Chapter 3.10

She had no intention of resisting at all. As her body leaned forward, her nose touched Ray’s groin covered by the bathrobe. A fragrant soap scent greeted her.

“So what do you want to do? My puppy.”

She carefully pushed between the robe and lightly pressed his scrotum with her lips. Then she glanced up at Ray.

“Do you like that so much?”

“Woof!”

“…”

Ray’s face flushed red. Seeing how he reacted to each and every one of these actions, she was certain that while he may have hit many women, he had never seen one among those women who was as happy as she was.

〈 Ray’s affection increases. ( Current affection: 97% ) 〉

“Sera…”

“Yes?”

“Do you like me?”

“Yes! Master, I like you!”

“How much?”

“Very, very much!”

She answered with a bright smile that wouldn’t be strange to call the happiest person in the world cosplay. At that, Ray briefly averted his gaze, then swallowed dry saliva and stroked her head.

“Still, Sera, if Earl of Adria says he’s taking you back, you have to return.”

“…”

Does he really want to dampen the mood here?

With affection around this level, he shouldn’t send her back. Ah, but before that, this is the tutorial.

“Aren’t you scared about going back?”

She tilted her head at Ray’s question. It wasn’t a matter of being scared or not. If he was going to ask, he should ask whether she’d miss it or not.

“If I go back, I won’t be able to see you, Master?”

“If you go back… you might be sold as a slave. Or become the Prince’s consort. Maybe you could even become an Imperial Consort.”

“What?”

Suddenly? 

This is too out of nowhere. Because of the serious atmosphere, her plan to show appropriate questions and appropriate dejected expressions was ruined. Ray continued speaking while stroking her hair.

“If you’re sold as a slave, I can bring you back. But if you enter the Imperial Palace… it would be difficult to meet again.”

“…”

“It’s a low probability. Earl of Adria doesn’t know that you are a mage, Sera.”

“…What does being a mage have to do with becoming an Imperial Consort?”

She asked carefully while resting her cheek against the inside of Ray’s thigh, and carefully placed her hand up to pull out his c*ck.

“The Emperor likes mages. He likes mages who will obey him for as long as possible. And women who have enough talent to be worth keeping alive, he takes as wives.”

That was roughly the setting. She nodded to show she understood and kissed the shaft touching her lips with a smacking sound.

For a game story, it was quite interesting, but she had played too many games to get absorbed in this level of setting. It was only natural that powerful figures like emperors became villains more often than powerless civilians.

Thinking so, she grasped his c*ck and gently caressed it with her lips. Ray was looking at her with a subdued expression.

“You don’t seem very interested.”

“No.”

“Then you don’t mind going back?”

“I’m your puppy, Master.”

She giggled as if the story didn’t matter at all. Perhaps that also displeased him, as Ray took away his c*ck and hid it inside his robe.

No, why! You said I was a puppy!

“Sera, this is a serious conversation…”

His firm voice cut off midway. Because in front of his eyes sat she with an expression like she had lost her country.

The man, momentarily speechless with his mouth closed, lifted her body and seated her on his lap. He held her as if coaxing and soothing a child while meeting her gaze.

“We’re having a serious conversation.”

“…Are you trying to send me back because I had s*x while you were sleeping, Master?”

“It’s not like that…”

“Then are you telling me to behave because you’ll send me away if I don’t listen again?”

“That’s also…”

Then what exactly is it? 

She couldn’t understand the meaning at all. Only feeling hurt, she stared at Ray with a sulky expression. He maintained silence for a moment, then spoke in an even calmer voice.

“I’m curious whether you want to stay here or want to go back, Sera.”

If he was curious, he should have said so from the beginning. Why did he talk as if she was going to be sold somewhere?

Actually, whether she went back home or not wasn’t important. Anyway, that place was somewhere she didn’t even know existed, and above all, this was just a tutorial zone for sensitivity settings.

Therefore, she wasn’t currently pondering whether she wanted to go back or not, but rather what to answer. She lowered her gaze and let some time pass, then looked at Ray with a somewhat serious attitude.

“If I go back, I’ll miss you.”

At her attitude, which was quite rare to see, Ray’s expression softened considerably. Fortunately, it seemed to be the answer he wanted, as he didn’t drag out the previous conversation any further.

“I’m thinking of closing the tavern soon and opening a tea house. Let’s go together next time.”

“You’re not doing the tavern anymore?”

“You seemed to quite enjoy showing off your chest in front of men.”

He lowered his voice frighteningly. Overwhelmed by the atmosphere, she couldn’t bring herself to say yes, but just thinking about it made her tingle between her legs.

Even though she tried not to show it, her b*ttocks and thighs kept twitching, which only fueled Ray’s anger. Fortunately though, he didn’t scold her. He just… embraced her like this and settled into bed.

Huh, is this fortunate?

It wasn’t a situation to view favorably. How could she view favorably being held while sleeping when she had a chastity belt on and couldn’t sleep at all?

She looked at the man who had his eyes closed with a wistful gaze. But he, this wicked tutorial man, soon only provided the sound of soft snoring.

It was absurd. She tried pushing her body slightly and poked his cheeks. She bothered him in various ways as if pleading to be spared, but all that came back were hands that hugged her even tighter.

She was trying to escape by pushing firmly when suddenly the snoring sound stopped. Drowsy blue eyes turned toward her.

“Sera.”

“…Yes?”

“Sleep quietly before I tie you to a chair.”

What was I  to sleep all day? And usually in situations like this, wouldn’t the basic thing be to pound away until I fainted, calling it punishment?

Is he really a character from an adult game?

* * *

Even the next day, her abstinent lower body continued to drip lewd fluids endlessly without drying up. Perhaps because she couldn’t touch it, she became even more restless.

Why does a game made for s*x have a chastity belt…

She approached Ray, who had just gotten off work, hesitantly. She really whimpered and hesitated.

“Not sleeping in today?”

“Because I sleep with you, Master…”

“I thought you’d sleep well since you wanted to be punished.”

Ah, there was that method.

Ray loosened his tie and flicked her forehead. Her mouth, which had been open for a moment, closed.

“You can sleep in. When I first said that, it was because I was going to give you training to use at the tavern.”

“Ah… Then you’re not doing it now? I don’t mind doing it.”

“Even if I had continued using you there, there’s no need to do it.”

“Why?”

She followed behind the man and quickly settled on the lap of him sitting in the chair. It was just her designated seat now.

She slowly unbuttoned one loosened shirt button while glancing up at him. He didn’t answer and just stared at her intently, then suddenly became serious.

“The important thing isn’t that, but that I was trying to use you to make money.”

“Then will you give me allowance too?”

“…Let’s stop talking.”

His serious and conscientious effort turned to helplessness in an instant. It wasn’t that she didn’t understand what he meant by saying this, but she tilted her head.

Strictly speaking, Ray was a man who had bought her to use at a bar and used violence to make her submit. Naturally, in normal cases, this man should be the object of hatred or fear.

But she wasn’t a normal case. What happened the day before yesterday was severe on Ray’s part, but not unbearable. What was scary was actually that the one doing the hitting wasn’t in his right mind, rather than the paddle itself.

“Master, did you make alcohol today too?”

“Since the workplace is a tavern, I made it.”

“Then did you make that too?”

“What?”

“…Desecript.”

The question she threw out wasn’t without thought. She unbuttoned the last button and lightly gripped his collar. No, she gripped it tightly.

It was somewhat against her temperament. Her being jealous at this age. Of course, it was closer to jealousy about having her play stolen rather than jealousy toward a woman, but either way, being envious wasn’t her style.

While waiting for an answer, heat gradually rose to her cheeks. She gradually lowered her head and regretted it for no reason, when Ray cupped her face. Pleased with something about her flushed appearance, he raised the corners of his mouth with a chuckle.

〈 Ray’s affection increases. ( Current affection: 98% ) 〉

He looked extremely satisfied. His smiling lips approached and rubbed against her flesh. The soft flesh naturally parted between her teeth and came over.

Saliva gulped down. Though she didn’t know why she was suddenly excited, she stroked the man’s cheek while feeling their saliva mixing.
