Free Web NovelChapter 53: Sludge Slime
"U-um... Does that mean... you’re going to break my front teeth again?"
Amand’s front teeth had been broken by Rigel during her rape. To be precise, Rigel had deliberately punched her in the mouth because they got in the way during fellatio. The pain had been so intense that she cried nonstop even after the rape ended. At first, Rigel had planned to leave them broken, but since she wouldn’t stop crying, he reluctantly healed them with a potion.
This was one of the "debts" Amand owed him. Though it was rather hypocritical since he was the one who caused the injury in the first place.
"Hmph. There’s no benefit to me if I break them again after healing them once. What I’m talking about is the sword hanging at your waist."
"T-This sword...?"
What Amand pulled out was a steel sword. The blade was thick, sturdy, and incredibly sharp. It even possessed a slight magical effect. For a former squad captain who was currently a sex slave — even one who boasted about becoming a Sword Saint — it was far too good a weapon.
"That’s right. Return that sword. It was originally prepared for a commander-class officer of the Goussel Marquis Army. I only lent it to you temporarily because you begged for it."
"B-But this sword is necessary for me to become a Sword Saint..."
Rigel clicked his tongue at Amand’s protest.
"Not returning something you borrowed? What a shameless woman. —Oh, and while we’re at it, I’ll also stop giving you swordsmanship lessons."
"Whaaat!?"
Amand cried out in shock. Her mind went completely blank.
"That’s unacceptable! P-Please! Continue teaching me...!"
"Are you stupid? I only trained you because I thought it would be interesting to have different types of sex slaves. Now that you’re free, you’re just a stranger with no connection to me, right?"
Rigel sneered. He had raped and turned many women into sex slaves, but he never kept them locked up for endless abuse. It wasn’t out of kindness or chivalry. He simply got bored. Violating the same woman over and over eventually became dull. The excitement came from making a maid act like a maid, a squad captain act like a squad captain, a warrior act like a warrior, and a princess act like a princess.
"S-Such a thing...!"
Seeing Amand crushed by despair, Rigel felt slightly amused. He delivered one final blow.
"Ah, that’s right. There’s one more thing."
"There’s still more!?"
"I won’t be fucking you anymore. You don’t need to suck my cock either."
"Eh...?"
Amand stared at him blankly.
"Didn’t you hear me? I won’t embrace you anymore, and you no longer have to service me."
"N-No way...! Am I no longer useful...?"
"Yeah. I have no need for a sex slave who’s forgotten to be grateful."
"..."
Amand stood frozen in a daze. She certainly held a grudge — her subordinates had been killed, her front teeth broken, and her virginity stolen. But after that, she had been healed, given a high-quality sword, received sword training, and above all, been given overwhelming sexual pleasure. All of it had changed her heart. If Rigel abandoned her now, she would have nothing left.
"Please don’t abandon meeeee!!!"
Amand screamed desperately. Tears streamed from her eyes. She had already become completely dependent on Rigel.
"Hmm. If you’re going to beg like that, I suppose I have no choice. I’ll continue keeping you as my sex slave."
"A-Aah..."
Amand smiled happily at Rigel’s wicked grin. But her joy was short-lived.
"Now then, let’s get back to the topic."
"Huh? Um... what were we talking about again...?"
"That thing. We were talking about that sludge clump." freewebnσvel.cѳm
Rigel pointed at the mass of sludge. While they had been arguing, it seemed to have grown slightly larger. The stench had also become stronger.
"I want to know what that thing really is. Amand, go closer and slash it with your sword."
"Eeeeh!? I don’t want to get close to something that filthy!"
"Stop complaining! Just do it! Unless you want to be abandoned!"
"Hiiieee!"
Under Rigel’s order, Amand hurriedly approached the sludge and swung her sword down.
At that moment— freewebnσvel.cѳm
『PIGYIIIIII!!』
A high-pitched shriek rang out as part of the sludge exploded outward.
---
Following Rigel’s orders, Amand approached the mass of sludge and swung her sword down.
『PIGYIIIIII!!』
With an unpleasant shriek, part of the mass burst apart and splattered. The scattered pieces wriggled like living creatures.
(Ugh!)
Amand instinctively grimaced. It was a sight that triggered strong physiological disgust.
At that moment—
『PIGI!』
Something suddenly flew out. No — it flew straight toward Amand.
"Kyaa!?"
Amand couldn’t react in time, but she fortunately avoided a direct hit. The object grazed her cheek and flew past behind her. She felt a sharp pain on her cheek; when she touched it, blood was seeping out. She was bleeding.
"Hey, you okay?"
Rigel rushed over with a worried look. His gaze landed on the object that had attacked Amand. It was oval-shaped and roughly 50 centimeters in diameter. Its color was a dark brownish-black, and its surface looked slimy and glossy. It was covered in viscous fluid and wriggled slowly.
(What the hell is that...?)
Amand had no idea what it was, but her instincts told her it was dangerous. Anything unidentified was terrifying.
"...I’m fine. It’s just a scratch."
Amand answered. As a young woman who had risen to the rank of squad captain, she wasn’t someone who would be troubled by minor injuries. At least, that would be true against normal creatures...
『PIGYUUUII!!』
The wriggling object let out an eerie cry. It was clearly not normal.
"I see... So this thing is the source of the stench. I think it’s called a Sludge Slime."
Rigel’s previous life was that of a Japanese person, but he also possessed memories of growing up as the eldest son of a marquis family in this world until the age of 12. While he wasn’t an expert on monsters, he had basic knowledge. That was how he recognized what was in front of them.
"Still, it looks filthy as hell..."
Rigel muttered with a disgusted expression. He wanted to leave this place as quickly as possible, but the problem was the size of the Sludge Slime before them. If they ignored it and continued deeper into Tosh, it would be extremely troublesome if it followed them and caused a commotion.
"Alright, Amand. Get rid of it."
"Haaah!?!"
Amand let out a ridiculous voice after being suddenly given such a ridiculous task. Ignoring her protest, Rigel continued:
"I’m the heir of a marquis family. There’s no way I’m touching something this disgusting."
"Y-You’re saying it’s fine if I get dirty...?"
Amand pouted unhappily. But—
"Exactly. You just swore your loyalty to me again as my sex slave earlier, didn’t you? Then it’s only natural for you to obey my orders, right? Or do you want to be set free after all?"
"Guh...! Uuu...!"
She couldn’t argue against that. Amand grit her teeth in frustration but readied her sword toward the Sludge Slime.
"Oh, I forgot to mention one thing. Make sure you don’t get your pussy dirty, okay? You’re my sex slave, after all. ...Though now that I think about it, it might already be too late..."
"Wha!? What do you mean by that!?"
"Well, you got hit on the cheek by that thing earlier, right? There might be some unknown poison entering through the wound."
"—!!"
Amand’s face twitched at Rigel’s remark. Now that he mentioned it, he might be right. She had thought it was just a normal scratch, but in such a filthy place, leaving an open wound could lead to infection.
"N-Nooo! I don’t want to die like that!!"
Amand was on the verge of panicking from fear. Seeing her reaction, Rigel smirked. This was exactly the kind of response he had been hoping for.
"Then hurry up and kill it already."
"Khh! You bastaaaaard!!"
Amand readied her sword once more. Then—
"Dieeeee!!"
She shouted as she slashed at it. However—
『PIGYIIIIII!!』
The Sludge Slime didn’t stay silent. It let out a loud screech and extended part of its body, transforming it into tentacle-like appendages that wrapped around Amand’s body over her armor.
"Ugh!? Aaaah!!"
Amand panicked at the sudden attack. She struggled desperately, but she couldn’t shake off the tentacles. It wasn’t that they were particularly strong — they were simply too viscous and slippery to get a proper grip on.
"Damn it! Get off me!!"
She cursed, but there was nothing she could do. More tentacles extended and coiled around her body.
"Hmm... Tentacle play, huh..."
Rigel watched for a while. He wanted Amand to handle it because the Sludge Slime was too dirty.
"Tentacle play is fine, but... a Sludge Slime is a no-go. There’s no way I can get hard while smelling something like this."
Rigel let out a small sigh and drew the sword hanging at his waist.
