Nobunaga Oda's Isekai Cultivation Experience - Chapter 52

“…”

After briefly considering whether or not he wanted to disturb the sleeping beauty, Nobu’s need to piss compelled him to extricate himself from her embrace. This was immediately followed by a soft inquiry, concern tinging Yuriko’s voice as she opened her nearly luminescent amber eyes and asked, “My Lord…?”

Shaking his head, Nobu whispered, “Go back to sleep. I just need to take a piss. I’ll be back in a bit.”

Rising to a seated position, Yuriko revealed that she had become completely naked at some point, her tanned skin catching the light emitting from the room’s dimly lit lantern perfectly. This caused Nobu to momentarily freeze in place, his eyes captivating by the sight of the smiling woman as she smoothly tied her long back hair into a ponytail and asked, “Do you even know where the latrine is located…?”

Frowning in response, Nobu was about to suggest he would just take a piss outside when Yuriko sent a shiver through his body, saying, “I’ll check to see if there’s a bedpan underneath the tatami. If there isn’t, you can use my mouth. Afterward, I can give you a blowjob to help you fall back asleep.”

Though he understood exactly what she meant, Nobu still found himself tentatively inquiring, “Use your mouth…?” in an uncertain, moderately incredulous, tone.

With an expression that seemed to imply it was no big deal, Yuriko nodded her head, saying, “Yeah. Kunoichi have iron stomachs after ingesting a ton of poi-specialized plants and herbs. I’ve actually wanted to try something like this for a while. Oh, and don’t worry. I won’t try to kiss you or anything until I’ve properly rinsed my mouth.”

Staring at the naked woman digging through various items hidden beneath the tatami in the corner of the room, Nobu’s expression remained incredulous as the image of Yuriko sucking his cock as he pissed down her throat briefly entered his mind. It was the kind of thing you only expected to find in some of the more fucked up pornos, yet, as if she was genuinely looking forward to it, the naked beauty in front of him mentioned drinking his piss with a fucking smile on her face…

Shaking his head clear of such thoughts, Nobu rose to his feet and said, “Just show me where the lavatory, latrine, or whatever is. Even if you ask me to, I’m not going to piss in your mouth. You’re not a fucking toilet.”

Raising her brows, Yuriko maintained the smile on her face as she issued a light chuckle and replied, “Thanks…?” in a slightly amused tone. She was a little disappointed he had refused, but, at the same time, it made her heart tickle to hear him declare she wasn’t a toilet with a serious expression and a look of conviction in his eyes.

Furrowing his brows in response to Yuriko’s reaction, Nobu was about to say something when the naked kunoichi beat him to the punch, explaining, “The nearest latrine is a bit away from here, but Yui should be able to escort you. I’m gonna go ahead and swap with someone else. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t mind staying here indefinitely, but the other girls might complain if I receive too much special treatment.”

Punctuating her words with a surprise kiss, an even more radiant smile appeared across Yuriko’s face as she moved away from him and attempted to pick up her clothes. This left Nobu feeling a little speechless, but, as he really did need to take a piss, he just watched her climb into the ceiling with a pensive look on his face before shaking his head and moving towards the room’s entrance.

Opening the door, Nobu was unsurprised to find Yui sitting in a flawless seiza, her back straight as she silently surveyed the area. When she noticed his presence, she habitually motioned to bow, but, before she could complete it, her body paused for a brief moment before she ultimately just rose to her feet and asked, “Is there someplace you wished to visit?”

Rather than immediately respond, Nobu stared at Yui for several seconds with a similarly pensive look. He could see light bruising around her eyes, a tell-tale sign that she had been crying not all that long ago. This caused a frown to develop across his face, and, though he could have just let matters rest, he asked, “What’s wrong?” in a somber tone.

Though her first instinct was to say that nothing was the matter, Yui paused for a short moment before hanging her head slightly and answering, “I wanted to apologize to you…not for what has happened recently, but for everything I did to you previously. I thought I could make up for it by performing my duty well, but the only thing I accomplished was troubling you…I’m sorry…”

With a sour expression on her face, Yui looked like she was on the verge of tears as she formed her hands into fists. It felt insincere to apologize while she was standing on her feet, but, after what had happened previously, she wasn’t sure how she should be acting. Fortunately, this seemed to be the correct choice, as, moments after her apology, an exasperated sigh escaped Nobu’s throat before he placed his hand on her head and muttered, “You really are an idiot…” in a soft, ostensibly gentle, tone.

Despite the fact he had just called her an idiot, Yui felt as if a great weight had been lifted from her heart the moment she heard Nobu’s words. For a brief moment, she even considered hugging him, but, fearing she would inconvenience him due to her armor, she just trembled for a few seconds as he continued to caress her head. Then, as if he had read her thoughts, Nobu was the one who took the initiative to wrap her in his embrace, his lanky arms providing a strange sense of comfort as his body heat transmitted through her armor…

Though he wasn’t quite sure what he expected, Nobu never imagined that the lavatory of the main estate was a stable-like latrine hanging precariously over an artificial stream. The toilets themselves were essentially just holes cut in the floor, and, rather than anything like stalls, the entire facility was open. As a result, anyone using the outhouse was fully exposed to everyone else that happened to visit around that same time. There was absolutely no privacy, and, due to the penchant of kunoichi to walk around without clothes on, Nobu nearly fell through the opening in the floor when a naked woman with dark hair and purple eyes entered the lavatory and made use of the hole two spaces to his left. To make matters even worse, she even attempted to converse with him, a smile on her face as she eyed his penis and released a steamy golden stream of her own…

Choosing to ignore the woman, for a substantial number of reasons, Nobu wrapped up his business before raising his hand in a casual gesture of farewell and departing the facility. There, he found Yui waiting outside, an apologetic expression on her face as she explained, “This is why I didn’t want to wait outside…”

Shaking his head, Nobu just muttered, “Whatever…” before attempting to lead the way back to the room. It was extremely chilly near the top of the mountain, especially in the middle of the night, so he was eager to return to the relative warmth of his room. The cotton yukata he had been given did very little to block out the cold, so, once the opportunity presented itself, he intended to draw up a few different designs for t-shirts, jackets, and trousers. The girls’ outfits were a lot more complicated than anything he expected to encounter in this era so he was reasonably sure they would be able to procure or produce something better suited to his American sensibilities.

Fortunately, Nobu had always been pretty talented when it came to things like art and design. The only reason he hadn’t gotten into architecture and design was that it took between 5-8 years to get a Master’s Degree. It was possible to get a decent job without one, but, when it came to careers, the higher-tiered degrees ensured much better pay and benefits.

Noticing her Lord in deep thought, Yui wanted to ask what was on his mind but ultimately chose to remain silent. The only thing her Grandmother had told her after their return was that he was a very important existence to both the Oda and Yoshitsune Clans. She wanted her to watch over him, and, as much as possible, support the decisions he made. This all but confirmed her suspicions regarding Nobu’s consumption of a Heavenly Treasure. What she didn’t understand was where his knowledge, memories, and personality originated from…

With the sense of a normal human being, Nobu remained blissfully unaware of the fact that Yui was observing him with the intensity of a barred owl eyeing a field mouse. Instead, he remained focused on navigating the hallways until they reached the corridor containing his, and three other, rooms.

Spotting not one, but two familiar figures sitting patiently outside his room, Nobu raised his brows slightly before calling out, “Aiko? Chikako…?” in a whispering tone.

Without rising from her positions, Aiko and Chikako simultaneously bowed their heads, answering, “Welcome back, Nobunaga-sama…” in soft tones. This caused Aiko’s massive breasts to stress the fabric of her kimono, and, though Chikako’s were relatively modest, the fact she was still wearing transparent mesh clothing made it difficult not to notice the two cherry-pink buds poking against the fabric…

Tearing his eyes away from the two girls’ assets, Nobu questioned, “What are the two of you doing here…?” despite recollecting that Yuriko mentioned having someone replace her.

Raising her head, Aiko adopted a mature and subtly seductive smile as she explained, “We changed positions with Yuriko and Ayane. Chikako will be keeping an eye on things from the shadows while I will guard the outside of your room.”

Blinking in surprise, Nobu asked, “Wait? Ayane? The slow-talking girl with light brown hair? She was here…?”

Nodding her head, Aiko explained, “It would be counterintuitive to only have one person guarding our Lord at any given moment. If something were to happen, there would be no one to protect you while the other delays, distracts, or eliminates the enemy.”

“Right…well…tell her she needs to check in with me when she goes on duty…I’d like to know who is watching over me and when…”

Bowing her head in response, Aiko adopted an audibly reverential tone as she replied, “Understood, Nobunaga-sama. Once my shift has ended, I will be sure to inform Ayane and everyone else of your wisdom and intent.”

Though he couldn’t help feeling a little uncomfortable, Nobu resisted the urge to tell Aiko to cut it out and relax. He had spent nearly two hours organizing his thoughts before he finally fell asleep and the conclusion he had come to was that it was impossible to change their way of thinking in such a short period of time. They had spent eighteen years learning how to think and act in a very specific way, so, for the time being, he would just let them do their own thing while he focused on increasing his strength and getting his footing in a new world.

In the end, Nobu decided to just nod in response to Aiko’s words before saying, “Thanks. You’re doing a good job…” in a somewhat noncommittal tone. Then, before entering his room proper, he looked towards Yui and asked, “You coming inside or going to your own room? I might need you tomorrow so you need to get some rest…”

Surprised by the sudden invitation, a faint yet genuine smile developed across Yui’s face as she resisted the urge to say it would be her honor and instead simply replied, “I’d like to stay here…” in a far more sincere tone than the one she had used prior to being booted out…
