Minwoo opened his eyes.
It was a familiar place.
The circular room where succubi were taught etiquette in the past. The big bed was still the same, and before we knew it, Minwoo was lying on it.
I don’t remember returning to the Demon King’s Castle, so what happened?
“Are you awake?”
A familiar, deep voice came to my ears. When I turned my head, I saw Jerome still dressed like a butler, bowing his head to Minwoo.
“Is it Jerome… And…”
Jerome wasn’t the only one in the room. On the side where Minwoo’s feet were facing, under the bed, there were seven women sitting on the floor in a row and kneeling in a respectful posture. Sure enough, they were succubus sisters.
“Hmm… Is this really just my dream?”
“Yes.”
Did you say it was a lucid dream? I had felt this for some reason since I woke up, but Minwoo only asked to confirm.
“So, what’s going on?”
“Didn’t I tell you once before? If Minwoo has time, I will send the children to say hello. Coincidentally, Minwoo called me, so I got to meet him in my dream.”
“Ah… I see.”
As Minwoo guessed, it was possible for the dream demons to contact each other from outside without being hindered by the barrier as long as there was a medium. Here, mediation refers to male contractors who have provided affection to succubi, or incubuses who directly dominate them, like Min-woo.
However, even though it was contact, physical interference was impossible at all, and it could only be seen in a dream.
Jerome continued.
“I have a few things to tell you besides the facts, but let me say hello first.”
“Hmm.”
As Minwoo nodded, Jerome lightly winked at Lili, the eldest of the seven succubus sisters. Then Lili lowered her gaze and slightly bowed to Minwoo.
“I send greetings to Minwoo, the new owner of our seven sisters.”
Riri got down on her knees and bowed so deeply that her forehead almost touched the floor. The same was true for the other six sisters.
The sight of seven succubi sitting in a row, taking a posture of complete submission, was truly spectacular. When we first met, the light-hearted attitude of chatting and ignoring Minwoo was nowhere to be seen.
“Um… Well, okay.”
Minwoo scratched his head with an awkward expression as he showed courtesy in such an extremely polite manner. Still, was his etiquette training effective? In fact, Minwoo was far from the qualities or dignity of his superior, but at this moment, he seemed to feel proud for some reason.
Lili then briefly introduced the succubus sisters. Their names, in order from first to last, were Lili, Nana, Momo, Lala, Vivi, Shasha, and Lulu. It’s not a long name, but it’s hard to remember them all, so let’s always call them Set, Minwoo thought.
Jerome, who was watching from the side, said.
“Minwoo. “May I dare to give you some advice?”
“Advice? Well, if there’s anything I need to know, tell me.”
“Yes.”
Jerome’s explanation continued.
“It is certainly an amazing feat to have seven succubi obey with Minwoo’s excellent qualities, but in fact, this is a double-edged sword. It also increases the burden of magical energy that must be provided to them.”
“I’m sure… I guess so.”
If magic power was needed, he could absorb it with a light stick, so he wasn’t really worried at all, but Minwoo agreed with Jerome’s words.
“Besides… I’m sorry to say this, but Minwoo’s etiquette training was a bit harsh, so the girls had a bit of a problem.”
“Problem?”
When Minwoo looked at the succubi while asking that question, he could see them all flinching and shrugging their shoulders.
“..?”
What is it?
Jerome continued.
“Actually… It may sound a bit absurd, but they were so shocked by the ‘ritual’ they had with Min-woo that they went through… It seems like they had some trouble doing their jobs.”〈 Br〉
“Is it… A hindrance to my livelihood? I don’t quite understand what you mean…”
When it comes to succubi’s livelihood, does it mean taking men’s affections? But there is a problem with that?
Minwoo made an absurd expression at Jerome’s next words.
“To put it simply… I guess you could say I developed a phobia about sex?”
“..Haa?”
Minwoo made a dumbfounded noise at the unexpected words.
“No, no… Wait… Does that make sense?”
That succubus? Is the succubus sex-phobic?
The virgin succubus was funny, but this was even more outrageous.
This is more absurd than saying that Pikachu pays the electricity bill and Squirtle pays the water bill.
“It may sound funny… But it’s true.”
“…”
Minwoo looked at the succubus sisters again. When I looked closely at the women, who were still in a deep bowing position, I saw that their whole bodies were shaking slightly.
“Hey, you guys.”
“..!”
Flinch!
The succubi’s tremors became more severe.
When Minwoo got off the bed and stood in front of them, the succubuses pounded his forehead, which was already almost touching the floor, so deep that it made a sound.
“Huh…”
Minwoo quietly walked back and forth in front of the succubi and then stood in front of Sasha, the sixth of her sisters who had been teased for being still a virgin. Of course, she was no longer a virgin because Minwoo had taken care of it herself.
Minwoo said something half-jokingly.
“Hey, there’s dust in your hair.”
“..!”
The moment Minwoo touched Sasha’s body while saying that,
Shhh…
A yellow puddle began to form under Sasha’s buttocks with a sound like the wind was being knocked out. He was in continent.
“Hey, hey…”
Minwoo was taken aback by the reaction and was about to say something when Lili, the eldest child, suddenly shouted in a loud voice.
“S-sorry..! Minwoo! My younger brothers still haven’t been taught proper etiquette, so they committed rudeness..! Please have mercy on me… Ugh..! If you’re going to punish me, then I’ll do it instead of my younger brothers. Please punish..!”
“Black…”
“Hey…”
The succubus sisters begin to sob little by little at Lily’s words her her her. Still, he couldn’t cry openly, perhaps because he was still afraid of Minwoo, and it was truly pitiful to see him trying to suppress his tears of her somehow.
He said one thing as if Minwoo was dumbfounded.
“Did I teach etiquette too harshly…”
In the end, Minwoo was unable to rest properly even in his dreams because he was trying to appeal to the succubi about his her generosity her her (?) Her her.
…
‘It’s okay! It’s outside!’
Pyrrhia felt like she was about to cry as she saw the light coming through the entrance to her cave. But she couldn’t let go of her heart until the end.
Pyrrhia maintained her invisibility and noise magic and carefully looked near her entrance. There are two orcs guarding the entrance. But she didn’t seem to notice her presence.
Pyrrhia believed in her own magic and boldly moved forward.
The orcs did not recognize Pyria.
‘Good..!’
Pyria calmed down her rising emotions and continued to move forward.
‘This place…’
The cave she was trapped in was a crevice in the sheer rock wall.
Outside, there was a wide expanse of land made up of cracked stone floors and numerous pebbles, where desertification was in full swing.
And on top of that clearing, there were so many orcs that it was impossible to see them all at a glance.
‘Ugh… ‘
Pyrrhia seemed astonished by the number of orcs. But the moment her mental power was lost, she knew that everything was over, so she somehow pulled herself together.
The orcs didn’t make much of a fuss considering their number. If there was this much noise in this number, it could almost be said to be quiet.
‘What..? Something… Feels strange…’
After some time, Pyrrhia got used to her atmosphere, but apart from that, she felt a strange atmosphere for some reason. At first glance, she was a group of orcs who appeared to be resting in disorder, but they had one thing in common.
‘Everyone… Are you looking at the center of the vacant lot..?’
Is there something there?
Although Pyrrhia was in a desperate position to escape this place immediately, she was eventually unable to overcome her curiosity and was drawn to the center.
There were two women and an orc.
In the case of orcs, they were recognizable at a glance. It was Nerca, an orc once enslaved by Pyria.
As for the women… It was their first time seeing them both.
At first, he thought they were women who had been captured like him, but it didn’t look like that. It could be said that she was a captured woman, because even at a glance, she gave off an unusual atmosphere.
The woman on one side was a young girl with blond hair, probably in her mid-teens. However, the energy radiating from her body was not that of a child. In fact, she did not look at all discouraged by the numerous orcs around her, and instead, she was talking to Nerka with a force that overwhelmed him.
The other woman was standing behind her girl with her arms crossed as she quietly watched the conversation between the girl and Nerka. She was tall and had purple skin, so it was obvious at a glance that she was not human. Although Pyrrhia had no experience seeing demons in person, she thought that if there were actually demons, she would look like that.
In Pyria’s ears, their conversation could be vaguely heard.
“Can this… Be interpreted as a hostile act against us? Orc Lord, Nerka.”
“No, that’s not true. We are not against you.”
“Then leave this place right now. I will not claim ownership of this entire desolate land, but if you want to covet the riches of the labyrinth like those wicked humans…”
Nerka shook her head at Siora’s words her her her her.
“We apologize for stepping in without permission. But don’t misunderstand. We came here to enter your military gates.”
Nerka said, looking at the purple-skinned woman standing behind the girl.
“Demon King.”
‘..!’
Pyrrhia, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation, swallowed the air.
