Chapter 8: 8

Chapter 08: The more your prey runs, the more you want them

 

“By the way Carol, would you be alright? I mean, even if the maids are with you, walking around at this hour… your family would be worried.”

I said slightly looking away from Carol.

“… They would normally be very worried, but now that I’m with Haruto-sama, it doesn’t matter anymore! But…”

“?”

Carol was enthusiastic at first, but at the end of her conversation, she lost her confidence. So I urged her to continue with a glance.

“I might be a little scared to go home in the middle of the night like this…”

She broke her gaze and gave me a panicked look. Perhaps due to the afterglow from earlier, her cheeks were slightly cherry-red, her eyes were moist, and her lips were trembling.

……

This girl came to see me. I didn’t think she would have come all the way out here if I had been there for her at the end.

I was sure she came to my stall after hearing about it from the head maid, Siesta, yesterday. But I couldn’t set up my stall today because I had a quest to do.

“I’ve been looking for you for a long time…”

The line she uttered as soon as she saw me, running to me.

I shouldn’t be bothering Carol any more than I already had.

I guess you could say I was involved in her being out here so late.

So I was taking the responsibility for returning her safely.

Thinking this, I spoke to the beautiful girl who was staring off into the distance with a sad expression on her face.

“I’ll take you home.”

“Eh?”

“I know it’s about an hour’s walk, but I can’t let Carol go home like this. That incident just happened recently. So I’ll take you to your house.”

Carol’s eyes widened as she ruffled the back of her hair as she asked,

“A-are you okay with that? I can’t be bothering Haruto-sama…” [TLN- damn, lady, you’re a Class 5 wizard too]

“I’m all done with work, so I don’t have much to do tonight. Ah, maybe I will have something for dinner, since I dropped the squid pancake earlier.”

“W-well, I’ll take your word for it… thank you so much.”

“I’m good. When I was training, I had to carry heavy things on my back and run for dozens of kilometers. And it’s not that far either.”

“Training?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I’m a former soldier, so I told you about the past. Don’t worry about it.”

Yeah. It wouldn’t be any fun to talk to this beautiful girl about my time in the Special Forces. But Carol said something that I didn’t expect.

“I’m very curious to know what kind of soldier Haruto-sama was! If you don’t mind, I’d like to…”

*Grumble*

A sound came from Carol’s stomach.

“Kya! This is not… uuu…”

Carol seemed to be as hungry as I was. Perhaps the two maids waiting outside were also hungry.

So I was gonna…

With a smug look on my face, I asked.

“How about some takoyaki?”

“Tako? Yaki?”

X X X

“What is it? This! I’ve never tasted anything this good before!”

“Lady Carol, your mouth is stained. You usually look so graceful…”

“And yet this food is truly wonderful. The shape is round and very cute, but the outside is crispy and the inside is soft and… nn… hot!

Carol and the two maids were eating takoyaki with delight. They enjoyed eating the food I made. I felt like that alone was enough to satisfy me.

“Good thing I had it with me.”

With that said, I started devouring the takoyaki too.

She was very well developed and straight, although her hair was short and she was still very young compared to her mother, Agnes, and her sister, Alice.

If I had a sister, would she be like her?

Well, if such a beautiful and cute girl was my sister, I felt like that would be a lot of work. But when I saw Carol’s smile, I felt in my heart that I was really glad that I helped her.

What you will hear in this reception room was the sound of three women’s modest chewing and one healthy man’s chewing.

It was like ASMR, it was so comfortable to listen to, and before we knew it we had already finished our takoyaki.

After talking for a while the four of us had some drinks, then I asked Carol.

“Should we get going?”

“Yes!”

As we walked, Carol and I talked about many things. We talked about the mysterious group that attacked the villa, some information about the country, the Medici family, and so on. Two of the most memorable things we talked about were,

when she mentioned Agnes-san’s husband died while protecting the three of them, and as they mentioned earlier, the three Medici beauties, including Carol, wanted to repay me.

I replied that they didn’t have to worry about anything else as far as repaying the favor, but Carol was stubborn.

But still, didn’t she bring a carriage or something?

Well, after walking for about an hour, we came across a familiar sight. It was the Medici family’s house where the incident happened.

As soon as the person who seemed to be the gatekeeper saw us, she tilted her head. But she seemed to understand the situation right away and hurriedly opened the gate for us.

Then we stood in front of a door that led into a gorgeous castle-like building. Then the two maids who had been with us the whole time rushed inside. I asked in my mind why they went in first when they could have gone in together, but, well, I guessed there were a lot of things to be said for that. Carol and I were left behind. Someone should be coming to pick us up soon. The time to say goodbye was approaching.

As I was preparing myself for this, the door was opened.

Two ladies came outside dressed in easy to move dresses. Alice in a blue dress and Agnes-san in a beige dress.

There wasn’t any fearful complexion on their faces, like I saw before. And as soon as they saw my face, their blue and emerald eyes moistened with their mouths half open.

“You, Harutou-sama…”

Agnes-san said to me, her whole body shaking as if she had been shocked. Her expression was sad and her voice was trembling.

When people reacted like this, I couldn’t help it.

So I replied while capturing her beautiful emerald eyes.

“I’m glad you’re safe and sound.”

I relaxed my face, and Agnes-san, still in disbelief, muttered.

“It’s truly… truly you…”

“?”

She came towards me with a light step, and then…

She hugged me.

“!?”

My body endlessly sank as I was embraced by an extraordinarily beautiful lady. Agnes-san’s embrace was so soft and gentle that I should be able to shake her off as much as I want if I wanted to. However, as if an invisible chain was holding me back, I was unable to break free. As I was struggling against this sweet scent and touch, I heard her beautiful voice in my ear.

“Thank you so much for saving my girls…”

I couldn’t say a word back. As I said before, it was partly due to her beauty.

But more than that.

Because she was overflowing with a heartfelt love for her own two daughters, I was speechless with that motherly love. I couldn’t believe she was talking about her daughters first and not about herself…

I couldn’t help but to shake my body a little. It felt like something black and dusky was stirring inside me…

But Agnes-san’s very soft body absorbed all my uneasiness. However, Agnes-san, who noticed something was wrong, looked at my face and gently pulled away.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for showing you my embarrassing appearance…”

“No, I’m fine. Your reaction is justified.”

“I’m so glad you said that…”

A relaxed air flowed into the room. Since the conversation had stopped, I was dazed and wondering if I should cut to the chase. I was a little concerned, but Alice, who was next to Agnes-san, just stared at me the whole time and didn’t say anything.

“Oh, by the way, I haven’t introduced myself yet… I am Agnes de Medici, the Duchess of Leinster here.”

Agnes-san politely introduced herself with a bow. I was afraid my eyes were going to be drawn to the marshmallow, which was too big, but I tried my best to keep my composure.

“My name is Alice de Medici…”

Alice, who had been staring at me the whole time, said in a small voice. Whether she was wary or shy, it was hard to read Alice’s behavior.

“I’m Haruto Takatori. Takatori is my last name and Haruto is my given name. If it’s complicated for you, you can call me Haruto as I mentioned before.”

”Yes. I’ve heard a lot about Haruto-sama from the head maid.”

“Haha… the story moves quickly then.”

While Agnes-san and I were talking, Carol went next to Alice and exhaled with a debauched expression on her face.

Alice was still staring at me as usual. I couldn’t help but feel something heavier just like when Carol was showing me the same look at the inn where I was staying just a few hours ago.

I thought I should call it a night. It’s not good to stay too long.

“It’s late, time for me to go back.”

“Why? Already?”

“Yes. Since Carol has returned safely, and I have some business to attend to tomorrow.”

“Is that so? I’m very sorry to leave you.”

“Hahaha…”

“I would have liked to have a cup of tea and a long talk with you, but if you have business to attend to, I don’t blame you…”

I felt as if my heart was being stimulated by Agnes-san’s voice. Agnes-san seemed disappointed, but looking straight at her bewitching expression, I felt as if I might be sucked in, so I looked away a little and replied.

“Well, then…”

“Haruto-sama.”

Just as I was about to turn on my heel, Agnes-san asked.

“Will the stall be open again tomorrow?”

“I won’t be able to do it tomorrow.”

“What about the day after tomorrow?”

“I might be able to do it the day after tomorrow.”

“The day after tomorrow… I guess.”

“Is something the matter?”

“No, good luck with your work! Oh, the gratuity, I must bring it!”

“Gratuity? Ah! No, that’s fine! I don’t want that!”

“It is unbecoming of me as a noble to give nothing back when you have saved our life, including our servants.”

“Really, that’s fine. If you want to thank me, help someone else for that, not me. I’m happy with that.”

“Haruto-sama…”

“Well, I’ll see you guys soon.”

I left them like that and walked away.

X X X

Three beautiful women were left behind. They just stared at the back of Haruto and exhaled.

They looked sad, as if remembering a bygone era, but there was hope for the three of them.

They’ll see him again.

They wanted to take him into a pink swamp where he would be stuck forever.

After experiencing firsthand what he said and did today, the girls were convinced of their hope.

“Carol.”

“Yes, sister.”

“I’d like to hear you tell me what happened with Masta, Haruto-sama… and I’d like to hear it in details”

“Actually, I also wanted Dear Sister Alice to hear all about it…”

“Let’s go to my room then. It’s been a while since we’ve talked all night. It’s bad for my skin, but I don’t care. I want to know more about Masta… Haruto-sama.”

“Yes… Dear Sister Alice…”

The beautiful pink sisters started walking towards their room with an ecstatic look on their faces, as if they were possessed.

Agnes was left alone.

Her body shaking,

As she opened her mouth, her saliva pulled like strings.

“Haruto-sama… when you react like that, it makes me want more… I haven’t had this feeling… in a very long time. I’m so happy to see you… Ufu.”
