Chapter 19
After sending Collette off at her hometown we went south in the direction of the North Telies .
The reason was simple, we canât go any further than this .
Though I did say I didnât want to go along the river but see the cold northern winter, but even at Collette and Arisaâs hometowns in the center of the Federation, the ground was already frozen and the water in our pouches also froze, we canât even drink unless we made a fire .
Most of all, if we went any further north the horses are going freeze to death .
Then once we lost our means of transport, we humans will meet the same fate .
Considering having experienced the Federationâs intense cold a good result, we went straight south for the river .
I planned to do something about Nonna along the way but it came unexpectedly early .
âSouth? Ah, if you wanted to catch a boat you go roughly 5-6 days south and youâll get to a port city . If I remember right, the nameâs âŠâ
âElektraâ
That was not a slight action or a momentary response, Nonna jumped up like she was convulsing from a climax .
âWhatâs with you all of a suddenâ
Celia lashed at her, Nonna smiled but she canât smile at all .
âAegir-sama?â
âWhat?â
âRather than the river, I like wide open spaces like this moreâ
âI seeâ
âSo can we keep going west just like this?â
âNo we canât, there are more towns down south and we can even get a boatâ
âAegir-samaâ
âWhat?â
âI think Iâd like to Gordoniaâ
âYouâre saying this now?â
âI had a sudden change of heartâ
âNo you canât, weâll go to the Federation capital firstâ
âIf youâll listen to my selfishness Iâll let you have your way with my breastsâ
âShould I grope them by force right away?â
Somehow she doesnât want to go to Elektra at all costs .
Iâm growing tired of this cheap drama .
âWhy do you dislike Elektra?â
ââŠâŠ . . It was the town where I livedâ
Well, I guessed it was something like that .
She might not want to meet with the family that sold her .
âWeâre going to Elektra . If you donât want to be seen use a hat or somethingâ
âPleaseâ
Nonna dejectedly looked down .
Several days later .
âSo this is the North Teliesâ
âCool! I canât see the other bank!â
One of the two great rivers of the continent, the North Telies .
Stretching from the central plains and flowing to the western sea, it was a river of blessings whose flow supported logistics and agriculture .
The towns along its basin did lots of trade and grew large .
This Elektra too, despite being a provincial town, was a relatively large one with over thirty thousand people .
In this lively city there was a big-breasted woman covering her face with a hat .
âYou canât see my face, right?â
She asked worriedly, but no problem .
Would she be angry if I said the menâs gazes arenât going to her face but her legendary-sized bust?
âAegir-sama! Look! That ship looks like a hill! And itâs got cloth attached?â
A 40 meter long 5 meter tall barge was docked at the wharf .
There were countless oars protruding from its sides .
It seems to be loaded with a huge amount of goods .
âThat is a bireme . Probably going to transport grain to [White City], I think . It can even go upstream, and if the wind is good it can go at an amazing speedâ
Which reminds me, I heard that sea-going ships had cloth attached and no oars but it seems river ships do the same, too .
The âWhite Cityâ is the Olga Federation capital and because the official name changes with each successive king so it seems to be called with its nickname .
Celia seems to be seeing the river and boats for the first time and even talked to Nonna who she doesnât usually get along with, how admirable .
Itâs my first time, too but Iâm not going to raise a fuss about it .
There were lots of shops lined up along the riverbank, and thereâs a wide variety of them, too .
From fruits Iâve never seen before to handicrafts, as expected from a foreign trade post .
Nonna picked up a small yellow fruit and said âthis is delicious you knowâ, so we bought a few .
Seems theyâre called âmandarinsâ .
I had her peel the rind with her slender fingers and put it in my mouth . It had a strange taste, sweet and yet sour .
Celia happily stuffed her mouth with it too, but Nonna didnât partake .
As a town with a trade port and a logistical base for the locality, there were many traders who set up shop at Elektra, their numbers rival Gordonia .
Then the reason we were now visiting a shop was to trade the wagon in .
The wagon had been useful to us up until now, but theyâll get in the way if we were to go on a ship, and as we go west we would draw near the capital so there would be transport facilities like stagecoaches there .
But most of all, unlike a single horse like Schwarz, a wagon that takes up a road lane would be restricted for entry to developed towns .
It wouldâve been fine if we only had to pay a fee, but Nonna said there were towns where they were only allowed for nobles and traders who own stores .
The wagon was convenient if we had to sleep outdoors but then we had to sleep outdoors with it, which would be putting the cart before the horse .
âTwo mares and a medium-sized wagon, right? The items were quite good but they were well used so I can only offer this much âŠâ
I was going to say thatâs fine but Celia interjected .
âAegir-sama . If itâs just that much then that other store buys for moreâ
Though this is the first store we came to .
âPlease wait! In consideration for the lovely young ladyâŠâ
In the end the two mares go for 5 gold and the wagon for another 5; they fetched quite the price .
Celia was worried that Schwarz who had seem to like the mares would sulk but he doesnât seem to be interested .
âHeâs loyal to master, isnât heâ
So Celia said, but I knew better .
He had already copulated with both the mares before we came here . Âč
Seems like heâs no longer interested in them once heâs banged them once .
Really, what a ridiculous horse .
Âč «TN: My headcanon says this happened while Egg was banging Arisa and Collette â Like horse like master»
Now all we need to do is get on a boat due west, but both Nonna and Celia were tired from the long trip and itâd be better for Schwarz to get a change of horseshoes and rest as well .
Elektra was lively and had lots of people so there were proportionally many inns .
There stood inns ranging from low quality rowhouse-like ones to high class temple-like inns .
My creed is to not spare any expense for women, food, and lodging, so I thought to pick the best inn but Nonna tearfully shook her head .
Looks like high-class inns would be inconvenient for her .
In the end the three of us stayed in one that costs two silvers per person per night .
Celia was the one who said so but it seems that this was still incredibly high-class .
The first floor was a dining area and bar-room like the hard-boiled pavilion but the food there were higher-class .
But then again the food Andrei makes might have been better .
The roomsâ decor were also beautiful, the beds are large and clean .
But the best thing of all was that they have bathtubs in the inn .
It was of course a large bath where all the innâs guests bathe together but being able to enjoy dipping in warm water is the best .
âNow then, since weâve got the luggage out of the way, should we head for the baths?â
I want to wash the journeyâs dirt away as soon as I can .
âIâll come withâ
âMy apologies . Iâm a bit reluctant to show my face in this town after allâ
âWe finally get a bath you know . Wonât you be fine if just a little?â
Letâs try pressuring her a bit .
âMy apologies . I will wipe myself clean so âŠâ
âAegir-sama! Letâs hurry up and go!â
Looks like she has some big reservations, well, sure, getting in the baths with tits that big are going to draw eyes .
The baths are of course mixed-gender, after all .
There were already several people in the bath but neither I nor Celia minded them and washed ourselves in warm water .
While Celia was scrubbing herself I took the chance to check her growth .
Her chest had swelled just a little bit and her rump was firm but theyâre still on the small side .
I tried using my finger to check the important spot too, but her small hole was tight even for one finger, and cutely tightened, kyuu-kyuu .
Well, this wonât be able to fit my penis in .
«TN: before anybody gets in a tizzy, remember that sheâs only a couple years younger than him»
âU, um!â
Celia raised a voice to object .
Was it too much stimulation for a child?
âIâll wash you next!â
Since she offered then Iâll have her wash .
First she clumsily washed me with her hands, but before long she used her whole body to wash me .
She was breathing roughly as she frantically moved to rub all over me .
I can feel hardened nipples rubbing on my back .
âIf youâre turned on why donât you relieve yourself with your fingers?â
âI, Iâm not!â
She denied it in panic but she didnât stop moving .
âOnii-san . Howâs your back?â
But a single sentence marked the end of her gallant service .
A completely naked woman stood behind us, exposing her puffing breasts and neatly trimmed pubic hair without any effort spared to hide them .
âOnly two coppers to wash your back . You want to use my hole we can do it in that room over there for a silverâ
âW! Whaâ!â
Now that I looked, seems like there were several women who were likewise calling on to the washing men .
Most of them were doing rather risque washing, raising the menâs desires, probably connected to prostitution .
âCanât you see! Iâm hereâ
âYes yes, the little lady should go and wash herself clean in the bathââ
âWhat are you âŠ!â
âI prefer little girls like herâ
âArara, you have a little girl hobby, do you . Onii-sanâs tool is big so take care so you donât break her ok?â
Celia looked like she was going to start a fight so I chased the woman away, with regret .
Iâm getting a bad rep but beyond the border, anything goes . ÂČ
ÂČ Â«TN: i . e . what goes on in Vegas stays in Vegas»
âDonât get provoked so easily . You donât look cool at all getting angry with your nipples hardâ
As Celia was making a sound that doesnât sound like a voice I dragged her inside the bath ⊠Aaah a hot bath in the middle of winter is the best .
Celia was at her usual place, sitting between my legs and glancing up at me .
She felt my penis on her back but since it got big because of that woman earlier she couldnât seem to stand for it .
Let it go, itâs the fate of men .
As we were leisurely enjoying the warm bath two middle-aged men with protruding bellies came sitting next to us .
âMay we sit next to you?â
âThatâs a cute little missy thereâ
They didnât have any ill will in particular so we exchanged greetings safely .
I moved Celia from between my legs to the other side from the men .
âIs this your first time in Elektra, big bro?â
âYeah, I came from the Central Plainsâ
âHeeh, by boat?â
âNo, we went overlandâ
The men raised a voice in admiration .
Well, itâs rare for someone to go overland in winter .
While weâre having leisurely chat I noticed Celia sticking close to me hiding behind my body .
Looks like she dislikes being exposed naked to unknown men .
The men noticed her too .
âYou donât need to be so guarded, little missyâ
âYes yes, weâre not going to look at you lecherouslyâ
They drew close to me in a weird way .
âRather than that ⊠itâs big bro who weâre interested in, right?â
âYeah, you have a robust body, and that thing is amazing, tooâ
These two seem to be staying in a single room with a twin bed .
I put Celia in between myself and the men . Âł
She raised a voice in protest, but protecting the master is also a followerâs job .
³ «TN: Ladies and gentlemen: behold Egg fearing for his chastity»
âItâs a beautiful city, isnât it?â
âYeah . Itâs the first time I saw a harbor, I was stunnedâ
âWell, Elektraâs been a prosperous city since 200 years ago, see . Then that just had to happen âŠâ
âYou can say that againâ
The two men chatted, looking sour .
âWhat happened?â
âWell you know . It seems the Federal Governmentâs changing the townâs nameâ
âThereâs an incident where the Count ruling here was charged for treason the other dayâ
I heard the Federation was politically stable, though .
âBut then the treason was found out before it became something big, huhâ
âThat countâs family has been ruling this town for generations, too, their house were named the same as the town, Elektraâ
âThen since they canât have a town named after a traitor so they renamed it . Umm, what was it again? Rurirotsk? Rurulesk?â
âElektra sounded many times better . Weâve been trading here since my fatherâs time so after all this time âŠâ
Having the townâs name change is hard on the people living there .
Though itâs nothing too important for someone like me who never stay in one place .
They then made me listen to all kinds of complaints about the Count and the confusion afterwards, about the government offices lagging, and about tax collection .
The men said their names were âMohoâ and âGeydaâ, childhood friends and a pair of trader and artisan .
Surprisingly, they had families, seems they like to escape their families and stay at an inn .
Celia looks like sheâs getting dizzy so we ought to get out soon .
âWeâre still tired from the journey so please excuse us hereâ
âOoh! I see! Well, weâll be staying at room 205!â
â205, remember that!â
Like hell Iâd come over, I thought as I got out .
Their eyes were focused on my nether regions but itâs gross to even hide it .
Celia frantically covered her chest and her important part with her hand and followed .
But the men did not even take a glance at her .
Back at the room, Nonna had already changed into some loose sleepwear .
Since we decided to rest at the inn for a while everyone bought some comfy indoor clothes .
Since there was some slack to her clothes her breasts shook violently .
She probably carefully wiped her body already, the scent of sweat and dust were already gone and her hair was also clean .
But as youâd expect, Celia who had washed from the head down and gone into the bath shined more .
Feeling my gaze, Celia deliberately flaunted some skin while making the bed, and Nonna smiled as she watched over her .
âSpeaking of which, Nonna came from this town, didnât you?â
ââŠâŠâŠâŠ . â
She didnât say anything but I continuedâ
âI heard this at the bath earlier, but theyâre changing the townâs nameâ
Nonna dropped her cup to the floor .
Celia complained while cleaning it up but Nonnaâs eyes were fixed on me .
Whatâs the meaning of this? Her face says .
âWell they said itâs all sorts of inconvenient to have it carry the name of a traitorâ
*grit*, there was an incredible sound from her mouth .
Her smile was nowhere to be found, even her eyes were filled to the brim with anger .
âMy apologies . Iâm feeling tired so I shall retire nowâ
âTo go sleep while Aegir-sama is talking, whatâs the meaning of this!â
Celia clamored but Nonna pulled her covers and didnât move .
She canât repress her emotions any more than this, it looks .
I hugged Celia and carried her to bed like that .
In under ten minutes there was a sound of snoring from between my arms .
Late at night
While Celia was snoring and I was pretending to sleep, Nonna slowly rose up from bed and looked outside from the veranda .
The town was of course pitch-dark but there were lamp-lights by the ships moored at the docks looking like stars .
âHyaaa!â
I held up Nonna in my arms from behind and set her down on a sofa in the living room partitioned from the bedroom by a door .
âIf you want to embrace me then shouldnât we use the bed? Or may it be that you have some other wish of me?â
âIâm not going to sleep with you . No, I want to sleep with you but thatâs not the thing I want to talk to you about nowâ
Successfully fixing her expression, she smiled and said âWhat is it then?â
Iâm bad at introductions and bargaining .
âNonna ⊠. Elektra, right?â
Her smile crumbled, she turned to face me like a broken waterwheel .
I can see from her expression but I still continued .
âLady Nonna of the House of Count Elektra, am I right?â
âN, no! What are you saying!â
âTimewise it was about a year ago, the Countâs house was disgraced on account of treason and you became a slave . The high-class inns and traders still remember your face . Which is why you donât want to be seen around townâ
âNo . Iâm nothing like that! Donât just go say something so conveniently!â
âWe met traders who used to deal with the former Lord at the bath . Should we try asking them? Do you remember seeing this girl?â
Though the werenât such big shots, just a couple of man-lovers .
ââŠâŠâŠ . â
Nonna fell silent with tears on her face .
âYou donât like being seen as a traitorâs daughter? Or maybe you donât want people to see you fall from your lofty position?â
âHe wasnât a traitor!â
I finally heard the voice behind the mask .
âFather did nothing wrong! There were bandits, then he sent soldiers, thenâŠ!â
One day, he was notified of a large-scale band of bandits doing repeat pillaging of the perimeter towns within his domain .
He then gathered soldiers and he himself lead the charge, but there was no sign of the bandits . The Lords of surrounding territories made a fuss saying that he was going to rebel against the Federal Government .
The messenger who shouldâve explained the circumstances never arrived at the capital, and the ambassador from the capital who was sent to ascertain the circumstances was assassinated within the domain .
The federal government took this as a sure sign of mutiny and assembled a punitive force .
The Count who sent himself as a messenger to the capital was executed, and so were his son who carried his line and his wife .
His girls were deprived of their positions and sold as slaves .
This was the whole story of the Count Elektra rebellion .
The County was divvied up between the surrounding Lords . Thinking that when the assets were seized by Central the plot would be uncovered, but that has nothing to do with Nonna .
That day, she lost everything, her family, her status, and her home .
And now, the last proof that the House of Count Elektra existed had vanished .
âOniisama and the others were hanged in front of the house . Sister refused to become a slave and killed herself . Iâm the only one leftâ
âI see, so thatâs the reason behind those dead eyes of yoursâ
Nonna shakily raised her face .
The look on her face was seething anger â at me who forced her to be reminded of her past .
âSo, what do you want with me!? You want to rape me while laughing at my past? You want to sell me at a brothel as a former noblegirl?â
âNeither . I want you to live in the future, not your pastâ
Nonna turned her face down without saying anythingâ
âI want you to fall for me from the bottom of your heart . Leave your past behind and be mine, wonât you?â
I put my hands on her shoulders and whispered .
The girlâs shaking stopped and she slowly stepped away .
Next I felt a shock on my cheek, Nonna slapped me ⊠no, hit me with all she had .
âGet off me you brute!! Stop saying nonsense!â
Her angry roar resounded in the room, I heard Celia waking up and running over in a hurry .
âIf you want my body you can have it . If you want my heart you can try courting me . But I will never ever hand over my soul!!â
She put my knife to her own neck, she mustâve been hiding it somewhere .
âIf you tell me to forget the late Elektraâs glory and past pride then I, as Nonna Elektra, last of the line of the House of Count Elektra, will end it here with pride!â
I seem to have brought imperial wrath on myself .
Celia jumped in with her sword, but was startled to see Nonna .
As I motioned Celia to stand back with one hand, I continued .
âDo you miss your past family? Do you want this town?â
âOf course! But itâs all goâŠâ
âI asked if you wanted it or not!â
Nonna hesitated for a moment but she wasnât afraid of my anger .
âThis town is Elektraâs pride! The town built by our ancestors . Wanting to take it back is obvious!â
Nonnaâs voice was raised in anger, but tears flowed endlessly from her eyes .
She couldnât control her emotions anymore .
âThen I will get this town back in your hands . Will you give me even your soul to be my woman if I promised that?â
There was a moment of silence, Nonnaâs expression was still tense .
âStop saying foolish things!â
I held the knife she was pointing at her own throat with my bare hands .
Blood flowed and Celia made a pitiful sound .
âI will certainly, definitely take back this town for youâ
âA mere mercenary like you can do something like that?!â
âIf you think so then you wouldnât be able to, right? At most you can only cut your own neckâ
Nonna widened her eyes and lost strength .
âI will do it . Be it in ten years or twenty or more, but I will definitely do it!â
I brushed the knife off Nonnaâs hand .
âWhat a mere fallen noble like like you canât do, I will do in your stead . So, leave everything to meâ
Nonna fell to her knees on the floor .
âMay I ⊠. believe in you?â
âYou can leave anything and everything to me . Thereâs nothing you have to do anymore . Fall into my arms, if you do that Iâll do everything elseâ
Nonna fell on her backside on the floor and made a sob .
Ah, itâs coming .
I hid the bloodstained knife and told Celia to put her sword down .
Then the dam burst .
âHIIEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNN!!!â
The late night clamor ended in her crying out loud like a baby .
All the pent-up feelings she had were now let out .
The descendant of a Count family was now a mere girl .
âNow letâs clean this upâ
Celiaâs sleepwear were ruffled and I was totally naked myself .
Right then the innâs employees and guests who heard the ruckus came knocking .
When they opened the door they saw a worn-out little girl, a naked man, and a crying woman .
Everything was peacefully settled with me being a bastard who was toying two girls around .
