Chapter 200. Former Hero ā Enjoying his time
As usual, I was the first to wake up.
Last night was the first night of our honeymoon trip so we enjoyed ourselves to our heartās content with all nine of us.
The weekās worth of passion I endured from Mungu to Amman transcended reason.
ā¦what am I talking about this early in the morning?
I quietly got off the bed so as not to wake everyone up.
Mina prepared the beds for us last night, where she ended up bringing three from another room, making a total of four beds connected together.
Since each bed was originally fairly large, it was possible for everyone to sleep, but it was still a bit cramped for 10 people.
Thanks to thatā¦ or should I say, even on the special harem-sized bed prepared by Aria, Tanya fell off the bed as usual. And then thereās Laurier.
I think Laurier was sleeping next to me last night, how did she climb over everyone and fall?
How did it start sounding like a horror mystery?
I put Laurier and Tanya lying on the floor in the empty space of the bed.
Then, from a distance, I looked up from the top of the bed.
After traveling for a week, they were hanging out with me until quite late at night, so there was no sign of anyone waking up. Everyone was sleeping peacefully.
And most of them were completely naked.
Several were still wearing underwear, although itās in a sorry state, and their skin tone was overwhelming.
I am convinced that there is no spectacle that surpasses this anywhere in the world.
If this was to be surpassedā¦ Etna-san, then Shia and Chiyu-san would have to join them.
I felt my lower part react, seeing this first thing in the morning.
Well, I mean, itās morning. A totally normal physiological phenomenon. It canāt be helped.
I donāt think my dirty mind has anything to do with morning wood.
Ah, of course. Anyway, itās a honeymoon trip.
Iād be lying if I didnāt want any memorIes.
I rummaged through my luggage in order to carry out my ideas.
I took out my smartphone and pointed it at everyone sleeping on the bedā¦
I was immersed in joy as I checked the images Iāve taken.
ā¦Letās take some more pictures.
I took pictures from various angles, looking for those perfect angles.
Itās a shame these pictures canāt be printed.
I once deleted all the data I saved from Earth so I donāt have to worry about the capacity so far. But I shot a lot of videos. What should I do when itās full somedayā¦?
Can Celes invent a machine that stores data separately?
And so, while worrying about the moment that will surely come someday, I couldnāt stop shooting.
Aura woke up due to the noise of the repeated shutter sound effect.
I shouldāve downloaded the silent camera app!
I was able to take quite a few shots, and Iām quite satisfied with them.
Aura said while rubbing her eyes.
[Ah, good morningā¦nnhn.]
I slowly approached Aura and hugged her while kissing her.
I canāt say specifically whatās going on, but anyway, kissing her heals me.
Is it because it feels good to be sought after?
As I was doing this, everyone else began to wake up like a mysterious chain reaction.
I guess itās inevitable given that I was making so much ruckus next to them?
In the order they wake up, I go around kissing them as a wake-up greeting.
I have the urge to spend the whole day in this room, but can that be considered a honeymoon?
Being able to control their base instincts with reason is what makes humans human.
The still sleepy-eyed Tanya pouted.
Reason surrendered to instinct. Iām too weak.
It started with Tanya, then the demanding Laurier, then Rithina, Aura, Kagura-sanā¦ And, in the end, after kissing everyone around one more time, this time I really suppressed my instincts with reason and decided to take a bath in the morning with everyone.
After soaking in the public bath with everyone, we had breakfast and talked about our plans for the day.
[Today, letās all go sightseeing first.]
I had no particular objection to Rithinaās suggestion.
Everyone else seemed to be in for it too.
[So, starting tomorrow, Haruto-kun will have a one-day date with each one of us.]
Everyone nodded at Rithinaās next suggestion.
Thus, itās decided that way.
Iām fine with everyone, but Iām also looking forward to individual dates.
After a rough discussion, we decided to go sightseeing together.
āāāāāāāāāā
We took a quick look around the town until after noon, then returned to the mansion.
[It felt more like a resort area than I thought.]
While remembering the scenery of the city that I saw, I expressed my impressions.
With well-maintained roads, a number of buildings with plenty of room on the land, and well-balanced greenery, the streets seemed really comfortable to live in.
[Did you find any places that you were interested in?]
While I was relaxing on a chair in the courtyard of the mansion, Celes started talking to me happily.
[Hmmā¦ Thatās rightā¦ There was a person dancing in the central plaza, wasnāt there? I was curious about the costume that person was wearing.]
Thatās what Iām interested in.
[Ah, that costume? Iām pretty sure thatās the traditional costume of this area.]
[Eh, that is a traditional costume?]
Celes, who probably didnāt seem to notice why I was interested in that costume, began to explain.
[Thatās right. If I remember correctly, itās a traditional costume that has been passed down since ancient times and itās said that people wore it during festivals and danced to pray to the Gods.]
The dancerās costume I saw earlier in the center of the square was pretty much a bikini with the cloth area adorned with sparkling decorations, and she was dancing with a long cloth wrapped around her waist like a pareo.
Itās not in the cosplay lineup Iāve made so far.
I definitely want to make it.
ā¦no, wait, can I just buy the real thing here?
Hey, what do you call that thing?
I think there were similar costumes on Earthā¦ Arabian? Oriental?
Yeah, something like that.
Thinking back, I feel that there are many designs like that in the streets of this city.
No, Iāve never been to such a country on Earth in the first place and I donāt know exactly what kind of country it resemblesā¦ well, itās just my image.
[To be honest, I was surprised that onii-san showed interest in folklore.]
Iām starting to feel sorry for Celes, who was looking at me with glittery eyes, unaware of my true intention with the costume.
[Haruto, Haruto! Look at that]
While I was wondering how to correct Celesā misunderstanding, I heard Laurierās voice along with the thumping footsteps.
When I turned to face the voice, Laurier was wearing the traditional costume we were just talking about.
[Whatās wrong with you? Thatāsā¦]
[It was in a room full of clothes.]
Is it alright to wear it without permission just like that?
Not to mention, how is it possible that it actually fits Laurierās size?
Iām feeling sorry for them.
[I got permission, so itās okay.]
Following Laurier, Rithina arrived.
I felt my groin getting excited when I saw Rithina.
Like Laurier, Rithina was also wearing the traditional costume.
Although the design is different, itās hard to believe that sheās wearing the same clothes as Laurier. Especially the chest area.
After saying that, Rithina spun around on the spot.
The decorations shook and the attached jewel or something reflected the light and sparkled.
And her breasts also swayed around.
No, it shook or rather, it bounced. Indeed.
I sucked my breath too deeply it seemed.
[I, itās a little embarrassing if you stare at me so closely like that.]
In my line of sight, Rithina hugged herself with her arms, as if trying to hide her body.
However, far from being hidden at all, the compressed chest became more emphasized.
I really want to take pictures!
[Hey, Haruto. Look this way.]
While my eyes were seemingly bolted to Rithina, Laurier, now wearing a crown, held my neck tightly.
The decorative part of Laurierās clothes stuck into the nape of my neck.
However, on the other hand, a modest yet soft feeling spreads around the back of my head.
So, this is candy and a whip!
[Ah, sorry, sorry. Laurier looks good too. Real cute.]
Laurier, who didnāt believe in my words, strengthened her arms even more.
It hurts yet it feels good!
Itās true that I said those words in a hurry, but it was true that sheās cute.
Rithina and Laurier each have their own charms.
[No, really. I think youāre really cute.]
Instead of tapping on her arms, I pat Laurierās butt instead.
Perhaps satisfied, Laurier let go of my head.
Phewā¦ itās a good thing, but itās a shame.
[Ow owā¦but seriously, you two look good. Can I have a hug?]
[Fufuā¦thank you. Of course you can.]
With permission, I stand up from my chair and hug the two of them.
The decoration part hurts a little, but the comfort more than makes up for it.
By all means, dress like thisā¦guhehe.
[Onii-san, is that whyā¦]
It seemed that Celes had guessed why I was interested. If you look at the exchange just now, I guess anyone could tell?
[Umā¦ Celes-san, this isā¦]
[No, I guess I misunderstood. Onii-san is always like that after all.]
It doesnāt seem like you were disappointedā¦ No, are you disappointed?
Letās put that aside, how would you like to be convinced?
[How about trying it on, Celes-san?]
Rithina made a suggestion after reading the slightly ambivalent atmosphere.
Celes glances at me while saying so.
[Celes should try it on too.]
I smiled, not intendingĀ to urge Celes or anything.
[A, alright. If Onii-san said soā¦]
Celes might have expected it, or maybe she was convincedā¦ Hearing my words, she bowed her head, nodded, and fidgeted.
[Then, since itās a chance, letās call everyone and letās all wear it.]
Seeing that, Rithina made another suggestion.
I see. Were there many sizes?
If everyone wears itā¦ it will be a spectacular sight.
[Laurier-san, could you call out to everyone for a minute?]
At Rithinaās request, Laurier entered the mansion.
[Then, Celes-san, come here.]
Next, Rithina went into the mansion with Celes in tow.
[Well, Haruto-kun. Please wait a moment.]
At the end, Rithina turned around and said so while winking.
The destructive power of that wink was amazing.
It reached deep into my heart for sure.
After this, everyone will come in that traditional costume, huh?
I made up my mind and entered the mansion.
I have to bring my smartphone and take pictures!
Since when did I feel such a sense of mission?
I quickly found the smartphone I had just used in the morning, and returned to the courtyard and waited nervously for everyone.
Around 10 minutes laterā¦
I heard a voice calling me from behind.
I didnāt dare to look at the direction of the mansion, just looking at the scenery, so I turned around in the direction of the voice.
Everyone dressed in folk costumes like those worn by Rithina and Laurie earlier gathered in a row.
A feast for the eyes. Wonderful.
Celes asked while fidgeting.
Perhaps itās unique to elves, Celesās white skin mesh pretty well with her decorated outfit.
[Itās really cute. It suits you well. The costume suits everyone in a good way. Cute.]
I wonāt repeat the foolishness from before, and this time I will properly praise everyone at the same time.
In fact, itās not just flattery, itās really nice that they all look good together.
At first glance, they all have the same traditional costume, but each one seems to have a slightly different design.
The cloth wrapped around her waist was also loose and baggy like trousers, giving her a lot of personality.
Looking closely, thereās actually more people here than I thought.
[Oh? Shia and Chiyu-san tooā¦?]
It was Shia and Chiyu-san who were sneaking around in the back to hide from me.
Moreover, they were both wearing the traditional costumes like everyone else. What a surprise.
[Ummā¦ Something was brought over by Laurier-san and Shia and the others ended up wearing it without knowing itā¦..]
[W, why do I have to dress like thisā¦]
Shia said with a wry smile as if she was troubled while Chiyu-san shyly turned to the day after tomorrow and muttered.
It seemed that Laurier forced her to wear it as it was and to come along with the rest.
Both of their bodies were quite exposed thanks to wearing the traditional costume.
Shia has a long, thin tail that she usually hides in her clothes, and Chiyu-san has a fox-like tail, which allows her butt to be half-exposed so it feels a bit racy.
Each of them had a good set of breasts, but Chiyu-sanās in particular are as big as Rithinaāsā¦
[You two look good together. Cute.]
I ended up saying that in my usual way.
The moment I said that, I realized that I might have said something wrong.
Will this constitute as sexual harassment?
[Ah, thank you. Shia, Iāve never dressed like this so I didnāt really understandā¦]
Shia seemed to take my words straight. Iām safe.
No, sheās actually pretty cute.
I wonder if she doesnāt want people to look at her horns so sheās wearing a veil and wearing an eye patchā¦
I took a closer look at Shia.
Her breasts are neither big nor small. They are well balanced and seem to have good elasticity.
ā¦What am I talking about?
[Ah, donāt look at Shia-sama too much. Donāt look at me either!]
As I was staring at Shia, Chiyu-san interrupted.
Her exposed breasts shook in the process.
For a moment, it seemed to overlap with the scene in the public bath last night.
When Chiyu-san noticed that I was clearly focusing on my chest, she turned around in a panic, but this time her back and buttocks were exposed.
As I said earlier, thanks to Chiyu-sanās tail, her buttocks were glamorous.
[S-Shia-sama, letās go over thereā¦]
Perhaps Chiyu-san couldnāt stand the stares at her anymore, so she took Shia away.
No, oy, Iām not doing anything.
Even though she didnāt seem to be showing much discomfort, I guess my leering was a bit too blatant. I need some introspection.
Oh well, letās enjoy leering at everyone who will definitely allow me to do so bluntly instead.
[Yes, Iāll take a picture.]
I took pictures of everyone wearing the local traditional costumes with my smartphone.
[Thatās right, Kagura-san, that looks good. Could you bend over a little more?]
Kagura-san, who was sitting on a girlās seat, leaned back according to my instructions.
It caused her butt to stick out, and also emphasized her breasts.
I took one picture after another of such scenes.
It almost felt like I was a photographer.
[Oh, itās good. Itās really good, Kagura-san.]
Kagura-san turned into a shy lily when praised. Truly like an angel.
[Then, next, Rithina-sama, please pose like thisā¦try putting your chests together, okay?]
The demands escalated. Am I a pervert?
[Ummā¦with Rithina-sama?]
[Itās alright. Yesā¦is it like this?]
When Kagura-san and Rithina huddled together as I told them, the four huge mountains pressed against each other and distorted their shapes. Like crustal movement.
I was so moved that I almost cried, and pressed the shutter button on my smartphone.
[I need you to take the next picture for me. Ummā¦ then, Sharon, Celes, and Mina, can you come over for a second?]
I called the three of them while handing my smartphone over to Rithina and guided them to a nearby bench.
[Sharon is over here and Celes is over hereā¦.. Can Mina hug me from behind?]
After carefully specifying the position, I sat in the middle of the three.
Wrapped both of my hands around Sharon and Celesā shoulders and hugged them.
Then, Mina wrapped her hand around my neck from behind.
[Haruto-sama, is it like this?]
Mina asks while cradling the back of my head on her chest.
The honeymoon was so much fun!
[Then, Iāll take a picture.]
Rithina probably captured the sight of my blissful face on the smartphone.
[Yes, I was able to take a picture.]
While thanking Rithina, I slid my hand that was holding Sharon and Celesā shoulders down.
Simply put, I wormed my way toward their breasts while still keeping them in my arms.
The two protested against me who suddenly began to rub their chest, but I continued without hesitation.
I love the posture of holding the girls on my left and right and rubbing each of their breasts.
Let me remind you that even for me, itās not often that Iām in such a satisfying state.
[Oh, thatās a nice expression. Shall I take another picture?]
[Huh!? Ri, Rithina-sama, did you just take the picture? Nnn!]
Sharon panicked when the scene where her chest was being massaged was filmed.
If this is a manga, I mightāve been drawn with pinwheel-like eyes right now. Well, maybe.
I got carried away and kept fondling their breasts.
My brain felt like itās melting from hearing the two voices coming from both my left and myright
Then, Mina, who was left alone due to lack of extra hands on my part, let go of her hold around my neck and slipped her hands into my clothes.
Minaās smooth palm touched my chest, and I let out a voice unintentionally.
Furthermore, when Mina called my name in my ear, she also nibbled at it with her mouth.
The moment my ear was bitten, a shiver ran up my spine.
Seeing me like that, the two people on my left and right whose breasts were being fondled by me started to fight back.
While hugging me, Sharon stretched her head towards my face and licked my ear.
Since Mina was nibbling at the ear on Celesā side, the latter opted to put her hand on my thigh instead.
And then he started gently stroking the root part.
This feels so good that I was on the verge of total surrender in an instant.
I can handle thisā¦ Not!
I donāt know if I should endure itā¦!
[Hey, something just startedā¦]
Seeing us on fire, Kagura-san was at a loss for words.
[Umā¦ what should we do? Shall we join in? Oh, but before thatā¦]
Rithina took one more picture like a true photographer she was asked to. Wait wait.
[Eeh? What is going on here? Going at it already?]
While we were in the middle of all that, Laurier and the others who had gone to get drinks came.
Laurierās voice brought us back to ourselves.
Sharon and Celes slipped away from me and straightened their untidy chestpiece.
Noā¦ Can we please continue?
Nah nah, we really shouldnāt.
Shia and Chiyu-san are also here; even though theyāre not nearby at the moment.
[Ehemā¦ ummā¦ Well, letās take a photo of Laurier and the others next, maybe?]
How blatant, even for me.
[Eehh? Are you going to stop already?]
Tanya, who was squatting at my feet before I knew it, said so.
Her gaze wasnāt even directed at my face.
[Well, thenā¦ Iāll get you a drink!]
Sharon and Celes immediately left their spots.
I suppose there is no need to be that embarrassedā¦
Afterwards, Shia and Chiyu-san came when I was taking pictures of Aura, Laurier, Tanya, and Ercule.
She seemed to be referring to the smartphone.
Oh noā¦ What should I do with this?
Isnāt it inevitable that this would have happened if I had kept using my smartphone in a state of euphoria?
Maybe itās better to lieā¦?
Alright, letās do just that.
Before I could spit out any lie, Tanya simply explained.
[Pictures? What are you saying? Are you telling me there is a tool that can instantly draw a picture of a scenery?]
After listening to Tanyaās explanation, Chiyu-san became puzzled.
By the way, you still need to use a fairly large machine to take pictures in this world. But, the image quality is poor. And it seems that itās not using film or something, but some other methodā¦ I forgot the details.
Anyways, itās not very feasible. There shouldnāt be a device in this world that can take pictures the size of a smartphone.
[No, thatās why itās like this board.]
I missed the timing to deceive them and in the meantime, Tanya kept spouting everything without a care.
Hmmā¦ Will this be alright?
Rithina whispered in my ear as I completely gave up trying to deceive Shia.
[I forgot to hide it, but is it really alright to tell them?]
It seemed like Rithina was worried over it as well.
[Ahā¦ Well, Tanya has already told them anyway, though I also wonder if itās okayā¦]
[Is that so? Then, can you leave it to me for a moment?]
[Leave it to youā¦? Ummā¦ Sure, anything for youā¦?]
I answered without really understanding, but what would you entrust to me?
Rithina left my side and approached Shia and Chiyu-san.
[Itās an ultra-compact camera that was secretly developed in the Milis Kingdom.]
[This is calledā¦ Cameraā¦?]
Shia and Chiyu-san were shocked by the unfamiliar words that Rithina mentioned.
[No, no, I told you its name already before.]
Even though they didnāt believe me when I said it, Tanya complained about the two who didnāt seem to believe her when she said it.
Well, itās the words coming out of a princessā mouth. Surely it carries a lot more weight.
It canāt be helped if they didnāt believe Tanya.
They wouldnāt believe me immediately either no matter what I said.
I guess Iāll have to make a follow up later.
[Itās still a prototype and we havenāt been able to produce more than one butā¦ This will be a confidential item of the Milis Kingdom, so keep it a secret.]
Isnāt Rithina saying bullshit at the moment?
[Such a small cameraā¦ Milisā technological prowess is trulyā¦]
Shia and Chiyu-san trembled before Earthās cutting-edge technology called smartphones.
However, seeing the two of them, Rithina grinned.
Wow. So she can make a face like that.
[Where does the picture come from if you take a picture with this?]
[Thatās top secret. Iām sorry, butā¦]
She used the ātop secretā excuse to answer Shiaās question.
Since itās top secret, thereās no way Shia would pursue the topicā¦right?
Actually, as of now, you can only check the pictures on the screen, since thereās no way to develop the photo itself.
[Please keep it confidential.]
Shia could do nothing but nod at Rithina who smiled and stuck her nails.
[Are you sure that was appropriate?]
After the photo session ended when it got dark, I asked Rithina who had finished changing her clothes.
[Are we talking about your smartphone?]
[Itās alright. Rather, Iām glad that we were able to appeal to the empire that Milisā technological prowess is wonderful.]
[Yes, but that thing is from Earth. Itās not Milisā technical powerā¦]
[It is better this way. Besides, there is no way they will believe it if I told them the truth.]
It felt like I hadnāt seen this wicked side of Rithina in a long time.
Well, Rithina didnāt even explain what kind of object the smartphone was. She was able to deceive them in a good way and, on top of that, it seemed to be a beneficial result for Rithina so I guess itās fine.
[Iām sorry, Haruto-kun. Maybe I shouldnāt have done something like that?]
By the time I came to a conclusion, Rithina was disappointed.
[No, I said Iāll leave it to you, and if Rithina-sama thinks itās okay, it doesnāt matter.]
[Good. If Haruto-kun doesnāt like itā¦ Iā¦]
Rithina looked me in the eyes with a shy upturned look.
However, this seems like a calculated actionā¦?
No, I donāt care about that.
Whatās important is what I think of the girl in front of me and the person Iām married to.
[I believe that Rithina-sama thinks and acts properly. Thatās why I wonāt hate you for it.]
Saying that, I hugged Rithina.
Rithina rested her cheek on my chest and hugged me back.
We hugged like that for a while.
