Chapter 496 – Butler and Partner

#

I woke up to a noise next to me. When I turned on the UI, it was already time to eat breakfast.

To be honest, it’s a bit late for breakfast, but so much happened yesterday and after a crazy night, it’s okay to take this into account.

“…”

I heard a subtle yet cute sound of snoring from next to me, and when I said something, I saw Nini L snoring softly.

I don’t think he’s ever been like this before, but he must have been quite tired, snoring like this.

Well, yesterday was an incredible night worthy of a truly incredible day.

Niniel woke up and fainted several times, and I was so excited that I poured myself out, so if it ended with a little snoring like this, I would be more than happy to be thankful that my body survived.

If there had been no sex recovery, Nini El would have been bedridden for a few days due to her muscle pain.

“Ugh… Ujini… Don’t you…”

Niniel furrowed his eyebrows and spoke softly in his sleep.

Okay, I need to stop? I took it a bit too far. Such a pretty face is full of tear stains and spit stains.

Even though my face is so ruined, is it because of my bean pods or my sexual desire that I still look pretty? It’s unknown.

Anyway, thanks to Niniel being broken like this, we were able to figure out the cause of the succubus problem to some extent.

“Ugh… Ujini… Don’t touch me…”

Yes, no.

You shouldn’t think about sex.

Oh my god, if you think about sex, or more precisely, about penetration, you turn into a succubus.

How on earth do I solve this?

Yesterday, we managed to move on to improvisation, but it is not a solution to the fundamental problem.

If you tell yourself not to think about sex, there’s a chance you’ll end up thinking about sex all day. No, it will definitely happen like that.

Then this mansion is truly a mess.

It’s not like there aren’t ways to stop thinking about sex. It’s in my skill window right now.

[Skill: Sage Time]

[Type: Active]

[Effect: The target becomes mentally and physically exhausted. On the contrary, you will be able to think a little calmer.

It was said that he was falling into exhaustion, but this is a somewhat refined expression.

I know this because I’ve been hit, but losing strength doesn’t mean that your physical strength decreases, but rather, it means that you lose strength in your lower body.

It is said that even if used on a patient like Niniel, it does not cause physical problems.

And mental exhaustion…

I was so excited to have sex, but suddenly it felt like I was hit with cold water. There is just an unpleasant feeling of being forced to lose sexual desire.

Anyway, sage time only makes you feel bad, but it doesn’t have any particularly bad effects on your body. In a way, it can be said to be a skill for times like these.

The problem is that I have to stay at the mansion to write this.

No, if I stay in the mansion in the first place, there is no need to use Sage Time.

The simplest and most standard way is to keep having sex with Niniel until the curse is lifted.

But that wasn’t possible.

It’s not because of the goddess’ quest or something to do outside. That kind of thing actually takes a lower priority in my mind.

What’s more important is that if you only focus on Niniel, you’ll end up neglecting other kids.

It’s not that I don’t have a desire to hug a lot of women, but more than that, I don’t want to make them feel upset.

So how do we stop this?

The answer came quickly. Sharing the new skills and skills I received from the goddess yesterday.

[Skill: Partner Declaration]

[Effect: Declares the target as a partner. Consent from the subject is required for use. Partners can share and use some of the caster’s skills. The skill’s stats only apply below a certain level.]

[Click for details]

Skill sharing has already come with a description attached to a plausible skill name.

What kind of resources does that goddess have, and how can she die trying to stop foreign invaders from attacking her? While she does this, she always puts her own tastes into these little details. Actually, isn’t she quite relaxed?

[The partner mark is engraved in a random location.

[The mark can be removed or changed later.

This is true even if you just look at the detailed skill description. I have never asked for something this grand, but the goddess took care of it.

Anyway, it’s a random location. Can’t I control it?

“Ugh…”

Niniel is talking in his sleep again.

I tried declaring a partner with Niniel as a test, but it had no effect.

To begin with, the skill text is gray. It means that there is no response even if you press it.

Since the consent of the parties involved is required, is that necessary for previewing as well? I heard the goddess is quite strict in this regard.

And the method of obtaining consent was also quite difficult.

“Uhm…”

A moan escapes me without even realizing it.

The explanation on how to obtain the consent of the person mentioned in the skill is…

It’s very shameful, embarrassing, and inhumane.

Really?

Do you really need to say something like this?

“…”

Let’s think about this later. There might be a way around it. Change a few words…

Anyway, there was only one person who could share the Sage Time for Niniel.

Rebecca.

Because he has the ability to take care of Niniel while staying in the mansion and act alone if necessary.

Rebecca would probably agree. She has no reason to refuse.

Well, it’s a bit of a pity for Niniel, who is going to be a wise man, but it can’t be helped.

No, but.

Honestly, this elf needs some wise man time. Maybe she’s the best bitch in this mansion.

Well, I thought it was complicated, thinking that the succubus was a curse defense system and all, but wasn’t that actually just Niniel’s personality?

“Ugh, Yu, Yujin…”

Niniel opened his sleepy eyes and looked at me with a bright smile.

“Miss Niniel. How are you feeling?”

“Ugh, I think it’s okay… Thanks to Eugene…”

“That’s a good thing. Ms. Niniel, how much do you remember about yesterday?”

Niniel rolls his eyes upward as if reliving his memory for a moment and his face blushes.

I could understand up to that point, but Niniel suddenly looked disappointed.

A sad face with eyebrows and ear tips lowered at the same time.

“…”

Niniel just glances at me without answering and licks his lips.

Something you want to say but can’t say with your own mouth. A sad face that is beyond regret.

Ah.

I soon realized my mistake.

“Not Ms. Niniel…, Niniel.”

“…”

Niniel’s smile appears again.

“Yujin.”

“Niniel.”

“Hehe.”

Niniel came into my arms… As he was about to be hugged, he stopped and threw his pillow over his head, as if he was startled.

“Niniel hey… Niniel. Is there any problem?”

“Oh, no, over there…”

Niniel answered in a mumbling voice while pressing his face against the pillow.

“My face must be a mess right now… I haven’t even washed it yet…”

I just laughed.

“It’s okay. Niniel. I don’t care.”

“Well, I’m still embarrassed…”

“I think Niniel’s face is cute too.”

“Well, I’m still embarrassed…”

Niniel kept repeating the same thing and did not put down the pillow he was covering.

“It will only take a moment, so please show me your face. It will only take a moment, so just wait.”

At my words, Niniel lowers his pillow and sticks out his eyes. I took out a wet tissue from my inventory and wiped Niniel’s exposed face.

After putting his hand between the pillows and wiping his face, Niniel lowered the pillow.

“This is enough, right?”

“Ah… Thank you… I’ll do it for you too…”

Niniel looked around and turned his body towards the drawer next to the bed. In the meantime, he seems to be pulling the blanket over himself, wanting to cover himself.

“Eujin…?”

“I’m sorry. “I’m a bit cold.”

I blurted out nonsensical words and grabbed the blanket and didn’t let go. Even in my opinion, it’s a childish and mischievous joke.

Still, I can never let you go.

Nini El must have read the stubbornness in my laughter, and turned to face the drawer with a bright red face.

Rummaging around.

He takes out a handkerchief from somewhere in a drawer and wipes my face in the same way.

In the meantime, I cover my breasts with one arm and close my thighs with my legs to cover my precious parts.

This is a big deal. It’s so cute. I wanted to do it one more time.

“…”

But I’ll have to endure it this time. Because it’s too late.

“Great. “Now I need to talk about something serious.”

“Oh, yes. Yes!”

“I’m talking about last night. How much do you remember?”

“… Ah, that is…”

-Tiring!

[“Crusader’s Performance (SS)” Is activated.

[Status Abnormality: “Hard” Has been lifted.

“Niniel. “Concentrate.”

“Hot! “I’m sorry!”

Niniel closed his eyes tightly and his face hardened. It seemed like he was really trying to concentrate, as he was even pinching his thigh.

Niniel, whose face was slightly red, soon opened his eyes.

“Well, I think I almost remember…”

“Great. “Then is it possible to avoid becoming a succubus?”

Niniel’s face blushed again.

“So, honestly…”

“Honestly?”

“I will try, but I think it will be a bit difficult. Even now…”

-Tiring!

“I’m sorry…”

“Hmm. It’s okay. There is no need to be sorry. “I would have been in the same position as Niniel.”

Niniel looked at me with a downcast face.

“Well, then what should I do?”

“I think it will work out somehow. “I have something in mind.”

I told Niniel roughly what I would do next.

# # #

Time for breakfast.

Ariel and Rebecca looked a little tired, and Rebecca in particular was stiffer than usual. Anyone who sees it might think it’s a robot.

For some reason, the makeup seems thicker than usual. I can’t see because my face is covered. Did you have that kind of taste?

Come to think of it, Rebecca wasn’t in the next room when I woke up in the morning.
When did she get away?

Leni’s face was lost in thought, and Yuri was almost glancing at me with her narrow eyes.

It’s a face that seems to tell you to confess your sins.

What did I do wrong?

What does that expression mean…

“I guess we should talk about yesterday.”

“Oh, yes.”

Ariel took her lead. Yes, no matter what Yuri says, this one comes first.

Ariel started explaining first.

“Something was caught by the detection equipment. Now, based on that, I plan to create a force field to nullify it. However, since it is a type I have never seen before, it will take some time to interpret.”

“How long will it take?”

“It’s hard to say for sure yet. “It’s not something that can be done in a day or two.”

Just as Niniel’s face was about to darken, Ariel added.

“It’ll be okay. If you can’t invalidate it, there’s a way to overwrite it.”

“Overwrite?”

“Okay. Isn’t it the effect of arousing sexual desire that is problematic? In that case, you can always activate the magic that removes sexual desire.”

Somehow, it seems like everything people think about is there. Maybe this could be more effective than skill sharing.

I asked Ariel.

“How long do you think that will take?”

“… It’s hard to answer that too. I’ve never learned any magic to remove sexual desire, so I’ll probably have to seek help from the Magic Tower. “I wonder if such a thing even exists in the first place… But even if that were the case, just make it.”

Ariel said something for a while after that, but most of it was technical, so I couldn’t understand it.

“I also have a method.”

After Ariel’s boring story, I told her the plan I had in mind.

He said that he could use skill sharing to pass on the Sage Time and use it when needed in the mansion.

Yuri said after hearing my story.

“Hehe… I guess I’ll end up doing the same thing.”

“Unlike the method Ariel mentioned, this one can be used right now. And we’re not about to slack off like that.”

I would like to take my time, but it was clear that the inspector, the guild, and the goddess would not leave me like that.

“So, who is receiving the skill sharing?”

I paused for a moment at Lennie’s words.

How can I convey this without misunderstanding?

“… Rebecca is the most reasonable.”

“Do you mean…?”

“Okay.”

I spoke, trying to keep my expression as low as possible and not show any emotions.

When you think rationally, Rebecca is the most reasonable. She will always be in the mansion, will respond most sensitively to Niniel, and can move alone if necessary.

Various other advantages.

Surprisingly, the kids didn’t complain about what I said. Instead, they just look at me with a look of disgust or shock.

Rebecca lowered her head at my words.

Her head is down and her makeup is so thick, you can’t even guess what she’s thinking.

Is there something I don’t like?

“Rebecca?”

“… Good.”

Rebecca raised her head. There was no expression on her face.

“As you said, it would be most reasonable for me to share my skills. “Does sharing that skill take a long time?”

“No, that won’t happen.”

“Then let’s do it now. “I have a lot of work to do, too.”

“Uh, well.”

I hesitated. I couldn’t help but hesitate. When I think about what I’m going to say from now on, my mouth doesn’t fall off easily.

“Then before that, can we just be alone for a moment?”

“Why?”

Yuri immediately intervened.

“Why? Is that also a skill with strange conditions? “You said you have to does it while having sex?”

“No, that’s not it…”

“Then why don’t we do it here?”

“…”

I can feel the pressure in everyone’s eyes. In fact, Rebecca is just looking into the distance as if it doesn’t matter.

Shit. In an atmosphere like this, there’s no way to back down. I have no choice but to throw it away.

“… Good. Rebecca Don’t misunderstand and listen. Because this is just a skill.”

“All right. It’s just a skill, but you’re talking so grandiosely. Let’s do it quickly.”

“Good. The other party’s consent is required to use skill sharing. When I ask you for permission, you must also verbally express your consent to me.”

“That doesn’t seem that difficult.”

‘Is it so difficult that you’re taking so much time?’

Rebecca was cursing me with her eyes.

Shit. Okay, give it a listen and let’s see what happens.

I said with a trembling voice.

“Rebecca.”

“Yes.”

“Rebecca. From this moment on, the connection between each other’s souls will continue. “Will you please become my spirit and soul partner?”

“…!!!!!!!”

“!!!!!”

“!!!!!!!!!!”
