors to hoard them. Therefore, no one likely knows the full extent of the magic tools that have been discovered.
Still, for ordinary individuals to be able to use elemental magic…
This is something unimaginable today and a truly remarkable feat. However, I must say… converting the passionate feelings of maidens for their breasts into magical power is a bit… questionable, but undoubtedly amazing.
Ly, a master rapier swordsman, often served as a forefront fighter. However, after becoming a ‘Magical Princess’ and gaining the ability to use water attribute magic, she can now also serve as a rear-guard. By the way, Ly also found her large breasts to be a burden. Indeed, the breast-shaking during combat was notable, but she personally found it bothersome.
Tirina possesses extensive knowledge of aphrodisiacs and poisons, learned in the former Wahl Imperial Kingdom’s imperial harem, but in direct combat, she was always protected. Liliana also has a wealth of knowledge centered around ancient hero lore, but she was basically always protected. Alicia is similar; the three have been learning rapier from Ly and Dietlinde, but their skills are merely at the level of self-defense, not enough to confront powerful enemies.
Now, by becoming ‘Magical Princesses’ through this incident, they can serve as a rear-guard. The darkness of the former Wahl Imperial Kingdom is deep, and it’s certain that high-ranking demons like Barberu and his ally, the necromancer Zolgelge, are operating behind the scenes. Therefore, this windfall of increased combat power is very welcome.
After all, I myself am powerless in direct combat with ‘Healing Magic,’ ‘Resurrection Magic,’ and ‘Divine Blessing,’ so I need to rely on the ‘Princess Harem’ party members. While it is appropriate for each according to their abilities, as the only man in the ‘Princess Harem,’ it is a very embarrassing situation, but my abysmal combat ability hasn’t changed since my time as Lester the Cleric in my previous life.
With a change of heart, tomorrow we are scheduled to cross the old border gate and step into the former Wahl Imperial Kingdom’s territory. I need to be on my guard; otherwise, we might be caught off guard and suffer injuries or casualties. Tonight, I shall refresh myself to prepare for tomorrow.
Tonight again, I drift off to sleep in the luxurious canopy bed set up in the guest room of Elgerblard Castle.
*Ton, ton, ton*
“Is Hal still awake?”
As I was dozing in bed, the door was timidly knocked upon, and Tirna’s voice was heard.
“The key isn’t locked, so come in, Tirna.”
*Gacha, gii-ii…*
“Good evening, Hal. I brought some sleeping wine, would you like some?”
Tirna entered the bedroom, holding a silver tray with a glass of amber-colored sleeping wine poured into it. It’s unusual for Tirna to visit my bedroom at this hour.
At the time I rescued Tirna from Park-li’s mansion, she was only 13 years old, so I kept her away from night duty. Then, before I knew it, she turned 14. I knew her body was maturing, but since there was already a waiting list for night duty, I deliberately pretended not to notice. Last night, Miralca took advantage of that opening and made her move. She and Miralca completed the “First Night Ritual.”
Tonight, thinking about what comes after tomorrow, I had asked for the night duty to be excused, citing her recovery from illness.
I stole another glance at Tirna’s appearance. When I first rescued her, Tirna was a “bokko” with short hair and a boyish look. But now she calls herself “I” and has grown out her hair. Her lustrous brown hair now extends past her shoulders. Her complexion is slightly flushed, and her blue eyes, which seem to be looking for something, a hint of expectation, reflect only me.
This must be an expression of her anticipation for something.
As for her attire, she was wearing a pale lemon-colored negligee, as if she had grown a little bit, and I could see the swell of her breasts. Her breasts, which had only been slightly curved when I first rescued her, had become beautiful breasts in the meantime.
Tirna had served as Ly’s head maid, but when the Wahl Imperial Kingdom fell, she was demoted to a Level 2 Slave because her value as a noblewoman was deemed non-existent. She was then purchased by Park-li. Tirna was also a skilled cook, so I initially thought she was bought for her culinary talents. However, I discovered she was purchased as an ingredient, and we rescued her in the process of her preparation.
However, by that time, “Hair Removal Magic” had already completed the removal of all unwanted hair except for her head, and she was undergoing the removal of accumulated waste products in her digestive system with a special “Washing” magic.
Considering all this, it feels like a miracle that Tirna, now of age and looking like a beautiful girl, is standing before me.
“Tirna, you brought me a sleeping drink… That’s unusual.”
“I too have a desire to take care of you, Hal.”
Tirna, averting her gaze slightly in response to my question, seemed to be hiding something.
“Hey, Tirna. Isn’t there an aphrodisiac in this sleeping drink?”
“T-that’s not true.”
“Tirna, your face is bright red, and it’s obvious from your behavior!”
“I, I, I… I’m sorry, Hal. I really wanted you to embrace me.”
When I half-jokingly tested her, it turned out she had indeed put an aphrodisiac in the sleeping drink.
“Why would you do such a thing?”
“W-well… actually, the day before yesterday—”
Tirna’s confession was that the day before yesterday, while on a job from the Adventurer Guild to reject a political marriage candidate, she had let her guard down for a moment and was drugged with sleeping pills. When she awoke, she found herself stripped down to her panties, facing a crisis of chastity. She was saved at the last minute by the Holy Spirit Serena. At that time, she confessed, the thought that crossed her mind was her self-reproach for not being able to offer her virginity to me.
Therefore, she had laced the drink with an aphrodisiac tonight to ensure she could have the “First Night Ritual.”
“I see, Tirna. You’ve had a rough time too.”
“Please, Hal. Please, take my virginity!”
Tirna placed the silver tray with the sleeping drink on a nearby side table and bowed her head, making her request.
“Are you sure about this, Tirna?”
“Yes. Please, tonight.”
By circumstance, I found myself conducting the “First Night Ritual” for Tirna, following Miralca last night. It had been a while since I had deflowered a formal Party Member of the Princess Harem. Once the “First Night Ritual” was completed, Tirna would also join the ranks of those who served night duty. This meant she would have more opportunities to be intimate with me than Miralca, who was a quasi-Party Member. Considering future prospects, I wanted Tirna to ascend the path to adulthood comfortably.
“Sit on my lap, Tirna.”
“Y-yes, Hal.”
Getting up from the Bed, I sat on the edge of the Bed and gestured for her to sit on my lap. After a slight hesitation, Tirna tentatively placed her cute buttocks on my lap. I put my arms around her small frame and hugged her. As expected, even Tirna was stiff as a board.
While she might have received various teachings in the Wahl Imperial Kingdom’s inner palace knowledge-wise, she was a true virgin without practical experience. Sitting on my lap must have been nerve-wracking for her. And when she thought about being embraced and deflowered, her fear was palpable.
I patiently held her until her tension subsided.
“Your hair has grown quite long, Tirna.”
“Yes. Do I look a bit more like a girl now?”
“You were always a cute, beautiful girl, Tirna.”
“Ugh… I’m so embarrassed!”
When I praised her appearance, she became incredibly bashful. Perhaps her “bokko” phase was a dark history for her. I had heard before that due to the fall of her family, the Count Family of Theuser, she had worked while hiding her status. She implied that if she hadn’t been discovered by Ly, she might have fallen into ruin. Thus, she probably cut her hair, the symbol of a maiden, to make it easier to work.
Loosening my arms, I gently stroked her head with my right hand while moving my left arm slightly upward, lifting from beneath her breasts. Her breasts, which had been only slightly curved before, now had a firm, palpable feel. I could feel Tirna’s body maturing into a feminine form through her secondary sexual characteristics, which made me happy.
I’m not interested in fondling the breasts of girls who are too young, nor in forcibly spreading the legs of young girls to touch their tender labia. Therefore, I have a personal rule not to view girls under 14 as sexual objects. In the world we live in, the age of adulthood is 15. A 15-year-old girl is in the midst of her secondary sexual development
