(Chastity Reversed) I'm Sorry, My Lady. I Had Sex With Another Woman Again

“Suberia, let’s include Nico-kun.”

“Huh?”

We were in the middle of a gathering in my room when suddenly, Ginny – my close friend and comrade – said such a thing with a serious face.

The reason we gathered today was to decide on the fourth member for our party, which would be necessary for us going forward.

The dungeon exploration assignment was of utmost importance at this academy. No, not just that. For school events and such, we were often encouraged to move in groups of four.

Myself, Shia, and Ginny.

We had already decided to work together, but we hadn’t been able to find a fourth person during middle school.

So after entering high school and introducing ourselves with everyone in class, we were trying to decide on a fourth person, but…

“No, not Nico. Nico is…”

I wondered if she was joking. Normally I could just laugh it off with something like “What are you saying?” but because Ginny had such a serious expression, my reaction became rather awkward.

“That’s right, why Nico? She’s the last person we’d want. She’s such a klutz.”

Shia hurriedly agreed with my opinion. She wasn’t good at mental work, so during these kinds of decision-making moments, she often just stared at the sky. But apparently, she couldn’t bear this.

Myself and Shia. Ginny received gazes mixed with confusion and dissatisfaction from the two of us. However, she didn’t seem to mind.

“So you’re against it, as I expected…”

“Of course I am… I don’t understand why we should include her…”

To begin with, hypothetically speaking, even if Nico had become so attractive that we would want her in our party, emotionally, I still wouldn’t want to include her.

…Because if I saw her flirting with Simon-sama, I might want to separate them using my party leader authority.

“This proposal was actually for Suberia’s benefit…”

“Huh?”

For my benefit? She said? If we were to include Nico, it was obvious that my stomach and heart would be utterly destroyed.

How could that possibly benefit me?

“What do you mean…?”

“I’ll explain now. First, there are three advantages to including Nico-kun in our party.”

Standing up and spreading her hands dramatically, she, who was called the top student in our school, began to speak.

“First, for Suberia’s family, the Fonekers. If we make Nico our companion, the connection with the Novi family will strengthen. Isn’t that a significant advantage for you who aims to become the ‘Demon Lord’?”

“…Well, that’s true.”

What Ginny was saying was correct.

My goal, and the supreme objective of my clan, the “Foneker Family”, was to produce a Demon Lord from our lineage.

Or more precisely, for me to become the Demon Lord.

From that perspective, there was certainly no disadvantage in being on good terms with Nico. Strictly speaking, with Dorothy-sama, but still.

Unlike the “Four Heavenly King” positions, which could be seized through a contest of strength, the selection of the Demon Lord wasn’t determined by physical prowess alone.

One needed to be acknowledged as the Demon Lord by all Four Heavenly Kings.

But getting acknowledged by everyone was an extremely difficult task.

Those who were deeply loyal to the Demon Lord would never recognize a “new Demon Lord”.

That’s why, if one desired to become the Demon Lord, one first had to defeat the Four Heavenly Kings. They had to gather four powerful subordinates, have them usurp the positions of the Four Heavenly Kings, and then become the Demon Lord. That was the legitimate path to becoming the Demon Lord.

—However.

“It’s impossible for us to defeat Dorothy-sama now… Indeed, from that perspective, it would be better to be on good terms with Nico, but…”

“Well, I don’t want to fight anymore… Just remembering makes me feel sick.”

There existed an enemy who was too strong—the mother of our friend and one of the Four Heavenly Kings. We had discussed many times whether we could become Demon Lords if she remained active, she was just that strong.

Indeed, if being on good terms with Nico would get her to acknowledge my appointment as Demon Lord, it might be worth it…

To us, who had somewhat come to terms with this, Ginny held up two fingers and continued.

“Next then. The second point is class unity. Currently, Suberia’s faction is the strongest, but… If we don’t include Nico-kun, there’s a possibility that a Nico faction could form in our class.”

“A Nico faction? She doesn’t seem the type.”

Shia also agreed with my question.

“Yeah, yeah! I think so too. She doesn’t have that kind of capacity. Besides, who would follow her?”

The current class.

In the high school class we had newly entered, there were several nobles. No, there were many nobles.

However, in terms of lineage, Nico and I would be the two strongest. There were some who seemed somewhat influential, but none who could form a faction.

First, my “Foneker Family” had produced a Demon Lord, represented by the ruler from two generations ago. We were nobles deeply rooted in the magical land from ancient times, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say we had the most money in the country.

Although we had lost the position of Demon Lord right now, we would definitely reclaim it someday.

As for Nico, there was no need to say more.

She was the daughter of the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings. I believe her father was also of decent lineage. I think I heard something about him being a distant relative of the current Demon Lord, arranged to build relations between the Demon Lord and Dorothy-sama.

Though not as good as mine, she had a good lineage… Only her lineage, though.

“Well, it’s practically decided that Suberia will be the class representative. In such a situation, there’s no one who would go to Nico who could be considered a rival to Suberia, not now at least.”

“That’s quite a suggestive way of putting it…”

“I’m saying it might be different in the future. After a few months, those who couldn’t get close to Suberia might flock to Nico-kun seeking a chance. Such bottom-feeders might unite to oppose Suberia. If that happens, it would be troublesome, wouldn’t it?”

“…”

I had thoroughly researched the school events and activities in advance. Among them, the most common were party-based, followed by class-based. Competition between classes was inevitable. In such cases, having two factions was certainly not desirable.

Moreover, allowing bottom-feeders to form a faction was indeed frightening.

…If I were to become the Demon Lord, I couldn’t afford to lose even in inter-class competitions because it would affect future evaluations.

Therefore, including Nico in our party to unite the class faction might make some sense.

“…”

…I really didn’t like this. I really, really didn’t like this.

“Then, the last one. If you don’t include Nico-kun in the party, you’ll regret it as a person, I’m sure.”

“That’s what I understand the least…”

Shia seemed to have lost track of the conversation and was staring at the sky. I reluctantly questioned Ginny once more.

“I understand there are advantages in terms of becoming the Demon Lord… But I don’t want to see Simon-sama and Nico flirting. How would not including Nico in the party lead to regret?”

If including her led to regret, I would understand.

Surely, for the sake of becoming the Demon Lord, if I included Nico in the party, I would probably spend days feeling nauseated by her insensitivity and Simon-sama’s denseness.

Not that either of them was in the wrong…

But I would surely spend depressing days.

To me, who was looking down, Ginny again put on a serious expression and appealed to me with her endlessly dark eyes.

“Suberia, imagine what I’m about to say.”

What on earth?

I felt like her demeanor had changed.

However, unable to say anything, I silently did as she said.

“Alright? Imagine this. First, Nico-kun isn’t allowed into the party and is carried as a figurehead for a faction. The kind of people who would form such a faction are, naturally, no good.”

In my mind as I closed my eyes, dubious people appeared.

“Those people will set their sights on Simon-senpai.”

In my head, they began to stare at Simon-sama with leering grins. My spine tingled with coldness.

“Since they’re morally corrupt, they probably wouldn’t care that he’s Nico-kun’s beloved and would target his body. They might even peep at him in the bath. They might receive hot treatment like we do.”

They would barge into Simon-sama’s bath naked, claiming they made a mistake, and beg him for healing magic for alleged burns. With drooling faces, in a very vulgar manner.

Just imagining it sent goosebumps down my arms. For some reason, I began to sweat profusely.

“And one day, knowing that Simon-senpai has a wide tolerance, they’ll say things like, ‘If you don’t want us to leave the faction, let us do it with you’. Simon-senpai probably wouldn’t refuse that… Are you going to laugh and say this is just a delusion?”

The faces of those villains violating Simon-sama…

They appeared vividly in my mind, and I was desperately trying to control my rough breathing. There was no way I could laugh and call it a delusion.

Because we had almost become like that too.

If someone approaching Simon-sama had rotten intentions, he would surely be defiled. That purity I loved about him would probably be erased by filth.

“Haah…! Haah…!”

“Hey Suberia, we can’t leave senpai to Nico-kun. That’s why we should manage him closely… What do you think?”

Just imagining such things made my head hurt terribly. I felt nauseated and wanted to lash out.

If my first love, Simon-sama, would be taken advantage of and violated because of his conscience.

If, to prevent that from happening…

If, even slightly, that probability could be reduced…

“…I understand. I will absolutely not let such things happen to Simon-sama.

Let’s include Nico in our group.”
