Chapter 35
Bang─!
Poporing Spiaria's small fist slammed down on the shop counter.
“Ah! Seriously, it still pisses me off when I think about it... What? Adult products?!”
She couldn't get the comment she'd seen in the gallery yesterday out of her head.
She knew she'd been emotionally manipulated, but even knowing that, she simply couldn't stand it.
ㅇㅇ(892.151) : Who cares? LOL Ah~ I'm horny, so I'm gonna go jerk off with a Poporing Company vibrator LOL
“What a disgusting bastard!! ...You'd use someone else's creation in a place like that!!”
Actually, Poporing had fairly strong resistance to trolling.
She herself enjoyed trolling people in the gallery while using a VPN, so that was only natural.
If the gallery persona ‘
Dark Emperor
’ had been hit with a mother joke, she would have been pleased that it had attracted attention rather than getting this angry.
But...
When the real-life persona ‘
Poporing Company
’ was attacked, she became so furious that she couldn't sleep.
“If he weren't an anonymous user, I'd totally take him down!!”
She had never made or sold anything as low-class as adult products.
Poporing might have been poor, but she wasn't lacking in pride as an artisan!
The vibrator had only been commercialized after she'd made it for herself because her breasts made her shoulders ache.
It absolutely had not been made for use as an adult product!!
No, before she commercialized it,
‘that purpose’
hadn't even occurred to her as a possible use for a vibrator!
“The world is what's wrong! It's wrong!! It makes no sense that a talented magic-tool maker like me is stuck in a run-down shop like this!!”
Bang─! Clatter─
When Poporing slammed the counter again, the ‘orc aphrodisiac’ fell to the floor.
“...Ah. ...Th-that is strictly for livestock breeding... That's really all it is... I-I didn't sell it to any suspicious people either...”
Poporing muttered to herself as though making excuses while returning the fallen ‘orc aphrodisiac’ to its place.
Come to think of it, she had sold it once to a suspicious person whose face was completely covered because they hadn't been able to eat anything for several days... Surely that person hadn't fed it to a human.
“Seriously... if this research succeeds... I'll make it big... Please... just succeed...”
Wriggle─ Wriggle─
At that, something inside the jar moved, as if it knew she was talking about it.
“Sigh... I have to pay next month's rent soon, too... Why are there no customers...”
The old shop her grandmother had left her was in a terrible location.
Though it was inside the capital, reaching it required walking for quite a while down a narrow road that even carriages couldn't use.
When her grandmother had run it, the shop had managed to get by thanks to long-standing regulars and her grandmother's excellent gift of gab...
‘W-welcome...’
But because of Poporing's personality, which made doing business impossible, and the ‘Red Rose Company’ branch that had opened nearby, the shop had no business at all anymore.
“Ugh... I think I'm really going to get kicked out this time.”
Poporing had moved into this shop after paying a five-million-Eris deposit and 450,000 Eris in monthly rent.
But the entire deposit had already been eaten up, and she was now two months behind on rent.
The landlord had said that if she didn't pay this month's rent, the landlord would forcibly evict her, so she would probably have to live in this cramped shop starting next month.
“...M-maybe... have I... really ruined my life?”
When she began seriously thinking about her future, her hands and feet suddenly grew cold, and breathing became difficult.
“Th-there's no way!! I...I have talent!”
Afraid that thinking any deeper would make things irreversible, Poporing desperately forced herself into optimistic thinking.
“R-right!...I just...haven't hit it big yet!! Y-yeah!! I'm still young, too!!”
That's right, there was no way her life had been ruined!
Because she really did have talent!!
The only problem was that the world failed to recognize it!!!
Ding─!
Just then, as if to prove it, she heard the sound of the shop door opening.
“...!!!”
Handsome.
That was the only thought left in Poporing's mind the moment she saw the customer's face.
He was tall, with broad shoulders, yet his smiling face still retained the innocence of a boy.
His black eyes looked as though they might suck her in if she kept staring, while his red lips held a hint of mischief.
“Is anyone here?”
If she forced herself to find a flaw, his unkempt blond hair was almost shaggy, but even that gave him the wildness of a male lion.
“Ah! You're here. Are you open right now?”
“Y-ye-ye-yes!...I-I-I’m o-open!!”
Poporing normally couldn't even speak properly to people.
Speaking properly in a situation like this was impossible.
“W-what...what...what are you l-looking f-for...?”
“Ah... um... a vibrator.... I'm looking for one that can be controlled remotely.”
“A-a vibrator... th-that's what you mean, right...? J-just...just a moment!!”
While rummaging around behind the counter to take out the product, Poporing suddenly remembered the manager's post.
[Guys, I've recently gotten interested in anal masturbation. Is this one here good for beginners?]
‘...N-no...surely...are you planning to use it...in...that place?’
Poporing might have been poor, but she was full of pride as an artisan.
Even if the other person was incredibly handsome, if he intended to use it for
‘that purpose’
she would never sell it to him!
“E-ex-excuse me!!...M-might I ask...!”
“Yes. What is it?”
But the moment Poporing saw the customer's face, she gave up on asking.
Surely someone who looked like that couldn't possibly masturbate anally!
‘...R-right... the manager is an ugly, socially rejected loser who does nothing but sexually harass people...!’
By contrast, that man looked like the sort of person anyone he raped would automatically settle with.
“Ah... um... th-th... I mean?...Ah!!...Th-this!.....It's a s-service.....”
Searching for something to say, Poporing handed him the gel that happened to be in her hand along with the vibrator.
It was massage gel she used whenever she woke up with a stiff neck from sleeping in an awkward position.
“Ah, thank you. How much?”
“Th...that is...the v-vibrator is...200,000...ah...no, just 180,000...Eris, please...”
“Yes, here you go. Thank you. I'll come again.”
“Ye...yes!...Thank...you...P-please...come again...”
Ding─!
“...He...he said he'd come...again..!....Heehee!”
After the shop door closed, Poporing clutched the money left in her hand and smiled brightly.
****
“More expensive than I thought.”
A vibrator barely the size of a thumb had cost 180,000 Eris....
Her already precarious allowance for the month was nearly gone.
[Author: ㅇㅇ(74.812)]
[LOL I got hit on today][23]
A ridiculously handsome guy came to my shop, and when I gave him a discount because he was so handsome, he suddenly came on strong, saying he'd come to see me again next time LOL What do I do? LOL Ah~ Should I accept him or not? LOL
‘There are people like this in the world...’
She couldn't even imagine how handsome someone had to be to gain the confidence to confess at first sight.
ㄴㅇㅇ(39.919) : Hmm... Isn't this the person said to have annual sales of 15 billion Eris? Someone like that personally runs a shop? LOL I'm just laughing and leaving ^^
ㄴㅇㅇ(74.812) : The self-proclaimed phantom-thief bitch is here again LOL You would've known if you'd tried working instead of stealing. Yeah, I go out sometimes as a hobby~
ㄴㅇㅇ(39.919) : LOL Yes, yes ^^ Of course you do. I knew it from the moment you started spouting that ridiculous nonsense about 15 billion Eris in sales, but you're just delusional LOL
ㄴㅇㅇ(74.812) : Yeah~ Next up, some washed-up bitch who can't even steal LOL
The moment she opened the gallery, she saw its usual peaceful scene.
She wanted to watch their fight a little longer, but it was almost time for the carriage to arrive, so she quickly logged out and left a comment.
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : You bitch in heat
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : Yes...
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : I'm going for a walk tonight, so get ready.
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : .....Yes, Master...
It was time to advance her relationship with Yuris another step.
***
Rustle─ rustle─
In the middle of the night, Yuris headed for the old school building through the bushes, wearing a long coat.
“Haa...!...Hngh...! Ngh...”
Because she was wearing nothing except the coat, her nipples rubbed painfully with every step... but it was the walking outfit Master had ordered, so she had no choice.
It had been two weeks since Master had discovered her identity.
1. Always keep the gallery notifications on, and immediately answer whenever Master comments, including in the church.
2. Masturbate every day. However, she had to receive permission before climaxing.
3. Receive permission before peeing.
Contrary to her fear that she would be blackmailed, her relationship with Master had barely changed apart from those three conditions.
Of course, Master sometimes ordered her to go for walks like this... but that was only natural for a bitch.
She was grateful simply that Master wasn't raping her.
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : I've...arrived... Master.
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : Yes, I can see you. Take it off.
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : Yes...
Yuris stood in a spot where Master could clearly see her from the duty-room window, then took off her coat.
Rustle─
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : Seems to get bigger every time I see it LOL How did you even hide that while going around?
“Hnggg...!”
Shame and pleasure.
The first time she'd gone for a walk, the shame had been so intense that it was impossible to believe...
But now, Yuris herself could no longer deny that the pleasure she felt was stronger than the shame.
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : ...Thank you...
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : That's right, bitch. Stop speaking like a person and get down.
“....Woof.”
Even though she knew Master couldn't hear her, Yuris faithfully barked and crawled along the ground on all fours.
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : LOL Good girl. This time, the endurance pose.
“Ugh....”
It was one of the bitch poses Master had told her to memorize.
Clenching her fists, she squatted down and spread her legs wide so that Master could clearly see her pussy...
“...Woof!”
She had to smile as if she were genuinely happy.
‘Haa...♥Haa...it...it's an order..!’
She wasn't really smiling because she was happy.
She was only smiling because that, too, was part of the endurance pose.
As Yuris repeated that to herself over and over...
‘Ugh...!...I...I need to...pee...!!’
Perhaps because the cold wind was touching her bare skin, the urge she'd barely forgotten rose up again.
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : Bitch. What are you doing instead of holding the pose?
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : I'm sorry..Master...
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : But this bitch...needs to...pee...Please let me go to the bathroom...
‘..P-please...’
Because Master hadn't allowed her to use the bathroom today, she'd already faced several close calls, but this time she truly couldn't hold it any longer.
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : The bathroom? Go.
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : Th-thank you..
When Yuris stood up with a sigh of relief at Master's permission, another notification sounded.
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : What are you doing? Where are you going?
ㄴHolyPowerStorageTank■ : To the bathroom... because you gave me permission, Master...
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : LOL The bathroom is behind you.
‘...B-behind...?’
Yuris turned around, but all she could see were trees.
‘There’s nothing here... huh?...N-no way...?’
Before Yuris could even become horrified at the thought....
ㄴㅇㅇ(89.74) : Bitch. Peeing pose.
Master's command came through.
