Chapter 7: Let’s Celebrate the King’s Return, Part 5
「I am sorry to interrupt you, Lord Aur, but may I have a moment of your time?」
「I don’t mind it, but… this is certainly surprising.」
Aur continued to reward the girls for his long absence by fulfilling their wishes as long as it was within the realm of possibility. Nevertheless, Mio’s request took him by surprise.
Maybe she wanted him to work on a farm tending to the demonic beasts? Well, considering that she’s just an ordinary village girl, something like that really should be expected.
And now that he thought about it, it was very rare for Mio to visit him alone. Usually she had some demonic beasts as an escort wherever she went, or was seen playing around with Aur’s daughters. It might’ve been her kind-hearted nature or the result of her lifestyle up until she met him, but she generally looked like someone who preferred the company of others instead of being alone.
So now that she came to him alone for the first time, he was quite unsure of what to do or how to act around her. He hoped that his usual demeanor would be enough.
「So? What is your wish going to be? Today is your day to get rewarded after all, so I’ll do anything I can to make your wish come true.」
He asked her when they arrived at his private quarters and he undone the clasps of his robe.
「Maybe you’d like me to treat you like a princess or a noblewoman? If that’s the case, I wouldn’t even mind acting as your servant if it is only for today.」
Aur said it half-jokingly, knowing that Mio was not into that kind of thing.
「For now, could you just come here and lie down, Lord Aur?」
Mio asked him as she sat on the edge of the bed and patted her knees lightly.
「Like this?」
「Yes, exactly like that.」
Aur lies on the bed with his head resting on Mio’s knees. He couldn’t see it, but his face must’ve had a really stupid expression on it, because Mio giggled and smiled when she looked down on him, but then she immediately blushed and avoided looking him straight in the eyes.
「Lord Aur, can I… comb your hair for you?」
「I see no reason why you shouldn’t do that. Go ahead.」
「Ah, thank you very much!」
With a happy shout, she took out a small comb from the pocket of her skirt, and gently began to comb Aur’s hair.
「Do you always carry that around with you?」
Aur asked her, thinking that such a mundane activity was not really that much of a reward.
「Yes, I do. Oh, but you don’t have to worry, Lord Aur, this comb is not for animals. It’s the one that I use to comb my own hair.」
She gave him an embarrassed smile and waved her hands around apologetically.
「You know how I often play with your daughters, right? So like, things sometime get kinda messy, and for that, well… Ellen gave me that comb as a gift, saying that I might be needing it. Supposedly, she made carved it from some tree or something.」
「A Box Tree perhaps?」
「Say what?」
「It’s called like that because it is well suited for making boxes and other daily necessities. The tree itself grows slowly, but its wood is rigid and hard, which makes it a prefect material for combs or forks that will not chip with extensive usage.」
As he gave her an explanation, he thought to himself: “What in the hell am I saying?”
「If it really is such a valuable thing, then I’d better thank her properly next time I see her.」
Initially Aur had some reservations about this whole hair combing situation, but now the warmth of Mio’s THICC thighs made him so relaxed that the completely entrusted himself to her.
「Ah, but speaking of gratitude, good job on preparing that Herunda medicine. It really helped us a lot.」
「Oh, no need to thank me, really. I just did what was required of me to help you, that’s all.」
Mio brushed aside the fact that she created such an amazing anti-poison medicine with lighthearted tone.
Normally, the Herunda grass was harmful only when it was b=directly touched without any protection on the hands, but the kind that was supposed to withstand even the basilisk poison could harm other organisms by emitting toxins into the air, so preparing a medicine from it was no small feat that deserved recognition.
「What the hell is wrong with you… always acting so humble…」
Mio is a girl who was sacrificed to Aur shortly after Spina came to the Dungeon, which effectively makes her the oldest human being in the Dungeon right now. Since she arrived here, she devoted herself to cultivating livestock, knowing that it would benefit Aur in the long run. Everything she did, was to help others.
「You should learn to be more… selfish…」
As he listened to Mio’s soft voice, his eyelids gradually began to close.
「Ah, Lord Aur, are you… feeling sleepy by any chance?」
Then he felt a faint smell of straw and something soft pressing itself against his lips.
And finally, his consciousness drifted away into the dreamworld.
「Nnn….muuu….」
「Lord Aur, it’s time to wake up.」
As Aur woke up, he noticed that something big and round was lying in front of him. He absentmindedly reached towards it with his hand and grabbed it.
Whatever it was, it was so comfortable to the touch that he wanted to touch it some more.
「Uhm, Lord Aur, it’s somewhat embarrassing when you touch me there like that, but if that is what you want, then…」
「Mi…o?」
Aur’s consciousness finally returned to him. He was sleeping with his head on Mio’s knees, and the thing that he touched was her breast.
He couldn’t normally see it due to her usual clothing, but her chest was quite large. So much in fact that now that he was lying on her knees, he couldn’t see her face because of them.
「How long was I…」
「I would say that you had a good night’s sleep.」
When he raised his head to check the clock hanging on the wall, he realized that he slept for about half a day.
「I’m sorry about that. Are your legs not hurt? And what about your reward?」
Because he committed such a mistake, he hurriedly apologized to Mio.
「It’s fine. This is what I wanted.」
「What?」
Aur could not understand why was she so happy?
「You just came home from a distant foreign land, and had your hands full with those grand affairs again. That is why my request was for you to take it easy and rest for just that one day without thinking about anything else.」
「Mio, you…」
Aur just looked at her, not knowing what to say.
His usual sleep was always very shallow. It was a habit he developed in order to deal with any unexpected situations as they occurred.
Was it because of the Queen of Demonic Beasts’ lap pillow? He slept so soundly that he even forgot about the passage of time. Thanks to that, he felt really well rested.
「Besides, your sleeping face was so entertaining that it was well worth it.」
「Forget about it, right now. That’s an order, I’m not kidding.」
Aur ordered her while he touched his cheek to check whether there was any drool on it.
He had many mistresses up until now, but only a few of them had the privilege of seeing his sleeping face. That was because usually they were the ones who fainted first when they were having sex.
「Are you really sure about that? The day is not over yet, you can still wish for something if you want.」
「Thank you, but I’m good.」
「If that’s how you want to play it then fine: Mio, I order you as your master! As a penalty for tempting me with that huge chest of yours, you are to spend the whole night with me. No excuses.」
Mio blushed slightly, but then nodded eagerly.
「Yes. Gladly.」
