Chapter 12
"Welcome to the [Silkworm tribe] village. First allow me to thank you for saving my daughter, she is very precious to me and my tribe."
The lady who speaking is Emmanate Whiteland, Fianher-san's mother.
She wore a white, elegant, long dress down to the floor, with flowers and leaves decoration on her sleeves, chest and hair. Her white, long hair tie down her back, a small, crystal moth-like shape only add more gorgeous to her already beautiful features.
If she didn't introduce herself as Fianher-san's mother, I would view her as Fianher-san's sister.
The [Silkworm tribe] people seem have a slow-aging or ageless ability, I haven't seen a old one in this village.
"It's just what I need to do, Whiteland-san."
"Please tell me your name, noble one."
"I am Lord Issei Hyoudou Gremory, this is Akeno Himejima Gremory, my mistress, the last one is my friend, Victoria Heresy. And it's my pleasure to meet you, Lady Whiteland."
Turning her head toward the guards, Whiteland-san says:
"Leave us alone."
After the guards left, Fianher-san immediately hugs her mother.
"Mom, I'm back! I missed you so much."
"Fianher! Don't you see Lord Gremory still here!?"
"It's okay Whiteland-san. I don't mind a single thing about family affection."
It's good to have a family you know! After watching a hundred, if not thousand, anime, movie, my conclusion is tragedy, sadness always starts with somebody without a family. Therefore, treat your family well before you start regreting!
"Please call me Emmanate, Lord Gremory. I know you may have to return, but please stay here tonight and have dinner with us."
"I will do as you said, Lady Emmanate, oh, and please call me Issei."
"Call me Akeno, Lady Emmanate."
With that said, Emmanate-san calls the servants to prepare dinner for us. We will eat in the guest room together with Fianher-san and Emmanate-san.
After a half-hour, the food is brought on the table.
Dinner at the [Silkworm tribe] village is... not what I expected.
I thought they would offer us with "high-class" leaves, turn out they eat rice, wild vegetables, pretty much what a vegetarian would eat.
They don't use chop sticks, but spoons, knives and forks, all is made from some strange metal material, they're not steel I'm sure, but this kind of material doesn't exist in our world either.
While trying some salad with crispy potato chips fried in... Um... This is not normal oil, but olive oil, and a piece of pepper, salt, I saw some raw mulberry leaves, I guess the fact that they're the silkworm have explained this.
The mulberry leaves are not that bad taste, actually I enjoyed them a bit.
"Lord Issei, did the food suit your taste? We don't have human food here, it's our best to offer you right now."
"Don't worry mother. Lord Issei is not a human, he's a dragon!"
"Don't joke like that, Fianher. I don't know if she insulted you, Lord Issei. Hence let me apologize for my daughter's silly words."
"No, what she said is true. I'm a dragon, Emmanate-san."
To prove my heritage further, I use my tail to sweep around the floor.
"You... you're really a dragon? But I thought dragon became extinct in the last war. Lord Issei, we [Silkworm tribe] was once plan to allied with the dragon. But before our envoy brought the message, the war had begun.
Our ancestors had discovered that by bathing in dragon sweat, we can make stronger, better silk from our body.
Would you agree to accept what we attempt to do hundred years ago?"
Really? This kind of things do exist?
Well, it's not sex or anything like that so I will go with it.
"I accept your request, would tomorrow okay, Emmanate-san?"
"Is... isn't that a little too soon, Lord Issei? But this is what you want, I can't refuse."
Eh? Why did she blushed?
"Lord Issei!? You... you promised me!"
"Yes, I promise you that if you got into a arrange, loveless marriage, I will help you out of that."
"But... But... Arg! I will go sleep now!"
Seriously, what have just happen?
"Ara, then we'll execute ourselves, too. Have a good night, Lady Emmanate."
"Oh, eh. Thanks. The room has been prepared, the guards will take you there."
Strange, Emmanate-san acted different after I accepted her request. What has just go wrong with me?
"You're still worry about Emmanate-san, Ise-kun?"
"Yeah I guess. I mean, tomorrow I will just do some heavy action, sweat a lot then process to profit, right? I even think about allied with them."
"Ufufufu, heavy action you said? Tell me Ise-kun, do you notice something different about this village?"
"Huh? I think it's their culture and food?"
"Ara ara, said the future [Harem King]. But I think I will stop it here, 'cause tonight you belong to me, Ise-kun."
"Yes, definitely Akeno-chan."
"Um, Lord Issei?"
"What is it Victoria-san?"
"Do I have to, um, accompany you in bed?"
"What!? No, of course not. I will tell the guards to prepare another room for you."
Arrive at the bed room, Akeno-chan pushes me on the bed, with her body on me.
"Now it's time, Ise-kun."
I don't even have time to take off my shirt.
Morning.
The sun shines through the window wake me up, with Akeno-chan's soft, warm body on me.
Last night was so hot. Although I know Akeno-chan was a virgin, she still outclass what I have learn.
Well, It was just Rias-chan and Asia-chan, but that's my precious experience!
"Good morning, darling."
Akeno-chan greets me with her violet eyes, her long, silky hair fell down on her back, make her look no different from beauties step out from myth and legend.
The [Blessing] mark on her body only add more to her gorgeous. I don't know if I have a thing for tattoo girl, maybe it's my dragon heritage make it attractive?
"Chu."
Huh?
"You seem dazed, so I need to wake you up one more time with a kiss."
"Eh... Thank you, Akeno-chan."
I kiss her back, with more force. Soon, the drape covered in our love juice. I will take it back with me, it's Akeno-chan first time after all.
/Knock Knock Knock/
"Who is it?"
"Lord Gremory, please get up, Lady Whiteland wished to see you."
"I'll be there."
"Ara, too bad we don't have more time, ne Ise-kun?"
"I will make you faint once we get back, Akeno-chan, along with Rias-chan."
"Ufufufu, your guts grow so fast. I love it."
Wasting no more times, we follow the guards to see Emmanate-san. On the way Victoria-san came with us.
"Lord Issei, you have any ideals why Lady Whiteland want to see us?"
"It's urgent I think. 'cause no way she would wake us so soon for a trivial thing."
Step through the door to Emmanate-san's private room, she orders the guard to leave us.
"Lord Issei, I'm sorry for waking you in this such time. But my daughter was kidnapped!"
"What!?"
"I don't know when, but please help me. The only clue I know is that she disappear when-"
"Lady Whiteland! The [Tsuchigumo clan] soldiers are coming!"
"Call the troops! We are going to see them, in arms!"
The guard runs out after nodded to Emmanate-san's command.
"Lord Issei, I'm sorry for this, but I have more important thing to do now. We will talk later."
With that said, Emmanate-san walks out of her room, leave us alone with a puzzle feeling.
"So, what we're gonna do?"
"I think we should hear them out first Ise-kun. Tsuchigumo is spider youkai right? They produce silk, like the Silkworm, rivalry between them is understandable."
"Madam Akeno is right Lord Issei. The [Tsuchigumo clan] village is also very famous for their silk, but they sell their products to the merchants, mercenaries more if I remember correctly."
"I see. Let's go outside and have a look."
As we appear at the village gate, there is already an argue between the [Silkworm tribe] and the [Tsuchigumo clan] I guess.
"Release our Lady Fumiko! Or we will burn your every houses down!"
"That's our words fiends!"
Lead the [Tsuchigumo clan] is a lady with jet black hair down to her knees, she wears a shell like armor cover her chest and shoulders, leave her pearl white belly expose. A black pants with spikes and blood red eyes make her more ferocious.
"Harumika Kurosora."
"Emmanate Whiteland."
So that is the [Tsuchigumo clan] leader name. Quite suit her features.
With the armor and spear in hand, Emmanate-san faces the [Tsuchigumo clan] leader.
"We were friend, yet this time you just burn all the bridges, Emma."
"Said the one who bring this up, Haru."
"You went too far, Emma. What had happened, I can forget all. But, not my daughter!"
"Forget!? You!? I am the one who have the right to say it! And where is my daughter, Haru!?"
Look like there's a misunderstand here.
"Hm, didn't your people are the ones who take her!?"
"Lair! Your people are the ones who kidnapped my daughter!"
[Dragon Presence]!
I release my dragon aura, intend to stop their quarrel. If they're continue like this, the war between them happening is just a matter of time.
Soon, the people who were around me stand on their knees.
"What is this? You... What are you...?"
"Lord Issei?"
Clear my throat, I step up to both leader.
"Listen to me, I heard a part of your story, look like both your daughter was kidnapped, right? I think there is something not right here.
So, would you mind let me investigate this case for you?"
"Your aura... You are a dragon! I'm sorry, I didn't know it."
"Lord Issei, please forgive me. I was too angry to think clearly."
[Bilingual]!
"Harumika Kurosora-san's oppai and Emmanate-san's oppai! Tell me your master's words is true or false?"
"She's honest, Noble Dragon-sama/Lord Issei."
I see.
"Alright, now you two will return to your room. If this afternoon I have not solved this case, you can continue to do what you want."
Look like dragon still has high authority of this world. If I think and use it carefully, surely I can do many things useful for ourselves and this world.
"What are you planning, darling?"
"Um, think about it. There is 3 possibilities in this case:
First, Emmanate-san lied.
Second, Kurosora-san lied.
Third, somebody else did this.
I have used [Bilingual] on both the leaders to check them, and their words were honest."
"Um, Lord Issei, what is [Bilingual]?"
"Eh? Ah that... I will tell you later."
"Ufufufu, Victoria-san, do you like the feeling when Lord Issei "attacked" you?"
"Huh? That was... [Bilingual]? But it was just... um... I-I understand."
Nah, Akeno-chan sure like to tease others. But this problem need a solution, and my time is running out.
Noon.
"Why should they kidnap both leaders' daughter?"
We have tried to look at both the village, from Fianher-san's room and Kurosora daughter's room, but no clear evidence could tell us probably what have happened.
Right now we're sitting under one of the tall tree at the outskirt not far from the [Silkworm tribe] village.
"I think they want to create a war, then they will use that chance to attack both village."
"You're right, Victoria-san. Silk is a high-class produces, right? If you have a big supply of that, wealthy in a short time is not unbelievable. So what we need to do now is find the one who was watching both the villages."
Even though it was our only conclusion, we still haven't found out the third party.
Fianher-san said that the only way to access the village is to follow their people, right? So maybe someone have followed them. But when? And why didn't they know somebody follow them?
"Ise-kun, I asked one of the guards about what had happened in the past between Kurosora-san and Emmanate-san."
"Please tell me Akeno-chan."
"They loved the same man. Also this man was the father of Fianher-san and Kurosora-san's daughter. But in the end, the man left them, Emmanate-san and Kurosora-san's friendship ended that time. They still think that because of the other the man left."
"I see... Hm... I got it!"
"What is it Lord Issei?"
"To get to the village, you must go through the forest, right? And our [Draglings] were take care of the cart last night, Fianher-san was still with us till midnight, so the [Draglings] must have seen something.
I will call them now."
After a while, a group of 3 [Draglings] runs up to my place.
"Did you see something suspicious last night?"
One of the [Draglings] nods while the others draw something on the ground. Too bad their claws were not used for that purpose.
[They are your [Minions], right? Why don't you try touch their head and focus to access to their memory? Maybe it will work.]
Oh, thanks for the advice, Ddraig.
I have told what had happened to me. He was very happy when he heard that "I'm learning to behalf like a dragon and a lord."
Did my natural pervert bother he that much?
Extending my hand and putting it on the [Dragling], I try to look through its memory.
Hm, I can hear someone talking, but the image is quite blur.
"Hurry! Or they will notice us!"
"Don't worry, those stupid bitches wouldn't know a thing, right my daughters?"
!
Just a short memory, but now I know the culprit.
"Damn that bastard!"
"Lord Issei?"
"I have the information now. The kidnapper was Fianher-san and Kurosora-san's daughter father! We might know more of their hiding, the [Dragling] knew which way he went last night."
"You're done well, Ise-kun."
"Thanks, but we must hurry now."
That man! He dared to kidnap his own daughters!? That's unforgivable!
Fianher-san is a nice girl. A young girl who still on the road of happy and joyful life.
I won't let that scum do what he want.
