*Knock knock*
Riech barely had time to finish reading through the list of rewards he had received for completing the latest challenge before a sharp knock interrupted his thoughts.
"He's here already? That was quick," he muttered, glancing toward the door.
At the moment, Riech was in a half-dressed state. His upper torso was bare, revealing a well-defined build—a testament to years of rigorous training. Despite having abandoned his physical regimen for months due to a certain incident, he hadn't lost much muscle mass or gained any fat. His physique was still in prime condition, perfectly suited for someone of his age.
When he opened the door, he was greeted not by his former attendant as expected, but by Sulvia, the young maid assigned to collect his clothes.
Her eyes immediately widened, and her cheeks flushed crimson as they landed on his exposed chest. A visible blush spread across her face, and she looked down, her composure shattered. Sulvia could feel the heat rising to her face, and for a moment, she stood frozen, unable to muster even a single coherent word. Though Riech's reputation was far from admirable, his striking appearance was undeniably magnetic, even to someone as disciplined as her.
"Hey, what's the matter?" Riech asked, leaning casually against the doorframe.
"Eep! A-Apologies, Master!" Sulvia stammered, quickly bowing to hide her embarrassment. "I've come to collect your clothes."
Riech raised an eyebrow, momentarily confused by her reaction, before realizing his state of undress. Shrugging it off, he gestured casually toward the bed. "They're over there. Help yourself."
"Y-Yes, Master," she replied hastily, slipping into the room. Sulvia avoided making eye contact as she gathered the neatly folded clothes from the bed, all the while trying to suppress the fluttering sensation in her chest.
Before leaving, she paused at the door, turning to bow once again. "Master, thank you for showing mercy to that poor maid."
"You don't need to thank me," Riech replied, his tone even. "It was a simple mistake, and it's not like I'm the kind of man to go chopping off heads over something like that."
His words carried a weight of sincerity, though Sulvia seemed genuinely surprised by them. The first awkward encounter they had unexpectedly warmed the icy barrier between them after he first arrived in this world, and in the eight days since Riech had found himself in this strange NTR game world, Sulvia was one of the few people who treated him like an actual human being. She didn't tremble in fear or see him as the bloodthirsty tyrant his reputation painted him to be.
"Still, Master, I would like to express my gratitude," Sulvia insisted, bowing again.
"You really don't have to keep bowing," Riech said with a faint chuckle. "You'll bust your back doing that all the time."
The corners of Sulvia's lips twitched into a small smile. "I'll keep that in mind, Master."
Riech studied her for a moment, noting how different she was from the others in the household. Her open and friendly personality made her easy to talk to, even if their conversations were still bound by the formalities of master and servant. Unlike the others, Sulvia didn't fear him, and their closeness was likely due in part to their similar ages. At twenty-five, Sulvia wasn't much older than Riech, who was twenty-four, and this shared proximity in years made their interactions feel more natural.
As she straightened her back, Riech decided to broach another subject. "By the way, Sulvia, are you free tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow, Master?" Sulvia asked, tilting her head slightly. "Aside from my usual duties, I don't have anything planned. Is there something you need of me?"
"Nothing too serious," Riech replied casually. "I'd like you to accompany me on an incognito visit to the city."
"An incognito visit?" Sulvia repeated, her curiosity piqued. "Is there a reason you need me for this? Oh, I mean—! Apologies, Master, I didn't mean to question you." She fumbled over her words, flustered by her unintended boldness.
"It's fine," Riech reassured her with a wave of his hand. "Honestly, I don't mind being asked questions. At least not by you. There's no grand reason for bringing you along—it's just that you're the only person who doesn't act terrified of me. If I took anyone else, they'd probably freak out the whole time and make the trip unbearable."
Sulvia blinked, surprised by his honesty. It wasn't often that he let his guard down like this, and she found herself appreciating his candidness.
"I see. If that's the case, I'd be honored to accompany you, Master," she said, bowing her head slightly—this time, more out of respect than obligation.
"Good," Riech said with a nod. "Then it's settled. We'll leave early tomorrow."
As Sulvia exited the room, her heart felt lighter. For the first time in a long while, she saw a side of her master that felt... human.
After Sulvia Left and Just as he began to relax, the faint *ding!* of a system notification rang out, shattering the brief peace.
A glowing screen materialized in front of his face, and Riech groaned, already dreading what it might say.
"Just how many system prompts are gonna pop up today?" he muttered, running a hand through his hair as he focused on the text.
He leaned in, scanning the words, and as he read, his expression froze.
[New Quest: Seduce Sulvia and Bang Her!]
"What the fuck is this prompt?!" Riech exploded, standing up from the bed. "Are you even fucking serious? What the hell does this even mean?"
Before he could fully process it, the system screen expanded, revealing further details about the quest:
{

Riech blinked, his brain short-circuiting as he read the rewards. Then, almost instinctively, the words spilled from his mouth.
"Brother in Christ, I know Sulvia is a gorgeous fucking girl, but how the hell am I supposed to bang her in a month? You've gotta be kidding me!"
He began pacing the room in frustration, his hands flailing as he ranted to no one in particular. "I mean, sure, the reward is... good? But come on! A month? I barely even know her properly! You're expecting me to go from formal conversations to... that? This is insane!"
Riech let out an exasperated groan, sinking back onto the bed.
