It’s been five months since the last update (February 25, 2023). Time flies so fast. I actually started writing this last year, and finally, Episode 60 is complete. This will be delivered in 12 parts with split postings. From the next installment, I’ve scheduled it for automatic posting at 0:00 AM on Saturdays as usual.
It has been five days since I began staying at the mansion, which was originally the lord’s residence of the Marquis Bottox family but is now used by Count Hans Ignot Von Iglewaas, the provisional governor, for official duties and residence, as it was requisitioned by the Espana Imperial Army.
My stay has been unexpectedly extended.
Initially, my plan was to escort Glenda Shanti Von Iglewaas, the count’s daughter, who was a love-struck maiden and had been confiscating weapons to achieve her ambitions, back to her parents. After a courtesy visit to her father, Count Iglewaas, I was supposed to depart immediately for the Old Imperial Capital Ashurai.
However, the situation became complicated and bizarre around the time Seira Hyperion, the saintess of the Asgard Holy Church, and her bodyguard, Mariabel Ishante Hasshatitia, joined the “Princess Harem.” Mariabel, by the way, was a former princess who had fled from the Hasthatitia Kingdom, making her a Princess Knight as well.
Saintess Seira, in particular, is the sacred maiden who triggered the resurgence of my past life memories. I had assumed she had long since passed away. It is deeply moving that Seira, with whom I share such a profound connection, has come to me.
It became an urgent priority to acquire weapons and armor for Seira and the others. However, according to Zwei, our supply of rare materials has hit rock bottom. Amidst this, Ly informed me that a secret labyrinth apparently exists beneath the lord’s mansion.
Finding the entrance to the labyrinth was difficult, but the labyrinth itself existed. This labyrinth is a ruin from the Ancient Magical Civilization Era, named the “Marriage Proposal Dungeon.”
Although the “Marriage Proposal Dungeon” opened its entrance at my request, I was able to obtain the desired rare materials on the fifth floor. On the other hand, in the Master’s chamber on the sixth and lowest floor, Andromeda, a Macchiina Princess and Homunculus who had awakened as my ideal bride, was waiting.
After much struggle, Andromeda joined the “Princess Harem” to serve as a human shield for Saintess Seira. Officially, she is not a party member, merely a disposable human shield, but I suspect this will become increasingly blurred. Essentially, it depends on Andromeda’s performance.
At that time, Andromeda, being the “Master of the Labyrinth,” was a boss character. However, she was also in a captive state within the labyrinth, with a ridiculous system where suitors could take her out by breaking her virginity. So, I performed the “First Night Ritual” with her, with the other party members observing in full view.
Andromeda safely emerged from the “Marriage Proposal Dungeon,” but the party members have declared that they will never lend me out again. Also, as an extra, Andromeda received the rather anticlimactic nickname “Dame-chan.”
She looks like a near-perfect beautiful girl, and as her title “Macchiina Princess” suggests, she has a noble background as an artificial princess. Perhaps she was at a disadvantage against true princesses or imperial princesses. Or perhaps the cowlick was a flaw in her design.
Most likely, it was due to a severe lack of experience points. Attacking the Imperial Princess Ly head-on was a bad move.
From Andromeda’s explanation, it seems that most of the special traits unique to royal and imperial families were brought forth from the “Marriage Proposal Dungeon.” Andromeda mentioned Ly’s large breasts as one such trait, which upset Liliana and Tirna.
Regarding that special trait, Andromeda’s cowlick is quite pitiful. That’s why she’s “Dame-chan.”
Despite all this, Andromeda knows about demons. The knowledge she possesses likely originates from the Ancient Magical Civilization Era, and I am curious about what kind of knowledge she has. If she holds valuable knowledge, her worth would be immeasurable. I should also mention that Andromeda’s body was exquisite.
Riliana, who is enthusiastic about heroes and has a strong intellectual curiosity, doesn’t seem to realize it yet, but once she understands Andromeda’s true value, she will likely try to surround her. However, in reality, she is currently lacking calm judgment because our revered Imperial Princess Ly was disparaged.
Meanwhile, Elise, who has a special constitution and is the most senior party member, became jealous of Andromeda. Despite being with me for the longest, her opportunities for “night duty” have been extremely limited. Elise dedicated herself as the “Sealing Witch Princess” to maintain and strengthen the barrier preventing passage between the demon realm and the human world until her magic was depleted. Simultaneously, her “potbelly” miraculously flattened, revealing a beautiful, slender waist.
We are currently waiting for Elise’s magic to return. I myself need rest, having had my semen (ザーメン) drained by Andromeda and Elise.
While my own condition has recovered, Elise has only recovered enough to use basic magic, and she will need about three more days of recuperation. During this time, I plan to perform the “First Night Ritual” for Mariabel and Seira, and also teach Seira healing magic.
Therefore, I intend to perform Mariabel’s “First Night Ritual” tonight. This reminds me, Mariabel’s crotch was a dense jungle of pubic hair. I’m looking forward to shaving it, and I’m also eager to see a high-minded Holy Knight succumb to shame and display a lewd spectacle. Mariabel, who doesn’t know female pleasure, is in a way undoubtedly a princess from a sheltered home. I will awaken Mariabel’s hidden lust with my own hands.
As a result, will Mariabel become a pervert woman? I don’t think so. After all, the party members will likely cover for her.
Currently, Elise and Andromeda are the talk of the “Princess Harem.” On the other hand, Saintess Seira and Holy Knight Mariabel, who joined recently, are in a state of calm, seeming to be fitting in well.
Elise, one of the deputy leaders of the “Princess Harem,” is the most senior party member, and the flattening of her “potbelly” seems to have been a shocking event, like a bolt from the blue. Furthermore, her previously overbearing personality has transformed into that of a gentle lady. In truth, she is simply being quiet due to her magic being depleted.
Freya and Shera, who have a long-standing relationship with Elise, are surprised by her transformation. They seem to have judged this as an opportune moment and have started a suspicious new religion called the “Potbelly Shinto” to pray for the full revival of her “potbelly.” Their true intention seems to be to pave the way for the revival of “Pot-chan Elise” and her transformation into “Ponpoko Elise.” They are praying for the recovery of her “potbelly” at a bonfire altar in the courtyard, where logs are stacked in a grid. Freya and Shera dance and sing fervently, uttering incantations. The other party members are hanging back. Still, the fact that they are sneakily peeking indicates their high interest or perhaps a morbid curiosity.
“Pot-belly, pot-belly, ponponpon♪”
“Pot-belly, pot-belly, ponponpon♪”
“Swollen! Swollen! Ponponpon♪”
“Swollen! Swollen! Ponponpon♪”
“Elise without a pot-belly… is trash!!”
“A pot-belly should aim for ‘ponpokorin’~~♪”
“Pot-belly, pot-belly, ponponpon♪”
“Pot-belly, pot-belly, ponponpon♪”
“Pot-belly, pot-belly, ponponpon♪”
“Pot-belly, pot-belly, ponponpon♪ nano nano~~♪”
They are dancing while uttering these incantations. To outsiders, it looks like the prayer of heretics. Elise glares at the dance with a hateful expression, but currently, her magic is almost depleted, so she cannot retaliate. Freya and Shera, who should have the advantage, are not provoking further, considering the potential retaliation after their magic has returned. Still, Elise gives off an aura suggesting she might retaliate in some way.
Other than this, Elise is already furious about the shaving kit left in the bedroom. Freya and Shera are being too optimistic about the situation. The words that came from Elise’s mouth suggested a tragic outcome.
“Freya and Shera need a good spanking. I’ll shave them with the newly learned ‘Shaving Magic.’ I can already picture their pathetic pleas for mercy in the bathroom.”
Speaking of which, Kirika was measuring Elise’s body, who called herself “True Elise.” She claimed that Elise’s costumes were designed with the assumption that she had a “potbelly.” However, the true intention lies elsewhere. Freya and Shera indirectly requested the measurements, intending to have a “True Waist Nipper” made. Zwei will be making the “True Waist Nipper,” but Kirika, who enjoys making cosplay costumes, is more accustomed to taking measurements. Elise, who was already screaming when wearing the current waist nipper, one can only imagine what will happen when she wears the “True Waist Nipper.”
Furthermore, Liliana, while pretending to praise the now slender Elise’s abdomen, seems to strongly wish for the return of her “potbelly.” It seems she became insecure because her own stomach, being clumsy, was becoming rounder, second only to Pot-chan Elise. From my perspective, Liliana’s abdomen doesn’t even reach “chubby,” but it’s a concern for her. The hearts of maidens are troublesome, but perhaps she dislikes being compared to Ly’s well-toned abdomen.
In the “Princess Harem,” the members frequently bathe together, so physical secrets cannot be hidden. On the other hand, the busty Ly, due to moderate exercise, maintains a slender waist and a truly scandalous physique. While Ly’s physical condition is managed by Tirna, her former head maid, Liliana, fell prey to Elise’s evil influence and often indulged in eating out with her.
There was another shocking event for the other party members. It was that Elise learned “Shaving Magic.” In other words, “a knife to the…”. The declaration that she would shave Freya and Shera in the bathroom disrupted a certain power balance. Until then, I had exclusive use of “Shaving Magic,” but it is actually a versatile magic called “Life Magic” that anyone with sufficient magic can use.
The party members weren’t particularly interested in using “Shaving Magic,” but with Elise learning it, Shera and the others also learned it as a countermeasure. Elise’s magic has recovered to the point where she can use basic magic, and “Shaving Magic,” being a “Life Magic,” is usable in this state. Incidentally, the party members who can use magic are apparently modifying “Shaving Magic” in various ways. My “Shaving Magic” resulted in permanent hair removal, but it seems they have made it possible to achieve various states, from simple shaving to permanent hair removal. As a result, it’s a magic that can be used in various situations, from permanent hair removal of unwanted hair to care for delicate areas. While it is a joyous development to see the party members become more beautiful, my opportunities to use “Shaving Magic” have mostly vanished.
Even in this situation, Shera says she will allow me to perform shaving play in her “Shiera Elder Sister” form. At any rate, there are definitely more items in the bathroom.
Meanwhile, the remaining party members have gathered around Dame-chan, Andromeda. Andromeda, a homunculus created in the “Marriage Proposal Dungeon,” possesses a physique comparable to ours, befitting a relic of the Ancient Magical Civilization.
“Lady Andromeda, your attack method was unarmed combat, wasn’t it? Is it enough to just make armor?”
Zwei, the diligent craftsman, is asking Andromeda. Now that rare materials are available, the busiest person in the “Princess Harem” is Zwei, the only production-class member. Starting with the backlog of making a shovel for Swan Hilda, she has already made armor for Seira and weapons and armor for Mariabel, and now it’s Andromeda’s turn. Incidentally, the shovel, Swan Hilda’s first dedicated weapon, is apparently a masterpiece that won’t break even when she unleashes her Valkyrie powers. Joyfully, Swan Hilda named the shovel “Demon Slayer.”
Seira apparently increased the defensive power of her saintess outfit, but I don’t know the details. She also said she forged a dedicated knight’s sword for Mariabel while increasing the defensive power of her knight’s attire. And now it’s Andromeda’s turn, so an interview is underway.
Although Andromeda fought unarmed, it was thought that only armor would be made…
“The enemies we fight are demons and reeking undead, aren’t they? I cannot tolerate getting my hands dirty. I request a long-reach weapon.”
“Then, what kind of weapon do you desire?”
“Let me see… Considering maneuverability, I would like a short spear.”
“A short spear? We might barely have enough material. Then, what about armor?”
“As you expect me to serve as the vanguard, I request lightweight yet sturdy leather armor.”
“We can manage that as well.”
Thus, our preparations for departure are steadily progressing.
Thank you for reading.
