I apologize for the long gap since the previous post (May 13, 2020).
Episode 54 will be divided into 12 parts, and due to a lack of writing time, it will be released every Saturday at midnight.
Please note that episode 54-1 is delayed and will be released immediately.
I, Hal Harem Von Raymond, couldn’t stop breaking out in a cold sweat.
How did it come to this?
Only Elise and Lyushenne were supposed to have reasons not to want to go to the city of Karamia.
More precisely, Liliana and Tirna also seemed reluctant.
To explain the current situation, Elise was clinging to my right arm, and Lyushenne to my left.
My right arm was sandwiched between the deep cleavage of Elise’s large breasts, and my left arm was in the canyon of Lyushenne’s even larger breasts.
In any other situation, this would be a blissful harem play, a man’s dream.
However, I personally prefer a quiet, intimate relationship with one beautiful girl over a harem with multiple beautiful girls.
Especially the Party Members of “Princess Harem” tend to transform into “predatory women” when they gather, which is dangerous.
It seems my thoughts have strayed.
Although both Elise’s and Lyushenne’s magnificent breasts are incredibly soft, they are firm, warm, and convey an exquisite touch through their clothes. I can clearly feel the rapid beat of their hearts and their breaths.
Normally, the raw touch of beautiful girls should be pleasant.
Furthermore, perhaps due to nervousness, their breasts are sweaty and feel intensely real.
And while this might sound like having the best of both worlds…
“Pokko Lise… you’ve made your belly even uglier with more unsightly fat than before. Despite the shameful extinction of my homeland, the Kingdom of Portland, as the Crown Prince, you’ve been living comfortably as an adventurer…”
“Elder Sister Freeza, I have my own struggles, you know.”
“Silence! What struggles do you have with that ‘potbelly’?”
“My struggles have nothing to do with the size of my belly! Besides, this is to store magic for a certain reason.”
“You’ve become quite arrogant since I last saw you. You claimed the waist nippers I gave you broke, but if you intended to flatten your stomach, you would have bought new ones, wouldn’t you? Yet, in reality, it’s expanded unchecked. It’s a ‘potbelly’ that makes me want to kill you. As your sister, I’m ashamed, and I want to shave off that ‘usurping fat’ with my ice magic…”
“Hiiiii! P-please spare me, Elder Sister Freeza.”
*Poke, poke*
“Kyaa! E-Elena!! Don’t poke my bellyyyy~~!”
“Pokko Lise Auntie’s belly sinks in so much when you poke it. Has it evolved, or rather, has it deteriorated this much? Maybe I should call you ‘Bokko Lise Auntie’ instead?”
“How dare you say such things to the great Elder Sister Elise! Show me your parents…”
“Bokko Lise, your daughter’s statement is valid. If you have any complaints, take them up with me directly.”
“…. I don’t.”
Opposite Elise sat her sister, Vicomtesse Freeza Loloa von Yagutska, scolding her for her slovenly ‘potbelly,’ while Elise’s protruding stomach was being poked by her niece, Viscount’s Daughter Elena Rondo Von Yagutska.
Elise, who usually does as she pleases as the vice-leader of “Princess Harem,” seemed to be no match for her sister and niece.
Freyja and Shera might be smirking at the revelation of Elise’s new weakness.
At least they won’t miss the chance to tease her.
On the other hand, perhaps they are envious that close relatives have survived.
“Knowing that Lyushenne is alive, I have been waiting for you with bated breath… yet you intend to bypass the city of Karamia… kukukuku.”
The Former Viscount Marquis Bottox, perhaps overcome with emotion, began to shed man tears mid-sentence.
Looking at him like this, one might mistake them for a master and a loyal retainer, one of whom has been wronged…
“Old man, you should have retired comfortably since you’re getting old. Is it ‘villains have good luck’ or ‘the cold water of old age’… And I can see through your fake tears.”
Lyushenne, unfazed, dismissed his tears as fake.
For a moment, the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox put on an awkward expression, but then he turned serious and began to explain.
This old man is indeed a tricky one.
Before that, according to what Liliana heard, he boasted that by massaging a woman’s buttocks, one could determine her health and identity. What a bizarre individual residing in the high society of the Wahl Imperial Kingdom.
It’s understandable why Lyushenne was trying to avoid him.
“Recently, I handed over my Marquisate to my son and was living in comfortable retirement… However, due to the invasion of the despicable Espana bastards, my son was unfortunately killed in action, and I went underground. I’ve been making my own judgments about the situation, taking inspiration from the renowned strategist among the Eastern Nations, Master Furuyuu.”
“I thought you were secretly working to support Duke Prince Daba Dabat Von Dark Horse…”
“I cannot entrust the glorious throne of the Wahl Imperial Kingdom to such a commoner. Although there seem to be many followers gathering around him… To me, he seems nothing more than a stepping stone to ruin.”
“Indeed, Daba is not very capable on land, but he is the only one officially recognized as surviving from the Wahl Imperial Family. And isn’t it easier to carry a lighter palanquin? However, if I were to stand up, I’m confident I could disperse those surrounding him.”
“Certainly, that might be a part of the truth. At the very least, if Daba ascends the throne, the Wahl Imperial Kingdom will be completely finished. I implore Your Highness to swiftly show her continued presence to her subjects… I beg of you.”
“I completely agree with your opinion, old man… However, I also have my own plans and schedules. I felt the need to meet you, old man, but…”
Lyushenne’s words sounded rather indecisive.
“Then why are you trying to avoid me?”
“I have expectations for your political skills, old man… but whenever we meet, you rub my backside.”
“That is a ‘minor matter preceding important ones,’ a trivial issue. Besides, it’s said, ‘Hide your head and not your tail.’ By touching Your Highness’s noble backside, I can confirm it is you.”
“I don’t like having my backside massaged!”
“What, you’ll get used to it. Become a person of such stature that you allow your subordinates to massage your backside. Besides, by massaging your backside, it will become a large, childbirth-friendly backside.”
“I absolutely refuse. I will never forget this humiliation of having my backside massaged in Wahl’s high society!”
Opposite Lyushenne sat the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox, weeping in a tragic scene.
No, since it’s a reunion rather than a parting from his master, perhaps it’s simply a scene of chaos.
And it was understandable that the other attendees fled from the chaotic carriage.
Originally, I wanted to avoid this too, but when I was taken into the carriage, Elise and Lyushenne conspired and dragged me along.
Incidentally, Liliana, who is acquainted with—or rather, has a connection with—the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox, managed to escape.
And she silenced the loyal Tirna, who was trying to help Lyushenne, to prevent her from speaking any unnecessary words.
Although Liliana usually has a gentle demeanor as a noble princess, her actions towards the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox were swift.
Liliana must have received the baptism of buttock massage in Wahl’s high society as well.
Even though the Yangas Kingdom is an ally of the Espana Imperial Kingdom, it seems they have extended their poisonous fangs even to the princesses of other countries…
The Former Viscount Marquis Bottox is indeed terrifying!
Currently, our “Princess Harem” party is following the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox’s carriage towards the city of Karamia.
More accurately, their original mansion has been confiscated by the Espana Imperial Army, so they are heading to a discreet mansion in the suburbs.
Our original plan was to bypass the city of Karamia and head to the Imperial Capital Ashurai via Misty Ra Village.
And since I, Elise, and Lyushenne were absent, Tsuyii, judging that the canopy seat, which easily attracts attention, was no longer necessary, quickly dismantled it and gathered the materials.
At that time, he was making good use of Ain, not to mention Dry and Fear in their Mimic slime form.
Ain, who has a day’s head start in humanization, seems to have been at a disadvantage by choosing a flashy offensive mage.
Zwei, who was originally a Mimic slime, but was content to be Ain’s sister, was wise to choose a production role that wasn’t filled in “Princess Harem.”
I was escaping reality again, but to avoid causing myself trouble, I silently offered my arms to Elise and Lyushenne.
Mentally, I felt like mere decoration.
“By the way, Pokko Lise, who is this boy clinging to you so shamelessly? You have no decorum as royalty or any common sense.”
“Lady Lyushenne, I’ve been concerned about this unimpressive-looking young man next to you since a while ago. It’s reckless to have a young man of unknown origin by your side, despite being the royal body that will carry the throne.”
“He’s Hal-sama!”
“He is Hal-sama!”
Although I had been quiet inside the carriage, my presence naturally became visible…
Vicomtesse Yagutska and the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox asked Elise and Lyushenne about me almost simultaneously.
In response, Elise and Lyushenne, despite being caught off guard and without any prior coordination, harmonized perfectly.
“I, uh, my name is Hal Harem Von Raymond. I am the young master of the Raymond Trading Company, which runs a slave trade business, and the Party Leader of the adventurer party “Princess Harem.” I have also been awarded the rank of First-Class Quasi-Noble by the Espana Imperial Kingdom for a certain achievement. Please, I look forward to your kind consideration.”
While hastily introducing myself, overlapping Elise and Lyushenne’s introductions, I seemed to have been too honest in my impromptu response. Suddenly, the faces of Vicomtesse Yagutska and the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox became stern.
The information that I was made a quasi-noble by the enemy, the Espana Imperial Kingdom, was problematic at this moment, but it was now impossible to retract my words.
This is what is called a “tongue slip.”
Conversely, it means I was extremely nervous.
It seems I, too, was overwhelmed by the strange atmosphere of the situation.
“Are you some kind of spy for Espana? If so, you’ve seduced my foolish sister, haven’t you?! If you confess honestly, I’ll gently sever your head with my blade of ice.”
In response to my introduction, Vicomtesse Yagutska pierced me with a sharp gaze as if I were her sworn enemy.
And the temperature in the carriage suddenly dropped!?
Isn’t this a bit of a bad situation!?
“The fool who touched Lady Lyushenne’s royal body must be dealt with. Moreover, if he’s a pawn of Espana, I won’t show any mercy.”
Furthermore, the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox, without hiding his menacing aura, reached for the hilt of the sword he wore at his hip.
Is this… are they going to execute me for disrespect?
The chaotic carriage is turning into an even more chaotic scene.
At the same time, I am keenly feeling the danger to my life.
“Elder Sister Freeza, you mustn’t do anything terrible to Hal, who saved my life!”
“Old man, do not strike him down. Hal-sama is my savior.”
In the carriage, which had instantly become murderous, Elise and Lyushenne shielded me.
In a moment, both of them threw themselves forward and hugged me.
Their actions left Vicomtesse Yagutska and the Former Viscount Marquis Bottox stunned.
Thank you for reading.
Episode 54-2, “Swan Hilda in Danger!?” is scheduled for pre-publication on February 6th at 0:00.
