Chapter 457 They\'re Picky On Their Healers

Instead, what I got was…

"How did you manage to cast that spell even while you\'re distracted, Aster?"

"And you even left the goblins out of the effect as well! I heard that casters usually have a hard time designating their targets for it!"

I mean… I guess I could do it because I didn\'t need to chant so all of my focus was on choosing the targets for the [Area Regeneration] spell.

I tried to change the topic while ignoring Lisa and Delmare who were sleeping on my lap with contented smiles on their faces, "I\'m surprised we got attacked by goblins so close to the capital though… I thought the roads were supposed to be safe?"

Katsuki answered me from the side, "This part of the Kingdom is less travelled since it\'s far from most villages or any points of interest. Thus, there are fewer Mercenaries and Knights patrolling here to eliminate the monsters."

"Is that why there\'s an orc stronghold here?"

She nodded, "With no one to cull their population, they must have banded together and created a fortress."

"Hmph, I would have thought the Kingdom would send their own knights to deal with this being so close to the capital and all," Emilia scoffed, not even looking up from her documents.

"The Knights do use this place as their training grounds actually. But unfortunately they would not be able to clear this one because of the event with the demons."

Ah… So this quest was offered to the Guild for them to thin out the monster population around here instead of the knights this time. If it wasn\'t for the demons, the knights would have come here themselves for training…

That seemed to make Chamie a little worried, "Would… Would we be alright though? Aren\'t Orcs really strong?"

Harge also nodded, "What if there are a lot of them and we get overrun? I heard they… Rape their victims…"

Odeta laughed, "Of course! With sister Aster here, we can beat anything!"

… I\'m not invincible, Odeta… Though I suppose she\'s referring to the fact that we most likely won\'t be outnumbered if I brought out my summons so that\'s at least one problem we won\'t be having.

And obviously since these two seniors of mine did not know that, they took that at face value and stared at me with sparkling eyes.

Stop… Please… Whatever you think I can do, I most probably can\'t do it… So there\'s no need to look at me with those painful gazes of yours…

"Does this mean Aster can defeat several Orcs by herself?"

"Wahahaha! Of course she can!"

… Ok, that\'s something I can do.

"Oh! I heard that Aster managed to clear the school\'s Dungeon the fastest! Is that true?!"

"Of course it is!"

Ugh… I mean… I had help for it but that is indeed true…

"Could Aster defeat the entire Orc stronghold by herself?!"

"Wahahaha! Easily!"

I guess… If I were to call out all of my summons and then have time to scout out the perimeter to find the best location to shoot my magic at them… That is indeed possible…

"Could… Could Aster defeat a Wyvern?"

"Ahahaha! She has already defeated a dragon before!"

That\'s… That was an infant dragon! Which I suppose also count as a dragon too… But still!!

No, no, no! Look at them! Now they\'re looking at me like I\'m some kind of godlike being! I\'m not!! I\'m just a normal student, I swear!!

And as though on cue, a moan cut through the air.

"Ahhnnn~ Aster~ Mmmm~ I like it deeeeep~"

All of us looked at Lisa who was moaning in her sleep on my lap, the Infrid completely oblivious to it.

Seriously… She\'s even dreaming about sex with me? Actually… I\'m not surprised… Wouldn\'t even be the first time to be honest…

"Ah… Erm… I think maybe we can plan how we will deal with the Orcs later?" I asked, changing the topic, secretly thanking Lisa for taking the attention away from me.

Emilia looked up from her documents, "Even though we have yet to scout their stronghold?"

Err… That is true… How are we supposed to plan if we don\'t know the enemy yet?

Katsuki slipped one of her daggers back into its sheath after cleaning it, "I believe there is still merit to planning our positions in advance, Miss Emilia."

Wooo! Nice support Katsuki! I\'ll definitely fluff you and headpat you lots later!!

"Then should we wake those two up?" Tiara pointed to the two on my lap.

"Eh? I think it\'s fine to leave them?" I muttered.

The whole reason why I brought that up was to divert the attention away from me after all. The others in the wagon already knew most of my capabilities but these two seniors might start gossiping with the others in school.

Katsuki did not agree with me, however, "That won\'t do, Mistress. They would also be taking part in the subjugation as well. Shall I wake them up for you?"

"Eh? Wake them up for me? How?"

Katsuki stood up and took a moment to straighten her skirt before moving to my side and lowering herself again.

I was wondering why she took all the effort to straighten her dress if she was just going to mess it up again here when she leaned close to the two girls asleep on my lap.

"Mistress Aster is naked and singing in the bath right now."

""WHERE?!!""

The Infrid and Siren had risen so quickly out of their seats that Delmare actually fell off the seat while Lisa tripped over herself and accidentally kicked her shin against the wagon\'s seat.

Katsuki seemed to have anticipated that and was in the position to catch Delmare before she hit the ground but nothing could be done for Lisa so she ended up curling herself on the ground while embracing her shin in pain.

The horse pulling the wagon neighed in protest at the sudden movement but the coachwoman reined it in expertly, not even looking back to check what the commotion was.

"Pardon me, but that was just a lie," Katsuki explained to the two before turning to me. "Mistress, I have awakened them."

… How am I supposed to react to that?

"Tha… Thank you, Katsuki…"

"Unnghhh… Why did you have to do that, Katsuki?! Look! Now my leg is hurt! What do I do if Aster starts liking me less because of this?!" Lisa cried.

I don\'t think my feelings for you are that shallow to stop loving you just because of that though…

Oh wait!! This is the perfect opportunity, isn\'t it?! Did Katsuki also intentionally set this up for me?!

I turned to my two seniors, "Chamie, Harge… Could I please trouble you to help heal her?"

The two of them gave me a surprised look which quickly changed to a troubled one.

I wasn\'t expecting them to just accept my suggestion just like that so I was prepared to try and convince them slowly to at least give it a try. Especially since this was a small wound that didn\'t actually even need to be healed using magic in the first place.

But before I could even put my plan into motion, Lisa scowled at them, "No."

The way she spoke that single word was made with a tone of finality that practically said that there was no room for argument about her choice.

I turned to Lisa and found her crossing her arms while still seated on the floor, her eyes staring straight at the two girls seated across from me.

"Eh? Why not, Lisa? I know it\'s just something small that won\'t even classify as a wound but…"

Lisa pouted, "If Aster really wants it… I\'ll only accept if they also become part of your harem. I won\'t allow it if they aren\'t."

… Huh? What? What does this have to do with anything?

Also, there\'s no way I\'ll do that! I\'m not even interested in either of the girls that way!

"Umm… Why won\'t you allow yourself to be healed by them?"

"Because then I wouldn\'t be able to get you to heal me! I get to feel you wrapping up around my body and then flow inside me! This is the best feeling in the World!! No way am I going to let that chance slip away! So please heal me instead, Aster!"

… I apologise… I should have expected something like this to be the reason…

"Does it really matter though?" I sighed.

"Yes!!"

She didn\'t even hesitate to answer huh…

Ugh… Whatever, there\'ll be plenty of other chances for them to try so there\'s no need to force them now.

I went ahead and healed Lisa from the small mark she had when she bumped her shin against the seat.

That was when I heard another loud bump which made me look up.

The Princess was holding her hand carefully, "Ouch… I\'m sorry Aster… I hit my hand against the wood… Could I request to receive healing too?"

I didn\'t even get to respond before I heard another crack, this time it was Odeta cradling her hand while a small piece of wood from her bench lay beside her, evidently having been ripped out by her.

"Owow… I hurt myself too, Sister Aster! I\'m so clumsy!"

No, no… Don\'t go around destroying other people\'s wagons…

Two more bumps came from behind me and I saw Delmare now laying on the floor beside Katsuki who was in the same position.

"My… Apologies, Mistress… I seem to have fallen as well…"

"Ah… Aster… I think I hurt my tail a little too…"

…

What about the planning we were supposed to do?
