A Tempting Offer and a Lewd Negotiation
Clafoutis received an offer from Ramnusia that she simply could not refuse.
"You looked quite lovely while eating, Senior Clafoutis."
When told to put on the Reverse Bunny suit, Clafoutis surprisingly did not act immediately. Instead, she rather audaciously attempted to negotiate with me. Her bold proposal? She was absolutely starving, so she wanted to eat first before putting on the reverse bunny suit.
Normally, I would have called off the reverse bunny suit altogether, but today was a monumental day—the day I rubbed my face against Helene's breasts for the very first time. Thus, I decided to be generous. The carrot and the stick are always crucial. If I show her that I can be reasonably lenient and sweet, and even offer a little 'service' now and then, it will be much easier to win Clafoutis's absolute obedience.
"Gulp... Now that I have had a proper meal... I, too, shall keep my promise, indeed."
Clafoutis Magica was indeed intelligent. She didn't make the foolish, idiotic choice of trying to back out of her promise just because she had already eaten while confined.
"Hehehe..."
In fact, Clafoutis properly changed into the reverse bunny suit. Though her expression was incredibly gloomy, she stripped off her uniform as ordered, removing even her bra and panties to stand completely naked.
Was it because of her different frame? The reverse bunny suit on Clafoutis felt subtly different from when Laura wore it.
"As expected, it looks much lewder on you, Senior Clafoutis."
"Have you forced someone other than myself to wear such a perverted outfit, indeed?"
"Yes. And perhaps because you have a bit more flesh on your bones than she does, it looks far more erotic on you, Senior Clafoutis."
Clafoutis gasped at my single remark, quickly covering her stomach with both hands. She looked incredibly flustered, but the sheer sensuality radiating from her body could not be hidden in the slightest.
Comparing Laura and Clafoutis, though Clafoutis would find it deeply humiliating, her body was definitely on the plumper, more voluptuous side. She had noticeably more flesh on her thighs, and while she wasn't flabby, the way her stomach and breasts jiggled was entirely different.
Was this the difference between a pure mage and a lady who excelled in both literary and martial arts? Or perhaps it was just a natural, genetic difference.
"M-More flesh on my bones... How could you say such a thing..."
"Just look at the stockings you're wearing. You can see the flesh bulging slightly over the top, can't you? And your hips are quite plump, too. Not to mention, your pussy and breasts are by no means slender, are they?"
Her body wasn't so thin that it reminded one of beef jerky. Yet, she was by no means fat either. How should I put it? It felt like if I were to hug her tightly and squeeze her all over, she would jiggle in the most erotic way.
"Damn it..."
Her face flushing crimson, Clafoutis pasted the bright red heart-shaped stickers over her nipples and pussy, letting out a deep sigh. She was so visibly embarrassed that she blatantly averted her gaze, which made her incredibly cute.
"At any rate, you've put on the reverse bunny suit exactly as I ordered, haven't you?"
Clafoutis, with the heart stickers perfectly concealing even her blue pubic hair, looked truly, deeply erotic. As expected! Clothes really do make the person.
"Haa..."
On the other hand, Clafoutis looked as though she wanted to bite her tongue and die right then and there. Oh, I know, I know. I understand all too well what it feels like to live such a hopeless life. In times like this, it's best to offer a glimmer of hope, isn't it? That way, I'll get to see her desperately obeying my every word.
"I-I have some news that might please you, Senior Clafoutis."
"...I am well aware that, in the end, it will not be anything truly beneficial to me, indeed."
Clafoutis replied, carefully shielding her private parts with both hands. As expected, when women are naked, they tend to cover their lower halves rather than their breasts.
"No, Senior. It is going to be an incredibly delightful proposal."
Clafoutis hung her head, her face devoid of any expectation. Because she was highly intelligent, she knew. She knew just how long she would have to obey my commands merely to live a semi-normal life here. She also knew that there was no hope of escaping this place.
"My lovely Senior Clafoutis, if you manage to accumulate 100 Praise Points, I will grant you a single wish."
"A wish...?"
Clafoutis's expression shifted faster than expected.
"Yes. Since it is literally a wish, I intend to grant you absolutely anything."
"H-Heh... Your intention to toy with me is painfully obvious, indeed. It is plain as day that if I were to wish to leave this place, you would have no intention of granting it."
"I do intend to grant it."
Smiling, I pulled a sheet of parchment from the bag where I had kept her clothes earlier and waved it in front of her.
"As long as it isn't an absurd wish like asking me to commit suicide, I am willing to grant any wish you desire."
"...Could that parchment possibly be a Geas, indeed?"
"Yes, it is indeed that terrifying Geas, which forces one to absolutely keep any oath made, Senior."
Clafoutis's eyes widened. She stared at me and took a step back.
"I-I would prefer we do not go so far as to use a Geas, indeed."
"But what if I don't keep my promise?"
"Do you even know what a Geas entails, indeed? If an oath is broken, the body part marked by the seal will burn with eternal agony! Do you not know that the flame can never be extinguished, and will burn until it claims your very life, indeed?"
"O-O-Of course I know."
Clafoutis shook her head.
"Given that there have even been assassinations utilizing a Geas... I do not wish to make a promise using such extreme measures, indeed."
Did she dislike the fact that she, too, might lose her life if she broke the oath? Well, either way, I could easily twist her words, claim she broke the oath, and threaten to kill her. Or perhaps her hatred for me hadn't reached the point where she wanted to risk her life? Either way, it was convenient for me since it saved me the hassle.
"Instead, you must promise to keep your word, indeed!"
"Ehehehe... Yes, if you properly accumulate 100 Praise Points, Senior Clafoutis, I will grant your wish."
In truth, accumulating these points was impossible unless I actively cooperated. Clafoutis had to consume points just by existing. In other words, I could let her stack them up to the very brink, then leave her alone to let them drain away. Of course, if I toyed with her that blatantly, she would fly into a rage, so I had no intention of doing that. These 100 points were like a gift box hanging on the wall. If you gather 100 points, you can leave! So you must absolutely obey whatever Ramnusia Yuno says!
"Then, he-hehe... let's help you earn some points right away, Senior Clafoutis."
"Ugh..."
Clafoutis's face contorted. Did she feel like a whore selling her body for money? Honestly, in the sense that she would do absolutely anything I ordered for the sake of Praise Points, she wasn't much different from one.
"Then,
