Volume 8 Chapter 5 Days As A King？ ＊
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Sigh…
We’re already a conspicuous group, and if we show up in full force, rumors are bound to spread…
”Your Excellency Kent, why do you look so down? Don’t tell me… you’re worried about your image as a king or something?!”
While the women noisily fussed over picking out underwear, one of them broke away from the group and came over to talk to me—
It was Est, the bureaucrat.
”Well, it’s not that I’m overly concerned, but I can’t help but wonder what the townsfolk would think if they saw their king entering a lingerie shop with a harem…”
”I imagine they’ll think that king would have his beautiful concubines in some scandalous lingerie. By the way, is this lingerie better for when I’m working in the office?”
As Est answered my question, she showed me the lingerie she had selected.
What she displayed were sheer black lace panties and a matching bra.
Est… the serious Est, choosing sheer black lingerie… she’s turned into a naughty girl… Of course, I think she would look good in it… but I kind of want Est to maintain her innocent charm…
I suppressed the inner turmoil and answered cheerfully.
”Est, white lingerie is best. The non-sheer kind is ideal. I think wearing sheer black in such a sacred workplace is inappropriate.”
Est looked at me with eyes that seemed to see right through my heart, much like Milly.
Unable to withstand her gaze, I turned my face away.
”Then it’s settled. Your Excellency Kent. I promise to wear it properly next time, so please take care of me.”
NOOOOOO!
Est!
Nooo!
No, that’s not it, but kind of it!
You’re not supposed to be that kind of girl!
If I find out you’re wearing sheer black panties in the office, there’s no choice but to pin you down!
I was in agony over Est’s words.
One of the trio of girls watching this scene, Layla, approached me.
”Your Excellency Kent, instead of someone like Est, why don’t you take a look at my lingerie? I picked one with slits so it’s easy to take off right away.”
Layla showed me the purple lingerie she had chosen with a look of joy on her face.
It had a slit in the crotch area, allowing for copulation while still worn.
The bra also had a slit at the nipple area, making it an excellent piece that could be accessed easily.
Layla is different!
I am happy, but it’s not quite right!
Normal underwear would be just fine!
I felt bewildered by the shape of the selected lingerie one after another.
Both were special types of underwear far removed from ordinary ones.
”Layla, it’s okay to keep it simple. Just normal. You can’t wear such underwear to the workplace, can you?”
”No problem at all! The workplace is just for His Excellency Kent to see, and I’ll change into something else while out on the field!”
Layla replied confidently without hesitation, her expression sharp.
In other words, it seemed to be underwear exclusively for the office.
I felt a sense of concern regarding how Layla and Est viewed me.
”Senior Layla, Senior Est, what do you think of His Excellency Kent! Please choose seriously! Since His Excellency has graciously allowed us to pick the lingerie for this reward, we should opt for something practical!”
It seemed that the youngest among us, Seema, would lecture the two older ones for their reckless choices.
Seema appeared to advocate for selecting something practical.
I hadn’t brought everyone along to buy lewd underwear, so I found myself hopeful at Seema’s words.
”That’s right. As Seema said, it would be appreciated if you picked something practical. Everyone, we will have a mountain of work waiting for us back at Estfort. So, which one did Seema choose?”
”This one!”
The lingerie Seema pulled out and showed me was like a micro bikini in fluorescent pink, barely covering the important parts.
Gazing at that underwear, I was hit with a shock that had me on the verge of being knocked out.
This isn’t what I meant… it’s not that direction… sure, it’s practical, but not in that way…
I found myself collapsing to the floor on my hands, overwhelmed by Seema’s choice of lingerie.
”I totally understand how everyone sees me. Please, just leave me be for a little while… sob sob.”
It was I who transformed these 3 serious-minded bureaucratic daughters, and yet, when erotica is brought to the fore, I can’t help but feel a poignant sadness in my heart──is it just my ego talking?
While the bureaucratic triplet dealt me a fatal blow, the rest of the women vied amongst themselves for new lingerie, each meticulously selecting their choices.
Incidentally, Lina, the representative of the flat-chested faction, was choosing a corrective undergarment hoping for a bust enhancement, but since she had little excess fat, the visual change was rather underwhelming.
After confirming this herself, she seemed to have given up on the purchase and settled for a sports bra and shorts instead.
As a man, I find the latter far more exciting than corrective underwear, but seeing how angry she looked, I decided to keep my thoughts to myself.
Moreover, Ines, the most well-endowed among the women I brought to the Capital City this time, had grown from an I-cup to a one-size larger, now fitting into a J-cup.
She had mentioned recently that her bra felt tight in the mornings, so this time, we had her remeasured to order a perfectly fitting bra from the maid.
Secretly striking a guts pose, I attributed Ines’s growth solely to my daily, unfailing morning massages.
As for Rossela and Rosana, the two I discovered in the Capital City this time, they had mistakenly followed us thinking they could get blacksmithing tools, but once they realized the shop was for lingerie, they tried to leave; however, Milly caught them, and they were dressed in all sorts of erotic undergarments.
At first, they resisted, but once they were made to wear various embarrassing pieces, the sisters ended up choosing an almost thread-like micro bikini.
They claimed their choice was for the practical reason that they could jump straight into the shower after sweating from their blacksmith work.
But let me assert,
If they were to enter the bath like that, I would undoubtedly pounce on them without fail.
Observing further, I noticed Aurelia had started to choose a shell bikini.
Of course, the backside was in a string-like fashion, offering a complete view of her bottom.
Catching my gaze, Aurelia blushed slightly and looked over at me.
”Lord Kent, if I wear something like this, will you… ravage me at the bathhouse or pool?”
I’m definitely going to pin you down and have my way with you… That’s cheating, Aurelia’s…
”Oh, oh, yeah. You’re right. If Aurelia were wandering around like that, it would be a mess. But, please keep that outfit for inside the mansion. Don’t show off to everyone, okay?”
Even though she’s a fallen noble, Aurelia, being raised as a young lady, I wasn’t sure if she had common sense, so I reminded her verbally.
”Oh, so just in front of Lord Kent? I want to be a match for Ane…”
Aurelia was trying on the clothes even for Ane, who was next to her, choosing her own outfit.
When Ane’s everyday clothes were taken off, her perfectly shaped breasts spilled out.
”Kyaa! Lady Aurelia! Please don’t undress me here! At least use the fitting room!”
Luckily, the store was staffed only by female employees, and since it was a private showing, Aurelia’s antics were tolerated.
But, if she got too carried away with her shopping, the female employees’ stares would pierce her.
”Oh, Aurelia. Let’s use the fitting room properly… Please. The shop assistants’ stares are killing me.”
”I guess I got a little carried away. I got so excited when Lord Kent said he’d give me a present.”
Aurelia was a little embarrassed, but after a few seconds of reflection, she snatched Ane’s clothes again and tried to put matching underwear on herself.
Thus, the shopping trip at the lingerie store continued until the evening.
When the women who came with them paid for their purchases, the total came to more than 9 gold coins.
Phew, I managed to pay for it with my pocket money… indeed, lingerie is formidable.
It’s just as practical.
I was sweating from the unexpected price, but since I had already said I’d pay with my pocket money, I couldn’t ask Helga to take it from the Blackdagger family treasury.
So, I used the funds that had been transferred to my personal account from my card.
The women who received the lingerie invaded my bed that night wearing their new purchases, so I welcomed them with all my might.

*Aldo’s Perspective
”Young Lord, Poplar has returned.”
Having finished my work and eaten dinner, I was intrigued by the elder’s report.
”Wow, you were fast. You were being chased by Kent’s organization, right? Glad you’re safe.”
Poplar is a free-spirited patron with a knack for getting things done, but isn’t technically under my command.
He had recently snuck into Kent’s house, infuriating Ms. Miriallia, and it was said that succubi had been spotted searching for him in Capital City.
”Yes, it seems you were hiding out in the East.”
As I was listening to the old man’s report, a portly man with the air of a trader materialized before me.
”I’m back. Your rise to power, young lord, fills me with joy. While I was resting in the East, I picked up a rather interesting story and thought I’d bring it to you in the Capital City.”
”Is that so. You managed to slip through the Blackdagger family’s grasp. Kent doesn’t seem to mind, but Dream Demon Clan leader, Ms. Miriallia, has put a bounty on your head, you know. Be careful. Even with your talent, you’d be in trouble if you caught the ire of the Dream Demon’s Assassination Squad and the Dorman family’s guards.”
”The Dorman family’s guards are formidable, but the Dream Demon’s Assassination Squad is currently in disarray, so it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.”
Poplar dismissed my warning with ease.
It was the statement of someone with absolute confidence and pride in their abilities.
I had to admit, though, hearing that the Dream Demon’s Assassination Squad was in turmoil was news to me.
Though I, too, belong to the Dream Demon Clan, I knew that things weren’t quite right between Yuri, the recluse, and Clan Leader Miriallia, but I hadn’t thought it had reached a breaking point.
”How does Poplar know so much about the Dream Demon Clan’s inner workings? Surely he didn’t peek into their hidden village?”
I couldn’t help but wonder if Poplar, driven by curiosity, had snuck into the Dream Demon’s hidden village for some intelligence gathering.
Poplar met my gaze with a sly grin.
”Leave your imaginings to me. It was truly a pleasure to behold the village of such a beautiful race. A feast for the eyes.”
Leave it to your imagination… or rather, you haven’t seen anything yet.
This is an absolute must-see.
”Well, never mind. We mustn’t overstimulate Her Majesty Yuri. Besides, aren’t you going to share the information you’ve gathered from the east?”
”Indeed, that was the main issue. Have you heard that Nokin Wolffang has sent an expeditionary force to the northeastern region?”
”Yes, His Majesty was informed by an emissary from the Garuda Principality. There’s also an imperial edict to reclaim many territories left lordless by Gertroud’s rebellion. They must have dispatched the army in response to that.”
”Indeed, Nokin has successfully seized control of most of Schuwelt Ostenfort in just a few weeks. However, there have been peculiar movements in various parts of the northeast. The remnants of the Demon God Emperor nation and a Thief guild have joined hands to start crushing smaller powers. The ‘God’s Soldiers,’ a remnant of the Demon God Emperor nation that wasn’t particularly prominent before, and ‘Blazing Fire,’ an organized group of bandits, have merged. It seems they’ve begun absorbing surrounding powers and growing rapidly.”
”God’s Soldiers and Blazing Fire. Have their leaders changed?”
”No, ‘God’s Soldiers’ still has Stefan Schuwelt at its helm, and ‘Blazing Fire’ remains under Marselo.”
If the two groups have merged and started expanding their power suddenly without a change in leadership, it suggests that another factor is at play.
”Then, could they have found a supporter? At present, Gwain is the most likely candidate. I suppose he’s providing financial aid or lending manpower. What do you think?”
Poplar maintained a sly expression without faltering.
”As expected of you, young master. You can deduce the situation even without my report. Just as you suspected, the two organizations have merged to form the ‘Kingdom Liberation Front,’ with Gwain’s daughter, Austronesia, taking the lead. They claim to seek independence from the Kingdom, but in reality, they are pushing for… not True Demon Dukedom’s territorialization, but Gwain’s.”
The information brought forth by Poplar was truly astonishing.
Given this fact, it could be interpreted that Gwain was inclined to crush the Kingdom by sheer force.
True Demon Prince Rashid would likely assist Gwain, and if they were to gain a new territory in the northeast, they would amass considerable military strength by combining it with the forces from the seceded northern regions.
The Kingdom’s army, currently being reorganized by Arbalest, was making little progress due to the Noble’s resistance, and they had to position troops in the withdrawn Black Dragon Dukedom to the west, which meant that if Gwain attacked with a large army, it seemed they would fall into the trap of besieging the Capital City once more.
”That’s… quite troublesome. I wonder if there’s any way to deal with this. We can’t let the ‘Kingdom Liberation Front’ run rampant…”
”Should I kidnap Austronesia and toss her into Lord Blackdagger’s bedroom?”
Poplar seemed to have concocted a mischievous idea.
”…that sounds amusing, but it would turn Ms. Miriallia into an enemy. Gwain would surely explode with rage. The only one who would rejoice would be Kent, who got a cute girl. I’d rather not be scolded over something like that, so I’ll have to decline. It seems I’ll have to use the guests lounging around my house to form a counter organization against the ‘Kingdom Liberation Front.’ Knowing Poplar, I assume you’ve already lined them up?”
”Young Master is quick to act. I’m already in talks with several local vigilante groups. Also, may I borrow Lady Karen? Of course, I’ll have her participate as a citizen without her military uniform, but I’d like to have Duke Nio join us as well.”
For the establishment of the counter organization, Poplar had appointed Karen Scarlet, my childhood friend and the daughter of the ancient vassal family of the Dracul house, along with Duke Nio, a former champion of the Capital City Martial Arts Festival.
Currently, Karen was a succubus-type woman acting as my bodyguard.
Generations of the Scarlet family had taken on the role of guardians for the Dracul house, and she was a notorious woman bearing the epithet of ‘Crimson,’ a celebrated Warrior feared for her unmatched strength.
Nioh, a prodigy who became the champion of the unarmed division at the Capital City Martial Arts Festival at the age of 20, had once been a skilled warrior.
However, after rigorous training that forbade women until he turned 20, Nioh, a novice, was enthralled by the softness and texture of a woman’s breast at the victory banquet.
He abandoned his position as a white-blade combat instructor for the Kingdom army and became an unconventional masseur.
He openly declared that the female breast was a fascinating subject of study.
”Karen and Nioh… Karen is someone I can persuade, but Nioh won’t budge from his opinion?”
”Lord Nioh already has permission. After all, we made a promise to let him freely study breast massages on local women. He gave an immediate affirmative response. He’s reportedly studying Minotaur women recently.”
It seemed Nioh had already been swayed by Poplar’s words.
It was thought that Poplar intended to elevate Nioh to the position of leader of the rival organization.
Nioh had a handsome face and a masculine build.
He was generally taciturn about everything except breasts, making him a charismatic man.
Coupled with his exceptional combat ability, he was undoubtedly a carefully chosen recruit.
”Well, then, no problem. Just make sure you tell the local women not to cause any trouble. Nioh is only interested in ‘breasts’,”
”Understood. Also, Lady Karen will be in command of the army. While I don’t expect her to lose in any event, I will order her to withdraw if things get dangerous.”
Karen commanded my private army and also served as commander of the Dracul family’s private army.
However, since the private army was scheduled to be incorporated into the Kingdom army, she was currently only performing security duties.
I believed she would handle the command expertly, and with her own martial skills, she could defeat a small number of enemies.
With Poplar’s information gathering abilities, I thought they would be able to withstand even a large army, barring a massive assault.
”Got it. I’ll let Karen know. What will you call the rival organization? Also, when the Kingdom’s power recovers, will you absorb the organization?”
”Let’s call the organization ‘Kingdom Retro Brigade.’ Once Kingdom has settled down, you’re welcome to absorb it. It’s an organization meant to counteract Gwain’s expansion.”
Poplar replied with the casual ease of someone engaging in a pastime to kill time.
”Regarding funds, I’ll set up a secret budget under the Chancellor’s authority. It’s just the Dracul family’s contribution, but feel free to use as much as you like. Just don’t overdo it, or you’ll have an elder sent to deal with you.”
Upon hearing that spending too much would dispatch an elder, the relaxed smile on Poplar’s face faded, replaced by a sense of urgency.
Even as a free agent, Poplar had a particular aversion to elders.
”Poplar, as the custodian of the young master’s funds, we expect results befitting the investment. Foo foo foo.”
”I apologize if I end up getting disciplined by the elder, but I’ll do my best to avoid it.”
Thus, the ‘Kingdom Retro Brigade’ was established as an organization to counter Gwain’s ‘Kingdom Liberation Front,’ and in the northeastern region, a proxy war between the True Demon Dukedom and the True Demon Kingdom broke out.
