Chapter 213: Giant Capybara, Launch! All of Us Aim for a New Land!
『Masaharu-san. I’ve brought everyone to the castle gate.』
『Thank you very much, Dura-san.』
Alright. Everyone seems to have arrived, so let’s ride Lucia to the glans.
"Lucia. I want to put everyone on, so could you lie down?"
"Nn."
Lucia lay down for me, but even so she still felt taller than a four-story building.
I jumped down from the giant capybara so I could put everyone on her back.
In front of the castle gate stood every single person from the church.
The dog girls were in their usual clothes, their hand luggage being the gym uniforms and bloomers.
The capybara girls seemed to have cooperated to bring the bathing tub the muscleheads had made for them. Inside the tub were their treasured items—favorite pebbles, tree branches, and so on.
Kaka was carrying some large luggage on her back. The contents of the leather bag were probably the gym uniforms and bloomers. I bought fifty sets, so there were still large quantities that hadn’t been distributed yet.
Pipi was carrying the basket of sweet-potato seedlings I brought from Japan.
Rafilia-san had also come to see us off. She was carrying a large load. I’m sorry for even making her help with the baggage.
There’s quite a lot of luggage; without the giant capybara we would have had a hard time moving...
"Fuā. Masaharu-san, who is this big one—?"
Kemolori and the other capybara girls had sparkling eyes. They seemed intensely curious about the giant creature that looked similar to themselves.
"This is called the King of the Grasslands Capybara, a beast from another world."
"It’s so huge and beautiful! Is she a goddess?!"
"Yeah, that’s right. We’re going to ride her and move from now on."
"Fuā!"
The capybara girls tilted their heads back so far trying to look up at the giant capybara that they toppled over backward one after another.
...Nn?
The dog girls who had been surprised at seeing the giant capybara up close were now looking up at the castle walls. Letree-san was looking down, but the Lian sisters, Petit Letree, and Shepa were looking up toward where È was and twitching their noses.
È isn’t a suspicious person, you know?
Could it be that my long robe originally belonged to him, so it has the same scent?
Ah. That’s it!
I’ve got it!
"Everyone, sorry. It’ll be done right away, so wait for me."
I jumped up onto the castle wall. After already saying goodbye it felt a little embarrassing.
"Hey, compared to those girls, whose build is closest to È’s wife’s?"
"Eh? You’re asking something weird... Let’s see. That person holding the baby, maybe."
"I see. Dura-san, then. Standard size. Wait a bit."
"A-Ah."
I jumped down from the castle wall.
"Kaka’s luggage bag has the gym uniforms in it, right?"
"That’s right ka?"
"Could you take out one full set in Dura-san’s size?"
"Leave it to Pipi ppi!"
Pipi went around behind Kaka and, without rummaging through the contents, used some kind of power to pull out a full set of gym clothes.
"Here you go ppi."
"Thanks."
For the third time I jumped up onto the castle wall.
"È. This is gratitude for the long robe, the cloak, and everything until now. Accept the clothing of my homeland. This is a gym uniform, this is a bloomer, and this is underwear. You know what panties are, right? Do you know what a brassiere is? Press this part against the breasts and fasten it with this metal fitting."
"Wh-What is this texture. Is it really okay for me to take such high-class clothes."
"Yeah. Don’t hold back, accept them. Put them on your wife and enjoy yourselves."
"O-Oi."
È’s face turned red. From the small fabric area of the bloomers he seemed to have guessed their nighttime use.
"They’re clothes that make it easy for women to move. Originally they’re worn when doing gymnastics or running, but they can also be used for the purpose you just imagined."
"You bastard."
È poked my shoulder, so I poked him back.
"You bastard."
"Kukuku."
"Ahahaha."
We laughed from the bottoms of our hearts.
Somehow... right now I feel like we truly became friends.
"Well then, see you later, È."
"Yeah, see you later, Masaharu."
After one last round of mutual poking I jumped down from the castle wall.
Everyone except the capybara girls and Rafilia-san seemed to have overheard the exchange just now and were sending me meaningful looks.
Most of them were favorable "Male friendship is nice, isn’t it" gazes, but Fullru alone was openly leaking "Even if the other party is a man, I can’t forgive you getting closer than with me" jealousy.
It can’t be helped. I stood in front of Fullru.
"I’m going to put everyone on the giant capybara’s back, so help me. I’m relying on you the most."
"Eh? I’m the most reliable?"
"Yeah. Please."
"Un!"
Well, actually, since she can summon a wind horse, Fullru is the optimal person for carrying people.
"Kaka and Pipi, help too. After loading the luggage, could you put the capybara girls on one by one?"
"Leave it to us ppi!"
"I’ll help ka?"
"Alright. Let’s get everyone on."
I scooped up Kemolori, jumped onto the giant capybara’s back, and set her down.
"Be careful not to fall."
"Yes."
Fullru came up on her wind horse with Shepa.
Kaka and Pipi carried their own luggage and the tub.
Thus Fullru, Kaka, Pipi and I divided the work and put the beastmen on one after another.
"Alright, Letree-san’s turn."
"Y-Yes..."
"Nn?"
Letree-san’s face was bright red and she kept looking down. The dog girls’ behavior had also been strange earlier—did something happen?
"Did something happen?"
"I got found out..."
"Eh?"
"Because I marked the four corners of the same district as the church, on the way here it got discovered."
"Ah..."
I see.
Originally the plan was for me, Fullru, Kaka, Pipi and Baka to each carry one person and fly back and forth several times. So we hadn’t intended to leave the church, and I thought yesterday’s marking wouldn’t be noticed. But because they walked here, they inevitably had to pass the marking positions.
Letree-san had been labeled a pervert who pees in the middle of town at night...
Earlier the dog girls were looking up because my long robe carried the scent of my urine from the top of the wall.
"Well, let’s switch gears and move on."
"Y-Yes..."
"Even if the pack abandons you, rest assured. I won’t abandon you. If things become hopeless, let’s go with the perverted female-dog character. I’ll properly bully you."
"Y-Yes!"
I only said it as a joke to console her, but a little light returned to Letree-san’s eyes.
Is it really okay to go with the perverted female-dog character...
I scooped up Letree-san and jumped.
And finally Rafilia-san remained.
I fully intend to come visit her.
If anything, I might even come back today because I want lunch.
But...
The beastman kingdom I’m creating is one of complete equality for everyone. That goes against the teachings of the Larme Church, so my visiting her might become a nuisance for Rafilia-san.
"Rafilia-san..."
"Yes."
...Nn?
Rafilia-san took one step closer to me and turned her body sideways.
It looks like the "please princess-carry me" pose, but is this the farewell pose of this world?
I hugged È normally from the front, but with women is it okay to hug from the side?
If possible I’d like to hug her from the front one last time and savor those huge breasts.
"Um..."
"Ah. I’m sorry. Would the back be better?"
Rafilia-san came around behind me.
Is she going to perform some ritual like striking a flint to pray for a safe journey?
Somehow she put her hands on both of my shoulders, as if she wants me to give her a piggyback ride.
Nn?
While I was wondering what was going on—
『Masaharu-san.』
『Ah, yes. Dura-san.』
『As you requested, I brought everyone from the church with cosmic rhetoric.』
『Eh?』
『Rafilia-san is also included in "everyone from the church," right? I said I would take every last person, but the destination is not the castle gate—it’s the glans of the erect-cock peninsula.』
『Th-That’s...! Don’t tell me! You persuaded Rafilia-san?!』
『Yes. I’m the ever-convenient, all-purpose helper character after all.』
『How did you persuade her?!』
『With cosmic rhetoric, of course.』
『Amazing! Cosmic rhetoric really is amazing!』
『No. Well, it wasn’t actually that difficult. Rafilia-sama’s faith had been shaken, so I only urged her to follow her own heart from when Larme-sama possessed her. After that, conveniently, if a replacement priest comes from the royal capital she can depart without any lingering worries. There are as many assistant priests who want to rise in rank and be entrusted with a single diocese as you like.』
『You kept quiet because you wanted to surprise me?』
『Yes. Masaharu-sama is always the one surprising me, so I decided to return the favor.』
『Kuu! I’ve been had!』
I suppressed the urge to jump for joy, lowered my hips, and gave Rafilia-san a piggyback ride.
"We’re going, Rafilia-san!"
"I-Isn’t it heavy?"
"Both of them are a soft, pleasant weight!"
"I-I wasn’t talking about my breasts!"
I savored the huge breasts against my back, stroked her butt with my hands, and jumped onto the head of the giant capybara.
Special slide service for Rafilia-san only!
I set Rafilia-san down, then slid down together with her from the back of the head to the neck and rejoined everyone.
"Alright, everyone. Let’s go to the erect peninsula! Lucia, depart! Please go slowly so it doesn’t shake too much!"
"Nn."
Zushin...
It was only one step, but because of her huge body it shook considerably.
"Everyone. Grab the fur so you don’t fall. Dog girls, keep an eye on the capybara girls so they don’t fall."
Oh. Fullru is riding her wind horse and flying behind the giant capybara.
I can’t see Kaka and Pipi either. They’re probably in my blind spot, watching out for accidents.
How thoughtful. In the worst case they’ll catch any child who falls before they hit the ground.
I should also pay attention to the surroundings.
"Masaharu."
"What’s wrong?"
Even though Fullru was flying behind the giant capybara on her wind horse, her voice reached my ear. It’s probably the same magic she used before that carries her voice over a distance.
"The dog girls will probably notice, but... I think it’s cats. Just now three beastmen climbed up Lucia-sama’s hind legs."
"...I see!"
Those guys came after all.
It’s few people for founding a nation, but we’ve become quite a large group to live together with, so I have to work even harder.
Zushin...
Zushin...
She’s fast.
I wanted to wave to È, but we’ve already moved so far that I can no longer distinguish the humans on the castle walls.
The giant capybara’s movements are slow, but her stride is simply enormous, so each single step advances hundreds of meters. Converted to speed it must be hundreds of kilometers per hour.
Before I realized it, Monvan had vanished from sight.
