Volume 7 Chapter 94, Magic Sword ~ 02
Satoru, who had unexpectedly laid his body on top of Liz, gently woke up, being careful not to wake Liz, who had fallen asleep.
「Hmm......」
He re-cover over the half-elf girl, who twitching away, and touched her silky hair. He can't thank this girl enough for declaring that she would follow Satoru and encouraging him to risk his own life for her. His heart was still swirling with mixed emotions, but now that he had decided to accept her, he had no choice but to be determined.
Satoru stood up, letting the sound of his footsteps creep up. Once again, he checks his physical condition. His knots ache and his body feels a little heavier because he has been asleep for so long, but that's all.
Satoru takes a breath and continues to walk with his bare feet. Looking at his watch, Satoru is relieved to see that the time is ticking. The watch was automatic and he had been asleep for so long that the mainspring might have run out. The day was three days past, just as Liz had said.
Satoru stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the lantern light leaking out.
It had been three days since he had lost consciousness ― once again, Satoru was confronted with this fact.
According to Liz's story, after he collapsed, only his eyes opened the next day, but two days had passed without his regaining consciousness. Leia and Rico took the lead in taking care of him after he collapsed, but when he thought of how much heartache they must have gone through while he was unconscious, he felt a sense of regret and at the same time a subtle difficulty in meeting with them.
However, he can't avoid meeting them. At the moment, his body is fine, if a little heavy, and he must show them that he is feeling better. Surely they are waiting for that more than anything else.
――Eey, just go. Satoru, with a strong determination, peeked into the darkness where he could see signs of people.
「―Good morning」
「Satoru!」
「My Lord!」
「Danna-sama!」
Rico, Leia, and Minerva each raise their voices. The expressions on their faces are a mixture of surprise, joy, and relief. The ratio differs from person to person.
「I've put you through a lot of trouble these past few days. I'm sorry and thank you.」
Although Liz had told him not to apologize, all that came out of his mouth were words of apology. Rico was the first to jump into Satoru's arms as everyone walked up to him at once.
「Are you all right? You're fine, right?」
Rico looks up at Satoru with moist eyes as if she is hanging on to him. Satoru put his hand on top of Rico's head and smiled softly.
「Yeah, I'm all right now.」
Rico's eyes slowly filled with tears at the sight of Satoru's soft smile, and the tears began to flow out in droplets. Rico sat down and fell on her face as if she had lost her strength, while Satoru grabbed her by the chest and did not let go.
「I'm glad...... really, I'm really glad」
Her voice is completely shaky with tears. Tears blossom into droplets on the floor.
「I wondered what would happen if Satoru stayed like that. ...... I'm glad!」
「Really.」
Leia agreed, her eyes red too, and sniffing. Satoru gently held Rico, who began to cry aloud, and patted her on the back, feeling remorseful.
He did not know why he had lost consciousness for three days, but it was his fault that the girls had been traumatized. Leia looked at Satoru, who was about to open his mouth, and Leia shook her head from side to side.
「Don't apologize, my Lord. We only did what we should have done as the Lord's Magical Slaves.」
「Good grief, Leia is so stubborn.」
Satoru caught off guard, chuckled bitterly. Knowing how much Leia cared for him, he couldn't help but feel a twinge in his eye.
「Can you say that about others?」
A laugh escaped. Satoru is aware that he is a stubborn man.
「......You know, Danna-sama. Are you feeling better?」」
Minerva, who approached Satoru with a smile on her face, asked with teary eyes and timidly. Of course, he know she was worried about him. In the past, she would have hugged him first thing.
「Yeah, maybe. I'm sorry, Minerva. I'm sorry I had to keep you for a while.」
「It's not just Minerva. Leia and Rico were also held back.」
Minerva must be holding back because Rico is hanging on to him. It is definitely a growth for her to be able to care about others as well as herself in this way. Satoru smiled and extended his right arm. Minerva jumps into Satoru's chest with a big smile.
Leia is just watching the scene. Apparently, the presence of other people's eyes makes her take a step or two back. Satoru is aware of this side of her, so after he holds Minerva in his chest, he beckons her toward Leia. If Satoru had invited her, she would have no choice but to accept. Satoru pulled Leia's hand, who still approached him with some reserve, somewhat forcefully, and kissed her on the cheek. With the words, "Thank you". Leia also broke her phase, breathed a sigh of relief, and clung to Satoru's arm.
After sharing the impression of Satoru's healing, Satoru declares,
「I'm going to revive Solor.」
The three nodded in unison and quickly moved away from Satoru's side. Leia pointed to a lump of cloth-covered like a mummy, where Solor must be sleeping. Everyone already recognizes Solor, who protected Minerva and Rico until her magical power ran out, knowing that she would be unable to move herself. Satoru grabbed Rico's shoulder as she took the initiative to untie the piece of cloth. Rico looks back at Satoru with confused eyes.
「Rico. I'm sorry, but I need you to wet mine.」
「Mmm.」
At Satoru's request, Rico nodded with bewitching eyes. Of the three present, Rico is the most skillful in oral sex. Leia and Minerva are aware of this, so they have nothing to complain about. Rico knelt down in front of Satoru and removed his trousers and underpants at once with a familiar gesture. She then sucks Satoru's meaty cock into her mouth.
「Chuchu......liick-lick......nfuh......」
Rico carefully licks, sucks, and wets the tip of the penis, which quickly grows in her mouth and almost grabs the back of her throat. Suddenly, she notices a different taste on Satoru's penis, but the joy of regaining his penis quickly drowns out her suspicions. Covered with her own saliva, Rico spat the penis out of her mouth and carefully kissed the bell mouth.
「Good. It's getting big now.」
Her expression was one of relief. The only thing she can think of is that Satoru, who had no idea that he was being tested when he was unconscious, must have been worried in that sense as well. Leia, with Minerva's help, was removing the cloth that was wrapped around Solor.
Is this fine? Rico looks up at him while kneeling down, and Satoru pats her head, then bends down and kisses her on the cheek.
「Rico, too, I want to hold you later.」
「...... yeah」
Getting a little teary-eyed again, Rico nodded with a soft smile. It was definitely Rico who felt the strongest frustration at the thought of losing her place beside Satoru, which she had finally obtained. Even though he did not intentionally lose consciousness, Satoru felt sorry for what he had done. What can I do for the girl who has fought so hard against reality, cheering her heart that is on the verge of collapse? For now, all I can do is show her that I am fine
「Minerva too~!」
Minerva raised her hand high in the air and smiled at Satoru as if to say, "Of course".
「Of course. Leia, too, right?」
He looks back to Leia as well. Leia smiled a little shyly.
「I have nothing to say no to you, my Lord. And I'm happy too.」
Satoru smiled a little at Leia's reaction, as usual, and looked down at Solor, who was lying at his feet. Solor's white skin, one of her most attractive features, is now clean and spotless. This is a result of Leia's specialty, the 【Regeneration】 art of the Holy system. The life force of the patient is also essential to the treatment of a physical type of art. To treat Solor, who has lost all her magical power and is lifeless, requires fine control of the Holy Arts, but Leia is indeed a specialist in the Holy Arts, and not a single mistake was found.
Satoru leaned over Solor without question, spreading her labia with his fingertips and pressing against his penis, which had been soaked profusely by Rico. Of course, Solor is not wet, because there was no vital activity, and although it was supposed to be a heated organ, it was abnormally cold, no colder than Liz's at the time of the life-threatening incident.
Once again, he's thankful that Solor is a different kind of being and that she knew this would happen to her and still protected Minerva and Rico. I'm not into necrophilia, Satoru thought for a moment, then gave a small shake of his head and sent his hips in.
「Nggghhhh.」
He couldn't help but let out a cry at the unimaginably cold temperature inside her vagina. He endures the heat being taken from his penis, and he feels as if he's about to wilt rapidly. Her vagina is stretchy, though, so it's not a problem―It occurred to Satoru that he did not necessarily have to ejaculate. The situation is different from that of Liz, only that there is a pseudo-magical stone, which is her nucleus, around her womb. If it is okay to penetrate using his hand in, there should be no need for him to ejaculate.
Satoru imagines. He sends the torrent inside himself through his penis. He doesn't know the details, but he imagines it like the art of lovemaking, slowly sending the flow inside himself into Solor.
And the beautiful woman he was constructing reacted with a twitch. Her vagina began to undulate, and her love juices oozed out.
「...... restart confirmed. Thank you very much, Master」
Solor blinked a few times, then seemed to understand the situation, made a lewd expression, and raised her voice to Satoru. He heard Rico's voice saying, "I'm glad," and Minerva and Leia sighed with relief as well. Looks like I don't need to ejaculate after all―Satoru pulled his penis out of Solor's vagina with a slide. Solor reacted with a twitch. I wondered if it was my imagination that she looked a little regretful?
「Good morning, Solor.」
Satoru smiled softly at the doll, who woke up safely and adored himself as a master.
「I have to thank you, too.」
At the sound of Satoru's voice, Solor looked at him with a confused expression.
「No, I didn't do anything」
「No. You protected Rico and Minerva until the very last minute using all your magical power. I can't tell you how much that meant to me.」
Satoru shuddered to think what would have happened if Solor had not been there. If Minerva had been exposed to the super-dense torrent of energy at close range, even Minerva, who boasts of her physical strength, would not have been able to endure it. The same can be said for Rico, who was straddling Minerva because Solor used all her magical power to overcome the torrent at close range and was able to withstand it to a distance where its power was somewhat diminished. It was also a fine play by Leia, who deployed Solor in that direction just in case.
Solor was about to say something when she stopped, raised herself, and condescendingly bowed.
「I am happy to receive the Master's appreciation. Hopefully, we can continue to be good in the future.」
「Yeah」
Unlike Leia, Rico, Minerva, and Liz, the emotions in her heart are extremely thin. Just as a newborn chick regards the first person it sees as its parent, she regards the person who pours magic power into her life as her master. Satoru has also changed his mind about Solor a little.
Rico and Leia approach Solor, Leia with a diagnosis, and Rico with a tailor-made outfit for Solor. The clothes she was wearing at the time of the accident are now in tatters from the impact of the accident, and since there are no more replacements, she has to buy new clothes. Leia's 【Diagnosis】 also determined that there was nothing wrong, and Satoru breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked around at everyone again.
「And there is one thing I have to tell you guys.」
「...... what it is?」
It was Rico who asked back on behalf of the others. Perhaps sensing that Satoru's mood had become a little heavy, she replied seriously. Satoru took a deep breath once and then made his point.
「I'm going to add Liz to become my magical slave.」
「That ......!」
Surprised, Leia grabbed Rico's shoulder as she was about to bite him. Leia put her mouth close to Rico's ear and spoke in a whisper, then turned her worried gaze toward the Lord who had made the surprise declaration.
「......If that's what my Lord has decided, I have nothing to say against it. I can only guess how much conflict my Lord must have gone through to make that decision, but I'm sure it was hard.」
「......I'm no match for you, Leia.」
Satoru blurted out with a bitter smile. She must have seen through his own struggles ―I just don't feel bad about it. Satoru has nothing to say to her who has devoted herself so much to him as his most devoted magical slave. But, Leia has not yet told Satoru about her past.
Satoru does not remember the conflict in his inner space that led him to regain consciousness. The only thing he remembers is that he felt the need to return, to go back to the moment when it happened.
Satoru opened his mouth as if speaking to his own heart rather than to Leia.
「No matter what Liz said. I'm responsible for Reine-san's death. And at the time of her death, she left a will(message) to me, asking me to take care of her. Then, I must protect Liz.」
Therein lies the determination. He wants to repay Reine and Liz for helping him, but Reine is dead. Even with Satoru's other-dimensional soul and magical power, he cannot bring back the dead. If this is the case, it is only natural for Satoru to protect Liz in order to repay Liz, who is left alone. And it is also Reine's last will and testament.
They all gulped and stared at Satoru. But, muttered Satoru, then searched for words.
「But Liz's also told me to go back to the world I came from. She told me not to make my sister ......Alice cried.」
So, the purpose of his journey is the same as it ever was.
Facing them all squarely, Satoru bowed deeply with the face of a man who was ready.
「Leia, Rico, Minerva, and Solor. I'm sorry, but take care of me in the future.」
Someone let out a gasp. Probably Leia or Rico.
The Lord of the magical slaves bowed to his own magical slaves and asked them for a favor ― Satoru was not so arrogant, to begin with, but he had never bowed so sincerely to anyone before. Satoru's seriousness and determination were conveyed to everyone, and Leia was the first to speak back.
「I understand」
「......If that's what Satoru decided, I've got nothing to say.」
Following Leia's assuring words of acceptance, Rico, who had initially tried to bite back, returned with a small shrug. Regardless of what my opinion is, if Satoru, the principal, accepts it, then his word is absolute. The reason for this is completely ingrained in Rico.
「From now on, Liz will join us. I wonder if I can eat that sweet again.」
「Does your appetite come first?」
Everyone laughed when Minerva shouted with joy and Leia quickly interrupted her. Solor, who had re-dressed in a somewhat gaudy flashy dress for her, also nodded.
「I'll just go along with Master. ...... By the way, Master」
「Hm?」
「I wonder if I should also become a magical slave of the master. My magical power is too great for ordinary human beings to tolerate, but I believe that the Master's soul would be able to accept me with a little more ease.」
At Solor's offer, Satoru thought for a moment before turning back to Leia, Rico, and Minerva.
「......what do you think ?」
As for Satoru, he has no objection. As a magical slave, she would be able to 【Search】 and there would be no conflict in accepting her, who even risked her life to protect Minerva and Rico. However, whether the other would feel the same way is another matter. It is also a reaction to the fact that Liz decided to become a magical slave on her own without consulting with everyone.
Leia twisted her chin thoughtfully.
「I think it would be better if she could do so. But I don't know if Solor will be the subject of a Magical Slavery contract.」
「There is no need to worry about that. In our research, it has been confirmed that I am eligible for a magical contract.」
「I see」
To be honest, Leia was surprised to learn that even Solor, a Magic Doll, can sign a contract with a magical slave, which is a form of engraving on the soul. Considering her enormous magical power, it would be possible for her to increase the number of magical slaves by the hundreds on her own―Leia wonders if those places were the subject of the study.
「What about Rico, and Minerva?」
「No objections.」
「It's good to have more friends.」
Unlike her reaction at the time Liz, Rico does not seem to be opposed to Solor's entry into the magical slavery. She probably has some feelings toward Solor for having saved her own life in front of her. Minerva does not seem to be thinking much about it.
With everyone's consent, Satoru turned back to Solor.
「Well, then. Is that fine? Solor.」
「Yes, sir. I look forward to working with you.」
Solor bowed deeply. Was it my imagination that she seemed a little happy?
Solor's position, which had been somewhat unusual up until then, was now, at any rate, on a par with everyone else. That is not a bad thing.
The atmosphere at the meeting finally relaxed a little.
「So, what about Liz?」
Liz, who is also the person who awakened Satoru, was nowhere to be seen. In response to Rico's question, Satoru looked a little embarrassed.
「My futon ...... that's not it. She's sleeping in my bed. When she wakes up, I'm going to make a contract with her. Solor will come after that.」
Sleeping in Satoru's bed, where he was unconscious and asleep just a few minutes ago ― I don't know what happened, but at any rate, it is probably true that Liz's woke Satoru up. Including the fact that Liz's pleaded with him to accept herself as a magical slave, Liz's now sleeping in Satoru's bed──?
「...... guessed it. Uwahh, Satoru, you devil.」
Leia hurriedly punched Rico in the shoulder as she muttered a few words. The unexpected shoulder punch startled Rico, who turned to Leia.
「You fool! You're the one who should know! Think of our Lord until just the other day!?」
Leia's reprimand was whispered, but it reached Satoru's ears firmly. At Leia's point, Rico also instantly noticed and her face turned blue.
Satoru had been unconscious until recently. Although it was due to a combination of various factors, the strongest triggers must have been the death of Reine and the rape of Liz. Satoru was strongly shocked in his mind because he recognizes his rape of Liz as an unforgivable sin. Rico's mutterings, as if reminding her of that sin, were not complimentary.
「Aha, ahahaha ......」
With a dry laugh, Rico turned her head to Satoru, making a giggly, rusty sound like a broken doll. Cold sweat mingles. Satoru laughs to himself at Leia's attentiveness and Rico's consideration.
「...... No, that's fine. I'm a devil anyway. I've come to understand that after what happened this time.」
As if to say, "Look at that," Leia gave Rico a blaming look. Rico also said sorry, and although she didn't say it out loud, her mouth was moving that way. Satoru turned his self-mockery into a wry smile.
「No, Rico's point is valid. Don't worry about it. I was a little more lenient than I should have been. I don't want to go through this kind of pain anymore. ...... And I need everyone's cooperation for that, too.」
Satoru has so far thoroughly avoided killing people. Although he is aware that this is naivete, human nature is not something that can be changed so easily. Coming from modern Japan, where moral values are firmly established, to a world where moral values are not so well developed, it is not surprising that he is having trouble adjusting to this world.
However, Satoru was aware that this resulted in Reine's death and his own outburst.
Although Satoru felt anger toward those (Raymond and others) who took Reine hostage, he still did not want to kill them. It was only when he became aware of Reine's death that he thought he would kill them. In fact, if he and Leia had worked together, they would have been able to eliminate the men who were there without inflicting a single wound on Reine and Liz. But of course, if they did, they would not be able to take it easy on them. Surely that it would have been difficult to rescue Reine and Liz without taking their lives. That is why he could not immediately order Leia to do so.
The fact that Satoru, in his naivete of not wanting to kill, tried to somehow grasp a clue through conversation but was unable to do so, and the result was an outburst, he must be self-conscious of this.
Of course, there are many problems that one's own intuitive and direct approach alone can cause. However, Satoru is not alone in this world. He has friends he can trust.
「That's why I'm counting on you all.」
The four of Satoru's magical slaves here ― although technically Solor has not yet signed a magical slave contract ― each nodded in agreement to Satoru's sincere words. Although they may differ in form, they are all friends who respect their Lord, Satoru and have gathered here to support him. There is no one here who would say no to the Lord's request.
「Now, let's see. Now that my Lord has regained his strength, we must consider our future plans.」
Once again, Leia raised her voice.
Although somewhat confused, the timing was right for the party to have to think about the future. At times like this, it is Leia's role to take charge of the situation.
「There was no Yarth, my master, in this region. So, should we go to Nevis, the spiritual peak in the center of the continent, to meet Feather Dragon and ask him directly about Yarth whereabouts, or should we go to the north or south? According to the elven Elder's divination, he was said to be in the southeast.」
Satoru interjected as if to cover Leia's statement.
「Before that, I have two things I want to do.」
「Two?」
「I said before that I wanted to devote one day to each of you. Minerva is going to have a lot of sex a day.」
「Yaay! .......But are you sure you're okay?」
Minerva nodded with pleasure for a moment, but her expression quickly changed to one of concern for Satoru. Until recently, Satoru had been unconscious and bedridden for three days. Even Minerva, who was not familiar with human common sense, could understand how unusual that was. But Satoru gently smiled at Minerva.
「I'm fine. Leia, Rico, and Solor, too. Think about it.」
Leia and Rico looked at each other involuntarily. It was true that he had talked before about wanting to devote one day to each of them. It was a rare situation where Leia was about to raise an objection and Rico interrupted her, but Minerva quickly said that she would have sex with him for a whole day, and these two could not give an immediate answer.
The one who showed the most difficult face with the thinnest expression was Solor.
「I can't even think of what I want. ......」
A plainly confused voice. Her ego is so thin that she has probably never thought about what she wants, even if it is said to be her own desire.
「There is no rush to talk about it. Just give it some thought. If you don't have anything you want, that's can't be helped.」
「I'll give it some thought too, but ......you said 2, right? What's the other one?」
At Rico's question, Satoru changed his mood and opened his mouth gravely.
「I'm going to destroy the Academy of the Wise.」
「!?」
Leia and Rico gasped at the same time. Minerva and Solor looked indifferent; they did not understand the gravity of the situation.
They had been in business with the Academy of the Wise, the highest academic institution in this world, where many excellent sorcerers have gathered. The meaning of Satoru's words is incredibly heavy. Even including Liz, who is definitely out of the lineup, there are only six of them, and to go head-to-head with an opponent that has 8,000 sorcerers in its ranks alone is beyond reckless and reckless. ―― normally.
However, it is a different story when it is Satoru, who is out of this world's common sense and orders of magnitude, who says so.
「Those damn men who did Reine-san, they are definitely related to the Academy of the Wise.」
Satoru's assertion was so forceful that neither Rico nor Leia could dispute it.
「I just remembered something. The guy who was the leader, he was wearing the same ring as Sheryl. In other words, he is definitely connected to Sheryl. I don't want to forgive them for ignoring my warnings and going so far as to kill people.」
Whether it was Leia or Rico, they don't remember much about the men who would have been vaporized at that time. And even more so, they had no memory of the ornaments. But Satoru assures them. There is no doubt about it.
Leia closed her eyes and took a long breath.
There is a strong possibility that the other party will not be limited to the Academy of the Wise. The Academy of the Wise is the headquarters of all the Magic Guilds in the world. If they were to have an all-out confrontation, and Satoru's and the others' personalities were to be spread throughout the world, there is no doubt that it would be a troublesome situation.
But, although I have my own ideas if that is what my Lord has decided, who am I to deny it?
Satoru has shown signs of gradually becoming addicted to power, but he has repeatedly restrained himself each time. Leia also knew that it was not a good idea to let him restrain himself too much because there was always the danger of an outburst.
He inevitably becomes arrogant as a result of being fully aware of his power. Leia had warned herself that it was her duty to monitor and guide him gently so that he would not drown too much.
However, it is not impossible to say that the incident with Reine was the result of Satoru's arrogance.
Satoru must have been greatly shaken.
In conclusion, he concluded that he was going to make an example of the Academy of the Wise, which had clearly gone out of its way to eliminate him, in order to do what he believed to be right―Leia guesses this and looks at Satoru sharply.
「......If that is the way my Lord wants it, then I will follow. So, what do we do? Or do we kill all the sorcerers belonging to the Academy of the Wise and destroy Ares so that there will be no repercussions?」
Rico turned her head to look at Leia, who was so disturbed by her comment. Leia's expression was also serious. Satoru, Leia, and Solor are three people of different dimensional levels. Even the Academy of the Wise would not be able to stop them with the power of these three serious people. Killing them all is not impossible.
But Satoru shook his head.
「That's not my principle. I'm going to smash that Chalk Tower to smithereens, like a symbol. Then, if possible, I will make the head of the academy take responsibility so that he will not be able to touch me.」
How naive―Leia almost replied, shaking her head from side to side.
Leia herself thinks it would be better to destroy most of the Academy of the Wise and get rid of half of the sorcerers, rather than just the Chalk Tower. That's something to think about later. If Satoru does that, there will be no more people who will try to attack Satoru, no matter how much they want to.
「Is Leia dissatisfied?」
「Just a little. But as I said before, if my Lord has decided so, I have nothing special to say.」
With a small chuckle at the fact that he could see through her expression, Leia nodded strongly to Satoru. Satoru then turned his attention to the rest of the group.
Rico, Minerva, and Solor ― his magical slaves, realizing that he was serious, nodded to each of them.
Finally, Satoru's counterattack begins.
