Chapter 19

Like the chime of a bell, the elevator rang while the screen displayed the number 17. This was my new apartment that I chose as my base of operations in Osaka city. Just for the record, the building is in a prime area, but it wasn't the fanciest of all.

I could have chosen more expensive locations with my current budget, but I preferred this one because of the size, which is a triplex.

As soon as the elevator door opened, a pink haired maid was waiting for me to the right, bowed, "Master."

"Hope I didn't take too long, rose number 18." I say with a smile to that beauty.

"The master has arrived just in time. Dinner is almost ready," she said with a little blush.

"Can I just call you number 18, by the way?" I ask as I sit down on a very large black L-style sofa in the living room.

"Feel free to do whatever you want -- ummm, Master," The pink-haired maid said with one hand on her chest, while shyly averting her eyes to the other side.

She seemed to be holding back something to say, and every now and then she looked at me doubtfully.

Her personality is usually serious, but today number 18 seemed strangely shy.

"Did you want to say something?"

"It's just ---Err-- I wanted to try something I read about humans."

"Huh? Okay, go ahead." I encouraged her with a smile.

This is rose number 18, a member of the Harpies' Older Sister and my personal assistant. She wore a necklace to disguise her appearance as a human.

She seems unsure whether to try or not. After a brief reflection... Number 18 has renewed spirits and says...

"Would you like your dinner first? Or your bath?" Number 18 looks away shyly and finally says in a low voice, "Or me?

I blink my eyes at it in surprise and swear I tried...

But I couldn't help but laugh at that and said, "What kind of stuff are you reading, number 18? It looks like it's out of ecchi anime or something."

Her eyes sadden and she looks down, clutching the hems of her dress and not daring to look up to face me.

"Hey, number 18."

"Yes Master?" she asked in her usual emotionless voice.

"I apologize for laughing. Come here. You have to give me your reports," I told her patting my lap.

She widens her eyes at this and asks, "A-Are youu s-sure?"

"Of course. I need to make sure there aren't any miscommunications between us," I say with a smile as I pat my lap once more for her to come upstairs. "Come here."

She placed her hands on her chest, because of her rapid heartbeat, before approaching me. Number 18 places both legs beside me and sits facing me on my lap, both hands holding my neck.

I could smell her lavender scent, her wetness rubbing against my erection and see the perverted smile on her face.

Holy moly. All harpies are perverts and I loved that.

"Ohhh, that's really good. Shall we play a little game?" I say impressed by her boldness. I hadn't even ordered it, but instinctively she rubbed furiously against my erection trapped in my pants. "Much better than any ecchi anime stuff--- You must tell me the whole report and I won't let you come until you're done."

But contrary to my expectations.

"Nhmmm," she moaned before lightly biting my earlobes and panting heavily. She seemed in her own world, ignoring everything around. Number 18's only mission now is to scratch that itch that her master always caused in a certain part of her body.

We were rubbing against each other, my erection contained in my pants against her soaked panties. Getting stronger and faster with time.

Shit, if things continue like this, I'd get lost in the sensations her wiggle cause. I had to act.

Using Mirror of Adonis very lightly for touch control, I raise my right hand and...

Slap!!!

"AHHHHHH!!," yelled number 18 as she leaned back in ecstasy, her eyes staring up at the ceiling with heart in them.

My hands had found her soft buttocks, causing a multitude of inhuman sensations.

Her nipples are diamond-hard and I pinch them lightly with my left hand fingertip, teasing her. I had increased her sensitivity level 3 times.

"I am - I am," yelled Number 18 and her body writhed on top of me and the inevitable happened.

It seems that I have once again underestimated how effective this magic is for their race.

"You wet my pants all over," I said trying to hold my breath a little ragged, before cracking a smile and, "What a perverted maid."

"Huff puff, Huff puff," Panting, she rests her head on my shoulders and says, "That -- That was amazing master."

"Didn't you hear me? Aren't you going to apologize for being so perverted?"

"I-I," She looks doubtful before saying, "I won't."

"Oh?"

"This is my method of showing my adoration for you. I live to be your weapon, your tool, your maid and my body is all yours to command."

"I don't want a doll with no will of its own." I say with a slight frown.

"And I'm not -- It's my own will that I wish to serve you, forever and ever," she said, her face buried in my chest with a great blush. "Harpies are beings born for sex, always thirsty and never satiated..."

I look down and try to understand where she was going with this.

"Do you know what it's like to feel an itch all your life and not be able to reach it? An itch so irritating that we look for any way to relieve ourselves? --- And suddenly someone comes along who can change all this?"

"You mean that..."

"Yes master. I'm sure all harpies who have experienced your magic have been marked forever. You are the only one who managed to give us what is closest to satiation. You gave us peace."

At first I had found it strange that the Harpies accepted my leadership so easily, to the point of facing their own sisters. But apparently there was a much deeper explanation than that. They have finally found what their nature has always sought --- satiety, even if momentarily.

Sweat trickled down my back at the thought of how long this satiety would last. What would become of me when they came after me for more? I had to be prepared for that day.

"Where do you think you're going?"

I ask when I see her make a move to leave the premises.

"Huh? I'm just going to check out the food I left in the oven and --"

I shake my head to the side and point at my pants soaked with her love juices, with a huge erection and say, "Aren't you going to work this out? Don't you see my situation? You must take responsibility for your actions."

Her eyes shine with happiness and she drops to her knees in front of me.

I unzip my pants and my johnson pops out to say hello for the first time.

She licks her lips in anticipation and hears me say:

"Make sure you clean everything."

And so followed the sucking sounds throughout the room.

...

There was something special about getting a blow job from such a beautiful, devoted girl. This does wonders for a man's mood and pride.

Reading my notes on my desk with a satisfied smile, I check to see if all my preparations are on track or not.

I needed my experiment today to be a success.

"Okay, let's get started," I slam the book shut and get up from my chair.

I hold out my palm and a magic circle forms on the floor, before the figure of a girl bound by roots appears in front of me.

It's the spider-shaped stray devil that I kidnapped, I mean --- took it into custody at my house.

"Mmmmm," The girl tried to say something but failed miserably as she was gagged.

"Number 18," I say out loud and the maid, who is standing by the door, responds.

"Yea?"

"Call the seventh division captain."

"As you order, my lord." Number 18 bends over, then brings her hands to her shoulders and picks up a black butterfly that rested there.

With the quick closing of her hands, the butterfly is crushed and a purple glow can be seen.

A few minutes later a teleportation circle appeared and from there emerges a figure.

"Er-- My king," Lya bowed a little tensely.

"There's our head mage," I say with a bright smile.

I created 7 divisions for the harpies, each with a different purpose.

First division - The harpies followed and led by my sweet and beautiful queen.

Second Division - Group specializing in murder and the art of poisoning, led by Mishi-chan.

Third Division - Institute for the research and construction of magical artifacts, led by Big Melon-chan.

Fourth division - Medical team led by Rose number 21.

Fifth division - A group of warriors specializing in weapon combat led by Mia.

Sixth Division - Group of melee fighters led by Kurumi.

Seventh Division - Specialized Mages led by Lya.

"Did you bring the mana storage?" I asked.

"Yes," said Lya as she handed me a metallic-looking cube.

It's an item I copied from my visits to artifact creators.

This was a portable mana storage where people could deposit a small amount of their energies there for a limited amount of time.

The stored mana was useless for spells as it is very volatile and harmful, but it was perfect for what I needed here today.

Over 100 harpies deposited their mana in there for my experiment.

With a powder that I took from my shelf I started to draw a pentagram on the floor. Luckily I had Lya's help to finish it as quickly as possible and the symbols seemed to be all in order.

"Nnnnmm," The stray devil girl in the middle of the magic circle squirms with a face of horror and fear.

My pitying expression is visible, but after a brief indecision, I decide to proceed regardless.

I activate the cube that had volatile energy and totally unusable for common practices, to stir atmospheric mana inside the circle.

A small portion of my own mana was added to the mix to recognize me as the ritemaster.

The magic circle lights up, the air suddenly feels heavier with mana coalescing.

From my desk I pull out a giant tweezer which is another trinket I've found on my little adventures.

The girl starts screaming in pain as her body glows a purple color.

I carefully bring the giant tweezer over her chest and pierce.

It hadn't been a physical piercing, but a spiritual one.

Pulling the tweezers from inside her chest I see the beautiful prize I had for the night.

An evil piece, a pawn to be specific.

I smiled as I took that piece in my hands and took advantage of the mana coalesced in the air that recognized me as its master to redirect my spell.

Appraise magic.

Using atmospheric mana to sustain Appraise magic, as I wouldn't have enough mana to parse this item for my own capabilities...

The information exploded in my mind.

My body loses balance and I hold my head in pain from so much information coming at once.

That's incredible.

That's a work of art.

I had no words to describe how complex and ingenious the evil pieces were.

In a few seconds the pawn activates the safety mode that ajuka had left hidden, in case the pieces were removed improperly...

And the pawn turned to dust in my hands.

I smiled at that, because it didn't matter if it was gone.

I had everything I needed to.

Don't worry poor girl, I think as I see the stray devil losing his strength on the ground.

I will make sure her death was not in vain.

This I promise.
