Chapter 56: Rescue Success! Gotta Take Care of Those Wounds!

“You’re safe, Filmeria.”

“…Y-Yes… Um… This man… h-helped… me…”

Cerialis turned her gaze toward me. Man… what a commanding presence…

“A commoner… hm? You protected the high noble Filmeria, even getting wounded in the back, and held off Alkrom. I’ll grant you the honor of addressing me.”

“…Thanks.”

I was trying to buy time for Erinabel, but ended up stalling until this incredible knight showed up…! Not that I’m complaining!

“State your name.”

“…Touya.”

“A fittingly plain name for a commoner. Suits you.”

What’s that supposed to mean!? Apologize to my parents! My dad’s dead, and I don’t even know where my mom is, but still!

That aside, my back’s hurting. It just felt hot earlier, but now it’s straight-up pain.

“Your willingness to sacrifice yourself to save a high noble is commendable for a commoner. Come, Filmeria, we’re leaving.”

“Ah…”

Cerialis passed by me, reaching for Filmeria’s hand. At that moment, I collapsed to the ground.

(…? What’s wrong? My body won’t move…?)

‘You’ve lost too much blood. It’s not fatal yet, but without treatment, it’ll take time to move again.’

Seriously…!? That’s pretty bad, isn’t it!?

‘On the flip side, with time, you’ll recover. That’s the effect of our contract.’

Damn… I can’t even speak properly…

“C-Cerialis-sama…! Please… treat him…!”

“No need. He won’t die from this.”

That’s harsh! Can’t you be a bit kinder!?

“B-But… he… he’s my… lifesaver… who was supposed to… die…”

“…You saw that in your prophecy?”

“Y-Yes…”

Ugh… They’re talking about something… but my consciousness… it’s getting… hazy…

“…Ngh?”

When I woke up, I was lying on a plush bed somewhere. Where am I?

‘You’re awake.’

“Cui… Where’s this?”

‘Filmeria’s mansion. Well, more like a detached wing. Not as grand as a full mansion.’

Looking at my body, I saw bandages wrapped around me. Seems they treated my back wound.

‘The scar will linger for a while, but it’ll fade eventually.’

“Got it. So, what happened after?”

‘Filmeria insisted on saving her lifesaver to Cerialis. So, under Filmeria’s responsibility, you were treated here.’

Cui filled me in on the aftermath.

Apparently, Filmeria foresaw her own death in a prophetic dream. She was supposed to be killed by Alkrom there.

But my intervention changed that future.

“A girl who sees the future, huh…”

‘I’ve informed Erinabel you’re here.’

“How!?”

‘I mimicked bird calls and signaled with my body to follow.’

How does that even work!?

But Erinabel, used to Cui perched on my head, followed without question.

She ran into Filmeria by chance, apparently.

‘Since the missing Filmeria was found, naturally, the topic of how she was saved from Alkrom came up. Filmeria mentioned Cerialis and a guy with a bird on his head.’

“Ah, got it…”

‘Filmeria knows you’re Erinabel’s retainer. She’s handling your treatment and will return you once you’re healed.’

Well, retainers are seen as their noble master’s property, so it’s good this didn’t go south.

“But man, that Cerialis, the mini-skirt knight, was something else…”

‘Indeed. She’s undoubtedly the strongest we’ve met. The First Seat of the Twelve Radiant Generals is no joke.’

I couldn’t even tell what she was doing against Alkrom! All I got was that he was completely outmatched.

‘Hm…’

Just then, the door opened hesitantly. Filmeria peeked in.

“Ah…”

Our eyes met. She glanced away briefly, then slowly looked back.

“U-Um… Y-Your injury…”

“Oh, I’m mostly fine now. Thanks for patching me up.”

“Y-Yes… Um… I-It’s my fault…”

“Don’t worry about it! I’m just glad you’re safe!”

That’s the honest truth. In the end, I’m relieved she’s unharmed.

“Oh, and formally, I’m Touya. Nice to meet ya!”

“Y-Yes, Touya-sama… I’m Filmeria Fimirun.”

Filmeria’s tone was a bit nervous, like she’s not used to talking to people.

But since she’s naturally cute, it just adds to her charm. Guys are so simple…

(Up close like this, she’s insanely cute… That silver hair’s so mystical, and those heterochromatic eyes add a divine vibe, or something…)

And her chest! So big! I wanna squeeze them so bad!

Right now, it’s nighttime, and moonlight’s streaming into the room, making Filmeria’s hair shine even brighter.

“U-Um… Is something… on my face…?”

“Oh! Sorry, sorry, I was just thinking how pretty your eyes and hair (and boobs) are! Heterochromia, right? First time seeing it, so I got lost staring!”

“Eh…”

Filmeria gave me a slightly surprised look. Even that expression’s adorable!

Whoops, gotta focus. Cui filled me in, but Filmeria probably thinks I don’t know much yet. Let’s get her to talk.

“While we’re introducing ourselves, I’m Erinabel’s retainer.”

“Y-Yes… I heard you were recently taken on as her retainer…”

“Yup, lots happened!”

Never thought meeting Erinabel would lead to this…! Thanks to her, I’m living a wild otherworld life!

We kept talking, sharing updates, and it turned into casual chatter. Filmeria seemed to loosen up, and the conversation flowed better.

“So… you first met Erinabel-sama in an alley…?”

“Yeah, she was like, ‘You’re a rebel, aren’t you?’ and hauled me to the outpost. Rough start, right?”

“F… Fufu. Yes…”

So refined. She listens eagerly, a great listener, and doesn’t talk much about herself.

But then Filmeria’s face turned apologetic.

“Um… I’m a Third Count by rank… but I abandoned my noble duties partway, so I don’t hold any position…”

…Huh? What’s this about?

I don’t get what noble duties are or how that ties to a job…

“So… um… I have nothing to offer you, Touya-sama, my lifesaver…”

“Oh… you mean…”

So, Filmeria wants to repay me but doesn’t have anything to give.

Some circumstance means that despite being a high noble, she’s not earning much…

“Don’t sweat it! I didn’t save you for a reward!”

“But…”

I sneak a glance at Filmeria’s chest. Nice…! I really wanna squeeze them…

…

‘Right now, you could exploit Filmeria’s guilt and easily have her. Even if she resists, you could use Cui-oos to force arousal.’

Cui’s suggestion is exactly what I was thinking. Yeah, I’m dying to have this mystical girl…!

I mean, come on! Real silver hair, heterochromatic eyes, and huge boobs! That’s pure fantasy, right!? Of course I wanna do her!

I came to this world for a fantasy sex life. Sleeping with this silver-haired girl is basically my mission…!

“Hey, Filmeria.”

“…Yes?”

“I’m not after money. But if you insist, there’s something I want.”

“What is it? If it’s within my power, I’ll do anything.”

Anything… huh! My face is probably looking pretty wicked right now.

Can’t help it. Filmeria’s just too tempting.

It’s night. I give in to my rising lust and voice my desire.

“I want you, Filmeria.”
