As A Result of Trying To Live An Erotic Slow-Life, I Have Become The Underground Ruler of This Upside-Down Otherworld

Chapter 5: As I thought, I couldn’t win over my body

If only Eldo-sama had been a man.

It was the wish of almost all the living women in the family, including me.

For her, appearance means nothing, only one’s abilities are fairly evaluated.

Meritocracy does still exist, but it’s still an obvious story about how grateful and peaceful an environment that is not influenced by appearance can be for ugly women in this world.

For beastmen, the beauty judgment criterion is how much they resemble the blood of magical beasts.

It was said that the more body hair, facial features, hands, feet, and all parts of the body were like animals, the more beautiful they were.

I, whose grandmother was a quarter-beast, with only ears and a tail as animal parts… was considered ugly.

In such a life, I was ignored by the same species as me and also other species, and if I tried to attract attention, I was immediately rejected. Still, I clung to life because I had no doubt about my own abilities.

I was a solo B-rank adventurer.

I’ve done dark jobs, dirty jobs. Because those were the only jobs that came my way.

Desperately, for the sake of living. Believing that my abilities, my value, would be recognized someday.

Still, despite achieving feats that should have made me an A-rank, or even an S-rank, I remained a B-rank.

When I tried to object, I was even told to be grateful that they were giving me work, as if they could care less if I were to die at any time.

They said they were doing me a favor by keeping me in the shadows, so my ugly self wouldn’t be exposed to the light.

That’s why I felt saved when I joined the Eldo Family, which boasted meritocracy.

I was simply sought after for my abilities and recognized for them. If I did well, I was evaluated.

The ideal place I had imagined at the time was there.

The work content was similar to my work as an adventurer, but I was fulfilled.

On the rare occasions when I had free time, Eldo-sama herself would teach me cooking, and I felt happy every day.

It was natural to offer my gratitude and loyalty to her, even if that family has disbanded no.

I couldn’t accept the fact that the family had disbanded, and I couldn’t find my next life, so I relied on Eldo-sama’s kindness and spent my days maintaining the lifeless Ronyan in the capital. There were others like me, but I was the one who ran away from reality the most.

I thought it was time to become independent, but my heart wouldn’t move, and that’s when it happened.

“He was a man I wanted to call my son.”

A man who made Eldo-sama, who never let herself be called “Mother,” said that.

It was natural to feel jealous.

We, who could never become Eldo-sama’s women or daughters, would obviously feel jealous.

But I didn’t intend to disagree with Eldo-sama’s words.

That’s why I waited to see Arius, that man.

The man who appeared wasn’t particularly good-looking, but he had a strange aura about him.

Even in front of me, who was dressed in a black robe, he was natural, and he didn’t even succumb to the temptation of a beautiful woman and a high-rank adventurer, a ticket to success.

He was truly a mysterious person.

And to that mysterious person… I surrendered.

…Yes.

It was like a dream to me, even now.

Of course, I never thought there would be someone who would ever embrace me.

An overwhelming man.

When I saw that penis, the slut inside me surrendered to him completely.

I’m sorry for trying to judge you, I’m sorry for being jealous that Eldo-sama thought positively of you. Please calm your anger using me, if you will.

At the same time, I understood the meaning of the words “you won’t be able to go back” that Master said, and the words “you need to be prepared” that Eldo-sama said.

I can say for sure that I can’t ever leave Master’s side anymore.

There might have been a man in the future who would have embraced me too. But after being pierced by that erection and being treated with love and care, is a dream come true for a girl like me.

The future that might have been. The sex I had dreamed of was easily replaced by the one I had now, and I no longer felt any value in it.

Yes, I am. I can’t go back.

“Oh, you’re awake?”

“Master ♡”

I naturally and shamelessly show my submission, trying to be obedient. My throat is rumbling, and my tail is wagging unconsciously.

Just by looking at his face and hearing his voice, I feel a heat in the pit of my stomach, and I realize that it’s too late for me.

“You want to hire adventurers… for ingredients gathering?”

“Yeah. I’m going to ask the guild to request the ingredients, and then I’ll tell the adventurers which ones to collect when they come here. That way, they can make contact with us as a restaurant.”

I see, so the restaurant’s facade can be maintained if we were to make contact with the adventurers.

“I don’t want to spread the word that this place is a flag-bearer, but if I can find a trustworthy adventurer, I’ll have them spread my existence slowly. That’s what I meant yesterday about selecting customers. That way, I can control the network of people who know about me, like a customer list.”

It seems that my Master is not only good at sex, but also smart.

I understand the true intention behind not wanting to spread the word, as I was taught by my body yesterday.

If the high-rank adventurers and beautiful women of the world were to learn of Master’s true value, it’s easy to imagine that they would surround him in no time.

Adventurers would take him along as a sex outlet during their adventures, and nobles… no, even royalty would try to get their hands on him as their own meat doll.

“As I said before, I don’t want to make a lot of money. I just want to earn enough to live comfortably. If I can see that prospect, I plan to withdraw the requests I made to the Adventurer’s Guild.”

I nod. I understand.

You can’t stop people from talking. The more people who know about Master, the higher the risk.

“Is everything clear?… Oh, right, it’s nice to meet you once again, Towa-san.”

“Towa. Call me without any honorifics, Master.”

“Towa is fine? As I said, I intend to make you the manager of the Ronyan restaurant.”

“Yes. I shall do as you ask.”

I can’t help but think it’s too late for me to say this now, but this is truly Master’s kindness. Uuu… my heart is fluttering.

I told him that I wanted him to speak to me more casually. But I think this is better, this makes it clear that I am his thing.

I am aware that I can’t go back anymore, and I am prepared.

My female self is telling me to serve this person.

In a blunt way, I do have the desire to seek that pleasure again, like yesterday.

But…

“So, about the employment conditions…”

“Employment conditions?”

Hmm? What is Master saying?

Ah, is he going to tell me in advance how often he will embrace me? That would be very pleasing. It makes it worth it for me to continue living.

Let’s say once every 6 months… that might be too much to ask. Once a year. That’s enough for me…

“The monthly salary will be a minimum of five silver coins. Then, depending on the success of the business, we can add more. I think this is about the same as when I worked for the master, which was three silver coins, but oh, and sex is okay anytime.”

“Huh?”

Umm?

Have my ears gone bad? What did Master just say?

“Uhh, is it too little? Yeah, you’re not just an employee… but I still don’t know what the future holds.”

“No, that’s not it!!!”

That pleasure, I can experience it… anytime…? Is that true?

No, no, no! That’s not it, is it?

“It’s actually a treatment that should require me to pay you money! And yet, a salary…!”

I can say with certainty.

If I told this story to the ugly women of the world, I would be killed.

Rather, it’s not strange for me to pay money, I should pay.

At least, yesterday’s intercourse was not even enough for ten or twenty silver coins.
