In the Capital City, all the lodgings were commandeered to provide rooms for the nobles attending the ball. Sieri and I were able to get a comfortable and cozy room, though it was far from the Royal Palace. During this ball season, disputes often broke out between people trying to find rooms and the nobles who had occupied them. The innkeeper was busy trying to stop the fights, and the guards and knight orders bustled about.
"Wake up, Sieri."
I shook the shoulder of Sieri, who had fallen asleep in front of our lodging. Sieri, who had been dead to the world in a deep sleep, rubbed her eyes and looked at her surroundings. She covered her mouth, yawned, and then looked at me and asked.
"Are we here already?"
"Yes. We're here. Let's hurry."
The long carriage trip seemed to have brought Sieri considerable fatigue. She blinked her eyes as if still half-asleep and shook her head slightly. As she tried to lean on me and fall asleep again, I stroked her hair and said.
"Sieri. You should go up and sleep first."
Porters were taking care of the luggage and bringing it up. Two rooms. One for Robin and one for me were assigned. Other than us, a middle-aged noble couple had checked in and were already arguing with the innkeeper.
"Hey, innkeeper. What do you mean there's no course meal? In an inn that receives nobles? I want to eat this Capital City's course meal, I tell you."
"Oh, My Lord. We are not well-off enough to provide a course meal. I can introduce you to a restaurant instead."
The innkeeper was rubbing his palms together and groveling. I sent Sieri up first and watched the situation.
"Introduce me to a restaurant! I want to eat a course meal right now! Here! Sitting in this very seat!"
"Dear, why are you being so embarrassing!"
"Aish! Just stay still! My darling! I! I will make sure you taste the best course meal in this capital!"
Idiot. The plump, middle-aged wife next to him was looking at her husband, looking like she wanted to die of embarrassment. Watching her somehow stop her husband and apologize to the innkeeper, I realized that there were at least a few proper people in this worldview.
"There are so many strange people in the world..."
I said, looking at Robin. Robin was staring at the middle-aged wife with his eyes half-open. I waved my hand in front of Robin, but he stared at the wife with a blank face, as if my hand wasn't even there.
"Robin?"
"That wife, isn't she truly beautiful?"
".....That wife?"
She was a truly plump and pleasant-looking wife, enough to win first place if there were a contest for looking prosperous. She'd surely be a beautiful woman if she lost weight, and her personality seemed fine, but she wasn't my preference. Robin let out a foolish laugh, 'Hehehe,' and then said to me.
"Should I try talking to her?"
".....What do you think I'm going to say?"
"If you give me permission....."
"No, as if I'd give you permission. Hurry up and go upstairs. I can't deal with the aftermath if a scandal breaks out."
Robin was looking at the middle-aged wife with a pitiful expression. Thinking this guy was going to cause some trouble, I forcibly dragged Robin upstairs. Sieri, as if fascinated by the lodging's bed, was bouncing her body up and down on it. Then, as soon as I entered, she straightened her posture and pretended she hadn't been doing anything.
"Ah, M-My Lord, you're here?"
"My Lord? You should call me Lusius. There's only the two of us here, Sieri."
"Ah, that... Welcome back? Lusius?"
Kuh. Every time Sieri blushed and spoke like this, I felt a tickling sensation around my chest. I immediately sat down next to Sieri and asked her.
"Sieri. Shouldn't we wash up?"
"Yes, yes."
Thanks to the development of magic, slightly more luxurious lodgings came equipped with separate shower rooms. They said it supplied water to the pipes through some magical principle, but the basic method of use wasn't much different from the shower I used in my past life.
Maybe I should ask Soya to try making a showerhead when I go back.
While I was adjusting the shower's temperature, Sieri carefully began to take off her clothes. Careful not to ruin the pretty dress, she unfastened the buttons, revealing the opening of the skirt and exposing her bare legs to the room. Her white, thin legs felt like those of a ballerina in tights. Sieri placed the dress on the bed and began to take off her underwear.
When she undid her bra, her small but firm breasts bounced, flaunting their presence. As if embarrassed to have her chest exposed, Sieri bent at the waist and pulled down her panties. The pink panties stretched down over her thighs, then were dragged down past her knees. I watched her voyeuristically, then began to undress.
"M-My... Lusi, us?"
"We should wash together. Right?"
"Ah, yes...? B-but it's embarrassing... and..."
I pulled the hesitating Sieri into my arms. The scent of Sieri's now naked body enveloped me. Sieri curled up and burrowed into my embrace, looking up at me with her deer-like eyes and asking.
"A-are we really just going to wash?"
"No."
I decided to be honest. My lower body was swollen and rubbing against Sieri's thigh. Sieri's ears turned bright red, and she lowered her head. I pulled her into the shower room and turned on the water. Warm water poured down like rain.
Sieri's and my body became soaked, sticking together and then separating cloyingly. Sieri's wavy hair clung to her body, making her look even more obscene. I pushed her against the shower wall. Sieri shivered slightly as her body touched the cold shower wall. Every time she shivered, water droplets dripped from her hair.
I sealed her lips and plundered her tongue. The smell of wet water filled the shower room. I kneaded Sieri's breasts and parted her wet lower region, fondling the crevice. In the space filled with warm steam, an even thicker heat began to bloom.
"Haa... haa... Chup..."
Sieri, whom I had been kissing repeatedly, wrapped her hands around my neck and clung to me. My erect genitals poked at her belly. Sieri went from my lips, to my neck, and then licked her way down my chest and stomach before grabbing my cock with her hand. The girl who knew nothing had now become a mature woman who even knew how to tease me.
She slowly took the glans penis into her mouth and slowly ran her hand from the root to the shaft. I held Sieri's head and received her foreplay. As if to experiment with the maximum size of her adorable mouth, Sieri opened it as wide as she could, trying to take my cock in completely. Each time she slowly moved her head back and forth, hot breath flowed from her narrow, soft mouth.
"Aheup... eup... eup..."
How many times had her head gone back and forth? I pulled my cock out of her mouth and gave a nod. When she turned and grabbed the wall, her pink flesh spread obscenely between her legs. I rubbed my genitals against her crevice and kneaded Sieri's breasts.
"Ah... eung... eut..."
And then I thrust in with all my might.
"Aheung!"
Sieri's body, having received my cock so many times, accepted my piston-like movement without any burden. The sensation of being stabbed to the end of my belly sent a dizzying pleasure through me, and I mindlessly shook my hips.
"Haheung...! Eung! Aang...! Lusius...! More, more... more...!"
At her urging, I shook my hips even faster. Every time I moved my hips, she tried to grip the shower wall as if to break it. With her head slammed against the wall, she let out excited moans and clawed down the wall. Every time I moved my hips, her wet buttocks would slap against my pelvis and then pull away with a smacking sound.
"Eung! Aang! Aheung! Eut! Ah! Aaht...!"
My arms tensed. Kneading Sieri's breasts, I bent down and pressed her body down hard. To spew out the explosive feeling of ejaculation, I pressed my body tightly against Sieri's buttocks and pushed.
"Haeueueueuk...!"
Sieri let out a moan and threw her head back. She panted, her tongue hanging out, and I collapsed, still inside her, holding her tightly. Sieri leaned her body against me, enjoying the afterglow. I kneaded her breasts and said.
"Sieri. Are you okay?"
"...My head is... blank..."
I pushed away the hair stuck to Sieri's cheek. I kissed her pale cheek and nibbled on her ear. Sieri shook her head and laughed as if the action was ticklish. While we were playing around like that, Sieri laughed and smeared soap on my face. I playfully threw soap bubbles on Sieri's face in return, and as we lathered each other up, we fell in love once more.
The act of putting soap bubbles on my cock somehow led to a strange atmosphere, and Sieri and I were soon tumbling around in the bathroom again. How many times did we do it? My whole body felt as refreshed as if I had sweat it all out in a hot sauna. Sieri walked out with a slight limp, still wearing an ecstatic expression. I kneaded Sieri's buttocks and kissed her once more.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
A knocking sound was heard. Startled, Sieri pulled the blanket over her body. I calmed Sieri down and spoke toward the other side of the door.
"Don't come in. I'm taking a bath right now. What is your business?"
"Ah, yes. There is a banquet today, so the order is for you to come out by dinner time."
The ball didn't end in a single day. For as short as three days or as long as a week, people from all over would get to know each other and share various information. Today was the first day, a time for everyone to get acquainted.
There was still time until dinner, so I said to Sieri.
"Shall we take a nap?"
"Yes."
Sieri must have been tired, as she fell fast asleep the moment she lay down on the bed. I lay next to her, poking her cheek, and soon fell asleep myself.
"My Lord. You must prepare now."
Robin's voice woke me up. It came from beyond the room. I woke Sieri and prepared to go out. All we had to do was change our clothes, so it didn't take long to get ready.
Even after I was all ready, Sieri was still flustered in front of the vanity. As someone who had never worn makeup in her life, she was unfamiliar with it. Come to think of it, since there were no women who wore makeup in my mansion, there were no handmaidens to help with it either. I feel like Aira would know how, should I have brought her? Sieri tried her clumsy hand at makeup, but only applied lipstick and powder before heading out. She asked me several times.
"I-it doesn't look strange, does it? Lusius?"
"You're beautiful."
"H-how beautiful?"
Instead of an answer, I kneaded her buttocks.
".....Really."
This was why Sieri was so fun to tease.
