Volume 6 Chapter 34 The Little Sisters ×② Heal Takumi-kun
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
”Listen, Takumi,” Dalcur said. “Neither Neige nor I hold any resentment toward Princess Sheryl.”
”Yes, as Dalcur said,” Neige added softly.
”Really? Is that so?” I asked, surprised.
It was unexpected to hear such sentiments from Dalcur and Neige. I had been in the middle of asking them to remain stationed in the Former Northern Kingdom with the Ironclad Order of Knights. Since Neige revealed her true identity to me, Dalcur had made it clear that he now served her openly.
”During that war, Sheryl was only eight years old. I’m not so low as to hold a grudge against a child,” Dalcur continued.
”Indeed, she actually implemented good governance. She worked hard to keep us out of the war. If I ever meet her, I want to express my gratitude,” Neige said.
Relief washed through me. Sheryl had prepared herself to die, convinced she was a target for revenge. How comforting it was to know the truth of Neige and Dalcur’s feelings.
”So, you’re saying Sheryl isn’t seen as a target for revenge?” I asked.
”Of course not. The only head we aim for is Emperor Quvar,” Dalcur replied.
”That’s a relief,” I said, exhaling.
I shifted back to the matter at hand, the deployment to the Former Northern Kingdom with Weed and Kanare.
”But are you sure about this, Weed? The gap we leave will be tough to fill,” I said.
”It can’t be helped. Stabilizing the East is our winning strategy. If you’re worried, it would help if you could take control as soon as possible,” Weed replied.
”Yes, I understand. I’ll make the most of my position. I’ll even use your name, Weed,” I assured him.
”Of course. The Dragon Kingdom of Enied in the northeast is my home turf. I just hope they lean neutral at least…” Weed stroked his beard thoughtfully, his expression tight with concern.
With Dalcur and the others leaving, our strength would diminish by nearly a third. Numbers aside, it was still a dangerous imbalance.
”In a pinch, we’ll have to rely on the militia,” he said.
”Conscription? If it comes to that, we’ll truly be in dire straits,” Kanare remarked.
”Well, if we have adventurers, it might be better. In that case, Kanare, you’ll be in charge,” Weed said.
”Yes, that’s the only option we have,” Kanare agreed.
Both Weed and Kanare seemed resigned to makeshift solutions. We sent Dalcur and the others off, carrying a lingering sense of unease with us.

After finishing the meeting, I completed my state duties and moved to my bedchamber. Eil-Eil and Mori-Mori lay down on either side of me, snuggling close. Ah, their warmth soothed me…
”Hey, big brother, is this sexual service… enough?” Eil-Eil whispered.
”Yes, this is enough. Ah, I’m so happy…” I murmured, sinking into the softness.
They were both dressed in Aria’s specially made white swimsuits—strange and rare creations born from labyrinth materials. I didn’t understand how, but the fabric stretched to fit anyone. Convenient, almost ridiculously so.
With them pressed against me, they tenderly stroked me by hand. Whenever I neared release, they caught it in their mouths and swallowed. This went on for two hours, and I had already climaxed four times.
These two were my proud younger sisters in spirit—the only ones I had. Surrounded as I often was by sultry, voluptuous women, their smaller frames and innocent devotion were precious… soothing… even sacred. My eyelids grew heavy.
”Hey, big brother… did he fall asleep?” Eil-Eil whispered.
”Eil-Eil, he’s exhausted. Let’s let him rest,” Mori-Mori replied.
”Mm, you’re right,” Eil-Eil said.
And with that, I drifted into sleep, wrapped in their warmth.
I wasn’t fully asleep yet, but I kept pretending. Eventually, I’d drift off for real. It had been a long time since I’d had more than two hours of rest in a night.
”Hey, Mori-Mori. About that favor… is it really no good to ask big brother?” Eil-Eil’s voice carried a tremor.
”The one where you want to be… violated with Ms. Natalie, in Seron?” I asked.
”Yes. I think that one more push would make it work. If my sister and I were toyed with beside Naje-neesama’s corpse… sympathy for us would swell.”
”No. Big brother wouldn’t want to see you suffer, Eil-Eil. The fact that he craves such sweet devotion from you already proves that.”
So Eil-Eil had been plotting something that cruel… It was the kind of warped self-sacrifice common among Lesta’s nobility.
”But McGaref’s situation can’t wait, can it? Seron and Lesta need to stabilize as quickly as possible. And besides, Big Sister Merina’s ‘revenge’ still hasn’t been carried out.”
”Merina… I know her as her secretary. She could never manage revenge. She’s too gentle.”
I knew it too. Merina—Nyx—was far too kind. She reminded me of Hikari-chan. If she ever tried to carry vengeance through, her heart would shatter.
”But the only ones who truly deserve revenge are Sis Natalie and me…”
Eil-Eil gently clasped my hand. Her palm was damp with sweat. I lay still, feigning sleep, while sorrow welled inside me.
”Please, big brother. Take revenge on me and Sis Natalie. If you love us, if you care for Ms. Merina…”
I understood. The royal duty of revenge could be proven at church. If I carried it out in Nyx’s stead, raising the certificate for all to see, she would be restored as my wife. That was the best possible outcome—for Seron, and for me.
Eil-Eil’s wish to be defiled was only the second-best plan—for if I could not steel myself for vengeance.
”It’s hard, isn’t it, Eil-Eil,” I whispered.
”No. I’m really happy… because while I’m here, the other girls are still working as courtesans, their mouths full, their bodies used. I’m lucky.”
”I’m sorry,” I said. “I’m the one managing them…”
”They’re grateful. Even the ones who were virgins until just recently—now they can use their other holes. That’s why I want you to pierce me soon, big brother…”
”If you ask, I think he would. But… when the time for revenge comes, let me stand as witness. I have to be strong in Mother’s place.”
”Thank you. I’m sorry, Mori-Mori.”
Ah, why did the world have to be like this? I remembered what I had told Shion-chan: that I only wanted a society where fewer children had to die. Yet to reach that dream, I would have to wound the two I loved most. With that bitter weight pressing down on me, I slipped at last into deep sleep.

”By the way, Takumi-chi.”
”What is it, Kahoru-chan?”
”Your type is face like Chinatsu-chan, personality like Hikari-chan, and body like Aria, right?”
”That’s… rude. Not entirely wrong, though…”
”So that means I’m totally out of the running. Or wait—Nyx has Chinatsu’s face and Hikari’s personality. Doesn’t that make her the strongest girl alive?”
”Well… overall, actually…”
”Wait, really?”
”…Maybe.”

”Anyway, Takumi-chi, this series ranked sixth for the year.”
”Another meta comment, huh… just shy of fifth place.”
”Come on, beg for it. You want ratings, don’t you? Bookmarks too? You want sweet lovey-dovey sex scenes with Kahoru-chan, right?”
”I’m good at making people beg, actually…”
”You really do have a cruel streak, you know that?”
