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

“You useless fool! You’re completely worthless!”

Thwack, thwack!

The fists of the fat woman called Master—Kazuko—struck the face of kneeling Caron.

Kazuko, the female leader who controlled spies operating within the demon country, wouldn’t throw gentle punches. With each swing of her fist, Caron’s flesh split and blood splattered.

“Why are you here and Ichiko isn’t! Huh!?”

“…I’m sorry.”

Thwack!

Even apologizing wasn’t permitted.

Caron simply endured the violence Kazuko-sama unleashed.

“I only have one daughter—just Ichiko! Not filth like you! Did you get cocky just because I picked you up!? Huh! What’s your answer!”

Only one daughter.

At Kazuko’s words, Caron felt her heart being squeezed tight. That was only natural.

Caron had always wished for it—to become family with her. Her father, captured by demons and subjected to sexual violence.

And Caron, raised in the abnormal environment of being brought up by the demons who violated her father. Kazuko was the one who saved her from that.

Her father was unlucky—the rescue didn’t come in time, and he died around the time of Kazuko’s raid.

Still, Caron was saved. She was rescued from that bizarre environment by none other than Kazuko’s hands. For these reasons, motherless Caron harbored family-like feelings toward Kazuko, who had saved her.

“…Half-breed! You’re nothing but a tool to fulfill your role! You should have died for my daughter’s sake!”

That’s precisely why—while being beaten by Kazuko, her benefactor whom she thought of as family, Caron wondered: How did it come to this?

◇

The turning point came to me as I continued spy training just a few months ago. I headed to the academy together with Ichiko-san, my benefactor’s daughter.

“Caron. You sleep on the floor. I’m using all the beds.”

After finishing the academy’s entrance ceremony that began immediately upon arrival, Ichiko-san and I were heading to our room. The room where we’d live for the next several years.

As commoners, we weren’t assigned single rooms but shared ones, and apparently I couldn’t use the beds, but that wasn’t inconvenient.

“Understood, Ichiko-san.”

Just being with Ichiko-san, just being in the same space, made me happy. So sleeping on the floor wasn’t unpleasant at all. I even thought this place where I could see Ichiko-san’s beautiful face was a premium seat.

“Also, don’t conduct spy activities without my permission. I don’t want to get caught up in your mess.”

Ichiko-san, being Kazuko-sama’s daughter, naturally understood the activities we were conducting.

She occasionally cooperated with spy work too, but was basically passive. Her stance seemed to be doing it only when asked by Kazuko-sama.

“I plan to seduce some important male students at this academy and live comfortably. Just don’t get in my way.”

…I wouldn’t get in your way.

At Ichiko-san’s words, I was unusually hurt, just a little.

I had been saved by Kazuko-sama when I was in dire straits and given the great responsibility of supporting her daughter, Ichiko-san.

Considering that debt, how could I possibly interfere with her? No, it would be impossible.

I wanted her to trust me more…

I pressed my palms together towards her back, praying that my feelings would reach her.

Back then, Ichiko-san and Kazuko-san were everything to me, and being trusted by them was more precious than anything.

But——

◇

After that—shortly after entering the academy.

“So you’re called Caron. I’m Simon. Nice to meet you!”

“Y-yes…”

I made my first… friend.

“You there! Won’t you join SFC!? I’ll give you member number 4 right now!?”

I gained many comrades and companions.

“Caron… You show considerable promise. Your only weakness is that fragile spirit. Well, no matter—I’ll retrain you myself.”

I met people stronger than me whom I could respect.

Everything was fresh.

The new world called academy was made of happiness.

Even if sleeping on the floor made my body ache, today when I could meet everyone was bound to be wonderful, and even if unpleasant things happened, I’d quickly forget them.

It was the peak of my life.

Until that moment.

“…I got word from Mama. If we get Nico expelled, catch Simon and hand him over to Teresa. That way we can earn favor with Teresa who’s obviously targeting Simon, and Dorothy will get angry and naturally oppose the Demon King… Caron, understand?”

“Eh?”

◇

[Listen up!? Use any means necessary to save Ichiko! Bow your head to Evon Trading Company and ask them to speed up the search!]

(…)

Released from Kazuko, Caron trudged alone back to Evon’s mansion.

“What’s that…?”

However, her appearance was completely different from her usual calm self. She dragged one leg, walking like a ghost.

Half her face was dyed dark red and swollen to twice its size. The eyes floating in the depths of her swollen face were stained with bottomless despair.

Everyone walked with distance from her, not wanting to get involved.

(I want to see him…)

Covered in wounds from head to toe, Caron had walked dozens of kilometers.

Several hours after starting to walk.

Caron finally reached the mansion with great difficulty, but stood frozen in front of it without opening the door.

(No good…)

Caron stared at her own face reflected in the mansion’s window.

It was deformed beyond recognition as human—she thought her already ugly face was distorted, making it even more unbearable to look at.

Moreover…

[Bow your head to Evon Trading Company and ask them to speed up the search!]

Kazuko’s words made Caron’s feet heavy.

For Caron, Kazuko was her benefactor, but Evon, who was currently taking care of her, was equally a benefactor.

Even when Caron cried, Evon gently comforted her. Caron liked her gentle atmosphere.

But she had to shamelessly make a ‘request’ of such a person.

That dilemma tormented Caron, and after wavering, she turned on her heel and decided to leave the mansion.

“Huff…! Huff…!”

With each step away from the mansion, sweat poured from Caron’s entire body. Her feet repeatedly stopped and started on their own, while part of her mind continued ordering her to return to the mansion.

To obey her great benefactor Kazuko. However…

Even so, Caron wanted to believe in her own justice rather than Kazuko’s.

Just as when she defied Kazuko’s orders and attacked Teresa, she betrayed again.

(This is fine…)

Caron looked up at the sky where rain had begun to fall and let tears drop from her eyes.

Nothing good came from spies getting involved with others. If her actions would only hurt Simon and Evon, it was better not to meet them anymore.

Caron restrained her body that was about to look back toward the mansion and began walking again, dragging her feet.

(…Goodbye…)

“Caron-chan?”

“Eh…”

In the intensifying rain, a gentle woman’s voice called out to Caron’s departing back.

Involuntarily, Caron looked toward the voice.

“…! Caron-chan, are you alright!? Your injuries are severe. Let’s treat them immediately—come on, let’s go home.”

“E-Evon-san…”

There stood the person Caron had been avoiding—Evon.

Feeling she might have seen Caron from the mansion, she rushed out after her.

Evon looked at Caron’s wounds, became serious for a moment, and looked back toward the mansion.

She alternately looked at the bedroom where Simon was and the storehouse where medicine was kept, then took Caron’s hand and forcibly pulled her along.

“There’s an elixir in the storehouse. You’ll heal right up with that, so don’t worry♪”

“E-elixir… N-no! That’s not good, Evon-san! …Rather than using an elixir on me…”

A treasure worth tens to hundreds of billions.

Being told an elixir would be used, Caron panicked.

She couldn’t bear to have such money spent on her, and with that money… if that money were used… she thought.

“U-um, Evon-san. I don’t need treatment. Instead, this is a rude request, but could you please redirect that money toward rescue efforts?”

“? Rescue? The entire Evon Trading Company is already working on it… Well, if we reach out to other trading companies too, it would have some effect, but the cost-performance is poor. Do you still want us to do it?”

“Y-yes. Please, I beg you.”

Trembling, Caron desperately bowed her head.

Already injured, she looked pitiful, and her pleading was so wretched it was hard to watch directly.

However, while looking down at her bowed head, Evon grinned.

“…Fufu, that’s fine♪ If it’s a request from fellow human Caron-chan, I’ll listen.”

“…Really!?”

“Yes. Leave it to Onee-chan♪”

“Evon-san…!”

Raising her face, Caron was embraced in Evon’s arms as if being enveloped. It felt like being held by a mother, something she’d never experienced.

With her taut tension snapping, Caron cried again.

“Thank you, thank you so much…!”

“Oh my♪ It’s fine… There’s benefit for me too, you know?”
