Chapter 136

A few hours passed and I finally put on my clothing. “Ahem… Miki is probably panicking right now!”

Lydia blushed, quickly dressing too. “S-sorry, I was selfish and took too much of Master’s time.”

“I think when you guys reach the fifteenth level, I’ll have to teleport up and give Miki a reward for her time.”

Lydia nodded. “She will definitely pull pranks on me after she finds out.”

“Ah… we could say a monster attacked or something.”

Lydia shook her head sadly. “She’ll smell Master on me. She’ll know the second she returns.”

“Ah… it seems I did something thoughtlessly.”

I was repenting. Pervert was a very dangerous ability. I lost complete control. On the one hand, I was able to keep up with the tigress for most of it, on the other, I felt a bit like a pervert. It seriously emboldened me and I even did things to her I normally wouldn’t.

“M-master… during… it… did I do something bad?” Lydia asked nervously.

“N-no, not at all!” I defended.

Lydia nodded. “Ah… it’s just… Master kept spanking me.”

“I’m sorry!” I immediately lowered my head, repenting instantly. “That was just… I won’t do it again.”

“N-no!” Lydia protested. “Actually… I… I liked it. I learned during training that men might hit during sex… I just didn’t expect it to feel so… good.”

“Hah… I need to go.”

When she said things like that and looked shy, it was more effective for me than when she was openly horny. Even without pervert, I was thinking of pushing her down again.

“Master?” Lydia asked, cocking her head.

“What is it?”

“Once you reach level 19 and us 15, wouldn’t it be possible to switch with your switch position ability, and then teleport back. That way, you could bring us all with you. In fact, shouldn’t we have just done that to get to level 15 from 9?”

“…”

“Master?”

“Well… we didn’t do that because… um…” Why didn’t I just do that? “Ah… training… that’s right, the monsters are tough, and I want you both to level until you’re strong enough. You’re only level 30. I admit I’m only 20, but also have the support of many jobs, some high tier, and also some dungeon point skills, so I’m more capable.”

Lydia nodded and smiled, and I let out a breath that she bought it. If she knew the reason was simply that I hadn’t thought of it, she definitely would look down on me. Well, I wasn’t wrong about feeling they should level. Admittedly, they might be able to level faster if they joined me, the levels after 15 were dangerous and I wasn’t certain I could keep them safe while helping them level. There was also one major reason I wasn’t eager to bring them down with me. That was Celeste.

She was a bit fragile, and I was a little worried she’d react negatively to more guests in her Mansion. I wanted to meet with her first and give her time to adjust to the idea before I introduced her to the other two girls. I remembered how violently she had reacted the first time I had shocked her. She had nearly killed me. She was technically my slave now, but if I used an order she didn’t follow and hurt her… well, I didn’t want the other girls to see that. Simply put, I wanted to mediate the situation.

With those thoughts, I finally returned to my camp. There, written on some parchment, was the slopping writing of Miki. She had left me stuff to read. I smiled and equipped my scribe skill. I still didn’t have enough experience with reading to pick up the language skill without scribe set. Working my way through the note, I smiled.

Dear Master, I am so happy to be your slave. You have done so much for me. You are the greatest.

The first part was full of praise and compliments. She clearly was being very affectionate, and her love was being transmitted through her note. However, new parts were written. Each time a little messier, more frantic, and more heavily pressed on the page.

We haven’t switched back yet. What’s going on? Is Master all right? I’m so worried!

There were even a few tears on the page. I really had worried her. This made me feel bad. Then, I reached the bottom. The page had numerous rips and it looked like it had been crumpled up at some point.

You’re fucking her, aren’t you! I hate you! You send me into a dark dungeon, and then you have sex with her! I’ll never forgive you! Master is the worst! Master is-

My brow furrowed as the note grew more and more violent until even I had trouble reading it. Then it suddenly stopped. I was sweating just looking at the message full of angst. I seriously messed up. It was then that I noticed a single line on the back of the note. I turned it over and read.

I’m sorry I peed on your bedroll.

Wait, what? I looked over to see the bedroll did indeed have a giant wet stain on it! What was she doing? How did she being angry over another woman lead to her peeing on my bed! Is this the so-called marking her territory?

I sighed. Somehow, I felt like I deserved this. After washing the bedroll, I left it hanging to dry and then slept on the cold, hard, rocky ground. I would definitely make it up to Miki later.
