Chapter 16
Nobody saw me off .
It was a matter of course, my two loved ones haven’t gotten up from bed yet .
I whispered “I’ll be going” to the bedroom and they answered in a husky voice and unfocused eyes, “be safe”
Still, that is enough, even if Carla wasn’t speaking to my ear but between my legs, that’s fine .
Where are the women? Why are you alone?
Schwarz looked like he wanted to question me as I rode on him and took off north from Roleil .
Don’t worry, fate will lead us back someday .
I went up north from Roleil and reached the Arcland border before the day ended .
The two countries have a bad relationship that often erupt into war, but on the other hand, since it’s peacetime it’s possible to cross the border .
Since there is trade from the Federation through many countries, total border closure is disallowed during peacetime by tacit agreement .
The population of Arcland numbered 200 thousand, 100 thousand people less than Triea, but its military power surpassed Triea because of their army’s training .
The capital, named Arcland just like the Kingdom, was an ancient place that had been there since legendary times .
Later historical studies found no basis for it but the place name and country name Arcland was left behind .
The three cities surrounding the capital each maintained sturdy walls and were used during wartime as fortresses .
Perhaps due to their single-minded pursuit of military matters, the towns’ population and development were nothing to look at .
Taxes heavier than ones at Triea were levied on the farming villages, causing the lowly peasants and townsfolk to live in poverty .
That much was taught to me at Lucy School but I’ve come to understand that that’s indeed the case now that I’ve came and seen it for myself .
When I entered the town I saw very few inns and shops, I thought this was a deserted town but the number of soldiers here are far greater than at Roleil .
Most of the shopkeepers were women or elderly, asking around I found that the young men seem to have been conscripted for a long military service .
There’s really nothing worth looking at so I hurried along .
A benefit of them being ready for war is that horse fodder is readily available .
The town was desolate but the villages were in a more horrible state .
The earth doesn’t seem to be barren like Sheera village’s was but due to high tax the people were seedy, it wouldn’t seem strange if women and children had to sell themselves to stay alive .
Even in the village where I decided to stay the night, a woman came to me and said she’ll accept 30 coins for me to sleep with her .
When I asked, she said that she was married with 3 children and that her husband was pressed into military service so she was troubled over food and so she spreads her legs to travellers .
“I left the children with a neighbor until tomorrow so you don’t need to hold back”
I’d feel bad to give her coppers when she’s willing to go that far so I gave her a silver .
“Really!? You saved me . But my body isn’t really worth that much, you know?”
She got on the bed and took of her clothes . Certainly, her body doesn’t look too inviting .
Because she doesn’t eat enough she was thin, and her butt doesn’t have much meat on them .
Even more so now that I’ve tasted Carla’s voluptuous body .
But still, she seems to be determined to work hard for the silver . She brought her face to my crotch and started licking and sucking my penis .
“Though I have this seedy-looking body I’ll give it my all tonight so if you want anything just say so”
She didn’t mind and didn’t choke even when I pressed her head down, she took it deep into her throat .
“You did well, now let me have the main course”
“Yes, but still, your thing is huge . I don’t see someone so imposing so often”
It’s still way far from being at its biggest, though .
One of the reasons is that when I exposed my half-risen thing and held her close I felt bone .
Sensing that I’m not feeling it, the woman thought up a little something for variety .
“Umm, may I say my apologies to my husband before you put it in? I am being unfaithful even though it’s for the sake of staying alive . … . Darling, I’m now going to sleep with another man . I’m going to be painfully penetrated with a penis much much bigger than yours, so please forgive me . I’ll be thinking of you even with another man’s penis inside my womb”
That wasn’t a real apology . That was an act to raise my immoral lust .
As a result, I immediately became unable to hold back . I leaned over onto her, swung my hips wildly, and was able to enjoy two rounds with her .
The next morning I had her cook the ingredients I brought and ate breakfast .
She hid a portion of the ingredients, probably for her kids, so I pretended not to see and drank down the meat soup .
Still, she seemed to feel guilty and slipped under the breakfast table, giving me some oral service without saying a word .
I thought it might be good for her nutrition so I held her head down and poured plenty of my cum down her throat .
“So much came out… . You were violent and skillful too last night, I honestly forgot I had a husband”
She buttered me up while cleaning up my meat rod .
Well, I should be going soon .
“Um, there’s still some soup and bread…”
“I’m full already, you can eat the rest if you want”
She bowed . I gave her a backwards glance and left the house .
There were kids drooling from the scent drifting through the entrance . Probably hers .
They happily entered when their mother called .
Their bodies were so thin they looked all skin and bones, I couldn’t tell whether they were boys or girls .
The woman was good but the country’s atmosphere made me feel sick .
I figured that I’ve had enough of this country so I decided to quickly leave Arcland .
As soon as I left rural lands I saw a group of several hundreds of farmers walking en masse .
I thought they were bandits, but then there were some aged people and women among them .
“Give us back our sons!”
“Reduce our taxes!”
So they were demanding the conscripted workers be returned and taxes be reduced .
As they each yelled shouts, they headed as one towards the capital Arcland .
They likely wanted to demonstrate for their poverty directly to the King or the high nobles .
Understandable, seeing how poor they are . I took some distance from them so I don’t get involved .
They and I were going in the same direction but there’s no way they’re going to stand in Schwarz’s way .
Parties like these tend get violent in ways not related to their original goals the more time passes, so I better stay away from them as much as I can .
In fact, some of them were already armed with farming tools .
Just when the sluggishly advancing mass crossed over a hill, I heard a shrill trumpet sound . The peasants trembled in surprise .
What lay before them were soldiers bearing Arcland national banners .
Their flanks consisted of 100 archers and infantrymen each and their center consisted of up to 50 horse-riders .
“It’s the Iron Lancers!!”
Somebody shouted, and at the same time screams rose from the party .
Seems like the heavily armed unit is a well-known troop .
The horse-riding troop, Iron Lancers was it? commenced assault as if taking the screams as a starting signal .
The cavalrymen and horses clad in armor with 2 m long iron spears rode abreast, pointed their spears forward, and just like that, pierced into the mass of peasants .
It was a gruesome massacre .
The peasants without proper armor were skewered and trampled under the horses’ hooves .
The hundreds of peasants were whittled down in a flash, and the rest were skewered as they tried to escape .
Just a few peasants managed to scatter away but just when they took some distance from the cavalry, arrows came raining down on them .
Having moved to their satisfaction, the cavalry slowly walked, thrusting their spears at anything that moved .
What a waste, they could’ve kept the women .
“Are you one of them!”
I probably stood out, riding on a horse, so two Arcland cavalrymen called to me running .
