Volume 9 Chapter 29 A Moment with the Lovers


Edited by: Kanaa-senpai


 After Liese and the rest of the First Blood party left, I spent some time with the Lovers, then stepped out to clear the path. I flew using Wind Magic instead of running, to avoid being noticed.


 For humans, unlike bird-people, flying requires fairly high-level Wind Magic Skills. As I caught up and observed from the air, Nicola noticed me and looked my way, so I panicked and pretended to be a bird-person. Somehow, I managed to fool her, but as expected from a Scout.


 Clearing the path meant thinning out monsters near the town streets, mainly wolves, and for some reason, bandits too. Bandits shouldn’t really be near the Royal Capital, yet they appeared here, just like in my time. Their shabby gear and stench screamed “bandits.” I wanted to wash them off thoroughly but held back.


 I judged who to thin out using intuitive Skills. Battles with bandits can’t always be avoided, and I thought it would be good experience, so I didn’t kill them all.


 Afterward, as promised with the veteran group including Ines, I returned without overextending myself and went to the dungeon normally. It’s Mind, but I chose to trust it. I can’t always protect them forever. I gave them Magic Items for emergency contact, so I deliberately didn’t worry too much. To help them become independent, I need to get used to this too.


 For the next few days, I spent the daytime in the dungeon and nights with the Lovers. Ines and Sylvie weren’t in the rotation, but I spent nights with the other loves (except Clarissa-san).


* * *


 Juliet is secretly a spoiled one, so when we’re alone, she quickly shows her Dere side. If only Ines and Sylvie are around, she’s relatively honest, but she doesn’t want other girls to see. Afterward, in bed, I stroked Juliet lying next to me.


 ”…You seem like you want to say something?”


 ”I just think spoiled Juliet is cute.”


 ”Sorry for not being honest.”


 ”I like strong-willed Juliet too, though.”


 ”…Hmph.”


 Her words were prickly, but she buried her head in my chest, her ears twitched happily, and her tail wrapped around my leg. When I pulled her close, she hugged tightly. Her chest (rocket) pressed against me, putting me on high alert.


 ”Even though you released so much earlier, it’s still not enough?”


 ”It’s because Juliet’s breasts are wonderful, so it can’t be helped.”


 ”…I guess it can’t be helped. One more time, then.”


 ”Please.”


 ”Too soon, you pervert.”


 ”You didn’t dislike it?”


 ”I never said I disliked it, you idiot… nn♡”


 I kissed Juliet, whose face was waiting for it. The night was still long.


* * *


 The next day was Meta’s turn. The start was always in the bath. The reason is…


 ”Then, shall we start?”


 ”Yes, Daisuke-sama♡ I would like you to do shaving play for me today as well♡”


 ”Meta is proactive about this. I think it’s good.”


 ”Thank you very much♡”


 It always starts with shaving play. I don’t know the reason, but she seems to like it more than me. It doesn’t happen every day, maybe once a week, so she manages herself to some extent. From the second time onward, she has been proactive, always wanting to serve. She likes fellatio, paizuri, and the cowgirl position. Of course, she likes other positions too.


 ”Meta’s breasts are soft and feel good to touch.”


 ”Ahn♡ Thank you♡”


 ”Did your previous husband like breasts?”


 ”To some extent, I suppose. But he was bad at it, so it just hurt. I never felt pleasure.”


 ”Then I have to gently massage them and make you feel good.”


 ”Yes♡ Please♡”


 Meta seems to have gotten over her previous husband. Talking about him is fine. It even seems to make her more In Heat. Poor ex-husband. Now he is just a spice in her mind.


* * *


 With the First Blood five absent, Vanessa might have been the most relaxed. Nicola is a cute kouhai, but she seems to try to meet expectations or avoid breaking illusions, being careful to some extent.


 ”I’m not that capable, but when I get those sparkling looks…”


 ”Ah, I understand that.”


 It’s obvious even from the side that Nicola purely admires Vanessa. Vanessa, being around twenty, is still growing as an Adventurer. Even if she doesn’t want to be spoiled, bearing expectations might be heavy.


 ”Daisuke, rather than that, entertain me now.”


 ”Of course. We’ll go until morning, right?”


 ”Heh, that’s the spirit♡”


 Vanessa is quite erotic too. She’s relatively open, so there’s no damp lewdness, but she invites freely even if others are present. In the house, she doesn’t hesitate for deep kisses. Watching this, she probably teases the more shy ones like Ines and Juliet.


* * *


 Although we don’t live together, I went on a date with Clarissa-san after work. It’s a once-a-week Blue Day date.


 ”Those cute Camilla-chan girls are becoming D-rank too, right?”


 ”Yes, they’re still in progress, but I think it’ll be fine.”


 We also meet on Yellow Day, but no date then. It’s better for them to enjoy without hesitation on their day off, and I have an appointment with Regina-san as well. Clarissa-san knew Liese and the others before becoming my lover. She’s D-rank, considered a fully-fledged Adventurer, but Camilla looks young, which was a little concerning. However, Camilla can use Fire Magic and illusions, making her strong against both people and monsters. Only her MP running out is slightly worrying, but I gave her Magic Items for that, so it should be fine.


 ”This job doesn’t suit me, so I respect you.”


 ”Clarissa-san’s work is wonderful too, so no need to belittle yourself.”


 ”Oh, thank you♪ Then I need to work harder.”


 ”I think moderate effort is fine. Don’t overdo it.”


 ”Understood. I also shouldn’t distract Daisuke-san too much♪”


 I felt healed by Clarissa-san’s bright smile. A truly beautiful older sister, I never get tired of watching her. Liese and the others wouldn’t be fit as librarians. Ilse would probably fall asleep, and Grete, a social powerhouse, might manage but prefers physical work. Whether killing monsters counts as “physical work” is questionable from my Previous Life sense.


 ”Daisuke-san, thank you for always giving me meals and presents.”


 ”Well, you don’t have to worry, but I’d be glad if you said ‘thank you’ since it’s a special occasion.”


 ”I see… thank you, Daisuke-san♡”


 I kissed blushing, shy Clarissa-san. I hope I can help ease her complexes.


* * *


 Regina-san, my lover, still hasn’t moved in. She has various work handovers to complete, so she can’t leave the brothel lodgings yet. For that reason, I go to see her at the brothel Daydream (BSS).


 Although we’ve become lovers, I can’t wait to live together.


 ”Oh, thank you ♡ But I still have obligations to fulfill, so please wait a little longer,” Regina-san said.


 ”I understand,” I replied.


 While casually chatting, we took a shower. Regina-san, as always, had an amazing figure that made me admire her—not the chaotic kind of story, that’s old news. Especially her chest! Large breasts tend to sag, but she seemed never to skip training to maintain them. You could also tell she didn’t neglect her hips, stomach, or other areas. That’s why I loved her so much.


 ”Rita and Nora said they want to see Daisuke-kun,” Regina-san said.


 ”Ah, yes, they’ll come visit soon,” I replied.


 ”Don’t worry about me; please care for those girls as well,” she said.


 ”Yes,” I answered.


 Regina-san’s colleagues—or rather, her kouhai prostitutes—were competitive Rita and gentle Nora. I had become friendly with them, but now that I was Regina-san’s lover, I was thinking of stopping my visits to this shop. They were popular, so my absence probably wouldn’t be an issue, but I still needed to consider what to do going forward.


* * *


 It had been since the Martial Arts Tournament, but I also dealt with Gerta and Elisa. With Elisa it was fine, but bringing Gerta’s scent home would bother Camilla, so normally I’d have to take a careful shower afterward. Camilla was absent now, so it should be fine.


 ”So, you’re active on the seventeenth floor after all,” I said.


 ”Yeah. We’re a bit underpowered to advance further, but going back is too inefficient for experience. Earnings on the seventeenth floor are low, but it’s not unlivable,” he replied.


 ”I see. The seventeenth floor has sandworms and gargoyles, right? Be careful,” I warned.


 ”No problem,” he said confidently.


 He looked confident, so Gerta’s Beast Fang party seemed to be doing well as Adventurers. Elisa, on the other hand, was an Adventurer but mainly Gerta’s slave and porter. I had never seen her fight, but apparently she used a whip. Imagining it… somehow, it suited her oddly well.


 ”Daisuke-sama’s slaves are being promoted to D-rank… I’m jealous,” Elisa said.


 ”Oh? Elisa wants to become stronger too?” I asked.


 ”Yes, as levels rise, endurance increases,” she replied.


 ”Ah, yes, that’s right,” I said.


 Elisa’s reference to endurance was likely sexual. Indeed, her endurance had been steadily increasing with level-ups, and her rest periods were shortening…


 ”Now, let’s continue ♡ Starting with serving here… ♡” Elisa said.


 ”Yes,” I replied.


 Elisa was a horse-type Beastman… a certain type of girl, but she had incredible sexual desire and stamina. I wondered if succubi were even stronger than this.


* * *


 Although I hadn’t slept with them, I had hugged and kissed Ines and Sylvie. Ines-chan was lonely, and Sylvie was endlessly curious.


 ”I don’t intend to be a spoiled child…” Ines said.


 ”Then you don’t want it?” I asked.


 ”…I’ll do it. Don’t be mean,” she said, pouting slightly.


 Usually mature, Ines occasionally showed a maidenly side, which was cute. By the way, her kissing was still in practice (clumsy).


 ”Ines-san is cute, isn’t she ♪” I said.


 ”Mmm… Sylvie, you want to kiss Daisuke too, right?” Ines asked.


 ”Of course ♪ Now let’s kiss ♪” Sylvie said.


 I enjoyed the usual assertive Sylvie. Unlike Ines, she looked loli-like but kissed skillfully.


 ”Reluctantly, we need to stop here… Is exploration of the new floor going well?” I asked.


 ”Yes. Having a shield and healer stabilized us,” she said.


 ”The monsters aren’t particularly special either, so no problem,” Sylvie added.


 ”That’s good,” I said.


 The hotwind party including Meta and Vanessa advanced to the Twelfth Floor. Vipers and bears were the main monsters; occasionally orcs, rock lizards, and cattle appeared. Vipers and rock lizards with surprise attack skills were a bit troublesome, but Juliet’s nose and Sylvie’s spirits could detect them. Other monsters were just brute force, so they weren’t much of a concern.


 ”When Liese and the others are promoted, will it be the Beetle floor?” I asked.


 ”They usually fight anyway,” Sylvie said.


 ”With Daisuke-san’s support, it’s safe, but maybe they can act on their own soon,” she added.


 ”Yes, but Liese is a Mind type…” I noted.


 Liese was a discriminated Gray Dragonewt. Officially, kingdom law prohibited racial discrimination, so it wouldn’t be overt, but harassment might occur. Being a slave was apparent from her collar, so few idiots would provoke her, but there were always foolish people, so caution was necessary.


 ”Including that, we need to handle things on our own,” I said.


 ”Yes. At least, we need to keep leveling up for a while,” Sylvie agreed.


 ”Indeed,” I replied.


 Even a discriminated race was fine if high level. Ultimately, level was justice.


 ===


 Meta Cedes: “Honestly, what does your ex-husband think?”


 Meta: “I can only call him a small-minded person.”


 Meta Cedes: “No, not sexually.”


 Meta: “Indeed, he was crude, but narrow-minded, wouldn’t listen, drank and caused trouble, used my earnings despite not working—comparing him to Daisuke-sama is insulting. On top of that, I even received Divine Punishment from the divorce.”


 Meta Cedes: “Oh… that’s… you had a hard time.”


 Meta: “Until I met Daisuke-sama, I thought so. I am deeply grateful to Daisuke-sama, who taught me happiness as a human and as a woman.”


 Meta Cedes: “Ugh… it’s such a good story, I can’t comment…!”


 Meta: “You, obviously, are the fool, right?”


 Meta Cedes: “What are you talking about? You always make sharp retorts.”


 Meta: “You really… haven’t noticed…?”
