This was the only option left; the two of them had no other choices.
The environnt of this world simply couldn't be compared to that of other worlds.
Origami was also quite helpless.
In the first world, although she heard rumors about demons and saw many monsters, most of those monsters had no interest in humans. As long as you followed certain rules, you wouldn't be hard.
So, while she were frightened, she didn't encounter any real hardship.
The second world was a modern one. Although the part-ti job life was a bit tough, she managed to live peacefully and even ended up doing quite well.
But this third world...
Marauding soldiers, bandits, and villagers with ill intentions.... in just these few days, she and Asuna had nearly been sold into slavery by villagers who had taken them in for shelter about seven or eight tis. While she could handle so people, Asuna didn't have that ability. She wasn't a soldier, but a genuine young lady from a prestigious family.
Such a person couldn't survive in such a chaotic world.
If it weren't for Esdeath, they would have been sold off within the first week!
"It seems you're not completely foolish; not just afraid of ."
Esdeath chuckled softly. One reason she brought these two girls along was to properly train them properly. After all, according to what Origami said, they would continuously travel to other worlds, each ti encountering powerful monsters.
This was very appealing to her!
Because her favorite thing is fighting, fighting, and more fighting.
Although recently I've been feeling a bit strange, wanting to find a man, the only man I'm looking for is one who can dominate .
If that wasn't possible, then I would have to find one with tender claws but imnse talent, whom I can easily manipulate and control.
Hmm, for the latter, he'd also need to have a nice smile.
And he couldn't be a person from a tribe that held a grudge against my tribe!
As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Asuna. Compared to the quiet Origami, she actually liked Asuna more because Origami was like her forr colleagues, they seed similar on the surface but were actually completely different.
As for Asuna, although she still had so pointless sympathy, her potential for growth was strong, and she had a latent desire for battle, just suppressed.
So, she decided to deliberately provoke her.
"No, it's not that..."
Asuna quickly waved her hands in denial. She was indeed sowhat afraid of Esdeath, but it wasn't dislike. It was more a feeling of guilt and an inability to accept.
She couldn't accept this world of survival of the fittest, this world without any laws or morals.
She simply couldn't understand those villagers. They accepted their money but, just to earn a little more, wanted to chop off their hands and feet and sell them to rchants as slaves. These were things she couldn't accept.
So, she had been seeming rather gloomy.
Origami was aware of this, but she was powerless to do anything about it. Soone with Asuna's background wouldn't have been exposed to such darkness. Plus, from what she learned, Asuna's hotown was a relatively peaceful world, making it even easier to understand why she couldn't accept these things, and why, even though they were 'teammates', Esdeath blatantly showed that she wouldn't hesitate to betray them if danger arose.
But in reality, she understood that Esdeath ant well!
Esdeath hadn't said much about her world, but from her deanor, Origami could tell she was a soldier like herself, no, soone who had surpassed her.
Judging by her weapons, she was likely a soldier from the more impactful era of cold weapons.
For soone like that to say such things was entirely normal!
"No need to bla yourself, Asuna. You're just not accustod to this world. Esdeath, where exactly are you planning to take us?"
Origami looked at Esdeath with confusion. Asuna's issues could only be adapted to gradually. Moreover, given Asuna's status, she could later acquire many things useful for their activities. So, she chose to change the subject.
"Hmm, a place called the First Fortress. They say it's the front line against the monster armies in this world. A rebellion happened there. A man led a force, overthrew the fortress, and made himself king."
A fanatical expression appeared on Esdeath's face. She loved ambitious people like this because when she encountered such individuals, she only needed to display her strength, and they would recruit her without hesitation, letting her lead troops into battle.
Compared to other things, she much preferred the battlefield!
Because the battlefield was the most realistic world of survival of the fittest, effectively weeding out the weak and allowing the strong and those with potential to showcase their power!
She loved such places the most!
"Do you intend to beco a general?"
Origami wasn't surprised. Although Esdeath was amiable when interacting with them, she was practically a demon in battle. So, she was well aware of Esdeath's strong love for combat.
"Of course. After all, compared to joining those so-called Seven Shields Alliance, I'd rather see soone who overthrew this world... Of course, if he's unwilling, I wouldn't mind making you the queen."
"?"
Origami looked at Esdeath in disbelief, but Esdeath just smiled.
"I don't like those troubleso paperwork duties. Those are the most boring things."
She simply enjoys war. For Esdeath, power or anything else was fine, as long as it didn't affect her waging war and enjoying it!
However, she paused for a mont when she said this.
"Of course, since I'm not sure about the power level of the strong individuals in this world, if I lose, I'll need you both to serve as compensation along with ."
A mischievous smile spread across her face.
She didn't particularly care about her virginity now. If soone could defeat her, bearing their child was only natural.
As long as the other party is willing.
As for why she brought these two deadweights along, it was simply because she didn't want to die now.
She had always been indifferent to her own life and death, since her tribe consisted only of her now. But the possibility of traveling to other worlds made her unwilling to die.
Because who knows, other worlds might have experts stronger than her! And possibilities for her to beco stronger!
"I see."
Origami didn't say anything more. It was clear that once they arrived, Esdeath was bound to fight the forces of the person who conquered the First Fortress.
When it ca ti to discuss terms of surrender, she and Asuna would clearly be part of the bargaining chips.
Honestly, she didn't want it to be this way. She had soone she liked. But the circumstances were forcing her hand; there was really no other way.
'I need to think of a way to escape.'
Origami couldn't help but think this.
She absolutely wouldn't let herself and Asuna beco part of Esdeath's compensation for defeat, as Esdeath envisioned!
Should I just run away?
However, it might be better not to run away. After all, without Esdeath's protection, she and Asuna would truly struggle to survive in this world.
Esdeath saw through her thoughts but simply smiled without mocking her naivety.
"Speaking of which, this guy's na is quite strange. Sothing like Rick or Rickie... seems like an ordinary person."
An unfamiliar na.
Origami shook her head.
"We'll know when we get there."
Esdeath let out a light laugh, casually waving her hand and finishing off a bandit who wasn't quite dead.
She had been hoping the bandit would try to take Origami or Asuna hostage to fight her, but instead, he wanted to get up after they left, which bored her.
While turning the last bandit into frozen powder, Esdeath suppressed her excitent. She genuinely wanted to know if the usurper had any potential for cooperation and whether the person who reportedly seized a country through sheer martial prowess had the ability to fight her!
. . .
One week later.
Ryuji, currently holding court, was unaware that his assigned teammates were fixated on fighting him and had even mispronounced his na. Right now, he was truly convinced of one thing:
Being a ruler really is sothing anyone can do.
Because ever since he took this position, all the incompetence he had witnessed before vanished.
No joke, it all vanished.
Corruption was gone because those who embezzled were executed, even if it was just two copper coins.
The knights and soldiers who once served the forr king and nobles now looked vibrant and held their heads high while patrolling, their armor polished enough to reflect one's face.
Slave traders in the city were eliminated because Ryuji had killed those involved in the trade. Even the pigman brothers involved in smuggling were roasted by Ryuji's flas.
The bandits and mountain thieves in the surrounding areas were gone, having beco military achievents for his Knight Order.
And what did Ryuji do?
He did so very simple things.
Appointed officials, then execute the corrupt and incompetent ones.
That's it.
The kingdom was still the sa kingdom, and many administrative officials were even the sa as before. But both efficiency and public satisfaction were perfect.
Alicia, who had been reduced to Ryuji's bitch, watched all this in utter disbelief and began to question her existence. Then, spent her nights being fucked into further disbelief by Ryuji and question her existence even more.
Because everything she saw completely contradicted the education she had received.
Ryuji's actions could absolutely be described as tyrannical and treacherous. Yet, such behavior instantly swept away the decline of the First Fortress. In fact, the military's numbers tripled in just a few days, with noticeably increased combat effectiveness. Many renowned rcenaries even joined Ryuji's army, causing its power to skyrocket.
What seed natural to Ryuji appeared utterly unbelievable to Alicia.
Ryuji knew it wasn't due to his brilliant governance. It was simply because he had titles and positions to award those who could achieve rits, so these people weren't interested in corruption or anything like that yet. But honestly, he had no intention of progressing further; being a despotic feudal king was just fine.
It ant he could freely sleep with the wives and daughters of the defeated, along with plenty of other beauties.
"How is the military training progressing?"
Ryuji casually tossed aside a docunt from the kingdom, because it contained accusations from that so-called reincarnation of goddess.
And the logic was the sa as Alicia's earlier accusations, blaming him for disrupting humanity's counterattack against the Dark Elf Queen Olga.
This truly made him believe the goddess was sick in the head and needed a good fucking.
"Your Majesty, a significant portion of the soldiers previously discharged due to funding issues have returned to the barracks. Many capable officers who left the army for various reasons have also returned."
The civil official furrowed his brow at this point.
"However, among them are many forr wanted criminals. Moreover, during their ti away from the army, they committed nurous offenses..."
Ryuji waved his hand.
"Except for charges of massacre, all others are pardoned, as long as they don't commit the cri again."
There were certainly many wrongly accused due to the forr nobles, and also those who simply wanted to indulge their desires. But Ryuji had no ti to distinguish between them. As long as they could charge towards the Dark Elf Queen's palace with him, it was fine.
So Ryuji asked the second question.
"What about the equipnt? Can we ensure every soldier has a set of armor?"
The civil official glanced at the logistics officer, who stepped forward and nodded.
"Not currently, but we have ordered blacksmiths across the country to prepare. In one month, all soldiers under your command will have their own armor."
Ryuji rolled his eyes.
"That's really slow."
He was genuinely annoyed, so he asked the third question.
"Is the large public bathhouse built yet?"
When the topic of the bathhouse ca up, the surrounding officials looked like they had sothing to say but hesitated.
Because Ryuji believed a Ro without a large bathhouse was unacceptable, he decided to build one in the city center. It would supply hot water every Saturday and Sunday for the entire city to bathe.
Of course, it required a small fee for firewood, but it wasn't expensive, and it was free on holidays.
And Ryuji had a special privilege at this bathhouse.
He could freely enter the won's bathhouse.
That was the reason he built a large bathhouse.
If such an absurd command can be carried out on Earth, then it's even more likely to be carried out in this world.
"This... it will be soon. But Your Majesty, although our funds are sufficient for now, the First Fortress lacks sufficient pillar industries."
The finance minister, whose na Ryuji could never rember, spoke up. He wanted to persuade Ryuji to be more frugal, as Ryuji was truly a king who would listen to advice and wouldn't be fooled.
Because he could actually execute anyone who tried to fool him and use his executioner's ability to correct mistakes.
Being able to kill was also a talent.
After Ryuji glanced at him, he spoke.
"Aren't there six other countries? We'll just take their money and won. Once I turn their reincarnated goddess into my bitch, we'll naturally have our pillar industries."
"Ah, this..."
Although he had long known his king intensely disliked nobles, hearing Ryuji so frankly voice such bandit-like declarations, the finance minister couldn't help but think of his six bewildered predecessors in the position. He wiped his forehead, confirming his head was still attached.
"Yes, you are right."
What else could he do? Ryuji used physical ans to ensure all soldiers received full pay and that ritorious service led to promotion and wealth. Opposing Ryuji ant opposing every soldier in the First Fortress. He didn't have enough heads to lose.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, dismissed. Prepare the army quickly, or I'll start executing people."
Ryuji stretched lazily, signaling all his ministers could leave. He then skillfully grabbed Alicia and, before the ministers had fully left the throne room, began fondling the princess's breasts.
Alicia blushed. Although no minister dared look, the feeling of being played with by Ryuji in front of others still excited her, and moisture visibly trickled down her lower body.
Then, naturally, Ryuji pressed her onto his cock.
