Story 30- The Burning Wick (3)

Chapter 52

As I expected, my current dire situation resolved quickly when I got Manar’s attention, but the price I had to pay was high.

“Rape? Our brother Iztal Juya went inside of the harem, and now, I guess he knows how to seduce men? Some kind of a secret skill he learned from the women?”

The brothers who have been chasing me shrugged their shoulders and pretended ignorance.

“I guess, Manar. We were just following our Juya, who is the most popular guy among us nowadays.”

I protested, “But just now, Nairim said to me…!”

One of the brothers grinned slyly and replied, “Oh, when Nairim said you were popular? Haha, we only wanted to be your friend, Juya. You must have misunderstood us. Did Nairim say something else to you?”

There was nothing I could say because I knew no one would believe me. I had to be satisfied with the fact that I was safe for now. If I continued to protest, I knew I would look ridiculous.

I mean, who would believe me? The truth was that Iztal Nairim and I slept together, and he promised to come for me again. Other brothers knew about this, and some of them, in fact, used my body for their own pleasure already. And they threatened to do it again, even if it’s against my will.

The truth was so outrageous, and I wasn’t going to gain anything from telling this to Manar. I decided that changing the subject would be the best course of action. I said to him, “Well, thanks anyway, Manar, for taking control of this situation. By the way, how are you feeling? I saw you recently in the washroom, and it seemed like you were hurt. You were bleeding…”

“…? What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

Well, this was awkward. I felt everyone staring at me, so without another word, I left. I returned to the castle quietly.

It was apparent that no one liked me. They wanted my body, but nothing more. I was sure they wanted me to leave this place.

The only person that might care for me was Eriez. I missed him. I wanted to see him, but even if he wasn’t there for me, it was still okay. I was doing fine on my own. I was a fighter, after all.

Wanting to be alone in a quiet place, I decided to go see the warrior. Perhaps he would be kind to me and let me sleep in his arms like last night.

However, I made a mistake of keeping my guard up.

“Huh?”

“Hey, you jerk. How dare you hit me back there?”

I had no idea there was someone following me, but suddenly, someone appeared from the shadow and dragged me to the nearby dark alley. He gagged my mouth with his hand and tapped my head with the back of his sword like I did a moment ago.

It was the gatekeeper. I wished I could just apologize to him and escape this place, but I could tell that he wanted something from me. When I didn’t fight back, he dropped his sword and began to grope my rear. His hand moved downward.

“So I hear you treat your brothers very well with your body… And you aren’t dramatic like the girls when you spread your legs for them… I had no idea you would hit me with your sword just because I grabbed you back there. What the hell was that?”

“Well…”

“You don’t want to do it with me? Is that it? Yet you let the others have you any time they want? Even just now, you let them have you outside, didn’t you?”

“W-what? No. That’s not it. What are you talking about?”

“I heard you walk around with your assh*le filled with other people’s semen. It’s true, isn’t it? Ha…. And you smell yummy too… Just take your pants off. If you let me do you just once, I will forget about you hitting me back there.”

The gatekeeper offered me a solution to this situation. How kind.

Usually, I could have just escaped him, but I thought that perhaps it wouldn’t be a bad idea for him to just have me this once. Maybe it would be easier and simpler.

I wondered if the warrior expected something like this to happen.

“Mmhh… N-no! Stop!”

I lowered my body and tripped him. Without looking back, I began to run as fast as I could. Unfortunately, it seemed that I sprained my ankle when I fell off the stump because I began to limp. I couldn’t run very fast, but thankfully, the gatekeeper wasn’t allowed to stray too far from the gate, so he didn’t come after me.

Enemies were everywhere. I was surrounded by opponents.

Gosh… How did this happen? I could no longer protect even my own body.

“Dammit…”

The sun was setting. I was covered in dust and dirt, so I had to wash up again before reporting to the warrior. I also realized that there were several cuts on my body. If I returned to our selamlique to get cleaned up, I had no doubt I would end up facing the brothers again.

That would be a suicidal mission.

So, in the end, I reported to the Goddess’s warrior and, with a deep bow, apologized to him. “… I am sorry I didn’t come here clean, My warrior.”

I must have been a sight. Dirt, dust, blood, and cuts. I couldn’t bring myself to tell him why I was in such a state. I wasn’t sure if he knew what happened, but he didn’t fault me or reprimand me.

“Is that so? Well, we should go to my washroom, and you should help me bathe.”

I was so thankful for his generosity and kindness.
