Master and Slaves

The next day, we began the ruins investigation.

To be honest, we were only scouting the area first.

After greeting the elder and village chief, we entered the forest at the back of the village.

"Was it really okay to bring you?"

"Will there be any danger this time?"

"Yes, but..."

Helene frowned and looked discontent.

The one she asked was Cathy.

She had originally wanted to leave her behind because she couldn’t protect herself, but Cathy had stubbornly insisted on coming.

Since we wouldn’t enter the ruins, I thought it was safe, so I brought her with the promise that she’d stay behind next time.

"You had no problems with the orcs and ogres either, right?"

"Sweet! You’re so sweet, Sir Hiroyuki. You’re sweet to Tiria, sweet to Cathy, and sweet to me too!"

"...That’s off topic."

"...Cough. Anyway, next time is out of the question."

"Got it. The inside of a ruins is unpredictable, after all, right?"

"Yes."

Helene smiled brightly.

We had investigated the area once a month ago, but something might have moved in since then.

"Cathy, be careful. Don’t wander off on your own."

"Yes. I understand."

Cathy seemed a little overwhelmed by Helene’s warning.

The forest grew deeper and darker.

It would be easy to get lost, so Helene’s caution was reasonable.

"This area used to be a battlefield, so ghosts often appear. That’s why, Cathy, Cathy...?"

When Helene turned around, Cathy and Tiria were clinging to each other and trembling.

"Um..."

Come to think of it, this had happened before.

Helene’s mouth curled into a devilish smile when she sensed a black aura.

"A ghost behind Cathy..."

""Kyaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!""

Before Helene finished, Cathy and Tiria let out ear-splitting screams and clung to me.

The birds suddenly took flight in fright, making the atmosphere even heavier.

""Auu auu... egu egu...""

In perfect sync, they shook their heads side to side, mouths flapping, tears and snot running down their faces.

"It’s fine. There’s nothing. Everything’s okay."

I comforted them while wiping their faces with the cloth I kept in my pocket.

"Phew. Helene, don’t scare her like that."

"But, Cathy..."

Helene tried to explain while looking down, her shoulders shaking and something glistening in her eyes.

I went too far.

"Because Cathy’s reaction was so funny... pfft. Ahahahaha."

...She was laughing.

"Terrible!"

"Horrid!"

Cathy and Tiria, now calmed, scolded Helene.

"Yes yes. Cathy, Tiria, can you stand?"

After stroking their heads, I asked while kneeling.

"Yes. I’m fine."

"I... I can’t."

Tiria stood up immediately, but Cathy’s legs had gone soft. Even with me lifting her, she couldn’t stand.

"Alright. I’ll carry Cathy."

I turned my back to Cathy and hoisted her onto my back.

Tiria’s gaze felt like a stab, but I had no choice.

"You’re still so sweet."

"It’s Helene’s fault."

"Auu..."

Helene had no comeback and just stayed silent.

...

"Hee. So this is the ruins."

The stone wall towering in front of us had cave entrances, with delicate carvings around them.

Several columns stood before it, though they were broken and showed where the roof once supported them.

It looked like a miniature of Egypt’s Abu Simbel temple.

The only differences were its smaller scale and that the surroundings were lush green forest instead of desert, with vines and grass growing everywhere.

"Yes. This is the ruins Sir Hiroyuki is to investigate. All we know is that something was worshiped here."

"Only that?"

"Yes. That’s all."

"...What? What do you mean?"

"Well..."

"...It’s basically saying we don’t know anything."

"That’s not true. We found nothing, the carved writing is unreadable, giant insects appeared, and Master said to come back quickly..."

Helene rattled off everything at once.

""Kyaaa~!""

Right after, a pitiful cry came from behind, like something on my back was itchy.

"What is it?"

When I turned, Cathy and Tiria were pointing in the same direction, trembling.

A ghost?

I looked where they pointed and saw four centipedes, each several meters long, charging toward us.

Watching their many legs move in perfect rhythm sent a chill down my spine.

"Aw... awaawa..."

When I looked sideways, Helene was sitting on her butt, scooting back.

She was afraid of insects.

Helene was out of commission.

Tiria was the same.

Cathy was, of course.

The three of us had collapsed.

Sigh.

Shall I handle it alone?

I drew Shiranui from its sheath and charged the lead centipede.

But... the closer I got, the more disgusting it looked.

Its size made it seem even worse.

The head lifted, and countless legs on both sides writhed.

Disgusting...

"Stay!"

I shouted loudly to gather strength, then slashed horizontally with both hands holding Shiranui.

The lifted part was severed and fell to the ground. I dodged the fluid squirting from it and moved to the next target.

I easily defeated the remaining three as well.

But even after they died, their bodies still writhed and legs moved... disgusting.

Insects must have strong vitality.

I stabbed the others with Shiranui from above to finish them.

When I looked back, Cathy was foaming at the mouth and fainted, while Helene and Tiria were huddled together, trembling.

...Would it be okay from here?

...

We decided to take a break for lunch. The three women cried and begged to go somewhere else, so we walked a little deeper into the forest and set up lunch by a small stream.

Cathy spread a very large cloth and placed a large lunchbox in the center.

Inside were delicious dishes made by Cathy and Helene that morning.

I sat on the cloth with Helene and Cathy, while Tiria knelt on the ground.

This was our lunch scene from the past two weeks.

But today I wanted to try something different.

"Tiria, come here."

I sat cross-legged on the cloth and called her.

"Ah, yes, Master."

Tiria approached with a puzzled look.

"Sit here."

I slightly opened the large mantle I bought because it was convenient when leaving the capital and told her to sit in front of it.

"Y-Yes. Excuse me."

Tiria answered happily, turned her back, and tried to sit on my lap.

"Wait."

I made her wait in a squatting position I couldn’t avoid, then quietly slid my pants aside and let my son out.

It wasn’t fully erect, but it was sizable.

I poked Tiria’s butt with it.

Tiria jumped and looked at my face.

"Alright, it’s fine."

"Eh, ah, yes. Um, excuse me."

When I smiled, Tiria turned bright red and answered clumsily.

"If you make a sound, it’ll be bad. I’ll know."

"Y-Yes... nnn."

I warned her in a small voice, and she replied in a small voice.

Then she guided my cock to her vagina from behind and slowly lowered herself.

"Nn... kuu... ahn..."

My half-erect cock slid all the way into Tiria’s vagina.

The mantle covered us completely.

Tiria’s face peeked out from my chest.

Her expression was blissful.

"Tiria, even if you’re sitting on Master’s lap, don’t make a silly face."

"Huh?"

"It’s bad, this."

Helene warned, but Tiria was dazed and didn’t understand what she was being scolded for.

"Cathy too... Cathy?"

"Eh? Ah, yes. What is it, Helene?"

Helene spoke to Cathy, but Cathy was staring enviously at her finger and hadn’t heard what was said.

Sigh. ...Let’s eat.

Helene shrugged with a troubled face.

...

"Helene, pass me the bread."

"Yes. Um, is this okay?"

"Ah, yeah. Thank you."

I couldn’t move while Tiria sat on my lap, so I asked Helene to pass the food.

Helene took it without complaint.

I reached out from under the mantle, tore the bread, dipped it in the soup, and brought it to my mouth.

I tore another piece, dipped it again, and fed it to Tiria.

"Tiria, how is it?"

"O-Oishii... fuh."

Tiria answered in a slurred voice, probably because she was holding back or feeling too much.

My cock was growing inside her.

It was so big it might have reached her cervix, and she was barely able to sit.

Sometimes she squeezed it as if she was feeling it.

That felt really good.

So I groped her breasts with both hands.

"Hiu!"

"What’s wrong, Tiria?"

"What’s wrong, Tiria?"

Helene and I asked at the same time.

"R-Ranren... abuhie... fuh."

"Tiria. Even though you’re sitting on Master’s knee..."

Helene tried to warn her but stopped.

And then...

Sigh. Sir Hiroyuki, please be a little more careful.

Helene smiled sweetly.

She had figured it out.

"Ah, got it."

Even as I said that, I pinched Tiria’s nipples with both hands.

"Nnnnn!!!"

Tiria’s body stiffened and convulsed.

Her walls tightened around my cock.

I almost came from the pleasure, so I pulled my hands away.

"...Ha, haa."

Tiria’s breathing grew rough.

When she turned back, her face was full of begging.

"Hm? You want the bread?"

I teased her, and Tiria shook her head.

"Then this?"

I whispered in her ear and pinched her nipples again.

"Nnnnn!!!"

Tiria muffled her voice and writhed.

My cock felt good too.

"What’s the matter, Tiria-san? Are you feeling unwell..."

"It’s fine, Cathy. Sir Hiroyuki is being kind to her."

"Yes... I see..."

Cathy looked down at Helene’s explanation.

Oh no.

Cathy had figured it out too.

"Um, I’ll go see what’s over there."

"No, Cathy, if you go alone..."

"Ah, wait. I’m coming too."

Whoa.

The atmosphere was awkward.

"It’s fine. I’m just going to use the toilet. For now, the two of you enjoy yourselves."

Helene explained with a smile.

It was kind of scary though...

"...Ha... haaaahhh!!!"

In the end, I pinched Tiria’s nipples and made her cum inside me.

Tiria came from that too.

Even when I avoided cumming, Tiria seemed to cum when I ejaculated inside her.

Since we left the capital, we had had sex twice, and both times it happened.

According to Tiria, it felt incredibly good.

...She begged to do it again.

...

After finishing the survey around the ruins, we returned to Rade village.

On the way, Cathy’s behavior was strange.

She kept glancing at me, then quickly looked away when she saw Cathy.

...Had she finally come to hate me?

Anyway, we arrived at the rented house in the village and ate dinner.

Cathy had prepared it, but even at dinner she was distant.

"Helene, Cathy’s acting weird..."

"Ah, Sir Hiroyuki, don’t you have any idea?"

"Um, you mean what happened at lunch?"

"Kusu. Yes, that’s right."

Helene smiled like a devil.

"Haha, hahaha."

I had no choice but to laugh.

...

At night, I was about to sleep when Tiria was taken by Helene.

Apparently she wanted to sleep with Tiria tonight.

I at least warned her not to bully.

So I lay in bed alone and felt lonely...

Knock knock.

There was a knock at the door.

After that, a voice came from outside.

"Um, it’s Cathy. May I come in for a little while?"
