The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 230: Just a Rumor

”Whew..., that was intense.”

I had just come from dropping Vey off inside the room. I didn’t go crazy, at least not like yesterday, and we were done in less than three hours. In the end,she passed out from the pleasure, and after performing a thorough purification, I left her in my room, well dressed and tidy.

It was almost a habit for me to tidy up the messes I made, but I don’t think there will be any problem this time.

Well, now, according to Vey, I can go wherever I want as long as the guards don’t stop me. Obviously, my target, no matter where it is, is well guarded.

But before I risk anything, I need a clue as to where he might be. If you’re holding someone captive, it would make sense for him to be in a prison. But the problem is that my target is special, he’s not just any captive.

Leaving aside the current war against humans, in this demonic realm alone there are several forces in conflict. That boy is a person of interest in an internal struggle within the kingdom.

Basically, this is the reason why he is being held captive precisely in this city, which is far away from everything.

And now that I know that Akihara is here, she probably plays a role, at least to some extent, in all of this. However, it her gone so unnoticed that it wasn’t even mentioned in the report my alternate self read.

Now, while he is a captive, the lord could have housed him in his mansion as a ”guest”. Thus, the consequences would be minimal if his side comes out on the losing end.

But as far as I know, all of those things ultimately turn out badly and make no sense, thanks to the intervention of humans.

My goal To begin with, it was a very rare breed and in this world there were very few of them. That boy’s family is the only one that exists and they are no more than a hundred people.

They are a hidden family with little interaction with other petences, but so powerful that they can influence a kingdom like this, hence the conflict.

That boy is the one who carries the weight of his family and the biggest prospect since they were founded. He is definitely someone that the most elite knight troops of the most powerful duke of this kingdom would personally bring to this city and do it in secret.

The good thing is that the informants are good and picked up on this. Apparently, they have their ears everywhere and I can sense that they contacted me after drawing several wrong conclusions from me.

The point is that my target may be in a guarded room instead of being in prison, so it’s time to gather information again. Certainly, I am realizing that information is a deciding factor in many things.

And although I’m doing well now, I’m wondering if I should start forming a group to help me in the future to gather information.

After all, my goal is to basically flip everything and change the future as much as possible to my advantage. having control of the results of those changes should be something to keep in mind and information would be vital to this.

how those damn devils on my continent have done one terrorist attack and financed another. That shouldn’t have happened, and I still don’t understand what changed to make that happen.

The only clue is what Silvia told me: that the gods are blind, not seeing the destination. I don’t know what caused that. Obviously, I myself would be the first suspect, including my alternate self, who did something impossible by going back to the past.

Which I still don’t know how he did. Is that it, or is there some third person moving in addition to myself and my alternate self.

If he could, maybe a second and third can as well. I’m not sure yet.

But this is no longer a timeline that aligns with my knowledge 100%. That first terrorist attack made it clear to me.

”So you know, Ana, Maribel got in trouble for that, and just disappeared, you know?”

Said a maid with a wicked grin as she told the story of her predecessor to the young maid in front of her who was named Ana.

”Hiiii! How scary, now what do I do? They assigned the task to me now...I’m s-scared.”

”Hey, Sara, stop scaring her. Maribel didn’t disappear, she was just assigned to another part of the residence.”

A third servant who was a dark elf intervened and scolded the ruddy-skinned demoness, who was bothering the young light grayish-skinned servant.

”But it is true that she was put to do the worst chores, like cleaning the toilets and washing the dirty clothes, because she made a mistake towards the lord’s guests.”

However, the maid Sara seemed to equally want to annoy the young Ana in some way, so she told her her true fate.

”Hiiii! That’s even worse. I don’t want... Somebody, save me! I’m definitely going to ruin it.”

”Did you see? Now you scared her. Who do you think is next after she fails?”.

”...”

Sara’s smile vanished. She realized her mistake: on the list of people to follow would be herself. And she understood her mistake.

”And don’t even think of failing you too, because the next one would be me.”

”I won’t fail when it’s my turn, I don’t want to wash the dirty clothes, nor the toilets, you’ve seen how they look after a single day of use, I definitely won’t fail.”

”Why does it sound like a given that I will mess it up, don’t be mean to me you are my Senior you should guide me.”

”You yourself just said you were going to ruin it. You already sealed your own grave, and now I’m next...haaah~. I shouldn’t have said anything to you, dig my own grave.”

”Hey! Let’s calm down and act professional. No one is going to fail. We are highly trained maidservants. We shouldn’t fail at something so simple, if nerves don’t get the better of us.”

”That’s the problem! I’m already nervous!”.

”So am I.”

”Damn it! Take care of yourselves! I don’t want to end up cleaning the toilets too. Do your job right so it doesn’t get to me.”

”Hey, you sound like you’re going to fail too.”

”It’s just that I’m nervous too! Damn it... Okay, let’s calm down. Why don’t we talk about something else? Then maybe the nerves will go away.”

”Yes, it’s true. Thinking about it too much is worse...hmm...I know. Did you hear about the lady’s new toy?”

”Oh, I actually wanted to talk about that, but Sara started freaking me out since I was assigned Maribel’s homework, and I haven’t seen her since yesterday.”

”I led him straight before. He’s very handsome and unique, you know? Although most of his kind are handsome, the fact that his skin is less bluish, like ours, made him look more handsome. His blue eyes, instead of the common yellow ones, are also beautiful. It’s the first time I saw someone of his race with platinum white hair. And mainly his horns... he has manly horns that make my...”.

”Hey!!!, calm down, Verna We get it. He’s handsome to the point that you got wet. Stop acting like a maiden in love, you’re married with three kids.”

”I didn’t mean it as a second intention. I just thought he looked especially handsome, that’s all. You haven’t seen him, have you, Sara?”

”No, I haven’t seen him. But what does his looks matter to begin with? He’s the lady’s toy. We can look, but not touch.”

”They say he’s quite a stud. Apparently, the lady took a liking to him, and from noon yesterday until late at night they continued.”

At that moment, Ana jumped into their conversation and said that which she heard from other maids.

”Oh, come on. That’s a rumor. It’s impossible for something like that to happen, you know? My husband is a 5-metamorphosis guard, you know? And he lasts for an hour. There’s no way he could do it for twelve hours, let alone with the lady.”

”Hey, an hour is a lot. I’ve had a lot of boyfriends and they last less than 20 minutes. My current boyfriend is a soldier who is in the war, he has 7 metamorphoses, you know? He’s someone elite, and he only lasts 30 minutes. And he’s the best one to date. You should appreciate your husband.”

”hunm, there I think the problem is you, you know, being a...”

”Hey! Bringing my race into this is prejudiced. Just because we’re a lividly active race doesn’t mean I leave my boyfriend dry and limp when we finish those 30 minutes.”

”Does it?”.

”Well, it does happen, but it’s still a prejudicial thought.”

”...”

”Oh! So it’s just a rumor that he could for twelve hours.”

Ana interrupted the chatter of the other two, since they had left her out of it even though it was the topic she was interested in.

”Yes, no doubt, Ana. You, who have never had a boyfriend, wouldn’t understand. But men run out of energy easily. After three rounds they run out. Even the legendary incubi didn’t last that long with the lady”.

”Hey, Sara! Stop talking vulgarly to Ana. Look how flushed she is.”

”Okay, it’s time for little Ana to get a taste of adult life...”

*****

I had gone here and there looking for information that was relevant to me and, finally, I think I found something about those maids. I was in a corner and had reduced my presence with the help of some darkness spells.

But nothing too strong, so that, even if they found me, I would not be suspicious. The first part of the maids’ conversation seemed to me to be what I was looking for.

It was already late afternoon and but I still had from so to after hours until it was dark, Vey told me that Akihara might want my service in the evening, which was possibly when Akihara would finish whatever it was she had to do.

’Well... it’s time to act.’
