Chapter 69 Lilith Got Caught

(Looks like you're having a blast, boy. So the subjugation had started, I see) (Hestia)

Hestia's voice sounded from inside Lyan's head.

(Yeah. We departed yesterday. By the way, where are the others? All of you had been rather quiet since yesterday) (Lyan)

(Ah. They are still interrogating and punishing Lilith, you see) (Hestia)

Hearing Hestia's dubious tone, Lyan had sensed a bad premonition.

(Interrogation? What interrogation?) (Lyan)

(Hm? What interrogation, I wonder) (Hestia)

Hestia's ice-cold voice made Lyan shiver on the spot.

*******************************************************

---The moment after Lyan's and Lilith's Ritual of Love---

"*Phew!* That was amazing. I might fall in love because of his thing if I'm not careful," Lilith cleaned up the bizarre scene inside her room with her magic, and not long after, the room had reverted to the usual state.

"But unlike with the pink-haired girl, there is no egg coming out after our deed. Does having sex with us, spirits, didn't count on the function? There is no announcement mentioning about being the Summoner's Wife as well. Is it because I have no intentions of becoming his wife yet?" (Lilith)

As she pondered about the difference between her intercourse and the girls before her, Lilith realized a single strange additional word that she uttered.

"Eh? Silly me, what do I even mean by yet? It's not like I'll have any intention of becoming his wife in the future as well anyway," Lilith uttered to herself as if trying to assure herself, but her tone and her expression wouldn't be able to convince anyone including herself. She could still feel the warmth and the gentle caress of his hands.

Not to mention, he also came from the tribe that she's familiar with, and is considered as their savior by the man in his past. And his past that is filled with mysteries, he got lots of plus points as a man.

(And his skills are crazy! This is bad! I need to contain my heart!) (Lilith)

"Don't falter, Lilith! You haven't achieved your target yet! At least until I have achieved my target!! No! Even if I achieved my target, I won't trust any man anymore... Maybe... Argh!!" Lilith rustled her hair because of her unstable mind.

"All of this is master's fault. Not only did he peek into my past, but he also let me peek into his past as well, making me getting even drawn to him. Argh! This is driving me mad!!" (Lilith)

Rather than Lyan's fault, it's the summoning grimoire that let them peek into each other's past. But for Lilith that needs a living person to blame, she prefers to put the blame on Lyan rather than the summoning grimoire.

"I guess I'll make a cup of warm chocolate from master's room to calm myself first. I wonder what the others are do-" As Lilith was about to hold the handle of the door, her sensitive ears caught the small noise from outside.

"(Hey! Ice woman! Stop pushing!)"

"(It's your fault for taking too much space)"

"(Sstt!! They are in the middle of doing a holy act of love, let me focus, I want to hear their proof of love)"

Griselda's, Eira's, and Cynthia's voices sounded quietly from the other side of the door.

"(Hm? Doesn't it seems that it's getting too much quiet inside the room)"

"(M-m-maybe we got noticed...?)"

"(It's fine even if we're noticed, Sylphia. We're not in the fault, it's theirs for doing such an obscene thing without permission in this house)"

"(What are sis Lilith is doing inside?)"

"(I guess you don't need to know about it yet, Azelia...)"

Hestia's, Sylphia's, Arturia's, and Azelia's voices sounded from there as well.

Hearing Arturia's line, cold sweats started to profusely fall from Lilith. She's sure that they are in their rooms, and they usually regather again in the living room in the evening, so she's confident that she won't get caught.

(J-Just how did they know? Did any of them put a kind of surveillance spell on this room? This is bad... What should I do...?) (Lilith)

As Lilith is thinking about what course of action she should take, Griselda's voice sounded again from the other side of the door.

"I'm done. This position is making my back sore, let's just barge in!" (Griselda)

*Bam!*

Griselda opened the door in a rough manner, revealing Lilith and the room that had reverted to normal.

"What are you guys doing? Did you play another game without inviting me?" Lilith pretends ignorant of what they are doing.

"Cynthia!" Arturia signaled Cynthia.

"Yes," Cynthia immediately went to Lilith's bed.

"Hey! Wai- What are you doing!? Let me go!!" (Lilith)

By Arturia's orders, Griselda and Eira quickly restrained her from intervening in Cynthia's investigation. Cynthia that had arrived at the bed, started to sniff around the bed.

"So? How is it, Cynthia?" (Arturia)

"Hm. There is definitely Master's scent left in the bed. Even though she had cleaned the room with her magic, it seems that she leave the scent behind for her to smell for herself," (Cynthia)

"Scent? I don't know what you're talking about," (Lilith)

"Stop feigning ignorance. You know that you're a bad liar yourself," (Hestia)

"Hm..." Cynthia puts her hand on her chin and approached Lilith with a serious expression as her gaze got fixed on Lilith's lower body.

"C-Cynthia? W-Wait!!" (Lilith)

*Whoosh!*

Cynthia suddenly lowered her pajama pants, and the crucial evidence of their 'deed' could be clearly seen as white fluids slowly flow down to her thighs from her crotch.

"Whoa... She didn't even scrape all of them out even though she had cleaned the room up. What a pervert. She must be thinking of savoring the excitement of talking with us with semen inside her crotch. As expected of a succubus," (Griselda)

"I'm not! It's just that the amount of master's load is too much and it's hard for me to scrape all of them!!" Lilith retorted.

"Ah, she admitted it," (Eira)

"Yeah. She admitted it, didn't she?" (Hestia)

"S-She did!" (Sylphia)

"So what should we do with her, Arturia?" (Griselda)

Following Griselda, everyone's attention gathered on Arturia.

"A-Arturia?" Lilith gave Arturia a pleading look.

"......." Arturia replied to her call with a smile.

"Arturia!" Lilith's face brightens when she saw Arturia's smile, thinking that she wouldn't be facing any punishment or-

"It's time for interrogation and punishment. Everyone, we'll extract every bit of information possible from this girl," (Arturia)

"""Okay!"""

************************************************

(That's all that happened) (Hestia)

Hestia explained everything about what happened but not in so much detail.

(I-I see...) (Lyan)

(We're aware that it's not your fault. We have no agreement prohibiting you from touching any of us with mutual consent, so you're not in the wrong. But we've made an agreement with ourselves to share the information we got or figured out with each other) (Hestia)

(Especially when one of us suddenly wanted to do the intercourse to get her contract duration shortened. Everyone is hesitant of doing so since we're not cheap and loose women, but because of this case, it might give unease to the others) (Hestia)

(I see...) (Lyan)

(That's why they are going to squeeze every last bit of information from Lilith, and give her the punishment for sneaking around behind our back)

(I understand... But-) (Lyan)

Lyan understands Hestia's point of explanation clearly, but what he didn't understand is why is she telling him the internal information of the spirits? It's more advantageous for her to keep the information to themselves rather than tell him about it.

(Why are you telling me this?) (Lyan)

(Hm... Why I wonder) (Hestia)

Hestia responds with a scoff to herself. But Lyan didn't feel that the scoff is meant to mock him, it was more like a scoff to herself since she didn't even know the reason why she is telling him the internal matters of the spirits.

(Hey, Bo- Lyan. Why did you accept her invitation to sleep with her? Are you just that lustful for a beautiful woman? Or did you pity our cause? Or is it just because you wanted to test the grimoire's abilities? Or is it because you've fallen in love with her or want her to fall in love with you? Which one?) (Hestia)

Lyan chuckled.

(All of it, I guess) (Lyan)

(All of it?) (Hestia)

(Yeah. Well, I guess the part of pitying your causes is not that much, though. But for the other reasons, you could say that all of them are right) (Lyan)

(It's a lie if I say I'm not interested in sleeping with beautiful women such as you guys, and I wanted to test what kind of abilities I might get from the grimoire too, and I believe it's not strange for a man to want to make a beautiful woman fall in love with himself, right? So all of them. Since in the end, I'm just a normal guy with a rather high sexual drive, after all) (Lyan)

(Fu- Fufufufu!) (Hestia)

Hestia let out a muffled laugh.

(What is it?) (Lyan)

(Nothing. It's just that you're so greedy, aren't you? Freely asking for such things in such a blunt manner. You really have no limits in your wish, aren't you?) (Hestia)

(To wish for some things without having to care about limits, without any need to search for a just cause for those whims, and to live without care about what people think of me) (Lyan)

"Well, that's my definition of 'Freedom', I guess," (Lyan)

(Fufu! What a horrible yet interesting man, you are) (Hestia)
