Day Two
When I opened my eyes, Selena was already awake, nestled against me and looking up.
"Did you sleep well, Master?"
"Yeah."
As I answered her morning greeting, I felt my cock — already asserting its morning health — still buried inside her.
Ah... I want to do it.
Is this why people have morning sex? Honestly, if you wake up the day after sex with your partner right there and a morning erection going, morning sex seems pretty natural.
But Selena didn't seem to share that opinion.
"Then... um... can you pull out now?"
Watching her glance at me carefully, speaking so cautiously, only made my desire grow stronger.
Unaware that her behavior was having the opposite effect, Selena looked at me with an anxious expression when I didn't answer.
Ah... I did say she could do as she pleased... is this the moment?
"Maaaster... it hurts... okay...?"
What a shame.
Looking at Selena's face, tears welling in her eyes, I felt too sorry to force morning sex.
I released the arm wrapped around her, and Selena slowly moved her body to undo our connection.
Her pussy clung to my cock as if wanting another taste, but it couldn't stop the separation.
Schlorp—
With a reluctant wet sound, her pussy finally released my cock.
My cock, pulled free, was sticky with semen and her juices.
"Haa... haa..."
Watching Selena moan from the pain, a sadistic urge quietly raised its head — but I was a fine master who kept his word, so I held back.
No, wait...
Argh!
When Selena got up from pressing down on one of my arms, the blood circulation that had been blocked by her weight suddenly rushed free, and a tingling pain like electricity shot through my arm.
"Master...?"
Selena noticed something was off and called out to me. But to preserve my dignity as master, I managed my expression and spoke.
"C'mon, let's go wash up."
"Are you... okay...?"
"Wh-what?"
"..."
Selena got up looking unconvinced. I, having preserved my dignity as master, also rose while enduring the pain.
Electrifying.
"Hnn!"
As I was wondering when my arm would recover, a moan from Selena reached my ears.
"What's wrong?"
"N-nothing, Master... ugh!"
Saying she was fine in response to my question, Selena slowly started walking — then moaned again, curling up and sinking to the ground.
"Selena?!"
Startled, I rushed over and supported her.
"What's wrong?!"
"I-it's... a little sore down there..."
Hearing that, I could see she was clutching her lower abdomen with her hand.
"Let me take a look."
"N-no, Master! I'm fine! I'm fine, really!"
Selena flinched at my words and curled up even tighter.
Well, it's not like looking would tell me anything anyway.
"D-don't worry, Master... I think it's just because it was my first time..."
Ah! Come to think of it, when we uncoupled earlier, her pussy had looked a bit swollen... so that was...
"I-it'll be fine in a little while... so let's go wash up, Master."
I helped Selena up and led her to the stream where a waterwheel was turning.
The water level didn't look very deep, and it was clear enough for washing.
I sat Selena by the water's edge and dipped my hand in to check the temperature. It felt a bit cool, but not as cold as a bathhouse cold plunge.
Having checked the water, I helped Selena into the stream again. The coolness starting from my toes stopped just below my knees.
"I... think I'm okay now, Master..."
Saying that, Selena quietly lowered the arm she'd been leaning on me with and submerged herself in the water.
"Aaaah..."
Whether the cold water was easing the pain below, Selena's expression slowly brightened.
I sat down beside her. The water didn't even reach my navel. But it was enough for washing.
Splash splash.
This part's important, so scrub thoroughly. Very thoroughly.
After vigorously scrubbing my submerged crotch clean and rinsing the traces of sweat from my body with cold water, I turned my head to look at Selena beside me.
Selena still hadn't washed herself — she was just enjoying the coolness of the water.
Hmm... I'm already done washing...
Leaving first felt awkward. Just sitting and waiting would be boring, and I couldn't nag someone still working through the pain to hurry up and wash.
Hmm... I'll just admire pretty Selena...
Selena under the sunlight looked different from how she'd looked under the moonlight. But the important thing was that she was beautiful.
Staring blankly at her, I thought back on everything that had happened since arriving in this world yesterday. Nearly dying after getting on the wrong side of the village chief. Doing a Slave Summon only to get a death row inmate. Registering that death row inmate as a slave and even having my first experience. One hell of a dynamic day.
Come to think of it, Selena seemed familiar with the slavery system... but yesterday the village chief said slavery had been abolished on the Kalla Continent a long time ago, didn't he?
"This is nice..."
While I was pondering the discrepancy between what the chief had said and Selena's words, her voice reached my ears. But lost in thought, I didn't catch her words clearly and asked again.
"Huh?"
"I said it's nice. Being in the water like this with Master."
"Yeah. Cool and nice."
"Hehe."
Selena smiled faintly at my answer, then splashed over and leaned against me.
I felt a pleasant weight pressing against my chest and the soft skin of her shoulder against mine.
And something of mine, reacting to the warmth of her skin — slightly cooled by the cold water but still warm — was trying to poke up above the water's surface.
But whether Selena knew this or not, she showed no intention of pulling away, and instead gently stroked down my body, applying even greater stimulation.
Nearing my limit, I poured water over Selena's body leaning against me and opened my mouth, trying to redirect my spiraling attention elsewhere.
"Selena. Hasn't slavery been abolished on the Kalla Continent?"
"Hmm? What are you talking about? Kalla Continent?"
"No. I heard that slavery was abolished here on the Kalla Continent."
"If there's no slavery, how did Master smuggle me out? And what's this about the Kalla Continent?"
The question I'd asked both to redirect my attention and to check the difference between Selena's and the chief's words brought confusion to both of us.
"Master, you're being weird... And I've been wanting to ask since yesterday. How did you smuggle me out? Even if you had influence with the imperial family or the executioners, getting me out of that situation would have been difficult. The timing doesn't match either."
I just summoned her and it worked...
Not knowing the mechanism of Slave Summon, I found it hard to explain how I'd done it. But if I said I didn't know, my dignity as master would...
Fretting wouldn't produce a clever solution, though, so I decided to keep it brief.
"It's my unique skill."
"Huh? What kind of skill summons a death row inmate..."
I'd explained too briefly — Selena seemed to have taken it as my skill being one that summons death row inmates.
"No. It doesn't summon death row inmates — it summons slave candidates. Just know it roughly like that. I'll tell you later. More importantly, isn't this the Kalla Continent?"
Lacking confidence to explain in detail, I changed the subject.
"Where is the Kalla Continent? This is the Rieu Continent."
Thinking about the chief and the village, this had to be the Kalla Continent. Which meant Selena, who called this the Rieu Continent, wasn't from this continent...
"First of all. This is somewhere on the Kalla Continent. I don't know exactly either, but I heard it in the village I stopped by briefly yesterday, so it should be reliable."
"What do you mean? You don't know exactly either, Master?"
Unable to figure out where to start explaining, I eventually told her everything from the moment I got hit by the truck up to now.
"Uh... so Master was reincarnated into this world through a dimensional transfer?"
Remarkably, Selena seemed to have perfectly understood my rambling explanation.
"That's right. Exactly that."
"...Master... it's okay... I'll definitely learn healing magic and cure you..."
No... she completely misunderstood...
I thought about how to make Selena believe me, but as an FFF-rank slave merchant, I had no clever ideas.
I tried explaining whatever came to mind, but I couldn't erase the pitying look from Selena's eyes.
"What would I gain by lying to you? I'm telling the truth. Sigh... fine. The temple. Let's go to a temple and meet Kaila. Then you'll believe me."
"Would Goddess Kaila meet Master so easily... Well, fine. Just tell me where we are and I'll guide you to Goddess Kaila's temple."
At least the goddess who governed the world seemed to be the same.
"No... I told you earlier. I got here yesterday and don't know anything. And this isn't the Rieu Continent you know either..."
"Aha! Master wants to feel like he's on an adventure, right? Got it. Then let's go that way. That sounds fun in its own way. Hehe. I'll wash up quick and get ready."
"No... haah... fine, let's head to a temple for now."
Watching Selena start washing while humming cheerfully, as if excited about something, I finally gave up on explaining.
And so, only one day after acquiring a slave, I lost all dignity and was treated as a master whose mind had gone soft — but if I just went to a temple and met Kaila...
