"Master, we're back~♡"
"I'm sorry, Master, I'm late. I'll heal you right away."
Lisbeth and Claire, having returned after handing those guys over to the soldiers, came back to the table with a satisfied expression.
Was it my imagination? They both looked refreshed…did they do something to those guys…? Hmm, as long as it wasn't too much, it should be fine.
"Haa…really, I'm so sorry to everyone. To accept those kinds of people in Ladia…"
"What's there to apologize for, sister? Those guys were trash anyway."
"What happened in Ladia isn't unrelated to me. I have to take responsibility."
Sigh. Even as a lord's wife, there's no need to take responsibility for something like this.
Celes's anger now stems less from a sense of responsibility as a lord's wife…
"How dare they injure Lord Semo…those trashy guys…" It must be from that commendable loyalty to me.
Pfft…our Ceres. "You're really angry.
That angry look. Very satisfying.
That's more like my female. Hmm.
"Don't worry about it. Celeste. It's nothing serious. See? Claire healed it quickly with a little treatment, didn't she? Cecilia's attack was actually more vicious."
"Even if it's just a minor injury, how could you do that to Lord Semo... Ah, really. I'm so sorry, Lord Semo."
Even though it wasn't her place to apologize, Celeste repeatedly bowed her head in apology.
Staring at my now-healed shoulder for a while, Celeste looked at Lisbeth and Claire with a determined expression and asked.
"...Those guys, were they handed over to the night patrol soldiers?"
"...Hehe♡ Well... it's hard to say...♡"
"We handled it perfectly. So perfectly that you didn't even need to lift a finger, sister♡"
"I'll tell you how later, Celeste-neechan♡"
Lisbeth and Claire smiled confidently, as if to say, "Please trust us." A certain unsettling confidence shone on their faces…hmm.
Our little mice.
Looks like they got a real beating.
Tsk tsk…poor thing…what else can we do?
Blame them for choosing to cause trouble when we're around.
"Come on, now that your bellies are full, it's time to slowly go upstairs. Master♡Sister♡"
"Go home and enjoy the night♡"
My females rose from their seats, licking their lips as if in a seductive manner.
Celes, who had been keeping a straight face, gradually softened upon hearing their words, her body trembling slightly as if sensing anticipation.
Pfft…if my females are expecting something, then I have to fulfill their expectations.
Feeling the responsibility of being their master, I led my females home.
...
"Come on, then, sister♡ let's prepare together♡"
"Oh dear. Prepare what?"
"Hehe…♡ We're planning to enjoy the atmosphere in a special place today♡ Come on, sister. Hurry up♡"
As soon as she came up, Claire pulled Celeste into the room that was being used as a makeshift storage room.
Hmm? Prepare what? A special place? What were we originally planning to do today…? Hmm… what is Claire thinking…
"Well then, Liz. Let's go prepare first…"
"Hehe. I know. Master, I'll explain it properly♡"
Before Claire entered the room, she and Lizbet nodded and talked about something.
This is exciting, isn't it? What are they planning?
"Well… the two of you, it seems like you've prepared some special activity today?"
"Aha♡ If it's an activity, then it's an activity♡ Of course, it might change depending on Master's wishes♡"
"Oh… what is it?"
"Hehe…♡ Master…♡" Although it was an activity, Lizbet twisted her body and looked at me as if she had some request.
The instant I saw that familiar expression, I seemed to understand what Lisbeth wanted to say.
"...Don't you think it's time to make Ceres completely submit?"
"Pfft...What? Oh, that's it?"
"Hehe...♡Hmm♡ Claya and I think now is the perfect time...♡" Lisbeth chuckled, giving me a look that seemed to be asking for my approval.
Lisbeth's alluring expression radiated a subtle charm that was irresistible to men.
However, even if my Lisbeth didn't show that expression, I felt the time was almost ripe.
At this point, my females had paved the way perfectly; how could I refuse?
Since things had come to this, why not listen to how my females were preparing to welcome Ceres?
"Hmm...What activities have our Lisbeth and Claya prepared?"
"Hehe♡That...♡" Lisbeth whispered in my ear, describing the special activities for welcoming Ceres.
Listening to her description, I was once again stunned by the females' ingenious ideas.
"...My God. My females' creativity is truly..."
"Hehe♡ How about it? Master, does it sound interesting?"
"It's almost too exciting. But if we get caught..."
"What does it matter♡ Our Ceres-neechan is the de facto lord of Radia♡"
"Hehe. That's true."
How did they come up with something like this... You two have truly grown into excellent beasts.
A mindset that, literally, is beyond the reach of anything less than a beast...! Hmm. Very impressive.
It's just that the opening of this amazing event is a little hard to understand?
"...But why choose the rooftop...? If we're going to carry out their planned activities..."
"Hmm~ Well, because Ceres-neechan is a noblewoman, she seems to lack an understanding of obedience."
"Hmm? Understands?"
"Ceres-neechan still calls Master 'Lord Semo,' right? That means she hasn't expressed her feelings yet."
Oh...I see...So, going to the rooftop is...so Ceres can express her feelings...?
"Please wait a moment, Master♡ I'll go prepare♡" After saying this, Lisbeth also went to the temporary storage room to prepare.
She turned her head slightly to look at me, and with a snicker, Lisbeth made me even more excited.
"Please look forward to Ceres-neechan's true feelings♡"
...
"Pfft...this is..."
"What do you think, Master♡?"
"Exclusively for Master, cute♡"
"Ah, it's bitches...here...♡"
After a short while, three adorable bitches appeared before me.
Wearing animal ears that looked like they came from nowhere, and tails that looked like they were inserted into an anus, their rear ends were adorned with something resembling those of dogs.
Their nearly naked, sexy outfits were complemented by gleaming horseshoe collars around their necks, like dog collars.
Seeing the rope attached to the horseshoe, they probably want me to lead them, right? Heh…
"Heh… my little bitches, aren't they so cute? I just want to pet them right now!"
"Giggle♡ Master's little bitches are always ready to show their bellies♡ Master can pet them anytime he wants♡"
"But, we need to go for a walk first today♡ Come, a spot is ready in the attic, Master…♡"
"Please, please lead us little bitches…♡ Take us away…♡" the three little bitches said, respectfully offering their collars with both hands.
I smiled and took the collars, holding them in my hands.
The moment they saw me hold their collars in my hands, the little bitches immediately lay down, their paws flat on the ground.
I nodded in satisfaction, then led my little bitches towards the attic.
"...Ha. It's gotten like this without me even realizing it..."
As I climbed the stairs to the attic and pushed open the door,
Several slaves stood respectfully, having laid out mats on the floor.
Seeing me lead the little bitches over, the slaves bowed to me.
Hmm, good heavens...when did I call our slaves?
They even prepared magical items?
Even though it's an open roof, it's quite warm.
Thanks to that bead-like magical item...hmm...good heavens...I hadn't even thought about decorating the roof...even though it's temporary, they prepared it so quickly.
Here, I confirm Ceres's sincerity...
"Master♡This way...♡" Naturally, the nun slave Angela had me sit on the prepared chair.
As I sat on the soft chair, my slaves naturally sat down as if they were lying at my feet, rubbing their faces against my legs.
The soft moonlight created an atmosphere. The expansive and beautiful scenery of Ladia.
The moment one of the slaves handed me a wine cup, I felt like the very embodiment of a ruler of the females.
On the moonlit rooftop of the Demon King's castle, the perfect viewing platform prepared for me was complete.
"...Wonderful." Ladia is truly wonderful. Even though it's night, the scenery is breathtaking.
Can my females sense this feeling? Their gazes as they look down upon Ladia seem quite profound.
Especially Ceres, seemingly lost in melancholy… Heh. A female gazing upon the scenery of her homeland. Do you like it, Ceres?
"...I'm so glad you like it, Master."
"This is our city, Celeste's city, of course I like it. It must have been hard rebuilding from the monster invasion, Celeste."
"Hoo hoo♡ After all, it's my hometown. And as the lord's wife, it's my duty."
"Yes, yes...it's a beautiful city...oh, I can see the lord's city over there."
When I pointed to the lord's city in the distance, all my females turned their gazes there.
For a fleeting moment, a subtle expression appeared and then vanished on Celeste's face.
It was an unpleasant expression, clearly the kind that only appears when someone is being thought of.
Seeing this expression, I gently stroked Celeste's head as if praising her.
"Pfft. Our lord, spending the weekend alone, isn't he?"
"Yes. But I don't really care."
"Heh. Our Ceres. Aren't you being a bit too cold to your husband?"
"Hmph...♡ I can't help it. With a broken male, I can't even share the warmth of mating. So I can only become cold♡"
Mocking her broken husband, my female Ceres rubbed her cheek against my leg again, as if seeking warmth.
Lisbeth and Claire watched Ceres giggle.
As prepared beforehand, they, as the seniors who became my females first, posed questions to the junior females.
"Sister. The ruler of each city, you should be considered a lord, right?"
"Hmm...? Yes... a lord who receives authority from the king is equivalent to the ruler of that region."
"So now, your husband Albert is the ruler of Radia, right?"
"Uh...? If you have to put it that way... that's true... but why ask this...?" Ceres tilted her head, seemingly puzzled.
The two female dogs chuckled and asked Ceres, "Don't you think that ruler should be changed?"
They were demanding complete obedience from the female dog named Ceres.
