Chapter 1255: Natural Is Better

The female slaver was obviously not amused that she got snubbed and was basically fuming at the sight of the Trasifs rejecting her.

"How dare you?! What did you do to them?! How can they believe that you are better than me?! I’ve crafted this body through years of research to find the most feminine form that would drive the Trasifs to wild! How are you able to make a body better than mine?!!"

Girl... What the heck? Are you alright in the head? Are you seriously telling me that you spent all that time researching the female body to use Somatomancy to change yourself into that?

Hmm... Actually, I take that back... I can actually respect that level of dedication.

Well... Faced with such a question, I answered her in the only way I knew how...

I shrugged.

She seethed at me and it looked like she was going to lunge at me in response but surprisingly, she sucked in a breath and calmed herself down.

She nodded at me, "Very well... I suppose we should start again. Who the fuck are you?"

Well... I don’t see a point in lying at this point so we might as well be honest with them.

"We’re Mercenaries here to claim the bounty on your heads. I’m offering you the chance to surrender right now."

The slavers looked at one another before letting out a chorus of laughter, including the female slaver.

"Hahahaha! Did you really think that just because you managed to charm those Trasifs to your side, you would be able to win? You thought we only managed to capture them because we’re using them as shields or something?!"

I scratched my cheek, "Ehh... Not really? We’re prepared to fight you all if we have to and we’re also prepared to kill you. So it’s really up to you if you want to fight or not. Would you like to surrender?"

I even asked them in the sweetest voice I could muster so that they knew that I was serious, but for some reason that slaver leader got more offended instead.

"You bitch!! You really have no idea who you’re dealing with huh? Then let me show you just a fraction of what we’re capable of!!"

She then started chanting again and while I could just knock her out whenever I wanted, I was curious what she wanted to do so I let her finish chanting her spell, especially since she was trying to cast her Somatomancy magic again.

I thought she would transform herself back to normal but when she did a spin, her hair turned white and the rest of her body also started to change.

Her boobs got smaller by a little bit but her hips and butt got just a little wider. Meanwhile, her legs and arms tightened up and her face changed to adopt a rather familiar shape.

"How about now you stupid girl loving idiots?!" The slaver shouted at the Trasifs inelegantly.

And yes, she had transformed herself into me so she quite literally had the same body as I do right now.

I was expecting the Trasifs to start comparing the both of us but...

"Ahhhh~ Young Mistress is really the best!"

"Yes yes, she is still the best!"

"It looks like I was right in renouncing my allegiance after all!"

"We will follow you for life!!"

Ok, first of all... Please don’t follow me for life... Go and live your own life instead... We’re not looking for new party members at the moment.

Second of all... Why?!!

We literally look the same, don’t we? Is it the attitude? Like how she carries herself and maybe how she’s showing off her... I mean... My body?

I really don’t understand their criteria for judging who looks more feminine is...

The slaver leader obviously wasn’t expecting such a response from those Trasifs and just stood there staring at them with her mouth wide open in disbelief.

Hey... You’re using someone else’s body right now... At least make me look good or, you know... See how I act and try to copy me or something... Because looking at you feels really icky right now...

I’m only barely tolerating the fact that you transformed into me because I am already used to seeing different versions of myself due to my Shadow Guards. So just give up already girl...

She pointed a finger at me, "How?!"

I was just about to shrug again but the Trasifs spoke up for me.

"She is completely natural. You can’t beat her."

"Yes, yes. We have witnessed perfection herself. There is nothing that you can do to convince us that whatever you have is better than her."

"Mmhmm, mmhmm~ Young Mistress really is the best! There is no competition!"

"That’s right. We have already pledged ourselves to her. Please give up."

The slaver pointed her finger at me, "I do not accept this!! How can I lose to her?!! This makes no sense!! I demand a duel!!"

I blinked at her, "Err... A duel? I guess I don’t mind. So... To the death? Or is it to first blood?"

She crossed her arms, "I don’t mean an actual fight! I mean a competition to decide if you are really feminine or you just lied to them and sold them a dream!! I’ll expose you right here!!"

What the heck? Why do I even need to--

"Yeah! Show them Young Mistress!"

"Go Aster!!"

"Sister Aster will win!"

"Yeah!! She’s our new goddess! I believe in her!!"

"Aster will definitely win!"

"Go, Boss! Show her what you’re made of!!"

"Yeah Aster!! Fuck her!!"

...

Why are all of you so excited about this? And hey!! Why are you girls trying to get me involved too?! Shouldn’t all of you be backing me up instead?! Do you girls really want to see me fight against a... Well... I was going to say an ’evil version of myself’... But I don’t think she can be qualified to call herself ’me’ because she only copied how I look and now what I know.

Also... Don’t think I didn’t hear the last part Lisa... I bet you really want to see me engage in selfcest or something... But if you really want that, I could have just called up Eins you know?

Leaving that aside, I nodded at her, "First of all... Why should I even agree to this duel with you? What do I get?"

"The right to your body!! To claim that you are really the most feminine person these people have ever seen!!"

I waved my hand in front of me, "I’m not interested. You can have that title if you want. I’m just here for your group’s bounty money so please surrender because things will really get ugly if you refuse."

She furrowed her brows and I was really starting to get pissed off that she was making all these facial expressions while looking like me.

"How about this then?! If you beat me in this duel, my entire group will surrender?! You can even have all of our treasures and we’ll also free the Trasifs that we currently have hiding somewhere else? If you don’t accept it, we will fight you to the death and we might even kill some of those Trasifs that have turned traitor to me?!"

Hmm... So there’s even more Trasifs somewhere else huh... And the fact that the earlier group of Trasifs did not bring them here might mean that they don’t know where they are either...

Additionally, if he’s really telling the truth, then I guess it would save us the trouble of bringing their corpses back and bringing them back alive would also net us a larger profit.

I turned to my girls and all of them were looking at me in anticipation for some reason.

They really want to see me duel her?

I let out a sigh, "Tell me what the conditions of the duel are before I decide if I agree to this or not..."

She stood with her hands on her hips proudly and I almost broke just to rush forward to punch her in the face for standing like that while grinning at me.

"It’s simple!! Let’s fuck!!"

...

Why am I not even surprised that this was the answer? Godamnit Lisa...

I sighed even deeper this time, "I’m just saying... Just in case you don’t know... But I’m a futa..."

The slaver blinked at me, then turned to look at the other Trasifs as though expecting them to change their minds.

"Even better!!"

"I didn’t think things could get better than that and the Gods answered our prayers!"

"We’ll follow you for life!!"

"Yes!! This is why natural is even better!!"

Seriously? How does me having an additional manhood win against that slaver who doesn’t have one in terms of femininity? How do you guys even...

You know what? I’m not even going to ask.

Like... Couldn’t we just bring all these Trasifs out of the enchantment and they would return to normal anyway?

Whatever, come on then, let’s get this over and done with...
