"Ah, right, Master."
"Hmm? What is it?"
"Chu-pu, boo♡haa♡Hmm...♡haa...♡" After the commemorative party for the renovation of the building and shops.
On the large bed, made by piecing together 3-4 king-size double beds that I had been looking forward to, unlike before, my females were licking my Сock in a relaxed posture.
Ha...it's really great. A spacious and luxurious house. Females serving me. The blissful state of starting my business tomorrow.
Plus this bed. It's definitely worth the price. Although the height is low due to its large size, it's so comfortable that I want to just accept the service and fall asleep.
"Our beast's slaves. How about building a dormitory for them on the 7th floor?"
"...Beast's slaves?"
"Boo...♡They're our employees. Master gave our employees a name when he was processing documents." Wh...what?
Slaves?
Oh my god. This is a bit much, isn't it?
They're just employees...?
While there were indeed a few instances of mating by accident... even so, calling women who aren't my females slaves?
"Calling them slaves is a bit much... Could it be forced?"
"How could that be?♡ Everyone seems quite happy about it! If you don't believe me, just ask them tomorrow♡"
Their expressions don't seem like they're lying... wait, they're happy calling themselves slaves? Could they be infatuated with my Сock? But it only happened once... hmm. I completely don't understand.
"Hmm... speaking of which... you said it was a dormitory? The 7th floor?"
"Yes. We slaves, after all, aren't in a good situation. I heard we either live in slums near the south city wall or in dilapidated houses that are about to collapse."
Oh no. I didn't expect that. Since even food and clothing are a problem, I should have considered their accommodation.
...If we exclude the 1st floor, which I'm currently considering 'that', I was originally planning to collect rent from the 3rd to the 7th floors and rent out some shops... clearing out one floor shouldn't be a problem, right?
Although there's a basement level, it's really just a small storage room, so let's leave it at that... um... okay.
After all, these are employees who will stay and work; their benefits need to be guaranteed.
"Not bad? If I'd known it would be like this, I should have torn down the wall on the 7th floor and renovated it."
"If we tore down all the walls on the 7th floor, the building might be in danger. There are six offices on the 7th floor; clearing out just one would be enough."
That's true. After all, tearing down a perfectly good wall is no small matter.
Hmm... thinking back to the offices I've seen, they have everything I need; if it's just for sleeping, I could go straight in.
Maybe all that's needed is to modify the washing machine and shower room... Since we've come this far, let's get it done as soon as possible.
"Eight people. Is one office enough?"
"It's nine people. Sally mentioned she has a younger sister and said she'd bring her over soon."
"With the office space on the 7th floor, it should be able to accommodate 15 people. Although there aren't any private rooms, everyone should be satisfied."
Hmm… In Sally's case, she's essentially our manager or shopkeeper at Holshof, so bringing one or two family members wouldn't be a problem… Wait a minute.
Lisbeth said she's bringing someone over, why does that sound so unsettling?
"Lizbeth. Is Sally's sister also in our tavern?"
"Yes. I heard that when Sally was being chased by loan sharks, she secretly hid her young sister, vowing to at least protect her. Now that the debt is paid off, and she's working at the owner's shop, she said she wants to arrange for her sister to work here too."
"It seems that after she reached working age, she's been working part-time, hiding from Viper's Fang's spies. She'll come over immediately after the handover; she should be here when the dormitories are ready."
"…How old is she?"
"She said she's 20."
Phew. That's good. I thought you were going to bring minors into the tavern.
Yes.
Although I've been feeling a little uneasy lately about my females, surely it's not like I'd let minors work in the tavern?
Even though the adult age in Esendia is 16… our tavern doesn't follow that rule.
Anyone under 19 is unacceptable.
I'd get really uneasy.
Looks like my unease was just unfounded… thank goodness.
That's more like it. Even if I've been a little uneasy lately, my females wouldn't do anything against common sense, right?
"Yes. Thank goodness…"
"Sally said she's going to offer that child to Master as well, so let's welcome her properly when she arrives~♡"
"Hehe♡ The family is getting a new member♡"…Wh…what?
Wait, what did I just hear?
"Ah! Speaking of new members, I remember now, Master. When you went to deliver a gift to Miss Liana, didn't you suggest moving the shop?"
"Yes, yes… that's what happened." The day the renovation began.
When I went to deliver gifts to Leona and Sera, I pleaded with Leona not to resign and to move into the first floor of my building.
After all, Leona is a renowned designer of sexy clothing perfectly suited to my taste, and I hoped she could make clothes for my females.
However, Leona was in an awkward position at the time, and considering this, after I made an exception, she only said she needed time to consider… No, no. That's not the point.
"Hmm… since she's hesitating, why not take this opportunity to make Miss Leona one of my females as well…"
"Ah! Perfect! I was just thinking of asking her to make clothes!"
"Yes. I also want to order another new set… Hmm. The timing is perfect♡"
Now, the important thing is the unease I sense from my females…
"Although they seem quite infatuated with Master, they also subtly resist… what should I do?"
"How about turning her into a slave? That way, it won't take much time."
"Hmm… this is a female Master quite favors… turning her into a slave would be a bit of a waste, wouldn't it?" Lately, my females seem to be slipping out of my control… this subtle feeling.
"So creating the right setting is really important, isn't it? Like, a time when we're alone with Master?"
"Yes. Now we have a stable place. We just need to seduce her a little..."
No. That's not right. This isn't so much a loss of control... it's more like they're trying to manipulate me according to their own will... that feeling.
...When did this start?
This sense of unease began?
"Not bad♡ It feels like you're making rapid progress in every aspect?"
"Hehe. We need to quickly add more females♡ The renovations cost a lot of money, so bringing in females with business experience first is a good idea♡"
My females, clutching my Сock, chuckled happily.
Not long ago, they were secretly plotting something, watching my every move... Ever since the building was completed, the two of them have become inexplicably excited, and now they even discuss those kinds of topics in front of me, ignoring my expressions.
They don't consider my opinions or my feelings...
"Master~ What do you think? We'll help, let's make Miss Leona one of Master's females too♡"
"We'll assist you♡ Master, just enjoy yourself♡" Just enjoy yourself? No, this won't do.
While I'm pleased by my females' willingness to help me, this won't do.
I don't know when it started, but my females have overstepped their bounds.
They no longer follow my will as their master; instead, it's as if they're trying to mold my will.
Even though they are incredibly cute females… as their master, I must correct their misbehavior.
"Lizbeth. Claire."
"…Huh? Master?"
"…Ah, oh dear… M-Master…?" I stepped back, retrieving the Сock they were holding, my eyes, now horizontal pupils due to my Mystic Eyes, narrowed as I stared at them.
Perhaps sensing my aura, Lizbeth and Claire's expressions gradually stiffened.
…Seeing my females with those expressions is painful… but I must make things clear.
"…Why, when I didn't ask for anything, did you just randomly give me females?"
Fear appeared on Lizbeth's face, and astonishment settled in Claire's Mystic Eyes.
"How dare you disregard your master… Now, are you unwilling to submit to my dominion?"
I tried my best to hide the slight guilt in my heart, displaying my anger and frustration as their master to my females.
Before they could answer, Lisbeth and Claire pressed their foreheads against the bed with almost rehearsed speed…
"I'm sorry!!! Master!!!"
"An apology from my females, filled with fear, that I had never heard before erupted.
