Here we go, reviews have been mostly positives, but with some complaints that I can understand. Some people are complaining about the first perspective, which I suppose I can understand. Like I said before I wanted to give this fanfic a feel of a BISHOP game or just H-Games in general which are in first perspective. Some parts will be in third-perspective of course, but if too much don't like it, I will change it to the third.
Second, a few complained about the whole demon thing. Honestly that was simply the first idea that came to mind. The identity of the demon will be revealed later on, but I can see why it might irritate a few people. Like I said, this is an enslavement fic, so it's not like I can write him off as the good guy while he is doing this. And the inner Naruto will come out at times. And other people's perspective the demon will act like him.
As for lemons. While I can't say I will write them in the immediate future of the story, know they will come soon.
Here's how it will work. There will be three stages where the demon gathers information on the girls and interacts with them. Stage four will have an incident occur that the demon will use. And stage five will be the first lemon with each respective girl. Still debating on who to tackle first.
Stage One.
The spirit looked down at the women with a haunted look in its eyes. The manic look in her eyes, the way she looked at him…a strange combination of fear and reverence.
"It…it felt so good!" He realized with a sigh of ecstasy. Seeing that woman utterly succumb to him. Never before has he felt something so intoxicating, and so damn satisfying!
It needs to happen again. He can never not feel that happen again.
Naruto Uzumaki turned his head around. It was a clear area. He couldn't make anything out except for a shining red light.
That light…it feels so beautiful…he has to reach it no matter what.
"Do you accept me?"
What a strange question. Why on earth would he not accept such a kind voice?
The arms were red, before they turned pitch black. Naruto didn't care. These arms made him feel safe.
The dark hands grabbed the boy's face and looked down at him with manic smile.
"Thank you Uzumaki…with your acceptance of me, they will all be mine soon…"
DING DONG!
'SON OF A-!"
Apparently there was a great bell at Eostia's Castle that rings three times a day. One to signify morning, one for the afternoon, and one for the nighttime.
Due to its loud sound, the morning ring serves as the impromptu alarm for all the officials of Eostia's castles. And also a good warning to all the lazy workers for when you are slacking off.
I sighed as I got off the bed. I was imprisoned for so damn long, sleeping in a warm fluffy bed was such a new experience for me. I am ever so grateful that my host is actually someone who could've lived his life well.
Now today is the day. The day where I start my goal of enslaving the Nine Central Women of Eostia's Castle…it was something that was obviously easier said then done.
For one thing, I can't exactly go into this blind. They all have their own set of skills, or something that makes touching them dangerous from Celestine's divine powers, to Olga's spell, and just to their general abilities as fighting.
I was good, and with this boy as my host I considered myself great, but I am not arrogant enough to assume that I can easily overpower them in straight combat. It would seem that I would need to catch them off guard if I want to get close to them.
My mind's eyes went back to Celestine. Oh how I would love to take her precious virginity…but I can't. She was far too well protected in her own right. If making her a slave was easy, I would've done it to Laurendeau long ago. No, Celestine should be the last girl that I touch.
Today is the day that I will gather information about the Seven Princess Knights and the Dark Elves of Garan. As much as I would love to take them right now, there are far too many factors making things difficult.
I found myself smirking at the thought of Volt. He had a similar goal to mine. He wants this kingdom for his own, and he also intends on enslaving the women of the empires as his own.
He was too generous. Simple common men don't deserve these women. They aren't simple whores one can buy off a street. They are meant to serve those who are destined to be rulers. And I intend on making them mine.
First things first though. I need a way to actually locate where the women's are. This damn place is so freaking huge, and I can't exactly locate nine women, no matter how important they are. Admittedly some are easier then others, and yet…Hold on a second, that could actually work!
The map that Claudia gave me yesterday. I might not be an expert on magic, but I do know a few spells that could help. Namely a spell that increases the duration of certain magic spells to limitless…
Taking the previously blank scroll, I pointed at it and cast a quick spell. The time limit is now gone. I can use this map whenever I desired. It told me the current locations of the Princess Knights were, while the two dark elves were in their chambers. Thanking my luck, I cast a quick spell, and the map blanked. No need to tell why it is still working.
Sadly, my magical knowledge has been a bit rusty. Thankfully, this place has a special laboratory for those with magical spells in mind. With it, I can gather the spell components for certain incantations…like certain brands of aphrodisiacs and the works.
'Ugh…'
Oh yeah…fun fact…this possession isn't actually full-scale. I have to allow my host to retain his bodies control for at least some times if I want to posses him whenever.
Thankfully, his mind always creates memories for what he was doing while I possessed him that resembles what I did…obviously something more legal.
Going by the schedules assigned to each soldiers, morning hours are to be used for training, studying, and just general duties as a knight. Easy enough for me to accept. Now let's go.
I hid the scroll back in the shelves, and jumped straight into the bed.
Naruto's POV
"Hmph?" I woke up with a frown. "What time is-? How the hell did I sleep through that loud-ass bell?"
Geez what a freaking weird dream. I think I must've drunk too much at that party, I can barely remember a thing since I found my ruby.
Looking down at said ring with a small smile. Well at least that is one aspect of my life that I managed to shut down. Now for the rest…I don't have anything planned do I? God is finishing a simple ring really the only goal I had left?
Sure there was conquering Eostia, but that was more of a general goal then something that I looked forward to…wait 'conquering' Eostia? I meant traveling Eostia. That was a weird choice of words.
Not to mention those weird dreams regarding the red light. Man, I must be really, really happy to have completed this goal. For god's sake, it is just a ring, and going by all that treasure, it on its own can't be that valuable…
In any case…damn it training time…but first: Breakfast!
I gotta tell you, once you've eaten Eostia's Castle cuisine, the rest just doesn't compare…well ramen is the obvious exception, but the rest still stands!
It was only later did I realize why the food was so delicious.
Because it was full of revitalizing energy.
Why was it full of revitalizing energy?
Because it allows the trainers to put us through hell!
"C'mon!" Ruu-Ruu insisted with a laugh. God how I wanted to knock it off of her. "It's just a run around the entire castle, what on earth is so bad about that?"
Other then the obvious fact on how big this damn place was?
I fully admit that I have high speed, and a shit-ton of stamina, but there is a freaking limit to how much work one can put a guy to before he starts crying. Because we also had to carry a heavy weight and strength is not my strong point.
"Go on without me…" Olav huffed as he collapsed.
"Okay!"
"I WAS BEING DRAMATIC!"
"No helpsies!" Ruu-Ruu shouted as she motivated Olav with fear of an axe. As one can imagine, he instantly revived himself.
It took a while, but we eventually managed to finish. It took so long, that we were actually done for the day since training ends at the sound of the afternoon bell.
DING! DONG!
Oh dear god, this is the first time a loud bell sounds like a choir of angels.
Ruu-Ruu was disappointed by the lack of sparring, but nevertheless, she took enough mercy to let us go on to our assigned duties for the days. Which essentially included looking up the job boards and taking missions, or helping around the castle.
If only it could stop the aching
OH DEAR GOD THAT MIDGET IS AWFUL! Dear god, everything about my body just aches so damn bad. I knew we were fighting a war with a very dangerous subject, but dear god they intend on feeling pain fast.
Oh there will be hell to pay Ruu-Ruu…
Okay, now that lunch is done, I can now take hold of this body until the next time the order calls for him. Let us begin.
Looking at the map, some of the girls are located back at their respective homes. However, the two Garan's will always be there. But considering I can't go to either without a reasonable excuse, I can cross those two off for now.
Nevertheless, I can see that Ansur is currently located at the bar. Looking forward to seeing Maia's ripe body, I made my way to the Eostia's Holy castle pub…wow that really does sound like sort of contradiction.
Pub
Sigh…how typical of this girl.
"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!" A chorus of voices chanted at a muscular man and a curvaceous woman.
Looks like Maia was up to her old tricks again. Let's just say that according to my host, Maia win many a drinking contests in her normal mercs day.
It was easy money for my host who made plenty of victorious bets over Maia's drinking ability.
"…AND DONE!" Maia cheered while smashing the cup down. The man next to her fainted over drinking that much alcohol, while Maia is still conscious, albeit a bit tipsy and red-faced. Some cheered, other groaned as gold pieces were exchanged.
"Drinking on the job Maia?" I questioned with an amused smile, after the unwanted spectators departed. According to my host, this was a very common sight in their olden days.
She merely shrugged at that observation. "Oh please. Today is an off day for me. Might as well take the time to kick back and have a drink."
"I think that was more of a dunk then a drink."
"Details, details."
While I knew I was charting into a dangerous territory, if I plan on making this woman belong to me, I have to cut straight to the point.
"I was hoping to discuss with you on a certain issue." My face was that of a serious nature, something Maia took as a sign to sober up. How exactly does this woman learn to do that?
"Lay it on me."
"It's about what you plan to do when fighting Volt." And just like that, the previous joyful mood plummeted.
"That's irrelevant." Maia retorted hastily. "We fight him, and we will win, and we punish him for his crimes."
"No it isn't Maia." I hissed. "I can tell you still care for him. It might hinder your judgment when dealing with him."
"Why do you care so much?!" Maia demanded. Isn't it obvious you foolish woman?
"It's just sad is all…" I commented with a disappointed frown. "That a woman as amazing as you is wasting her time on a horrible excuse for a man." Not like I'm any better, but she doesn't need to know that.
"He was your friend." She growled, and I can practically feel myself tensing up. But she wasn't stupid enough to do something drastic
"So are you, and he is now my enemy. It's the consequence of deciding to declare war and involve the lives of innocence." Those weren't my words by the way; they were in fact my host's feelings on the issue.
"This conversation is over!" Maia declared as she glared at me hatefully. Clearly that was the last straw.
"But I am still right." My face the mask of a concerned friend. This got a growl out of her as she stomped out of the room. Her lack of retort indicated that she really couldn't a way to argue against me.
Watching Maia's backside walking out the door is a nice treat, but sadly I may have made her a little mad with that comment about Volt.
The love and lust she felt for him, they still run long and deep. All these years and his actions have done nothing to change that.
My host's attraction to Maia was purely platonic, physical, and he respected her feelings for Volt, but not me.
This woman saved herself for a man who will be willing to use her as a reward. Not me though, I want her as my own, as Volt should've done when she admitted her feelings for him.
Now to find a perfect time, to find Maia at her most vulnerable. Then I will show her the consequences of keeping her body chaste for all these years for a man who will never show her the same affection.
Her body is perfection, one that I plan to take a hold of.
Spell Room
When returning to my room, I once again took a look at the map, and decide to find where the spell room was. I discovered it was bordering the library. I suppose that makes sense in its own right.
I was aptly pleased to discover the name 'Thorn' was also there. That may be due to my host's influence. Out of all the Princess Knight, he took a particular shine to Kaguya. Probably an effect of someone knowing his shared culture, as well as some of his personal taste as well.
I have to hurry up and catch her…but the research will be useful as well.
The spell room is about the size of a regular laboratory. The smells of potions were caused by the pitchers of chemicals and the cauldron boiling with materials. Various people were up and about brewing spells, casting spells, and researching tomes.
I can't quite see the foreigner, so I decided to take the time to gather my research material. Thankfully, there were books aplenty located here, and the ingredients were top notch.
Chuckling to myself as I gathered some of the raw materials (speaking of which, how did they get all these animals teeth? Some part of me is curious, while the rest would like to stay in blissful arrogance)
They even got basilisk venom! Then again, all you need is a rooster to beat those freaky things.
And there was the book I was looking for. Let's just say that while it doesn't advertise love-making, any body who reads it can still get the idea.
Really, the more I explore this place, the less holier it becomes. Do they just picked a copy of each book in the kingdom and place it here? Are they that unconcerned for what someone might pick up? Eh, it makes my job easier.
Making sure to hide the sex-spell book within the pages of more innocent spells I decided it was time to see where exactly the shrine maiden was.
And there she was, by the study desk, giving various scrolls in front of her a critical gaze. Probably researching some sort of spell.
"Kaguya." I nodded at the beautiful shrine maiden. I got a polite nod as a response as well. Her eyes gazed at the potion ingredients and spell books in my hand.
"I didn't know you cast magic." She commented.
"Not magic." I admitted, combining my own past with my hosts. "But I do know how to brew a few potions. As a mercenary I discovered my fair share of rare and strange ingredients, I took up potion brewing to find a use for them."
"Like?"
I smirked; maybe honesty was the best policy here. "Viagra."
"I don't know what that is." She commented. "And before you explained, that smile of yours tells me it is something that has to do with copulation."
"Smart girl." I noticed her charms and raised an eyebrow at the array of books and scrolls in her arms. "I thought your powers come from your god."
Kaguya shook her head. "Only my most powerful. The rest comes from the many years of research I have taken."
"Was what that like?"
"Years of studying, praying, and training in order to be the next lead shrine maiden." Kaguya answered. "When the original head died, I was chosen by our god to take her place."
"Wasn't it ever lonely?"
"I suppose it was in a sense." She noted. "But as long as I prayed for my god, I was fairly content."
"How did you even get picked for that job anyway?" This time I was showing honest curiosity. I don't know exactly which god she was referring too, and my wonder was fairly big.
"That's…that is something only those of my shrine know." She revealed. "And no man could ever be a member of our sect?"
"Why not?"
"Our god only accepts maiden's as his chosen one." She revealed, and she held up a finger to silence my retort. "And spare me any perverted commentary. Your former comrade Maia had made a few jokes at both mine and my god's expense."
Probably something about the god being a perverted figure. Well I can certainly empathize if that was the case.
While I was doing so, I caught a glimpse at the kanji written on her scrolls. I could make out…'Shield'
"Ward spells huh?" I noted, feeling that was the most likely solution.
"You're very observant." She commented neutrally. "But indeed. Every now and then, I uphold the shielding back at my home region."
"Isn't that a bit far from here?"
"I'm sure you are aware of the teleportation spells correct?"
Oh yeah. Created by Celestine and Kaguya, the spells can immediately transport any members of the Seven-Shield alliance to their respective homes, and back again. Only they and they alone knew the locations of the sigils and only they are capable of using them.
"I use these spells. And if Volt dares lay home on my village, he will get these shields as his answer."
"But what if Volt gets to you? What if he finds a way to get past all of that?" I finally decide to question, more to satisfy my own curiosity as opposed to any real worry. Of course if any man took this women's virginity before I do, there will be hell to pay.
She merely gave me a small smile at that. "I wouldn't worry too much about that Mr. Uzumaki."
"Huh?"
"You'll pray that you never see why. Just know that this charm on my lower body is the primary reason why I avoid worrying" I knew that thing covering her pussy wasn't just for show, but…
I may not be familiar with her god, but something tells me her faith in him is more then valid.
If what she says is indeed true, I can't just go up and rape her on the spot. I need to find a way to bypass the shield that her precious god bestowed upon her.
"By the way." She walked past me. "I have to stay chaste for the rest of my life. So please consider that. I wouldn't want to leave you astray" Oh she practically could feel my negative emotions at that comment.
Watching her perfect round ass as she departed from the area, it will be more then worth it to taste that body.
God damn it! Oh if only she knew it wasn't simple love and base lust.
You won't be chaste for long. I'll bypass that guard of yours…I just have to wait and see how….hell, I need to see exactly what it does in the first place.
You wore a stoic face most of your life Kaguya. Let me relieve you of that, and expose your own bitch nature.
It was then did I decide to head back to my room.
Church
Yes…these are some very interesting spells. Both for sexual and non-sexual usage. I especially love this little aphrodisiac potion. Course, it is obvious when it will take hold, so I might have to work on this to make it less obvious.
In any case, looking at the map, I can see one of the locations on the map had one of our lovely ladies here. It was the one representing the church.
There were plenty of religious sects located here. The most prominent was the center, but there was also a church for the common folks to use, which was prominently taken care of by nuns and clerics.
Right now, there was a name written there, 'Ur' signifying princess Prim Fiori.
Well let us see what our innocent little princess is currently up to right now.
The church was what one expects it to be. The children lined up for choir, the paintings of the gods of Eostia, the priests scattered about doing their duties (Hopefully, none of them have an eye for children), and the most pleasing, the sight of the nuns doing their business.
Admittedly, for someone like myself, I should stay away from a church. But also, there's no greater temptation then coming here. I remember nuns being especially fun to enslave given they been chaste most of their lives. It's like being deaf for most of your life, and hearing a siren as your first sound. Your senses just overload.
And these were very fine nuns. Their modest clothes still accentuated their curvaceous figures. They weren't at the level of the alliance, but they would certainly be a nice after-goal after I'm done with the Princess Knights.
And talking to a nun with short blonde hair was the princess herself. Ah Prim Fiori. A true contradiction of someone with a childish air and an adult body. She's the least capable of the princess knights, but her influence was enough to make her a valued member nonetheless.
"Ah Princess Fiori." I walked up and bowed. "I was unaware you were here."
Prim turned to me a smile. "Oh hello Mr. Uzumaki."
She turned to nun. "Mary this is Knight Uzumaki. Uzumaki, this is Sister Mary, the head priestess of this church."
The nun, Sister Mary, gave me a polite bow. "It is a pleasure to meet a knight of Eostia. May Lady Laurendeau look over all of us."
You know, despite fully covering her skin, her clothes really don't hide that figures of her. Wait, did she say something? Oh right, typical blessing stuff.
I scratched my head. How do I respond to this again? Oh yeah. "Why thank you. Might I inquire why the princess is here?"
"I'm afraid that's a private matter…"
"No it's fine." Prim insisted. "I'm here to learn some magic. The nuns of the church have plenty of mystic powers, and I was currently studying it."
"So you're learning magic?" That was certainly an interesting thing of note. Then again, Prim has only her connection to her name as a contribution to the alliance; it makes sense that she is doing something else for the army.
"So what type of spells do you specialize in?"
"Primarily light magic."
"So what? Do you blind your enemies with rays? Or do you vaporize them completely with a harsh light…" I should've stopped talking, given the horrified looks the two women were currently giving me.
"Not that type of magic!" Prim shrieked in fear. She then bowed her head. "I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled."
My eyes were wide at the unexpected outburst. "That is alright Princess Fiori that comment of mine may have been out of line."
Mary shook her head. "I can't fault you for thinking like that. Most soldiers immediately think of ways to use magic to win wars. Light magic is for purely healing and only that. This is something the princess wishes to specialize in."
I smirked at that. The innocent all-loving princess being a white mage? Some things just make way too much sense. "That sounds useful. At least I know who to go to after a bad day on the job."
Prim flushed at that. "I-I'm sorry, but I'm still just a novice."
Mary smiled. "Oh don't be so undermining. You easily understood what directions were given to you. You managed to master all of the basics in just one day."
"Now c'mon Princess." Another nun came up, this one with short dark hair and glasses. "It is time for our lessons."
"Thank you for listening Mr. Uzumaki." Prim nodded, giving me a generous view of her already blatant cleavage. "But I must be on my way."
"Thank you for your time."
I examined Prim Fiori's body as she left for her lessons. Her body truly was too erotic for her personality. Innocent face, innocent mindset, and most of all, a perfectly innocent dream.
Ms. Fiori, you won't be just learning light magic in the near future, but you will also be learning sexual healing…
For some reason, I have this melody stuck in my head. Where does it even come from? It's not like any music I recognized.
Concert Room
While I was walking back to my home, already making plans on how to enslave Prim, something catches my ears. It took me a few lessons to realize it was music. Groaning to myself as I probably still had that strange melody stuck to my head…until I realized it was occurring externally.
I heard the music intensely. I admit, I was never a music aficionado…but this melody, it speaks to my very core. It was something that immediately caught my ears as I headed towards where I was hearing it.
The music room…in retrospect that should've been obvious. Every once in a while, primarily on holidays, an orchestra plays a show for the sake of Eostia, and it is one of the countries biggest event. My hosts was always busy during those days, but he heard they were a lot of fun.
My eyes peeked into the creak of the door to see that it was in one of the private lessons section. I caught a glimpse of blonde hair, and slowly started to open the door.
I saw that woman. Princess Alicia Arcturus holding a violin to her neck. Her eyes the face of clear tranquility as beautiful music plays through that strings.
She wasn't wearing her poor excuse of armor. She was in fact wearing a similar dress to Prim, except blue where the other was pink. But her focus was completely on the violin she was conquering.
My eyes stood transfixed on her. Her features were always lovely, but they were stuck in a scowl most of the time. But her face then. For a single instant, I forgot about my ambitions, and just wanted to focus on the sheer content of her face and her masterful melody.
Of course her features turned unhappy when she opened her eyes and caught a glance at me. And just like that the beautiful music ended.
Her eyes narrowed at me. "You there!"
"Yes princess Arcturus?" I hastily made my way over and bowed. This girl didn't exactly take a shine to my host, and eavesdropping on her private conversation might not bolster her opinion either.
"Why were you here? And more importantly why were you spying" Her suspicions made quite blatant.
Might as well be half-way honest "Oh, I heard there was a music room for all those interested, and when I came her I heard some very beautiful music."
Alicia gave me an appraising gaze, but she decided the story was decent enough. "Well I suppose you should consider yourself lucky. Not many get a chance to hear my play"
"I do. You were quite skilled. What song was it?"
"I don't know actually." Alicia admitted. "Apparently it was from the land of Thorn, originating from a foreign continent."
That explains that. My host's appeal to Thorn culture made that song appeal to me as well.
"Admittedly, I never had much chance to play before…" She sighed, giving the instruments before her a wishful glance.
"…Due to war?"
"Unfortunately." She sighed. "It really upset me."
She gave a long glance at all the instruments surrounding the area. "I always loved playing music. And I was always good at it. From pianos to the trumpets. I was skilled."
"All of them?"
"Yes all of them. With a few hours of practice I could play any of them" She smirked proudly at that. "I played for myself, my parents…"
"And Princess Fiori?"
Her eyes sharpened. "How do you know?"
"It seemed kinda obvious."
She sighed at the truth of that statement. "I suppose so. Our relationship is rather well-documented…"
"Relationship? You mean you…!"
"YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!"
"You and Fiori are a lot like sister." I snickered. I'm sorry but this girl's rage was cute as opposed to fearsome.
She sighed at that. "Me and her practically grew up with one another. We may be cousins but…"
"You're quite close."
"Indeed…" She frowned. "Why am I doing this? Telling a stranger so much about myself?"
"I think we were just making conversation to be honest." I commented without thinking. "It happened all the time when I was part of Kuroinu." Oh that wasn't an ideal thing to say.
"You were a former member of that group weren't you?"
"I was."
"Let me make one thing clear." She growled. "Maia was quite helpful towards you, and your skills can't be denied."
"But if you side with Volt even for a moment, I won't hesitate for a second to cut you down."
"I understand." I nodded. I never wanted to side with Volt. As if I would let a mere human take away my slaves for himself.
She nodded. "Good. Now I wish to practice some more, and I don't like an audience with me…"
I got the message, and made my way towards the door, but not before giving her one last look.
I caught her playing a woodwind instrument. I believe it was called a clarinet.
Seeing her blow the clarinet, I can't help but think of another thing I wanted her to blow.
Once I enslave her and Prim, a threesome is the most immediate thing to do.
DING DONG!
Damn! It must be night time. And all soldiers unless given permission must return to their barracks for duties.
Looks like I have to let my host take control again.
Naruto's POV
That was an interesting day. From exploring the new rooms and meeting the other Princess Knights…that doesn't happen often does it?
In any case, after an awesome dinner, we made our rounds and ended with some sleep…
Note to self, see if I can use those spell books to create a good prank. I just need to find the right victim first though…
Same old void…sane old light…once again asking me some questions.
"Do you like woman?" The red light asks.
Was that a trick question? "Yeah I like girls. I am straight you know…"
"Yes that would be good…"
"So?"
"How would you feel with multiple women pleasuring you?"
"Dude, that's practically every straight/bi man's dream."
"Do you think it could happen?"
"Eh, it ain't likely."
"Let me fix that."
"Huh?"
"You'll see."
DING! DONG!
And there was our daily wake-up call! If we have to fight any sound based monster like a siren, at least we will be prepared.
At that dream…I'm starting to think it's the representations of all my hormones. Why else would it explicitly mention banging a bunch of girls?
God those princess knights…they're putting my hormones into overdrive damn it!
Times like this requires either a long shower or shaking the wand solo…the former is less time consuming and more dignified.
So after cleaning up, I went down for our daily training instruction.
"Oh hey Maia." I noted as I walked past the redhead.
"Hmph." Was her dignified response, as she didn't even turn to look at me.
…I guess she's still a bit peeved. Hell, I'm surprised I had it in me to say those things. Guess this war was getting to me more then I thought…
Ah well, here we are, and thankfully this time we avoided some extreme regiments.
We did some of the holy knight's basic drills. They weren't easy, but it was a downright blessing compared to what happened last time.
Ms. Levantine, a perfectly sane human being, actually realized what type of training that we are capable of.
And at the end, this time around, we took a partner and sparred.
And I won. He wasn't bad, just relied too much on power and not enough on speed. Winning was child's play.
"Excellent job Uzumaki." Claudia stated with a beautiful smile. "It was easy to see why your generals choose you as a candidate."
I grinned at that. "I know. I am pretty awesome if I do say so myself."
"And so humble as well."
"It's never been my strong suit." I bluntly admitted.
She rolled her eyes in amusement, and by the end of the session, she told me and some of other well-done soldiers some potential jobs.
This bounty seems appealing to me, and it did paid well. That much could get me a lot of materials…
"I'll take this bounty."
"You sure?"
"Of course."
"But before you do, I have an assignment for you." She noted.
"Huh?"
"Well…let's just say someone is interested in you Mr. Uzumaki." And the teasing smile did not fill me with confidence.
And in walked a certain midget carrying both a giant axe and a huge shit-eating grin.
Oh someone save me…
"Hello there blondie! Remember me?"
"You mean when you attacked me with your axe."
"Yup! I'm on the hunt for some beasts, and you seemed speedy enough to help out." She declared with a huge grin. "And you were available…"
At least one of us was enjoying this.
"Maybe we can even put in a spar afterwards." Ruu-Ruu excitedly noted, twirling her giant axe.
I instantly mouthed 'Spare me' to my hopefully 'as helpful as she was beautiful' superior.
Claudia smiled and said. "That sounds like a wonderful idea!" And I can practically feel her amusement.
'Son of a-! Oh wait…Daughter of a-!"
"C'mon!"
Grunting to myself as the monstrous midget dragged me off with her equally monstrous strength.
Seriously, where does all that strength come from anyway?
Outskirts
Some time to spend with one of the Princess Knight's in private? That was too good an opportunity to pass up.
"YAH!"
If only it wasn't the most rambunctious one…
It didn't help that with every jump, she pretty much exposed everything about her body.
I'm sorry, I don't consider myself that overly attracted to pubescent girls, but her practical nudity is not doing any favors for me.
"Why are you looking so much?" Ruu-Ruu demanded with a huff when I stared for far too long.
"Quit wearing something like that, and maybe that be a little easier." I sardonically commented.
"It's my armor!"
"Covering your crotch with metal plating doesn't constitute as armor!"
"Is too! I would've done something similar for Claudia, but she insisted on a few more piece of metal!" If was in her shoes, I would've put more metal everywhere.
"Of course! Even her shame has limits." Hold on a second, what did she just say?
"Honestly, why do humans complain so much about my armor?" Ruu-Ruu complained while puffing her cheeks. "Don't they know they are designed by the half-lings themselves? And they are designed with the maximum efficiency!"
"Wait! You designed the armor?" I questioned. Sure the armor was very easy on the eye, but even with enchantments, it didn't scream practicality. Unless they wanted to manipulate men into not attacking. That's one way to do it I suppose.
"Don't you know?" Ruu-Ruu growled. "With less metal, you can be faster! Why do you think I wear this anyway?"
Mainly from a lack of shame mostly.
Of course, Half-lings don't really wear that much clothing. In fact, they literally wear underwear made out of leaves, and a small cloak.
If they didn't look like younger girls, then something tells me that they would have to deal with a lot of human attention.
Heck, they still received a lot of attention anyway. Nudity is stimulating I suppose.
In any case, we were using her nose to located some sort of wolf-demon, and her scent led us here.
"Hmph." My ears were opened.
"Growl…" I could hear the monsters moan.
Finally! And given the direction, I saw a rustling bush from where the sound originated. This was too easy.
Walk quietly…
Make sure they don't know you're there…
Almost got it…Ha!
…
…
…
You know, there are some things can expect in life. This…just wasn't one of them. It wasn't the strangest, but it definitely was unexpected.
I saw two wolf demons…er…let's just say they were doing the doggy-style and leave the rest to one's imagination.
Er…well this was awkward. Seeing two animals actually getting it on…I was familiar with concept of monsters breeding with humans, but seeing monsters breed with one another is rather…
It doesn't disgust me as much as I expected it to. But I take solace from the fact that I am not even remotely aroused by it.
And I was disturbed that was the first thought that popped up into my head. God there is something wrong with me.
"What are they-OH!" Ruu-Ruu flushed at the scene before her.
"Yeah." I deadpanned. "It's pretty…graphic if I do say so myself. Hypnotic in a weird way too…"
"Ugh…" the half-ling moaned.
"Okay, I get that it's gross, let's just move on and…Ruu-Ruu?"
I immediately notice something amiss. Ruu-Ruu wasn't reacting to it with disgust, but rather: her face was flushed, her legs were shivering, and drool was starting to appear from her mouth.
In short, this entire scene was actually arousing her…What?
"Wait, does this turn you on?" I know all half-lings have animalistic traits stored within them, but to be aroused by the mating of beasts? Okay I guess they have an excuse, but it is still pretty strange.
Ruu-Ruu flushed. "Shut up!"
"I've seen weirder, but nevertheless…"
"I said shut up!"
And that was the end of that conversation. We were able to locate the wolf-beast with little trouble. And the half-ling left with a huff.
Yes…Ruu-Ruu may have the appearance of a younger girl, but that is a strange charm in itself. Course there was the liking of animals, but I am willing to dismiss it as part of her animal nature.
Heck, I wouldn't mind screwing her like a beast.
Speaking of which, I have a bounty to collect.
Bounty Office
Due to my search with Ruu-Ruu, I was able to locate the criminals hiding in the forest. They weren't particularly strong, so defeating them wasn't a chore.
The bounty office was an extension of the prison. It is pretty self-explanatory. People come here, and in exchange for catching criminals they get cash.
As I bought them to the bounty office, who else could I meet then Chloe herself?
Chloe raised an eyebrow at the humans I have captured. "Impressive collection...at least for a human"
"I was a former mercenary." I deadpanned at her blatant racism. "Finding and defeating these two amateurs is child's play."
"Yes…" Her eyes narrowed at me. "An old acquaintance of Volt."
I raised my hand in surrender. "I assure you…me and Volt's shared history has nothing on my loyalty. I fight for the sake of Eostia and for the sake of myself. I wouldn't betray anyone for Volt."
She nodded, feeling that she lacks any retort at the moment, but nevertheless is still suspicious.
I saw something very interesting when she turned around, apparently her hair covers it up, but the way it shifted allowed me to get a look.
"Nice markings." I commented with a frown.
That half-elf instinctively brought her hands to her neck, and her ebony skin actually paled a little.
"Slavery must've been tough huh?"
"Explain! How did you know?!"
Yes Chloe used to be a slave if I recalled from research. Her former owner wasn't foolish enough to demand for her, especially not to the Seven-Shield alliance, and especially not to Olga Discordia.
"I did my research actually." I commented while doing the paperwork. "John Mandeville. Slavery of Dark Elves is illegal now, but you can't prosecute him due to it being viable at the time."
She gritted her teeth. Oh how she would've loved to kill that man. But the only thing she could do was escape from him. And doing anything now would end up causing people to prosecute her queen. She couldn't let that happen.
"Are you done?"
"I am."
"Good." She took the papers, and grabbed the ropes of the chained men. Without much care, she stomped off back to her position as the jailer.
Oh she will be a difficult one. Far too much hatred for my host's kind. But she has already showcased her greatest weakness. One is her hatred for her former owner, and one is her unhealthy loyalty to Olga Discordia
Oh Chloe, you won't escape the chains of slavery for long. It will come back to you: the collar chained around your pretty little neck..
And I will be holding that leash.
Graveyard
The whole trip took up a good chunk of the day, so it was already night time when I dropped off my pay.
Looking at the map, I caught a very interesting name located at one area. The one that says Garan-1, or in other words, Olga Discordia.
A graveyard. This was one of the few parts of Eostia's castle that serves as a nice reminder that we are at war. For many years, the people buried their dead in their respective regions, this place is for those who lacked a home, or considered this castle as their home.
And standing there in front of a grave was none other then the dark form of Olga Discordia, giving the tombstone before her a critical gaze.
I slowly walked up to her, before she interrupted me.
"What are you doing here human?" And she didn't even turn around. Damn I hate people who can do that. It makes sneaking up on them so much harder.
"Queen Discordia." I bowed in respect, if she can sense my presence, she can probably sense what I'm doing. "I was merely exploring the castle out of curiosity. Today my travels have brought me to this place."
She turned around at that. Once again, I can not help but admire her ample figure and godly beauty. Perfection doesn't exist, but she was close to it. The clothing that left little to the imagination made that easy enough.
I could've made my efforts to stare a little more subtle though.
"Your eyes betray your lust humans." She deadpanned at my ogling. "I suggest you stop…for the sake of your health."
Might as well be blunt. "You are a very beautiful woman my queen." I answered honestly. "Any man would be willing to lay with you, regardless of what you have done in the past."
Her eyes narrowed at that. "What I have done was completely justified. It was the fault of you human's for enslaving the members of my race."
'That didn't stop you from dealing with slave dealers yourself.' I deadpanned in my head. "I don't wish to argue with you. Things have happened, but now both the people of Eostia and Garan are united against a common foe."
Olga gave me an appraising glance. "Is that so? If I recall correctly, you and this common foe used to be friends."
"That's true."
"Well why didn't you join Volt?" And it was clear that she was expecting an answer. "Why didn't you join him? Based on your lustful gaze, you would've loved a kingdom of service."
"Many reasons, besides basic decency." I answered. "I prefer things a little more consensual thank you very much."
She gave me a long steady glare. "Well either you're a good liar or you're telling the truth."
'Both.' Except that consent comes after plenty of training, and enslavement.
"So why are you here? If you don't mind me asking."
"Spell components." She bluntly answered. "You'll find that dark magic has a lot of ingredients that could be traced back to where those who sleep forever lay."
"…Is this allowed?"
"Celestine and I have compromised." She bluntly declared. And the glint in her eyes made it clear that was all I was getting.
"But you seem to have an interest in this tombstone. Any reason why?"
"…No reason…"
In subtle-speak, oh yes there was.
I couldn't read it, it was written in a dead language. Going to have to do research to satisfy my curiosity.
"Know one thing human." Her eyes glowing brightly. "If you are indeed a traitor, know that no matter what, I will slay you."
I instinctively gulped. "Of course."
Too bad about her cloak, since it probably covered her mostly bare backside from the rest of the viewing world.
Feeling my cock turn rock-hard, I found myself growling. I wanted revenge on Laurendeau, but Olga…she is Celestine's only equal in her beauty. For that she must be mine.
But she will be a difficult one. Not just because of her power, but of her general distrust towards me and my host's origin.
When I went to sleep that night, I started to dream of my conquest. A favorite come up with both Olga and Celestine licking my cock and looking at me with utter devotion. That is one of my wish.
Naruto's POV
No dreams tonight, guess that is a bit of a relief. So it's time for training, but before I could start my drills, something popped up.
I'm getting called up to Ms. Levantine…wander what this is about…I didn't even pulled any of my trademark pranks yet.
Battle-Grounds
"Ms. Levantine." I nodded toward the holy knight. While Celestine and Olga were older, she was the only one here who looked it. Nevertheless, that only bolstered her appeal as a woman. Especially for that poor excuse of armor.
I scanned around the room. So this was her own personal office. Since she's the leader of the holy knights, I suppose its fair she gets one.
"Is this another errand?"
"In a sense." She admitted. "My father-in-law intends on visiting soon for personal reasons, and I need some help preparing for him."
"You don't get along?" That seems typical for humans.
"Not at all." She smiled. "He was the man who adopted and raised me for most of my life. I essentially became his daughter when me and Klaus were married."
"Klaus? Isn't he the famous scholar who…I'm sorry for your loss." Not really. But it sure beats the trouble of worrying about him if he was still alive.
"It's alright." She nodded. "The grief is still there, but I can get over it."
"How did your old man take it?"
"Better then I did."
"Really? His own son?"
"Father and Klaus had a few disagreements…" Claudia closed her eyes, and then she shook her head. "That is currently irrelevant." A smile came back to her face. "So can you please accommodate me?"
As I walked through the room, my eyes caught what was undoubtedly a wedding photo. There was Claudia clad in a beautiful white dress that flattered her already charming figure, and a man clad in a suit.
"Is that him?" Pointing at the elderly man with her. "Your father-in-law?"
"No that's Klaus."
"…Are you sure he didn't die from old age?" Because seriously, this guy was said to be about Claudia's age.
I can forgive the grey hair, but the features and figure did not do him any favors!
Claudia winced at that. "Yes…Klaus did age rather fast. But I assure you, his disease was not the result of aging."
Sheesh, no wonder no kids came out of this marriage. He already became sterile by the time he married her.
"That is my father-in-law." Pointing at another photo.
This was undoubtedly Grave Levantine. And he was definitely a contender for buff grandpa.
Klaus's dad looks healthier then him…how is that possible? Moving on before I confuse myself...
"I want to be clear that this isn't an order."
"It isn't."
"Well I am feeling particularly helpful." Anything to get any bits of information out of this holy knight. Due to her abilities, taking her right there and now won't be easy. The only way I can do so is to catch her off guard.
She had a husband right? But exactly what was the circumstances surrounding his death, and more importantly, why exactly did she get wistful whenever she mentions her adopted family.
Finding the answers may be the answer to obtaining her soul.
In any case, running these errands won't give me that much information, I'll let my other take control again so he can catch any particular notable scenes.
Naruto's POV
Don't know why I agreed to run errands for Ms. Levantine…it was the boobs wasn't it? How could I resist with those suckers straight in my face.
What she wanted was pretty basics. From a special bracelet, to a certain type of cake...It seems easy enough, and the stores at the castle were quite popular given they have a little of something from each region.
So while I gathered everything up, I walked past a certain building. A place where no town can be complete without, the orphanage. I could make out somebody standing in front of all the kids there.
And my eyes widened at the sight of the person at the orphanage.
"Lucullus?"
Orphanage
Okay! I have to take control here; no way was I going to miss out on the chance for some one-on-one with Lucullus. She's either at Geofu, or in a private area that would raise too many questions if I locate her there. Finding her at an orphanage of all places was surprising, but I'm not complaining.
But first, here's some background on the orphanages of Eostia.
As far as countries go, being an orphan in Eostia isn't actually all that bad. The kids are fed healthy meals, they have enough things to entertain themselves whenever they get bored, and there were plenty of adoptions.
Any kid who wasn't ends up joining the army, becoming part of a religious sect, or became a mercenary…etc.
But that was irrelevant, considering my surprise at the person standing there.
"Lucullus?!" I exclaimed in surprise. I knew that she was nearby in the area, the map told me that much; I just didn't expect to find this holy woman here.
The beautiful woman gave me a dazzling smile and a nod. "Hello, Mr. Uzumaki. I understand your current confusion."
She turned to the kids. "Run along children, I'll be there with you shortly."
There were choruses of assents as the children left. She turned to me and nodded at me, helping me out.
"Don't tell me." Immediately thinking of the most charitable thing one can do. "You're here to serve as a visitor for all the orphans."
She chuckled lightly. "That is correct. I make my way here whenever the mood struck me. The children always do enjoy my visits."
Hmph…so she comes here randomly huh? Mentally taking a note of that piece of information, I asked her. "So the great goddess of Eostia comes here every now and then? How noble of you."
"I am not a goddess." Celestine insisted. "I am merely someone who blessed to carry her soul. If I was truly a goddess, we wouldn't live in fear."
"Huh?"
"The time of war is near." She noted with a sigh. "I may be a goddess's reincarnation, but know that Laurendeau's power never pertained to fighting, and destruction. Her spells were harmless."
'This being told to the guy who had his mind shattered by her.' I deadpanned in my hand. Technically speaking, what happened to me didn't exactly hurt per se, but being imprisoned and scattered for many centuries doesn't exactly do wonders for the mind.
There was certain that tickles my curiosity. "How did you figure out you used to be Laurendeau?"
Celestine continued as an answer, "When I was born, I was a rare specimen I admit, but there have been other elves. However, when I experienced puberty, did I discover I was Laurendeau's reincarnation."
"How exactly do your powers work?" I questioned. I know Laurendeau only ever waved her hand to activate her power, but that didn't tell me how she does it. And why did it take until puberty to do so.
She gave me a mysterious smile. "I understand if you're curious, but that is something I keep to myself and myself alone. Not even the other Princess Knights know of the origin of my healing powers."
That power of hers…the more my mind focused on it, the more my curiosity seems to grow.
Maybe…just maybe that power can be used against her. I know of a powerful reversal spell, but that only works if I knew the origin of the magic. Until I figured it out, I can't manipulate her.
"If I had all my former self's powers, I would've healed the minds of those twisted by their lust." She sighed. "But sadly, my powers could only heal the body, but it is never enough to heal the mind."
I closed my mouth at that to avoid a comment on how Laurendeau never bothered me. True, I fully intended on corrupting her, but at that moment I think I'll let her have some reprieve.
"Don't you have somewhere to be?" She finally asked.
…Oh yeah. Better let my host take control again. First have to get out of here with all this heavy stuff…
Naruto's POV
Where was I…Oh crap I have to finish this mission. I really got distracted by Ms. Lucullus!
…Did I once again meet every members of the alliance again? Man my luck rocks! Then again, that is why I'm so lucky at the casinos…
Too bad I get kicked out a lot...sigh...
Now to find that cake…
I'll probably be picking random names for some of the characters. Like picking religious names for the nuns and the works or English name for the knights from the holy knights.
The visual novel didn't give me as much info as I would like, so some things were made up on the spot. Like Alicia being a music prodigy or that Prim is practicing healing spells.
Other comments, okay am I the only one baffled by how old Claudia's husband look? Seriously, sources say they are relatively the same age…unless Claudia is older then she looks. But even then Klaus looks way too old.
As for how often this will update...I don't know, college is taking up a lot of my time. I'll try to be periodic, but I can't guarantee anything. Please read and review.
