My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem

After eating a delicious meal, we returned to the city. I appeared just outside of town so we could be seen re-entering it. It was a pain, but I brought the salt rocks out of my inventory and spread them out so everyone carried some. I didn’t want to expose any of my tricks. As for Raissa, she had already seen quite a bit of what I could do and hadn’t told anyone, so I was trusting her. Well, she was hired by the Princess, so if she did betray my trust, it’d be like betraying the country.

“C-Customer confidentiality! I’d never!” She said when I probed about such an occurrence.

It sounded like this kind of concept came with the job. After all, dungeons were a source of unimaginable wealth. If a group had their tricks, gains, or success revealed to disreputable people, it could cause a lot of problems. This was a matter of safety.

We returned back to the city, heading to the provided address for the delivery of salt. When I saw the person responsible, I almost dropped the salt.

“You again!”

“Ah, you picked up my order. Master said it was a waste of time and no one would ever do it, but you saved us. I was going to have to go up there tomorrow and get it myself.”

The redheaded girl I had kept running into turned out to be the one who had placed the order for salt.

“You’re Rubee?”

“Hehe… you can call me Roob if you prefer. That’s perfect, set it over there. My quenching brine formula requires a lot of salt. Ah, but it also tastes good on food, so…”

As she said, she was looking at me. I did keep some salt for meals, but I didn’t really need that much. I had already bought some in the capitol long before this. It was a lot pricier though. When I noticed her giving me a puppy-dog look, I noticed what her last words were implying.

“What is that? I’m not cooking for you!”

“But that stew you made was good!” She was almost drooling, “When will you cook for the town again?”

“That was a one-time thing. How can I afford to feed a hundred people daily?”

“Eh? Aren’t you some kind of rich lord?”

“So, you know. That makes your asking even more inappropriate!”

“Come on… you can have my body…”

“Selling your body for stew…” I shook my head. “Have some self-respect!”

“Don’t be like that,” She persisted. “After all, we’ve been naked in bed together and even made it a few bases. We-we’re practically family.”

“What the hell kind of relationships do you have with your family?” I backed out of the shop, retreating strategically.

“Please, I want to taste your meat.” She followed, her eyes still full of desire and her lips moving like she could taste it already.

“Why do I feel like I’m being sexually harassed?”

I grabbed the girls and immediately took off. She followed for a bit, still begging, but as I picked up the pace, she finally sighed and gave up. I let out a breath when she finally turned back to the blacksmith shop.

Actually, because of that, I hadn’t even collected the reward. Did she do that on purpose so she didn’t have to pay me? I must have imagined it. However, somewhere in the back of my head, I thought that this crazy dwarf might very well do something so unreasonable.

We continued on back to the inn, but when we reached it, there was a bunch of horses in front. When we pushed our way into the commons, I saw a group of ten knights. They had come much faster than I had expected.
