Chapter 77 – Catfight
Ozma’s unexpected fiance declaration.
It was probably an accidental act motivated by Gav’s marriage proposal, but from my point of view, it was just absurd.
Camilla, who was next to her, asked with a suspicious look, “Is it real?” I couldn’t help but feel unfair.
No, the person who knows best that Ozma and I aren’t like that then…
Anyway, Ozma’s lie was surprisingly eaten by Gav.
“Huh? Ozma, you’re engaged to Patlash?”
“Y-yes!”
“But I don’t think I’ve heard of you getting engaged for anything like that?”
“That’s because it was decided right before I came here!”
As Ozma said, he explained all of my recent achievements.
“Patrasch was recently dispatched to the eastern front and not only attacked the impregnable fortress of Hamburg, but he also single-handedly assassinated the Marshal of Hamburg who was guarding it!”
And when Gav heard about my performance, a deeper smile came to his lips.
“Then it’s even better. Isn’t it an ideal condition for leaving excellent genes to be a man who was marked as the son-in-law of the demon lord?”
“Oops!”
Ozma must have realized then that she had placed her self-infecting agent, so she backed away with a puzzled look on her face.
“An engagement is just an engagement, not a marriage relationship. And actually, I don’t really care about the second one. I don’t care about trivial titles such as a dragon’s vassal or concubine.”
“Gee!”
Ozma licks her lips, looking more impatient.
No, we’re not like that.
I decided to intervene at this point, as it seemed that the situation would go even worse if left alone.
“Hey, Gabriel-sama?”
Then Gav, who was arguing with Ozma, looked at me and smiled.
“Please call me Gabriel from now on. Gabriel feels very awkward among friends.”
“Ah, yes, Mr. Gabriel.”
Fortunately, we are still friends.
“I am very perplexed by this situation, but could you please explain something?”
“That’s not difficult.”
Hearing my request, Gav said, crossing his arms under his bulging pectoralis major.
“First of all, the Ma Dragons are very rare. Basically, not only do they have a small population, but if they mate with each other, they are genetically very close, so the probability of producing deformed children is very high. So, we usually mate with other races through polymorphs and get children. .”
“Then it doesn’t have to be me?”
Then Gav chuckled and waved his index finger.
“Just because dragons of the same age can’t have children, we won’t do anything with anyone. We strictly give birth to children only through the seed or placenta of the strong. Lineage is very important.”
It was the first time I knew that dragons had such circumstances.
“If I said no, would you give up?”
“Hmm. That’s unexpected.”
As Gav said, he rubbed his chin in embarrassment.
“Is it because you don’t like the look? It’s possible to be younger than this.”
“No, that’s not a problem.”
“Then what’s the problem?”
“…I think anyone would react like this if someone they knew as a man for a few days suddenly proposed to them.”
Then Gav tilted his head.
“Do you care about that? You’re surprisingly conservative.”
I had a lot to say, but I decided to hold it in.
There are, of course, differences in customs among tribes.
Anyway, Gav nodded and said, as if my persuasion had worked.
“Then I can’t help it. Let’s start with friends. Is that okay?”
“Uh… That doesn’t matter.”
When I finally agree, Gav smiles with satisfaction and holds out his right hand to me.
“I’ll ask you well again. Patrasche. If you feel like that, let me know. I’m always welcome.”
“…Are you not giving up?”
“Huh? There’s no reason for that. Of all the strong men I’ve met in my life, I like you the most.”
Gav wasn’t shy about expressing her feelings with her stone fastballs.
It’s the first time I’ve seen this type since I was born again.
Even if the gender changes from male to female, it seems that the heroic temperament still remains.
Feeling a bit drained, I turned my gaze to Ozma, who was listening to the conversation beside me.
When her eyes met mine, she looked away sneakily, perhaps because she was stabbed.
Hey, let’s not talk
***
After dinner with a very sumptuous course meal, we dispersed to our respective rooms and rested.
So many things happened during this day, but what I experienced in just a few hours at Gav’s mansion was something I would remember for the rest of my life.
Is this the life of an emperor?
After having a delicious dinner, getting water in the bathtub in the bathroom attached to the room and taking a bubble bath, he was truly not envious of the emperor.
I sip the liquor in the room and stare at the ceiling.
The luxuriously decorated crystal chandelier was shining and reflecting the light.
“Whoa…”
After washing the cat’s face by scooping hot water with both hands, I soaked myself in a huge bathtub that seemed to have enough space even with 10 people in.
While doing this, memories of going to public baths in the past came to mind.
When I went on a weekday early in the morning, I felt like I had rented a hot spring bath because no one was there, but now I feel that way.
It was the time when I was enjoying the hot water with a towel over my head and a lock under my chin.
Drooling-
“Patrasch, is the bath water okay?”
Suddenly the bathroom door opened and Gav entered her naked body.
“Pu-huh!”
I was taken aback by the unexpected situation and squirted water.
“Now, wait a minute. What is this?”
“I came here because I thought I’d push my friends on the back.”
As Gav said that, he approached with confident steps.
The muscular white body, which seems to reproduce the golden rule, disturbs the gaze.
I couldn’t have imagined that just because I refused, they would launch a physical attack like this right away.
It’s a huge ruse.
No matter how much I don’t think much of her as her opposite sex, if I push her into her body like this, she can’t help but react to some extent.
As I slipped her hips around her to avoid Gav coming into her tub, Gav smiled and sat down some distance away.
“What are you so wary of?
“Is that kind of person suddenly breaking into the bathroom?”
“It’s not the first time we’ve seen each other naked.”
What Gabe said was true.
Actually, a few days ago, I had run into her naked in a hot spring in an inn for outsiders.
Of course, at that time both me and Gavna were men.
Thinking like that, I thought that there was no need to try to cover up my nakedness, so I decided to be comfortable.
“Then why did you come all of a sudden?”
“No, did you really come here to give me a push? Originally, naked conversation is the best way to get close with friends.”
“…Don’t kids these days do that?”
“I-I’m sorry. I’m an old person.”
Hearing my point, Gav shook his hand as if it didn’t matter and put his hand on the rim of the bathtub.
“Rather than that, how did a human join the Demon King’s Army?”
I looked at Gav, who suddenly hit the mark, with a slightly surprised expression.
“Did you know?”
“That’s right, you can’t know because you’ve been fist-to-fist. You’ve worked really hard not to get hit by me, right?”
Having said that, I had nothing to say.
Because it was true that I used dragons to not get hit.
It seemed that I had already been caught anyway, so I decided to admit it.
“Well… It’s true that I’m a human, as Gavril-sama said. But I’m confident that my loyalty to the Demon Lord will be second to none of the other demons. I even wrote the Gears Scroll.”
“Ohh. Up to the Gears Scroll?”
“Yes.”
First of all, I didn’t lie. Lies.
Since he decided to defect anyway, it seemed that making it clear would avoid suspicion, and a contract is quite helpful in forming a relationship of trust.
It was also written with the meaning of asking to be treated like a dog because it is a condition that I cannot receive compensation unless I conquer the world anyway.
Well, I think it’s very fortunate that I transferred to the Demon King’s Army now.
“If it’s the Demon King’s permission, it won’t be something for me to discuss. What’s more important than that is making children.”
“…Are you still not giving up?”
“You can lie still in bed as long as you do what you want. I will take care of the seed. You just have to enjoy pleasure without responsibility.”
This guy is much more persistent than he looks.
I decided to avoid her and leave her bathroom because if I soaked her in her bath water any longer, her hair would get weird.
“Are you leaving already?”
“It may be already from Gabriel-sama’s point of view, but I’ve already been in for an hour.”
Putting on an appropriate bathrobe and going outside, she suddenly saw a bed with bedding set for two people.
… How the hell did you design it?
I was dumbfounded and was about to put away the pillow when the door suddenly opened.
“Is Kaldrash asleep already? If it’s okay, I’d like to talk about something earlier.”
As she said that, what came inside her was Ozma, whose hair was wet with water, as if she had just washed it.
She was holding a bottle of wine in her right hand, and her breasts, which were normally held flat, rose nicely, as if she had loosened the compression bandages she always wore.
I looked at her in bewilderment.
“Huh? Mr. Ozma? Could you wait a moment…”
It was then.
Gav sticking out her body in the bathroom.
“Patrasch, in case you don’t have any towels left… Eh.”
“Gav! Why are you here!”
No, why does it keep flowing like an outdated love comedy?
