Chapter 72: Rania's Progress [2]

As we arrived at the restaurant, I booked a private room and paid for it upfront. Because we only needed to talk for a while, I only booked the room for an hour.

We sat side by side this time, and we didn't order any drinks as I knew Rania could get drunk easily. That wouldn't do. If I wanted to have a duel right after this, I wouldn't let her have any excuse for losing against me.

"So, Arthur. What do you want to talk about with me? You sounded a bit serious." Rania spoke first, asking with a curious tone.

"It might be a difficult choice for you," I replied, looking at her. "I am creating a knight squad, and I want to invite you, Rania."

Her jaw dropped as she looked at me, shocked, "Me?" She pointed at herself, still confused. "I am the former Knight Commander, a Royal Knight, you know? You know the relationship between the Royal house and the church lately. Even if the church allowed it, the Royal Family might not."

As expected, she was also aware of a strangled relationship between the government and the church. Due to the recent incident where the nobles suddenly stopped donating for some reason, both sides were in some sort of a cold war.

It was resolved by the discussion between Sana and King Cassius yesterday, but the formal announcement had yet to be made. So it was natural if Rania didn't know about it yet.

Besides...

"With my authority as a Paladin, I can even force King Cassius to transfer you to my squad. However, I want to respect your opinion. That's why I am inviting you and asking for your opinion. I need you, Rania."

I didn't lie. I really needed Rania in my squad.

'I need to dominate her if I want to dominate Sophia.'

The requirement had become easy due to my Domination System. But I still needed time to dominate girls, especially because I had not had enough Sins yet.

'After my knight squad is formed, I need to go outside the Academy City and venture to accumulate a lot of Sins.'

Staying in Academy City and farming Sins slowly wasn't bad. But that would be too slow. I couldn't finish the various things that gave me a lot of Sins.

The first step for that was to dominate Rania.

"So, what's your answer?"

Rania fell silent. Her eyes cast downward, looking at her smooth thighs exposed due to her sitting position; her skirt clung to her clothes, and I could see the slit hidden between her fleshy thighs underneath her white leotard.

I turned my gaze up immediately. She looked a bit... happy, which was unexpected.

"Do you really need me?" She raised her head; her expression hardened into a serious one. "As you said, it is an important decision. So, Arthur, do you really need this useless big sister of yours who retired from my position as a Knight Commander because of a reason that I can't tell you yet?

To be honest, I already knew the reason. She was just a huge masochist who enjoyed being hit. Because she didn't want her dignity as a Knight Commander to fall in her subordinates' eyes, she chose to retire and train the future talents for the kingdom.

And I didn't really care about that. If she felt good to be hit, at least I would be the one to satisfy her. Her dignity fell? I didn't think those girls would even care about dignity, as I would shoulder all the glory and the Sins.

"I am serious, Rania." So I answered her seriously as our sapphire-colored eyes met.

"I don't care about your reason for retiring as a Knight Commander. You can keep it a secret from me if you want to. The people in my knight squad also won't be curious about it. I want you, Rania. You're the only one I can trust with this. I need you to be my Vice-Captain."

Rania's face blushed as her mouth opened and closed rapidly like a fish. What I said was truly like a confession, but that was my honest feeling.

In my <Presence Detection> radar, Rania's dot was blue. I knew her personality relatively well, and she also considered me important to her due to our history that I didn't even know.

"T-T-That..." She stuttered, backing away slightly from me, but she was unable to as her butt was on the corner of the chair already.

Our faces were close to each other due to our position, and I kept coming closer to her, not giving her a chance to escape.

"What's your answer, Rania? If you have a condition, then I will also listen to it."

I stopped when our noses were about to touch each other. Her hot breath brushed against my skin.

Staying like this, I wanted to kiss her and push her down. I bet she also didn't mind if I was rough. Rather, I guessed she would squeal and moan in pleasure when I spanked those plump butts of hers, squeezing them and leaving them with a red color, then covering them with my semen.

Still, I wanted to conquer her after the duel. I would have her accept her masochistic side in public later, under the gaze of her future comrades, so she would be honest when she was with us.

Her image would be shattered, but only in our knight squad. I wouldn't allow anyone else to look down on her just because she was a huge masochist.

"C-Condition?" Rania muttered in a low voice as her eyes bulged in realization.

"Yes, do you have any?" I asked as I backed away, giving her space. The pressure was applied, and I knew what she would say next.

"A condition." She muttered to herself once again as she looked at me. "Then I have one. Beat me in an official duel, Arthur. Even if we are family, I will not join a knight squad whose Captain is weaker than me. I know you're strong, but I want to see it directly and judge myself how strong you are."

They were all the same.

Knights, upholding their pride and dignity. They wouldn't let someone they didn't respect command them. Most of them chose to die rather than serve someone they didn't respect.

"Alright." I nodded, my eyes narrowed in a dangerous slit.

I wasn't a knight. Paladin was also just my job, something that wasn't a part of the real me.

"Let's have an official duel in front of the future members of my knight squad."

Rania's face flushed red in happiness and excitement altogether. She was truly a rare kind of breed of knight. To think she would be that happy to be glared at with cold eyes. No, maybe she was happy because it was me who glared at her.

It was such a satisfying feeling to meet her. A prideful former Knight Commander who chose to retire rather than enjoy the pleasure of getting hit. I must thank her for not sullying herself. I should be grateful that she was my older sister in this world.

'I can experience both forbidden feelings at once. And she can also feel a forbidden feeling of being her little brother's masochistic slave.'

Sullying a knight that was also my older sister. Oh, how satisfying it would be when I saw her pleasured expression. I wanted to see it as soon as possible.

"If I win, you will grant my 3 wishes." I laid my condition for the official duel.

There needed to be a stake which both sides desired. That condition needed to be equal. And this stake was the most beneficial for me as it would allow me to get what I wanted faster.

"Cough." Rania coughed into her fist, and she put on a serious expression. "If I win, you will grant my 3 wishes." She continued.

An equal stake. It was all set.

Whoever won would get what they wanted. Even if Rania won by chance, I knew what she might be thinking. Though there was no way I would lose against her.

"Alright." I grinned in excitement as I laid bare my feelings. "I will crush you, Rania. Don't expect me to go easy just because you're my big sister. I will make you mine."

Rania also smiled excitedly at my words. There was a bit of lust and arousal written on her blushed face. Maybe she understood my intention and purposely accepted my condition too.

She wasn't a fool, just a lewd knight.

"Come at me with everything you have, Arthur. I will take it all with all I got."
