Chapter 20: Daily life (1/2)

*Clang* *Clang*

The sound of swords clashing against each other resonated in the hanging garden of the tower of babel.

In the middle of the clearing, two people were fighting with no hesitation, matching speed, strength and skills.

One of them, a young blonde haired boy, was sweating profusely, but still had a focused expression on his face as he evaded the blows and answered with his own.

The other, a blue haired young woman, clearly a little older than the boy, though not by much, had a much more relaxed expression.

Outside of what could be called the ring containing their fight, though it was just a circle drawn on the ground, girls wearing maid clothes were observing the fight with an entranced expression.

Normally, such an action would be uncouth as they had their work to do. But, Sol rarely punished them for such little mistakes.

He believed that an equal amount of stick and carrot should be given to one's own subordinate.

The maids weren't entranced by the swordplay, after all, even if they could use mana it did not mean that they could fight. No, what took away their attention was the sweating and nude upper body of their master.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Sol's body was perfect. Neither scrawny nor bulky. His muscles perfectly streamlined was the wet dream of many women.

Since the day of his orgy with the five maids dedicated to bathing him, those five didn't stop bragging about how good and attentive he was.

This brought great surprise to the more experienced in the castle. After all, in this world, sex was more of an act where a man let out his urge by using a woman. It wasn't quite as animalistic, but the men didn't see the pleasure of their partners as the first priority.

His popularity in the castle went up a notch after such things were explained and now, whenever he went out, they stared at him as if he was some meat on a chopping block.

It didn't help that Lilith promised a rather substantial reward for any girls he would take.

Sol, who failed to avoid a hit on his shoulder, gritted his teeth in order to hold the scream.

He didn't mind the way the girls looked at him. Though after having two or three more orgies with some of the other maids, he slowly lost interest in such activities.

Orgies were good and all, but he preferred the deep connection he could feel while going at it one on one.

This time, avoiding another blade, he rushed in, deciding to end the match, but the sword stopping close to his throat told him that his movements had already been read.

*Huff* *Huff* *Huff*

Rough sounds of breathing echoed before finally he lowered his blades in defeat.

”I lost again.”

Setsuna gave out a bitter smile as she ignored the scream of the girls in the background.

Bitterness because she knew those girls were basically in heat and were waiting to help Sol bath. It was so frustrating for her to not be able to reach the final line with him. Each time she had to remind herself that soon she would be able to forget all restraint.

But it wasn't the sole reason. Another reason for her bitterness was the dejected expression on Sol. Each time she saw it she had to hold the urge to punch him.

Her skills aside, she was a beast woman from the blue wolf race. Even without using mana, her strength and speed weren't something a young human should have been able to match even so slightly.

'Sooner or later he will understand how much a monster he is.'

He was growing more and more and soon, she would have a hard time holding back against him and would have to use her full power.

It wasn't like she didn't understand why he wasn't satisfied with his current strength.

Sol common sense was rather skewered because of the way he was raised. This made it so he didn't have a good understanding of what was average.

Even now, because of Lilith's order, she couldn't tell me everything and praise him wholeheartedly. After all, she was still officially a slave of the royal family.

'It does not matter. Soon, I will only have to answer to him.'

She still remembered all those years ago when she reached the peak of the gladiator arena, how this boy looked at her with sparkling eyes.

He did not have the greedy full of sick lust. But rather only admiration and curiosity.
