Chapter 832: Heroism and Harem【Corti】
Polka’s autumn is short. Really short. This time last year, I was preparing for the Great Monster Invasion and could only return occasionally, but spending autumn here like this, I can feel the coolness turning into cold with each passing day. There’s no time to leisurely talk about the harvest season. It’s a fast-forward countdown to winter hibernation. Come to think of it, what are we actually doing about this year’s Great Monster Invasion? Wait, saying 「hat are we doing?」 like it’s someone else’s problem……that’s a bit off, isn’t it? Whether we participate or ignore it, it’s not an official Celesta Army operation. So, does that mean throwing the decision to Dianne-san is also out of line? But just barging into Renfangas with seven dragons……wait, Shario and the others are technically supposed to be non-combatants, right? Though it feels like that’s already starting to loosen up. Anyway, having the other four dragons just freely exterminating monsters everywhere seems too reckless and likely to cause problems. In any case, acting on my own isn’t good. Even if I’m the one who ultimately decides whether to do it or not, I need to discuss it widely. Yeah.
And the immediate problem is Princess Ran. Regarding how to deal with her and her homeland, while the matter has been relayed to Christie through Irina, I judged it hadn’t been sufficiently communicated to the other girls. So, I spoke with the knight girls from the Gauntlet and Ace Knight, who are likely to be mainly involved, and with Dianne after the privately held dance ended. And then.
“That’s about right, I suppose”
“I can understand the princess’s feelings. Though I do find it somewhat lacking in grace”
Anzeros and Aurora accepted the princess’s insistence, though they wore somewhat complicated expressions at her willingness to stake her own life.
“I see. Well, if she’s in a position where she’s treated so badly anyway, I can’t help but think she should just pretend she’s dead and make a quick getaway”
“Umm. Things tend to work out surprisingly well. There are real-life examples like myself and the Knight Chief”
“For a young human like her, who’s only lived a dozen years or so, it’s rather harsh to suddenly tell her to abandon her position and become free. Besides, I had my brother and Berga from the start, so I don’t think I can serve as a reference”
The three Gauntlet knight members, excluding the absent Tetes, seemed reasonably convinced. As for Dianne-sam.
“……That’s a task for the future”
She murmured. Confused, I sought help from Irina with my eyes. Irina flicked her hand upward.
“What is it? If it’s a challenge, don’t be so mysterious”
“It’s about how to act as a dragon rider. I can’t very well tell Andy to restrain himself from acting boldly as a dragon rider……but if problems keep arising because he acts so freely, then perhaps we need some sort of manual for handling them”
“You mean make rigid rules for dragon riders to follow?”
“Certainly not. If others tried to shackle Andy’s judgment, the dragons themselves wouldn’t accept it, would they? Creating manuals is for us—those who support and supplement”
Perched on a log stool (or rather, a log cut into a suitable length), Dianne surveyed the female slaves and raised a finger.
“Until now, the 『Special Duty Squad』 could shift some blame for mistakes onto the Elven territories or the Celesta Army. It was also a scale where I could handle the command effectively. But from now on, any activities using dragons will place all responsibility squarely on Andy. Therefore, we who accompany him must also recognize this anew and be prepared to share that responsibility”
“Eh? You mean make the female slaves take responsibility for the dragons too?”
Naris grimaced, but Dianne narrowed her eyes.
“It’s merely a 『Resolution』. ……If Naris had that, her rash actions in the hot spring labyrinth wouldn’t have happened”
“Ugh”
To begin with, if Naris hadn’t gone off alone to pee, nothing would have happened. We would’ve all enjoyed the hot springs, casually sampled local cuisine, and then confirmed the comfort of the 『Flying Sexroom』 before calling it a day. Even if we’d somehow come into contact with the princess and Fiona, there would have been more room to cover it up. ……When pressed on that point, Naris could only resign herself and fall silent.
“It can’t be denied that everyone else also had that complacency—thinking everything would be easy if the dragon was on our side. And above all, Andy is a man who can’t abandon a tragedy right before his eyes. If you think that accumulation attracts important things, then there should be a logic to each person’s behavior”
“Stay away from trouble, don’t let the dragon rider’ authority be used, don’t cause worry……well, it’s only natural, I suppose”
“Ugh, please don’t pick on me. If I’d been alone, I could’ve just slipped through the situation, you know?”
Anzeros counted on her fingers while Naris made herself small. However, Leda and Emma, who had been silent, stepped forward decisively.
“That sounds like you’re resentful of our master achieving greatness as a hero”
“If push comes to shove, we can handle human affairs discreetly or however necessary”
But two senior dragons stepped in to restrain them.
“Know your place”
“That’s presumptuous”
The dragon beauties and human beauties glared at each other.
“We serve a great rider! Are you deliberately hindering his activities, Laila-dono!?”
“No”
“You don’t understand, even after we made a contract with you”
“What do you……”
Emma joined Leda’s outburst, but I suddenly grabbed both silver dragons’ behinds from behind.
“!”
“Master……!?”
I shrugged at the startled pair, meeting Laila and Maia’s eyes. Yeah. That’s right. I didn’t want dragons to become a great hero.
“Leda. Emma. ……If you’ve forgotten, I’ll remind you: I didn’t put collars on you because I wanted 『Dragons』”
“Ah……”
“……But”
“Laila and the others get it perfectly. I sometimes forget myself too. ……I give you collars because I want to do naughty things with beautiful women……it’s not about making the world better or giving some faceless stranger some vague, undefined happiness. If I keep getting tangled up in one incident after another, I won’t be able to do naughty things with you girls I finally got. That’s the worst possible outcome”
Yeah. Everyone keeps praising me, so sometimes I feel like I really have to act like a 「Hero」. But the thing I, who built the unbeatable harem, have to do most is have endless sexy times with the girls I want to make happy. Everything else is just stuff I have to handle so I can drown in eroticism—it’s not higher priority than that.
“Ho. Don’t forget. If you are a dragon……precisely because you are a dragon, do not be swayed by the honors of the human world. No matter how foolish others may think you, you must not trample your master’s happiness for your own desires”
“Our duty is to have sex with Andy-sama. Being used as a seed sack, milked dry the moment we’re filled, is our honor”
Maia smiled faintly, running her hand over her lower abdomen over her fancy clothes, exuding a spine-tingling sensuality. And then, barging in from the side was Corti.
“Well, in that sense, we’re simpler and better off, right♪ We couldn’t help this guy become a hero from the start anyway, so we just need to think about his cock!♪”
“Ah!”
“Corti”
Shario and Leyla, who were intimidating the surroundings in their dragon forms, raised reproachful voices at Corti, who had already latched onto them from the side and promptly shoved her hands into my trousers. But hey, the conversation had taken a lewd turn anyway, so it was first come, first served. Fortunately, the princess and Fiona had been sent back to the Baron’s residence immediately after a quick bath (especially since having Fiona present during the explanation would have complicated things).
“It seems we’re finally getting somewhere”
“We’ve been waiting impatiently”
“Well, since I’ve dressed up like this, I suppose I must be rewarded with seed juice, don’t you think?♪”
“I wonder if my turn will come before morning……”
Starting with Anzeros, Aurora, Irina, and Christie, who had danced earlier, the female slaves present all began undressing.
That night truly stretched into morning, and no one put clothes back on until the sun was high, the sounds of their playful voices echoing continuously.
Several days passed. I returned to my original intent, diligently thrusting my cock into every girl who came to the secret hot spring.
“You don’t have to go back sometimes……n, n♪”
“If anything changes, she’ll come tell me……hmm, I’m gonna cum, Corti……!”
“Ahaa……it’s fine……if no one comes, I get your cock all to myself……♪”
It gets crazy busy when there are lots of people, but sometimes only the black collars are in the hot spring. For now, I’m killing time by endlessly shooting load after load into Corti, who’s floating her ass in the water. Shario and Leyla are watching enviously, but right now I feel more like continuing to fuck her than switching asses one after another, so I’ll do just that. Well, I’ve already gone about fifteen times, so I’m thinking maybe it’s time to try Shario next.
“Ahh, bliss……if I got pregnant from this, it’d be even happier. Hey, cum inside me again while you chant the spell♪”
“The spell……”
“The one where you fuck me while chanting get pregnant, get pregnant”
“That’s not a spell……”
Corti is thoroughly enjoying her life as a female slave.
