“Hey… Uh-oh!”
The woman fell to the ground. Her eyes turned white, and bubbles formed from her mouth.
“Did she get bitten already!? Zell!” Bash exclaimed.
“Roger!” In response to Bash’s words, Zell danced right above the injured woman, as usual. It was an act that would be frowned upon if performed among fairies, but if done over an injured person, it was an admirable medical procedure. The woman’s body was quickly sprinkled with fairy dust, and her wounds healed in an instant. The torn fingers, scratches all over her body, large gashes on her neck, shredded wing membranes, and the cruelly crushed eye were all healed within seconds.
Zell descended to the ground and circled around the woman. Then, when she saw that there was no trace of a spider bite on her external wounds, she turned back to Bash.
“Hmm. It doesn’t seem like she was bitten. The wounds are a bit deep, but nothing serious, and it seems like she just passed out due to a nervous attack…”
“I see…” For Bash, this was the demon beauty he had finally encountered. He had Sequence’s permission to keep her. He didn’t want her to die in a place like this. “Is she going to be my wife…?”
But even so, she was hotter than a biscuit. She wasn’t as voluptuous as a succubus, but she had a slender figure overall. Her arms and legs were quite large and plump in proportion to her body, and she had long, sharp claws. Some of her nails were broken, as if she had fought a tough battle.
Her hair was as disheveled and unkempt as any of the women he had seen lately. Demons usually had beautiful hair, perhaps due to their motto of being elegant on the battlefield… But it was normal for a warrior on the battlefield to have messy hair. She wasn’t the type of woman who would worry about her hair even while lying on the verge of death. However, he perceived an ineffable elegance in her long hair, which reached down to her waist.
She also had a tail. It was a fine and beautiful tail from her waist to her knees, similar to that of a lizard but with thick hair at the tip.
She also had wings. They resembled those of a succubus, but they seemed more adorned. The flying ability of demons was probably greater.
And then, Bash had a small question.
“Do any of the demon clans have wings like this…?”
“Hmm, I don’t know, I don’t recognize them either,” Zell replied.
Bash nodded in response to Zell’s words. But when he thought about it, it wasn’t so surprising.
“But I’ve never really looked closely at a demon before.”
“…That’s right. Demons don’t like being stared at.”
There was something that demons always said when they saw someone looking at them for too long: “There’s one of those vulgar orcs staring at me so intently.” Demons looked down on orcs and fairies, but perhaps it was because they were a race that didn’t like being looked at in the first place. It was said that individuals of some races would start fights if stared at for too long. Beastmen, for example, were one of those races. Many demons had special magical eyes, so it wasn’t uncommon for prolonged staring to be considered aggression.
Furthermore, as far as Bash knew, there were many types of demons. The most common was the lesser demon with brown skin, but there were also higher-ranking ones with blue skin and multiple eyes. Demon aristocrats, even though they shared the same family name, looked completely different from each other. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that there were as many different appearances of demons as there were names. It was not surprising that there were unknown subspecies among them. After all, Bash was not familiar with their appearances.
The important thing was that the woman in front of him was extremely beautiful. Beyond her appearance, he felt a mysterious charm and strength emanating from her entire body. To the point of giving him chills.
…
He had Sequence’s permission. Bash could keep the demon women who went out to defeat the dragon. In other words, the woman belonged to Bash at this moment. The day had come when his long and arduous journey would finally be rewarded. Bash would take the woman. It was now that his animalistic desires would be unleashed. But his hand stopped just before touching her.
“I have permission from Sequence, but not from the woman herself.”
Sexual relations without consent with another species were prohibited by the Orc King. Yes, he had the general’s permission, so he was allowed to do it. But could it truly be said so?
Let’s say the Orc King told someone, “Yes, you can kill Bash.” If that person were to attack Bash, would he just let himself be killed right away? The answer is no. The Orc King hadn’t ordered Bash to die.
On the other hand, if this person were to attack Bash while he was sleeping, Bash would mistrust the Orc King. He would think that the Orc King didn’t respect his honor. In other words, Sequence’s honor might not be protected. If he slept with her while she was asleep, it could be considered unauthorized sexual activity.
“I will wait until she wakes up…” Bash decided. If he explained the situation to her after she woke up, she wouldn’t say no. Demons, like orcs, obeyed the orders of their superiors. He would probably never have another opportunity to acquire such a fine jewel, so he had to be very careful.
“Shouldn’t we take her back? Demons are skeptical, so even if she hears that you have permission, Mister, she might not believe you.”
Yes, demons were skeptical. If he told her that Sequence had given him permission, she could kick him out of the cave while calling him a fool.
As an example, he would never forget the incident after defeating Leto, the Hero. He had the opportunity to tell the demons about Gediguz’s death, and when he explained what had happened, they flat out refused to believe it, saying that a lowly pig like him could never have defeated Leto, the Hero. And he shouldn’t have delusions of grandeur by claiming to have defeated the man who had killed Lord Gediguz.
“Mm, that’s for sure.” Bash nodded at Zell’s words, lifted the woman and placed her over his shoulder. When her rear end was near his face, he smelled something he had never smelled before. Her skin was soft and smooth. The idea of having this woman in his arms filled the symbolic orc part of Bash with a sense of anticipation and accomplishment. It was a climactic moment. Thinking back, every orc would bring home their defeated woman in this manner. All orcs must have lived with these same sensations. Bash was fortunate to be able to experience the same feeling after the war had ended. Thinking this, Bash walked straight to the cave entrance and stopped.
“It’s dawn.”
“…The blizzard has stopped. That’s not good.”
The weather in the mountains was unpredictable. The sun was shining on the mountain where there should have been a blizzard just minutes ago. The sky was still cloudy, but beneath them were the base of the mountain and the snowfields at the foot. Bash’s experienced eyes would immediately be able to discern if there were any creatures there. If it was the dragon that made this its territory, even more so. He wouldn’t overlook an obvious enemy.
“We can’t leave like this…”
Bash immediately abandoned the idea of going back. He wouldn’t stand a chance against a dragon flying in the sky. And even if he had just obtained an exquisite woman, it would mean nothing if the dragon killed him on his way back.
“It seems we’ll have to wait here for a while.”
“I suppose so…” Zell said as well, looking up at the sky.
“At least we can wait until it starts snowing again. There’s no rush.”
They just had to wait for another snowstorm and then return to the fortress. Just in case, they had brought enough food to feed the woman as well. Orcs were a race with a voracious appetite, but even if they didn’t eat for a long time, they wouldn’t die. And if the need arose, they could give the woman the food that would be enough for Bash. And if the dragon returned, this time they could finish it off. As long as they fought in the cave, Bash would not be defeated.
“And then I will finally have a wife of my own…”
“About that, Mister…”
“What?”
Zell was one of the most cautious fairies, capable of considering the food for the day, even the snacks they would eat three days later.
“Demon women are proud, aren’t they?”
“Right.”
“I feel like even if you make her your wife, she might not listen to you at all. On the contrary, she might immediately forget that you saved her and return to her country… ‘I became your wife, I got married, but I didn’t say I would have children with you. I want a divorce!’ Or something like that!”
“That’s absurd… or maybe… it could happen…”
Now that he thought about it, it wouldn’t be strange coming from a demon. When demon troops saw that they were outnumbered, they would cheer when reinforcements arrived. In the midst of battle, they would say, ‘We’re saved!’, ‘Orcs are good at what they do!’. But when the battle ended and they were satisfied, they acted as if such a thing had never happened. Orcs expected a ‘Thank you for your hard work’, but more often than not, they would be scolded with a ‘What were you doing that you arrived so late?’. That’s why it wouldn’t be surprising if this demon abandoned her duties as a wife and ran away.
“If you want a demon to be a proper wife, you have to treat her as an equal!”
“Equal to a demon, huh…”
The woman seemed scared now, but it was possible that she would soon start looking down on Bash. If that happened, there would be no way for them to have a conversation. If that was the case, then he believed it would be better to establish a relationship with her while she was still vulnerable. Demons only listened when they were weak.
“Do you think we can do that?”
“Even if I can’t, we’ll find a way! This is our chance! I’ll show her how manly you are and make her fall in love with you while she’s still weak! You came to her rescue! She was saved! You’re strong! The woman is weak! Demons can be imposing, but you have to let her know that she and you are equals, Mister!”
“Hmm… I see.”
“Now, before she wakes up, let’s think of a plan!”
“Right!”
And so, with the sleeping woman in front of them, they began their strategy meeting.
Frizcop: Lol, I understand what they are doing and what their goal is, but that way of saying it makes it sound really, really bad haha
