Chapter 7: 2.1

I went to a clothing store with Aine. I did tell Aine that she could pick any of them, but what she chose was a simple shirt and skirt without any particularly conspicuous design. And we also bought some underwear as well, but Aine looked somewhat restless.

“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me—”

“Y-you’re wrong. I’m just, kinda not used to the skirt.”

“Oh really, I thought you’re pretty used to something like that, you know.”

“…It’s easier to move in trousers, or rather pants style.”

“Then you really should’ve just gone with that.”

“…Because there’s ‘that’,” Aine said in a murmur.

It still hadn’t come now, but the ‘heat’ would eventually become a concern, apparently.

In short, it would probably mean that it could get wet if it was in close contact with the skin.

What a very troubling problem… Without getting deep into the matter, Aine and I headed straight for the adventurer’s guild.

On our way there, Aine showed the gesture of minding the eyes from the surroundings.

“As expected, maybe we really should just hide the collar?”

“…If we hide it, it might get you greatly misunderstood when exposed, won’t it? Walking around with a slave but hiding the fact they’re a slave is gonna make you only look guilty about it.”

“Not that I care, though.”

“Go care about it! I will… get used to it after a bit, so it’s fine.”

Aine continued to walk while trying to hide behind me.

The old her was the type who would take the initiative to walk in front, but… I supposed it couldn’t be helped given the current situation.

I also didn’t have someone I was close with either; only to the extent where I would just return a greeting if someone lightly greeted me while I was walking downtown. …Sometimes there would be people who would try to talk to me in a friendly way, and other times they would also come aggressively at me for some reason.

Fortunately, we made it to the adventurer’s guild without running into any of those people.

It was a three-story building, and in terms of size alone, it could accommodate quite the number of people.

They were running a tavern inside, in which people could recruit others for their party. I basically worked alone, so I hadn’t made use of it much, though.

As soon as I entered the guild, I made my way towards the receptionist lady.

Apparently noticing me, the lady smiled and bowed her head.

“We have been expecting you.”

“Yeah, sorry about yesterday.”

“No problem, you said it was urgent after all. About the job request, I was told that the guild leader would explain it personally… but I believe he will be back in a short while, however.”

“Personally, eh. Is it that big of a deal?”

“Well, it’s enough to send the request to you after all—and so, who that might be?” The receptionist lady glanced at Aine who was behind me.

Though hesitantly, Aine walked to the front of the lady.

As expected, her gaze fell on the collar.

“You know, about yesterday’s money, I had to withdraw it to buy this girl.”

“Oh, I see. By bringing her here, does that mean she is also fighting?”

“Well, pretty much,” I answered in a slightly evasive manner.

If I were to be open, Aine would only look like a slave that I had bought to help me with my job. Aine as well, she seemed to intend to try to get people to perceive her in this direction.

With a smile, “I never thought that Lunois-san would buy a slave, but you sure are really cute,” the receptionist lady said to Aine.

“Th-thank you, very much.” Aine looked down in embarrassment at the compliment, perhaps not used to being told so.

With a giggle, the receptionist lady smiled at Aine.

“I do believe it’s a very good fortune to be bought by Lunois-san, you know? After all, he is an S-rank adventurer at such a young age!”

“Nothing will come out of your praise, you know.”

“—Yeah, I guess so. A guy like you became an S-rank surprised me, you know that?” Suddenly such a voice could be heard from behind.

When I turned around, there was a giant, muscular man—an ‘A-rank’ adventurer, Dill Soltiness. One of those adventurers who would get tangled up with me in any way.

“Do you need something?”

“Nothing, really. It’s just, a guy like you becoming S-rank ahead of me; even now it’s still just unbelievable.”

“Dill-san, fighting inside the guild is—”

“We’re just chatting a bit here. Just shut up.” He glared at the receptionist lady, making her silent. …There were guys like this occasionally.

About when I just started as an adventurer, he was a B-rank adventurer. He certainly had the ability, but his personality was a problem—he ended up becoming an A-rank adventurer in the end, but that had originally been hindering him.

“And so, now that you’re an S-rank, you can afford to buy a female slave? Oh I’m so jealous.”

“Not quite like that, though.”

“…”

I glanced at Aine and saw that she had a blatantly displeased expression on her face. She was also not good with this kind of guy—actually, she probably hated them. If it was the old her, she would’ve lashed out upon realizing that someone was trying to pick a fight, but she was averting her gaze and enduring it. …I guess it’s better to get out of here quickly.

Before we could though, Dill was looking down at Aine and, “What, you’ve got things to say? You’re just a slave, the hell are you glaring at me for…?”

“Nothing, not really.”

“I’m saying the hell is that attitude. Since the master’s a guy like that, the slave got the nerve to get all cocky.”

“…! Lunois has nothing to do with this!”

“Aine, don’t mind it.”

“But…!”

“Hah! ‘Lunois,’ eh. If you let your slave talk to you like that, then no wonder the slave got all cocky, huh. Oh right… Let me train her for you. She got a cute face on a second loo—”

“Don’t touch her.”

Dill suddenly stretched out his hand towards Aine. I grabbed his arm, stopping him.

I ended up grabbing it so hard that the sound of bones creaking could be heard. …I didn’t care about anything said to me, but I would not tolerate anyone who tried to do anything to Aine.

“…Tsk, you’re a guy who can’t even take jokes.”

Dill shook off my hand and walked away from there. His comrades were also observing the situation from the surrounding at a distance.

Once Dill’s figure was out of sight, Aine sank down on the spot as if she had lost strength.

“Aine!!”

“A-are you all right!?”

“I-I’m okay… but, umm, Lunois.” Aine glanced at me, signaling me with her eyes.

She tried not to let it get discovered by the receptionist lady, who was looking at her worryingly close by—her ‘heat’ started at this moment. Were it to be a bit earlier, it might have happened at the worst timing, but right now the timing was rather just right.

“I’m sorry, but can we borrow a small room? I want to let her rest.”

“O-okay. It’s this way!”

Led by the receptionist lady, I moved Aine by carrying her in my arms. To calm Aine down, who was having rough heavy breathing, the ‘act’ would have to be done.

I decided to borrow one of the guild’s reception rooms to let Aine’s body rest. Of course, ‘letting her rest’ was only the front, and it was necessary to calm her ‘heat,’ though.

After requesting that no one should come into the room for a while, I put Aine down on the sofa.

Already breathing roughly and with a pained expression on her face, she still grasped the hem of my clothes with her weak hand and, “why, didn’t you… talk back, and just let the guy earlier, say whatever.”

“About Dill, huh. It’s not like there’s a need to talk back, right?”

“Y-you’re, being made fun of, like that… nn.”

“Aine, no need to talk about that now. I’m gonna calm you down first.” As I gave my confirmation, I put my hands on Aine’s underwear. Her love juices were already flowing from her secret part to the point that it was pulling threads.

With an angry yet embarrassed expression, “I don’t like it… if you’re, made fun of,” Aine said to me.

“I mean, in the past you used to make fun of me a lot, you know?”

“Th-that was, differe… nnahh.”

“Yeah, I know. I’ll get angry if there’s something to be angry about.”

“…Like, earlier?”

Like earlier—I nodded to her words.

When Dill tried to touch Aine, I grabbed his arm in earnest and stopped him from doing so.

“I don’t care about anything anyone says to me, but if anyone tries to lay their hands on you, I’m not gonna forgive them. That much is how I feel.”

“…!”

Hearing my words, Aine averted her gaze with a complicated expression on her face.

Seeing that she didn’t say anything more, she might not have been convinced with it—but I supposed the conversation was over for now.

Gently, I touched Aine’s vagina. First, I touched it in a stroking manner, and Aine’s body maade a small jolt.

“Nn, yahh.”

“…I guess your voice may be a bit too loud.”

“E-even if, you say that, nnahh!”

I knew that Aine was desperately trying to suppress her voice; because I could feel the strength she put into her body even as she was teary eyed.

And then all of her efforts, would be reduced to nothing with just a gentle touch from me.

Even before I put my fingers in, I could see her vaginal opening overflowing with love juices.

I would like to put as little burden on Aine as possible, but I just didn’t have the skills. It would be nice if I could do something about it with my swordsmanship, though.

I pulled out a handkerchief from my pocket, and placed it on Aine’s mouth.

“Here, you can bite this; I want you to bear with it for a bit.”

“Nn, nngh.”

Following my words, Aine bit hard on the handkerchief.

She then folded her arms, taking a posture just for the sake of enduring the stimulation.

Once I confirmed that, slowly, I inserted my fingers into Aine’s vagina.

The already wet vagina of hers was slippery and slick. Aine’s body was making small trembles from the stimulation of my fingers entering her little by little.

When I gently stroked the inside of her vagina, Aine’s voice reached my ears even though she was suppressing it.

“Nnh, fuuhh, nnnnhh! Nnghh!”

The voice wasn’t loud enough to reach the outside yet somehow.

While taking in and out my middle and index finger, I continued to make the stimulation as gentle as possible.

However, I had no idea whether this was the correct choice—I didn’t want to increase the stimulation so as not to hurt Aine, but even just keeping the stimulation gentle might be a burden for her.

This was still only the second time I was doing this… I was also seeing things out as I went.

When trying to make Aine feel good, I knew that her voice would get louder. I also knew that I got to make her cum, but her voice was getting louder and louder as I tried to do so, even though she was biting on a handkerchief.

“Fuhh, fuhh… nnn, ahh, fuhh, uwh…”

…It would likely be too cruel to tell her not to make a sound now.

I wouldn’t really mind if people saw me doing something like this. However, she surely wouldn’t want to be seen in her current state. There would be no way she would want to be seen being forced into heat by the power of the collar.

As I was observing Aine and stroking her secret place for a while, the sensation of being sucked in eventually became stronger. The inside of her vagina tightened up; also apparent to me that Aine was gradually making her way to cum.

But, just at that moment, Aine grasped my hand with her feeble strength. She also let go the handkerchief she was biting on and, “wai, waihh a bit, I need, a break, I caaan’t…!”

“Aine, just a bit more.”

“Nn, w-weak, stimulation is, unbearable…!” Aine complained when she was almost there.

I’d thought of being as gentle as possible, but it seemed to have become an extra burden on her. With shaking hands, she managed to reach out to her secret place to protect it. …But, stopping now for a break wouldn’t relieve Aine. She would just continue to be in heat.

“—Sorry, Aine.”

“…Wh-what are, ahh!”

I grabbed both of Aine’s wrists and forcefully held them up by the top of her head.

Even with only one arm, it wasn’t hard to pin down the current her. It now looked like I was forcing Aine to do things she didn’t want to, but I’d just think about relieving her for now.

“Hah, nooo…. It’s, my limit!”

“It’s just a bit more.”

“Nn, hiahh, naaaahhh!!”

While restraining Aine’s hands, I quickened the movement of my fingers inside her vagina. I also occasionally reached my finger to Aine’s clitoris and touched it so that she could cum sooner.

The sight of Aine looking at me with a pained expression gave a sense of guilty pleasure.

It’s for her—telling myself so, I was forcefully doing something I’d hate to do.

Unable to suppress the loudness of her voice, Aine panted in a shaky voice.

“No, aahh, Lunois, pl-pleaeeease…!! Stop, alreadyyy..!”

“Aine, just bear with me a bit longer.”

“I caaan’t!! I can’t anymooore!!”

Aine was not liking it like a child throwing a tantrum, perhaps as a result of trying to suppress her voice—at this rate, her voice would end up being heard outside.

Once more, I apologized to Aine in my mind—and gently lapped my lips over hers.

For a moment, Aine must not have been able to understand what had just happened; she opened her eyes wide and showed a surprised expression.

As my lips overlapped with hers so as not to let her voice escape, I sped up the movement of my fingers fingering the inside of her vagina. When our tongues became entwined, Aine’s body finally began to tremble greatly.

“Nn, mmh, nnnh, cum, mming!!”

Her hips were floating and then lost strength. I slowly pulled away from Aine, who had stopped moving. Saliva stretched from our mouths like a thread; and when I pulled my fingers, her love juice also stretched like a thread.

With moist eyes, “Lu-Lunois, you dummy…” Aine muttered quietly.

“Yeah… sorry,” I just apologized to Aine.

Nonetheless, I successfully managed to calm her heat down—I have a feeling I probably won’t ever get used to this.

After calming down Aine’s ‘heat,’ I simply waited for the time to pass. Also without a word, Aine sat down on the sofa and was staring out the window.

Although inevitable, I forcefully snatched a kiss from her… That was, probably not something that would ever be forgiven.

…But first, let’s wait for her to calm down, I thought. Though, suddenly, “…it’s not like I’m angry, okay,” Aine spoke up. “I mean, it can’t be helped. I mean, I’m also the one getting help. So, I don’t really mind.”

The way she said it was obvious that she was minding it, but doing like this to each other couldn’t be helped either.

If that was what Aine had to say, then I would also respond to her words. “…Yeah, sorry.”

“I already said I don’t mind it.”

“I know.”

I just thought I’d apologize one last time. Aine cast a glance in my direction and, “but, th-that kinda thing, should be more… um, like, the situation is…”

“Situation…?”

“Ah geez, it’s nothing! Anyway, this conversation is over! Thank you, for helping me,” Aine said, trying to get back into form.

I nodded in reply. When I thought that this might happen again tomorrow, as expected, I still would like to resolve the problem with her collar as soon as possible, though.

“…For now, please stay here and rest, Aine. The guild leader also could be back soon. I’m gonna tell them so no one will come inside, okay?”

“Then I will also… ah.”

Aine tried to stand up, but lost her balance. It should take a bit more time for her to get back into form.

I supported her body and slowly sat her down on the sofa.

“You don’t have to force yourself. I’ll be back quickly.”

“…Okay.” Aine nodded her head in understanding.

I left the room leaving her behind.

As I was about to go back to the receptionist, I was called out by a woman before I could.

“Yo, I was a bit surprised you’re accompanied by a girl, you know?”

When I turned to look, there was a black-haired woman with a mature feel to her. Her hair was tied in a braid, and she was wearing a black-rimmed glasses. Although she gave off a docile feel at first glance, her attire was a very revealing one to contradict that.

Runan Kirdl—a former A-rank adventurer currently working as the guild leader of this adventurer’s guild. She was one of the top adventurers in terms of ability, but had to retire at a young age due to injury and was now in her current position.

She was all grinning—likely wanting to tease me about the fact that I had bought a girl slave.

“Guild leader, you called me here but now you’re late?”

“Still as sassy as ever, aren’t you.”

“You’re giving off the feeling that you’re looking down on me so…”

“Oh, you know—wait, it’s not like I’m making light of you, alright. I just thought even you will buy a slave, huh; something like that.”

I supposed Runan was saying that out of pure doubt. I’d had a lot of chances to talk to her so I knew. Being a guild leader, I believed that she was someone trustworthy, setting aside her personality.

“…Well, I just thought I could have some help for my job.”

“Ooh. Well, you bought a slave and… I’m not gonna tell you what to do ‘cause of it. I was just kind of touched that you’re also interested in girls.”

“I think saying it like that is misleading, though…”

“Hahaha, that might be right. Now, don’t just stand and talk. Let’s continue this in my room.”

In reply to Runan’s words, I followed after her.

The guild leader’s room was located at the back of the building’s third floor.

I entered the room and was greeted by an abundance of weapons, giving off the resemblance of some training ground as always.

Once Runan and I were seated facing each other, she quickly laid out papers on the table; all containing information about nothing but monsters and the like.

“Go ahead, take whatever you want. If you like, you can even take all of them!”

“All of them? Are you trying to get me to die from overwork?”

“Ahaha, as long as it’s nothing urgent, you can take your time doing it. They’re pretty much requests from the country after all.”

Many of the requests that Runan brought to me were requests coming directly from the Kingdom. They were also supposed to be maintaining a military force, the so-called ‘Knight Order,’ but still… they would send requests for things impossible to resolve or things they couldn’t handle to the adventurer’s guild.

“With this many jobs, it’s making the country’s future worrying, isn’t it?”

“It’s always good to know that we have jobs. On the flip side, I suppose that means there are few capable people. Well, there are few decent people even at S-rank, so it helps when there are relatively decent guys like you, you know?”

“I believe it should be plenty decent and not relatively, though.”

I picked up the request papers that was handed to me and started to flip through it.

“Hey, the first request is the ‘Wandering Dragon’ Granvalis who came to this continent for the first time in five years, you know? You should take a better look at it.”

“How many people will be working on this request…?”

“Well, no doubt it’s going to be large-scale I suppose. I won’t stop you if you want to do it alone, though!”

Of course, I never said a single word I would accept it.

It seemed to have been handed to me appropriately; requests of high importance were grouped together at the upper part—at the lower part, there were more investigation requests and such.

Although not high urgency, there were also requests that were top secret. And one of them caught my eye.

“…The Empire?”

“Yeah, it seems to be two ‘mages’ who came across the border without permission. I heard it’s also unknown why they came here, you know? The ‘Knight Order’ still can’t deal with it, so it looks like they sent it here as a request. Well, the urgency is not that high.” So Runan said, but it was also a well-timed request for me.

This meant, that someone from Laveira Empire were coming to our side in secret. Doing such a thing would most likely akin to something related to a job from the country.

I decided to take on several jobs, including that one.
