“So, Salicia is totally going to try to convince you to join Deedee…” I explained to Garnet.
“Eh? How do you know?”
“Because, that’s what I would do, and if Deedee is anything like me, then you’d be her target.”
“Why would I be her target?” Garnet asked.
“Is it because Master secretly likes lolis after all?” Miki asked, smirking.
“S-so… it’s true… Master likes little girls.” Elaya sighed.
“Master… if you wanted me so much, you just had to ask.” Garnet looked up at me with pink cheeks.
“It’s not! You’re a blacksmith! Chalm’s biggest weakness to date is the lack of someone skilled in making armor and weapons. Don’t forget we have a warehouse full of orichalcum that has just been gathering dust!”
“Shouldn’t this side be making use of it?” Lydia asked worriedly. “It wouldn’t be too difficult to take it if we wanted.”
“No, we’re not recruiting and training people. We’re getting help from foreign sources. Those sources already have their own weapons and armor. I’m not going to hand other nobles our orichalcum armor or something like that. It’s our own underequipped forces that would be advantaged the most by Garnet’s help.”
“Then, I won’t go or help!”
“You will!”
“Eh?”
“You’re going to agree to go with Salicia. You’ll go to Chalm, and you’ll do blacksmithing for Deedee… except, you’ll be working for me!”
“Ah! Really? I mean… even if I’m a spy… Deedee probably won’t trust me enough to explain any of her plans.”
“That won’t be a problem. Although it’d be nice if you could glean a few of her plans, I’ve been told that she isn’t much of a planner anyway. She just makes things up as she goes along. Therefore, I’ve already won!”
“Y-you have?”
“Mm, a good plan accounts for any variability. In this case, when you make armor for her army, I’m going to have you infuse it with my own karmic control.”
“You don’t mean…”
I nodded. “That’s right. She’ll be creating an army that I can disarm with the snap of my finger. That’s why I’m not worried about her army getting orichalcum weapons from you. You just need to make her fangs, and then I’ll choose the time to defang them.”
“That will really work?” Lydia asked.
“It will. So, just leave it to me.”
“Then, where are we going today?” Miki asked.
“You’re going to stay here. I’ll be bringing Elaya, Faeyna, Carmine, and Astria for my next mission.”
“Hmm? Why them?” Lydia asked.
“Ah… it’s just, they’re the best equipped for my next mission.” I scratched my cheek.
“What do they have that I don’t have?” Miki demanded, however, then her eyes slowly fell to their chests. “Hey… wait a minute!”
“Are we going to the church?” Carmine brightened.
“That’s right. I’m going to see Mary. With the Demon Lord Aberis involved, I’m hoping that she’ll be willing to offer more aid.”
“You’re going to see Mary?” Garnet blinked. “I’d like to go!”
I knew that Garnet and Mary had some kind of relationship and Mary asked me to rescue her, and I intended to use that to get her help, but her body didn’t meet the type. If I was going to flatter and ask for their permission, it wasn’t just Mary whom I needed to impress.
“You need to stay here so that Salicia can proposition you.” I came up with such an excuse.
“Why does that make me feel scummy?” Garnet cried.
“Isn’t he just bringing big-chested girls to try to smooth things out with the big-titted church?”
“Why is my chest not big enough?” Lydia demanded.
“Just accept it, Master wants women with appropriately sized assets.” Elaya shoved her chest into the conversation.
“Exactly! Master needs us!” Faeyna’s chest pushed in from the other side, nearly burying me.
“If you don’t like it, how about you join Deedee, she doesn’t like her women with chests bigger than her.”
“Is that true?” Lydia’s face went white.
“Huh? I thought everyone knew?” Elaya responded thoughtfully.
“So, that’s why you’re sending me away.” Garnet grew tearful, “That’s another aspect of your personality. I must go to the flat-chested Deek where I belong like Bernice… no wonder you took Elaya and Astria…”
“It all makes so much sense!” Miki cried. “I guess I’m fated to leave as well.”
“What! No! That’s not true!” I cried out. “I like all tits! None of you are leaving! Stop it!”
It took some time to convince all the girls that I liked their boobs. This day was getting off to a bad start.
