Episode 311: Lady Vera (2)

“Duchess Vera’s reputation precedes her. I’ve heard she is not only exceptionally skilled but also a woman of dazzling beauty, the heroine of heroines. I have always wanted to speak with her. Hahaha.”

“Likewise. I have admired the reputation of the Saintess as well.”

Seated across from each other, the female knight Natalia and the Saintess exchanged polite words with smiles, breaking the ice for their conversation.

Polite words.

“…”

The polite exchange between two beautiful women. When I imagined it, I couldn’t help but think of something far less innocent—two women, their lips coated in red lipstick, providing “service” to me all day long with those alluring mouths.

Now that was a kind of “polite service” I’d welcome. I could take it all day without complaint. In fact, I’d enjoy it immensely.

But alas, my mind kept wandering to such indecent thoughts.

—Heavy.

Anyway, if the woman commanding a knight like this was the duchess, then surely, she must be breathtakingly beautiful. Just thinking about it stirred something heavy within me.

How should I deal with these women?

No matter what, I wanted to make them mine. Should I detain Natalia immediately and begin her “training”? Perhaps drug her to sleep, restrain her limbs, and then train her thoroughly as I did with the Saintess—licking her for hours on end?

Once I had broken this female knight, I could use her to ensnare the duchess herself.

A woman of such high status and ambition, brimming with pride and power. Tasting her alluring body, groping her breasts, kissing her passionately while dominating her… that would be more invigorating than anything else for me, an incubus.

Desire welled up within me.

But I must remain cold and rational. I didn’t know how strong this duchess might be.

Moreover, unlike the Saintess, who was stripped of all her power and fled as a pauper, the duchess still held sway over her forces and resources.

Corrupting a woman like that and making her my personal slave wouldn’t be easy. Acting rashly could backfire. For now, I’d hold off on making any moves toward Natalia.

“These are trying times, Saintess. I’ve heard how you thwarted Count Saidin’s agents. You must know well that Count Saidin is a wicked man seeking to exploit the chaos caused by the angels’ invasion for his gain.”

“Indeed.”

“The duchess has high expectations regarding this matter.”

The duchess and the Saintess.

Both women belonged to the ruling class, each holding great power. Perhaps this shared status gave them some common ground? I didn’t know for sure, but they seemed to have things they could agree on.

The Saintess and Natalia carried on their conversation in a pleasant atmosphere.

“Of course, the duchess is also wary of the elves. They, too, are eyeing this land. They are as much of a threat as the angels.”

The duchess was clearly keeping the elves in check as well.

Let’s piece this together.

At the center of it all were the angels and the count, the most powerful forces at present. Then, a little further away was the Elven Kingdom, with the duchess’s territory beside it.

A few steps beyond that lay my remote domain… which made it clear the duchess intended to recruit us as her shield or defensive barrier.

That seemed a reasonable guess.

“Naturally, the elves must be kept in check as well.”

“Indeed, we are aligned in our goals.”

Natalia smiled faintly.

“In that case, meet with the duchess. She wishes to speak with the Saintess directly.”

So now they planned to meet directly?

The Saintess immediately glanced my way.

A direct meeting… this could be an opportunity. If I met her in person, it might be easier to devise a way to secure the duchess herself rather than scheming from afar.

Once the duchess was captured, everything would fall into place. I’d confine her to a chamber and spend days pampering her body—caressing her, sucking on her breasts, and claiming her as mine. Soon enough, she’d become my obedient slave. With the duchess under my control, she wouldn’t dare resist. I could take my time enjoying her body while satisfying my desires.

But this could be a trap.

For now, I should agree to meet her, but it must be on our terms. With a subtle signal to the Saintess, she interpreted my intent and spoke.

“Understood. However, Natalia, it is difficult for us to travel far at this time. Thus, I believe we need to negotiate a suitable location for the meeting.”

“Of course.”

With that, Natalia and the Saintess negotiated.

The negotiations proceeded smoothly. Natalia seemed almost eager to accommodate us, as if she had intended to agree to our terms from the beginning. If she’s genuinely this amicable, she could become a valuable ally.

In the end, the meeting location was decided: our domain.

“Well done, Saintess. Hehehe.”

“I put some effort into it. Hmm.”

The Saintess stretched, looking rather pleased with herself.

“But it’s impressive, isn’t it? For the duchess to personally come all the way here for a meeting.”

“It shows how urgent this matter is for her or how important she considers us. Besides, I believe my status as a Saintess and the trust it instills also played a role.”

“Hahaha, is that so?”

As expected of our Saintess!

“Additionally, I believe she’s interested in you.”

“In me?”

“Who wouldn’t see you as a competent commander? After all, you accompanied me, a fugitive Saintess, to this point. She must be intrigued by your abilities.”

“Intrigued, huh.”

Well, most of it was thanks to Karuti’s map hacks and our resources, but if they had high expectations, that worked for me.

“Whatever the case, this duchess represents a tremendous opportunity for you. I could feel your lust from the moment you entered the room—it was practically radiating from you.”

“Oh no. Did you sense it all?”

“Wasn’t it obvious? You were practically in heat. Hahaha.”

Guess I was caught.

“If you make the duchess your captive, then surely…”

“We can stand against the count.”

This was literally an opportunity to consume the duchess’s power. I needed to use this chance wisely.

“Whatever the case, now that the duchess has agreed to come here, the advantage is entirely ours.”

“Indeed.”

“Do whatever it takes to secure the duchess and begin her training. It’s like the fruit is falling straight into our mouths, so make sure you handle it properly.”

“Of course! Leave it to me!”

I smiled at the Saintess as we schemed to dominate the duchess. Honestly, it was such an evil plan that even I felt like the embodiment of malice. No matter how you looked at it, I resembled a demon lord to the core.

A man plotting to defile an outstretched hand of the duchess—if that’s not wicked, then what is?

Now that it was decided to side with the duchess, the envoy sent by Count Saidin was nothing but an afterthought.

“I… I’ll say it again, but… those three minor lords on the frontier have no connection to Count Saidin. Investigating this will gain you nothing…”

The count’s envoy vehemently denied the accusations. It was clear that those three barons were sacrificial pawns.

In any case, there was nothing to be gained from the count’s overtures.

“Very well. Guards! Throw this man in the dungeon!”

“What!”

This man knew that the duchess’s envoy had come to us. Knowing that, we couldn’t let him return.

“Wait! Why are you doing this? The count has always sought good relations with you—!”

“Silence!”

If the news of our possible alliance with the duchess reached the count, it would only spell trouble for us.

Almost immediately after, the dark elves arrived, and the count’s envoy was thrown into the dungeon.

“That damn count. Go fight your battles with the angels in the center. We’ll just reap the rewards from the sidelines.”

If the angels and the count continued to weaken each other in their squabbles, we could ally with the duchess to wipe them both out and consolidate power. With that done, even the elves wouldn’t dare to challenge us.

“Master!”

Having wrapped up what needed to be done, Sharan came looking for me.

“Ah, Sharan. What’s up?”

“That thing! The one you ordered a while ago, it’s arrived!”

“Order? Oh!”

Right!

It had finally arrived!

“Let’s go!”

“Shasha!”

I immediately dashed down the stairs with Sharan.

Previously, I had placed a large order for standardized equipment for my soldiers. After the success of the first batch, I immediately made a new order, and now it seemed everything had been completed!

—Clank!

Sure enough, stepping outside, I saw it.

A wagon loaded with goods had entered the castle.

“Ah, Demon Lord! The shipment has arrived!”

“Nekri! Excellent work! Now, let’s move these items.”

“But… what kind of items are these?”

“Curious, are you?”

“Yes.”

“Bikini armor.”

“…Pardon?”

Indeed.

The items that had just arrived were all ‘standard equipment’ for my female subordinates. Bikini armor for the dark elves, sexy nun outfits for the nuns, and fairy attire for the pixies.

Everything I had ordered in bulk had been completed and delivered. Unlike Earth’s medieval period, this world seemed to have absurdly advanced production capabilities for these kinds of items, making this possible.

“Bikini armor… is that the same thing Vanessa wears under her gear?”

“Exactly. That’s the one.”

To be fair, bikini armor wasn’t something I invented—it already existed in this world. Even Vanessa wore bikini armor as if it were perfectly normal.

But here, it wasn’t intended for any indecent purposes—it was simply women’s protective gear.

They wore the bikini armor underneath, with additional armor layered on top. There wasn’t a single lewd knight walking around wearing only bikini armor.

However, from now on, when working indoors at the castle, everyone would have to wear those outfits.
