“Flame princess! Come with me, I’m going to check on our pursuers, I'd like to know exactly when Lucas was informed and how much time we have before the reinforcements gather.”
A few dozen minutes went by since we barricaded ourselves in the cave, waiting for the assault. A long and trying wait that put us to the test, especially the most anxious and those who let themselves be convinced without trusting us completely.
The underground was massive, and Lucas along with the main force might still have a long way to go before arriving. That’s why I wanted to know his whereabouts.
“Don’t wanna. But I may change my mind with a ‘please, mistress Alev, grant these graceful helping hand and feet that I worship, to my humble self’ ”
“Please, Oh grand sappho, mistress of all, grant me your sexy legs and delicat masturbation’s tools, and I shall acknowledge your omnipotence.”
“Not bad, but my name is still missing somewhere. Too bad, all I can offer you now is to lend them to Lily instead, she might be against it but I’m sure a little massage would wear off fatigue, as well as giving everyone a bit of enthusiasm. Don’t worry, I know how to rub all the good spots, I’m a professional after all.”
“As a perfect husband and wife couple, we share everything. What's hers is mine, so I’ll take on that offer in her stead and use them wisely.”
As usual, we couldn’t speak seriously, without external pressure to make us bend together. We already were in discordance from the second we met, but lately, when she understood the situation, then when she confirmed my identity, we’ve been constantly thrashing each other.
Luckily for you I'm not gonna tell you about the last half hour. Since there was no real threat yet and we were bored, we maintained a constant flow of insults and trash talking. It would require too much time and thinking about it would only invite me to continue.
I might be jealous, but what is her damn problem? At first I even thought she was one of my former victims and she had a grudge against me, but since she only had some suspicion about my identity, It seemed unlikely to me.
If I could excuse myself since I had many, I don’t think any woman could’ve forgotten me even if she had hundreds of partners in the meantime. Or else, perhaps she had not seen my face? Quite possible since sometimes the conditions did not allow them to see things clearly.
But in any case, with my hero’s skills, my ability to see in the dark was above average and If that wasn't enough, I had other means. Out of respect for them, I made a habit to look at them closely without missing any details to make them feel special. I then engraved their image into my brain for future use, that was the secret behind my monstrous memory.
I couldn’t exactly remember everyone due to the absurd amount, not yet, but when I put my mind to it, I generally managed to find a face pretty quickly.
Following the troll event and our confinement, I had not made much progress in my memories recollection. Too much mental pressure, too much disturbance and visual distraction that prevent you from focusing on anything other than what you have before your eyes.
But she wasn't someone I would fail remembering, she has many memorable distinct physical features. Those hair are a thing, but overall she had a pretty face and figure. Her three sizes are well proportioned and her chiseled muscles are quite prominent without being too imposing.
No, the only possibility would’ve been that she was related to one of the girls instead, a friend or a family member, but that was not something I could verify all by myself and she never showed anything that would make me think so.
“Why did you even want my help? Not like I can be of any use. You outskill me in almost every aspect.”
Without answering back to my dirty joke, she admitted defeat and regained some seriousness. The moment wasn’t suitable to argue for long and I had won the last exchange by forfeit...
Or she just deemed I wasn’t worthy to waste our time, this was another possibility. Well, what matters is that I had the last word, even if this was nothing to be proud of, except for a child, maybe?
“I just need someone to stay behind and guard the back, if ever someone manages to get past me or my attention. I don’t know their ability to the whole extent and someone might very well be capable of escaping my attention if he avoids me.”
Right, It wasn’t because I wanted to prevent her from getting closer to the girls, and to attract the good graces of the men while I was doing all the odd jobs.

“And how are you gonna spy on them, you don't have concealment ability either don’t you?”
“That…” Well, I haven't thought that far yet, it’s true that given the environment, I couldn’t get too close without revealing myself… I might be able to try my luck if they speak out loud, while I’m praying for information, but I highly doubt this will work.
At least, they shouldn't easily tell my gender either, since it was very dark and this galerie was not well lit.
Actually, now that I thoughts about it, the former occupants had made big efforts to set up mana crystal lamps everywhere wasn’t it odd that this place alone had not been maintained and refilled with fuel? That was probably Anna’s doing or Lucas’s, to help dissimulate the trap that hadn’t been setup. They really thought hard about it and I suddenly felt pretty useless now.
“I’ll just run straight over them from the darkness and try catching one alive to interrogate him.”
“But you would eventually risk revealing your identity. You might be able to blend in with the crowd but you alone would arouse suspicion and I already doubt that your exploits in the rearguard have gone unnoticed.”
“That should work, now that we have gathered with the men, they might question themselves but they won’t look any further.”
“Okay, we do have a group of men now, but they’re too few, they would definitely find the trickery if a new head like yours appears out of nowhere, moreover in this questionable cosplay attire. Can you assure you will retain a low profile? I don’t think so, you will attract all the attention the moment you enter their field of view.”
F*ck she got me there, I was speaking about Anna’s risk earlier, but my situation was not better.
Until then, I killed most of our pursuers, and even while pouring insults like water or speaking, I did it with a more or less feminine voice. But if I was to rush into a pack by myself, when my clothes were already damaged, without the other girls to cover my ugliness, I might… No, I will be suspected. In fact, that was already a miracle we’ve made it that far without exposing the deception.
“Guess, I’ll have to play it stealthy for once… is that possible? I’m really not good at such things.”
Tsk, I had already forgotten that the path was a narrow one, without much hiding spot. Where the darkness should help, it would also prevent me from approaching silently. I had literally zero skill when it came to discretion and in the dark I would probably make enough noise to alert them before they even saw me.
My night vision may be above average, but it wasn’t a cat’s either, and the enhancing drug I used in my past to admire girls whatever the situation was one of the first things I had sold.
As if there would be such an easy solution. Then what? just wait without knowing when they’ll launch the counter attack? It's totally doable, personally, it didn't bother me more than that. But I had to do something about the morals of others.
Without any news they could suspect us. I didn't want anyone to try something stupid. Well the women seemed reliable to me, but the men were still doubtful, and we could only briefly discuss the situation.
“What do you expect? And even then, if you managed to get your hand into one of them, how would you extract the info? It is not certain that torture will get us anywhere.”
Well, on that point I had total confidence we could manage to make them spit up to their darkest secret, we had an incredible duo of experienced torturers at our disposal. They would definitely not resist Lily’s and Alev’s abuse for long, but again, this only mattered if we had someone to put under the question.
Especially after our previous work, he will probably kill himself before spitting the slightest words out of fear.
“Hum… ”
Eh? Did someone else speak?
“Yes. . . ” Wait, there’s no one there tho.
rustling
“Eh…Uh?” A shy pokemon pulling out my dress from the side appeared, what a cutie!!!!!! Hey I know this one! That's Jirachi!…
Joke aside, that was Alev’s protégé, I mean, her prey, her teasing toy, her mean to soothe her sexual frustra–SLAP
“I don’t know why but I suddenly had the irresistible urge to hit you. What were you thinking?”
“Sorry, professional deformation, a bad custom of mine.”
Alev 7th sense was terrifying! … Well as long as a girl has it, it was normally the case. I should really take care, my mind seems really easy to read these days.
“What’s the matter… . . . I don’t know your name and calling you Alev’s favorite would not do you any honor. I must admit you’ve tamed the beast in a way.” With a smile, as if not to scare a child I gave my attention to this shy and trembling little girls.
“Do you want another punch? Or a kick?” “Do you have a problem, Sera? Sorry, sis has her hands full of adult things, I can’t play with you for the moment.”
So her name was Sera, quite a fitting name she had if you ask me, a cute short name for a cute loli. Unlike someone else who actually hid a demon…
Bah, I’m sure that one isn’t normal either, there's no way a real little girl could let herself be abused by this obvious sexual predator who’s denying the fact.
“...Help…” The girl who was still holding my dress shook her head while uttering a single word. Her expression made me think of Lily when I was petting her head.
Looking at my dubious face, she continued her sentence. “I can help, I mean, you said you had to spy on the bad guys and lacked the means? I can provide one.”
