Chapter 6 (1/2)

Chapter 1 「Female Knight Iona②」

「That’s why I told you to strip」

I pulled the sword pointed at her neck and said.

「It’s as you say. I feel ashamed to swallow the saliva I spit but allow me to take of my armor」

「Yeah」

That was my intention from the start. It seems that there’s no problems.

「Then, Excuse me」

Obtaining my permission, Iona began to take off her armor.

「Sorry to keep you waiting」

Taking of her armor, the body with a delicate line was exposed.

She’s slim overall having no wasteful flesh.

But on the other hand, the size of her chest is humble.

It’s a minus to a woman but it’s easy to move, so it’s an advantage for a knight.

Unless I ask Iona the question, I will have no way to find out.

「Our situation is the same with this」

I glanced at Iona’s appearance that became light and said.

「Yes. The match had already ended and it resuled as my loss」

「Yeah, about that」

「What is it?」

「Don’t count what happened a while ago. It’s not interesting if the match isn’t fair」

Saying that, she showed a surprised face.

「Are you saying that you want to fight equally till the end?」

「That’s right. Also…」

「Also?」

「I want to know more about you. It’s easier to learn it by having a match using swords」

「…Are you trying to court me?」

「I don’t care if you think so. I’m interested in you」

「…You’re really not just a prince」

「Didn’t I tell you that I’m a self indulgent foolish prince, right?」

「I can’t agree with that. A master of sword like you can’t be seen like that」

「I’ll receive that first words of praise. I’m honored」

「I can’t promise to keep up with your expectations」

Iona continued her introductory remarks.

「I’m grateful for the chance given. I’ll be serious this time is what I want to say but I’ve hit with all of my force a while ago」

「Well, you have your armor on a while ago. Expect to move better this time」

「Please let me endeavor even if my power is inferior」

She answered.

She’s a serious woman in all respects.

「Since it’s rare, why don’t we make it a match of 10? If you can take one then it’s your victory」

「Please don’t make light of me, is what I want to say but that’s the extend of the difference between you and me」

The seems to understand as she didn’t insult. She’s a smart woman.

「Being calm is also good. That’s the most necessary quality to survive」

A calm person doesn’t necessarily win the match. But, it’s certain that the calm wins has more cases.

I think Iona has a good nature.

「I’m thankful for your praise. This time I’ll challenge you with all of my mind」

Fully realizing my ability, Her eyes says that she’s not a person who gave it up.

Though I enjoy an equal match the most, I don’t hate the match where I make the opponent give up because of the difference in ability.

This time I took a stance aiming at her eye, and face the match.

「It’s a basic posture this time」

「Well, sometimes」

「………」

Does she think of my att.i.tude as suspicious? Iona doesn’t begin easily.

The moment I thought so she swung her sword.

She’s not just smart but also great in tactics.

At any rate, I draw out a slash after confirming that Iona made a slash.

Still, my sword catches her faster. Of course, I stopped it before I made a hit.

「I’m defeated…」

The woman who declared giving up had a face seeing something unbelievable.

「That’s first」

「It’s clear that you moved later than me yet…」

「This is more or less a hero’s bloodline. This may sound like priding but you can think of my physical strength being different from normal people」

「This is a Hero’s bloodline power…」

Iona swallowed her saliva.

「That’s how it is. Brace yourself and come!」

「Yes Then second round please」

……。

………。

………。

Though there’s the difference in ability, Iona kept challenging me without any signs of giving up.

Even if she fought me with her earnest, it’s like having practice for me.

I enjoyed my match with her from the bottom of my heard while swinging my sword.

She challenged me, aimed at the counter, learned various ways to win by trial and error yet she was never able to beat me.

I was going easy on her because it won’t be a practice if I win overwhelmingly, I set my attack to have a gap to some degree and have her take them.

……。

………。

…………。

The tenth ended with my victory.

「Haa…haa…haa…Thank you very much…」

The woman is breathing heavily and my breathing isn’t disturbed at all. Because my the amount of movement is far superior, it’s natural I must say.

I controlled Iona’s movement to my on continence so I hardly moved at all.

「It’s my win. Or do you still want to continue?」

「No, there’s no doubt that it’s my complete defeat」

The woman who regained her breath answered.

She has the ability but she can understand the difference with me.

Though she’s said to be a knight she’s resolute.

「I’d say this, you’re not weak. I’m just too strong so don’t mind it」

It’s not to comfort her but this is the truth.

I basically hunt a dangerous demon that would take a party to take down alone.

Of course it’s not all of my ability, add the rare magic that I obtained in a labyrinth dungeon, equipment, the strong brave arts is considered, I think of arranging such environment with such ability. 1

Anyway, my ability is out of standards.

I seem to be arrogant but comparing to me is a mistake.

At least, her ability as a swordsman isn’t behind a demon.

As expected the person who’s been selected as a candidate to give birth to my child, very nice.

「I’m very sorry for the rude att.i.tude I made a while ago. How should I really apologize…」

Making a complete turn, she meekly apologizes with eyes that wears respect.

「Don’t mind it. I don’t mind it anyway」

I said that to end the talk.

「I’ve racked some sweat. let’s go to the bedroom while sweating」

「Roger」

She nodded obediently.

「I’ll give you lots of love」

When I said that, her cheeks turned to red.

……。

………。

…………。

Thus, after making much sweat, I took the beautiful female knight to the bed.

Far from two, the bed has room for four people to sleep in, I am sitting on the bed waiting for Iona.

There’s also the thing as first time so she’s was.h.i.+ng her body deliberately.

Feeling hard from such thoughts, she finally appeared.

「I’m sorry to make you waiting. Yusharurushu-sama」

Her hair is untied, her cheeks blushed red slightly, my first impression was from the girl I would have s.e.x with is like a different person.

「You can call me Sharuru. My name is long after all」

「Yes. I’ll call you that way then, Sharuru-sama」

Iona that’s wrapped in clothes answered.

This bedroom helps me to get s.e.xually aroused, they’re overall provocative, having various designs, underwear and night clothes for women are arranged by size.

The night wear are all see through, the undergarment they substantially choose is completely exposed.

I can help her put on what I like but I left it to Iona so I can see her sense.

That’s why Iona wears a white see through long slip dress.

Though her underwear is completely exposed I guess her only resistance is to wear something long.

Her underwear is a white lace bra and panties.

It seems that she prefers a womanly design of lace and ribbon on contrary to her dignified impression.

It’s commonly called 「Dressing up in a place that’s not seen」

The design is quite adult, the panties has a string attached to make it easy to take off.

「Iona’s choice is quite bold」

I just met her today but I hadn’t had that kind of thought. The image and gap is too much.

「I heard that gentlemen liked such underwear of the manager maid. …Is it shameless?」

「You put it on for my sake right? It suits you well」

「Thank you for your praise」

Though she’s embarra.s.sed, she doesn’t cover with her hand while approaching me.

It seems that she had resolved to be embraced by me.

「I may be inexperienced but best regards」

She kneeled down in front of me, thrust three fingers and bowed her head.2

It’s different from when we had a match, she’s quite modest.

「You don’t have to be ceremonious. I’m not used to formalities」

「No, I want to keep my courtesy to you」

「All of the men I’ve seen until now are just mere lip-service, though I’m a woman, men are inferior to me so I look down on men」

「Oh. There’s that kind of people」

Though I am the youngest in the royal family, my mother who received me doesn’t desire for position of power as I am enough for her, my other brothers are far aged from me, I also lack the teeth either3, my probability of succeeding the throne is near zero, I was looked down on but not neglected fortunately.

I’m great as I’m in the hero bloodline but I don’t care about power, or I’m great because I’m a man, or women should follow men, or I don’t think of methods.4 An excellent human isn’t about young or old, woman or man.

「But, you’re different from the men. You accepted my sword fair and square, you crushed my pride that I have no room to doubt」

It’s the ability that made a woman weaker than a man. It might be her first time to meet a man that’s more skillful than her.

I listened to her while thinking that.

「I thought that I can devote myself to that bout」5

「I don’t intend to feel bad even if you say that, I won’t listen to it if you’re just recognizing the power」6
