Part 1
Master and Servant contract — the magic of swearing allegiance to the
master.
Because each other's souls are connected by the magic of the contract, it can
grasp the position of the partner if thought deeply.
In addition, if each other's relationships of bonds and mutual trust are
strengthened, The master and subordinates may both raise their combat
potential.
To prevent the subordinate's betrayal on the other hand, the characteristics of
the caster's ability is added as a curse. If the subordinate's side have guilty
feelings for his master, the curse activates.
… It is a terrible magic, if you think about it.
◊◊◊◊
Facing up the ceiling above his bed, Basara on his room stared blankly. After
he came home with Maria, Yuki and Mio finished the dinner for four people.
After that, he was told by the three girls living together with him to wait in
his room, which he is doing right now.
Tonight is a full moon. The only day where the master-servant contract can
be recited in the human world.
Basara will, and thereafter, link the master-servant contract to Yuki and then
followed by Mio.
At first, Basara was pretty reluctant in having a master-servant contract with
Yuki.
Though Basara and Mio are connected by the contract, Mio falls into a horny
condition when she held guilty feelings for Basara, and made to accept a
considerable mental burden.
Particularly, being able to do nothing but surrender as a subordinate to
pleasure, Mio has been done many shameful things up to now. One of it
exactly is the incident at the shower room today. Therefore, it is not really
necessary, if Yuki thought about it.
…however.
To know each other's positions. And, as the master-servant contract is
deepened, the combat efficiency is also raised.
These two advantages are very big. In fact, Mio has been saved thanks to one
of these merits till now, and was able to come through while fighting the
powerful enemy. In the future, it will be impossible to avoid fighting
powerful enemies further – called the high ranking demon clan. After all,
Mio pledged to avenge the murder of her adoptive parents — the high ranked
demon Zolgear. In addition, if the other side began to move and target Mio,
clashes will be inevitable.
Therefore, countermeasures were an urgent need for Basara.
——in this situation, the idea that surfaced, is that for Basara and Yuki to
enter a master-servant contract.
Yuki, from the hero clan has been ordered by the village with the mission of
monitoring Mio, but what if, she was living together with them only for
working with the enemy hidden from Basara's view?
——not possible. Yuki is an important friend who, similar to Basara,
betrayed the 'village'. She defied the orders given to her for the sake of him
and Mio. If a case they were attacked by Zolgear, Yuki will surely fight for
Basara's sake.
Though this is very reassuring, this meant that Yuki's life will be exposed to
danger. To decrease such risk even a little, Maria proposed to make a contract
with Yuki.
In contrast to Basara and Mio who are reluctant because they knew the risk of
the master-servant contract, Yuki agreed at Maria's proposal without delay.
That decision didn't even change upon seeing the aphrodisiac curse that took
effect on Mio.
However, due to the fact that Yuki assertively wanted to form the masterservant contract with him, Basara finally gave in. A few days ago, when he
went to the shopping district with Yuki—— she disappearing in front of him
in the middle of shopping is a big thing.
The impatience and fear that he got in that time, Toujou Basara hasn't
forgotten. In case Yuki would be lost, the bottom of his heart thought that it
would be better if the master-servant contract has been done.
Right now, a clear threat called Zolgear approached them.
Until the matters regarding Zolgear has been settled, the option to link the
master-servant contract to Yuki following Mio temporarily won't be a
mistake.
Because the master-servant contract can be only done in a full moon, it is
possible to release it under the mutual agreement of both sides.
Suddenly, the door of Basara's room was knocked with modesty from the
outside.
"Basara, please come down. Maria and Nonaka have already finished the
preparations."
In response to Mio's calling from the other side of the door, Basara got up
from the bed.
"Okay… Coming."
Replying calmly, he prepared and walked towards the person on the door.
◎
Going out of the corridor, Basara went down the stairs and followed Mio.
Mio, who first reached the first floor, looked back with her eyes pointing up
to his.
"I say… I woke up not in the mood because of having strange thoughts."
Sulking only for a little while, however gave warning of insecurity from her
upturned eyes.
"I know it already… However, it's all right. This time is different from that
time. If the contract is properly made, the curse will not activate in a sudden."
At that time when contract with Mio was made, various things happened. The
original master-servant contract was reversed and the magic activated
because Mio refused the contract. There won't be any problem if it is done
according to normal procedures. But,
"…because I believe in you"
Saying a few words, Mio took a step to the living room. What could possibly
to go wrong? Basara followed while thinking, he set foot on the living room.
"————————"
The meaning of Mio's words were immediately understood, he stood on the
spot.
In the center of the huge magic circle drawn on the floor, Yuki stood. But that
is not the reason why Basara halted his step. It is because of Yuki's
appearance. What Yuki wore is a sensational white bustier with garter belt —
an underwear to lure a man to temptation. Charmed by the gallant beauty
involuntarily, Basara turned his back in a hurry.
"WA ——, my bad… that's not… that appearance!?" slightly screaming in
embarrassment, the voice called out Yuki at the back.
"I said that I don't want to lose to Naruse-san… Maria prepared this."
"What is this sense of ridiculous rivalry? No, if anything apart from that
appearance, I will not yield to Mio. Do not be deceived, Yuki. Such
appearance only pleases Maria!"
"Basara-san, that's a terrible misunderstanding. I just only responded to
Yuki-san's feelings"
"Lies! You, you are really enjoying this confusion aren't you?
Right. To think that I was worrying a little too much after coming back from
school, here she goes again in full throttle. If there is any room to place her
eroticism even a little bit, I will shove it in full force.
…if these kind of things happen, you should have told me earlier!
Basara sent blaming glances at Mio, who in turn made a displeased face and
turned away. It seems that Mio had tried and failed to stop the situation
somehow.
"…Basara, look this way" "No, before that, Yuki should change her clothes
first!"
As Basara tried to appeal the request of Yuki at his back,
"...…."
"…? Uhm, Yuki-san?"
As the atmosphere at his back got disturbingly quiet, impatience struck
Toujou Basara. This silence—— it's obvious that Yuki is clearly displeased.
Basara was asked timidly,
"Basara…If you won't face this direction within five seconds, I will take this
off piece by piece."
"I-I understand. I'm sorry!"
In an instant, Basara turned back with a sudden momentum.
Why am I apologizing here…
To think that he is being held hostage by the act of a girl getting nude.
Although embarrassed, as Basara's gaze swam all over Yuki's captivating
figure, Yuki seemed somewhat happy in spite of her blushing face.
…damn. What a joyful face.
Sometimes, Mio and Maria pose wide open and daringly defenseless, and
may do physical contact time to time that may look like they're teasing
Basara. Is his embarrassed reaction really that amusing?
Smiling full of bliss, Maria was given a look full of resent,
"Fufu. Now then, shall we start?" "More like, let's end it all quickly."
A negligent response was retorted from Basara. The agreement of the
situation has been completely accomplished, and all preparations are ready.
Identical at the time the contract of Mio was signed, each person stood in
their respective positions.
"…won't you not get a wrong master and servant this time?"
"Leave it to me. By any chance if I make Yuki-san Basara's subordinate, she
would also become Mio-sama's subordinate indirectly. I won't ever make a
mistake this time."
Beating her chest with pride, Maria joined hands with Yuki who is standing
next to her.
"——Then Yuki-san, here it goes" "…Roger"
As Yuki replied with a nod, the magic circle began to shine at once. At first
the body of Yuki, after that Basara's body was surrounded with the same
light too ——shortly thereafter, a magic circle appeared on the back of
Basara's right hand. Seeing it, Basara felt relieved.
"Alright… Yuki, do you understand the procedure after this? To the magic
circle on my hand, you have to kiss i ——"
"…don't want it"
"Oh. Don't want i…eh? Come again? What are you saying Yuki…?"
As the face became startled by reflex, Yuki took a deep breath and matched
his eyes,
"I have decided it from the very beginning—— I won't do a normal
contract."
◎
Before her own eyes, the agitated Basara, Nonaka Yuki saw it clearly.
The childhood friend that Yuki loved, mouth agape.
"wha-what are you saying Yuki…?"
He approached her as he panicked. As he presented his right hand where the
magic circle appeared,
"Did you hear it from Maria? The magic circle will eventually disappear if
we didn't do it right away, and then terrible things will ha ——" "I know.
But it will be fine."
In contrast to Basara getting impatient, Yuki declared as is nothing will
happen. Shifting her gaze from Basara to Mio,
"I should have said it properly… I won't lose to Naruse-san."
"————————" In contrast with Yuki's declaration, Mio who saw her
glance turned away without saying anything. Those eyes, were not similar to
the agitation like Basara.
Somehow, what Yuki wanted to say can be predicted. That Yuki is a
formidable opponent, she thought. But thinking even further at the same time,
…I won't accept defeat.
The time Mio and Basara entered into a master and servant contract, Yuki
heard what kind of condition Mio was in. The circumstances Mio and Basara
was in if thought thoroughly, you can say that this is a valid excuse. The
feelings that yearn for Basara however, Yuki can't allow herself to lose in
that aspect. Therefore Yuki can't afford to keep silent without doing anything
about the relationship between Basara and Mio. First of all, it is out of the
question if they don't have to be in identical terms with one another.
… It is useless to be treated in the same condition.
Of course, losing is never an option if it's loyalty to Basara. However, the
lack of knowledge concerning the relationships between opposite sex can't be
denied. And there is a situation to follow. No matter how much effort she
gave to catch up to her, she won't be able to surpass Mio.
For this reason Maria was requested for a favor, and became a figure wearing
an erotic underwear. However,
…There will be no meaning if she easily made the contract here.
It was heard that Mio endured nine times for the contract to be made. And
after that, she was treated like that too many times by Basara. Even after
today's swimming lesson in a place where Yuki doesn't know, she has been
done again by Basara.
That was not a joke. Today, Mio surpassed the number of times she has been
done to herself up to now.
"Yuki…." "Its alright…do the same thing to me as you did to Naruse-san"
To the anxious Basara, Yuki responded.
"Basara, please——dominate over me"
Immediately after those words were uttered by Yuki, the magic circle at
Basara's hand disappeared.
——That moment,
"Ah —…"
In the depths of her abdomen— a sweet ache was born in the organ that
symbolizes femininity. Yuki's body quivered.
The same time, a sensation came at once. In the sense similar to what he got
when she was done with the swimsuit with Mio last night, the idea which
Maria proposed in which Basara was made a full coverage.
"…Ah…nn, yaah….n…"
As she made alluring voices in sweet agony, Yuki staggered and leans her
body in front of his eyes.
"—to" "Fuaaahhnn"
Both hands wrapped the back and held it firm. Then— a weak titillating
sensation ran on Yuki's whole body.
…What…is this…?
Snuffling naively in the arms of Basara, Yuki was caught in a surprise.
"Now Basara-san… it's your turn to respond to Yuki's feelings this time."
Maria joyfully told while Basara was hugging Yuki.
"I get it already. Now that it has gone this far already, I don't have a choice
——but to do it"
He retorts in a slightly lowered voice than usual.
"then, please come to the sofa. First, please look for Yuki-san's weak spots
first."
"...…"
To Maria's words, Yuki and Basara stared each other in silence.
Words were not needed. As Yuki entrusts her weight to Basara, and he
carried her towards the sofa—with Yuki's back lying flat onto the couch.
And, as Basara cover's her delicate figure,
"I'll be touching you, Yuki" "Okay"
With her whole body in heat, Yuki nodded, and Basara began touching her
body.
Basara's hand was gentle. The fingers working, which are concerned about
Yuki's body which became really sensitive,
"Ah....fuh ,ahh…Nnn…Yaahh….Ahh..Nn…nu…ha…"
Nonaka Yuki clad in underwear enough to allure any men writhed her body
in sweet senstions above the sofa.
Wherever she was touched it was so comfortable that it's unbelievable.
Whenever Yuki was touched by Basara, a sweet sensation ran into her whole
body, and the area round her waist becomes hotter and hotter. Yuki, who had
such sensitive reactions, there was a moment where Basara hesitated for little
while——before he began touching her breasts and thighs.
Yuki, looked up with eyes willing to accept everything, Basara's hands
eventually extended.
"Yaah…ah, fuh…uh….haaa….fuaann…ya…ahh"
As the sensitive parts of her body was assaulted, pleasure developed on the
woman's body. Yuki gradually raised her voice. When the contract was
signed, it was found out that Mio's chests are her weak points. At that time,
Mio which her chest was assaulted became in complete disorder, and it is
heard, master and servant contract was completed in the ninth time. That
sweet sensation, was far stronger than any place Yuki was touched until now.
However —
…If it's like this…by all means….we'll be even…
Because there is a certain tolerance to senses such as pain acquired from the
training as a hero, it will be ridiculous if she was to lose focus here in no
time. Mio was subjected to hardships nine times before she has given up, but
she herself seems to be able to tolerate it even further.
With this I can win against Mio — — With this catch up with her for once.
Or so she thought,
"?….Hm, Basara…?"
All of a sudden, Basara released his hands from her chest. What on earth?
What's wrong? As those things filled her thoughts, Basara's hands reached to
her hips, and then ——
"YAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaa?!"
Incomparable to the pleasant feeling when he did her breasts, Nonaka Yuki's
body trembled all over.
…Wha, what the ...is this...?
With such intense pleasure Yuki was taken aback by surprise, Maria, looking
at her state such state,
"Fufufu, as expected, Yuki-san's were her hips." "Eh…?"
Said in delight, Yuki understood the meaning of those words before long. Her
self was just told where her weak spot is.
"Ah, AAAaaaaahhh..."
Yuki, which her face were tinged with red in shame quivered, and Basara,
from facing upward, laid his face down to her.
And then, a wispher was brought to her ears,
"Yuki…. Please raise your hips."
"Yuki was ordered by the voice, her body stiffened with a sudden twitch.
What on earth will happen is I do as he said? It's understandable that Yuki is
ignorant about this kind of knowledge. However,
"Ha…..."
Yuki followed the words of Basara. Mio have seen it. Refusing Basara's
words in front of her eyes is not an option, because she absolutely don't wish
to be assumed as a woman with a weak loyalty.
Therefore as told by Basara, Yuki raised her hips and was shoved up to him.
"...ha...h, Fuuuh…..ha…"
Basara hasn't touch them yet. Still, Yuki's ass, where Basara's intense gaze
on her rear was somehow felt, were shaking from side to side, as if it was
begging to be touched immediately.
"Don't worry. I will make you surrender at once."
With a gentle voice that seems to be a lie, that moment her buttocks which
became sensitive ——were grasped tightly all of a sudden.
"——————————"
An intense, violent pleasure sparked the first time, and Nonaka Yuki's vision
turned pure white.
…Lie…, this is...
It's not just her sight. All her thoughts were wiped out by the intense
pleasure.
It was unbelievable. Having been such pleasure. For Mio to be able to endure
it nine times.
Yuki bit her lips tightly and braced herself up desperately. Then,
"What an erotic hips… they are a good match for Mio-sama's chest"
Before everyone became aware, Maria had come before their eyes, and said
those words with a smile. As she was seen, Maria turns out to be holding a
videocam towards them.
"Wha – what are you…"
Seeing the recording lamp on, Yuki raised a voice filled with confusion and
felt intense shame.
What am I doing? I'm filming Yuki-san's sexy figure."
The young succubus smiled naturally as she said.
"Today will be the holiday when Yuki-san will become a complete servant.
How could I let this pass without recording it properly?"
"…No…such things…."
As her face reddened while her body writhed in pleasure, Yuki,
"Gosh, you don't like this? Even though the other day we watched the film
where Mio-sama is being done by Basara-san? This is the same thing.
Because Yuki-san said that she don't want to lose to Mio-sama, I intended to
stir up the mood."
Well,
"If this makes you feel unpleasant, then I'd better stop for the better. Well,
Mio-sama also seemed to resist being taken like this."
"Of course it's natural to resist! To begin with, you kept silent as you filmed
it!"
From a slight distance with a blushed face, Mio shouted.
"So, with your consent, if I filmed it like this and you are able to endure it,
you may be able to win against Mio'sama"
"No way…" "haah"
What an absurd remark. Well, succubus are succubus, Mio continued, and
Yuki surprised.
"I don't mind either which. Whether you stop me here or continue taking
pictures. I won't intend to force it. Basara-san's job as the master is more
important, which is making Yuki-san submit herself – even by forceful
means."
"...…hau"
From the words of Maria tinged with provocation, Yuki bit her lips facing
down. Maria, seeing Yuki's state gave a coquettish smile, and Mio whose
face was blushing, held her breath. After that, holding both hands before her
face making a fist,
"…Please continue"
A shaky voice was squeezed out. Those words where revived by the two
people, Maria and Basara.
In her heart, she convinced herself.
…it's all right. This much, is nothing to me…
As her body trembled because of the tingling sensation, Nonaka Yuki
strongly engraved this to her mind. Even if it's impossible to catch up to the
number Mio had reached so far, she may be able to shorten her distance even
a little.
Behind Yuki, Basara's voice persuaded in a gentle manner.
"It's great if you are willing to do it, but please. Don't overdo it"
As he said it, Yuki's hips have begun to be massaged again.
Once again, Yuki was pushed up to her climax in no time —— not
understanding how many times she came at once. Although counting was no
means possible. As her buttocks are messed up and changed shape, Yuki
raised seductive moans every time her body reached climax.
"…haah…Don't…my waist…without…permission…."
Feeling the heat on her hips as if it was burning, Yuki felt a non-stop intense
pleasure. However, the way she was massaged was so intense that it left
traces of hands within her rear. That indecent appearance too, was being
recorded to the video. Every time the five fingers of Basara dig into her ass,
Nonaka Yuki's butt twerked indecently.
"Fufufufu, fantastic, Yuki-san. Though your usual, intelligent and calm
appearance is beautiful, You today being overtaken by a woman's instinct by
overwhelming pleasure is more charming than ever."
The voice of Maria was heard close to the ears. The words entered her ear,
but Yuki didn't understood properly what Maria had said. Yuki, as of now,
Basara and only the pleasure that Basara gave was all in her mind.
Blank thoughts. A reaction of women in intense pleasure. In real time,
Nonaka Yuki's body grown up to an adult. From an innocent girl to an
experienced woman who tasted the sweetness of erotic sensation.
Still ——Yuki kept on enduring. Not wanting to lose to Mio. This strong
desire desperately made her consciousness in tacked. After that,
"Quite stubborn aren't you… spending too much time will cause a great
burden to your body." Maria uttered in disappointment.
"Basara-san, how about changing positions for a little while? Well, attacking
from the rear may be good, but as it is right now, Basara-san cannot be seen.
If the person who becomes the master comes to view, I think that Yuki-san
will be able to submit easier."
"…..Maybe you're right"
Heeding to the advice that originated from Maria, He and Yuki changed
positions. It is a sitting posture where she is riding onto the lap of Basara.
Yuki who acquired her target, reached her both hands to the back of Basara's
neck and embraced it.
"…hah...Basara, please. Not my hips…."
As the sweet feverish sensation enveloping her body made her head faint,
Nonaka Yuki begged. Her own self wanted to catch up to Mio, even a little.
Not only on terms and relationship, but chest size included.
"If that's what you wish, then…"
While rubbing her rear with his left hand, Basara pulled down a shoulder
string of the bustier Yuki was wearing with his right hand, and began
massaging the exposed left breast. Furthermore, the very tips of her breast
which became tense, were held by his mouth, and Yuki was sucked by Basara
in indulgence.
"Yaaah...Nnn, yaaaah, nuuuu, fuaaaaaah!"
Her upper body of Yuki which was carved in many times, became sensitive
to the limit, incomparable to the feeling when her chest was caressed earlier.
As her whole body trembled in ecstasy,
"hah...Basaraaah…Basaraaaaaaah"
his hands gave a tender massage to her chest and gentle rub at her hips. Yuki
kept on calling the name of his partner, who will soon change from being his
childhood friend to being his master. Then, as the other hand slid from the
back of her waist down to her panties, without warning, both hands were
wrapped around Yuki's butt.
Caught in a complete surprise attack, Yuki that felt the hands of Basara over
a piece of cloth up to now, was feeling the sensation as he touched her bare
butt directly,
"——————" And she was attacked by the heavenly sensation even
further, her body on the lap of Basara jolted up intensively. Grabbing the hips
of Yuki, Basara waved both of his hands left and right. Unexpectedly, Yuki's
panties dropped down to Basara's arms, baring all of Yuki's butt.
"Basaraaah... No, don't look! —————"
Unable to endure further, Yuki raised her voice, and something incredible
happened.
Yuki's appearance was projected in the TV of the living room.
"Huh——————?"
Seeing the videocam Maria was handling connected to the TV with a cable,
she startled.
"You can endure even something like this, right?"
With a smile, she said as she raised the volume of the TV with the remote
control.
...No way!
The voice was not high pitched any longer. If she did such a thing, her voice
will surely be heard outside. Being driven to a corner all at once, before the
eyes of Basara, Yuki panicked. Still not keeping away his hands at Yuki's
rear, Basara looked at Maria with the eyes of scorn.
He did one sigh, and then focused his eyes on the front.
Sorry――his mouth moved quietly.
Expanding his both hands, Basara began grabbing the soft meat of Yuki.
"hah...Basara, what are you―――hah?"
Raising her voice all of a sudden, as she heard her voice leaking out from the
TV in a loud volume, Yuki's breath was cut off.
In that hesitation, the resistance of Yuki ended. Her eyes opened wide, but
it's too late.
Her hips expanded to the limit, her hips flushed hot. ——the following
moment,
"――――――――――――"
As her hips were ripped apart lewdly above Basara's lap, Yuki raised a
coquettish voice.
with the mute button of the remote control, Maria zeroed the volume of the
television, all at the same time.
◎
The entire moment Yuki became Basara's subordinate, Naruse Mio
witnessed them all. Seeing the place where the other girl orgasms even she
herself has done it before, all of it was a first time for Mio.
…Wow… in Basara's arms, with a face that was completely intoxicated with
euphoria, Yuki is submerged in the afterglow of orgasms. Her figure, where
her panties were pulled down to her thighs, and her bustier were exposing her
chest revealing her half-naked condition, was too captivating. Involuntarily,
Mio swallowed the saliva that gathered in her mouth.
...I also, was like that too… When the curse activated when the masterservant contract was conducted for the first time, and the she was put herself
in ease. Before the fight with the hero clan the other day, and even in the
shower room at the school today.
"Haaah――――"
Recalling Basara with herself at that time, Mio's body trembled from head to
foot. Getting a pleasant chill for a moment, her body flushed in heat. Then,
"Are you alright, Mio-sama?" "Eh…?"
Suddenly being asked by Maria, Mio finally noticed that she had sunk down
the floor. Witnessing the figure of Yuki that was changed to become a
subordinate by the hands of Basara, her waist gave in without even knowing
it. In a whim, A smile surfaced on Maria's expression, and
"Here Mio-sama...Please look closely."
She was urged to take a look at Yuki. The eyes of Yuki, which had lost focus
until then, was gradually regaining her senses. ——and regained a sane color
before long. After that,
"Basara——————…"
The moment when she turned around and looked up to see his face, Yuki and
Basara's body were wrapped by a light. And then, the mark of the curse of
the master-servant contract that appeared on the neck of Yuki slightly
changed into a reddish tint.
"Eh...? That...impossible…"
"It's possible. To be able to perform a master-servant contract and
reinforcement at the same time, Yuki will be promising in the future." Maria
stepped up under Basara and Yuki, happily saying it.
—But, Mio could not chase after her. The reason is, her waist gave in, and is
unable to stand up. Doing a reinforcement at the first contract——Naturally,
Mio, was the reverse, troubled and was unable to yearn for Basara. Such
feelings that Yuki did something that was impossible in her feat,
"...hah"
Seeing Basara and Maria talked about Yuki in silence, Mio felt frustrated.
However, this did not activate the curse of the master-servant contract.
Because she didn't hold any guilty feelings for Basara. What Mio is holding
at present——is vexation to Yuki.
"——Then Basara-san. The preparation for the bath is ready, you should
carry Yuki-san in."
"Eh...me?"
"What are you getting flustered for? If we leave it like this Yuki-san will
catch a cold. In the first place Basara-san is the Made Yuki-san as she was
now isn't it? Good grief… Although Basara-san is remarkable when his
sadist switch is on, he becomes twice as sweet and open-hearted when he
returns to his consciousness."
Maria said with a smile,
"With the master-servant contract has been taken cared of successfully, the
main duty has been taken care of up to the last minute. Plus, it was done up to
the point of raising the fighting power all at the same time. At the state Miosama was in the other day, didn't you warm her body properly?"
"…Is that so?"
Maria whom being asked by Yuki nodded.
"Yes. Mio-sama has been warmed up gently by Basara-san already."
"............."
"...uhm, Yuki?"
Turning her mood bad, Yuki showed a displeased expression in a moment.
When Basara asked her a question timidly,
"…Lets go in" "uhm…that's" "inside the bath too" "...I understand"
It can't be helped. Basara nodded, lifted Yuki in his arms and began to walk.
"Well Mio-sama, until when will you play innocent? Don't you want to take
the bath together?"
"Eh...? Wha-Why me with Nonaka…"
Surprised at the sudden question, Maria with a 'tsk tsk' waved her index
finger to her,
"It is 'Yuki-san', Mio-sama. Also Yuki-san, Please call Mio-sama by her
name from now on. Using the cold (formal) one is strange because you two
are already on equal terms with each other, being Basara-san's servants."
"Wait. How is a servant way of speaking a…"
In contrast to Basara whom frowned involuntarily,
"............." "............."
Yuki that was embraced by Basara and Mio who slumped on the floor,
exchanged stares at each other.
"…Fine. I'll go with Yuki." "Me too…I don't mind with Mio"
That said, the designation of calling each other's names was renewed.
In an instant, Through Basara who is the master, Mio and Yuki's relationship
changed for certain.
Therefore Mio and the others—— the four people entered the bathroom
altogether.
Taking her clothes off near Basara who turned his back, while feeling
embarrassed, Naruse Mio gave thoughts about her present situation all over
again. Eight months ago. Compared to when she was still living peacefully
with her parents —— No, her parents were killed, and immediately after that
she learned that she herself was the daughter of the predecessor of the Demon
King from Maria, as she was told.
From those days, her mental state and environment changed to the point that
is unbelievable, and that is taking place right now.
Becoming a part of Basara's family, a former Hero clan. Entering into a
master-servant contract with Basara, becoming his subordinate. Her skin
being seen, touched, and taken advantage reaching to the point of acceptance
even though it's very embarrassing. And also living together with Yuki, an
active hero and lastly—— she becoming the subordinate companion of
Basara.
Naruse Mio accomplished an unbelievable transfiguration from her previous
self.
——however, neither mystery nor unpleasant feelings were received.
A family whom takes the trouble to support Mio even her sowing an
embarrassing appearance, a partner whom she can discuss her intentions
without reserve. The existence of such companion made her feel genuine
happiness. The entirety that is called Basara continued to grow inside her day
by day, but…
Suddenly, Maria stripping off her clothes next to her while humming a tune
came to Mio's sight.
"? What's the matter, Mio-sama?" "...Nothing. Never mind."
To Maria who looked at her in puzzlement, Mio stated while shaking her
head side to side.
Basara was to be in their center, but it was also thanks to Maria who is the
one who acts as the mediator in between their relationship.
After having exposed her real identity to Basara, it was thanks to Maria that
Mio who hesitated to go back to living with him was able to persuade her,
and the reason she was able to return.
Not only that. After her parents are killed, and even the many times that
happened up to now, thanks to Maria's cheerful and lively personality she
was able to cope up her mental state. Mio is here today because of Maria.
Even if she's a little bit carried away to her succubus instinct, in the matter of
the master-servant contract with Yuki, she didn't ignore the issue of the way
of calling each other's names as a servant and companion of Basara, instead
she insisted them to call each other by their first names. She was likely trying
her best for Mio to make friends. Because they don't know when the present
demon king faction will strike, for Mio who hesitated to make good friends,
the existence of Yuki who lent her power that is from the hero clan is even
rarer than Basara.
...Well
Showing such an assertive attitude only towards Basara, I want to do
something somehow. And yet, seeing the struggles of her inexperienced
maiden friend in untying the string of the new bustier,
"I'll do it…"
Mio, clad in her underwear went to her back, and helped her took it off.
"…Thank you"
With her cheeks dyed red, Yuki spoke words of gratitude. That time when
she helped her buy clothes in the center of the shopping district, the
atmosphere between them got a little closer to each other. It felt nice, talking
to Mio, she herself also took off her bra and panties, and the two people
wrapped their bodies with bath towels.
"Come, let's enjoy to our hearts a naked socialization tonight!
First to enter the bathroom, Maria uttered, followed by Mio and Yuki after
that, however——the tow people's steps came to a halt. Basara, who went
naked and wrapped a towel around his waist, is still not looking back towards
them. Mio and Yuki then nodded to each other, and
"Hey—— you two!?" "Just go already!" "Basara, prepare yourself" the two
people seized the arms of Basara, and pulled them towards the bathroom with
force.
Part 2
From the night sky, there was a person observing the situation at the Toujou
house.
With the moonlight being shown in the background, lowering her gaze to the
Toujou residence, was a woman, a demon with a transient beauty ——Zest.
"......"
Zest had been watching the situation of the Toujou residence in silence.
For deceiving them in the competition that Maria initiated last night, where
Mio and Yuki in their competitive swimsuits had been ruined by Basara, his
body, in return was washed in a competitive way to get their revenge. ——
However, it was only a while, Mio and Yuki became in harmony.
First, Yuki, in her bath towel exposed herself and began to wash Basara using
her own body. Seeing this, Mio removed her bath towel undauntedly, covered
her chest with soap bubbles, and stuck it into Basara. Both have been feeling
up the heat in a fast pace. When Basara tried to take refuge to the bath tub in
panic, Maria embraced Basara by chance in the right timing ——and the
bathroom of the Toujou's fell in the state of confusion. Even if the troubled
Basara is seen,
"......"
Zest silently watched over the state of the Toujou residence, emotionless.
But, even so, even if there is not a word, nor a facial expression, it wasn't
without feelings at least.
Just like Mio and Yuki, Zest too, has a master.
However, she felt that there is a big difference Between Zest's and them.
Her present self, was neither satisfaction nor dissatisfaction——nor envy of
Mio and Yuki.
…However.
If Basara were his master and not Zolgear, would she herself obtain such
strong emotions? Like Mio and Yuki, sometimes smiling, sometimes angry,
sometimes joyful, sometimes crying. Would she be like them, not taking
everything for granted and ignoring it all?
"…what an absurd story"
Zest concluded as she turned her eyes down in silence, and Naruse Mio came
to her view once more. As Basara tried to release himself to Maria that was
hugging him, Mio and Yuki went to the hot water one after the other, and an
outrageous state in the bathtub with four people began.
But in spite of these circumstances, there is somewhat a trace of smile in
Mio's face. However,
"―――That smile of yours, won't be for long."
While saying it with a chilling voice, a cloud covered the moonlight in an
instant.
When the full moon reappeared again, there were no traces of Zest left in the
vicinity anymore.
Only the autumn wind that blows through the night sky where a full moon
floating above remained.
Part 3
Three days after the Master-servant contract of Yuki has been made ——
Toujou Basara visited the Hijirigasaka Academy Infirmary.
He had a jammed finger.
[1]
The affected part is his ring finger. It occurred in the middle of the basketball
in PE class.
——Usually, Basara do not suffer any injury during class.
However, today's classes were carried out for both boys and girls in the
gymnasium. As for the contents, there's basketball for men and volleyball for
women. And in the class of Basara, there were a few prerequisites that were
absent in other classes.
They are Mio and Yuki—— the most beautiful girls in Hijirigasaka
Academy, as well as their wild and lively fans.
Unlike the pool class, where the men and women perform separately, their
desire to see the swimsuits of the two people didn't come true. However,
when the class is performed in the same gym as them, it's possible to worship
them their figures gym uniform instead. A figure of a girl doing exercise is an
object that you can say a male in puberty can see in adoration. With the
increased exposure, the softness of the girls' body could be seen as they
moved. As for performing calisthenics
[2]
, it's no fun if the boys do it. On the
other hand, it is more sexy and appealing if the girls do it. Thus, from the
calisthenics to the actual game, Mio and Yuki were the center of public
attention from the boys the entire time.
Although not paying as much attention Basara still concentrated on the
basketball game, but when a pass flown to him by chance, it overlapped the
timing when the boys shouted with joy. It is because Mio decided a spike to
the toss that Yuki had raised ahead, causing the position of his hand to be
slightly out of order——As a result, a jammed finger for the first time in
several years. And because there was a pain, whether the spot was hit badly
or not, he reported it to the PE instructor, and in the middle of game Basara
was made to come to the infirmary.
"......…Haah"
Right now, he is sitting on a stool with a caster, feeling mentally strained.
The cause of it ——was in front of his very own eyes. The transcendent
beauty of a school nurse whom Hijirigawaka Academy is proud of,
Hasegawa Chisato, is applying treatment to the finger of Basara.
...not good, it's gonna be seen...
Basara has been taking glances at Hasegawa over and over. Hasegawa today,
under a wine red colored blouse covered by the white robe that she is
currently wearing, where an ample bosom that exceeds Mio by a small
margin, the buttons were already opened from the top to the third. And
because Hasegawa was applying treatment with her posture bending forward,
the cleavage from her chest was seen and seemed like it was about to spill in
any moment.
"Hn? Was there something wrong?" "N-No, it's nothing…"
Asking a question all of a sudden after feeling his glance, Basara averted his
gaze immediately.
——Mio and Yuki whom their looks can match idol-class, were living with
Maria.
Tolerance to beautiful girls, is what Basara thought that he had.
However, even to Basara, the beauty of Hasegawa can be summed up in a
single word. Spectacular. The sex appeal of an adult woman who's smell is
so fragrant that it can make your breath drunk instinctively by just standing
there. That is no way inferior to Mio and Yuki under the curse of the masterservant contract. If Hasegawa were supposed to be under the curse of the
contract, just what on earth will happen?
...what am I thinking….
As Basara shook of the idea where it started turning over a wierd direction,
"――Okay, it's over. You will be alright with this."
Hasegawa who finished doing the bandages, released her hands from
Basara's fingers and corrected her posture. The two human bodies that almost
approached the distance like lovers, returned to a distance appropriate for a
teacher and a student.
"There are no sprain on the joints. I fixed it with the bandage. Under such
condition, keep in on for three days. For now, take a rest in the bed
afterwards to avoid putting stress on the affected part as possible. Apparently,
there are no damage in the ligaments, you'll recover soon, but if the pain
becomes severe, come to me as soon as possible."
"? To Sensei's, not to the hospital?"
First-aid treatments are basically what a school nurse perform. They don't
provide full-scale treatment.
So if his conditions didn't improve as supposed to, he should have to undergo
orthopedic treatment. However,
"Take it easy. Despite my appearance, I stand more as compared to the
doctors around here. The one I had provided you also, is not a mere first-aid
treatment."
With her eyes looked toward his, Hasegawa gave him a firm stare.
"Keep away from trouble ——do you understand?" "Y-Yes. I understand."
Overwhelmed by her strange demeanor, Basara nodded. "Good" Hasegawa
said, satisfied,
"——Even though you came here several times up to now as Naruse's
attendant, this is the first time for Basara being injured and used the infirmary
isn't it?"
"Ahh, now that you think of it…"
Basara, being a former hero clan, has been trained to resist and avert
unprepared injuries or cold from an early age. Cases like this time is an
exception after all.
"But this is unexpected. It's not in my impression to have a conversation with
you very much."
"Well… there is that chance meeting outside the school grounds"
Together with Takigawa in the Yakiniku shop, Basara shared a table with
Hasegawa whom they met a few days ago. Being in a place where morals and
standards were valued like the school, they shared a private space altogether.
It is natural to acquire the sense of closeness.
"Come to think of it, not considering that shop, I had promised to treat you a
meal somewhere next time. Do you remember?"
"Ye-Yeah… I think. But you don't have to mind it that much. Way back
from that shop, I had received various consultations from sensei before…."
"This and that are different stories. Hearing the troubles of a student, is pretty
much a natural work for a teacher. The point is, you had said it to me
personally, didn't you? "Next time, Then please treat me on the next
occasion, at the restaurant of your choice". And I said "Okay." right? Isn't
that the promise you and I did?" Hasegawa's expression became unusual and
she pouted a little while.
"Toujou...Do you hate going for a meal with me?" "No, there will never
be such a thing…!"
Don't be absurd, Basara shook his head.
"…is it true?" "Yes of course. It is a pleasure to have a dinner with you"
He thought, no exaggerations. Dining with Hasegawa is an honorable thing.
"Well then… in that case, were good. Look forward to it."
Hasegawa said with a smile. To that expression, Basara felt a deep emotion
other than surprise. Hasegawa who always give off a cool, adult vibe, had an
expression very much of a girl. As much as seeing Hasegawa's rare face,
Basara thought how much good luck he has obtained till now,
"…Which reminds me, while your father is away from the house, I worried
whether you understand properly Naruse and her younger sister's problems
and if you can solve it or not…But please, can you give a little more
composure?"
"…right"
After a heavy silence, Basara replied a short answer. Hasegawa sighed, "It
can't be helped. It looks like my consultations haven't had much of an effect
either."
"There's no such thing… I was saved in various ways thanks to the help of
sensei's advices!"
There is no lie in what he had said. Basara, in fighting with Takashi and his
company, was able to get over by Hasegawa's advice at that time and helped
Basara in no little aspect.
However, a big obstacle hat he hadn't faced yet stood in his way. ——
Suddenly, the chime reverberated the whole school. The fourth period was
over, and it became lunchtime. Though it is necessary to go back to the gym,
Basara wasn't able to return early.
Certainly—— after being told by Takigawa that Zolgear is moving, Basara
kept on bracing himself for the worst. He was not able to wipe his uneasiness.
Either way, the opponent is a high ranking demon with an overwhelming
power after all.
It is necessary for him to avoid repeating the tragedy that happened five years
ago. He had lost so many important things in the place of that tragedy. Still, it
had a meaning if he had survived like this.
To avoid losing important things twice. ——Therefore,
"Toujou——do not burden yourself too much" "Eh...?"
Basara looked up, dumbfounded for a moment, to the calm expression of
Hasegawa,
"Thinking that a problem may occur and how to work it out one thing or
another out of fear, no matter what extent you make sure to prevent it at all
costs, the so-called problem will still rise."
"That's… I know, but…even so, being the head, I can't afford to give up
either."
As Basara argued with a bitter face, Hasegawa with a calm expression,
"Don't make hasty conclusions. Nobody told you to give up. However, when
a person is driven to a corner, it will only narrow his or her view of things…
If so, that will be the reason that the most important things will be
overlooked. Then, being careful so that a problem does not happen will
surely be a mistake. But, if you wore yourself out due to taking care of
things, it will become impossible for you to deal with the problem that has
risen."
She said in a persuasive tone.
"You should be noted that this is a serious thing. You may not do it even if it
was told to relax just because you lost your focus. Therefore you have to
continue to brace yourself for the worst, then think about the solution when
the time the problem that has risen at least."
"The time when a problem has risen…"
"That's right. Although you can't bring back the events that have happened at
least, there is still the thing to be able to recover unexpectedly. If you can't
prevent them, never give them a chance to recover. Besides that, you should
think about a method to regain the situation even if a problem happens, and
improve it." Don't forget. (!)
"There is always a possible way. There are still some choices left. But it is
difficult for a person who is cornered in his mind to find it. Though there is
the path open called not giving up, that is a mistake. Even if you don't give
up, neither the way nor the answer to things will be found if you are looking
for it in a reckless manner. But if you absolutely believe of what you are
looking for, it will be found in the first time. But still, don't hope for the
outcome to be exactly the way you had hoped for. You must analyze the
situation, and work out countermeasures. When you have been driven to the
corner at the outmost limit, it will become a choice and a way to help you and
the existences important to you."
Therefore,
"Don't lose sight, Toujou ——of the way where you can protect yourself and
the existences important to you."
From the words Hasegawa gave, Basara grasped his fist tightly. He then
nodded with determination.
"Yes…"
She's right. He was overwhelmed by the power of his enemy, and completely
lost his composure.
Once more, let's think of it with a calm mind. There will surely be way.
Naruse Mio, Naruse Maria, Nonaka Yuki, a method to protect them by all
means.
"Good. It seems that your expression has lightened a little… it seems that my
being as a teacher has paved its way above all."
"Yes...Thank you very much. Then sensei, I will come back soon."
To Hasegawa who is smiling as usual, Basara stood up and bowed politely.
And as he opened the door to leave the infirmary,
"Ah, Oh yeah. Toujou"
He was called out to come back.
"That bandage—— don not remove it till I say so."
"? Okay then. But to never take it off, is my jammed finger really that
severe?" to Basara that stared over his ring finger where the bandage was
rolled, Hasegawa with a calm expression,
"Nope. But you should be extremely careful."
"…Haa, understood."
Though the question still remained, but Hasegawa is a specialist so to say.
Therefore he should follow her.
When Basara replied in acknowledgement, he gave the etiquette of saying
"thank you" and left the health room.
◎
He came back to the gym just to make sure, but the class was already over,
and they had already ended putting things in order.
It's obvious that every one of the class isn't there either.
"…oh yeah, right"
With a sigh, Toujou Basara faced towards the locker room.
——As he had expected, no one was in the locker room either.
It was presently lunchtime. The time for their long-awaited meal in the
middle of the day. If he moved his body for the whole PE class till a while
ago, he would certainly be unable to wait in hunger. It seems that the students
who don't belong to the bentou group have finished changing their clothes
and charged to the cafeteria in a blitz.
"Well, Takigawa is absent today. He sure takes it easy…"
Basara headed to the far side of the locker room, opened his locker, and
began removing his clothes.
"Excluding Takigawa, I should find someone whom I can hand out with after
all."
He realized how much he had depended on Takigawa till now. Basara turned
around.
…but.
With the current situation of Mio being targeted, if he who must protect her
made friends with anyone, that person too will surely be involved in the
danger that they are facing right now. He should first concentrate on what is
in front of him, and prevent neither the students nor the teachers from being
involved due to his carelessness.
——Because Zolgear will surely try to get Mio by all means.
While Basara was in deep thought ——a locker was opened. Would there be
someone besides him who changes clothes and came late? As he looked
through the door casually,
"Eh―――?"
He looked at the person who came over, and Basara stiffened in reflex. A girl
dressed in PE uniform entered the boy's locker room. It's not Mio nor Yuki.
Of course, it isn't Maria either.
"uhm…Toujou-kun, are you fine?" She said.
Closing the door at her back, she entered the boy's locker room. It was a girl
who is in the same class as Basara——One of the friends that Mio get along
with, it was Sakaki Chika.
"Sa-Sakaki… Wha-What? Why?"
Basara panicked over Sakaki's suden appearance, and hurriedly put on the
pants of his uniform.
"I'm sorry, for entering a place like this… but I realy wanted to talk to
Toujou-kun. After all, you didn't come back from the infirmary during PE
class". She said, approaching him slowly.
"… but why here of all places? Is talking inside the classroom no good?"
"Yes… I don't want to be heard by other people, especially Naruse-san and
Nonaka-san———"
"Mio and Yuki…?"
"Well, Toujou-kun"
Sakaki, as Basara asked in doubt, closed their distance immediately and
approached him in a serious voice.
"Toujou-kun… Are you going out with Naruse-san or Nonaka-san?"
"――――Eh?"
To the question said in a clear voice, Basara asked her again in reflex.
"Because… Toujou-kun, you are living together with those two, right?"
"No, however you are right about us living together…but even so, we aren't
particularly going out"
Yuki and Mio are no doubt attractive. There were several times that they
made his heart throb while he lived together with them, and also when he
tries to dispel the curse of the master-servant contract and help them relax, his
sense of reason seemed to fly involuntarily. Yet, if asked if we are going out,
the answer is no.
…cause, you know.
Although here is no other way to describe their situation, it can't be called a
romantic relationship either, as long as we are bound up by that curse. The
feelings born by forced submission and overwhelming pleasure, were
certainly delusions mixed in. it's too unfair to call it love.
"…is that so? You aren't going out with anyone yet?"
Sakaki then, in a quiet voice,
"Then ――――― do I have a chance?"
Just like that, Sakaki brought her body and leaned on Basara. The sensation
of her soft body that touches head on,
"――――Sa-Sakaki!?"
Basara raised his voice in panic, while Sakaki's face turned red.
Do-don't make an embarrassing face so much. To this sort of case… isn't
Toujou-kun already experienced in this?" "E-experienced? I am not! Who,
who is the one who said such things!?"
"But… when I asked what kind of person is Toujou-kun, Naruse-san said
although he's not a bad guy, he seems to be a good-for-nothing fellow. You
also did very naughty things several times"
"…D-Did Mio really said that?"
Even though they get along pretty well, it is not like Mio to speak the
aphrodisiac curse of the master-servant contract to Sakaki and Aikawa. If
that's the case, then why did she spoke about the happenings instead of the
curse itself? From his encounter with her in the family restaurant, Basara had
already seen Mio's shameful appearance even before the curse of the
contract. However,
"…No, Mio understands those feelings. However, if the guy who has lived
separately until now comes to live together with them, such accidents happen
that I don't think of!"
"But you didn't deny seeing it…Naruse-san's naked body."
Then Sakaki while sticking her body to Basara even further,
"Hey Toujou-kun, though Naruse-san's is amazing…. My chest, they are
wonderful too, you know?"
"There's no reason for me to know that!"
As he cry out while saying,
"then―――I'll tell you"
The moment Sakaki said it——Basara was turned to the side, and the two
people fell down the floor altogether.
"Wha…..? Ho-how in the world did we fell just now?"
"It's a self-defense that I learned my classes before. Even though you do not
actually fall down together, it is fine now."
Sakaki said it while riding above his waist,
"…damn it, which is it?"
Toujou Basara's judgement has been misled. Although he put down his guard
of her being her classmate's companion, he was brought down in a position
like this. What Basara came first in his mind is that Sakaki is controlled by
someone, but it is too hasty to conclude that the Sakaki's feelings for him are
false. She having attended self defense classes was is not far-fetched at all.
Therefore, supposing this was all because of Sakaki's intentions, then he
should persuade her first to calm down.
——But, what if she is manipulated by someone? I cannot leave her at this
state. Deep in thought, Basara wasn't able to move at once.
"Toujou-kun, please... look at me"
Sakaki said in embarrassment, and her body fell over slowly. The soft
mounds of Sakaki are forced on the upper half of Basara's body ——at the
same time, the door of the locker room was suddenly opened.
"―――――Ha!?"
Toujou Basara felt uneasiness in an instant. Whether if Sakaki is manipulated
or not, it is bad if they are seen by a third party. Illicit sexual relations in the
school is not the problem, but if he is seen by the other boys in this posture
with Sasaki, it is Sakaki who will be hurt the most.
However ——Basara's anxiety has come to a miss.
It is because the person who opened the door and saw them was even more
shocked than Sakaki.
"――――――――――"
Above the eyes of Toujou Basara who took a glance at the door ——were
two girls standing in utter amazement. Naruse Mio and Nonaka Yuki.
Nonaka Yuki, together Mio visited the boy's locker room to look for Basara.
*********
Basara, as of now, is lacking composure.
Though he behaved naturally for them not to worry, Yuki knew it
nonetheless.
Perhaps, Mio had noticed it too. Basara ——had brooded here for too long
recently. Therefore, with Basara being unable to return to the PE class after
having gone to the infirmary, Yuki and Mio gradually became insecure. Also
like the other day, although they cannot overlook the possibility of being
taken by Maria as a companion to ridiculous places, they are more worried of
Basara above all.
The whereabouts of Basara were known right away because of the partner's
location tracker by the master-servant contract.
However, Basara and Sakaki's conversation were heard as they come inside
the locker room. Mio who heard it turned pale as she opened the door slowly
——and the scene as Yuki and Mio imagined was there.
"...…hah!"
Mio ran away from the entrance of the boy's locker room in tears. Basara and
her close friend embraced each other on the floor. It must have been a shock.
Nonaka Yuki also started running. However, in a direction different from
Mio ——towards the boy's locker room.
"Yu-Yuki...?"
"――――――"
Ignoring the perplexed Basara, Yuki materialized the spirit sword 'Sakuya' in
her right hand. Cutting down their distance in one go, Yuki brandished
'Sakuya' towards Sakaki who is still riding on top of Basara. But Sakaki was
quicker. From the state that she got from Basara she did a sudden flip to
dodge Sakuya's slash, landing on a safe distance.
"――――――Geez, how rude, Nonaka-san. Suddenly cutting me, you're
horrible!"
"Sakaki… You…?"
Standing before as if protecting Basara who got back up in utter amazement,
Nonaka Yuki plainly told him.
"...I knew it, she's being manipulated after all."
In contrast to Mio who lost her composure and ran away, Yuki remained
calm.
What Yuki draw, was a strike of the spirit sword that conceives the soul. If
Yuki wished for it, 'Sakuya' can cut off the magic and its source such as the
effects of medicine controlling Sakaki without hurting her needlessly. So
even if Sakaki is controlled by anyone, she won't be injured. On the other
hand, if she's normal, she won't be able to see the soul sword in the first
place.
——but right now, Sakaki avoided Yuki's slash in a reaction speed that is
impossible for an ordinary human, and just said "Suddenly cutting me, you're
horrible" to her. The answer had already come out.
"…My bad Yuki, thanks for saving me. But cutting her out of the blue… If
Sakaki is not being manipulated, what are you going to do?" "Nothing in
particular. I will only have her experience a slight pain then."
Yuki told, plainly. Because,
"She did such things to you and yet alone she left the door slightly opened. If
she's a sane person then she must be deliberately trying to be seen on
purpose." It is an unforgivable for her trouble Basara and do something like
that. Besides, Sakaki is a good friend to Mio. Even if she didn't know the
relationship of Mio and Basara, after having done such a thing at the school
to a person who is a part of her family that is living together, and tries to be
known by the others like a cowardly woman, Yuki won't permit it, even if it
is her classmate. Therefore, whether she is manipulated or not, it won't be
necessary for Yuki to forgive her.
"Hey, what are you two been talking about...?"
Sakaki sulked for a little while, then
"Toujou-kun... Neglecting me who confessed to you, and talking to
Nonaka-san who came just now, are you a bit heartless?" "…we are talking
about whether you are insane or not"
As Basara said it with a serious look, he whispered with an earnest
expression to Yuki's ear, "This is bad, Yuki... may I leave this to you?
Since we now knew that Sakaki is manipulated, the possibility of the enemy
targeting Mio is high"
"I think so too. You should better run quickly ―――――When she began
running along the corridor, the mark of the curse of the master-servant
contract appeared on the neck of Mio. If she encounters an enemy, forget
about fighting, even running away in that condition is impossible."
Witnessing the scene of Sakaki and Basara, she might have been shocked so
much that she couldn't control her jealousy. Yuki signed the similar contract,
but the reason why the curse didn't activate to her is that Sakaki was only a
mere classmate to her, and unlike Mio who is also a close friend to her, she
acquired training of the hero clan that always judge the situation with a calm
head.
Supposedly, if Mio and Maria are embracing Basara, and with Kurumi
present, Yuki might not be able to move by the curse too. "Basara, I'm fine
here alone. Because she doesn't even understand that she is manipulated,
gathering Intel from her will surely fail. The enemy expects us to be stalled
here."
"You're a lifesaver ―――― but don't be reckless."
Said Basara as he puts out his hand in the open locker, then went running
outside the locker room. Sakaki who saw it, sighs in disappointment.
"Aaーa. I knew it. Naruse-san is important after all… We have been dumped,
Nonaka-san."
"I don't mind. The rejected one is only you. I having remained here, is
because he entrusted you to me." Yuki said as she did a stance with 『Sakuya』
again. "―――――Oh my, class rep. Bringing a dangerous edged tool in the
boy's locker room, do you want the police to be called?" Suddenly, a voice
was heard from behind. Turning her neck, a female classmate was there. Like
Sakaki Chika, it was Mio's close friend ——Aikawa Shiho.
From her introduction, a smile floated in her face. Furthermore, she can also
see『Sakuya』in this situation. "...Why are you here"
not understanding the situation, Nonaka Yuki knitted her eyebrows. There is
no surprise that Aikawa is also manipulated. Sakaki was manipulated, so the
possibility that Aikawa who was also her close friend being manipulated is
high. However,
…So the one (taking the role) that kidnaps Naruse-san, was not her…?
If that's the case, then who on earth——suddenly a bad premonition swelled
up.
"…have to reschedule"
Standing alone, Yuki turned around.
"Eh? Nonaka-san, what is it?" "What's wrong? I can't hear you Class rep"
To Sakaki and Aikawa smiling while exchanging words back and forth,
"Basara told me not to be reckless…but it seems to be impossible."
Forming a stance, Nonaka Yuki declared as she released the power of
『Sakuya』.
Because I don't have the time to play with you anymore——I shall end this
with a single blow."
Brandishing 『Sakuya』in goodspeed, that moment, a white flash of light filled
the boys' locker room.
Part 4
Basara and Sakaki, have been caught in an immodest posture the floor of the
boys' locker room. Naruse Mio kept running away from that place.
Still on indoor shoes, she dashed out of the school building, to a place where
no one will keep an eye on.
A place where her current self won't be seen by others, a place where she
could be alone.
The sweet sensation trembling from the depths of her body welled up. If this
is the usual, she should have sunk to the floor on the spot, and her condition
will become strange if she didn't have Basara to 'comfort' her.
But, ——Naruse Mio withstood that feeling, concentrated and kept on
running at full speed.
The figure of Basara and Sakaki a little whilea ago is still engraved in her
mind, haunting her.
"Why..."
On earth did it lead to this?
Treating anyone indiscriminately as much as possible, Mio avoided making
friends for them not to be involved with the problem of the Demon clan, but
Sakaki and Aikawa are special people.
——of course, Basara and Mio only lived together as a temporary brother
and sister, and aren't going out.
But still, while living together with them, she thinks that they are becoming a
real family bit by bit.
However, Mio doesn't have the right to stop Sakaki if she has feelings for
Basara.
Located between Mio and Basara was not 'love' but ——a 'master-servant
relationship' to combat the crisis that they are having right now.
Nevertheless,
"Why..."
Running in another park that is adjacent to the metropolitan park, Mio
reached a vacant tennis court, then grabbed the fences surrounding its
perimeter.
I can't understand. Why is it so painful? Why does it hurt my chest so much?
Yuki and Maria had done that to Basara so far, but after seeing it, why am I
so angry and upset?
"But still...Why…"
Spitting out a voice, Mio panted painfully. Though she should understand
that neither Basara nor Sakaki are bad in the head, her emotions became
sloppy that she couldn't think straight.
But she knows that it's wrong. But she doesn't understand why.
She can't stop thinking that she is betrayed by Basara.
So now the cruel master-servant contract in Mio ——swelled up for the
betrayal against his master, and a curse of unpreceded level attacked Mio.
Not being able to endure it any longer,
"Ah..."
The moment her consciousness fade, Mio fell down to the side aimlessly.
However,
"――――"
An existence caught and held Mio gently.
...Wh-Who...?
With a warmth different from Basara, as her consciousness fade, Naruse Mio
saw the person who had supported herself.
Still, in a state where she couldn't be able to think clearly, she turned around
a name vaguely.
"―――――Ma,ria..." "...Yes. Mio-sama...it's all right now."
Maria said in a calm voice.
From that moment, Mio felt relief, then fainted―suddenly, a voice was heard
in the end.
Different from Maria, a female voice as cold as ice.
"Sleep at ease Naruse Mio. Your pains―Zolgear-sama will heal it."
Without giving time to understand the meaning of those words, Naruse Mio's
mind has wallowed into the darkness.
Having reached the scene at last, Toujou Basara arrived at the exact time Mio
lost her consciousness.
As he left the boys' locker room in pursuit of Mio, the location pointed as he
used the detection ability of the master-servant contract he used without
hesitation pointed out at this park.
And after reaching the scene in front of his eyes, Toujou Basara cried out at
once.
"Mio, Maria!!"
The fainted Mio was held in Maria's arms. Standing beside her, was a
beautiful woman of the Demon clan. Maria is Mio's protectorate, and as for
the beautiful evil beside her, the possibility that she's a companion of the
Moderate faction is not zero. But how does Maria who should have looked
after the house protect Mio so conveniently? And how did she managed to
call a companion devil for support in accordance to this timing? I shouldn't
be asking this——unfortunately with the situation that surrounds us right
now, these thoughts should not be allowed. For this best appeal,
"...Basara-san"
The reaction Maria had shown, was a sorrowful expression. Thus, the
moment Basara became fully convinced of the situation, a change happened
in Maria's surroundings. The space began to fluctuate.
…as if I'll let you do it!
Escaping into a distant location, she carried Mio.
As his speed on the ground is accelerated further, Toujou Basara reached top
speed in an instant. He changed himself into a gust of wind and cut down
their distance all at once.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
As he materialized Brynhild, he tried to stab the demon girl who was
supposed to be the enemy.
He mowed down and the sword flashed as he lounged through the figure.
However, it just ended cutting into thin air. The transition was slightly earlier.
"Damn it…I won't just let this happen!"
Basara that made a rigid expression tried to locate Mio's position
immediately. However,
"――――No way…?!"
Even if he thought it in his mind, he was unable to grasp the whereabouts of
Mio. While Yuki entered the same master-servant contract to be detected, he
was not able to detect Mio's location where she is kidnapped in the way the
fog took her at all. Still,
"It's not over yet...!"
Grinding his teeth in frustration, Basara squeezed his voice. Even at this
degree, still doesn't want to lose, Basara braced himself up.
That's right. It's still too early to give up.
The determination to protect Naruse Mio till the end. These thoughts were
transformed to an oath.
No matter how hopeless the situation maybe, giving up is never an option.
Part 5
The time when her parents are killed, Naruse Mio clearly remembered
everything.
At the very place of the tragedy, Mio saw in full details the cruel act of
violence with her very own eyes.
The tragedy that struck the Naruses' family get together ——that occurred
after dinner.
Mio, relaxing in the living room with the others, a devil suddenly appeared
from the thin air.
That time, she have no idea yet of the demonic existence at all. Therefore, she
only just stared at the situation, dumbfounded, not understanding anything at
all.
——However, her parents were different.
Instantly convinced that the man from the demon clan is aiming at Mio,
fighting immediately began.
Being killed ahead, was no other than Mio's gentle father.
Momentarily, when he materialized twin swords and performed an assault, a
blade with a black luster the man had brought shone, and father's both hands
flew in the air ——along with the fresh blood that painted whole place red,
the room was filled with screams.
Upon seeing it, Mother's shoulders trembled intensely, and shouted at Mio to
run away, however, Mio was not able to move. The abnormal tragedy playing
in front of her own eyes: it deprived the way and completely lost her sense of
reality. In order to buy time for Mio, Father, who lost both of his hands,
confronted the man in desperation——however, his face was caught by the
man, and his whole body exploded from within, and blood and internal
organs scattered all across the living room.
A hopeless gap of power. However, mother never gave up ——rather than
beating the man, she chose to protect Mio.
She unleashed flames of super high temperature, that even Mio as of now is
not capable of doing, towards the man. However, his power was brutally
overwhelming.
The flame prison magic that she recited was easily repelled, and a black
flame was created in return.
In an instant. Her whole body was wrapped in the flames of hell, and mother
was burnt to death.
The man who killed father and mother approached Mio slowly ——and Mio
was unable to remember anything from that point. She lost her consciousness
in excess fear, the next thing happened was she woke up in an abandoned
factory, and there was Maria who had been introduced until now as her
parents' relatives. She took on the form of a succubus, and Mio was told
various things.
And ——Naruse Mio's battle has begun.
◊◊◊◊
——More than half a year had passed since then, but the dream seemed like
it was just yesterday.
But, Mio is fine with it. Because it is necessary for what she is now. To never
forget that day. To keep the hatred burning for revenge.
After the death of her parents, she was almost deceived by her lawyer who
manages their will and inheritance, and to get rid of her she was attacked by
men with their motives in full exposure when she wandered the night town,
despite having nightmares every night. But ——after having met Basara and
Jin, and living together with them, the number of times she saw those
nightmares have lessened.
——Naruse Mio understood why.
To her who had lost everything other than the emotion of revenge, she had
obtained new place to stay——and a new family.
…but.
Naruse Mio still cannot forget. Her father's screams as his hands were torn
off, dyeing the white living room into a ghastly vermillion. The smell of her
mother as her whole body scorched.
The face of the man who had brought tragedy, and depriving her of
everything, the main culprit of all. I can never forgive him. I must avenge my
parents by all means.
If that is the reason for my living, then I'll gladly put my life on the line.
To avenge her parents is the only reason—— why Naruse Mio fights with her
life at stake.
"Nn..."
Naruse Mio slowly rose up from her sleep. An unfamiliar place was seen
before her eyes——a dark stone-built reminiscent of a throne room where
audiences were held.
"...Where am I?"
Why am I in this place? Mio was unable to comprehend for a moment. The
discrepancy between what she is thinking and what is in before her eyes, is
that she understood that apparently she had lost consciousness. Tracing her
memory back to where she had lost consciousness, she was reminded of the
situation Sakaki and Basara was in in the locker room——due to the shock in
her mind, Mio ran away while holding in the tremor in whole body.
"Eh? What is this?"
She finally noticed what state she was in. her both hands, both spread apart
were chained behind the wall, and she was restrained in a way like being
crucified. Because of the little margin in the length of the chains, her body
movement is sealed. It completely lost her freedom of movement.
"——————it seems you have regained yourself"
To the call which unexpectedly came from outside her consciousness, Mio's
whole body tensed. Looking at the source of the voice, a beautiful demon
stood still. Her eyes which stared at hers were so beautiful that it seemed to
suck her from within, even though it was filled with color of ice.
"…this woman, she's strong…"
There——Just standing there, with only her presence, she was easily
convinced.
The white mask that that has fought before, is on par with Hayase Takashi
——no, more powerful than him. And Mio understood her situation at once.
Being restrained in a strange place, with a demon that doesn't seem that she
is acquainted with, if you think about it, the evidences presented are enough.
Thus, Mio remembered completely. Being not able to endure the scene she
saw in the locker room while searching for Basara, she ran away in a sudden
impulse from that place, and dashed out of the school grounds.
"…So I fell down in a park ——and was caught by you, am I right?" Mio
glared at the demon woman with cold eyes.
"You're fast on the uptake. Not being confused in this situation, your courage
is surprising too." "Thank you for the compliment…I decided that I was
going to fight against people like you, so I assumed the possibility of being
caught by something."
Mio snobs her with a "humph", as she guessed the identity of the demon in
front of her eyes,
"You——you want the power of the demon king's predecessor that is inside
me, you who is a subordinate of the current demon king?" from the question
that she gave,
"——No. It's different."
Inside the depths of the wide space——a voice was heard from the other side
of the dark room. The moment the voice is heard,
"————*gasp*?!"
Naruse Mio involuntarily swallowed her breath. Her pulse that beat at peace
jumped up at once.
"…That voice just now…it can't be?!"
Looking at the depths of the dark hall, the sounds of steps hitting the stone
pavement was heard, Mio can't believe what she saw.
"Zest over there, swears loyalty only to me. And although I am one of the
body that serves his majesty Leohart… I don't want the power of Wilbert to
be in his majesty's way." and a demon appeared with a voice smiling in the
darkness.
"————————"
After seeing that face —— Mio had a feeling that all of the blood running
through her whole body boiled. The pressure of the aura the man gave,
exceeded the demon woman before her eyes earlier. It is the power that only
high ranking demons can possess.
If she were in her normal state of mind, Mio would only tremble herself in
intense fear. ——However, Mio right now held no fear at all.
No doubt. Certainly no doubt. No matter what, I can't be mistaken.
The face that took her kind parents——and deprived all of her happiness and
peaceful life, was the face of her only dreaded enemy.
"Zol…gear... ZOLGEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAR!"
Mio; where her emotions exploded in an instant, cried out the name of the
enemy her father called in his last moments.
At the same time, clanking of hard metal reverberated the vicinity. Mio who
tried to thrust herself forward to Zolgear, was stopped by the chain that
bound her both arms in the stone wall. However, Mio didn't stop. Her whole
body flew into a rage, as if the chain restraining her seemed to tear apart from
the force. Happily watching her in such state, Zogear approached Mio.
"Hoooo… that expression when you lost yourself in anger, is beautiful in a
way. Seems like it is worth the risk taking you after all."
"I'll never forgive you even I kill you a hundred times over! How —— how
dare you to do that to Mom and Dad!"
With pure hatred, Mio vented,
"It is a good feeling to be yearned by a woman like you"
Without mind, Zolgear gave a scornful laugh.
"It is disappointing… If I should have known that we will have a happy
reunion like this, I should have killed both of those garbage more brutally."
"...looking down on the opponent you just killed —— you lowlife!"
She cried out, with rude words accompanied by her raging feelings upon the
Insult of her parents.
"Hmph… apparently, it seems that you need to learn a language suitable to
your appearance sooner or later." In a brink of a moment, Zolgear's eyes shot
through Mio who is flying into a rage. With that alone,
"ah...?"
Mio's body stiffened all over all of a sudden, and she was at lost for words.
...This, my voice. No way, my breath…?!
The severe pressure Zolgear emitted deprived Mio of her voice, and made her
breathing unable to do as she wanted.
"This would be fine… Well then, shall we begin your education at once?"
As Zolgear said in satisfaction while cutting down their distance, her face
turned pale. With a gaze that seemed to lick Mio's curves, he made an
indecent smile.
…This bastard…?! In the eyes of Zolgear, Mio, who immediately understood
his intentions, froze on the spot.
"No need to worry about anything. I will establish a new passion inside you
and repaint all your hatred with sweet pleasures. You will now know who on
earth is the master you should devote yourself into"
Zolgear stretched out his hand with a grin.
The hand touched the rich chest on Mio in uniform, and then,
"—— please wait your Excellency."
Immediately before that, a voice stopped Zolgear—— it was Zest.
"She had already signed a master and servant contract with Toujou Basara,
and the bonds have been strengthened at the level where it is now capable of
strengthening their fighting powers. If she was humiliated by your Excellency
who harmed her adoptive parents under such conditions——Even though it's
only a succubus aphrodisiac, it is not strange if the power of the curse
activates and reaches an instant death level."
"What are you saying, Zest? With the magical barrier that I constructed
covering this entire mansion, even the master-servant contract cannot trace it.
In fact——furthermore, if I am actually caught in this situation becoming a
hindrance to the chief, this daughter is giving me a cheeky attitude a while
ago, so was it not appropriate for her to suffer from the curse?"
"Perhaps there wouldn't be any problem if it's only the curse of the masterservant contract, but the problem is the inherited power of the demon king's
predecessor Wilbert sleeping inside her."
Zest spoke with a cool voice.
"Even if it is only one——if we stimulate it poorly, the curse of the masterservant contract and running wildly of the power of Wilbert may sync at the
same time, and it's possible that even your Excellency's magical barrier
won't be able to suppress it. The worst case scenario is, we may lose both
Wilbert's power and Naruse Mio at the same time."
By those words of Zest, Mio is convinced. In this situation she had become
an excess baggage for Basara, but she thought that it is strange for the curse
of the master-servant contract not activating, indeed, there was that
mechanism.
When hearing the advice from her subordinate, Zolgear became somewhat
disappointed,
"…I see. You certainly have a point there. Very well…Then I should extract
Wilbert's power first and foremost."
"Thank you for heeding this, your Excellency. Well then——"
In the spot where Zest started speaking,
"——Zolgear-sama"
Suddenly, a young voice came out from the corner of the room. That familiar
voice,
...Eh?
Mio forgot her suffocation for a moment, and received a blank surprise that
stopped all of her thoughts. Looking towards the source of the voice whose
she won't believe, there stood a young succubus.
It was Maria. The shock has stunned Mio, and in silence, took a glance at
Maria.
"——————"
Her usual childish eyes, felt cold and inhuman——and with the fact that she
called Zolgear with "-sama", Mio understood. In the park being on the verge
of losing consciousness, it felt like she had heard the voice of Maria.
Apparently it seemed that she hearing it was not a mistake.
…So…it was like this…
Having realized the situation, Mio bit her lips tightly in regret.
So I was being deceived from the very start——by this little succubus that I
had believed more than anyone.
Ignoring Mio who drooped down her head, Maria stepped up to Zolgear.
"…what business did you came here? Haven't I commanded you to remain
on standby until I gave you an order?" "Yes. But we have received an urgent
transmission magic to Zolgear-sama coming from the Royal castle. So please
report."
To the question that Zolgear asked with an irritating voice, Maria presented
the crystal ball with a calm tone.
"The Royal Castle you said…?"
Zolgear which received the crystal ball that noticed the other party at once,
frowned silently. The crystal shone instantly, and the next moment,
"…Zolgear. Can you hear me?"
Suddenly, a man's voice was heard. Zolgear in a tone that seemed he was
standing on a ceremony,
Yes, Your Majesty Leohart————I can hear you."
Hearing that name, Mio was taken aback and she held her breath.
"…His majesty? Then…"
Probably——No, there is no doubt. Speaking to Zolgear through the crystal
ball, was the current Demon King who took over Hell after Wilbert, her
father's death.
"Zolgear, Where are you now? I can't see your appearance over here."
"It is as his majesty knows, according to the decision made by the Imperial
court, I am currently confined in my private residence. Apparently, because
the magic waves around the residence has fallen into disorder, a part of the
magical barrier has rendered unstable. Maybe that is the cause of the
distortion of the video image on the transmission magic?"
Zolgear declared as if nothing happened,
——Apart from that. There is an urgent report this time, what exactly have
you been doing right now?"
He was being asked his real motive by the king. Then. The present demon
lord said in a quiet voice.
"in the human world, the daughter of Wilbert——I was informed that the
whereabouts of Naruse Mio haven't been found. For you, who is a former
watchdog, is there any information that you can share with us?"
◊◊◊◊
In Leohart's question, Zolgear thought——the information has traveled fast,
it seems. However,
"Possibly… ever since I have been dismissed in the surveillance role, I
haven't been involved with her lately."
Zolgear said, in a voice full of obedience but with a face lacking in royalty.
"Then you say that you know nothing about this incident?" "Yes. I didn't
took part and therefore I don't know."
The residence is covered by a magical barrier, so that any waves of
transmission magic will be jammed.
Depriving Mio's voice, her appearance was not known to the other side. Mio
made eye contact with Zest with caution, but the loyal servant transformed
the nails of her left hand to a sharp thing, thrusting it at Mio's neck.
No such rattling came from the chain nor could rampaging be heard. In other
words, no problem has occurred. Therefore Zolgear feigned ignorance in a
dignified manner. Shortly thereafter,
"…Is that so? I get it. Then regarding the matter, I'll leave the surveillance
role to Lars." Leohart said in a low tune. With his mouth on a wide grin,
Zolgear,
"Then, your Excellency, is there other business you have with me?"
"No. I just want to ask you a few things —— I want you to come to the
Royal Castle right now."
Not expecting those words to come out of Leohart, he made a dubious
expression.
"…this is so sudden. Was there something wrong?"
"In the western region, ruins of the old Diavola period during the Demon war
was seemed to be found. There is a possibility that the souls of the dead and
the elements that can be used are sleeping within. I order you to accompany
them for inspection."
"I see ——if this is true, then this would be a great discovery. But Why me?"
As he spoke with humility,
"I have received advice from a certain person that you, who are one of the
eldest, have also acquired deep attainments in ancient magic are most suitable
for this."
"…that is, it is certainly right"
"What's the matter? Is there something wrong, Zolgear?"
To Leohart question, Zolgear was lost in his thoughts for a moment. He
finally got Mio. He wanted to extract Wilbert's power as soon as possible.
…However.
If he supposed to be unwilling to accompany them, strange doubts will be
held upon him. He didn't think that this place could be found that easily, even
if Leohart and his imperial court moved, but sexually assaulting Mio deep
inside her soul and extracting the power of Wilbert cannot be provided at this
time. Therefore,
"…None, your excellency. Certainly. I will take a visit at once." Zolgear
accepted it unwillingly, and the transmission magic was cut.
"Is it over, your Majesty?"
Asked Zest, drawing back the nails that were focused on Mio's neck,
"Even if he's young, the opponent is a Demon king. I can't do nothing but
go… but I won't join in."
Zolgear spat out resentfully.
According to what Leohart has said, there is someone who recommended
him,
…is it Lars? But if he does it, he should have obtained proof that Naruse Mio
has been kidnapped. Well, this will be good, Zolgear smiled. I'm being called
for a feasibility study of an excavated remains somehow or other. If that's the
case, then once I have predetermined the value of it, I will return at once.
Zolgear turned around Mio being bound to the wall and said in a retaliating
tone,
"Just wait —— As soon as I have finished my investigation, I will have you
as much as I like."
