Chapter 73

〈 Chapter 73 〉 How to Steal the Woman of the 72nd Extra (21)

"...What is this, where am I?"

His name is Lorian.

He was the man who led the plot to rape Lena.

The place where he found himself was a battlefield strewn with corpses.

The dead ranged from humans to demons.

"Shit... Is, is anyone there!?"

He had not gone to war due to his position as the heir.

However, this caused his position as heir to become increasingly precarious.

Such was Lorian...

"Damn it, I was going to expose the corruption of the hero soon! Why am I here!?"

He had intended to use the information he had obtained by chance to establish his position, which had been weakened by not participating in the war.

With the hero gone.

But he was certain that the war would be won.

"Now is the time... The Demon King doesn't seem like much. If I announce it now, I can take advantage of the confusion to hold the nobles who led the war accountable, which would greatly improve my position... Heh heh..."

The war had started on a flimsy pretext.

He planned to shift the blame for the war onto the nobles who had led it and elevate his own status for not participating.

"Heh heh... Idiots, you don't have to fight the war brute-force. You need to use your head... Huh? What's that...?"

While searching for people, Lorian's eyes caught sight of someone in elaborate armor.

"Where are you from? Well, if I tell them my identity, they'll rescue me, right?"

As he approached, he noticed the unique appearance.

"...? Pink hair? Feron?"

The pink hair was a characteristic of the Feron family.

The knight, who had sensed his presence, turned to face him.

With his helmet off, his long pink hair flowing, he was crying.

"Lena de Feron?"

She was a woman who exuded dignity and grace even amidst the corpses.

She spoke to Lorian.

"...It was you."

"...? You recognize me? Yes, I am the heir of the Betel Kingdom..."

"You spread false rumors that led to the deaths of our soldiers."

"What, what! I, I haven't announced it yet! No, that's not it!"

"...Did you do such cruel things and even try to attack me?"

"No, that's not it!"

Despite the illogical situation, Lorian could only feel the chill of Lena de Feron's killing intent.

They were the only two left in a field of cold, lifeless bodies.

Lena de Feron pointed her long sword at Lorian.

"For every soldier of our nation who suffered... I'll make sure you can't think of women!!!"

"Kaaaaa!"

The tip of Lena de Feron's sword lunged towards Lorian's groin.

***

"...What, is there really such a crazy guy?"

"Even the Demon King probably didn't know, nya."

While heading to the guest room with Beatrice as the morning sun rose, I heard a few stories from her.

One of the heirs from the Betel Kingdom had obtained the old woman's documents and spread the rumors.

It was surprising.

Lena had patched up the crumbling resistance army after the hero disappeared.

But the trust she had barely managed to restore was completely shattered by one man's greed.

'Are the people in Betel all such idiots...?'

[In every world, there are such people. It's just a good example of how much a series of unfortunate events can cause a significant impact.]

'So, Lena went through all this trouble to help such people...'

The world Lena was trying to create was one with a bright future for humanity.

Yet, she was being destroyed by such people.

I felt a bit of pity.

I stroked Beatrice's head and praised her.

"Thank you for helping me today."

"Hehe, can I hug you, nya?"

"Sure, go ahead!"

Beatrice jumped and hugged me.

I was the one who should be grateful.

'She's really cute...'

[Her abilities are helpful. I think it would be beneficial to take her with us in the future, but it's a bit unfortunate.]

The task I gave her was simple.

To burn incense in the rooms where the men were staying and enter their dreams.

The situations in the men's dreams varied, but the outcome was the same.

A dream where XX was endlessly violated.

(XX: ...What a damn devil.)

Is that the end when his groin is violated?

No.

A new groin would regenerate and be violated again, in an endless cycle.

I used a strong sedative to prevent them from accidentally waking up from the dream.

Beatrice's level in dream invasion was only 1, but she excelled in physical endurance.

She would enter the dream, get kicked out, and immediately re-enter, without getting tired all night.

All the men except the kid...

According to Beatrice, the men who were finished were convulsing, with semen and urine streaming down their beds.

The dream invasion left a strong impression, and I thought they might wet themselves just by being near Lena for a while.

When I hit Lena's butt, it felt so real.

And what I did was enter the women's dreams.

In their dreams, I just stood there, summoning the men.

The men's consciousnesses were left to their own devices.

But when it actually started, even I, who usually avoid rape, felt excited.

I even wanted to participate.

Moreover, even after I left one dream and went to another woman, the dream continued.

Once the dream started, it would continue infinitely, even if I went to do something else.

I think the heightened libido from today also played a role.

The bed was drenched in vaginal fluid and urine, completely overwhelming the scent of the incense.

'Quite effective...'

[Given the nature of dream invasion, they will remember it clearly, but whether it will last until the next plan is questionable.]

'It has to work... For the kid's sake... Heh heh...'

Now, the key is whether the last remaining plan will succeed.

***

"...Ha."

Lena sat on the bed, feeling melancholic as she greeted the morning sun.

Lena, who had been in close contact with the Holy Water all day, had desperately hoped he would come to her at night.

She was happy just to be in his arms.

She cleaned herself as much as possible before going to bed.

Despite the lack of a sedative, she fell asleep immediately.

But when Lena opened her eyes, she was greeted by the bright morning sun.

The bright sunlight, which had been a source of hope, now made her feel even more depressed.

"...Well, I should be grateful for how he treated me yesterday."

Lena smiled bitterly, put on her maid uniform, and opened the door to find Verius standing there.

"Princess!"

"...What is it?"

Lena felt a sense of relief seeing Verius.

If it had been the Holy Water visiting her like yesterday, she would have felt uncomfortable, but she was already in a depressed state.

Verius continued, with a guilty expression.

"I, I have something to tell you..."

"Yes, what is it?"

"The, the key... that man stole it!"

"..."

Lena had already figured it out.

She knew that the Holy Water had used Verius's key to sneak into her room.

But that was no longer important.

Ironically, she felt grateful to Verius for this.

"That, that guy snuck into your room and did something strange!"

"I know."

"...? No, I mean, the guy who visited this time!"

Verius, thinking Lena didn't understand, continued to explain.

He tried to explain that the man had broken into the princess's room and done something.

Lena listened quietly and spoke.

"I understand what you're saying."

"I'm sorry, Princess... That guy threatened me... But I couldn't take it anymore!"

Lena interrupted Verius.

"I already know he has been visiting my room."

"...? What, what do you mean...?"

"I am serving him. It's only natural that I serve him at night as well."

"Er... Princess... What...?"

Verius couldn't understand what he was hearing.

Lena warned him quietly.

"Please avoid visiting in the morning, in case he comes."

"...Yes... Yes."

"Thank you."

Lena left the dejected Verius and headed to the guest room.

..

..

On her way to the guest room, Lena noticed something different.

The behavior of the male nobles.

As soon as they saw her, they fled in fear.

"...?"

It was confusing, but she thought it was actually more convenient since they weren't bothering her as usual.

When she arrived at the guest room, loud noises were coming from inside.

(Please, I beg you!)

(Sniff... We can't go on like this...)

(I'll do anything... Please...)

Lena covered her eyes with one hand and endured the headache.

"Ha... Are you all in your right minds?"

The voices of the women inside were familiar.

They were appealing to the Holy Water, and the content was obvious.

'...I'll go in first.'

Knock, knock, knock.

Lena knocked on the door, and a man's voice came from inside.

"Come in."

When Lena opened the door and entered, the women in maid uniforms were kneeling before the Holy Water, begging.

'...Oh my.'

Lena couldn't bear to see their behavior.

But she decided that it was her responsibility to sort out the situation.

"What are you all doing, showing such disrespect!"

"T, that's...!"

The women were flustered by Lena's reprimand.

But the one who stopped her was the Holy Water.

"It's okay, A."

"But...?"

"By the way, weren't you tired yesterday? You can rest today."

"..."

Lena felt the Holy Water's consideration as a wound.

'...Today is the last day.'

She knew he would leave tomorrow.

Lena had prepared to end her life after spending one last day with him.

But since it was his order, she decided to follow it.

"Understood."

"Okay, get some rest~"

"...Yes, thank you."

Lena walked to her room with a weak step.

***

'I expected it to have an effect...'

[If a group of people have the same dream, they will have to believe it, no matter how unbelievable.]

The women who had the rape dream all night came to me as soon as they woke up in the morning.

They desperately begged me.

The manipulation of the dream seemed to have a significant effect.

'Just by changing the location, they thought it would last for months...'

[It's a really useful skill.]

Low resistance to magic, low mental strength.

They were excellent practice subjects.

But the problem was that they were limited to this place.

The humans here were mentally weakened, making it easy to proceed.

After sending Lena back, I calmed them down.

"It's just a dream, right? Why are you making such a fuss...?"

"No! The men, they were definitely plotting something! And it backfired on us..."

"...? Plotting?"

"T, that's...!"

The women, in their urgency, began to speak about the plots they had overheard from the men.

I already knew but pretended not to.

"Bad guys, huh."

"Y, yes! To do such things to Princess Lena..."

"We tried to stop them, but we were threatened..."

They were lying...

They had ignored it when they heard it, but now that it was happening to them, they were begging for help, even at the cost of their pride.

But I couldn't be harsh on them.

"But Lena will be fine."

"Really? Aren't you worried about Princess Lena?"

My words made the women look at me with hopeful faces, as if they had found a savior.

I wasn't sure if they were genuinely worried or hoping for something else.

But I shattered their hopes.

"I'm taking her with me, so you don't need to worry."

"..."

The women in the guest room looked at me with despair and suddenly started crying.

"Please, take me with you too!"

"Please, take me with you!"

"Move! I can do anything!!"

I laughed at their behavior.

"Where do you think I'm taking you?"

"Anywhere is fine! Please, I beg you!"

"No, do you even know where I'm going...? And I can only take two right now..."

"Sniff... I can do anything! Please..."

"Try to calm down..."

It took me about 10 minutes to calm the women down.

'Good, this should be enough.'

I thought I had a solution and suggested something.

"First, you don't want to be violated by the men, right?"

"Yes! Please, we... Sniff..."

I took a wooden box from under the bed.

"...?"

The noblewomen carefully watched my actions, not wanting to upset me.

I opened the box and showed them the contents.

They looked at the contents for a while, then looked at me, tilting their heads.

"...Underwear...?"
