Book 7: Chapter 142: Magic Sword ~ 50
The sun has already set, and the prairie leading from the valley of Horwood to the direction of Ares is filled with the sound of a woman's unbearable moaning.
It has been more than half an hour since the battle ended, and Sheryl's screams have not ceased since then.
The meadow has been partially transformed into a circle with a radius of exactly half a mile by the effects of a Forbidden Art, a reversal magic circle used by the Academy of Wise and the head of the Holy Sword Clan as a trump card. The surrounding area is a golden grassland at the beginning of autumn, full of life force, but in this circular space, the grass and trees have withered, and even the soil has lost its magic power and become dry sand.
Outside this dead space stands a large tree. This tree is the child of the World Tree, so to speak, which Leia made appear by putting magic power into the seed of the World Tree. Inside the tree, four of Satoru's magical slaves are resting.
Minerva and Rico had already finished their dinner, but Satoru, who has been raping a patrol woman at the Academy of Wise named Sheryl, and Liz, who had pleaded with Satoru to watch Sheryl's having sex, of course, had not eaten.
About a quarter of a mile (337 meters) away, a torch was held aloft, and a man and a woman could be seen, albeit dimly, overlapping each other.
Sheryl, who has been under Satoru's constant assault for perhaps half an hour, is in good company. Even though Satoru is certainly doing his best to control his Lust otherwise, he would have gone crazy.
Leia, Rico, and Minerva, who was watching the scene, were approached by a voice from the side of the tree.
Excuse me
The three of them looked down together. There was the dignified figure of Isolde, the former head of the Holy Sword Clan, who had just been defeated by Satoru, surrendered, and become a magical slave.
Oh, you're back. Come here for now.
She bows her head and comes this way with light steps. Leia ordered Solor to serve dinner for Isolde, while she asked Isolde, who looked at her, what she had to confirm first.
Did you manage to persuade them?
Isolde nodded her head in confusion.
Ah, yes. There were four of them left alive. I told them that they were not to say anything about the situation and that if they did, the entire city of Ares would be destroyed.
The four survivors were a lecturer who had helped form the reversal magic circle, two secretaries of the High Mentor, and Sheryl's subordinate, Derek. Isolde managed to find them in the midst of the chaos and successfully persuaded them.
Aside from Satoru's heinous power, the death of the High Mentor and the scent of the Holy Sword Clan behind Satoru seemed to have convinced them, at least to a point.
However, Isolde did not explain the details of the High Mentor's death. She could not tell them that his own son had killed him. She has kept that part of the story to his honor.
...... Is that all?
Isolde cowered at Leia's probing gaze. She has no intention of hiding anything from her, who is Satoru's first magical slave.
...... I am no match for him. Derek, a man who used to work for Sheryl-dono at the Academy of the Wise, I have been asked him to help her.
After Isolde finished convincing everyone, she called Derek separately, explained the situation to him, and asked him personally to help Sheryl.
Sheryl would now work as Satoru's slave. Her job is to monitor. If Satoru's power is properly displayed, there will be no reckless people who will try to subdue him, but there may be some people who will try to take advantage of his tremendous power. It is very difficult to find a maggot who tries to contact Satoru without realizing that contact with Satoru could lead to the destruction of Ares. It is better to have many hands.
In this aspect, Derek's ability is assured. He had been working with Zelphys, a member of the Holy Sword Clan, and Zelphys seemed to recognize Derek's insight, and his reports before the operation against Satoru were thoroughly analyzed objectively and calmly. Isolde had also appreciated him.
Derek accepted Isolde's request after much deliberation. Isolde was relieved, not a little.
However, Isolde's actions were arbitrary. Depending on the situation, she could have been punished, but Leia, with a snicker, agreed with Isolde's decision. It also matches with what he had asked her to do in secret.
Well, that's at least good enough for us. For now, let's make sure everyone gets to meet each other. And have a meal, too.
Thank you very much.
Everyone has their own reasons for becoming the Lord's magical slaves. We need to talk a little about that as well.
Leia gave her a brief history of their journey so far.
Satoru was summoned from another world by Leia's hand.
Leia had tried to get Satoru to sign a Slavery contract with him, but the contract's master and servant were switched, perhaps due to a rebellion from the enormous amount of soul.
He has a sister in the original world and wants to return home.
He has set out on a journey to find Yarth, the Immortal King, Leia's mentor who is likely to know the art of repatriation.
That he had a chance encounter with Minerva soon after his departure.
That he met Rico in the town of Galhassan, where they stopped. Leia also explains how he came to take her in.
How Minerva was able to take on human form through mimicry. Leia also tells Isolde that Minerva is traveling with him in making a child with Satoru and that she is pregnant right now.
Isolde, who had been listening in silence, was indeed surprised by this fact.
Satoru had a chance encounter with Sheryl in the city of Ares.
At that time, he had told Sheryl not to interfere.
He had obtained information about the labyrinth, and first of all, he had completed the Labyrinth of No Return.
Solor, who had been sleeping at the bottom of the labyrinth, became Satoru's servant by chance.
While wandering around the forest near the Dark Green Forest to challenge the Labyrinth of the World Tree, another powerful labyrinth, he met Reine and Liz.
Under Liz's guidance, he went to the Labyrinth of the World Tree deep in the Dark Green Forest, but Yarth was not there, however, at the request of the village of elves, he has exterminated the Ingolsheness, the demon race of the labyrinth, on the condition that Reine, and Liz, who had been banished, return and that discrimination against them be eliminated.
Isolde was listening to this with a sour face, but Leia guesses she was going to stick to listening for now. She did not interject.
That is when Isolde realized that the Academy of the WIse was apparently messing with Satoru.
And then there was the incident at Reine's house.
Satoru's outburst, his rape of Liz to save her from death, Reine's death, becoming someone who's raping Liz, and the serious injuries to his friends the impact of these events caused Satoru to temporarily lose consciousness.
He regained consciousness when Liz called out to him, and he headed toward us with Liz and Solor as his magical slaves...
The rest is a fact that Isolde knows. Satoru fought against Baron Dantes' army and fought against Isolde while trapped in a reversed magic circle. That's all there is to it.
Hearing all this, Isolde sighed a long, thin sigh.
In fact, during Satoru's travels, until his direct encounter with Sheryl, neither the Holy Sword Clan nor the Academy of Wise had received any information about Satoru. At best, he caused a commotion in the Thieves guild of Galhassan in connection with Rico. It is probably because of Satoru's restraint that a person who can cause enough damage to create a crater with a simple outburst of magic power has been able to travel around without getting his tail caught. It is easy to understand that he has no desire to reign over this world.
The pure magic power that Satoru unleashed, that was really pure magic power leaking outward all at once. If the same amount of magic power were to be used as sorcery in the form of an explosion, for example, the power would be expected to be 100 times greater. 30,000 miles If the earth were to be gouged out by such a force, even this divine earth would not be safe.
Thinking about it, it is regrettable that Graham Coogan, the former Supreme Imam of the Academy of the Sages, went out of control. Without him, Satoru would have been able to continue his journey. The death of Liz's mother, Reine, the adventurers caught up in Satoru's outburst, their leader's father and the army of about 500 that Raymond's father had sent out to take revenge, and the two who had followed the High Mentor in adoration of him. The seven members of the Holy Sword Clan did not die. No crater would have occurred, and no barren land would have been created by the reversed magic circle.
As it turned out, High Mentor died. He was killed by his mad son.
The granddaughter is now being raped for all these crimes, but there would have been no such misfortune if only Graham Coogan had handled the situation calmly.
It was decided that Isolde's information would not be revealed until after Satoru joined the group, and Isolde looked out from the corner of her eye as she ate her fine stew and black bread somewhat absently.
...... Are they still doing it?
Yes,......
Rico replied gravely. The energy of Satoru, who has been raping women for half an hour, is also extraordinary, but Sheryl, who has been raped for half an hour, has also maintained her energy well. But from Rico's point of view, she doesn't care about Sheryl but is more concerned about Satoru's heart.
Sheryl-dono's heart is also ...... in need of being punished, but she's not.
Isolde had guessed that Sheryl had no experience with men, but for her to ask him to be violently raped was far beyond Isolde's imagination.
Sheryl's moaning voice no longer sounds like a human being. Her consciousness must have been very dim. Neither Sheryl, who is being raped, nor Satoru, who is doing the raping, are human beings at allSuddenly, Isolde realizes something.
Ah, ......Uhm, Leia Lwenstadt-dono
When she is addressed by her full name, Leia makes a small, itchy face.
Leia is fine. What's the matter?
Ah, you see ......,d-do I have to open my body up to Lord like that ......too?
Isolde's question brought a wonderfully subtle look to Leia's face. The main component of Isolde's expression was frightened.
No? Not necessarily.
To an overtly relieved Isolde, Leia adds a preamble, "But."
But only if the Lord wishes it. As a magical slaves, it is only natural for us to respond to our Lord's wishes. You know that much, don't you?
Isolde gave a small grunt. It was obvious from her reaction. Isolde probably has no experience with men. Leia grinned.
U-Umu. The way of life as a magical slave, right? I-I know, but ......
What is it? Are you scared now? Sloppy(?).[TLN: ]
Wha!
Isolde's color changed at Leia's mockery as if she were making fun of her outright. Leia tells Isolde as if she is proud of her victory.
I'm going to tell you something, including that woman who is being raped right now. I'm sure all of the magical slaves have been with the Lord at least once, you know?
Isolde's face turned pale. Leia laughed in her mind, "She's a busy guy, turning red and pale."
Wha,wha,wha,wha........Not only Minerva-dono who want to have a child, but also Le-Leia-dono, and the half-elf girl who's watching over there now!?
I would have talked about rape too, Leia thought to herself.
Oh, that's right. For some reason, my Life Force Absorption doesn't work on my Lord. In case you're wondering, I, Minerva, and Rico are doing it with our butt too.
Whaa!? B-b-b-butt, butt you say!?
Isolde screams out loud as she squeezes her butt. Leia guesses it would be correct to say that she was too surprised, but even so...
Or rather, shut up a little, will you?
She is too loud. Isolde was shocked and depressed by Leia's rebuke. Rico sees this and smiles wryly. Leia looks back outside, somewhat seriously.
.......Are you going to interrupt that Sheryl or whatever she's called for what may possibly be the last time she has any memories?(?)
Isolde gasped quietly at the sound of Leia's voice.
Sheryl must have recognized that when she accepted Satoru's order to monitor Ares, it was her last chance. That is why she wanted to have intercourse with Satoru she wanted him to imprint on her in many ways.
Satoru is simply responding to Sheryl's wishes. It may be a little out of the ordinary, but she understands the subtleties.
I understand the subtleties. I understand, but.
B-b-b-but ......Umumumu
You're a very serious guy. Well, perhaps it is inconceivable to you who have spent all your life in training.
The Holy Sword Clan has an unusual origin, but even Leia can imagine that Isolde has spent most of her life in training. If not for that, she would never have mastered the swordsmanship that is said to enable her to compete with the knightly orders of a single country. There is no room for love affairs, and Isolde, the head of the clan, has lived in such a world and is, in a sense, a pure child. Sex is probably out of the question.
Leia turned her gaze to the frenzied intercourse still going on.
.........
Now Satoru has Sheryl lying on a bed made of stone, and Satoru himself is standing, engaging in intense intercourse from the side position.
Leia can say with certainty that Satoru is not accusing her to the point of losing herself. If Satoru had fucked her to the point of losing himself, Sheryl would have gone crazy long ago, and it would have affected Liz, who was watching so closely. But there is no sign of that.
In other words, Satoru is, in a sense, cold-bloodedly and yet beastly in his fucking. Considering Satoru's current situation, where he has been rewritten to be more greedy than when he was in the original world in terms of sexuality, it must be quite a test of his mental strength.
Suddenly, someone's sobbing voice reached Leia's ears.
......What's wrong Minerva?
It was Minerva who was crying. She was spilling tears profusely while keeping her eyes fixed on Satoru. Minerva noticed something was wrong, and without looking at Rico, who was trying to comfort her, she answered in a pained tone.
Y-you see. Danna-sama is crying.
What?
Somehow, Minerva knows it. She can feel it. Danna-sama, he's thinking that it's really painful. He's crying in his heart. He says sorry to so many people.
Minerva's murmur also made Leia's heartache. Minerva could subconsciously read the emotion in the words, and she must have sensed it in Satoru's voice, which could be heard from time to time.
Is that, so....
Leia mutters this with a heavy heart.
Satoru is somehow gentle and sweet. He should not have had any desire to rape Sheryl, let alone to have intercourse with her. Even when she thinks about her past sexual encounters with Satoru, they are not non-existent, but they are very few and far between. She had a fantasy of having sex with Satoru, of having a heart-to-heart connection with each other.
The persistent rape play that seemed to ignore this. Satoru probably cries tears of blood in his heart and apologizes not only to Sheryl but also to her dead father and grandfather.
How should she deal with Satoru, who has broken his heart even more?Leia thinks about it. What needs to be done first is...
Listen to me, Minerva. Do not tell the Lord that you feel that way, okay?
Eh ...... W-Why?
Because if you tell Him, my Lord will probably be hurt very badly. You don't want to hurt him, do you?
Minerva nodded.
If Satoru knew that he was raping women with tears of blood in his heart and that his magical slaves knew about it there is a high possibility that Satoru would be more concerned about the magical slaves and would hurt his hearts even more. No, or rather, it would certainly happen.
It would be impossible to ask Minerva to be subtle about such things, even if Satoru himself had a faint sense of it. If that is the case, it would be better not to mention it from the beginning.
Sometimes it is better to keep quiet. ...... For now, rest yourselves. Your magic power has been reduced by the reversal of the magic circle, hasn't it? Leave the rest to me and Solor.
Honestly, Leia and Solor both have a commensurate decrease in magic power, but they are still better than Minerva and Rico because of the difference in their base values. Isolde is in a special position as the former head of the Holy Sword Clan, but she is still just a human being. And even though her legs were cracked and her arms were healed with Regenerative Healing, they still had some flaws.
It is not clear why Minerva was affected by the reversal magic circle earlier than Liz, but the fact that her abdomen was glowing faintly at the moment she was trapped in the circle suggests that she may have taken on the role of her child as well.
Rico pulls back Minerva's still-quivering hand and leads her to rest. Isolde was leaning against the wall and trying to fall asleep. She is a swordsman by profession and has probably trained herself to be able to sleep in positions that are a little too difficult for her.
(Is he crying in his heart? ......)
While watching the show from afar, Leia ruminated over Minerva's words in her mind.
Satoru does not match his appearance, but his nature is kind-hearted. He wants to return to his original world because his sister has nowhere else to turn. Satoru's sister never knew her parents because her mother died when she was born and her father died seven days later. Satoru, as her only living relative, was unable to raise his sister on his own, so he left her in an orphanage or something and only saw her occasionally.
In other words, after the death of his parents, Satoru's life was almost entirely allocated to his sister. He would have to have a strong sense of responsibility and be kind to devote himself to his sister, even though she is his immediate family.
But that kindness is a double-edged sword. It is made possible by hurting oneself and enduring the pain. The heart that was suppressed for the sake of his sister may have become twisted inside Satoru.
The reason why he is now violating Sheryl is not only because Sheryl wanted to, but also because Liz wanted to see it he is enduring it for the sake of their desire. But Minerva has seen through his unspoken heart.
The reason he is violently raping against Sheryl and shedding tears of blood inwardly is probably because of his guilt toward Sheryl and her surroundings. That is, in a sense, inevitable.
Leia's fear is that Satoru's violent sex was actually an inner desire. Satoru may not have had a strong desire to rape, but he had a strong desire for control. In fact, some aspects of Satoru would start to do things that resembled training.
However, this was only in the context of the play, and Satoru, who was so violent, seemed to be different even from Leia.
It would be poison to put up with too much, considering Satoru's heart.
For Satoru, nighttime activities are a time of peace. However, the feeling of happiness that comes with peace of mind can alleviate some of the stress, but it is not enough to dissipate it.
There is a violent aspect to relieve stress. Taking it out on others is the most obvious form.
However, Satoru cannot do this with all his might. The thing that is being hit will be broken.
This is the evil of having a soul that is too strong.
(It's difficult. ......)
Leia blurted out a small voice in her mind. The act that is being committed against Sheryl right now is not leading to the release of stress. Because Satoru feels too much consideration and guilt towards Sheryl.
On the other hand, if she could accept Satoru's full power, she would not be able to do it herself. If that is the case, then...
Solor. I need to talk to you...
Leia tells Solor about her fears.
Solor also revealed that deep down inside her body, there was a part of her that wanted to be roughed up, and she promised to become the very doll for Satoru.
And there was one more person who was listening to this Isolde.
