The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 223: Ready to Ascend

”Oh, what a nice name, mine is Eryon. Well, the thing is, I got a little out of it yesterday and I don’t remember what happened from the middle onwards. If you know, could you tell me? I don’t know if I did something wrong and offended Lady Akihara unintentionally.”

If I’m going to feign ignorance and pretend I don’t remember anything about when I went crazy, maybe that will help me, and along with the aura of purity will help me make it more believable.

”...”

She stared at me with a doubtful face, but she also looked relieved that I didn’t remember, and well, I can kind of understand why, but I have to get what I want out and went on with my act.

”....Don’t tell me I really did something wrong, if so I’m so-sorry, m-my life is now in danger?”

I made a tearful and vulnerable expression that matched a lot with this young appearance, and pure aura , it seemed to touch something inside the dark elf in front of me, who for a moment seemed to have a shiver, and several different intentions were coming from her.

It seemed as if she was holding something back, apparently she had an internal conflict, I even noticed that her breathing became a little rougher.

”.....Bueno, some things certainly happened... but Mr. Eryon need not worry, my mistress dawned satisfied... and in fact she directly ordered me to treat him as well as possible during his stay here, which she expects to be a long one.”

’good damm! well done me, well done Shenlong, part 1 of the plan is done.’

Things turned out well and it seemed that my life was not at risk. I had won the bet my lust had forced me to make. Well, that was the important thing. Now, the next thing was...

”Oh!? That’s good, I’m glad Lady Akihara was satisfied. When can I meet her to do it again?”

”Do you still want to continue with...! Ehem, I mean, right now my mistress is busy with a matter, so she can’t see her until tonight.”

She seemed surprised that I wanted more with everything I had already done, but honestly if I wanted more, I only fell because she knocked me out not because I was tired.

Like that time with Elena, who launched a sneak attack on me and didn’t let me extend my record.

If I had a coin for the number of times a maid knocked me out to avoid further sex, I’d have only two, but it’s funny that it happened twice. I honestly wondered what my limit was.

Certainly it is a secondary function of a powerful art, not for nothing this is an art of a legacy that is meant to confront gods.

”That’s a pity, but at least I can spend time with you, right?”

”If you wish, I can spend my time... to entertain you, as my mistress ordered me to make you as comfortable as possible.”

She certainly looked like a straight employee, a bit like Elena, but I can also tell as if she was thinking something else, as she answered me.

And from the faint redness in her bluish skin, I had a theory of what she might be thinking right now, if I play my cards right I could take advantage of this situation.

”Oh!? That’s good, there’s nothing better than spending time with a beautiful woman.”

”...Eryon-sama doesn’t need to flatter me.”

’Oh!!!, so if it works on her.’

I suddenly heard the ”sama”. Which makes me wonder why it didn’t work on Elena, again use my self-perception of language kicks in and helps me understand and adapt to how I want them to sound.

I would say that, for an ex-otaku, hearing something like that resonates something in me, and more than once, when I discovered this, I tried to hear Elena say that, but no matter how hard I tried, it never worked.

But I think it’s because I want her to stop being so formal with me to begin with, that subconsciously I can’t do this.

Now that I no longer have anything to worry about in my current situation, my fetishes are starting to come out.

’No, wait, before all that, I need to move up... hummm, well.... I think I can take a bit of a risk. It’s still no big deal and it wouldn’t be that weird.’

”So, Veyrith, may I call you Vey?”

”If you wish, Eryon-sama.”

She looked serious, but I could feel a touch of happiness in her. It seems that she really has a positive interest towards me, well being handsome definitely had its advantages.

”So, Vey, since I woke up, I feel like my core has a bit of pressure, and I think I’m about to move up.”

”Huh? Really?!?”

”Well, I’ve been feeling close for a while now, and maybe because I went overboard yesterday and overstepped my boundaries so to speak, I feel like I’m about to ascend to the fifth metamorphosis.”

”Oh, that’s understandable. It is true that yesterday you did things that would not be easily done by someone with only four metamorphoses. Certainly, you seemed to use your body to the fullest. It’s a strange way, but it makes sense.”

”Yeah, it’s funny, in a way, isn’t it?”

While it was a bit silly, basically, it was feasible to say that I did intense physical training for twelve hours straight yesterday.

If you’re already close to the limit, it’s not so crazy that you can move up after all that physical and endurance exercise.

No one can see the state and statistics, and the people of this world are always guided by a kind of feeling that is reached little by little, until a certain limit is reached and the body begins to react.

In humans it’s an itching sensation and strange pain in the muscles, while in demons it’s a pressure in their core.

”Well, the point is that I want to ascend. I wanted to know if it was okay to do so.”

”Humm... well, I don’t see why not. My mistress won’t be in, and it wouldn’t be more than half an hour. You can do it at your leisure. ”

”Oh, is that so? That’s good.”

”Yes, if you need anything or my help during the process...”

”Oh, it’s not necessary. I always do it alone and feel calmer, but if it’s not too much to ask, could you give me some pure spring water? It does me good to calm my mind. I used to have some in my storage, but...”

”Oh, that’s right. Don’t worry, I’ll return your storage shortly.”

With that said, Vey left the room quickly. I didn’t understand why, but she seemed very happy , even with everything I did to her yesterday she had positive favorability, towards me or is it precisely because of that... hummm.

If this were a game, I feel like her favorability would be near the top, and that’s not good, because all the heroines who easily raised favorability were possibly ”yanderes”.

”...Well, that only happens in games, that logic doesn’t work here..., does it?” .... Maybe he likes me fast because I also have bluish skin”.

As for the things he needed to ascend, He didn’t need anything, but this is a naturally water-tuned race, and those who ascend need to be as calm as possible and have their minds stable.

For starters, the storage bag that was taken from me was not my main bag, I knew it might happen to take it from me, so I had hidden it very well.

Instead the one I was carrying was part of supplementing my identity and quarters, That water is something that those who normally belong to my race use during their ascension.

Luckily, I had it, as I usually buy it because it is a good moisturizer for the skin and helps with beauty massages, which I would do to my girls and myself from time to time.

’This body may be a woman’s body, but now it’s my temple.’

Yes, maybe because now I have the legacy and although it is not permanent I can transform into a man, thanks to that my mentality is very different from my alternate self, who wanted to get rid as fast as possible of the identity of being a woman, to the degree of obsession, which I understand. But for me this point, I don’t really care about this issue.

I know how nearly impossible it is, because of the failings of my alternate self, so I simply accept it along with my identity which my alternate self could never do.

If by this point I was given the opportunity to truly be a man again, I wasn’t sure I would take it, obviously that wouldn’t be the case, if I didn’t have the legacy, but now I have no complaints with being a girl, a girl who has a harem of women. My tastes if immutable that will never change.

’Hey, who the hell are you making excuses for?’

’I just got lost in my thoughts. Don’t bother me, you bastard.’

’Hey, you do the same thing sometimes.’

Yeah, I feel like every day I’m away from the girls is affecting me more. Lately I’m talking to my parallel thinking a lot lately, something that’s not very constructive..... Haaa.

’Selene, Eira, I miss you, and tell the rest I miss you too.’

I sent my intentions and emotions through the always active resonance, in response, I got back a ’I miss you too’ in the form of sensations and intentions, and a ’Hmph!, me too’.

Obviously, they were just emotions and intentions, but the fact that I unconsciously understood the second one that way, somehow it was funny, and I’m glad that Eira returned to peace and quiet and I only hope that Silvia is well.
