171 Episode 171 "Since the meeting time has passed, I decided to secretly pick up my friends.".txt (1/2)

The next day, after receiving the Ritogon from the saint.

We had prepared the food using the dark warthog that we had killed during the hunt, and were preparing for the ”Welcome Party for Iris Rafilia”, but...

”...... no matter how late it is, it's too late.

The next night, Iris and Raphilia didn't show up.

They said they'd catch up with them as soon as they got the rest of their work done. Iris's position in the current Ilgafa Lordship family is better. The new lord, Royeld, respects her as well. She shouldn't be forced to rub it in.

Rafilia is there too, so if there's a little trouble, they should be able to get through it without any problems.

And yet, if you don't show up after the scheduled date, it's .......

...... It's still unnatural. Iris, you're the type of person who's hard on time.

But the magic circle is working just fine.

You'd better believe something's up. ......

Me, Cutlass and Cecil were staring at the magic circle we had drawn in the back room of the villa.

Rita, Aine and Leticia are all worried about Iris and the others.

Leticia, in particular, was looking forward to playing with Iris and the others, since she hadn't seen them much. She's kind of disappointed because it's been stretched out.

The saint said, ”I wonder if we're not there yet. Every time I see her, she looks at me excitedly and asks me if I have a new playmate yet.

I was looking forward to relaxing with the whole party too. ......

...... It's time to just wait and see.

Cutlass. Ask Fynn to activate the transition magic circle.

I said.

”If we make the transition today, they'll be home tomorrow, right? I'll come get Iris and Rafilia in person.

Which of you will be able to leave?

I don't like the idea of just waiting around, I'm just going to check on you two. You'll feel better if you know what's going on, right?

Yes, and you have .......

Cutlass nodded in agreement.

Now, please choose a guard from among us. Nagi-sama.

Then Cecil got into a posture of caution and told me

...... but escort?

It's fine. I'll be right there.

Unless you're walking back, the transition magic circle can return to Irgafa in an instant.

A day is all it takes to revive the magic circle, so I don't think it's anything dangerous.

''You know what, Nagi-sama?''

Cecil took my hand in his, looking up at my face up close.

'Nagi-sama is concerned about the late arrival of Miss Iris and Miss Raphilia, isn't she?

'Yeah. I'd be concerned if I didn't know what was going on.

It's for the same reason I'm worried about you, Nagi. Once the magic circle is used, it needs to be filled with magic power, so it will take some time before it can be reactivated. If something happens in the meantime, I can't help but think about .......

'But one day is enough to recharge your magic, right?

There are 24 hours in a day, you know?

Cecil squeezed my hand.

We will have to worry about Nagi all the time. I'm very confident. I wouldn't be able to eat if anything happened to her. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. I don't want my master to see the devastated look on my face.

......

So please, take one of your slaves as your bodyguard. Master.

Cecil kneels in front of me.

Cutlass does the same next to (and next to) him.

...... Surely you can understand how Cecil and his friends feel.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on it.

Once you've been transferred, you lose contact with them, so as a companion - a family member - you're worried about them.

Just like I worry about Iris and Rafilia.

'I get it. Then I'll ask Cecil and Cutlass to follow me as my bodyguard.

So, hopefully, you've chosen fairly there: ......

For some reason, Cecil's cheeks turned bright red and he shook his head.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new product or service. That ...... is more than enough for me. If I get any more than that, I'll be devastated by .......

......, right.

Our eyes met.

Somewhat embarrassed, me and Cecil looked down at each other.

Somehow I felt like I understood what Cecil was trying to say. It was extremely embarrassing, though. The Cecil's eyes glazed over as he put it into words, and he's holding his cheeks, chest and ...... belly.

I'm sure you'll be able to find the best way to get the most out of this.

I see. As I suspected, Ms. Arujidono is a wonderful person.

Suddenly, Cutlass clapped his hands with a plop.

'I see that you are giving a special reward to Cecil, the one who has been with you the longest!

'...... is yes. Nagi, you ...... gave me ...... to fulfill my desire.

'I see!　How virtuous of you to grant a maiden's wish!　I can see that a maiden like Cecile is being served with all her might!

............ no, I'm ...... no longer a virgin, I'm ...... that

'A reward so great that Cecildo would be grateful to be red to his earlobe like this. I'm very interested. I'd love to have the same thing for me!

Mr. Cutlass, too?

'Yes!　If possible, I would like Cecil and his wife to be by my side and watch over me so that I can receive it correctly from Arujidono!

Wow, I'll be ...... when Mr. Cutlass gets his ...... in front of Nagi.

I'm still a novice slave. Without being rude, I would like Cecil to show me in detail how to do this!

That's no way to go to ....... I've only been to ...... once, and I've only been to ...... once, and I mean that ......

Cecil's whole body turns bright red and starts to shake and shake.

''Wait a minute, Cutlass. Cecil is at the end of his rope...

Na, Nagi-sama!　Please don't pull my hand away. ...... I don't want you to touch me now. I've been in a whirlwind of activity in my head and remembered a lot of things: ......

'Wow. Cecil-dono, why are you collapsing heaving and falling down!　A certain someone!　Ladies and gentlemen. Something's happened to Cecil.

It was too late.

Or rather, I couldn't find the right time to get into it.

Cecil, who turned bright red, fainted in my arms, and Cutlass went to call Aine and the others in a hurry...

Before I knew it, Reggie and Fynn appeared on the ceiling, holding their cheeks and laughing.

That's why I've decided to draw lots to decide who will be my bodyguard.

The members of the ”Iris and Rafilia Welcoming Group” are three, including me.

I thought about going with all of us, but I'm afraid Iris might get worried about that.

So after a strict (including Leticia) lottery, the one chosen to be my bodyguard is.

''Haha, I got ............ right.

Cecil, who is still red-faced, and

I'm going to Ilgafa to do some shopping.

With my own bag in hand, Aine was ready to go.

'It can't be helped. I'm staying at home with Rita-san, Cutlass-san and Fynn-san.

Thank you. Letitia.

It's not that I really wanted to protect you, Nagi-san. I just didn't want to sit around and watch everyone else draw lots, that's all.

I'm in charge of the magic circle over here, sir.

Letitia and Cutlass are nodding at each other with their lottery tickets in hand.

Rita is...

...... I don't have much luck in the ponies.

He was sitting in the corner of the room, on his knees.

The beast ears are flattened and fallen, and the tail is stretched out on the floor with no effort.

No ...... you don't have to be that depressed.
