“*Hmm…*”
It was noon with the sun hanging high in the sky.
The pleasantly warm sunlight was shining fiercely, making it a perfect day for laundry.
While hanging the laundry, I ended up lost in thought.
“*Oh, brother… you’ve been taking care of me so much without me realizing it…*”
I learned a lot about Schlus’s other sides that I hadn’t known before.
I was receiving quite special treatment.
I realized that a bit too late.
For starters, Schlus spends most of his time eating and sleeping at this house with me.
What I thought was normal was something that other women couldn’t enjoy, and it complicated my thoughts a little.
The special treatment didn’t stop there.
For instance, when it came to my first experience, Schlus managed to hide the damp castle wall pretty well, acting normal and kind.
Of course, these days, he seemed to have no intention of hiding that wall at all and tried all kinds of strange things…
Someone said they were shocked to hear that a person’s first experience was with three people.
“*So guys really like that sort of thing?*”
It couldn’t be that Schlus lacked sexual desire just because he was Schlus.
I even felt a bit guilty, wondering if he didn’t propose anything because he knew I looked unfavorably upon the increasing number of wives.
Sure, there were still some uncomfortable individuals, but recently, we had been getting closer through regular Harem Meetings.
To be precise, my reluctance wasn’t really towards them; it was more complaints about Schlus’s determination to charm them all into marriage.
“*It must be something he likes too… that… three-some thing…*”
If he didn’t like it, he wouldn’t have jumped straight into that when he was with the first-timers.
He was definitely hiding it in front of me, but there was no doubt he liked it a lot.
I found Schlus’s little considerations towards me endearing.
Yet, no matter how I thought about it, it seemed a bit pitiful that he couldn’t openly express his preferences and had to hide them.
Moreover, thinking that he reveals his hidden preferences without hesitation in front of other women made me a bit envious…
“*Hmm! I’ve made up my mind!*”
“*What about?*”
“*Hya?!*”
Just as I resolved myself, I jumped in surprise at the voice coming from behind me.
There was Miss Pelaine, dressed in maid attire, tilting her head with those large ears perked up.
“*Oh, I was just talking to myself…*”
“*Hehehe. Do you need help hanging the laundry?*”
“*Oh, that would be super helpful.*”
“*Ehehe. I just woke up and was feeling restless.*”
“*Wait a moment, come here. You can’t wear your clothes like that.*”
“*Hmm?*”
Upon seeing Miss Pelaine’s outfit, I let out a *sigh* right away.
She was wearing a maid uniform, but it was all crumpled and messy.
I rolled up my sleeves, walked behind Miss Pelaine, tidied her clothes, and tied the messy apron strings into a pretty bow.
“*You can’t tie the strings like this. How will you undo it later?*”
“*Huh, I was supposed to undo it? I was just going to rip it off.*”
“*…*”
She usually seemed like a clumsy subhuman girl, but in moments like this, it felt as if I was dealing with a superhuman from another world.
Miss Pelaine had quit being the empire’s best swordswoman to live in our home.
She felt that going back to the Holy Knights would have her new commander watching her closely, so she simply became an unemployed bum.
To be honest, I didn’t like her at first, but after spending time together, I’ve grown quite close to her.
Although she was clumsy, I appreciated her adding to the chores.
I couldn’t get used to her lying down to nap whenever she felt like it or breaking a mop out of frustration, but…
“*Is this how you hang it?*”
“*You need to be careful not to fold it. You have to spread it out like this to avoid wrinkles.*”
“*Aha…*”
“*If you flick it like this, you can hang it properly without wrinkles.*”
“*Wow! How do you know all this, Emilia? That’s amazing.*”
“*It’s just this much…*”
It felt like I was living with someone from a completely different world.
Maybe it was because she had spent her whole life on the battlefield…
When she was in armor with a sword, she looked strong and cool, but living with her felt like having a cute younger sister, making every day enjoyable.
“*Ugh… it’s so high…*”
“*I’ll hang it there. Give it to me. Heave-ho!*”
“*Thank you, Miss Pelaine.*”
“*Anytime! But… huff, huff… hmm…*”
“*…?”*
As she stuck right behind me to hang the laundry, Miss Pelaine suddenly started sniffing my scalp.
Was this normal for subhumans…?
I was perplexed, but knowing there was no malice, I wasn’t scared.
“*Hmm… Emilia’s hair smells… nice…*”
“*What are you talking about? I use shampoo.*”
“*But it feels different somehow. Is it a unique body scent? For some reason, I want to keep smelling it.*”
“*…*”
This girl shared quite a few similar traits with my brother.
To think she even had an extreme smell fetish!
Maybe perverts end up meeting each other.
“*Ah, I’m done! Is the housework finished for today? Can I go sleep now?*”
“*Not yet. We have to wash the dishes from earlier and clean up before your brother comes back. And there’s also…*”
“*Um… can I quit being the house maid?*”
“*Of course not.*”
I couldn’t let her quit now that I finally found help.
Of course, Miss Pelaine had no real intention of leaving the house.
The reason she settled here instead of finding a hundred other places was undoubtedly my brother.
“*Hmm… I feel sort of sluggish. Emilia, have you thought about learning swordsmanship? I hear there’s a training room in the basement. I can teach you the basics there!*”
“*After we finish the work.*”
“*Ugh. But I want to sleep…*”
“*You just woke up a while ago. If you answer one question, I’ll let you sleep.*”
“*Oh! Really?! Ask me anything!*”
Miss Pelaine wagged her big tail excitedly as she leaned in closer.
Since sending her to do chores would just result in her breaking mops again, it was actually easier to let her rest somewhere out of the way.
Anyway, it was hard to finally ask the question that I kept pondering.
I hesitated briefly in front of Miss Pelaine’s sparkling eyes, biting my lips before finally speaking.
“*Um… Miss Pelaine… I have a question…*”
“*Yes! What is it? What is it? Hmm? Yes?*”
“*When you are with that, with my brother… no, with Schlus… what do you do…*”
“*Oh! You mean sexual intercourse?*”
“*…*”
Ah, she got it all at once, making me blush again.
I shut my eyes tightly for a moment, then barely managed to continue speaking.
“*Um, when it happens… how do you usually do it?*”
“*Hmm. Are you asking about positions or techniques? I think Schlus likes my tail a lot, so he usually makes me lie down and touches my tail from behind. Also, he seems to like my ears, so he fondles the inside of my ears and blows air into them, making me tingle, and he enjoys it when I flop my ears.* And sometimes, he even wraps my tail around…*”
“*T-That’s enough, thank you! I need to go to sleep now!*”
“*Okay then…*”
I couldn’t hold it anymore and ran away.
I see. My brother really loves fur.
Would I like it more if I also had animal ears and a tail?
I’m not so sure about that…
I suppose I would like it my way, and Miss Pelaine would like it her way; my brother would have said that, but that didn’t mean his fur fetish would just disappear.
This meant Schlus had to keep hiding that damp castle wall when he was with me.
Thinking about that made me feel a bit sorry for Schlus.
“*Miss Pelaine!*”
“*Huh…?”*
When I hurried back, I found Miss Pelaine curled up on the living room table, trying to sleep.
I couldn’t understand why she would sleep there instead of on the bed or the sofa…
Anyway, it wasn’t the time to worry about that.
“*I have a suggestion for you.*”
“*A suggestion…?*”
I truly made my resolution.
I had to say it.
*
After finishing a meal at the Imperial Palace, as the sun began to set… I headed back home.
The chefs at the palace were, of course, superb.
Every dish was clearly made with the finest ingredients.
Yet, for some reason, Emilia’s cooking felt cozier and more delicious.
It was strange.
“*Wow. What a view.*”
Today, I decided to walk slowly rather than using teleportation.
The setting sun painting the wide boulevard red was a beautiful scene.
I wanted to leave some words like, “Thanks for today’s hard work,” somewhere.
“*What’s going on?*”
When I returned home, it was oddly quiet inside.
With the sound of the door opening, I heard a constant *thud-thud* from the ceiling, suggesting Miss Pelaine and Emilia were upstairs.
In the corner of the entrance lay a broken broom and mop, suggesting what had happened today.
It looked like Emilia had a bit of trouble with her super-strength newcomer again.
*What could they be doing up there together?*
I decided to head upstairs to greet them.
I wondered why it was so quiet; it was hard to believe they didn’t hear I had arrived.
When I opened the door to the bedroom without thinking, I was greeted by…
“*Oh, welcome. Brother…*”
“*You’re here, Miss Schlus?*”
Two girls in flowing thin underwear were kneeling on the bed, looking shy as they welcomed me.
A small candle on the table in the dimly lit bedroom cast a gentle glow.
“*Wow. What a view.*”
I couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
