Myla was a heiress of a noble family, Hyuutia and she was formidable in wielding sword and shield. This blond haired woman was wounded and lying on her bed. I was lacking of fighting power at the moment due to her absence. I couldn't risk her fighting as she was one of my lover. 

Another formidable fighter at my disposal was Irijina, the tall girl who fought using spear. She was also my lover. However, the civil war of Orlais state was imminent and the factions we were supporting was lagging behind the enemies in term of military strength. 

Speaking of tall girls, I called for my another lover for help. The tall and wheat skinned beauty, Sekrit. She fought using acrobatic style with sword. Our only concern was her bloodthirsty nature. Myla, a heiress of aristocratic family, who emphasized on chivalry had problem of dealing with the cruel Sekrit. I wonder if Myla could deal with her.

"His majesty. Are you sure about summoning Sekrit from faraway?"

I only smiled and caressed her cheek.

I was sitting on the bed that the wounded Myla was lying on while waiting for the single reinforcement who I expected to arrive today.

As I waited for Sekrit's arrival, I couldn't help but worry about the state of the civil war. The enemy faction was gaining ground, and if we didn't act quickly, we would lose everything we had worked so hard to achieve.

Myla, who was still recovering from her wounds, sat next to me, looking anxious. "I don't know if I can trust Sekrit," she said, her voice low. "She's a wild card, and we don't know what she'll do once she's here."

I nodded in agreement. Sekrit was a fierce fighter, but her bloodlust sometimes got the better of her, and she would often go too far in battle. However, I knew that we needed her help if we were to win this war.

Just then, we heard a commotion outside, and I knew that Sekrit had arrived. I got up from the bed and pushed down Myla who tried to follow me.

"Your majesty, is that Sekrit?" Myla asked and I nodded.

A woman whose navy coloured hair reached past her nape walked into the door.

"Hiro. It's been weeks since we met. I missed you..eh."

She immediately smirked when noticing the helpless Myla. Sekrit then leaned on the wall and teased, 

"Oo..the chivalrous woman fell victim to a poisonous arrow. Fufufu."

Myla seemed annoyed at Sekrit's words.

"Don't say that. She was wounded for saving my life." I said while caressing Myla's loose hair on the mattress.

Sekrit shrugged her shoulders and walked over to Myla. "No offense, milady. I'm just stating the truth," she said with a smirk. "But don't worry, I'm here to help."

Myla gave her a cold stare before turning her gaze to me. "Are you sure about this, your majesty?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

I nodded firmly. "We need all the help we can get, and Sekrit is one of the best fighters we have. Besides, I trust her," I said, placing a reassuring hand on Myla's shoulder.

Sekrit nodded in agreement. "He's right, milady. We need to work together if we want to win this war," she said, looking at Myla with a nonchalant expression.

Myla sighed, clearly not convinced but knowing that she had no other choice. "Very well. But I'll be keeping an eye on you, Sekrit," she said sternly.

Sekrit just laughed it off. "Suit yourself, milady," she said, twirling her sword in her hand.

Clarice de Dousy invited me to her bedroom and treated me to soup while we talked. 

"I know you don't drink alcohol. So, here's apple juice. Let me pour some for you."

She placed a full glass in front of me without waiting for my response.

"Your hair is so fluffy and pretty. Will you let me stroke it?"

Her silent nod provided me with consent to gently brush through her slightly wet hair. It seemed she just finished bathing.

"So pretty…… just like silk."

I purely focus on her hair, not touching anywhere else.

My eyes on the other hand wander to her breasts and legs in her lightly-dressed state.

Suddenly, the girl burst out with a semi-suppressed laugh. Did I do something funny?

"You’re looking too much at my boobs and thighs. And also your…… fufu."

I looked down and realize my bulge was about to tear through my pants. I guess that’s pretty pathetic of me.

"Whoops, my bad. It’s because you’re too sexy."

The other reason was because I could see her nipples on her breasts from peeking down the gap in her chest.

She breathed a sigh of relief and took another gulp of juice.

"I am grateful for your help. Without you, my family would be hard-pressed."

I quickly picked her back up when she lowered herself to the ground.

Having a noble heiress prostrate before me was not my thing.

"Don't..you are one of my women after all."

She furrowed her eyebrows when I said that before glancing at the entrance of the room. She said,

"The girls outside...they are your lovers too?"

"Yes."

"Womanizer."

"No. I am just practicing polygamy."

She giggled and nestled up against me as she finished her sentence.

"I’ll be in your care now, master."

She leaned coquettishly against my shoulder and rested her hand on my thigh.

The breath against my skin and her fawning upward gaze…… as expected of a lover, she knew how to please another man. Knowing that, it’s still a man’s duty to return the favor and be happy.

"Yeah, I’ll treasure you. ……by the way, it’s fine if you act as my lover at this very moment, right?"

When I looked into Clarice’s eyes, she gave me a smile.

Now I wanted to fondle her.

And then penetrated her as well.

"Let’s go to bed. I’ll also make you feel――"

Before I could finish, Mirai appeared in the room. How convenient the teleportation skill.

"Hiro-sama! Gosh, embracing another unknown woman…… I mean, now’s not the time!"

"Baron Jimi sent you a request for backup! It looks like he’s under attack!"

"Huh? Is he a vassal of Doucy."

Attack or not, that guy’s territory is northwest to Chevin and he is under Doucy original faction who remained loyal.

Who would be attacking?

"Well, it’s the neighboring feudal lord…… it appears he’s being attacked by Baron Joelo. Anyways, come right away to the office!"

Mirai gave Clarice a glare before running out.

"Dispatch orders have been given!"

"Get your squad together as fast as possible! Commanders, call back your off-duty soldiers!"

Lothair de Doucy, Clarice's father gave an immediate response to the messenger sent by Baron Jimi requesting for support.

According to Leonhardt Strauch and Lothair de Doucy, Baron Joelo is a less prominent noble who shouldn’t have the military strength to engage the Baron Jimi.

However the messenger had said the force was s large enough to overwhelm him regardless of whether he joined up with other baronets who were still loyal to Doucy.

When it was explained how Baron Joelo was also in Saxon’s faction, albeit at the lower seat, even I could figure out the truth of the matter.

Had it been two hours since the order was first given?

The squad of 600 cavalry and 20 archers were ready to go.

The dalish girl, Gheyna and even the slut, Suzy had also shown up among the archers. 

Here’s a question for Leonhardt Strauch:

"If you were in Saxon’s faction, how many days do you think it would take for me to make my way there? That is assuming you don’t know our internal state of affairs."

"With how sudden the circumstances are, it would take a day to prepare and a day to march. So two days at the earliest."

Sending just the cavalry first to Baron Jimi’s territory would still take one day…… enough to set up something that can take them by surprise.
