Chapter 316: The Four in the Underground Cell, and the Sweet Treatment

"This way."

With Sheena in the lead me, Yuki following, and descending the stairs continuing to the basement where Lilli, Yanica, and Elmegaldo were.

At the place finished descending the stairs an iron door, and passing through that out to the basement where Freit’s To-Dule Laura previously connected.

The same as Freit inserted the magic grant item into the hole in the wall, and the whole room brightened.

But no one in the room.

"Nn? No one."

"No in front."

Sheena pointed at the door in the depths of the basement.

When we went to in front of that door Sheena opened the door.

When the door fully opened the other side of the door that was pitch black brightened.

Beyond the door sandwiching the passage three cells on the right and left each.

In the nearest on the right Lilli, in the depths Yanica, in the farthest an unfamiliar woman put.

In the farthest cell on the left a naked woman lying face up.

That probably Elmegaldo.

Thought maybe collapsed, but because Sheena the healing specialist not even looking at the appearance well the condition fine, probably.

"M-Master!?"

When I looking around the room Lilli and Yanica surprised raised voices.

Whether the darkness suddenly brightened both narrowing their eyes.

Then Lilli approached me as much as possible in the cell and gripped the iron bars and put out her face.

"Master already fine!?"

Lilli called out to me.

The moment I attacked by disgust again and goosebumps stood.

"A-ah. Already fine..."

Somehow endured and replied to Lilli.

"Really fine? Face color bad!? That poison apparently special made by Aldat so quite strong. Better rest a little more!"

Regarding the belly stabbed by Lilli and the poison called magic drug recovered and really no problem, but Lilli seemed not taking that.

Well the mood bad for a different reason a fact.

I hearing Lilli’s voice became worse in mood and bowed my head covering the face with the right hand.

Immediately Sheena leaned close to me and cast magic.

Unknown what magic, but the mood calming.

"..."

When the mood calmed quite and raised the face somehow Lilli sitting leaning her back to the back wall and burying her face in the raised knees.

"Sorry... sorry... sorry... uu..."

Sobs beginning to be heard, and the voice apologizing heard.

At that time I trusted Lilli.

After that became unable to think anything, but even in that state think continued trusting Lilli.

Indeed Lilli stabbing me the starting point, but something thought, and at the end trying to help me.

That I understood too.

Wanted to convey that to Lilli blaming herself, but the mood became bad again and could not put out a voice either.

"Master Hiroyuki..."

Sheena and Yuki supported the staggering me from both sides.

Then passed Lilli’s cell and passed the next Yanica’s cell.

Yanica too leaning to the back wall and looking this way with a face as if crushing a bitter insect.

The same as Lilli knowing Yanica not betraying me either.

Such things dark elf Yanica good at so anyway tried to get out of the cell and obtain a chance, probably.

From Lilli saying stopping the mastermind woman by some means to help me understood too.

But...

I could not call out.

When I passing in front of Yanica’s cell Yanica tried to stop me but in the end said nothing.

I not called out either.

"Damn..."

Cursed myself who could do nothing.

Then arrived at the farthest cell.

"Different from what heard."

The woman who was in the cell muttered looking at me.

Looking no injury,

The same as Yanica standing leaning her back to the stone wall.

Age early 20s, maybe.

The face combining cuteness and beauty with an expression wrapping bewitchingness too.

Floating a smile toward me, but a dangerous smile to the degree thinking if not careful would be taken in.

"Succubus... ?"

"Yes, right. Met at the ’mansion’ but again nice to meet you. I the succubus Idol Ril. Mother caused trouble."

The woman in the cell = Idol said that then separated her back from the stone wall and bowed her head with a solemn face.

Bat-like wings visible on the back.

Whether to put out those wings the black clothes Idol wearing the back largely open.

Idol raised her head then floated a bewitching smile again.

"Then what about me. Fine if becoming your plaything?"

Hearing the words Idol said Yuki and Sheena clinging to my both hands pulled my hands with the two.

Looking at the two’s faces both shaking their heads with expressions as if appealing something.

"Then will make me a Dule?"

I floated a wry smile at the two’s appearance then directed mockery to Idol and asked provocatively.

"No way! No second dance of Mother!"

Idol shrugged and denied.

Idol’s mother... ah I broke the soul vessel.

"But if making me a Dule happily will."

Idol twisted her body and directed an expression further increasing bewitchingness as if charming me.

But the moment not to the degree charmed the mood became bad.

Brushed away the right hand Yuki gripping and covered the face.

"Ara too early for a child, maybe."

Idol provoked but no leeway for me to respond to that.

I supported by Yuki and Sheena left Idol’s cell.

"Disappointing."

Idol’s muttering voice faintly heard.

Opposite Idol’s cell the cell Elmegaldo should be.

The one lying face up on the stone floor that Elmegaldo, apparently, but not moving even a twitch.

The skin of the back and buttocks torn on the whole surface and red lines visible.

Probably hit with a whip.

Several blue bruises on the hands and feet, and looking closely both hands and feet the nails peeled.

"This... terrible."

I reapplied the right hand covering the face to the mouth.

Separately no vomiting sensation, but because surprised by the too terribleness.

Sheena somehow held a key in hand inserted into the cell’s door and opened.

Elmegaldo’s face facing the depths of the cell so I squatted with the stone wall at the back so the face visible.

Elmegaldo’s face terrible appearance too.

The whole face swollen becoming about double.

If not said Elmegaldo completely unknown who.

"Faa... faau... he... he..."

Slightly opened the swollen eyes streaming tears and appealing something to me in a withered voice.

Whether the lips swollen too air leaking from the mouth and the voice not large so unknown what saying.

This maybe worse than when handed over from the punishment ground?

I hugged Elmegaldo’s body.

"Hya... hyaaa... aaa..."

When my hands touched the body Elmegaldo began trembling and raised a voice like a weak scream.

Seeming resisting but the body and hands and feet almost not moving.

Hugged Elmegaldo with both hands so the front of the body visible.

Looking the chest and belly terrible too.

All the skin peeled to the degree lines visible the same as the back.

The breasts several wounds as if torn open.

These whip scars too, probably.

The faintly oozed blood attaching to my clothes.

"Faa... faau... hehe..."

Elmegaldo again put out a weak voice.

Saying "help", maybe?

Should help...

Looking at Sheena floating a troubled expression.

Yuki with a cold expression as if looking at a stone fallen on the roadside.

"Sheena. No problem like this?"

Like this not die of exhaustion?

Thought that and asked.

"There is a problem. Germs will enter from the wounds, and places blood not circulating will necrose I think. Both hands and feet the tips already blackened so necrosis progressing. Like this from the necrosed places toxin circulating the body and danger to life too. Though until then the possibility of dying of exhaustion higher."

Sheena while smiling wryly explained Elmegaldo’s condition matter-of-factly.

Well said in front of the person, but Sheena having thoughts too, probably.

Elmegaldo slightly shook her head and directed clinging eyes to me.

"Sheena at least heal to the place no problem with life."

"Understood."

While thinking too sweet asked Sheena, and Sheena shrugged as if saying no choice and directed both hands to Elmegaldo.

Sheena’s long prayer echoed in this room made of stone ceiling wall and floor.

In no time Elmegaldo’s whole body’s wounds healing.

The face swelling settled too and the original pretty face completing.

"Fuu. Finished."

Sheena stopped shading the hand to Elmegaldo’s body and sighed and stood up.

Elmegaldo’s body completely returned to original.

"Uu no more, no more so please forgive, forgiveness..."

Despite all the body’s wounds healed Elmegaldo while crying begging me for forgiveness.

But I could not forgive.

Because the Dules’ anger not settled.

"For now still be here."

I accompanied by Yuki and Sheena went out of the cell.

"Noa! Forgive! Let out from here! No more!"

The stood Elmegaldo approached me who left the cell while shouting and clung to the iron bars.

Then stretched hands seeking me.

Somehow now felt like could make Elmegaldo a Dule.

But though seeming able for some reason my mood not rising.

Behind Lilli sitting in the corner of the cell burying her face between the knees, Yanica standing leaning her back to the stone wall frowning, Idol standing the same as Yanica looking at me with cold eyes, and Elmegaldo pressing her full breasts to the iron bars shouting while stretching hands toward me we left the room.

...

That night.

I was in the room with Yuki two.

Since then not meeting faces with the Dules other than Yuki and Sheena.

No Sheena not my Dule.

Well not meeting faces with anyone else so maybe better to rephrase only met faces with Yuki and Sheena.

...Angry at myself who could not even call out one voice to the Dules.

Then thinking what the Dules thinking now the mood became heavy.

Beside such sinking me only Yuki.

Sheena went to the dining hall to eat dinner, and I decided to take dinner in my room.

On the table in the room put the dinner Yuki carried.

After that Yuki because unable to eat stood beside me and served.

I took dinner alone.

Yuki not speaking one word, and I without talking anything carried the dishes to the mouth.

Tasteless, really tasteless dinner.

Yuki not speaking because a Te-Dule.

Te-Dules in the Dules a lower class than To-Dules.

To-Dules stipulated not to put out words themselves in public places, and Te-Dules inheriting that.

Here not a public place inside a private residence so such social constraints not applying, but because having to habituate such things daily voluntarily executing the constraints as a Dule even inside the private residence.

By the way Sheena a Ji-Dule so such constraints fewer than To-Dules or Te-Dules.

Sheena the Ji-Dule of my A-Dule Rosina so the treatment lower than my direct Te-Dule Yuki, but the class as a Dule upper a strange relationship.

Now Yuki standing beside me as serving, but only two in this room so no one in front of my eyes.

No talking voices too, but no one in front of the eyes a cause of loneliness too, probably.

"Yuki can stand there a little?"
