Chapter 470: A Modest Warning

「Because it’s just the two of us, you can tell me without putting on a front. Is the wound deep?」

Erich asks with a concerned expression.

It doesn’t seem like he’ll make any jokes regarding the female underwear strewn at his feet.

Does he think it’s a ruse to hide how serious my injury is?

Lying doesn’t feel right so I’ll tell the truth.

「The wound itself is rather insignificant. However, the salve formed a bad combination with another drug, causing a little bit of a problem in my lower half, and I didn’t want to affect soldier morale by showing any disgraceful behavior so I’m being prudent. To make up for not participating in the war council, I’ve been lying here contemplating the battlefield――」

「No need to worry, I have already told Leopolt about the plan. I see, I’m glad it isn’t life-threatening.」

Erich doesn’t look satisfied with the explanation, but he’s at least relieved.

He initially brings out alcohol, but chuckles and switches to water.

Man, I would have liked the booze.

「By the way, what is that bulge in the futon?」

Myla gets nervous.

「I-if I get discovered...... my house and my honor...... awawa.」

「Haha, it’s your fault. You came when the two of them were servicing me, so they had to leave halfway. It’s terrifying, would you like to see?」

「You idiot, I’m not someone who enjoys looking at another man’s dick! In the first place, you’re the abnormal one who would even think about getting sucked off in the middle of recuperating!」

Erich smiles despite yelling at me.

It’s what I usually do, so I guess it doesn’t really bother him too much.

I pretend to adjust the futon and peek under, seeing Myla curled up around my dick, making herself as small as possible, trembling and sweating profusely with an absolutely pale face.

Having such a beauty afraid of my cock really stimulates the violent sexual desires of a man.

「I came here today because there is something I need to talk to you about.」

Oh, it’s a serious discussion.

「Is it about the war? I haven’t asked Celia about the council yet.」

「......there’s that. Although, you can probably hear the details of the plan from her, what’s important is that we must treat all the citizens as enemies from this point on. Reports from the vanguard and spies are the same: “All the citizens of Altair blindly support the South Yuguria Empire. If we go to war, they will definitely turn against us.”」

So he’s saying not to wait until the opponent uses a scheme or until we fail to capture popular sentiment, and just to unconditionally treat the citizens as enemies?

Myla nods under the covers.

「Before they were swallowed up by South Yuguria, the land was ruled by fanatics.」

The two former fanatics are running a small church back home.

「If they’re gullible enough to be deceived by fanatics, then anyone can mix in a little bit of logic and insert themselves as their ruler.」

That’s right.

I don’t know the exact sequence of events, but their target of devotion simply changed from the God of Altair to South Yuguria or Wilhelmina.

「So we’ll have to wipe them out too?」

「Probably. We can’t march forward if we are too reserved. We have to think of a strategy which assumes the citizens are our enemies from the start.」

This doesn’t seem like a battle with much chivalry.

It’s a given that wars are not pretty, but I hope that at least the women get spared.

I’d like to increase my lovers if possible.

I feel nails dig into my dick from under the covers.

「The South Yugurian soldiers movements also changed from chaotic fleeing to orderly movements. They are most certainly retreating, although they are doing so systematically while trying to exhaust us...... they must be plotting something.」

「They probably have more than half of their cavalry left.」

Erich nods.

「The one who gave you that injury was the commander of the cavalry, right? I heard you captured his aide.」

Does he mean Piris?

「Yes, I embarrassed her and didn’t find out anything. You call her an aide, but she’s more like a lover.」

It’s not rare for commander-class soldiers to bring their lovers along on the battlefield.

And no matter how much you press them, they won’t leak information.

Erich sighs, also guessing as much.

「I want it to be a decisive battle, an open-field one if possible.」

I pat Myla’s head as I mutter.

「The enemy has a way of strengthening their castle walls. We won’t get them to come outside so easily. Normally......that is.」

I want to do something about that.

I’ll get Leopolt and Tristan to think as well.

Myla also tilts her head in thought.

Her silky hair feels good on my dick.

「Keeping on the topic of citizens, what do you intend to do with Libatis?」

Erich glares at me.

「They’re doing some kind of welcome right now, huh. I’m not planning to approve of the rebuilding of the Democratic Nation of Libatis though. They fell into ruin of their own volition and we even provided them with reinforcements.」

Well, that’s right.

Myla nods, but quickly lays back down, realizing that she shifted the futon.

「In the end, it became a base for the enemy’s invasion, which we stole by sacrificing our own people. Why should we revive a fallen country after that?」

Myla nods inconspicuously.

When I move my dick in front of her nose, she prods it with her tongue.

「Just in case, I went ahead and sent a letter to His Majesty enumerating their words, but the course of action hasn’t changed. We do not have time to concern ourselves with whatever election they are free to hold. As long as they don’t get in our way, we’ll leave them alone, otherwise we’ll suppress them with force. That’s it.」

I don’t have any objections to that.

Once broken, an object or country won’t return to its former state.

Even if they could do so, they should do it with their own hands. It’s ridiculous to rebuild a country with the help of another party.

It’s like asking an acquaintance to take back the wife which was stolen from you.

Even if successful, the wife will simply latch onto the man who saved her and she won’t return to you.

Myla, unsure how the example relates to the issue, pokes my stomach.

What I’m more worried about is Jim.

He’s not stupid and he should know everything that we said just now.

However, Jim is from a free country and believes justice is absolute.

He might think he has to act despite knowing it’s impossible or that the chairman is stupid. In that case――

「We will mention Libatis to the domestic affairs so they can be appeased. More importantly, regarding the strategy, this is information which enemy spies are looking out for and something I haven’t said in the council......we’re going to match the all-out attack in Alteria with a large-scale invasion from the east. That force is currently preparing in the capital.」

「What’s the goal......?」

Myla has reclaimed my territory in the east but hasn’t invaded any further.

「Everything. Take every region we can pass through, the Malt region, the Vandolea region, and the Dard Mountains.」

That’s incredible.

Myla’s breathing becomes rougher as her excitement increases and she blushes when the scent of my member enters her nose.

「It will be a distraction and it also attacks the enemy’s foundation at the same time.」

「What do you mean by the enemy’s foundation......?」

Erich grins.

「South Yuguria’s strength is their trust in the Empire and Empress. A newly created nation wins and advances with great vigor, swallowing notable countries and temporarily ruling over a majority of the Central Plains. The soldiers and citizens believe they are a part of something great. That’s why they are strong and won’t collapse.」

Myla listens with a serious expression under the covers.

「But what if Malt is robbed and Vandolea is occupied and the border has been penetrated? All the soldiers and citizens will be forced to pay attention. To the potential of losing, that is. Once the illusion shatters, the basis of their strength will also fall apart.」

Erich pours enough alcohol to cover the bottom of the glass and offers it to me with the thought that a little shouldn’t hurt.

「When that happens, the enemy will not want to fight on the main battlefield. They might even abandon the advantage they have on the defensive side. ......besides that, I would also prefer if we had a fleet on the Teries river......although it’s not something we can find easily. Hahaha.」

After Erich confirmed that I gulped down the alcohol, his expression became stricter.

「One last thing, this is a complaint over a drink and a bit of a warning.」

Peering at his face, I can tell this is close to the main reason he came.

「This war, you’ve been running east and west, increasing your accomplishments. Nobody can rival you in terms of contributions. You can truly be considered the guardian of Goldonia.」

I’m happy he’s praising me, but his words don’t match his expression.

Erich leans forward and brings his face close.

Myla stays still like a turtle.

「Therein lies the problem. You are too strong...... you are way stronger than everyone else.」

Being strong is wonderful, yet being too strong is a problem......is it?

I continue to listen without interrupting.

「It would be fine if you were just too strong. It would be fine if you were too clever. It’s not good when you have many allies. Being strong and gathering allies is not allowed.」

「Allies? I feel like I have rather few allies though.」

I don’t put much effort into socializing and I don’t have relatives.

If I’m considered someone who has many allies, then all the other nobles should be no good either.

「I mean allies that are of equal rank. If you gathered small-time feudal lords or became the general of a mountain, I wouldn’t say anything. Rather, that would be preferred. It’s not a problem for small fry to crowd together. However, think about the individuals you made during this fight.」

I try to remember, but all I can think of are certain grunts.

「The King of Aless. Reinforcements from the Federation. A group of magic users. You have others, don’t you?」

His face gets closer to emphasize his point.

「They didn’t come to save Goldonia. They came to save you. Individuals of equal strength came to rally around you. Do you understand how dangerous that is?」

Erich stares at me with a mix of anger and worry.

I maintain eye contact while ensuring not to stare back.

I guess it’s a rather complicated issue for them to help me, even though it also results in an advantage for Goldonia.

「I trust you. However, no one else trusts you as much as I do.」

「I got it. I’ll be careful.」

I don’t know what to be careful of, but if he doesn’t distance himself soon, Myla will pass out.

When I nod, he relaxes and pulls back.

「I apologize that you have to hear this in the sickbed, but I thought you had to hear it sooner or later. That’s all I have to―― oh, one more thing.」

He still has more to say?

「Those long-eared magic-using individuals......could I ask you to call one or two over for a drinking party? It won’t be anything big. Actually, I might be the only one attending.」

「......are they your type?」

「......the white ones, especially.」

I tell him that I will ask them, although I can’t guarantee anything, and he leaves the room, not before saying he’s counting on me twice.

He’s definitely going to embrace them if he sees an opening when they’re drunk. I better warn the elves.

「That takes care of that.」

When I remove the futon, Myla is clinging to my body and repeatedly sighing in relief.

「I-I didn’t think I would make it.」

I laugh as I hug Myla and roll her onto the bed.

「Hahaha, if he found out, both of us would have to prostrate naked.」

「It’s not a joke! I left in the middle of today’s war council! If this gets out, I would be seen as a lewd noble who neglects military service for Lord Hardlett’s thing!」

During our playful argument, my balls suddenly start to hurt.

「I-is this a precursor to the bursting!? I have to release it quickly or else...... should I use my mouth?」

「No, we might as well go all the way.」

Myla agrees and rolls over, but that’s not what I mean.

「Since I’ve gotten a limitless supply, why not try some unconventional positions?」

「Unconventional? Like from the back......eh? If Lord Hardlett turns your butt to me, how...... no way!?」

I stuff my hard-as-steel cock into Myla in reverse.

「N-not upside down! If you do that――kyaaaa!!」

It’s been a while since I’ve unleashed my ultimate move and it’s really effective.

Myla screams and claws at the sheets.

Of course, those are screams of pleasure, not pain.

「This is really bad! It’s not a position humans are supposed to――hiiiiih!!」

「Never mind that, just push out your arms and raise your ass more. The higher you lift it, the better you’ll feel.」

As Myla props herself up, my dick twitches and blasts hot semen inside her.

Normally, this would be an unthinkably premature release, but it can’t be helped right now.

Besides, I won’t go limp no matter how much I ejaculate, so I just have to continue while cumming.

「Dying! I’m dyinnngg!!」

「Hahaha, I’m far from done! Next, I’m going to spin――」

At that moment, someone knocks lightly on the door.

I open the door, thinking to myself, “man, I was just getting to the good part. How annoying.”

Then, I freeze.

The knock came from the inside of the room, not the outside.

「Looks like I’m intruding.」

Yeah, Erich’s about the only one who enters without knocking.

「Haa, haa...... are you not going to spin yet...... ah.」

Myla turns pale when she sees Erich.

She is naked in a position with her ass raised and on top of that, I’m piercing her down to her core.

「I forgot to give you a get-well gift. Could you at least pull out before accepting it?」

「T-take it out! Please take it out!」

Myla flails around, except it’s not so simple to remove my dick when I’ve inserted it so deep.

When I forcefully pull out, Myla partially turns and sits on the bed with her thighs turned inward, semen still leaking from her crotch.

I respectfully receive the item from Erich, whose face is scrunched up from the stench of my seed.

「Thanks.」

It’s an extremely high-quality silk gown and towel.

This must be his consideration for me while I’m in the sickbed.

I would have liked it if he was considerate enough to come 30 minutes later though.

Erich is directing his attention at Myla instead of me.

His eyes are filled with anger and disgust rather than lust.

「Lady Hyuutia.」

「Yeash.」

Myla squeals, covering her chest and the front of her groin area with her hands.

「You left the council early to have sex? How enviable.」

「I-I have no words......」

When I step in front of Myla to cover her, Erich points to the corner of the room.

My lecture will be later, I guess.

If she was my subordinate, I would take all responsibility and everything would be settled, but Myla is a noble who was granted peerage from the King.

In other words, Myla and I are equal co-workers, not superior and subordinate.

Therefore, each of us have to take responsibility for our own actions.

「I thought you were a serious person. What a frivolous position.」

Myla starts to panic.

I’d like it if he stopped there.

「I know it’s a bit late to mention, but did you think I didn’t notice your attitude during the strange smell incident in the prior council?」

「Myla!?」

Myla finally fainted.

I was hoping she didn’t.

「Please leave it there. You can scold me properly later.」

「It’ll be a waste of time to scold you! At least embrace girls in moderation while you’re recuperating!」

He smacked me in the head.

Well, he’s not going to believe me if I told him my balls would explode if I didn’t sleep with women, right?

Erich eventually calms down and I also wrap a sheet around my waist to hide my crotch.

「I can cover for you as many times as you’d like for incidents such as these. So please, don’t do anything beyond what I can cover for.」

When I tilt my head in confusion, Erich shakes his head.

「......nevermind. Anyways, how do you do that thing you were doing just now? Does it only work if you have a monster-class thing like yours?」

「No, not necessarily. The trick is to have the woman’s ass like his while you use your hips like this――」

「I see......it seems like a very exhausting move.」

「It works really well though. After all, the tip directly hits the woman’s greatest weak point――」

「Will it also work on mature women?」

「Absolutely.」

Erich exits the room nodding to himself, twisting his body almost like he’s stretching.

「Ah, I forgot something this time. It’s about the penal unit.」

「Penal unit? What about it?」

I can’t ignore Zillia’s desperate pleas.

「The penal unit should be under the direct control of headquarters, but can I offer my input in personnel selection?」

「That kind of group is a collection of delinquent soldiers and will be put on the front lines to set an example. It has no strategic purpose, so do as you wish.」

I got Erich’s approval.

I think I can do something.
