Chapter 139 – The Personal History of a Certain Slave (1/2)
ある奴隷の身の上
The Personal History of a Certain Slave
On the bed.
I gazed at the exhausted Neora who was lying down with her legs crossed.
「Ah」
Neora let out a quiet groan.
I lightly touched her shoulder, and her body was pulled to the opposite direction.
「Oh?」
It was the technique which Neora used during practice with me; I was also giving her guidance on how to use it.
When I thought that it was interesting, I felt something soft on the back of my head.
I was resting my head on her l thighs——the so-called lap-pillow.
「You can even use it like that?」
「Yes. Um……」
「Hm?」
「I heard from Niki-chan that Kakeru-sama really likes this. That’s why…」
Neora anxiously said, looking embarrassed.
Does she even have to be embarrassed about this after having sex with me?
「Yeah, I love it. It’s the best thing ever when a good woman lets me do this」
「Hoh……um, I’m sorry」
「Hm?」
「It was my first time……so I was clumsy」
「Don’t worry about it. There’s a first time for everything」
「Yes… But was it alright?」
「What do you mean?」
「Such an inexperienced girl like me being your partner… Well, I thought that Kakeru-sama wouldn’t take virgins like us」
「Who’s spewing such horse-shit?」
I rose from Neora’s thighs.
「Ah……」
She made a slightly lonely face.
「Do it again」
「……yes!」
Neora used her technique again and made me rest my head on her thighs.
While enjoying the soft sensation of her lap-pillow, I questioned Neora.
「Who was the one that spread that kinda rumor?」
「Err……Rather than someone spreading rumors, I think it’s just that we’ve generally accepted it as such」
「”We”? You mean the slaves?」
Neora nodded.
「We figured, since Kakeru-sama is surrounded by such beautiful Princesses and Queens, he wouldn’t bother with clumsy virgins like us」
「That’s not the case」
「But……」
「If it’s a good woman, I’ll embrace her. It doesn’t matter if she’s a virgin or not. To make it simple…」
I pointed at Elearnor, who was leaning against the wall.
「…she was used goods, you see」
（Don’t drag me into this! And ‘used goods’ my butt!）
Eleanor loudly protested. It was an exceptionally loud voice that made my head ring.
Oh well, I’ll ignore her.
「I see」
「Even so, the rumor did spread, huh. ……Neora」
「Yes, what is it?」
「You’re the captain of the Second Platoon, right?」
「Yes……?」
「Alright」
I rose and got off the bed.
「Gather everyone from the Second Platoon. I’ll bed all of them at once」 [TN: Alpha as fuck]
「Y-Yes!」
Neora hurriedly got off the bed.
She helped me get dressed, then put on some clothes and left the room.
I took my time following after her, in order to make preparations.
「Even bad rumors have their good points」
（Kuku. Come to think of it, you’ve only slept with virgins so far. That said, it really is just a bad rumor, saying that you don’t do virgins）
「So you haven’t forgotten about yourself?」
I poked Elearnor.
（That was genuinely the first time I had a baby）
「……heh」
I stopped and looked at Eleanor.
Wait a minute, does that mean she was also a virgin?
But she’s a Cursed Sword, so I don’t know.
I began walking again, catching up with Neora.
（More importantly, was it true?）
「Hm?」
（Are you not interested in virgins?）
「I don’t really care. Virgin or not, it means little with a good woman」
（I see）
Eleanor’s voice was somewhat soft. It was subtle enough that I wasn’t sure if Eleanor herself was aware of it.
I walked down the hallway and arrived at the entrance of the barracks.
There, I saw Neora standing still.
「Neoーー」
（Something seems off）
Eleanor’s tone suddenly changed.
I stopped my feet and observed.
Neora was maintaining a door-opening pose, and I could sense the presence of people beyond that point.
「I didn’t say anything weird. You know that, don’t you?」
「……yes」
Neora was casting her eyes down and nodding reluctantly.
