Halstatt Palace

Royal office.

Jill has been working hard here since the fall of Castall. Even now, she has been standing for two hours while reporting and discussing new policies and development.

"About the results of the investigation, we found a large iron mine within the Torun territory, but it hasn’t really been touched and it’s pretty out in the open too."

"About the incorporation of local villagers into Red Army, we had them rotated them in groups of 200. They were a bit awkward with our weapons, but they work hard."

"Sewerage treatment plants which you have set up at many places throughout southern Castall...the locals are adapting pretty fast without complaint."

"We have set up a centralized warehouse to collect farming yields from the whole Castall in Torun. Decision of how much to be allocated to each village, town, noble families, merchants and delivered to Redcliffe shall be decided by the Ministry of general affairs in Redcliffe. Merchants can't deal directly with villages. Merchants instead purchase from Torun."

"We have lost 90% of the original Castall noble families after our subjugation. As you command, existing nobles who defected to us before the war shall retain their land and status. However, their power to collect tax and yields from their subjects is taken over by the kingdom."

"As 90% of the original Castall nobles were killed during the subjugation, nearly the entire Castall is without feudal lords. As the former lords' facilities still exist, family members of existing noble lords offer themselves to be the new lords at lordless territories."

"The dark elves have ventured into the south to look for dark elf tribes as part of our project to assemble all dark elves in the world to former Castall land."

Sleepy, way too sleepy. Because I stayed up wnd worked so hard last night, most of what they are saying to me is going in one ear and out the other. Fortunately, Shaela is beside me taking notes, so I just have to hear it from her later. Her inn in her town has been converted into a government office and she is appointed into the ministry of general affairs as she could read, write and count.

"Your majesty, could I have a little of your time?" A butler who used to work for the previous king came and whispered to my ears. 

"A guest seems to have come."

"Hm? Who is it?"

"Well, it seems that they want to speak with your majesty directly."

I won’t make time for such a person like that, as I look at the butler with eyes of criticism. This is my country, which is to say, I am the person with the highest authority. If the opposing party was to come so suddenly, they would have to be someone of high noble status or someone with an invitation.

I don’t mean to brag but if I were to meet everyone who wanted to see me, then the whole day would be filled just from meeting the guests. That is where the job of the butler comes in. The butler should understand this fact perfectly but it’s rare to see he does something like this.

"It’s just that the visitor is a female with a ghastly appearance. I thought that she may be an acquaintance of yours."

"I’ll meet her."

"Please come this way."

If that is the case, then I’ll grant her some living expenses and let them live in any town in the land. I had that in mind when I went to greet the one at the door, but in front of my eyes, the largest class of woman trouble was waiting for me.

"Long time no see, Your Majesty King Hiro Hezri. Congratulations on your recent conquest over Castall."

"You are……"

When I heard it was a woman, I looked at Suzy who tagged along. She is mouthing the words to me, what a life saver!

"Nojico……it’s been awhile."

"Yeah, it really has, you’ve forgotten my name too it seems."

She’s been listening carefully.

"You surprised me, coming so suddenly. What’s wrong?"

"…………"

It’s troubling if you just clam up like that; I haven’t laid my hands on her yet so she shouldn’t be pregnant. Suzy puts her hand on her face and looks down, what a weirdo.

"You big liar!!"

Nojico clasps her fingers into a fist and punches me. But, Clementine who is beside me, shouldn’t stand for that, as she grabs Nojico’s arm and sweeps her feet, causing her to fall flat on the marble floor.

"You insolent being! I’ll kill you here with my bare hands!"

Clementine points a dirk, which I don’t know when she took out, at Nojico’s neck.

"If you’re going to do it, do it quick! You changed your promise and you’re going to kill the woman who came to petition to you, you coward!"

This is bad, Clementine’s expression has disappeared from her face. If I leave her alone, she’ll really stab her.

"Stop it, Clementine!"

There’s no point in having her get stabbed at the entrance. Why don’t we talk it out in a different room.

"My village is in a predicament right now."

Nojico is mixed in words of condemnation as she prattled on intensely to me.

"Your majesty has certainly promised the villagers who have risked their lives to fight for you as volunteer soldiers, have you not? You said that you would give us preferential treatment! But we have gotten nothing!"

It’s impossible to talk to a woman in this state. I try to remember what Shaela told me about what a girl truly wants, but right now, she probably just wants to vent out all her pent up frustrations to me. And the thing that she wants to tell me afterwards would have to be something that she has prepared considerably for.

"Tell me straight up. Are you going to help us? Or not?"

I let out a single sigh. Clementine is appealing to me with her eyes to just chase her away, but I can’t just do that. In fact, when I listened to Nojico’s story, she said the villagers from many villages came to her and complained about life hardship.

"I’ll help you. What do you want to do?"

This time it’s Suzy’s turn to sigh.

"Nojico. I honestly forgot, but right now I will fulfill the agreement. Is that fine with you?"

"I’ll give you a break."

She says that while taking her clothes off.

"Is this a farewell gift?"

"Nope, it’s the proof of our contract. I’m giving it to you now."

Nojico, who gets naked in front of Clementine and Suzy looks at me, as if asking me what she should do. The other two girls have their mouths hanging open.

When I try to lay her down sideways on the sofa, she resists me.

"Wait, I don’t mean for you to make love to me. That’s why you don’t have to be gentle. I just want you to take my virginity."

"As for me, I want the both of us to get excited though."

"No good, that will be after you have helped everyone."

Seeing as it can’t be helped, I put my hands on the sofa. I can’t say my cock was ready for this sudden development so it wasn’t that energetic. But it might be just right to screw a woman who hasn’t been turned on yet. If I were to force my cock into her in its peak condition, then Nojico’s genitals would break.

"Alright, break it."

Nojico is breathing hard and waiting for my next action nervously.
