Chapter 81 – [Porter] Persuasion
After the incident at the palace was over, the hero party headed to Aseila.
Really? Why?
I thought I’d never hear of these guys for the rest of my life, but they don’t know what people do.
What kind of sword is Aseila?
City of prostitutes.
There is no need for long words, this one is over.
This stupid Hero party is going to investigate the city steeped in such decadence and pleasure.
I’m already looking forward to it.
You can’t miss this golden opportunity.
And at the same time, apart from this expectation, I was working on the groundwork for Arin’s corruption in earnest.
The result is now this.
“The sun is her eyes, so to speak, dawn is before the goddess opens her eyes. This is why various sins occur intensively during this time period. The time when everything in the world is asleep… “
Blah blah.
Why am I quietly listening to this nonsense?
It was to match Arin’s mood.
These days, Arin was very disappointed because no one listened to him seriously.
Seriana Hero didn’t show off her openly, but Yuni ran away saying it wasn’t fun.
It was only then that Arin realized that his sermons were really filthy and uninteresting.
“… Oh, I’m sorry. Again, I was excited and chattered by myself.”
“No. It was a very interesting story.”
Arin kept her mouth shut to see if she remembered Uni’s words after talking again and again and glanced at me.
It’s really fucking boring here. You shouldn’t be making a fucking face.
You have to actively show her that you heard her with interest.
Ugh, to waste so much time just for something like this.
“So you’re saying that if she does bad things during the day, she’ll be caught by that goddess?”
“Good question! People who have heard this usually misunderstand that…”
Let’s be patient.
Now that she’s talking to her about her favorite topics, she’s so friendly, yet she and I haven’t gotten to know her enough to have a deeper conversation.
Considering that she was almost hostile to me until recently, it’s easy for her to come this far.
Perhaps the hero’s changed attitude played a part in improving the relationship.
Feeling grateful to the hero, I listened to her words with one ear and let it out with the other.
“Let’s rest for a while.”
At the words of the hero, everyone collapsed into their seats.
A face full of fatigue.
The side effects of playing and eating in the palace were being revealed in this place.
You should have taken care of that.
Seeing her so confused after being released once, it was hard to advance to a first-class party.
Look Aren’t I so bubbly?
Unlike them, hard management… I didn’t.
What is it, why are you fine?
I didn’t even notice because it was so natural, but it seems that my stamina has improved a lot lately.
Even now, heavy luggage hangs from my back, but I feel more energetic than the party members who carry nothing.
Well, his stamina is better than them. In a way, it’s natural, but I think this level is a bit beyond common sense.
Could this be because of the tattoo?
No, what are so many features?
I glanced around and saw that Seria was panting as she set her load down.
Yes, do you understand my troubles now?
Carrying part of my burden for her, her mouth popped out, but she didn’t complain at me.
No slave dares to complain to his master.
It was nonsense that the slave would go comfortably alone while the owner was carrying his luggage.
Considering her stamina, she only scooped up enough to keep from falling down.
It will be a good opportunity to train your stamina and develop your obedience to me.
And…
I can feel the intense gaze from earlier.
Damn, can’t we just take a break for once?
I held back her sigh and turned her head, and Arin pretended to be nothing and gave me intense eyes.
Anyone who sees it will know that it’s a year of unrequited love.
But what can I do, it’s what I started.
Just try to fall into my hands.
I’ll even pee on the goddess statue and make it cheap.
I approached her with her trudging, dreaming of her not-so-distant future.
“I was waiting. What are you curious about today?”
Arin greeted me with a smile.
She is a very kind woman when it comes to religion.
But she shouldn’t be fooled. If you ask about the color of your underwear here, your expression will rot.
I’ll just have to see it that way.
Anyway, it’s my turn to ask a religious question that I’m not really curious about, but wouldn’t it be okay to try a light change of topic?
I judged like that and got lucky.
“There are quite a few monsters today.”
“Yes? Oh, right. Actually, I don’t have much to do, so I feel a little sorry whenever this happens. So what are you curious about?”
As if telling her not to ask such a useless question, she cut it off with a single stroke and returned the topic to normal.
I didn’t expect much, but I’m a little embarrassed to be blocked like this.
At this point, I’ll just have to be honest and push through.
It might be more effective than talking back.
“Is having sex at night to avoid the eyes of the goddess?”
“… Yes?”
Cracks began to appear in Arin’s smile.
“There aren’t many people who have sex in broad daylight. Everyone has sex at dawn, doesn’t that mean people think sex is embarrassing? But sex is the divine that makes life…”
“Ah, I get it! OK, don’t stress!”
Arin waved her hand at her blushing face.
“You mean sex?”
“Eww… Yes…”
Arin showed a funny reaction just hearing the word sex like a virgin.
Oh, she’s a virgin.
Come to think of it, Seria was a crazy bitch who masturbated with stones or staffs even though she had never slept with a man, while Arin was a normal axis.
Since she only hung out with a crazy bitch, I almost became weird.
I’ll have to think about keeping some distance from now on.
“… That, that… It means to value the act of creating life.”
As expected, there must have been quite a few people who thought the same as me, and the church already had the answer to that.
Sex is the sacred act of making babies, so it shouldn’t be done just for pleasure.
Exposing this openly has a bad effect on children who have not yet established the correct sexual values… It was a no-brainer anyway.
It was a well-prepared answer.
I don’t know how persuasive it is because I didn’t listen properly, but then what do I do?
People who have already said it can’t keep it.
“By the way, priest. Then the cock is thrown into the pussy…”
“No, say something…”
It bothers me so much.
“Putting a man into a woman’s hole…”
“…”
I glared at it a little, but it didn’t stop me.
Is this the limit?
Only the words have changed, but the content remains the same.
It’s a standard I can’t understand.
“If it’s not like that, then why?”
“What do you mean?”
Arin didn’t seem to understand what I meant.
“Well, like a masochist or a sadist…”
Looking at the expression, it’s a face that I don’t know what it is.
I’ll have to teach you one by one later.
“… Or something like exhibitionism.”
“Sigh…”
Arin is visibly struggling.
Are you thinking of hiding it?
“Why is that?”
“Ah, ah, no, nothing!”
Arin said that, but she had an agitated expression and she was at a loss.
“There are people who feel good about doing this, but why is it like that when it has nothing to do with making children? Why did Goddess make me feel better with something like this?”
“That’s it… Ordeal from the Goddess…”
Arin’s voice got smaller and smaller as if she wasn’t confident in herself.
I’ve said this before.
When I was pretending to be Seria.
She was a bit more confident then, but seeing that she wasn’t like that now, she must have felt that it was a poor excuse even for herself to hear.
But she won’t let it go
She wasn’t even asking because she was really curious.
“Um, okay. It’s an ordeal I got it.”
“… I, really?”
“Yes. Wasn’t that what you meant?”
“No, that’s right…”
Rather, she stared at her expression at the bottom of her face for a while longer as I convinced her bluntly.
If that’s the case, don’t say anything.
I understood and nodded her head, and Arin wiggled her fingers and fell into her troubles for a moment.
I didn’t bother to disturb her and left her alone.
“I-over there…”
“Yes?”
With a look that doesn’t know anything.
I listened to her question with a naive expression on my face.
“Bah, what you just said… Really?”
“What do you mean?”
Arin said in a voice that she could hardly speak.
“That… There are people who feel better with other things…”
“Ah, masochists and sadists?”
“Well, besides that…”
“Exposure?”
Arin is startled and reacts in an easy-to-understand manner.
It’s very obvious to anyone, but I pretended not to know until the end.
“Well, I don’t know, but I heard that there are quite a few people like that. There are especially many such people in Aseila, where we are going this time.”
“Yeah, that’s right…”
Arin’s face turned red, as if she had imagined it.
“… What do you think, Mr. Jeren?”
“You mean that?”
“Yes yes… You know about this…”
Is this insulting me?
As I slightly frowned on her face, Arin was startled and excused herself.
“Oh no! It doesn’t mean anything different… That… Sorry!”
It means she’s so crowded that she doesn’t even know what she’s spitting out, so she’s good.
“Well, what about her own taste? Even if she looks strange to others, if she enjoys herself, that’s okay. Didn’t you do that last time too? Religion is not necessarily far from pleasure.”
“… It was.”
She was quietly listening to me.
Has the time finally come?
A clash between her beliefs and her own sexual orientation.
In Arin’s way of thinking, unwholesome behaviors such as exposure are things that should be avoided unconditionally.
An act that is socially condemned by anyone who sees it without bringing a doctrine.
For her right upbringing, her deviance would be equated with her sins.
That’s why she will easily come over just by giving her a little justification.
She keeps looking only for logic to deny her own nature, so when she hears a plausible sound that can get both sides, she gets mad at the thought of nonsense.
So I decided to give her that way.
“And maybe it will help again.”
“Any help?”
“Yes. After all, isn’t it just as long as you don’t harm others? If you moderately relieve that desire at a level that is not too severe, you will feel relieved and personally enjoy it, well, wouldn’t it be something like that?”
She was listening to me seriously.
“… But that’s not right.”
“When did the goddess tell you not to walk around naked? Even if you don’t go far, just look at Aseila and you’ll see people walking around almost naked. Are they all sinners then?”
“Hmm…”
Arin didn’t answer right away and was lost in thought for a while.
Now that I think about it, the Hero party was on the way to visit the people of Aseila because they were suspicious.
No, then what if the answer comes back saying yes?
Then I have nothing to say.
Before I was embarrassed by my sloppy logic, I added hastily.
“Go, start with something simple! It’s okay to start with the easy ones. What… That, if it’s exposure, lightly… If you don’t wear underwear… ?”
“Yes? Cow, underwear?”
Unexpectedly, she stuttered and covered her mouth with her hand.
“Yeah, but what if I get caught… ?”
No, it’s the setting that you’re not talking about yourself.
Have you already forgotten about that?
It was a little embarrassing, but if I pointed this out, all the opportunities I had accumulated would be lost, so of course I didn’t tell them about it.
“I don’t even take off my outerwear, so will you get caught?”
I’m confident, but the warrior won’t notice for a while.
If she was that smart, there’s no way she could be this calm even while Seria is falling over.
Seria knows, but she won’t show off.
Because I will do that
In the end, only Yuni has to be careful…
He honestly doesn’t know what to do.
It’s a bit difficult to induce a reaction because she’s a woman who doesn’t know where she’ll bounce.
Well, if she finds out, it’s just… Guess you’re out of luck
“Hmm… Is that so… ?”
“Well, honestly, who knows if I don’t wear panties or anything like that? It’s not like there are people peeping inside.”
“Yeah, that’s right…”
Arin nodded her head with a slightly bewitched face.
Well, you won’t completely trust my words, but at least it’s a success if you think it’s plausible.
At the point where the conversation was over, I felt a presence for some reason, so I glanced sideways, and the hero was sneaking towards us.
I see you care.
You don’t have to give me any reason to be suspicious.
“It’s a bit long. Is it okay if I ask you something else?”
“Yes? Oh sure! What are you curious about?”
That’s how we had a boring religion class.
And since that day, Arin stopped wearing her underwear every once in a while.
It was a fact that Seria secretly observed and informed her that her nipples were sticking out from between her clothes and that her underwear was still in her bag.
It worked better than I thought.
It was an unsatisfactory result.
If this is the case, I think it would be good to expect a little more fun situation in Aseila.
From the other side of the field of vision, Aseila was getting closer little by little.
I eagerly walked toward Aseila with a thrill of anticipation.
