Interlude – Oh! My Master!

Gaolise sat slumped like a soulless doll for a long time after Yujin left.

She couldn’t believe it.

The White Calamity, the Demon of Frost, Gaolise, who had lived for hundreds of years, was being trampled so mercilessly by a human she didn’t even know the name of? She had always thought she might be defeated by a human someday, but she never imagined she would meet such a miserable end.

Moreover, she didn’t just get defeated. Not only was she unable to use a single spell properly, but even her horns, which could be said to be everything to a Demon, were cut off.

At the very least, if a human was going to defeat her, she thought it would be a bit more romantic. If they clashed with all their might, and she fell in a fierce battle where blood and flesh flew, she would have accepted her death without complaint.

But this was not it.

That red-haired girl didn’t use even ten percent of her true power, let alone her full strength. On the other hand, she struggled with all her might, drawing on every last ounce of strength she had, but she was just crushed like a bug.

An overwhelming skill that didn’t even give her the will to resist.

Gaolise lowered her gaze and trembled.

“Ugh… ugh….”

A chill began to gnaw at her body.

She despaired once more at the creeping cold. Because her horns were cut off and she lost her power, she couldn’t maintain her body temperature as she used to. Gaolise, whose epithet was Frost, was freezing over, ironically.

“…….”

Gaolise recalled the events of the past.

A long time ago, the Demon of Blazing Flames, Plüton, had boasted to her that he had caught a Demon without horns. She didn’t think much of it at the time, but now that she was in that position, it was so chilling. That Demon, with its eyes gouged out and limbs severed, was processed into a doll and is still alive ‘to this day’.

She had to hide right away, but even that was not easy.

Humans hated Demons so much that they established the Holy See, an anti-Demon organization, and the Elves, whose part of the World Tree was burned during the Demon invasion, had not lifted the Demon extermination order even after five hundred years. The Suin of Water lost their prince, who was said to be replaced once every thousand years, at the hands of Demons. Their leader is still vacant.

A wanderer.

There is no place for a Demon to stand.

The cut surface of her severed horns would become a brand that would torment her forever.

“Ugh….”

She would die no matter where she went.

Rather than being caught by a Demon and becoming a plaything-

“Master.”

Suddenly, the sensation of a soft cloth placed on her body.

Gaolise, who had been crying, turned her head to look at the owner of the voice.

“I brought it from the cave. I drove all the Trolls out, so you can live there for the time being.”

Her first and last subordinate.

A Minotaur.

The gaze looking down at her, the mournful eyes of the black cow, and the fact that she was weaker than her subordinate were so terrible that she reflexively shouted.

“Don’t pity me!”

Even as she said this, she was afraid inside.

The Ring of Domination had been taken away, and there was no way to reapply it. That cow-head was already out of her hands. What kind of subordinate would serve a master who would be helplessly killed by a single kick? She regretted treating him so harshly, but it was too late. She could only hope that he would kill her with as little pain as possible.

“Hieuk!”

When the Minotaur’s huge shadow moved, Gaolise squeezed her eyes shut and gasped.

“Ugh……?”

A clumsy but careful touch gently wrapped around her body. Gaolise unknowingly opened her eyes at the somehow comforting feeling.

“Uh, uh?”

What she saw when she opened her eyes was the Minotaur lifting her in a princess carry. She was momentarily stunned by the feeling of floating, but she belatedly realized that she was only wearing a piece of cloth over her naked body, and she blushed and shouted.

“W-What are you doing, you cow-head!”

“…….”

Silence.

Gaolise became anxious.

The image of her dying in a million different ways flickered before her eyes. He could beat her to a pulp, stomp her to death, or beat her for a long time like that damn red-haired human.

“Ugh….”

She tried to calm her pounding heart.

As she trembled helplessly, they arrived at the deepest part of the Frost Cave, the Minotaur’s base.

“There’s only straw for bedding, but it’ll be decent enough if you use the clothes I stole.”

The Minotaur put her down on a large pile of straw and disappeared.

“…….”

Gaolise looked around on the straw and thought.

What the hell.

What’s going on.

---

It had already been three days since she started living in the Frost Cave.

The Minotaur treated her so well that it was stupid.

When she was lazing around, touching the stolen weapons and clothes, he would somehow hunt wild animals and offer them to her. When she saw him struggling with the raw meat, he would even light a fire and grill it for her. Even so, the Minotaur himself slept on the cold, bare floor, guarding against the remaining Trolls and standing watch.

Gaolise felt burdened and sorry for all this kindness.

But perhaps because her pride as a Demon remained, the words “I’m sorry” didn’t come out of her mouth.

Instead, she complained. When she whined that there wasn’t enough to eat, he would go hunting without a word. When she complained that the room was dirty, he would diligently clean it using tools he wasn’t even familiar with. When she grumbled that she wanted to wash, he would somehow prepare warm water and bring it to her.

Guilt.

She had deliberately tormented him in the hope that he would abandon such a pathetic self and find his own way. Because a Demon with its horns cut off was worthless. She was in a situation where she should be bowing just for not being killed. So she treated him even more harshly. Telling him to abandon her and leave as soon as possible.

But on the 8th day.

She couldn’t take it anymore.

“W-What happened?”

The Minotaur, who was a little later than usual, returned with deep wounds all over his body. His back was so badly torn that it was unsightly, and his right hand was tattered as if it had been broken. Including the minor injuries, he was in a very precarious state.

The Minotaur said without showing any signs of pain.

“The Trolls didn’t know their place and joined forces. But it’s okay. I defeated them all.”

“Oh, what should I do… Th-There must be herbs! There must be herbs!”

Her heart sank, and she desperately rummaged through her belongings. There was a mountain of stolen goods. There must be some herbs. Gaolise rummaged through the junk without even realizing that her hands were getting hurt, and she was able to find a box with a picture of herbs on it.

“I-I found it!”

But the herbs in the box had already rotted.

It was because she had just piled them up and never used them.

“Ah….”

Tears welled up in her eyes.

The powerlessness of not being able to do anything for him, even though he was working so hard for her, pierced her heart.

Gaolise slumped down again.

“…I-I’m sorry. Hieuk, sob… I’m sorry.”

She didn’t know how much she had agonized over saying these words. But now she could say it. She was sorry. She was grateful that he had worked so hard for her pathetic self. So she asked him to forgive her.

The Minotaur completely recovered his body with his unique regenerative power not long after, but her torn heart did not recover.

Gaolise changed from this day on.

It had been 15 days since she started living in the Frost Cave.

Her life as a dried fish, dependent on the Minotaur, hadn’t changed, but their relationship had developed a little, from master and slave to reliable comrades.

“Come here! I’ll wash you!”

Gaolise, who felt sorry for the Minotaur who couldn’t wash comfortably because of his size, soaked a torn cloth and washed his body by hand.

“S-Strong people don’t wash!”

“What kind of bullshit is that! Dirty is dirty!”

“Kuooh…!”

“Don’t get me wrong! It’s because you stink when you’re next to me!”

The size difference was enormous, so she had to use her whole body and it took a lot of time, but she wanted to do something for him, so she sweated profusely and diligently washed the Minotaur’s body.

In fact, there was nothing special about why the Minotaur refused so vehemently. It was because Gaolise’s breasts were too big. When she reached out to wash his back, the sensation of her full breasts tormented him.

In addition, unlike her large breasts, her physique was very small even by human standards, so she had no choice but to be in a full-body contact state. Gaolise was a little smaller than Yujin, who was 152cm tall.

Gaolise didn’t know that and washed the Minotaur, twisting her body this way and that.

It took an hour and twenty minutes just to wash him.

The Minotaur showed superhuman patience and prevented an erection during that long time.

“Kueueu….”

It was a taste of death in many ways.

“Minota? Uh, are you sick somewhere?”

Gaolise trembled with tears in her eyes when Minota groaned. Since being attacked by the Trolls, she had become extremely sensitive to Minota’s safety.

She would make a fuss over even the smallest wound as if her own body had been hurt, and furthermore, if he was seriously injured while hunting, she would show panic symptoms close to dyspnea.

“I-I’m okay!”

So he desperately hid it.

Knowing that all of this was his master’s pure kindness, he couldn’t complain.

Gaolise’s physical contact didn’t end there.

She pointed to the straw she used as a bed and shouted.

“You sleep on the straw today!”

“No! Master, you’ll catch a cold!”

“I won’t accept a refusal!”

“Uoh…!”

“B-But, it’s unfair if only I use it…. S-So….”

It’s always like this.

If he refuses her kindness, she droops and becomes restless.

“Th-That’s right! We can sleep together!”

The Minotaur squeezed his eyes shut.

He couldn’t refuse his master’s kindness again today.

It had been a month since they had been living away from human eyes.

The two had become very close. Gaolise washed Minotaur’s body once every three days, and they always slept together when they went to sleep.

She had developed a new sleeping habit, which was to hug Minota’s arm tightly. Gaolise herself only thought of it as a good pillow to hug, but the Minotaur didn’t. He developed insomnia, unlike a monster.

It was hard to hold back anymore.

-Swish.

In a remote cave where no one came, the Minotaur threw off the cloth he was wearing on his lower body and began to masturbate.

He had accumulated too much over the past few days. He didn’t know what he would do if he didn’t release it now. Leaving aside the physical contact, Gaolise’s appearance was too defenseless. She doesn’t even wear a bra. Even so, the way she desperately struggled to help him continued to stimulate Minota’s lust.

However, there was something the Minotaur had overlooked.

Gaolise always tried to stay with him except for hunting time. She only felt safe when she was by his side, no matter where she went or what she did. Separation anxiety, which would only occur in pets, had also occurred in her.

“Minota? Where are you~?”

Unaware that her master was looking for him, he continued to shake his arm.

“I found you! Look at this! I learned how to sew this time….”

-Bururureut!!!!

By the time Gaolise found Minota, he had already ejaculated. She couldn’t close her mouth when she saw the thick semen that kept coming out.

“Uh….”

The Minotaur, who had been caught masturbating, was horrified and wrapped a cloth around his lower body. He hadn’t been able to cum satisfactorily yet, so the milky white liquid dripped down between the cloths.

“Uoh! Uooh…!”

Thud! The Minotaur knelt down. Usually, when he was caught doing such dirty things, icicles would be stuck in his head first.

“T-That, Minota….”

However, contrary to the Minotaur’s expectations, no curses, icicles, or kicks flew at him.

“A-Are you… h-having a hard time these days?”

Gaolise blushed like a carrot and said hesitantly.

“C-Can I… h-help you?”
