Oukoku e Tsuzuku Michi

Chapter 451: 451

It actually didn’t matter whether I listened to the suspicious girl claiming to be Wilhelmina’s messenger or not .

I don’t know if she’s really who she says, but even if she is, there is already nothing to discuss . We can settle everything on the battlefield .

「If you want to talk, do it quickly . I have to get up early for a campaign tomorrow . 」

I mount the woman laid spread eagle on the bed in the missionary position, put my hand under her flank and shake my hips while I listen to her .

Her body is voluptuous and full-figured, just the way I like it .

「Then I will get straight―― uugh! Fu, fufu…… the rumors were right, it’s practically a club . 」

With sweat running down her brow, she throws her limbs on the bed and continues, yielding control of her body to me .

「I will get straight to the point . Her Majesty wants Hardlett-sama to surrender . 」

「Are you stupid?」

I instantly reject her, cover her back with my body and swing my hips while sucking on her nape .

Every time I sucked on her neck, she let out a sweet gasp, although she remained persistent .

「Her Majesty acknowledges that the state of battle is tilting in favor of Goldonia . However, she is confident that they will not progress any further . It must be difficult to deal with the powerful weapons and the changing of sides of the citizens . 」

Tristan’s comment about South Yuguria fighting differently is clearly because Wilhelmina got directly involved .

Taking advantage of the peasants also makes perfect sense knowing how skilled she is in plotting and strategizing .

I grab and hold down the woman’s wrist in a fit of frustration and slam my hips against her .

A groan escapes her lips and her face twists from the force of impact as she shakes her head in refusal, yet she doesn’t fumble her words .

It seems she is quite familiar with the entertainment derived from the time a man gets violent .

「There is still a fierce struggle for supremacy . Things can be settled quickly if you simply surrender . 」

「I don’t care . I already said I wouldn’t surrender, so there’s no point trying to talk to me about the war . 」

I separate from her briefly and then pull the woman up by her arms .

One look at me was enough to prompt her to get on all fours on the bed and turn her ass in my direction .

She has a full understanding of me . It’s such a waste she’s an enemy messenger .

I lower one knee behind the woman, place my hands on either side of her slender waist and connect our genitals again .

「Aaah! It’s one size bigger than expected……no, it’s two sizes longer and thicker…… . Ahem, I know it is an unreasonable request for you to surrender, that’s why I have an extraordinary condition for you . 」

「I already said I won’t do it . 」

If South Yuguria wins, Wilhelmina will be the supreme ruler .

Even if she promises me half the world, all it takes is for her to change her mind, and it wouldn’t matter .

I switch my thrusts to a deeper variety and plunge into the depths of her vaginal canals .

Despite the woman’s voice becoming strained and her hands gripping the sheets tightly, she continues trying to convince me .

「The conversion of Malt’s entire territory which you possessed before the start of war, naturally, in addition the cession of a large portion of land ranging from former Treia kingdom territory to former Vandolea territory adjacent to Hardlett-sama’s domain――」

I no longer think about replying and pound the woman relentlessly from behind, pulling her arms back as I do so .

She shrieks as her body trembles and eventually her pussy clenches around my dick, giving me the impression that she climaxed .

「Would you at least give it some thought?」

Through pants and moans, she still manages to squeeze out the crucial parts of the negotiation .

「No . Supposing I didn’t have loyalty to Goldonia, I can’t trust you guys after all you’ve done in the past . Besides, I don’t really want territory . 」

That triggered the woman’s eyes to sparkle .

Her body and submissive nature relaxed me and caused me to say too much .

She reaches behind herself and slowly pulls out my member .

Then, using feather-like touches, gently pushes my chest and encourages me to lay on the bed .

I don’t have any particular reason to resist .

「If you accept the proposal, I can present you with 1 million gold on the spot . ……uuuuu!」

She mounts me and, without teasing, lowers her hips right on my dick .

As her body arches backward, she rests her hands on my thighs for support, and she rocks her hips back and forth in a slow rhythm .

「I’m not crazy about money . 」

Staying silent would obviously be the correct choice in order to prevent carelessly committing to anything, but it’s difficult to keep absolutely quiet when our bodies are entwined like so .

「Then how about women?」

「Women, you say?」

Crap . I reacted again .

She brings her body forward, placing her hands on my chest instead, and lowers her face close enough to me that I can see the pupils of her blue eyes .

「One thousand…… if you accept the deal right now, I can offer you a thousand beautiful women . Wielding the power of Her Majesty has, nobody can oppose you, and you can be as rough――」

The woman takes my hand, guiding it to her own neck and indicating with a choking gesture .

「Or be as loving――」

Her hand shifts my hand down and uses it to massage her breast .

「And you can impregnate―― all of them as you wish . 」

She drags my hand down to her abdomen and rubs soft circles around her navel .

I was somewhat excited from her womb accepting me .

「To pour the symbol…… of a strong man…… thick seed……into a young woman…… a sexy lady…… a mature beauty……until it overflows……」

I close my eyes to feign composure, but I can’t help getting aroused from the prospect of impregnating a thousand women .

Furthermore, she says it in such a taunting manner .

My penis is twitching against my iron will .

I thought I gave her an opening to take advantage of, but the woman surprisingly doesn’t exploit it .

She quietly hugs me and brings her mouth close to my ear . Then――

「This is a secret only known by Her Majesty and myself . If Her Majesty wins the war, after you surrender, she isn’t opposed to having a special relationship with you……」

The moment I registered the implication, the image of Wilhelmina’s face and exquisite body peeking out of her torn dress resurfaced in my mind .

In that instant, something in the back of my head pulsated .

「Oh my, look how much it swelled . Can I take that as a ‘Yes’?」

I can’t hear her voice at this point .

It has changed into Wilhelmina’s voice .

In other words, I can temporarily make that beautiful woman mine .

I suck on her boobs, overwhelm her hole and even stuff her tiny dainty mouth with my cock .

「Kyaa!?」

Before I knew it, I turned her body around and had her pinned again .

By the time I was fully aware of what I was going, my hips were already moving like they had a mind of their own .

I could hear my heartbeat pounding loudly in my head and with every thump, I could feel additional blood being pumped into my cock, enlarging it more and more .

This is similar to the time someone was biting my neck as I was imagining Lucy .

I don’t know why I want to fuck Wilhelmina so badly even though I only met her a few times . All I know is that I can’t stop my dick from expanding .

A grin briefly appeared on the woman’s face, but gradually faded and her expression clouded over with fear and terror .

From the beginning to now, she had been acting like she was suffering and matching my rough movements in order to stimulate me .

As my dick continued to grow, however, she started sweating profusely and genuine anguish showed on her face .

「T-that reminds me, I haven’t serviced you orally yet . Let me do that――」

I grip the woman’s shoulder firmly, stopping her from pulling out .

The part of my cock already inserted into her was pushed deeper, audibly splitting the fleshy walls apart .

She lets out a groan and thrusts her hand against my shoulder in an attempt to disengage .

My senses tell me she isn’t acting .

But, I’m too aroused at this point and the thought of releasing her is driven out of my head .

「Y-you’re going to break me!! Dying like this……」

As soon as he gathered her courage, my lust exploded, accompanied by a sharp pain in my urethra and a wave of pleasure enough to erase that pain .

「Guuh!」

I squeeze the woman’s body tightly, clinging to her like the way mollusks do when they mate, and ejaculate, envisioning myself impregnating Wilhelmina as I do so, even though I know it’s rude .

I don’t know how much time passed with me in that state .

My mind cleared only when the accumulated sexual desires left me and the first thing I heard was the woman’s hushed voice .

「So――」

It happened at that time .

A gust of wind blew in through the opened window .

It swept across the table, blowing the letter to Nonna and knocking the empty glass, which failed to act as a paper weight, to the floor .

The glass shattered with a bright crash, sending the jarring sound unexpectedly far into the calm night .

「What was that? It sounded like something broke . It came from Lord Hardlett’s sleeping quarters . 」

「Let’s check just in case―― hey, hand in there! What happened!!?」

It seems like the guards who were incapacitated by the woman were discovered .

I start to hear shouting and hurried footsteps from all over the place .

The woman clicks her tongue in frustration .

「As I promised, I heard what you had to say . Obviously, my answer is no . Now disappear before you get caught . 」

I might have been saved by Nonna .

A slight grin forms on my face as the letter flies around the room, almost like it was angry .

「……I’ll try again another time . 」

The woman reluctantly sighs as she stands up, scoops up the seed overflowing from her crotch and slurps it up quickly before jumping out of the window .

At the same time, someone banged on the door .

「Lord Hardlett! Are you alright!?」

「I dropped a cup . What’s wrong?」

I opened the door, pretending to be sleepy from just having woken up .

――Two Weeks Later . City State Area: Within Meldorapolis .

「Oh Celia, you were here?」

「Yes Aegir-sama! I’m glad…… having you here calms me . 」

I rest my hand on Celia’s head as she clings to my waist .

Both of us make a relieved expression .

I’m not flirting .

The situation is really dire .

The Aless soldiers, led by Gildress, are disgustingly hot and sweaty .

I won’t say these guys are unpleasant, but being with them for 24 hours a day is unbearable .

And right now, there are only Aless soldiers here .

Instead of bringing my troops, the Aless soldiers are accompanying me as allies .

「Uuu……it stinks . It’s hot . 」

「I was the one who had to spar with him, you know . The training itself wasn’t stressful, but there was sweat and spit flying everywhere . 」

Merely four others could come along with me .

Of course, the cute Celia was one, Mack as the shield was another, and Tristan rounded out the group from my camp . The last one was Agor, who was granted permission by Erich .

With this expedition likely to become an adventure, and therefore risky, I wanted to take as few girls with me as possible . Agor, being someone I’ve been acquainted with for a while, would be easier to work with than a random unknown soldier .

Although it’s truly been a long time since I talked with Agor, the conversation we had during the journey up to this point was able to ease some of the tension between us created by our mutual change in standings .

In reality, Myla and Yakov also wanted to come, but they had their respective squads to command .

The 105 army especially tends to cause trouble without me and Yakov around to restrain them .

「If he was healthy, I would have taken Gido too, but――」

「I’m sure he’s doing fine―― or not, he lost his thing after all . 」

I was going to return Gido to Rafen once his condition improved, but in the meantime, I’m relying on Lucino to care for him .

Since she’s a traitor, she’s hated by the soldiers .

She would be fine if I’m around, but when I’m acting separately like now, I get concerned .

My thinking was that if she did her best nursing the injured Gido, her treatment might improve .

I recall the small dispute that occurred when I said that to her .

『Constantly attending to the man…… are you referring to this inferior one? I will do it if you’re ordering me……but I thought I was Hardlett-sama’s……mmglmml . 』

Lucino hesitated like that .

So I responded like this .

『You don’t need to think of this as taking care of a man . He won’t attack you even when his injury heals, so relax . Gido’s thing has torn off after all . 』

『He’s too young……to have it ripped out……plus he’s good looking, how sad . 』

That time, Gido was crying throughout the conversation, probably because his wound hurt .

Anyways, I did all I could .

Agor’s voice snaps me out of the memory .

「Lord Hardlett, it appears the scout has returned . Please head back to the headquarters immediately . 」

This guy hasn’t changed, he’s as serious as before .

It’s like if Yakov became more earnest and was taught how to be orderly .

「I don’t see how he’s serious . 」

Celia’s sharp eyes shift from Agor to his attendant next to him, a small uniform-wearing boy .

「Fufufu, you’re right . He isn’t serious at all…… kukuku, he has a wife and a mistress too . 」

Agor awkwardly casts his eyes downward while the young attendant turns red .

Of course, he is now a captain of a hundred-man squad and it isn’t unnatural for him to have a follower or two .

However, this attendant has a secret .

「Fufufu, this attendant looks to cute to be a boy, Agor . Look, there’s even a thin line of lipstick on his lips . 」

「Kuh, please overlook this!」

Right, this attendant is actually a female .

Agor brought her to the battlefield under the pretense of wanting an attendant .

His goal is quite clear .

「Did you have fun after you slipped away again in the middle of drinking yesterday? I see some marks on your neck that look like insect bites . 」

I grin, teasing Agor with my question .

I’m sure he made a vulgar face .

「Auu . 」

When I see the cute blushing attendant, I feel like poking fun at him even more .

「It’s inexcusable of you to make your lover your follower and take her along to battle!」

「I don’t want to hear that from you, Miss Celia…… ahem . Anyways, we better go back to headquarters quickly . 」

No, I don’t believe we have to .

「Oh, a new enemy has appeared!? They’re in formation across the river!? Gimakipolis soldiers, you say!?」

「They want to challenge us to a fight after surrendering to Meldora!? My King, they challenged us!!」

「Nuuun!! We accept!! It’s already evening, but that doesn’t matter . One hour is more than enough to dispatch weak Gimaki soldiers who would yield to the likes of Meldora! No need to mess around with tactics, trample them head on!! Men of Aless, to battle!」

「See? We’re going to launch a full-scale attack now . 」

「……that’s quite different from how Goldonia does things . 」

Everything from the scout’s report to the reaction to that report and even the orders of General Gildress can be heard all the way here, far from where the headquarters is .

Not only that, they’re not forming any kind of organized ranks, they’re simply spreading out and charging separately with their swords .

It’s the total opposite of the Goldonian army’s standard based on the Federation .

Now then, the enemy has shown up on the other side of the river .

They were prepared for us and had cut the bridge, laid wooden stakes on the sand bar, and lined up spearmen and archers along the riverside .

Their strategy, by removing the bridge and setting up obstacles, is to force us to wade through the river and then finish us off with arrows and spears .

If I can see what they’re trying to do, then it’s a pretty ordinary plan .

「Will they be alright?」

Agor turns to be with a worried look on his face .

Obviously, that’s because the Aless soldiers are charging at the waiting enemies in a horizontal line formation .

To him, they most likely appear to be recklessly running to their deaths .

「I think it’s better if we take out the archers on the opposite coast as we advance while at the same time having the cavalry detour around either through the upper or lower part of the river . 」

Celia steps forward after Agor’s comment .

「In addition, we are upwind, so if we set damp wood on fire, we can use smoke to obstruct vision . We’ll be advancing in the water so we can just wrap our faces with wet towels . 」

Celia puffs out her chest as if to say her suggestion was more clever .

「The thing is, they can’t do it . Aless doesn’t have archers or cavalry . They’re all infantry . 」

「Only……infantry? This is going to be a tough fight then . 」

Agor visibly gets more nervous .

The female attendant also trembles .

「Hm, I wonder about that . 」

My eyes focus on the heart of the Aless army .

Gildress, somehow noticing my gaze, shouts out loudly at me .

「Why don’t you watch our fight from over there!? Men of Aless! Don’t show my friend an embarrassing sight!!」

「「「Nuuoooooh!!」」」

A collective roar answered back loud enough to send vibrations through the ground .

「I expect this to be a one-sided stomp . 」

The enemy army numbers roughly 10 000 and have constructed a decent encampment .

As for Aless――

「Here we go, all 30 000 of you!! Follow me!!」

The Aless soldiers who came as reinforcements combined with the “civilian” army of Aless soldiers who were already with me seamlessly to form one powerful army totalling 30 000 and that huge group started charging straight at the enemy .

I internally press my hands together in prayer for the enemy army .

「「「Uooooh!!」」」

Aless runs through the bad footing of the river and directly at the enemy’s encampment .

Normally, that would be a foolish move .

「T-they’re fast!」

Agor’s eyes open wide .

I’m already accustomed to their speed .

They run as fast as horses in short distances .

Without a shred of hesitation, they rush into the river .

「They’re not slowing down!?」

The shallow water reaches waist level, however, the Aless soldiers keep moving forward, their vigorous actions causing huge splashes of water .

Further ahead of them are the fences planted in the ground by the enemy as defense .

If they are stalled here, they will be showered by endless arrows .

「Nuun!!」

「This hollow log won’t even train my body!」

Agor’s jaw drops .

「He…… pulled it out?」

「I’m used to that kind of thing . 」

The Aless soldier yanked out the entire stake fixed to the bottom of the river and tossed it aside .

Flustered by what they’re seeing, the enemy archers fire at the Aless soldiers .

「Futile! Weak arrows won’t hurt!!」

「Uhahaha! Ooh, that hurt, that hurt! The arrow popped the pimple on my arm!!」

I don’t see a single person falling down .

「Arrows are ineffective……?」

The Aless soldiers flood the riverbank in the blink of an eye .

They quickly come face to face with a fence that looks to be the last line of defense……

「Nuun!!」

The Aless soldier builds up speed and rams his body into the fence .

That was enough to greatly shake the fence and was followed up by a second and third tackle, which caused the fence to creak .

By the fifth tackle, the fence finally broke apart .

「It’s over . 」

As soon as the enemy spearmen gathered together, the Aless soldiers surged forward .

There was no way for them to put up any resistance at this point .

One Aless soldier can easily defeat three average men so the enemy is helpless if the monsters are the three .

「I guess my common sense doesn’t work on them . 」

While Agor laments his lack of understanding, the Aless soldiers massacre all who stand against them, ignore those fleeing, and quickly strip and take custody of the small number of girls there who were probably part of the transport corps or lovers of high-ranking officials .

Five minutes after the order to charge was given, the battle was finished .

「At this rate, things might go smoothly until we reach Meldora . 」
