Chapter 11 The Former Princess Invited to the Dominion and the Man with Something Boiling Inside Him
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Man, that Water Splendor Flash was seriously amazing! A beam of water just shot right out of my arm!
Sure, the downside is that I can only use it once, but this thing is a seriously reassuring trump card to have. I took down that lion-headed beastie instantly from outside its attack range.
The moment the beam fired, a massive recoil slammed into my arm. It made the beam shoot upward from the bottom, but that actually worked out great, since it cut the lion’s head clean in half, right and left.
That’ll make it a lot easier for Aion-san to haul, weight-wise, don’t you think? If my arm can’t handle the kickback, it’s going to be tricky to focus the blast on the same spot, though.
And the duration of the beam… could I somehow stretch that out a little bit more? I’ve only used it once, so there are still a ton of things I just don’t know about it, yeah?
I looked back at the woman again, Cleonora, that is.
”U-Um… Are you okay?” I asked, my voice a little tight.
”……Yes, well. It seems I was saved,” she responded, her voice guarded.
Our first contact was pretty intense, so she was definitely on high alert. But now, it looked like she’d dropped her guard a bit, she was sheathing her sword.
Well, not totally dropped it, I could see how she was still tensing up a little.
If The Handsome was here, I bet she would have let her guard down ages ago. Honestly, I think it’s really time we seriously considered founding the The Handsome Tax and got it through parliament.
For now, I decided to just go with the flow and pretend I hadn’t just witnessed her pee; we needed to get the conversation moving.
”My name’s Shimizu Shoichi. And this is Ami-chan.”
”Shimizu… Shoichi…?” she questioned, sounding out the unfamiliar name.
”It’s too long and hard to say, isn’t it? Shou is fine!” Ami-chan announced, giving permission to shorten my name without even asking me. Whatever, I didn’t care.
”I am…” Cleonora suddenly staggered, then dropped to one knee right where she stood.
”Are you alright?” I rushed out.
”Ugh…” she groaned, clutching her side.
She must be hurt somewhere; that lion-head monster had blown her away just moments ago. I don’t see any blood, though… I was wondering about that when a low growl echoed through the quiet forest.
GROWWWWL
”…Huh?”
”………….”
I was trying to figure out what that noise was when Ami-chan immediately gave me the answer.
”You were absolutely starving, weren’t you?”
Oh.
That was her stomach rumbling. I hadn’t realized a person’s stomach could make such a deep, resonant sound.
”This area has a lot of poisonous berries… I haven’t had a proper meal in days,” she admitted, her face flushing with embarrassment.
”Seriously?”
I was surprised. I had been eating food I made by using up Resource Points, but I’d also grabbed some random fruit from the area before. It hadn’t tasted great, so I stopped and just converted everything into Resource Points the next day. I hadn’t even thought about poisons or anything like that. In that regard, I guess I really am just a Japanese guy with zero sense of impending doom.
”Ah—well, do you want to come back to my place? I can give you as much meat and water as you want, you know.”
”Y-You would?” she asked, her eyes widening.
”Yeah. And if you’re okay with it, I can give you a piggyback ride, too.” I turned my back on her and crouched down.
She hesitated, but I guess she was truly out of strength, because she finally leaned her weight onto my back.
Now that I think about it, this was the first time I’d ever carried a woman on my back. Because of her clothes, I couldn’t feel her chest against my back, but she was oddly heavy, maybe because of the sword she was carrying.
As I walked back the way we came, I kept the conversation going with her.
”My name is Cleonora. I never thought I’d run into another human in the Demon Forest,” she said, her voice strained.
”Well, a lot of things happened, you know. Cleonora-san, why are you here?”
She was silent for a few seconds, then let out a heavy sigh. “The truth is, until recently, I was the Second Princess of the Emmeld Kingdom.”
”Huh… The Second Princess, is that so…?”
Naturally, I’d never heard of that country. But Second Princess means she’s royalty, right?
Why is such an important person out here? Wait, the way she put it—she was the princess…
”…You don’t sound surprised,” she observed, tilting her head.
”No, it’s not that I’m not surprised… it’s just that I don’t even know what country you’re talking about, so.”
”I see…”
I have zero knowledge of this world’s politics or geography.
A royal ought to have a wealth of information, though. I figured I should talk to her about that later, when the time was right.
As I was thinking, we arrived back at my Dominion.
”We’re here.”
”…! W-What is this?”
Along the boundary of the territory, I’d dug a moat and erected a fence, so you couldn’t enter except through specific spots. Compared to camping in the forest, this was a much safer environment, wouldn’t you agree?
”I’m astonished… to have cleared this much land deep in the forest… How many people live here?” she wondered.
”Huh? Just me and Ami-chan.”
”…!? Two people did all this?!” she exclaimed, truly shocked. Well, she was right to be. It would be impossible to do this without wielding the power of a Quester.
Just then, Aion-san appeared. Ami-chan immediately gave her a command.
”Aion. Haul the defeated demon monster back to the territory,” she ordered.
Aion-san immediately left the territory. That lion-head was pretty big; I was expecting a decent amount of Resource Points from it.
”That maid just now…! I thought you said there were only two of you here?”
”She’s a Familiar!”
”A Familiar…?”
”Yeah! Like a Golem or a Homunculus, that kind of thing! She doesn’t speak; she’s just a magical creature that only takes human form.” Ami-chan rattled off. Familiar, Golem, Homunculus… I wonder if she even understood what she was saying. Oh well, as long as the message that she’s not human gets across, that’s fine.
I led Cleonora to a chair just outside the shack.
”Please wait here for a bit. I’ll get the meat and water ready.”
”Don’t expect it to taste like much, though,” Ami-chan advised.
Together, we descended the stairs to the basement, moving to the chamber that held the Great Phantasmal Soulstone. The moment I opened the window system, Ami-chan started talking.
”Shou. You know what this is, right?”
”Huh… What do you mean?”
””What do I mean,” she says! It’s your chance to have s*x with Cleonora!”
”Huh—WHAT?!”
Wait, this isn’t the time to be surprised! That’s right, I was running out of time!
”But the first person I’m going to be with is a super beautiful royal—that’s setting the bar way too high!” I burst out. This was the first time I’d even talked to a woman that beautiful. I felt totally intimidated, especially as a guy who had only been practicing thrusting on Aion-san for the past few days.
”Ugh… Listen up, will you? Think about it for a second.”
”W-What am I supposed to think about?”
”It only has meaning because she’s a beautiful royal. Just imagine it? Cleonora, a woman of her standing, spreading her legs for Shou to impregnate her. How about that? You get to shoot your inferior genes—the genes of an ugly, desire-ridden loser—directly into the noble womb of a princess?”
”…………”
I felt like I was seriously insulted, but I put that aside for a moment. And then I started to imagine it.
She’s a former princess. The thought of mounting her, violating her, and finishing inside her…
it was incredible. I was getting so hyped up.
I don’t know if she’s a virgin, but she’s the kind of woman who would normally never open her legs for a guy like me. Using a noble princess as an object for my s*xual release…
yeah. Just like Ami-chan said, the feeling of trampling on her dignity was so damn good.
”It’ll reset Shou’s life limit, and you’ll get a chance to scout a Magic Girl. Most importantly, you’ll earn a ton of Ego Points!” Ami-chan exclaimed.
”Really?”
”Yeah! Remember how you were making excuses just so you could stare at Cleonora’s piss? Your Ego Points shot up like crazy then!”
I knew it! I realized. I was definitely aware I was fulfilling my desire in that moment.
”You have enough now to create more maids or scout a Magic Girl.”
”B-But… how am I supposed to even get to the point of kissing her…?” I mumbled.
”Agh—come on! Stop wimping out over something like that! You should just forcefully kiss her, that’s what you should do!”
Well, yeah, I guess that’s true, but…
I just met Cleonora. I wasn’t confident I could build a relationship where she’d kiss me willingly in the next two weeks.
”You absolutely must not ask her, “Can I kiss you?” or anything like that!”
”I-Is that right?” I asked, bewildered.
”Of course it is! Giving a woman time to think is the same as letting her cool down! And if you ask for permission, she has to make the choice of whether to kiss you or not! I bet you were thinking of asking her permission, and if she says okay, then kissing her, and if she says no, then forcing it anyway… but that’s the kind of thing that makes even a long-time lover lose interest.”
I had been thinking of taking permission, and if she said no, forcing it, but she shot that idea down immediately.
”Either way, Shou, you don’t have time. You know that better than anyone, right?”
”Well… yeah…”
”Besides, don’t worry. This is definitely going to work out,” Ami-chan asserted, nodding confidently.
”Huh?”
”Cleonora hasn’t had a proper meal in days, has she? Her ability to think is probably super low right now. She’s completely drained. Plus, she knows you just saved her from a dangerous situation.”
I recalled what Cleonora had said when I defeated the lion-head. She definitely knew I rescued her.
”All you have to do is give her food, listen to her story once her mind clears up a bit, and she’ll definitely have some kind of backstory to confess. As she opens up to you, she’ll start to trust you, even a little bit.”
That made sense, too.
In this dangerous, unpopulated area, we were the only humans she had. I don”t know if you could call it the ‘suspension bridge effect,” but if I kept feeding her and listening, her guard would definitely lower significantly.
”After that, you lead her to the bed in the shack, and when she least expects it…”
”Kiss her,” I finished, the thought taking root.
”Exactly! Oh, and one more thing. You need an Affection Level of 50 to scout a Magic Girl, so you absolutely must do it doggy style!” Ami-chan stressed, giving her final instruction.
I knew I had to brace myself. This was probably the final roll of the dice for whether I’d die in two weeks.
”By the way, Cleonora’s Affection Level for Shou is currently one.”
”O-One…?” I stammered, deflated.
”Hey, at least it’s not a negative number, that’s something!”
One out of a hundred… I just saved her from a dangerous demon monster, carried her all the way back here, and now I was about to give her food—and it’s only a one!
”The first meeting was the absolute worst! She should be at, like, negative 70! …Hey, are you listening to me?”
Damn it! I was right! Cleonora is a high-caste, popular normie—the kind of person who doesn’t care about people like me!
If I picked up her dropped eraser, she”d probably say, ‘Ugh, gross. That creepy guy touched my eraser,” and wouldn’t give me a shred of thanks.
Yet, if I hadn’t picked it up, she would have called me rude or inconsiderate! And then she’d start playing the victim and call over her popular, high-caste guy friends to bully me.
For women like her, manipulating men with their beauty to eliminate anyone they dislike is probably like tasting the sweet nectar of omnipotence. I bet if I take care of her now, she’ll just see it as her due. And when she gets back to her kingdom, she’ll probably cry victim, saying I touched her royal body.
”I… I won’t allow it…!”
”Helloooo?”
Something was bubbling and boiling deep inside my heart. I couldn’t wait to dump that boiling something all over Cleonora.

Summary:
Shoichi, newly emboldened by his powerful Water Splendor Flash ability, brings the exhausted former Princess Cleonora back to his fortified Dominion. Upon discovering her extreme hunger, he offers her food and shelter. The system-guide, Ami-chan, immediately sees this as a major opportunity, pushing Shoichi to exploit Cleonora”s vulnerability for maximum Ego Points and to reset his life-limit timer through s*x.
Ami-chan outlines a manipulative strategy to lower Cleonora’s Affection Level of ‘one” and secure the outcome, stressing the need for forceful action and the ‘doggy style’ position for system benefits. Shoichi, fueled by both a dark, s*xual desire and deep-seated class resentment against the beautiful royal, resolves to follow the plan.
—
Character Insight:
Shoichi’s deeply felt social anxiety and ‘low-caste’ mindset transform into a dark, transgressive desire when faced with the high-caste Princess. His resentment is what drives his ambition and his willingness to use his Quester powers for manipulative ends. Ami-chan acts as the perfect, amoral mirror to his darkest thoughts.
—
Behind the Scene:
The core conflict is Shoichi’s short, two-week life limit, which can only be reset through specific actions, primarily s*xual in nature, driving his aggressive and cynical pursuit of women, regardless of consent or circumstance. The advice from Ami-chan is purely pragmatic, focused on maximizing system gains (Ego Points, Affection Level, Magic Girl scouting) rather than any moral consideration.
Notes:
• Aion – The maid golem. She has chestnut-brown hair and and a well-featured, but utterly expressionless, face. Looks like Karakuri from certain series.
• Cleonora – The second princess. Have a yellow blonde hair. Usually styled as hairbun.
• Shimizu Shoichi – A plain, middle-aged Japanese man with short black hair and brown eyes. He looks worn-out and ordinary. Average build, average height, standing looks like Satoru Mikami from certain series.
• Ami – A palm-sized fairy-like being from a world separate from both Earth and the isekai realm. She has light blue hair tied in a ponytail, mischievous blue eyes, and tiny wings that flutter behind her. Her outfit consists of a provocative high-cut leotard and a short jacket that looks like a miniskirt from the back, leaving her legs bare. Despite her playful appearance, she is actively searching for a contractor who can protect her from dangerous pursuers in exchange for the powers she offers.
