Awoke is a small city located in the southwestern part of the kingdom. It is two days’ ride by regular carriage straight west from the royal capital.
Although it is one of the larger cities in the region, the number of brothels in this city is surprisingly small. The reason for this is probably because the popularity of the city is concentrated in one brothel.
「You’re surprised too aren’t you?」
The name of this store was Elsailles. In the waiting room behind the platform, a woman was talking to her right arm.
Sticking out its tongue was a black snake. It was coiled between her elbow and wrist, leaning its sickle toward her.
「I didn’t know there was a battle between knights in the giant hole in the south」
A woman with the perfected beauty of a mannequin lets out a small breath as she says this.
She is Elder. She is the one who has been reigning at the top of the Elsailles’ platform for many years.
That wasn’t her real name, by the way.
Her real face is hidden under a thick layer of makeup. Reminding him of an Elder Lich, Tauro named her like this in his mind.
「To think that something like that is happening, even I was surprised you know?」
She seemed to be having a conversation with the snake, but the only sound in the room was Elder’s voice.
This black snake, about fifty centimeters long, was her spirit beast. Therefore, the snake was conveying its thoughts in the form of telekinesis.
「A massive golems outbreak caused by a magic eruption. I thought that was all there was to it」
Earlier, Elder had felt an earthquake-like vibration in the direction south of Awoke.
She became suspicious and dispatched her own spirit beast to investigate the situation.
「So you’re sure it was the elven Knights who fought the imperial Knights?」
The crow snake bows its head once and opens its mouth to reveal its fangs.
Getting an answer, the corners of her mouth hang up in laughter.
(The Knights of the elves left their village? And then they show up in front of the humans? That’s really something)
Elder almost breaks her makeup and hurriedly suppresses her expression.
However, she raises her eyebrows at the next piece of information.
「What? The Elven Knight escaped after getting sniped from atop of a rocky mountain?」
When she asks about the details, it says that one or two of the Knights had been killed by attack magic.
It was an unbelievable story for Elder who knew the strength of the elven Knights.
「Is that so? You know nothing anymore than this, huh」
The crow snake shook its head from side to side apologetically. It was hiding in a hole, so he couldn’t see the rocky mountain well.
While imagining the situation, she let her thoughts wander.
(It’s probably another elf. I wonder if there’s been a disagreement between them)
If that’s the case, then it’s even better.
She has survived all this time just by the thought of not wanting to die. But now, a turning point may be coming.
(It sure gets more interesting, isn’t it?)
Her mouth hangs even higher.
This time, as if she couldn’t hold it anymore, a diagonal crack appeared on both sides of her face. The powder from her makeup falls to the floor.
She then shrugs her shoulders and takes out an expensive looking compact from her bag.
「Hm? What’s wrong?」
As she carefully applied the puff, the crow snake poked the back of Elder’s hand. Noticing this, she nodded lightly.
「A guest is coming? Okay, thank you」
The fifty centimeters long black-colored snake, dives under the sofa.
Immediately after, there was a knock on the door of the waiting room.
「You may come in」
This room was for her exclusive use, no other women came here to take a break.
The only people who come here are the store staff or her servants.
「There is something I need to report」
The man who appeared was a man in his prime with an angular chin and slightly downcast eyes wearing plain clothes.
He was the second-in-command of the Awoke Guards, but the light in his eyes indicated that he was under the influence of Elder.
「The guards will be raiding this store in a few days」
(Eh?)
“What a nonsense”, the deputy captain of the guard said in disgust while shaking his head from side to side. He doesn’t think he’s brainwashed the least bit.
Looking at him, a thin crack ran vertically between Elder’s eyebrows.
(Just how, did they find out?)
Her brainwashing techniques are strong.
With a combination of magic and skillful techniques, it is at a level that can only be countered by high-level cure abnormality status magic.
(Did someone use a D-ranked magic or potion? Who in the world would use such a valuable item?)
Top of the line product on the market that’s rarely available in Awoke. It shouldn’t be something that someone would use so easily.
For this reason, she avoided brainwashing wealthy and influential people. The class of people to whom brainwashing was applied were those with just enough money to play in a brothel.
(It can’t be helped. I can think of the cause later. I have to leave the city first)
When you sense danger, hesitation and hopeful thinking can be fatal. Knowing this well enough, she made a decision immediately.
However, she did not forget to compliment her servant.
「You’re so reliable, aren’t you?」
She put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek as a thank you. Then she strokes his crotch lightly over his clothes.
She pushes the slack-faced servant out of the room with a smile. Then she turns around as her smile disappears and she clicks her tongue sharply.
(Even though it was just starting to get interesting)
She has set her mind on disappearing.
A network of servants she has built up so far. She thought it was regrettable, but she can’t trade it with her own safety.
On the contrary, she decided to think of it as a good opportunity.
(I’ve been in this town for quite a while now. Maybe this was a perfect chance to move out)
She has a long life span. If she lived in the same place for too long, she would arouse the suspicion of the human around her.
She had to move somewhere else eventually.
(I wonder where should I go next?)
The kingdom is out of the option.
In the East, there’s the 『Saintess』 who can be considered her natural enemy.
She is a saint who can freely use a super high level cure status abnormality magic. In the presence of such a being, her brainwashing techniques will be exposed soon.
(The Empire, then?)
She had once been discovered, and had escaped to this place.
But it’s been a long time since then. It must have all cooled down a long time ago.
(If I’m going there anyway, maybe I should live near the spirit forest)
What came to her mind was a small city to the north of the imperial capital. It was close to the spirit forest.
She thought that if there was any movement on the elves side, it would be a good idea to check the situation from nearby.
(Landbarn is not a bad choice, but I feel like it’s too close from here)
The reason why the elves came to the giant hole. She has no clue why they did it, so she wants to find out more.
That’s what she thought, but as expected, this distance is dangerous. The rumors in Awoke will also reach there soon.
By the way, she avoided the imperial capital because the elves have a brothel there. They definitely exist in the capitals of major countries.
「Heave-ho!」
She stood from her seat and returned to pick up a basket in the back.
The crow snake crawled out from under the couch, expecting a reward.
「You must be hungry, right? Let me grab you something to eat」
She took out a snake and dropped it on the floor. It was about twenty centimeters long.
Seeing the black snake, it started to move to escape. But the crow snake leaps sharply and instantly bites it in the neck.
The snake stopped breathing and the crow snake began to slowly swallow it, head first.
「It must be delicious huh」
Elder narrows her eyes and stares at it with a smile. Her spirit beast is a snake eater.
After that, she left early and went back to her luxury home and started preparing to move-out.

A few days later, the guards raided Elsailles.
They had the main entrance, the employee at the entrance, and everyone else under control.
「Don’t move!」
They jump into the playroom and shout to the men and women that were in the middle of a joint task.
The men and women were torn apart like ripping up a log, and instructed them to gather in the lobby.
This is how they were all gathered, but Elder was not among them.
「Where did she live?」
The captain of the guard rushes the concierge and quickly sends his men. But she had already pulled away and disappeared.
「She ran away huh」
The number one woman in Elsailles was the most suspicious. The captain of the guard’s expression was bitter as he could not catch said woman.
At any rate, everyone present, from the employees to the customers, was investigated.
What they found out was a horrible fact.
「What the hell is this!」
It was no wonder the captain of the guard shouted. Many of the customers had fallen into abnormal states.
Moreover, the power was so strong that it required a D-ranked means of curing status abnormality.
「Lesser salamander!?」
The captain of the guard stares at the sky with a stunned expression. The only thing that comes to his mind is the matter with 『Robust』 who are praised as the best adventurers in the kingdom.
Last year, they had defeated a lesser salamander in the mines and returned to the royal capital in triumph. But after that, they suffered from burns that kept getting worse.
『The cause is a curse called 『Serious Burn』. It must have been cast by the lesser salamander』
That was the report from the Royal Magic Academy, which was in charge of the investigation.
To lift the curse, it was said that they require a D-rank or higher cure status abnormality recovery magic. Everyone at the time was horrified by the ferocity of the curse.
『We have to save our saviors!』
The country’s leading magicians responded to the call, and the merchant guild gathered up the potions.
As a result, they managed to save everyone’s lives.
(The strength this time is comparable to that time, moreover, there are more number of victims this time)
The captain of the guard could not stop his body from trembling.
「The country is in danger! Contact the royal capital immediately!」
He immediately sent a messenger to deal with the unparalleled large-scale brainwashing incident that had occurred.
***
At the time when the messenger who left Awoke was driving his golem horse with clenched teeth.
In the Knight’s hangar near the eastern gate of the royal capital, two men were standing side by side, looking up at the Old Lady.
「I wonder if you have any good ideas?」
The skinny young man raises his eyebrows at my question.
「Strengthening the Old Lady, is it?」
The one with his arms folded and a sullen expression on his face was the herbivore mechanic. I couldn’t come up with an idea on my own, so I gave up and consulted a professional.
Of course, I’m still not going to reveal the Akashic Magic, which was lent to me by the stone statue.
「It was to fight against the elven Knights right?」
The herbivore mechanic said with a sigh.
「That would be difficult. I think the only way would be to develop your strengths instead, Tauro-san」
Developing my strengths.
That means shooting attack magic from even farther away and with more power, and escaping faster than the elven Knights.
「Isn’t the problem here lies on the pilot rather than the Knight?」
This requires a great deal of magic power and the ability to manipulate magic to handle it. It was certainly not a problem that lies on the Knight’s side, but on the pilot’s side.
「There is also a way to increase efficiency by using auxiliary magic circles. But somehow that doesn’t seem to work for you, Tauro-san」
It must have reminded him of my close combat battle with the Heavy Stone Golem in the mountains. The herbivore mechanic shrugged his shoulders.
The auxiliary magic circle that had become an obstacle to the flow due to the excessive amount of magic power. That time I almost died from lack of power.
(I have a lot of magic power, but the Knight can’t hold it. I can’t really say that, can I?)
Fortunately, the herbivore mechanic believed that I’m a human being with the same amount of magic power as an elf.
『Actually, it’s even better than that』
I’m sure there would be an uproar if I said such a thing.
A chill ran down my spine as I remembered the way he had looked at me when he suspected I was an elf.
「Can you give me some time? I’ll give it some more thought」
The herbivore mechanic sees me stiffen up and says comfortingly. Here, we decided to take a break.
(Still, it’s really big when you see it indoors, huh)
Sitting on a repurposed wooden box, I look up at the Old Lady while sipping coffee from a mug.
She is about seventeen meters tall, with the appearance of a Western-style armor.
Her chest armor is open at the top, slightly revealing the pilot’s seat at the lung level.
As a B-class knight, she is rather small and slender. That’s why she’s called a Lady, but she has an overwhelming presence in the hangar.
「By the way, Tauro-san. I’m really thankful for coming to the wedding party the other day」
He called out to me and I turned my gaze from the Old lady to the herbivore mechanic.
「I was really saved. If Tauro-san hadn’t come, it will be our loss」
I was invited to his sister’s wedding party because of the balance of power among the relatives. Apparently my title of a pilot seemed to be the highest among the invited guests.
「No, no, I’m glad I could be of help」
I replied, and the herbivore mechanic added with a troubled look on his face.
「Actually my sister asked me to do something for her. She want to introduce Tauro-san to a friend」
「I will politely refuse!」
The herbivore mechanic smiled at me as I gave him an instant reply. It seems that he knew, but still asked anyway.
「You were chased around at the party after all」
I guess she must have been provoked by her friend’s marriage. I kept getting approached by the butcher girl, the grocery girl, and the liquor store girl.
The only reason for this is because I am a 『pilot』.
This was the end of the conversation as the herbivore mechanic brought up another topic.
「Have you ever wanted to work in a brothel, Tauro-san? With Doctor Slime’s skills, you’ll be sought after for part-time work」
When I asked him why he suddenly asked me about it, he told me that it was his father’s dream job.
Indeed, in this world, the status of women working in brothels is high. Even in the mid-range brothels, they are on par with actresses, idols, and broadcasters.
And if that’s the case for women prostitutes, so it must be the same for men.
「I mean, you can’t choose your partner when you’re working, can you? For me, I think it’s better to pay the woman of your choice to play with you」
To be honest, I don’t have trouble with money. And my social status is good enough.
There is no need for me to sit on the platform and aim for the top.
Nodding his head in agreement, the herbivore mechanic asked another question.
「Then, how about a tuner?」
「A tuner?」
When I asked him about the unfamiliar words, he began to explain with a proud face.
Apparently, this was also the career her father wanted to have. He must have had many opportunities to talk with his father during the event of his sister’s marriage.
「They are those who teach the women who work in a brothel. They teach them techniques and develop newcomers」
「Hou?」
「They say that if you become a first-class tuner, you can travel around the world. I’m sure that’s because you will be invited from every brothel in the world」
That sounds like a lot of fun.
「A job to create your own seasoning and having many people taste it. My father said it was a man’s dream come true」
I fell silent. I had never even imagined that such a profession existed.
「….That sounds wonderful」
「How wonderful indeed」
We nodded at each other.
It’s a different world, and you only live once. It’s good to travel and interact with women.
Besides, I’m sure I’ll reach my physical limit sooner or later. When that time comes, I might as well move from the consumer side to the supplier side.
I’m sure my experience and skills will come in handy.
(It’s not in the foreseeable future, though, with Imosuke and the others and the garden forest)
A long-lived turtle who knows a lot about things has also just joined us. It might be a good idea to consult them sometime soon
(Next time, let’s analyze sensei’s 『Guillotine』)
Enjoy and learn. Depending on the intentions of the person who goes to the brothel, it can change into a place of entertainment, or learning, and training.
I was amazed at how deep this was.
