In the end, the battle was settled in only five minutes by the 1st Unit that
came to reinforce us.
We retrieved all that remained of the 4th Unit led by Krone and returned to
the city.
After leaving the wounded at the hospital and infirmary, I reported back to
Lucy on the same day.
"So the results were not good?"
"Yes, I was not very good in my estimation, which caused damage to the
unit. I am sorry."
After my apology, Lucy looked like she was thinking for a moment. Then
said to me,
"Let me think about what to do with the 4th Unit in the meantime. Instead, I
want you to take care of Lady Krone. From what I have seen, she is still
very… agitated about what happened. Like I was before I met you."
"Me? Are you sure? No, I understand."
Certainly, Krone seemed very angry as this campaign had wounded her
pride.
If left unchecked, I'm afraid she'll force a repeat assault in an attempt to
redeem herself.
"The truth is, I don't want to give Yuushin to anyone else, but I don't have a
choice. But this is only for the sake of the wellbeing of the troops, okay?"
With that last line as a reminder from Lucy, I went on my way to Krone's
room.
◆ ◆
In the same barracks for aristocrats where Lucy was staying, I entered a
certain room. It was carelessly unlocked.
I was sure Krone was there because I heard something moving along with a
sound of fabric rubbing against it.
"But I can't see anything. It's dark, and it seems that the window shutters
are closed."
As I groped my way through the room, I opened the shutters and let the
light in.
Soon, I recognized the lone figure of the person who's supposed to be living
inside it.
I saw Krone, all curled up on the bed.
I walked up to her and pulled off the sheets.
"It's still early for bed. Let's talk."
"…I don't want to. You're probably going to lecture me anyway."
When I attempted to speak to her, Krone rolled her body to face the
opposite direction.
To remedy that, I put my hand on her shoulder and rolled her in reverse so
that she could face me.
"You are no longer a newbie when it comes to field battles. How come you
did that? Why were you so upset?"
I had looked at her previous military history before we went out; for sure,
she had seen some real combat.
That's why I chose that opponent for them.
"…my unit is all about providing backup and logistical support; we have no
experience fighting the enemy face to face. They said that a future
command staff does not need to fight bloody battles."
So out of frustration, you agreed to go out into the battlefield to feel the
atmosphere firsthand? If yo u a re ab le to r ead this me ssage , yo u are re

Well, that may have been the proper way so far.
"But that is still insufficient reason to act like that. At the very least, you
should have issued a retreat to protect yourself. Your unit as well, no,
especially your unit. For it is not only your life that is hanging on your
decisions, but theirs as well."
"You sound like you're an expert in those kinds of things."
"Well. Most of the time, I stay with Lucy, so I'm pretty sure I'm already
well-protected, if I say so myself. In other cases, I never get off my horse."
Saying that, I got on the bed.
"Y-you, why are you coming here?"
"I'm here to take care of your mental health, per your commander's orders."
…though I have no idea what to do from here, as I am not a counselor.
But in my experience, once you give them the feeling of satisfaction, you
can cool them down and forget about their state for the moment.
"This is a woman's room, you…nnhh!? Mngh!!"
I moved my right hand and put it inside her clothes.
But before it could go deep, Krone held it down as if to deny my entry.
"I'm not depressed enough to need you to comfort me!"
She grabbed my hand as it was and yanked it out of her clothes.
"Leave me alone! If you go any further, I'll kick your ass! Don't you think
you can screw me as you did with Lucy!"
"You're a real hard-ass. You'd be a lot prettier if you were a little more
honest."
I said that, and this time I lowered my position a little and attached myself
to the lower half of her body.
"Kyaa!? No way, that's…!!"
"Please be at ease, milady. I'll make sure to make you feel good…one step
at a time."
"T-this pervert…!! Hyuuu! Ahh, my strength is weakening…"
I put my hand inside her clothes again, where this time, I stroked her
precious area through her underwear with my fingers.
Krone's body trembled in response, making her whole body relax, also
weakening her resistance towards me.
It seems that she has a constitution that is quite sensitive. That's good
enough for me.
"Y-you, don't you dare, you rude, kuh, mmh…"
Krone tried to escape my restraints, but she couldn't seem to get enough
strength from the pleasure she's being given.
When she realized that she couldn't, she immediately tried to shake me off
by moving her entire body.
Then again, I was not in any way forcing her whatsoever. If she wanted to,
she could kick my ass right here and now.
In short, she didn't really hate my actions.
Well, since she was rejecting in her words, and I have no intentions of
raping a woman, I let go of my hand.
"Haaa haaa… why did you…"
"When you saw the ogre approaching you up close, and your unit
scrambling in terror when the ogre started going wild, you felt angry and
upset at them, am I right? You said you were in support positions on the
battlefield before this so acted that way because you were frustrated of your
previous position. But I know that that was just a guise to cover up that you
are scared too. That you're scared of dying."
When I said that, Krone turned her face away from me. That's a good sign.
Although she was afraid of the ogre in front of her, her pride as an aristocrat
prevented her from stepping back.
The result is that backhandedness toward her troops.
"Even if you go on a suicide mission on your own just because you're stuck
in a deadlock, your own troops will still suffer damage. Don't do it again."
"Then what am I supposed to do?"
Krone looks up at me with questioning eyes.
"You should have ordered that we intercept the ogre with more margin of
movement instead of leading a full front charge. You had done your
homework beforehand, didn't you? Once the fighting starts, the soldiers on
the front lines will no longer see what's happening around them. It is the
commander's role to be their eyes and give them awareness on the
battlefield, of what is happening on their left, right, front and back."
"They didn't teach me that at military school."
"Then I'm going to take my time and teach you."
As I said that, I put my hand on the side of her head, which was now
hanging down in regret. This cha pter tran slati on is mad e po ssi ble by

"First, you need to have the guts to remain calm in the face of a monster."
"And this is your way of doing it? What a cheap way of saying you just
want my body-"
"Don't be absurd. I tried this on Lucy, so I can ensure its effectiveness."
"You used this on Lucy, huh? Wait. That means…Mmh, chuupu…"
When I overlapped my lips on hers, Krone was surprised at first. But this
time, she didn't resist.
Did it work because she heard a passage about Lucy, whom she sees as a
one-sided rival?
Either way, she's now cooperating with me, which is important.
Not wasting this chance, I decided to give her pleasure.
"Please entrust yourself to me. I promise to make you feel better than
you've ever felt before."
I reached down to Krone's lower body to resume the caress that had been
interrupted.
Inserting my hand between her clothes, I stimulated her secret area from the
top of her underwear.
"Ahh, hahnnn…"
Gradually, her breathing became rougher, and her mouth began to leak a
charming voice.
The fingertips of my caressing fingers also began to feel a drenched
sensation, showing that her private part was starting to get wet.
"It's too hard to continue like this. I'm going to take off the bottom, okay?"
"Haaa, haa… do as you please."
As I told Krone, I disheveled her clothes to make them easier to play with
and pulled down her underwear.
"Red, huh. That color is too mature for you, don't you think?"
"S-shut up and just get this over with! The sooner we finish this, the
better!"
It seems she still has leeway to glare at me. But that will probably disappear
soon.
I made her open her legs and buried my head between them.
Then, I run my tongue over the sweet flower that is already letting out its
nectar.
"Hiiguuh! Ahh, ahhh!! That place…I'm being licked at that place…!"
Krone screams in surprise and tries to move her hips.
But I held on to her body tightly and did not let go.
"Haaa, hauu, uhhhgh, mmmhh!!"
Amidst the gradually increasing volume of her moans, I continued to caress
Krone, not stopping until I made her cum.
She tried not to scream as she held my head in her hands; she even bit her
lip, but her healthy appearance only induced me to strive further.
Soon, Krone was not able to hold it all in.
"Ahh, not good… if you do that to me, I'll…!!"
"Are you reaching your limit? Then cum. I allow it."
"Yaaa, aihhh!! Me, doing such things… I can't! No more…I'm cumming,
I'm cummmiiiinngg!! Aah, ahhhhhh!!"
At that moment, Krone's entire body stiffened.
She has climaxed
