The next morning—
"Heh heh heh. I wonder what kind of face that next village mayor is making right now? Hehehe… I'm looking forward to this."
Rigel headed toward the underground cell where the beautiful boy was being held.
Had the defiant boy's spirit been properly broken after being thoroughly abandoned overnight?
"If it were a woman, I would've just raped her and taught her her place… Well, for a guy, this much is fine."
Muttering to himself, Rigel descended the dimly lit stairs and arrived at the basent.
"Yo. Good morning~"
"..."
The beautiful boy silently looked at Rigel. However, the vitality that had been in his eyes the day before was gone, replaced by hollow, vacant pupils.
"Heh heh… What's wrong? You look pretty lifeless."
"..."
"Well, I'll give you credit for not drowning. Good job."
Rigel grinned. But the beautiful boy said nothing, simply staring back with eyes like those of a dead fish.
"Hey, hey. Ignoring ? You've got a face like a girl, yet you're so lacking in charm."
Rigel clicked his tongue. Only then did the beautiful boy finally open his mouth.
"…Help… …"
"Huh?"
"Please… help …"
The beautiful boy begged in a voice so faint it seed it might disappear. Any trace of dignity as the next town mayor or a C-rank adventurer was completely gone. All that remained was a pitiful, miserable figure.
"Oh? You've beco quite obedient. I suppose I can help you."
"Eh…?"
The beautiful boy looked slightly confused by Rigel's unexpectedly quick agreent. But for Rigel, this response was only natural. He was a scumbag whose hobby was rape and who was desensitized to the pain of others. At the sa ti, he didn't particularly derive pleasure from tornting others for its own sake. He had only carried out the appropriate torture to keep the promise he had once made: "I won't kill you." Once the goal was achieved, there was no need to continue needlessly.
"Don't oppose our occupying army anymore. And as the next town mayor, obey all our instructions. If you swear to that, I'll let you out."
"Yes. I'll obey. So… please…"
The beautiful boy answered imdiately. There was no longer any light in his eyes. The only thing important to him now was to escape this painful situation as quickly as possible. That was all.
"Alright. Then let's get you out of there quickly."
Rigel used earth magic to slowly lift the beautiful boy up from inside the room. He rescued him from the water and tossed him out into the hallway.
"Here you go."
"Thank you… very much…"
The beautiful boy weakly expressed his gratitude. However, he was so exhausted that he couldn't even stand up.
"Heh heh… You understand your position now, right? But this isn't the end. From now on, you'll be working for and the occupying army every single day."
"Yes. I'll do anything. So… please… forgive …"
Tears welled up in the beautiful boy's eyes as he looked up at Rigel and pleaded. He had probably taken off his clothes to endure the water torture. He was now completely naked. His body, having lost all warmth and thoroughly weakened, was the very picture of misery.
However, at the sa ti—
(Mm!? My Magnum is…!)
Rigel looked down at his own crotch and noticed the abnormality. It was swollen so much that the bulge was visible even through his pants.
(This is ridiculous…! getting hard for another man…! …But this…!)
Though confused by a sensation he had never felt before, Rigel found himself aroused by how strangely seductive the frightened beautiful boy looked. He shouldn't have had any interest in n, yet…
Strange things really do happen.
"Tch! This is all because you look so damn feminine! You've twisted my tastes! Maybe I should just execute you after all!!"
"Hii!? N-no, anything but that…! Besides, I'm…!!"
The beautiful boy let out a small scream. He seed terrified by Rigel's angry shout. He tried to say sothing more, but fear had stolen his voice. He was shaking violently.
"If I end up with a taste for n, I won't be able to continue my noble bloodline…! That's it! I'll do this!!"
Grab!
Rigel seized both of the beautiful boy's ankles with his hands. Then—
"Show your dick! If I see your filthy cock, my Magnum might go soft!"
"Eh!? Th-that's…!"
The beautiful boy tried to resist, but he had no strength left, so his struggles were in vain.
"Heh heh… Be a good boy! Otherwise I'll put you back in the water torture!!"
"Hii!"
When Rigel shouted, the beautiful boy flinched and imdiately stopped moving.
"Hehehe… That's it. You should've been like this from the start."
While holding the beautiful boy down, Rigel spread his legs apart to the left and right. Then—
"Hahaha! I can see what's between your legs! I can see it… Huh? Wait, this is…"
Rigel was rendered speechless.
Because there was no male mber between the beautiful boy's legs. Instead, what was there was…
"A slit… and a clitoris… That ans… you're…!"
"…"
"You were a girl!?"
"Uuu… You saw it… It's so embarrassing…"
The beautiful boy—no, the beautiful girl—blushed bright red and hung her head.
---
Rigel had beco unintentionally erect after seeing the androgynous beautiful boy. He couldn't believe he had gotten aroused by another man. That was why he decided to strip the boy completely naked and check what was between his legs. He thought that would calm him down.
However, his expectations were completely overturned.
"You were a girl!?"
"Uuu… It's so embarrassing… Don't stare like that…"
The beautiful boy—no, the beautiful girl—blushed deeply and squird. With Rigel pinning both of her ankles, she couldn't close her legs. That ant every part of her secret was completely exposed. The fact that she was female was obvious at a glance from the lack of a penis and the presence of a slit.
"No way!? With such a cute face, you're actually a girl!!??"
"C-cute!? I-I'm…?"
"—Ah, no, of course. You're cute, so it makes sense you're a girl. Even I lost my composure there."
Rigel scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed. But he quickly returned to his sadistic expression.
"What's your na?"
"…My na?"
"Yeah. Why do you want to know?"
"Just out of curiosity. I'm not interested in a guy's na, but if it's a girl, that's different. I figured I should at least learn the na of the virgin I'm about to deflower. Whether I rember it after I fuck you will depend on how good your hole feels, though."
"…"
"You won't get anywhere staying silent. Or do you still plan to defy ? Looks like you want to experience the water torture again."
"Hii…! I-I'll tell you… So… please… don't…"
"Then hurry up and say it."
"…A-Ariel…"
The beautiful girl answered in a tiny voice. Her face was clearly filled with humiliation.
"Hoh? Ariel, huh. That's quite an unusual na."
"It's not! It's Ariel!!"
"Hah!? Who the hell do you think you're talking to like that!!? You wanna be killed!?"
Rigel glared nacingly. The beautiful girl hurriedly corrected herself.
"I'm sorry… My na is Ariel…"
"Good girl. Well said."
Rigel smiled with satisfaction. It seed the power dynamic between them had been completely established.
Ariel.
It was an androgynous na. In Japanese terms, it gave off a similar impression to nas like "Kaoru" or "Akira."
"So? Why were you pretending to be a boy? You even went so far as to wrap your chest with a sarashi."
"T-that's…"
"Answer ."
Rigel glared at her. Ariel resigned herself and began to speak.
"…I have a younger sister. But I have no older or younger brothers."
"Hmm. And?"
"In Itsutsu, the position of town mayor is hereditary. However, only males are allowed to inherit it."
"Well, that's not exactly rare."
Rigel nodded. In this world, magic and fighting spirit existed, so there were certainly strong won. The First Princess of the Valenstein Kingdom, Natasha, and the strongest warrior Lu Kaine were proven examples. But those were exceptions.
"When my parents learned that their firstborn child was a girl, they were apparently very disappointed. So, in preparation for the possibility that no sons would be born afterward, they decided to raise as a boy…"
"I see. Well, being town mayor is a pretty sweet position. Once you've tasted the benefits of a long-standing hereditary system, you wouldn't want to hand it over to soone else."
"I followed my parents' wishes and decided to live as a man. Fortunately, my appearance is androgynous. By wrapping my chest with a sarashi, I could hide it."
"Hmph. So you thought you could live as a man like that."
"It had actually been going well so far. But…"
"But what?"
"…Everything went wrong after you arrived. I had finally been living as a man, and yet sothing like this happened…"
"Hey now. Do you even understand your current position? That's quite the tone you're taking."
"Eh!? Ah…!?"
Ariel seed to realize her slip of the tongue. Her face turned deathly pale, and she looked like she was about to cry.
"You've been pretty defiant this whole ti. Looks like the torture wasn't enough."
"N-no, please… I beg you…"
"Haha. Too late for that."
Rigel snapped his fingers. Then—
Rumble…!
Clang!!
Using his earth magic, soil was generated from nothing and wrapped around Ariel's limbs.
"Wha—!?"
Ariel cried out in shock. But Rigel simply smirked and said nothing.
"W-what are you going to do to — ugh!? The earth is hardening…"
"Hahaha! I've turned your arms and legs into solid rock! Now you can't run!!"
"Wha—!?"
"I'm a generous man. Now that I know you're a girl, I can spare you the water torture."
"R-really…!?"
A glimr of hope appeared on Ariel's face. However—
"—That said, I've co up with a replacent torture. I'll test it out on you."
"N-no way…!?"
Hearing Rigel's words, Ariel was plunged into the depths of despair. But there was no way Rigel was going to let her go.
"Well, relax. Even though I called it torture, it won't involve any pain. In fact, it'll feel good."
"F-feel good…!?"
"Yeah. —Here, take a look at this."
"W-what is that…?"
What Rigel pulled out from his pocket was a spherical object about several centiters in diater.
