I Own A Brothel In Another World (Ch. 1-196)

Chapter 127 - Chief Executive ❤

After taming my laugh, I keep lovingly threading my fingers through Hecate's hair. She stares at me slightly from below with her multiple pitch-black eyes and the usual, completely neutral face. It would be nice to evoke any reaction from the silent spidergirl.

"So, you are always going to follow me around no matter what I say, aren't you?" I ask with a gentle smile.

She visibly hesitates before answering with either a nod or shake of her head as she is used to. Seeing her trouble, I scratch her head with some more love.

"Don't worry about your answers. You can always be honest with me. Always say what is on your mind. Well, rather than say, maybe show is the better word here."

Some more concern remains in Hecate's composed mind that I can feel through our shallow connection but it soon dissipates and she nods. Then, she nods once more, agreeing to my request and answering my earlier question.

"See? It wasn't that hard. I'm not going to punish you for speaking your mind. Now, if you do something that I wouldn't approve of, that might be a different topic, but it mostly refers to hurting or being aggressive towards our friends. I won't ever scold you for having your own thoughts and opinions. Do you understand?"

Finishing my explanation, I sit down on the carpet in the middle of the corridor and gesture at Hecate to do the same. She copies my cross-legged way of sitting after attempting to achieve the same result for a little bit and mirrors me shortly after managing to do exactly that.

Since we are already talking, we might as well do some more of it.

Hecate nods after setting herself on the floor too. I kind of envy her for having Sirgia-made underwear on herself as my balls start getting a little itchy from the slightly irritating surface of the carpet. To not sit opposite her with a raging boner pointing in an obvious direction, I use the neat feature of my powers to let the little guy rest for a moment.

"Alright. I just want to say that I guess I'm fine with you disobeying that particular request of not spying on me all the time since I can feel how seriously you take this responsibility. As much as it is okay, I hope that you can leave my side now and then whenever I have something for you to do."

After a few seconds of silence, I receive an adorable nod in response.

Alright. Time for the next step.

"Saying that, I would like you to use some of your free time to roam around the city. You are amazing at remaining undetected and your range of movements is no less incredible. In case anything happens, I'm sure that you would be the first one to arrive at the place of the issue after learning the layout a little bit. Can I ask you that?"

Bringing her slim hand to the middle of her chest, she makes a deep bow that even her spider legs follow and begins lifting herself up. I quickly grab her pale wrist and stop the eager spidergirl with a soft smile.

"I didn't mean immediately. You don't have to memorise the entire area in a day or night, alright?"

With my gentle pulling, she returns to the floor and I keep her slightly colder hand in mine, brushing over Hecate's pretty skin with my thumb.

"You like my warmth, right? Come closer. This is another thing. You can come and snuggle with me whenever you feel like it if I'm not doing anything important. Consider it your reward for always protecting me, yeah?"

Gazing into my eyes for a few seconds, she skilfully climbs into my lap and we end up in a lotus position since she doesn't turn around. Pecking the unobstructed part of her forehead, between the smallest pair of eyes, I hug her closely as her humanoid legs wrap around my waist. Hecate's small chest brushes against my warm skin as I stroke her soft back.
