The Spearmaster and the Black Cat-Chapter 409: - Ero Globe

T/N:

Changing title of the chapter (Lucival Table Tennis Tournament) since I'm cutting out the whole thing. It's dumb and has nothing to do with the story. In the recent chapters you can see that the author has completely lost his direction on where to go with this story, and likewise I'm starting to increasingly feel annoyed with this novel since I have to type out all his brain farts. The novel has always been unnecessarily wordy, but if it starts to be full of random crap that doesn't really matter one way or another, then the wordiness leads to the story not moving anywhere (the storyline is basically stuck at Cydale for almost a good 100 chapters now). The last few chapters have been super long, which means I have to split them in two or even three parts, but if the author only adds to the word count, it becomes a very frustrating reading experience. So I'll massively cut it down (even more so than I have done until now) and only write summaries where I think that it's necessary.

It was bedtime for Muu. Hence, Dokoko-san asked me, "I will prepare new clothes for Muu-chan. Shuuya-san, is it okay for Muu-chan to stay over?"

"In the first place, Muu's free to do as she likes."

"……"

Looking drowsy, Muu nodded and grabbed Dokoko-san's meaty hand with her own small one. But, at that point she saw the pretty clothes of my bloodkin and Red Tiger Storm, compared them with her own, and became sullen, despite her sleepiness.

I guess she's a girl so far as it goes.

"I leave Muu in your hands."

"Gladly. I will also show her the armor worn by the orcs of the Deoz Clan."

Quema and Solobo had previously mentioned a Deoz Clan. They belonged to a faction worshiping the God of Handicraft Genoz, and thus were widely recognized for their skills in tailoring clothes and forging armor.

After I explained all that to the others, Dokoko-san and the other villagers took Muu and Riedel with them and left my house. Professor Domidon and Mie-san left together with Gramps Ton while talking about his favorite research topic - nuts.

Bucchi chased after Mie-san, exclaiming, "Ah, Mie-san, please wait for me. Let us eat this dish together――"

Even though Ciel looked sleepy, I couldn't get her to go to sleep. She played with the cat dolls on the floor while resting on a sofa located in a corner of the first floor.

I got Hina-san and Sana-san to go to sleep on the second floor. After all, I'd fool around with everyone late into the night for the first time in a while.

Then we had a table tennis tournament, enjoying various sorts of matches.

◇◇◇◇

As we applauded Eva, who had won a hard fought battle, my eyes met with Kisara's and she smiled kindly at me. She walked up and sat down next to me. Then she leaned her body against my left side.

…She smells nice. I wonder whether it's the "Chandana Perfume" that has been passed down in the desert region. Her eyes, as they stare at me through her mask, are prettier than usual. The gleam like polished, blue gems.

As I was enjoying the weight of Kisara's body and the soft touch of her boobs, Sarah nestled up to me from my right side. She also smelled nicely.

She was looking up to me with her small cat ears twitching.

"I am, Nemus."

Nemus also closed in, but her movements were slow. On the way, Moga could be heard from somewhere, causing Nemus to stop.

Meanwhile I enjoyed the supreme bliss of being enveloped by Kisara and Sarah's warmth. But…Luciel and Bellize cast a glare our way. Moreover, Shuhelia, Rebecca…and even Higlia stared this way…

Then Adombrally started to act like a pervert, earning him the title of "Bobby Ero-Mini-Demon-King" from Rebecca. Of course he got pissed about that, but after getting scolded by Helme about overstepping his boundaries, he spread his small wings and flew away.

It wasn't as though his flight speed was overly fast, but it was cute nonetheless. He approached Shuhelia's head, who had laughed about the entire horseplay.

"Do you have any business with me, Sir Ero-Globe?"

"Kuu! Even if you're giving me new names…currently I might look like this, but I used to be a demonic marquis capable of creating dried, tough air!"

"Bloody hell! What a high-spirited bobby globe you are! Come to think of it, Shuuya, you're not going to call your Burning Knights to this party?" Moga asked while nibbling on Gramps Ton's food.

"I don't mind calling them over, but those guys are training in the Spirit World, and they're called "knights" because they hold territory, even if it might be small, right?"

This caused Shuhelia to react by twitching the eyebrows. After looking at my Dark Hell Bone ring, she deliberated, and soon moved her attractive, pink lips, "During the previous battle, I took a look at Your Majesty's――" and then while bowing her head and performing some Spirit World Knight etiquette I didn't know, "――Burning Knights."

Everyone, including Quiche, paid attention to Shuhelia's movements just now. She flaunted her dignity as my <Demonic Twin Blood Knight> while aware of the attention.

It sounded like she was curious about her seniors as my knights, the Burning Knights. She looked at my ring once more.

"…Back during our fight when you rode that demonic beast, huh? If I remember correctly Delhart and another female Spirit World Knight were present too."

『The blood and flesh from that time, right? It tasted so-so』, Saraten throbbed inside my left hand.

…She ended up killing a pretty woman, even if she was an enemy.

"Yes. Her name was Emilia. Unable to sufficiently overcome your weapon as a war-loving Spirit World Knight, she fell together with her Mugh. "Surautel-sama of the Dark Sword Wind," who granted her his divine protection, must have been upset by that."

That's a god I hear about for the first time. If you consider the Dark Sword Wind part, he's gotta be a bandit or assassin god. I guess he belongs to a system different from Terrifying King Noctal, huh? So Surautel-sama hates me now, eh…?

『Suraute? That's a name I don't know. Is he a god who was sealed like me?』

『Who knows? I won't give you any blood, you know?』

『Humph! Vessel, thou sure get how we work!』

I thought you were on the side of the divine domain in the past, but nowadays you're monster girls lusting after blood and flesh?

…was my thought on this, but I didn't pass it on to her.

"Surautel-sama of the Dark Sword Wind, huh? Sebdola does have quite a lot of gods, doesn't it? We talked about it before for a bit, but are there any beings similar to Demonic Emperor Ciphol?"

"I don't know much about Ciphol-sama. There exist countless gods in the Spirit World who lost their divinity."

"Fors example?"

"…Heavenly Magic Empress Melidia, Demonic Empress Rapunzel, Mad Divine Beast Senshibal, Crazy King Britolar, Royal Demon of Lust Todogh Gogh…Four――"

"Hmm? Wait a sec. Melidia? Not Meliady?"

The Spirit World goddess favoring Rubia was Meliady, the Ruler over Demonic Life.

"It's unclear whether they're related to each other, but it's said that Melidia looked just like Meliady-sama. It seems there even exists an anecdote about her, stating that she caused huge havoc during a Great Spirit World War long ago."

"Great Spirit World wars that tore dimensions have occurred many times through history all over its vast domain. It wouldn't have been strange at all even if Ciphol-sama, who made a name for himself in my territory, was an unknown Spirit World Knight in the grand scheme. The Spirit World and divine domain are vast. They're huge worlds containing everything, be it rivers, mountains, valleys, or volcanoes."

I nodded at Adombrally's comment. And then I touched my Dark Hell Bone Knight ring, thinking I might as well summon the Burning Knights in response to Shuhelia's look.

"Nn, you're going to call puff-puffs?"

"I thought I might as well."

And then the two knights appeared just as always. Zemetas and Adomos vigorously gave their greetings, but in the midst of that, they noticed the relaxed atmosphere in the room.

"This is His Excellency's home…so you're not going to fight."

"But, the bloodkin-sama have assembled as well."

"True. It won't be a mock battle either. I called you guys to introduce you to her."

The two knights looked at Shuhelia. Their burning eyes in the eye sockets caused one to fear them as it looked as if countless raptor claws had amassed there.

"She's former Spirit World Knight Shuhelia who's become our new friend as you probably know by now," I shifted my eyes from the Burning Knights to Shuhelia, "Shuhelia, the red knight on the left is Adomos, and the black on is Zemetas. These two are connected to my evolved magic tool."

Shuhelia lowered her head and genuflected in front of the two.

"Okay. Zemetas-sama, Adomos-sama, my name is Shuhelia. I have become His Majesty's personal <Demonic Twin Blood Knight>. I look forward to working with yo…"

"Nyano~" Rollo replied instead of the Burning Knights.

Moreover, she climbed on Shuhelia's shoulder. While supporting her small body by hooking her tentacles on her shoulder and neck, she delivered several left-hook-like cat punches against the knot of blond hair in the back of Shuhelia's head.

"It looks like Lady Rollo-sama has taken a liking to you."

I couldn't tell from his expression, but Zemetas's tone felt to me as though he was laughing.

Shuhelia groaned as she felt Rollo's pads hit her nape. Her body trembled, and she adopted a seductive posture as if to endure a ticklish feeling.

"Shuhelia-dono! We also look forward to working with you! But we are in charge of His Excellency's protection!"

Shuhelia had become a feast for my eyes, but it didn't matter to the Burning Knights. They talked while exhibiting a terrifying spirit as they were going to expand the flames burning in their eye sockets.

"I agree with Adomos! I shall not yield my position as the crucial right vanguard of His Excellency Defensive Bone Formation."

So they decided on positions? And His Excellency Defensive Bone Formation seems to be a tactic.

"But, Shuhelia-dono, you have inherited the mana and blood of our Great Lord. You are a Spirit World directly under His Excellency."

"Yes, Zemetas is right on that. Still."

"Indeed, Adomos. Us "Burning Knights" don't plan to lose to you, Shuhelia-dono…"

After pulling off some more skits, the Burning Knights' greeting came to an end.

"…I shall serve so as to not lose to you two either…" Shuhelia politely answered to the two Burning Knights, but she seemed preoccupied with her back hair being battled.

Suddenly, Rebecca, who swooned over Rollo, cried out, "Rollo-chan! I also have blond hair!"

"Oh my, I have blond hair too. And mine is longer than yours, Rebecca-san." Bellize said, shifting her eyes from Rebecca's hair to…her chest.

This caused both to exchange frosty looks. For a while the air seemed to have frozen, but…I couldn't say anything as Rebecca's cold eyes and Bellize triumphant eyes clashed.

…I didn't point anything out. Luciel and Sarah laughed while Moga fiddled around with a leaf growing out of Nemus's leg.

"Nn, Rollo-chan, you like a hair style of bundling up the hair on the back?"

As if to break that atmosphere, Eva placed both hands on her lap while bending herself forward with a momentum as if she was going to kiss Rollo. Bellize and Rebecca looked at Rollo with the same pose as Eva.

Bellize trendy but light clothing combining silk and leather which would make it easy for her to fight as an archer.

Rollo turned her face towards the three, "Nn, nya?", tilting her head in confusion. And then she returned to focusing on Shuhelia's blond hair. It looked like Shuhelia's hair was more interesting for her.

Meanwhile I directed my attention to the big tits of Bellize and Eva. Bellize's white, charming boobs, which I could see through her decollete, had an overwhelming presence. Blood vessels were clearly visible on the upper part of her breasts.

Marvelous. Unconsciously I ended up praying towards Bellize as if offering a prayer to the God of Big Boobs.

Next, I shifted my eyes to Eva's boobs. They looked like they'd tear the button of her clothes at any moment. They were marvelous, too …But, right now is no sexy time. The Burning Knights, Adombrally, and Shuhelia are still present. Let's use the chance to talk about the Spirit World.

"…Burning Knights, please explain the situation in the Spirit World in a way that's easy to grasp."

"Yes, Your Excellency! Currently, our small territory is a place under a waterfall where Sonrissa graze in a region south-east of Gulganh…it's located deep in the backwoods."

Following the Burning Knights, Shuhelia also added, "…If you speak of the south-eastern region of Gulganh, it's a domain ruled by Demonic Duke Arizon."

"It's quite far away from the Hell Volcano Death Law," Adombrally muttered to supplement Shuhelia.

The A character vanished from his forehead. Does it last only a set time?

As if recalling something…Adombrally pointed his eyes to the upper left. He blinked his heavy-looking eyelid, and although his eye and mouth looked comical, his expression carried some classiness. I felt like you could sense a trace of his time as Demonic Marquis.

I also mentioned it during our contract-making, but if I succeed with my trip into the Spirit World, it might be a good idea to head for his hometown where he lived as Amshabis. I'm also interested in the Great Demonic Dragon Thime and the Hell Volcano Death Law, which seem related to Death God Beycalla, going by the name. I guess it's fine to call it a general interest in Sebdola.

"My eyelid has become heavy…I need a replenishment of mana, Milord." Adombrally said, not talking quickly for a change.

Then he returned to his crimson ring.

If I continue to wear this ring, I'll be able to learn <Fast Talking>. Then I'll buy magic books. Though I don't know how much time it'll take.

Afterwards, Higlia and Quiche, who had been silent so far, spoke with everyone about the policies of Cydale. And just when Moga & Nemus went back home and I sent the Burning Knights back to the Spirit World…

"Now then, Shuuya. Today I'm going to stay here…" Quiche announced before everyone else from the female camp.

By coincidence, her eyes looked in the same direction as Lash-san, her transparent sister ghost. Floating inside the room, Lash-san winked at me.

Afterwards…my flirting time with the girls of Red Tiger Storm and bloodkin started. I don't know whether Rollodeen got fed up with it, but…Lash-san definitely did.

I spent an intense, steamy night with all the women. Fortunately, the nights on this planet were long.

T/N: Cut a two-parter down to one part. Don't think you missed much or found anything out of order. If you did, feel free to comment. Rewriting stuff takes a bit more effort as it's extended editing, but I don't think it'll hurt this novel anyway.
