–Aegir POV–
「Tristan, what do you think? Is it big?」
「That's too big.」
「How about this?」
「If it's that, then...guh! As I thought, it's impossible for me....」
「...Catherine-san, could you open the door please? I don't have the courage.」
「I don't want to do it either...if I see my beloved man in another man's ass, I'll never be able to recover from it.」
I can hear the girls' voices from outside the door. What are they hesitating about? I swing open the door from the inside.
「Hiih, homo!」「Who's the one putting it in...」
「What are you talking about?」
「「Huh? Were you not having fun with Tristan?」」
I don't know what she's going on about.
「I thought I would let this guy try holding a sword today.」
But of course, Tristan couldn't find a decent sword for himself, and he even says the small one-handed swords are too heavy.
「Dear me, I'm ashamed. But even if I have a sword, I don't think I'd be able to cut through anything but my own thigh.」
How pathetic.
Everyday in this country, we would start off by having a long breakfast with Celestina for about two hours, and then roaming the palace or town when she's in the middle of dealing with government affairs. We would go back for dinner and tell her what we did during the day. At night, she would come over to my room, where I would tell her stories of my past or made-up stories until she eventually fell asleep.
It was quite the peaceful life, but this peace wouldn't last long according to Tristan. If this country were to end up in a state of mayhem, the peace and trade agreements we signed would be meaningless and everything we did would be for naught.
「But there is still value in checking out the town and inside the palace. I'm sure it will come in handy when we eventually have to come back.」
If possible, I don't want to make that child cry.
We pick out a store in the town and have our lunch. It's not like I'll be recognized here and I'm not wearing especially extravagant clothes either, so I don't have to be too wary. However, there's a strange difference between the type of clothes in the north and south so it's easy to distinguish who's from the area and who's not.
When lunch is finished, Celia and Catherine drink tea, while light alcohol is served to me and Tristan.
「Can I go over there too? If I drink too much, I'll die.」
It seems Tristan's so weak to alcohol, just the smell would make him pass out.
「I don't mind, but you better not lay your hands on the girls.」
「Do you want to bet how many seconds it would take Celia to kill me if I did that?」
Well, he's right. If he isn't careful, even Catherine could take him out.
After the three of them went off together, I was left drinking alone until a woman sits down next to me.
「Hey mister, you have quite the body...it's caught my attention.」
Hm, a prostitute during the day?
「My husband won't be back until night time, you see...so how about it?」
The woman leans forward, exposing her chest area to reveal her breasts to me. They're quite a large pair and has nice pink nipples accompanying them. She looks to be in her late 20's and I can smell a lewd scent about her drifting in the air.
「How much?」
「I don't need money, I just want this.」
The woman's hand reaches toward my crotch, gently rubbing my dick on top of my pants.
「Let's go back to my place, it won't take long.」
I have to go after being tempted this much.
「Celia, I have an important task to attend to so I'll be heading off for a bit. You don't have to wait so just...」
「「...」」
Sorry, I'll make it up to you later.
The woman guides me to her place, invites me into her home and we both fall onto the bed while hugging each other.
「Now, let's have fun.」
「Yeah, looking forward to it.」
After the both of us practically tear off our clothes, I spread the woman's legs apart. For the past couple minutes, the girl seems a bit anxious, glancing here and there as if worried about something. I want her to focus.
「Uwah, it's huge!」
When my dick gets erect, the woman unconsciously places her hand to her open mouth.
「Now that it's gotten to this point, I'm not stopping even if you tell me to.」
「I wouldn't...but get it nice and wet, 'kay? Or it'll tear me apart.」
「Leave it to me.」
I dive in between the woman's legs and thoroughly lick her privates. There's no need to hold back, so I suck and slurp loudly, getting my face wet with her juices while continuing to pleasure her.
「Nnh!! Nnahh! Incredible, what is this tongue movement...how many girls have you licked?!!」
「You can tell?」
「Of course, you seem extremely familiar with this.」
The woman's vagina is plenty wet now, but the smell is a bit intense. It seems tight too, so I'm sure it would feel good if I thrust my shaft inside.
「Please do mine too.」
The woman gets on top of me with her genitals towards my face as we suck on each other, adjusting our positions along the way to match with our contorting bodies.
「Uhyaa...seeing it up close like this makes it seem so frighteningly big...I've had a lot of guys before too, but none this big.」
「I don't mind if your teeth scrape against it, so you can be a little rough.」
「Sure, leave it to- nhyyaah! Don't do it so intensely, I can't concentrate!」
We caressed and fondled each other for awhile, but the woman quickly reaches her limit first.
「Aah, no more, I can't endure anymore. Go ahead and stick it in.」
The number of times the woman glances at the entrance has increased. I'm sure the door is locked properly though.
「Alright, then I'll oblige.」
The woman gets on all-fours as I match the tip of my dick to her entrance from behind. This will be the first woman I enjoy in Malt. Sorry, but I'll be doing it a bit rough.
「You're quite big, so go slow-...」
「Fuuun!!」
I push my cock all the way inside her wet hole, scraping and sliding its way to the very end. I push further with a little more force behind my hips and I can feel the sensation of the entrance of her womb opening up.
「Ooou...it's in so deep.」
「A...ah...aaaaaaaaah!!」
What a tremendous scream.
「Hm, did it hurt?」
「Aahhhaaa—!!」
「Or did it feel good?」
「Uuaaaaah–!! Hhiiiiih–!!」
I can't understand when she doesn't put it into words. For now, I'll just swing my hips quickly. It's squeezing tightly, what a nice hole.
While I'm at it, I push my finger deep into her ass, which causes the woman to climax continuously and then faint. But it would be boring to fuck a limp doll, so I wake her up with a strong thrust every time she passes out.
By the time the girl created a puddle of love juices below her crotch and a pool of saliva on the pillow, the door suddenly opens. The person who came in was a man, so perhaps it's her husband.
「You bastard, what do you think you're doing to a person's wife!!」
「Mu- my bad. But it isn't rape. Trust me.」
「Aaoooooh!! Nnnhhiiiih!!」
The man doesn't even check how the woman is doing, pulling out a knife from his bosom and approaches me.
「Don't think you can get away with it after doing this to a person's wife, you hear? If you want to apologize, cough up some money!」
「Oh, so it's a trap1?」
「Nnggyyiiih–!! Dyinngg!!」
Then I don't have to feel guilty about embracing a married woman. I'm glad I didn't destroy the relationship between a husband and wife.
「...and are you gonna stop moving your hips anytime soon, you bastard...」
「Sorry, I'm almost cumming soon.」
「Don't fuck with me! You won't understand until I hurt you?!」
The man raises the arm with his knife, about to swing it at me, and just when I thought I had no choice but to stop moving my hips to block the strike-
「You, it's fine, just go outside!」
The woman who I'm fucking, who is still on all fours with drool still dripping from her mouth, shouts at the husband.
「Wh-what the heck, Lizzie? I didn't get a signal from you so I had no choice but to come in on my own accord...」
It appears that the couple performs this trap regularly.
「I told you it's fine, so just get out! It's getting to the good part! If you get in the way, I'll kill you!」
「So, that's what she said?」
「Kuh-...you owe me when this is over.」
The husband exits the room dejectedly. Is that really alright?
「Now come, the obstacle has disappeared...deliver the finishing blow.」
There is no trace of acting in the woman's tone anymore as she speaks to me in a slightly rough but genuine tone. I'm about to cum too so I'll gladly take her up on the offer.
I move my hips at a speed more than twice as fast as before, and use one hand to pinch her nipples. She's feeling turned on to the point of insanity so a little rougher stimulation should still feel pleasurable to her.
「Nnggyiii!!」
Sure enough, the woman sticks her tongue out and drool flies in all directions.
「I'm about to cum too. Are you okay if I cum inside?」
Naturally, I don't carry any contraceptive on me.
「Today is...dangerous so...」
So is that a no? Then I guess I'll have to pour it in her mouth.
「It's dangerous so...cum insideeee!!」
「Hey, hey, your husband is outside, isn't he?」
「It's fine! It's the first time I've been with a man like you. I want your kids...I beg you, shoot your seed deep into my womb.」
There's no reason for a man to refuse if the woman wants to get pregnant.
「Then here I go, you might really get pregnant, since I've heard my stuff is quite thick.」
「Good! I won't be a nuisance, I'll raise it with my husband so please don't hold back...and cum!!」
「Oooh!」
I hold the woman's ass with both hands and slam my hips against her, letting out a groan. A second later, I can hear the gushing semen flowing into her.
「It's hereeee!! So much! So thick! So hooooooot!! I'm definitely getting pregnant, no I'm already pregnant!!」
I continue rocking my hips slowly as I'm pressed up against her, pumping the final drops of liquid into her. After the woman shrieks for awhile, she leaks urine before passing out completely. It doesn't seem she'll wake up for a long time no matter what I do to her.
「Out we go.」
When I pull my dick out, a large puddle of semen spills out on top of the urine-soaked bed. This bed is probably unusable now.
「...」
「Sorry about that, borrowing your wife's hole.」
It seems the man holding the knife got quite tired after listening to his wife moan so much.
「So, are you going to attack me?」
「Guh...I'll kill you!」
The man takes a stance with the knife in hand and charges at me. I grab the hand with the knife and grip tightly.
「Ow, ow, ow!」
After the knife drops to the floor with a clang, I release the man. Normally, I would kill anybody who tries to kill me, but since he let me enjoy his wife, I'll be lenient with him or else it would come back to bite me.
「It was your wife who approached me first, so you should learn from this and stop setting these kinds of traps. You have an especially sexy woman, so I don't see why you would want to let other men sleep with her.」
Understanding the great difference in strength between himself and me, the man doesn't pick the knife back up. As I'm about to leave, I suddenly realize something.
「I'll give this to you.」
I place 10 gold coins in the man's hand.
「G-gold coins!? Ten of them!?」
「Since your wife really had a nice pussy, some really thick stuff came out. She's probably pregnant with my child, so use this to take care of it. 」
With that said, I take my leave. The man was left speechless, although when he went back inside the house, he let out a despairing cry at the disastrous state his wife was left in. I'm sure they'll stop their trapping now. It'll contribute to maintaining the public order within the town.
Now I'm worried about what to say during dinner time when I tell Celestina about the day's events.
One Week Later
「You're going back already?」
Celestina sits dispiritedly on the throne.
「Yeah, I am also in possession of territory, so I can't leave it unattended for too long.」
「Boo...it would have been better if you stayed here forever.」
She's gotten quite attached to me after just two weeks.
「I know, I'll grant you a title here in the Malt Kingdom! Viscount? Count? Even Marquess is fine?」
If she does that, there would be Marquesses everywhere. Brutus seems tense while remaining expressionless. The only ones smiling broadly are the Lord Regent and the previous King. I'm not concerned about those two brothers, since they're unpleasant people.
「No thanks, I humbly decline. Besides, if I become Your Majesty's subordinate, I would not be able to chat casually with you due to the respect I need to show you.」
「Muu, that won't be good.」
The girl hops off the throne, runs up to me and hands me an expensive-looking ring and a half-eaten confection.
「I'll give you this as a souvenir.」
It's funny how she was so reluctant to part with that snack.
「Well...if fate allows us, then we shall meet again.」
「Umu, I'll be waiting for you.」
Pablo mutters 'never come again' under his breath, but I reply back with 'I'll be looking forward to another match, Royal Brother'. After that, I exit the audience room. Celestina frantically waves her hand until the last moment.
As I approach the entrance with Brutus, who sends us off, our eyes meet. He looks at me with a strict expression as if probing for something. Thinking about the young Queen, the laid-back former King, the two idiots, and this troublesome guy, I unconsciously smile.
「Tsk!」
Right at that moment, he scrunches his face. Aah, I guess what Tristan said was true. I don't have concrete proof, but this guy will eventually turn traitor. I'm pretty confident.
Side Story: Recruiting Miners
Adolph and Claire face off against each other in the conference room of the head office of the Flitch Company in Rafen.
「The operation of the mine, the provision of required human resources, the construction of the simple city, and the procurement of materials will all be done by our company.」
「That's appreciated, but the tax will not be reduced.」
「Well yes, of course. But I would also like the feudal lord-sama to fulfill his duty.」
「And what would that be?」
「Maintenance of public order. The miners will be quarrelsome when the black beasts are appearing near the city even at this point in time. There's a limit to how much the vigilantes can handle. Especially now when people have gathered in the city, the black beasts have sniffed them out and herds of the beasts can be spotted. If they attack all at once, there will be many casualties.」
「If you want the army deployed, you would have to negotiate with Leopolt-san again.」
The duties are clearly split, with Adolph taking care of domestic affairs and Leopolt taking care of military. Public safety can fall under domestic affairs so Adolph can mobilize the guards and vigilantes, but if more strength is needed he would have to speak with Leopolt.
And right now, he's prioritizing the reinforcement and training of soldiers so he can't easily move the soldiers to a far away place with no clear enemies like the mine area. He will undoubtedly tell Adolph to let the vigilantes handles it.
If the feudal lord himself were here, he could make the decision immediately, but he is unfortunately absent. Similarly, the mountain nation won't mobilize if he isn't here either.
「Should I make this an urgent matter?」
「If possible, I want soldiers to be dispatched today.」
「I understand...I don't know if it can be done today, but I'll ask for a departure tomorrow.」
Since the company is handling everything from arranging for laborers to construction and procurement of materials, some sense of reliability needs to be shown from the opposite side too.
「By the way, have you gathered all the miners necessary?」
「Pretty much, but you are welcome to add any extra help if you have some.」
「How did you- well, you've gathered them.」
Mining is hard physical labor and a dangerous occupation, so very few people choose to do it. The workers in the mine are often slaves or prisoners so it's mysterious how a merchant could gather them in such a short time.
「Ufufu, that's a secret.」
Claire smiles and dodges the question, which ends the discussion for the day.
On the way home, Adolph, who has a big pile of work, intends to finish eating quickly and sits down at a food stand. There is a man beside him, apparently afraid of something and taking tiny sips of alcohol.
「Semir-han, so you were here?」2
「Hiih!」
Calling out to the frightened man is a grinning man and a burly man. The smiling man appears friendly at first glance, but his wide eyes give off an eerie feeling.
「You know what we're here for, right? Today is the deadline for the 10 gold.」
「Yeah, I know...but something happened at work and they didn't give any...」
「Sir, it was the same last week as well, so is it possible you are trying to avoid paying?」
The large man closes the distance while smiling. This was obviously a loan shark collecting his dues. Of course, moneylenders with a high interest rate who ruin the people's lives are forbidden, but it is definitely a problem if money was lent with an interest rate within regulations and wasn't returned. Looking at this person based purely on conjecture, he isn't working when he has debt and is drinking in the middle of the day. With that in mind, Adolph chose not to interfere.
「Please don't sell me as a slave! I'm...」
「It won't do you any good to tell stupid excuses. We're just following the law set by the feudal lord-han, and this is legitimate business...so it is how it is, Semir-han.」
「R-right.」
「Money – if you return it, you're a customer, but if you don't, you're just a thief. A grudge over money can be quite the terrifying thing, you know?」
「Hiiih!!」
The moneylender makes a scary face for an instant, but smiles again as he places a sheet of paper in front of the man named Semir.
「Sir, you can't return 10 gold just like that while you're jobless, now can you? So, I'll help you find a job.」
The paper presented to Semir seems to be some sort of contract.
「Spare me from riding on the wagon! I can't fight with those black beasts, I'll die!」
「I know that. You sir, don't have the brute strength nor the guts. But this is something different, and although the work may be a little tough, it is different from a life-threatening battle. If you work diligently everyday, you'll be able to pay back the 10 gold in no time.」
「R-really?」
「You are in no position to doubt anyone, since the one who lied about returning the money was you, not us.」
The man doesn't even have the chance to read the words on the paper properly, but signs the sheet anyways. The moneylender has a satisfied expression and nods as he wraps his arm around the man's shoulder and walks with him.
「Where are you taking me?」
「Well you see, it would be rude not to say hello to your employer. Leave it to me, I won't do anything bad.」
「...」
Adolph takes a glance at the document from the side. It was a one-year contract for service at the iron mine, with the wages going towards the loan and interest, and the late charges would be deducted in advance. The interest rate was extremely close to the permitted limits.
「The moneylenders for this city should all be working under the Flitch company.」
Except for the illegal high interest moneylenders, everything that can be controlled is in the hands of that woman.
「I was wondering why a merchant like that woman would want to have uncool personal lenders under her company...so it's for this?」
It is somewhat pitiful for the man, but there isn't any deficiencies or illegal clauses on the document. Ultimately, the document is one which legally makes him work at the mine.
「What a terrifying woman.」
Adolph quickly finishes the rest of his simple meal and stands up from the seat. He has to conduct troublesome negotiations with that expressionless man after all.
