Every time the elf struggled, the chains rattled loudly, making a clamorous noise.

“□□, □□ □□!”

The elf shouted at us desperately.

“What seems to be the problem?”

“Although the goods are all good in terms of looks and figure… it’s a bit too aggressive.”

In response to my question, Shamir twisted the tip of his mustache and looked at the elf.

I have no idea why he’s yelling at me so loudly while looking at me.

“Anyway, since he’s so temperamental, it seems like we need to calm him down.”

“In that case, how about trying this?”

Aramis took out an orange sapphire from his pocket and showed it to Shamir.

“Orange sapphire?”

Shamir was surprised when he saw the orange sapphire crystal I took out of a small leather pouch.

“I heard that this is a drug produced in your country.”

“Yes, it is a drug produced in our country, but it is not distributed in crystal form like this.”

Shamir nodded in response to my words.

“What does that mean?”

This is a new term. I mixed the crystal with wine and drank it.

“It’s a drug used by mixing it with opium when smoking water tobacco, and in small amounts, it can produce hallucinogenic or sufficient sedative effects. However, if used in large quantities, it can have severe side effects, so it is a controlled drug under the strict orders of the previous ruler…”

Shamir placed the crystal on his palm and examined it.

“The quality is poor… and the crystal form is all messed up.”

Suddenly, he picked up a crystal and put it in his mouth.

“What?!”

The three of us were surprised by Shamir’s sudden action.

“Look! Make me vomit quickly!”

Laurent grabbed Shamir by the collar and extended his finger to force him to vomit.

“Let go! I told you earlier, orange sapphire is a commonly used drug, so it’s fine.”

Shamir pushed Laurent away.

“I tasted it, and the quality is really bad, to put it in terms you can understand… it’s like drinking cheap rum instead of wine.”

“Uh…”

We completely understood his metaphor and at the same time, felt a bit nauseous.

“However, even with this poor quality orange sapphire, the effects of the drug don’t disappear.”

“You guys wouldn’t have eaten this crystal, right?”

At his words, we all suddenly fell silent.

“Judging by your reactions, someone must have eaten it…”

Shamir looked into my eyes.

“I have a feeling… that you ate this poor quality orange sapphire.”

“H-How did you know that?”

“It’s nothing special, I just had a hunch from your reaction.”

“Really…”

“By the way, if you ate it without knowing the correct dosage, there could have been side effects.”

Shamir clicked his tongue.

“Already suffering from the side effects, I will definitely tear apart those who distributed this drug.”

I clenched my fist and spoke with a voice full of anger.

“Since we’re on the topic, I have a question I’d like to ask.”

“What is it?”

Laurent asked, and Shamir replied.

“Is there a way to get rid of the side effects?”

“Well… a way to get rid of the side effects…”

Shamir stroked his mustache and pondered deeply.

“If there’s a way, please tell us, we’ll do anything.”

I pleaded desperately, and Shamir looked at me.

“There is not absolutely no way.”

“Really?!”

I felt a flush of hope on my face at his words.

I wonder if there’s a way to resolve this damn lingering aftereffect.

“But they might not like it.”

“Let’s hear it first and then decide.”

“I don’t know how much aftereffect you’ve experienced, but if you’re holding a grudge, it seems like you’ve been through quite a lot.”

“He’s shaking like a leaf.”

“In that case…”

Shamir glanced at Laurent and Aramis, then whispered to me.

“You probably already know that the aftereffect of a man’s semen entering the body can be alleviated.”

His words made my eyes widen slightly.

“That’s right.”

I nodded.

“Then let’s get to the point.”

Shamir stepped back slightly and pointed to his lower abdomen.

“There’s only one way to completely eliminate the aftereffect of Orange Sapphire! Pregnancy.”

“What…?”

I looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.

“Exactly, there’s no solution other than pregnancy. In fact, this drug was developed for the purpose of forcing sexual slaves into heat or promoting pregnancy in harem women.”

“Oh…”

I grimaced at his words.

“Still, since you know how to eliminate the aftereffect, you’ll have to endure it until the effects diminish.”

“How long does it take for the effects to diminish?”

“It decreases by half in just 5 years.”

Shamir opened his palm and showed it to me.

“5… 5 years?!”

“And it takes a little over 10 years to completely disappear.”

“Oh my…”

His words seemed to crush any hope I had.

“Well, don’t worry, as long as you solve it in time, it shouldn’t interfere with your daily life.”

“That doesn’t seem to be the problem…”

In the end, I only received a more despairing answer that there was no solution other than enduring the pain.

“Anyway, let’s think about what to do with this elf.”

As we all looked at the elf, the bound elf looked at us with a startled and wary expression.

“Don’t use the Orange Sapphire and find another way to deal with it.”

Shamir returned the Orange Sapphire pouch to Aramis and approached the elf.

“□□ □□ □□□□□!”

The elf wriggled as Shamir approached.

“I’m going to burn incense now, so everyone should leave.”

Shamir took out a small incense and lit it with magic.

“Especially women, it could be fatal for you, so wait outside until I come up.”

“Got it.”

Since he wouldn’t be able to escape with the elf slave anyway, we left it to Shamir, the expert, and went upstairs.

#

We waited for hours, but Shamir did not come out of the underground chamber.

By now, it was halfway through the night.

“Yawn… I’m sleepy.”

I yawned long and stretched my mouth.

“Try this.”

Aramis handed me and Laurent a cup of black liquid in a ceramic cup.

“What is this?”

“Devil’s drink.”

“Devil’s… drink…?”

“That’s what they call it in the Holy See, but it’s actually coffee.”

“Ugh?! What is this, why is it so bitter?!”

As Laurent took a sip of the coffee, he spat it out.

“It’s coffee with sugar added to it.”

“Where do we have expensive sugar?”

“Then is what I put on the table salt?”

“To be honest, I thought it was salt.”

“Goodness…”

Aramis chuckled at Laurent’s response.

“Shamir told me to add sugar to it.”

Aramis put two pieces of sugar into my cup.

“Now try it.”

The sweet and bitter taste somehow appealed to me.

“It’s not bad.”

After adding four pieces of sugar, Laurent drank the coffee.

“Shamir gave it to me as a gift, and I sometimes drink it because I like the taste.”

“What… feels like my heart is racing?”

Aramis chuckled at Laurent’s words.

“It must be the awakening effect of the drink. It seems like you’re too sleepy, so keep it a secret from Rotos.”

“Understood.”

Slurp…

They quietly sipped their coffee without saying a word to each other.

“Another cup?”

Aramis offered the coffee pot to me, and I nodded.

Filling the cup with coffee, I added two sugar cubes.

“Ah…! Following the scent of the fragrant coffee.”

Shamir smiled and sat next to me.

“…?”

Feeling that he was sitting too close, I slightly shifted away.

“What about the elf, Shamir?”

“It’s done. I’m ready to take him to Otto and present him to the nobles.”

Shamir answered Aramis’s question and poured himself a cup of coffee.

“Coffee is bitter like life!”

Shamir raised a cup of coffee without sugar.

“Coffee is sweet like love.”

Aramis chuckled and raised his coffee.

They both shook their cups in the air as if toasting and drank their coffee at the same time.

“Bitter like life, sweet like love… I like that phrase.”

Laurent nodded slightly at their words.

“I will pay the slave’s price before leaving the port.”

“Expecting 20 million francs.”

“Don’t worry.”

Shamir subtly tried to put his arm around my shoulder, but I pushed his hand away.

Shamir shrugged and raised his arm, then drank his coffee.

“Oh, right, I have something fun to show you.”

Shamir, who had been sipping his coffee, suddenly remembered something and brought the elf up from the basement.

“Is it okay not to tie the elf’s hands and feet?”

“It’s fine. He’s been disciplined enough to not resist.”

Shamir grabbed the elf’s chest tightly, as if to prove his point.

“Ugh…!”

The elf flinched slightly but didn’t resist.

“To think that fierce elf would be like this…”

Laurent marveled at Shamir’s surprising skill.

“Usually, it would have been enough for a human in 1-2 hours, but it took a bit longer because he’s an elf.”

“By the way, what did you want to show us?”

“I’ll show you. Hey, dance.”

At Shamir’s command, the elf hesitated for a moment before starting to dance slowly.

Dancing sensually, moving his hips and chest, the elf showed off his provocative dance moves.

“There weren’t many difficult moves, so I taught him for fun.”

I couldn’t help but admire his skills.

It seemed like he wasn’t just a mere butler.

Blushing, the elf continued to dance, showing off his bare bottom.

“Do all slaves do this?”

Watching the elf dance sensually, I asked.

“No.”

Shamir shook his head in response.

“He spat on my face during the training, so I felt a bit annoyed and wanted to retaliate.”

“Seems a bit excessive, but thanks to that, we get to see a rare sight.”

“There’s more.”

Smack!

“Ouch?!”

Shamir approached the elf and slapped her bottom hard.

“△△ △△ △△△.”

As Shamir commanded the elf in an unknown language, she looked distressed.

“Please…!”

With a stern look from Shamir, the elf tucked her hair behind her ears and started dancing, shaking her hips from side to side.

When she shook her hips, Maga’s chest fluttered as she moved, it was a sight to behold.

“Is that dance the one that was popular before I left the country? What do you think?”

In response to Shamir’s question, I remained silent and focused on the elf’s dance, giving Shamir a thumbs up.
