Chapter 111: Iferaski and Fullru Seem to Get Along Well, So Let’s Have Some Yuri

Breakfast ended up at about the same time as yesterday.

There were even more neighbors than yesterday—maybe they were invited by Rafilia-san or heard the rumors.

The capybara girls approached both the new humans and the ones who were here yesterday, introducing themselves.

I wonder if they want people to remember their names, if they enjoy introducing themselves, or if that’s just their standard greeting.

I got greeted too, but the only one I could recognize at a glance was the kemololi.

Sorry, but I couldn’t tell the others apart without staring.

If they stood next to each other, the capybara one was obvious because her face looked like a capybara. The llama one had a lisp, so you could tell from her voice.

The rest were hard to distinguish.

I was starting to notice physical differences—like the one with long arms, the one with a scar near her nose, or the one with short fur—but I still couldn’t match names to faces.

As planned, Dura-san arrived, so I introduced her to Rafilia-san as my older sister.

No one seemed suspicious. Dura-san blended into the group of humans while pretending to be one. Holding a baby probably helped her avoid suspicion.

The dog girls seemed scared or wary of the large number of humans. After receiving bread and sausages, they retreated to the small kitchen/dining hut.

Iferaski also seemed overwhelmed by the crowd of humans. She hid behind my back, clutching my clothes and refusing to let go.

No choice then—I’d take Iferaski with me to the elf’s place.

I received wine, sausages, and bread from Rafilia-san and headed to the second floor of the house in the right rear of the church.

"Hey~ Masharu and Iferaski are here~"

"Eh, who?"

"...Have I really been forgotten after just one day?"

"I remember your name, Masharu. I meant the other one."

"Oh. Iferaski is the horse girl who was locked up in the same cell as you."

"Ah. Then it’s fine. Come in."

Oh.

There was no hostility in her voice. Was she in a good mood, or had my favorability gone up?

I pushed the door open with my shoulder and entered the room.

Immediately, Iferaski dashed past me and jumped onto the bed.

Lick lick.

Iferaski started licking Fullru’s cheek while she was still lying down.

"Hey. That tickles. Stop it."

Lick lick.

Surprisingly, there was zero hostility in Fullru’s words.

Even though Iferaski kept licking her, her expression didn’t match her words—she didn’t seem to dislike it. What kind of change of heart is this?

Also, Iferaski was unusually attached to her. Iferaski didn’t lick the dog girls or capybara girls, and she didn’t just lick anyone.

Did these two get close because they were in the same cell?

"If she doesn’t stop, just pinch her nipples."

"I could never do something so cruel. If anyone did that to a horse girl, I’d pinch their nipples."

I see.

So if I pinch Iferaski’s nipples, Fullru will play with mine?

That’s killing two birds with one stone.

No, it’s double nipple pinching, so two stones for four birds.

Fullru tried to sit up, but her body still lacked strength—she could only lift her head.

Then, surprisingly, Iferaski seemed to understand what Fullru wanted. She reached out, supported Fullru’s back, and helped her sit up.

Iferaski was being incredibly considerate?!

"Thank you, Iferaski. Oh, right. I should tell you my name too. I’m Fullru."

"Pi."

She introduced herself!

Fullru actually gave her name!

Didn’t she say that being called by name makes it harder to use spirit power?

Ah. Since Iferaski can’t say names, it doesn’t matter if hers is known.

Still, it was unexpected. These two really get along. Maybe Iferaski visited this room while I was gone?

"What’s with that look?"

"Ah, no... I thought you disliked beastmen."

"Elves generally don’t like other races. But horse girls are different, right?"

"Is that how it works?"

"Horse girls are loved by every race. Humans, of course, and elves too. Even demons don’t thoughtlessly harm horse girls."

"I see..."

That makes sense. Even on Earth, horses are special. Dogs, the closest animal to humans, are said to not get along with cats, and there’s the phrase "like cats and dogs" for bad relationships with monkeys too. But you don’t really hear about horses having bad compatibility with other animals.

There’s a theory that even though human ancestors originated in Africa, civilization didn’t develop there because there were no horses. Zebras in Africa are violent and don’t let people ride them—they can’t be domesticated. That’s why African people couldn’t use horses for transportation or plowing fields with horse-drawn plows.

Europe’s population growth was driven by increased wheat production, but a major factor wasn’t just better varieties—it was the invention of the heavy wheeled plow pulled by horses.

Oxen were also used for plowing, but horses were far stronger, had more stamina, and were easier to handle.

European rivers flow gently, so they used towboats—loading cargo onto boats and having horses on the riverbank pull them.

Horses handled not just personal travel but logistics too.

In other words, horses supported the development of modern Europe.

If horse girls and horses have contributed similarly to civilization in this world, it’s only natural that other races like them.

Hmmm.

Fullru and Iferaski were getting all lovey-dovey and yuri-like. I could watch them forever.

But they still need to use the toilet and eat.

Ah!

I can have Iferaski do it!

That way I get to watch yuri play, and the two of them can get even closer. Two birds with one stone.

Someday, if they get really close, they might even do tes mains (French for "your hands") hand-manning on each other.

Come to think of it, I wanted to show off the weird Japanese-French coincidence of "tes mains = hand man" as trivia someday, but I never got the chance.

For now, I handed Iferaski the cup of wine and had her give it to Fullru.

Yeah. Beautiful. I behaved myself and didn’t interfere at all.

Ah.

Maybe the cup was tilted wrong, or Fullru wasn’t used to drinking, but some wine spilled from the corner of her mouth, ran down her neck, and slipped into her collar.

"Hey, Iferaski. The wine spilled. If it stains, it’ll be a problem, so you need to wipe it up right away."

"Pi!"

Iferaski set the cup on the floor and grabbed Fullru’s clothes—.

"Eh?"

Before Fullru could react, she tried to strip her.

But since it was a one-piece dress, the skirt part was pinned down by Fullru’s butt, so she couldn’t take it off.

Damn it.

Interfering in yuri time is a grave sin, but I have no choice!

I’ll show you!

Physical ability on par with the kingdom’s strongest knight!

I moved at the highest super-god-speed possible, slipped my hand between the bed and Fullru’s butt, casually groped it, lifted her light, small body, and before her butt could fall back onto the bed, I scooped up both her armpits from below, stroked them, raised her arms into a "banzai" pose, and smoothly pulled the dress off over her head.

"Eh? Eh?"

Fullru looked confused at suddenly being completely naked.

A thin red line of wine ran down the center of her body and pooled in her navel.

My interference ends here. Iferaski, the rest is up to you!

Clean up the spilled wine nicely.
