Conflict 3

If I were to weigh the hate I have for Christina’s personality against the happiness I can get from her butt, the latter would have an overwhelming victory. If I have to throw away my pride to have a chance at piercing through this girl’s hymen, then I will do so happily.

The scales quickly shifted in favour of Christina’s butt, launching the frustration I’ve felt with Christina high into the sky. It pierced through the clouds and eventually became one with the stars. It was completely blown away. I don’t even know why I was ever annoyed at Christina.

Even if I once said I’d prefer being abused by a woman, that’s no longer the case. For men in their thirties, the idea of inserting their tongues in a young girl’s butt would be the greatest achievement of their lives. Every man alive, from the CEO of a large organization to the lowest ranked employee, they’re all after a woman’s butt.

And there’s always the chance that you could mistakenly make your way into the other hole.

This is the world we live in.

“Fu~n…. Is this woman really that important to you?”

“If you’re asking whether or not I care about it her, then the answer would be yes. She’s an important friend to me.”

“What need could a powerful being like you have for a single human?”

“The days I’ve spent with her were enjoyable and I hope that there will be more days like that in our future.”

“….”

I could hear Ester-chan gasp.

I explicitly said that she was my friend, so I’m hoping she won’t take my words in any other way.

I kind of used Christina to cement that idea in Ester-chan’s mind.

A small sense of accomplishment formed in me.

“I don’t want to hear about your insignificant lives.”

“Then, what do you think about her?”

“She did a poor job of cleaning my backside with her tongue. She was too focused on your severed head to do a proper job. By the way, who did that to you?”

“Ah, I see.”

I’m sure if Ester-chan in her current sexually excited mood were to do it the loli dragon would be more than pleased. I’m sure it would be a very intense battle. If she didn’t have a certain ikemen named Allen waiting for her, I probably would fall in love with her after witnessing that.

“If so….”

I glanced around the surrounding area.

The Dark Elf was nowhere to be seen. Well, it’s definitely better that I don’t see her anywhere. However, despite what she did to me, her thick thighs and chest make me unsure if I would ever want her killed. And this conversation with the loli dragon is making me imagine what it would be like to bury my face in the Dark Elf’s butt.

“….”

Yes, dark meat is good too.

In fact, wouldn’t the best revenge I could take out on her be forcing her to serve as my slave. Someday I hope to have a slave that will listen to all of my commands. It’s only natural for a man to want that. I’d like to see her face when she’s forced to serve me.

That’s right. The loli only route isn’t necessary. The lolis could be the main dish while the Dark Elf could be the side.

This would help keeps things fresh for many years.

With that decided, I began to speak,

“It was the long-haired man standing next to that girl.”

I have no interest in the long-haired man’s meat so I have no issue with her killing him.

“You were defeated by that demon?”

“It’s shameful for me to admit, but he surprised me…..”

“Hou~?”

She glanced over at the long-haired man.

It reminded me of how she acted in her dragon form.

However, this form is so cute.

She’s annoying.

But cute.

She’s annoying.

But cute.

“Wait a minute! Th-That’s not what happened!”

The long-haired man got upset after hearing my words.

The fact that he’s an ikemen is just a bonus.

He’ll make good fodder for Christina.

The power difference between these two is clear.

I know she’ll be able to take care of him.

“I’ve really let my anger build up for quite some time now. You wouldn’t mind letting me indulge myself a little, would you?”

“….”

The long-haired man was visibly scared.

I guess that guy is also able to understand their difference in power.

He’s essentially a highly skilled martial artist that is now being confronted by the master of the dojo.

“Show me the power you used to kill that man.”

“Guh….”

Christina took one step closer.

In response, the long-haired man took a step back.

Just beyond the long-haired man, I could see Drill-chan looking nervously at her subordinate.

After seeing this, I suddenly remembered something.

“Time to eat….”

I grabbed onto the loli dragon’s hair before she could jump forward.

“Wait one moment please.”

“Fugya…!”

Her neck was pulled back at a sharp angle and she let out a strange yell.

Why do I feel like I would’ve just snapped her neck if she was human?

“What do you think you’re doing!?”

The loli dragon changed her target and aimed an attack at me.

Damn, if I take that attack head-on I’ll definitely die.

I quickly activated my recovery magic.

I shouldn’t underestimate her just because she now has a cute appearance. She’s still Christina inside. If I plan on interacting with her at all, I should always have my recovery magic at the ready. The attack the Dark Elf used to cut off my head was weaker than the power this loli is putting into her punch.

“Gu….”

A second after my body began to glow, Christina’s fist connected with my stomach.

As expected, the moment her fist connected with me, my flesh was torn from my body and blood poured down past my waist.

The flesh on my hands and feet was ripped open and a pool of blood began to form at my feet.

My consciousness was starting to fade.

Darkness began to eat away at the edge of my field of vision.

“….”

However, I was okay.

I seemed to have survived her attack by using a massive amount of MP to heal myself. From everyone else’s perspective, it must look like I just pressed rewind on a video causing me to regain my original shape.

Seeing my skin slowly stitch itself back together caused several emotions to rise up in me. I almost completely lost consciousness there and was greeted by that grotesque sight when I regained my composure.

I don’t know how long this all lasted, but it was probably longer than it seemed to me.

“….”

My heart is beating so fast. If I had been a second slower just now I’d be dead. Besides that, most of the clothing I was wearing above the waist has been destroyed.

Thankfully, my pants are safe this time. My dignity has been maintained for now. Though, I won’t lie and say I wouldn’t proudly show off myself in front of Ester-chan and Sophia-chan.

“…tch, you’ve already recovered.”

“Why’d you attack me so suddenly? As usual, you’re nothing but a rude dragon….”

“So what if I am?”

“If you attack me again, I’ll respond without any hesitation. I won’t warn you again.”

“Tch….”

I showed her my best poker face while saying this.

I don’t feel like getting repeatedly punched by someone with a four-digit level.

The long-haired man shuddered after witnessing this series of events.

“Wha–… You completely n-nullified an attack from a dragon!?”

He was dumbstruck.

Following this, the big-breasted loli next to him fell into dismay.

“W-Wait a minute, aren’t you supposed to be a high-ranked demon!?”

“No, it’s just that…. Master, that person is…..”

Oh, it seems that guy is becoming scared of me.

This has provided me with some time to think about our situation.

The territory she rules over neighbours Ester-chan’s territory. I have no way of knowing how long her reign her will last. It could end tomorrow or last another forty years. The one thing I do know is that I want Ester-chan to be able to govern in peace for as long as possible.

If we remain at war with the Penny Empire, Ester-chan will be forced to remain in Tricklis and will never have time to go to school. That’s not good for a girl her age. School is important. If you don’t go to school you won’t be able to become a decent member of society.

And that’s why, currently, our relationship with Drill-chan is most important.

Even if we can never become friends, I just don’t want us to be enemies. This won’t just benefit us either. This will be good for both Tricklis and even the Penny Empire.

It’s entirely possible she may receive a demotion and if I am able to get her on my side now before she’s demoted, she’ll need me, even more, when she’s lost her rank. And with the lolibitch telling me she wants to have a child, I can use this as an opportunity to show her that we can just be friends. My motivation increased further.

“You must be the ruler of this city. Can you tell me your name?”

I asked this of Drill-chan.

There’s no doubt that she’s the ruler of this territory given the way she’s been acting.

“…it’s Doris.”

“I’ll be in charge of negotiations now. You can consider me an acting ambassador of the Penny Empire. I have several propositions that I’d like you to hear.”

I wanted to make things clear to the big-breasted loli.

Ambassador may have been a strong word, but I will have the noble mage here to help me out if I need it.

“Oi, what do you think you’re doing…?”

“Be quiet or I’ll turn you into a grilled dragon.”

“….”

I don’t know if she’s remembering the past trauma my fireballs caused her, but the moment I said that she fell silent.

The loli dragon had her turn.

It’s time for a human to take centre stage.

Although, when I acted more forceful, Christina immediately backed down. It’s possible that she actually has a rather weak personality.

“How do you plan on negotiating after that happened?”

Drill-chan pointed at the massive crater.

That must be the origin of the pillar of light I saw earlier.

Given that Christina is here, she’s certainly the source of that attack.

It’s hard for me to imagine the noble mage unleashing an attack like that on an enemy nation.

“I can completely understand why you’d feel that way. A massive amount of damage has been caused to your city. However, I’d like you to keep in mind that our two nations have already had a series of conflicts and this can just be considered an escalation of the previous fighting.”

I looked towards Ester-chan as she nodded.

“Then, wh-what did you have in mind?”

“If things continue like this, neither of us stand to gain anything from it.”

“….”

“On a more personal level, I’d like us all to be friends. The territories you two control neighbour each other. I want us to be close enough that we’d be able to eat together once a month or so.”

“…what are you saying? Do you plan on making me cook food for you in a maid outfit?”

“That sounds like a great idea.”

A blonde big-breasted loli maid. I want to have sex with a maid like that very much.

But there’s no doubt this girl has done things with the long-haired man.

He’s clearly a masochist.

I’m sure she rewards him by letting him lick all over her.

I’m jealous.

I want to experience the big-breasted loli’s love.

“However, I wasn’t proposing you serve as a maid.”

T-Then what are you asking for!?”

“There’s only one thing I want.”

I held up one finger.

“An immediate solution to this conflict. As of right now, this conflict between our nations has yet to advance to an all-out war. Currently, only local lords have been involved in the fighting and I don’t want things to progress further than that. If we handle things ourselves, this entire conflict can end today.”

I glanced over at Ester-chan.

She nodded and allowed me to continue.

That’s good. She doesn’t want this conflict to continue either.

“The damage dealt to the Penny Empire has been minimal at this point. Both sides have entered a momentary rest period to recover after the recent skirmishes. Now is the perfect time for you to send an emissary to Tricklis and begin peace talks. If possible, it would be best if you went personally.”

“Are you asking me to surrender unconditionally?”

“No, that’s not the case.”

“…then, what are you saying?”

“I don’t care for all of this pointless fighting. If you agree to begin the peace talks, I can promise that a certain annoyed dragon will never descend upon your city again. Do you understand?”

“….”

“Otherwise, we’ll both have to destroy your entire country.”

“Wha–”

Drill-chan puffed her cheeks out.

The fact that the long-haired man gets to play with such a cute girl is beyond cruel.

“I’m sure you’ve already realized this, but there’s very little you can do to stand against us. Whatever you’re thinking now, know that the next words that come out of your mouth may very well determine whether you survive this day. And are you really willing to give your life for your country?”

“….”

Drill-chan was clearly worried as she began to speak.

‘I still have no guarantee that you won’t just attack the Penny Empire at a later time.”

“If we were to attack you now, do you think you’d be able to defend yourself?”

“That’s….”

“You understand your position, don’t you?”

“….”

It seems like she’s listening.

I’ve been keeping up a brave face this entire time, and now I’m hoping she’ll just accept it. The noble mage has yet to say anything, so he must be like everyone else. Nobody here stands to gain anything by continuing this conflict.

I’ve had my fill of aimlessly fighting on the frontlines. As soon as I return home, I want to eat a delicious meal with Sophia-chan. It’s also been too long since I last saw Edita Sensei’s panties.

I have much more important things to do than to waste my time with such a frivolous war.

“Do you agree?”

“…on one condition.”

Drill-chan said this and took one step forward.

“Doris, do you not understand the position you’re in?”

Ester-chan yelled.

“Of course I do! I am Doris, the Baroness of Ahan! If you are threatening the lives of my people, I will do whatever I can to stop you! Even if it seems futile and we must retreat, we’ll burn every town, every home, and every field on our retreat! We won’t leave even a single weed behind that the Penny Empire could find a use for!”

And the big-breasted loli got so worked up that her drills were frantically whipping around.

The way her drills behave is just majestic.

“I have an obligation to protect the lives of my people!”

“Even at the cost of your own life?”

“Yes, of course! But if it looks like I may lose, I’ll put all of my efforts into making a great escape!”

“…i-is that so.”

She tried to say something cool but couldn’t help but let her real intentions slip out.

She has a rather straightforward personality.

I can sense how desperate she has become.

“How about we act as if everything that’s happened between us has been due to the positions our two warring countries have put us in. You can tell anyone that asks that that huge crate behind you was caused by a rampaging dragon that was completely unrelated to our visit here.”

“…and who’s going to pay for the damages?”

Drill-chan looked down at the ground with a sad expression on her face.

I feel bad looking at her.

But I don’t have the money to cover that.

“If you have any complaints, you can take them up with her directly. That has nothing to do with me.”

“…what? Is there something you wanted to ask me?”

“….”

Christina’s intimidating gaze swept across everyone gathered here.

Drill-chan stepped away from the loli dragon.

The long-haired man also had nothing to say.

I can’t say that I’m glad she’s here, but the loli dragon has been useful.

“Now then, everything should be settled.”

Before anyone could object, I quickly ended the negotiations. Luckily, no one seemed to disagree. However, the two rulers of these bordering territories remained glaring at each other.

“…I won’t forget this, Liz.”

“Fu~n, isn’t that my line, Doris?”

The two non-virgin lolis had an intense staredown.

Neighbours shouldn’t be fighting one another.

Despite everything that happened, it seems we were on our way to resolving this conflict once and for all.
