Chapter Index

    ‘I feel like a lot of things are suddenly becoming intertwined… … ‘

    Is this what it feels like to be a manager rather than a rank-and-file employee?

    Now that I have so many things in my hands, it is becoming difficult to manage them.

    24 hours a day has not changed from before to now.

    However, when I think about it now, the problem is that when I compare myself back then and now, the time I spend immersed in something becomes quite a long time.

    From investigating Eloise’s background, to the fun life of Parasta exploration with the prisoners, and up to here.

    As I looked down at the black-haired lady with her tentacles out, my mind was filled with countless thoughts.

    ‘In the end, the question is what to do with this… … ‘

    Rather than feeling comfortable, Yui is sleeping soundly, feeling tired and exhausted.

    It was evident from her sleeping position with her back to the wall that she had been on high alert all her waking hours to see if something would happen to her, and that she had been on edge until she fell asleep.

    Her traditional clothes, which are now dusty and slightly dirty, effectively cover Yui’s body and prevent other foreign substances from touching her body.

    However, the mattress may have been unstable, and I was worried that she might get sick first if she stayed like this, sleeping on the bare floor, so for a while I was lost in the thought of whether or not I should even take off her clothes and give her a bath and do some laundry.

    ‘But if it’s still possible… …

    I want to avoid doing anything that puts me on guard… … ‘

    At first, I thought I would leave it to Vivien and Ranie, but perhaps there was some misunderstanding between them and they took Yui’s clothes off, so they too had lost trust in Yui.

    Moreover, when I saw the girls shaking with pleasure as they surrendered themselves to my tentacles, it seemed like they thought they were already on my team.

    It seemed that humans captured by monsters would degenerate in different directions in many ways if they did not die.

    Just looking at the prison cell right now, I have no room for excuses.

    ‘Isn’t my existence the living witness of that…? … ‘

    So this was the next best option.

    ‘Pina, are the kids sleeping?’

    “Ah… Ooh… I’m crying… …

    excuse me… now… … ”

    ‘Just take the kids and come to this room.’

    “Al… I guess… … ”

    Now, as an important talent, I don’t touch Pina any more.

    So, as I looked down at the children who depended on her, who was virtually the only one among the prisoners who was not consumed by pleasure and who maintained her sanity, I was urging her to come into the room.

    Seeing her showing her restless mood by perking up her rabbit ears sensitively, I waved my tentacles as if sighing.

    ‘Again, I want to ask you a favor.

    ‘I don’t mean to touch it or anything.’

    “I believe… I do… … just… Black… little… … ”

    I couldn’t help but feel a subtle sense of guilt rising up as she hugged the children in her arms, softly shedding tears, as if she was overflowing with emotion.

    She is in a corner of the prison area.

    Even now, in the open center, the prisoner women were chanting in a half-crazy manner, so the sound would be hitting my ears without any filtering.

    For Pina, who is left alone and cornered, this situation may inevitably be unsettling.

    As she seems to have a kind and gentle heart, she may feel a sense of guilt for not having to suffer alone in the current situation where her people, who were the only people she could trust during slavery, are suffering in various ways.

    After leading her into the room and closing the passage, the screams of the beasts could no longer be heard through the passage blocked by tree roots.

    As the room became quiet, only then did Pina’s expression gradually relax.

    After checking her reaction, I was giving her the next instructions.

    ‘Do you see it up there?

    There’s something I’d like you to do for me.

    ‘Let’s do this together with the kids.’

    “Ae… They say the kids should do the same… ?

    What… are you trying to make me do? … !!”

    ‘uh… ? What are you doing… … ‘

    “I was a fool to believe… !!

    Just do it to me… !!

    Don’t touch innocent children… ..!!”

    ‘I should hit Enic or something… … ‘

    Maybe it’s because I feel like regrets are becoming more frequent in many ways, but I felt like I was only accumulating a sense of defeat today.

    .

    .

    .

    .

    .

    .

    “It’s really pretty… … Your skin is also beautiful… …

    Your body will definitely give birth to a healthy baby… … ”

    “Praise… Is that true… … ?

    More than that… Please don’t stutter too much… … ?”

    “Umm… I’m just helping… …

    You’ll be fine as long as you’re with me, so don’t worry too much… … ”

    The sound of rippling water and the slap of stepping on water.

    Pina and Yui, who had been arguing for a while, ended up washing themselves in the bathtub.

    Likewise, Yui tried to never let down her guard like before, but her opponent was a beastman.

    Even for females, there were areas where they surpassed humans in basic physical strength and other aspects.

    As she reassured and persuaded, Yui, with a resigned look, ended up taking a shower together as Pina led her.

    “Lukewarm water feels good, right?”

    “Okay, so I won’t finish it quickly… ?”

    The sight of him still looking around to see when and where tentacles will reach out makes him look like a cat with its fur raised in tension.

    In response to her behavior, only Pina, who knew the true meaning of my request, tried to calm her down and washed up with her.

    “Wow… … !! Your breasts are so big!!”

    “Now… wait a minute… !! It’s rude to say that… !!

    sorry… … !!”

    The captive girls, who had found water to wash themselves after a long time, seemed excited, splashing water on each other and playing with the water.

    But in the meantime, a younger girl was looking closely at Pina washing Yui’s body.

    The girl, who was looking at Yui’s breasts, which could only be described as truly enormous, with bright eyes and exuding admiration, was stopped by a slightly larger girl.

    As someone who had experience as a slave, it seemed inevitable that she would feel fear upon seeing the human Yui.

    “It’s okay, come closer… ”

    “Well.. I’ll say it well… therefore… … ”

    Although he is obviously still a child. A poor child who was born into a world where he had to live up to the minimum age.

    The older girl’s expression became tense due to tension, and Yui’s face seemed to reflect that she was angry at her rude behavior, as she hugged the smaller girl, who was about the same age as her younger brother.

    As she was the same girl who had almost been brutally treated by mercenaries due to her innocence befitting her age, the tension that was released while washing her body with water seemed to be clearly evident.

    However, Yui came straight forward and pulled the two girls towards her, and the two girls were surprised and hugged her tightly, each with a bright smile.

    “You have to be careful. If you relax in a place like this…

    Because I will definitely be targeted by ‘it’… … ”

    Young prisoners held in their arms.

    Yui’s voice was trembling as she looked down at these children, who seemed to recall memories of the past.

    ‘My sister… Was this what it felt like… … ‘

    Even at that moment when he was running out of breath while holding the hand of the young life in his arms.

    And in the end, even at the moment when I let go of that hand and ended up shedding tears over the inevitable choice.

    “Huh?”

    “It’s nothing.

    Now, stick closer.

    It must never fall?”

    “Yes!!”

    As Yui began to shed tears while taking care of the children, the others did not notice that Pina’s expression, who was quietly watching, gradually darkened.

    .

    .

    .

    “I sleep well… ”

    “Sure… … ”

    Yui and Pina were lying on a large tree root mattress, each holding a child in their arms, and small murmurs were flowing from their mouths.

    “I can’t believe that even such small children are subjected to this kind of thing… …

    I have to do something… … ”

    “There is no way out now… And we… … ”

    Hearing Yui’s murmur of sympathy, Pina gently stroked the back of the head of the girl who was snuggling into her arms.

    The sparkling red jewel-like eyes are half-closed and staring at Yui, pretending not to be.

    “But how did you guys come here…? ?

    if… … I was kidnapped from somewhere else… … ”

    “Are you a student at the academy?”

    “That… It’s… … ?”

    Seeing Yui speechless due to the sudden question, Pina was whispering quietly as if she knew that would happen.

    “We were slaves bought for your testing.

    Did you see Arachnella in that room too?

    Originally, we would have been the meat shields to block Arachnella on behalf of the students… ”

    “During special evaluation… … I thought the difficulty level was abnormally high… … ”

    “I don’t know the details either… …

    Anyway, this… Maybe it’s a person… Should I call it a monster…

    ‘He’ saved us from such a desperate situation.

    I helped you escape.”

    “But… … This can be seen as an escape… … ”

    “Our people… I couldn’t believe him until the end… …

    So, he told us to wait a moment so he could escape…

    Unable to endure that time, they betrayed him and tried to run away on their own.”

    “No matter what… … !”

    Perhaps, like Yui, it was natural that ordinary people would never be able to understand.

    As a result, the prisoners lost the freedom of their own bodies and were reduced to toys to be played with as they pleased, and it is not difficult to package this as punishment.

    However, Pina, who listened to Yui’s voice, which was aroused to the point where the children did not wake up, simply continued to answer calmly.

    “He didn’t touch me anymore…

    And these kids, you’re not even touching them…

    I think he at least kept his word.

    For sure… If only other people had been patient and had faith a little longer… … ”

    “That’s sophistry… ! There’s no way you can trust what a monster says in the first place…

    It was clearly an excuse from the beginning to exploit prisoners… !”

    “Humans… What was different… … ”

    “Yes… ?”

    “Nothing… no.

    It must be nighttime by now.

    For now, I’ll sleep for tomorrow… …

    Please take care of that child.”

    In response to Pina’s remark, which cut off the flow of conversation and lowered her head as if she did not want to say anything more, Yui ended up leaving only a simple reply.

    “Yes… No matter what happens… … ”

    Yui swallowed the words, ‘Because I will protect you.’ and gently adjusted her position to lie down so as not to make the prisoner girl in her arms uncomfortable.

    However, even though it is now time to sleep, perhaps it is because I took a bath earlier, or perhaps it is because my clothes have disappeared and my voluptuous body is now naked.

    ‘As expected… I can’t believe it…

    Stealing them one by one like this…

    And in the end…’

    Yui’s eyes seemed to be sleepy and anxious, as if she had trouble sleeping, and she continued to glance sideways at her surroundings, seemingly unable to stop.

    Just the body heat shared with the little girl in her arms is helping her move away from anxiety and control her emotions.

    And Pina, who was quietly watching the scene with half-closed eyes, was soon closing her eyes in contemplation and gently biting her lip.

    ‘Rather than people who only lie…

    Maybe he would be better… … ‘
