37. Pressure

crumpled- crumpled-

The water in the bath, where the mass of two people increased, continued to ripple, and at some point it began to calm down.

However, as the waves calmed down, the heat of the two people sitting next to each other was clearly felt.

‘Why are you sitting right next to me? ?’

There was a faint scent of soft feminine scent. As both sides smelled a similar but slightly different scent, the young body reacted quickly.

Theresia saw this and burst into laughter.

“ha ha ha! Master, do you open your eyes like a man?”

Puck puck, Theresia sitting on the left began to slap Ian on the back as she said that. From her point of view, she wouldn’t hit it too hard, but it was a shock that was hard to withstand with a normal person’s body.

Thanks to you, I almost opened my eyes without realizing it, but I desperately endured it.

As he closed his eyes so tightly, Theresia began to kick her tongue as if it wasn’t funny.

“Master, was your age around 16 this year?”

“… … seventeen.”

“Oh, what? Aren’t you old enough to have a child already? Have you had any experience?”

There were ten years older in soul age, but this physical body was probably seventeen. When she replied that she was one year older, Theresia said, “Isn’t that okay?” She pulled Ian’s hair and put a headlock on it.

More than the pain of the headlock, the sensation of wanting to feel the soft touch on the back of the head was more pronounced. Thanks to him, I didn’t know the pain, and I could only feel the unidentified tenderness over and over again.

“Wow, what are you doing!”

‘ah.’

Anna pulled Ian away and freed him from Theresia’s arms. When I am feeling very regretful, this time, a bigger lump of fat is buried on my face than before.

“Did you forget that your body is far stronger than the Master!? Look! Your back is all red!”

“… … I don’t think it’s my fault, is it?”

“What-! You hit me like that a while ago!”

Saying so, Anna began to gently caress the backboard that Theresia had slapped. He felt a slightly hard hand on his slightly bitter back, and then an unknown cool energy enveloped his entire body.

“Master, are you okay?”

“Um, uh… … .”

With her head buried in her chest, Ian could not open her mouth and only shook her head slightly. Seeing this, Anna sighed in relief as if she was happy.

And it was impossible for Theresia to remain still even after seeing it. She thought of a number of ways to torment that self-proclaimed paladin with strong chastity.

“Hey, by the way, it’s bold to say that.”

“yes… … ? What other nonsense are you talking about?”

“Look, what are you doing to rub your chest like that after telling your master that you don’t feel s*xual desire at all?”

“So what is that… … Ahhh-.”

It was then that Anna realized that she had been burying Ian in her chest. Here, she chose not to push Ian away, but to hug her even more.

There is a possibility of spying if you are far away, but if you stick to it, you won’t be able to see anything.

Thanks to that, Ian, who was crushed by the hydraulic pressure, felt his breath suffocating and patted Anna’s forearm.

Such a signal could not reach the embarrassed Anna, and Ian endured the suffocating pressure until Ian realized that he had to reverse summon them.

“Ha, ha, ha, ha… … .”

Whoa, Ian, who was barely free, washed his face with the bath water and turned his head back. The hot and humid baths were not well oxygenated.

As I was about to get up, thinking that I must have enjoyed the bath anyway, and that I had to leave now, someone opened the door and entered the bath.

“It was still there.”

“… … Duke?”

“How long have you been?”

“No, not long ago.”

“A little more.”

“… … Yes?”

Whether Ian was bewildered or not, Duke Iritz entered the bathhouse where Ian was and settled down.

Fortunately, he didn’t occupy himself right next to him in this expansive bath.

However, the awkward silence could not be stopped.

* * *

Shoot ah-.

A statue of a lion’s head constantly spits water into the bath.

The water that has fallen so far supplies clean water to the bath and makes a clear sound.

The only noise in the quiet bathroom.

‘uncomfortable… … .’

It was uncomfortable to be in the bathroom with the summoners, but it was a pleasant inconvenience.

But this silence is an unpleasant inconvenience. Perhaps he was aware of that fact, Duke Iritz opened his mouth in a low voice.

“Do you have a lover?”

“… … Yes?”

“No. Because he wouldn’t be foolish enough to touch a guy who has a lover.”

The words he suddenly brought out were extremely private and privacy-related. Thanks to that, I couldn’t decide what to say, so I kept quiet.

Unlike other children who are ten years younger than me, he is a giant who has lived close to my ship.

Even if we met in real life, it is not easy to even talk about a being who has no choice but to maintain an uncomfortable relationship as it is now, meeting with such a young body.

“Then who do you like?”

“No… … It is.”

“Oh, no?”

“Yes.”

“It’s nonsense.”

“… … yes?”

“Isn’t there my daughter? To say you didn’t fall for that boy, you’re lying.”

And at that moment, all the fantasies he had in him begin to shatter. He was often referred to as an out-of-arms.

Duke Hypnos suddenly looked up at the ceiling and fell into memories.

“When that child was first born into the world, I… … .”

After that, the Duke spit out pride and praise for Stella. The quiet bathroom was filled with his voice in an instant. I must have been such a noisy person.

However, the more I listen to the story, the more I start to feel a sense of disparity.

“… … Stella didn’t seem to think so.”

“—What do you know about that child?”

“No, what… Sometimes, friends your age are more comfortable than parents. Anyway-.”

The Duke said that he loved her very much and that he would not spare any support.

Stella herself seemed to think she was raised by a father who was full of responsibility as a nobleman.

Where does this difference come from?

“It looks like you don’t show this to Stella at all.”

“… … okay. I can’t help it. I am the Duke of Iritz, and that child is the Princess of Iritz.”

An unarmed father and a solemn duke are incompatible.

He chose duty between home and duty.

Under the obligation to protect mankind, Stella has lived in oppression.

“Why are you telling me that… .”

“I told you. Do not cross the line.”

“Yes.”

“I have changed my mind—Come in as Daryl son-in-law. Ian-kun.”

“No, so suddenly… … ?”

He had just set the blade up like that a few days ago, and I didn’t understand what had changed him like this.

But Duke Stella didn’t seem to like it too much. Her face was half contorted, as if it was a waste to give Stella to someone like me.

“Actually, I still don’t like you.”

“Then why… … .”

“Because I knew you were a summoner with great abilities.”

A three-star Summoner who can receive a large territory and count at any time if desired.

No matter how many, what is lacking is the summoner. If he can bring such a three-star pet to his territory, he will do whatever it takes.

“Stella is several times more expensive, but… Even if I yield a hundred steps or a thousand steps, it doesn’t suit you, but if it’s for the sake of humanity, it’s tolerable.”

In this savage world where even the proper summoning method has not been established, the summoner who summoned a 3-star summoner is judged to have a good seed.

Stella is also a talented person who summoned a 3-star summoned beast with only my luck.

If you have a relationship with the same person who summoned a 3-star pet, the baseless belief that the child will also summon at least a 3-star pet will blossom.

Eugenics of another world. It lacks logic and rationale, but if there is any hope, the duke who is noble to the core has no choice but to choose.

But.

“sorry.”

“… … Are you going to decline my request?”

“Yes.”

“Hey, can I ask why?”

“Simple.”

The duke’s thoughts are far into the future.

I have a child, and that child has another child… … A long-term plan to increase the power of mankind as a whole.

A thought that would be common to aristocrats who have passed on a family line from generation to generation.

Too late.

“Too slow.”

“slow… ?”

“yes. Giving birth to a child, waiting for the child to summon the summons again… Where is the time for that?”

When that time passes, my ego will be overtaken by ‘Ian Clark’.

I’m still living a high-density life, so you want me to get married and have children here?

“In three years, everything is over.”

“ha ha ha. Ian-kun. Do you understand what you are talking about?”

“Does the Duke give you a lot of support too? Then I can avoid sending my precious daughter-in-law to a gnome like me.”

ha ha ha.

Me and the Duke burst out laughing at the same time.

The laughter of the two mixed and occupied the inside of the bathroom.

And after a while, the laughter stops.

“It’s fun. It’s really fun. I thought he was just talented, but he was also witty.”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

“It’s not a compliment. but… … Yes, it looks like it’s worth the investment in you.”

“… … The story?”

“Hey, did I say that you can’t even get subsidies from your hometown?”

“Yes.”

When I looked at him with my heart, Duke Hypnos inflated his chest muscles and opened his mouth.

“When you return, take the card from the servant. Don’t worry about money.”

“… … thank you.”

I sincerely bowed my head and thanked you.

How hard life was without money… … Now I am freed from that life.

The allowance given by the craftsman… … Thank you!

He was a duke who simply handled meals by himself every day, but for today, he invited Stella to have a meal alone.

The duke, who sat alone with his daughter, sliced the steak with a firm expression on his face. Only the rattling of knives in the bowl filled the dining room.

Hearing the sound, the duke looked at Stella and roared.

“It’s noisy. Should I relearn dining etiquette from scratch?”

“… … sorry.”

Stella, who was slicing the meat, stopped slicing and quietly wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin.

always like this The duke is so strict that he can’t do anything in front of him. It’s hard to catch your breath because your heart is pounding.

“Be careful.”

“… … Yes, Father.”

A primordial fear that had been forgotten after going to the academy for several months slowly rises.

In front of others, she is a princess of the duke family, but in front of the duke, she is nothing more than a mouse in front of a cat.

Stella, whose mouth was dry, naturally reached out with a glass of water. While he was drinking water carefully, the duke opened his mouth.

“Marry Ian.”

“Puu-eup—!”

Kek, Kolok!

With Sare, she sprayed water from her mouth, staining the duke’s face, and squeaking continuously.

And when she finally stopped coughing, she thought as she looked at the duke’s face, which had been stained with her own saliva.

Oh, it was a big deal.
