Chapter 49: A Commoner... Absolutely Not. Maybe Even Our Angelica...!
Chapter 49: A Commoner... Absolutely Not. Maybe Even Our Angelica...!
"The Headmaster has summoned you, Untouchable Commoner."
I had just sent Angelica off and was planning to do some cleaning for the first time in a while, but apparently, Nekane was calling for me.
To think that silver-haired, expressionless maid would come looking for me...
"How did you know I was here?"
"I have my ways. It is none of your concern. More importantly, the Headmaster has summoned you, so follow me immediately."
The maid spoke curtly and took the lead.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and follow."
"Yeah, yeah. I'm coming."
It wouldn't hurt to listen to what Nekane had to say. Besides, I'd been wanting to see her anyway.
I followed behind the maid toward the Headmaster’s office.
By the way, this maid has a very firm ass. It’s a treat to watch from behind. If I just lower my head a little, I feel like I might catch a glimpse of her panties...
"Ha...!"
"Why'd you stop all of a sudden?"
"You take the lead from here. The destination is that building over there."
The maid pointed to the building ahead. It was the same one where Nekane and I first met.
"Why? Can't I just keep following you like this?"
"I felt a certain... filthy gaze, and I no longer wish to walk in front of you."
This maid has quite the sharp tongue.
"What a shame."
I stepped ahead of her and started walking.
But did she really move to the back because my gaze bothered her?
I pulled out a hand mirror I’d picked up off the ground earlier and checked behind me.
The maid behind my back was...
"Haa... Haa..."
She was sticking close to my rear, her eyes scanning my back up and down.
"So this... is a man's body..."
She’s totally checking me out! Right out in the open!
That expressionless face had melted away as if it were never there, and she was busy smacking her lips while staring at my back, which was as broad as the Pacific.
Should I give her a little service?
"Hup!"
I flexed my back muscles and struck a pose! My muscles rippled with life!
"Ah..."
Looking at her expression, she was covering her mouth with her hand, but her eyes were darting around frantically. Women really do try their best to observe a good male body whenever they can.
"Hurry up and move."
"A-Ah, yes, of course."
Showtime's over! If you want to watch next time, you'll have to pay a fee, Maid.
The fee is your pussy.

"It is here."
"This isn't the Headmaster's office."
[ Reception Room ]
...is what the sign said.
"Yes. She is currently meeting with a guest."
"A guest? Then should I wait here?"
"No. You may enter now."
The maid knocked, spoke briefly, and then swung the door wide open.
"Please, go in."
As soon as I entered the reception room, I saw Nekane.
"It has been a while, you rascal."
"Nekane-chan!"
Man! Seeing her after a while, she looks radiant. Even if it’s only been a few days.
"...How is it? Is academy life manageable for you?"
"Thanks to you. I'm having a blast."
I spotted an empty seat on the sofa and sat right down.
"Oh, there's coffee too. Can I have some?"
"Wait. That is..."
Nekane hesitated, but I didn't care. So what? I wanted a drink.
Gulp. Gulp.
"Phew."
It tastes disgustingly high-class. Which is to say, it tastes bad.
"As expected... just like the rumors say, you are incredibly frivolous and utterly lacking in manners. A true commoner."
"Huh?"
Looking across from me, I saw a noblewoman sitting there.
You know the type—expensive purple dress, a wide-brimmed hat, and those gloves that go up to the elbows. She looked to be in her mid-thirties. Her lipstick was quite bold.
Come to think of it, I think there was a lipstick mark on my teacup.
"Is this yours by any chance?"
"It is, you vulgar commoner. How dare you defile the cup I was drinking from."
"Ah~ My bad, my bad. I saw it sitting there and thought it was mine."
No wonder I suddenly felt horny while drinking the tea...!
It was a noblewoman's...! I hadn't seen anyone I could truly call a noblewoman since Nekane. I finally met one!
Actually, it’s hard to call Nekane a 'noblewoman' in that sense... her body is just too small.
As I sat there, it felt like the noblewoman's scent was wafting over to me.
Throb, throb...
Ah... I feel like I’m going to get a full-on erection just from the smell of her perfume.
Shifting.
I spread my legs a bit because it was getting uncomfortable. Even if I get cursed at for manspreading, I can't help it. Anyone would realize it's impossible to keep your legs closed when a 6.9cm diameter main cannon suddenly gets hard in the middle.
"Hmph. Look at that posture... I wondered just what kind of person this commoner was, but to think you are someone this frivolous and ignorant of etiquette."
"I'm a bit uneducated, so you'll have to understand."
I finished the rest of the tea.
Glancing to the side, I saw Nekane sitting in the seat of honor, watching the scene as if it were entertaining.
"You, introduce yourself. This is Countess Pedeia. Lady Bern."
Nekane introduced the noblewoman to me.
Bern Pedeia? That surname sounds familiar...
"Even if you tell him, would a commoner like him even know? Professor."
"True. I don't really know."
I answered for her.
"As expected... There is no need for you to know more about me, commoner. However, even a commoner like you should know well what this sword and the crest upon it represent."
"A sword?"
Countess Bern pointed to a sword resting on the table.
Now that I think about it, why is there a sword in the middle of a desk? And a pretty big one at that. It’s almost as tall as I am.
"Well... the sword looks cool, I guess."
"You really know nothing, commoner. Do you not even recognize this crest?"
"I think I've seen it somewhere."
Where did I see that crest...? Ah.
I remember now. It was the crest I saw in the Imperial Palace when I first fucked Princess Serna. It was drawn on the walls and such.
If it’s a crest from the Imperial Palace, then this must be...
"It seems you've finally realized. This sword is a family heirloom bestowed upon us by the Imperial Family. The Holy Sword 'Marcus.' It possesses such immense power that most knights wouldn't even dare to lift it..."
"Whoa~ So this is the sword the Emperor gave you. It's pretty cool."
I picked up the sword to check its length. It almost touched the ceiling. It’s got a nice, heavy feel to it.
"Where'd you get something like this?"
I turned back to the Countess, but her expression was strange.
"Y-You... you're holding that...!"
Her eyes were trembling as if she were witnessing something utterly impossible.
"Just how... are you holding that...?"
*
Countess Bern Pedeia was very angry.
She had sent her daughter, Angelica, to the girls' academy so that she could carry on the lineage of the Imperial Female Knight Order.
But according to sudden rumors, a 'commoner' had appeared at the academy.
What kind of existence was a commoner?
A frivolous, filthy, and ill-mannered being—a human who lived solely for their instincts and lacked all restraint. No, a black-haired untouchable commoner was no different from a beast, less than human.
That such a dangerous individual was roaming freely within the academy was unacceptable.
Angelica might be able to fend off a commoner easily enough. But what about the other young ladies, who were no different from flowers in a greenhouse?
While other nobles seemed inclined to trust Headmaster Nekane's authority for the time being, Countess Bern Pedeia—the sword that protected the Empire, the Imperial Family, and the nobility—could not let this situation slide.
'A commoner...! I won't let this stand.'
She moved urgently, so quickly that she didn't even have time to contact Nekane in advance.
The girls' academy she visited after so long was exactly as it had been in the past. Like all nobles, the Countess was an alumna of this academy. Even back then, she was skilled enough to serve as the commander of the knight order.
Hailing from the prestigious Pedeia family of knights that everyone envied, she had been part of the female knight order. She had graduated from the academy without a single blemish and became a knight of the Empire.
She had gained a husband as a live-in son-in-law and given birth to her eldest daughter, Angelica, to carry on the family line. To everyone else, her life was the very definition of a perfect, upright female knight.
However.
In truth, there was a single blemish in her life.
'A commoner... absolutely not. Maybe even our Angelica...!'
Bern’s legs trembled slightly as she headed toward the academy.
*
"If you see the commoner for yourself, you might change your mind."
"Even if I see him myself, my mind will not change."
Professor Nekane was as stubborn as ever. Bern didn't know what she was thinking. Furthermore, did her words mean she was going to bring the commoner before her right now?
Nekane immediately ordered a maid to bring the commoner.
'The commoner... here?'
Bern’s heart began to race. It was the first time in nearly twenty years that she would see a commoner in person.
'No, I have to think differently.'
That was in the past. It had nothing to do with the commoner of today.
'That man is dead.'
But there was always a 'what if.' Bern kept glancing at the sword she had placed on the table.
The Holy Sword Marcus. As long as she had that, a mere commoner was nothing. She just had to overcome her fear and act calmly. That was the mindset of a knight.
And the commoner who entered was...
"Nekane-chan!"
He was a human even more frivolous and rude than she had imagined.
'Those... those muscles on his body...!'
And at the same time, he was a terrifying human.
Tall. A monstrous build. Black hair. Muscles all over his body. A look full of confidence. A man who did whatever he pleased.
'It can't be like twenty years ago...!'
Bern’s thighs began to tremble more and more.
