I was satisfied with my sex life in Japan, and before I knew it, it had been three weeks since I’d returned from the other world. That was fast.
I was living a life where I creampie Minato and Kurumi’s womb on my day offs. Of course, I’m also working at Tenyoushuu. Just yesterday, I had a heated battle with an old man who is in a Swallow Oni class.
And since there’s only one more magic stone left in stock, I think it’s time to purchase new ones.
I haven’t been to the other side for a long time. I think it’s about time I made contact with Erinabelle and Filmeria.
「And so. I’ll go look for the stones tomorrow 」
「I don’t know how you get there, but…」
By the way, I haven’t used the double sensitivity lewd skill on Minato since that day.
It consumes a lot of hero points and we can’t talk to each other so there’s no communication.
It’s definitely a lewd skill I would use frequently if I had enough points. Man, seeing Minato’s dignified aura break that day was so good.
I parted ways with Minato and went home. On the way home, I bought some steak from the supermarket.
But it’s not just any steak. I’m getting Wagyu steak! Of course, Cui has their share too. You’re asking me how did I get something so rich?
「That’s because I got paid!」
Yes. I got my salary from Tenyou Development deposited into my account.
But it’s not the full amount. I haven’t been in the company for a month yet. Although the salary is based on on Annual Salary system, the first month of employment is prorated. Still, the amount is better than my previous job.
But it does lift up my spirits. I went home and put out the frying pan to start cooking the steaks.
『Ooh. This smells better than the last steak I had』
「Of course! I haven’t had Wagyu steak in years!」
Grilled nice and rare, I sliced it to the size Cui could eat. Then, I plated it up and sprinkled some salt and pepper.
「Here you go」
『My…』
As Cui began to eat the meat, I now cooked my own portion. I cooked the second one to about medium, then placed it on a plate and sprinkled some salt and pepper. Then, I microwaved some rice and immediately threw the meat into my mouth.
「Damn! So good! The meat is so soft」
I enjoy the flavor of the meat on my tongue while eating rice. This is the best match!
『Hmmm. This is not bad. I thought that the tender steak and other meat were rotten, but Wagyu itself isn’t bad…』
「Man, could it hurt you to say that it’s good?」
Well, maybe it prefers meat to be tender and hard. I’d like to offer my heartfelt thanks to the people in the livestock industry, including the cow making this Wagyu beef.
Cui continued eating. It’s already a familiar sight, but the mystery of where the flesh is stored is still unsolved.
「I mean… You only eat meat. Is your health alright?」
『It’s foolish to compare me to a human』
「That’s the first time I’m called foolish」
I hear that mostly in games. Although I’ve been told similar words as a working adult.
「Well, for now. We’ll go back to the other world for the first time in a while. Then, I’ll have sex with Erinabelle and bring home some magic stones」
『Hmm. The magic stones we couldn’t take home last time should still be in Erinabelle’s room』
Yes. That. We had 15 magic stones on us but we only brought back 3 of them. I’m Erinabelle’s servant over there. If I help out with work again, they can provide more magic stones.
「It’s been the first time since I’ve been out for so many days in another world, so I’m looking forward to it」
I sent a message to Kurumi that I won’t be able to contact her for several days. Now then, it’s been a while since I visited the other world. I’m looking forward to it.

Yugdovan Kainzbern The younger brother of the current emperor, Aranx, and a prince competing for the emperor’s throne.
Unlike his brother, he has a well-balanced and clean look and blonde hair with no curls. His current hair is all-black, which highlights the manly look on his face.
He’s now holding a meeting in a room of his mansion with the leaders of the liberation army.
「Good job hiding in the Capital for long. Alchrom」
「Yes. I’m very sorry, I didn’t expect Cerialis to appear」
Alchrom creaks his brows. But, Yugdovan shook his head.
「I’m just glad you returned safely」
「Your Highness」
「Hahaha! I told you, His Highness isn’t someone who cares about that, Chrom」
Shouted by a big man with black hair and black eyes. He laughs vigorously and slams Alchrom’s back.
「Stop it, Liebel, 」
「Oh? Hey, I’m just happy that you’re safe too!」
The man’s name is Liebel Fortmac. His name is Liebel, the monster bird user. He’s the man Erinabelle mistook Touya for.
「So… That was a setup by Anberta, the 8th seat of the 12 generals?」
「The expression “Set up” isn’t right. But, we’re able to roughly investigate the areas they’re in charge, and the routes of their patrols」
「Then, I’ll leave the rest to Hectain’s men. What are your thoughts, Your Highness?」
Yugdovan nodded with a soft smile as Liebel looked at him.
「You’re right. He also has several trusted followers. I’m sure he’ll do well. Besides, we have some things we need to do in the meantime」
Saying that Yugdovan turned his body to the elderly man sitting at the back of the room. The man nods back.
「Rufred. I’m able to get him to the negotiation table…」
「Seriously?!」
The old man’s name was Godwin Ivanleif. He’s a substantial patron of the liberation army.
There are several great Lords in the Kainzbern empire. Among the great lords were the royal families that were once annexed by the empire, and they had great influence in the terms of size of the territory they ruled, their financial power, and their military power.
Most of the great lords were in Aranx’s camp, and Godwin was the only nobleman accompanying Yugdovan’s camp.
And now, they’re negotiating with Rufrred, another Great Lord. The content was of course, about joining Yugdovan’s camp.
「He hasn’t decided to join yet. But the date and place for negotiations have been decided. The location will be within Rufred territory」
「I’ll go directly to the negotiation」
「Wha?」
Yugdovan intends to personally negotiate with Rufred. Naturally, Alchrom and his colleagues can’t overlook the risk.
「That’s too dangerous, Your Highness. What would happen to the country if anything happened to you? The Rufreds joined Aranx first, so they can’t be trusted at all!」
「I agree with Chrom. Your Highness. Rufred’s son is one of the 12 generals. Please don’t act rashly」
It’s not unusual for the general to enter enemy territory directly. It could be a trap. However, Yugdovan pulled his smile back and looked at Alchrom and everyone with a serious face.
「The future of the Liberation army and the Empire is at stake in these negotiations. I want to ask Lord Rufred what he wants to do with this empire personally. What kind of future is he envisioning?」
Yugdovan has a strong vision for his ideal Empire. Some people laugh it off as a pipe dream. No, most of them wouldn’t even listen saying that it’s a funny story.
But there’s passion in his words, and some were inspired. Alchrom and his colleagues saw hope in Yugdovan’s vision.
「Besides. This is how we get our opportunity to negotiate. Wouldn’t it be rude if I didn’t personally attend?」
「Your Highness, it should be them coming to our side. Not you visiting them!」
Alchrom still opposes it, but Yugdovan makes it clear.
「I’m just a noble who was born in the royal family. Besides, if we argue who’s at the top or bottom, then we’ll never break from the tradition of the empire. That said, I’m also scared and timid. I’ll have you escort me during the negotiations, Alchrom」
「Y-Your Highness…」
Yugdovan had called back Alchrom who had been hiding in the capital for that purpose.
Alchrom can wield the Phantom Tools of the empire, and he’s undoubtedly an important force for the liberation army. And so, Alchrom’s shoulders tremble in joy at the fact that Yugdovan relies on him.
Yugdovan meanwhile was enthusiastic about the negotiations. If things go well, two great lords will become his allies. This could cause a major stir in the current situation.
(Besides. In case I couldn’t persuade them, Lord Rufred wouldn’t be a partner that could walk along the future of the Empire either way)
Yugdovan believed the unification of ideas was more important, rather than profit or loss.
No matter how many financial and material assets they have, he cannot accept people who have a different vision from the empire he aspires to have. The only people fighting together are those Yugdovan approves.
For that reason, he declined all the offers of assistance from foreign powers.
On the other hand, as long as they’re sympathetic to his ideology, he cares not about their status or birth. However, there’s a good chance that Rufred will put Godwin in the negotiations.
(The Liberation Army’s concern is how to contain Cerialis, the first seat of the 12 Generals. Or maybe, having her join as an ally. However, if the rumors are true, there are some ways to make it)
If only the Rufred house would change sides. Many of the nobles close to the Rufred house will also join the Liberation Army camp. Then, that would create an opening in the Aranx camp.
However, even if the negotiations go well, it would still be premature to rely on force. There are several reasons for this. The capital has Cerialis. That’s a big deal.
She’s the first user of Elgram, the first holy sword, after 1000 years. Her ability is nothing to scoff at. Some say that Cerialis is the hero of prophecy.
Yugdovan’s a little skeptical about the prophecy. But, the situation where her brother is the rumored hero of prophecy was not good.
That said, it would be hard to defeat Cerialis. But, they have to somehow contain Cerialis’ movement. Meanwhile, a rumor began to flow from a nobleman from the pro-liberation army faction in the capital.
(Cerialis is a homosexual, and she has feelings for her younger sister, Avis… The rumors aren’t confirmed, but if true… Then we need to take Avis out of the capital)
If possible, take Avis and Cerialis to their side. Even if that’s not possible, then keep Avis in their hands. Cerialis will be unable to carelessly take on the Liberation Army.
(Either way, it’s not enough information. Let’s tackle how to handle the upcoming negotiation for now)
Yugdovan turned his gaze to the future with that in mind.
