Become their wicked yet gentle lord.

"Okay! That's fine then!"

As if resigned to her fate, Gerberly turned her head away.

"Is that so? Then, take off your clothes now, my slave Bella~"

"Tsk!" Hearing Ryusha's sudden request, Gerberly realized that he was deliberately bullying her. If she didn't do as he said, he would send her back again.

Her expression twisted in resentment as she reached for her collar at the shoulder...

Ryuga watched with a smile, hands behind his back, admiringly saying, "That's right, just like that. Let me teach you properly the demeanor and manners a slave knight should have..."

Chapter 12: Will Not Show Weakness?

"Tsk...you bastard..."

Gerberly didn't believe Ryūka's nonsense. What pretense, what slave knights, what educational demeanor! It was clearly a battle plan Ryūka had deliberately devised to humiliate her. But she had to admit that she couldn't even fully remember the preliminary information she'd just seen, let alone guarantee she wouldn't make mistakes on the spot. Therefore, she had no choice but to let Ryūka take the lead in the mission…

Unless she backs down and withdraws voluntarily, she will have no choice but to obey Ryūka's commands and satisfy him to continue participating in this operation. The humiliation she is suffering now is not for training purposes, but simply to satisfy Ryūka's perverse desires!

This is for Your Highness...this is for Your Highness...

Gerberi bit her lower lip, glaring fiercely at Ryusha, while pulling open her collar, exposing her smooth, rounded shoulders to the damp jungle...

The sound of clothes rustling filled the air, and moments later, Gerberly was left wearing only a pair of loose lantern panties. She covered her chest with her arms, and the tightness of her forearms made her fair breasts appear even softer and fuller. Her body also bent slightly unnaturally, not wanting Ryusha to see any more.

What a beautiful sight! Liu Xia smiled as she looked at Gerberly's perfectly proportioned figure. Her rounded, beautiful muscle curves on her shoulders, and her slender abs and defined waistline, were like works of art! But her full breasts and stunningly proportioned hips and legs also exuded the charm of a mature woman.

Unfortunately, those pure white boxer shorts were still obscuring the last beautiful view.

"Are you satisfied now? What else do you want? Just tell me!"

Under Ryūka's gaze, Gerberi's face flushed red, and her body began to heat up slightly. But she remained defiant, her aggressive eyes, like a wild beast, casting a disdainful glance at him. Unfortunately, this only made her appear more alluring.

Liu Xia didn't speak, but glanced at the last piece of clothing covering her body. Anger and a "what's the use" attitude welled up in her heart, and Gerberly clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction, then bent down, covering her chest with one hand and reaching for her last bit of clothing with the other.

Bending over, lifting her legs... her two long, slender legs, full of the muscularity of a female knight, were raised alternately. As the pure white fabric slid over her rounded ankles, the last line of defense that could cover Gerberi's dignity was also removed, leaving her only able to swell and pound her chest indignantly under Liu Xia's unbridled gaze.

But when Gerberi removed everything, she suddenly noticed that Ryusha quickly stopped staring at her. It was as if his scrutiny had merely confirmed her obedience, and he showed no interest in her body whatsoever. This made Gerberi subtly annoyed, though she couldn't quite explain why she felt this unease. She even couldn't help but glance at Ryusha's genitals, trying to salvage some face from his reaction, but…

No response?!

Gerberi was momentarily lost in thought. She remembered exactly what that little rascal's assets were like—that thing…it was so…so…damn! She quickly banished the thought from her mind; just recalling it made her body heat up! It was all because of that damned witch's blood! She wasn't…not that shameless!

But no matter how much she denied it, a warm and itchy sensation still rose between her legs. Gerberly could only desperately tell herself that this was a normal reaction, and that she wasn't lewd! But this guy, he didn't react at all; he was definitely a spineless coward!

This self-comfort worked somewhat; Gerberly was slowly brainwashed, and her gaze toward Ryusha held a hint of disdain!

All of her subtle changes were observed by Ryuka.

As Ryusha circled around Gerberi, glancing at her every now and then, he teased her:

"That's hilarious~ Before you took your clothes off, you were all cozy and fussy, but now that you're completely naked, you complain that I'm not looking at you and you're angry that I'm not interested? Gerberly, you're such a bitch~"

"What?! Me!"

Startled by the realization that her inner thoughts had been seen through, Gerberly felt both ashamed and indignant. But before she could retort, a sharp pain suddenly shot through her buttocks!

Snapped!

A solid slap landed on her plump buttocks, startling a few birds in the jungle! A red handprint slowly appeared, causing Gerberly to let out a muffled groan!

"Hmm!"

Holy! Holy magic! This kid!

Gerberi stared intently at Ryusha's hand, which was gleaming with a faint white light, and said to him with a half-smile:

"Is this the attitude of a slave? If you continue like this and can't control your emotions, you might as well go back. I don't want to be held back by you."

"Tsk..."

Gerberly suppressed her anger and lowered her head in dissatisfaction, but Ryuka suddenly pressed against her from behind, and the hot breath from behind made her heart tremble!

"Stand with your legs apart, knees bent, and lower yourself a little. You stupid slave, can't you adapt to your master's height?"

The order startled Gerberly! Ryūka! Did he want to? Gerberly's pupils contracted, but having already done it, she slowly obeyed Ryūka's command, spreading her legs to shoulder width and lowering her knees slightly…

"what!"

A hot, hard sensation came from behind, and Gerberly felt a sudden pressure on her buttocks! That terrifying size! There was no doubt about it! It was...it was that thing!

But he clearly hadn't...

"Stupid woman~"

Ryusha's warm breath suddenly brushed against the back of Gerberly's neck, making her shiver. The boy's teasing yet deep voice sounded in her ear:

"What's so surprising? Don't you understand how to control your body with power and be completely at ease? I'm not like you, a hypocritical bitch. I can control my own body and desires. If you can't even do that, how can I teach you to control your emotions and acting skills?"

Ryuu chuckled. He had previously suppressed his desires with the power of order; otherwise, how could he have remained unmoved by Gerberi's alluring, witch-like body? But now that he was close enough to release his restraint, he immediately struck Gerberi's heart! Feeling Gerberi tremble, he knew this body yearned for him, yet Ryuu was in no hurry. He freely controlled the power of order, demonstrating his 'at will' control over Gerberi.

Stop, stop playing around! Gerberly felt like a battering ram was hitting her from behind, but Ryuka's waist didn't move an inch, relying entirely on her control over her body and blood! And with each back-and-forth teasing, her slightly parted legs were already…

pat!

A drop of sweet rain fell onto the grass in the jungle!

"You! What are you doing?!"

Faced with Gerberly's humiliating and indignant questioning, Ryuka grabbed her slender waist, savoring the witch's fragrance, and mercilessly humiliated her:

"Of course I'm teaching you a lesson! I already said, that defiant look on your face won't do. What kind of slave looks like that? You should look ashamed and wronged, like a timid maid who doesn't dare to look her master in the eye!"

"Tsk! I could never do that!"

Gerberi couldn't help but curse. Unlike that night when Tipalotura was present, when the princess was there, she would show all sorts of weak expressions out of shame and guilt! But now, with only her and Ryūka, facing this despicable bastard who had stolen her purity and interfered in the princess's fate, Gerberi simply couldn't appear submissive. Even while being humiliated like this, her heart was filled only with anger and resentment!

Even though she knew that this expression would definitely be a weakness for them both if they got to Cornwall, what could she do? She just couldn't control herself!

Not just her expression, now even her body... is almost out of control!

"Really?" Ryuka chuckled. "That's why I'm here to help you find that feeling~"

Chapter 13 The Witch Who Wants to Be Loved

"Hmph! What nonsense are you spouting!"

"I'm so ashamed and angry!" Gerberly cursed, her breathing erratic, her face burning. She resigned herself to her fate and said angrily to Ryusha:

"You just want to use this opportunity to get revenge on me! Whatever! No need for all this sweet talk! What excuses! I'll just put on a deadpan face! This time, I'm absolutely going to... Guh! You! What are you doing!"

"doing what?"

Ryuu chuckled mischievously, his fingers caressing her lower abdomen, teasing Gerberi's skin with a wisp of fighting spirit. As she trembled uncontrollably, he whispered in Gerberi's ear:

"I told you, I'd help you find the feeling of shame."

"Goo...who can do that! Haa~"

Seeing Gerberly's stubbornness, even though she was already aroused, she still only looked humiliated. Liu Xia's mind changed, and she said softly to her:

Actually, I quite like you~

"Like?!" Feeling Gerberly stiffen, Ryusha immediately sensed a glimmer of hope. For someone with such a wicked personality, coercion alone wouldn't be enough; she needed to change her strategy.

"Hmph... Ha! You think you can fool me with words like that?!"

After Gerberi stiffened, her voice rose even higher in shame and indignation, but Ryuka pressed on, no longer suppressing her physical reaction, and instead pressed herself even closer, speaking to Gerberi without any restraint:

"Hmm~ I'm not lying to you, I just like your body, and I like seeing your disgusted look on your face when I bully you~"

"Hmph! I knew it! You're the kind of person who can't say anything nice! Why would His Highness take a liking to someone like you!"

"But that just means Miss Gerberly is adorable, right? She has a great figure, a beautiful and heroic face, and a powerful female knight is bound to inspire a strong desire to conquer. I'm a normal man, and you're a charming woman, so it's only natural, isn't it?"

"Gulp...uttering nonsense..."

Ryuka slowly stroked Gerberi's abs. Although Gerberi was still cursing, her voice had unexpectedly softened. Ryuka noticed this and was secretly pleased. Sure enough, this grumpy woman was always cold and unsociable, even among the witch sisters. It was no surprise that even Nanalia was somewhat afraid of her.

The more force you apply to a woman who is like a hedgehog, the more resistance she will encounter.

"You know perfectly well that I wasn't talking nonsense, right? Although you're not a seductive witch, Miss Gerberly's charm is still very attractive~ Even though you were covered in heavy armor before, I'm afraid quite a few male royal knights were still fond of you, weren't they? Recently, you've changed into the new type of magical light armor, and the gazes directed at Miss Gerberly have become even more frequent~"

Hearing Ryusha's words, Gerberi gritted her teeth in shame and indignation, and began to defend her subordinates:

"Nonsense! They didn't! Don't portray the soldiers of the capital as you!"

"Your observation skills can't possibly miss it, right? Why deny it? Why not just honestly admit that you're very charming?"

Charm, allure?! Gerberly turned her head to the side. That's something every witch possesses. Although she was a combat-type mutant witch and didn't have the extreme allure of Her Highness and her sisters, she was undeniably beautiful as a woman.

However, she always appeared extremely fierce, and given her status as the princess's personal bodyguard, no one dared to approach her, much less hear such sweet talk...

He's lying to himself! He's toying with himself! There's no need to pay attention to what that wicked brat says! Gerberly kept telling herself this, yet a strange feeling she'd never experienced before welled up inside her!

It felt like my heart was being squeezed, a feeling of discomfort and embarrassment, so embarrassing that it made me want to get angry!

Compared to the prince beside her, she was utterly devoid of beauty!

"Hmph! Is that all you wanted to say? I told you, do whatever you want, and once you're satisfied, take me to Cornwall. Now put away your frivolous thoughts!"

"Haha~ Of course I'll do it~"

*Gulp!* Ryuka's blunt remark made the usually defiant Gerberly swallow hard. Although she had mentally prepared herself, she still felt disgusted; what was even more disgusting was that her witch body was actually anticipating it.

"However, I want to tell you my true feelings first."

With a wicked grin, Liu Xia traced his fingers down her navel, caressing the soft flower bush amidst Gerberi's trembling. He precisely located the delicate red nipple and slowly began to draw circles around it!

"Gurgle!"

Her body felt like it had been struck by lightning! Unlike the raging storm of the previous night, this time Ryuka's movements were gentle and considerate, almost as if they were full of love! Gerberi bit her lip, cursing inwardly that this guy was still as wicked as ever!

But... she seemed to feel a familiar sensation, a familiar finger technique from over a decade ago, precisely striking every spot that made her tremble.

"H-How could this be... You bastard! If you're going to do it, just do it properly! No... Don't play with me! Ha~"

Hearing Gerberi's voice distorted rapidly, Ryusha immediately knew that it was working! The technique he used was the finger technique that Gerberi had developed on her own in her memories! Although it was just a false memory, it was deeply engraved in her mind.

And the gentle, ambiguous tone I used from the very beginning was exactly the same tone I used when telling her stories!

The scenes repeated themselves, catching Gerberly completely off guard. Although she couldn't remember the details, she felt a sense of familiarity, and her slightly parted legs began to tremble as Ryusha's fingertips touched her...

"So cute~ Gerberly~"

"You're not a seductive witch, but you still attract everyone's attention, which shows your own charm~"

"I've been holding back for a long time, but I've been suppressing myself with the power of order."

"Although I wanted to tease you a lot and see you cry, I wouldn't have done it if you weren't so cute~"

"Bad temper? No problem~ That's part of being cute~ A cute girl like Gerberli~ can do anything~"

Cute, cute, cute, cute… One compliment after another flooded Gerberly’s mind, and Ryuka’s sticky, soft whispers burrowed into her brain through her ear canal. Although Gerberly knew that these were all just sweet words of deception from Ryuka, her body couldn’t stop trembling, as if some switch had been flipped in her heart.

"Ugh...don't...don't say that...don't...don't touch me!"

She began to dodge Ryuga's fingers, but was immediately stopped by the boy.

"If you avoid it, I won't take you to Cornwall!"

"Goo!"

"Jerberly~ Don't be a bad child~ Be good... That's right, be a good child~"

Obedient, good girl… Damn it! What's wrong with my brain! Why has it become as weak as my body! Gerberi bit her lower lip, not understanding why her consciousness had become so sticky. Although she tried to tell herself how repulsive Ryukyu's actions were, deep down, it seemed as if those words were calling out! It was something she had been desperately seeking in the endless darkness before she met the guiding light of her life—Princess Tipalotura!

care……

Even if it's fake, I still want to feel a little bit of care...

The beautiful body in her arms was trembling slightly. At this moment, Gerberi could not see herself behind her. Her eyes had already activated the power given to her by the witch Bell! Perhaps because she had been thoroughly satisfied by herself not long ago, Gerberi's desires and fantasies had become less intense. So this time, even without Tipalotura's resonance, through these eyes, Ryusha still saw that familiar, slender figure again among her many wicked fantasies.

Chained in a dark, sunless dungeon, treated like a wild beast, the girl sobbed through countless cold nights, longing for a warm embrace...

Witches may not love others, but that doesn't mean they don't crave love. There are witches like Kania and Esther, who, even after losing their mothers, grew up in ordinary families and received care from their loved ones. And then there are witches like Gerberi, who grew up in far more difficult circumstances.

Before they awakened their abilities, they were just ordinary little girls.

How wicked I am! Using such methods to bully a woman! Liu Xia laughed self-deprecatingly, while her other hand reached up to Gerberly's lips, gently protecting her bitten lower lip.

"Don't bite! It'll hurt, won't it? Such beautiful lips, it would be such a shame to get them bleeding!"

How could she possibly bite through it! She was a Heavenly Rank Witch, a Witch Knight whose witch power was transformed into physical abilities! Gerberly couldn't resist the urge to bite Ryuka's finger off, but when her lips touched it, she found herself too weak and unable to muster any strength…

"Ugh...why...damn it...you bastard..."

The female knight was still cursing, but her weak voice was tinged with sobs, as if she was venting her grievances and sadness, which was both heartbreaking and exhilarating!
