Chapter 60 – The Princess’ Pet (1)
She had a pretty impressive dream.
I became a puppy and crawled on all fours, and Chloe and Ab, who held my leash, walked ahead holding hands.
That’s funny too, but after that, the goddess who came down from the sky hugged Abu tightly, right? Ab also smiled broadly and wrapped his arms around the waist of the goddess.
Moreover, the three of them entered a dark alley, tied me to a corner, and started biting and sucking each other.
I didn’t do anything, I just whimpered and craved attention to myself.
…Lack of affection these days? I really have all sorts of dreams.
“Um… “
A cool breeze blowing from somewhere awakened my consciousness. The content of the dream, which was no different from a comedy, was scattered little by little.
The sound of chirping birds and the dazzling sunlight announces that it is morning.
Slept soundly It’s been a long time since I went to sleep without worrying about anything.
“Are you awake, Rainier?”
The voice that I heard at the moment when I was twisting my body and being buried in the desire to lie down more.
I immediately opened my eyes at the welcome voice and turned my head towards the place where the voice came from.
“Chloe! When did you come? You were surprised!”
“Puhh… “
Chloe, the kind lady of our party, who always comforts me when I’m having a hard time because of Rafe and Jihyun.
Chloe was sitting on the bed, looking down at me.
The corner of her mouth smirked involuntarily at those benevolent and warm green eyes… Stopped abruptly.
Since when have you been here? Didn’t he drool or scratch his belly in his sleep?!
I tried wiping the area around her mouth, but it was dry. There doesn’t seem to be much of a problem except that the top is rolled up a little and shows off a cute belly button.
Is not it? Is that a big deal?
The fact that he showed her bare skin to Chloe makes him run hot with shame.
As I hurriedly dressed her and trimmed her hair, Chloe gently held my hand and spoke to me softly, as if not paying much attention to her.
“You promised. I will go to the imperial palace today, remember?”
Imperial Palace… It’s the imperial palace…
Yes I promised I’m going to visit the princess as soon as the sun rises today.
Memories of yesterday come flooding back. Chloe was imprisoned alone in her villa, and she warmly hugged me when she was depressed, and asked me to meet the princess to change her mood.
I cried and fell asleep in Chloe’s arms. After that last memory is now.
After all, Chloe is my favorite as much as Ab. It’s so kind, how could you not like it?
But it shouldn’t be like that. Because,
“Hey, Chloe? I want to go out too, but Abu told me not to go out…”
Because Abba said so.
Of course I want to get out of this stuffy corner of the house!
Ab doesn’t even come to see me… That doesn’t mean she doesn’t have food or entertainment in her villa… Communication is poor these days…
I don’t even know why I have to be here in the first place. I’m taking a break saying I look tired these days. In fact, wouldn’t Ab be bothered by me?
I hung my head and spoke in a weak voice like a dying puppy.
“I want to go out too. I want to go out… I made a promise to Ab… “
“Oh. So, was the promise you made with me yesterday a lie?”
“Huh? Oh no! If I leave, Ab will know where I am because of the ring… Yes, that’s how it is.”
That’s why I couldn’t sneak out for a walk.
Ring location tracking function. As long as I have this ring, Ab will immediately notice wherever I go.
Seeing that, it’s a bit creepy. If you abuse this, you can also use it for stalking.
“Okay. Is that why you said no?”
“Huh… “
“Well… Can you take off the ring and leave?”
“Whew… Yes, I want to get out of this prison too… Huh? What?”
Did you hear something strange?
Chloe smiled as she stroked my head, which was blinking in embarrassment.
“Let’s take off the ring and leave. Then Abel will think that Rainier will stay at the villa.”
“Hey, Chloe… Still, this ring… “
It’s a proof of your love for Abu.
“Why don’t you take off the ring? Could that have been a bad thing?”
“Oh, no… “
“Then you don’t want to leave with me. All right. So even if I’m alone… “
“No more! Me, I’m good for Chloe!”
It was a big deal. Chloe doesn’t seem to be in a good mood.
The fact that she is still half-opening her eyes lazily remains the same… The gap between the eyebrows narrowed slightly.
Was Chloe upset because I was frustrated? As I looked at her hesitantly, Chloe muttered to herself quietly.
“Ha… Did she temporarily get younger to her mental age…? It’s really annoying…”
“Oh, okay, sorry… I’ll follow you…”
I don’t want Ab to be angry, but… I hate to see Chloe upset. Yes, both are precious to me.
Yes, what I’m leaving it out for a while. Is there anything wrong?
And you’re not going to do anything bad. I’m just going to get some fresh air… Yep.
At that time, she had a ring that she hadn’t taken off once since Ab had put it on her. She puts her right hand on the ring.
Just holding the ring that was warmed by her body temperature felt like an electric current flowing through it.
Cold sweat flows My heart beats like the first and last time I stole candy from her store.
“Flaw… Huh… Hey, Chloe… Can I do this? I don’t think I should be like this… “
“… Leave her ring loosely on the table and come down. I’ll be waiting for you in the garden.”
“Chloe-!”
Ugh… I don’t know either now!
Chloe really went down to the end of that statement. When that happened, I couldn’t hesitate any longer.
I think that if I try moxibustion, I will change my mind, so I pull out the ring at once, and put the ring on the table.
I wondered if Chloe would really leave on her own, I urged myself as she hurriedly changed her clothes.
Since you are going to meet a high-ranking person, be as tidy as possible. Brushing her hair a little…
“Chloe! Gee, I’m going down now!”
Finally, after looking alternately at the table and the ring finger of her left hand, where the feeling of the ring remained, she hurriedly followed Chloe out of the villa.
My heart was uncomfortable for a while, but I started to throb at the thought of seeing the imperial palace and the princess for the first time.
***
“Please, allow me to meet the empress…”
“Ha… Because you can’t? And, in the first place, do we have to believe what the hero believes in and open the gate to the Pandemonium? What was the hero’s performance so far?”
“Princess Iris… !”
A truly clueless person. That’s a sentence that can describe this man amazingly accurately.
Warrior? Hero is great. With the fate of defeating the Demon King by being chosen by the goddess… Blah blah.
Honestly, it’s all pointless. It’s been a long time since a peace treaty was signed with the demon king, and the empire is being maintained peacefully, so why bother?
The Empire does not want war. Mincho wants complete peace by eliminating potential enemies, but the imperial family, the head and heart of the empire, does not like change.
It’s not corrupt. Just don’t waste it on unnecessary expenses.
“Get out. And I hope you don’t come to me for unnecessary things like this tomorrow. Sir Cedric? Serve this warrior who is ahead of his courage.”
“Yes!”
“Ugh… Miss Iris…!”
“Come on. I want to close my eyes until the next guest arrives. Just because he was chosen by the goddess, he was tormented by an idiot who mistook himself for something.”
Wouldn’t it be better if he entertained me by acting as a clown or a male prostitute?
As long as he doesn’t do both of those things and acts stiff like that, there’s no reason why I should be at his convenience.
“Ah… Boring, empty. How can these feelings eat away at humans… “
I muttered softly as I watched the departing hero and Sir Cedric guide him.
A daily routine that repeats itself day by day. A life of stamping documents and listening to the farts of corrupt officials. The bondage of a dancer without change and entertainment.
It’s not disgusting. It’s just that I lament and resent my boring, uninteresting life.
“Chloe… Can you not disappoint me?”
To be honest, my expectations aren’t that great. How much fun it would be to see the choice of a saint who spent her life praying in a monastery.
Chances are slim, but… Well, if you can give me a little pleasure, if you bring her joy back to me, I’ll give her what she wants any number of times.
I leaned back in my chair, crossed my legs, and closed my eyes for a moment.
“Iris. The saintess and her companions have arrived.”
“Hmm. Stop by.”
At some point, I heard the voice of Sir Cedric, who had returned to his seat.
Had she closed her eyes longer, she might have dozed off.
Deeply relieved at the exquisite timing, I cautiously took my gaze toward the open door.
The first person to come into sight is, of course, Chloe, a saintess with blonde hair and a bright smile.
However, it took a while for her attention to be attracted to the woman who would reply that she was beautiful. She couldn’t help but shift her gaze to the noisy one next to him.
“Wow… ! Hey, Chloe! The room is bigger than any house! Amazing, Great…”
What is it This filthy furry creature.
I was suspicious, but I pretended not to know and greeted Chloe.
“Chloe, did someone who can’t even look after me manage to find me? You’re getting better.”
“Puhh… That’s because there are cute guide dogs. Come on, par… In Lenny? Say hello to Princess Iris.”
“Oh? Oh hello… !”
“Hmm.”
She certainly seems to be a little short of a woman.
A face that looks fierce because it is smiling like an idiot. Even to me, who can be said to be the next ruler of the empire, that ridiculous etiquette…
…At least, it’s going to be bad this time too.
Even the hope that was at least had cooled down.
“Yeah, good. Since we don’t have much time, shall we take a look at the presents we’ve prepared for you? I believe that even you, whose eyes are darker than the abyss, would have shown more sense than the male monkey who came before.”
“Um… Are you already showing it? Did you not like it?”
Chloe replied and tilted her head.
“…Are you trying to scorn me now?”
I couldn’t help but frown at the answer. It was a natural reaction since I didn’t receive or see anything.
“Puhhhhh… It can’t be, can it? I am clearly showing Iris the ‘thing’ I brought.”
“…”
I annoyedly tapped her fingertips on the table, guessing her intentions.
Is it a pun? To say that, the tone doesn’t feel playful.
As she stared at her softly closed eyes to get a sense of her thoughts, Chloe patted the blue creature next to her and sent it forward.
“Now, Rainier? You should introduce yourself to the new owner.”
“Uh? Ah yes! I’m Rainier, I’m in charge of the wizard in the Hero party. My hobby these days is cooking, and my favorite dish is eggs… “
…This is disrespect.
I didn’t even listen to the poor woman’s words until the end, and I slammed the table and stood up. The blue girl was startled by the sound and hid behind Chloe’s back, trembling.
“Stop! Now… What are we going to do?”
No matter how much the saintess has higher authority than the pope, here, in the imperial family, the authority is higher for the royal family than for the saintess.
Undoubtedly, what Chloe was doing right now was deception, humiliation, and transgression.
“I’ve been getting annoyed with him since broad daylight, so what kind of boring pun is this? Chloe, no matter how much you are a saint, you will no longer stand by… “
Chloe shook her head, cut off my angry words, and spoke again.
“The ‘thing’ I brought is this ruler. Miss Iris.”
“…Yes?”
With those words, he pushed the purple woman forward. I was completely bewildered by those words and actions and stood still.
“That means you’re going to give me a slave or something… “
“This is not just a slavish ‘thing’. She is the lover of that irritating man, Hero Abel Netori.”
Abel Netori. The warrior who just came. The annoying guy’s lover?
“Lenny? Sit down please.”
“Yes!”
The blue-haired girl bent down as soon as Chloe finished speaking.
She put her hands on the floor and spread her legs wide to the left and right, showing off a vulgar posture.
Even the sex slaves who served me at night had a lewd side that I couldn’t easily show.
“As you can see, I listen very well, right? How are you feeling now? Uh huh…”
Bad taste. I couldn’t help but think that when I saw the fishy smile hanging over the saintess’ gentle face.
She is a twisted seed of the same kind as her mother and older brother. It was nonsense that the saintess, who was said to be the representative of the goddess, had become so corrupted.
So that,
“Kuh, kuh… !”
Laughter leaks out For the first time in a month, no two months, or a year, I laugh out loud.
“Puhaha… ! Chloe, oh… Chloe! Really… Incredible! Admit it. This is the best gift I’ve ever received!”
“Puh… Thank you.”
“Go, thank you… “
What if I refused? This cunning saint must have somehow reached out to her brother and her mother and offered this gift.
In that case, not only would I not have felt this pleasure alone, but the gift would have been ruined in a mess not long after.
So no.
The value of this isn’t trivial enough to end as a one-off like that. It is a treasure that should be cherished and loved for a hundred days and a thousand days.
“Ranie, then I will go back.”
“Uh… ? Chloe? Then me, I… ?”
“I’ll be back around evening, so in the meantime, please listen carefully to the words of the princess.”
“Yes… Okay.”
The merciful me saves the fate of being dedicated to the two of them. What a beautiful deed!
And I monopolize what no one else can have. What neither the empress, the empress of the empire, nor her son could have, I alone!
“Under… ! Chloe, I’ll prepare what you said. I don’t know how many times I’ve laughed so hard.”
“Thank you. Uh huh… !”
I held the fallen saint’s hand and smiled without any pretense.
How wonderful it was that she was such a human being, and the warm blood flowing through her hands!
