142 Episode 142 "Cutlass-Mutelan's" Boy Switch "and" Girl Switch "".txt

Please. Please make me Lady Letitia's valet. I'll do anything for you: ......

With that, Cutlass bowed to me once more, deeply.

I see. ...... If that's the case, then .......

'It's fine,'

Are you sure?

Yeah. Anyway, let's talk in the room.

I let Cutlass into the room.

I tried to get her to sit on a chair in the room - but she remained upright and immobile, saying, "I'm going to do you a favor. I can't help it, so I sit down in the chair.

'I understand that Cutlass wants to see the princess of the kingdom - the sisters' faces. Besides, one of us is going to be Leticia's valet anyway. I was going to ask if there was anyone else who wanted to do it later.

Are you sure it's safe to be a slave?

Cutlass patted the collar with concern.

'I've checked. It's okay.'

I said.

The valet of a nobleman should be someone who cannot be disobeyed. That's why it's not unusual for slaves to play that role at parties, I'm told. Of course, it's good manners to wear clothing that doesn't show off the collar, I'm told.

This time, I was thinking that Letitia's valet would be me and one of my companions. Cutlass would be a perfect fit.

She's got a decent amount of combat skills and she's got some defensive skills. She could use Fynn's strength and knowledge when the time comes. As a valet, I think she's a perfect fit.

The problem, however, is .......

...... to see if they can't find out who Cutlass is, right?

My mother and I are on the run from my father-in-law, and no one knows who he is, so I'm sure he'll be fine.

Cutlass held the chest of his pajamas and nodded.

'And who cares about a slave valet at a noblemen's party, right?

Usually.

The problem is that this isn't a normal situation right now.

'It's the talk of the town that Galungara, a retired knight, has fled with the undead in tow. Anyone from the royal family might know that Cutlass was left in Galungara's care as soon as he was born. Not that there isn't someone who would link the rumors to the lost princesses of the royal family.

...... Yes.

'And since Cutlass is of royal blood, there may be some similarities with the princess who comes to this town. The eyes, the mouth and so on. It's not a gene - that's not it, that's what blood ties are all about.

And this is something I used to think about when I was a little girl, when I was sent to live with relatives.

I was hoping that they would notice me if I passed them on the street or something like that. In the end, that didn't happen, and I got a new family after I came to the other world.

If it was that family's wish, I'd make it come true.

But I can't put that family in danger either.

''So I think it would be good if Cutlass could just be a 'boy' as much as possible.

...... Huh?

Cutlass looks up from his slumped position.

I explain.

'The retired knight Galungara took in the lost 'princess' of the royal family, right?　The one the High Speculative Army was looking for at the sanatorium was also "The Princess". Not a 'prince'. So it means that if Cutlass is perfectly pretending to be a boy, he's less likely to be noticed.

Of course, I'm going to have him in disguise.

As boyish as possible. Specifically, a crisp outfit like a butler would be good. As much as possible, I'll try to reduce the girlishness of it. And I'll follow along side.

That way, Cutlass's wishes can be fulfilled and I can watch without worrying.

''Nah, I see!

Cutlass clapped his hands.

'That's my guy!　That's right, I've been pretending to be a boy for a long time. I've been pretending to be a boy for a long time. If I dressed the way I've always done, no one would think I was a princess!　Arujidono is amazing. I love it!

...... It's the middle of the night, shhhh.

...... Yes, it was. Shhhh.

I put my finger to my lips, and Cutlass hurriedly does the same.

It's a quiet night in the port city.

We're facing each other in a room bathed in moonlight.

Cutlass is tiny and thin, wearing a thin nightgown. He squints his blue eyes and looks at us with a slightly embarrassed smile. It's hard to tell because it's ...... dark, though it looks like he's got a little reddish on his glossy cheeks. When I stare at him, Cutlass holds his mouth in a troubled manner and slumps down.

Cutlass's hair is gray. He had just cut it short for an exam when he was back home, and it hasn't grown out yet. His body doesn't have ...... much ups and downs, and he could at least pretend to be a boy if he didn't wear tight fitting clothes.

...... It's okay, right?

I'm with you, so I can follow you in case of an emergency.

Besides, I can understand why Cutlass would want to see his half-sisters. I want to give him the chance to do so, since he may never have this opportunity again.

'Well, I'll need you to wear my spare clothes later. You can ask Aine to get them sized for you. If they don't fit, I'll ask her if I can borrow some ...... old clothes somewhere.

I understand, sir.

'The rest is ...... right. I'll just ask Letitia what manners are required for a noble valet. Finally, I'll ask Iris and the others for information on the princesses, and then we can make some final adjustments.

The only thing left to do is to create a cheat skill for ...... in case of an emergency.

'I understand, Arujidono!

Cutlass stepped away from me and gave a polite bow.

'This Cutlass-Mutran, you are going to play the perfect boy. That's not a problem. I've always thought of myself as a boy, and I'm not afraid to cover my tracks at a party.

No, it's not going to be that easy. She's my girl!

Suddenly, I heard a voice.

From where - I mean, from the bed.

I can't see you, or rather, you don't have to hide to talk to me.

"If you have something to say, come on out, Reggie.

It's a pleasure to be here!

With a bang, the blanket was flung off and the human form of Leggy stood up.

...... Naturally, you're there. You usually slept next to him, you know.

I've seen many beautiful and beautiful girls and I know what I'm talking about. It's a good thing I'm a knight in shining armor. Your appearance and gestures have become much more girlish.

What?

Cutlass's eyes widened.

─ Is that so?

To me, Cutlass is usually a girl, but that's because I know that I'm a 'Cutlass is a girl', and I was wondering if the rest of you aren't so sure.

'Think carefully, knight girl. Are you not too conscious of your Lord's gaze?　Don't you notice that when the Lord is at your side, you unconsciously hold your chest?　Don't you feel your cheeks growing redder and redder every time you get closer to the Lord!

'Yes, as they say: ......'

'That gesture is truly that of a girl. How can I pretend to be a 'boy' for that!

Leggy pointed straight at Cutlass.

Cutlass is shaking like he's been struck by lightning. I don't know if he's ever noticed, or if he's that aware of my gaze, even ......

If it's ......, then maybe I should just take myself off as a valet.

That is not possible. I can't have you changing any of my plans at my convenience.

"I agree. A last-minute change of strategy is a recipe for disaster.

Then Reggie patted his plump chest with a pop.

It's not a choice. I'm going to take off my skin for the sake of my knight girl.

Do you have a better idea, sir?　Leggy-dono.

Mmm!

Reggie is standing in human form on the bed. He snorts and looks down at Cutlass.

'It's a simple matter. You just need to imitate the ideal 'boy' at your side so that you can 'boy' properly.

Seeing a boy and imitating him?

Yes. Who is your ideal boy?

We are here!

Then be with the Lord and follow his gestures. Spend a day with the Lord as 'boys' together. Then my little knight girl will learn how to be a boy!

All right, sir!

You got it.

I said.

No, I don't know, but that strategy.

I have a feeling that there's a pitfall somewhere.

"I beg of you, Yuji!

No. Since we are "boy to boy," you will call me Nagi.

'What?　But isn't it rude to call Arujidono that?

How about we call it a one-day special?　Instead, after spending a day as 'boy to boy' with the Lord, the knight girl will do whatever the Lord tells her to do. You can ask for a favor, as you will not refuse any request or command .......

Please, sir, I beg of you!

Cutlass looks at me with sullen eyes.

It's a rare chance for her to possibly meet her own half-sisters, and to do so, she needs to pretend to be a boy.

Reggie's suggestion to emulate me as training for that ...... is a rush, but if it means that she won't be aware of me being by her side, it's not so wrong.

As a matter of fact, there's no point in paying attention to me while I'm acting as Leticia's valet. Cutlass has only just met her, and she's still a newbie to being my slave. If you're with me to get used to it, I think I can understand.

'I get it. Good. Cutlass.

'Thank you!　A certain someone!

It's "Nagi-kun"!　Knight girl!

............ na, Nagi-kun: ......

Mmm!

Cutlass bows to me deeply and Reggie nods in satisfaction.

So, from now on, Cutlass will spend some time as my 'male friend'.

The Cutlass perspective

Because of Reggie's suggestion, I was to spend the day as if I were a friend of Aruji and Nagi's boy.

I thought I would start the next morning, but Leggy...

What do you think I'm going to say?

And I didn't want to give up.

So, I had to spend the night in the same room with Nagi-kun.

Nagi-kun told me that he would help me to keep my composure, but I couldn't calm down.

However, I couldn't calm down because I had to sleep in one bed with Nagi tonight.

The training had already begun. Nagi-kun said it was impossible, but I asked him to do it.

When I thought of myself as a boy, I wanted to become a knight. A knight is one who has to train hard to become a first-class knight. At least, that was the case in the knightly tales I read.

So I should be able to sleep in one bed with 'Nagi-kun' and not call out to Fynn.

So, I am going to leave you now, sir. "Nagi-kun.

...... Yeah.

I slid my body into the bed where Nagi was lying.

At that moment, my heart raced.

What was the reaction to that - body heat.

The bed was filled with Nagi's body heat. I could feel that through the thin nightclothes, and I felt as if Nagi-kun was holding me with his whole body.

But this didn't make me feel faint, or even wobbly, but it didn't make me faint.

I will endure all the trials and tribulations to see my half sister, the real princess, with my own eyes.

I wrapped myself in one blanket, "Nagi-kun," and closed my eyes.

I closed my eyes and saw that Nagi-kun and his big back were right there. Before I knew it, I had my forehead pressed against it, listening to Nagi's breathing.

...... It makes me feel warm and fuzzy, doesn't it?

What is this? It's unbelievably hot.

Irghaffa is a warm region by nature, but it's strange that it gets this hot at night.

I was sweating all over my neck, chest, stomach, and thighs, and I was clinging to Nagi-kun's back. I am worried that Nagi-kun can smell my sweat, but right now, Nagi-kun and I are temporarily no longer slaves and masters, we are like friends of men. Manly friends don't care about the smell of sweat.

However, ...... what should we do about this heat?

Nagi-kun" ...... Isn't it hot?

"...... much better ...... un ......

A sleepy response came back.

I'm the only one who is hot, so I can't take off the blanket. Nagi-kun" gets cold. It would be terrible if she woke up while she was sleeping and looked so comfortable.

Leggydon is ...... back to his sword form before you know it, and he is quietly sleeping.

What would boys do with each other in this situation?

I don't understand. I've never had any friends, male or female.

If you're looking for ......, you can't even think about it.

We have to leave it to our instincts and moods.

When you think about it, hmm ...... hmm ...... ah, there's a simple way to do it.

...... There was an easy way.

All I have to do is take off my pajamas. Right now, me and "Nagi-kun" are boy to boy. As long as we have only the upper half of our bodies bare, there is no problem. This is a great idea. I feel like the heat in my body can be quickly dissipated.

...... I'm going to untie my ...... pajamas so as not to wake up Nagi-kun.

I squeezed my shoulders and shifted the ...... pajamas off my pajamas. ...... Ugh, I felt a shiver down my back. It's also cold. It's not the same, though. This is a kind of "boy-to-boy" friendship - a warrior's quiver.

Anyway, I've succeeded in peeling off the top of my pajamas.

The fever is also ...... that?　On the contrary, it's getting hotter, isn't it?

You can't take it off any more, even ....... Even with boys, you can't take off all your underwear. If it's just the top, it's okay, but it's a boy. But we are boys, you know.

It can't be helped. I have to put up with it in this state. It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with ...... and can't seem to get any sleep.

............suh.

Nagi is sleeping very soundly.

Hearing his peaceful breathing, I feel as if I, too, am filled with contentment.

I want to be by her side and be her shield.

I'm aware of that thought once again.

...... I remember Fynn saying, 'Not so, we are to be the sheaths that embrace Arujido.' What did he mean by that?　It's a bit of a question mark for me. ......

But ...... I don't understand the difficulty.

Just having Nagi-kun by my side makes me feel fluffy.

I'm not able to reach out and stroke the black hair in front of me, so I have to shift my body position upwards - my upper body comes out of the blanket. ...... Still, I reach out and stroke my hand and stroke my partner's hair.

I'm going to be the first to say that I'm going to be the first to say that I'm going to be the last. I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm sure that's what boys are for.

I'm sure your suggestion was effective. I can feel myself interacting with a boy now. I know exactly what it's like to be a boy.

...... But I miss seeing their faces. It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to see them.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

Mmm," he says with a faint voice, "Nagi-kun" turns over in his sleep. Her body turns over and she turns her head to face me. Her black hair is under my gaze, and her forehead is at my chin. I feel the weight of Nagi-kun, and I'm happy.

It's a friendship between boys.

Nagi-kun's nose is on my collarbone, and his soft lips are on my chest. When Nagi-kun exhaled, I felt the heat on my chest, and when I pulled him closer, his lips were on my chest.

...... What's that?

Before I knew it, it was morning.

Birds are singing outside and the morning light is shining through the window.

'Good morning, Fynn,'

What?

What?

Nagi is standing beside my bed, with his back to me.

By the way, when did the morning arrive?

The nightgown is ...... yes, I am wearing it.

The obi is ...... untied. It has fallen to the floor.

You're up. "The princess who never woke up," ...... or "The Knight Girl"?

Next thing I know, Reggie, in human form, is looking into my face.

He looked very happy.

...... What has happened to you, sir?

'The 'princess who didn't wear them' gave me a reminder for you to play 'boy'.

"'Notes'?

Do you want to hear it specifically?

I'd like to hear it, sir.

"Specifically, 'the part that is not to be tampered with' - the part that would turn you into a girl if you touched it - I told the Lord and me by pointing and confirming. That little bulge of yours and the rest...

I don't want to hear it!

Nagi-kun is looking back.

I don't know why, but he was looking at the ceiling and shaking his shoulders as if he was troubled. You heard it too, Nagi-kun?　The 'no tinkering' part for me to do a boy?

It's where Fynn wakes up and I become a 'girl'. That is, it's a place where I react as a "girl" and...

Did you hear that, Aljiddo?　My weaknesses, from Fynn to ......!

Um, .......

I looked back over my shoulder, and Arujidono looked embarrassed.

"...... details.

'Huh-uh-uh ──────── n!

On this day, my fellow slaves were to be awakened by my exclamations.
