I’m Back in the Other World? Chapter 41

Chapter 41 – The Prince, Maid-san and I

 

 

「Eh? Chiffon-san…?」

The maid from the castle, Chiffon-san, was here.

Chiffon-san looked at me, who was shedding tears, then looked at the stain on the sheets, and then glared at the Prince that was standing at the entrance of the room.

「Your Highness Prince Sedrim, what is going on here?」

Chiffon-san questions the Prince in a low voice, whilst restraining her anger.

「I didn’t do anything. I’ll even swear an oath. Sakura was already crying when I woke up. I thought if it’s you, you’d be able to listen to her story, so I bought you here. I won’t discover anything if it’s me, so please take a look at Sakura.」

「…I understand. Since I’ll be listening to her story, please wait in another room, Your Highness.」

With a low voice, Chiffon-san said to the Prince and drove him out of the room, and approached my direction.

「Sakura-sama, it’s been a while. What has happened?」

Being asked with a gentle voice, tears starts pouring out of my eyes again.

「Chiffon-saaan.」

I buried my face in Chiffon-san’s chest as she sat down on the bed, and spoke those words while crying.

「I, don’t understand. Yesterday, wine, drank, and then, sniff, I don’t, remember. When I woke up, the blood, it hurt…. The Prince said, he didn’t know, sniff, what should, I do…」

Because I was crying, Chiffon-san patiently listened to my disconnected words.

「That stupid Prince…! Such a small child!」

Huh? I think I heard a strange voice…?

「So then…, does it still hurt? Uh, that area…?」

「Umm, ne, it’s like, throbbing pain, sniff, and oozy, my stomach, inside hurts. Blood too, won’t stop…. sniff.」

「Hmm? Inside, of the stomach? Oozy? And also, won’t stop bleeding you say… Perhaps…?」

Having something suddenly come to mind, Chiffon-san slightly ponders over it.

「Umm, Sakura-sama? Sakura-sama is, more or less, 15 years old right? Uh, this is extremely awkward to ask but…. Have you had that time of the month?」

More or less, what do you mean more or less? I’m a legitimate 15 year old.

「Eh? That time of the month…?」

Unable to understand the sudden question, she asked again.

「Uh, when a child’s body becomes able to give birth, that kind of thing.」

So the event of menstruation?

「Eh? aah, no, not yet, but…?」

「Excuse me, I’ll be a little impolite ne. Even though this will be embarra.s.sing, please bear with it.」

With that said, Chiffon-san knocked my body down onto the bed facing up, then suddenly spread out my legs.

「Eh? EEH!? What!? Chiffon-san??」

With my situation with my legs being spread out, laying down facing upwards, the blanket was also stripped off.1

And then between my spread out legs, Chiffon-san was…

What is this, this situation…?

「Please calm down. Because I’m examining it a little. If possible, don’t move and relax your body.」

Eh? Eh?

Looking at me being confused with a ? mark floating above my head, Chiffon-san smiles.

「Ara? Ufufu, Sakura-san has nothing growing ne. It’s also pretty here ne. ufufufu. Your chest is also pretty…. Ara? This is becoming a little exciting wa.」

Somehow, the atmosp
here has become dangerous!

「Waiー, Chiffon-san! Come back!?」

Being surprised by my voice, Chiffon-san’s expression changed.

「Ara, excuse me. cough. I will be examining Sakura-sama’s body for a little ne. It’s all right. Because there won’t be anything to fear.」

Somehow, there’s something suspicious from those words!

「n」

From Chiffon-san’s finger touching me there, I unintentionally let out my voice.

I realized that place was slowly being spread as it came in contact with air.

When I tried to see what was happening, I saw Chiffon-san peeping into it.

「Chiffon-san! What are you doing!?」

With a flushed face, I reflexively tried to close my legs, but Chiffon-san’s body was there so I wasn’t able to close them.

「Since I’m almost done, please hold still okay?」

Those words, aren’t they incredibly suspicious!?

Something entered inside me.

「fua」

From that feeling, a voice escaped from my mouth.

Shortly after, that something moved around inside of me as if searching for something, then it was suddenly taken out.

Afterwards, I realized Chiffon-san had separated from me.

Grabbing the blanket in a panic, I wrapped myself up.

「Sakura-sama. Congratulations.」

H u h ?   C o n g r a t u l a t i o n s ?   W h a t . . . ?

「This blood comes from that time of the month you see. From today, Sakura-sama has become an adult woman.」

「Eh…? Then, the Prince and I, didn’t do it…?」

「Right, I checked it just now but there wasn’t any lacerations in the surroundings, since I also confirmed your mark of chast.i.ty, I believe it’s certainly that time of the month.」

Then, so I’m still, a virgin….

As I felt relieved, Chiffon-san wonderingly asked.

「In the first place, why did you think it was that kind of thing? And also, how come His Highness was here?」

From those questions, my body trembled with a biku.

While being fl.u.s.tered, I somehow give an explanation.

「Umm, I’m, incredibly weak to alcohol, yesterday, I drank some wine the Prince brought over. And then, I lost consciousness, ne. When I woke up, I was naked, the Prince was sleeping besides me, then the blood. That’s why, umm.」

「In other words, His Highness encouraged you to drink alcohol, even though you were weak to it, you drank it and lost consciousness. When you woke up, you were lying naked in bed, and His Highness was sleeping besides you. You saw the blood on the sheets so you thought that had happened, is what you mean?」

Amazing, she understood from my explanation?

I nodded to Chiffon-san’s words with a koukoku.(nodding sound effect)

「His Highness, does he know Sakura-sama is weak to alcohol?」

「He knows…. Since this happened last time as well…」

When she heard those words, in amazement, Chiffon-san muttered with an angry expression.

「That stupid Prince! What is he doing!」

Huh? I’m hallucinating again…

「Cough. Then, does Sakura-sama have knowledge about that time of the month?」

I have basic knowledge from being taught at school.

「I know the basics…. However, about what I need to do…」

I know to use sanitary pads in j.a.pan, but I don’t know how it’s done in this world. After all, I was a man in my previous life.

「Is that so, generally, it’s either a cloth pad that would be pressed against your body by placing it in your underwear, or inserting a filling. For women who move around a lot, it seems they often use the filling. As for the cloth pad, it could slip out of your underwear and get blood stained on your clothes. Since Sakura-sama is an adventurer, wouldn’t the filling be better?」

That filling, is it the thing called a tampon in j.a.pan?

Eh? Directly inserting it? That might, be scary…

「Eeh, isn’t it scary to use the filling? If possible, the cloth pad would be better~ haha…」2

「If you don’t move around intensively, the cloth pad would be fine but… As an adventurer, that might be slightly difficult ne. There’s also your physical condition… Which reminds me, how’s your physical condition, Sakura-sama?」

Eh? Physical condition, aah, come to think of it, a cla.s.smate said it could be something like it being serious or minor, could it be that?3

「My stomach slightly hurts. Also my body is a little sluggish, or should I say, it feels heavy.」

「Do you feel anything like feeling sick?」

「As for my feelings…probably, I think it’s fine.」

After hearing my answers, Chiffon-san smiles.

「It appears Sakura-sama is only minorly affected. As for the serious effects, it would hurt so much you wouldn’t be able to move, you’ll also feel sick enough to throw up.」

Uwaa, that seems terrible ne.

I’m glad, it’s only minor.

「However, since your condition can become more serious because of various reasons, I suggest if you take a rest if you feel your physical condition worsen.」

Uーn, compared to a man, a lady has it hard ne.

「Well then, because after I explain this to His Highness, I’ll need to do some shopping, Sakura-sama, let me see. A skirt would be preferred today. Could you change into your clothes then wait for me? Aah, please apply a suitable and clean cloth in your underwear okay?」

With me nodding, Chiffon-san peeled off the stained sheets and I watched her leave.

I could hear the voices the Prince and Chiffon-san talking on the other side of the door.

Just like I was told, I took out a one-piece dress and wore it.

 

 

Having sat down after I finished changing, with the sound of a knock, I hear the Prince’s voice.

「Sakura, is it all right if I enter?」

For some reason or another, although I feel it’s awkward, I was the one who caused him to worry…4!!

「……Feel free.」

I believe it couldn’t be helped that I had a cold tone.

「I heard the story from Chiffon. I’m sorry, that, if you didn’t drink the alcohol last night, I believe it wouldn’t have ended up in such an uproar. I was fooling around because I wanted to tease a little and see your reaction. I apologize.」

Saying that, the Prince lowered his head.

「……It’s already fine. It seems nothing has happened. Since I also think it was my fault for drinking.」

「I see. Then, uh, how’s your physical condition? You don’t feel anything like feeling sick?」

He’s so nervous, so timid…

According to what I see, the situation of this large fully grown man has an atmosphere like he’s peeking at me like a dog, and because I heard him speak like that, I unintentionally blew out some air.5

「pu, -giggle-…. Prince, right now, you have an amazingly pitiable expression you know?」

「Mm? Is that so? I’m acting as my usual self but…」

That frown, as well as the pitiable atmosphere he’s giving off.6

「Ahahaha, mou, even if you worry that much, I’m fine. Although I’m sluggish and slightly in pain, it seems it’s only minor from what Chiffon-san told me.」

Laughing while answering, the Prince’s face became more and more pathetic.

「I see. However, let me apologize once more. I’m sorry. I’ll be careful not to let you drink anymore alcohol.」

「I understand. Since I’m also going to be careful」

When I said that, the Prince gently placed his hand on my head.

Being somewhat embarra.s.sed, I hung my head down.

Shortly after, the Prince slowly stroked my head.

What is this, this atmosphere. Somehow, I feel impatient!

「Umm! What will you do for breakfast, Prince?」

I try to somehow evade this atmosphere with those words.

「n? Aah, that’s right. Is that okay? For me to eat here…」

「Eh? Yes. Although I say that, I’ll only be able to make something simple.」

The Prince still continues to stroke my head with his hand.

Evasion failed!

While franticly trying to think of something, Chiffon-san came back.

「Ara? Ara ara? Am I disturbing…? Ufufufu.」

Wait! Isn’t this another misunderstanding!?

「No! You’re not disturbing! Welcome back, Chiffon-san!」

I hurriedly stood up, from my actions, the Prince somewhat disappointingly pulls back his hand.

「Ara? Is that right?」

That’s right!

「W-Which reminds me! What did you go out and buy, Chiffon-san?」

If it comes to this, I’ll have to forcibly change the subject.

「Ara ara. Well, could His Highness please leave the room for a moment? Since this is a conversation between women.」

Once again, the maid drove the Prince out of the room.

Is that okay? Prince-sama.

「Noow, Sakura-sama. Please put this on ne.」

After saying that, what she took out was… a small slender cloth folded up into many layers, a white triangular piece of cloth. And also a cylindrical piece of cotton…? With a string attached to it.

While accepting them for the time being, I question Chiffon-san with my eyes.

「This slender and folded cloth is a cloth pad, you attach it to your underwear when it’s that time of the month. This cylindrical one is a filling. All of these can be bought from the general store or a women’s clothing store.」

I somewhat understand the slender cloth.

My personal underwear are…, different from the usual g-strings, they’re made from thick cloth, the string goes around the waist and links together at the stomach.

The filling one…, let’s pretend we didn’t see that.

「Now, Sakura-sama. Quickly try put it on ne.」

Then grabbed onto my shoulder, as soon as Chiffon-san embraced me, Chiffon-san’s hand went up my skirt!

Even when I tried to get away, because she was hugging me so tightly, I couldn’t move my body.

「Wait, please wait! What are you doing!?」

Chiffon-san who wasn’t paying attention to her voice either,

「nfufu~. Cute♪ It’s alright you know~?」

What’s all right!?

In the blink of an eye, my underwear’s string was untied, pasari, and made a sound as it fell to the floor.

「Noow, Sakura-sama? I’ll teach you how to put it on okay?」

What caught my sight when I looked up was, Chiffon-san’s hand grasping the filling.

My body stiffened up the moment I saw that.

While I was stiffened, she turned and embraced me from behind.

「It’s not scary you know~? Because it’ll be over immediately okay~?」

Chiffon-san slowly lowered her hand.

「No, nononono…… NOOOOOOO!!!」

 

 

When I laid down on the bed exhausted, Chiffon-san stood up with a bright expression.

「u~, somehow, this feels strange.」

While falling prostrate on the bed, I let out a groan.

「Ufufu. that feeling will soon disappear you know? Aah, please change it at least once a day okay? Because if you leave it in, you can also get sick. Oh right, these are a gift from me. Since there’s enough for this time, don’t worry about using them okay? Because I’ve already received the payment♪.」

What payment!?

When I unconsciously looked up, Chiffon-san had both her hands in front of her chest, and happily smiled.

And then suddenly changed into a serious expression.

「Listen, Sakura-sama. If you have any troubles or worries, please consult me any time. His Highness… may be unreliable, so I’ll do what I can. Things like women’s troubles, ne?」

Prince, Chiffon-san has acknowledged you as a good-for-nothing you know?

After those words, I slowly look up at Chiffon-san.

As expected, huge…

「Umm…, then, I have one right now but…」

「Yes, what is it?」

Chiffon-san pleasantly smiles.

It seems she’s having fun ne…

「How do you grow so big?」

From my question, she changed into a troubled smile.

「That’s…. Are you talking about height?」

「No, there’s that too, but…. Like your chest, and like, your b.u.t.t. Chiffon-san, aren’t yours big? How do you get them so big?」

Chiffon-san has an ‘oh my’, kind of expression.

「I see. I don’t do any special in particular… However, don’t you think you’re also cute even when you’re small, Sakura-sama?」7

「But, isn’t it better to be big? Everyone in this country is big too. The Prince also likes it big…. After all, I don’t have the charm of a woman with me being so small ne…」

As I continued on while hanging my head down, Chiffon-san replied like she was having fun.

「I don’t think that’s the case but… If you want it big no matter what, then have you heard it’s beneficial if you let a gentleman ma.s.sage it? Shall we try request His Highness to do it?」

When I lifted up my head from those words, I saw her face smirking at me.

「Eh? Why the Prince? No, leaving that aside, that’s not the problem, it’s impossible, impossible. Absolutely, impossible!」

When I franticly conveyed that it was impossible, Chiffon-san answered with a ‘I understand’ while laughing and giggling.

 

 

Afterwards, I ate breakfast together with Chiffon-san and the Prince, who was waiting in the living room.

It was simply yesterday’s leftover soup and bacon and eggs, and also the bread I baked yesterday.

Today’s portion of the bread I baked had disappeared.

If I don’t make it again then…

By the way, Chiffon-san was surprised at my dishes, she was surprised again when she ate the bread, but that’ll be another story for another time.8
