Ruby’s eyes snapped open. “Ah… so we did die.”
Unlike the other girls, who had required some time even to move, Ruby sat up only moments later. She had a bitter expression on her face that seemed to say that death was an old friend of hers. Every other member of their party had been resurrected. Ruby had been the last. This wasn’t that surprising, as she was the odd one out in the group. She wasn’t a part of the party or attached to me in any particularly meaningful way.
“Are you okay?” Miki asked, panting after having just performed the last three Resurrections on her own back-to-back without rest.
Considering she had only been resurrected herself just a short hour ago showed how strong-willed and capable she was that she was able to manage that much.
“I suppose.” Ruby signed sadly. “I’m sorry to all of you.”
“Mmm! Mmm!”
Ruby glanced down and raised an eyebrow. “Why is Deek naked and tied up like that?”
“He’s repenting,” Shao said wrapping her arms around me affectionately.
I shivered as I felt a cold breeze that had nothing to do with the wind. Repenting my ass! Shao was just being vindictive! I already apologized, so ropes and knives were completely out of the question. Miki said that since Shao was so weak to bedroom play and flirtation, that if I just pushed her down while she couldn’t move after being resurrected, that I could avoid my punishment.
However, we were in the middle of the dark forest and we still had the rest of our party to resurrect, so how could I just attack her. Plus, she couldn’t move or defend herself. What kind of guy would I be if I took advantage of such a situation? It turned out that Miki was probably right because once Shao could move, I ended up naked and in a compromising situation anyway.
“If… if you’re angry about his orders… please blame me.” Ruby demanded. “I’m the one who failed to guide you all properly. I just went along with it. I’m your mentor, so I’m the one who led everyone to death!”
“Hmph!” Shao snorted, crossing her arms, “Do you think we’d be angry over such a thing as dying? Master owns my life and my soul! He can do whatever he wants with me! Even if he beat me daily and made me clean his bathroom with my tongue, I wouldn’t say different.”
I managed to just spit the gag out. “Wh-what are you saying? What kind of man are you implying I am!”
“It’s not how Master treats me that is the problem!” Shao pretended she didn’t hear me. “It’s how Master treats other women!”
“Huh?”
“What did I do?”
“I’m talking about that!” Her finger launched out, and she pointed immediately at a certain girl.
Every eye, even the usually disinterested Carmine, ended up on Raissa.
“H-huh? Me?”
“Uh oh…” I said out loud before I could stop myself.
“I’m talking about that thing!” Her finger landed on Raissa’s stomach. “Master’s baby!”
