"So why did I have to come along as well?! Against my will even, isn't this a crime?! And you just had to play the hero and pamper their 'field trip'... I've got more important things to do!!!" [Takeo / Martial Lord]
Takeo grimaced with a foul expression and spat out his resentment towards Kains who had his eyes closed with a calm expression, and balled his grip into a fist directed towards him.
His animosity was extremely apparent at this point.
"Look, can you keep your bloody mouth shut?! You're been fucking complaining since awhile ago, when you've done nothing absolutely nothing this month besides bedding and harassing women on the streets?" [Shun / Berserker]
"Huuuhhh?! You think I wanted to come to this place? Who do you think is to blame, huuhhh?! I didn't join willingly, and now you want to control my attitude as well?! My presence here is not at your discretion, so you shut the fuck up!"
Takeo took an aggressive stance towards Shun, who had tried to cut him off.
If one would look at this a month back before they came to this world, they would not expect such a defiant attitude towards Shun, who was infamously known for being a delinquent back then.
But Takeo had become more and more of a megalomaniac now that he had acquired a taste for power that he was gifted with generously. He did not need to use it to understand how strong it was, but it was powerful enough to dominate the women he had bought.
The fact that he had brought along his 3 demihuman slaves to the expedition revealed his intentions of proving himself that he was not who he used to be anymore, and that he had power and authority to control people now.
"Please keep it closed before I break your jaw open."
But a single threat from Shun silenced his bravado.
"?! H-hmph, I can't be bothered with the likes of you! You 3, come over here!"
Seemingly intimidated by Shun, Takeo retreated and angrily ordered the slaves he had brought along with him in the carriage to service him.
----------------------------------------
Takeo had been called in by Shun's telepathy, but Shun had instead requested the cooperation of Princess Loraine to be on the other side of the call to 'kidnap' him into this expedition.
Shun was aware of Takeo's degeneracy ever since coming to this world.
His recent acts of perversion towards the emotionless female caretakers in their mansion could no longer satiate his libido, and he had begun focusing more on quality than quantity. He bought slaves, and tamed them with extreme plays.
Recently, Takeo had been coming over to the castle as a flippant skirt chaser as well, often times leering at Princess Loraine; the eldest of the 3 daughters of Emperor Edwin. Hearing the sweet voice of the princess speaking inside of his mind, the obvious honey trap successfully lured him over.
When he did arrive as expected, Shun knocked him out cold with a surprise attack and 'kidnapped' him into the carriages where the students were using for the expedition.
The expedition comprised of the 8 students in the hero's party, and 2 Knight Orders; the Silver Pegasus and the Silver Lion.
Since each Knight Order was a group that strictly consisted of 2 squads of 12 knights each among their ranks, there were 48 knights who accompanied the hero's party, along with the knight captain; Dmitri de Einsbalt who commanded the entire company. Each of these knights were at least level 25 and Dmitri himself was level 37, one of the renowned warriors known as the Oppressor in the Empire of Luna.
Dmitri was a man in his 40s who'd accumulated age over his years of service, but he was still a force to be reckoned with despite not being in his prime; still capable of commanding a large group of knights with composure. He had wine red hair and wore an armor with sharp edges carved like a lion on his chest. His solemn but vigilant expression over his slightly wrinkled face displayed his seniority and experience as a veteran in battle.
Incidently, Dmitri was in the carriage with the male students who were separated from the other 4 girls who took the other carriage behind them. The rest of the knights rode on their own horses in a formation around the carriage for the journey.
There was also supposed to be another knight captain, but he supposedly disappeared during the Bulwark Massacre.
This expedition was issued by the Emperor exactly for this reason. He wanted to find out the cause behind the Bulwark Massacre Incident.
----------------------------------------
Dmitri was glaring at Takeo silently, who was hoarding a large amount of space with his bulky body and the women he had brought along with him.
It was a deplorable fact that this boy had done so when they were clearly not having plans for sightseeing. In fact, Takeo seemed to be purposely ignorant of that fact and was having his 3 demihuman slaves serve him in front of the other 4 men in the carriage.
The 3 demihuman slaves were licking each part of his sweaty body revealing itself from his unbuttoned shirt made of expensive silk. Takeo was also groping the women everywhere to relieve his anger.
But there was one slave who was hesitating about it.
Noticing this with a perverted face, he squinted his eyes and called her out.
"Hmm? What's wrong, you're not licking?"
"Ah... I... In front of... the hero..."
This triggered Takeo greatly, when he realized the hidden connotation behind her words.
He found out very quickly that she was talking about Kains.
It was common knowledge who the 8 in the hero's party were the next day after the summoning ritual.
The Emperor had organized a large-scale holiday to announce the arrival of their saviors against the impending demonic forces of the Demon King.
And Kains, who was the titled Hero, received widespread recognition immediately within a month. Due to his hero status and his charming looks, many women in this world sought after him earnestly. This included slaves, who wanted to have a dream.
"Huuuhhh, you mean to say, you don't mind when it's just me... because... I'm not befitting the title of a hero...? Huuuhhh?! I don't want to make you experience the same thing as your sister, but I guess you leave me with no choice... RIGHTTT?! Huuuhhh?!"
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
"N-no... that's not what I meant...!!!"
The slave realized his master was furious, and quickly shook and lowered her head while trembling.
It was as if she had just recalled a traumatic experience.
Murder of slaves was prohibited as welfare for slaves had to be provided to them in order to sustain the contract legally, but some of the people who bought slaves still ignored this fact and mistreated them.
Takeo had killed one of his slaves accidentally during one of his torturous sex sessions, and had managed to kept the other 3 hush with some extreme acts which he justified as 'persuading'.
That was why there were only 3 slaves left instead of 4, but the guys did not know this.
They were also not aware of the fact that the slave collars were rigged to sever the head of the wearer if the Master and the slave are separated too far away from each other. While Takeo was 'kidnapped', the 3 slaves had to follow along closely to save their own lives.
Just then, Takeo had a great idea as his face twisted with pleasure.
One of his woman in front of his lower waist had made his reach his climax with her mouth, and he came up with something similar for the slave who had disobeyed his orders.
"Aaahhh... that feels good...,
...now it's your turn."
"Eh...?"
"What are you waiting for? It's the usual right? Take off your clothes and suck it while facing him. Now."
Takeo noticed that his slave had some kind of positive feelings towards Kains who was the hero, and he came up with a great idea to humiliate his slave and show his dominance among the men in this carriage.
"... ..."
"Or do you want something better?"
"!!! I-I'll do it! I'll do it! So please!"
"Good girl~"
Slowly taking her clothes off while the other men were looking, the slave began to tear up as she finished doing so and bent down to begin her service.
The adolescent boys were clearly a little disturbed from this as their faces became slightly red, but they averted their eyes slightly out of courtesy. Dmitri just continued staring at the Takeo with a displeased look.
Takeo had even repositioned sideways inside the carriage to show the immoral act in its entirety.
It was as if he wanted spectators.
The slurping noises could be heard by everyone present.
Ignoring the tears coming out of his slave, Takeo sunk his waist further in as he indulged in the pleasure.
It was an atrocious act to shame women like this publicly, but Takeo didn't care at all. He loved these kinds of situations where he could prove to others that he was a dominant male in this world. He wanted to wash clean of his previous and weak self.
Shun looked extremely pissed off with Takeo's actions while being sexually aroused.
In comparison, Kains still seemed to show almost no emotion besides mild embarassment towards this act. He was looking at Takeo, but it was as if he was thinking about something else entirely when he was doing so.
Unable to bear the situation any longer, Shun got up from his seat fully intending to stop Takeo's acts of immorality forcefully.
But Kains immediately held out a hand to stop him.
"But-!"
Kains shook his head with a stern expression on his face.
Clicking his tongue, Shun obeyed with an agitated grunt and returned to his seat.
Takeo took the lack of aggression and resentment as submission, and he felt even more satisfied than before while he finished again in the slave's mouth.
"Seeing you like that really makes me want to have a slave of my own~" [Ichiyo / Flame Wizard]
Urayama Ichiyo let out an amused voice, as he moved his hands obscenely around the butt of the demihuman slave sitting next to him. Then he moved on to her hair as he sniffed strongly on it, as if sampling a taste.
He had been doing so since awhile ago, as he acted upon his arousal from seeing his friend performing such devious acts in front of him. He became very touchy towards the demihuman slaves, who did not resist at all as they remained emotionless and unmoving like dolls.
Takeo didn't seem to mind his best friend molesting his possession. But he would, if his slaves found pleasure when he did so. There was only this thin of a line of compromise that he would go for his best friend.
"Well? Why don't you?" [Takeo]
"Well, you see... I kind of have someone I'm into already." [Ichiyo]
"Who? You need advice?" [Takeo]
"Nah, I doubt you can do anything about that... It's Mai." [Ichiyo]

"Mai... as in Uchida Mai from our class? ... Man... I didn't know you were into bitches.
...Well it's not like I don't know how you feel. Ravaging a fellow classmate who isn't faithful to one man, that turns me on slightly as well...~" [Takeo]
"Well, something like that. Though it seems that this time she's serious about her current relationship~" [Ichiyo]
"What?! No way! She is attached already? How come I've never heard about it?" [Takeo]
"Haha, well... that's because it's a private kind of relationship." [Ichiyo]
"...And you're still going after her despite that? I'd respectfully decline myself, I prefer taking virgins~" [Takeo]
"Because of that. I've made preparations to acquire her already, and they just had to come up with this trip for some 'hands-on learning'... that's super retarded. You can find everything in the library anyway, why bother." [Ichiyo]
Ichiyo had not been 'kidnapped', but he tagged along for an entirely different reason.
"Right?! And I see why I've never seen you come over lately, you've been busy eh?" [Takeo]
"Kekeke, yeah. Well it's a good opportunity to say the least, we're now going to see each other for a valid reason. There's no need to set anything up for a meet-up now~" [Ichiyo]
"Well good luck buddy, I'm rooting for you~" [Takeo]
"Hehe, will do~" [Ichiyo]
The 2 other male students in the carriage had heard the entirety of their conversation, but it seemed like Takeo and Ichiyo did not care in the slightest.
Dmitri did not had a good expression either, but he could not casually lay his hands on members in the hero's party. Kains's earlier gesture towards Shun also served as a warning to him as well.
Dmitri could only watch sternly as the two snickered between themselves, and indulged in their own filthy conversation.
They had now travelled a considerable distance from the main capital of the empire, as they approached the northwest of the country. The horses pulling the carriage never stopped because they were imbued with a skill by the coachmen: Stockpile Stamina LV3, which was something that could accumulate stamina days beforehand and it would prevent the target from reaching exhaustion until the amount accumulated with the skill ran out.
The horses still needed food and water however, so the coachmen stopped a few times to feed them.
The company had now arrived in Karnes, and close to Bulwark.
The passengers got off the carriage for a short break in the new city while the coachmen 'refueled' again.
They quick returned on track towards their destination.
Just then, the carriage stopped again.
But it hadn't been the regulated hour for refueling, so everyone was surprised.
Dmitri received a signal from the coachman at the front.
"Sir Knight Captain, it seems like there's an elf in front of our path gesturing us to stop advancing?"
"Hmm? An elf? ..."
Pondering to himself, he quickly gestured outside the window for his attendant knight riding on a horse parallel to the carriage.
"Captain Dmitri, you called?"
"Yes. Is there anyone among you guys that can speak the elven tongue?"
"No. There isn't, I believe."
"...That's what I thought as well. I don't remember anyone of us knowing something like that..."
Since they were stuck like this, Dmitri decided to get off the carriage and negotiate himself.
In the worst case scenario, he would move the elf away by force.
He didn't know that the students had the ability: Worldly Language Comprehension, and that Takeo and Ichiyo were unwilling to get off the carriage by themselves.
"I'll go. Us humans from another world have the ability to convert language conveniently with one of our skill."
"? Oooh, that will help alot! As expected of Mister Kains!" Dmitri was pleasantly surprised at Kains's sudden remark.
He took a glance at the ugly expressions on the two who were clearly not as cooperative, and returned to show gratitude towards Kains.
"Wait Kains, I'll take a look too."
"Alright, let's go."
Leaving the other two in the carriage, the three men went forward to see the reason for the obstruction.
