## Chapter 722 – Paladin Kim Kat
I suddenly had a dream.
I don’t usually dream much these days, but I suddenly realized I was dreaming.
“… “
I was standing in a pitch-black space.
It was a landscape similar to when I wore the circlet and sank into my inner world. It was a familiar place, so I didn’t think much of it.
“What the hell?”
—Fwoosh!
Suddenly, an orange flash exploded. Turns out, it was just a light turning on.
—Sofa.
What I saw in the now somewhat brighter world was a plush-looking sofa. There was a dark figure sitting on it, and when I looked closely, it was Vugal.
“Vugal!”
“Friend!”
Uncharacteristically delighted, I immediately ran to Vugal, who jumped up from the sofa, grinning and stretching out his arms.
“You son of a bitch, what’s this! You’re even in my dream!”
“I missed you so much, friend, I just had to come out!”
“Hehehe, you son of a bitch!”
—Poke, poke.
Instead of hugging Vugal, I expressed my joy by deeply poking his ribs, abdomen, and chest with my fingers.
“Ah, ah. Ahhh. Hey, hey. Stop, stop. It hurts. It hurts.”
“Ehehey.”
His dark body felt like rubber or latex. Every time I poked it with my finger, my flesh sank deep in. But Vugal wasn’t human, he was a demon. It wouldn’t be strange if his body was weird.
“Anyway, it’s been a while, Vugal.”
After poking him to my satisfaction, I offered a handshake.
“Ugh… Yeah, it’s been a while, friend.”
Vugal, who had been cowering for a moment, straightened himself up and cleared his throat.
“But why did you come out like this?”
Why did he suddenly appear in my dream? Vugal would occasionally show up to encourage me, but this was the first time he had appeared in a dream like this.
You know, I sometimes saw his reflection in the blade.
“I just… missed you.”
Vugal replied shyly.
“Missed me?”
“Thanks to my friend’s fusion-Confucianism, I became a holy sword and awakened to true justice. My friend is my benefactor. I always wanted to meet you again. So, there’s no reason to miss you, right?”
“Vugal…!”
This bastard!
“You’ve really turned over a new leaf!”
“Of course!”
Vugal puffed out his chest and smiled shyly.
“It’s not just that I’ve turned over a new leaf. I came to encourage you because it seems like my friend is really walking the right path of fusion-Confucianism!”
“You son of a bitch…!”
Vugal knew that I was walking the right path of fusion-Confucianism…!
“Thank you! But haven’t you done that once in a while?”
“That was indirect.”
“I guess so.”
Anyway, I sat on the sofa with Vugal and leaned back.
Vugal was my true friend. Although our first meeting wasn’t good, he was eventually moved by my justice and became a holy sword.
He was even enhanced once.
He’s my comrade.
Seeing him affirm me like this meant that the path I had walked was not wrong. That’s why I was able to gain strength.
“Damn. Still, it’s so funny to meet again after so long. You’ve been a great help, Vugal. Thanks to you, I’ve been able to kill powerful enemies and evil beings. But I almost lost my mind to the Rare Metal Sword once, but honestly, that couldn’t be helped.”
“Oh, friend. I understand. Because I am your holy sword.”
“Hehehe, right? You’re my friend after all.”
—Pow! Pow!
I became proud to have such a friend and pounded Vugal’s back indiscriminately.
“Ugh… Ack… Anyway…! I’m really glad to meet you like this, friend.”
“Me too.”
I had a leisurely dream for the first time in a while.
I guess it was a sense of peace of mind.
—Thud, thud.
That’s when it happened.
“Surely you haven’t forgotten about meeeeee?”
“No, you’re Mersin!”
Mersin was approaching from the front…!
“You son of a bitch, what are you doing here!”
“Is there any reason I shouldn’t be heeeere?”
“No! Come and sit down!”
“Okayyyyy.”
So I sat down with my close friends Vugal and Mersin on either side of me. My heart swelled and I almost burst into tears. I shoved my fist into my mouth and swallowed the tears that were welling up.
“Ugh, ugh.”
It would have been nice if Bulverza had come too.
“It’s good to see your faces after so long.”
Seeing them again made me feel so comfortable. Their souls were with me. The beings I had killed. And thus, the beings who became my strength and my friends.
I was so proud that it was touching.
But Vugal and Mersin appeared?
…Could it be that I could also meet Sir Newton or the legendary Wright brothers?
“Hey. I’m waiting because I’m going to eat an apple.”
—Crunch.
“Have you been looking for me, Kim Kat?”
—Jingle, jingle.
At that moment, a voice was heard from behind the sofa.
“Y-you are…!”
I hurriedly shook off Vugal and Mersin and looked back.
“…!”
Coming from behind was Sir Newton, munching on an apple, and the Wright brothers, riding in a one-person mini airplane, pedaling away!
—Thump, thump!
Seeing them, I stood up in a frenzy of joy.
—Thump.
And then I woke up.
“… “
I saw that the bedroom was still dark.
Was it just the end of dawn?
“… “
“… “
My women, scattered on either side of me and above me, were breathing quietly as they slept. As usual, I had been sleeping buried in their flesh.
“…Damn it, what a bullshit dream.”
What the hell kind of dream was that? Was it because I was troubled by the Paladin’s death? It felt ominous to have Vugal and Mersin appear in my dream for no reason.
I should be careful today.
Even though they’re friends, their essence is demons and criminals.
“Ugh.”
I carefully slipped out from between my wives.
Ari was fast asleep, probably tired.
There was no need to wake her.
—Papat!
—Boongtzz, boongtzz!
As I came down from the bed and stretched for a moment, Winia woke up.
“…Blackie?”
“Winia? Why are you up so early?”
“…I have to go to the library today to return the books.”
“Ah. You haven’t returned them since you borrowed them.”
The books she had borrowed last time had not yet been returned. I heard that Risha and Winia had read them all while riding in the carriage.
“Is that why you woke up early?”
“Yeah… The due date is close. I think it’s today or tomorrow, so I have to return them quickly to borrow new books.”
“Then let’s do that. We can wake up Risha and go.”
—Grasp.
I immediately stroked Risha’s plump buttocks and tried to wake her up.
“Risha. Let’s go to the library.”
“Ugh… I can’t get up…”
“Hehehe, you can’t get up?”
“You two go…”
I can’t help it.
“Then Winia. Let’s take a shower together.”
“Take me there quickly.”
“Come here.”
I immediately picked up Winia and went down to the first floor bathroom.
* * *
Perhaps because it had rained the day before, the streets were quite cool. And although it wasn’t raining, there were dark clouds everywhere, making it generally dark. Nevertheless, there were quite a few pedestrians.
“Hehehe, it’s been a while since we’ve been out together.”
“Giggle. It has.”
I headed to the library with Winia on my back.
Thanks to her, there was no problem entering the library. It would be nice if religious people could just enter. The church should raise its voice on this issue.
Anyway, I went inside and picked out a book.
“Winia. Is there anything Risha specifically asked you to borrow?”
“Yeah. I heard her say it last time. She wanted me to borrow a book about the Demon World or Hell… I have to find that first.”
“The Demon World and Hell… I don’t remember seeing a religion-related corner. I doubt there would be a book about Hell.”
Was the Demon World a world belonging to an external dimension like Hell?
According to what I heard from the Saintess, it is now completely cut off, making it impossible to travel back and forth. Before it was cut off, there were quite a few incidents, such as invasions by demons led by the Demon King.
I’m glad it’s cut off.
It’s best not to see those bastards forever.
“I think there was one. Then Blackie, let’s go find it.”
“Okay.”
I immediately searched the library with Winia.
Looking at the information board, I found something similar, so I managed to find it somehow. There may not be religious books, but there are books about Hell?
I don’t know.
“Is there anything you want to borrow, Blackie?”
“Me? I think I’ll borrow something similar to what I borrowed last time.”
“A lewd book?”
Winia narrowed her eyes and said.
“Hehehe, yeah. A lewd book.”
“Blackie. You already have seven women, and you’re going to borrow a lewd book? Me and the others do everything for you. Is it not stimulating enough?”
“No, that’s not it. I’m just borrowing it to see what the culture is like in the capital. You can only find out about the culture and atmosphere of the capital by looking into things like that.”
“Hmph… If you say so…”
Hearing that, Winia, who had been looking at me with suspicion for a moment, nodded.
“Then I’ll sit over there and look at the books. Come back quickly.”
“Okay!”
So I went up to the 5th floor like last time.
I definitely met a woman with green hair there. The book she recommended was quite to my liking. I should go and thank her if she’s there.
But there’s a higher chance she won’t be.
“… “
But when I went, she was really there.
This time, she was wearing a hood and holding a book, concentrating on it. I approached her quietly to express my gratitude and greeted her.
“What are you looking at?”
“…!”
Surprised, she grabbed the hood tightly and turned to look at me.
Last time, the hood fell off and revealed her face, so is she being careful about that?
“Oh, you are…”
After a moment, the woman raised her finger as if she recognized me.
“Yes. I enjoyed the book you recommended last time. I was wondering when I would be able to thank you, but here we meet.”
“…Ah.”
The surprised look disappears.
“That’s right. Did you have a good time?”
Her eyes became calm as she straightened the hair under her hood. But a good time? Was she asking if I jerked off? Of course, my women took care of the hard-on I got from reading the book.
“In its own way. The descriptions were good.”
“The descriptions were good… Was it the Desert Dancer you took?”
“Yes? How did you know?”
“Because it was empty.”
It was empty?
Ah.
“Don’t tell me you memorized everything on the bookshelf?”
“You could say that.”
She memorized all the red books on the bookshelf!
“You must like it a lot.”
“I like it. A lot.”
“Then do you have a recommendation for today?”
“Hmm…”
After touching her lips for a moment, she scanned the fifth shelf from the bottom of the bookshelf and pulled one out and handed it to me.
“This?”
“Oh, a recommendation right away.”
I took it and checked the title.
「The Big-Breasted Archmage Who Became a Boob Slave」
What the hell.
“… “
But it’s interesting.
“The title is very stimulating.”
“It’s definitely stimulating. Titles are important for books like that.”
“Is that so? But looking at it, this lewd book culture seems to be a bit open. There are many books about Saintesses and Princesses.”
“It’s not legally a problem. And Saintesses, Princesses, and Archmages are popular subjects, right?”
That’s true.
“They are noble women. And they seem to pick the Three Beauties of the Kingdom? Seeing how well that’s advertised, it seems like it would sell well.”
“The Three Beauties of the Kingdom, you knew about that?”
She tilted her head slightly and said.
“I’ve only heard rumors. Now that I’m in the capital, I want to see them.”
“Really? Which one is your type?”
“My type, I don’t know their faces, so I can’t choose.”
“Decide based on a professional feeling.”
“I’m reluctant to answer because it feels disrespectful.”
I’m voting for the Saintess.
She’s as beautiful as she is confident.
And she has a good body.
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Anyway, thank you for the book recommendation. If I see you again, I’ll let you know my thoughts.”
“I’m looking forward to that. Read it properly and tell me.”
“Yes. You recommended it, so I have to.”
“Then have a good time.”
“Hehehe, thank you.”
I took the book and went downstairs.
But she told me to read it properly? Does that mean she’s confident in what she recommended? Well, I know the psychology of someone who likes books.
She recommended a book that she highly values to others.
Of course, she would want them to read it properly.
Anyway, she was a friendly woman. Is reading lewd books her only hobby? She doesn’t seem like a bad person.
“Winia. I borrowed it.”
I immediately showed Winia the book I had borrowed.
“…The Big-Breasted Archmage Who Became a Boob Slave? Blackie? What’s it about?”
Winia looked at me with a dumbfounded expression.
Well, the title is a bit much.
“It’s about a big-breasted archmage who is kidnapped, loses her powers, and is imprisoned underground, where her breasts are fondled forever.”
“Aww. I’ll have to do that to your chest when we get back, right?”
Winia suddenly looked at me with a pitiful expression and touched my cheek.
Good. Today, when I get back, I’ll skip training and play with Winia’s chest all day.
“Hehehe, really? Ah. That’s so good.”
“What’s so good about it! You pick out weird stuff like that! I’ll do everything, boob slave or whatever, so that book is forbidden, forbidden!”
Winia suddenly shouted.
“Wi, Winia! Quiet, quiet!”
“Ah…!”
“Anyway, I want both.”
“…Seriously, you’re such a pervert.”
“What else can I do, I’m a man. Then Winia, I can play with your chest as much as I want when we get back?”
“Suck them or rub them, do whatever you want. You really love boobs, Blackie.”
“Yay.”
No training today, hell yeah!!!
I borrowed some books and came out of the library. The weather was threatening to rain. I guess I’ll buy some food at the bakery and confectionery and then go in.
“Winia. It looks like it’s going to rain, should we just buy some food and go back?”
“Yeah, that sounds good. Let’s do that.”
Both the bakery and the confectionery were in the capital, so the food was quite good. In the first place, there are no women who dislike sweets. Every time I come out like this, I sweep them up.
That’s when we entered the main street.
—Clatter.
—Clip-clop, clip-clop.
A procession of carriages appeared from the other side of the main street.
It was a very luxurious and large carriage. The horses pulling the carriage also looked expensive. But that wasn’t all.
“Maids?”
Dozens of maids followed the carriage, their hands clasped in a demure posture, their heads slightly bowed as they followed the carriage. They were orderly and disciplined.
It seemed like the nobles were going out in their carriages and the maids were seeing them off.
Why are they dragging dozens of attendants around?
They must be very rich nobles.
“Which noble is it?”
When I tried to ask Winia, she grabbed my wrist with her head bowed.
“…Blackie.”
“Hmm? Why?”
“Let’s go quickly.”
Go quickly?
Then she turned around and tried to enter the alley behind us.
Pulling my wrist.
“Oh. We have to go. But Winia. That’s just a maid army? Who are they?”
“…I don’t know. Let’s go quickly.”
“Okay, okay. But this isn’t the way to the bakery.”
“Let’s go around. No. Let’s go to the confectionery first.”
“Sure, why not.”
We’ll get there even if we go this way.
So I headed to the store with Winia.
